< लुका 23 >
1 तिनीहरूका सबै दल उठे, र येशूलाई पिलातसका सामु ल्याए ।
The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.
2 तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई यसो भन्दै दोष लगाउन सुरु गरे, “हामीले यस मानिसलाई हाम्रो देश भाँड्दै गरेको, कैसरलाई कर तिर्न मनाही गरेको र ऊ आफैँलाई ख्रीष्ट राजा भनेको भेट्टायौँ ।”
They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”
3 पिलातसले उहाँलाई यसो भन्दै सोधे, “के तिमी यहूदीहरूका राजा हौ?” येशूले तिनलाई जवाफ दिनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “तपाईंले नै त्यसो भन्दै हुनुहुन्छ ।”
Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”
4 पिलातसले मुख्य पुजारीहरू र भिडलाई भने, “यी मानिसमा म कुनै पनि दोष भेट्टाउँदिनँ ।”
Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”
5 तर तिनीहरूले जबरजस्ती भनिरहेका थिए, “यसले गालीलबाट सुरु गरेर सारा यहूदाभरि यस ठाँउसम्म मानिसहरूलाई भड्काउँदै छ ।”
But they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”
6 त्यसकारण जब पिलातसले यो सुने, तब उनले उहाँ गालीली हुनुहुन्थ्यो कि भनी सोधे ।
But when Pilate heard Galilee mentioned, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
7 जब उनले उहाँ त हेरोदको अधिकारमुनि हुनुहुन्छ भन्ने थाहा पाए, उनले येशूलाई हेरोदकहाँ पठाए जो ती दिनहरूमा यरूशलेममा नै थिए ।
When he found out that he was in Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.
8 जब हेरोदले येशूलाई देखे, उनी धेरै खुसी भए, किनकि उनले उहाँलाई धेरै अगाडिदेखि हेर्ने इच्छा गरेका थिए । उनले उहाँको बारेमा धेरै कुराहरू सुनेका थिए र उहाँद्वारा केही आश्चर्यकर्महरू गरिएको हेर्न चाहन्थे ।
Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.
9 हेरोदले येशूलाई धेरै शब्दहरूमा प्रश्न गरे, तर येशूले उनलाई कुनै पनि जवाफ दिनुभएन ।
He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.
10 मुख्य पुजारीहरू र शास्त्रीहरूले येशूलाई जोड्दार दोष लगाउँदै उभिएका भए ।
The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.
11 हेरोदले आफ्ना सिपाहीहरूसँग मिली उहाँको अपमान गरे र उहाँलाई गिल्ला गरे अनि असल पोशाक पहिर्याएर येशूलाई पिलातसकहाँ फर्काइदिए ।
Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.
12 हेरोद र पिलातस त्यसै दिनदेखि एक-अर्कासँग साथी भए (त्यस अगि उनीहरू शत्रु थिए) ।
Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.
13 तब पिलातसले मुख्य पुजारीहरू र शासकहरू र मानिसहरूका भिडलाई बोलाए,
Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,
14 र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले यी मानिसलाई खराब काम गर्न मानिसहरूलाई अगुवाइ गर्ने व्यक्तिको रूपमा मकहाँ ल्यायौ, र हेर, तिमीहरूकै सामुन्ने यी मानिसलाई मैले प्रश्न गरेँ । तर तिमीहरूले लगाएको आरोपको दोष मैले यी मानिसमा भेट्टाइनँ ।”
and said to them, “You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and behold, having examined him before you, I found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.
15 हेरोदले पनि दोषी भेट्टाएनन्, किनकि उनले हामीकहाँ फिर्ता पठाए । र हेर, यिनले मृत्युदण्ड पाउनेयोग्य कुनै काम गरेका छैनन् ।
Neither has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
16 यसकारण म यिनलाई सजाय दिनेछु र छोडिदिन्छु ।”
I will therefore chastise him and release him.”
17 अब चाडको समयमा पिलातसले यहूदीका निम्ति एक जना कैदीलाई छोडिदिनुपर्थ्यो ।
Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.
18 तर तिनीहरू एकैसाथ कराउँदै यसो भने, “यस मानिसलाई हाम्रा बिचबाट हटाउनुहोस् र हाम्रा निम्ति बारब्बालाई छोडिदिनुहोस् ।”
But they all cried out together, saying, “Away with this man! Release to us Barabbas!”—
19 बारब्बा सहरमा विद्रोह र हत्याको कारण गर्दा झ्यालखानमा राखिएको एक मानिस थिए ।
one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.
20 येशूलाई छोड्ने इच्छा गरी फेरि पिलातसले तिनीहरूलाई सम्बोधन गरे ।
Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,
21 तर तिनीहरूले चिच्च्याउँदै यसो भने, “त्यसलाई क्रुसमा झुन्ड्याओ, क्रुसमा झुन्ड्याओ ।”
but they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify him!”
22 पिलातसले तेस्रो पटक तिनीहरूलाई भने, “किन, यो मानिसले के दुष्ट काम गरेको छ र? मैले यिनमा मृत्युदण्ड दिने कुनै दोष पाइनँ । यसकारण, यसलाई सजाय दिएर छोडिदिन्छु ।”
He said to them the third time, “Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him.”
23 तर तिनीहरू उच्च स्वरमा येशूलाई क्रुसमा टाँग्ने माग गर्दै लागि परे । र पिलातसलाई उनीहरूका आवाजले विश्वस्त तुल्यायो ।
But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief priests prevailed.
24 त्यसकारण, पिलातसले उनीहरूका माग पुरा गरिदिने निर्णय गरे ।
Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.
25 त्यसैले तिनीहरूले माग गरेअनुसार पिलातसले बारब्बालाई छोडिदिए जसद्वारा सहरमा हत्या र आतङ्क भएको थियो, तर येशूलाई तिनीहरूको इच्छाअनुसार सुम्पिदिए ।
He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus up to their will.
26 तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई टाढा लजाँदै गर्दा गाउँबाट आउँदै गरेको कुरेनीका सिमोनलाई समातेर येशूलाई पछ्याउदै उहाँको क्रुस बोक्न लगाए ।
When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry it after Jesus.
27 मानिसहरूको एउटा ठुलो भिड, उहाँका लागि विलाप गर्ने र दुःखित हुने स्त्रीहरूले पनि उहाँलाई पछ्याइरहेका थिए ।
A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.
28 तर तिनीहरूतिर फर्केर येशूले भन्नुभयो, “यरूशलेमका छोरीहरू हो, मेरो लागि नरोऊ, तर आफ्नै निम्ति र आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरूका निम्ति रोओ ।
But Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
29 किनभने हेर, दिनहरू आउँदै छन् र तिनीहरूले भन्नेछन्, ‘हे बाँझीहरू, नजन्माउने कोखहरू, दूध नचुसाउने स्तनहरू धन्यका हुन् ।’
For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.’
30 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले पहाडहरूलाई भन्न थाल्नेछन्, ‘हामीमाथि खस,’ र डाँडाहरूलाई भन्नेछन्, ‘हामीलाई छोप ।’
Then they will begin to tell the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and tell the hills, ‘Cover us.’
31 यदि रुख हरियो हुँदै तिनीहरूले यस्ता कुराहरू गर्छन् भने, सुख्खा हुँदा के गर्लान्?”
For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”
32 उहाँसँगै अरू दुई जना अपराधीलाई पनि मृत्युदण्ड दिनलाई लगिएको थियो ।
There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.
33 जब तिनीहरू खप्परे भन्ने ठाँउमा आए, त्यहाँ तिनीहरूले उहाँ र ती अपराधीहरूमध्ये एउटालाई उहाँको दायाँतर्फ र अर्कालाई बायाँतर्फ क्रुसमा टाँगे ।
When they came to the place that is called “The Skull”, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.
34 येशूले भन्नुभयो, “हे पिता, तिनीहरूलाई क्षमा गर्नुहोस्, किनभने तिनीहरूले के गर्दै छन् सो जान्दैनन् ।” र तिनीहरूले उहाँका वस्त्रहरू भाग गर्नलाई चिट्ठा हाले ।
Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.
35 मानिसहरूले उभिएर हेरिरहेका थिए, जहाँ शासकहरूले पनि उहाँलाई यसो भन्दै गिल्ला हेरिरहेका थिए, “यो परमेश्वरको चुनिएको ख्रीष्ट हो भने यसले अरूलाई त बचायो, अब आफैँलाई बचाओस् ।”
The people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen one!”
36 अनि सिपाहीहरूले पनि सिर्का दिँदै यसो भनी गिल्ला गरे,
The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,
37 “यदि तिमी यहूदीहरूका राजा हौ भने, आफैँलाई बचाओ ।”
and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”
38 “यो यहूदीहरूका राजा हो भनी” त्यहाँ उहाँको माथि एउटा चिह्न पनि थियो ।
An inscription was also written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
39 क्रुसमा टाँगिएको एक जना अपराधीले उहाँको गिल्ला गर्दै यसो भन्यो, “के तिमी ख्रीष्ट होइनौ? हामीलाई र आफैँलाई बचाऊ ।”
One of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!”
40 तर अर्कोले त्यसलाई हप्काउँदै जवाफ दियो, “के तँ परमेश्वरको डर मान्दैनस्, तँ आफैँ यस्तो अवस्थामा छस्?
But the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Do not you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?
41 हामी वास्तवमा यहाँ न्यायोचित रूपले छौँ, हामीले हाम्रो कामको उचित परिणाम पाइरहेका छौँ । तर यी मानिसले त कुनै गल्ती काम गरेका छैनन् ।”
And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.”
42 र उसले थप्यो, “येशू, तपाईं आफ्नो राज्यमा आउनुहुँदा, मलाई सम्झनुहोस् ।”
He said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”
43 येशूले त्यसलाई भन्नुभयो, “साँच्चै म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, आजै तिमी मसँगै स्वर्गलोकमा हुनेछौ ।”
Jesus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”
44 यो छैठौँ घडीको बेला थियो, र नवौँ घडीसम्म सारा देशभरि अन्धकारले ढाक्यो ।
It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
45 सूर्यले प्रकाश दिन छोड्यो । त्यसपछि मन्दिरको पर्दा बिचबाट च्यातियो ।
The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.
46 येशूले उच्च स्वरमा कराएर भन्नुभयो, “हे पिता, म मेरो आत्मा तपाईंको हातमा सुम्पन्छु । यसो भनेर उहाँले प्राण त्याग्नुभयो ।”
Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having said this, he breathed his last.
47 जब कप्तानले जे भइरहेको थियो सो देखे, उनले यसो भन्दै परमेश्वरको महिमा गरे, “निश्चय नै यिनी एक धार्मिक मानिस थिए ।”
When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous man.”
48 यस ठाउँमा आएका सबै भिडले त्यहाँ भएका घटनाहरूलाई देखेपछि तिनीहरू आफ्नो छाती पिट्दै फर्के ।
All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their chests.
49 तर उहाँका चिनाजानीका मानिसहरू र गालीलबाट उहाँलाई पछ्याउने स्त्रीहरू टाढै उभिएर यी कुराहरू हेरिरहेका थिए ।
All his acquaintances and the women who followed with him from Galilee stood at a distance, watching these things.
50 हेर, त्यहाँ एक जना योसेफ नाउँ गरेका मानिस थिए । तिनी महासभाका सदस्य थिए, जो एक असल र धार्मिक मानिस थिए ।
Behold, there was a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man
51 (उनी तिनीहरूका निर्णय र क्रियाकलापसँग सहमत थिएनन्), उनी यहूदिया सहर अरिमाथियाका थिए, जसले परमेश्वरको राज्यको प्रतीक्षा गरिरहेका थिए ।
(he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was also waiting for God’s Kingdom.
52 यी मानिसले पिलातसकहाँ गएर येशूको शरीर मागे ।
This man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.
53 उनले तल लगे र सफा मलमलको कपडामा बेह्रेर चट्टानमा कपेर बनाइएको चिहानमा राखे, जहाँ कहिल्यै कसैलाई राखिएको थिएन ।
He took it down and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.
54 यो तयारीको दिन थियो, र विश्राम दिन सुरु हुनै लागेको थियो ।
It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.
55 गालीलदेखि पछ्याउँदै आएका स्त्रीहरूले पनि चिहानमा उहाँको शरीर कसरी राखिएको थियो, त्यसलाई हेरे ।
The women who had come with him out of Galilee followed after, and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.
56 तिनीहरू फर्के र सुगन्धित द्रव्य र अत्तरहरू तयार पारे । त्यसपछि आज्ञाअनुसार विश्राम दिनमा तिनीहरूले विश्राम गरे ।
They returned and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
