Matthew 12
1 During that period of time, on a (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), Jesus [and we] disciples were walking through some grain fields. And because we were hungry, we began to pick some of the heads of grain and eat them. [The laws of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
तकरीबन उस्से बखत आराम कै दिन यीशु चेल्यां कै गैल खेत्तां म्ह तै होकै जाण लागरया था, अर उसके चेल्यां नै भूख लाग्गी तो वे गेहूँ की बालें तोड़-तोड़कै खाण लाग्गे।
2 Some Pharisees saw us [do what they considered to be work]. So they said to Jesus, [accusing him], “Look! Your disciples are doing [work] that is not permitted [in our] laws [PRS] [for us] to do on our day of rest!”
फरीसियाँ नै न्यू देखकै उसतै बोल्ले, “देख, तेरे चेल्लें वो काम करै सै, जो नियम-कायदा के मुताबिक आराम कै दिन करणा ठीक कोनी।”
3 [Jesus wanted to show them that the record in the Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. [So] he said to them, “[It is written] {[Someone wrote]} [in the Scriptures] [RHQ] what [our revered ancestor King] David did when he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, ([but you do not think about what it implies!/so why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
यीशु नै उनतै कह्या, “के थमनै पवित्र ग्रन्थ म्ह यो न्ही पढ़्या, के दाऊद अर उसके साथियाँ नै जिब वे भूक्खे होए तो के करया था?
4 David entered the big tent [where they worshipped] God [and asked for some food. The high priest gave him] the bread that had been {they had} presented [to God]. According to the laws [of Moses], only priests were permitted to eat that bread, but David and the men who were with him ate it. And [God did not consider that what they did was wrong]
वो किस तरियां परमेसवर कै घर म्ह गया, अर भेंट की रोट्टी खाई, जिनका खाणा ना तो उस ताहीं अर ना उसके साथियाँ ताहीं पर सिर्फ याजकां ताहीं सही था?
5 Also, think about the laws that [Moses wrote] [RHQ]. He said that [even though] the priests, [by working] in the Temple on our Jewish day of rest, are not obeying the Jewish day of rest [laws], they are not guilty. You have surely read that, [but you do not understand what it means].
यो थमनै नियम-कायदा म्ह न्ही पढ़्या के आराम कै दिन मन्दर के याजक ए आराम कै दिन की विधि ताहीं तोड़ै सै फेर भी उन ताहीं कोए कुछ न्ही कहन्दा?
6 Note this: [God allows men to work in] the Temple [on our rest day because that work must be done. But in addition, I] tell you that [I have] more [authority than the authority of] the Temple. So, it is more important for you to obey my teachings than to obey your traditions about our rest day.
पर मै थमनै कहूँ सूं के उरै वो सै जो मन्दर तै भी बड्ड़ा सै।
7 [You should think about] these words [of God in the Scriptures]: ‘I want you to [act] mercifully toward people, and not [just] offer sacrifices.’ If you understood what that means, you would not condemn [my disciples], who have done no wrong.
जै थम पवित्र ग्रन्थ म्ह जो लिख्या सै, उसका मतलब जाणदे के, ‘मै बलिदान न्ही पर दया चाहूँ सूं।’ तो थम बेकसूर ताहीं कसूरवार कोनी ठहरान्दे।
8 [And I want you to know that] I, the one who came from heaven, have [the] authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do on] the days of rest.”
मै माणस का बेट्टा तो आराम कै दिन का भी प्रभु सूं।”
9 After Jesus left there [that day], he went into a building where we Jews worship God.
ओड़ै तै चालकै वो उनके आराधनालय म्ह आया।
10 [He saw] a man with a shriveled hand there. [The Pharisees thought that Jesus would be disobeying the tradition about not working on the day of rest if he healed the man, so one of] them asked him, “Does [God] permit [us] to heal [people] on our day of rest?” [They asked that question] so that they might accuse him [if he healed someone] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day).
ओड़ै एक माणस था, जिसका हाथ सूखरया था। फरीसी लोग्गां नै यीशु पै दोष लाण खात्तर उसतै बुझ्झया, “मूसा के नियम-कायदा कै मुताबिक आराम कै दिन ठीक करणा सही सै?”
11 He replied to them, “Would anyone among you who has [only] one sheep that falls into a hole (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) [just leave it there] [RHQ]? [Certainly not]! You would take hold of it and lift it out right away, [and that would be acceptable work on our day of rest, too]
यीशु नै उनतै कह्या, “थारे म्ह तै इसा कौण सै जिसकी एक ए भेड़ हो, अर वा आराम कै दिन खडहे म्ह पड़ जावै, तो वो उस ताहीं पकड़कै न्ही काड्डै?
12 [Because] sheep are valuable, [their owners may work on our day of rest in order to rescue them. So, because] people are more valuable than sheep, it is certainly right for us to do something good [by healing another person any day, including] our day of rest!”
फेर माणस तो भेड़ तै भोत घणे खास सै! ज्यांतै आराम कै दिन भलाई करणा ठीक सै, जिसा के माणसां नै चंगा करणा।”
13 Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your [withered] hand!” The man stretched it out, and it became normal like the other hand!
फेर यीशु नै उस माणस तै कह्या, “अपणा हाथ बढ़ा।” उसनै बढ़ाया, अर वो दुसरे हाथ की तरियां ठीक होग्या।
14 Then the Pharisees left [the meeting house. They were worried that the people would reject their traditions and would accept Jesus’ teaching instead. So] they met together to plan how they could kill him.
फेर फरीसियाँ नै बाहरणै जाकै उसकै बिरोध म्ह सलाह करी के उसका नाश किस तरियां करया जावै।
15 Because Jesus knew [that the Pharisees were plotting to kill him], he [took us disciples and] went away from there. Crowds, [including many sick people], followed him, [wanting him to heal them], and he healed them all.
न्यू जाणकै यीशु ओड़ै तै चल्या गया। अर घणे माणस उसकै पाच्छै हो लिए, अर उसनै सारया ताहीं ठीक करया,
16 But he told them firmly that they should not tell [other people yet] who he was.
अर उन ताहीं चेतावनी दी, के मेरै बारै म्ह किसे तै ना कहियो के मै कौण सूं।
17 [By acting humbly like that] he fulfilled what was written by Isaiah the prophet {what Isaiah the prophet wrote} [long ago about the Messiah]. [Isaiah wrote] that God said:
ताके जो वचन यशायाह नबी कै जरिये कह्या गया था, वो पूरा हो
18 Take note of my servant whom I have chosen, the one whom I love and with whom I am pleased. I will put my Spirit in him, and he will proclaim that [God] will judge the non-Jews justly.
“देक्खो, यो मेरा सेवक सै, जिस ताहीं मन्नै चुण्या सै, मेरा प्यारा, जिसतै मेरा मन राज्जी सै, मै अपणा आत्मा उसपै तारुगाँ, अर योए दुसरी जात्तां नै न्याय की खबर देवैगा।
19 He will not quarrel [with people], neither will he shout. He will not [teach with] a loud voice in the [main] streets.
“वो ना माणसां के गैल झगड़ा करैगा, अर ना किल्की मारैगा, ना बजारां म्ह उसका कोए शब्द सुणैगा।
20 Until he has justly judged [the people who trust in him and] has declared them not guilty, he will not destroy [anyone who is weak like] a smashed stalk [MET], nor will he silence [anyone who is as helpless as] a smoldering [linen] wick [MET, DOU].
“वो कुचले होए सरकण्डे की समान कमजोर माणसां ताहीं कोनी लताड़ैगा, अर बुझते होए दीवे के समान, माणस मरता हो तो वो उसनै न्ही मारैगा, वो जिब ताहीं डटया रह्वैगा जिब ताहीं न्याय ना दुवा दे।
21 As a result, the non-Jews will confidently expect [that he will do great things for them].
“अर दुसरी जात उसकै नाम पै आस राक्खैगी।”
22 One day when Jesus was at home, [some men] brought to [Jesus] a man [who, because of being] controlled by a demon {a demon controlled him}, was blind and unable to speak. [Jesus] healed him [by expelling the demon]. As a result, the man [began to] talk and [was able to] see.
फेर माणस एक आन्धे-गूँगे नै जिसम्ह ओपरी आत्मा थी, जो उसनै देखण अर बोल्लण कोनी देवै थी, उसकै धोरै ल्याए, अर उसनै उस ताहीं ठीक करया, अर वो गूँगा बोलण अर देखण लाग्या।
23 All the crowd [who saw it] marveled. They began asking [each other], “Could this man be the [Messiah, the] descendant of [King] David, [whom we have been expecting]?”
इसपै सारे माणस अचम्भा करकै कहण लाग्गे, “यो के दाऊद की ऊलाद सै!”
24 Because the Pharisees [and the men who taught the Jewish laws] heard [that the people thought that Jesus might be the Messiah because he had expelled the demon], they said, “[It is not God, but] Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons, who enables [this man] to expel demons [from people!]”
पर फरीसियाँ नै न्यू सुणकै कह्या, “यो तो ओपरी आत्मायाँ के सरदार शैतान की मदद तै ओपरी आत्मायाँ नै लिकाड़ै सै।”
25 But Jesus knew what [the Pharisees] were thinking [and saying]. So, [in order to show them that what they said did not make sense], he said to them, “If [the people in] [MTY] one nation fight against each other, [they] will destroy their nation {their nation will be destroyed}. If [people who live in] the same city or house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one group or family].
उसनै उनकै मन की बात जाणकै उनतै कह्या, “जिस किसे राज म्ह फूट होवै सै, वो उजड़ जावै सै, अर कोए नगर या घराना जिसम्ह फूट होवै सै, बण्या कोनी रहवैगा।
26 [Similarly], if Satan were expelling his own [demons] [MTY], [it would be as though] he was fighting against himself. (His kingdom would not continue!/How could his kingdom continue?) [RHQ] His rule over them would [certainly] not last!
अर जै शैतान ए शैतान नै काड्डै, तो वो अपणा ए बिरोधी बणग्या, फेर उसका राज किस तरियां बण्या रहवैगा?
27 Furthermore, if [it is true that] Satan enables me to expel demons, is it also true that your disciples [who] expel demons [do so] by [Satan’s] power [RHQ]? [No] So they will show you that you [are not thinking logically].
भला, जै मै शैतान की मदद तै ओपरी आत्मायाँ नै काढ्ढू सूं, तो थारी पीढ़ी किसकी मदद तै काड्डै सै? इस करकै वैए थारा न्याय करैगें।
28 But because it is God’s Spirit who [enables] me to expel demons, [that proves that the power of] God to rule [people’s lives] has come to you.
पर जै मै परमेसवर के आत्मा की मदद तै ओपरी आत्मायाँ नै काढ्ढू सूं, तो परमेसवर का राज्य थारे धोरै आण पोंहच्या सै।”
29 [I will illustrate why I am able to expel demons]. (A person cannot go into the house of a strong man) [RHQ] [But if he ties up the strong man], then he will be able to steal [the things in that man’s] house.
“या किस तरियां कोए माणस किसे ठाड्डे माणस कै घर म्ह बड़कै उसका माळ लूट सकै सै जिब ताहीं के पैहल्या उस ठाड्डे ताहीं ना जुड़ ले? जिब वो उसका घर लूट लेवैगा।”
30 [No one can be neutral]. Those who do not acknowledge [that the Holy Spirit enables] me [to expel demons] are opposing me, and those who do not gather [people to become] my [disciples] are causing [those people] to [DOU] go away [from me].
“जो मेरै गेल्या न्ही वो मेरै बिरोध म्ह सै, अर जो मेरै गेल्या न्ही कठ्ठा करदा, वो खिंडावै सै।
31 You [are saying that it is not the Holy Spirit who is enabling me to expel demons]. So I will say this to you: [If] those who offend and slander other people in any way are [then sorry and ask God to forgive them, God] will forgive them. But people who discredit what the Holy Spirit does will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive [people] who discredit what the Holy Spirit does}.
ज्यांतै मै थारे तै कहूँ सूं के माणस का सारे ढाळ का पाप अर बुराई माफ करी जावैगी, पर पवित्र आत्मा की बुराई माफ कोनी करी जावैगी।
32 [God is willing to] forgive people who criticize [me], the One who came from heaven. But I [warn you that] those who say evil things about what the Holy Spirit [does] will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive people who speak evil words about what the Holy Spirit [does]}. They will not be forgiven {[He] will not forgive them} now, and they will never be forgiven {[he] will never forgive them}.” (aiōn g165)
जो कोए माणस के बेट्टे कै बिरोध म्ह कोए बात कहवैगा, उसका यो कसूर माफ करया जावैगा, पर जो कोए पवित्र आत्मा कै बिरोध म्ह कुछ कहवैगा, उसका कसूर ना तो इस लोक म्ह अर ना परलोक म्ह माफ करया जावैगा।” (aiōn g165)
33 “Think about this: You can know whether [a person is good and what that person says is good, in the same way that you] can know whether a tree [MET] and the fruit it produces [MET] are good. [You can also know whether a person and what that person says is evil in the same way that you can know] whether a tree [MET] and its fruit [MET] are blighted. You can know whether a tree is good by [seeing] its fruit, and similarly [people can know the evil character of you Pharisees by listening to your accusations against me].
“दरखत अपणे फळ तै ए पिच्छाणा जावै सै, जै दरखत नै बढ़िया कहो, तो उसकै फळ नै भी बढ़िया कहो, या दरखत नै निकम्मा कहो, तो उसकै फळ नै भी निकम्मा कहो।
34 [What] you [teach harms people spiritually like poisonous] snakes [harm them physically] [MET]! You are not able to speak good things because you are evil [RHQ]. Evil people [SYN] [like you] speak what comes from all that is in their (inner beings/hearts).
हे साँप के सप्पोलों जिसे माणसों, थम भुन्डे़ होकै किस तरियां बढ़िया बात कह सको सो? क्यूँके जो मन म्ह भरया सै, वोए मुँह पै आवै सै।
35 Good people [speak good things. That is like] taking good things out of buildings where they are stored. But evil people [speak evil things. That is like] taking evil things out of buildings where they are stored.
भला माणस अपणे मन के भले भण्डार तै भली बात लिकाड़ै सै, अर बुरा माणस अपणे मन के बुरे भण्डार तै बुराई की बात काढै सै।
36 I tell you that on the day when God judges [MTY], he will make people recall every useless word they have spoken, [and he will judge them accordingly].
अर मै थारे तै कहूँ सूं के जो-जो निकम्मी बात माणस कहवैगें, न्याय कै दिन वे हरेक उस बात का लेखा देवैगें।
37 Based on the words that you have spoken, [God] will [either] declare that you are righteous based on the words that you have spoken, or [else] he will condemn you.”
क्यूँके तू अपणी बात्तां कै कारण बेकसूर, अर अपणी बात्तां ए कै कारण कसूरवार ठहराया जावैगा।”
38 Then some of the Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws responded [to what Jesus was teaching] by saying to him, “Teacher, we want to see you [perform] a miracle [that would prove to us that God sent you].”
इसपै कुछ शास्त्रियाँ अर फरीसियाँ नै उसतै कह्या, “हे गुरु, हम तेरे तै एक चिन्ह-चमत्कार देखणा चाहवां सा।”
39 Then Jesus said to them, “[You] people [have already seen me perform miracles], but you are evil, and you do not faithfully worship God [MET]! You want [me to perform] a miracle [that would prove to you that God sent me], but [God will enable] you to see only one miracle. It will be [like] what happened to Jonah the prophet [MET].
उसनै उन ताहीं जवाब दिया, “इस युग के बुरे अर जार माणस निशान्नी टोह्वैं सै, पर योना नबी की निशान्नी नै छोड़ कोए और निशान्नी उन ताहीं कोनी दी जावैगी।
40 Jonah was in the stomach of a huge fish for three days and nights [before God caused him to live again]. Similarly, for three days and nights I, the one who came from heaven, will be in a place [where dead people are, and then God will cause me to live again].
जिस तरियां योना नबी तीन रात अर तीन दिन बड़ी मछली कै पेट म्ह रहया, उस्से तरियां ए मै माणस का बेट्टा तीन रात अर तीन दिन धरती कै भीत्त्तर रहूँगा।
41 When [God] judges [all people], the people who lived in Nineveh will stand [in front of him] with [you] people who [have seen me perform miracles]. The [people of Nineveh turned from their sinful ways as a result of hearing what] Jonah preached. [Jonah was important, but I], who am more important than Jonah, [have come and preached to you, but you have not turned from your sinful ways. So] when [God] judges [all people, he] will condemn you.
निनवे नगर के माणस न्याय कै दिन इस युग के माणसां कै गेल्या उठकै उन ताहीं कसूरवार ठहरावैगें, क्यूँके उननै योना नबी का प्रचार सुणकै अपणे पापां ताहीं स्वीकार किया, अर देक्खो, उरै वो सै जो योना नबी तै भी बड्ड़ा सै।
42 The queen from [Sheba, South of Israel, who lived long ago, came from a distant region in order to listen to King Solomon teach] many wise things. But now [I], [a man] who [is much] greater [and wiser] than Solomon, am here, [but you have not listened to what I have told you]. So at the time when [God] judges [all people], the queen from [Sheba will stand in front of him, along] with you people, and will condemn you.”
दक्षिण देश की राणी न्याय कै दिन इस युग के माणसां कै गेल्या उठकै उन ताहीं कसूरवार ठहरावैगी, क्यूँके वा राजा सुलैमान का ज्ञान सुणण कै खात्तर धरती कै दुसरे सिरे तै आई, अर देक्खो, उरै वो सै जो सुलैमान तै भी बड्ड़ा सै।”
43 “[Sometimes] when an evil spirit leaves a person, it wanders around in desolate areas, seeking [someone in whom it can] rest. If it does not find anyone,
“जिब ओपरी आत्मा माणस म्ह तै लिकड़कै जावै सै, तो सूक्खी जगहां म्ह आराम टोह्न्दी फिरै सै, अर पांदी कोनी।
44 it says [to itself], ‘I will return to the person [MET] in whom I used to live.’ So it goes back [and finds that the Spirit of God is not in control of that] person’s [life. The person’s life is like] a house that has been swept clean and everything put in order [MET], [but it is] empty.
फेर कहवै सै, ‘मै उस्से माणस म्ह जड़ै तै लिकड़ी थी बोहड़ जाऊँगी।’ अर आकै उस माणस नै घर जिसा झाड़ा-बुहारा अर सजा-धज्या पावै सै।
45 Then [this evil spirit] goes and gets seven other spirits that are [even] more evil, and they [all] enter [that person] and [begin] living there. [So, although] that person’s condition [was bad] before, it becomes much worse. That is what [you] wicked people who [have heard me teach] will experience.”
फेर वा ओपरी आत्मा जाकै अपणे तै और भुंडी सात आत्मायाँ नै अपणे गेल्या ले आवै सै, अर वे उस माणस म्ह बड़कै ओड़ै वास करै सै, अर उस माणस की पाच्छली हालत पैहल्या तै भी भुंडी हो जावै सै। इस युग के बुरे माणसां की हालत भी इसीए होवैगी।”
46 While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his [younger] brothers [arrived]. They stood outside [the house], wanting to speak with him.
जिब वो भीड़ तै बात करण ए लागरया था, तब उसकी माँ अर उसके भाई बाहरणै खड़े थे अर उसतै बात करणा चाहवै थे।
47 Someone said to him, “Your mother and your [younger] brothers are standing outside [the house], wanting to talk to you.”
किसे नै उसतै कह्या, “देख, तेरी माँ अर तेरे भाई बाहरणै खड़े सै, अर तेरे तै बात करणा चाहवै सै।”
48 Then Jesus said to the person who told him [that], “([I will tell you something about] my mother and brothers [MET].[/Do you know] who I [consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [MET, RHQ]
या सुणकै यीशु नै कहण आळे ताहीं जवाब दिया, “कौण सै मेरी माँ? अर कौण सै मेरे भाई?”
49 He then pointed toward [us] disciples and said, “These are ones [whom I love as much as I love] my mother and my brothers [MET].
अर अपणे चेल्यां कान्ही अपणा हाथ बढ़ाकै कह्या, “देक्खो, मेरी माँ अर मेरे भाई ये सै।
50 Those who do what [God] my Father [who is] in heaven wants, are [as dear to me] [MET] [as] my brother, my sister, or my mother.”
क्यूँके जो कोए मेरे सुर्गीय पिता की इच्छा पै चाल्लै वोए मेरा भाई, मेरी बेब्बे अर मेरी माँ सै।”
