यूहन्ना 4
1 १ फिर जब प्रभु को मालूम हुआ कि फरीसियों ने सुना है कि यीशु यूहन्ना से अधिक चेले बनाता और उन्हें बपतिस्मा देता है।
Now as soon as the Master was aware that the Pharisees had heard it said, "Jesus is gaining and baptizing more disciples than John"--
though Jesus Himself did not baptize them, but His disciples did--
He left Judaea and returned to Galilee.
His road lay through Samaria,
5 ५ इसलिए वह सूखार नामक सामरिया के एक नगर तक आया, जो उस भूमि के पास है जिसे याकूब ने अपने पुत्र यूसुफ को दिया था।
and so He came to Sychar, a town in Samaria near the piece of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 ६ और याकूब का कुआँ भी वहीं था। यीशु मार्ग का थका हुआ उस कुएँ पर ऐसे ही बैठ गया। और यह बात दोपहर के समय हुई।
Jacob's Well was there: and accordingly Jesus, tired out with His journey, sat down by the well to rest. It was about six o'clock in the evening.
Presently there came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus asked her to give Him some water;
for His disciples were gone to the town to buy provisions.
9 ९ उस सामरी स्त्री ने उससे कहा, “तू यहूदी होकर मुझ सामरी स्त्री से पानी क्यों माँगता है?” क्योंकि यहूदी सामरियों के साथ किसी प्रकार का व्यवहार नहीं रखते।
"How is it," replied the woman, "that a Jew like you asks me, who am a woman and a Samaritan, for water?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
10 १० यीशु ने उत्तर दिया, “यदि तू परमेश्वर के वरदान को जानती, और यह भी जानती कि वह कौन है जो तुझ से कहता है, ‘मुझे पानी पिला,’ तो तू उससे माँगती, और वह तुझेजीवन का जलदेता।”
"If you had known God's free gift," replied Jesus, "and who it is that said to you, 'Give me some water,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water."
11 ११ स्त्री ने उससे कहा, “हे स्वामी, तेरे पास जल भरने को तो कुछ है भी नहीं, और कुआँ गहरा है; तो फिर वह जीवन का जल तेरे पास कहाँ से आया?
"Sir," she said, "you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep; so where can you get the living water from?
12 १२ क्या तू हमारे पिता याकूब से बड़ा है, जिसने हमें यह कुआँ दिया; और आप ही अपनी सन्तान, और अपने पशुओं समेत उसमें से पीया?”
Are you greater than our forefather Jacob, who gave us the well, and himself drank from it, as did also his sons and his cattle?"
"Every one," replied Jesus, "who drinks any of this water will be thirsty again;
15 १५ स्त्री ने उससे कहा, “हे प्रभु, वह जल मुझे दे ताकि मैं प्यासी न होऊँ और न जल भरने को इतनी दूर आऊँ।”
"Sir," said the woman, "give me that water, that I may never be thirsty, nor continually come all the way here to draw from the well."
"Go and call your husband," said Jesus; "and come back."
17 १७ स्त्री ने उत्तर दिया, “मैं बिना पति की हूँ।” यीशु ने उससे कहा, “तू ठीक कहती है, ‘मैं बिना पति की हूँ।’
"I have no husband," she replied. "You rightly say that you have no husband," said Jesus;
18 १८ क्योंकि तू पाँच पति कर चुकी है, और जिसके पास तू अब है वह भी तेरा पति नहीं; यह तूने सच कहा है।”
"for you have had five husbands, and the man you have at present is not your husband. You have spoken the truth in saying that."
"Sir," replied the woman, "I see that you are a Prophet.
20 २० हमारे पूर्वजों ने इसी पहाड़ पर भजन किया, और तुम कहते हो कि वह जगह जहाँ भजन करना चाहिए यरूशलेम में है।”
Our forefathers worshipped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem."
21 २१ यीशु ने उससे कहा, “हे नारी, मेरी बात का विश्वास कर कि वह समय आता है कि तुम न तो इस पहाड़ पर पिता का भजन करोगे, न यरूशलेम में।
"Believe me," said Jesus, "the time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22 २२ तुम जिसे नहीं जानते, उसका भजन करते हो; और हम जिसे जानते हैं, उसका भजन करते हैं; क्योंकि उद्धार यहूदियों में से है।
You worship One of whom you know nothing. We worship One whom we know; for salvation comes from the Jews.
23 २३ परन्तु वह समय आता है, वरन् अब भी है, जिसमें सच्चे भक्त पिता परमेश्वर की आराधना आत्मा और सच्चाई से करेंगे, क्योंकि पिता अपने लिये ऐसे ही आराधकों को ढूँढ़ता है।
But a time is coming--nay, has already come--when the true worshippers will worship the Father with true spiritual worship; for indeed the Father desires such worshippers.
God is Spirit; and those who worship Him must bring Him true spiritual worship."
25 २५ स्त्री ने उससे कहा, “मैं जानती हूँ कि मसीह जो ख्रिस्त कहलाता है, आनेवाला है; जब वह आएगा, तो हमें सब बातें बता देगा।”
"I know," replied the woman, "that Messiah is coming--'the Christ,' as He is called. When He has come, He will tell us everything."
"I am He," said Jesus--"I who am now talking to you."
27 २७ इतने में उसके चेले आ गए, और अचम्भा करने लगे कि वह स्त्री से बातें कर रहा है; फिर भी किसी ने न पूछा, “तू क्या चाहता है?” या “किस लिये उससे बातें करता है?”
Just then His disciples came, and were surprised to find Him talking with a woman. Yet not one of them asked Him, "What is your wish?" or "Why are you talking with her?"
The woman however, leaving her pitcher, went away to the town, and called the people.
"Come," she said, "and see a man who has told me everything I have ever done. Can this be the Christ, do you think?"
They left the town and set out to go to Him.
Meanwhile the disciples were urging Jesus. "Rabbi," they said, "eat something."
"I have food to eat," He replied, "of which you do not know."
So the disciples began questioning one another. "Can it be," they said, "that some one has brought Him something to eat?"
34 ३४ यीशु ने उनसे कहा, “मेरा भोजन यह है, कि अपने भेजनेवाले की इच्छा के अनुसार चलूँ और उसका काम पूरा करूँ।
"My food," said Jesus, "is to be obedient to Him who sent me, and fully to accomplish His work.
35 ३५ क्या तुम नहीं कहते, ‘कटनी होने में अब भी चार महीने पड़े हैं?’ देखो, मैं तुम से कहता हूँ, अपनी आँखें उठाकर खेतों पर दृष्टि डालो, कि वे कटनी के लिये पक चुके हैं।
Do you not say, 'It wants four months yet to the harvest'? But look round, I tell you, and observe these plains-- they are already ripe for the sickle.
36 ३६ और काटनेवाला मजदूरी पाता, और अनन्त जीवन के लिये फल बटोरता है, ताकि बोनेवाला और काटनेवाला दोनों मिलकर आनन्द करें। (aiōnios g166)
The reaper gets pay and gathers in a crop in preparation for the Life of the Ages, that so the sower and the reapers may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
For it is in this that you see the real meaning of the saying, 'The sower is one person, and the reaper is another.'
38 ३८ मैंने तुम्हें वह खेत काटने के लिये भेजा जिसमें तुम ने परिश्रम नहीं किया औरों ने परिश्रम किया और तुम उनके परिश्रम के फल में भागी हुए।”
I sent you to reap a harvest which is not the result of your own labours. Others have laboured, and you are getting benefit from their labours."
39 ३९ और उस नगर के बहुत से सामरियों ने उस स्त्री के कहने से यीशु पर विश्वास किया; जिसने यह गवाही दी थी, कि उसने सब कुछ जो मैंने किया है, मुझे बता दिया।
Of the Samaritan population of that town a good many believed in Him because of the woman's statement when she declared, "He has told me all that I have ever done."
40 ४० तब जब ये सामरी उसके पास आए, तो उससे विनती करने लगे कि हमारे यहाँ रह, और वह वहाँ दो दिन तक रहा।
When however the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him on all sides to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.
Then a far larger number of people believed because of His own words,
42 ४२ और उस स्त्री से कहा, “अब हम तेरे कहने ही से विश्वास नहीं करते; क्योंकि हमने आप ही सुन लिया, और जानते हैं कि यही सचमुच में जगत का उद्धारकर्ता है।”
and they said to the woman, "We no longer believe in Him simply because of your statements; for we have now heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Saviour of the world."
After the two days He departed, and went into Galilee;
though Jesus Himself declared that a Prophet has no honour in his own country.
45 ४५ जब वह गलील में आया, तो गलीली आनन्द के साथ उससे मिले; क्योंकि जितने काम उसने यरूशलेम में पर्व के समय किए थे, उन्होंने उन सब को देखा था, क्योंकि वे भी पर्व में गए थे।
When however He reached Galilee, the Galilaeans welcomed Him eagerly, having been eye-witnesses of all that He had done in Jerusalem at the Festival; for they also had been to the Festival.
46 ४६ तब वह फिर गलील के काना में आया, जहाँ उसने पानी को दाखरस बनाया था। वहाँ राजा का एक कर्मचारी था जिसका पुत्र कफरनहूम में बीमार था।
So He came once more to Cana in Galilee, where He had made the water into wine. Now there was a certain officer of the King's court whose son was ill at Capernaum.
47 ४७ वह यह सुनकर कि यीशु यहूदिया से गलील में आ गया है, उसके पास गया और उससे विनती करने लगा कि चलकर मेरे पुत्र को चंगा कर दे: क्योंकि वह मरने पर था।
Having heard that Jesus had come from Judaea to Galilee, he came to Him and begged Him to go down and cure his son; for he was at the point of death.
"Unless you and others see miracles and marvels," said Jesus, "nothing will induce you to believe."
"Sir," pleaded the officer, "come down before my child dies."
50 ५० यीशु ने उससे कहा, “जा, तेरा पुत्र जीवित है।” उस मनुष्य ने यीशु की कही हुई बात पर विश्वास किया और चला गया।
"You may return home," replied Jesus; "your son has recovered." He believed the words of Jesus, and started back home;
and he was already on his way down when his servants met him and told him that his son was alive and well.
52 ५२ उसने उनसे पूछा, “किस घड़ी वह अच्छा होने लगा?” उन्होंने उससे कहा, “कल सातवें घण्टे में उसका ज्वर उतर गया।”
So he inquired of them at what hour he had shown improvement. "Yesterday, about seven o'clock," they replied, "the fever left him."
53 ५३ तब पिता जान गया कि यह उसी घड़ी हुआ जिस घड़ी यीशु ने उससे कहा, “तेरा पुत्र जीवित है,” और उसने और उसके सारे घराने ने विश्वास किया।
Then the father recollected that that was the time at which Jesus had said to him, "Your son has recovered," and he and his whole household became believers.
This is the second miracle that Jesus performed, after coming from Judaea into Galilee.
