मार्क 4
1 १ पुन्हा येशू सरोवराच्या किनाऱ्यावर शिक्षण देऊ लागला, तेव्हा त्याच्याजवळ फार मोठा समुदाय जमला, म्हणून तो सरोवरातील एका तारवात जाऊन बसला आणि सर्व लोक सरोवरकिनारी जमिनीवर होते.
AND again he began to teach by the sea side: and a vast multitude was assembled about him, so that he went into a vessel to sit down on the sea, and all the multitude was on the land close by the sea.
And he taught them in parables many things, and said unto them in the course of his teaching,
Hear me! Behold, a sower went out to sow;
and it came to pass as he sowed, some fell by the road side, and the birds of the air came and ate it up.
And some fell on a rocky soil, where it had not much mold, and immediately it sprung up, because it had no depth of earth:
and when the sun arose it was scorched up; and because it had not root, it withered away.
7 ७ काही बी काटेरी झुडपांमध्ये पडले व काटेरी झुडपांनीच वाढून त्याची वाढ खुंटवली, म्हणून त्यास काही पीक आले नाही.
And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and choked it, and it produced no fruit.
8 ८ काही बी चांगल्या जमिनीत पडले ते उगवले, मोठे झाले व त्यास पीक आले; आणि त्याचे तीसपट, साठपट, शंभरपट असे उत्पन्न आले.”
And some fell on good ground, and produced fruit, growing up, and increasing, and yielded one part thirty fold, and another sixty, and another an hundred.
And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
But when they were alone, those who were about him with the twelve, asked him the meaning of the parable.
11 ११ तो त्यांना म्हणाला, “देवाच्या राज्याचे रहस्यदान तुम्हास दिले आहे, परंतु बाहेरच्यांना सर्वकाही दाखल्यांनी सांगण्यात येते.
And he said to them, To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are without, all things are in parables:
12 १२ यासाठी की त्यांनी पाहत असता पाहावे परंतु त्यांना दिसू नये, आणि ऐकत असता त्यांनी ऐकावे, पण समजू नये. नाही तर कदाचित त्यांची माने फिरतील आणि देव त्यांना क्षमा करील.”
That seeing they may see, yet not perceive; and hearing may hear, yet not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven them.
And he saith to them, Know ye not this parable? and how will ye know all parables?
The sower soweth the word.
15 १५ वाटेवर वचन पेरले जाते तेथील लोक हे आहेत की, त्यांनी ऐकल्याबरोबर सैतान येऊन त्यांच्यातले पेरलेले वचन हिरावून घेतो.
Now these are they by the road side; where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan cometh, and taketh away the word sown on their hearts:
and these in like manner are they who were sown on the rocky soil; who when they have heard the word, instantly with joy receive it;
17 १७ तथापि त्यांच्यामध्ये मूळ नसल्याकारणाने ते थोडा काळच टिकाव धरतात; मग वचनामुळे संकट आले किंवा छळ झाला म्हणजे ते लगेच अडखळतात.
and have no root in themselves, but are temporary professors: afterwards, when tribulation cometh or persecution for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.
And those are the sown among the thorns; such as are hearers of the word;
19 १९ परंतु संसाराची चिंता, संपत्तीचा मोह व इतर गोष्टींचा लोभ ही त्यांच्यामध्ये शिरून वचनाची वाढ खुंटवतात आणि ते निष्फळ होते. (aiōn g165)
but the anxious cares of this world, and the seducing nature of wealth, and inordinate desires after other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 २० चांगल्या जमिनीत पेरलेले हे आहेत की, ते वचन ऐकून त्याचा स्वीकार करतात मग कोणी तीसपट, कोणी साठपट, कोणी शंभरपट असे पीक देतात.”
And these are they who are sown on the good ground, such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirty fold, and some sixty, and some an hundred.
21 २१ आणखी येशू त्यास म्हणाला, “दिवा मापाखाली किंवा पलंगाखाली ठेवण्यासाठी आणतात काय? दिवठणीवर ठेवावा म्हणून आणतात ना?
And he said unto them, Is a lamp brought out to be put under a bushel, or under a bed, and not to be placed on a stand?
For there is nothing hid, but that it should be brought to light, nor is any thing concealed, but that it should come into open day.
If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.
24 २४ तो त्यास म्हणाला, “तुम्ही जे काही ऐकता त्याविषयी सावध राहा, ज्या मापाने तुम्ही मापून द्याल त्याच मापाने तुम्हास मापून देण्यात येईल.
And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with the measure ye mete, shall it be measured back to you; and something over shall be given to you that hear.
25 २५ कारण ज्याच्याजवळ आहे त्यास आणखी दिले जाईल व ज्या कोणाजवळ नाही त्याच्यापासून जे आहे तेही काढून घेतले जाईल.”
For to him that hath, there shall more be given to him; but he that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away from him.
And he said, The kingdom of heaven is of that kind, as if a man should cast seed into his field;
and sleep and rise, night and day, and the sown corn should sprout, and grow into length, he knoweth not how:
for the earth, naturally prolific, beareth fruit; first the blade, then the ear, then the full corn in the ear.
But when the grain is ready, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because harvest is come.
30 ३० आणखी तो म्हणाला, “आपण देवाच्या राज्याची तुलना कशासोबत करू शकतो किंवा कोणत्या दाखल्यात ते मांडावे?
And he said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God, and under what parabolic figure shall I represent it?
31 ३१ ते मोहरीच्या दाण्यासारखे आहे. जो जमिनीत पेरतेवेळी पृथ्वीवरील सर्व दाण्यात सर्वात लहान असला तरी,
It is like a grain of mustard, which when it is sown in the earth, is among the least of all the seeds which are upon the earth:
32 ३२ तो पेरल्यावर उगवून सर्व झाडांत मोठा होतो. त्यास मोठ्या फांद्या येतात आणि आकाशातील पाखरे त्याच्यावर घरटी बांधू शकतात.”
but when it is sown, it groweth up and becomes greater than all herbaceous plants, and produceth vast branches; so that the birds of the air may roost under the shadow of it.
And with many such like parables spake he to them the word.
34 ३४ आणि दाखल्यावाचून तो त्यांच्याबरोबर बोलत नसे. परंतु एकांती तो आपल्या शिष्यांना सर्वकाही समजावून सांगत असे.
And without a parable spake he not unto them; but in private he explained them all to his disciples.
And the same day he saith unto them, as the evening shut in, Let us pass over to the other side.
36 ३६ मग त्यांनी लोकसमुदायाला सोडले आणि तो तारवात होता तसेच ते त्यास घेऊन गेले. त्यांच्याबरोबर इतरही दुसरे तारू होते.
And sending the multitude away, they took him just as he was in the vessel; and there were also some other little vessels with him.
And a great hurricane arose, and the waves broke into the vessel, so that it was now full of water:
38 ३८ परंतु येशू मागच्या बाजूस वरामावर उशास घेऊन झोपी गेला होता. ते त्यास जागे करून म्हणाले, “गुरुजी, आपण बुडत आहोत तरी आपणास काळजी वाटत नाही काय?”
and he was in the stern, sleeping on a pillow: and they awoke him, and say unto him, Master, is it no concern to thee that we are perishing?
39 ३९ मग तो उठला आणि त्याने वाऱ्याला धमकावले आणि समुद्राला म्हणाला, “शांत हो! स्तब्ध राहा.” मग वारा थांबला व तेथे मोठी शांतता पसरली.
And rising, he with authority charged the wind, and said to the sea, Silence! be still! And the wind subsided, and there was a great calm.
And he said to them, Why are ye so timorous? How is it that ye have not confidence?
41 ४१ परंतु ते अतिशय घाबरले आणि एकमेकास म्हणाले, “हा आहे तरी कोण, वारा आणि समुद्रदेखील याचे ऐकतात.” असा हा आहे तरी कोण?
And they were filled with the most reverential awe, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
