John 3
1 And there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
nikadimanAmA yihUdIyAnAm adhipatiH phirUzI kSaNadAyAM
2 This man came to him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou hast come as a teacher from God; for no one can do these signs which thou doest, unless God be with him.
yIzaurabhyarNam Avrajya vyAhArSIt, he guro bhavAn IzvarAd Agat eka upadeSTA, etad asmAbhirjJAyate; yato bhavatA yAnyAzcaryyakarmmANi kriyante paramezvarasya sAhAyyaM vinA kenApi tattatkarmmANi karttuM na zakyante|
3 Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
tadA yIzuruttaraM dattavAn tavAhaM yathArthataraM vyAharAmi punarjanmani na sati kopi mAnava Izvarasya rAjyaM draSTuM na zaknoti|
4 Nicodemus saith to him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb a second time, and be born?
tato nikadImaH pratyavocat manujo vRddho bhUtvA kathaM janiSyate? sa kiM puna rmAtRrjaTharaM pravizya janituM zaknoti?
5 Jesus answered, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.
yIzuravAdId yathArthataram ahaM kathayAmi manuje toyAtmabhyAM puna rna jAte sa Izvarasya rAjyaM praveSTuM na zaknoti|
6 That which is born of the flesh, is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit, is spirit.
mAMsAd yat jAyate tan mAMsameva tathAtmano yo jAyate sa Atmaiva|
7 Marvel not that I said to thee, Ye must be born again.
yuSmAbhiH puna rjanitavyaM mamaitasyAM kathAyAm AzcaryaM mA maMsthAH|
8 The wind bloweth where it will; and thou hearest the sound thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
sadAgatiryAM dizamicchati tasyAmeva dizi vAti, tvaM tasya svanaM zuNoSi kintu sa kuta AyAti kutra yAti vA kimapi na jAnAsi tadvAd AtmanaH sakAzAt sarvveSAM manujAnAM janma bhavati|
9 Nicodemus answered and said to him, How can these things be?
tadA nikadImaH pRSTavAn etat kathaM bhavituM zaknoti?
10 Jesus answered and said to him, Art thou the teacher of Israel, and understandest not these things?
yIzuH pratyaktavAn tvamisrAyelo gururbhUtvApi kimetAM kathAM na vetsi?
11 Truly, truly do I say to thee, We speak that which we know, and testify that which we have seen; and ye receive not our testimony.
tubhyaM yathArthaM kathayAmi, vayaM yad vidmastad vacmaH yaMcca pazyAmastasyaiva sAkSyaM dadmaH kintu yuSmAbhirasmAkaM sAkSitvaM na gRhyate|
12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how will ye believe if I tell you heavenly things?
etasya saMsArasya kathAyAM kathitAyAM yadi yUyaM na vizvasitha tarhi svargIyAyAM kathAyAM kathaM vizvasiSyatha?
13 And no one hath ascended into heaven, but he who came down from heaven, even the Son of man.
yaH svarge'sti yaM ca svargAd avArohat taM mAnavatanayaM vinA kopi svargaM nArohat|
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up
aparaJca mUsA yathA prAntare sarpaM protthApitavAn manuSyaputro'pi tathaivotthApitavyaH;
tasmAd yaH kazcit tasmin vizvasiSyati so'vinAzyaH san anantAyuH prApsyati| (aiōnios g166)
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave the only begotten Son, that every one who believeth in him may not perish, but may have everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
Izvara itthaM jagadadayata yat svamadvitIyaM tanayaM prAdadAt tato yaH kazcit tasmin vizvasiSyati so'vinAzyaH san anantAyuH prApsyati| (aiōnios g166)
17 For God sent not the Son into the world to condemn the world, but that through him the world might be saved.
Izvaro jagato lokAn daNDayituM svaputraM na preSya tAn paritrAtuM preSitavAn|
18 He that believeth in him is not condemned; he that believeth not hath already been condemned, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
ataeva yaH kazcit tasmin vizvasiti sa daNDArho na bhavati kintu yaH kazcit tasmin na vizvasiti sa idAnImeva daNDArho bhavati, yataH sa IzvarasyAdvitIyaputrasya nAmani pratyayaM na karoti|
19 And this is the condemnation, that the light hath come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their deeds were evil.
jagato madhye jyotiH prAkAzata kintu manuSyANAM karmmaNAM dRSTatvAt te jyotiSopi timire prIyante etadeva daNDasya kAraNAM bhavati|
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
yaH kukarmma karoti tasyAcArasya dRSTatvAt sa jyotirRRtIyitvA tannikaTaM nAyAti;
21 But he that doeth the truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
kintu yaH satkarmma karoti tasya sarvvANi karmmANIzvareNa kRtAnIti sathA prakAzate tadabhiprAyeNa sa jyotiSaH sannidhim AyAti|
22 After these things Jesus and his disciples came into the land of Judaea; and there he remained with them, and baptized.
tataH param yIzuH ziSyaiH sArddhaM yihUdIyadezaM gatvA tatra sthitvA majjayitum Arabhata|
23 And John also was baptizing in AEnon, near Salim, because there was much water there; and they came, and were baptized.
tadA zAlam nagarasya samIpasthAyini ainan grAme bahutaratoyasthitestatra yohan amajjayat tathA ca lokA Agatya tena majjitA abhavan|
24 For John was not yet thrown into prison.
tadA yohan kArAyAM na baddhaH|
25 Then there arose a question on the part of John's disciples with a Jew about purifying.
aparaJca zAcakarmmaNi yohAnaH ziSyaiH saha yihUdIyalokAnAM vivAde jAte, te yohanaH saMnnidhiM gatvAkathayan,
26 And they came to John, and said to him, Rabbi, he who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, he baptizeth, and all men are going to him.
he guro yarddananadyAH pAre bhavatA sArddhaM ya AsIt yasmiMzca bhavAn sAkSyaM pradadAt pazyatu sopi majjayati sarvve tasya samIpaM yAnti ca|
27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, unless it be given him from heaven.
tadA yohan pratyavocad IzvareNa na datte kopi manujaH kimapi prAptuM na zaknoti|
28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I was sent before that man.
ahaM abhiSikto na bhavAmi kintu tadagre preSitosmi yAmimAM kathAM kathitavAnAhaM tatra yUyaM sarvve sAkSiNaH stha|
29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. This my joy then hath become full.
yo janaH kanyAM labhate sa eva varaH kintu varasya sannidhau daNDAyamAnaM tasya yanmitraM tena varasya zabde zrute'tIvAhlAdyate mamApi tadvad AnandasiddhirjAtA|
30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
tena kramazo varddhitavyaM kintu mayA hsitavyaM|
31 He that cometh from above is above all. He that is from the earth is earthly, and speaketh earthly things; he that cometh from heaven
ya UrdhvAdAgacchat sa sarvveSAM mukhyo yazca saMsArAd udapadyata sa sAMsArikaH saMsArIyAM kathAJca kathayati yastu svargAdAgacchat sa sarvveSAM mukhyaH|
32 testifieth what he hath seen and heard; and no one receiveth his testimony.
sa yadapazyadazRNocca tasminneva sAkSyaM dadAti tathApi prAyazaH kazcit tasya sAkSyaM na gRhlAti;
33 He that hath received his testimony hath set his seal that God is true.
kintu yo gRhlAti sa Izvarasya satyavAditvaM mudrAGgitaM karoti|
34 For he whom God sent speaketh the words of God; for he giveth not the Spirit by measure.
IzvareNa yaH preritaH saeva IzvarIyakathAM kathayati yata Izvara AtmAnaM tasmai aparimitam adadAt|
35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
pitA putre snehaM kRtvA tasya haste sarvvANi samarpitavAn|
36 He that believeth in the Son hath everlasting life; and he that disobeyeth the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him. (aiōnios g166)
yaH kazcit putre vizvasiti sa evAnantam paramAyuH prApnoti kintu yaH kazcit putre na vizvasiti sa paramAyuSo darzanaM na prApnoti kintvIzvarasya kopabhAjanaM bhUtvA tiSThati| (aiōnios g166)
