मरकुस 4
1 १ यीशु फिर झील के किनारे उपदेश देने लगा: और ऐसी बड़ी भीड़ उसके पास इकट्ठी हो गई, कि वह झील में एक नाव पर चढ़कर बैठ गया, और सारी भीड़ भूमि पर झील के किनारे खड़ी रही।
Once again He began to teach beside the sea. And a large crowd was gathered to Him, so that He got into the boat and sat down, out on the water, while the whole crowd was on the land, at the water's edge.
Then He began teaching them many things by parables and said to them in His teaching:
“Listen! Yes, a sower went out to sow.
And it happened, as he sowed, that some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.
5 ५ और कुछ पत्थरीली भूमि पर गिरा जहाँ उसको बहुत मिट्टी न मिली, और नरम मिट्टी मिलने के कारण जल्द उग आया।
Some fell on the rocky area where it did not have much soil, and it sprang up quickly because it had no depth of soil.
But upon the sun's rising it was scorched, and because it had no root it was withered up.
And some fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and smothered it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 ८ परन्तु कुछ अच्छी भूमि पर गिरा; और वह उगा, और बढ़कर फलवन्त हुआ; और कोई तीस गुणा, कोई साठ गुणा और कोई सौ गुणा फल लाया।”
And some fell into the good ground, and coming up and growing it started to produce fruit—yielding thirty times as much, sixty times as much, even a hundred times as much.”
Then He said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
But when He was alone, those who were around Him, with the twelve, asked Him about the parable.
11 ११ उसने उनसे कहा, “तुम को तो परमेश्वर के राज्य के भेद की समझ दी गई है, परन्तु बाहरवालों के लिये सब बातें दृष्टान्तों में होती हैं।
So He said to them: “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the Kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, everything is being given in parables,
12 १२ इसलिए कि वे देखते हुए देखें और उन्हें दिखाई न पड़े और सुनते हुए सुनें भी और न समझें; ऐसा न हो कि वे फिरें, और क्षमा किए जाएँ।”
so that: ‘Seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; so that they should not return and their sins be forgiven them.’”
13 १३ फिर उसने उनसे कहा, “क्या तुम यह दृष्टान्त नहीं समझते? तो फिर और सब दृष्टान्तों को कैसे समझोगे?
Then He said to them: “Don't you understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables?
The sower sows the Word.
15 १५ जो मार्ग के किनारे के हैं जहाँ वचन बोया जाता है, ये वे हैं, कि जब उन्होंने सुना, तो शैतान तुरन्त आकर वचन को जो उनमें बोया गया था, उठा ले जाता है।
These are the ones where the Word is sown along the path: as soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the Word that was sown in their hearts.
16 १६ और वैसे ही जो पत्थरीली भूमि पर बोए जाते हैं, ये वे हैं, कि जो वचन को सुनकर तुरन्त आनन्द से ग्रहण कर लेते हैं।
Similarly, these are the ones sown on the rocky area: as soon as they hear the Word they receive it with joy,
17 १७ परन्तु अपने भीतर जड़ न रखने के कारण वे थोड़े ही दिनों के लिये रहते हैं; इसके बाद जब वचन के कारण उन पर क्लेश या उपद्रव होता है, तो वे तुरन्त ठोकर खाते हैं।
but since they have no root in themselves they are temporary—when oppression or persecution comes because of the Word, they quickly fall away.
And these are the ones sown among the thorns: they hear the Word,
19 १९ और संसार की चिन्ता, और धन का धोखा, और वस्तुओं का लोभ उनमें समाकर वचन को दबा देता है और वह निष्फल रह जाता है। (aiōn g165)
but the worries of this age, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the undue desires for other things come in and smother the Word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 २० और जो अच्छी भूमि में बोए गए, ये वे हैं, जो वचन सुनकर ग्रहण करते और फल लाते हैं, कोई तीस गुणा, कोई साठ गुणा, और कोई सौ गुणा।”
And these are the ones sown on the good ground: such people hear the Word, welcome it and produce fruit—thirty times as much, sixty times as much, even a hundred times as much.”
21 २१ और उसने उनसे कहा, “क्या दीये को इसलिए लाते हैं कि पैमाने या खाट के नीचे रखा जाए? क्या इसलिए नहीं, कि दीवट पर रखा जाए?
Also He said to them: “The lamp is not brought to be put under a box or under a bed, is it? Is it not to be placed on its stand?
22 २२ क्योंकि कोई वस्तु छिपी नहीं, परन्तु इसलिए कि प्रगट हो जाए; और न कुछ गुप्त है, पर इसलिए कि प्रगट हो जाए।
For there is no ‘hidden’ that may not be exposed, nor has anything been concealed but that it should come to light.
If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!”
24 २४ फिर उसने उनसे कहा, “चौकस रहो, कि क्या सुनते हो? जिस नाप से तुम नापते हो उसी से तुम्हारे लिये भी नापा जाएगा, और तुम को अधिक दिया जाएगा।
Then He said to them: “Pay attention to what you hear. With the same measure you use it will be measured to you in return; and to you who hear, more will be added.
25 २५ क्योंकि जिसके पास है, उसको दिया जाएगा; परन्तु जिसके पास नहीं है उससे वह भी जो उसके पास है; ले लिया जाएगा।”
Because whoever has, to him more will be given; whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”
He also said: “The Kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter the seed on the ground
and should sleep and get up night and day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how.
All by itself the earth produces fruit: first a shoot, then a head of grain, then full grain in the head.
But as soon as the grain is ready, he sends in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
Again He said: “To what shall we compare the Kingdom of God, or with what sort of parable should we illustrate it?
It is like a mustard seed, that when it is sown on the ground is the smallest of all such seeds,
32 ३२ परन्तु जब बोया गया, तो उगकर सब साग-पात से बड़ा हो जाता है, और उसकी ऐसी बड़ी डालियाँ निकलती हैं, कि आकाश के पक्षी उसकी छाया में बसेरा कर सकते हैं।”
yet when it is sown, it grows up and becomes larger than all the garden herbs and produces big branches, so that the birds of the air are able to rest in its shade.”
It was with many such parables that He was speaking the word to them, as they were able to hear it.
34 ३४ और बिना दृष्टान्त कहे उनसे कुछ भी नहीं कहता था; परन्तु एकान्त में वह अपने निज चेलों को सब बातों का अर्थ बताता था।
But apart from a parable He did not speak to them; privately, however, He would explain everything to His disciples.
On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.”
Since He was already in the boat, they took off with Him, leaving the crowd behind (other little boats were also with Him).
Well a strong cyclonic wind came up, such that the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling up.
38 ३८ और वह आप पिछले भाग में गद्दी पर सो रहा था; तब उन्होंने उसे जगाकर उससे कहा, “हे गुरु, क्या तुझे चिन्ता नहीं, कि हम नाश हुए जाते हैं?”
But He was on the poop deck, sleeping on the cushion; so they awakened Him and said to Him, “Teacher, don't you care that we are perishing?”
39 ३९ तब उसने उठकर आँधी को डाँटा, और पानी से कहा, “शान्त रह, थम जा!” और आँधी थम गई और बड़ा चैन हो गया।
Then, having been awakened, He rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Shut up; be muzzled!” So the wind stopped and there was a complete calm.
And He said to them: “Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?”
They were terrified and started saying to one another, “Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!?”
