यूहन्‍ना 5

1 यसपछि यहूदीहरूको चाड थियो, र येशू यरूशलेम जानुभयो ।

Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem when the Jews were having [another] celebration.

2 यरूशलेमको भेडा-ढोका नजिकै एउटा तलाउ छ जसलाई हिब्रूमा बेथस्दा भनिन्छ जसको छानासहितका पाँचवटा दलान छन् ।

At one of the gates [into the city] called the Sheep Gate, there is a pool. In our language we call it Bethzatha. [Around the pool] were five open areas with roofs over them.

3 त्यहाँ ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा बिरामीहरू, अन्धा, लङ्गडा र पक्षाघातीहरू त्यो तलाउको नजिक पडिरहेका थिए । (नोटः उत्कृष्‍ट प्राचीन प्रतिलिपीहरूबाट यो पदावलीलाई हटाइएको छ) । ३ तिनीहरूले पानी छचल्किएको पर्खिरहेका थिए ।

Many people were lying there. They were people who were blind, lame, or paralyzed.

4 (नोटः उत्कृष्‍ट प्राचीन प्रतिलिपीहरूले पद ४ लाई हटाएको छ) । ४ “परमेश्‍वरका स्वर्गदूत तल ओर्लिएर पानीलाई कुनै समयमा हल्लाइदिन्थे र त्यो पानी छचल्किरहँदा जो पहिले पानीमा पस्थ्यो त्यसको जस्तोसुकै रोग भए तापनि निको भइहाल्थ्यो ।

5 त्यहाँ अठतिस वर्षदेखि रोगले ग्रसित भएको कुनै एक जना मानिस थियो ।

One of those who was there had been paralyzed for 38 years.

6 जब येशूले त्यसलाई त्यहाँ पल्टिरहेको देख्‍नुभयो र उहाँले त्यो मानिस त्यहाँ धेरै समयदेखि रहेको थियो भनी महसुस गर्नुभयो, तब उहाँले त्यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “के तिमी स्वस्थ हुन चाहन्छौ?”

Jesus saw him lying there and found out that the man had been like that for a long time. He said to the man, “Do you want to become well?”

7 त्यो बिरामी मानिसले जवाफ दियो, “महाशय, पानी छचल्किँदा मलाई पानीमा राखिदिने मेरो कोही पनि छैन । म आउँदा मभन्दा अगि अर्को पसिहाल्छ ।”

The paralyzed man replied to him, “[Yes], sir, [I want to get well, but] there is no one to help me get down into the pool when the water is stirred {stirs}. While I am trying to get [to the pool], someone else always gets there before me.”

8 येशूले त्यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “उठ, आफ्नो चकटी लेऊ, र हिँड ।”

Jesus said to him, “Get up! Then pick up your mat and walk!”

9 त्यो मानिस तुरुन्तै निको भयो र त्यसले आफ्नो ओछ्यान उठायो, र हिँड्यो । अब त्यो विश्रामको दिन थियो ।

The man immediately was healed. He picked up his mat and started walking! The day on which this happened was a Jewish day of rest.

10 त्यसैले, यहूदीहरूले त्यो निको भएको मानिसलाई भने, “यो विश्रामको दिन हो, र तिमीलाई तिम्रो चकटी बोकेर हिँड्ने अनुमति छैन ।”

So the Jewish [leaders] said to the man who had been healed, “Today is (the Sabbath/our rest day), and [in our Jewish] laws [it is written that people should not work on our] ([Sabbath/rest day]), so you should not be carrying your mat!”

11 त्यसले जवाफ दियो, “जसले मलाई स्वस्थ बनाउनुभयो, उहाँले नै मलाई ‘तिम्रो चकटी उठाऊ र हिँड’ भन्‍नुभयो ।”

The man replied to them, “The man who healed me, he himself said to me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk!’”

12 उनीहरूले त्यसलाई भने, “तिमीलाई ‘तिम्रो यो उठाऊ र हिँड’ भन्‍ने त्यो मानिस को हो?”

They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick it up and walk!’?”

13 तापनि येशू सुटुक्‍क गइसक्‍नुभएकोले जो निको भएको थियो, त्यसलाई उहाँ को हुनुहुन्थ्यो भन्‍ने थाहा थिएन, किनकि त्यहाँ भिड लागेको थियो ।

But since Jesus had disappeared in the crowd [without telling the man his name], the man did not know who it was [who had healed him].

14 पछि येशूले त्यस मानिसलाई मन्दिरमा भेट्टाउनुभयो र भन्‍नुभयो, “हेर, तिमी स्वस्थ भएका छौ । अब पाप नगर, ताकि तिमीमाथि योभन्दा झन् खराबी आइनपरोस् ।”

Later, Jesus found the man in the Temple [courtyard]. He [told the man his name, and] said to him, “Listen! You are healed! So stop sinning! If you do not stop sinning, something will happen to you that will be worse [than the illness you had before]!”

15 त्यो मानिस गयो र त्यसलाई स्वस्थ बनाउने येशू हुनुहुँदोरहेछ भनी त्यसले यहूदीहरूलाई बतायो ।

The man went away and told the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] that it was Jesus who had healed him.

16 अब यी कुराहरूका कारणले यहूदीहरूले येशूलाई सताए, किनकि उहाँले यी कुराहरू विश्रामको दिनमा गर्नुभएको थियो ।

So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] started to harass Jesus, because Jesus was doing these things (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day).

17 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिनुभयो, “मेरा पिताले अहिले पनि काम गरिरहनुभएको छ र म पनि काम गरिरहेको छु ।”

Then Jesus replied to them, “My Father has always been working every day, [including] ([the Sabbath/the day of rest]), up until now. I am doing the same thing!”

18 यसले गर्दा यहूदीहरूले उहाँलाई झनै मार्न खोजे, किनकि उहाँले विश्राम दिन मात्र तोड्नुभएन, तर आफैँलाई परमेश्‍वर समान तुल्याएर परमेश्‍वरलाई पिता भन्‍नुभयो ।

The Jewish leaders [SYN] considered that he was disobeying their rules about (the Sabbath/the day of rest), and that by saying that God was his Father, he was making himself equal with God. And they considered that both these things were grounds for killing him. So they tried even harder to find a way to kill him.

19 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिनुभयो, “साँचो, साँचो, पिताले गरिरहनुभएको देख्‍नु बाहेक पुत्र आफैँले केही गर्न सक्दैन, किनकि पिताले जे गरिरहनुभएको छ पुत्रले पनि त्यही कुराहरू गर्छ ।

Jesus replied to them by saying, “You need to know this: I can do nothing by my own [authority]. I do only the [kind of] things that I see [my] Father doing. Whatever kinds of things my Father is doing, those are the things I am doing.

20 किनभने पिताले पुत्रलाई प्रेम गर्नुहुन्छ, र उहाँ आफूले गर्नुहुने सबै कुरा पुत्रलाई देखाउनुहुन्छ अनि उहाँले उनलाई यी कुराहरूभन्दा पनि ठुला कुराहरू देखाउनुहुनेछ, ताकि तिमीहरू अचम्मित हुन सक ।

[My] Father loves me, and he shows me everything that he is doing. He will show me [the miracles] that [he wants me to do] that will be greater than the ones that [you have already seen me do], so that you may be amazed.

21 किनकि पिताले जसरी मृतकलाई जीवित पार्नुहुन्छ, र तिनीहरूलाई जीवन दिनुहुन्छ, त्यसरी नै पुत्रले पनि जसलाई चाहन्छ त्यसलाई जीवन दिन्छ ।

[For example], just like [my] Father causes people who have died to become alive again, I will give [eternal] life to everyone that I want to.

22 किनकि पिताले कसैको न्याय गर्नुहुन्‍न, तर उहाँले न्याय गर्ने सबै काम पुत्रलाई दिनुभएको छ ।

Furthermore, [my] Father is not the one who judges people [concerning their sins]. Instead, he has given to me the work of judging people,

23 त्यसैले, तिनीहरूले पितालाई आदर गरेझैँ, सबैले पुत्रलाई आदर गर्नेछन् । जसले पुत्रलाई आदर गर्दैन, त्यसले उहाँलाई पठाउनुहुने पितालाई पनि आदर गर्दैन ।

in order that all people may honor me, just like they honor [my] Father. [My] Father [considers that] anyone who does not honor me is not honoring [him], the one who sent me.

24 साँचो, साँचो, जसले मेरो वचन सुन्छ र मलाई पठाउनुहुनेलाई विश्‍वास गर्छ त्यससँग अनन्त जीवन हुन्छ र त्यो दोषी ठहराइनेछैन, तर त्यो मृत्युबाट जीवनमा सरेको छ । (aiōnios g166)

Listen to this carefully: Those who hear my message and believe that [God] is the one who sent me have eternal life. [God will] not (condemn them/say that he will punish them). They are no longer separated from God. Instead, they have [eternal] life. (aiōnios g166)

25 साँचो, साँचो म तिमीहरूलाई भन्छु, समय आइरहेको छ र यो अहिले नै हो, जब मृतकहरूले परमेश्‍वरका पुत्रको सोर सुन्‍नेछन्, र ती सुन्‍नेहरू बाँच्‍नेछन् ।

Listen to this carefully: There will be a time when those who are (spiritually dead/separated from God) will hear the voice of me, (the Son of God/the man who is also God). In fact, it is that time already. Those who hear [and pay attention to my message] will have [eternal] life.

26 किनकि जसरी पिता आफैँसँग जीवन छ, त्यसरी नै उहाँले पुत्रलाई पनि दिनुभएको छ, ताकि ऊ आफैँसँग जीवन होस्,

[My] Father has [power to] make things live. Similarly, he has given me the [power to enable] people to live [eternally].

27 र पिताले पुत्रलाई न्याय गर्ने अधिकार दिनुभएको छ । किनकि ऊ मानिसका पुत्र हो ।

Because I am the one who came from heaven, he has given me the authority to judge people [concerning their sins].

28 यस कुरामा तिमीहरू अचम्म नमान, किनकि चिहानमा हुनेहरूले उसको सोर सुन्‍ने समय आइरहेको छ,

Do not be surprised about that, because there will be a time when all people who have died will hear my voice,

29 र तिनीहरू चिहानबाट बाहिर आउनेछन्ः असल गर्नेहरू जीवनको पुनरुत्थानको निम्ति र दुष्‍ट काम गर्नेहरू न्यायको पुनरुत्थानको निम्ति ।

and they will become alive again. Those who have lived good [lives] will rise [from their graves] and live forever. But those who have lived evil lives will rise, and I will (condemn them/declare that I will punish them [for their sins]).

30 म आफैँले केही गर्न सक्दिनँ । म जस्तो सुन्छु त्यस्तै न्याय गर्छु र मेरो न्याय धार्मिक हुन्छ, किनकि मैले आफ्नो इच्छा खोजिरहेको छैनँ, तर मलाई पठाउनुहुनेको इच्छा खोजिरहेको छु ।

I do not do anything [like that] by my own authority. I judge people only according to what I hear [my Father tell me]. I will judge people fairly, because I do not want to please only myself. Instead, I want to please [my Father], who sent me.

31 यदि म आफैँले आफ्नै बारेमा गवाही दिने हो भने मेरो गवाही सत्य हुँदैनथ्यो ।

If I were the [only] one to tell people about myself, [people could rightly say that] what I say is not true.

32 मेरो बारेमा गवाही दिनुहुने अर्को एक जना हुनुहुन्छ, र म जान्दछु, कि उहाँले मेरो विषयमा दिनुहुने गवाही सत्य हुन्छ ।

But there is someone else who tells people about me. And I know that what he tells people about me is true.

33 तिमीहरूले यूहन्‍नाकहाँ पठाएका छौ र उनले सत्य गवाही दिएका छन् ।

As for you, when you sent messengers to John [the Baptizer to ask about me], he told the truth [about me].

34 तर मैले प्राप्‍त गर्ने त्यो गवाही मानिसबाट आएको होइन । तिमीहरूलाई बचाइयोस् भनी म यी कुराहरू भन्छु ।

I do not [need that] people tell others [about me]. But instead, I am reminding [you about what John told people about me], in order that you will [believe it and] be saved {[God] will save you}.

35 यूहन्‍ना बोलिरहेका र चम्किरहेका बत्ती थिए र तिमीहरू उनको ज्योतिमा केही क्षणका लागि आनन्द मनाउन तत्पर थियौ ।

[John’s message about me] (OR, [John]) [MET] was [like] a lamp that shines brightly. For a short while you were willing to be made happy [by that message] {to let [that message] make you happy}.

36 तैपनि मसँग भएको गवाही त्योभन्दा पनि महान् छ, किनकि पिताले मलाई पुरा गर्न दिनुभएका कामहरू र मैले गर्ने कामहरूले नै मलाई पिताले पठाउनुभएको हो भन्‍ने गवाही दिन्छन् ।

But there is something else that tells you about me. [It should prove who I am] more than what John [said about me]. The miracles [PRS] that [my] Father told me to do, the miracles that I am performing, show (OR, prove) to people that my Father sent me.

37 मलाई पठाउनुहुने पिता आफैँले मेरो विषयमा गवाही दिनुभएको छ । तिमीहरूले न उहाँको सोर सुनेका छौ न उहाँको रूप नै कहिल्यै देखेका छौ ।

Furthermore, [my] Father, who sent me, tells people about me. You have never heard his voice or seen him.

38 तिमीहरूमा उहाँको वचन रहेको छैन, किनकि उहाँले पठाउनुभएकोलाई तिमीहरूले विश्‍वास गरिरहेका छैनौ ।

Furthermore, you have not believed in [me], the one he sent. So you have not [believed] his message in your inner beings.

39 तिमीहरू धर्मशास्‍त्रमा खोज्दछौ, किनकि तिनमा तिमीहरूको निम्ति अनन्त जीवन छ भन्‍ने सोच्दछौ र यी नै धर्मशास्‍त्रहरूले मेरो विषयमा गवाही दिन्छन्, (aiōnios g166)

You carefully study (OR, Study) the Scriptures, because you think that by [studying] them you will [find the way to] have eternal life. And those Scriptures tell people about me! (aiōnios g166)

40 र तिमीहरू जीवन पाउन मकहाँ आउन तत्पर छैनौ ।

But you refuse (to come to me/to believe my message) in order that you may have [eternal] life.

41 म मनिसहरूबाट प्रशंसा प्राप्‍त गर्दिनँ,

It does not [matter to] me whether people praise me.

42 तर म जान्दछु, तिमीहरू आफैँमा परमेश्‍वरको प्रेम छैन ।

But you [want people to praise you]. I know that within yourselves you do not love God.

43 म मेरा पिताको नाउँमा आएको छु, र तिमीहरू मलाई स्‍वीकार गर्दैनौ । यदि आफ्नै नाउँमा अर्को कोही आउने हो भने तिमीहरूले त्यसलाई स्वीकार गर्छौ ।

Although I have come to earth with my Father’s authority [MTY], you do not accept me. But if someone else comes with his own authority [MTY], you accept him!

44 एक अर्कोबाट प्रशंसा खोज्‍ने तर परमेश्‍वरबाट मात्र आउने प्रशंसा नखोज्‍नलाई तिमीहरूले कसरी विश्‍वास गर्न सक्छौ?

You accept your praising each other, but you do not try to do things that will result in God himself praising you. So (there is no way you can believe [in me]!/how can you believe [my message]?) [RHQ]

45 पिताको सामु तिमीहरूलाई म आफैँले दोष लगाउँछु भन्‍ने तिमीहरू नसोच । तिमीहरूले आशा राखेका मोशाले नै तिमीहरूलाई दोष लगाउँछन् ।

But do not think that I am the one who will accuse you while [my] Father is listening! No, it is Moses who will accuse you! You thought that he would [defend you].

46 यदि तिमीहरूले मोशामा विश्‍वास गर्थ्यौ भने तिमीहरूले ममा पनि विश्‍वास गर्ने थियौ, किनकि उनले मेरो विषयमा लेखे ।

Moses wrote about me, so if you had believed what he [wrote], you would have believed what I [said]

47 यदि तिमीहरूले उनले लेखेका कुराहरूमा विश्‍वास गर्दैनौ भने तिमीहरूले मेरो वचनमा कसरी विश्‍वास गर्छौ र?”

But because you did not believe what he wrote [about me], (you will certainly not believe what I say!/how will you believe what I say?) [RHQ]”
