मर्कूस 12
1 त्यसपछि येशूले तिनीहरूलाई दृष्टान्तमा सिकाउन थाल्नुभयो । उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “एक जना मानिसले दाखबारी लगाए, त्यसको वरिपरि बार लगाए र कोलको निम्ति एउटा खाल्डो खने । उनले त्यहाँ एउटा मचान बनाए र दाख उमार्नेहरूलाई दाखबारी भाडामा दिए । त्यसपछि उनी यात्रामा लागे ।
Jesus began to speak to them in parables, ‘A man once planted a vineyard, put a fence round it, dug a wine-press, built a tower, and then let it out to tenants and went abroad.
2 ठिक समयमा उनले दाखको केही फल पाउन दाख उमार्नेहरूकहाँ एक जना नोकर पठाए ।
At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants, to receive from them a share of the produce of the grape harvest;
3 तर तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई समातेर पिटे र केही पनि नदिईकन पठाइदिए ।
but they seized him, and beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
4 फेरि उनले अर्को नोकरलाई पठाए, तर तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई पनि टाउकोमा चोट पुर्याए र लज्जास्पद रूपमा व्यवहार गरे ।
A second time the owner sent a servant to them; this man, too, the tenants struck on the head, and insulted.
5 अझै पनि उनले अर्कोलाई पठाए र त्यसलाई तिनीहरूले मारे । तिनीहरूले अरू धेरैलाई पनि त्यस्तै व्यवहार गरे, कसैलाई कुटे र अरूलाई मारे ।
He sent another, but him they killed; and so with many others – some they beat and some they killed.
6 उनीसँग पठाउन अझै पनि एक जना व्यक्ति अर्थात् प्यारो छोरा थिए । उनले तिनीहरूकहाँ पठाउन त्यो नै अन्तिम व्यक्ति थियो । उनले भने, “तिनीहरूले मेरो छोरालाई आदर गर्नेछन् ।”
He had still one son, who was very dear to him; and him he sent to them last of all. “They will respect my son,” he said.
7 तर मोहीहरूले एक-आपसमा भने, “यो त उत्तराधिकारी हो । आओ, यसलाई मारौँ र सम्पत्ति हाम्रो हुनेछ ।”
But those tenants said to one another “Here is the heir! Come, let us kill him, and his inheritance will be ours.”
8 तिनीहरूले उसलाई पक्रे; उसलाई मारे र उसलाई दाखबारी बाहिर फालिदिए ।
So they seized him, and killed him, and threw his body outside the vineyard.
9 यसकारण, दाखबारीको मालिकले के गर्नेछ? उनी आउनेछन् र ती दाख उमार्नेहरूलाई नाश गर्नेछन् र दाखबारी अरूहरूलाई दिनेछन् ।
What will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and put the tenants to death, and he will let the vineyard to others.
10 के तिमीहरूले यो धर्मशास्त्र पढेका छैनौ? ‘जुन ढुङ्गालाई निर्माणकर्ताहरूले अस्वीकार गरे, त्यही नै कुने-ढुङ्गो भएको छ ।’
‘Have you never read this passage of scripture? – “The stone which the builders despised has now itself become the cornerstone;
11 त्यो परमप्रभुबाट थियो र यो हाम्रो दृष्टिमा आश्चर्यजनक छ ।”
this cornerstone has come from the Lord, and is marvellous in our eyes.”’
12 तिनीहरूले येशूलाई पक्रन खोजे, तर तिनीहरू भिडसित डराए, किनभने उहाँले यो दृष्टान्त तिनीहरूकै विरुद्धमा बोल्नुभएको कुरा तिनीहरूले जाने । त्यसैले, तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई छाडे र गए ।
After this his enemies were eager to arrest him, but they were afraid of the crowd; for they saw that it was at them that he had aimed the parable. So they left him alone, and went away.
13 अनि तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई उहाँकै वचनहरूमा फसाउन हेरोदियासहरू र केही फरिसीहरू पठाए ।
Afterwards they sent to Jesus some of the Pharisees and Herodians, to set a trap for him in the course of conversation.
14 तिनीहरू आए र उहाँलाई भने, “गुरुज्यू, हामी जान्दछौँ, कि तपाईंले कसैको विचारको वास्ता गर्नुहुन्न, र तपाईंले मानिसहरूबिच कुनै भेदभाव गर्नुहुन्न । तपाईंले साँच्चै परमेश्वरको मार्ग सिकाउनुहुन्छ । कैसरलाई कर तिर्नु उचित हो वा होइन? हामी कर तिरौँ कि नतिरौँ?”
These men came to him and said, ‘Teacher, we know that you are an honest man, and are not afraid of anyone, for you pay no regard to a person’s position, but teach the way of God honestly; are we right in paying taxes to the Emperor, or not?
15 तर येशूले तिनीहरूको कपटलाई जान्नुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूले मलाई किन जाँच्छौ? मलाई एउटा सिक्का ल्याओ ताकि मैले हेर्न सकौँ ।”
Should we pay, or should we not pay?’ Knowing their hypocrisy, Jesus said to them, ‘Why are you testing me? Bring me a coin to look at.’
16 तिनीहरूले एउटा सिक्का येशूकहाँ ल्याए । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “यो कसको स्वरूप र छाप हो?” तिनीहरूले भने, “कैसरको हो ।”
And, when they had brought it, he asked, ‘Whose head and title are these?’ ‘The Emperor’s,’ they said;
17 येशूले भन्नुभयो, “कैसरका चिजहरू कैसरलाई नै देओ र परमेश्वरका चिजहरू परमेश्वरलाई नै ।” तिनीहरू चकित भए ।
and Jesus replied, ‘Pay to the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor, and to God what belongs to God.’ And they were amazed at him.
18 त्यसपछि पुनरुत्थान हुँदैन भन्ने सदुकीहरू उहाँकहाँ आए । तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई यसो भनेर सोधे,
Next came some Sadducees – the men who maintain that there is no resurrection. Their question was this –
19 “गुरुज्यू, मोशाले हाम्रो लागि लेखे, ‘यदि कुनै मानिसको दाजु कुनै बालबच्चा नभईकन मर्छ भने, त्यो मानिसले आफ्नो दाजुकी पत्नीलाई विवाह गरेर आफ्नो दाजुको लागि बच्चा जन्माउनुपर्छ ।’
‘Teacher, in our scriptures Moses decreed that, should a man’s brother die, leaving a widow but no child, the man should take the widow as his wife, and raise up a family for his brother.
20 त्यहाँ सात जना दाजुभाइ थिए, पहिलोले आफ्नी पत्नी ल्याए र बच्चा नभई मरे ।
There were once seven brothers. The eldest married, but died and left no family;
21 दोस्रोले दाजुकी पत्नी लगे र कुनै बालबच्चा नभई तिनी मरे । अनि तेस्रोलाई पनि त्यस्तै भयो ।
and the second married his widow, and died without family; and so did the third.
22 अनि सातै जना कुनैको पनि बालबच्चा भएन । अन्तमा ती स्त्री पनि मरिन् ।
All the seven died and left no family. The woman herself died last of all.
23 पुनरुत्थानमा जब तिनीहरू फेरि जीवित भई उठ्नेछन्, तिनी कसकी पत्नी हुनेछिन्? किनभने ती सातै दाजुभाइले तिनलाई पत्नीको रूपमा लिए ।
At the resurrection whose wife will she be, all seven brothers having had her as their wife?’
24 येशूले भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूले न त धर्मशास्त्र न परमेश्वरको शक्तिको बारेमा जानेका हुनाले नै के तिमीहरूले गल्ती गरेका होइनौ र?
‘Is not the reason of your mistake,’ answered Jesus, ‘your ignorance of the scriptures and of the power of God?
25 किनभने जब तिनीहरू मृत्युबाट जीवित भई उठ्नेछन्, तिनीहरूले न विवाह गर्छन् न त विवाह गर्न नै दिन्छन्, तर तिनीहरू स्वर्गका स्वर्गदूतहरूजस्ता हुनेछन् ।
When people rise from the dead, there is no marrying or being married; but they are as angels in heaven.
26 तर जीवित भई उठ्ने मृतकहरूको विषयमा के तिमीहरूले मोशाको पुस्तकमा झाडीको विवरणमा परमेश्वर उनीसँग कसरी बोल्नुभयो र, ‘म अब्राहामका परमेश्वर, इसहाकका परमेश्वर र याकूबका परमेश्वर हुँ’ भन्नुभयो भन्ने पढेका छैनौ?”
‘As to the dead, and the fact that they rise, have you never read in the book of Moses, in the passage about the Bush, how God spoke to him saying – “I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob”?
27 उहाँ मृतकहरूका परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्न, तर जीवितहरूका परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ । तिमीहरू गलत छौ ।”
He is not God of dead people, but of living. You are greatly mistaken.’
28 शास्त्रीहरूमध्येका एक जना आए र तिनीहरूका छलफल सुने । येशूले तिनीहरूलाई राम्रो जवाफ दिनुभएको तिनले देखे । तिनले उहाँलाई सोधे, “सबैभन्दा महत्त्वपूर्ण आज्ञा कुन हो?”
Then came up one of the teachers of the Law who had heard their discussions. Knowing that Jesus had answered them wisely, he asked him this question, ‘Which commandment is the most important of all?’
29 येशूले जवाफ दिनुभयो, “सबैभन्दा महत्त्वपूर्णचाहिँ यो हो, ‘सुन, हे इस्राएल, परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर, परमप्रभु एक मात्र हुनुहुन्छ ।
‘The most important,’ answered Jesus, ‘is – “Hear, Israel; the Lord our God is the one Lord;
30 तिमीले आफ्ना परमप्रभु परमेश्वरलाई आफ्ना सारा हृदय, सारा प्राण, सारा मन र सारा शक्तिले प्रेम गर्नुपर्दछ ।’
and you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.”
31 दोस्रो आज्ञा यो हो, ‘आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई आफुलाई जस्तै प्रेम गर्नुपर्छ ।’ योभन्दा अरू कुनै ठुलो आज्ञा छैन ।”
The second is this – “You must love your neighbour as you love yourself.” There is no commandment greater than these.’
32 शास्त्रीले भने, “हे असल गुरुज्यू! परमेश्वर एक मात्र हुनुहुन्छ र उहाँबाहेक अरू कोही पनि छैन भनी तपाईंले साँचो भन्नुभएको छ ।
‘Wisely answered, teacher!’ exclaimed the teacher of the Law. ‘It is true, as you say, that there is one God, and that there is no other besides him;
33 उहाँलाई सारा हृदय, सारा समझ र सारा शक्तिले प्रेम गर्नू अनि आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई आफूलाई झैँ प्रेम गर्नू होमबलि र बलिदानहरूभन्दा पनि महान् हो ।”
and to love him with all one’s heart, and with all one’s understanding, and with all one’s strength, and to love one’s neighbour as one loves oneself is far beyond all burnt offerings and sacrifices.’
34 जब तिनले बुद्धिमत्तापूर्वक जवाफ दिएको येशूले देख्नुभयो, उहाँले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमी परमेश्वरको राज्यबाट टाढा छैनौ ।” त्यसपछि कसैले पनि येशूलाई अरू प्रश्न गर्ने आँट गरेन ।
Seeing that he had answered with discernment, Jesus said to him, ‘You are not far from the kingdom of God.’ After that no one ventured to question him further.
35 येशूले मन्दिरमा सिकाउँदै गर्नुहुँदा उहाँले जवाफ दिनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “शास्त्रीहरूले ख्रीष्टलाई कसरी दाऊदका पुत्र भन्छन्?
While Jesus was teaching in the Temple Courts, he asked, ‘How is it that the teachers of the Law say that the Christ is to be David’s son?
36 दाऊद आफैँले पवित्र आत्माद्वारा यसो भने, ‘परमप्रभुले मेरा प्रभुलाई भन्नुभयो, मेरो दाहिने हातमा बस, जबसम्म मैले तिम्रा शत्रुहरूलाई तिम्रो खुट्टामुनि ल्याउँदिनँ ।’
David said himself, speaking under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit – “The Lord said to my lord: Sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies beneath your feet.”
37 दाऊद आफैँले उहाँलाई ‘प्रभु’ भन्छन् भने मसीह कसरी दाऊदका पुत्र हुन सक्छन् त?” ठुलो भिडले उहाँको कुरा खुसीसाथ सुन्यो ।
David himself calls him “lord,” how comes it, then, that he is to be his son?’ The mass of the people listened to Jesus with delight.
38 येशूले उहाँको शिक्षामा भन्नुभयो, “शास्त्रीहरूदेखि होसियार बस, जसले लामो वस्त्र लगाएर हिँड्न र बजारमा अभिवादन गरेको,
In the course of his teaching, Jesus said, ‘See that you are on your guard against the teachers of the Law, who delight to walk about in long robes, and to be greeted in the streets with respect,
39 अनि सभाघरमा भोजमा प्रमुख आसनहरू र भोजहरूमा प्रमुख स्थानहरू रुचाउँछन् ।
and to have the best seats in the synagogues, and places of honour at dinner.
40 तिनीहरूले विधवाहरूको घर खान्छन् र मानिसहरूले देखून् भनी लामो प्रार्थना गर्छन् । यी मानिसहरूले अझ ठुलो दण्ड पाउनेछन् ।”
They are the men who rob widows of their homes, and make a pretence of saying long prayers. Their sentence will be all the heavier.’
41 त्यसपछि येशू मन्दिर परिसरको भेटी चढाउने बाकसको सामुन्ने बस्नुभयो । मानिसहरूले भेटी हालिरहँदा उहाँले हेरिरहनुभएको थियो । धेरै धनी मानिसले ठुलो रकम हाले ।
Then Jesus sat down opposite the chests for the Temple offerings, and watched how the people put money into them. Many rich people were putting in large sums;
42 त्यसपछि त्यहाँ एक जना गरिब विधवा आइन् र दुई सिक्का हालिन् ।
but one poor widow came and put in two small coins, worth very little.
43 उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई बोलाउनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “साँच्चै, म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, यी गरिब विधवाले भेटीको बाकसमा भेटी दिनेहरूमध्ये सबैभन्दा धेरै हालेकी छन् ।
Then, calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, ‘I tell you that this poor widow has put in more than all the others who were putting money into the chests;
44 किनभने सबैले आ-आफ्ना प्रशस्तताबाट दिए । तर यी विधवाले आफ्नो गरिबीबाट तिनी जिउनुपर्ने सबै पैसा हालिन् ।”
for everyone else put in something from what he had to spare, while she, in her need, put in all she had – everything that she had to live on.’
