Matthew 17
1 A week after Jesus [said that], he took Peter, James, and John, the [younger] brother of James, and led them up a high mountain where they were away from other people.
| اَنَنْتَرَں شَڈْدِنیبھْیَح پَرَں یِیشُح پِتَرَں یاکُوبَں تَتْسَہَجَں یوہَنَنْچَ گرِہْلَنْ اُچّادْرے رْوِوِکْتَسْتھانَمْ آگَتْیَ تیشاں سَمَکْشَں رُوپَمَنْیَتْ دَدھارَ۔ |
2 [While they were there, the three disciples] saw that Jesus’ appearance was changed. His face shone like the sun, and his clothing [shone and] became as brilliant as light.
| تینَ تَداسْیَں تیجَسْوِ، تَدابھَرَنَمْ آلوکَوَتْ پانْڈَرَمَبھَوَتْ۔ |
3 Suddenly Moses and Elijah, [who were important prophets many years ago], appeared and started talking with him.
| اَنْیَچَّ تینَ ساکَں سَںلَپَنْتَو مُوسا ایلِیَشْچَ تیبھْیو دَرْشَنَں دَدَتُح۔ |
4 Peter [saw them and] said to Jesus, “Lord, it is wonderful for us to be here! If you want [me to], I will make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
| تَدانِیں پِتَرو یِیشُں جَگادَ، ہے پْرَبھو سْتھِتِرَتْراسْماکَں شُبھا، یَدِ بھَوَتانُمَنْیَتے، تَرْہِ بھَوَدَرْتھَمیکَں مُوسارْتھَمیکَمْ ایلِیارْتھَنْچَیکَمْ اِتِ تْرِینِ دُوشْیانِ نِرْمَّمَ۔ |
5 While Peter was speaking, a bright cloud [appeared and] covered them. [They heard God] speaking [about Jesus from] inside the cloud. He said [to them], “This is my Son. I love him. He pleases me very much. [So] you must listen to him!”
| ایتَتْکَتھَنَکالَ ایکَ اُجَّوَلَح پَیودَسْتیشامُپَرِ چھایاں کرِتَوانْ، وارِدادْ ایشا نَبھَسِییا واگْ بَبھُووَ، مَمایَں پْرِیَح پُتْرَح، اَسْمِنْ مَمَ مَہاسَنْتوشَ ایتَسْیَ واکْیَں یُویَں نِشامَیَتَ۔ |
6 When the three disciples heard [God speaking], they were terrified. [As a result], they fell prostrate on the ground.
| کِنْتُ واچَمیتاں شرِنْوَنْتَایوَ شِشْیا مرِشَں شَنْکَمانا نْیُبْجا نْیَپَتَنْ۔ |
7 But Jesus went to them and touched them [and] said [to them], “Stand up! Do not be afraid any more!”
| تَدا یِیشُراگَتْیَ تیشاں گاتْرانِ سْپرِشَنْ اُواچَ، اُتِّشْٹھَتَ، ما بھَیشْٹَ۔ |
8 And when they looked up [MTY], they saw that Jesus was the only one [who was still there].
| تَدانِیں نیتْرانْیُنْمِیلْیَ یِیشُں وِنا کَمَپِ نَ دَدرِشُح۔ |
9 When they were walking down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Do not tell anyone what you saw [on the mountain top] until [God has caused me], the one who has come from heaven, to become alive again after I die.”
| تَتَح پَرَمْ اَدْریرَوَروہَنَکالے یِیشُسْتانْ اِتْیادِدیشَ، مَنُجَسُتَسْیَ مرِتاناں مَدھْیادُتّھانَں یاوَنَّ جایَتے، تاوَتْ یُشْمابھِریتَدَّرْشَنَں کَسْمَیچِدَپِ نَ کَتھَیِتَوْیَں۔ |
10 [Those three disciples had just seen Elijah and he did not do anything to prepare people for the coming of the Messiah], so they asked Jesus, “If [what you say is true], why do the men who teach the [Jewish] laws say that it is necessary for Elijah to come [back to earth] before [the Messiah comes]?”
| تَدا شِشْیاسْتَں پَپْرَچّھُح، پْرَتھَمَمْ ایلِیَ آیاسْیَتِیتِ کُتَ اُپادھْیایَیرُچْیَتے؟ |
11 Jesus answered [them], “It is true that [God promised that] Elijah would come to prepare many [HYP] [people for the Messiah’s coming].
| تَتو یِیشُح پْرَتْیَوادِیتْ، ایلِیَح پْراگیتْیَ سَرْوّانِ سادھَیِشْیَتِیتِ سَتْیَں، |
12 But note this: Elijah’s [representative] has already come, [and our leaders have seen him], but they did not recognize him [as the one who would come before the Messiah]. Instead, they treated him [badly], just like they desired. And those same rulers will soon treat [me], the one who came from heaven, in the same manner.”
| کِنْتْوَہَں یُشْمانْ وَچْمِ، ایلِیَ ایتْیَ گَتَح، تے تَمَپَرِچِتْیَ تَسْمِنْ یَتھیچّھَں وْیَوَجَہُح؛ مَنُجَسُتیناپِ تیشامَنْتِکے تادرِگْ دُحکھَں بھوکْتَوْیَں۔ |
13 Then the three disciples understood that [when he was talking about Elijah], he was referring to John the Baptizer.
| تَدانِیں سَ مَجَّیِتارَں یوہَنَمَدھِ کَتھامیتاں وْیاہرِتَوانْ، اِتّھَں تَچّھِشْیا بُبُدھِرے۔ |
14 When [Jesus and the three disciples] returned to the [rest of us disciples] and to the crowd [that had gathered], a man approached Jesus and knelt before him.
| پَشْچاتْ تیشُ جَنَنِوَہَسْیانْتِکَماگَتیشُ کَشْچِتْ مَنُجَسْتَدَنْتِکَمیتْیَ جانُونِی پاتَیِتْوا کَتھِتَوانْ، |
15 He said [to him], “Sir/Lord, have mercy on my son and [heal him]! He has epilepsy and suffers very much. [Because of this illness], he has fallen in the fire and in the water many times.
| ہے پْرَبھو، مَتْپُتْرَں پْرَتِ کرِپاں وِدَدھاتُ، سوپَسْمارامَیینَ بھرِشَں وْیَتھِتَح سَنْ پُنَح پُنَ رْوَہْنَو مُہُ رْجَلَمَدھْیے پَتَتِ۔ |
16 I brought him to your disciples [in order that they might heal him], but they were not able to heal him.”
| تَسْمادْ بھَوَتَح شِشْیاناں سَمِیپے تَمانَیَں کِنْتُ تے تَں سْواسْتھَں کَرْتُّں نَ شَکْتاح۔ |
17 Jesus responded [by saying to everyone who had gathered there], “[You who have seen how I help people] do not believe [that you can do anything! Your minds] are distorted! How long do I have to be with you [before you] are [able to do what I do] [RHQ]? How long [do] I have to endure your [not believing] [RHQ]? Bring the boy here to me!”
| تَدا یِیشُح کَتھِتَوانْ رے اَوِشْواسِنَح، رے وِپَتھَگامِنَح، پُنَح کَتِکالانْ اَہَں یُشْماکَں سَنِّدھَو سْتھاسْیامِ؟ کَتِکالانْ وا یُشْمانْ سَہِشْیے؟ تَمَتْرَ مَمانْتِکَمانَیَتَ۔ |
18 When [they brought the boy to Jesus], Jesus rebuked the demon [that was causing the epilepsy]. [As a result], the demon came out of the boy, and right then the boy was healed.
| پَشْچادْ یِیشُنا تَرْجَتَایوَ سَ بھُوتَسْتَں وِہایَ گَتَوانْ، تَدَّنْڈَایوَ سَ بالَکو نِرامَیوبھُوتْ۔ |
19 [Later, some of us] disciples approached Jesus. We asked him privately, “Why were we [(exc)] not able to expel the demon?”
| تَتَح شِشْیا گُپْتَں یِیشُمُپاگَتْیَ بَبھاشِرے، کُتو وَیَں تَں بھُوتَں تْیاجَیِتُں نَ شَکْتاح؟ |
20 He answered us, “It is because you did not believe very much [in God’s power]. Think about this: 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 [LIT]! You [could even] say to this hill, ‘Move from here to there!’ and it would go [where you told it to go].”
| یِیشُنا تے پْروکْتاح، یُشْماکَمَپْرَتْیَیاتْ؛ |
| یُشْمانَہَں تَتھْیَں وَچْمِ یَدِ یُشْماکَں سَرْشَپَیکَماتْروپِ وِشْواسو جایَتے، تَرْہِ یُشْمابھِرَسْمِنْ شَیلے تْوَمِتَح سْتھاناتْ تَتْ سْتھانَں یاہِیتِ بْرُوتے سَ تَدَیوَ چَلِشْیَتِ، یُشْماکَں کِمَپْیَسادھْیَنْچَ کَرْمَّ نَ سْتھاسْیاتِ۔ کِنْتُ پْرارْتھَنوپَواسَو وِنَیتادرِشو بھُوتو نَ تْیاجْییتَ۔ |
22 When [we disciples] had gathered together in Galilee [district], Jesus said to us, “[I], the one who came from heaven, will soon be handed over {[Someone] will soon hand me, the one who came from heaven, over} to the authorities [SYN].
| اَپَرَں تیشاں گالِیلْپْرَدیشے بھْرَمَنَکالے یِیشُنا تے گَدِتاح، مَنُجَسُتو جَناناں کَریشُ سَمَرْپَیِشْیَتے تَے رْہَنِشْیَتے چَ، |
23 They will kill me. But [God] will cause me to become alive again on the third day [after I am killed].” [When we heard that], we became very sad.
| کِنْتُ ترِتِییےہِنَ مَ اُتّھاپِشْیَتے، تینَ تے بھرِشَں دُحکھِتا بَبھُووَح۔ |
24 When we came to Capernaum [city], the men who collect taxes [for the Temple approached Peter and said to him], “Your teacher pays the [Temple tax], does he not?”
| تَدَنَنْتَرَں تیشُ کَپھَرْناہُومْنَگَرَماگَتیشُ کَرَسَںگْراہِنَح پِتَرانْتِکَماگَتْیَ پَپْرَچّھُح، یُشْماکَں گُرُح کِں مَنْدِرارْتھَں کَرَں نَ دَداتِ؟ تَتَح پِتَرَح کَتھِتَوانْ دَداتِ۔ |
25 He answered [them], “Yes, [he does pay it].” When we came into the house [where Jesus was saying], [before Peter began to talk about paying taxes], Jesus said [to him], “Simon, from whom do you think rulers collect revenue or taxes? [Do they collect taxes] from the citizens of their own [country], or from citizens of countries [they have conquered]?”
| تَتَسْتَسْمِنْ گرِہَمَدھْیَماگَتے تَسْیَ کَتھاکَتھَناتْ پُورْوَّمیوَ یِیشُرُواچَ، ہے شِمونْ، میدِنْیا راجانَح سْوَسْواپَتْییبھْیَح کِں وِدیشِبھْیَح کیبھْیَح کَرَں گرِہْلَنْتِ؟ اَتْرَ تْوَں کِں بُدھْیَسے؟ تَتَح پِتَرَ اُکْتَوانْ، وِدیشِبھْیَح۔ |
26 Peter answered [him], “From [citizens of] other [countries].” Then Jesus said to him, “So citizens of their own [country] do not need to [pay taxes].
| تَدا یِیشُرُکْتَوانْ، تَرْہِ سَنْتانا مُکْتاح سَنْتِ۔ |
27 But [even though the Temple is mine, pay the tax for us so that the Temple tax collectors will not become angry with us. In order to get the money to pay it], go to the lake. Cast your [fish line and] hook, and take the first fish that you catch. When you open its mouth, you will find a silver coin [that is worth enough to pay the tax] for you and me. Take that coin and give [it] to the Temple tax collectors.”
| تَتھاپِ یَتھاسْمابھِسْتیشامَنْتَرایو نَ جَنْیَتے، تَتْکرِتے جَلَدھیسْتِیرَں گَتْوا وَڈِشَں کْشِپَ، تینادَو یو مِینَ اُتّھاسْیَتِ، تَں گھرِتْوا تَنْمُکھے موچِتے تولَکَیکَں رُوپْیَں پْراپْسْیَسِ، تَدْ گرِہِیتْوا تَوَ مَمَ چَ کرِتے تیبھْیو دیہِ۔ |
