John 13
1 When it was the evening before the Passover celebration, Jesus knew that it was time for him to leave this world and [to return] to [his] Father [in heaven]. He loved us who [were his disciples]. He knew [we would continue to live here] in this world, so now he [showed us] how completely he loved us.
निस्तारोत्सवस्य किञ्चित्कालात् पूर्व्वं पृथिव्याः पितुः समीपगमनस्य समयः सन्निकर्षोभूद् इति ज्ञात्वा यीशुराप्रथमाद् येषु जगत्प्रवासिष्वात्मीयलोकेष प्रेम करोति स्म तेषु शेषं यावत् प्रेम कृतवान्।
2 We were eating [the Passover meal]. (The devil/Satan) had already suggested to Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), the son of Simon, that he should (betray Jesus/enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him).
पिता तस्य हस्ते सर्व्वं समर्पितवान् स्वयम् ईश्वरस्य समीपाद् आगच्छद् ईश्वरस्य समीपं यास्यति च, सर्व्वाण्येतानि ज्ञात्वा रजन्यां भोजने सम्पूर्णे सति,
3 But Jesus knew that his Father had given to him complete authority [to control the situation]. He knew that he had come from God and would soon return to God.
यदा शैतान् तं परहस्तेषु समर्पयितुं शिमोनः पुत्रस्य ईष्कारियोतियस्य यिहूदा अन्तःकरणे कुप्रवृत्तिं समार्पयत्,
4 [But before he left us, he wanted to show us how we should love each other]. [So] he got up from where he was eating. He took off his [outer] cloak and wrapped a [long] towel around his waist, [as a slave would do].
तदा यीशु र्भोजनासनाद् उत्थाय गात्रवस्त्रं मोचयित्वा गात्रमार्जनवस्त्रं गृहीत्वा तेन स्वकटिम् अबध्नात्,
5 Then he poured some water in a basin. He began to wash our feet, and then dry them with the towel that he had wrapped around himself.
पश्चाद् एकपात्रे जलम् अभिषिच्य शिष्याणां पादान् प्रक्षाल्य तेन कटिबद्धगात्रमार्जनवाससा मार्ष्टुं प्रारभत।
6 When he came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, “Lord, it is not right for you [RHQ] to [humble yourself by] washing my feet!”
ततः शिमोन्पितरस्य समीपमागते स उक्तवान् हे प्रभो भवान् किं मम पादौ प्रक्षालयिष्यति?
7 Jesus replied to him, “Now you do not understand [the meaning of] what I am doing, but you will understand later.”
यीशुरुदितवान् अहं यत् करोमि तत् सम्प्रति न जानासि किन्तु पश्चाज् ज्ञास्यसि।
8 Peter said, “I will never, ever, [allow you to] wash my feet!” Jesus replied to him, “If I do not wash you, you cannot continue (to be my [disciple/to belong to] me).” (aiōn g165)
ततः पितरः कथितवान् भवान् कदापि मम पादौ न प्रक्षालयिष्यति। यीशुरकथयद् यदि त्वां न प्रक्षालये तर्हि मयि तव कोप्यंशो नास्ति। (aiōn g165)
9 So Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, [in that case], do not wash only my feet. Wash my hands and my head, [too]!”
तदा शिमोन्पितरः कथितवान् हे प्रभो तर्हि केवलपादौ न, मम हस्तौ शिरश्च प्रक्षालयतु।
10 [Then, to show him that after God had cleansed people from being guilty for sin, they needed only for God to forgive their daily sins] [MET], Jesus said to him, “Those who have recently bathed need only to have their feet washed, [because they get dirty very quickly on the dusty roads]. The [rest of their bodies are] clean. Similarly, I have made you [disciples] free/clean [from the guilt of your sins], although not all of you are free from guilt.”
ततो यीशुरवदद् यो जनो धौतस्तस्य सर्व्वाङ्गपरिष्कृतत्वात् पादौ विनान्याङ्गस्य प्रक्षालनापेक्षा नास्ति। यूयं परिष्कृता इति सत्यं किन्तु न सर्व्वे,
11 He knew which one [of us] was going to betray him. That is the reason he said, “Not all of you are free from guilt.”
यतो यो जनस्तं परकरेषु समर्पयिष्यति तं स ज्ञातवान; अतएव यूयं सर्व्वे न परिष्कृता इमां कथां कथितवान्।
12 After he finished washing our feet, he put his cloak back on. Then he sat down and said to us, “Do you understand what I have done for you?
इत्थं यीशुस्तेषां पादान् प्रक्षाल्य वस्त्रं परिधायासने समुपविश्य कथितवान् अहं युष्मान् प्रति किं कर्म्माकार्षं जानीथ?
13 You [show that you respect me by] calling me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord’. You are right to say that, because I am your teacher and your Lord.
यूयं मां गुरुं प्रभुञ्च वदथ तत् सत्यमेव वदथ यतोहं सएव भवामि।
14 But if I, who am your teacher and your Lord, have washed your feet, you ought to [serve each other by doing things like] washing each other’s feet.
यद्यहं प्रभु र्गुरुश्च सन् युष्माकं पादान् प्रक्षालितवान् तर्हि युष्माकमपि परस्परं पादप्रक्षालनम् उचितम्।
15 I have made myself an example for you in order that you should [humbly serve each other] as I have done for you.
अहं युष्मान् प्रति यथा व्यवाहरं युष्मान् तथा व्यवहर्त्तुम् एकं पन्थानं दर्शितवान्।
16 Listen to this carefully: A servant is not greater than his master. A messenger is not greater than the one who has sent him. [So, since you are not greater than I am, you should not be proud and unwilling to serve each other].
अहं युष्मानतियथार्थं वदामि, प्रभो र्दासो न महान् प्रेरकाच्च प्रेरितो न महान्।
17 Since you now know these things, [God will] be pleased with you if you do them.”
इमां कथां विदित्वा यदि तदनुसारतः कर्म्माणि कुरुथ तर्हि यूयं धन्या भविष्यथ।
18 “I am not saying that [God will bless] all of you. I knew [what all of you were like when] I chose you. But [I also chose the one who will betray me], in order that what is written in Scripture might be fulfilled {to fulfill what someone/the psalmist wrote in Scripture}, ‘The one who is [acting like he is my friend by] eating with me has become my enemy [IDM].’
सर्व्वेषु युष्मासु कथामिमां कथयामि इति न, ये मम मनोनीतास्तानहं जानामि, किन्तु मम भक्ष्याणि यो भुङ्क्ते मत्प्राणप्रातिकूल्यतः। उत्थापयति पादस्य मूलं स एष मानवः।यदेतद् धर्म्मपुस्तकस्य वचनं तदनुसारेणावश्यं घटिष्यते।
19 I am telling you [about someone betraying me] before it happens, in order that when it happens, you may continue to believe that I am ([the Messiah/who I say I am]).
अहं स जन इत्यत्र यथा युष्माकं विश्वासो जायते तदर्थं एतादृशघटनात् पूर्व्वम् अहमिदानीं युष्मभ्यमकथयम्।
20 Listen to this carefully: Those who accept any one of you whom I am sending out, [God will consider that] they are accepting me. And those who accept me, [God will consider that] they are accepting [my Father], who sent me.”
अहं युष्मानतीव यथार्थं वदामि, मया प्रेरितं जनं यो गृह्लाति स मामेव गृह्लाति यश्च मां गृह्लाति स मत्प्रेरकं गृह्लाति।
21 After Jesus said this, he was very troubled. He solemnly declared, “Listen to this carefully: One of you is going to enable [my enemies] to seize me.”
एतां कथां कथयित्वा यीशु र्दुःखी सन् प्रमाणं दत्त्वा कथितवान् अहं युष्मानतियथार्थं वदामि युष्माकम् एको जनो मां परकरेषु समर्पयिष्यति।
22 We looked at each other. We had no way [to know] whom he was talking about.
ततः स कमुद्दिश्य कथामेतां कथितवान् इत्यत्र सन्दिग्धाः शिष्याः परस्परं मुखमालोकयितुं प्रारभन्त।
23 [I], the [man other people call] ‘the one Jesus loved’, was sitting very close to Jesus.
तस्मिन् समये यीशु र्यस्मिन् अप्रीयत स शिष्यस्तस्य वक्षःस्थलम् अवालम्बत।
24 Simon Peter motioned to me to indicate that I should ask Jesus whom he was talking about.
शिमोन्पितरस्तं सङ्केतेनावदत्, अयं कमुद्दिश्य कथामेताम् कथयतीति पृच्छ।
25 So I leaned close to Jesus and asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
तदा स यीशो र्वक्षःस्थलम् अवलम्ब्य पृष्ठवान्, हे प्रभो स जनः कः?
26 Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread after I dip it [in the sauce in the dish].” Then, [to show us that he knew who would enable his enemies to seize him], after he dipped the bread [in the sauce], he gave it to Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]).
ततो यीशुः प्रत्यवदद् एकखण्डं पूपं मज्जयित्वा यस्मै दास्यामि सएव सः; पश्चात् पूपखण्डमेकं मज्जयित्वा शिमोनः पुत्राय ईष्करियोतीयाय यिहूदै दत्तवान्।
27 As soon as [Judas ate] the bread, Satan took control of him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you are going to do, do quickly.”
तस्मिन् दत्ते सति शैतान् तमाश्रयत्; तदा यीशुस्तम् अवदत् त्वं यत् करिष्यसि तत् क्षिप्रं कुरु।
28 But none of the rest of us who were sitting there knew why Jesus said that to him.
किन्तु स येनाशयेन तां कथामकथायत् तम् उपविष्टलोकानां कोपि नाबुध्यत;
29 Since Judas took care of the money [people gave us to help us], some thought Jesus was telling him to [go and] buy some things we needed for the [Passover] celebration. [Some thought he was telling him] to give some money to poor people.
किन्तु यिहूदाः समीपे मुद्रासम्पुटकस्थितेः केचिद् इत्थम् अबुध्यन्त पार्व्वणासादनार्थं किमपि द्रव्यं क्रेतुं वा दरिद्रेभ्यः किञ्चिद् वितरितुं कथितवान्।
30 As soon as Judas had eaten the bread, he left. It was dark [outside], and it was dark [MET] [in his soul, too].
तदा पूपखण्डग्रहणात् परं स तूर्णं बहिरगच्छत्; रात्रिश्च समुपस्यिता।
31 After Judas left, Jesus said, “Now it will be shown {[my Father] will show} how wonderful I, the one who came from heaven, am. And by what I do it will be seen {people will see} how great God is.
यिहूदे बहिर्गते यीशुरकथयद् इदानीं मानवसुतस्य महिमा प्रकाशते तेनेश्वरस्यापि महिमा प्रकाशते।
32 Since by what I do people will see how awesome God is, God himself will show people how awesome I am. And he will do that very soon.
यदि तेनेश्वरस्य महिमा प्रकाशते तर्हीश्वरोपि स्वेन तस्य महिमानं प्रकाशयिष्यति तूर्णमेव प्रकाशयिष्यति।
33 [You whom I love as though you were] my children, I will continue with you only a short time longer. Then you will look for me, but I will not be here. Just like I told the Jewish [leaders] [SYN], I am telling you now, that where I am going, you cannot come [yet].
हे वत्सा अहं युष्माभिः सार्द्धं किञ्चित्कालमात्रम् आसे, ततः परं मां मृगयिष्यध्वे किन्त्वहं यत्स्थानं यामि तत्स्थानं यूयं गन्तुं न शक्ष्यथ, यामिमां कथां यिहूदीयेभ्यः कथितवान् तथाधुना युष्मभ्यमपि कथयामि।
34 Now I am giving you a new commandment: You must love each other. You must love each other in the way that I have loved you.
यूयं परस्परं प्रीयध्वम् अहं युष्मासु यथा प्रीये यूयमपि परस्परम् तथैव प्रीयध्वं, युष्मान् इमां नवीनाम् आज्ञाम् आदिशामि।
35 If you keep loving each other, everyone [who is aware of that] [HYP] will know that you are my disciples.”
तेनैव यदि परस्परं प्रीयध्वे तर्हि लक्षणेनानेन यूयं मम शिष्या इति सर्व्वे ज्ञातुं शक्ष्यन्ति।
36 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied, “The place where I am going, you cannot come with me now, but you will come there later.”
शिमोनपितरः पृष्ठवान् हे प्रभो भवान् कुत्र यास्यति? ततो यीशुः प्रत्यवदत्, अहं यत्स्थानं यामि तत्स्थानं साम्प्रतं मम पश्चाद् गन्तुं न शक्नोषि किन्तु पश्चाद् गमिष्यसि।
37 Peter said, “Lord, why can I not come with you now? I [am ready] to die for you!”
तदा पितरः प्रत्युदितवान्, हे प्रभो साम्प्रतं कुतो हेतोस्तव पश्चाद् गन्तुं न शक्नोमि? त्वदर्थं प्राणान् दातुं शक्नोमि।
38 Jesus answered, “[You say] [RHQ] that you [are ready] to die for me. But the truth is that before the rooster crows [early tomorrow morning], you will say three times that you do not [know] me!”
ततो यीशुः प्रत्युक्तवान् मन्निमित्तं किं प्राणान् दातुं शक्नोषि? त्वामहं यथार्थं वदामि, कुक्कुटरवणात् पूर्व्वं त्वं त्रि र्माम् अपह्नोष्यसे।
