< Luke 7 >
1 When he had ended all his discourse in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
tataḥ paraṁ sa lōkānāṁ karṇagōcarē tān sarvvān upadēśān samāpya yadā kapharnāhūmpuraṁ praviśati
2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die.
tadā śatasēnāpatēḥ priyadāsa ēkō mr̥takalpaḥ pīḍita āsīt|
3 And having heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, and besought him to come and save his servant.
ataḥ sēnāpati ryīśō rvārttāṁ niśamya dāsasyārōgyakaraṇāya tasyāgamanārthaṁ vinayakaraṇāya yihūdīyān kiyataḥ prācaḥ prēṣayāmāsa|
4 And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldst do this for him;
tē yīśōrantikaṁ gatvā vinayātiśayaṁ vaktumārēbhirē, sa sēnāpati rbhavatōnugrahaṁ prāptum arhati|
5 for he loveth our nation, and himself built the synagogue for us.
yataḥ sōsmajjātīyēṣu lōkēṣu prīyatē tathāsmatkr̥tē bhajanagēhaṁ nirmmitavān|
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;
tasmād yīśustaiḥ saha gatvā nivēśanasya samīpaṁ prāpa, tadā sa śatasēnāpati rvakṣyamāṇavākyaṁ taṁ vaktuṁ bandhūn prāhiṇōt| hē prabhō svayaṁ śramō na karttavyō yad bhavatā madgēhamadhyē pādārpaṇaṁ kriyēta tadapyahaṁ nārhāmi,
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.
kiñcāhaṁ bhavatsamīpaṁ yātumapi nātmānaṁ yōgyaṁ buddhavān, tatō bhavān vākyamātraṁ vadatu tēnaiva mama dāsaḥ svasthō bhaviṣyati|
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.
yasmād ahaṁ parādhīnōpi mamādhīnā yāḥ sēnāḥ santi tāsām ēkajanaṁ prati yāhīti mayā prōktē sa yāti; tadanyaṁ prati āyāhīti prōktē sa āyāti; tathā nijadāsaṁ prati ētat kurvviti prōktē sa tadēva karōti|
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.
yīśuridaṁ vākyaṁ śrutvā vismayaṁ yayau, mukhaṁ parāvartya paścādvarttinō lōkān babhāṣē ca, yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi isrāyēlō vaṁśamadhyēpi viśvāsamīdr̥śaṁ na prāpnavaṁ|
10 And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.
tatastē prēṣitā gr̥haṁ gatvā taṁ pīḍitaṁ dāsaṁ svasthaṁ dadr̥śuḥ|
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.
parē'hani sa nāyīnākhyaṁ nagaraṁ jagāma tasyānēkē śiṣyā anyē ca lōkāstēna sārddhaṁ yayuḥ|
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.
tēṣu tannagarasya dvārasannidhiṁ prāptēṣu kiyantō lōkā ēkaṁ mr̥tamanujaṁ vahantō nagarasya bahiryānti, sa tanmāturēkaputrastanmātā ca vidhavā; tayā sārddhaṁ tannagarīyā bahavō lōkā āsan|
13 And when the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not.
prabhustāṁ vilōkya sānukampaḥ kathayāmāsa, mā rōdīḥ| sa samīpamitvā khaṭvāṁ pasparśa tasmād vāhakāḥ sthagitāstamyuḥ;
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.
tadā sa uvāca hē yuvamanuṣya tvamuttiṣṭha, tvāmaham ājñāpayāmi|
15 And he that was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
tasmāt sa mr̥tō janastatkṣaṇamutthāya kathāṁ prakathitaḥ; tatō yīśustasya mātari taṁ samarpayāmāsa|
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.
tasmāt sarvvē lōkāḥ śaśaṅkirē; ēkō mahābhaviṣyadvādī madhyē'smākam samudait, īśvaraśca svalōkānanvagr̥hlāt kathāmimāṁ kathayitvā īśvaraṁ dhanyaṁ jagaduḥ|
17 And this report about him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the neighboring country.
tataḥ paraṁ samastaṁ yihūdādēśaṁ tasya caturdiksthadēśañca tasyaitatkīrtti rvyānaśē|
18 And the disciples of John told him all these things.
tataḥ paraṁ yōhanaḥ śiṣyēṣu taṁ tadvr̥ttāntaṁ jñāpitavatsu
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?
sa svaśiṣyāṇāṁ dvau janāvāhūya yīśuṁ prati vakṣyamāṇaṁ vākyaṁ vaktuṁ prēṣayāmāsa, yasyāgamanam apēkṣya tiṣṭhāmō vayaṁ kiṁ sa ēva janastvaṁ? kiṁ vayamanyamapēkṣya sthāsyāmaḥ?
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?
paścāttau mānavau gatvā kathayāmāsatuḥ, yasyāgamanam apēkṣya tiṣṭhāmō vayaṁ, kiṁ saēva janastvaṁ? kiṁ vayamanyamapēkṣya sthāsyāmaḥ? kathāmimāṁ tubhyaṁ kathayituṁ yōhan majjaka āvāṁ prēṣitavān|
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many who were blind he gave sight.
tasmin daṇḍē yīśūrōgiṇō mahāvyādhimatō duṣṭabhūtagrastāṁśca bahūn svasthān kr̥tvā, anēkāndhēbhyaścakṣuṁṣi dattvā pratyuvāca,
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;
yuvāṁ vrajatam andhā nētrāṇi khañjāścaraṇāni ca prāpnuvanti, kuṣṭhinaḥ pariṣkriyantē, badhirāḥ śravaṇāni mr̥tāśca jīvanāni prāpnuvanti, daridrāṇāṁ samīpēṣu susaṁvādaḥ pracāryyatē, yaṁ prati vighnasvarūpōhaṁ na bhavāmi sa dhanyaḥ,
23 and blessed is he, whoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.
ētāni yāni paśyathaḥ śr̥ṇuthaśca tāni yōhanaṁ jñāpayatam|
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?
tayō rdūtayō rgatayōḥ satō ryōhani sa lōkān vaktumupacakramē, yūyaṁ madhyēprāntaraṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kiṁ vāyunā kampitaṁ naḍaṁ?
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.
yūyaṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kiṁ sūkṣmavastraparidhāyinaṁ kamapi naraṁ? kintu yē sūkṣmamr̥duvastrāṇi paridadhati sūttamāni dravyāṇi bhuñjatē ca tē rājadhānīṣu tiṣṭhanti|
26 But what have ye gone out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
tarhi yūyaṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kimēkaṁ bhaviṣyadvādinaṁ? tadēva satyaṁ kintu sa pumān bhaviṣyadvādinōpi śrēṣṭha ityahaṁ yuṣmān vadāmi;
27 This is he of whom it is written, “Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.”
paśya svakīyadūtantu tavāgra prēṣayāmyahaṁ| gatvā tvadīyamārgantu sa hi pariṣkariṣyati| yadarthē lipiriyam āstē sa ēva yōhan|
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.
atō yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi striyā garbbhajātānāṁ bhaviṣyadvādināṁ madhyē yōhanō majjakāt śrēṣṭhaḥ kōpi nāsti, tatrāpi īśvarasya rājyē yaḥ sarvvasmāt kṣudraḥ sa yōhanōpi śrēṣṭhaḥ|
29 And all the people when they heard him, and the publicans, acknowledged God as righteous by being baptized with the baptism of John.
aparañca sarvvē lōkāḥ karamañcāyinaśca tasya vākyāni śrutvā yōhanā majjanēna majjitāḥ paramēśvaraṁ nirdōṣaṁ mēnirē|
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.
kintu phirūśinō vyavasthāpakāśca tēna na majjitāḥ svān pratīśvarasyōpadēśaṁ niṣphalam akurvvan|
31 To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?
atha prabhuḥ kathayāmāsa, idānīntanajanān kēnōpamāmi? tē kasya sadr̥śāḥ?
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.
yē bālakā vipaṇyām upaviśya parasparam āhūya vākyamidaṁ vadanti, vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ nikaṭē vaṁśīravādiṣma, kintu yūyaṁ nānarttiṣṭa, vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ nikaṭa arōdiṣma, kintu yuyaṁ na vyalapiṣṭa, bālakairētādr̥śaistēṣām upamā bhavati|
33 For John the Baptist hath come not eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
yatō yōhan majjaka āgatya pūpaṁ nākhādat drākṣārasañca nāpivat tasmād yūyaṁ vadatha, bhūtagrastōyam|
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!
tataḥ paraṁ mānavasuta āgatyākhādadapivañca tasmād yūyaṁ vadatha, khādakaḥ surāpaścāṇḍālapāpināṁ bandhurēkō janō dr̥śyatām|
35 But wisdom is acknowledged by all her children.
kintu jñāninō jñānaṁ nirdōṣaṁ viduḥ|
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.
paścādēkaḥ phirūśī yīśuṁ bhōjanāya nyamantrayat tataḥ sa tasya gr̥haṁ gatvā bhōktumupaviṣṭaḥ|
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,
ētarhi tatphirūśinō gr̥hē yīśu rbhēktum upāvēkṣīt tacchrutvā tannagaravāsinī kāpi duṣṭā nārī pāṇḍaraprastarasya sampuṭakē sugandhitailam ānīya
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.
tasya paścāt pādayōḥ sannidhau tasyau rudatī ca nētrāmbubhistasya caraṇau prakṣālya nijakacairamārkṣīt, tatastasya caraṇau cumbitvā tēna sugandhitailēna mamarda|
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.
tasmāt sa nimantrayitā phirūśī manasā cintayāmāsa, yadyayaṁ bhaviṣyadvādī bhavēt tarhi ēnaṁ spr̥śati yā strī sā kā kīdr̥śī cēti jñātuṁ śaknuyāt yataḥ sā duṣṭā|
40 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on.
tadā yāśustaṁ jagāda, hē śimōn tvāṁ prati mama kiñcid vaktavyamasti; tasmāt sa babhāṣē, hē gurō tad vadatu|
41 A certain money-lender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty.
ēkōttamarṇasya dvāvadhamarṇāvāstāṁ, tayōrēkaḥ pañcaśatāni mudrāpādān aparaśca pañcāśat mudrāpādān dhārayāmāsa|
42 When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most?
tadanantaraṁ tayōḥ śōdhyābhāvāt sa uttamarṇastayō rr̥ṇē cakṣamē; tasmāt tayōrdvayōḥ kastasmin prēṣyatē bahu? tad brūhi|
43 Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly.
śimōn pratyuvāca, mayā budhyatē yasyādhikam r̥ṇaṁ cakṣamē sa iti; tatō yīśustaṁ vyājahāra, tvaṁ yathārthaṁ vyacārayaḥ|
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.
atha tāṁ nārīṁ prati vyāghuṭhya śimōnamavōcat, strīmimāṁ paśyasi? tava gr̥hē mayyāgatē tvaṁ pādaprakṣālanārthaṁ jalaṁ nādāḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā nayanajalai rmama pādau prakṣālya kēśairamārkṣīt|
45 No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet.
tvaṁ māṁ nācumbīḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā svīyāgamanādārabhya madīyapādau cumbituṁ na vyaraṁsta|
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment.
tvañca madīyōttamāṅgē kiñcidapi tailaṁ nāmardīḥ kintu yōṣidēṣā mama caraṇau sugandhitailēnāmarddīt|
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.
atastvāṁ vyāharāmi, ētasyā bahu pāpamakṣamyata tatō bahu prīyatē kintu yasyālpapāpaṁ kṣamyatē sōlpaṁ prīyatē|
48 And he said to her, Thy sins have been forgiven.
tataḥ paraṁ sa tāṁ babhāṣē, tvadīyaṁ pāpamakṣamyata|
49 And those who were at table with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?
tadā tēna sārddhaṁ yē bhōktum upaviviśustē parasparaṁ vaktumārēbhirē, ayaṁ pāpaṁ kṣamatē ka ēṣaḥ?
50 But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
kintu sa tāṁ nārīṁ jagāda, tava viśvāsastvāṁ paryyatrāsta tvaṁ kṣēmēṇa vraja|
