प्रेरित 20
1 खैलाबैला सकिएपछि, पावलले चेलाहरूलाई बोलाए र तिनीहरूलाई उत्साह दिए । तब तिनीहरूबाट बिदा भएर उनी माकेडोनिया जानका लागि हिँडे ।
THEN after the tumult was quieted, Paul called to him the disciples, and taking his leave, departed to go into Macedonia.
2 उनी ती क्षेत्रहरू भएर जाँदा त्यहाँका विश्वासीहरूलाई धेरै उत्साह दिँदै गए, त्यसपछि उनी ग्रीसतर्फ लागे ।
And passing through those parts, and having exhorted them with much discourse, he went into Greece.
3 उनले त्यहाँ तिन महिना बिताइसकेपछि जब उनी जहाजद्वारा यात्रा गरेर सिरियातर्फ लाग्ने तरखर गर्दै थिए, तब यहूदीहरूले उनको विरुद्धमा एउटा षडयन्त्र रचे । त्यसैले उनी माकेडोनिया भएर फर्किने निर्णय गरे ।
And after three months stay, as the Jews were lying in wait for him, when he was just embarking for Syria, he determined to return through Macedonia.
4 उनलाई एसियासम्म बेरिया निवासी पुरोसका छोरा सोपात्रोस, थेसलोनिकेका विश्वासीहरूबाट दुई जना अरिस्तार्खस र सिकन्दस; डर्बीका गायस; तिमोथी; अनि एसियाबाट तुखिकस र त्रोमिफसले साथ दिए ।
And there accompanied him as far as Asia, Sopater a Berean; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and Tychicus and Trophimus, Asiatics.
5 तर यी मानिसहरू हामीभन्दा अगि गएका थिए र त्रोआसमा हामीलाई पर्खिरहेका थिए ।
These going before tarried for us at Troas.
6 अखमिरी रोटीको चाडपछि हामी फिलिप्पीबाट जहाजमा चढेर हिँड्यौँ र पाँच दिनमा हामी त्रोआसमा तिनीहरूकहाँ आयौँ । त्यहाँ हामी सात दिनसम्म बस्यौँ ।
And we sailed from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them to Troas after five days; where we stayed seven days.
7 हप्ताको पहिलो दिन जब हामी रोटी भाँच्नलाई भेला भएका थियौँ, तब पावल विश्वासीहरूसँग बोल्न थाले । उनले त्यहाँबाट अर्को दिन हिँड्ने योजना गरेकाले उनी मध्यरातसम्मै बोलिरहे ।
And on the first day of the week, when the disciples were assembled to break bread, Paul preached unto them (ready to depart on the morrow), and extended his discourse until midnight.
8 हामीहरू भेला भएको माथिल्लो कोठामा धेरै बत्तीहरू थिए ।
Now there were many lamps in the upper room, where they were assembled.
9 युटिकस नाउँको एक जना जवान मानिस झ्यालमा बसिरहेको थियो, र त्यो गहिरोमा निद्रमा पर्यो । पावलले अझै बोल्दै जाँदा निद्रामा परेको त्यो जवान मानिस तेस्रो तल्लाबाट झर्यो र तिनीहरूले त्यसलाईलाई मृत अवस्थामा उठाए ।
And a certain youth named Eutytchus, who sat in the window, fell into a profound sleep: as Paul discoursed much longer than usual, quite overpowered with sleep, he fell down from a third story, and was taken up dead.
10 तर पावल तल गएर त्यसतिनीमाथि लम्पसार परे र त्यसलाई अँगालोमा हाले । त्यसपछि उनले भने “चिन्तित नहुनुहोस् किनभने ऊ जीवितै छन् ।”
But Paul came down, and fell upon him, and taking him in his arms, said, Trouble not yourselves, for his life is yet in him.
11 त्यसपछि उनी फेरि माथिल्लो तल्लामा गए र रोटी भाँचे र खाए । झिसमिसे उज्यालो हुदाँसम्म पनि उनले तिनीहरूसँग कुराकानी गरिरहे र त्यसपछि त्यहाँबाट हिँडे ।
And when he had gone up, and broken bread, and eaten, and conversed a long time, even to the break of day, he then departed.
12 तिनीहरूले ती ठिटालाई जीवितै ल्याए र धेरै सान्त्वना पाए ।
And they brought the lad alive, and were comforted exceedingly.
13 हामी पावलभन्दा अगि जहाजमा चढेर आस्सोसतिर लाग्यौँ, जहाँ हामीले पावललाई जहाजमा ल्याउने योजना गर्यौँ । उनी आफैँले यस्तो चाहना गरे किनकि उनले जमिनको बाटो भएर जाने योजना गरेका थिए ।
Then we going before to the ship, sailed for Assos, intending there to take in Paul: for so he had ordered, meaning himself to walk thither.
14 उनले हामीलाई आस्सोसमा भेटेपछि, हामीले उनलाई जहाजमा लियौँ अनि मिटिलेने गयौँ ।
And when he met us at Assos, we took him up, and came to Mytelene.
15 त्यसपछि हामी त्यहाँबाट यात्रा गरेर अर्को दिन खियोस टापुको सामुन्ने आइपुग्यौँ । भोलिपल्ट सामोस टापुमा पुग्यौँ अनि अर्को दिन हामी मिलेटस सहरमा आयौँ ।
And sailing from thence, on the following day we advanced over against Chios; and the next day we touched at Samos, and staying at Trogyllium, the day following we came to Miletus.
16 सम्भव भएसम्म पावल पेन्तिकोसको दिनमा यरूशलेममा पुग्नलाई हतार गरिरहेका थिए, त्यसैले उनले एसियामा कुनै समय नबिताइकन एफिसस भएर यात्रा गर्ने निर्णय गरे ।
For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, that he might not spend the time in Asia: for he hastened on, if it was possible for him, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.
17 मिलेटसबाट उनले एफिससमा मानिसहरूलाई पठाए अनि मण्डलीका एल्डरहरूलाई आफूकहाँ बोलाए ।
So he sent to Ephesus from Miletus, and called the presbyters of the church to attend him.
18 तिनीहरू उनीकहाँ आएपछि, उनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तपाईंहरू आफैँ जान्नुहुन्छ कि एसियामा पाइला टेकेको पहिलो दिनदेखि नै मैले सधैँ तपाईंहरूसँग आफ्नो समय कसरी बिताएँ ।
And when they were come unto him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the very first day in which I entered into Asia, how I have been among you at every season,
19 यहूदीहरूका षड्यन्त्रहरूका बिचमा मैले मनको सारा नम्रतामा, आँशु बगाउँदै र कष्टहरूमा समेत प्रभुको सेवा गरिरहेँ ।
serving the Lord with all humility, and with many tears and trials, which have befallen me through the lying in wait of the Jews:
20 कुनै पनि भलाइको कुरा तपाईंहरूको बिचमा घोषणा गर्नदेखि मैले आफैँलाई रोकिनँ अनि सार्वजनिक रूपमा र घर-घरमा गएर मैले कसरी तपाईंहरूलाई शिक्षा दिएँ भन्ने कुरा तपाईंहरूलाई थाहै छ ।
and that I have suppressed nothing which could conduce to your profiting; not desisting from preaching to you, and teaching you in public, and from house to house,
21 तपाईंहरूलाई थाहै छ कि मैले कसरी यहूदी र ग्रीकहरू दुवैलाई परमेश्वरतिर फर्कन पश्चात्ताप गर्नुपर्ने र हाम्रा प्रभु येशूमा विश्वास गर्नुपर्ने कुराको बारेमा चेताउनी दिइरहेँ ।
repeatedly urging both on Jews and Greeks repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 अब हेर्नुहोस्, म पवित्र आत्मामा बाध्य भएर यरूशलेममा जाँदैछु, त्यहाँ मलाई के-कस्तो हुन आउने हो त्यो मलाई थाहा छैन ।
And now behold I am going, bound by the Spirit, unto Jerusalem, not knowing what things shall there befal me:
23 केवल पवित्र आत्माले मलाई यो गवाही दिनुहुन्छ कि हरेक सहरमा साङ्लाहरू र कष्टहरूले मलाई पर्खिरहेका छन् ।
only this, that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying, that bonds and tribulation await thee.
24 तर म आफ्नो जीवनलाई कुनै मूल्यको ठान्दिनँ, ताकि परमेश्वरको अनुग्रहको सुसमाचारको गवाही बन्नको निम्ति मेरो दौड र प्रभु येशूबाट मलाई प्राप्त भएको सेवा-कार्य पुरा गर्न सकूँ ।
Yet I make no account of any suffering, nor regard my life as of any value to myself, farther than as I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord, to testify fully the Gospel of the grace of God.
25 र अब हेर्नुहोस्, मलाई थाहा छ कि तपाईंहरू सबै जसलाई मैले राज्यको प्रचार गरेँ, तपाईंहरूले अब उसो मेरो मुहार कहिल्यै देख्नुहुनेछैन ।
And now behold, I know that ye shall see my face no more, even ye all, among whom I have gone in and out preaching the kingdom of God.
26 त्यसकारण तपाईंहरूलाई आजको दिन म यो गवाही दिन्छु कि म कुनै मानिसको रगतदेखि निर्दोष छु ।
Wherefore I appeal to you this day as witnesses that I am pure from the blood of all men.
27 किनकि मैले तपाईंहरूलाई परमेश्वरको सम्पूर्ण इच्छा घोषणा गर्नेदेखि आफैँलाई रोकिनँ ।
For I have concealed nothing, so as not repeatedly to declare to you the whole counsel of God.
28 त्यसकारण तपाईंहरू आफ्नै निम्ति र सारा बगालको बारेमा होसियार हुनुहोस्, जुन बगालका लागि पवित्र आत्माले तपाईंहरूलाई देखरेख गर्ने तुल्याउनु भयो ताकि प्रभुले आफ्नै रगतले किन्नुभएका उहाँको बगालका गोठाला भई तपाईंहरू काम गर्नुहोस् ।
Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you bishops, to feed as shepherds the church of God, which he purchased with his own blood.
29 मलाई थाहा छ कि म यहाँबाट गएपछि, खतरनाक ब्वाँसाहरू तपाईंहरूका बिचमा प्रवेश गर्नेछन् र बगाललाई बाँकी राख्ने छैनन् ।
For this I know, that after my departure there will come among you grievous wolves, not sparing the flock:
30 मलाई थाहा छ कि तपाईंहरूमध्येबाटै केही मानिसहरू आउनेछन् र चेलाहरूलाई आफ्नोपछि तान्नका लागि भ्रष्ट कुराहरू गर्नेछन् ।
Yea, from among yourselves shall men arise, speaking perverting doctrines, to draw away disciples after them.
31 त्यसैले होसियार हुनुहोस् । यो सम्झना गर्नुहोस् कि तिन वर्षसम्म दिन र रात आँशु बगाउँदै तपाईंहरू हरेक जनालाई निर्देशन दिन म पछि परिनँ ।
Therefore watch, remembering that for three years, by night and by day, I have never ceased with tears to admonish every individual.
32 र अब म तपाईंहरूलाई परमेश्वरमा र उहाँको अनुग्रहको वचनमा सुम्पिन्छु, जुन तपाईंहरूलाई निर्माण गर्न र परमेश्वरमा समर्पित भएकाहरू सबैका माझमा तपाईंहरूलाई उत्तराधिकार दिन सक्षम छ ।
And now, brethren, I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to finish the superstructure, and to give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
33 मैले कुनै मानिसको सुन, चाँदी वा कपडाको लोभ गरिनँ ।
The silver, or gold, or apparel of no man have I coveted:
34 तपाईंहरू आफैँ जान्नुहुन्छ कि यी हातहरूले मेरा आफ्नै र मसँग भएकाहरूका आवश्यकताहरू पुरा गरेका छन् ।
but ye yourselves know that these hands have by labour furnished necessaries for my own wants, and for those who were with me.
35 सबै कुरामा मैले तपाईंहरूलाई कसरी काम गरेर कमजोरहरूको सहायता गर्नुपर्छ र प्रभु येशूका वचनहरूको सम्झना गर्नुपर्छ भन्ने उदाहरण दिएको छु, जसरी उहाँ आफैँले यी वचनहरू भन्नुभयो, ʼलिनुभन्दा दिनु अझ बढी आशिष्को कुरो हो ।ʼ”
In all things I have set you the example, that so labouring hard ye ought to help the infirm, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, because he himself said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
36 उनले यसरी बोलिसकेपछि उनले घुँडा टेके र सबै जनासँग प्रार्थना गरे ।
And when he had spoken these things, he fell on his knees, and prayed with them all.
37 तिनीहरू सबै जना धेरै रोए र उनलाई अँगालो हाले र चुम्बन गरे ।
And all of them shed floods of tears, and fell upon Paul’s neck, and kissed him again and again,
38 तिनीहरूले उनको मुहार फेरि कहिल्यै पनि देख्ने छैनन् भनी उनले भनेका हुनाले तिनीहरू धेरै जना दु: खित भए । तब तिनीहरूले उनलाई जहाजसम्म पुर्याए ।
most peculiarly afflicted at that word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more: and they accompanied him unto the ship.
