मर्कूस 4
1 फेरि उहाँले समुद्रको छेउमा सिकाउन थाल्नुभयो । अनि धेरै ठुलो भिड उहाँको वरिपरि भेला भयो । त्यसैले, उहाँ समुद्रमा भएको एउटा डुङ्गामा चढ्नुभयो र बस्नुभयो । सबै भिड समुद्र किनारको छेउमा थिए ।
Jesus began teaching beside the Sea again. So many people came to listen to him that he climbed into a boat and sat in it on the water while the crowd listened from the shore.
2 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई धेरै कुरा दृष्टान्तमा सिकाउनुभयो र सिकाउँदै गर्दा उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो,
He illustrated his teachings using many stories.
3 “सुन, बिउ छर्ने बिउ छर्न निस्क्यो ।
“Listen,” he said. “A sower went out to sow.
4 त्यसले बिउ छर्दा केही बिउ बाटोमा परे र चराहरू आएर ती बिउहरू खाइदिए ।
Now as he was scattering the seeds, some fell on the path, and birds came and ate them up.
5 अरू बिउहरूचाहिँ त्यति माटो नभएको ढुङ्गेनी जमिनमा परे । तिनीहरू तुरुन्तै उम्रिए, किनभने त्यहाँ माटो गहिरो थिएन ।
Other seeds fell on stony ground where there wasn't much earth. In the shallow soil the plants started growing quickly, but because the soil wasn't deep
6 तर जब घाम लाग्यो, तिनीहरू ओइलाए, अनि तिनीहरूको जरा नभएकोले र ती सुकिहाले ।
they were scorched when the sun came up. Since they didn't have any real roots, they soon withered.
7 अरू बिउहरू काँढाका झाङहरूमा परे । काँढाका झाङहरू बढे, र ती निसासिए, अनि तिनीहरूले कुनै फल फलाएनन् ।
Other seeds fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked the sprouting seeds, so they produced nothing.
8 अरू बिउहरू असल जमिनमा परे, र यो बढ्दै र हुर्कंदै गर्दा फल फलाए, केहीले तिस गुणा, साठी गुणा र सय गुणाभन्दा बढी फल फलाए ।”
Other seeds fell on good soil where they sprouted and grew. They produced a harvest of some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundred times what was planted.
9 अनि उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “जसको सुन्ने कान छ, त्यसले सुनोस् ।”
If you have ears to hear, listen to what I'm saying.”
10 येशू एकलै हुनुहुँदा उहाँका नजिकका मानिसहरू र बाह्र जना चेलाले उक्त दृष्टान्तको बारेमा उहाँसँग सोधे ।
When he was by himself, his twelve disciples and the others who were with him asked him what the illustrations meant.
11 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, तिमीहरूलाई परमेश्वरको राज्यको रहस्य दिइएको छ । तर बाहिरकाहरूलाई हरेक कुरा दृष्टान्तहरूमा दिइएको छ ।
He told them, “The mystery of God's kingdom has been given to you to understand. But outsiders only have the stories,
12 त्यसैले, जब तिनीहरूले हेर्छन्, हो, तिनीहरूले हेर्छन्, तर देख्दैनन्, र जब तिनीहरूले सुन्छन्, हो, तिनीहरूले सुन्छन्, तर बुझ्दैनन्, नत्रता तिनीहरू फर्कन्थे र परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई क्षमा गर्नुहुने थियो ।”
so that even though they see, they don't really ‘see,’ and even though they hear, they don't understand, otherwise they might turn to me and be forgiven.”
13 अनि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “के तिमीहरूले यो दृष्टान्त बुझ्दैनौ? त्यसो भए, तिमीहरूले अरू दृष्टान्तहरू कसरी बुझ्नेछौ?”
“Don't you understand this story?” Jesus asked them. “If you can't, how are you going to understand all the other stories?
14 बिउ छर्नेले वचन छर्छ ।
The sower sows the word.
15 वचन छर्दा बाटोतिर परेका केही बिउ यी नै हुन् । जब तिनीहरूले वचन सुन्छन्, र तुरुन्तै शैतान आउँछ र तिनीहरूमा छरिएका वचन खोसेर लैजान्छ ।
The seeds on the path where the word is sown illustrate those who hear the message, but then Satan immediately comes along and takes away the word that's been sown in them.
16 ढुङ्गेनी जमिनमा छरिएका केही बिउचाहिँ यी नै हुन्, जब तिनीहरूले वचन सुन्छन्, तिनीहरूले यसलाई तुरुन्तै आनन्दसाथ ग्रहण गर्छन् ।
Likewise the seeds on the rocky ground illustrate those who hear the word, and happily accept it right away.
17 तिनीहरूको आफ्नो कुनै जरा हुँदैन, तर केही समयसम्म मात्र टिक्छन् । वचनको कारणले सङ्कष्ट वा सतावट आउँदा तिनीहरूले तुरुन्तै ठेस खान्छन् ।
But since they have no real roots, they only last for a while until trouble or persecution comes, and then they quickly fall away.
18 अरूहरूचाहिँ ती हुन्, जो काँढाका झाङहरूका माझमा छरिएका छन् । तिनीहरूले वचन सुन्छन्,
Those sown among the thorns illustrate those who hear the word,
19 तर संसारको फिक्री, धन-सम्पत्तिको छल र अन्य कुराहरूको लालसा प्रवेश गर्छन् जसले वचनलाई निसासिदिन्छन् र यो फलदायी हुँदैन । (aiōn g165)
but worries of this world, the temptation of wealth, and other distractions choke the growth of the word, and it becomes unproductive. (aiōn g165)
20 असल जमिनमा छरिएका बिउहरूचाहिँ ती नै हुन् । तिनीहरूले वचन सुन्छन्; यसलाई ग्रहण गर्छन् अनि केहीले तिस गुणा, केहीले साठी गुणा र केहीले सय गुणा फल फलाउँछन् ।”
But the seeds sown on good soil illustrate those who hear the word, accept it, and are productive—producing thirty, sixty, and hundred times what was originally sown.
21 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “के तिमीहरूले बत्तीलाई पाथीमुनि अथवा खाटमुनि राख्न घरभित्र ल्याउँछौ? तिमीहरूले यसलाई ल्याउँछौ र सामदानमाथि राख्छौ ।
Who puts a lamp under a bucket, or beneath a bed?” Jesus asked them. “No, you put a lamp up on a lamp-stand.
22 किनभने प्रकट नहुने गरी कुनै पनि कुरा लुकाइएको छैन, र खुलस्त नै नहुने कुनै पनि गुप्त कुरा छैन ।
Everything that is hidden will be revealed, and everything that is secret will be brought out into the open.
23 यदि कसैको सुन्ने कान छ भने, त्यसले सुनोस् ।”
If you have ears to hear, listen to what I'm saying!
24 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूले जे सुन्छौ, किनभने त्यसमा ध्यान देओ, किनभने जुन नापले तिमीहरू नाप्छौ, त्यही नापले तिमीहरूलाई पनि नापिनेछ (मापन गरिनेछ), र यो तिमीहरूलाई थपिनेछ ।
Pay attention to what you're hearing,” he told them, “for you will be given according to how much you want to receive, measure for measure.
25 किनभने जोसँग छ, त्यसलाई अझ बढ्ता गरी दिइनेछ र जोसँग छैन, त्यससँग भएको पनि खोसिनेछ ।”
More will be given to those who already have understanding, but those who don't want to know will have what little understanding they have taken from them.
26 येशूले भन्नुभयो, “परमेश्वरको राज्य जमिनमा बिउ छर्ने मानिसजस्तो हो ।
God's kingdom is like a man sowing seed in the ground,” Jesus said.
27 ऊ रातमा सुत्छ अनि दिन भएपछि उठ्छ, अनि कसरी भयो भन्ने उसले नजाने पनि बिउ उम्रन्छ र बढ्छ ।
“He goes to bed and gets up, day after day, but the man has no knowledge of how the seeds sprout and grow.
28 जमिन आफैँले अन्न (फल) फलाउँछः पहिला टुसा पलाउँछ, त्यसपछि बाला लाग्छ अनि बालामा अन्न पाक्छ ।
The earth produces a harvest by itself. First a shoot appears, then the heads of grain, and then the heads of grain ripen.
29 जब अन्न पाक्छ, तुरुन्तै उसले त्यसलाई हँसियाले काट्छ, किनभने कटनीको समय आएको छ ।”
When the grain is ripe, the farmer reaps it with a sickle, because the harvest is ready.
30 उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “हामीले परमेश्वरको राज्यलाई केसँग तुलना गर्ने अथवा यसलाई व्याख्या गर्न कुन दृष्टान्त प्रयोग गर्न सकिन्छ?
What can we compare God's kingdom to? What illustration shall we use?” he asked.
31 यो रायोको (तोरीको) बिउजस्तो हो । यसलाई छर्दा पृथ्वीका बिउहरूमध्ये यो सबैभन्दा सानो हुन्छ ।
“It's like a mustard seed, the tiniest seed of all.
32 तैपनि यसलाई छरेपछि यो बढ्छ र बगैँचाका सबै बिरुवाभन्दा ठुलो हुन्छ । यसमा ठुला हाँगाहरू पलाउँछ, ताकि आकाशमा उड्ने चराहरूले त्यसको छहारीमा गुँड बनाउन सकून् ।
But when it's sown it grows into a plant that's larger than other plants. It has branches big enough that birds can roost in its shade.”
33 यस्ता धेरै दृष्टान्तद्वारा तिनीहरूले बुझ्न सक्नेसम्म उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई वचन सुनाउनुभयो ।
Jesus used many of these illustrated stories when he spoke to the people so they would understand as much as they could.
34 अनि उहाँले दृष्टान्तविना केही बताउनुभएन । तर उहाँ गुप्तमा हुनुहुँदा उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई सबै कुरा व्याख्या गरिदिनुभयो ।
In fact, when he spoke publicly, he only used stories; however in private he explained everything to his disciples.
35 त्यो दिन जब साँझ पर्यो, उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तालको पारिपट्टि जाऔँ ।”
Later that day, in the evening, he said to his disciples, “Let's go across to the other side of the Sea.”
36 त्यसैले, तिनीहरूले येशूलाई साथैमा लिएर त्यो भिडलाई छोडी राखेर गए, किनकि उहाँ पहिले नै डुङ्गामा हुनुहुन्थ्यो । उहाँसँग अरू डुङ्गाहरू पनि साथमा थिए ।
Leaving the crowd behind, the disciples went with Jesus and got into a boat. Other boats went with them.
37 त्यहाँ भयङ्कर आँधी चल्न थाल्यो र छालहरू डुङ्गामा पस्न लागे, अनि डुङ्गा पानीले भरिन लाग्यो ।
Soon a terrible storm started blowing, and waves crashed against the boat, filling it with water.
38 तर येशू डुङ्गाको पछिल्लो भागमा सिरानी लगाएर मस्त निदाउनुभएको थियो । तिनीहरूले भने, “गुरुज्यू, हामी मर्न लागिसक्दा पनि तपाईंलाई वास्ता छैन?”
Jesus was asleep in the stern, resting his head on a cushion. The disciples woke him up, shouting at him, “Teacher, don't you care that we're about to drown?”
39 अनि उहाँ ब्युँझनुभयो र बतासलाई हप्काउनुभयो अनि समुद्रलाई भन्नुभयो, “शान्त हो र रोकिजा ।” अनि बतास चल्न रोकियो र त्यहाँ सन्नाटा छायो ।
Jesus woke up. He told the wind to die down and told the waves, “Be quiet! Be still.” The wind stopped, and the water became completely calm.
40 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरू किन डराएको? के तिमीहरूसँग अझै विश्वास छैन?”
“Why are you so frightened? Haven't you learned to trust me?” he asked them.
41 तिनीहरू साह्रै डराए र एकले अर्कालाई भने, “यिनी को हुन्, किनभने बतास र समुद्रले पनि यिनले भनेको मान्छन्?”
They were stunned and terrified. They asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”
