< लुका 20 >

1 येशूले मन्दिरमा मानिसहरूलाई शिक्षा दिइरहनुहुँदा र सुसमाचार प्रचार गरिरहनुहुँदा, अगुवाहरूसहित मुख्य पुजारीहरू र शास्‍त्रीहरू येशूकहाँ आए ।
And it happened that, on one of the days when he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Gospel, the leaders of the priests, and the scribes, gathered together with the elders,
2 तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई भने, “हामीलाई बताऊ, कुन अधिकारद्वारा तिमी यी कामहरू गर्छौ? अथवा कसले तिमीलाई यो अधिकार दियो?”
and they spoke to him, saying: “Tell us, by what authority do you do these things? Or, who is it that has given you this authority?”
3 उहाँले जवाफ दिएर भन्‍नुभयो, “म पनि तिमीहरूलाई एउटा प्रश्‍न सोध्छु ।
And in response, Jesus said to them: “I will also question you about one word. Respond to me:
4 यूहन्‍नाको बप्‍तिस्‍माको बारेमा मलाई बताओ । यो स्वर्गबाट थियो कि मानिसहरूबाट?”
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?”
5 उनीहरूले आपसमा भने, “यदि हामीले स्वर्गबाट भन्यौँ भने उसले यसो भन्ला ‘त्यसो भए तिमीहरूले उनलाई किन विश्‍वास गरेनौ?’
So they discussed it among themselves, saying: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’
6 तर यदि हामीले मानिसबाट हो भन्यौँ भने, ‘सबै मानिसले हामीलाई ढुङ्गाले हान्‍नेछन्, किनभने उनीहरूले यूहन्‍नालाई अगमवक्‍ता हो भनी विश्‍वास गरेका छन्’ ।”
But if we say, ‘Of men,’ the whole people will stone us. For they are certain that John was a prophet.”
7 यसकारण तिनीहरूले यसो भनेर उत्तर दिए, “त्यो कहाँबाट भयो भनी हामीलाई थाहा छैन ।”
And so they responded that they did not know where it was from.
8 येशूले तिनीहरूले भन्‍नुभयो, “म पनि तिमीहरूलाई मैले कुन अधिकारले यी कामहरू गर्छु भनी बताउँदिनँ ।”
And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9 उहाँले मानिसहरूलाई यो दृष्‍टान्त भन्‍नुभयो, “एक जना मानिसले दाखबारी लगाएर कामदारहरूलाई जिम्मा दिएर आफू लामो समयको लागि अर्को देशमा गए ।
Then he began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, and he loaned it to settlers, and he was on a sojourn for a long time.
10 तोकिएको समयमा तिनीहरूले आफ्नो हिस्साको फल दिऊन् भनी तिनले आफ्नो एक जना नोकरलाई ती कामदारहरूकहाँ पठाए । तर ती कामदारहरूले त्यसलाई पिटेर रित्तो हात पठाइदिए ।
And in due time, he sent a servant to the farmers, so that they would give to him from the fruit of the vineyard. And they beat him and drove him away, empty-handed.
11 तिनले अझै अर्को नोकरलाई पठाए, तर तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई पनि पिटेर बेइज्‍जत गरी रित्तै हात पठाए ।
And he continued to send another servant. But beating him and treating him with contempt, they likewise sent him away, empty-handed.
12 तिनले तेस्रो नोकरलाई पनि पठाए, तर तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई पनि घाइते बनाएर निकाली दिए ।
And he continued to send a third. And wounding him also, they drove him away.
13 त्यसकारण, दाखबारीका मालिकले भने, ‘अब म के गरूँ? म आफ्नो प्यारो छोरालाई पठाउनेछु सायद उसलाई त तिनीहरूले आदर गर्लान् कि ।’
Then the lord of the vineyard said: ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. Perhaps when they have seen him, they will respect him.’
14 तर कामदारहरूले उसलाई देखेर आपसमा कुरा गरे, ‘यो त हकवाला हो । हामी यसलाई मारौँ र सम्पत्तिको हक हाम्रो हुनेछ ।’
And when the settlers had seen him, they discussed it among themselves, saying: ‘This one is the heir. Let us kill him, so that the inheritance will be ours.’
15 अनि तिनीहरूले उसलाई दाखबारीको बाहिर लगेर मारे । अब दाखबारीका मालिकले तिनीहरूलाई के गर्लान्?
And forcing him outside of the vineyard, they killed him. What, then, will the lord of the vineyard do to them?”
16 उनी आएर ती कामदारहरूलाई मार्नेछन् र दाखाबरी अरूहरूलाई दिनेछन् ।” यो सुनेर तिनीहरूले भने, “यस्तो कहिल्यै नहोस्!”
“He will come and destroy those settlers, and he will give the vineyard to others.” And upon hearing this, they said to him, “Let it not be.”
17 तर येशूले तिनीहरूलाई हेर्नुभयो र भन्‍नुभयो, “यो धर्मशास्‍त्रको भनाइको अर्थ के हो, ‘जुन ढुङ्गालाई भवन निर्माण गर्नेहरूले इन्कार गरे त्यही नै कुने-ढुङ्गो बन्यो?’
Then, gazing at them, he said: “Then what does this mean, which is written: ‘The stone which the builders have rejected, the same has become the head of the corner?’
18 त्यस ढुङ्गामाथि खस्‍ने हरेक चकनाचुर हुनेछ, तर जसमाथि त्यो खस्छ त्यसले त्यसलाई धुलोपिठो पार्नेछ ।”
Everyone who falls on that stone will be shattered. And anyone upon whom it falls will be crushed.”
19 त्यसकारण, शास्‍त्री र मुख्य पुजारीहरूले त्यति नै बेला उहाँलाई पक्रन खोजे । किनकि तिनीहरूलाई थाहा भयो कि उहाँले यो दृष्‍टान्त तिनीहरूकै विरुद्धमा भन्‍नुभएको थियो । तर तिनीहरू मानिसहरूसँग डराउँथे ।
And the leaders of the priests, and the scribes, were seeking to lay hands on him in that same hour, but they feared the people. For they realized that he had spoken this parable about them.
20 तिनीहरूले मौका हेर्न लागे र येशूले भन्‍नुभएको कुरामा केही गलत साबित भए उहाँलाई फसाएर अधिकारीहरूको हातमा सुम्पिदिने नियतले तिनीहरूले धर्मी भई टोपल्ने जासुसहरूलाई उहाँकहाँ पठाए ।
And being attentive, they sent traitors, who would pretend that they were just, so that they might catch him in his words and then hand him over to the power and authority of the procurator.
21 उनीहरूले उहाँलाई सोधे, “गुरुज्यू, हामी जान्दछौँ कि तपाईं ठिक बोल्नुहुन्छ र ठिक सिकाउनुहुन्छ र कसैको पक्षपात गर्नुहुन्‍न तर परमेश्‍वरको मार्गको सत्यता सिकाउनुहुन्छ ।
And they questioned him, saying: “Teacher, we know that you speak and teach correctly, and that you do not consider anyone’s status, but you teach the way of God in truth.
22 हामीले कैसरलाई कर तिर्नु उचित छ कि छैन?”
Is it lawful for us to pay the tribute to Caesar, or not?”
23 येशूले उनीहरूको धूर्त्याइँलाई बुझेर भन्‍नुभयो,
But realizing their deceitfulness, he said to them: “Why do you test me?
24 “मलाई एउटा सिक्‍का देखाओ, यसमा कसको नाम र चित्र खोपिएको छ?” उनीहरूले भने, “कैसरको ।”
Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription does it have?” In response, they said to him, “Caesar’s.”
25 उहाँले उनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “त्यसो भए जे कैसर को हो, कैसरलाई देओ र जे परमेश्‍वरको हो परमेश्‍वरलाई देओ ।”
And so, he said to them: “Then repay the things that are Caesar’s, to Caesar, and the things that are God’s, to God.”
26 मानिसहरूको सामुन्‍ने उहाँले बोल्नुभएका कुरामा शास्‍त्री र मुख्य पुजारीहरूले उहाँलाई फसाउन सकेनन् । उहाँको जवाफमा उनीहरू छक्‍क परे र केही पनि भन्‍न सकेनन् ।
And they were not able to contradict his word before the people. And being amazed at his answer, they were silent.
27 त्यसपछि मृतकहरूबाट पुनरुत्थान हुँदैन भन्‍ने सदूकीहरू उहाँकहाँ आए,
Now some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, approached him. And they questioned him,
28 र उहाँलाई सोधे, “गुरुज्यू, मोशाले हामीलाई लेखिदिएका थिए, कि कुनै मानिसको विवाहित दाजु निसन्तान भयो भने भाइले त्यसकी पत्‍नीलाई विवाह गरी दाजुको लागि सन्तान खडा गरिदिनुपर्छ ।
saying: “Teacher, Moses wrote for us: If any man’s brother will have died, having a wife, and if he does not have any children, then his brother should take her as his wife, and he should raise up offspring for his brother.
29 सात भाइ थिए । जेठोले एउटी पत्‍नी ल्यायो र निसन्तान मर्‍यो
And so there were seven brothers. And the first took a wife, and he died without sons.
30 अनि माहिलाले पनि त्यसलाई विवाह गर्‍यो र निसन्तान मर्‍यो ।
And the next one married her, and he also died without a son.
31 साहिँलाले पनि त्यसलाई विवाह गर्‍यो अनि त्यसरी नै ती सातै जना निसन्तान मरे ।
And the third married her, and similarly all seven, and none of them left behind any offspring, and they each died.
32 पछिबाट त्यो स्‍त्री पनि मरी ।
Last of all, the woman also died.
33 यसकारण, मृतकबाट पुनरुत्थान हुँदा त्यो स्‍त्री तिनीहरूमध्ये कसकी पत्‍नी हुनेछे? किनकि ती सातै जनाले त्यसलाई पत्‍नीको रूपमा लिएका थिए ।”
In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For certainly all seven had her as a wife.”
34 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “यस युगका मानिसहरू विवाह गर्छन् र विवाह गरेर पठाइन्छन् । (aiōn g165)
And so, Jesus said to them: “The children of this age marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
35 तर मृतकबाट जीवित भई उठ्न र अनन्त जीवन प्राप्‍त गर्न योग्य ठहरिनेहरूले न विवाह गर्दछन् न त विवाह गरेर पठाइन्छन् । (aiōn g165)
Yet truly, those who shall be held worthy of that age, and of the resurrection from the dead, will neither be married, nor take wives. (aiōn g165)
36 तिनीहरू फेरि मर्दैनन्, किनभने तिनीहरू स्वर्गदूत समान हुन् र पुनरुत्‍थानका सन्तान भएकाले परमेश्‍वरका सन्तान हुन् ।
For they can no longer die. For they are equal to the Angels, and they are children of God, since they are children of the resurrection.
37 तर मृतकहरू जीवित भई उठ्नेछन् भन्‍नेकुरा मोशाले पनि पोथ्राको विवरणमा परमप्रभुलाई अब्राहामका परमेश्‍वर, इसहाकका परमेश्‍वर र याकूबका परमेश्‍वर भनेर पुकार्दा देखाइदिए ।
For in truth, the dead do rise again, as Moses also showed beside the bush, when he called the Lord: ‘The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38 उहाँ मृतकहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्‍न, तर जीवितहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ, किनकि सबै उहाँकै निम्ति जिउँछन् ।”
And so he is not the God of the dead, but of the living. For all are alive to him.”
39 अनि शास्‍त्रीहरूमध्ये कुनै-कुनैले भने, “गुरुज्यू, तपाईंले सही जवाफ दिनुभयो ।”
Then some of the scribes, in response, said to him, “Teacher, you have spoken well.”
40 उनीहरू कसैले पनि उहाँलाई फेरि प्रश्‍न सोध्‍ने आँट गरेनन् ।
And they no longer dared to question him about anything.
41 येशूले उनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “ख्रीष्‍ट दाऊदका पुत्र हुन् भनेर तिनीहरूले कसरी भन्दछन्?
But he said to them: “How can they say that the Christ is the son of David?
42 किनकि भजनको पुस्तकमा दाऊद आफैँले भन्दछन्, परमप्रभुले मेरा प्रभुलाई भन्‍नुभयो, ‘तिमी मेरो दाहिने हातपट्टि बस,
Even David himself says, in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand,
43 जबसम्म म तिम्रा शत्रुहरूलाई तिम्रो पाउदान तुल्याउँदिनँ ।’
until I set your enemies as your footstool.’
44 यसकारण, दाऊदले ख्रीष्‍टलाई प्रभु भन्दछन् भने फेरि उनी कसरी दाऊदका पुत्र भए?”
Therefore, David calls him Lord. So how can he be his son?”
45 सबै मानिसहरूले सुन्‍ने गरी उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो,
Now in the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples:
46 “शास्‍त्रीहरूदेखि होसियार रहो जो लामा वस्‍त्रहरूमा सजिएर बजारमा अभिवादन गरिएको मन पराउँछन् अनि सभाघर र भोजहरूमा प्रमुख स्थान चाहन्छन् ।
“Be cautious of the scribes, who choose to walk in long robes, and who love greetings in the marketplace, and the first chairs in the synagogues, and the first places at table during feasts,
47 तिनीहरूले विधवाहरूको घर हडप्छन् र लामो-लामो प्रार्थना गरेर देखाउँछन् । तिनीहरूले नै अझै ठुलो दण्ड पाउनेछन् ।”
who devour the houses of widows, feigning long prayers. These will receive the greater damnation.”
