< मत्ती 8 >
1 जब येशू डाँडाबाट तल ओर्लनुभएको थियो, ठुलो भिडले उहाँलाई पछ्यायो ।
When Jesus went down from the hillside, large crowds followed him.
2 हेर, एक जना कुष्ठरोगी उहाँको नजिक आयो र उहाँको अगि घोप्टो पर्यो, र भन्यो, “हे प्रभु, तपाईंले इच्छा गर्नुभयो भने, मलाई शुद्ध पार्न सक्नुहुन्छ ।”
[After he left the crowds], a man who had [the skin disease called] leprosy unexpectedly came and knelt before him. He said [to Jesus], “Lord/Sir, [please heal me, because I know] you are able to heal me if you are willing to.”
3 येशूले आफ्नो हात पसार्नुभयो र उसलाई छुनुभयो, र भन्नुभयो, “म चाहन्छु । तिमी शुद्ध होऊ ।” तब तुरून्तै आफ्नो कुष्ठरोगबाट ऊ शुद्ध भयो ।
Then Jesus, [disregarding the religious law that forbade people to come close to lepers], stretched out his hand and touched the man. He said [to him], “I am willing to [heal you], and I heal you [now]!” Immediately the man was healed from his leprosy {he was no longer a leper}.
4 येशूले उसलाई भन्नुभयो, “हेर, कुनै पनि मानिसलाई केही नभन्नू । आफ्नो बाटो लाग; आफैँलाई पुजारीकहाँ प्रकट गराऊ र तिनीहरूको अगि गवाही होस् भनेर मोशाले आज्ञा गरेअनुसार भेटी चढाऊ ।”
Then Jesus said to him, “Go and show yourself to a [nearby] priest [so that he can examine you and verify that you no longer have leprosy]. [Then], after he tells [the local people], they will know [that you no longer have leprosy], [and you will be able to associate with them again]. Make sure that [now] you do not report [about my healing you] to anyone [other than the priest]. Then go [to the Temple in Jerusalem and give the priest] the offering that Moses commanded [that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer] as a sacrifice to God.”
5 जब येशू कर्फनहुममा प्रवेश गर्नुभएको थियो, एक जना कप्तान उहाँकहाँ आएर उहाँलाई सोधे,
When Jesus went to Capernaum [city], a [Roman] officer who commanded 100 soldiers came to him. He begged Jesus [to help him].
6 “हे प्रभु, मेरो एक जना नोकर पक्षाघातले ग्रसित भएर घरमा पल्टिरहेको छ र ऊ भयानक पीडामा छ ।”
He said [to him], “Sir, my servant is lying [in bed] at home and is paralyzed, and he has severe pain.”
7 येशूले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “म आएर उसलाई निको पार्नेछु ।”
Jesus said [to him], “I will go [to your house] and heal him.”
8 कप्तानले जवाफ दिए र भने, “प्रभु, तपाईं मेरो घरको छानामुनि आउनको निम्ति म योग्यको छैनँ । तपाईंले केवल वचन मात्र बोलिदिनुहोस् र मेरो नोकर निको हुनेछ ।
But the officer said [to him], “Lord/Sir, [do not bother to go. I am a non-Jew], so I am not worthy for you, [a Jew], to come into my house [MTY] [and associate with me]. Instead, [just] command [that] my servant [be healed], and he will be healed.
9 किनकि म पनि एउटा यस्तो मानिस हुँ जो अधिकारको मुनि राखिएको छु, र मेरो मुनि पनि सिपाहीहरू छन् । म एक जनालाई ‘जाऊ’ भन्छु र ऊ जान्छ, र अर्कोलाई ‘आऊ’ भन्छु र ऊ आउँछ, अनि मेरो नोकरलाई ‘त्यो गर’ भन्छु र उसले त्यो गर्छ ।”
I [believe this] because, as for me, I am a man under the authority of others, and I also have soldiers under my authority. When I say to one of them ‘Go!’ he goes. When I say to another ‘Come!’ he comes. When I say to my slave, ‘Do this!’ he does it. [And I believe that you speak with a similar kind of authority].”
10 जब येशूले यो सुन्नुभयो, उहाँ छक्क पर्नुभयो र उहाँलाई पछ्याउनेहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “साँच्चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्छु, इस्राएलमा पनि मैले यस्तो विश्वास भएको कोही पाएको थिइनँ ।
When Jesus heard this, he marveled. He said to the crowd that was walking with him, “Listen to this: I have never before found anyone who has as firm a faith [in me as this non-Jewish man has]. Not even in Israel, [where I would expect people to believe in me], have I found anyone who has the kind of faith in me that he has!
11 म तिमीहरूलाई भन्छु, धेरै जना पूर्व र पश्चिमबाट आउनेछन्, अनि तिनीहरू अब्राहाम, इसहाक र याकूबसँग स्वर्गीय राज्यको भोजमा बस्नेछन् ।
I tell you truly that many [other non-Jewish people] who [will believe in me like this Roman officer] will come from [distant countries, including] those [far] to the east and far to the west [SYN], and they will sit down to eat with [MTY] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in heaven, where God rules.
12 तर राज्यका छोराहरू बाहिर अन्धकारमा फालिनेछन्, जहाँ रुवाबासी र दाह्रा किटाइ हुनेछ ।”
But [the Jews] [IDM] [who should have allowed] God to rule over them will be sent to [hell, where there is] total darkness. And as a result, they will weep [because of their suffering] and will grind their teeth [because they will have severe pain] [MTY].” ()
13 येशूले त्यस कप्तानलाई भन्नुभयो, “जाऊ । तिमीले विश्वास गरेजस्तै तिम्रो निम्ति गरियोस् ।” अनि त्यही घडी तिनको नोकर निको भयो ।
Then Jesus said to the officer, “Go [home]. What you believed [would happen], [that I would heal your servant from a distance], will happen.” [Then the officer went home and found out that] his servant became well at the exact time [that Jesus told him that he would heal him].
14 जब येशू पत्रुसको घरमा आउनुभयो, उहाँले पत्रुसकी सासू ज्वरोले बिरामी भई थला परिरहेकी देख्नुभयो ।
When Jesus [and some of his disciples] went to the home of Peter, Jesus saw Peter’s mother-in-law. She was lying on a bed because she had a fever.
15 येशूले तिनको हातमा छुनुभयो, अनि ज्वरोले तिनलाई छोड्यो । त्यसपछि तिनी उठिन् र उहाँको सेवा गर्न थालिन् ।
He touched her hand, and as a result, [immediately] she no longer had a fever [PRS]. Then she got up and served them [some food].
16 जब साँझ पर्यो, मानिसहरूले भूतात्मा लागेका धेरै मानिसहरूलाई येशूकहाँ ल्याए । उहाँले एउटै वचनबाट भूतात्माहरूलाई बाहिर निकाल्नुभयो र सबै बिरामीलाई निको पार्नुभयो ।
That evening [when] ([the Sabbath/the Jewish rest day]) [ended and restrictions about traveling ended], many people who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled} [and people who were sick] [MTY] [were] brought to Jesus. He caused the demons to leave just by speaking to them, and he healed all the people who were sick.
17 यसरी यशैया अगमवक्ताद्वारा भनिएको यस्तो वचन पुरा भयो, “उहाँ आफैँले नै हाम्रा बिमारीहरू लिनुभयो र हाम्रा रोगहरू वहन गर्नुभयो ।”
By doing this he fulfilled the words that had been said by the prophet Isaiah {that the prophet Isaiah had said} [about the Messiah]: “He healed people who had sicknesses and he cured them of their diseases.” [DOU]
18 जब येशूले भिडलाई आफ्नो वरिपरि देख्नुभयो, उहाँले गालील समुद्रको अर्कोपट्टि जानको निम्ति निर्देशन दिनुभयो ।
Jesus saw the crowd around him, but [he needed to rest]. So he told [his disciples to take him by boat] to the other side [of the lake].
19 त्यसपछि एक जना शास्त्री आएर उहाँलाई भने, “गुरुज्यू, तपाईं जहाँ जानुहुन्छ म तपाईंलाई त्यहीँ पछ्याउनेछु ।”
[As they were walking toward the boat], a man who taught the [Jewish] laws came to him and said, “Teacher, I will go with you wherever you go.”
20 येशूले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “स्यालहरूका दुला छन्, र आकाशका चराचुरूङ्गीहरूका गुँडहरू छन्, तर मानिसका पुत्रको त आफ्नो शिर राख्ने ठाउँ कहीँ छैन ।”
[In order that the man might know what he could expect if he went with him], Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes [in the ground in which to live], and birds have nests, but [even though I] am the one who came from heaven, I do not have a home where I can sleep [MTY].”
21 चेलाहरूमध्ये एक जनाले उहाँलाई भने, “प्रभु, पहिले मलाई गएर मेरो बुबालाई गाड्न दिनुहोस् ।”
Another man who was one of Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Sir/Lord, permit me first to go [home. After] my father [dies I will] bury him, [and then I will come with you].”
22 तर येशूले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “मलाई पछ्याऊ, र मुर्दाले नै मुर्दालाई गाड्न छोडिदेऊ ।”
But Jesus said to him, “Come with me [now]. [God considers that people who do not have eternal life are] dead [MET]. Let those people [do the work of] burying people who die.”
23 जब येशू डुङ्गामा चढ्नुभएको थियो, उहाँका चेलाहरूले पनि उहाँलाई भित्रसम्म पछ्याए ।
Then Jesus got into the boat. The disciples also got [in, and] they [started sailing close to the shoreline around Lake Galilee].
24 हेर, समुद्रमा प्रचण्ड आँधीबेहरी चल्यो, अनि त्यो डुङ्गा समुद्रको छालद्वारा छोपियो । तर येशू सुतिरहनुभएको थियो ।
Suddenly strong winds blew on the lake, and very high waves were splashing into the boat and filling it. But Jesus was sleeping.
25 चेलाहरू उहाँकहाँ आए र उहाँलाई यसो भनी उठाउन लागे, “हे प्रभु, हामीलाई बचाउनुहोस्, हामी मर्नै लागेका छौँ!”
They went and woke him up, and said [to him], “Sir/Lord, rescue [us!] We are about to drown!”
26 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “ए अल्पविश्वासीहरू, तिमीहरू किन डराउँछौँ?” त्यसपछि उहाँ उठ्नुभयो अनि आँधी र समुद्रलाई हकार्नुभयो । त्यसपछि त्यहाँ पुरै शान्ति छायो ।
He said [to them], “(You should not be terrified!/Why are you terrified?) [RHQ] I [am disappointed that in spite of all you have seen me do], (you do not believe very much [that I can rescue you./] you not believe [that I can rescue you]?) [RHQ]” Then he got up and rebuked the wind and told the waves to calm down. And [the wind stopped blowing and the lake] became calm.
27 ती मानिसहरू छक्क परे र भने, “उहाँ कस्तो मानिस हुनुहुन्छ, कि समुद्र र आँधीले पनि उहाँको आज्ञा मान्छन्?”
[As a result], they were amazed, and they said [to one another], “This man is certainly an [extraordinary] person [RHQ]! [All things are under his control!] Even the winds and the waves obey him [PRS]!”
28 जब येशू समुद्रको पारिपट्टि र गदरिनीहरूको देशमा आउनुभएको थियो, दुई जना भूतात्मा लागेका मानिसले उहाँलाई भेटे । तिनीहरू चिहानबाट निस्केर आइरहेका थिए र धेरै हिंसात्मक थिए । त्यसकारण, त्यो बाटो भएर कोही पनि यात्रु जान सक्दैन थियो ।
When they came to the [east] side [of the lake], they arrived in the region where the Gadarenes [lived]. [Jesus got out of the boat and began walking on the road. Then] two men who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled} came out of the burial caves [where they were living]. Because they were extremely violent [and attacked people], no one dared to travel on the road [near where they were living].
29 हेर, तिनीहरूले ठुलो स्वरले कराए र भने, “हे परमेश्वरका पुत्र, तपाईंसँग हाम्रो के सरोकार? के तोकिएको समयभन्दा पहिले नै तपाईं यहाँ हामीलाई दुःख दिन आउनुभएको हो?
Suddenly they shouted [to Jesus], “You are the Son of God! [Because] you have nothing in common with us [IDM, RHQ], [leave us alone] Have you come here [RHQ] to torture us before the time [MTY] [God has appointed to punish us]?”
30 त्यहाँ नजिकै धेरै सुँगुरहरूको एउटा बथान चरिरहेको थियो ।
There was a large herd of pigs not far away, digging for food with their noses.
31 ती भूतात्माहरूले उहाँलाई बिन्ती गरिरहे र भने, “यदि तपाईंले हामीलाई बाहिर निकाल्नुहुन्छ भने, हामीलाई सुँगुरहरूको बथानमा पठाइदिनुहोस् ।”
So the demons begged Jesus, saying, “You are going to cast us out of the men, so send us into the herd of pigs!”
32 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “जा!” ती भूतात्माहरू बाहिर निस्के र सुँगुरहरूभित्र पसे । अनि हेर, सबै सुँगुर त्यो भिरालो पहाडको तल दौडे र समुद्रमा खसे अनि तिनीहरू पानीमा डुबेर मरे ।
Jesus said [to them], “[If that is what you want], go!” So the demons left [the men] and entered the pigs. Suddenly the whole herd [of pigs] rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
33 सुँगुरहरू चराइरहेका मानिसहरू त्यहाँबाट दौडेर गए । अनि जब तिनीहरू सहरमा गए, तिनीहरूले सबै कुरा बताइदिए, र विशेष गरी भूतात्मा लागेका मानिसहरूलाई के भएको थियो सो बताइदिए ।
The men who were tending the pigs [became afraid and] ran into the town and reported everything [that had happened], including what had happened to the two men who had been controlled by demons {whom demons had controlled}.
34 हेर, पुरै सहर येशूलाई भेट्न आयो । जब तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई देखे, तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई तिनीहरूको इलाका छोडेर त्यहाँबाट जान अनुरोध गरे ।
Then [it seemed as if] all [the people] [HYP] [who lived in] that town [MTY] went to meet Jesus. When they saw him [and the two men who had been controlled by the demons], they begged Jesus to leave their region [because they thought that he would destroy more things than just the pigs] (OR, [because they realized he must be very powerful]).
