1 tataH paraM yihUdIyalOkAstaM hantuM samaihanta tasmAd yIzu ryihUdApradEzE paryyaTituM nEcchan gAlIl pradEzE paryyaTituM prArabhata|
After these things Jesus resided in Galilee: for He would not appear in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill Him.
2 kintu tasmin samayE yihUdIyAnAM dUSyavAsanAmOtsava upasthitE
Now the Jews feast called the feast of tabernacles was near;
3 tasya bhrAtarastam avadan yAni karmmANi tvayA kriyantE tAni yathA tava ziSyAH pazyanti tadarthaM tvamitaH sthAnAd yihUdIyadEzaM vraja|
his brethren therefore said, Depart from hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples there also may see the works which thou performest.
4 yaH kazcit svayaM pracikAziSati sa kadApi guptaM karmma na karOti yadIdRzaM karmma karOSi tarhi jagati nijaM paricAyaya|
For no man doth any thing in secret, who is himself desirous to be known in public. As thou dost these wonderful things, make thyself known to the world.
5 yatastasya bhrAtarOpi taM na vizvasanti|
For neither did his brethren believe in Him.
6 tadA yIzustAn avOcat mama samaya idAnIM nOpatiSThati kintu yuSmAkaM samayaH satatam upatiSThati|
Then saith Jesus unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is always alike ready; for the world cannot hate you:
7 jagatO lOkA yuSmAn RtIyituM na zakruvanti kintu mAmEva RtIyantE yatastESAM karmANi duSTAni tatra sAkSyamidam ahaM dadAmi|
but me it hates, because I bear my testimony concerning it, that it's deeds are evil.
8 ataEva yUyam utsavE'smin yAta nAham idAnIm asminnutsavE yAmi yatO mama samaya idAnIM na sampUrNaH|
Go ye up to this feast as soon as ye please; for I am not yet going up to it, because my time is not yet fully come.
9 iti vAkyam ukttvA sa gAlIli sthitavAn
And after He had said these things unto them, He stayed a while in Galilee.
10 kintu tasya bhrAtRSu tatra prasthitESu satsu sO'prakaTa utsavam agacchat|
But when his brethren were gone up, then He also went up to the feast, not in a public manner but as it were in private.
11 anantaram utsavam upasthitA yihUdIyAstaM mRgayitvApRcchan sa kutra?
The Jews therefore sought for Him at the feast, and said, Where is He?
12 tatO lOkAnAM madhyE tasmin nAnAvidhA vivAdA bhavitum ArabdhavantaH| kEcid avOcan sa uttamaH puruSaH kEcid avOcan na tathA varaM lOkAnAM bhramaM janayati|
And there was much murmuring among the people concerning Him: for some said, He is a good man; others said, No: He deceiveth the people.
13 kintu yihUdIyAnAM bhayAt kOpi tasya pakSE spaSTaM nAkathayat|
No one however spake openly in favor of Him, for fear of the Jews.
14 tataH param utsavasya madhyasamayE yIzu rmandiraM gatvA samupadizati sma|
But when it was now about the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
15 tatO yihUdIyA lOkA AzcaryyaM jnjAtvAkathayan ESA mAnuSO nAdhItyA katham EtAdRzO vidvAnabhUt?
And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, who never learnt?
16 tadA yIzuH pratyavOcad upadEzOyaM na mama kintu yO mAM prESitavAn tasya|
Jesus answered them and said, The doctrine that I teach is not mine, but his that sent me.
17 yO janO nidEzaM tasya grahISyati mamOpadEzO mattO bhavati kim IzvarAd bhavati sa ganastajjnjAtuM zakSyati|
If any man desire to do his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
18 yO janaH svataH kathayati sa svIyaM gauravam IhatE kintu yaH prErayitu rgauravam IhatE sa satyavAdI tasmin kOpyadharmmO nAsti|
He, that speaketh from himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of Him that sent him is true, and there is no imposture in him.
19 mUsA yuSmabhyaM vyavasthAgranthaM kiM nAdadAt? kintu yuSmAkaM kOpi tAM vyavasthAM na samAcarati| mAM hantuM kutO yatadhvE?
Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you observeth the law? wherefore else do ye seek to kill me?
20 tadA lOkA avadan tvaM bhUtagrastastvAM hantuM kO yatatE?
The people answered and said, Thou art possessed by a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?
21 tatO yIzuravOcad EkaM karmma mayAkAri tasmAd yUyaM sarvva mahAzcaryyaM manyadhvE|
Jesus answered and said unto them, I performed one miracle on the sabbath, and ye are all amazed at it.
22 mUsA yuSmabhyaM tvakchEdavidhiM pradadau sa mUsAtO na jAtaH kintu pitRpuruSEbhyO jAtaH tEna vizrAmavArE'pi mAnuSANAM tvakchEdaM kurutha|
Now Moses gave you the law of circumcision, (not that it is originally from Moses, but from the patriarchs, ) and ye circumcise even on the sabbath:
23 ataEva vizrAmavArE manuSyANAM tvakchEdE kRtE yadi mUsAvyavasthAmagganaM na bhavati tarhi mayA vizrAmavArE mAnuSaH sampUrNarUpENa svasthO'kAri tatkAraNAd yUyaM kiM mahyaM kupyatha?
if then a man receive circumcision on the sabbath-day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are ye angry with me, because I made a man perfectly well on the sabbath-day?
24 sapakSapAtaM vicAramakRtvA nyAyyaM vicAraM kuruta|
Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgement.
25 tadA yirUzAlam nivAsinaH katipayajanA akathayan imE yaM hantuM cESTantE sa EvAyaM kiM na?
Therefore some of those of Jerusalem said, Is not this He whom they seek to put to death?
26 kintu pazyata nirbhayaH san kathAM kathayati tathApi kimapi a vadantyEtE ayamEvAbhiSikttO bhavatIti nizcitaM kimadhipatayO jAnanti?
and here He talketh openly, and they say nothing to Him: Do the rulers indeed know, that this is in truth the Messiah?
27 manujOyaM kasmAdAgamad iti vayaM jAnOmaH kintvabhiSiktta AgatE sa kasmAdAgatavAn iti kOpi jnjAtuM na zakSyati|
But we know whence this man is; whereas when Christ cometh, no one knoweth whence He is.
28 tadA yIzu rmadhyEmandiram upadizan uccaiHkAram ukttavAn yUyaM kiM mAM jAnItha? kasmAccAgatOsmi tadapi kiM jAnItha? nAhaM svata AgatOsmi kintu yaH satyavAdI saEva mAM prESitavAn yUyaM taM na jAnItha|
Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me, ye say, and ye know whence I am: now I am not come of myself, but He that sent me is true, whom ye know not.
29 tamahaM jAnE tEnAhaM prErita agatOsmi|
But I know Him, for I am from Him, and He hath sent me.
30 tasmAd yihUdIyAstaM dharttum udyatAstathApi kOpi tasya gAtrE hastaM nArpayad yatO hEtOstadA tasya samayO nOpatiSThati|
They sought therefore to seize Him, but no one laid hand on Him, because his hour was not yet come.
31 kintu bahavO lOkAstasmin vizvasya kathitavAntO'bhiSikttapuruSa Agatya mAnuSasyAsya kriyAbhyaH kim adhikA AzcaryyAH kriyAH kariSyati?
And many of the people believed on Him, and said, When the Messiah cometh, will He do more miracles than this man hath done?
32 tataH paraM lOkAstasmin itthaM vivadantE phirUzinaH pradhAnayAjakAnjcEti zrutavantastaM dhRtvA nEtuM padAtigaNaM prESayAmAsuH|
Now the pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning Him: and they, with the chief priests, sent officers to seize Him.
33 tatO yIzuravadad aham alpadinAni yuSmAbhiH sArddhaM sthitvA matprErayituH samIpaM yAsyAmi|
Therefore Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while I am to be among you, and then I shall go to Him that sent me.
34 mAM mRgayiSyadhvE kintUddEzaM na lapsyadhvE ratra sthAsyAmi tatra yUyaM gantuM na zakSyatha|
Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am to be, ye cannot come.
35 tadA yihUdIyAH parasparaM vakttumArEbhirE asyOddEzaM na prApsyAma EtAdRzaM kiM sthAnaM yAsyati? bhinnadEzE vikIrNAnAM yihUdIyAnAM sannidhim ESa gatvA tAn upadEkSyati kiM?
Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will He go, that we shall not find Him? will He go to them that are dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
36 nO cEt mAM gavESayiSyatha kintUddEzaM na prApsyatha ESa kOdRzaM vAkyamidaM vadati?
What is the meaning of this speech, that He said, "Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am to be, ye cannot come?"
37 anantaram utsavasya caramE'hani arthAt pradhAnadinE yIzuruttiSThan uccaiHkAram Ahvayan uditavAn yadi kazcit tRSArttO bhavati tarhi mamAntikam Agatya pivatu|
And on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, If any one thirst, let him come unto me and drink.
38 yaH kazcinmayi vizvasiti dharmmagranthasya vacanAnusArENa tasyAbhyantaratO'mRtatOyasya srOtAMsi nirgamiSyanti|
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, rivers of living water shall flow from within him.
39 yE tasmin vizvasanti ta AtmAnaM prApsyantItyarthE sa idaM vAkyaM vyAhRtavAn EtatkAlaM yAvad yIzu rvibhavaM na prAptastasmAt pavitra AtmA nAdIyata|
(This He spake of the Spirit, which they that believe on Him should receive; for the holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.)
40 EtAM vANIM zrutvA bahavO lOkA avadan ayamEva nizcitaM sa bhaviSyadvAdI|
Many of the people therefore, when they heard this discourse, said, This is in truth a prophet.
41 kEcid akathayan ESaEva sObhiSikttaH kintu kEcid avadan sObhiSikttaH kiM gAlIl pradEzE janiSyatE?
Others said, This is the Messiah. But some said, Shall the Messiah come out of Galilee?
42 sObhiSikttO dAyUdO vaMzE dAyUdO janmasthAnE baitlEhami pattanE janiSyatE dharmmagranthE kimitthaM likhitaM nAsti?
Hath not the Scripture said, that Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the town whence David was.
43 itthaM tasmin lOkAnAM bhinnavAkyatA jAtA|
So there was a division among the people about Him.
44 katipayalOkAstaM dharttum aicchan tathApi tadvapuSi kOpi hastaM nArpayat|
And some among them would have seized Him: but no one laid hands on Him.
45 anantaraM pAdAtigaNE pradhAnayAjakAnAM phirUzinAnjca samIpamAgatavati tE tAn apRcchan kutO hEtOstaM nAnayata?
Then came the officers to the chief priests and pharisees, and they said, Why have ye not brought Him? and the officers answered,
46 tadA padAtayaH pratyavadan sa mAnava iva kOpi kadApi nOpAdizat|
Never man spake like this man.
47 tataH phirUzinaH prAvOcan yUyamapi kimabhrAmiSTa?
The pharisees therefore answered them, Are ye also deceived?
48 adhipatInAM phirUzinAnjca kOpi kiM tasmin vyazvasIt?
have any of the rulers believed on Him, or of the pharisees?
49 yE zAstraM na jAnanti ta imE'dhamalOkAEva zApagrastAH|
but these people, who know not the law, are cursed.
50 tadA nikadImanAmA tESAmEkO yaH kSaNadAyAM yIzOH sannidhim agAt sa ukttavAn
Upon this Nicodemus, (who came to Him by night)
51 tasya vAkyE na zrutE karmmaNi ca na viditE 'smAkaM vyavasthA kiM kanjcana manujaM dOSIkarOti?
being one of them, saith to them, Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he hath done?
52 tatastE vyAharan tvamapi kiM gAlIlIyalOkaH? vivicya pazya galIli kOpi bhaviSyadvAdI nOtpadyatE|
They replied, Art thou also of Galilee? Search and see: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
53 tataH paraM sarvvE svaM svaM gRhaM gatAH kintu yIzu rjaitunanAmAnaM zilOccayaM gatavAn|
And every man went to his own house.
