< Mark 4 >
1 Once more He began to teach by the side of the Lake, and a vast multitude of people came together to listen to Him. He therefore went on board the boat and sat there, a little way from the land; and all the people were on the shore close to the water.
फेरि उहाँले समुद्रको छेउमा सिकाउन थाल्नुभयो । अनि धेरै ठुलो भिड उहाँको वरिपरि भेला भयो । त्यसैले, उहाँ समुद्रमा भएको एउटा डुङ्गामा चढ्नुभयो र बस्नुभयो । सबै भिड समुद्र किनारको छेउमा थिए ।
2 Then He proceeded to teach them many lessons in figurative language; and in His teaching He said,
उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई धेरै कुरा दृष्टान्तमा सिकाउनुभयो र सिकाउँदै गर्दा उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो,
3 "Listen: the sower goes out to sow.
“सुन, बिउ छर्ने बिउ छर्न निस्क्यो ।
4 As he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and the birds come and peck it up.
त्यसले बिउ छर्दा केही बिउ बाटोमा परे र चराहरू आएर ती बिउहरू खाइदिए ।
5 Some falls on the rocky ground where it finds but little earth, and it shoots up quickly because it has no depth of soil;
अरू बिउहरूचाहिँ त्यति माटो नभएको ढुङ्गेनी जमिनमा परे । तिनीहरू तुरुन्तै उम्रिए, किनभने त्यहाँ माटो गहिरो थिएन ।
6 but when the sun is risen, it is scorched, and through having no root it withers away.
तर जब घाम लाग्यो, तिनीहरू ओइलाए, अनि तिनीहरूको जरा नभएकोले र ती सुकिहाले ।
7 Some, again, falls among the thorns; and the thorns spring up and stifle it, so that it yields no crop.
अरू बिउहरू काँढाका झाङहरूमा परे । काँढाका झाङहरू बढे, र ती निसासिए, अनि तिनीहरूले कुनै फल फलाएनन् ।
8 But some of the seed falls into good ground, and gives a return: it comes up and increases, and yields thirty, sixty, or a hundred-fold."
अरू बिउहरू असल जमिनमा परे, र यो बढ्दै र हुर्कंदै गर्दा फल फलाए, केहीले तिस गुणा, साठी गुणा र सय गुणाभन्दा बढी फल फलाए ।”
9 "Listen," He added, "every one who has ears to listen with!"
अनि उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “जसको सुन्ने कान छ, त्यसले सुनोस् ।”
10 When He was alone, the Twelve and the others who were about Him requested Him to explain His figurative language.
येशू एकलै हुनुहुँदा उहाँका नजिकका मानिसहरू र बाह्र जना चेलाले उक्त दृष्टान्तको बारेमा उहाँसँग सोधे ।
11 "To you," He replied, "has been entrusted the secret truth concerning the Kingdom of God; but to those others outside your number all this is spoken in figurative language;
उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, तिमीहरूलाई परमेश्वरको राज्यको रहस्य दिइएको छ । तर बाहिरकाहरूलाई हरेक कुरा दृष्टान्तहरूमा दिइएको छ ।
12 that "'They may look and look but not see, and listen and listen but not understand, lest perchance they should return and be pardoned.'"
त्यसैले, जब तिनीहरूले हेर्छन्, हो, तिनीहरूले हेर्छन्, तर देख्दैनन्, र जब तिनीहरूले सुन्छन्, हो, तिनीहरूले सुन्छन्, तर बुझ्दैनन्, नत्रता तिनीहरू फर्कन्थे र परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई क्षमा गर्नुहुने थियो ।”
13 "Do you all miss the meaning of this parable?" He added; "how then will you understand the rest of my parables?"
अनि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “के तिमीहरूले यो दृष्टान्त बुझ्दैनौ? त्यसो भए, तिमीहरूले अरू दृष्टान्तहरू कसरी बुझ्नेछौ?”
14 "What the sower sows is the Message.
बिउ छर्नेले वचन छर्छ ।
15 Those who receive the seed by the way-side are those in whom the Message is sown, but, when they have heard it, Satan comes at once and carries away the Message sown in them.
वचन छर्दा बाटोतिर परेका केही बिउ यी नै हुन् । जब तिनीहरूले वचन सुन्छन्, र तुरुन्तै शैतान आउँछ र तिनीहरूमा छरिएका वचन खोसेर लैजान्छ ।
16 In the same way those who receive the seed on the rocky places are those who, when they have heard the Message, at once accept it joyfully,
ढुङ्गेनी जमिनमा छरिएका केही बिउचाहिँ यी नै हुन्, जब तिनीहरूले वचन सुन्छन्, तिनीहरूले यसलाई तुरुन्तै आनन्दसाथ ग्रहण गर्छन् ।
17 but they have no root within them. They last for a time; then, when suffering or persecution comes because of the Message, they are immediately overthrown.
तिनीहरूको आफ्नो कुनै जरा हुँदैन, तर केही समयसम्म मात्र टिक्छन् । वचनको कारणले सङ्कष्ट वा सतावट आउँदा तिनीहरूले तुरुन्तै ठेस खान्छन् ।
18 Others there are who receive the seed among the thorns: these are they who have heard the Message,
अरूहरूचाहिँ ती हुन्, जो काँढाका झाङहरूका माझमा छरिएका छन् । तिनीहरूले वचन सुन्छन्,
19 but worldly cares and the deceitfulness of wealth and the excessive pursuit of other objects come in and stifle the Message, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn )
तर संसारको फिक्री, धन-सम्पत्तिको छल र अन्य कुराहरूको लालसा प्रवेश गर्छन् जसले वचनलाई निसासिदिन्छन् र यो फलदायी हुँदैन । (aiōn )
20 Those, on the other hand, who have received the seed on the good ground, are all who hear the Message and welcome it, and yield a return of thirty, sixty, or a hundred fold."
असल जमिनमा छरिएका बिउहरूचाहिँ ती नै हुन् । तिनीहरूले वचन सुन्छन्; यसलाई ग्रहण गर्छन् अनि केहीले तिस गुणा, केहीले साठी गुणा र केहीले सय गुणा फल फलाउँछन् ।”
21 He went on to say, "Is the lamp brought in in order to be put under the bushel or under the bed? Is it not rather in order that it may be placed on the lampstand?
येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “के तिमीहरूले बत्तीलाई पाथीमुनि अथवा खाटमुनि राख्न घरभित्र ल्याउँछौ? तिमीहरूले यसलाई ल्याउँछौ र सामदानमाथि राख्छौ ।
22 Why, there is nothing hidden except with a view to its being ultimately disclosed, nor has anything been made a secret but that it may at last come to light.
किनभने प्रकट नहुने गरी कुनै पनि कुरा लुकाइएको छैन, र खुलस्त नै नहुने कुनै पनि गुप्त कुरा छैन ।
23 Listen, every one who has ears to listen with!"
यदि कसैको सुन्ने कान छ भने, त्यसले सुनोस् ।”
24 He also said to them, "Take care what you hear. With what measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and that with interest.
उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूले जे सुन्छौ, किनभने त्यसमा ध्यान देओ, किनभने जुन नापले तिमीहरू नाप्छौ, त्यही नापले तिमीहरूलाई पनि नापिनेछ (मापन गरिनेछ), र यो तिमीहरूलाई थपिनेछ ।
25 For those who have will have more given them; and from those who have not, even what they have will be taken away."
किनभने जोसँग छ, त्यसलाई अझ बढ्ता गरी दिइनेछ र जोसँग छैन, त्यससँग भएको पनि खोसिनेछ ।”
26 Another saying of His was this: "The Kingdom of God is as if a man scattered seed over the ground:
येशूले भन्नुभयो, “परमेश्वरको राज्य जमिनमा बिउ छर्ने मानिसजस्तो हो ।
27 he spends days and nights, now awake, now asleep, while the seed sprouts and grows tall, he knows not how.
ऊ रातमा सुत्छ अनि दिन भएपछि उठ्छ, अनि कसरी भयो भन्ने उसले नजाने पनि बिउ उम्रन्छ र बढ्छ ।
28 Of itself the land produces the crop-- first the blade, then the ear; afterwards the perfect grain is seen in the ear.
जमिन आफैँले अन्न (फल) फलाउँछः पहिला टुसा पलाउँछ, त्यसपछि बाला लाग्छ अनि बालामा अन्न पाक्छ ।
29 But no sooner is the crop ripe, than he sends the reapers, because the time of harvest has come."
जब अन्न पाक्छ, तुरुन्तै उसले त्यसलाई हँसियाले काट्छ, किनभने कटनीको समय आएको छ ।”
30 Another saying of His was this: "How are we to picture the Kingdom of God? or by what figure of speech shall we represent it?
उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “हामीले परमेश्वरको राज्यलाई केसँग तुलना गर्ने अथवा यसलाई व्याख्या गर्न कुन दृष्टान्त प्रयोग गर्न सकिन्छ?
31 It is like a mustard-seed, which, when sown in the earth, is the smallest of all the seeds in the world;
यो रायोको (तोरीको) बिउजस्तो हो । यसलाई छर्दा पृथ्वीका बिउहरूमध्ये यो सबैभन्दा सानो हुन्छ ।
32 yet when sown it springs up and becomes larger than all the herbs, and throws out great branches, so that the birds build under its shadow."
तैपनि यसलाई छरेपछि यो बढ्छ र बगैँचाका सबै बिरुवाभन्दा ठुलो हुन्छ । यसमा ठुला हाँगाहरू पलाउँछ, ताकि आकाशमा उड्ने चराहरूले त्यसको छहारीमा गुँड बनाउन सकून् ।
33 With many such parables He used to speak the Message to them according to their capacity for receiving it.
यस्ता धेरै दृष्टान्तद्वारा तिनीहरूले बुझ्न सक्नेसम्म उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई वचन सुनाउनुभयो ।
34 But except in figurative language He spoke nothing to them; while to His own disciples He expounded everything, in private.
अनि उहाँले दृष्टान्तविना केही बताउनुभएन । तर उहाँ गुप्तमा हुनुहुँदा उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई सबै कुरा व्याख्या गरिदिनुभयो ।
35 The same day, in the evening, He said to them, "Let us cross to the other side."
त्यो दिन जब साँझ पर्यो, उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तालको पारिपट्टि जाऔँ ।”
36 So they got away from the crowd, and took Him--as He was--in the boat; and other boats accompanied Him.
त्यसैले, तिनीहरूले येशूलाई साथैमा लिएर त्यो भिडलाई छोडी राखेर गए, किनकि उहाँ पहिले नै डुङ्गामा हुनुहुन्थ्यो । उहाँसँग अरू डुङ्गाहरू पनि साथमा थिए ।
37 But a heavy squall came on, and the waves were now dashing into the boat, so that it was fast filling.
त्यहाँ भयङ्कर आँधी चल्न थाल्यो र छालहरू डुङ्गामा पस्न लागे, अनि डुङ्गा पानीले भरिन लाग्यो ।
38 But He Himself was in the stern asleep, with His head on the cushion: so they woke Him. "Rabbi," they cried, "is it nothing to you that we are drowning?"
तर येशू डुङ्गाको पछिल्लो भागमा सिरानी लगाएर मस्त निदाउनुभएको थियो । तिनीहरूले भने, “गुरुज्यू, हामी मर्न लागिसक्दा पनि तपाईंलाई वास्ता छैन?”
39 So He roused Himself and rebuked the wind, and said to the waves, "Silence! Be still!" The wind sank, and a perfect calm set in.
अनि उहाँ ब्युँझनुभयो र बतासलाई हप्काउनुभयो अनि समुद्रलाई भन्नुभयो, “शान्त हो र रोकिजा ।” अनि बतास चल्न रोकियो र त्यहाँ सन्नाटा छायो ।
40 "Why are you so timid?" He asked; "have you still no faith?"
उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरू किन डराएको? के तिमीहरूसँग अझै विश्वास छैन?”
41 Then they were filled with terror, and began to say to one another, "Who is this, then? For even wind and sea obey Him."
तिनीहरू साह्रै डराए र एकले अर्कालाई भने, “यिनी को हुन्, किनभने बतास र समुद्रले पनि यिनले भनेको मान्छन्?”
