Luke 17
1 [One day Jesus] said to his disciples, “Things that will tempt [people] to sin are certain to happen, but it will be terrible for anyone who causes them to happen!
१फिर उसने अपने चेलों से कहा, “यह निश्चित है कि वे बातें जो पाप का कारण है, आएँगे परन्तु हाय, उस मनुष्य पर जिसके कारण वे आती है!
2 Suppose you caused one of these people who [do not believe in me very strongly] to sin. If a huge stone was fastened {someone fastened a huge stone} around your neck and you were thrown {and threw you} into the sea, [you would consider that a severe punishment, but God will punish] you even more severely [if you cause someone to sin!]
२जो इन छोटों में से किसी एक को ठोकर खिलाता है, उसके लिये यह भला होता कि चक्की का पाट उसके गले में लटकाया जाता, और वह समुद्र में डाल दिया जाता।
3 Be careful [how you act]. If you [know about] a fellow believer who sins, you [(sg)] should rebuke him. If he [says that he] is sorry for having sinned [and asks you to forgive him], forgive him.
३सचेत रहो; यदि तेरा भाई अपराध करे तो उसे डाँट, और यदि पछताए तो उसे क्षमा कर।
4 Even if he sins against you [(sg)] seven times in one day, if he comes to you each time and says, ‘I am sorry for what I did’, you must continue forgiving him.”
४यदि दिन भर में वह सात बार तेरा अपराध करे और सातों बार तेरे पास फिर आकर कहे, कि मैं पछताता हूँ, तो उसे क्षमा कर।”
5 [One day] the apostles said to the Lord, “Help us to trust [in you] (OR, [in God]) more strongly!”
५तब प्रेरितों ने प्रभु से कहा, “हमारा विश्वास बढ़ा।”
6 The Lord replied, “Mustard [seeds are very small, but in this area they grow and produce large] [MET] [plants]. [Similarly], if your faith grows until you truly believe that God [will do what you ask him to, you will be able to do anything]. You could [even] say to this mulberry tree, ‘Pull yourself out [with your roots] and plant yourself in the sea!’ and it would obey you!”
६प्रभु ने कहा, “यदि तुम को राई के दाने के बराबर भी विश्वास होता, तो तुम इस शहतूत के पेड़ से कहते कि जड़ से उखड़कर समुद्र में लग जा, तो वह तुम्हारी मान लेता।
7 [Jesus also said], “Suppose that one of you had a servant who was plowing [your fields] or taking care of your sheep. After he comes into the house from the field, you [(sg)] would not say [RHQ], ‘Sit down and eat immediately!’
७“पर तुम में से ऐसा कौन है, जिसका दास हल जोतता, या भेड़ें चराता हो, और जब वह खेत से आए, तो उससे कहे, ‘तुरन्त आकर भोजन करने बैठ’?
8 Instead, you would say to him, ‘Put on your apron and prepare a meal for me! Then serve it to me so that I can eat and drink! Afterwards you [(sg)] can eat and drink.’
८क्या वह उनसे न कहेगा, कि मेरा खाना तैयार कर: और जब तक मैं खाऊँ-पीऊँ तब तक कमर बाँधकर मेरी सेवा कर; इसके बाद तू भी खा पी लेना?
9 (You will not thank your servant for doing the work that he had been told {you had told him} to do!/Would you thank your servant because he did the work that he had been told {you had told him} to do?) [RHQ]
९क्या वह उस दास का एहसान मानेगा, कि उसने वे ही काम किए जिसकी आज्ञा दी गई थी?
10 Similarly, when you [(pl)] have done everything that [God] has told you to do, you should say, ‘We [(inc)] are not worthy [of God thanking us] {[being thanked]}. We are only God’s servants. We have only done the things that he told us to do.’”
१०इसी रीति से तुम भी, जब उन सब कामों को कर चुके हो जिसकी आज्ञा तुम्हें दी गई थी, तो कहो, ‘हम निकम्मे दास हैं; कि जो हमें करना चाहिए था वही किया है।’”
11 As [Jesus and his disciples] were walking along the road to Jerusalem, they were going through [the region] between Samaria and Galilee [districts].
११और ऐसा हुआ कि वह यरूशलेम को जाते हुए सामरिया और गलील प्रदेश की सीमा से होकर जा रहा था।
12 As they entered one village, ten lepers came near the road. [Because lepers were not permitted to come near other people], they stood at some distance
१२और किसी गाँव में प्रवेश करते समय उसे दस कोढ़ी मिले।
13 and called out, “Jesus, Master, pity us [and heal us]!”
१३और उन्होंने दूर खड़े होकर, ऊँचे शब्द से कहा, “हे यीशु, हे स्वामी, हम पर दया कर!”
14 When he saw them, he said [to them], “Each of you should go and show yourself to a priest [in Jerusalem so that he can see if you are healed].” As they were going [there], they were healed.
१४उसने उन्हें देखकर कहा, “जाओ; और अपने आपको याजकों को दिखाओ।” और जाते ही जाते वे शुद्ध हो गए।
15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God loudly.
१५तब उनमें से एक यह देखकर कि मैं चंगा हो गया हूँ, ऊँचे शब्द से परमेश्वर की बड़ाई करता हुआ लौटा;
16 He [came to Jesus], prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet, and thanked him. This man was a Samaritan, [not a Jew].
१६और यीशु के पाँवों पर मुँह के बल गिरकर उसका धन्यवाद करने लगा; और वह सामरी था।
17 Then Jesus said, “[I] healed ten [lepers] (I am disappointed that the other nine did not come back!/Where are the other nine?) [RHQ]
१७इस पर यीशु ने कहा, “क्या दसों शुद्ध न हुए, तो फिर वे नौ कहाँ हैं?
18 I am disappointed [RHQ] that this non-Jewish man was the only one who returned to thank God; none of the others came back to me!”
१८क्या इस परदेशी को छोड़ कोई और न निकला, जो परमेश्वर की बड़ाई करता?”
19 Then he said to the man, “Get up and continue on your journey. [God] [PRS] [has saved you and] healed you [(sg)] because you trusted [in me].”
१९तब उसने उससे कहा, “उठकर चला जा; तेरे विश्वास ने तुझे चंगा किया है।”
20 [One day] Jesus was asked by [some] Pharisees [SYN] {[some] Pharisees [SYN] asked [Jesus]}, “When is God [going] to rule as king?” He replied, “God’s ruling [MET] is not something people will be able to see with their eyes.
२०जब फरीसियों ने उससे पूछा, कि परमेश्वर का राज्य कब आएगा? तो उसने उनको उत्तर दिया, “परमेश्वर का राज्य प्रगट रूप में नहीं आता।
21 And people will not be able to say, ‘Look! He is [ruling] here!’ Or ‘He is [ruling] over there!’ because, [contrary to what you think], God’s ruling is people’s inner beings (OR, is already happening among you).”
२१और लोग यह न कहेंगे, कि देखो, यहाँ है, या वहाँ है। क्योंकि, परमेश्वर का राज्य तुम्हारे बीच में है।”
22 [Jesus] said to his disciples, “There will be a time when you will want to see [me] [MTY], the one who came from heaven, [ruling powerfully]. But you will not see that.
२२और उसने चेलों से कहा, “वे दिन आएँगे, जिनमें तुम मनुष्य के पुत्र के दिनों में से एक दिन को देखना चाहोगे, और नहीं देखने पाओगे।
23 [Some] people will say to you, ‘Look, [the Messiah] is over there!’ or [they will say] ‘Look, he is here!’ When they say that, do not believe them. Do not follow them [to go see the Messiah].
२३लोग तुम से कहेंगे, ‘देखो, वहाँ है!’ या ‘देखो यहाँ है!’ परन्तु तुम चले न जाना और न उनके पीछे हो लेना।
24 Because when the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, [everyone can see it. Similarly] [SIM], at the time [MTY] when [I], the one who came from heaven, come back again, [everyone will see me].
२४क्योंकि जैसे बिजली आकाश की एक छोर से कौंधकर आकाश की दूसरी छोर तक चमकती है, वैसे ही मनुष्य का पुत्र भी अपने दिन में प्रगट होगा।
25 But before that happens, I must suffer in many ways (OR, very much). And I will be rejected by people {people will reject me}, [even though] they [have observed me doing good for people].
२५परन्तु पहले अवश्य है, कि वह बहुत दुःख उठाए, और इस युग के लोग उसे तुच्छ ठहराएँ।
26 But when [I], the one who came from heaven, [come again, people] will be doing things just like people were doing at the time when [MTY] Noah [lived].
२६जैसा नूह के दिनों में हुआ था, वैसा ही मनुष्य के पुत्र के दिनों में भी होगा।
27 [At that time] people ate and drank [as usual], and they got married [as usual], up until the day when Noah [and his family] entered the big boat. But then the flood came and destroyed all those [who were not in the boat].
२७जिस दिन तक नूह जहाज पर न चढ़ा, उस दिन तक लोग खाते-पीते थे, और उनमें विवाह-शादी होती थी; तब जल-प्रलय ने आकर उन सब को नाश किया।
28 Similarly, when Lot lived [in Sodom city], people [there] ate and drank [as usual]. They bought things and they sold things. They planted [crops] and they built [houses as usual].
२८और जैसा लूत के दिनों में हुआ था, कि लोग खाते-पीते लेन-देन करते, पेड़ लगाते और घर बनाते थे;
29 But on the day that Lot [and his family] left Sodom, fire and [burning] sulfur came down from the sky and destroyed all those [who stayed in the city].
२९परन्तु जिस दिन लूत सदोम से निकला, उस दिन आग और गन्धक आकाश से बरसी और सब को नाश कर दिया।
30 Similarly, when [I], the one who came from heaven, return to earth, [people will be unprepared] (OR, [enjoying normal life]).
३०मनुष्य के पुत्र के प्रगट होने के दिन भी ऐसा ही होगा।
31 On that day, those who are outside their houses, with all the things that they own inside [the houses], must not go [in] to take them away, [because there will not be enough time to do that]. Similarly, those who are working in a field must not go back home [to get anything]; [they must flee immediately].
३१“उस दिन जो छत पर हो; और उसका सामान घर में हो, वह उसे लेने को न उतरे, और वैसे ही जो खेत में हो वह पीछे न लौटे।
32 Remember Lot’s wife! [Because she turned back and wanted to get some of her things from Sodom, she died immediately and became a pillar of salt].
३२लूत की पत्नी को स्मरण रखो!
33 Anyone who wants to hold onto his life [and his possessions] will not [receive eternal] life. But anyone who is [willing to] die [for my sake] will live [eternally].
३३जो कोई अपना प्राण बचाना चाहे वह उसे खोएगा, और जो कोई उसे खोए वह उसे बचाएगा।
34 I tell you this: On the night [when I return], there will be two people [sleeping] in one bed. The one [who believes in me] will be taken {[God] will take the one [who believes in me]} [to heaven], and the other one will be left [behind and punished] {and [he] will leave the other one [behind and punish him]}.
३४मैं तुम से कहता हूँ, उस रात दो मनुष्य एक खाट पर होंगे, एक ले लिया जाएगा, और दूसरा छोड़ दिया जाएगा।
35 Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left {[God] will take one and leave the other} [behind].”
३५दो स्त्रियाँ एक साथ चक्की पीसती होंगी, एक ले ली जाएगी, और दूसरी छोड़ दी जाएगी।
३६[दो जन खेत में होंगे एक ले लिया जाएगा और दूसरा छोड़ा जाएगा।]”
37 [His disciples] said to him, “Lord, where [will this happen]?” He replied to them, “Wherever there is an animal carcass, the vultures will gather [to eat it] [MET]. [Similarly, wherever there are people who are spiritually dead, God will punish them].”
३७यह सुन उन्होंने उससे पूछा, “हे प्रभु यह कहाँ होगा?” उसने उनसे कहा, “जहाँ लाश हैं, वहाँ गिद्ध इकट्ठे होंगे।”
