प्रेरित 28
1 हामीलाई सुरक्षित तरिकाले ल्याइएको टापुको नाम माल्टा रहेछ भन्ने कुरा हामीले जान्यौँ ।
And, when we were safely through, then, we knew that the island was called, Melita.
2 ती स्थानीय मानिसहरूले सामान्य खालको दया मात्र देखाएनन्, निरन्तर पानी परेर जाडो भएको हुनाले तिनीहरूले आगो बालेर हामी सबै जनालाई स्वागत पनि गरे ।
And, the natives, began to shew us no common philanthropy; for, kindling a fire, they received us all, because of the rain that had set in, and because of the cold.
3 तर जब पावलले एक बिटा दाउरा जम्मा गरे, र त्यसलाई आगोमा हाले, तापले गर्दा एउटा विषालु सर्प निस्केर उनको हातमा बेरियो ।
But, when Paul had gathered a certain lot of firewood into a bundle, and laid it on the fire, a viper, by reason of the heat, coming forth, fastened on his hand.
4 जब त्यहाँको स्थानीय मानिसहरूले उनको हातमा त्यो प्राणी झुण्डीरहेको देखे, तब तिनीहरूले एक आपसमा यसो भने, “यो मानिस पक्का पनि हत्यारा हो, जो समुद्रबाट उम्केको थियो, तापनि इन्साफले उसलाई जिउन दिएन ।
And, when the natives saw the brute hanging out from his hand, they began to say, one to another—Doubtless, this man is, a murderer, whom, though brought safely through out of the sea, Justice, hath not suffered, to live.
5 तब उनले त्यो प्राणीलाई आगोमा झट्कारी दिए र कुनै हानी भोगेनन् ।
He, however, shaking of the brute into the fire, suffered no harm;
6 तिनीहरूले उनलाई हनहनी ज्वरो आउँछ होला भनेर हेरिरहेका थिए, वा तिनी अचानक मर्छन् होला भन्ने ठानेका थिए । तर तिनीहरूले उनलाई लामो समयसम्म हेरिसकेपछि, उनलाई कुनै पनि असामान्य कुरा नभएको देखे, र तिनीहरूले आफ्नो विचारलाई परिवर्तन गरेर उनी त ईश्वर रहेछन् भने ।
whereas, they, were expecting, that he was about to become inflamed, or to fall down suddenly dead; —but, when they had been long expecting, and had observed, nothing unusual, happening unto him, they changed their minds, and began to say he was a god.
7 त्यसको नजिकैको स्थानमा, पब्लियस नाम गरेको त्यस टापुको मुख्य मानिसको जमिन थियो । उनले हामीलाई स्वागत गरे, र दयाका साथ हामीलाई तिन दिनसम्म बन्दोबस्त गरिदिए ।
Now, in the neighbourhood of that place, were lands, belonging to the chief man of the island, by name Publius, —who, making us welcome, for three days, hospitably entertained us.
8 पब्लियसका बुबा ज्वरो र आऊँले गर्दा बिरामी परेका थिए । जब पावल उनी भएको ठाउँमा गए, उनले प्रार्थना गरे, उनी माथि हात राखे र उनलाई निको पारे ।
And it so happened that, the father of Publius, with feverish heats and dysentery distressed, was lying prostrate: unto whom Paul entering in and praying, laid his hands on him, and healed him.
9 यस्तो घटना भइसके पछि, त्यस टापुमा रहेका बिरामी मानिसहरू पनि उनीकहाँ आए, र सबै निको पारिए ।
And, when this happened, the rest also, even they in the island who were sick, were coming in and getting cured;
10 ती मानिसहरूले धेरै सम्मानका साथ हाम्रो आदर गरे । जब हामीले जहाजको यात्राको लागि तयारी गरिरहेका थियौँ, तिनीहरूले हामीलाई खाँचो परेका सबै थोकहरू दिए ।
who also, with many honours, honoured us, and, when we were about to sail, put on board such things as we might need.
11 तिन महिना पछि त्यस टापुमा हामीले अलेक्जेन्ड्रियाको जहाजमा यात्रा सुरू गर्यौँ, जुन हिउँदमा यसै टापुमा थियो, र त्यसमा जुम्ल्याहा दाजुभाइको तस्विर थियो ।
And, after three months, we sailed in a ship which had wintered in the island, [a ship] of Alexandria, whose ensign was The Twin Brothers;
12 साइराक्युस शहरमा पुगिसकेपछि त्यहाँ हामी तीन दिन बस्यौँ ।
and, touching at Syracuse, we tarried three days;
13 हामी त्यहाँबाट यात्रा गरेर रेगीयमको शहरमा आइपुग्यौँ । त्यसको एक दिनपछि दक्षिणी बतास चल्यो, र त्यसको दुई दिनपछि पटेओली भन्ने शहरमा आइपुग्यौँ।
whence, going round, we reached Rhegium; and, after one day, a south wind springing up, on the second day, we came to Puteoli;
14 त्यहाँ हामीले केही भाइहरूलाई भेट्टायौँ, जसले हामीलाई सात दिनसम्म त्यहाँ रहनको लागि निमन्त्रणा दिए । यसरी हामी रोम आइपुग्यौँ ।
where, finding brethren, we were entreated to tarry, with them, seven days; —and, thus, towards Rome, we came.
15 हाम्रो बारेमा सुनेर त्यहाँ रहेका दाजुभाइहरू हामीलाई भेट्न आप्पियासको बजार र तिन भट्टीसम्म आए । जब पावलले ती दाजुभाइहरूलाई देखे, उनले परमेश्वरलाई धन्यवाद दिए र उत्साहित भए ।
And, when from thence the brethren heard the tidings concerning us, they came to meet us, as far as The Market of Appius and the Three Taverns—seeing whom, Paul thanked God, and took courage.
16 जब हामी रोममा प्रवेश गर्यौँ, पावललाई एक जना सिपाहीको रेखदेखमा एक्लै बस्ने अनुमति दिइयो ।
And, when we entered into Rome, Paul was suffered to abide by himself, with the soldier that guarded him.
17 तब यसको तिन दिनपछि, पावलले यहूदीहरूका अगुवाहरूलाई एकसाथ बोलाए । जब तिनीहरूसँगसँगै आइपुगे उनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “दाजुभाइ हो, यद्यपि मैले मानिसहरूको विरुद्धमा वा पितापुर्खाको रितीरिवाजको विरुद्धमा कुनै पनि काम गरेको छैन, मलाई एक जना कैदीको रूपमा यरूशलेमबाट रोमीहरूको हातमा सुम्पिएको छ ।
And it came to pass, after three days, that he called together those who were the chief of the Jews; and, when they came together, he began to say unto them—I, brethren, though I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, as a prisoner, out of Jerusalem, was delivered into the hands of the Romans;
18 तिनीहरूले मलाई प्रश्न गरिसकेपछि, तिनीहरूले मलाई स्वतन्त्र गर्न चाहे, किनकि ममा मृत्युदण्डको सजाय पाउनु पर्ने कुनै पनि कारण थिएन ।
who, indeed, when they had examined me, were minded to set me at liberty, because there was, nothing worthy of death, in me.
19 तर जब यहूदीहरूले तिनीहरूको चाहना विरुद्धमा बोले, तब कैसरकहाँ अपिल गर्न म बाध्य भएँ, तथापि यो मैले मेरो जातिको विरुद्धमा कुनै पनि दोष लगाइरहेको जस्तो थिएन ।
But, as the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar, —not as though, against my nation, I had anything to bring by way of accusation.
20 तब मेरो अपिलको कारणले गर्दा मैले तपाईंहरूलाई भेट्न, र कुराकानी गर्न बोलाएको हुँ । इस्राएल जे कुराको निम्ति दृढ छ, त्यसैको निम्ति म साङ्लाले बाँधिएको छु ।
For this cause, therefore, have I called for you, to see and to speak with you; for, on account of the hope of Israel, this chain, have I about me!
21 तब तिनीहरूले उनलाई भने, “हामीले न त तपाईंको बारेमा यहूदाबाट कुनै पत्र नै प्राप्त गर्यौँ, न त कुनै भाइहरू आएर तपाईंको बारेमा कुनै नराम्रो प्रतिवेदन दिए वा कुनै नराम्रो कुरा गरे ।
And, they, said unto him—We, have neither received letters concerning thee from the Jews, nor hath anyone of the brethren who hath arrived reported or spoken concerning thee, anything ill.
22 तर हामीले यस पन्थको बारेमा के विचार गर्नुहुन्छ भन्ने कुरा तपाईंबाट सुन्न चाहन्छौँ, किनकि यसको विरुद्धमा बोलिन्छ भनेर हामीहरूले जन्दछौँ ।
But we deem it well, that, from thee, we should hear what are thine opinions; for, indeed, concerning this sect, it is, known to us, that, everywhere, is it spoken against.
23 जब उनीहरूले उनको निम्ति एक दिन तोकिदिए, तब उनको बासस्थानमा धेरै मानिसहरू आए । उनले त्यस विषयलाई उनीहरूको सामु प्रस्तुत गरे, र परमेश्वरको राज्यको बारेमा गवाही दिए । उनले तिनीहरूलाई येशू ख्रीष्टको बारेमा मोशा र अगमवक्ताको पुस्तक दुवैबाट बिहानदेखि बेलुकासम्म विश्वस्त पार्ने कोसिस गरे ।
And, having arranged with him a day, there came unto him, to the lodging, a larger number; unto whom he proceeded to expound, bearing full witness as to the kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses, and from the prophets, —from morning till evening.
24 कति जना भनिएको कुरामा विश्वस्त भए भने कतिले विश्वास गरेनन् ।
And, some, indeed, were persuaded by the things that were spoken, whereas, others, disbelieved;
25 जब तिनीहरू एक अर्कामा सहमत भएनन् तब पावलले यो एउटा वचन बोलिसकेपछि तिनीहरू गए, “पवित्र आत्माले यशैया अगमवक्ताद्वारा तिम्रा पितापुर्खाहरूसँग ठिकै कुरा बोल्नुभयो ।
and, not being, agreed, among themselves, they began to leave, —Paul having said one thing—Well, did, the Holy Spirit, speak through Isaiah the prophet, unto your fathers,
26 उनले भने, “यी मानिसहरूकहाँ जा, र भन्, ‘सुन्न त तिमीहरू सुन्नेछौ तर बुझ्दैनौ, देखेर देख्नेछौ तर सजग हुनेछैनौ ।
saying—Go thy way unto this people, and say—Ye shall, surely hear, and yet will in nowise understand. And, surely see, and yet will in nowise perceive;
27 किनकि यी मानिसहरूका हृदय सुस्त भएका छन् । तिनीहरूको कानले मुश्किलसाथ सुनेका छन् । तिनीहरूले आँखा बन्द गरेका छन्, नत्रता तिनीहरूको आँखा सजग हुने थिए, र तिनीहरूका कानले सुन्ने थिए, र तिनीहरूका हृदयले बुझ्ने थिए, र फर्कने थिए र म तिनीहरूलाई निको पार्ने थिएँ ।’
For the heart of this people, hath become dense, and, with their ears, heavily, have they heard, and, their eyes, have they closed, —lest once they should see with their eyes, and, with their ears, should hear, and, with their hearts, should understand, and return, —when I would certainly heal them.
28 त्यसकारण, तिमीले जान्नुपर्ने हुन्छ, कि परमेश्वरको मुक्तिलाई अन्यजातिहरूका निम्ति पठाईएको छ, र तिनीहरूले सुन्नेछन् ।
Be it, known unto you, therefore, that, unto the nations, hath been sent forth this salvation of God: they, will also hear.
29 (टिपोट: प्रेरित २८:२९- उत्तम प्राचिन पाण्डुलिपिहरूले २९ पदलाई हटाएका छन् ) जब उनले यी कुराहरू भनिसके, तब ती यहूदीहरू ठूलो वाद-विवाद गर्दै बिदा भए ।
30 पावल आफ्नो भाडामा लिएको घरमा पुरा दुई वर्षसम्म बसे, र उनीकहाँ आउने सबैलाई स्वागत गरे ।
And he abode two whole years in his own hired house, and made welcome all who were coming in unto him, —
31 उनले परमेश्वरको राज्यको प्रचार गरिरहेका थिए, र ठुलो साहसका साथ प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्टको बारेमा शिक्षा दिइरहेका थिए । कसैले पनि उनलाई रोकेन ।
proclaiming the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, with all freedom of speech, without hindrance.
