प्रेरित 22
1 “मेरा दाजुभाइहरू र बुबाहरू हो, मेरो बचाउको कुरा सुन्नुहोस्, जुन मैले अहिले तपाईंहरूलाई बताउनेछु ।”
Men brothers and fathers, do hear of me the to you (now *N(k)O*) defense.
2 पावलले तिनीहरूसँग हिब्रू भाषामा बोलेको भिडले सुनेपछि भिड चुप लाग्यो । उनले भने,
Having heard then that in the Hebrew language he was addressing them, even more they became quiet. And he says;
3 “म किलिकियाको टार्ससमा जन्मेको एक यहूदी हुँ, तर यही सहरमा गमलिएलको चरणमा शिक्षा पाएको व्यक्ति हुँ । मलाई हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूको व्यवस्थाको कडा नियमहरूअनुसार शिक्षा दिइएको थियो । आज यहाँहरूजस्तै म पनि परमेश्वरको निम्ति जोसिलो भएको छु ।
I myself (indeed *k*) am a man Jewish born in Tarsus of Cilicia, brought up however in city this at the feet of Gamaliel instructed according to [the] exactness of the of our Fathers law, a zealous one being for God even as all you yourselves are this day,
4 मैले यस मार्गलाई मृत्युसम्मै सताएँ । मैले स्त्रीहरू र पुरुषहरू दुवैलाई बाँधेँ, र तिनीहरूलाई झ्यालखानामा सुम्पिदिएँ ।
who this Way persecuted as far as death binding and betraying to prisons men both and women,
5 मलाई दमस्कसमा यात्रा गर्नलाई त्यहाँका भाइहरूका लागि मैले प्रधान पूजाहारी र सबै धर्म-गुरुहरूबाट पत्र पनि पाएको थिएँ, जसको गवाही उहाँहरूले नै दिन सक्नुहुन्छ । मैले यस मार्गकाहरूलाई बाँधेर दण्ड दिनको लागि यरूशलेममा ल्याउनुपर्थ्यो ।
as also the high priest bears witness to me and all the elderhood, from whom also letters having received to the brothers to Damascus I was on my way going to bring also those there being bound to Jerusalem in order that they may be punished.
6 म यात्रा गर्दै दमस्कसको नजिकै पुग्दा, मध्यान्हतिर अचानक स्वर्गबाट एउटा विशाल ज्योति मेरो वरिपरि चम्किन लाग्यो ।
It happened however to me journeying and drawing near to Damascus about noon suddenly out of heaven shining a light great around me myself;
7 म भुइँमा लडेँ, र मलाई यस्तो भनेको आवाज सुनेँ, ʼए शाऊल, ए शाऊल, तिमी मलाई किन सताउँदै छौ? ʼ
I fell then to the ground and heard a voice saying to me; Saul Saul, why Me persecute you?
8 मैले जवाफ दिएँ, “तपाईं को हुनुहुन्छ, प्रभु?” उहाँले मलाई भन्नुभयो, ʼम नासरतको येशू हुँ, जसलाई तिमी सताउँदै छौ ।ʼ
I myself then answered; Who are You Lord? He said then to me; I myself am Jesus of Nazareth whom you yourself are persecuting.
9 मसँग भएकाहरूले त्यो ज्योति त देखे, तर मसँग बोल्नुहुनेको आवाजलाई भने सुनेनन् ।
Those then with me myself being the indeed light beheld (and terrified they were *K*) the however voice not did they hear the [One] speaking to me.
10 मैले भनेँ, ʼप्रभु, मैले के गर्नुपर्छ? ʼ प्रभुले मलाई भन्नुभयो, ʼउठ, र दमस्कसमा जाऊ । त्यहीँ नै तिमीले गर्नुपर्ने सबै कुरा तिमीलाई बताइनेछ” ।
I said then; What shall I do Lord? And the Lord said to me; Having risen up do go to Damascus, and there and there you it will be told concerning all things that it has been appointed you to do.
11 मैले त्यो ज्योतिको चमकले गर्दा देख्न सकिनँ । त्यसैले, मसँग भएका मानिसहरूका हातबाट डोर्याइएर म दमस्कस गएँ ।
While now not I was seeing because of the brightness of the light that, being led by the hand by those being with me I came to Damascus.
12 मैले त्यहाँ व्यवस्थाअनुसार भक्तिपूर्ण जीवन जिएका र त्यहाँ बस्ने सबै यहूदीहरूबाट सम्मान र आदर पाएका हननिया नाउँ गरेका मानिसलाई भेटेँ ।
Ananias then certain, a man (devout *N(k)O*) according to the law, borne witness to by all the dwelling [there] Jews,
13 उनी मकहाँ आए, र मेरो छेउमा उभिए, र भने, ʼभाइ शाऊल, दृष्टि प्राप्त गर ।ʼ त्यत्तिखेरै, मैले तिनलाई देखेँ ।
having come to me and having stood by [me] he said to me; Saul brother, do receive sight. And I myself And I myself on the same hour looked up at him.
14 तब तिनले भने, ʼहाम्रा पितापुर्खाहरूका परमेश्वरले उहाँको इच्छा जान्नको लागि धार्मिक जनलाई देख्न र उहाँको आफ्नै मुखबाट निस्केको आवाजलाई सुन्न तिमीलाई छान्नुभएको छ ।
And he said; The God of the fathers of us has appointed you to know the will of Him and to see the Righteous One and to hear [the] voice out of the mouth of Him;
15 किनभने तिमीले देखेका र सुनेका कुराहरूको बारेमा तिमी सबै मानिसहरूका लागि गवाही बन्नेछौ ।
For you will be a witness for Him to all men of what you have seen and heard.
16 अब तिमी किन पर्खिंदै छौ? उठ, बप्तिस्मा लेऊ, र उहाँको नाउँ पुकारेर आफ्ना पापहरू पखाल ।
And now why delay you? Having arisen do yourself be baptized and do yourself wash away the sins of you calling on the name (of Him. *N(K)O*)
17 म यरूशलेम फर्केपछि मैले मन्दिरमा प्रार्थना गरिरहँदा, म अर्धचेत अवस्थामा पुगेँ ।
It happened then to me having returned to Jerusalem and praying by me in the temple falling I into a trance
18 उहाँले मलाई यसो भन्नुभएको मैले देखेँ, ʼछिटो गर, र चाँडै यरूशलेम छोड । किनभने तिनीहरूले मेरोबारे तिम्रो गवाही ग्रहण गर्नेछैनन् ।ʼ
and seeing Him saying to me; do make haste and do go away with speed out of Jerusalem, because not they will receive your (*k*) testimony about Me.
19 मैले भनेँ, ʼहे प्रभु, तिनीहरू आफैँलाई थाहा छ, कि मैले कसरी तपाईंमा विश्वास गर्नेहरूलाई हरेक सभाघरमा पसेर पिटेँ, र जेलमा हालेँ ।
And I myself And I myself said; Lord, they themselves know that I myself was imprisoning and beating in each of those synagogues those believing on You;
20 तपाईंका साक्षी स्तिफनसको रगत बगाइँदा, म पनि नजिकै उभिएर सहमत हुदै थिएँ, र उनलाई मार्नेहरूको कपडा कुरिरहेको थिएँ ।
And when was poured out the blood of Stephen the witness of You, also I myself was already standing by and consenting (to the killing of him *K*) and watching over the garments of those executing him.
21 तर उहाँले मलाई भन्नुभयो, ʼगइहाल, किनभने म तिमीलाई अन्यजातिहरूकहाँ पठाउनेछुʼ ।”
And He said to me; do go, for I myself to [the] Gentiles far away will send you.
22 मानिसहरूले उनलाई यतिबेलासम्म बोल्न दिए । तर त्यसपछि तिनीहरू चिच्च्याए र भने, “यस्ता मानिसलाई पृथ्वीबाट हटाइदेओ, उनी बाँच्नु ठिक छैन ।”
They were listening now to him until this word and they lifted up the voice of them saying; Away from the earth [with] such; Not for (it was proper *N(k)O*) [for] him to live!
23 तिनीहरू कराउँदै, आफ्ना लुगाहरू फाल्दै, हावामा धुलो उडाउँदै गर्दा,
(While shouting out *NK(o)*) (then *N(k)O*) they and casting off the garments and dust throwing into the air
24 सेनापतिले पावललाई किल्लाभित्र ल्याउन आज्ञा गरे । उनले तिनलाई कोर्रा लगाउँदै सोधपुछ गर्न आदेश दिए, ताकि तिनीहरू उनको विरुद्ध किन त्यसरी चिच्च्याइरहेका थिए भनी उनी आफैँले थाहा पाउन सकून् ।
Ordered the commander (to be brought in *N(k)O*) him into the barracks having directed by flogging to be examined him, so that he may know for what cause like this they were crying out against him.
25 जब तिनीहरूले पावललाई डोरीले बाँधे, तब पावलले नजिकै उभिरहेका कप्तानलाई भने, “के एक रोमी नागरिक र दोषी नठहराइएको मानिसलाई कोर्रा लगाउनु तपाईंको निम्ति न्यायसङ्गत छ र?”
As however (they stretched forward *N(k)O*) him with the straps, said to the already standing by centurion Paul; If a man a Roman and uncondemned it is lawful to you to flog?
26 जब कप्तानले यो सुने, तब उनी सेनापतिकहाँ गए, र उनलाई भने, “तपाईंले यी मानिसलाई के गर्न लाग्दै हुनुहुन्छ? किनभने यी मानिस त रोमी नागरिक पो रहेछन् ।”
Having heard then the centurion having gone to the commander he reported [it] saying; (do you see *K*) what are you going to do? for man this a Roman is.
27 सेनापति आए, र उनलाई भने, “मलाई भन कि, के तिमी रोमी नागरिक हौ?” अनि पावलले भने, “हजुर, हुँ ।”
Having come near then the commander said to him; do tell me, (if *k*) you yourself a Roman are? And he was saying; Yes.
28 सेनापतिले जवाफ दिए, “मैले धेरै ठुलो धनराशी खर्च गरेर मात्र नागरिकता पाएको थिएँ ।” तर पावलले भने, “म त रोमी नागरिक भएरै जन्मेको हुँ ।”
Answered (then *N(k)O*) the commander; I myself with a great sum citizenship this bought. But Paul was saying; I myself however even has been born [so].
29 त्यसपछि पावललाई सोधपुछ गर्न गइरहेका मानिसहरू तुरुन्तै छोडेर गए । पावल रोमी नागरिक रहेछन् भनी थाहा पाएपछि सेनापति पनि डराए, किनभने उनले तिनलाई बाँधेका थिए ।
Immediately therefore departed from him those being about him to examine. and the commander also was afraid having ascertained that a Roman he is and because him he had having bound.
30 भोलिपल्ट मुख्य कप्तानले पावलको विरुद्धमा यहूदीहरूले लगाएको अभियोगको सत्यता जान्न चाहे । त्यसैले, उनले आफ्नो दलबललाई एकत्रित गरे, र प्रधान पूजाहारीहरूसाथै महासभाका सबै मानिसहरूलाई भेला हुनलाई आदेश दिए । त्यसपछि तिनले पावललाई तल ल्याए, र उनीहरूका बिचमा राखे ।
On the now next day desiring to know for certain why he is accused (by *N(k)O*) the Jews, he unbound him (from the chains *K*) and commanded (to assemble *N(k)O*) the chief priests and (all *N(k)O*) the council (of them, *k*) And having brought down Paul he set [him] among them.
