Luke 5
1 Once, when the people were pressing round Jesus as they listened to God’s Message, he happened to be standing by the shore of the Lake of Gennesaret, and saw two boats close to the shore.

2 The fishermen had gone away from them and were washing the nets.
tadAnIM sa hdasya tIrasamIpE naudvayaM dadarza kinjca matsyOpajIvinO nAvaM vihAya jAlaM prakSAlayanti|
3 So, getting into one of the boats, which belonged to Simon, Jesus asked him to push off a little way from the shore, and then sat down and taught the people from the boat.

4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon: “Push off into deep water, and throw out your nets for a haul.”
pazcAt taM prastAvaM samApya sa zimOnaM vyAjahAra, gabhIraM jalaM gatvA matsyAn dharttuM jAlaM nikSipa|
5 “We have been hard at work all night, Sir,” answered Simon, “and have not caught anything, but, at your bidding, I will throw out the nets.”
tataH zimOna babhASE, hE gurO yadyapi vayaM kRtsnAM yAminIM parizramya matsyaikamapi na prAptAstathApi bhavatO nidEzatO jAlaM kSipAmaH|
6 They did so, and enclosed such a great shoal of fish that their nets began to break.

7 So they signalled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them; and they came and filled both the boats so full of fish that they were almost sinking.
tasmAd upakarttum anyanausthAn saggina AyAtum iggitEna samAhvayan tatasta Agatya matsyai rnaudvayaM prapUrayAmAsu ryai rnaudvayaM pramagnam|
8 When Simon Peter saw this, he threw himself down at Jesus’ knees, exclaiming: “Master, leave me, for I am a sinful man!”
tadA zimOnpitarastad vilOkya yIzOzcaraNayOH patitvA, hE prabhOhaM pApI narO mama nikaTAd bhavAn yAtu, iti kathitavAn|
9 For he and all who were with him were lost in amazement at the haul of fish which they had made;
yatO jAlE patitAnAM matsyAnAM yUthAt zimOn tatsagginazca camatkRtavantaH; zimOnaH sahakAriNau sivadEH putrau yAkUb yOhan cEmau tAdRzau babhUvatuH|
10 and so, too, were James and John, Zebediah’s sons, who were Simon’s partners. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon; “from to-day you shall catch men.”
tadA yIzuH zimOnaM jagAda mA bhaiSIradyArabhya tvaM manuSyadharO bhaviSyasi|
11 And, when they had brought their boats to shore, they left everything, and followed him.

12 On one occasion Jesus was staying in a town, when he saw a man who was covered with leprosy. When the leper saw Jesus, he threw himself on his face and implored his help: “Master, if only you are willing, you are able to make me clean.”
tataH paraM yIzau kasmiMzcit purE tiSThati jana EkaH sarvvAggakuSThastaM vilOkya tasya samIpE nyubjaH patitvA savinayaM vaktumArEbhE, hE prabhO yadi bhavAnicchati tarhi mAM pariSkarttuM zaknOti|
13 Stretching out his hand, Jesus touched him, saying as he did so: “I am willing; become clean.” Instantly the leprosy left the man;
tadAnIM sa pANiM prasAryya tadaggaM spRzan babhASE tvaM pariSkriyasvEti mamEcchAsti tatastatkSaNaM sa kuSThAt muktaH|
14 and then Jesus impressed upon him that he was not to say a word to any one, “but,” he added, “set out and show yourself to the priest, and make the offerings for your cleansing, in the manner directed by Moses, as evidence of your cure.”

15 However, the story about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came together to listen to him, and to be cured of their illnesses;
tathApi yIzOH sukhyAti rbahu vyAptumArEbhE kinjca tasya kathAM zrOtuM svIyarOgEbhyO mOktunjca lOkA AjagmuH|
16 but Jesus used to withdraw to lonely places and pray.
atha sa prAntaraM gatvA prArthayAnjcakrE|
17 On one of those days, when Jesus was teaching, some Pharisees and Doctors of the Law were sitting near by. (They had come from all the villages in Galilee and Judea, and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was upon Jesus, so that he could work cures.)

18 And there some men brought on a bed a man who was paralysed. They tried to get him in and lay him before Jesus;
pazcAt kiyantO lOkA EkaM pakSAghAtinaM khaTvAyAM nidhAya yIzOH samIpamAnEtuM sammukhE sthApayitunjca vyApriyanta|
19 but, finding no way of getting him in owing to the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him through the tiles, with his pallet, into the middle of the people and in front of Jesus.

20 When he saw their faith, Jesus said: “Friend, your sins have been forgiven you.”
tadA yIzustESAm IdRzaM vizvAsaM vilOkya taM pakSAghAtinaM vyAjahAra, hE mAnava tava pApamakSamyata|
21 The Teachers of the Law and the Pharisees began debating about this. “Who is this man who speaks so blasphemously?” they asked. “Who can forgive sins except God?”
tasmAd adhyApakAH phirUzinazca cittairitthaM pracintitavantaH, ESa jana IzvaraM nindati kOyaM? kEvalamIzvaraM vinA pApaM kSantuM kaH zaknOti?
22 When Jesus became aware of the way in which they were debating, he turned to them and exclaimed: “What are you debating with yourselves?
tadA yIzustESAm itthaM cintanaM viditvA tEbhyOkathayad yUyaM manObhiH kutO vitarkayatha?
23 Which is the easier? — to say ‘Your sins have been forgiven you’? or to say ‘Get up, and walk about’?

24 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins” — he spoke to the paralysed man — “To you I say, Get up, and take up your pallet, and go to your home.”

25 Instantly the man stood up before their eyes, took up what he had been lying on, and went to his home, praising God.
tasmAt sa tatkSaNam utthAya sarvvESAM sAkSAt nijazayanIyaM gRhItvA IzvaraM dhanyaM vadan nijanivEzanaM yayau|
26 The people, one and all, were lost in amazement, and praised God; and in great awe they said: “We have seen marvellous things to-day!”

27 After this, Jesus went out; and he noticed a tax-gatherer, named Levi, sitting in the tax-office, and said to him: “Follow me.”
tataH paraM bahirgacchan karasanjcayasthAnE lEvinAmAnaM karasanjcAyakaM dRSTvA yIzustamabhidadhE mama pazcAdEhi|
28 Levi left everything and got up and followed him.
tasmAt sa tatkSaNAt sarvvaM parityajya tasya pazcAdiyAya|
29 And Levi gave a great entertainment at his house, in honour of Jesus; and a large number of tax-gatherers and others were at table with them.

30 The Pharisees and the teachers of the Law belonging to their party complained of this to the disciples of Jesus.”

31 In answer Jesus said: “It is not those who are well that need a doctor, but those who are ill.
tasmAd yIzustAn pratyavOcad arOgalOkAnAM cikitsakEna prayOjanaM nAsti kintu sarOgANAmEva|
32 I have not come to call the religious, but the outcast, to repent.”

33 “John’s disciples,” they said to Jesus, “Often fast and say prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, while yours are eating and drinking!”
tatastE prOcuH, yOhanaH phirUzinAnjca ziSyA vAraMvAram upavasanti prArthayantE ca kintu tava ziSyAH kutO bhunjjatE pivanti ca?
34 But Jesus answered them: “Can you make the bridegroom’s friends fast while the bridegroom is with them?
tadA sa tAnAcakhyau varE saggE tiSThati varasya sakhigaNaM kimupavAsayituM zaknutha?
35 But the days will come — a time when the bridegroom will be parted from them; and they will fast then, when those days come.”

36 Then, as an illustration, Jesus said to them: “No man ever tears a piece from a new garment and puts it upon an old one; for, if he does, he will not only tear the new garment, but the piece from the new one will not match the old.

37 And no man puts new wine into old wine-skins; for, if he does, the new wine will burst the skins, and the wine itself will run out, and the skins be lost.

38 But new wine must be put into fresh skins.

39 No man after drinking old wine wishes for new. ‘No,’ he says, ‘the old is excellent.’”
