< लुका 7 >

1 सुनिरहेका मानिसहरूलाई सबै कुरा भनेर सक्‍नुभएपछि येशू कफर्नहुममा प्रवेश गर्नुभयो ।
And when he had ended all his sayings in the hearing of the people, he went into Capernaum.
2 एउटा कप्‍तानको दास जो उनका लागि अति नै महत्त्वपूर्ण थियो, ऊ साह्रै बिरामी भएर मर्नै आँटेको थियो ।
And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die.
3 तर उनले येशूको बारेमा सुनेको हुनाले कप्‍तानले यहूदीहरूका धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई येशूकहाँ गएर उहाँ आएर आफ्नो दासलाई मर्नदेखि बचाइ दिनुहोस् भनी पठायो ।
But when he heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, and besought him to come and save his servant.
4 जब तिनीहरू येशूको नजिक आए, तब तिनीहरूले उहाँसँग यसो भन्दै बिन्ती गरे, तिनी योग्यका छन् यो तिनका निम्ति तपाईंले गरिदिनुहोस् ।
And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying: He is worthy for whom thou shouldst do this;
5 किनकि उनले हाम्रा जातिहरूलाई प्रेम गर्छन् र उनी तिनै नै हुन् जसले हाम्रा लागि सभाघर पनि निर्माण गरिदिएका छन् ।”
for he loves our nation, and of his own accord has built us a synagogue.
6 त्यसैले, येशू तिनीहरूसँगै सरासर बाटो लाग्‍नुभयो । तर उहाँ घरबाट धेरै टाढा नहुँदै कप्‍तानले साथीहरू पठाएर उहाँलाई यसो भन्‍न लगाए, “प्रभु तपाईंले आफैँलाई दुःख नदिनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईं मेरो घरभित्र प्रवेश गर्न योग्यको छैनँ ।
And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, and said to him: Lord, give thyself no trouble; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof.
7 यही कारणले मैले आफैँलाई तपाईंकहाँ आउने प्रर्याप्‍त योग्यको ठानिनँ, तर वचन बोली दिनुहोस् र मेरो दास निको हुनेछ ।
For which reason, neither did I count myself worthy to go to thee; but command in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
8 किनकि म पनि एउटा अधिकार पाएको मानिस हुँ र मेरोमुनि सिपाहीहरू छन् । मैले एउटलाई जा भन्छु र त्यो जान्छ र अर्कोलाई आइज भन्छु र त्यो आउँछ र मेरो दासलाई ‘यसो गर भन्छु, ‘त्यसले त्यो गर्छ ।”
For I am a man placed under authority, and have soldiers under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
9 जब येशूले त्यो सुन्‍नुभयो, उहाँ अचम्मित हुनुभयो र भिडतिर फर्केर उनलाई देखाउँदै भन्‍नुभयो, “म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि इस्राएलमा पनि मैले कसैमा यस्तो विश्‍वास भेट्टाएको छैन ।”
And when Jesus heard these things, he was filled with admiration for him; and, turning to the multitude that followed, he said: I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found so great faith.
10 तब ती पठाइएका मानिसहरू घरमा फर्केर आए र दासलाई स्वस्थ अवस्थामा भेट्टाए ।
And they that had been sent, returned to the house, and found the servant that had been sick restored to health.
11 त्यसको केही समयपछि येशू नाइन भन्‍ने सहरमा यात्रा गरिरहनुभएको थियो । मानिसहरूको एउटा ठुलो भिडसँगै उहाँका चेलाहरू पनि उहाँसँगै थिए ।
And it came to pass, the next day, that he was going to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples and a great multitude followed him.
12 जब उहाँ सहरको मूल ढोकानजिक पुग्‍नुभयो, त्यहाँ एउटा मृत मानिसलाई बोकेर ल्याइएको थियो । त्यो उसकी आमाको एक मात्र छोरो थियो । तिनी एउटी विधवा थिइन् र सहरबाट आएको एउटा भिड तिनीसँगै थियो ।
And when he came near the gate of tho city, behold, they were carrying out a dead man, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a great multitude from the city was with her.
13 तिनलाई देखेर प्रभु तिनीप्रति अति नै दयाले भरिनुभयो र तिनलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “नरोऊ ।”
And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her: Weep not.
14 तब उहाँ अगाडि आउनुभयो र मृतकलाई छुनुभयो र शरीरलाई बोक्‍नेहरू टक्‍क अडिए । उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “जवान मानिस, म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, उठ ।”
And he went and touched the bier; and those who were carrying it, stood still. And he said: Young man, I say to you, Arise.
15 मृत मानिस उठ्यो र बोल्न थाल्यो । तब येशूले उसलाई उसकी आमालाई सुम्पनुभयो ।
And he that had been dead, sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
16 तब तिनीहरू सबै डराए । तिनीहरूले यसो भन्दै परमेश्‍वरको प्रशंसा गरिरहे, “हाम्रा बिचमा एउटा महान् अगमवक्‍ता खडा भएका छन् र परमेश्‍वरले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई हेर्नुभएको छ ।”
And fear seized on all; and they glorified God, saying: A great prophet has arisen among us; and, God has visited his people.
17 येशूले गर्नुभएका यस कार्यको खबर सारा यहूदियाभरि र सबै छिमेकी इलाकाहरूमा चारैतिर फैलियो ।
And this report concerning him went abroad into all Judea and all the neighboring region.
18 यूहन्‍नाका चेलाहरूले उहाँलाई यी सबै कुराहरूको बारेमा बताइदिए ।
And the disciples of John told him of all these things.
19 तब यूहन्‍नाले आफ्ना दुई जना चेलाहरूलाई बोलाएर प्रभुकहाँ यसो भनी पठाए, “के हामीले खोजी राखेको आउनेवाला व्यक्‍ति तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ वा अर्को कुनै छ?
And John called to him two of his disciples, and sent them to Jesus, and said: Art thou he that was to come, or must we look for another?
20 जब तिनीहरू येशूको नजिक गए, तब तिनीहरूले यसो भने, बप्‍तिस्‍मा-दिने यूहन्‍नाले हामीलाई तपाईंकहाँ यसो भनी पठाए, “के हामीले खोजी राखेको आउनेवाला व्यक्‍ति तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ वा अर्को कुनै छ?”
And the men came to him and said: John the Immerser has sent us to thee, and says, Art thou he that was to come, or must we look for another?
21 त्यस घडीमा उहाँले धेरै मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका रोग, दुःखकष्‍ट र दुष्‍टात्माबाट निको पार्नुभयो र उहाँले धेरै दृष्‍टिविहीन मानिसहरूलाई देख्‍न सक्‍ने क्षमता दिनुभयो ।
And in that very hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits, and bestowed sight on many that were blind.
22 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिएर भन्‍नुभयो, “तिमीहरू आफ्नो बाटो लागिसकेपछि तिमीहरूले जे सुनेका र देखेका छौ, सो यूहन्‍नालाई बताइदेओ । दृष्‍टिविहीनहरूले दृष्‍टि पाइराखेका छन्, लङ्गडाहरू हिँडिराखेका छन्, कुष्‍ठरोगीहरू शुद्ध भइराखेका छन्, कान नसुन्‍नेहरूले सुनिराखेका छन्, मृतकहरू जीवित भइराखेका छन् र आवश्यकतामा परेका मानिसहरूलाई सुसमाचार सुनाइएको छ ।
And Jesus answered and said to them: Go and tell John what you have seen and heard; that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them;
23 मेरो क्रियाकलापको कारणले मलाई विश्‍वास गर्न नछोड्ने त्यो मानिस धन्यको हो ।
and blessed is he who shall find no cause of offense in me.
24 यूहन्‍नाका समाचार वाहकहरू गइसकेपछि येशूले भिडहरूलाई यूहन्‍नाको बारेमा बताउन थाल्नुभयो, “तिमी उजाड-स्थानमा के हेर्नलाई गयौ, के बतासले हल्लाइराखेको निगालोलाई?
And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to say to the multitudes concerning John: What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 तर के हेर्नलाई तिमी गयौ, मलमलको कपडा लगाएको एउटा मानिसलाई? हेर, राम्रा सुन्दर कपडा लगाएका मानिसहरू राजाका दरबारमा भोगविलाससाथ जिउँछन् ।
But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that wear splendid apparel, and live in luxury, are in kings houses.
26 तर के हेर्नलाई तिमीहरू बाहिर गयौ, एउटा अगमवक्‍तालाई? हो, म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, र एउटा अगमवक्‍ताभन्दा पनि महान् यहाँ छ ।
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
27 यो जसको बारेमा लेखिएको छ, हेर, म मेरा सन्‍देशवाहकलाई तिम्रो अगि-अगि पठाउँदै छु ।
This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
28 म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, स्‍त्रीहरूबाट जन्मेकाहरूमध्येमा, बप्‍तिस्मा-दिने यूहन्‍नाभन्दा महान् कोही छैन, तापनि परमेश्‍वरको राज्यमा सबभन्दा कम महत्त्‍वको मानिस पनि उनीभन्दा महान् हुन्छ ।”
For I say to you, Among those born of women, there is no prophet greater than John the Immerser. But the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
29 जब सबै मानिसहरूले यो सुने, तब कर उठाउनेहरूसमेत, तिनीहरूले यो घोषणा गरे कि परमेश्‍वर धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ, जसले बप्‍तिस्मा-दिने यूहन्‍नासँगै बप्‍तिस्‍मा लिएका थिए ।
And all the people, and the publicans that heard him, vindicated God, by being immersed with the immersion of John;
30 तर फरिसीहरू र यहूदीहरूका व्यवस्थाका पण्डितहरू, जसले उनीबाट बप्‍तिस्‍मा लिएका थिएनन्, तिनीहरू आफैँले आफ्ना निम्ति परमेश्‍वरको बुद्धिलाई इन्कार गरे ।
but the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God in regard to themselves, by not being immersed by him.
31 यस पुस्ताका मानिसहरूलाई मैले केसित तुलना गरूँ? तिनीहरू केजस्ता छन्?
To what, then, shall I compare the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
32 तिनीहरू बजार क्षेत्रमा खेलिरहने बालबालिकाहरूजस्ता छन्, जो बस्दछन् र एक अर्कोलाई यसो भन्दै बोलाउँछन्, “हामीले तिमीहरूका लागि बाँसुरी बजायौँ, तर तिमीहरू नाचेनौ । हामीले विलाप गर्‍यौँ, तर तिमीहरू रोएनौ ।”
They are like children sitting in the market-place, who call to one another, and say, We have played on the pipe for you, and you have not danced; we have sung mournful songs for you, and you have not lamented.
33 किनकि बप्‍तिस्मा-दिने यूहन्‍ना न रोटी खाँदै आए न त दाखमद्य नै पिउदै आए र पनि तिमीहरू भन्छौ कि उसलाई भूत लागेको छ ।
For John the Immerser came, neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, He has a demon.
34 मानिसका पुत्र खाँदै र पिउँदै आए र तिमीहरू भन्छौ, “हेर, ऊ त एउटा घिचुवा र पियक्‍कड मानिस, कर उठाउने र पापीहरूका मित्र हो ।”
The Son of man has come, eating and drinking, and you say, Behold, a gluttonous man and a drinker of wine, a friend of publicans and sinners.
35 तर बुद्धि तिनका सबै सन्तानहरूद्वारा प्रमाणित हुन्छ ।”
Yet wisdom is vindicated by all her children.
36 अहिले एक जना फरिसीले येशूलाई ऊसँग भोजन गर्नका लागि अनुरोध गरिरहेको थियो । त्यसपछि येशू फरिसीको घरमा प्रवेश गर्नुभयो, भोजन खानलाई टेबुलमा गएर बस्‍नुभयो ।
And one of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. And he went into the house of the Pharisee, and reclined at table.
37 हेर, त्यस सहरमा एउटी स्‍त्री थिइन् जो पापी थिइन्, तिनले पत्ता लगाइन् कि उहाँ फरिसीको घरमा बस्‍नुभएको छ र तिनले सिङ्गमरमरको बोतलमा अत्तर ल्याइन् ।
And, behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she knew that he reclined at table in the house of the Pharisee, brought an alabaster box of ointment,
38 तिनी उहाँका पाउको नजिक पछाडिपट्टि उभिइन् र रोइन् । तब तिनले उहाँको पाउ आफ्ना आँसुले भिजाउन थालिन् र टाउकाको कपालले उहाँका पाउ पुछिन्, उहाँका पाउमा म्वाइ खाइन् र पाउमा अत्तर घसिन् ।
and stood behind at his feet, weeping; and she began to wash his feet with her tears; and she wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet and anointed them with the ointment.
39 जब येशूलाई बोलाउने फरिसीले यो देख्यो, तब उसले आफूले विचार गर्दै भन्यो, “यदि यी मानिस एउटा अगमवक्‍ता भएको भए, तब उनले जान्‍ने थिए कि को र कस्ती प्रकारकी स्‍त्रीले उहाँलाई छोइरहेकी छे र त्यो एउटी पापी स्‍त्री हो भनेर ।”
But when the Pharisee who had invited him, saw it, he said within himself: This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who, and what sort of woman this is that touches him; for she is a sinner.
40 येशूले जवाफ दिएर उसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “सिमोन मैले तिमीलाई केही भन्‍नु छ ।” उसले भन्यो, “गुरुज्यू, भन्‍नुहोस् ।”
And Jesus answered and said to him: Simon, I have something to say to you. He replied: Teacher, say on.
41 येशूले भन्‍नुभयो, “दुई जना मानिसले एक जना साहुबाट ऋण लिएका थिए । एउटाले पाँच सय दिनार ऋण, र अर्कोले पचास दिनार ऋण लिएको रहेछ ।
A certain creditor had two debtors; the one owed him five hundred denarii, the other, fifty.
42 तिनीहरूसँग तिर्ने नभएकोले साहुले ती दुवै जनालाई माफ गरिदिए । त्यसकारण, तिनीहरूमध्ये कुनचाहिँले उनलाई बढी प्रेम गर्नेछ?”
But as they had nothing to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them, then, will love him the more?
43 सिमोनले उहाँलाई जवाफ दिए र भने, “म विचार गर्छु कि जसलाई उनले बढी माफ गरे । येशूले उसलाई भन्‍नुभयो तिमीले ठिकसित न्याय गर्‍यौ ।”
Simon answered and said: I suppose he to whom he forgave the more. He said to him: You have decided correctly.
44 येशू स्‍त्रीतिर फर्केर सिमोनलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तिमी यो स्‍त्रीलाई देख्दछौ । म तिम्रो घरभित्र प्रवेश गरेँ । तिमीले मेरो पाउ धुनलाई पानीसम्म दिएनौँ, तर तिनले त आफ्नो आँसुले मेरा पाउ भिजाइन्, र कपालले मेरा पाउ पुछिन् ।
And turning toward the woman, he said to Simon: Do you see this woman? I entered your house, you gave me no water for my feet; but she has washed my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.
45 तिमीले मलाई म्वाइँ खाएनौ, तर तिनले म यहाँभित्र पसेको समयदेखि मेरा पाउमा म्वाइँ खान छोडेकी छैनन् ।
You gave me no kiss; but she, from the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 तिमीले मेरो शिर तेलले अभिषेक गरेनौ, तर तिनले मेरा पाउमा अत्तर घसिन् ।
You did not anoint my head with oil; but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 यो घटनाको कारणले म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, कि जसका धेरै पाप थिए र बढी क्षमा गरिएको छ, तिनले धेरै प्रेम गरेकी छन् । तर जसलाई थोरै मात्र क्षमा गरिएको छ, उसले थोरै नै मात्र प्रेम गर्छ ।”
Wherefore, I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much. But he to whom little is forgiven, loves little.
48 तब उहाँले तिनलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तिम्रा पापहरू क्षमा भएका छन् ।”
And he said to her: Your sins are forgiven.
49 त्यहाँ एकसाथ बसिरहेकाहरूले एक-अर्कामा भन्‍न थाले, ‘पाप क्षमा गर्ने यी को हुन् र?‘
And those who reclined at table with him began to say within themselves: Who is this that also forgives sins?
50 तब येशूले स्‍त्रीलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तिम्रो विश्‍वासले तिमीलाई बचाएको छ, शान्तिसँग जाऊ ।”
But he said to the woman: Your faith has saved you; go in peace.
