< Matthew 12 >
1 At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
anantaraṁ yīśu rviśrāmavārē śsyamadhyēna gacchati, tadā tacchiṣyā bubhukṣitāḥ santaḥ śsyamañjarīśchatvā chitvā khāditumārabhanta|
2 But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, “Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”
tad vilōkya phirūśinō yīśuṁ jagaduḥ, paśya viśrāmavārē yat karmmākarttavyaṁ tadēva tava śiṣyāḥ kurvvanti|
3 But he said to them, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him:
sa tān pratyāvadata, dāyūd tatsaṅginaśca bubhukṣitāḥ santō yat karmmākurvvan tat kiṁ yuṣmābhi rnāpāṭhi?
4 how he entered into God’s house and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?
yē darśanīyāḥ pūpāḥ yājakān vinā tasya tatsaṅgimanujānāñcābhōjanīyāsta īśvarāvāsaṁ praviṣṭēna tēna bhuktāḥ|
5 Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?
anyacca viśrāmavārē madhyēmandiraṁ viśrāmavārīyaṁ niyamaṁ laṅvantōpi yājakā nirdōṣā bhavanti, śāstramadhyē kimidamapi yuṣmābhi rna paṭhitaṁ?
6 But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.
yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi, atra sthānē mandirādapi garīyān ēka āstē|
7 But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn’t have condemned the guiltless.
kintu dayāyāṁ mē yathā prīti rna tathā yajñakarmmaṇi| ētadvacanasyārthaṁ yadi yuyam ajñāsiṣṭa tarhi nirdōṣān dōṣiṇō nākārṣṭa|
8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
anyacca manujasutō viśrāmavārasyāpi patirāstē|
9 He departed from there and went into their synagogue.
anantaraṁ sa tatsthānāt prasthāya tēṣāṁ bhajanabhavanaṁ praviṣṭavān, tadānīm ēkaḥ śuṣkakarāmayavān upasthitavān|
10 And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” so that they might accuse him.
tatō yīśum apavadituṁ mānuṣāḥ papracchuḥ, viśrāmavārē nirāmayatvaṁ karaṇīyaṁ na vā?
11 He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won’t he grab on to it and lift it out?
tēna sa pratyuvāca, viśrāmavārē yadi kasyacid avi rgarttē patati, tarhi yastaṁ ghr̥tvā na tōlayati, ētādr̥śō manujō yuṣmākaṁ madhyē ka āstē?
12 Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.”
avē rmānavaḥ kiṁ nahi śrēyān? atō viśrāmavārē hitakarmma karttavyaṁ|
13 Then he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other.
anantaraṁ sa taṁ mānavaṁ gaditavān, karaṁ prasāraya; tēna karē prasāritē sōnyakaravat svasthō'bhavat|
14 But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.
tadā phirūśinō bahirbhūya kathaṁ taṁ haniṣyāma iti kumantraṇāṁ tatprātikūlyēna cakruḥ|
15 Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all,
tatō yīśustad viditvā sthanāntaraṁ gatavān; anyēṣu bahunarēṣu tatpaścād gatēṣu tān sa nirāmayān kr̥tvā ityājñāpayat,
16 and commanded them that they should not make him known,
yūyaṁ māṁ na paricāyayata|
17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
tasmāt mama prīyō manōnītō manasastuṣṭikārakaḥ| madīyaḥ sēvakō yastu vidyatē taṁ samīkṣatāṁ| tasyōpari svakīyātmā mayā saṁsthāpayiṣyatē| tēnānyadēśajātēṣu vyavasthā saṁprakāśyatē|
18 “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit on him. He will proclaim justice to the nations.
kēnāpi na virōdhaṁ sa vivādañca kariṣyati| na ca rājapathē tēna vacanaṁ śrāvayiṣyatē|
19 He will not strive, nor shout, neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
vyavasthā calitā yāvat nahi tēna kariṣyatē| tāvat nalō vidīrṇō'pi bhaṁkṣyatē nahi tēna ca| tathā sadhūmavarttiñca na sa nirvvāpayiṣyatē|
20 He won’t break a bruised reed. He won’t quench a smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory.
pratyāśāñca kariṣyanti tannāmni bhinnadēśajāḥ|
21 In his name, the nations will hope.”
yānyētāni vacanāni yiśayiyabhaviṣyadvādinā prōktānyāsan, tāni saphalānyabhavan|
22 Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him; and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
anantaraṁ lōkai statsamīpam ānītō bhūtagrastāndhamūkaikamanujastēna svasthīkr̥taḥ, tataḥ sō'ndhō mūkō draṣṭuṁ vaktuñcārabdhavān|
23 All the multitudes were amazed, and said, “Can this be the son of David?”
anēna sarvvē vismitāḥ kathayāñcakruḥ, ēṣaḥ kiṁ dāyūdaḥ santānō nahi?
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
kintu phirūśinastat śrutvā gaditavantaḥ, bālsibūbnāmnō bhūtarājasya sāhāyyaṁ vinā nāyaṁ bhūtān tyājayati|
25 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
tadānīṁ yīśustēṣām iti mānasaṁ vijñāya tān avadat kiñcana rājyaṁ yadi svavipakṣād bhidyatē, tarhi tat ucchidyatē; yacca kiñcana nagaraṁ vā gr̥haṁ svavipakṣād vibhidyatē, tat sthātuṁ na śaknōti|
26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
tadvat śayatānō yadi śayatānaṁ bahiḥ kr̥tvā svavipakṣāt pr̥thak pr̥thak bhavati, tarhi tasya rājyaṁ kēna prakārēṇa sthāsyati?
27 If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
ahañca yadi bālsibūbā bhūtān tyājayāmi, tarhi yuṣmākaṁ santānāḥ kēna bhūtān tyājayanti? tasmād yuṣmākam ētadvicārayitārasta ēva bhaviṣyanti|
28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come upon you.
kintavahaṁ yadīśvarātmanā bhūtān tyājayāmi, tarhīśvarasya rājyaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sannidhimāgatavat|
29 Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.
anyañca kōpi balavanta janaṁ prathamatō na badvvā kēna prakārēṇa tasya gr̥haṁ praviśya taddravyādi lōṭhayituṁ śaknōti? kintu tat kr̥tvā tadīyagr̥sya dravyādi lōṭhayituṁ śaknōti|
30 “He who is not with me is against me, and he who doesn’t gather with me, scatters.
yaḥ kaścit mama svapakṣīyō nahi sa vipakṣīya āstē, yaśca mayā sākaṁ na saṁgr̥hlāti, sa vikirati|
31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
ataēva yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi, manujānāṁ sarvvaprakārapāpānāṁ nindāyāśca marṣaṇaṁ bhavituṁ śaknōti, kintu pavitrasyātmanō viruddhanindāyā marṣaṇaṁ bhavituṁ na śaknōti|
32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in that which is to come. (aiōn )
yō manujasutasya viruddhāṁ kathāṁ kathayati, tasyāparādhasya kṣamā bhavituṁ śaknōti, kintu yaḥ kaścit pavitrasyātmanō viruddhāṁ kathāṁ kathayati nēhalōkē na prētya tasyāparādhasya kṣamā bhavituṁ śaknōti| (aiōn )
33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.
pādapaṁ yadi bhadraṁ vadatha, tarhi tasya phalamapi sādhu vaktavyaṁ, yadi ca pādapaṁ asādhuṁ vadatha, tarhi tasya phalamapyasādhu vaktavyaṁ; yataḥ svīyasvīyaphalēna pādapaḥ paricīyatē|
34 You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
rē bhujagavaṁśā yūyamasādhavaḥ santaḥ kathaṁ sādhu vākyaṁ vaktuṁ śakṣyatha? yasmād antaḥkaraṇasya pūrṇabhāvānusārād vadanād vacō nirgacchati|
35 The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things.
tēna sādhurmānavō'ntaḥkaraṇarūpāt sādhubhāṇḍāgārāt sādhu dravyaṁ nirgamayati, asādhurmānuṣastvasādhubhāṇḍāgārād asādhuvastūni nirgamayati|
36 I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.
kintvahaṁ yuṣmān vadāmi, manujā yāvantyālasyavacāṁsi vadanti, vicāradinē taduttaramavaśyaṁ dātavyaṁ,
37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
yatastvaṁ svīyavacōbhi rniraparādhaḥ svīyavacōbhiśca sāparādhō gaṇiṣyasē|
38 Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”
tadānīṁ katipayā upādhyāyāḥ phirūśinaśca jagaduḥ, hē gurō vayaṁ bhavattaḥ kiñcana lakṣma didr̥kṣāmaḥ|
39 But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
tadā sa pratyuktavān, duṣṭō vyabhicārī ca vaṁśō lakṣma mr̥gayatē, kintu bhaviṣyadvādinō yūnasō lakṣma vihāyānyat kimapi lakṣma tē na pradarśayiṣyantē|
40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
yatō yūnam yathā tryahōrātraṁ br̥hanmīnasya kukṣāvāsīt, tathā manujaputrōpi tryahōrātraṁ mēdinyā madhyē sthāsyati|
41 The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here.
aparaṁ nīnivīyā mānavā vicāradina ētadvaṁśīyānāṁ pratikūlam utthāya tān dōṣiṇaḥ kariṣyanti, yasmāttē yūnasa upadēśāt manāṁsi parāvarttayāñcakrirē, kintvatra yūnasōpi gurutara ēka āstē|
42 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.
punaśca dakṣiṇadēśīyā rājñī vicāradina ētadvaṁśīyānāṁ pratikūlamutthāya tān dōṣiṇaḥ kariṣyati yataḥ sā rājñī sulēmanō vidyāyāḥ kathāṁ śrōtuṁ mēdinyāḥ sīmna āgacchat, kintu sulēmanōpi gurutara ēkō janō'tra āstē|
43 “When an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, and doesn’t find it.
aparaṁ manujād bahirgatō 'pavitrabhūtaḥ śuṣkasthānēna gatvā viśrāmaṁ gavēṣayati, kintu tadalabhamānaḥ sa vakti, yasmā; nikētanād āgamaṁ, tadēva vēśma pakāvr̥tya yāmi|
44 Then he says, ‘I will return into my house from which I came;’ and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
paścāt sa tat sthānam upasthāya tat śūnyaṁ mārjjitaṁ śōbhitañca vilōkya vrajan svatōpi duṣṭatarān anyasaptabhūtān saṅginaḥ karōti|
45 Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation.”
tatastē tat sthānaṁ praviśya nivasanti, tēna tasya manujasya śēṣadaśā pūrvvadaśātōtīvāśubhā bhavati, ētēṣāṁ duṣṭavaṁśyānāmapi tathaiva ghaṭiṣyatē|
46 While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
mānavēbhya ētāsāṁ kathanāṁ kathanakālē tasya mātā sahajāśca tēna sākaṁ kāñcit kathāṁ kathayituṁ vāñchantō bahirēva sthitavantaḥ|
47 One said to him, “Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”
tataḥ kaścit tasmai kathitavān, paśya tava jananī sahajāśca tvayā sākaṁ kāñcana kathāṁ kathayituṁ kāmayamānā bahistiṣṭhanti|
48 But he answered him who spoke to him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”
kintu sa taṁ pratyavadat, mama kā jananī? kē vā mama sahajāḥ?
49 He stretched out his hand toward his disciples, and said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers!
paścāt śiṣyān prati karaṁ prasāryya kathitavān, paśya mama jananī mama sahajāścaitē;
50 For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
yaḥ kaścit mama svargasthasya pituriṣṭaṁ karmma kurutē, saēva mama bhrātā bhaginī jananī ca|
