< Matthew 6 >
1 “Be careful not to give to the needy in front of others to be seen by them, otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.
sāvadhānā bhavata, manujān darśayituṁ teṣāṁ gocare dharmmakarmma mā kuruta, tathā kṛte yuṣmākaṁ svargasthapituḥ sakāśāt kiñcana phalaṁ na prāpsyatha|
2 So when yoʋ give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before yoʋ, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
tvaṁ yadā dadāsi tadā kapaṭino janā yathā manujebhyaḥ praśaṁsāṁ prāptuṁ bhajanabhavane rājamārge ca tūrīṁ vādayanti, tathā mā kuri, ahaṁ tubhyaṁ yathārthaṁ kathayāmi, te svakāyaṁ phalam alabhanta|
3 But when yoʋ give to the needy, do not let yoʋr left hand know what yoʋr right hand is doing,
kintu tvaṁ yadā dadāsi, tadā nijadakṣiṇakaro yat karoti, tad vāmakaraṁ mā jñāpaya|
4 so that yoʋr giving may be in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will himself reward yoʋ openly.
tena tava dānaṁ guptaṁ bhaviṣyati yastu tava pitā guptadarśī, sa prakāśya tubhyaṁ phalaṁ dāsyati|
5 “When yoʋ pray, do not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and at the street corners so that they may be seen by others. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
aparaṁ yadā prārthayase, tadā kapaṭina̮iva mā kuru, yasmāt te bhajanabhavane rājamārgasya koṇe tiṣṭhanto lokān darśayantaḥ prārthayituṁ prīyante; ahaṁ yuṣmān tathyaṁ vadāmi, te svakīyaphalaṁ prāpnuvan|
6 But when yoʋ pray, go into yoʋr inner room, shut yoʋr door, and pray to yoʋr Father who is in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will reward yoʋ openly.
tasmāt prārthanākāle antarāgāraṁ praviśya dvāraṁ rudvvā guptaṁ paśyatastava pituḥ samīpe prārthayasva; tena tava yaḥ pitā guptadarśī, sa prakāśya tubhyaṁ phalaṁ dāsyati
7 “And when you pray, do not babble on repetitiously like the Gentiles do, for they think they will be heard because of their use of many words.
aparaṁ prārthanākāle devapūjakāiva mudhā punaruktiṁ mā kuru, yasmāt te bodhante, bahuvāraṁ kathāyāṁ kathitāyāṁ teṣāṁ prārthanā grāhiṣyate|
8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
yūyaṁ teṣāmiva mā kuruta, yasmāt yuṣmākaṁ yad yat prayojanaṁ yācanātaḥ prāgeva yuṣmākaṁ pitā tat jānāti|
9 Pray then like this: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be yoʋr name.
ataeva yūyama īdṛk prārthayadhvaṁ, he asmākaṁ svargasthapitaḥ, tava nāma pūjyaṁ bhavatu|
10 Yoʋr kingdom come. Yoʋr will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
tava rājatvaṁ bhavatu; tavecchā svarge yathā tathaiva medinyāmapi saphalā bhavatu|
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
asmākaṁ prayojanīyam āhāram adya dehi|
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
vayaṁ yathā nijāparādhinaḥ kṣamāmahe, tathaivāsmākam aparādhān kṣamasva|
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yoʋrs is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
asmān parīkṣāṁ mānaya, kintu pāpātmano rakṣa; rājatvaṁ gauravaṁ parākramaḥ ete sarvve sarvvadā tava; tathāstu|
14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
yadi yūyam anyeṣām aparādhān kṣamadhve tarhi yuṣmākaṁ svargasthapitāpi yuṣmān kṣamiṣyate;
15 But if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
kintu yadi yūyam anyeṣām aparādhān na kṣamadhve, tarhi yuṣmākaṁ janakopi yuṣmākam aparādhān na kṣamiṣyate|
16 “When you fast, do not be gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces so that others will see that they are fasting. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
aparam upavāsakāle kapaṭino janā mānuṣān upavāsaṁ jñāpayituṁ sveṣāṁ vadanāni mlānāni kurvvanti, yūyaṁ ta̮iva viṣaṇavadanā mā bhavata; ahaṁ yuṣmān tathyaṁ vadāmi te svakīyaphalam alabhanta|
17 But when yoʋ fast, anoint yoʋr head and wash yoʋr face,
yadā tvam upavasasi, tadā yathā lokaistvaṁ upavāsīva na dṛśyase, kintu tava yo'gocaraḥ pitā tenaiva dṛśyase, tatkṛte nijaśirasi tailaṁ marddaya vadanañca prakṣālaya;
18 so that no one will see that yoʋ are fasting except yoʋr Father who is in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will reward yoʋ.
tena tava yaḥ pitā guptadarśī sa prakāśya tubhyaṁ phalaṁ dāsyati|
19 “Do not store up treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
aparaṁ yatra sthāne kīṭāḥ kalaṅkāśca kṣayaṁ nayanti, caurāśca sandhiṁ karttayitvā corayituṁ śaknuvanti, tādṛśyāṁ medinyāṁ svārthaṁ dhanaṁ mā saṁcinuta|
20 But store up treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
kintu yatra sthāne kīṭāḥ kalaṅkāśca kṣayaṁ na nayanti, caurāśca sandhiṁ karttayitvā corayituṁ na śaknuvanti, tādṛśe svarge dhanaṁ sañcinuta|
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
yasmāt yatra sthāne yuṣmāṁka dhanaṁ tatraiva khāne yuṣmākaṁ manāṁsi|
22 “The lamp of the body is the eye. If then yoʋr eye is clear, yoʋr whole body will be full of light.
locanaṁ dehasya pradīpakaṁ, tasmāt yadi tava locanaṁ prasannaṁ bhavati, tarhi tava kṛtsnaṁ vapu rdīptiyuktaṁ bhaviṣyati|
23 But if yoʋr eye is bad, yoʋr whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within yoʋ is darkness, how great is the darkness!
kintu locane'prasanne tava kṛtsnaṁ vapuḥ tamisrayuktaṁ bhaviṣyati| ataeva yā dīptistvayi vidyate, sā yadi tamisrayuktā bhavati, tarhi tat tamisraṁ kiyan mahat|
24 “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
kopi manujo dvau prabhū sevituṁ na śaknoti, yasmād ekaṁ saṁmanya tadanyaṁ na sammanyate, yadvā ekatra mano nidhāya tadanyam avamanyate; tathā yūyamapīśvaraṁ lakṣmīñcetyubhe sevituṁ na śaknutha|
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat and what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
aparam ahaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ tathyaṁ kathayāmi, kiṁ bhakṣiṣyāmaḥ? kiṁ pāsyāmaḥ? iti prāṇadhāraṇāya mā cintayata; kiṁ paridhāsyāmaḥ? iti kāyarakṣaṇāya na cintayata; bhakṣyāt prāṇā vasanāñca vapūṁṣi kiṁ śreṣṭhāṇi na hi?
26 Look at the birds of the sky: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
vihāyaso vihaṅgamān vilokayata; tai rnopyate na kṛtyate bhāṇḍāgāre na sañcīyate'pi; tathāpi yuṣmākaṁ svargasthaḥ pitā tebhya āhāraṁ vitarati|
27 Which of you by being anxious can add a single moment to yoʋr span of life?
yūyaṁ tebhyaḥ kiṁ śreṣṭhā na bhavatha? yuṣmākaṁ kaścit manujaḥ cintayan nijāyuṣaḥ kṣaṇamapi varddhayituṁ śaknoti?
28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: They do not toil or spin,
aparaṁ vasanāya kutaścintayata? kṣetrotpannāni puṣpāṇi kathaṁ varddhante tadālocayata| tāni tantūn notpādayanti kimapi kāryyaṁ na kurvvanti;
29 yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these.
tathāpyahaṁ yuṣmān vadāmi, sulemān tādṛg aiśvaryyavānapi tatpuṣpamiva vibhūṣito nāsīt|
30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
tasmāt kṣadya vidyamānaṁ ścaḥ cullyāṁ nikṣepsyate tādṛśaṁ yat kṣetrasthitaṁ kusumaṁ tat yadīścara itthaṁ bibhūṣayati, tarhi he stokapratyayino yuṣmān kiṁ na paridhāpayiṣyati?
31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘What will we wear?’
tasmāt asmābhiḥ kimatsyate? kiñca pāyiṣyate? kiṁ vā paridhāyiṣyate, iti na cintayata|
32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
yasmāt devārccakā apīti ceṣṭante; eteṣu dravyeṣu prayojanamastīti yuṣmākaṁ svargasthaḥ pitā jānāti|
33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
ataeva prathamata īśvarīyarājyaṁ dharmmañca ceṣṭadhvaṁ, tata etāni vastūni yuṣmabhyaṁ pradāyiṣyante|
34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious about its own matters. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
śvaḥ kṛte mā cintayata, śvaeva svayaṁ svamuddiśya cintayiṣyati; adyatanī yā cintā sādyakṛte pracuratarā|
