< लुका 9 >
1 उहाँले बाह्र जनालाई एकैसाथ बोलाउनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई सबै भूतहरू निकाल्ने र रोगहरू निको पार्ने अधिकार र शक्ति दिनुभयो ।
Jesus called the Twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all demons, as well as to cure diseases.
2 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई परमेश्वरको राज्यको सुसमाचार प्रचार गर्न र बिरामी निको पार्न पठाउनुभयो ।
He sent them out as his Messengers, to proclaim the Kingdom of God, and to work cures.
3 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूले यात्राका निम्ति केही नलैजाओ न त लौरो, न त थैली, न त रोटी, न त पैसा, न त दुईवटा दौरा लैजाओ ।
“Do not,” he said to them, “take anything for your journey; not even a staff, or a bag, or bread, or any silver, or a change of clothes with you.
4 तिमीहरू जुन घरमा पस्छौ, त्यस ठाउँलाई नछोडेसम्म त्यहीँ बस ।
Whatever house you go to stay in, remain there, and leave from that place.
5 कसैले तिमीहरूलाई ग्रहण गर्दैन भने, जब तिमीहरू त्यस सहरलाई छोडछौ, तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा साक्षीका लागि तिमीहरूका खुट्टाको धुलोसमेत टकटकाइदेओ ।”
If people do not welcome you, as you leave that town, shake even the dust off your feet, as a protest against them.”
6 तब तिनीहरू सुसमाचारको घोषणा गर्दै हिँडे र हरेक ठाउँका रोगी मानिसहरूलाई निको पार्दै गाउँहरूतिर गए ।
Then they set out and went from village to village, telling the Good News and curing people everywhere.
7 अनि शासक हेरोदले जे भइरहेको थियो, त्यो सुनेर उनी अन्योलमा परे, कारण बप्तिस्मा-दिने यूहन्ना जीवित भएका छन् भनेर कसैले उनलाई सुनाइदिएको थियो ।
Prince Herod heard of all that was happening, and was perplexed, because it was said by some that John must be risen from the dead.
8 र कसैले एलिया देखा परेका छन्, र अरूहरूले पुराना अगमवक्ताहरूमध्ये एक जना फेरि पुनर्जीवित भएका छन् भने ।
Some again said that Elijah had appeared, and others that one of the old Prophets had risen again.
9 हेरोदले भने, “मैले यूहन्नाको टाउको काटेँ, तर यो को हो जसको बारेमा म यस्तो कुरा सुन्दै छु?” र हेरोदले येशूलाई हेर्ने बाटो खोज्ने कोसिस गरे ।
But Herod himself said: “John I beheaded; but who is this of whom I hear such things?” And he endeavoured to see him.
10 जब पठाइएकाहरू फर्केर आए, तिनीहरूले गरेका सबै कुरा उहाँलाई तिनीहरूले बताए । तिनीहरूलाई उहाँसँगै लगेर, बेथसेदा भनिने सहरमा आफैँ तिनीहरूसँग जानुभयो ।
When the Apostles returned, they related to Jesus all that they had done. Then Jesus retired privately to a town called Bethsaida, taking the Apostles with him.
11 तर भिडले यो सुन्यो र उहाँलाई पछ्यायो र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई स्वागत गर्नुभयो, र परमेश्वरको राज्यको बारेमा तिनीहरूलाई बताउनुभयो र जसलाई निको हुन आवश्यक थियो, तिनीहरूलाई निको पार्नुभयो ।
But the people recognised him and followed him in crowds; and Jesus welcomed them and spoke to them about the Kingdom of God, while he cured those who were in need of help.
12 दिन ढल्किन लाग्दा बाह्रै जना उहाँकहाँ आए र भने, “यस भिडलाई बिदा दिनुहोस्, ताकि तिनीहरूले गाउँहरूतिर र वरिपरिका ठाउँहरूमा गएर बास बस्न र खान पाउन सकून्, किनकि हामी यहाँ मरुभूमिको ठाउँमा छौँ ।”
The day was drawing to a close, when the twelve came up to him, and said: “Send the crowd away, so that they may make their way to the villages and farms round about, and find themselves lodgings and provisions, for we are in a lonely spot here.”
13 तर उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूले नै तिनीहरूलाई केही खानलाई देओ ।” तिनीहरूले भने, “हामीसँग पाँचवटा रोटी र दुईवटा माछाभन्दा बढी केही छैन । मानिसहरूको यो ठुलो भिडलाई गएर खाना किन्नबाहेक अर्को उपाय छैन ।”
But Jesus said: “It is for you to give them something to eat.” “We have not more than five loaves and two fishes,” they answered; “unless indeed we are to go and buy food for all these people.”
14 त्यहाँ पाँच हजारभन्दा बढी मानिस थिए । उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, तिनीहरूलाई पचास-पचास जनाको समूहमा बस्न लगाओ ।”
(For the men among them were about five thousand.) “Get them seated in companies,” was his reply, “about fifty in each.”
15 अनि तिनीहरूले त्यसै गरे, र सबै मानिसहरू बसे ।
This they did, and got all the people seated.
16 उहाँले पाँचवटा रोटी र दुईवटा माछालाई हातमा लिनुभयो र स्वर्गतिर आँखा उठाउँदै, तिनीहरूलाई आशीर्वाद दिनुभयो, र तिनलाई भाँचेर टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नुभयो, र भिडको सामु बाँड्नलाई चेलाहरूलाई दिनुभयो ।
Taking the five loaves and the two fishes, Jesus looked up to Heaven and said the blessing over them. Then he broke them in pieces, and gave them to his disciples to set before the people.
17 तिनीहरू सबैले खाए र सन्तुष्ट भए र उब्रेका सबै रोटीका टुक्राहरू बटुले र बाह्र डाला भरे ।
Every one had sufficient to eat, and what was left of the broken pieces was picked up — twelve baskets.
18 जब उहाँ एकलै प्रार्थना गरिरहनुभएको थियो, चेलाहरू पनि उहाँसँग थिए । उहाँले तिनिहरूलाई प्रश्न गर्दै भन्नुभयो, “भिडले म को हुँ भनी भन्दछ?”
Afterwards, when Jesus was alone, praying, his disciples joined him, and he asked them this question — “Who do the people say that I am?”
19 तिनीहरूले जवाफ दिँदै भने, “बप्तिस्मा-दिने यहून्ना, तर अरूले भन्छन् एलिया र अरूहरूले फेरि उदाएका पुरानो समयका एक जना अगमवक्ता हुन् भनी भन्दछन् ।”
“John the Baptist,” was their answer; “others, however, say that you are Elijah, while others say that one of the old Prophets has risen again.”
20 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तर तिमीहरूचाहिँ म को हुँ भनी भन्दछौ?” पत्रुसले जवाफ दिँदै भने, “परमेश्वरबाट आउनुभएका ख्रीष्ट ।”
“But you,” he went on, “who do you say that I am?” And to this Peter answered: “The Christ of God.”
21 तर तिनीहरूलाई चेताउनी दिँदै येशूले तिनीहरूलाई यो कसैलाई पनि नभन्नू भनी शिक्षा दिनुभयो ।
Jesus, however, strictly charged them not to say this to any one;
22 निश्चय नै मानिसका पुत्रले धेरै कुरामा दुख सहनु, बुढापाकाहरू, मुख्य पुजारीहरू र शास्त्रीहरूबाट तिरष्कृत हुनु छ र तिनी मारिनेछन् र तेस्रो दिनमा जीवनमा फर्की आउनेछन् ।
he told them that the Son of Man must undergo much suffering, and be rejected by the Councillors, and Chief Priests, and Teachers of the Law, and be put to death, and rise on the third day.
23 उहाँले तिनीहरू सबैलाई भन्नुभयो, “यदि कोही मेरो पछि आउन चाहन्छ भने, उसले आफैँलाई इन्कार गरोस्, दिनहुँ आफ्नो क्रुस उठाओस् र मलाई पछ्याओस् ।
And to all present he said: “If any man wishes to walk in my steps, let him renounce self, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
24 जसले आफ्नो जीवनलाई बचाउने प्रयास गर्दछ, उसले त्यसलाई गुमाउनेछ, तर मेरो खातिर जसले आफ्नो जीवन गुमाउँछ, त्यसले त्यो बचाउनेछ ।
For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, and whoever, for my sake, loses his life — that man shall save it.
25 सारा संसार हात पारेर पनि उसले आफैँलाई नाश गर्छ वा गुमाउँछ भने, मानिसलाई के लाभ हुन्छ र?
What good does it do a man if, when he has gained the whole world, he has lost or forfeited himself?
26 जो मेरा वचनहरू र मसँग शर्माउँछ, महिमाका पिता र पवित्र दूतहरूका सामु मानिसका पुत्र पनि आफ्नो महिमामा आउँदा तिनीहरूसँग शर्माउँनेछन् ।
Whoever is ashamed of me and of my teaching, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him, when he comes in his Glory and the Glory of the father and of the holy angels.
27 तर म तिमीहरूलाई साँचो भन्दछु, यहाँ तिमीहरूमध्ये उभिनेहरू कोही छन् जसले मृत्युको स्वाद चाख्नअगि परमेश्वरको राज्य देख्नेछैनन् ।
Indeed, I tell you, some who are standing before me will not know death, till they have seen the Kingdom of God.”
28 लगभग आठ दिनपछि येशूले उहाँसँग प्रार्थना गर्न पत्रुस, यूहन्ना र याकूबलाई सँगै लिएर जाँदा यी कुराहरू भन्नुभएको थियो ।
About eight days after speaking these words, Jesus went up the mountain to pray, taking with him Peter, John, and James.
29 जब उहाँले प्रार्थना गर्दै हुनुहुन्थ्यो, उहाँको अनुहार परिवर्तन भयो, र उहाँको वस्त्र सेतो र चम्किलो भयो ।
As he was praying, the aspect of his face was changed, and his clothing became of a glittering whiteness.
30 हेर, त्यहाँ दुई जना मानिस उहाँसँग कुरा गरिरहेका थिए! तिनीहरू मोशा र एलिया थिए,
And all at once two men were talking with Jesus; they were Moses and Elijah,
31 जो महिमित देखिए । तिनीहरू उहाँको उठाइबारे कुरा गरिरहेका थिए, जुन यरूशलेममा पुरा हुन लागेको थियो ।
who appeared in a glorified state, and spoke of his departure, which was destined to take place at Jerusalem.
32 अब पत्रुस र तिनीसँग भएकाहरू निन्द्राले लट्ठ भएका थिए । तर जब तिनीहरू पूर्ण रूपले ब्युँझे, तिनीहरूले उहाँसँगै उभिरहेका दुई जना मानिस र उहाँको महिमालाई देखे ।
Peter and his companions had been overpowered by sleep but, suddenly becoming wide awake, they saw Jesus glorified and the two men who were standing beside him.
33 तिनीहरू येशूबाट टाढा जाँदै गर्दा, पत्रुसले उहाँलाई भने, “गुरुज्यू, हामी यहाँ तिन वटा टहरा बनाऔँ, यो हाम्रो लागि असल छ । एउटा तपाईंको लागि, अर्को मोशाको लागि र एउटा एलियाको लागि ।” उहाँले केको बारेमा भन्दै हुनुहुन्थ्यो भन्ने कुरा उनले बुझेनन् ।
And, as Moses and Elijah were passing away from Jesus, Peter exclaimed: “Sir, it is good to be here; let us make three tents, one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” He did not know what he was saying;
34 जब तिनले यी कुराहरू भन्दै थिए, बादल आयो र तिनीहरूलाई ढाक्यो र तिनीहरूका वरिपरि बादलले ढाकेको देखेर तिनीहरू अत्तालिए ।
and, while he was speaking, a cloud came down and enveloped them; and they were afraid, as they passed into the cloud;
35 बादलबाट यसो भन्दै एउटा आवाज आयो, “यिनी मेरा चुनिएका पुत्र हुन् । यिनको कुरा सुन ।”
and from the cloud came a voice which said — “This is my Son, the Chosen One; him you must hear.”
36 जब त्यो आवाज बन्द भयो, येशू एकलै हुनुभयो । तिनीहरू चुप भए र ती दिनमा जुन कुरा तिनीहरूले देखेका थिए, कसैलाई पनि भनेनन् ।
And, as the voice ceased, Jesus was found alone. The Apostles kept silence, and told no one about any of the things that they had seen.
37 तिनीहरू पहाडबाट तल ओर्लेर आएको भोलिपल्ट मानिसहरूको ठुलो भिडले उहाँलाई भेट्यो ।
The next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met Jesus.
38 हेर, भिडबाट एक जना मानिस यसो भन्दै चिच्यायो, “गुरुज्यू, म बिन्ती गर्छु, कि तपाईंले मेरो छोरालाई हेर्नुहोस्, किनभने ऊ मेरो एउटै मात्र छोरा हो ।
And just then a man in the crowd shouted out: “Teacher, I entreat you to look at my son, for he is my only child;
39 हेर्नुहोस, उसलाई आत्माले समात्छ, र ऊ अचानक चिच्च्याउँछ, यसले उसको मुखमा फिज काढेर उसलाई काम्न लगाउँछ । यो उसबाट मुस्किलले जान्छ, जब यसले छोड्छ तब उसलाई नराम्रो गरी चोट पार्छ ।
all at once a spirit will seize him, suddenly shriek out, and throw him into convulsions till he foams, and will leave him only when he is utterly exhausted.
40 मैले ऊबाट यसलाई निकाल्न भनेर तपाईंका चेलाहरूसँग बिन्ती गरेँ, तर तिनीहरूले सकेनन् ।”
I entreated your disciples to drive the spirit out, but they could not.”
41 येशूले जवाफ दिनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “हे अविश्वासी र भ्रष्ट पुस्ता, म तिमीहरूसँग कति समयसम्म रहनु र तिमीहरूलाई सहनु? तिम्रो छोरालाई यहाँ लेऊ ।”
“O faithless and perverse generation!” Jesus exclaimed; “how long must I be with you and have patience with you? Lead your son here.”
42 त्यो केटो आउँदै थियो, भूतले उसलाई भुइँमा पछार्यो, र भयानक तवरले कमायो । तर येशूले अशुद्ध आत्मालाई हप्काउनुभयो र केटालाई निको पार्नुभयो र उसको बुबालाई फिर्ता दिनुभयो ।
While the boy was coming up to Jesus, the demon dashed him down and threw him into convulsions. But Jesus rebuked the foul spirit, and cured the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 तिनीहरू परमेश्वरको महानतामा चकित भए । तर सबै जना उहाँले गर्नुभएका यी सबै कुराहरूप्रति चकित भइरहँदा, उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्नुभयो,
And all present were struck with awe at the majesty of God. In the midst of the general astonishment at all that Jesus was doing, he said to his disciples:
44 “यी वचनहरू तिमीहरूका कानका गहिराइसम्म पुगून्, किनभने, मानिसका पुत्र मानिसहरूका हातमा सुम्पिनेछन् ।”
“Listen carefully to my words. For the Son of Man is destined to be betrayed into the hands of his fellow men.”
45 तर तिनीहरूले यस भनाइलाई बुझेनन् र यो तिनीहरूबाट लुकाइएको थियो । त्यसैले, तिनीहरूले यसलाई बुझ्न सकेनन् । तिनीहरूले त्यस भनाइबारे उहाँलाई सोध्न डराए ।
But the disciples did not understand the meaning of this; it had been concealed from them so that they did not see it, and they were afraid to question him as to what he meant.
46 तब तिनीहरूबिच सबैभन्दा ठुलो को हुने हो भनी विवाद चल्यो ।
A discussion arose among the disciples as to which of them was the greatest;
47 तर येशूले तिनीहरूले हृदयमा के विचार गरिरहेका छन् भन्ने थाहा पाएर उहाँले एउटा बालकलाई लिएर उहाँको छेउमा राख्नुभयो,
and Jesus, knowing of the discussion that was occupying their thoughts, took hold of a little child, and placed it beside him,
48 र तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “यदि कसैले मेरो नाउँमा सानो बालकलाई झैँ ग्रहण गर्छ भने उसले मलाई पनि ग्रहण गर्छ, र कसैले मलाई ग्रहण गर्छ भने, उसले मलाई पठाउनुहुनेलाई पनि ग्रहण गर्दछ । किनभने तिमीहरूमध्ये सबैभन्दा सानो नै सबैभन्दा महान् हो ।”
and then said to them: “Any one who, for the sake of my Name, welcomes even this little child is welcoming me; and any one who welcomes me is welcoming him who sent me as his Messenger. For whoever is lowliest among you all — that man is great.”
49 यूहन्नाले जवाफ दिए र भने, “प्रभु, हामीले कसैले तपाईंको नाउँमा भूतहरू निकालिरहेको देख्यौँ । र उसलाई हामीले रोक्यौँ, किनकि उसले हामीलाई पछ्याएन ।”
Thereupon John said: “Sir, we saw a man driving out demons by using your name, and we tried to prevent him, because he does not follow you with us.”
50 तर येशूले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “उसलाई नरोक, किनभने जो तिम्रो विरुद्धमा हुँदैन, त्यो तिम्रो पक्षमा हुन्छ ।”
“None of you must prevent him,” Jesus said to John; “he who is not against you is for you.”
51 जब उहाँ स्वर्गतिर जाने समय नजिक आउँदै थियो, उहाँले यरूशलेमतिर जाने अठोट लिनुभयो ।
As the days before his being taken up to Heaven were growing few, Jesus set his face resolutely in the direction of Jerusalem; and he sent on messengers in advance.
52 उहाँले आफूभन्दा अगि सन्देशवाहकहरूलाई पठाउनुभयो र तिनीहरू गए र उहाँका निम्ति तयारी गर्ने सामरीहरूको गाउँमा प्रवेश गरे ।
On their way, they went into a Samaritan village to make preparations for him,
53 तर त्यहाँका मानिसहरूले उहाँलाई ग्रहण गरेनन्, किनभने उहाँले यरूशलेमतिर जाने अठोट लिनुभएको थियो ।
but the people there did not welcome him, because his face was set in the direction of Jerusalem.
54 जब उहाँका चेलाहरू यूहन्ना र याकूबले यो देखे, तिनीहरूले भने, “प्रभु के स्वर्गबाट आगो बर्साएर तिनीहरूलाई नष्ट गर्न हामी आज्ञा गरौँ?”
When James and John saw this, they said: “Master, do you wish us to call for fire to come down from the heavens and consume them?”
55 तर उहाँ फर्केर तिनीहरूलाई हप्काउनुभयो ।
But Jesus turned and rebuked them.
56 तब उहाँहरू अर्को गाउँतिर जानुभयो ।
And they made their way to another village.
57 जब उहाँहरू बाटोमा जाँदै हुनुहुन्थ्यो, तब कसैले उहाँलाई भन्यो, “तपाईं जहाँ जानुहुन्छ म तपाईंलाई पछ्यानेछु ।”
And, while they were on their way, a man said to Jesus: “I will follow you wherever you go.”
58 येशूले उसलाई भन्नुभयो, “फ्याउराहरूका दुला छन् र आकासका चराहरूका गुँड छन्, तर मानिसका पुत्रको टाउको लुकाउने ठाउँ पनि छैन ।”
“Foxes have holes,” he replied, “and wild birds their roosting-places, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”
59 तब उहाँले अर्को मानिसलाई भन्नुभयो, “मेरो पछि लाग ।” तर उसले भन्यो, “प्रभु, मलाई पहिले मेरा बुबालाई गाड्न दिनुहोस् ।”
To another man Jesus said: “Follow me.” “Let me first go and bury my father,” said the man.
60 तर उहाँले उसलाई भन्नुभयो, “मृतकहरूलाई नै तिनीहरूको मृत शरीर गाड्न देऊ, तर तिमी जाऊ र जताततै परमेश्वरको राज्यको घोषणा गर ।”
But Jesus said: “Leave the dead to bury their dead; but go yourself and carry far and wide the news of the Kingdom of God.”
61 अर्को मानिसले पनि भन्यो, “प्रभु म तपाईंलाई पछ्याउँछु, तर पहिले मेरो घरमा भएकाहरूसँग बिदा माग्न दिनुहोस् ।”
“Master,” said another, “I will follow you; but first let me say good-bye to my family.”
62 तर येशूले उसलाई भन्नुभयो, “हलोमा आफ्नो हात राखेर पछाडि हेर्ने कोही पनि परमेश्वरको राज्यको योग्य हुँदैन ।”
But Jesus answered: “No one who looks back, after putting his hand to the plough, is fitted for the Kingdom of God.”
