At that time, Yeshua went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
2 tad vilOkya phirUzinO yIzuM jagaduH, pazya vizrAmavArE yat karmmAkarttavyaM tadEva tava ziSyAH kurvvanti|
But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, "Look, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath."
3 sa tAn pratyAvadata, dAyUd tatsagginazca bubhukSitAH santO yat karmmAkurvvan tat kiM yuSmAbhi rnApAThi?
But he said to them, "Have you not read what Dawid did, when he and his companions were hungry;
4 yE darzanIyAH pUpAH yAjakAn vinA tasya tatsaggimanujAnAnjcAbhOjanIyAsta IzvarAvAsaM praviSTEna tEna bhuktAH|
how he entered into the house of God, and they ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for those who were with him, but only for the priests?
5 anyacca vizrAmavArE madhyEmandiraM vizrAmavArIyaM niyamaM lagvantOpi yAjakA nirdOSA bhavanti, zAstramadhyE kimidamapi yuSmAbhi rna paThitaM?
Or have you not read in the Law, that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are blameless?
6 yuSmAnahaM vadAmi, atra sthAnE mandirAdapi garIyAn Eka AstE|
But I tell you that something greater than the temple is here.
7 kintu dayAyAM mE yathA prIti rna tathA yajnjakarmmaNi| EtadvacanasyArthaM yadi yuyam ajnjAsiSTa tarhi nirdOSAn dOSiNO nAkArSTa|
But if you had known what this means, 'I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the innocent.
8 anyacca manujasutO vizrAmavArasyApi patirAstE|
For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."
9 anantaraM sa tatsthAnAt prasthAya tESAM bhajanabhavanaM praviSTavAn, tadAnIm EkaH zuSkakarAmayavAn upasthitavAn|
And he departed from there and went into their synagogue.
10 tatO yIzum apavadituM mAnuSAH papracchuH, vizrAmavArE nirAmayatvaM karaNIyaM na vA?
And look, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?" that they might accuse him.
11 tEna sa pratyuvAca, vizrAmavArE yadi kasyacid avi rgarttE patati, tarhi yastaM ghRtvA na tOlayati, EtAdRzO manujO yuSmAkaM madhyE ka AstE?
And he said to them, "Which one of you who has one sheep, if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not take hold of it and lift it out?
12 avE rmAnavaH kiM nahi zrEyAn? atO vizrAmavArE hitakarmma karttavyaM|
Of how much more value then is a person than a sheep. Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."
13 anantaraM sa taM mAnavaM gaditavAn, karaM prasAraya; tEna karE prasAritE sOnyakaravat svasthO'bhavat|
Then he told the man, "Stretch out your hand." And he stretched it out, and it was restored whole, just like the other.
14 tadA phirUzinO bahirbhUya kathaM taM haniSyAma iti kumantraNAM tatprAtikUlyEna cakruH|
But the Pharisees went out, and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.
15 tatO yIzustad viditvA sthanAntaraM gatavAn; anyESu bahunarESu tatpazcAd gatESu tAn sa nirAmayAn kRtvA ityAjnjApayat,
But Yeshua, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Large crowds followed him, and he healed them all,
16 yUyaM mAM na paricAyayata|
and commanded them that they should not make him known.
17 tasmAt mama prIyO manOnItO manasastuSTikArakaH| madIyaH sEvakO yastu vidyatE taM samIkSatAM| tasyOpari svakIyAtmA mayA saMsthApayiSyatE| tEnAnyadEzajAtESu vyavasthA saMprakAzyatE|
This was to fulfill what had been spoken through Eshaya the prophet, saying,
18 kEnApi na virOdhaM sa vivAdanjca kariSyati| na ca rAjapathE tEna vacanaM zrAvayiSyatE|
"Look, my servant whom I have chosen; my beloved in whom my soul delights. I will put my Rukha on him; and he will proclaim justice to the nations.
19 vyavasthA calitA yAvat nahi tEna kariSyatE| tAvat nalO vidIrNO'pi bhaMkSyatE nahi tEna ca| tathA sadhUmavarttinjca na sa nirvvApayiSyatE|
He will not quarrel, nor shout; nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
20 pratyAzAnjca kariSyanti tannAmni bhinnadEzajAH|
He won't break a bruised reed. And he won't put out a smoldering wick, until he leads justice to victory.
21 yAnyEtAni vacanAni yizayiyabhaviSyadvAdinA prOktAnyAsan, tAni saphalAnyabhavan|
And in his name the coastlands will hope."
22 anantaraM lOkai statsamIpam AnItO bhUtagrastAndhamUkaikamanujastEna svasthIkRtaH, tataH sO'ndhO mUkO draSTuM vaktunjcArabdhavAn|
Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him and he healed him, so that the mute man spoke and saw.
23 anEna sarvvE vismitAH kathayAnjcakruH, ESaH kiM dAyUdaH santAnO nahi?
And all the crowds were amazed, and said, "Can this be the son of Dawid?"
24 kintu phirUzinastat zrutvA gaditavantaH, bAlsibUbnAmnO bhUtarAjasya sAhAyyaM vinA nAyaM bhUtAn tyAjayati|
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, "This man does not cast out demons, except by Baelzebub, the prince of the demons."
25 tadAnIM yIzustESAm iti mAnasaM vijnjAya tAn avadat kinjcana rAjyaM yadi svavipakSAd bhidyatE, tarhi tat ucchidyatE; yacca kinjcana nagaraM vA gRhaM svavipakSAd vibhidyatE, tat sthAtuM na zaknOti|
And knowing their thoughts, he said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
26 tadvat zayatAnO yadi zayatAnaM bahiH kRtvA svavipakSAt pRthak pRthak bhavati, tarhi tasya rAjyaM kEna prakArENa sthAsyati?
And if Satana casts out Satana, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
27 ahanjca yadi bAlsibUbA bhUtAn tyAjayAmi, tarhi yuSmAkaM santAnAH kEna bhUtAn tyAjayanti? tasmAd yuSmAkam EtadvicArayitArasta Eva bhaviSyanti|
If I by Baelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
28 kintavahaM yadIzvarAtmanA bhUtAn tyAjayAmi, tarhIzvarasya rAjyaM yuSmAkaM sannidhimAgatavat|
But if I by the Rukha of God cast out demons, then the Kingdom of God has come upon you.
29 anyanjca kOpi balavanta janaM prathamatO na badvvA kEna prakArENa tasya gRhaM pravizya taddravyAdi lOThayituM zaknOti? kintu tat kRtvA tadIyagRsya dravyAdi lOThayituM zaknOti|
Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man, and carry off his possessions, unless he first bind the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.
30 yaH kazcit mama svapakSIyO nahi sa vipakSIya AstE, yazca mayA sAkaM na saMgRhlAti, sa vikirati|
"He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me, scatters.
31 ataEva yuSmAnahaM vadAmi, manujAnAM sarvvaprakArapApAnAM nindAyAzca marSaNaM bhavituM zaknOti, kintu pavitrasyAtmanO viruddhanindAyA marSaNaM bhavituM na zaknOti|
Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Rukha will not be forgiven.
32 yO manujasutasya viruddhAM kathAM kathayati, tasyAparAdhasya kSamA bhavituM zaknOti, kintu yaH kazcit pavitrasyAtmanO viruddhAM kathAM kathayati nEhalOkE na prEtya tasyAparAdhasya kSamA bhavituM zaknOti| (aiōn g165)
And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Rukha d'Qudsha, it will not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
33 pAdapaM yadi bhadraM vadatha, tarhi tasya phalamapi sAdhu vaktavyaM, yadi ca pAdapaM asAdhuM vadatha, tarhi tasya phalamapyasAdhu vaktavyaM; yataH svIyasvIyaphalEna pAdapaH paricIyatE|
"Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.
34 rE bhujagavaMzA yUyamasAdhavaH santaH kathaM sAdhu vAkyaM vaktuM zakSyatha? yasmAd antaHkaraNasya pUrNabhAvAnusArAd vadanAd vacO nirgacchati|
You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
35 tEna sAdhurmAnavO'ntaHkaraNarUpAt sAdhubhANPAgArAt sAdhu dravyaM nirgamayati, asAdhurmAnuSastvasAdhubhANPAgArAd asAdhuvastUni nirgamayati|
The good person out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil person out of his evil treasure brings out evil things.
36 kintvahaM yuSmAn vadAmi, manujA yAvantyAlasyavacAMsi vadanti, vicAradinE taduttaramavazyaM dAtavyaM,
But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.
37 yatastvaM svIyavacObhi rniraparAdhaH svIyavacObhizca sAparAdhO gaNiSyasE|
For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."
38 tadAnIM katipayA upAdhyAyAH phirUzinazca jagaduH, hE gurO vayaM bhavattaH kinjcana lakSma didRkSAmaH|
Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees said to him, "Teacher, we want to see a sign from you."
39 tadA sa pratyuktavAn, duSTO vyabhicArI ca vaMzO lakSma mRgayatE, kintu bhaviSyadvAdinO yUnasO lakSma vihAyAnyat kimapi lakSma tE na pradarzayiSyantE|
But he answered and said to them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given it but the sign of Yaunan the prophet.
40 yatO yUnam yathA tryahOrAtraM bRhanmInasya kukSAvAsIt, tathA manujaputrOpi tryahOrAtraM mEdinyA madhyE sthAsyati|
For as Yaunan was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41 aparaM nInivIyA mAnavA vicAradina EtadvaMzIyAnAM pratikUlam utthAya tAn dOSiNaH kariSyanti, yasmAttE yUnasa upadEzAt manAMsi parAvarttayAnjcakrirE, kintvatra yUnasOpi gurutara Eka AstE|
The people of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Yaunan; and look, something greater than Yaunan is here.
42 punazca dakSiNadEzIyA rAjnjI vicAradina EtadvaMzIyAnAM pratikUlamutthAya tAn dOSiNaH kariSyati yataH sA rAjnjI sulEmanO vidyAyAH kathAM zrOtuM mEdinyAH sImna Agacchat, kintu sulEmanOpi gurutara EkO janO'tra AstE|
The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for she came from a distant land to hear the wisdom of Shelemun; and look, someone greater than Shelemun is here.
43 aparaM manujAd bahirgatO 'pavitrabhUtaH zuSkasthAnEna gatvA vizrAmaM gavESayati, kintu tadalabhamAnaH sa vakti, yasmA; nikEtanAd AgamaM, tadEva vEzma pakAvRtya yAmi|
But the unclean spirit, when he is gone out of the person, passes through waterless places, seeking rest, and does not find it.
44 pazcAt sa tat sthAnam upasthAya tat zUnyaM mArjjitaM zObhitanjca vilOkya vrajan svatOpi duSTatarAn anyasaptabhUtAn sagginaH karOti|
Then he says, 'I will return into my house from which I came out,' and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
45 tatastE tat sthAnaM pravizya nivasanti, tEna tasya manujasya zESadazA pUrvvadazAtOtIvAzubhA bhavati, EtESAM duSTavaMzyAnAmapi tathaiva ghaTiSyatE|
Then he goes, and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that person becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation."
46 mAnavEbhya EtAsAM kathanAM kathanakAlE tasya mAtA sahajAzca tEna sAkaM kAnjcit kathAM kathayituM vAnjchantO bahirEva sthitavantaH|
While he was yet speaking to the crowds, look, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
47 tataH kazcit tasmai kathitavAn, pazya tava jananI sahajAzca tvayA sAkaM kAnjcana kathAM kathayituM kAmayamAnA bahistiSThanti|
Then one said to him, "Look, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you."
48 kintu sa taM pratyavadat, mama kA jananI? kE vA mama sahajAH?
But he answered him who spoke to him, "Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?"
49 pazcAt ziSyAn prati karaM prasAryya kathitavAn, pazya mama jananI mama sahajAzcaitE;
And he stretched out his hand towards his disciples, and said, "Look, my mother and my brothers.
50 yaH kazcit mama svargasthasya pituriSTaM karmma kurutE, saEva mama bhrAtA bhaginI jananI ca|
For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother."
