< John 7 >

1 After those things happened, Jesus went around in Galilee [province]. He did not want to travel in Judea [province], because he knew that the Jewish [leaders there] were wanting to kill him.
यानंतर येशू गालील प्रांतात फिरू लागला, कारण यहूदी अधिकारी त्यास ठार मारायला पाहत होते. म्हणून त्यास यहूदीया प्रांतात फिरावेसे वाटले नाही.
2 But when the time of the Jewish celebration [called] ‘Celebration of [Living in] Shelters’ was near,
यहूद्यांचा मंडपाचा सण जवळ आला होता.
3 Jesus’ [younger] brothers said to him, “[Since many people] here [have left you], you should leave and go to Judea [province and perform] some miracles there, so that your disciples may see them!
म्हणून त्याचे भाऊ त्यास म्हणाले, “तू इथून नीघ आणि यहूदीया प्रांतात जा, म्हणजे तू करतोस ती तुझी कामे तुझ्या शिष्यांनीही पाहावीत.
4 No one who wants to become famous does things secretly. [You say] you are doing these miracles, [so do some miracles there] so that everyone [MTY] can see them!”
जो कोणी प्रसिद्ध होऊ पाहतो तो गुप्तपणे काही करत नाही. तू या गोष्टी करीत असशील तर स्वतः जगाला प्रकट हो.”
5 [They said this critically], because even [though they were] his own [younger] brothers, they did not believe he [was from God].
कारण त्याचे भाऊही त्याच्यावर विश्वास ठेवत नव्हते.
6 So Jesus said to them, “It is not yet time for me [MTY] [to go to the celebration]. For you, any time is right [to go to the celebration].
त्यावरून येशू त्यांना म्हणाला, “सणाला जाण्याची माझी वेळ अजून आलेली नाही; तुमची वेळ तर सर्वदा सिद्ध आहे.
7 [The people] [MTY] [who] ([do not believe in me/do not belong to God]) cannot hate you, but they hate me because I tell them that what they are doing is evil.
जगाने तुमचा द्वेष करवा हे शक्य नाही; पण ते माझा द्वेष करते, कारण मी त्याच्याविषयी साक्ष देतो की, त्यांची कामे वाईट आहेत.
8 You [(pl)] go ahead to the celebration. I am not going up [to Jerusalem] to the celebration [yet], because now is not the right time for me [to go].”
तुम्ही सणाला वर जा. मी या सणाला आताच वर जात नाही कारण माझी वेळ अजून पूर्ण झालेली नाही.”
9 After he said that, Jesus stayed [a little longer] in Galilee.
असे त्यांना सांगून तो गालील प्रांतात राहिला.
10 However, [a few days] after his younger brothers left to go up to the celebration, he went also. He went, along with [us] disciples, but no others went with us.
१०पण त्याचे भाऊ सणाला वर गेल्यानंतर तोसुध्दा, उघडपणे न जाता गुप्तपणे वर गेला.
11 At the celebration, the Jewish [leaders] were looking for him. They were asking people, “Has Jesus come?”
११तेव्हा, यहूदी त्यास सणात शोधीत होते आणि म्हणत होते, “तो आहे तरी कोठे?”
12 Among the crowds, many people were whispering about Jesus. Some were saying, “He is a good man!” But others were saying instead, “No! He is deceiving the crowds!”
१२आणि लोकांतही त्याच्याविषयी पुष्कळ कुजबुज सुरू झाली. कोणी म्हणत होते, “तो चांगला आहेः” दुसरे कोणी म्हणत होते, “नाही, तो लोकांस फसवतो.”
13 But no one was speaking so that others could hear them, because they were afraid of the Jewish [leaders] [SYN].
१३तरी यहूद्यांच्या भीतीमुळे कोणीही त्याच्याविषयी उघडपणे बोलत नसे.
14 In the middle of the days of the celebration, Jesus went to the Temple [courtyard] and began to teach people.
१४मग सण अर्धा आटोपल्यावर येशू वर परमेश्वराच्या भवनात जाऊन शिक्षण देऊ लागला.
15 The Jewish [elders] were amazed [at what he was saying]. They said, “This man never studied [in one of our religious schools]! So (how can he have learned [so much about Scripture]?/it is difficult for us to believe that he has learned [so much about Scripture]!) [RHQ]”
१५तेव्हा यहूदी आश्चर्य करून म्हणू लागले, “शिकल्यावाचून याला विद्या कशी आली?”
16 Jesus replied to them, “What I teach does not come from myself. It comes from [God], the one who sent me.
१६त्यावरून येशूने त्यांना उत्तर देऊन म्हटले, “माझी शिकवण माझी नाही तर ज्याने मला पाठविले त्याची आहे.
17 Those who choose to do what God wants will find out whether what I teach comes from God or whether I am speaking with [only] my own [authority].
१७जो कोणी त्याच्या इच्छेप्रमाणे करण्याची इच्छा बाळगील त्यालाही शिकवण देवापासून आहे किंवा मी आपल्या मनाचे बोलतो हे समजेल.
18 Those who speak with [only] their own [authority] do that [only] so that others will honor them. But I am [doing things so that others] will honor the one who sent me, and I am someone who speaks the truth. I never lie.
१८जो आपल्या मनाचे बोलतो, तो स्वतःचाच गौरव करतो, परंतु आपणाला ज्याने पाठवले त्याचे गौरव जो पाहतो तो मनुष्य खरा आहे व त्याच्यामध्ये अनीती नाही.
19 [Think about] the laws that Moses gave you [RHQ]. None of you [completely] obeys those laws. So why are you trying to kill me, [saying I do not obey the laws concerning] ([the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest])?”
१९मोशेने तुम्हास नियमशास्त्र दिले की नाही? तर तुम्ही कोणीही नियमशास्त्र पाळीत नाही. तुम्ही मला ठार मारायला का पाहता?”
20 Someone in the crowd answered, “[By saying this you show that] you are crazy (OR, A demon is controlling you)! Certainly no one is trying to kill you!”
२०लोकांनी त्यास उत्तर देऊन म्हटले, “तुला भूत लागले आहे. तुला ठार मारायला कोण पाहतो?”
21 Jesus replied to them, “Because I did a miracle [of healing someone] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), you are all shocked.
२१येशूने त्यांना उत्तर देऊन म्हटले, “मी एक कृत्य केले व त्यामुळे तुम्ही सर्व आश्चर्य करता.
22 Moses gave you [a law that you must] circumcise [the male children and that you must do that exactly seven days after they are born. Actually], it was your ancestors, [Abraham and Isaac and Jacob], not Moses, who [started that ritual]. But because of that law, you sometimes circumcise them (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), [but that is working, too]
२२मोशेने तुम्हास सुंता लावून दिली (तरी ती मोशेपासून नाही, पण पूर्वजांपासून आहे.) आणि तुम्ही शब्बाथ दिवशी मनुष्याची सुंता करता.
23 You [sometimes] circumcise boys (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) so that the law of Moses is not disobeyed {[you] do not disobey the law of Moses}, so (it is ridiculous that you are angry with me, saying [I worked] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) by healing a man!/why are you angry with me, saying [I worked] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) by healing a man?) [RHQ] [Healing someone is far more helpful than circumcising a baby boy]!
२३मोशेचे नियमशास्त्र मोडू नये म्हणून मनुष्याची सुंता जर शब्बाथ दिवशी होते तर, तर मी शब्बाथ दिवशी एका मनुष्यास अगदी बरे केले यामुळे तुम्ही माझ्यावर रागावता काय?
24 Stop deciding whether my healing this man is wrong according to what you see! Instead, decide according to what is really the right action [to help people]”!
२४तोंड पाहून न्याय करू नका तर यथार्थ न्याय करा.”
25 Some of the people from Jerusalem were saying, “(This is the man that they are trying to kill!/Isn’t this the man that they are trying to kill?) [RHQ]
२५यावरुन यरूशलेमकरांपैकी कित्येकजण म्हणू लागले, “ज्याला ठार मारायला पाहतात तो हाच ना?
26 He is saying these things (publicly/in front of many people), but our [Jewish] rulers are not saying anything to [oppose] him. Is that because they have decided that he is truly (the Messiah/God’s chosen king)?
२६पाहा, तो उघडपणे बोलत आहे आणि ते त्यास काहीच बोलत नाहीत. हाच ख्रिस्त आहे, हे खरोखर अधिकार्‍यांना कळले आहे काय?
27 But [he cannot be the Messiah, because] we know where this man came from. When the Messiah really comes, no one will know where he comes from.”
२७तरी हा कुठला आहे हे आम्हास ठाऊक आहे; पण ख्रिस्त येईल तेव्हा तो कोठला आहे हे कोणालाही कळणार नाही.”
28 [They said that because they thought Jesus was born in Nazareth]. So while Jesus was teaching [people] in the Temple [courtyard], he shouted, “Yes, [you say that] you know me, and [you think] you know [IRO] where I am from. But I have come here not (because I appointed myself/with my own authority). Instead, [God] is the one who truly sent me. You do not know him.
२८यावरुन येशू परमेश्वराच्या भवनात शिक्षण देत असता मोठ्याने म्हणाला, “तुम्ही मला ओळखता आणि मी कुठला आहे हे तुम्ही जाणता; तरीही मी आपण होऊन आलो नाही; ज्याने मला पाठवले तो खरा आहे त्यास तुम्ही ओळखत नाही.
29 But I know him, because I have come from him. He is the one who sent me!”
२९मी तर त्यास ओळखतो, कारण मी त्याच्यापासून आहे व त्याने मला पाठवले आहे.”
30 Then they tried to seize him [because he said that he had come from God]. But no one put their hands on him [to do that], because it was not yet the time [MTY] [for him to die].
३०यावरुन ते त्यास धरण्यास पाहत होते, तरी कोणी त्याच्यावर हात टाकला नाही, कारण त्याची वेळ अजून आली नव्हती.
31 But many of the crowd believed that he [had come from God]. They said, “When the Messiah comes, he certainly will not do more miracles than this man has done, will he?”
३१तेव्हा लोकसमुदायातील पुष्कळांनी त्याच्यावर विश्वास ठेवला व ते म्हणू लागले, “ख्रिस्त येईल तेव्हा याने केलेल्या चिन्हांपेक्षा तो काही अधिक काय करणार आहे?”
32 The Pharisees heard them whispering these things about him. So they and the chief priests sent some Temple guards to seize him.
३२लोकसमुदाय त्याच्याविषयी अशी कुजबुज करत आहे हे परूश्यांच्या कानावर गेले आणि मुख्य याजक लोक व परूश्यांनी त्यास धरण्यास कामदार पाठवले.
33 Then Jesus said, “I will be with you for only a short time. Then I will return to the one who sent me.
३३यावरुन येशू त्यांना म्हणाला, “मी आणखी थोडा वेळ तुमच्याबरोबर आहे मग ज्याने मला पाठवले त्याच्याकडे मी निघून जाणार आहे.
34 Then you will search for me, but you will not find me. And you will not be able to come to the place where I am.”
३४तुम्ही माझा शोध कराल तरी मी तुम्हास सापडणार नाही आणि जेथे मी असेन तेथे तुम्ही येऊ शकणार नाही.”
35 So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said to themselves, “Where is this man about to go with the result that we will not be able to find him? [Some Jewish people have] dispersed [and live] among Greek people. He is not intending to go [and live among them] and teach them, is he?
३५यामुळे यहूदी आपसात म्हणाले, “हा आपल्याला सापडणार नाही असा हा कोठे जाईल? हा ग्रीकमधील आपल्या पांगलेल्या यहूदी लोकांस जाऊन त्यांस शिकवील काय?
36 When he said ‘You will search for me, but you will not be able to find me,’ and when he said ‘You will not be able to come to the place where I am,’ what [did he mean]?”
३६हा जे म्हणतो की, ‘तुम्ही माझा शोध कराल आणि मी तुम्हास सापडणार नाही आणि मी असेन तिथे तुम्ही येऊ शकणार नाही,’ हे म्हणणे काय आहे?”
37 [On each of the seven days of the celebration, the high priest poured out some water on the altar in the Temple to remember how God provided water for the people in the desolate area long ago. But the water he poured did not help anyone who was thirsty. So] on the last day of the festival, which was the most important day, Jesus stood up [in the Temple courtyard] and said with a loud voice, “Those who are thirsty should come to me to drink [what I will give them].
३७मग सणाच्या शेवटल्या दिवशी म्हणजे मोठ्या दिवशी, येशू उभा राहून मोठ्याने म्हणाला, “कोणी तहानलेला असेल तर त्याने माझ्याकडे यावे आणि प्यावे.
38 Just like the Scriptures teach, streams of water shall flow out from within those who believe in me, and that water will cause them to live [eternally].”
३८जो माझ्यावर विश्वास ठेवतो त्याच्या अंतःकरणातून शास्त्रलेखात सांगितल्याप्रमाणे जिवंत पाण्याच्या नद्या वाहतील.”
39 When Jesus said that, he was referring to [God’s] Spirit, whom those who believed in Jesus would receive later. Up to that time God had not sent the Spirit [to live within believers], because Jesus had not yet [died and returned to his] glorious [home in] heaven, [from where he would send the Spirit].
३९ज्यांनी त्याच्यावर विश्वास ठेवला त्यांना जो आत्मा मिळणार होता, त्याच्याविषयी त्याने हे म्हटले. तोपर्यंत पवित्र आत्मा दिलेला नव्हता, कारण अजून येशूचे गौरव झाले नव्हते.
40 When some of the crowd heard those words, they said, “Surely this man is the prophet [whom God promised to send who would be like Moses]!”
४०लोकसमुदायातील कित्येकजण हे शब्द ऐकून म्हणत होते, “खरोखर, हा तो संदेष्टा आहे.”
41 Others said, “He is the Messiah!” But others, [thinking Jesus was born in Galilee], said, “The Messiah will not come from Galilee [province], will he?
४१कित्येक म्हणाले, “हा ख्रिस्त आहे.” दुसरे कित्येक म्हणाले, “ख्रिस्त गालील प्रांतातून येणार आहे काय?
42 (Did [a prophet] not write in the Scriptures that the Messiah will come from [King] David’s family, and be born in Bethlehem, where [King] David lived?/[It is written] in the Scriptures that the Messiah will come from [King] David’s family, and be born in Bethlehem, where [King] David lived!) [RHQ]”
४२दाविदाच्या वंशाचा आणि ज्या गावात दावीद होता त्या बेथलेहेमातून ख्रिस्त येईल अस शास्त्रलेख म्हणत नाही काय?”
43 So the people were divided because of [what they thought about] Jesus.
४३यावरुन त्याच्यामुळे लोकात फूट झाली.
44 Some people wanted to seize him, but no one tried [to do that].
४४त्यांच्यातील कित्येकजण त्यास धरायला पाहत होते, तरी कोणी त्याच्यावर हात टाकले नाहीत.
45 So the Temple guards returned to the chief priests and the Pharisees, [the ones who had sent them to arrest Jesus]. They said to the guards, “Why did you not [seize him and] bring him [here]?”
४५मग कामदार मुख्य याजकांकडे व परूश्यांकडे आले, तेव्हा ते त्यांना म्हणाले, “तुम्ही त्यास का आणले नाही?”
46 They replied, “No one ever spoke such [amazing things] as this man does!”
४६कामदारांनी उत्तर दिले, “कोणीही मनुष्य त्याच्यासारखा कधी बोलला नाही.”
47 Then the Pharisees replied, “Have you been deceived {Has [he] deceived you}, too?
४७तेव्हा परूश्यांनी त्यांना उत्तर दिले, “तुम्हीपण फसलात काय?
48 (None of our rulers nor any of us Pharisees have believed that (he [is the Messiah]!/he [came from God]!)/Have any of our [Jewish] rulers or any of us Pharisees believed that (he [is the Messiah]?/he [came from God]?)) [RHQ]
४८अधिकार्‍यांपैकी किंवा परूश्यांपैकी कोणी त्याच्यावर विश्वास ठेवला आहे काय?
49 Not one! But, on the contrary, some of this crowd [have believed in him]. They do not know [the true teachings of] our laws! They will go to hell [for listening to him]!” (questioned)
४९पण हा जो लोकसमुदाय नियमशास्त्र जाणत नाही तो शापित आहे.”
50 Then Nicodemus spoke. He was the one who earlier went to Jesus [at night]. He was also a member of the Jewish council. He said to [the rest of the Council members],
५०पूर्वी त्याच्याकडे आलेला आणि त्यांच्यातला एक असलेला निकदेम त्यांना म्हणाला.
51 “[We] have not listened to what he says to find out what he is doing. (It is not permitted in our [Jewish] law [PRS] for us to say, before questioning someone, that we must punish him!/Is it permitted in our [Jewish] law [PRS] for us to say, before questioning someone, that we must punish him?) [RHQ]”
५१“एखाद्या मनुष्याचे ऐकण्याअगोदर आणि तो काय करतो याची माहीती करून घेतल्यावाचून आपले नियमशास्त्र त्याचा न्याय करते काय?”
52 They replied to him, “(Are you another [disgusting person] from Galilee?/[You talk like] another [disgusting person] from Galilee!) [RHQ] Read [what is written in the Scriptures] You will find that no prophet comes from Galilee [province, like he does]!”
५२त्यांनी त्यास उत्तर देऊन म्हटले, “तुम्हीपण गालील प्रांतातले आहात काय? शोधा आणि बघा, कारण गालील प्रांतातून संदेष्टा उद्भवत नाही.”
53 [Then they all left and went to their own homes.
५३मग ते सर्वजण आपआपल्या घरी गेले.
