Luke 7
1 When he had ended all his discourse in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
सुनिरहेका मानिसहरूलाई सबै कुरा भनेर सक्नुभएपछि येशू कफर्नहुममा प्रवेश गर्नुभयो ।
2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die.
एउटा कप्तानको दास जो उनका लागि अति नै महत्त्वपूर्ण थियो, ऊ साह्रै बिरामी भएर मर्नै आँटेको थियो ।
3 And having heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, and besought him to come and save his servant.
तर उनले येशूको बारेमा सुनेको हुनाले कप्तानले यहूदीहरूका धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई येशूकहाँ गएर उहाँ आएर आफ्नो दासलाई मर्नदेखि बचाइ दिनुहोस् भनी पठायो ।
4 And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldst do this for him;
जब तिनीहरू येशूको नजिक आए, तब तिनीहरूले उहाँसँग यसो भन्दै बिन्ती गरे, तिनी योग्यका छन् यो तिनका निम्ति तपाईंले गरिदिनुहोस् ।
5 for he loveth our nation, and himself built the synagogue for us.
किनकि उनले हाम्रा जातिहरूलाई प्रेम गर्छन् र उनी तिनै नै हुन् जसले हाम्रा लागि सभाघर पनि निर्माण गरिदिएका छन् ।”
6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying, Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof;
त्यसैले, येशू तिनीहरूसँगै सरासर बाटो लाग्नुभयो । तर उहाँ घरबाट धेरै टाढा नहुँदै कप्तानले साथीहरू पठाएर उहाँलाई यसो भन्न लगाए, “प्रभु तपाईंले आफैँलाई दुःख नदिनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईं मेरो घरभित्र प्रवेश गर्न योग्यको छैनँ ।
7 on which account I did not think myself worthy to come to thee; but command with a word, and let my servant be healed.
यही कारणले मैले आफैँलाई तपाईंकहाँ आउने प्रर्याप्त योग्यको ठानिनँ, तर वचन बोली दिनुहोस् र मेरो दास निको हुनेछ ।
8 For even I am a man set under authority, having soldiers under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
किनकि म पनि एउटा अधिकार पाएको मानिस हुँ र मेरोमुनि सिपाहीहरू छन् । मैले एउटलाई जा भन्छु र त्यो जान्छ र अर्कोलाई आइज भन्छु र त्यो आउँछ र मेरो दासलाई ‘यसो गर भन्छु, ‘त्यसले त्यो गर्छ ।”
9 And Jesus hearing this, wondered at him; and turning round said to the multitude that followed him, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found such faith.
जब येशूले त्यो सुन्नुभयो, उहाँ अचम्मित हुनुभयो र भिडतिर फर्केर उनलाई देखाउँदै भन्नुभयो, “म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि इस्राएलमा पनि मैले कसैमा यस्तो विश्वास भेट्टाएको छैन ।”
10 And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.
तब ती पठाइएका मानिसहरू घरमा फर्केर आए र दासलाई स्वस्थ अवस्थामा भेट्टाए ।
11 And it came to pass the day after, that he was going to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples were with him, and a great multitude.
त्यसको केही समयपछि येशू नाइन भन्ने सहरमा यात्रा गरिरहनुभएको थियो । मानिसहरूको एउटा ठुलो भिडसँगै उहाँका चेलाहरू पनि उहाँसँगै थिए ।
12 And as he came near the gate of the city, lo! there was carried out dead an only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a great multitude from the city was with her.
जब उहाँ सहरको मूल ढोकानजिक पुग्नुभयो, त्यहाँ एउटा मृत मानिसलाई बोकेर ल्याइएको थियो । त्यो उसकी आमाको एक मात्र छोरो थियो । तिनी एउटी विधवा थिइन् र सहरबाट आएको एउटा भिड तिनीसँगै थियो ।
13 And when the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not.
तिनलाई देखेर प्रभु तिनीप्रति अति नै दयाले भरिनुभयो र तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “नरोऊ ।”
14 And he came up, and touched the bier; and they who bore it stood still; and he said, Young man, I say to thee, Rise.
तब उहाँ अगाडि आउनुभयो र मृतकलाई छुनुभयो र शरीरलाई बोक्नेहरू टक्क अडिए । उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “जवान मानिस, म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, उठ ।”
15 And he that was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
मृत मानिस उठ्यो र बोल्न थाल्यो । तब येशूले उसलाई उसकी आमालाई सुम्पनुभयो ।
16 And fear seized on all, and they gave glory to God, saying, A great prophet hath risen up among us; and, God hath visited his people.
तब तिनीहरू सबै डराए । तिनीहरूले यसो भन्दै परमेश्वरको प्रशंसा गरिरहे, “हाम्रा बिचमा एउटा महान् अगमवक्ता खडा भएका छन् र परमेश्वरले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई हेर्नुभएको छ ।”
17 And this report about him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the neighboring country.
येशूले गर्नुभएका यस कार्यको खबर सारा यहूदियाभरि र सबै छिमेकी इलाकाहरूमा चारैतिर फैलियो ।
18 And the disciples of John told him all these things.
यूहन्नाका चेलाहरूले उहाँलाई यी सबै कुराहरूको बारेमा बताइदिए ।
19 And calling to him two of his disciples, John sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?
तब यूहन्नाले आफ्ना दुई जना चेलाहरूलाई बोलाएर प्रभुकहाँ यसो भनी पठाए, “के हामीले खोजी राखेको आउनेवाला व्यक्ति तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ वा अर्को कुनै छ?
20 And the men came to him and said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?
जब तिनीहरू येशूको नजिक गए, तब तिनीहरूले यसो भने, बप्तिस्मा-दिने यूहन्नाले हामीलाई तपाईंकहाँ यसो भनी पठाए, “के हामीले खोजी राखेको आउनेवाला व्यक्ति तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ वा अर्को कुनै छ?”
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many who were blind he gave sight.
त्यस घडीमा उहाँले धेरै मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका रोग, दुःखकष्ट र दुष्टात्माबाट निको पार्नुभयो र उहाँले धेरै दृष्टिविहीन मानिसहरूलाई देख्न सक्ने क्षमता दिनुभयो ।
22 And he answered and said to them, Go and tell John what ye have seen and heard; that the blind receive sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor good tidings are brought;
येशूले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिएर भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरू आफ्नो बाटो लागिसकेपछि तिमीहरूले जे सुनेका र देखेका छौ, सो यूहन्नालाई बताइदेओ । दृष्टिविहीनहरूले दृष्टि पाइराखेका छन्, लङ्गडाहरू हिँडिराखेका छन्, कुष्ठरोगीहरू शुद्ध भइराखेका छन्, कान नसुन्नेहरूले सुनिराखेका छन्, मृतकहरू जीवित भइराखेका छन् र आवश्यकतामा परेका मानिसहरूलाई सुसमाचार सुनाइएको छ ।
23 and blessed is he, whoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.
मेरो क्रियाकलापको कारणले मलाई विश्वास गर्न नछोड्ने त्यो मानिस धन्यको हो ।
24 And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What have ye gone out into the wilderness to see? the reeds shaken by the wind?
यूहन्नाका समाचार वाहकहरू गइसकेपछि येशूले भिडहरूलाई यूहन्नाको बारेमा बताउन थाल्नुभयो, “तिमी उजाड-स्थानमा के हेर्नलाई गयौ, के बतासले हल्लाइराखेको निगालोलाई?
25 But what have ye gone out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Lo! they who wear gorgeous apparel, and live luxuriously, are in kings' palaces.
तर के हेर्नलाई तिमी गयौ, मलमलको कपडा लगाएको एउटा मानिसलाई? हेर, राम्रा सुन्दर कपडा लगाएका मानिसहरू राजाका दरबारमा भोगविलाससाथ जिउँछन् ।
26 But what have ye gone out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
तर के हेर्नलाई तिमीहरू बाहिर गयौ, एउटा अगमवक्तालाई? हो, म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, र एउटा अगमवक्ताभन्दा पनि महान् यहाँ छ ।
27 This is he of whom it is written, “Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.”
यो जसको बारेमा लेखिएको छ, हेर, म मेरा सन्देशवाहकलाई तिम्रो अगि-अगि पठाउँदै छु ।
28 I say to you, Among those born of women there is no greater prophet than John; but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, स्त्रीहरूबाट जन्मेकाहरूमध्येमा, बप्तिस्मा-दिने यूहन्नाभन्दा महान् कोही छैन, तापनि परमेश्वरको राज्यमा सबभन्दा कम महत्त्वको मानिस पनि उनीभन्दा महान् हुन्छ ।”
29 And all the people when they heard him, and the publicans, acknowledged God as righteous by being baptized with the baptism of John.
जब सबै मानिसहरूले यो सुने, तब कर उठाउनेहरूसमेत, तिनीहरूले यो घोषणा गरे कि परमेश्वर धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ, जसले बप्तिस्मा-दिने यूहन्नासँगै बप्तिस्मा लिएका थिए ।
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.
तर फरिसीहरू र यहूदीहरूका व्यवस्थाका पण्डितहरू, जसले उनीबाट बप्तिस्मा लिएका थिएनन्, तिनीहरू आफैँले आफ्ना निम्ति परमेश्वरको बुद्धिलाई इन्कार गरे ।
31 To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?
यस पुस्ताका मानिसहरूलाई मैले केसित तुलना गरूँ? तिनीहरू केजस्ता छन्?
32 They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another, saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance; we sung a dirge, and ye did not weep.
तिनीहरू बजार क्षेत्रमा खेलिरहने बालबालिकाहरूजस्ता छन्, जो बस्दछन् र एक अर्कोलाई यसो भन्दै बोलाउँछन्, “हामीले तिमीहरूका लागि बाँसुरी बजायौँ, तर तिमीहरू नाचेनौ । हामीले विलाप गर्यौँ, तर तिमीहरू रोएनौ ।”
33 For John the Baptist hath come not eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
किनकि बप्तिस्मा-दिने यूहन्ना न रोटी खाँदै आए न त दाखमद्य नै पिउदै आए र पनि तिमीहरू भन्छौ कि उसलाई भूत लागेको छ ।
34 The Son of man hath come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a glutton and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
मानिसका पुत्र खाँदै र पिउँदै आए र तिमीहरू भन्छौ, “हेर, ऊ त एउटा घिचुवा र पियक्कड मानिस, कर उठाउने र पापीहरूका मित्र हो ।”
35 But wisdom is acknowledged by all her children.
तर बुद्धि तिनका सबै सन्तानहरूद्वारा प्रमाणित हुन्छ ।”
36 And one of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him; and he went into the Pharisee's house, and reclined at the table.
अहिले एक जना फरिसीले येशूलाई ऊसँग भोजन गर्नका लागि अनुरोध गरिरहेको थियो । त्यसपछि येशू फरिसीको घरमा प्रवेश गर्नुभयो, भोजन खानलाई टेबुलमा गएर बस्नुभयो ।
37 And lo! a woman who was in the city, a sinner, learning that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster-bottle of ointment,
हेर, त्यस सहरमा एउटी स्त्री थिइन् जो पापी थिइन्, तिनले पत्ता लगाइन् कि उहाँ फरिसीको घरमा बस्नुभएको छ र तिनले सिङ्गमरमरको बोतलमा अत्तर ल्याइन् ।
38 and standing behind at his feet, weeping, began to wet his feet with tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
तिनी उहाँका पाउको नजिक पछाडिपट्टि उभिइन् र रोइन् । तब तिनले उहाँको पाउ आफ्ना आँसुले भिजाउन थालिन् र टाउकाको कपालले उहाँका पाउ पुछिन्, उहाँका पाउमा म्वाइ खाइन् र पाउमा अत्तर घसिन् ।
39 And the Pharisee who had invited him, when he saw this, said within himself, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who, and what sort of woman, this is that toucheth him; for she is a sinner.
जब येशूलाई बोलाउने फरिसीले यो देख्यो, तब उसले आफूले विचार गर्दै भन्यो, “यदि यी मानिस एउटा अगमवक्ता भएको भए, तब उनले जान्ने थिए कि को र कस्ती प्रकारकी स्त्रीले उहाँलाई छोइरहेकी छे र त्यो एउटी पापी स्त्री हो भनेर ।”
40 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on.
येशूले जवाफ दिएर उसलाई भन्नुभयो, “सिमोन मैले तिमीलाई केही भन्नु छ ।” उसले भन्यो, “गुरुज्यू, भन्नुहोस् ।”
41 A certain money-lender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty.
येशूले भन्नुभयो, “दुई जना मानिसले एक जना साहुबाट ऋण लिएका थिए । एउटाले पाँच सय दिनार ऋण, र अर्कोले पचास दिनार ऋण लिएको रहेछ ।
42 When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most?
तिनीहरूसँग तिर्ने नभएकोले साहुले ती दुवै जनालाई माफ गरिदिए । त्यसकारण, तिनीहरूमध्ये कुनचाहिँले उनलाई बढी प्रेम गर्नेछ?”
43 Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly.
सिमोनले उहाँलाई जवाफ दिए र भने, “म विचार गर्छु कि जसलाई उनले बढी माफ गरे । येशूले उसलाई भन्नुभयो तिमीले ठिकसित न्याय गर्यौ ।”
44 And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered thy house, no water didst thou give me for my feet; but she wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.
येशू स्त्रीतिर फर्केर सिमोनलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमी यो स्त्रीलाई देख्दछौ । म तिम्रो घरभित्र प्रवेश गरेँ । तिमीले मेरो पाउ धुनलाई पानीसम्म दिएनौँ, तर तिनले त आफ्नो आँसुले मेरा पाउ भिजाइन्, र कपालले मेरा पाउ पुछिन् ।
45 No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet.
तिमीले मलाई म्वाइँ खाएनौ, तर तिनले म यहाँभित्र पसेको समयदेखि मेरा पाउमा म्वाइँ खान छोडेकी छैनन् ।
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment.
तिमीले मेरो शिर तेलले अभिषेक गरेनौ, तर तिनले मेरा पाउमा अत्तर घसिन् ।
47 Wherefore, I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loveth little.
यो घटनाको कारणले म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, कि जसका धेरै पाप थिए र बढी क्षमा गरिएको छ, तिनले धेरै प्रेम गरेकी छन् । तर जसलाई थोरै मात्र क्षमा गरिएको छ, उसले थोरै नै मात्र प्रेम गर्छ ।”
48 And he said to her, Thy sins have been forgiven.
तब उहाँले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिम्रा पापहरू क्षमा भएका छन् ।”
49 And those who were at table with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?
त्यहाँ एकसाथ बसिरहेकाहरूले एक-अर्कामा भन्न थाले, ‘पाप क्षमा गर्ने यी को हुन् र?‘
50 But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
तब येशूले स्त्रीलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिम्रो विश्वासले तिमीलाई बचाएको छ, शान्तिसँग जाऊ ।”
