Matthew 13
1 And in that day Jesus, having gone forth from the house, was sitting by the sea,
aparañca tasmin dinē yīśuḥ sadmanō gatvā saritpatē rōdhasi samupavivēśa|
2 and gathered together to Him were many multitudes, so that He having gone into the boat sat down, and all the multitude on the beach stood,
tatra tatsannidhau bahujanānāṁ nivahōpasthitēḥ sa taraṇimāruhya samupāviśat, tēna mānavā rōdhasi sthitavantaḥ|
3 and He spoke to them many things in allegories, saying, “Behold, the sower went forth to sow,
tadānīṁ sa dr̥ṣṭāntaistān itthaṁ bahuśa upadiṣṭavān| paśyata, kaścit kr̥ṣīvalō bījāni vaptuṁ bahirjagāma,
4 and in his sowing, some indeed fell by the way, and the birds having come, devoured them,
tasya vapanakālē katipayabījēṣu mārgapārśvē patitēṣu vihagāstāni bhakṣitavantaḥ|
5 and others fell on the rocky places where they did not have much earth, and immediately they sprang forth, through having no depth of earth,
aparaṁ katipayabījēṣu stōkamr̥dyuktapāṣāṇē patitēṣu mr̥dalpatvāt tatkṣaṇāt tānyaṅkuritāni,
6 and the sun having risen they were scorched, and through having no root, they withered,
kintu ravāvuditē dagdhāni tēṣāṁ mūlāpraviṣṭatvāt śuṣkatāṁ gatāni ca|
7 and others fell on the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them,
aparaṁ katipayabījēṣu kaṇṭakānāṁ madhyē patitēṣu kaṇṭakānyēdhitvā tāni jagrasuḥ|
8 and others fell on the good ground, and were giving fruit, some indeed a hundredfold, and some sixty, and some thirty.
aparañca katipayabījāni urvvarāyāṁ patitāni; tēṣāṁ madhyē kānicit śataguṇāni kānicit ṣaṣṭiguṇāni kānicit triṁśaguṁṇāni phalāni phalitavanti|
9 He who is having ears to hear—let him hear.”
śrōtuṁ yasya śrutī āsātē sa śr̥ṇuyāt|
10 And the disciples having come near, said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in allegories?”
anantaraṁ śiṣyairāgatya sō'pr̥cchyata, bhavatā tēbhyaḥ kutō dr̥ṣṭāntakathā kathyatē?
11 And He answering said to them that, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of the heavens, and to these it has not been given,
tataḥ sa pratyavadat, svargarājyasya nigūḍhāṁ kathāṁ vēdituṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ sāmarthyamadāyi, kintu tēbhyō nādāyi|
12 for whoever has, it will be given to him, and he will have overabundance, and whoever has not, even that which he has will be taken from him.
yasmād yasyāntikē varddhatē, tasmāyēva dāyiṣyatē, tasmāt tasya bāhulyaṁ bhaviṣyati, kintu yasyāntikē na varddhatē, tasya yat kiñcanāstē, tadapi tasmād ādāyiṣyatē|
13 Because of this, in allegories I speak to them, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor understand,
tē paśyantōpi na paśyanti, śr̥ṇvantōpi na śr̥ṇvanti, budhyamānā api na budhyantē ca, tasmāt tēbhyō dr̥ṣṭāntakathā kathyatē|
14 and fulfilled on them is the prophecy of Isaiah that says, With hearing you will hear, and you will not understand, and seeing you will see, and you will not perceive,
yathā karṇaiḥ śrōṣyatha yūyaṁ vai kintu yūyaṁ na bhōtsyatha| nētrairdrakṣyatha yūyañca parijñātuṁ na śakṣyatha| tē mānuṣā yathā naiva paripaśyanti lōcanaiḥ| karṇai ryathā na śr̥ṇvanti na budhyantē ca mānasaiḥ| vyāvarttitēṣu cittēṣu kālē kutrāpi tairjanaiḥ| mattastē manujāḥ svasthā yathā naiva bhavanti ca| tathā tēṣāṁ manuṣyāṇāṁ kriyantē sthūlabuddhayaḥ| badhirībhūtakarṇāśca jātāśca mudritā dr̥śaḥ|
15 for the heart of this people was made obtuse, and with the ears they barely heard, and they closed their eyes, lest they might see with the eyes, and might hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and turn back, and I might heal them.
yadētāni vacanāni yiśayiyabhaviṣyadvādinā prōktāni tēṣu tāni phalanti|
16 And blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear,
kintu yuṣmākaṁ nayanāni dhanyāni, yasmāt tāni vīkṣantē; dhanyāśca yuṣmākaṁ śabdagrahāḥ, yasmāt tairākarṇyatē|
17 for truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see that which you look on, and they did not see, and to hear that which you hear, and they did not hear.
mayā yūyaṁ tathyaṁ vacāmi yuṣmābhi ryadyad vīkṣyatē, tad bahavō bhaviṣyadvādinō dhārmmikāśca mānavā didr̥kṣantōpi draṣṭuṁ nālabhanta, punaśca yūyaṁ yadyat śr̥ṇutha, tat tē śuśrūṣamāṇā api śrōtuṁ nālabhanta|
18 You, therefore, hear the allegory of the sower:
kr̥ṣīvalīyadr̥ṣṭāntasyārthaṁ śr̥ṇuta|
19 Everyone hearing the word of the kingdom, and not understanding—the evil one comes, and snatches that which has been sown in his heart; this is that sown by the way.
mārgapārśvē bījānyuptāni tasyārtha ēṣaḥ, yadā kaścit rājyasya kathāṁ niśamya na budhyatē, tadā pāpātmāgatya tadīyamanasa uptāṁ kathāṁ haran nayati|
20 And that sown on the rocky places, this is he who is hearing the word, and immediately with joy is receiving it,
aparaṁ pāṣāṇasthalē bījānyuptāni tasyārtha ēṣaḥ; kaścit kathāṁ śrutvaiva harṣacittēna gr̥hlāti,
21 and he has no root in himself, but is temporary, and persecution or tribulation having happened because of the word, immediately he is stumbled.
kintu tasya manasi mūlāpraviṣṭatvāt sa kiñcitkālamātraṁ sthirastiṣṭhati; paścāta tatkathākāraṇāt kōpi klēstāḍanā vā cēt jāyatē, tarhi sa tatkṣaṇād vighnamēti|
22 And that sown toward the thorns, this is he who is hearing the word, and the anxiety of this age, and the deceitfulness of the riches, chokes the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
aparaṁ kaṇṭakānāṁ madhyē bījānyuptāni tadartha ēṣaḥ; kēnacit kathāyāṁ śrutāyāṁ sāṁsārikacintābhi rbhrāntibhiśca sā grasyatē, tēna sā mā viphalā bhavati| (aiōn g165)
23 And that sown on the good ground: this is he who is hearing the word, and is understanding, who indeed bears fruit, and makes, some indeed a hundredfold, and some sixty, and some thirty.”
aparam urvvarāyāṁ bījānyuptāni tadartha ēṣaḥ; yē tāṁ kathāṁ śrutvā vudhyantē, tē phalitāḥ santaḥ kēcit śataguṇāni kēcita ṣaṣṭiguṇāni kēcicca triṁśadguṇāni phalāni janayanti|
24 Another allegory He set before them, saying, “The kingdom of the heavens was likened to a man sowing good seed in his field,
anantaraṁ sōparāmēkāṁ dr̥ṣṭāntakathāmupasthāpya tēbhyaḥ kathayāmāsa; svargīyarājyaṁ tādr̥śēna kēnacid gr̥hasthēnōpamīyatē, yēna svīyakṣētrē praśastabījānyaupyanta|
25 and while men are sleeping, his enemy came and sowed darnel in the midst of the wheat, and went away,
kintu kṣaṇadāyāṁ sakalalōkēṣu suptēṣu tasya ripurāgatya tēṣāṁ gōdhūmabījānāṁ madhyē vanyayavamabījānyuptvā vavrāja|
26 and when the herb sprang up, and yielded fruit, then appeared also the darnel.
tatō yadā bījēbhyō'ṅkarā jāyamānāḥ kaṇiśāni ghr̥tavantaḥ; tadā vanyayavasānyapi dr̥śyamānānyabhavan|
27 And the servants of the householder, having come near, said to him, Lord, did you not sow good seed in your field? From where then does it have the darnel?
tatō gr̥hasthasya dāsēyā āgamya tasmai kathayāñcakruḥ, hē mahēccha, bhavatā kiṁ kṣētrē bhadrabījāni naupyanta? tathātvē vanyayavasāni kr̥ta āyan?
28 And he says to them, A man, an enemy, did this; and the servants said to him, Will you, then, [that] having gone away we may gather it up?
tadānīṁ tēna tē pratigaditāḥ, kēnacit ripuṇā karmmadamakāri| dāsēyāḥ kathayāmāsuḥ, vayaṁ gatvā tānyutpāyya kṣipāmō bhavataḥ kīdr̥śīcchā jāyatē?
29 And he said, No, lest—gathering up the darnel—you root up with it the wheat;
tēnāvādi, nahi, śaṅkē'haṁ vanyayavasōtpāṭanakālē yuṣmābhistaiḥ sākaṁ gōdhūmā apyutpāṭiṣyantē|
30 permit both to grow together until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather up first the darnel, and bind it in bundles, to burn it, and the wheat gather up into my storehouse.”
ataḥ śsyakarttanakālaṁ yāvad ubhayānyapi saha varddhantāṁ, paścāt karttanakālē karttakān vakṣyāmi, yūyamādau vanyayavasāni saṁgr̥hya dāhayituṁ vīṭikā badvvā sthāpayata; kintu sarvvē gōdhūmā yuṣmābhi rbhāṇḍāgāraṁ nītvā sthāpyantām|
31 Another allegory He set before them, saying, “The kingdom of the heavens is like to a grain of mustard, which a man having taken, sowed in his field,
anantaraṁ sōparāmēkāṁ dr̥ṣṭāntakathāmutthāpya tēbhyaḥ kathitavān kaścinmanujaḥ sarṣapabījamēkaṁ nītvā svakṣētra uvāpa|
32 which less, indeed, is than all the seeds, but when it may be grown, is greatest of the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the sky come and rest in its branches.”
sarṣapabījaṁ sarvvasmād bījāt kṣudramapi sadaṅkuritaṁ sarvvasmāt śākāt br̥had bhavati; sa tādr̥śastaru rbhavati, yasya śākhāsu nabhasaḥ khagā āgatya nivasanti; svargīyarājyaṁ tādr̥śasya sarṣapaikasya samam|
33 Another allegory He spoke to them: “The kingdom of the heavens is like to leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened.”
punarapi sa upamākathāmēkāṁ tēbhyaḥ kathayāñcakāra; kācana yōṣit yat kiṇvamādāya drōṇatrayamitagōdhūmacūrṇānāṁ madhyē sarvvēṣāṁ miśrībhavanaparyyantaṁ samācchādya nidhattavatī, tatkiṇvamiva svargarājyaṁ|
34 All these things Jesus spoke in allegories to the multitudes, and without an allegory He was not speaking to them,
itthaṁ yīśu rmanujanivahānāṁ sannidhāvupamākathābhirētānyākhyānāni kathitavān upamāṁ vinā tēbhyaḥ kimapi kathāṁ nākathayat|
35 that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through the prophet, saying, “I will open in allegories My mouth, I will utter things having been hidden from the foundation of the world.”
ētēna dr̥ṣṭāntīyēna vākyēna vyādāya vadanaṁ nijaṁ| ahaṁ prakāśayiṣyāmi guptavākyaṁ purābhavaṁ| yadētadvacanaṁ bhaviṣyadvādinā prōktamāsīt, tat siddhamabhavat|
36 Then having let away the multitudes, Jesus came into the house, and His disciples came near to Him, saying, “Explain to us the allegory of the darnel of the field.”
sarvvān manujān visr̥jya yīśau gr̥haṁ praviṣṭē tacchiṣyā āgatya yīśavē kathitavantaḥ, kṣētrasya vanyayavasīyadr̥ṣṭāntakathām bhavāna asmān spaṣṭīkr̥tya vadatu|
37 And He answering said to them, “He who is sowing the good seed is the Son of Man,
tataḥ sa pratyuvāca, yēna bhadrabījānyupyantē sa manujaputraḥ,
38 and the field is the world, and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom, and the darnel are the sons of the evil one,
kṣētraṁ jagat, bhadrabījānī rājyasya santānāḥ,
39 and the enemy who sowed them is the Devil, and the harvest is [the] full end of the age, and the reapers are messengers. (aiōn g165)
vanyayavasāni pāpātmanaḥ santānāḥ| yēna ripuṇā tānyuptāni sa śayatānaḥ, karttanasamayaśca jagataḥ śēṣaḥ, karttakāḥ svargīyadūtāḥ| (aiōn g165)
40 As, then, the darnel is gathered up, and is burned with fire, so will it be in the full end of this age; (aiōn g165)
yathā vanyayavasāni saṁgr̥hya dāhyantē, tathā jagataḥ śēṣē bhaviṣyati; (aiōn g165)
41 the Son of Man will send forth His messengers, and they will gather up out of His kingdom all the stumbling-blocks, and those doing the lawlessness,
arthāt manujasutaḥ svāṁyadūtān prēṣayiṣyati, tēna tē ca tasya rājyāt sarvvān vighnakāriṇō'dhārmmikalōkāṁśca saṁgr̥hya
42 and will cast them into the furnace of the fire; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.
yatra rōdanaṁ dantagharṣaṇañca bhavati, tatrāgnikuṇḍē nikṣēpsyanti|
43 Then will the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who is having ears to hear—let him hear.
tadānīṁ dhārmmikalōkāḥ svēṣāṁ pitū rājyē bhāskara̮iva tējasvinō bhaviṣyanti| śrōtuṁ yasya śrutī āsātē, ma śr̥ṇuyāt|
44 Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to treasure hid in the field, which a man having found, hid, and from his joy goes, and all, as much as he has, he sells, and buys that field.
aparañca kṣētramadhyē nidhiṁ paśyan yō gōpayati, tataḥ paraṁ sānandō gatvā svīyasarvvasvaṁ vikrīya ttakṣētraṁ krīṇāti, sa iva svargarājyaṁ|
45 Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a man, a merchant, seeking good pearls,
anyañca yō vaṇik uttamāṁ muktāṁ gavēṣayan
46 who having found one pearl of great price, having gone away, has sold all, as much as he had, and bought it.
mahārghāṁ muktāṁ vilōkya nijasarvvasvaṁ vikrīya tāṁ krīṇāti, sa iva svargarājyaṁ|
47 Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a net that was cast into the sea, and gathered together of every kind,
punaśca samudrō nikṣiptaḥ sarvvaprakāramīnasaṁgrāhyānāya̮iva svargarājyaṁ|
48 which, when it was filled, having drawn up again on the beach, and having sat down, they gathered the good into vessels, and the bad they cast out,
tasmin ānāyē pūrṇē janā yathā rōdhasyuttōlya samupaviśya praśastamīnān saṁgrahya bhājanēṣu nidadhatē, kutsitān nikṣipanti;
49 so will it be in the full end of the age, the messengers will come forth and separate the evil out of the midst of the righteous, (aiōn g165)
tathaiva jagataḥ śēṣē bhaviṣyati, phalataḥ svargīyadūtā āgatya puṇyavajjanānāṁ madhyāt pāpinaḥ pr̥thak kr̥tvā vahnikuṇḍē nikṣēpsyanti, (aiōn g165)
50 and will cast them into the furnace of the fire; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.”
tatra rōdanaṁ dantai rdantagharṣaṇañca bhaviṣyataḥ|
51 Jesus says to them, “Did you understand all these?” They say to Him, “Yes, Lord.”
yīśunā tē pr̥ṣṭā yuṣmābhiḥ kimētānyākhyānānyabudhyanta? tadā tē pratyavadan, satyaṁ prabhō|
52 And He said to them, “Because of this, every scribe having been discipled in regard to the kingdom of the heavens is like to a man, a householder, who brings forth out of his treasure things new and old.”
tadānīṁ sa kathitavān, nijabhāṇḍāgārāt navīnapurātanāni vastūni nirgamayati yō gr̥hasthaḥ sa iva svargarājyamadhi śikṣitāḥ svarva upadēṣṭāraḥ|
53 And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these allegories, He removed from there,
anantaraṁ yīśurētāḥ sarvvā dr̥ṣṭāntakathāḥ samāpya tasmāt sthānāt pratasthē| aparaṁ svadēśamāgatya janān bhajanabhavana upadiṣṭavān;
54 and having come to His own country, He was teaching them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and were saying, “From where to this One this wisdom and the mighty works?
tē vismayaṁ gatvā kathitavanta ētasyaitādr̥śaṁ jñānam āścaryyaṁ karmma ca kasmād ajāyata?
55 Is this not the carpenter’s Son? Is His mother not called Mary, and His brothers James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
kimayaṁ sūtradhārasya putrō nahi? ētasya mātu rnāma ca kiṁ mariyam nahi? yākub-yūṣaph-śimōn-yihūdāśca kimētasya bhrātarō nahi?
56 And His sisters—are they not all with us? From where, then, to this One all these?”
ētasya bhaginyaśca kimasmākaṁ madhyē na santi? tarhi kasmādayamētāni labdhavān? itthaṁ sa tēṣāṁ vighnarūpō babhūva;
57 And they were stumbled at Him. And Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, and in his own house”:
tatō yīśunā nigaditaṁ svadēśīyajanānāṁ madhyaṁ vinā bhaviṣyadvādī kutrāpyanyatra nāsammānyō bhavatī|
58 and He did not do many mighty works there, because of their unbelief.
tēṣāmaviśvāsahētōḥ sa tatra sthānē bahvāścaryyakarmmāṇi na kr̥tavān|
