< मार्कः 14 >
1 तदा निस्तारोत्सवकिण्वहीनपूपोत्सवयोरारम्भस्य दिनद्वये ऽवशिष्टे प्रधानयाजका अध्यापकाश्च केनापि छलेन यीशुं धर्त्तां हन्तुञ्च मृगयाञ्चक्रिरे;
It was now two days before the Festival of the Passover and the unleavened bread. The chief priests and the teachers of the Law were looking for an opportunity to arrest Jesus by stealth, and to put him to death;
2 किन्तु लोकानां कलहभयादूचिरे, नचोत्सवकाल उचितमेतदिति।
for they said, “Not during the Festival, or the people may riot.”
3 अनन्तरं बैथनियापुुरे शिमोनकुष्ठिनो गृहे योशौ भोत्कुमुपविष्टे सति काचिद् योषित् पाण्डरपाषाणस्य सम्पुटकेन महार्घ्योत्तमतैलम् आनीय सम्पुटकं भंक्त्वा तस्योत्तमाङ्गे तैलधारां पातयाञ्चक्रे।
When Jesus was still at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, while he was sitting at the table, a woman came with an alabaster jar of choice spikenard perfume of great value. She broke the jar, and poured the perfume on his head.
4 तस्मात् केचित् स्वान्ते कुप्यन्तः कथितवंन्तः कुतोयं तैलापव्ययः?
Some of those who were present said to one another indignantly, “Why has the perfume been wasted like this?
5 यद्येतत् तैल व्यक्रेष्यत तर्हि मुद्रापादशतत्रयादप्यधिकं तस्य प्राप्तमूल्यं दरिद्रलोकेभ्यो दातुमशक्ष्यत, कथामेतां कथयित्वा तया योषिता साकं वाचायुह्यन्।
This perfume could have been sold for more than a year’s wages, and the money given to the poor.”
6 किन्तु यीशुरुवाच, कुत एतस्यै कृच्छ्रं ददासि? मह्यमियं कर्म्मोत्तमं कृतवती।
“Leave her alone,” said Jesus, as they began to find fault with her, “why are you troubling her? This is a beautiful deed that she has done for me.
7 दरिद्राः सर्व्वदा युष्माभिः सह तिष्ठन्ति, तस्माद् यूयं यदेच्छथ तदैव तानुपकर्त्तां शक्नुथ, किन्त्वहं युभाभिः सह निरन्तरं न तिष्ठामि।
You always have the poor with you, and whenever you wish you can do good to them; but you will not always have me.
8 अस्या यथासाध्यं तथैवाकरोदियं, श्मशानयापनात् पूर्व्वं समेत्य मद्वपुषि तैलम् अमर्द्दयत्।
She has done what she could; she has perfumed my body beforehand for my burial.
9 अहं युष्मभ्यं यथार्थं कथयामि, जगतां मध्ये यत्र यत्र सुसंवादोयं प्रचारयिष्यते तत्र तत्र योषित एतस्याः स्मरणार्थं तत्कृतकर्म्मैतत् प्रचारयिष्यते।
And I tell you, wherever, in the whole world, the good news is proclaimed, what this woman has done will be told in memory of her.”
10 ततः परं द्वादशानां शिष्याणामेक ईष्करियोतीययिहूदाख्यो यीशुं परकरेषु समर्पयितुं प्रधानयाजकानां समीपमियाय।
After this, Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests, to betray Jesus to them.
11 ते तस्य वाक्यं समाकर्ण्य सन्तुष्टाः सन्तस्तस्मै मुद्रा दातुं प्रत्यजानत; तस्मात् स तं तेषां करेषु समर्पणायोपायं मृगयामास।
They were glad to hear what he said, and promised to pay him. So he began looking for a good opportunity to betray Jesus.
12 अनन्तरं किण्वशून्यपूपोत्सवस्य प्रथमेऽहनि निस्तारोत्मवार्थं मेषमारणासमये शिष्यास्तं पप्रच्छः कुत्र गत्वा वयं निस्तारोत्सवस्य भोज्यमासादयिष्यामः? किमिच्छति भवान्?
On the first day of the Festival of the unleavened bread, when it was customary to kill the Passover lambs, his disciples said to Jesus, “Where do you wish us to go and make preparations for your eating the Passover?”
13 तदानीं स तेषां द्वयं प्रेरयन् बभाषे युवयोः पुरमध्यं गतयोः सतो र्यो जनः सजलकुम्भं वहन् युवां साक्षात् करिष्यति तस्यैव पश्चाद् यातं;
Jesus sent forward two of his disciples and said to them, “Go into the city, and there a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him;
14 स यत् सदनं प्रवेक्ष्यति तद्भवनपतिं वदतं, गुरुराह यत्र सशिष्योहं निस्तारोत्सवीयं भोजनं करिष्यामि, सा भोजनशाला कुत्रास्ति?
and, wherever he goes in, say to the owner of the house ‘The teacher says – Where is my room where I am to eat the Passover with my disciples?’
15 ततः स परिष्कृतां सुसज्जितां बृहतीचञ्च यां शालां दर्शयिष्यति तस्यामस्मदर्थं भोज्यद्रव्याण्यासादयतं।
He will himself show you a large upstairs room, set out ready; and there make preparations for us.”
16 ततः शिष्यौ प्रस्थाय पुरं प्रविश्य स यथोक्तवान् तथैव प्राप्य निस्तारोत्सवस्य भोज्यद्रव्याणि समासादयेताम्।
So the disciples set out and went into the city, and found everything just as Jesus had told them; and they prepared the Passover.
17 अनन्तरं यीशुः सायंकाले द्वादशभिः शिष्यैः सार्द्धं जगाम;
In the evening he went there with the Twelve,
18 सर्व्वेषु भोजनाय प्रोपविष्टेषु स तानुदितवान् युष्मानहं यथार्थं व्याहरामि, अत्र युष्माकमेको जनो यो मया सह भुंक्ते मां परकेरेषु समर्पयिष्यते।
and when they had taken their places and were eating, Jesus said, “I tell you that one of you is going to betray me – one who is eating with me.”
19 तदानीं ते दुःखिताः सन्त एकैकशस्तं प्रष्टुमारब्धवन्तः स किमहं? पश्चाद् अन्य एकोभिदधे स किमहं?
They were grieved at this, and began to say to him, one after another, “Can it be I?”
20 ततः स प्रत्यवदद् एतेषां द्वादशानां यो जनो मया समं भोजनापात्रे पाणिं मज्जयिष्यति स एव।
“It is one of you Twelve,” said Jesus, “the one who is dipping his bread beside me into the dish.
21 मनुजतनयमधि यादृशं लिखितमास्ते तदनुरूपा गतिस्तस्य भविष्यति, किन्तु यो जनो मानवसुतं समर्पयिष्यते हन्त तस्य जन्माभावे सति भद्रमभविष्यत्।
True, the Son of Man must go, as scripture says of him, yet alas for that man by whom the Son of Man is being betrayed! For that man it would be better never to have been born!”
22 अपरञ्च तेषां भोजनसमये यीशुः पूपं गृहीत्वेश्वरगुणान् अनुकीर्त्य भङ्क्त्वा तेभ्यो दत्त्वा बभाषे, एतद् गृहीत्वा भुञ्जीध्वम् एतन्मम विग्रहरूपं।
While they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is my body.”
23 अनन्तरं स कंसं गृहीत्वेश्वरस्य गुणान् कीर्त्तयित्वा तेभ्यो ददौ, ततस्ते सर्व्वे पपुः।
Then he took a cup, and, after saying the thanksgiving, gave it to them, and they all drank from it.
24 अपरं स तानवादीद् बहूनां निमित्तं पातितं मम नवीननियमरूपं शोणितमेतत्।
“This is my covenant-blood,” he said, “which is poured out on behalf of many.
25 युष्मानहं यथार्थं वदामि, ईश्वरस्य राज्ये यावत् सद्योजातं द्राक्षारसं न पास्यामि, तावदहं द्राक्षाफलरसं पुन र्न पास्यामि।
I tell you that I will never again drink of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I will drink it new in the kingdom of God.”
26 तदनन्तरं ते गीतमेकं संगीय बहि र्जैतुनं शिखरिणं ययुः
They then sang a hymn, and went out up the Mount of Olives,
27 अथ यीशुस्तानुवाच निशायामस्यां मयि युष्माकं सर्व्वेषां प्रत्यूहो भविष्यति यतो लिखितमास्ते यथा, मेषाणां रक्षकञ्चाहं प्रहरिष्यामि वै ततः। मेषाणां निवहो नूनं प्रविकीर्णो भविष्यति।
presently Jesus said to them, “All of you will fall away; for scripture says – ‘I will strike down the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’
28 कन्तु मदुत्थाने जाते युष्माकमग्रेऽहं गालीलं व्रजिष्यामि।
Yet, after I have risen, I will go before you into Galilee.”
29 तदा पितरः प्रतिबभाषे, यद्यपि सर्व्वेषां प्रत्यूहो भवति तथापि मम नैव भविष्यति।
“Even if everyone else falls away,” said Peter, “I will not.”
30 ततो यीशुरुक्तावान् अहं तुभ्यं तथ्यं कथयामि, क्षणादायामद्य कुक्कुटस्य द्वितीयवाररवणात् पूर्व्वं त्वं वारत्रयं मामपह्नोष्यसे।
“I tell you,” answered Jesus, “that you yourself today – yes, this very night – before the cock crows twice, will disown me three times.”
31 किन्तु स गाढं व्याहरद् यद्यपि त्वया सार्द्धं मम प्राणो याति तथापि कथमपि त्वां नापह्नोष्ये; सर्व्वेऽपीतरे तथैव बभाषिरे।
But Peter vehemently protested, “Even if I must die with you, I will never disown you!” And they all said the same.
32 अपरञ्च तेषु गेत्शिमानीनामकं स्थान गतेषु स शिष्यान् जगाद, यावदहं प्रार्थये तावदत्र स्थाने यूयं समुपविशत।
Presently they came to a garden known as Gethsemane, and Jesus said to his disciples “Sit down here while I pray.”
33 अथ स पितरं याकूबं योहनञ्च गृहीत्वा वव्राज; अत्यन्तं त्रासितो व्याकुलितश्च तेभ्यः कथयामास,
He took with him Peter, James, and John; and began to show signs of great dismay and deep distress of mind.
34 निधनकालवत् प्राणो मेऽतीव दःखमेति, यूयं जाग्रतोत्र स्थाने तिष्ठत।
“I am sad at heart,” he said, “sad even to death; wait here, and watch.”
35 ततः स किञ्चिद्दूरं गत्वा भूमावधोमुखः पतित्वा प्रार्थितवानेतत्, यदि भवितुं शक्यं तर्हि दुःखसमयोयं मत्तो दूरीभवतु।
Going on a little further, he threw himself on the ground, and began to pray that, if it were possible, he might be spared that hour.
36 अपरमुदितवान् हे पित र्हे पितः सर्व्वें त्वया साध्यं, ततो हेतोरिमं कंसं मत्तो दूरीकुरु, किन्तु तन् ममेच्छातो न तवेच्छातो भवतु।
“Abba, Father,” he said, “all things are possible to you; take away this cup from me; yet, not what I will, but what you will.”
37 ततः परं स एत्य तान् निद्रितान् निरीक्ष्य पितरं प्रोवाच, शिमोन् त्वं किं निद्रासि? घटिकामेकाम् अपि जागरितुं न शक्नोषि?
Then he came and found the three apostles asleep. “Simon,” he said to Peter, “are you asleep? Couldn’t you watch for one hour?
38 परीक्षायां यथा न पतथ तदर्थं सचेतनाः सन्तः प्रार्थयध्वं; मन उद्युक्तमिति सत्यं किन्तु वपुरशक्तिकं।
Watch and pray,” he said to them all, “so that you may not fall into temptation. True, the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
39 अथ स पुनर्व्रजित्वा पूर्व्ववत् प्रार्थयाञ्चक्रे।
Again he went away, and prayed in the same words;
40 परावृत्यागत्य पुनरपि तान् निद्रितान् ददर्श तदा तेषां लोचनानि निद्रया पूर्णानि, तस्मात्तस्मै का कथा कथयितव्या त एतद् बोद्धुं न शेकुः।
and coming back again he found them asleep, for their eyes were heavy; and they did not know what to say to him.
41 ततःपरं तृतीयवारं आगत्य तेभ्यो ऽकथयद् इदानीमपि शयित्वा विश्राम्यथ? यथेष्टं जातं, समयश्चोपस्थितः पश्यत मानवतनयः पापिलोकानां पाणिषु समर्प्यते।
A third time he came, and said to them, “Sleep on now, and rest yourselves. Enough! My time has come. Look, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of wicked people.
42 उत्तिष्ठत, वयं व्रजामो यो जनो मां परपाणिषु समर्पयिष्यते पश्यत स समीपमायातः।
Up, and let us be going. Look! My betrayer is close at hand.”
43 इमां कथां कथयति स, एतर्हिद्वादशानामेको यिहूदा नामा शिष्यः प्रधानयाजकानाम् उपाध्यायानां प्राचीनलोकानाञ्च सन्निधेः खङ्गलगुडधारिणो बहुलोकान् गृहीत्वा तस्य समीप उपस्थितवान्।
And just then, while he was still speaking, Judas, who was one of the Twelve, came up; and with him a crowd of people, with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests, the teachers of the Law, and the elders.
44 अपरञ्चासौ परपाणिषु समर्पयिता पूर्व्वमिति सङ्केतं कृतवान् यमहं चुम्बिष्यामि स एवासौ तमेव धृत्वा सावधानं नयत।
Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them. “The man whom I kiss,” he had said, “will be the one; arrest him and take him away safely.”
45 अतो हेतोः स आगत्यैव योशोः सविधं गत्वा हे गुरो हे गुरो, इत्युक्त्वा तं चुचुम्ब।
As soon as Judas came, he went up to Jesus at once, and said, “Rabbi!” and kissed him.
46 तदा ते तदुपरि पाणीनर्पयित्वा तं दध्नुः।
Then the men seized Jesus, and arrested him.
47 ततस्तस्य पार्श्वस्थानां लोकानामेकः खङ्गं निष्कोषयन् महायाजकस्य दासमेकं प्रहृत्य तस्य कर्णं चिच्छेद।
One of those who were standing by drew his sword, and struck at the high priest’s servant, and cut off his ear.
48 पश्चाद् यीशुस्तान् व्याजहार खङ्गान् लगुडांश्च गृहीत्वा मां किं चौरं धर्त्तां समायाताः?
But Jesus spoke up, and said to the men, “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs, to take me?
49 मध्येमन्दिरं समुपदिशन् प्रत्यहं युष्माभिः सह स्थितवानतहं, तस्मिन् काले यूयं मां नादीधरत, किन्त्वनेन शास्त्रीयं वचनं सेधनीयं।
I have been among you day after day in the Temple Courts teaching, and yet you did not arrest me; but this is in fulfillment of the scriptures.”
50 तदा सर्व्वे शिष्यास्तं परित्यज्य पलायाञ्चक्रिरे।
And all the apostles deserted him and fled.
51 अथैको युवा मानवो नग्नकाये वस्त्रमेकं निधाय तस्य पश्चाद् व्रजन् युवलोकै र्धृतो
One young man did indeed follow him, wrapped only in a linen sheet. They tried to arrest him;
52 वस्त्रं विहाय नग्नः पलायाञ्चक्रे।
but he left the sheet in their hands, and fled naked.
53 अपरञ्च यस्मिन् स्थाने प्रधानयाजका उपाध्यायाः प्राचीनलोकाश्च महायाजकेन सह सदसि स्थितास्तस्मिन् स्थाने महायाजकस्य समीपं यीशुं निन्युः।
Then they took Jesus to the high priest; and all the chief priests, elders, and the teachers of the Law assembled.
54 पितरो दूरे तत्पश्चाद् इत्वा महायाजकस्याट्टालिकां प्रविश्य किङ्करैः सहोपविश्य वह्नितापं जग्राह।
Peter, who had followed Jesus at a distance into the courtyard of the high priest, was sitting there among the guards, warming himself at the blaze of the fire.
55 तदानीं प्रधानयाजका मन्त्रिणश्च यीशुं घातयितुं तत्प्रातिकूल्येन साक्षिणो मृगयाञ्चक्रिरे, किन्तु न प्राप्ताः।
Meanwhile the chief priest and the whole of the High Council were trying to get such evidence against Jesus as would warrant his being put to death, but they could not find any;
56 अनेकैस्तद्विरुद्धं मृषासाक्ष्ये दत्तेपि तेषां वाक्यानि न समगच्छन्त।
for, though there were many who gave false evidence against him, yet their evidence did not agree.
57 सर्व्वशेषे कियन्त उत्थाय तस्य प्रातिकूल्येन मृषासाक्ष्यं दत्त्वा कथयामासुः,
Presently some men stood up, and gave this false evidence against him –
58 इदं करकृतमन्दिरं विनाश्य दिनत्रयमध्ये पुनरपरम् अकरकृतं मन्दिरं निर्म्मास्यामि, इति वाक्यम् अस्य मुखात् श्रुतमस्माभिरिति।
“We ourselves heard him say ‘I will destroy this Temple made with hands, and in three days build another made without hands.’”
59 किन्तु तत्रापि तेषां साक्ष्यकथा न सङ्गाताः।
Yet not even on that point did their evidence agree.
60 अथ महायाजको मध्येसभम् उत्थाय यीशुं व्याजहार, एते जनास्त्वयि यत् साक्ष्यमदुः त्वमेतस्य किमप्युत्तरं किं न दास्यसि?
Then the high priest stood forward, and questioned Jesus. “Have you no answer to make?” he asked. “What is this evidence which these men are giving against you?”
61 किन्तु स किमप्युत्तरं न दत्वा मौनीभूय तस्यौ; ततो महायाजकः पुनरपि तं पृष्टावान् त्वं सच्चिदानन्दस्य तनयो ऽभिषिक्तस्त्रता?
But Jesus remained silent, and made no answer. A second time the high priest questioned him. “Are you,” he asked, “the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”
62 तदा यीशुस्तं प्रोवाच भवाम्यहम् यूयञ्च सर्व्वशक्तिमतो दक्षीणपार्श्वे समुपविशन्तं मेघ मारुह्य समायान्तञ्च मनुष्यपुत्रं सन्द्रक्ष्यथ।
“I am,” replied Jesus, “and you will all see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the Almighty, and coming in the clouds of heaven.”
63 तदा महायाजकः स्वं वमनं छित्वा व्यावहरत्
At this the high priest tore his vestments. “Why do we want any more witnesses?” he exclaimed.
64 किमस्माकं साक्षिभिः प्रयोजनम्? ईश्वरनिन्दावाक्यं युष्माभिरश्रावि किं विचारयथ? तदानीं सर्व्वे जगदुरयं निधनदण्डमर्हति।
“You heard his blasphemy? What is your verdict?” They all condemned him, declaring that he deserved death.
65 ततः कश्चित् कश्चित् तद्वपुषि निष्ठीवं निचिक्षेप तथा तन्मुखमाच्छाद्य चपेटेन हत्वा गदितवान् गणयित्वा वद, अनुचराश्च चपेटैस्तमाजघ्नुः
Some of those present began to spit at him, and to blindfold his eyes, and strike him, saying, as they did so, “Now play the prophet!” and even the guards received him with blows.
66 ततः परं पितरेऽट्टालिकाधःकोष्ठे तिष्ठति महायाजकस्यैका दासी समेत्य
While Peter was in the courtyard down below, one of the high priest’s maidservants came up;
67 तं विह्नितापं गृह्लन्तं विलोक्य तं सुनिरीक्ष्य बभाषे त्वमपि नासरतीययीशोः सङ्गिनाम् एको जन आसीः।
and, seeing Peter warming himself, she looked closely at him, and exclaimed, “Why, you were with Jesus, the Nazarene!”
68 किन्तु सोपह्नुत्य जगाद तमहं न वद्मि त्वं यत् कथयमि तदप्यहं न बुद्ध्ये। तदानीं पितरे चत्वरं गतवति कुेक्कुटो रुराव।
But Peter denied it. “I do not know or understand what you mean,” he replied. Then he went out into the porch;
69 अथान्या दासी पितरं दृष्ट्वा समीपस्थान् जनान् जगाद अयं तेषामेको जनः।
and there the maidservant, on seeing him, began to say again to the bystanders, “This is one of them!”
70 ततः स द्वितीयवारम् अपह्नुतवान् पश्चात् तत्रस्था लोकाः पितरं प्रोचुस्त्वमवश्यं तेषामेको जनः यतस्त्वं गालीलीयो नर इति तवोच्चारणं प्रकाशयति।
But Peter again denied it. Soon afterward the bystanders again said to him, “You certainly are one of them; why you are a Galilean!”
71 तदा स शपथाभिशापौ कृत्वा प्रोवाच यूयं कथां कथयथ तं नरं न जानेऽहं।
But he said to them, “I swear that I do not know the man you are talking about! May God punish me if I am lying!”
72 तदानीं द्वितीयवारं कुक्कुटो ऽरावीत्। कुक्कुटस्य द्वितीयरवात् पूर्व्वं त्वं मां वारत्रयम् अपह्नोष्यसि, इति यद्वाक्यं यीशुना समुदितं तत् तदा संस्मृत्य पितरो रोदितुम् आरभत।
At that moment, for the second time, a cock crowed; and Peter remembered the words that Jesus had said to him – ‘Before a cock has crowed twice, you will disown me three times’; and, as he thought of it, he began to weep.
