मत्ती 12
1 त्यति बेला शबाथको दिनमा येशू अन्नका खेतहरू हुँदै जानुभयो । उहाँका चेलाहरू भोकाए र तिनीहरूले अन्न टिप्दै खान लागे ।
About the same time Jesus walked through the cornfields one Sabbath. His disciples were hungry, and began to pick some ears of wheat and eat them.
2 तर जब फरिसीहरूले त्यो देखे, उनीहरूले येशूलाई भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, जे शबाथमा गर्न अनुचित छ तपाईंका चेलाहरूले त्यही गर्छन् ।”
But, when the Pharisees saw this, they said, ‘Look! Your disciples are doing what it is not allowable to do on a Sabbath!’
3 तर येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “के दाऊदले उनीसँग भएका मानिसहरूले भोकाएको बेलामा के गरे भन्ने कुरा तिमीहरूले कहिल्यै पढेका छैनौ?
‘Haven’t you read,’ replied Jesus, ‘what David did, when he and his companions were hungry –
4 कसरी उनी परमेश्वरको भवनमा पसेर उहाँको उपस्थितिको रोटी खाए, जुन उनी र उनीसँग भएकाहरूका निम्ति खानु अनुचित थियो तर त्यो पुजारीहरूका लागि मात्रै उचित थियो?
how he went into the house of God, and how they ate the consecrated bread, through it was not allowable for him or his companions to eat it, but only for the priests?
5 र शबाथमा पुजारीहरूले त्यस दिनलाई अपवित्र गर्छन्, तरै पनि उनीहरू दोषरहित हुन्छन् भन्ने कुरा के तिमीहरूले व्यवस्थामा पढेका छैनौ र?
And haven’t you read in the law that, on the Sabbath, the priest in the Temple break the Sabbath and yet are not guilty?
6 तर म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, मन्दिरभन्दा महान् एक जना यहाँ हुनुहुन्छ ।
Here, however, I tell you, there is something greater than the Temple!
7 ‘म कृपा चाहन्छु र बलिदान होइन’ भन्ने कुराको अर्थ यदि तिमीहरूले बुझेका भए तिमीहरूले निर्दोषको निन्दा गर्ने थिएनौ ।
Had you learned the meaning of the words – “I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,” you would not have condemned those who are not guilty.
8 किनभने मानिसका पुत्र शबाथका प्रभु हुन् ।”
For the Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.’
9 त्यसपछि येशू त्यहाँबाट अलग्गिनुभयो र तिनीहरूका सभाघरहरूमा जानुभयो ।
Passing on, Jesus went into their synagogue,
10 हेर, त्यहाँ एक जना हात सुकेको व्यक्ति थियो । येशूलाई पापको दोष लगाउन फरिसीहरूले उहाँलाई सोधे, “के शबाथमा निको पार्नु उचित छ?”
and there he saw a man with a withered hand. Some people asked Jesus whether it was allowable to work a cure on the Sabbath – so that they might have a charge to bring against him.
11 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “के तिमीहरूका बिचमा यस्तो व्यक्ति होला जोसँग एउटा मात्र भेडा छ, र यदि शबाथमा त्यो भेडा गहिरो खाल्डोमा खस्यो भने, उसले त्यसलाई समातेर बाहिर ननिकाल्ला?
But Jesus said to them, ‘Which of you, if he had only one sheep, and that sheep fell into a pit on the Sabbath, would not lay hold of it and pull it out?
12 त्यसो भए, एउटा मानिसको मूल्य त्यो भेडाभन्दा कति बढी छ! त्यसैले, शबाथमा असल गर्नु न्यायसङ्गत छ ।”
How much more precious a person is than a sheep! Therefore it is allowable to do good on the Sabbath.’
13 अनि येशूले त्यस व्यक्तिलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिम्रो हात पसार ।” उसले आफ्नो हात पसार्यो, र उसको त्यो हात अर्को हातजस्तै निको भयो ।
Then he said to the man. ‘Stretch out your hand.’ The man stretched it out; and it had become as sound as the other.
14 तर ती फरिसीहरू बाहिर गए र षड्यन्त्र रच्न थाले । तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई कसरी मार्न सकिन्छ भनेर मौका खोज्न थाले ।
On coming out, the Pharisees plotted against Jesus, to put him to death.
15 अनि जब येशूले यो थाहा पाउनुभयो, उहाँ त्यहाँबाट निस्कनुभयो । धेरै मानिसले उहाँलाई पछ्याए र उहाँले तिनीहरू सबैलाई निको पार्नुभयो ।
Jesus, however, became aware of it, and went away from that place. A number of people followed him, and he cured them all;
16 उहाँको बारेमा अरूहरूलाई नभन्नू भनी उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई आदेश दिनुभयो,
but he warned them not to make him known,
17 ताकि यशैया अगमवक्ताद्वारा यसो भनिएको कुरा सत्य साबित होस्,
in fulfilment of these words in the prophet Isaiah –
18 “हेर, मेरो दास जसलाई मैले छानेको छु; मेरा अति प्रिय, जसमा मेरो प्राण प्रसन्न छ । म उनमा मेरा आत्मा खन्याउनेछु, अनि उनले गैरयहूदीहरूलाई न्यायको घोषणा गर्नेछन् ।
“Here is my chosen servant, who I love and who pleases me! I will breathe my spirit on him, and he will announce a time of judgment to the Gentiles.
19 उनले सङ्घर्ष गर्नेछैनन्, न त ठुलो स्वरले कराउनेछन्, न त कसैले गल्लीहरूमा उनको स्वर सुन्नेछ ।
He will not contend, nor cry aloud, Neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets;
20 उनले कुनै फुटेको नरकटलाई भाँच्नेछैनन्; उनले न्यायलाई विजयमा नपुर्याएसम्म उनले कुनै पनि धिपधिप बलिरहेको सलेदोलाई निभाउनेछैनन् ।
a bruised reed he will not break, and a smouldering wick he will not quench, until he has brought the judgment to a victorious issue,
21 अनि उनको नाउँमा गैरयहूदीहरूले विश्वास गर्नेछन् ।”
and on his name will the Gentiles rest their hopes.”
22 अनि भूतात्माले सताएको एक जना अन्धो र बोल्न नसक्ने व्यक्ति येशूकहाँ ल्याइयो । उहाँले त्यसलाई निको पार्नुभयो र फलस्वरूप त्यो बोल्न नसक्ने व्यक्ति बोल्न सक्ने र देख्न सक्ने भयो ।
Then some people brought to Jesus a possessed man, who was blind and dumb; and he cured him, so that the man who had been dumb both talked and saw.
23 सबै भिड छक्क परे र भने, “के यी मानिस दाऊदका पुत्र हुन सक्छन्?”
At this all the people were astounded. ‘Is it possible that this is the son of David?’ they exclaimed.
24 तर जब फरिसीहरूले यस आश्चर्यकर्मको बारेमा सुने, तिनीहरूले भने, “यो मानिसले अरू केही होइन, तर भूतात्माहरूको राजकुमार बालजिबुलद्वारा भूतहरू निकाल्दछ ।”
But the Pharisees heard of it and said, ‘He drives out demons only by the help of Beelzebul the chief of the demons.’
25 तर येशूले तिनीहरूको विचार जान्नुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “आफैँमा विभाजित भएको हरेक राज्यलाई उजाड पारिनेछ, अनि आफैँमा विभाजित भएको हरेक सहर वा घराना टिक्नेछैन ।”
Jesus, however, was aware of what was passing in their minds, and said to them, ‘Any kingdom divided against itself becomes a desolation, and any town or household divided against itself will not last.
26 यदि शैतानले नै शैतानलाई निकाल्दछ भने, त्यो आफैँमा विभाजित हुन्छ । त्यसको राज्य कसरी टिक्ला?
So, if Satan drives Satan out, he must be divided against himself; and how, then, can his kingdom last?
27 अनि म बालजिबुलद्वारा भूतात्माहरू निकाल्छु भने, तिमीहरूलाई पछ्याउनेहरूले कोद्वारा तिनीहरूलाई निकाल्छन् त? यसकारण, तिनीहरू तिमीहरूका न्यायाधीश हुनेछन् ।
And, if it is by Beelzebul’s help that I drive out demons, by whose help is it that your own sons drive them out? Therefore they will themselves be your judges.
28 तर यदि म परमेश्वरको आत्माद्वारा भूतात्माहरू निकाल्छु भने, परमेश्वरको राज्य तिमीहरूमा आएको छ ।
But, if it is by the help of the Spirit of God that I drive out demons, then the kingdom of God must already be upon you.
29 र कुनै मानिसले एक बलियो व्यक्तिलाई पहिले नबाँधेसम्म उसको घरमा छिरेर उसका सामानहरू कसरी चोर्न सक्छ? त्यस बलियो व्यक्तिलाई बाँधेपछि उसको घरका सामानहरू त्यसले चोर्छ ।
How, again, can anyone get into a strong man’s house and carry off his goods, without first securing him? Not until then will he plunder his house.
30 जो मसित छैन ऊ मेरो विरुद्धमा हुन्छ, अनि जसले मसित बटुल्दैन उसले छरपष्ट पार्छ ।
Anyone who is not with me is against me, and the person who does not help me to gather is scattering.
31 त्यसैले म भन्दछु, मानिसले गरेको हरेक पाप र ईश्वर-निन्दा क्षमा हुनेछ, तर पवित्र आत्माको विरुद्धमा गरिएको निन्दा क्षमा हुनेछैन ।
Therefore, I tell you, people will be forgiven every sin and slander; but slander against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
32 अनि जसले परमेश्वरका पुत्रको विरुद्धमा कुनै वचन बोल्छ भने उसलाई क्षमा गरिनेछ । तर जो कोहीले पवित्र आत्माको विरुद्धमा बोल्छ त्यसलाई न यो संसारमा न त आउने संसारमा क्षमा गरिनेछ । (aiōn g165)
Whoever speaks against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in the present age, or in the age to come. (aiōn g165)
33 कि त रुखलाई असल बनाओ र त्यसको फललाई पनि असल बनाओ, वा कि त त्यो रुखलाई खराब बनाओ र त्यसको फललाई पनि खराब बनाओ, किनकि रुख त्यसको फलद्वारा चिनिनेछ ।
‘You must assume either that both tree and fruit are good, or that both tree and fruit are worthless; since it is by its fruits that a tree is known.
34 ए सर्पका सन्तानहरू, तिमीहरू दुष्ट छौ त कसरी असल कुरा बोल्न सक्छौ? किनकि हृदयमा जे छ, त्यही मुखबाट निस्कन्छ ।
You children of snakes! How can you, evil as you are, say anything good? For what fills the heart will rise to the lips.
35 एउटा असल व्यक्तिले आफ्नो हृदयमा रहेको असल कुराले जे असल छ त्यो नै बाहिर ल्याउँछ, अनि एउटा दुष्ट व्यक्तिले आफ्नो हृदयमा रहेको दुष्ट कुराले जे दुष्ट छ त्यो नै बाहिर ल्याउँछ ।
A good person, from his good stores, produces good things; while an evil person, from his evil stores, produces evil things.
36 र म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि न्यायको दिनमा मानिसहरूले आफूले बोल्ने हरेक व्यर्थ वचनको निम्ति लेखा दिनेछन् ।
I tell you that for every careless thing that people say, they must answer on the “day of judgment.”
37 किनकि तिमीहरूका वचनद्वारा नै तिमीहरूको न्याय हुनेछ, अनि तिमीहरूकै वचनद्वारा तिमीहरू दोषी ठहरिनेछौ ।”
For it is by your words that you will be acquitted, and by your words that you will be condemned.’
38 त्यसपछि केही शास्त्रीहरू र फरिसीहरूले येशूलाई उत्तर दिँदै भने, “गुरु, हामी तपाईंबाट केही चिन्हहरू हेर्न चाहन्छौँ ।”
At this point, some teachers of the Law and Pharisees spoke up. ‘Teacher,’ they said, ‘we want to see some sign from you.’
39 तर येशूले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “एउटा दुष्ट र व्यभिचारी पुस्ताले चिन्ह खोज्छ । तर त्यसलाई योना अगमवक्ताको चिन्हबाहेक अरू चिन्ह दिइनेछैन ।
‘It is a wicked and unfaithful generation,’ answered Jesus, ‘that is asking for a sign, and no sign will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.
40 किनकि जसरी योना तिन दिन र तिन रात माछाको पेटमा थिए, त्यसरी नै मानिसका पुत्र तिन दिन र तिन रात पृथ्वीको गर्भभित्र रहनेछन् ।
For, just as Jonah was inside the sea-monster three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41 निनवेका मानिसहरू न्यायको दिनमा यस पुस्तासँग खडा हुनेछन् र यस जातिको निन्दा गर्नेछन् । किनकि योनाको सन्देश सुनेर तिनीहरूले पश्चात्ताप गरेका थिए, र हेर, योनाभन्दा अझै महान् कोही यहाँ छन् ।
At the judgment, the people of Nineveh will stand up with this generation, and will condemn it, because they repented at Jonah’s proclamation; and here is more than a Jonah!
42 दक्षिणकी रानी यस पुस्ताका मानिसहरूसँग न्यायको दिनमा उठ्नेछिन् र यसको निन्दा गर्नेछिन् । तिनी पृथ्वीका कुनाबाट सोलोमनका ज्ञानका कुराहरू सुन्न आइन्, तर हेर, सोलोमनभन्दा महान् कोही यहाँ छन् ।
At the judgment the Queen of the South will rise up with the present generation, and will condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the wisdom of Solomon; and here is more than a Solomon!
43 जब कुनै अशुद्ध आत्माले मानिसलाई छोड्छ, त्यो पानी नभएको ठाउँ हुँदै जान्छ र त्यसले आराम खोज्छ, तर त्यसले त्यो भेट्टाउँदैन ।
No sooner does a foul spirit leave a person, than it passes through places where there is no water, in search of rest, and does not find it.
44 अनि त्यसले भन्छ, ‘म मेरो घरमा फर्कनेछु जहाँबाट म आएँ ।’ फर्किएपछि त्यसले आफ्नो घर सफा गरिएको र मिलाएर राखिएको भेट्टाउँछ ।
Then it says “I will go back to the home which I left”; but, on coming there, it finds it unoccupied, and swept, and put in order.
45 त्यसपछि त्यो गएर आफूभन्दा दुष्ट अरू सात आत्मालाई बटुल्छ अनि तिनीहरू सबै त्यहाँभित्र बस्न आउँछन् । अनि त्यस मानिसको पछिल्लो अवस्था पहिलेको भन्दा अझ खराब हुन्छ । यस दुष्ट पुस्ताको निम्ति ठिक यस्तै हुनेछ ।”
Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in, and make their home there; and the last state of that man proves to be worse than the first. So, too, will it be with this wicked generation.’
46 जब येशू भिडसँग बोल्दै हुनुहुन्थ्यो, हेर, उहाँकी आमा र उहाँको भाइ उहाँसँग बोल्नको निम्ति बाहिर पर्खिरहे ।
While he was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and brothers were standing outside, asking to speak to him.
47 कसैले उहाँलाई भन्यो, “हेर्नुहोस्, तपाईंकी आमा र तपाईंका भाइहरू तपाईंसँग बोल्न बाहिर पर्खिरहनुभएका छन् ।”
Someone told him this, and Jesus replied,
48 तर येशूले उत्तर दिनुभयो र त्यसो भन्ने व्यक्तिलाई भन्नुभयो, “मेरी आमा को हुन्? र मेरा भाइहरू को हुन्?”
‘Who is my mother? And who are my brothers?’
49 अनि उहाँले आफ्नो हात उहाँका चेलाहरूतर्फ पसारेर भन्नुभयो, “हेर, मेरी आमा र मेरा भाइहरू यिनीहरू नै हुन्!
Then, stretching out his hands towards his disciples, he said, ‘Here are my mother and my brothers!
50 किनकि जसले स्वर्गमा हुनुहुने मेरा पिताको इच्छाअनुसार गर्दछ, त्यो मानिस नै मेरो भाइ, मेरी बहिनी र मेरी आमा हुन् ।”
For anyone who does the will of my Father who is in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.’
