< Matthew 23 >

1 Then Jesus said to the crowd and to us his disciples,
तवय येशु, लोकसनी गर्दीले अनी त्याना शिष्यसले बोलना,
2 “Moses was the [renowned] teacher who taught [the people the laws that God gave him] [MTY]. Now, the Pharisees and the men who teach our [Jewish] laws have made themselves the ones who interpret those laws [IDM].
शास्त्री अनं परूशी या मोशेना आसनवर बठेल शेतस.
3 Consequently, you should do whatever they tell you that you must do. But do not do what they do, because they themselves do not do what they tell [you that you must do].
यामुये त्या जे काही तुमले सांगतीन ते पाळा अनं तस वागा, पण त्या जश करतस तस करू नका; कारण त्या जे सांगतस ते करतस नही,
4 They [require you to obey many rules that are difficult to obey]. But they themselves [do not help anyone obey those rules. It is] as if they are tying up loads that are hard to carry and putting them on your shoulders [MET] [for you to carry. But they] themselves [do not desire to help anyone obey those laws. They are like] people who do not want to lift [even the slightest load] that they [could lift] [MET]
त्या जड ओझं बांधीन लोकसना खांदावर टाकतस, पण त्या स्वतः त्याले बोट बी लावतस नही;
5 [with] one finger. Whatever they do, they do it to be seen by other people {so that other people will see them doing that}. [For example], they make extra wide the tiny boxes containing portions of Scripture that they wear on their arms. They enlarge the tassels on their robes, [to make others think that they are pious].
अनी त्या आपला सर्वा कामे लोकसले दखाडाकरता करतस, त्या आपला ताईत मोठा बनाडतस अनं आपला कपडासना किनारले गोंडा लाईन आम्हीन भलता पवित्र शेतस असा दखाडतस.
6 [They want people to honor them. For example], at dinner parties they sit in the seats where the most important people sit. In the places of worship [they want to sit] in the seats where the most honored people sit.
पंगतमा मुख्य स्थान अनं सभास्थानमा मुख्य आसन,
7 Also, [they want people to] greet them [respectfully] in the marketplaces and to honor them by calling them ‘Teacher’.
बजारमा लोकसकडतीन आदर करी लेवाणं अनं स्वतःले गुरजी, अस म्हणी लेवाणं हाई त्यासले आवडस
8 But you [who are my disciples] should not allow people to address you [honorably] as ‘Rabbi’, [which means ‘teacher]’. I [am the] only one who is [really] your teacher, which means that you are all [equal, like] brothers and sisters, [and none of you should act superior to another, as the Pharisees do].
तुम्हीन स्वतःले लोकसकडतीन गुरजी म्हणी लेवु नका; कारण तुमना गुरू एक शे अनं तुम्हीन सर्व भाऊ-भाऊ शेतस.
9 Do not [honor anyone] on earth [by] addressing him as ‘Father’, because God, your Father in heaven, is the only [spiritual] father of all of you.
जगमा कोनले बी पिता म्हनान नही, कारण तुमना पिता एकच शे अनं तो स्वर्गामा शे.
10 Do not [allow people to] call you ‘Instructors’, because I, the Messiah, am the one instructor who [teaches all of] you.
तसच तुम्हीन स्वतःले स्वामी म्हणी लेवु नका कारण तुमना एकच स्वामी शे, तो म्हणजे ख्रिस्त शे.
11 In contrast, everyone among you who wants [God to consider them] to be important must serve others as servants do.
तुमनामा जो मोठा शे त्यानी तुमना सेवक व्हवाले पाहिजे.
12 [God] will humble those who exalt themselves. And [he] will exalt those who humble themselves.”
जो कोणी स्वतःले मोठा माणुस समजी, त्याले सर्वात खालना माणुस म्हणतीन, अनी जो कोणी स्वतःले लिन नम्र बनाडी त्या माणुसले मोठा म्हणतीन.
13 [Then Jesus said to the religious leaders], “You men who teach the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees are hypocrites! There will be terrible punishment for [you, because by teaching what is false], you [prevent people] [MTY/HYP] [who are thinking about letting] God rule their lives [from doing that] [MET]. [What you are doing is like] closing a gate [MET] [so that people who] are wanting to enter [a city cannot go in]. As for you, [you do not let] God [rule your lives. Neither do you allow] other people [to let God rule their lives. What you do is like] not going into a [house] yourselves, and not allowing others to enter it [either] [MET].”
अरे शास्त्री अनं परूशीसवन, अरे ढोंगीसवन, तुमना धिक्कार असो! कारण लोकसनी मझार जावाले नको म्हणीन तुम्हीन स्वर्गना राज्यनं दार बंद करतस; तुम्हीन स्वतःबी मझार जातस नही अनी मझार जाणारासले बी जाऊ देतस नही.
अरे शास्त्री अनी परूशीसवन, अरे ढोंगीसवन, तुमना धिक्कार असो! कारण तुम्हीन विधवासना घरसना नुकसान करी टाकतस अनं दिखावाकरता मोठी प्रार्थना करतस, यामुये तुमले सर्वात जास्त भोग भोगना पडी.
15 “You are hypocrites, you men who teach the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees! Your punishment will be terrible, because you exert yourselves very much to get [even] one person to believe what you teach. For instance, you travel across seas and lands [to distant places] in order to do that. And [as a result], when one person [believes what you teach], you make that person much more deserving to go to hell than you yourselves [deserve to].” (Geenna g1067)
अरे शास्त्रीसवन अनं परूशीसवन, अरे ढोंगीसवन, तुमना धिक्कार असो! कारण तुम्हीन एक शिष्य बनाडाकरता जमीन अनं समुद्र पालथा घालतस अनी तो भेटना तर तुम्हीन त्याले स्वतःपेक्षा दुप्पट नरकना भागीदार बनाडतस. (Geenna g1067)
16 “You [Jewish leaders], your punishment will be terrible! You are [like people who are] blind [MET] who are trying to lead others. You say, ‘[In the case of] those who promise to [do] something and then ask the Temple [to affirm what they have promised], it means nothing [if they do not do what] they have promised. But if they ask the gold that is in the Temple [to affirm what they have promised], they must do what they promised.’
अरे वाट दखाडणारा आंधयासवन, तुमना धिक्कार असो! कारण तुम्हीन म्हणतस, कोणी मंदिरनी शप्पथ लिधी तरी काही हरकत नही पण मंदिरमा जे सोनं शे, त्यानी शप्पथ लिधी तर ती मोडता येवाव नही.
17 You are fools, and you are [like people who are] blind [MET]! The gold [that is in the Temple] is important, but [the Temple] is even more important [RHQ], because it is the Temple that the gold is in that sets the gold apart for a special use for God.
अरे मुर्ख अनं आंधया लोकसवन, मोठं काय शे, ते सोनं की ज्यामुये ते सोनं पवित्र व्हयेल शे ते मंदिर?
18 Also [you say], ‘In the case of those who promise to [do] something and then ask [the altar to affirm what they have promised], it means nothing [if they do not do what they have promised]. But if they ask the gift [that] they have put on the altar [to support what they have promised], they must do [what they promised].’
तुम्हीन म्हणतस कोणी वेदीनी शप्पथ लिधी तर काहीच हरकत नही, पण जर कोणी तिनावर अर्पण करतस त्या अर्पणनी शप्पथ लिधी तर ती मोडता येवाव नही.
19 [You are like people who are] blind [MET]. The gift [that is offered] on the altar is important, but the altar is even more important [RHQ] because it is the altar on which the offering is offered that sets it apart for a special use for God.
अरे आंधयासवन, मोठं काय शे; अर्पण की, अर्पणले पवित्र करस ती वेदी?
20 So, those who promise to do something, and then ask the altar [to affirm what they have promised] are asking everything on the altar [to support what they promised].
पण जो कोणी वेदीनी शप्पथ लेस तो तिनी अनी तिनावर जे काही ठेयल शे त्यानी शप्पथ लेस;
21 Those who promise to do something, and then ask the Temple [to affirm what they promised], are asking that [God], to whom the Temple belongs, [will affirm what they have promised].
अनी जो कोणी मंदिरनी अनं त्यामा राहणारा देवनी शप्पथ लेस;
22 Those who promise to do something and then ask heaven [to affirm what they promised] are asking the throne of God and [God], who sits on that throne, [to affirm what they promised].”
अनी जो स्वर्गनी शप्पथ लेस तो देवना सिंहासन नी अनी त्यावर जो बठस त्यानी बी शप्पथ लेस.
23 “You men who teach the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees, your punishment will be terrible! You are hypocrites because, [even though] you give [to God] a tenth of [the herbs you produce, such as] mint, dill, and cummin, you do not [obey God’s] laws that are more important. [For example, you do not act] justly toward others, you do not act mercifully toward people, and you are not trustworthy. It is good to [give a tenth of your herbs] to God, but you should also [obey] these other [more important laws].
अरे शास्त्री अनं परूशीसवन, अरे ढोंगीसवन, तुमना धिक्कार असो! कारण पुदिना, सौफ अनी जिरा याना दशांश तुम्हीन देतस अनी नियमशास्त्रमाधल्या मुख्य गोष्टी म्हणजे न्याय, दया अनं ईश्वास यासले तुम्हीन धाकल्या गोष्टी समजीन सोडी दिध्यात; ह्या गोष्टी कराले पाहिजे व्हत्यात, तसच आखो महत्वन्या गोष्टी शेतस त्यासले पण तुम्हीन सोडी देऊ नका.
24 You [leaders are like] blind people [who are trying to lead others. According to your laws you say that touching gnats and camels makes you unacceptable to God. What you are doing is like] straining a gnat [out of a jar of water so that you do not swallow it and thereby become unacceptable to God], and [at the same time] swallowing a camel [with the water] [MET]!”
अरे आंधळी वाट दखाडनारासवन, तुम्हीन मच्छरले निवडीन काढतस अनं उंटले गिळी टाकतस.
25 “You men who teach people the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees, your punishment will be terrible! You are hypocrites! You are greedy and selfish, but you [make yourselves appear holy. You are like] cups and plates that have been cleaned on the outside, but on the inside [they are very filthy].
अरे शास्त्री अनं परूशीसवन, अरे ढोंगीसवन तुमना धिक्कार असो! तुम्हीन बी आपली ताटवाटी बाहेरतीन घाशीन पुशीन स्वच्छ करतस पण मझारमा हावरटपणा अनं जुलूम यासनी घाण भरी ठेयल शे.
26 You blind Pharisees! First you must [stop being greedy and selfish]. [Then you will be able to do what] is [righteous. That will be like] cleaning the inside of a cup first. Then when you clean [MET] the outside [of the cup], [the cup will truly be clean].”
अरे आंधळ्या परूशी, पहिले वाटी मझारतीन साफ करा, म्हणजे ती बाहेरतीन साफ व्हई.
27 “You men who teach the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees, your punishment will be terrible! You are hypocrites! You are like tombs [SIM] that are painted white [so that people can see them and avoid touching them]. The outside surfaces are beautiful, but inside they are full of dead people’s bones and filth.
अरे शास्त्रीसवन अनं परूशीसवन, अरे ढोंगीसवन, तुमना धिक्कार असो! कारण तुम्हीन चुना लायेल कबरसनामायक शेतस, त्या बाहेरतीन सुंदर दखातस, पण मझारतीन मरेलसना हाडसनी अनं सर्व प्रकारना घाणनी भरेल शेतस;
28 You are [like those tombs]. When people look at you, they think that you are righteous, but in your (inner beings/hearts) you are hypocrites and you disobey [God’s] commands.”
तस तुम्हीन बाहेरतीन लोकसले न्यायी दिसतस, पण मझारतीन ढोंग अनं अधर्मनी भरेल शेतस.
29 “You men who teach the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees are hypocrites! Your punishment will be terrible! You rebuild the tombs of the [prophets whom others killed long ago]. You decorate the monuments [that honor] righteous [people].
अरे शास्त्री अनं परूशीसवन, अरे ढोंगीसवन, तुमना धिक्कार असो! कारण तुम्हीन संदेष्टासना कबरी बांधतस अनं साधु संतना कबरसले तुम्हीन सजाडतस.
30 You say, ‘If we had [lived] when our ancestors [MET] [lived], we would not have helped [MET] those who killed [MTY] the prophets.’
अनी म्हणतस आम्हीन आमना वाडवडीलसना काळमा त्यासनासंगे राहतुत तर संदेष्टासनी हत्या करामा आम्हीन त्यासले साथ नही देतुत.
31 Thus [you recognize that you should honor the prophets, but you disregard the word of God that other men whom God has sent teach you. In that way] you testify against yourselves that you are descendants and disciples [MET] of those who killed the prophets.
यावरतीन तुम्हीन स्वतःच सांगतस की, तुम्हीन संदेष्टासनी हत्या करनारासना पोऱ्या शेतस;
32 You are as ready to murder people as [MET] your ancestors were!
तुम्हीन, तुमना पुर्वजसनी जी वाईट करणी करीसन आर्ध माप भरेल शे, ते तुम्हीन दुष्टाई करीसन पुरं भरी टाका.
33 [You people are so wicked] You are [as dangerous as poisonous] snakes [DOU, MET]! (You [foolishly] think that you will escape being punished in hell!/Do you [foolishly] think that you will escape when [God] punishes [wicked people] in hell?) [RHQ] (Geenna g1067)
अरे सापसवन, सापसना पिल्लसवन नरकमा जावानी शिक्षा तुम्हीन कशी चुकाडशात? (Geenna g1067)
34 Take note that this is why I will send prophets, wise men, and other men who will teach you [my message]. You will kill some of them by nailing them to crosses, and you will kill some in other ways. You will whip some of them in the places where you worship, and [you will] chase them from city to city.
म्हणीन दखा, मी तुमनाकडे संदेष्टासले, ज्ञानी लोकसले अनं शास्त्री यासले धाडसु; तुम्हीन त्यामाधला कित्येक जणसले मारी टाकशात अनं काहीसले क्रुसखांबवर खियासघाई ठोकीन मारशात अनी बाकीनासले तुमना सभास्थानमा फटका मारशात अनं प्रत्येक शहरमा त्यासले त्रास देत फिरशात.
35 As a result, God will consider that you are guilty for killing [SYN] all the righteous [people], including killing [MTY] [Adam’s son] Abel, who was a righteous man [SYN], and Zechariah, the son of Barachiah, whom you [are guilty of] killing [in the holy place] between the Temple and the altar, and for killing [all the prophets] who lived between [the times that those two men lived].
अनी जितला न्यायी लोकसनं रंगत पृथ्वीवर व्हावाडेल शे ते तुमना माथे पडी, याना अर्थ न्यायी हाबेल पाईन तर बरख्याना पोऱ्या जखऱ्या पावत, ज्यासले तुम्हीन मंदिर अनी वेदीना मझार मारी टाकेल शे.
36 Think about this: You people who have observed my ministry, it is you whom [God] will punish [for killing all] those [prophets]!”
मी तुमले सत्य सांगस, की ह्या सर्वा गोष्टी हाई पिढीना माथे पडीतीन.
37 “O [people of] Jerusalem [MTY, APO], you killed the prophets [who lived long ago], and you killed others whom [God] sent to you. You killed them by throwing stones at them [DOU]! Many times I wanted to gather you together [to protect you], like a hen gathers her young chicks under her wings [MET]. But you did not want [me to do that].
“यरूशलेमा, यरूशलेमा, तु संदेष्टासले मारी टाकस अनी ज्यासले तुनाकडे धाडतस त्यासले तु दगडमार करस, मनी कितलींदाव ईच्छा व्हती की, जशी कोंबडी तिना पिल्लासले आपला पंखखाल गोळा करस तसच मी बी तुना पोऱ्यासले गोळा करसु,” पण तुनी ईच्छा नव्हती!
38 So listen to this: Your city [SYN] will [soon] become an uninhabited place.
म्हणीन आते तुमनं घर ओसाड अवस्थामा तुमलेच सोपी देयल शे.
39 Keep this in mind: You will see me again only when I [return], and you say [about me], ‘[God] is truly pleased with this man who comes with God’s authority [MTY].’”
मी तुमले सांगस की, आत्तेपाईन “प्रभुना नावतीन येणारा तो आशिर्वादित शे, अस म्हणशात तोपावत मी तुमना नजरमा पडावु नही.”
