Luke 20
1 On one of these days, when Jesus was teaching the people in the Temple Courts and telling the good news, the chief priests and the teachers of the Law, joined by the elders, confronted him,
येशूले मन्दिरमा मानिसहरूलाई शिक्षा दिइरहनुहुँदा र सुसमाचार प्रचार गरिरहनुहुँदा, अगुवाहरूसहित मुख्य पुजारीहरू र शास्त्रीहरू येशूकहाँ आए ।
2 and addressing him, said, ‘Tell us what authority you have to do these things. Who is it who has given you this authority?’
तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई भने, “हामीलाई बताऊ, कुन अधिकारद्वारा तिमी यी कामहरू गर्छौ? अथवा कसले तिमीलाई यो अधिकार दियो?”
3 ‘I, too,’ said Jesus in reply, ‘will ask you one question. Give me an answer to it.
उहाँले जवाफ दिएर भन्नुभयो, “म पनि तिमीहरूलाई एउटा प्रश्न सोध्छु ।
4 It is about John’s baptism – was it of divine or of human origin?’
यूहन्नाको बप्तिस्माको बारेमा मलाई बताओ । यो स्वर्गबाट थियो कि मानिसहरूबाट?”
5 But they began arguing together, ‘If we say “divine,” he will say “Why didn’t you believe him?”
उनीहरूले आपसमा भने, “यदि हामीले स्वर्गबाट भन्यौँ भने उसले यसो भन्ला ‘त्यसो भए तिमीहरूले उनलाई किन विश्वास गरेनौ?’
6 But, if we say “human,” the people will all stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.’
तर यदि हामीले मानिसबाट हो भन्यौँ भने, ‘सबै मानिसले हामीलाई ढुङ्गाले हान्नेछन्, किनभने उनीहरूले यूहन्नालाई अगमवक्ता हो भनी विश्वास गरेका छन्’ ।”
7 So they answered that they did not know its origin.
यसकारण तिनीहरूले यसो भनेर उत्तर दिए, “त्यो कहाँबाट भयो भनी हामीलाई थाहा छैन ।”
8 ‘Then I,’ said Jesus, ‘refuse to tell you what authority I have to do these things.’
येशूले तिनीहरूले भन्नुभयो, “म पनि तिमीहरूलाई मैले कुन अधिकारले यी कामहरू गर्छु भनी बताउँदिनँ ।”
9 But Jesus began to tell the people this parable – ‘A man once planted a vineyard, and then let it out to tenants, and went abroad for a long while.
उहाँले मानिसहरूलाई यो दृष्टान्त भन्नुभयो, “एक जना मानिसले दाखबारी लगाएर कामदारहरूलाई जिम्मा दिएर आफू लामो समयको लागि अर्को देशमा गए ।
10 At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants, so that they could give him a share of the produce of the vineyard. The tenants, however, beat him and sent him away empty-handed.
तोकिएको समयमा तिनीहरूले आफ्नो हिस्साको फल दिऊन् भनी तिनले आफ्नो एक जना नोकरलाई ती कामदारहरूकहाँ पठाए । तर ती कामदारहरूले त्यसलाई पिटेर रित्तो हात पठाइदिए ।
11 The owner afterwards sent another servant; but the tenants beat and insulted this man too, and sent him away empty-handed.
तिनले अझै अर्को नोकरलाई पठाए, तर तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई पनि पिटेर बेइज्जत गरी रित्तै हात पठाए ।
12 He sent a third; but they wounded this man also, and threw him outside.
तिनले तेस्रो नोकरलाई पनि पठाए, तर तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई पनि घाइते बनाएर निकाली दिए ।
13 “What should I do?” said the owner of the vineyard. “I will send my son, who is very dear to me. Perhaps they will respect him.”
त्यसकारण, दाखबारीका मालिकले भने, ‘अब म के गरूँ? म आफ्नो प्यारो छोरालाई पठाउनेछु सायद उसलाई त तिनीहरूले आदर गर्लान् कि ।’
14 But, on seeing him, the tenants consulted with one another. “Here is the heir!” they said. “Let us kill him, and then the inheritance will become ours.”
तर कामदारहरूले उसलाई देखेर आपसमा कुरा गरे, ‘यो त हकवाला हो । हामी यसलाई मारौँ र सम्पत्तिको हक हाम्रो हुनेछ ।’
15 So they threw him outside the vineyard and killed him. Now what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
अनि तिनीहरूले उसलाई दाखबारीको बाहिर लगेर मारे । अब दाखबारीका मालिकले तिनीहरूलाई के गर्लान्?
16 He will come and put those tenants to death, and will let the vineyard to others.’ ‘Heaven forbid!’ they exclaimed when they heard it.
उनी आएर ती कामदारहरूलाई मार्नेछन् र दाखाबरी अरूहरूलाई दिनेछन् ।” यो सुनेर तिनीहरूले भने, “यस्तो कहिल्यै नहोस्!”
17 But Jesus looked at them and said, ‘What then is the meaning of this passage? – “The stone which the builders despised has now itself become the cornerstone.”
तर येशूले तिनीहरूलाई हेर्नुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “यो धर्मशास्त्रको भनाइको अर्थ के हो, ‘जुन ढुङ्गालाई भवन निर्माण गर्नेहरूले इन्कार गरे त्यही नै कुने-ढुङ्गो बन्यो?’
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be dashed to pieces, while anyone on whom it falls – it will scatter him as dust.’
त्यस ढुङ्गामाथि खस्ने हरेक चकनाचुर हुनेछ, तर जसमाथि त्यो खस्छ त्यसले त्यसलाई धुलोपिठो पार्नेछ ।”
19 After this the teachers of the Law and the chief priest were eager to lay hands on Jesus then and there, but they were afraid of the people; for they saw that it was at them that he had aimed this parable.
त्यसकारण, शास्त्री र मुख्य पुजारीहरूले त्यति नै बेला उहाँलाई पक्रन खोजे । किनकि तिनीहरूलाई थाहा भयो कि उहाँले यो दृष्टान्त तिनीहरूकै विरुद्धमा भन्नुभएको थियो । तर तिनीहरू मानिसहरूसँग डराउँथे ।
20 Having watched their opportunity, they afterwards sent some spies, who pretended to be good men, to catch Jesus in the course of conversation, and so enable them to give him up to the Governor’s jurisdiction and authority.
तिनीहरूले मौका हेर्न लागे र येशूले भन्नुभएको कुरामा केही गलत साबित भए उहाँलाई फसाएर अधिकारीहरूको हातमा सुम्पिदिने नियतले तिनीहरूले धर्मी भई टोपल्ने जासुसहरूलाई उहाँकहाँ पठाए ।
21 These spies asked Jesus a question. They said, ‘Teacher, we know that you are right in what you say and teach, and that you do not take any account of a person’s position, but teach the way of God honestly;
उनीहरूले उहाँलाई सोधे, “गुरुज्यू, हामी जान्दछौँ कि तपाईं ठिक बोल्नुहुन्छ र ठिक सिकाउनुहुन्छ र कसैको पक्षपात गर्नुहुन्न तर परमेश्वरको मार्गको सत्यता सिकाउनुहुन्छ ।
22 are we right in paying tribute to the Emperor or not?’
हामीले कैसरलाई कर तिर्नु उचित छ कि छैन?”
23 Seeing through their deceitfulness, Jesus said to them,
येशूले उनीहरूको धूर्त्याइँलाई बुझेर भन्नुभयो,
24 ‘Show me a coin. Whose head and title are on it?’
“मलाई एउटा सिक्का देखाओ, यसमा कसको नाम र चित्र खोपिएको छ?” उनीहरूले भने, “कैसरको ।”
25 ‘The Emperor’s,’ they said; and Jesus replied, ‘Well then, pay to the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor, and to God what belongs to God.’
उहाँले उनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “त्यसो भए जे कैसर को हो, कैसरलाई देओ र जे परमेश्वरको हो परमेश्वरलाई देओ ।”
26 They could not object to this answer before the people; and, in their wonder at his reply, they held their tongues.
मानिसहरूको सामुन्ने उहाँले बोल्नुभएका कुरामा शास्त्री र मुख्य पुजारीहरूले उहाँलाई फसाउन सकेनन् । उहाँको जवाफमा उनीहरू छक्क परे र केही पनि भन्न सकेनन् ।
27 Presently there came up some Sadducees, who maintain that there is no resurrection. Their question was this –
त्यसपछि मृतकहरूबाट पुनरुत्थान हुँदैन भन्ने सदूकीहरू उहाँकहाँ आए,
28 ‘Teacher, Moses laid down for us in his writings that – “Should a man’s married brother die, and should he be childless, the man should take the widow as his wife, and raise up a family for his brother.”
र उहाँलाई सोधे, “गुरुज्यू, मोशाले हामीलाई लेखिदिएका थिए, कि कुनै मानिसको विवाहित दाजु निसन्तान भयो भने भाइले त्यसकी पत्नीलाई विवाह गरी दाजुको लागि सन्तान खडा गरिदिनुपर्छ ।
29 Well, there were once seven brothers; of whom the eldest, after taking a wife, died childless.
सात भाइ थिए । जेठोले एउटी पत्नी ल्यायो र निसन्तान मर्यो
30 The second and third brothers both took her as their wife;
अनि माहिलाले पनि त्यसलाई विवाह गर्यो र निसन्तान मर्यो ।
31 and so, too, did all seven – dying without children.
साहिँलाले पनि त्यसलाई विवाह गर्यो अनि त्यसरी नै ती सातै जना निसन्तान मरे ।
32 The woman herself was the last to die.
पछिबाट त्यो स्त्री पनि मरी ।
33 About the woman, then – at the resurrection, whose wife is she to be, all seven brothers having had her as their wife?’
यसकारण, मृतकबाट पुनरुत्थान हुँदा त्यो स्त्री तिनीहरूमध्ये कसकी पत्नी हुनेछे? किनकि ती सातै जनाले त्यसलाई पत्नीको रूपमा लिएका थिए ।”
येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “यस युगका मानिसहरू विवाह गर्छन् र विवाह गरेर पठाइन्छन् । (aiōn g165)
35 but, for those who are thought worthy to attain to that other world and the resurrection from the dead, there is no marrying or being married, (aiōn g165)
तर मृतकबाट जीवित भई उठ्न र अनन्त जीवन प्राप्त गर्न योग्य ठहरिनेहरूले न विवाह गर्दछन् न त विवाह गरेर पठाइन्छन् । (aiōn g165)
36 nor indeed can they die again, for they are like angels and, having shared in the resurrection, they are God’s children.
तिनीहरू फेरि मर्दैनन्, किनभने तिनीहरू स्वर्गदूत समान हुन् र पुनरुत्थानका सन्तान भएकाले परमेश्वरका सन्तान हुन् ।
37 As to the fact that the dead rise, even Moses indicated that, in the passage about the Bush, when he calls the Lord – “The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.”
तर मृतकहरू जीवित भई उठ्नेछन् भन्नेकुरा मोशाले पनि पोथ्राको विवरणमा परमप्रभुलाई अब्राहामका परमेश्वर, इसहाकका परमेश्वर र याकूबका परमेश्वर भनेर पुकार्दा देखाइदिए ।
38 Now he is not God of dead people, but of living. For in his sight all are alive.’
उहाँ मृतकहरूका परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्न, तर जीवितहरूका परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ, किनकि सबै उहाँकै निम्ति जिउँछन् ।”
39 ‘Well said, teacher!’ exclaimed some of the teachers of the Law,
अनि शास्त्रीहरूमध्ये कुनै-कुनैले भने, “गुरुज्यू, तपाईंले सही जवाफ दिनुभयो ।”
40 for they did not venture to question him any further.
उनीहरू कसैले पनि उहाँलाई फेरि प्रश्न सोध्ने आँट गरेनन् ।
41 But Jesus said to them, ‘How is it that people say that the Christ is to be David’s son?
येशूले उनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “ख्रीष्ट दाऊदका पुत्र हुन् भनेर तिनीहरूले कसरी भन्दछन्?
42 For David, in the book of Psalms, says himself – “The Lord said to my lord: Sit at my right hand,
किनकि भजनको पुस्तकमा दाऊद आफैँले भन्दछन्, परमप्रभुले मेरा प्रभुलाई भन्नुभयो, ‘तिमी मेरो दाहिने हातपट्टि बस,
43 until I put your enemies as a stool for your feet.”
जबसम्म म तिम्रा शत्रुहरूलाई तिम्रो पाउदान तुल्याउँदिनँ ।’
44 David, then, calls him “lord,” so how is he David’s son?’
यसकारण, दाऊदले ख्रीष्टलाई प्रभु भन्दछन् भने फेरि उनी कसरी दाऊदका पुत्र भए?”
45 While all the people were listening, Jesus said to the disciples,
सबै मानिसहरूले सुन्ने गरी उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्नुभयो,
46 ‘Be on your guard against the teachers of the Law, who delight to walk about in long robes, and like to be greeted in the streets with respect, and to have the best seats in the synagogues, and places of honour at dinner.
“शास्त्रीहरूदेखि होसियार रहो जो लामा वस्त्रहरूमा सजिएर बजारमा अभिवादन गरिएको मन पराउँछन् अनि सभाघर र भोजहरूमा प्रमुख स्थान चाहन्छन् ।
47 These are the men who rob widows of their houses, and make a pretence of saying long prayers. Their sentence will be all the heavier.’
तिनीहरूले विधवाहरूको घर हडप्छन् र लामो-लामो प्रार्थना गरेर देखाउँछन् । तिनीहरूले नै अझै ठुलो दण्ड पाउनेछन् ।”
