Matthew 4
1 Etu pichete Jisu ke Atma pora ekta sunsan jagate loi jaise juntu jagate saitan pora taike porikha koribo.
Then Jesus was led by the Spirit {[God’s] Spirit led Jesus} into a desolate area to be tempted by the devil {in order that the devil would tempt him}.
2 Aru chalis din aru chalis rati Jisu upwas korise, etu karone Tai bhuk lagi jaise.
After he did not eat food for 40 days, and 40 nights. he was hungry.
3 Titia porikha kora jon ahikena Taike eneka koise, “Apuni Isor laga Putro ase koile, etu pathor khan ke roti hobole kobi.”
[Satan], the tempter, came to him and said, “Because you [claim that you have a relationship with] God [as] a son [has with his father] [MET], [prove it] by commanding these stones to become bread [so that you can eat them]!”
4 Kintu Jisu taike jowab dikena koise, “Isor kotha te eneka likhi kene ase, ‘Manu to khali bhaat khaikena jinda nathake, kintu Isor laga mukh pora ula kotha te he jinda thakibo.’”
But Jesus said [to him], “[No! I will not change stones into bread, because] it is written [in the Scriptures] {in the Scriptures [Moses] wrote}, [‘Eating] food [SYN] [sustains] people [physically, but] it does not sustain them [spiritually] [SYN]. Instead, [paying attention to] everything that God has spoken [to them is what sustains people spiritually].’”
5 Etu pichete saitan pora Jisu ke pobitro sheher te loi jaise aru mondoli laga sob pora uporte khara koribo dise,
Then the devil took Jesus to [Jerusalem], the city that is dedicated to God. He set him on the highest part of the Temple,
6 aru Taike koise, “Apuni Isor laga Putro ase koile, yate pora nijorke nichete phelai dibi, kele koile Isor laga kotha te eneka likha ase, ‘Tai pora Tai laga duth khan ke hukum dikene Apuni ke bachai lobo,’ Aru, ‘Taikhan laga hath pora Apuni ke dhuri lobo, Aru Apuni laga theng ke pathor pora bhi jokhom nahobo.’”
and said to him, “Because you [claim that you have a relationship with] God [as] a son [has with his father, prove it by] jumping down [to the ground. You will not be hurt], because it is written [in the Scriptures], [‘God] will command his angels to protect you. They will lift you up in their hands [when you are falling], in order that [you will not get hurt]. You will not [even] strike your foot on a stone.’”
7 Jisu taike eneka koise, “Aru Isor kotha te etu bhi likhi kene ase, ‘Apuni laga Probhu Isor ke porikha na koribi.’”
But Jesus said, “[No! I] will not [jump down, because] in another place [in the Scriptures] it is written {there are these words that [Moses] wrote}: ‘Do not [try to] test the Lord your God [to see if he will prevent something bad from happening to you when you do something foolish!]’”
8 Aru, saitan pora Jisu ke untcha pahar te loi jaise aru Taike prithibi laga rajyokhan laga dangor mohima thaka dikhai dise.
Then the devil took him on [top of] a very high mountain. There he showed him all the nations in the world and the magnificent things in those nations.
9 Saitan pora Taike koise, “Apuni moike athukari kene aradhana korile, eitu khan sob ami Apnike di dibo.”
And then he said to him, “I will [let you rule all these nations and] give you the magnificent things in them if you bow down and worship me.”
10 Titia Jisu pora taike koise, “Yate pora jai jabi, Saitan! Kilekoile Shastro te eneka likhi kene ase, ‘Tumikhan khali Probhu, tumi laga Isor ke he aradhana koribi, aru khali Taike he sewa koribi.’”
But Jesus said to him, “[No, I will not worship you], Satan, [so] go away! It is written in the Scriptures, ‘It is the Lord your God whom you [(pl)] must worship, and you [(pl)] must serve only him!’”
11 Titia saitan Taike chari kene jai jaise, aru sabi, sorgodoth khan ahi kene Taike modot korise.
Then the devil went away, and right away, angels came to Jesus and took care of him.
12 Jitia John ke dhurise koi kene Jisu khobor paise, Tai Galilee jagate wapas jai jaise.
[While] Jesus [was in Judea, John the Baptizer’s disciples] told him that John had been put in prison and kept there {that [Herod Antipas] had put John [the Baptizer] in prison [and kept him there]}. [So] Jesus returned to Galilee [District]. While he was in Galilee, he first went to Nazareth [town].
13 Tai Nazareth sheher chari kene Galilee Samundar laga usorte thaka, Capernaum town te jaise, etu jaga to Zebulun aru Naphtali laga majot te ase.
Then he left Nazareth and went to Capernaum [city in order to live there. Capernaum is located beside Galilee Lake in the region which was formerly] the regions of [the tribes of] Zebulun and Naphtali.
14 Isaiah bhabobadi dwara Isor kotha pora kowa pura hobole karone eitu khan sob eneka hoise,
[One reason that he went there] was so that [these words] that were written by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled {so that he might fulfill these words that the prophet Isaiah wrote}:
15 “Zebulun laga mati aru Naphtali laga mati, Sagar phale, Jordan paar kori kene, Porjati khan laga Galilee!
“Zebulun region and Naphtali region [are on] the road [which is] near Galilee [Lake and] on the eastern side of the Jordan [River. They are] the regions in Galilee [District where many] non-Jews [are living].
16 Utu manu khan jun andhera te bohi thake taikhan dangor ekta ujala dikhise, Aru jun khan mora laga chaya aru jagate bohi thake, Taikhan uporte ekta pohor dikhai dise.”
[Although the people there will be like] people who sit in a dark place [MET], [they will suddenly perceive clearly a new teaching, as] people who have seen a big light shining on them [MET] perceive everything clearly. [The] people who are located in a dangerous [MET] region [will suddenly perceive clearly what God teaches], as people on whom a light shines perceive things clearly [MET, DOU].
17 Utu somoi pora he Jisu prochar kori bole shuru hoise aru koise, “Mon ghura bhi, kele koile sorgo laga rajyo to usor hoise.”
From that time, [while] Jesus was [in Capernaum city, he began to preach this to people: “God [MTY/EUP] will very soon begin to rule, and he will judge you when he rules]. So you [(pl)] need to turn from your sinful ways [so that God will not punish you].”
18 Jitia Tai Galilee Nodi phale berai thakisele, Tai Simon junke Peter koi, aru tai laga bhai Andrew khan ke maas dhora jaal loi kene samundar te phelai thaka dikhise, kele koile taikhan maas dhora manu thakise.
[One day] while Jesus was walking by Galilee Lake, he saw two men, Simon, who was [later] called Peter, and Andrew, his [younger] brother. They were casting their [fishing] net into the lake because they [earned money by] catching [and selling] fish.
19 Jisu taikhan ke koise, “Ahibi, Ami laga piche koribi, aru Moi tumikhan ke manu dhori bole bonai dibo.”
He said to them, “[Just like you have been] gathering fish, come with me and I will teach you how to gather people [to become my disciples].” [MET]
20 Loge-loge taikhan laga maas dhura jaal khan phelai dise aru Jisu laga piche kori bole shuru hoise.
They immediately left [the work that they were doing with] their [fishing] nets, and they went with him.
21 Jitia Jisu ta te pora jai thakise, tai duijon bhai ke dikhise, James, Zebedee laga chokra, aru tai laga bhai John Tai ekta naw te taikhan laga baba Zebedee logote maas dhura jaal khan milai thakise. Jisu taikhan ke matise,
As [the three of them] walked on from there, Jesus saw two other men, James, and John, the [younger] brother of James. [They were] in their boat with Zebedee, their father, mending their [fishing] nets. Jesus told them that [they should leave their work and] go with him.
22 Aru etu loge-loge taikhan laga naw aru baba ke chari kene Jisu laga piche korise.
They immediately left their fishing boat and their father, and they went with Jesus.
23 Titia Jisu Galilee laga sob jagate berai jaise, synagogue khan te sikhaise, aru rajyo laga susamachar prochar korise, aru sob kisim laga ghao bemar aru bemar manu khan ke changai korise.
Jesus went [with those four men] throughout all of Galilee [District]. He was teaching [the people] in the buildings where we Jews worship God. He was preaching the good message that tells how to become members of the group of people whose lives God rules over. He was also healing all [the Galileans] who had diseases or who were sick.
24 Tai laga khobor sob Syria jagate punchi jaise, aru manu khan Jisu usorte kisim-kisim bemar pora dukh pai thaka khan, gaw bhitor te bhoot huma khan, murgi-bemar thaka khan, aru jothor bemar thaka khan sobke loi kene anise. Aru taikhan ke Jisu pora changai kori dise.
When people who lived in other parts of Syria [District] heard [PRS] what he was doing, they brought to him people who suffered from illnesses, people who suffered from many kinds of diseases, people who [suffered from] severe pains, people who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled}, people who were epileptics, and people who were paralyzed. And Jesus healed them all.
25 Aru Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, aru Jordan pora bhi dur thaka sob jaga pora manu khan Jisu logot ahise.
Then crowds started to go with him. [They were people from] Galilee [District], (from the Decapolis/from the Ten Towns [area]), from Jerusalem [city], from other [parts of] Judea [district], and from areas east of the Jordan [River].
