लुका 19
1 येशू यरीहोमा प्रवेश गरेर त्यहाँबाट जाँदै हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
And he went into Jericho, and when he was going through it,
2 हेर, त्यहाँ जखायस नाउँ गरेका एक जना मानिस थिए । उनी कर उठनेहरूका मुख्य र धनी मानिस थिए ।
A man, named Zacchaeus, who was the chief tax-farmer, and a man of wealth,
3 उनले येशू को हुनुहुन्छ भनी हेर्न कोसिस गरिरहेका थिए, तर भिडको कारणले गर्दा हेर्न सकेनन्, किनकि उनी होचा थिए ।
Made an attempt to get a view of Jesus, and was not able to do so, because of the people, for he was a small man.
4 त्यसैले उनी भिडका मानिसहरूभन्दा अगाडि दौडे र उहाँलाई हेर्नको लागि नेभाराको रुखमा चढे, किनभने येशू त्यही बाटो भएर जाँदै हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
And he went quickly in front of them and got up into a tree to see him, for he was going that way.
5 जब येशू उनी भएको ठाउँ नजिक आइपुग्नुभयो, उहाँले मास्तिर हेरेर भन्नुभयो, “जखायस छिटो ओर्ली आऊ, किनकि आज मलाई तिम्रो घरमा बस्नु छ ।”
And when Jesus came to the place, looking up, he said to him, Zacchaeus, be quick and come down, for I am coming to your house today.
6 त्यसैले उनी हतार-हतार ओर्ली आए र उहाँलाई खुसीसाथ स्वागत गरे ।
And he came down quickly, and took him into his house with joy.
7 जब तिनीहरू सबैले यो देखे, तब उनीहरूले यसो भन्दै गनगन गर्न थाले, “उहाँ पापी मानिसकहाँ बस्नको लागि जानुभयो ।”
And when they saw it, they were all angry, saying, He has gone into the house of a sinner.
8 जखायस खडा भएर भने, “हेर्नुहोस् प्रभु, मसँग भएका जे-जति छन् त्यसको आधा म गरिबहरूलाई दिनेछु र यदि मैले कसैलाई ठगेर कसैबाट केही कुरा लिएको छु भने त्यसको चार गुणा फिर्ता दिनेछु ।”
And Zacchaeus, waiting before him, said to the Lord, See, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken anything from anyone wrongly, I give him back four times as much.
9 येशूले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “आज यो घरमा मुक्ति आएको छ, किनकि यिनी पनि अब्राहामका पुत्र हुन् ।
And Jesus said to him, Today salvation has come to this house, for even he is a son of Abraham.
10 किनकि मानिसका पुत्र हराएकाहरूलाई खोज्न र बचाउनको लागि आएका हुन् ।”
For the Son of man came to make search for those who are wandering from the way, and to be their Saviour.
11 तिनीहरूले यी कुरा सुन्दै गर्दा, उहाँले अर्को दृष्टान्त पनि भन्नुभयो, किनभने तिनीहरू यरूशलेमको नजिक थिए र तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरको राज्य तुरुन्तै देखा पर्न लागेको छ भन्ने सोचेका थिए ।
And while they were giving ear to these words, he made another story for them, because he was near Jerusalem, and because they were of the opinion that the kingdom of God was coming straight away.
12 त्यसकारण, उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “एउटा भलादमी मानिस आफ्नो राज्य प्राप्त गर्नको निम्ति एउटा टाढा देशमा गएर फर्की आउनलाई गए ।
So he said, A certain man of high birth went into a far-away country to get a kingdom for himself, and to come back.
13 उनले आफ्ना दस जना नोकरलाई बोलाए र तिनीहरूलाई दस सिक्का दिँदै भने, ‘म फर्की नआउँदासम्म यसलाई व्यापारमा लगाओ ।’
And he sent for ten of his servants and gave them ten pounds and said to them, Do business with this till I come.
14 तर उनका मानिसहरूले घृणा गर्दै यसो भन्ने सन्देश दिएर दूतहरू पठाए, ‘यो मानिसले हामीमाथि शासन गरेको हामी चाहँदैनौँ ।’
But his people had no love for him, and sent representatives after him, saying, We will not have this man for our ruler.
15 तब राज्य प्राप्त गरी फर्केर आएपछि उनले सिक्का पाएका नोकरहरूलाई बोलाए र तिनीहरूले व्यापारबाट कति आर्जन गरे भनेर जान्ने इच्छा गरे ।
And when he came back again, having got his kingdom, he gave orders for those servants to whom he had given the money to come to him, so that he might have an account of what business they had done.
16 पहिलो नोकर उनको अगाडि आयो र भन्यो, ‘मालिक, मैले तपाईंको सिक्काबाट अरू दस सिक्का कमाएँ ।’
And the first came before him, saying, Lord, your pound has made ten pounds.
17 ती भलादमी मानिसले त्यसलाई भने, ‘स्याबास, असल नोकर । तिमी धेरै सानो कुरामा विश्वासयोग्य भयौ, त्यसकारण तिमीले दसवटा सहर अधिकार गर्नेछौ ।’
And he said to him, You have done well, O good servant: because you have done well in a small thing you will have authority over ten towns.
18 दोस्रो नोकर आयो र भन्यो, ‘मालिक, तपाईंको सिक्काबाट मैले पाँच सिक्का कमाएँ ।’
And another came, saying, Your pound has made five pounds.
19 ती भलादमी मानिसले त्यस नोकरलाई भने, ‘तिमीले पाँचवटा सहरमा राज्य गर्नेछौ ।’
And he said, You will be ruler over five towns.
20 अनि अर्को नोकर आयो र भन्यो, ‘मालिक, तपाईंको सिक्का यहाँ छ, जसलाई मैले कपडाभित्र सुरक्षितसाथ राखेको थिएँ ।
And another came, saying, Lord, here is your pound, which I put away in a cloth;
21 किनकि म डराएँ, किनभने तपाईं कठोर मानिस हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले जे राख्नुभएको छैन, त्यो कुरा लिनुहुन्छ र जे छर्नुभएको छैन, त्यही कटनी गर्नुहुन्छ ।’
Because I was in fear of you, for you are a hard man: you take up what you have not put down, and get in grain where you have not put seed.
22 ती भलादमी मानिसले त्यसलाई भने, ‘तँ दुष्ट नोकर, म तँलाई तेरो आफ्नै वचनले न्याय गर्नेछु । जहाँ राखेको छैन त्यहाँबाट लिन खोज्ने र जहाँ छरेको छैन त्यहाँबाट कटनी गर्न खोज्ने म कठोर मानिस हुँ भनी तँलाई थाहा थियो ।
He said to him, By the words of your mouth you will be judged, you bad servant. You had knowledge that I am a hard man, taking up what I have not put down and getting in grain where I have not put seed;
23 त्यसो भए, तैँले मेरो सिक्का किन बैङ्कमा राखिनस्, ताकि फर्की आउँदा ब्याजसहित मैले यो रकम पाउने थिएँ?’
Why then did you not put my money in a bank, so that when I came I would get it back with interest?
24 ती भलादमी मानिसले त्यहाँ उभिएका मानिसहरूलाई भने, ‘योसँग भएको सिक्का खोसेर जससँग दस सिक्का छ, त्यसलाई देओ ।’
And he said to the others who were near, Take the pound away from him, and give it to the man who has ten.
25 तिनीहरूले उसलाई भने, ‘मालिक उसँग त दस सिक्का छ ।’
And they say to him, Lord, he has ten pounds.
26 ‘म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, जससँग छ त्यसलाई अझ धेरै दिइने छ, तर जोसँग छैन, त्यससँग भएको पनि खोसिनेछ ।
And I say to you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
27 तर, मैले तिनीहरूमाथि शासन गरेको नचाहने मेरा यी शत्रुहरूलाई यहाँ ल्याओ र मेरो अगाडि मार’ ।”
And as for those who were against me, who would not have me for their ruler, let them come here, and be put to death before me.
28 यी कुराहरू भनिसक्नुभएपछि, उहाँ यरूशलेमतिर जानुभयो ।
And when he had said this, he went on in front of them, going up to Jerusalem.
29 बेथफागे र बेथानियाबाट जैतून भनिने डाँडा नजिक पुग्नुभएपछि उहाँले आफना दुई जना चेलालाई यसो भनेर पठाउनुभयो,
And it came about that when he got near Beth-phage and Bethany by the mountain which is named the Mountain of Olives, he sent two of the disciples,
30 “नजिकैको गाउँमा जाओ । त्यहाँ पस्दै गर्दा, तिमीहरूले कोही पनि नचढेको एउटा बछेडो भेट्टाउनेछौ । त्यसलाई फुकाओ र मकहाँ ल्याओ ।
Saying, Go into the little town in front of you, and on going in you will see a young ass fixed with a cord, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose and take him.
31 यदि कसैले तिमीहरूलाई, ‘यसलाई किन फुकाउँदै छौ?’ भनेर सोध्यो भने यसो भन्नू, ‘प्रभुलाई यसको खाँचो छ’ ।”
And if anyone says to you, Why are you taking him? say, The Lord has need of him.
32 पठाइएकाहरू गए र तिनीहरूले येशूले भन्नुभएजस्तै बछेडो पाए ।
And those whom he sent went away, and it was as he said.
33 तिनीहरूले बछेडालाई फुकाल्दै गर्दा, त्यसका मालिकले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले यस बछेडालाई किन फुकाउँदै छौ?”
And when they were getting the young ass, the owners of it said to them, Why are you taking the young ass?
34 तिनीहरूले भने, “प्रभुलाई यसको खाँचो छ ।”
And they said, The Lord has need of him.
35 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई येशूकहाँ ल्याए र तिनीहरूले त्यस बछेडामाथि आफ्ना कपडाहरू राखे र त्यसमाथि येशूलाई बसाले ।
And they took him to Jesus, and they put their clothing on the ass, and Jesus got on to him.
36 उहाँ जाँदै गर्नुहुँदा, तिनीहरूले बाटोमा कपडा ओछ्याए ।
And while he went on his way they put their clothing down on the road in front of him.
37 उहाँ जैतून डाँडाको ओरालोको नजिकै आइपुग्नुहुँदा, उहाँका चेलाहरूको ठुलो भिडले उहाँले गर्नुभएका शक्तिशाली कार्यहरू देखेको कारण आनन्दित हुँदै चर्को स्वरले परमेश्वरको प्रशंसा गर्न लागे ।
And when he came near the foot of the Mountain of Olives, all the disciples with loud voices gave praise to God with joy, because of all the great works which they had seen;
38 तिनीहरूले यसो भन्न लागे, “परमप्रभुको नाउँमा आउने राजा धन्यका हुन्! स्वर्गमा शान्ति र सर्वोच्चमा महिमा!”
Saying, A blessing on the King who comes in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven and glory in the highest.
39 त्यो भिडमा भएका केही फरिसीहरूले उहाँलाई यसो भने, “गुरुज्यू, तपाईंका चेलाहरू चुप बसून् भनी हप्काउनुहोस् ।”
And some of the Pharisees among the people said to him, Master, make your disciples be quiet.
40 येशूले जवाफ दिँदै भन्नुभयो, “म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, तिनीहरू चुप लागे भने, यी ढुङ्गाहरू नै कराउनेछन् ।”
And he said in answer, I say to you, if these men keep quiet, the very stones will be crying out.
41 जब येशू सहरको नजिक पुग्नुभयो, उहाँ त्यसलाई देखेर यसो भन्दै रुनुभयो,
And when he got near and saw the town, he was overcome with weeping for it,
42 “यदि तैँले यो दिनको बारेमा थाहा पाएको भए, तँलाई शान्ति दिने कुरालाई जानेको भए! तर अहिले यी कुराहरू तेरो नजरबाट लुकाइएका छन् ।
Saying, If you, even you, had knowledge today, of the things which give peace! but you are not able to see them.
43 किनकि तेरो लागि यस्ता दिनहरू आउनेछन्, जब तेरा शत्रुहरूले तेरो विरुद्धमा वरिपरि पर्खाल निर्माण गर्नेछन् र तँलाई घेर्नेछन् र चारैतिरबाट आक्रमण गर्नेछन् ।
For the time will come when your attackers will put a wall round you, and come all round you and keep you in on every side,
44 तिनीहरूले तँलाई र तेरा सन्तानलाई आक्रमण गरेर लडाउनेछन्; तिनीहरूले एउटा ढुङ्गामाथि अर्को ढुङ्गा छोड्नेछैनन्, किनभने परमेश्वरले तँलाई बचाउनका लागि गर्नुभएका प्रयत्नलाई तैँले बुझिनस् ।
And will make you level with the earth, and your children with you; and there will not be one stone resting on another in you, because you did not see that it was your day of mercy.
45 येशू मन्दिरभित्र छिर्नुभयो र त्यहाँ व्यापार गरिरहेका मानिसहरूलाई यसो भन्दै खेद्नुभयो,
And he went into the Temple and put out those who were trading there,
46 “यसो लेखिएको छ, ‘मेरो घर प्रार्थनाको घर हुनेछ,’ तर तिमीहरूले त यसलाई डाँकुहरूको अड्डा बनाएका छौ ।”
Saying to them, It has been said, My house is to be a house of prayer, but you have made it a hole of thieves.
47 येशूले मन्दिरमा दिनहुँ शिक्षा सिकाउनुहुन्थ्यो । मुख्य पुजारीहरू, शास्त्रीहरू र धार्मिक अगुवाहरूले उहाँलाई मार्न चाहन्थे ।
And every day he was teaching in the Temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people were attempting to put him to death;
48 तर तिनीहरूले त्यसो गर्ने कुनै उपाय भेट्टाउन सकेनन्, किनभने मानिसहरूले उहाँको वचन ध्यानसित सुनिरहेका थिए ।
But they were not able to do anything, because the people all kept near him, being greatly interested in his words.
