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!
| اِتَح پَرَں یِیشُح شِشْیانْ اُواچَ، وِگھْنَیرَوَشْیَمْ آگَنْتَوْیَں کِنْتُ وِگھْنا یینَ گھَٹِشْیَنْتے تَسْیَ دُرْگَتِ رْبھَوِشْیَتِ۔ |
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!]
| ایتیشاں کْشُدْرَپْرانِنامْ ایکَسْیاپِ وِگھْنَجَنَناتْ کَنْٹھَبَدّھَپیشَنِیکَسْیَ تَسْیَ ساگَراگادھَجَلے مَجَّنَں بھَدْرَں۔ |
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.
| یُویَں سْویشُ ساوَدھاناسْتِشْٹھَتَ؛ تَوَ بھْراتا یَدِ تَوَ کِنْچِدْ اَپَرادھْیَتِ تَرْہِ تَں تَرْجَیَ، تینَ یَدِ مَنَح پَرِوَرْتَّیَتِ تَرْہِ تَں کْشَمَسْوَ۔ |
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.”
| پُنَریکَدِنَمَدھْیے یَدِ سَ تَوَ سَپْتَکرِتْووپَرادھْیَتِ کِنْتُ سَپْتَکرِتْوَ آگَتْیَ مَنَح پَرِوَرْتْیَ مَیاپَرادّھَمْ اِتِ وَدَتِ تَرْہِ تَں کْشَمَسْوَ۔ |
5 [One day] the apostles said to the Lord, “Help us to trust [in you] (OR, [in God]) more strongly!”
| تَدا پْریرِتاح پْرَبھُمْ اَوَدَنْ اَسْماکَں وِشْواسَں وَرْدّھَیَ۔ |
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!”
| پْرَبھُرُواچَ، یَدِ یُشْماکَں سَرْشَپَیکَپْرَمانو وِشْواسوسْتِ تَرْہِ تْوَں سَمُولَمُتْپاٹِتو بھُوتْوا سَمُدْرے روپِتو بھَوَ کَتھایامْ ایتَسْیامْ ایتَدُڈُمْبَرایَ کَتھِتایاں سَ یُشْماکَماجْناوَہو بھَوِشْیَتِ۔ |
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!’
| اَپَرَں سْوَداسے ہَلَں واہَیِتْوا وا پَشُونْ چارَیِتْوا کْشیتْرادْ آگَتے سَتِ تَں وَدَتِ، ایہِ بھوکْتُمُپَوِشَ، یُشْماکَمْ ایتادرِشَح کوسْتِ؟ |
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.’
| وَرَنْچَ پُورْوَّں مَمَ کھادْیَماسادْیَ یاوَدْ بھُنْجے پِوامِ چَ تاوَدْ بَدّھَکَٹِح پَرِچَرَ پَشْچاتْ تْوَمَپِ بھوکْشْیَسے پاسْیَسِ چَ کَتھامِیدرِشِیں کِں نَ وَکْشْیَتِ؟ |
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]
| تینَ داسینَ پْرَبھوراجْنانُرُوپے کَرْمَّنِ کرِتے پْرَبھُح کِں تَسْمِنْ بادھِتو جاتَح؟ نیتّھَں بُدھْیَتے مَیا۔ |
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.’”
| اِتّھَں نِرُوپِتیشُ سَرْوَّکَرْمَّسُ کرِتیشُ سَتْمُ یُویَمَپِیدَں واکْیَں وَدَتھَ، وَیَمْ اَنُپَکارِنو داسا اَسْمابھِرْیَدْیَتْکَرْتَّوْیَں تَنْماتْرَمیوَ کرِتَں۔ |
11 As [Jesus and his disciples] were walking along the road to Jerusalem, they were going through [the region] between Samaria and Galilee [districts].
| سَ یِرُوشالَمِ یاتْراں کُرْوَّنْ شومِرونْگالِیلْپْرَدیشَمَدھْیینَ گَچّھَتِ، |
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
| ایتَرْہِ کُتْرَچِدْ گْرامے پْرَویشَماتْرے دَشَکُشْٹھِنَسْتَں ساکْشاتْ کرِتْوا |
13 and called out, “Jesus, Master, pity us [and heal us]!”
| دُورے تِشْٹھَنَتَ اُچَّے رْوَکْتُماریبھِرے، ہے پْرَبھو یِیشو دَیَسْواسْمانْ۔ |
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.
| تَتَح سَ تانْ درِشْٹْوا جَگادَ، یُویَں یاجَکاناں سَمِیپے سْوانْ دَرْشَیَتَ، تَتَسْتے گَچّھَنْتو روگاتْ پَرِشْکرِتاح۔ |
15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God loudly.
| تَدا تیشامیکَح سْوَں سْوَسْتھَں درِشْٹْوا پْروچَّیرِیشْوَرَں دھَنْیَں وَدَنْ وْیاگھُٹْیایاتو یِیشو رْگُنانَنُوَدَنْ تَچَّرَنادھوبھُومَو پَپاتَ؛ |
16 He [came to Jesus], prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet, and thanked him. This man was a Samaritan, [not a Jew].
| سَ چاسِیتْ شومِرونِی۔ |
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]
| تَدا یِیشُرَوَدَتْ، دَشَجَناح کِں نَ پَرِشْکرِتاح؟ تَہْیَنْیے نَوَجَناح کُتْرَ؟ |
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!”
| اِیشْوَرَں دھَنْیَں وَدَنْتَمْ اینَں وِدیشِنَں وِنا کوپْیَنْیو نَ پْراپْیَتَ۔ |
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].”
| تَدا سَ تَمُواچَ، تْوَمُتّھایَ یاہِ وِشْواسَسْتے تْواں سْوَسْتھَں کرِتَوانْ۔ |
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.
| اَتھَ کَدیشْوَرَسْیَ راجَتْوَں بھَوِشْیَتِیتِ پھِرُوشِبھِح پرِشْٹے سَ پْرَتْیُواچَ، اِیشْوَرَسْیَ راجَتْوَمْ اَیشْوَرْیَّدَرْشَنینَ نَ بھَوِشْیَتِ۔ |
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).”
| اَتَ ایتَسْمِنْ پَشْیَ تَسْمِنْ وا پَشْیَ، اِتِ واکْیَں لوکا وَکْتُں نَ شَکْشْیَنْتِ، اِیشْوَرَسْیَ راجَتْوَں یُشْماکَمْ اَنْتَریواسْتے۔ |
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.
| تَتَح سَ شِشْیانْ جَگادَ، یَدا یُشْمابھِ رْمَنُجَسُتَسْیَ دِنَمیکَں دْرَشْٹُمْ وانْچھِشْیَتے کِنْتُ نَ دَرْشِشْیَتے، اِیدرِکّالَ آیاتِ۔ |
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].
| تَداتْرَ پَشْیَ وا تَتْرَ پَشْییتِ واکْیَں لوکا وَکْشْیَنْتِ، کِنْتُ تیشاں پَشْچاتْ ما یاتَ، مانُگَچّھَتَ چَ۔ |
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].
| یَتَسْتَڈِدْ یَتھاکاشَیکَدِشْیُدِیَ تَدَنْیامَپِ دِشَں وْیاپْیَ پْرَکاشَتے تَدْوَتْ نِجَدِنے مَنُجَسُونُح پْرَکاشِشْیَتے۔ |
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].
| کِنْتُ تَتْپُورْوَّں تینانیکانِ دُحکھانِ بھوکْتَوْیانْییتَدْوَرْتَّمانَلوکَیشْچَ سووَجْناتَوْیَح۔ |
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].
| نوہَسْیَ وِدْیَمانَکالے یَتھابھَوَتْ مَنُشْیَسُونوح کالیپِ تَتھا بھَوِشْیَتِ۔ |
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].
| یاوَتْکالَں نوہو مَہاپوتَں ناروہَدْ آپْلاوِوارْیّیتْیَ سَرْوَّں ناناشَیَچَّ تاوَتْکالَں یَتھا لوکا اَبھُنْجَتاپِوَنْ وْیَوَہَنْ وْیَواہَیَںشْچَ؛ |
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].
| اِتّھَں لوٹو وَرْتَّمانَکالیپِ یَتھا لوکا بھوجَنَپانَکْرَیَوِکْرَیَروپَنَگرِہَنِرْمّانَکَرْمَّسُ پْراوَرْتَّنْتَ، |
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].
| کِنْتُ یَدا لوٹْ سِدومو نِرْجَگامَ تَدا نَبھَسَح سَگَنْدھَکاگْنِورِشْٹِ رْبھُوتْوا سَرْوَّں وْیَناشَیَتْ |
30 Similarly, when [I], the one who came from heaven, return to earth, [people will be unprepared] (OR, [enjoying normal life]).
| تَدْوَنْ مانَوَپُتْرَپْرَکاشَدِنیپِ بھَوِشْیَتِ۔ |
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].
| تَدا یَدِ کَشْچِدْ گرِہوپَرِ تِشْٹھَتِ تَرْہِ سَ گرِہَمَدھْیاتْ کِمَپِ دْرَوْیَمانیتُمْ اَوَرُہْیَ نَیتُ؛ یَشْچَ کْشیتْرے تِشْٹھَتِ سوپِ وْیاگھُٹْیَ نایاتُ۔ |
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].
| لوٹَح پَتْنِیں سْمَرَتَ۔ |
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].
| یَح پْرانانْ رَکْشِتُں چیشْٹِشْیَتے سَ پْرانانْ ہارَیِشْیَتِ یَسْتُ پْرانانْ ہارَیِشْیَتِ سَایوَ پْرانانْ رَکْشِشْیَتِ۔ |
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]}.
| یُشْمانَہَں وَچْمِ تَسْیاں راتْرَو شَیَّیکَگَتَیو رْلوکَیوریکو دھارِشْیَتے پَرَسْتْیَکْشْیَتے۔ |
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].”
| سْتْرِیَو یُگَپَتْ پیشَنِیں وْیاوَرْتَّیِشْیَتَسْتَیوریکا دھارِشْیَتے پَراتْیَکْشْیَتے۔ |
| پُرُشَو کْشیتْرے سْتھاسْیَتَسْتَیوریکو دھارِشْیَتے پَرَسْتْیَکْشْیَتے۔ |
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].”
| تَدا تے پَپْرَچّھُح، ہے پْرَبھو کُتْریتّھَں بھَوِشْیَتِ؟ تَتَح سَ اُواچَ، یَتْرَ شَوَسْتِشْٹھَتِ تَتْرَ گرِدھْرا مِلَنْتِ۔ |
