mathiH 16
1 tadAnIM phirUzinaH sidUkinazcAgatya taM parIkSituM nabhamIyaM kinjcana lakSma darzayituM tasmai nivEdayAmAsuH|
The Pharisees and Sadducees came and tested him by asking him to show them a sign from the sky.
2 tataH sa uktavAn, sandhyAyAM nabhasO raktatvAd yUyaM vadatha, zvO nirmmalaM dinaM bhaviSyati;
But he answered and said to them, “When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.'
3 prAtaHkAlE ca nabhasO raktatvAt malinatvAnjca vadatha, jhanjbhzadya bhaviSyati| hE kapaTinO yadi yUyam antarIkSasya lakSma bOddhuM zaknutha, tarhi kAlasyaitasya lakSma kathaM bOddhuM na zaknutha?
When it is morning, you say, 'It will be foul weather, for the sky is red and overcast.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.
4 EtatkAlasya duSTO vyabhicArI ca vaMzO lakSma gavESayati, kintu yUnasO bhaviSyadvAdinO lakSma vinAnyat kimapi lakSma tAn na darzayiyyatE| tadAnIM sa tAn vihAya pratasthE|
An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.” Then Jesus left them and went away.
5 anantaramanyapAragamanakAlE tasya ziSyAH pUpamAnEtuM vismRtavantaH|
When the disciples reached the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6 yIzustAnavAdIt, yUyaM phirUzinAM sidUkinAnjca kiNvaM prati sAvadhAnAH satarkAzca bhavata|
Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
7 tEna tE parasparaM vivicya kathayitumArEbhirE, vayaM pUpAnAnEtuM vismRtavanta EtatkAraNAd iti kathayati|
The disciples reasoned among themselves and said, “It is because we took no bread.”
8 kintu yIzustadvijnjAya tAnavOcat, hE stOkavizvAsinO yUyaM pUpAnAnayanamadhi kutaH parasparamEtad viviMkya?
Jesus was aware of this and said, “You of little faith, why do you reason among yourselves and say that it is because you have taken no bread?
9 yuSmAbhiH kimadyApi na jnjAyatE? panjcabhiH pUpaiH panjcasahasrapuruSESu bhOjitESu bhakSyOcchiSTapUrNAn kati PalakAn samagRhlItaM;
Do you not yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you gathered up?
10 tathA saptabhiH pUpaizcatuHsahasrapuruSESu bhEjitESu kati PalakAn samagRhlIta, tat kiM yuSmAbhirna smaryyatE?
Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
11 tasmAt phirUzinAM sidUkinAnjca kiNvaM prati sAvadhAnAstiSThata, kathAmimAm ahaM pUpAnadhi nAkathayaM, Etad yUyaM kutO na budhyadhvE?
How is it that you do not understand that I was not speaking to you about bread? Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
12 tadAnIM pUpakiNvaM prati sAvadhAnAstiSThatEti nOktvA phirUzinAM sidUkinAnjca upadEzaM prati sAvadhAnAstiSThatEti kathitavAn, iti tairabOdhi|
Then they understood that he was not telling them to beware of yeast in bread, but to beware of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
13 aparanjca yIzuH kaisariyA-philipipradEzamAgatya ziSyAn apRcchat, yO'haM manujasutaH sO'haM kaH? lOkairahaM kimucyE?
Now when Jesus came to the regions near Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?”
14 tadAnIM tE kathitavantaH, kEcid vadanti tvaM majjayitA yOhan, kEcidvadanti, tvam EliyaH, kEcicca vadanti, tvaM yirimiyO vA kazcid bhaviSyadvAdIti|
They said, “Some say John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”
15 pazcAt sa tAn papraccha, yUyaM mAM kaM vadatha? tataH zimOn pitara uvAca,
He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
16 tvamamarEzvarasyAbhiSiktaputraH|
Answering, Simon Peter said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
17 tatO yIzuH kathitavAn, hE yUnasaH putra zimOn tvaM dhanyaH; yataH kOpi anujastvayyEtajjnjAnaM nOdapAdayat, kintu mama svargasyaH pitOdapAdayat|
Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood have not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
18 atO'haM tvAM vadAmi, tvaM pitaraH (prastaraH) ahanjca tasya prastarasyOpari svamaNPalIM nirmmAsyAmi, tEna nirayO balAt tAM parAjEtuM na zakSyati| (Hadēs g86)
I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church. The gates of Hades will not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
19 ahaM tubhyaM svargIyarAjyasya kunjjikAM dAsyAmi, tEna yat kinjcana tvaM pRthivyAM bhaMtsyasi tatsvargE bhaMtsyatE, yacca kinjcana mahyAM mOkSyasi tat svargE mOkSyatE|
I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
20 pazcAt sa ziSyAnAdizat, ahamabhiSiktO yIzuriti kathAM kasmaicidapi yUyaM mA kathayata|
Then Jesus commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was the Christ.
21 anyanjca yirUzAlamnagaraM gatvA prAcInalOkEbhyaH pradhAnayAjakEbhya upAdhyAyEbhyazca bahuduHkhabhOgastai rhatatvaM tRtIyadinE punarutthAnanjca mamAvazyakam EtAH kathA yIzustatkAlamArabhya ziSyAn jnjApayitum ArabdhavAn|
From that time Jesus started to tell his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem, suffer many things at the hand of the elders and chief priests and scribes, be killed, and be raised back to life on the third day.
22 tadAnIM pitarastasya karaM ghRtvA tarjayitvA kathayitumArabdhavAn, hE prabhO, tat tvattO dUraM yAtu, tvAM prati kadApi na ghaTiSyatE|
Then Peter took him aside and rebuked him, saying, “May this be far from you, Lord; may this never happen to you.”
23 kintu sa vadanaM parAvartya pitaraM jagAda, hE vighnakArin, matsammukhAd dUrIbhava, tvaM mAM bAdhasE, IzvarIyakAryyAt mAnuSIyakAryyaM tubhyaM rOcatE|
But Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you do not care for the things of God, but for the things of people.”
24 anantaraM yIzuH svIyaziSyAn uktavAn yaH kazcit mama pazcAdgAmI bhavitum icchati, sa svaM dAmyatu, tathA svakruzaM gRhlan matpazcAdAyAtu|
Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone wants to follow me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
25 yatO yaH prANAn rakSitumicchati, sa tAn hArayiSyati, kintu yO madarthaM nijaprANAn hArayati, sa tAn prApsyati|
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
26 mAnuSO yadi sarvvaM jagat labhatE nijapraNAn hArayati, tarhi tasya kO lAbhaH? manujO nijaprANAnAM vinimayEna vA kiM dAtuM zaknOti?
For what does it profit a person if he gains the whole world but forfeits his life? What can a person give in exchange for his life?
27 manujasutaH svadUtaiH sAkaM pituH prabhAvENAgamiSyati; tadA pratimanujaM svasvakarmmAnusArAt phalaM dAsyati|
For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels. Then he will reward every person according to what he has done.
28 ahaM yuSmAn tathyaM vacmi, sarAjyaM manujasutam AgataM na pazyantO mRtyuM na svAdiSyanti, EtAdRzAH katipayajanA atrApi daNPAyamAnAH santi|
Truly I say to you, there are some of you standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”
