Matthew 21
1 When they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethsphage, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples ahead,
anantaraṁ tēṣu yirūśālamnagarasya samīpavērttinō jaitunanāmakadharādharasya samīpasthtiṁ baitphagigrāmam āgatēṣu, yīśuḥ śiṣyadvayaṁ prēṣayan jagāda,
2 telling them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied there and a colt with it. Untie them and bring them to me.
yuvāṁ sammukhasthagrāmaṁ gatvā baddhāṁ yāṁ savatsāṁ garddabhīṁ haṭhāt prāpsyathaḥ, tāṁ mōcayitvā madantikam ānayataṁ|
3 If anyone says anything to you, say, ‘The Lord has need of them.’ And immediately he will send them.”
tatra yadi kaścit kiñcid vakṣyati, tarhi vadiṣyathaḥ, ētasyāṁ prabhōḥ prayōjanamāstē, tēna sa tatkṣaṇāt prahēṣyati|
4 Now all this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken through the prophet:
sīyōnaḥ kanyakāṁ yūyaṁ bhāṣadhvamiti bhāratīṁ| paśya tē namraśīlaḥ san nr̥pa āruhya gardabhīṁ| arthādāruhya tadvatsamāyāsyati tvadantikaṁ|
5 “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, yoʋr king is coming to yoʋ, humble and mounted on a donkey, and a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.’”
bhaviṣyadvādinōktaṁ vacanamidaṁ tadā saphalamabhūt|
6 So the disciples went and did just as Jesus had directed them.
anantaraṁ tau śṣyi yīśō ryathānidēśaṁ taṁ grāmaṁ gatvā
7 They brought the donkey and the colt and laid on them their garments, and Jesus sat on them.
gardabhīṁ tadvatsañca samānītavantau, paścāt tadupari svīyavasanānī pātayitvā tamārōhayāmāsatuḥ|
8 A very large crowd spread their garments on the road, and others cut down branches from the trees and also spread them on the road.
tatō bahavō lōkā nijavasanāni pathi prasārayitumārēbhirē, katipayā janāśca pādapaparṇādikaṁ chitvā pathi vistārayāmāsuḥ|
9 The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed were crying out, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
agragāminaḥ paścādgāminaśca manujā uccairjaya jaya dāyūdaḥ santānēti jagaduḥ paramēśvarasya nāmnā ya āyāti sa dhanyaḥ, sarvvōparisthasvargēpi jayati|
10 As Jesus came into Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
itthaṁ tasmin yirūśālamaṁ praviṣṭē kō'yamiti kathanāt kr̥tsnaṁ nagaraṁ cañcalamabhavat|
11 So the crowds were saying, “This is the prophet Jesus, who is from Nazareth of Galilee.”
tatra lōkōḥ kathayāmāsuḥ, ēṣa gālīlpradēśīya-nāsaratīya-bhaviṣyadvādī yīśuḥ|
12 Then Jesus entered the courts of God's temple and drove out all who were selling and buying there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves.
anantaraṁ yīśurīśvarasya mandiraṁ praviśya tanmadhyāt krayavikrayiṇō vahiścakāra; vaṇijāṁ mudrāsanānī kapōtavikrayiṇāñcasanānī ca nyuvjayāmāsa|
13 And he said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers.”
aparaṁ tānuvāca, ēṣā lipirāstē, "mama gr̥haṁ prārthanāgr̥hamiti vikhyāsyati", kintu yūyaṁ tad dasyūnāṁ gahvaraṁ kr̥tavantaḥ|
14 Then the lame and the blind came to him in the temple courts, and he healed them.
tadanantaram andhakhañcalōkāstasya samīpamāgatāḥ, sa tān nirāmayān kr̥tavān|
15 But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did and the children crying out in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David,” they were indignant
yadā pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāśca tēna kr̥tānyētāni citrakarmmāṇi dadr̥śuḥ, jaya jaya dāyūdaḥ santāna, mandirē bālakānām ētādr̥śam uccadhvaniṁ śuśruvuśca, tadā mahākruddhā babhūvaḥ,
16 and said to him, “Do yoʋ hear what these children are saying?” Jesus said to them, “Yes, have you never read, ‘Out of the mouths of babies and nursing infants yoʋ have prepared praise’?”
taṁ papracchuśca, imē yad vadanti, tat kiṁ tvaṁ śr̥ṇōṣi? tatō yīśustān avōcat, satyam; stanyapāyiśiśūnāñca bālakānāñca vaktrataḥ| svakīyaṁ mahimānaṁ tvaṁ saṁprakāśayasi svayaṁ| ētadvākyaṁ yūyaṁ kiṁ nāpaṭhata?
17 And leaving them, he went out of the city to Bethany and spent the night there.
tatastān vihāya sa nagarād baithaniyāgrāmaṁ gatvā tatra rajanīṁ yāpayāmāsa|
18 Early in the morning, as Jesus was returning to the city, he was hungry.
anantaraṁ prabhātē sati yīśuḥ punarapi nagaramāgacchan kṣudhārttō babhūva|
19 Seeing a lone fig tree by the road, he came to it and found nothing on it but leaves. Then he said to it, “May there never be any fruit from yoʋ again!” And at once the fig tree withered. (aiōn g165)
tatō mārgapārśva uḍumbaravr̥kṣamēkaṁ vilōkya tatsamīpaṁ gatvā patrāṇi vinā kimapi na prāpya taṁ pādapaṁ prōvāca, adyārabhya kadāpi tvayi phalaṁ na bhavatu; tēna tatkṣaṇāt sa uḍumbaramāhīruhaḥ śuṣkatāṁ gataḥ| (aiōn g165)
20 When the disciples saw it, they were amazed, saying, “How did the fig tree wither all at once?”
tad dr̥ṣṭvā śiṣyā āścaryyaṁ vijñāya kathayāmāsuḥ, āḥ, uḍumvarapādapō'titūrṇaṁ śuṣkō'bhavat|
21 Jesus answered them, “Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen.
tatō yīśustānuvāca, yuṣmānahaṁ satyaṁ vadāmi, yadi yūyamasandigdhāḥ pratītha, tarhi yūyamapi kēvalōḍumvarapādapaṁ pratītthaṁ karttuṁ śakṣyatha, tanna, tvaṁ calitvā sāgarē patēti vākyaṁ yuṣmābhirasmina śailē prōktēpi tadaiva tad ghaṭiṣyatē|
22 And if you have faith, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
tathā viśvasya prārthya yuṣmābhi ryad yāciṣyatē, tadēva prāpsyatē|
23 When he entered the temple courts, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching and said, “By what authority are yoʋ doing these things? And who gave yoʋ this authority?”
anantaraṁ mandiraṁ praviśyōpadēśanasamayē tatsamīpaṁ pradhānayājakāḥ prācīnalōkāścāgatya papracchuḥ, tvayā kēna sāmarthyanaitāni karmmāṇi kriyantē? kēna vā tubhyamētāni sāmarthyāni dattāni?
24 Jesus answered them, “I will also ask you one question. If you tell me the answer, I will also tell you by what authority I am doing these things:
tatō yīśuḥ pratyavadat, ahamapi yuṣmān vācamēkāṁ pr̥cchāmi, yadi yūyaṁ taduttaraṁ dātuṁ śakṣyatha, tadā kēna sāmarthyēna karmmāṇyētāni karōmi, tadahaṁ yuṣmān vakṣyāmi|
25 Where did John's authority to baptize come from? From heaven or from men?” So they discussed it among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say to us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
yōhanō majjanaṁ kasyājñayābhavat? kimīśvarasya manuṣyasya vā? tatastē parasparaṁ vivicya kathayāmāsuḥ, yadīśvarasyēti vadāmastarhi yūyaṁ taṁ kutō na pratyaita? vācamētāṁ vakṣyati|
26 But we are afraid of what the crowd might do if we say, ‘From men,’ for everyone regards John as a prophet.”
manuṣyasyēti vaktumapi lōkēbhyō bibhīmaḥ, yataḥ sarvvairapi yōhan bhaviṣyadvādīti jñāyatē|
27 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.” Then he said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
tasmāt tē yīśuṁ pratyavadan, tad vayaṁ na vidmaḥ| tadā sa tānuktavān, tarhi kēna sāmarathyēna karmmāṇyētānyahaṁ karōmi, tadapyahaṁ yuṣmān na vakṣyāmi|
28 “But what do you think? A man had two sons. He went to his first son and said, ‘Son, go work today in my vineyard.’
kasyacijjanasya dvau sutāvāstāṁ sa ēkasya sutasya samīpaṁ gatvā jagāda, hē suta, tvamadya mama drākṣākṣētrē karmma kartuṁ vraja|
29 His son answered, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he changed his mind and went.
tataḥ sa uktavān, na yāsyāmi, kintu śēṣē'nutapya jagāma|
30 Then the man went to his other son and said the same thing. His other son answered, ‘I will go, sir,’ but he did not go.
anantaraṁ sōnyasutasya samīpaṁ gatvā tathaiva kathtivān; tataḥ sa pratyuvāca, mahēccha yāmi, kintu na gataḥ|
31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said to him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you, tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you.
ētayōḥ putrayō rmadhyē piturabhimataṁ kēna pālitaṁ? yuṣmābhiḥ kiṁ budhyatē? tatastē pratyūcuḥ, prathamēna putrēṇa| tadānīṁ yīśustānuvāca, ahaṁ yuṣmān tathyaṁ vadāmi, caṇḍālā gaṇikāśca yuṣmākamagrata īśvarasya rājyaṁ praviśanti|
32 For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but tax collectors and prostitutes believed him. Yet even after you saw it, you did not change your minds and believe him.
yatō yuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ yōhani dharmmapathēnāgatē yūyaṁ taṁ na pratītha, kintu caṇḍālā gaṇikāśca taṁ pratyāyan, tad vilōkyāpi yūyaṁ pratyētuṁ nākhidyadhvaṁ|
33 “Listen to another parable: There was a master of a house who planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, leased it to farmers, and left the country.
aparamēkaṁ dr̥ṣṭāntaṁ śr̥ṇuta, kaścid gr̥hasthaḥ kṣētrē drākṣālatā rōpayitvā taccaturdikṣu vāraṇīṁ vidhāya tanmadhyē drākṣāyantraṁ sthāpitavān, māñcañca nirmmitavān, tataḥ kr̥ṣakēṣu tat kṣētraṁ samarpya svayaṁ dūradēśaṁ jagāma|
34 When the season for fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the farmers to receive his fruit.
tadanantaraṁ phalasamaya upasthitē sa phalāni prāptuṁ kr̥ṣīvalānāṁ samīpaṁ nijadāsān prēṣayāmāsa|
35 But the farmers seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned yet another.
kintu kr̥ṣīvalāstasya tān dāsēyān dhr̥tvā kañcana prahr̥tavantaḥ, kañcana pāṣāṇairāhatavantaḥ, kañcana ca hatavantaḥ|
36 Again he sent other servants, more than the first group. But the farmers treated them in the same way.
punarapi sa prabhuḥ prathamatō'dhikadāsēyān prēṣayāmāsa, kintu tē tān pratyapi tathaiva cakruḥ|
37 Last of all, he sent them his son, saying, ‘They will have respect for my son.’
anantaraṁ mama sutē gatē taṁ samādariṣyantē, ityuktvā śēṣē sa nijasutaṁ tēṣāṁ sannidhiṁ prēṣayāmāsa|
38 But when the farmers saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and take possession of his inheritance.’
kintu tē kr̥ṣīvalāḥ sutaṁ vīkṣya parasparam iti mantrayitum ārēbhirē, ayamuttarādhikārī vayamēnaṁ nihatyāsyādhikāraṁ svavaśīkariṣyāmaḥ|
39 So they took him, threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
paścāt tē taṁ dhr̥tvā drākṣākṣētrād bahiḥ pātayitvābadhiṣuḥ|
40 Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those farmers?”
yadā sa drākṣākṣētrapatirāgamiṣyati, tadā tān kr̥ṣīvalān kiṁ kariṣyati?
41 They said to him, “He will bring those wretches to a wretched end and lease the vineyard to other farmers who will give him the fruits in their seasons.”
tatastē pratyavadan, tān kaluṣiṇō dāruṇayātanābhirāhaniṣyati, yē ca samayānukramāt phalāni dāsyanti, tādr̥śēṣu kr̥ṣīvalēṣu kṣētraṁ samarpayiṣyati|
42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures, ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord's doing, and it is amazing in our eyes’?
tadā yīśunā tē gaditāḥ, grahaṇaṁ na kr̥taṁ yasya pāṣāṇasya nicāyakaiḥ| pradhānaprastaraḥ kōṇē saēva saṁbhaviṣyati| ētat parēśituḥ karmmāsmadr̥ṣṭāvadbhutaṁ bhavēt| dharmmagranthē likhitamētadvacanaṁ yuṣmābhiḥ kiṁ nāpāṭhi?
43 Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.
tasmādahaṁ yuṣmān vadāmi, yuṣmatta īśvarīyarājyamapanīya phalōtpādayitranyajātayē dāyiṣyatē|
44 He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.”
yō jana ētatpāṣāṇōpari patiṣyati, taṁ sa bhaṁkṣyatē, kintvayaṁ pāṣāṇō yasyōpari patiṣyati, taṁ sa dhūlivat cūrṇīkariṣyati|
45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard Jesus' parables, they knew he was speaking about them.
tadānīṁ prādhanayājakāḥ phirūśinaśca tasyēmāṁ dr̥ṣṭāntakathāṁ śrutvā sō'smānuddiśya kathitavān, iti vijñāya taṁ dharttuṁ cēṣṭitavantaḥ;
46 Although they were looking for a way to arrest him, they were afraid of the crowds, because the people regarded him as a prophet.
kintu lōkēbhyō bibhyuḥ, yatō lōkaiḥ sa bhaviṣyadvādītyajñāyi|
