1 जब पेन्तिकोसको दिन आयो, तिनीहरू सबै जना एकै ठाउँमा थिए ।
And when the day of Pentecost was now come, they were all together in one place.
2 एक्‍कासि स्वर्गबाट जोडसँग शक्तिशाली हावाको झोक्‍का जस्तै आवाज आयो र तिनीहरू बसिरहेको पुरै घर भरियो ।
And suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3 आगोका जिब्राहरू जस्ता तिनीहरूकहाँ देखा परे र भागभाग भएर तिनीहरू हरेकमाथि बसे ।
And there appeared unto them tongues parting asunder, like as of fire; and it sat upon each one of them.
4 तिनीहरू सबै जना पवित्र आत्माले भरिए र आत्माले तिनीहरूलाई दिनुभएअनुसार अरू भाषाहरूमा बोल्न थाले ।
And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5 यरूशलेममा स्वर्गमुनि भएका हरेक जातिबाट आएका ईश्‍वरभक्त यहूदीहरू बसिरहेका थिए ।
Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
6 जब यो आवाज सुनियो मानिसहरूका भिड एकसाथ आए र अन्योलमा परे किनभने हरेकले तिनीहरू तिनीहरूका आफ्नै भाषामा बोलिरहेका सुने ।
And when this sound was heard, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speaking in his own language.
7 तिनीहरू छक्‍क र चकित भए र तिनीहरूले भने, “साँच्‍चै, के यी बोलिरहनेहरू गालीलीहरू होइनन्?
And they were all amazed and marveled, saying, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
8 त्यसो भए किन तिनीहरूले हाम्रो आफ्नै भाषाहरूमा नै बोलिरहेका हामी हरेकले सुनिरहेका छौँ?
And how hear we, every man in our own language, wherein we were born?
9 पार्थीहरू र मादीहरू र एलामीहरू र मेसोपोटामिया, यहूदिया र कापाडोकिया, पोन्टस र एसिया
Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, in Judaea and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Asia,
10 फ्रिगिया र पाम्फिलिया, मिश्र र कुरेनी नजिकका लिबियाका भागहरूका बासिन्दाहरू, र रोमका आगन्तुकहरू,
in Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and sojourners from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
11 यहूदीहरू र यहूदी मत मान्‍नेहरू, क्रेट निवासी र अरबीहरू छौँ । तिनीहरूले परमेश्‍वरका महान् कामहरूका बारेमा हाम्रै भाषामा बताइरहेका हामीले सुन्दैछौँ ।”
Cretans and Arabians, we do hear them speaking in our tongues the mighty works of God.
12 तिनीहरू सबै जना चकित र जिल्ल परेर तिनीहरूले एकअर्कालाई भने, “यसको तात्पर्य के हो?”
And they were all amazed, and were perplexed, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
13 तर अरूले चाहिँ गिज्याए र भने, “तिनीहरू नयाँ मद्यले टन्‍न भएका छन् ।”
But others mocking said, They are filled with new wine.
14 तर पत्रुस एघार जनासँगै खडा भएर उच्‍च स्वरले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “यहूदिया र यरूशलेममा बस्‍ने सबै मानिसहरू हो, यो कुरा तपाईंहरूलाई थाहा होस्; मेरो कुरा ध्यान दिएर सुन्‍नुहोस् ।
But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and spake forth unto them, [saying], Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and give ear unto my words.
15 किनभने तपाईंहरूले ठान्‍नुभएजस्तो यी मानिसहरू मातेका छैनन्, कारण अहिले दिनको तेस्रो प्रहर मात्र भएको छ ।
For these are not drunken, as ye suppose; seeing it is [but] the third hour of the day;
16 तर अगमवक्‍ता योएलद्वारा यो कुरा बोलिएको छः
but this is that which hath been spoken by the prophet Joel;
17 ‘परमेश्‍वर भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “अन्त्यका दिनहरूमा यस्तो हुनेछ, म मेरो आत्मा सबै मानिसहरूमाथि खन्याउनेछु, तिमीहरूका छोराहरू र छोरीहरूले अगमवाणी बोल्नेछन्, र तिमीहरूका वृद्ध मानिसहरूले सपनाहरू देख्‍नेछन् ।
And it shall be in the last days, saith God, I will pour forth of my Spirit upon all flesh: And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, And your young men shall see visions, And your old men shall dream dreams:
18 ती दिनहरूमा मेरा दास र दासीहरूमाथि म मेरो आत्मा खन्याउनेछु र तिनीहरूले अगमवाणी बोल्नेछन् ।
Yea and on my servants and on my handmaidens in those days Will I pour forth of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy.
19 म माथि स्वर्गमा अचम्मका कुराहरू र तल पृथ्वीमा रगत, आगो, र धुवाँको मुस्लोका चिन्हहरू देखाउनेछु ।
And I will shew wonders in the heaven above, And signs on the earth beneath; Blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
20 परमप्रभुको महान् र असाधारण दिन आउनअगि सूर्य अँध्यारोमा र चन्द्रमा रगतमा परिणत हुनेछ ।
The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the day of the Lord come, That great and notable [day]:
21 यस्तो हुनेछ कि परमेश्‍वरको नाउँ पुकार्ने हरेकले उद्धार पाउनेछ ।
And it shall be, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
22 हे इस्राएलका मानिसहरू हो, यी वचनहरू सुन्‍नुहोस्: परमेश्‍वरले तपाईंहरूका बिचमा उहाँद्वारा गर्नु भएका शक्तिशाली कामहरू, आश्‍चर्यकर्महरू र चिन्हहरूद्वारा परमेश्‍वरले तपाईंहरूकहाँ साँचो प्रमाणित गर्नुभएका मानिस नासरतका येशू नै हुनुहुन्छ भन्‍ने कुरा तपाईंहरूलाई थाहै छ ।
Ye men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God unto you by mighty works and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, even as ye yourselves know;
23 परमेश्‍वरको अठोट गरिएको योजना र पूर्वज्ञानले गर्दा, उहाँ सुम्पिइनुभयो, र तपाईं अधर्मी मानिसहरूको हातद्वारा क्रुसमा टाँगिनुभयो र मारिनुभयो ।
him, being delivered up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye by the hand of lawless men did crucify and slay:
24 उहाँलाई मृत्युका पीडाहरूबाट छुटाएर परमेश्‍वरले उहाँलाई जीवित पार्नुभयो किनभने उहाँ यसको अधीनमा रहिरहन सम्भव थिएन ।
whom God raised up, having loosed the pangs of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
25 किनभने दाऊदले उहाँको बारेमा भनेकाछन्, ‘परमप्रभुलाई मैले सधैँ मेरो मुहार अगाडि देखेँ । उहाँ मेरो दाहिने हात नजिक हुनुहुन्छ, यसकारण म नडगमगाउनु पर्दैन ।
For David saith concerning him, I beheld the Lord always before my face; For he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:
26 यसकारण मेरो हृदय आनन्दित थियो र मेरो जिब्रोले आनन्द मनायो । मेरो शरीरले पनि दृढतामा वास गर्नेछ ।
Therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced; Moreover my flesh also shall dwell in hope:
27 किनभने तपाईंले मेरो प्राणलाई पातालमा त्याग्‍नुहुनेछैन न त तपाईंले तपाईंका पवित्रजनलाई कुहिन दिनुहुनेछ । (Hadēs g86)
Because thou wilt not leave my soul in Hades, Neither wilt thou give thy Holy One to see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
28 तपाईंले मलाई जीवनका मार्गहरू प्रकट गर्नुभयो । तपाईंले आफ्नो मुहारले मलाई खुसीले भरिपूर्ण बनाउनुहुनेछ ।
Thou madest known unto me the ways of life; Thou shalt make me full of gladness with thy countenance.
29 हे दाजुभाइहरू हो, म हाम्रा पुर्खा दाऊदका बारेमा दृढतासाथ बोल्न सक्छु: तिनी मरे र गाडिए र तिनको चिहान आजको दिनसम्म हामीसँग छ ।
Brethren, I may say unto you freely of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us unto this day.
30 यसकारण तिनी एक अगमवक्‍ता थिए र परमेश्‍वरले तिनकै सन्तानहरूमध्येबाटै एक जनालाई तिनको सिंहसानमा बसाल्नुहुने थियो भनी उहाँले तिनीसँग शपथ खानुभएको कुरा तिनलाई थाहा थियो ।
Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins he would set [one] upon his throne;
31 तिनले यो कुरा पहिला नै देखे र ख्रीष्‍टको पुनरुथानको बारेमा यसरी बताए, ‘उहाँ नत पातालमा त्यागिनु भयो नत उहाँको शरीर नै कुहियो ।’ (Hadēs g86)
he foreseeing [this] spake of the resurrection of the Christ, that neither was he left in Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
32 यी नै येशूलाई परमेश्‍वरले जीवित पार्नुभयो जसको हामी सबै जना साक्षी छौँ ।
This Jesus did God raise up, whereof we all are witnesses.
33 यसकारण उहाँ परमेश्‍वरको दाहिने हातपट्टि उठाइनुभयो र पिताबाट प्रतिज्ञा गरिएको पवित्र आत्मा पाएर, उहाँले यो खन्याउनुभएको छ जुन तपाईंहरू सुन्‍नु र देन्‍नु हुन्छ ।
Being therefore by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath poured forth this, which ye see and hear.
34 दाऊद आफैँ स्वर्ग चढेनन् तर तिनी भन्‍छन्, ‘परमप्रभुले मेरा प्रभुलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “मेरो दाहिने हातपट्टि बस,
For David ascended not into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
35 जबसम्म म तिम्रा शत्रुहरूलाई तिम्रो पाउदान बनाउँदिन ।”’
Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet.
36 यसकारण इस्राएलका सबै घरानाले यो निश्‍चयसाथ जानून कि यही येशू जसलाई तपाईंहरूले क्रुसमा टाँग्‍नुभयो, परमेश्‍वरले उहाँलाई प्रभु र ख्रीष्‍ट दुवै बनाउनु भयो ।
Let all the house of Israel therefore know assuredly, that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified.
37 जब तिनीहरूले यो सुने, तिनीहरूको हृदय छिया-छिया भयो र तिनीहरूले पत्रुस र अरू बाँकी प्रेरितहरूलाई भने, “भाइहरू हो, हामी के गरौँ?”
Now when they heard [this], they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do?
38 अनि पत्रुसले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “पश्‍चात्ताप गर र तिमीहरू हरेकले तिमीहरूका पाप क्षमाको निम्ति येशू ख्रीष्‍टको नाउँमा बप्‍तिस्मा लेओ र तिमीहरूले पवित्र आत्माको वरदान प्राप्‍त गर्नेछौ ।
And Peter [said] unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
39 यो प्रतिज्ञा तिमीहरूका लागि, तिमीहरूका सन्तानहरूका लागि र टाढा-टाढा भएका सबैका लागि, र परमेश्‍वरले बोलाउनुहुने सबै मानिसहरूका लागि हो ।”
For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.
40 अरू धेरै वचनहरूद्वारा तिनले गवाही दिए र तिनीहरूलाई आग्रह गरे । तिनले भने, “यो दुष्‍ट पुस्ताबाट तिमीहरूले आफैँलाई बचाओ ।”
And with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this crooked generation.
41 तब तिनीहरूले तिनको वचन ग्रहण गरे र बप्‍तिस्मा लिए र झन्डै तिन हजार प्राणहरू त्यस दिन थपिए ।
They then that received his word were baptized: and there were added [unto them] in that day about three thousand souls.
42 तिनीहरू प्रेरितहरूको शिक्षा र सङ्गति, रोटी भाँच्‍ने कार्य र प्रार्थनामा लागिरहे ।
And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread and the prayers.
43 हरेक व्यक्तिमाथि डर छायो र प्रेरितहरूद्वारा धेरै अचम्मका कार्यहरू र चिन्हहरू भए ।
And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.
44 विश्‍वास गर्नेहरू सबै जना सँगसँगै बस्थे र तिनीहरूका सबै चिज साझा थिए ।
And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
45 र तिनीहरूले आफ्ना सम्पत्ति र स्वामित्वमा भएका कुराहरू बेचे र विश्‍वासीहरूको आवश्यकता अनुसार एकअर्कामा बाँडचुँड गरे ।
and they sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all, according as any man had need.
46 यसरी तिनीहरू दिनहुँ एकै उद्देश्यसहित मन्दिरमा भेला हुन्थे र तिनीहरूले घरघरमा रोटी भाँच्थे र हृदयको नम्रता र आनन्दसाथ एकअर्कामा भोजन बाँडचुँड गर्थे ।
And day by day, continuing stedfastly with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread at home, they did take their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
47 तिनीहरूले परमेश्‍वरको महिमा गर्थे र सबै मानिसहरूमाझ शुभेच्छा थियो । प्रभुले उद्धार पाइरहेकाहरूलाई दिनदिनै तिनीहरूका माझमा थप्‍नुभयो ।
praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to them day by day those that were being saved.
