< Matthew 26 >

1 When Jesus had finished [saying] all those things, he said to [us] disciples,
येशूले यी सबै वचन भनिसक्‍नुभएपछि उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो,
2 “You know that two days from now [we will celebrate] the Passover [festival]. [At that time] I, the one who came from heaven, will be handed over to {they will put me, the one who came from heaven, into the hands of} those who will nail me to a cross.”
“तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छ, कि दुई दिनपछि निस्तार-चाड आउँदै छ, र मानिसका पुत्र क्रुसमा टाँगिनको निम्ति सुम्पिनेछ ।”
3 At the same time the chief priests and the Jewish elders gathered in the home of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas.
त्यसपछि कैयाफा नाउँ गरेका प्रधान पुजारीको दरबारमा मुख्य पुजारीहरू तथा मानिसहरूका एल्डरहरू एकसाथ भेला भए ।
4 [There] they plotted how they could seize Jesus in some deceitful way so that they could have him executed.
तिनीहरू मिलेर येशूलाई छलसित पक्रने र उहाँलाई मार्ने षड्यन्‍त्र गरे ।
5 But they said, “[We must] not [do it] during the [Passover] festival, because [if we do it then], the people might riot.”
किनकि तिनीहरूले यसरी भनिरहेका थिए, “चाडको बेलामा भने होइन, ताकि मानिसहरूका माझ खैलाबैला नमच्‍चियोस् ।”
6 While Jesus [and we] were in Bethany [village] in the home of Simon, whom [Jesus had healed of] leprosy,
अनि जब येशू बेथानियामा सिमोन भन्‍ने एक जना कुष्‍ठरोगीको घरमा हुनुहुन्थ्यो,
7 a woman came to him. She [was carrying] a stone jar [containing] very expensive perfume. [To show how much she appreciated] Jesus, she poured the perfume on his head as he was eating.
उहाँ एउटा टेबुलमा अडेस लगाएर बसिरहनुहुँदा अति बहुमूल्य अत्तरको सिङ्गमरमरको एउटा शीशी बोकेकी एउटी स्‍त्री उहाँकहाँ आई, र उसले त्यसलाई उहाँको शिरमा खन्याइदिई ।
8 When [we] disciples saw that, [some of us] were angry. [One of us] said, “(It is terrible that this perfume was wasted!/Why was this perfume wasted?) [RHQ]
तर जब उहाँका चेलाहरूले यो देखे, तिनीहरू रिसाएर भने, “यसरी नोक्सानी गर्नुको कारण के हो?
9 [We] could have sold it and gotten a lot of money for it! Then the money could have been given {[we] could have given the money} to poor people.”
यसलाई ठुलो रकममा बेच्न सकिन्थ्यो, र गरिबलाई दिन सकिन्थ्यो ।”
10 Jesus knew [what we were saying. So he] said to us, “(You should not be bothering this woman!/Why are you bothering this woman?) [RHQ] She has done a beautiful thing to me.
तर येशूले यो जानेर तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तिमीहरूले यी स्‍त्रीलाई किन दुःख दिइरहेका छौ? किनकि यिनले मेरो निम्ति अति नै राम्रो काम गरेकी छन् ।
11 [Keep in mind that] you will always have poor people among you, [so you can help them whenever you want to]. But I will not always be with you, [so it is good for her to show now that she appreciates me!]
गरिबहरू त तिमीहरूसँग सधैँ हुनेछन्, तर म तिमीहरूसँग सधैँ रहनेछैन ।
12 When she poured this perfume on my body, [it was as if she knew that I am going to die soon. And it is as if she] has anointed my body for being buried.
किनकि जब यी स्‍त्रीले यो अत्तर मेरो शरीरमाथि खन्याइन्, यिनले मेरो दफनको निम्ति यो गरिन् ।
13 I will tell you this: Wherever this good message [about me] is preached {people preach this good message about me} throughout the world, those who preach it will tell what this woman has done, [and as a result] people will [always] remember her.”
साँच्‍चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, यो सुसमाचार संसारको जुनसकै ठाउँमा प्रचार गरिँदा, यी स्‍त्रीले जे गरेकी छन्, तिनको सम्झनामा यो चर्चा गरिनेछ ।”
14 Then Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), [even though he was] one of [us] twelve [disciples], went to the chief priests.
त्यसपछि बाह्र जनामध्येको एक जसको नाउँ यहूदा इस्करियोत थियो, ऊ मुख्य पुजारीहरूकहाँ गयो,
15 He asked them, “If I enable you to seize [Jesus], how much [money] are you willing to give me?” They [agreed to give him] 30 silver coins. So they counted out the coins and [gave them] to him.
र भन्यो, “उहाँलाई तपाईंहरूकहाँ पक्राइदिनलाई तपाईंहरूले मलाई के दिन तयार हुनुहुन्छ?” तिनीहरूले उसको निम्ति तिसवटा चाँदीका सिक्‍का छुट्‌ट्याइदिए ।
16 From that time Judas watched for an opportunity to enable them to seize [Jesus].
त्यस बेलादेखि उहाँलाई तिनीहरूका हातमा पक्राइदिनलाई उसले मौका खोजिरह्‍यो ।
17 On the first day [of the week-long festival] (when [we Jews ate] bread which had no yeast in it/of Unleavened Bread), [we] disciples went to Jesus and asked, “Where do you want us to prepare [the meal for] the Passover [celebration] so that [we can] eat [it with] you?”
अब अखमिरी रोटीको चाडको पहिलो दिनमा चेलाहरू येशूकहाँ आएर भने, “हामीले तपाईंको निम्ति निस्तार-चाडको भोज कहाँ तयार पारेको तपाईं चाहनुहुन्छ?”
18 [In reply], he [gave instructions to two disciples about where they should go. He] said [to them], “Go into [the city] to a man [with whom I have previously arranged this]. Tell him that the teacher says, ‘The time [MTY] [that I told you about] is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover [meal] with my disciples at your house, [and I have sent these two to prepare the meal].’”
उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “सहरमा एक जना व्यक्‍तिकहाँ जाओ र उसलाई भन, ‘गुरुले भन्‍नुहुन्छ, मेरो समय नजिकै आइपुगेको छ । म तिम्रो घरमा चेलाहरूसँगै निस्तार-चाड मनाउन चाहन्छु ।’”
19 So the [two] disciples did as Jesus told them. They [went and] prepared the Passover [meal in that man’s house].
येशूले जस्तो निर्देशन दिनुभएको थियो, चेलाहरूले त्यस्तै गरे, र उनीहरूले निस्तार-चाडको निम्ति तयारी गरे ।
20 When it was evening, Jesus was eating the meal with [us] twelve disciples.
जब साँझ पर्‍यो, उहाँ आफ्ना बाह्र चेलासँग भोज खानलाई बस्‍नुभयो ।
21 While we were eating, he said [to us], “Listen carefully to this: One of you is going to enable [my enemies] to seize me.”
जब उहाँ र चेलाहरू खाइरहनुभएको थियो, उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “साँच्‍चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि तिमीहरूमध्ये एक जनाले मलाई धोका दिनेछ ।”
22 [We] were very sad. We began to say to him, one after the other, “Lord, (it is surely not I!/I’m not the one, am I?) [RHQ]”
उनीहरू सबै अति दुःखित भए, र हरेकले उहाँलाई यसरी सोध्‍न थाले, “प्रभु, म त निश्‍चय नै होइन होला?”
23 He replied, “The one who will enable my enemies to seize me is one of you who is dipping bread [MTY] into [the sauce in] the dish along with me.
उहाँले जवाफ दिनुभयो, “जसले मसँगै यस कचौरामा हात डुबाउँछ, उसले नै मलाई धोका दिनेछ ।
24 [It is certain that] I, the one who came from heaven, will [die], because that is what has been written {[the prophets] have written} about me. But there will be terrible punishment for the man who enables [my enemies] to seize me! It would be better for that man if he had never been born!”
मानिसका पुत्र त्यहीअनुसार नै जानेछन् जसरी उनको बारेमा लेखिएको छ । तर धिक्‍कार त्यस व्यक्‍तिलाई जसको कारण मानिसका पुत्रलाई धोका हुन्छ! त्यो व्यक्‍ति त नजन्मिएकै भए त्यसको निम्ति असल हुने थियो ।”
25 Then Judas, the one who was going to betray him, said, “Teacher, (surely it is not I!/I’m not the one, am I?) [RHQ]” Jesus replied, “Yes, you are the one.”
यहूदा जसले उहाँलाई धोका दिनेवाला थियो, उसले भन्यो, “रब्बी, के त्यो म हुँ?” उहाँले त्यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तिमी आफैँले त्यो भनेका छौ ।”
26 While we were eating, Jesus took [a small loaf of] bread and thanked God for it. He broke it [into pieces] and gave it to [us] disciples, and said, “Take this [bread and] eat [it]. [It represents] my body.”
उहाँ र चेलाहरूले खाइरहनुहुँदा येशूले रोटी लिनुभई धन्यवाद दिनुभयो र त्यो भाँच्‍नुभयो । उहाँले त्यो आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई दिनुभयो र भन्‍नुभयो, “लेओ, खाओ । यो मेरो शरीर हो ।”
27 Later he took a cup [of wine] and thanked [God for it]. Then he gave it to us, saying, “Drink some [of the wine in this cup], all of you.
उहाँले कचौरा लिनुभयो र धन्यवाद दिनुभयो, अनि त्यो उनीहरूलाई दिनुभयो र भन्‍नुभयो, “तिमीहरू सबैले यसलाई पिओ ।
28 [The wine in] this cup [represents] my blood, which will soon flow [from my body. With] my blood I [will sign] the new agreement [that God is making] to forgive the sins of many [people].
किनकि यो करारमा भएको मेरो रगत हो जुन धेरैका पापको क्षमादानको निम्ति बगाइएको छ ।
29 Note this carefully: I will not drink wine in this way any more until the time when I drink it with you with a new [meaning. That will happen] when my Father [enables me to begin] to rule as king.”
तर म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, म यस बोटको फलबाट अब फेरि पिउनेछैन, जबसम्म मेरा पिताको राज्यमा म तिमीहरूसँग नयाँ गरी पिउँदिन ।”
30 After we sang a hymn, we started out towards Olive [Tree] Hill.
उहाँहरू सबैले भजन गाइसक्‍नुभएपछि उहाँहरू जैतून डाँडातर्फ लाग्‍नुभयो ।
31 [On the way], Jesus told us, “This night all of you will desert me because of [what will happen to] me! [This is certain to happen] because [these words that God said] are written [in the Scriptures: ] ‘I will [cause] the shepherd to be killed, and [all] the sheep will be scattered {scatter}.’
त्यसपछि येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “आज राती मेरो कारण तिमीहरू सबै पछि हट्नेछौ, किनकि यसरी लेखिएको छ, ‘म गोठालोलाई प्रहार गर्नेछु र बथानका सबै भेडा तितरबितर हुनेछन् ।’
32 But after I have [died and] become alive again, I will go ahead of you to Galilee [district and meet you there].”
तर म उठाइएपछि म तिमीहरूभन्दा अगि गालीलमा जानेछु ।”
33 Peter replied, “Perhaps all [the other disciples] will desert you [when they see what happens to you], but I [certainly] will never [leave you]!”
तर पत्रुसले उहाँलाई भने, “तपाईंको कारणले सबै जना पछि हटे तापनि म कहिल्यै पछि हट्नेछैनँ ।”
34 Jesus replied to him, “The truth is that this very night, before the rooster crows, you will say three times that you do not know me!”
येशूले उनलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “साँच्‍चै म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, आज राती भाले बास्‍नुभन्दा अगि तिमीले मलाई तिन पल्ट इन्कार गर्नेछौ ।”
35 Peter said to him, “Even if they kill me [while I am defending you], I will never say that I do not know you!” All [the rest of us] disciples also said the same [thing].
पत्रुसले उहाँलाई भने, “म तपाईंसँगै मर्नुपरे तापनि म तपाईंलाई इन्कार गर्नेछैनँ ।” अनि अरू सबै चेलाले पनि त्यसै भने ।
36 Then Jesus went with us to a place that is called {that people call} Gethsemane. There he said to [most of] us, “Stay here while I go over there and pray.”
त्यसपछि येशू उनीहरूसँगै गेतसमनी भन्‍ने ठाउँमा जानुभयो र आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “म अलि पर गएर प्रार्थना गर्छु, तर तिमीहरूचाहिँ यहीँ बस ।”
37 He took Peter, James, and John with him. He became extremely distressed.
उहाँले पत्रुस र जब्दियाका दुई छोरालाई आफूसँग लिएर जानुभयो, र शोकित र व्याकुल हुन थाल्नुभयो ।
38 Then he said to them, “I [SYN] am very sorrowful, so much so that I [feel as if I were] about to die! Remain here and stay awake with me!”
त्यसपछि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “मेरो आत्मा अत्यधिक शोकले भरिएर मरेतुल्य भएको छ । यहीँ बस र मसँगै जागा रहो ।”
39 After going a little further, he threw himself face down [on the ground]. He prayed, “My Father, if it is possible [MTY], do not make me have to endure the suffering [that is coming] now. But do not do as I want. Instead, do as you want!”
उहाँ अलि पर जानुभयो, आफ्ना घुँडा टेक्दै घोप्‍टो पर्नुभयो र प्रार्थना गर्नुभयो । उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “हे मेरा पिता, सम्भव भए, यो कचौरा मबाट हटिजाओस् । तर, मैले इच्छा गरेजस्तो होइन, तपाईंको इच्छाजस्तो होस् ।”
40 Then he returned to the [three] disciples and saw that they were sleeping. He [woke] Peter and said to him, “(I am disappointed that you [men fell asleep and] were not able to stay awake with me for just a short time!/Why were you men not able to stay awake with me for just one hour?) [RHQ]
उहाँ चेलाहरूकहाँ आउनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई सुतिरहेको भेट्टाउनुभयो, र उहाँले पत्रुसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “के तिमीहरू मसँग एक घण्टाको लागि पनि जागा रहन सकेनौ?
41 You must keep alert and pray so that you can resist when you are tempted {something tempts you}. You want [to do what I tell you], but you [SYN] are not strong enough [to actually do it].”
जागा रहो र परीक्षामा नपर्नको निम्ति प्रार्थना गर । आत्मा त तयार छ, तर शरीर भने कमजोर छ ।”
42 He went away a second time. He prayed, “My Father, if it is necessary for me to suffer [LIT], may what you want happen!”
उहाँ दोस्रो पटक पनि पर जानुभयो र प्रार्थना गर्नुभयो, र भन्‍नुभयो, “हे मेरा पिता, यदि मैले नपीकन यो हुँदैन भने, तपाईंकै इच्छा पुरा होस् ।”
43 When he returned to the [three disciples], he saw that they were asleep [again]. They could not keep their eyes open [IDM].
उहाँ फेरि आउनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई सुतिरहेको भेट्टाउनुभयो, किनकि तिनीहरूका आँखा लोलाएका थिए ।
44 So he left them and went away again. He prayed the third time, saying the same thing [that he had prayed before].
त्यसपछि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई फेरि छोड्नुभयो र पर जानुभयो । उहाँले तेस्रो पल्ट प्रार्थना गर्नुभयो र उही वचन दोहोर्‍याउनुभयो ।
45 Then he returned to us disciples. He [woke] us [up and] said to us, “(I am disappointed that you are still sleeping and resting!/Why are you still sleeping and resting?) [RHQ] [Look] Someone is about to enable sinful [men] to seize [me], the one who came from heaven!
त्यसपछि येशू चेलाहरूकहाँ आउनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “के तिमीहरू अझै पनि सुतिरहेका छौ र आराम गरिरहेका छौ? हेर, त्यो घडी आइसकेको छ, र मानिसका पुत्रलाई पापीहरूको हातमा धोकासाथ सुम्पिँदै छ ।
46 Get up! Let’s go [to meet them] Here comes the one who is enabling them to seize me!”
उठ, अब हामी जाऔँ । हेर, मलाई धोका दिनेचाहिँ नजिकै छ ।”
47 While [Jesus] was still speaking, Judas [arrived. Even though he was] one of [us] twelve [disciples], he came [to enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him]. A large crowd carrying swords and clubs was with him. They had been sent by the chief priests and elders {the chief priests and [Jewish] elders had sent them}.
जब उहाँ बोलिरहनुभएको थियो, बाह्रमध्ये एक जना अर्थात् यहूदा आए । मुख्य पुजारीहरू र मानिसहरूका एल्डरहरूको एउटा ठुलो भिड ऊसँगै आयो । तिनीहरू लाठीहरू र तरवारहरू बोकेर आए ।
48 Judas had [previously] arranged to give them a signal, saying, “The man whom I will kiss is the one [you want]. Seize him!”
अब जुन व्यक्‍तिले येशूलाई धोका दिन लागेको थियो, त्यसले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भनी सङ्केत दिएको थियो, “जसलाई म चुम्बन गर्छु, उनी नै हुन् । उनलाई नै पक्रनू ।”
49 He immediately went to Jesus and said, “Greetings, Teacher!” Then he kissed Jesus [on the neck/cheek].
तुरुन्तै ऊ येशूकहाँ आयो र भन्यो, “रब्बी, अभिवादन!” अनि उसले उहाँलाई चुम्बन गर्‍यो ।
50 Jesus replied, “Friend, is it [to kiss me] that you are here?” (OR, “Do what you have come for!”) Then [the men who came with Judas] stepped forward and seized Jesus.
येशूले उसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “मित्र, तिमीले जे गर्न आएका छौ त्यो गरिहाल ।” त्यसपछि तिनीहरू आए, र येशूमाथि हात राखे, र उहाँलाई पक्रे ।
51 Suddenly, one of the men who was with Jesus pulled his sword out [of its sheath]. He struck the servant of the high priest [to kill him], [but only] cut off his ear.
हेर, येशूसँग भएकाहरूमध्ये एक जनाले आफ्नो हात उठायो; आफ्नो तरवार थुत्यो, र मुख्य पुजारीको एउटा नोकरमाथि प्रहार गर्‍यो, अनि उसको कान काटिदियो ।
52 Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back in its sheath! All those who try to kill others with a sword will themselves be killed with a sword!
त्यसपछि येशूले उसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “आफ्नो तरवारलाई त्यसको स्थानमा राख, किनकि ज-जसले तरवार उठाउँछन् तिनीहरू तरवारद्वारा नै नष्‍ट पारिनेछन् ।
53 Do you think that [RHQ] if I asked my Father, he would not immediately send more than (twelve armies of/72,000) angels to help me?
के तिमीहरू विचार गर्दछौ, कि मैले मेरा पितालाई पुकार्न सक्दिनँ र? के उहाँले मेरो निम्ति स्वर्गदूतहरूका बाह्र पल्टन पठाइदिनुहुन्‍न र?
54 [But if I did that, what the prophets] have written in the Scriptures [about what will happen to the Messiah] would not be fulfilled {happen} [RHQ].”
तर यस्तो हुनुपर्छ भनी धर्मशास्‍त्रले भनेको कसरी पुरा हुने थियो त?”
55 At that time Jesus said to the crowd [that was seizing him], “(It is ridiculous that you have come [here] to seize me with swords and clubs, as [if I were] a bandit!/Have you come here to seize me with swords and clubs, as if I were a bandit?) [RHQ] Day after day I sat in the Temple [courtyard], teaching [the people]. Why did you not arrest me [then]?
त्यति बेला येशूले भिडलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “के तिमीहरू तरवार र लाठाहरू लिएर चोरलाई झैँ मलाई पक्रन आएका छौ? म दिनहुँ मन्दिरमा सिकाउँदै बसेँ, अनि तिमीहरूले मलाई पक्रेनौ ।
56 But all this is happening to fulfill what the prophets [have written in] the Scriptures [about me].” Then all of us disciples deserted Jesus and ran away.
तर यी सबै कुरा भए, ताकि अगमवक्‍ताहरूले लेखेका कुरा पुरा हुन सकून् ।” त्यसपछि सबै चेलाले उहाँलाई छोडे र भागे ।
57 The men who had seized Jesus took him [to the house where] Caiaphas, the high priest, [lived]. The men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the [Jewish] elders had already gathered [there].
जसले येशूलाई पक्रेका थिए तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई प्रधान पुजारी कैयाफाकहाँ लगे, जहाँ शास्‍त्रीहरू र एल्डरहरू एकसाथ भेला भएका थिए ।
58 Peter followed [Jesus] at a distance. He came to the high priest’s courtyard. He entered [the courtyard] and sat down with the guards to see what would happen.
तर पत्रुसले प्रधान पुजारीको आँगनसम्म उहाँलाई टाढैबाट पछ्याइरहे । उनी भित्र गए र परिणाम कस्तो हुने होला भनेर हेर्न पहरेदारहरूसँगै बसे ।
59 The chief priests and the rest of the [Jewish] Council were trying to find people who would tell lies about Jesus so that they could [convince the Roman authorities to] execute him.
अब मुख्य पुजारीहरू र सम्पूर्ण परिषद्ले येशूलाई मृत्युदण्ड दिन उहाँको विरुद्धमा झुटो गवाही खोजिरहेका थिए ।
60 But even though many people spoke lies about him, they did not find anyone [who said anything that was useful]. Finally two men came forward
थुप्रै झुटा गवाह अगि आए तापनि उनीहरूले कुनै प्रमाण भेट्टाएनन् । तर पछि दुई जना अगि आए,
61 and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy God’s Temple and to rebuild it within three days.’”
र भने, “यो मानिसले यसो भन्यो, ‘मैले परमेश्‍वरको मन्दिरलाई भत्काएर यसलाई तिन दिनमा पुनर्निर्माण गर्न सक्छु’ ।”
62 Then the high priest stood up and said to Jesus, “Are you not going to reply? What [do you say about] these things that they are saying [to accuse] you?”
प्रधान पुजारी उभिए र उहाँलाई भने, “के तिमीसँग कुनै उत्तर छैन? यी मानिसहरूले तिम्रो विरुद्धमा दिइरहेका गवाही के हो?”
63 But Jesus remained silent. Then the high priest said to him, “I command you to tell us [the truth], knowing that the all-powerful God [is listening to you]: Are you the Messiah, (the Son of God/the man who is also God)?”
तर येशू चुप रहनुभयो । प्रधान पुजारीले उहाँलाई भने, “जीवित परमेश्‍वरको नाउँमा म तिमीलाई आज्ञा गर्दछु, हामीलाई बताऊ कि के तिमी ख्रीष्‍ट अर्थात् परमेश्‍वरका पुत्र हौ?”
64 Jesus replied, “Yes, [it is as] you say. But I will also say this to all of you: Some day you will see [me], the one who came from heaven, sitting beside [MTY] Almighty [God], and ruling. You will also see me coming on the clouds [from] heaven!”
येशूले तिनलाई जवाफ दिनुभयो, “त्यो तपाईं आफैँले नै भन्‍नुभएको छ । तर म तपाईंलाई भन्दछु, कि अबदेखि उसो तपाईंले मानिसका पुत्रलाई सर्वशक्‍तिमान्‌को दाहिने हाततिर बसिरहेका र स्वर्गका बादलहरूमाथि आउँदै गरेका देख्‍नुहुनेछ ।”
65 Then the high priest tore his outer garment. [That was the custom to show that he was shocked to hear Jesus say that he was equal to God]. Then he said, “This man has insulted God! He claims to be equal with God! (We certainly do not need anyone else to testify [against this man]!/Why should we seek any more people who will testify [against this man]?) [RHQ] You heard what he said!
त्यसपछि प्रधान पुजारीले आफ्ना लुगा च्याते र भने, “यसले ईश्‍वर-निन्दा गरेको छ । अब हामीलाई अरू थप गवाहहरूको आवश्यकता किन पर्‍यो? हेर्नुहोस्, अब तपाईंहरूले यिनको ईश्‍वर-निन्दा सुन्‍नुभएको छ ।
66 What have you decided?” [The Jewish leaders] replied, “[According to our laws], he [is guilty and] deserves to be executed!”
तपाईंहरू के विचार गर्नुहुन्छ?” उनीहरूले जवाफ दिएर भने, “यो मारिनको लागि योग्य छ ।”
67 Then [some of them] spat in his face. [Others] struck him with their fists. Others, [after they blindfolded him], slapped him
त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले उहाँको मुखमा थुके र उहाँलाई पिटे, र तिनीहरूका हातले उहाँलाई हिर्काए,
68 and said, “[Since you claim that] [IRO] [you are] the Messiah, tell us who hit you!”
र भने, “हे ख्रीष्‍ट, अब हामीलाई अगमवाणी गरी भन्, तँलाई हिर्काउने को हो?”
69 Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A servant girl came up to him [and looked at him]. She said, “You also were with Jesus, [that man] from Galilee [district]!”
अब पत्रुसचाहिँ बाहिर आँगनमा बसिरहेका थिए र एउटी दासी उनीकहाँ आई र भनी, “तिमी पनि यी गालीलका येशूसँग थियौ, होइन र?”
70 But while everyone there was listening, he denied it. He said, “I do not know what you are talking about!”
तर उनले तिनीहरू सबैका अगि यसो भन्दै यस कुरालाई इन्कार गरे, “तिमीले केको बारेमा कुरा गरिरहेका छौ, मलाई त्यो थाहा छैन ।”
71 Then he went out to the gateway of the courtyard. Another servant girl saw him and said to the people who were standing nearby, “This man was with Jesus, [the man] from Nazareth.”
जब उनी ढोकातिर बाहिर गए, अर्की दासीले उनलाई देखी र त्यहाँ भएकाहरूलाई भनी, “यो व्यक्‍ति पनि नासरतको येशूसँग थियो ।”
72 But [Peter] again denied it. He said, “May God punish me [if I am lying]! I [tell you], I do not even know that man!”
अनि उनले पुनः शपथ खाँदै इन्कार गरे, “म यी मानिसलाई चिन्दिनँ ।”
73 After a little while, one of the people who were standing there approached Peter and said to him, “It is certain that you are one of those [who were with that man]. We can tell from your accent that you [are from Galilee.”]
त्यसको केही समयपछि त्यहाँ उभिरहेका मानिसहरू आए र पत्रुसलाई भने, “निश्‍चय नै तिमी पनि तिनीहरूमध्ये कै एक हौ, किनकि तिम्रो बोलीले नै यो सङ्केत गर्दछ ।”
74 Then Peter began to proclaim loudly that God should curse him [if he was lying]. He asked God in heaven to witness [that he was telling the truth] and said, “I do not know that man!” Immediately a rooster crowed.
त्यसपछि उनले सराप्‍न र शपथ खान लागे, “म यी मानिसलाई चिन्दिनँ,” अनि तुरुन्तै भाले बास्यो ।
75 Then Peter remembered the words that Jesus had spoken [to him], “Before the rooster crows, you will say three times that you do not know me.” And Peter went [out of the courtyard], crying because he was very sad [about what he had done].
अनि येशूले भन्‍नुभएको वचनलाई पत्रुसले सम्झे, “भाले बास्‍नुभन्दा अगि तिमीले मलाई तिन पल्ट इन्कार गर्नेछौ ।” त्यसपछि उनी बाहिर गए र धुरुधुरु रोए ।
