lūkaḥ 7
1 tataḥ paraṁ sa lokānāṁ karṇagocare tān sarvvān upadeśān samāpya yadā kapharnāhūmpuraṁ praviśati
After he had ended all his sayings in the ears of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 tadā śatasenāpateḥ priyadāsa eko mṛtakalpaḥ pīḍita āsīt|
And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear unto him, was sick and at the point of death.
3 ataḥ senāpati ryīśo rvārttāṁ niśamya dāsasyārogyakaraṇāya tasyāgamanārthaṁ vinayakaraṇāya yihūdīyān kiyataḥ prācaḥ preṣayāmāsa|
And when he heard concerning Jesus, he sent unto him elders of the Jews, asking him that he would come and save his servant.
4 te yīśorantikaṁ gatvā vinayātiśayaṁ vaktumārebhire, sa senāpati rbhavatonugrahaṁ prāptum arhati|
And they, when they came to Jesus, besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldest do this for him:
5 yataḥ sosmajjātīyeṣu lokeṣu prīyate tathāsmatkṛte bhajanagehaṁ nirmmitavān|
for he loveth our nation, and himself built us our synagogue.
6 tasmād yīśustaiḥ saha gatvā niveśanasya samīpaṁ prāpa, tadā sa śatasenāpati rvakṣyamāṇavākyaṁ taṁ vaktuṁ bandhūn prāhiṇot| he prabho svayaṁ śramo na karttavyo yad bhavatā madgehamadhye pādārpaṇaṁ kriyeta tadapyahaṁ nārhāmi,
And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof:
7 kiñcāhaṁ bhavatsamīpaṁ yātumapi nātmānaṁ yogyaṁ buddhavān, tato bhavān vākyamātraṁ vadatu tenaiva mama dāsaḥ svastho bhaviṣyati|
wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say the word, and my servant shall be healed.
8 yasmād ahaṁ parādhīnopi mamādhīnā yāḥ senāḥ santi tāsām ekajanaṁ prati yāhīti mayā prokte sa yāti; tadanyaṁ prati āyāhīti prokte sa āyāti; tathā nijadāsaṁ prati etat kurvviti prokte sa tadeva karoti|
For I also am a man set under authority, having under myself soldiers: and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
9 yīśuridaṁ vākyaṁ śrutvā vismayaṁ yayau, mukhaṁ parāvartya paścādvarttino lokān babhāṣe ca, yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi isrāyelo vaṁśamadhyepi viśvāsamīdṛśaṁ na prāpnavaṁ|
And when Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said unto the multitude that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
10 tataste preṣitā gṛhaṁ gatvā taṁ pīḍitaṁ dāsaṁ svasthaṁ dadṛśuḥ|
And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole.
11 pare'hani sa nāyīnākhyaṁ nagaraṁ jagāma tasyāneke śiṣyā anye ca lokāstena sārddhaṁ yayuḥ|
And it came to pass soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain; and his disciples went with him, and a great multitude.
12 teṣu tannagarasya dvārasannidhiṁ prāpteṣu kiyanto lokā ekaṁ mṛtamanujaṁ vahanto nagarasya bahiryānti, sa tanmāturekaputrastanmātā ca vidhavā; tayā sārddhaṁ tannagarīyā bahavo lokā āsan|
Now when he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, there was carried out one that was dead, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.
13 prabhustāṁ vilokya sānukampaḥ kathayāmāsa, mā rodīḥ| sa samīpamitvā khaṭvāṁ pasparśa tasmād vāhakāḥ sthagitāstamyuḥ;
And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.
14 tadā sa uvāca he yuvamanuṣya tvamuttiṣṭha, tvāmaham ājñāpayāmi|
And he came nigh and touched the bier: and the bearers stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
15 tasmāt sa mṛto janastatkṣaṇamutthāya kathāṁ prakathitaḥ; tato yīśustasya mātari taṁ samarpayāmāsa|
And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
16 tasmāt sarvve lokāḥ śaśaṅkire; eko mahābhaviṣyadvādī madhye'smākam samudait, īśvaraśca svalokānanvagṛhlāt kathāmimāṁ kathayitvā īśvaraṁ dhanyaṁ jagaduḥ|
And fear took hold on all: and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet is arisen among us: and, God hath visited his people.
17 tataḥ paraṁ samastaṁ yihūdādeśaṁ tasya caturdiksthadeśañca tasyaitatkīrtti rvyānaśe|
And this report went forth concerning him in the whole of Judaea, and all the region round about.
18 tataḥ paraṁ yohanaḥ śiṣyeṣu taṁ tadvṛttāntaṁ jñāpitavatsu
And the disciples of John told him of all these things.
19 sa svaśiṣyāṇāṁ dvau janāvāhūya yīśuṁ prati vakṣyamāṇaṁ vākyaṁ vaktuṁ preṣayāmāsa, yasyāgamanam apekṣya tiṣṭhāmo vayaṁ kiṁ sa eva janastvaṁ? kiṁ vayamanyamapekṣya sthāsyāmaḥ?
And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?
20 paścāttau mānavau gatvā kathayāmāsatuḥ, yasyāgamanam apekṣya tiṣṭhāmo vayaṁ, kiṁ saeva janastvaṁ? kiṁ vayamanyamapekṣya sthāsyāmaḥ? kathāmimāṁ tubhyaṁ kathayituṁ yohan majjaka āvāṁ preṣitavān|
And when the men were come unto him, they said, John the Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?
21 tasmin daṇḍe yīśūrogiṇo mahāvyādhimato duṣṭabhūtagrastāṁśca bahūn svasthān kṛtvā, anekāndhebhyaścakṣuṁṣi dattvā pratyuvāca,
In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and on many that were blind he bestowed sight.
22 yuvāṁ vrajatam andhā netrāṇi khañjāścaraṇāni ca prāpnuvanti, kuṣṭhinaḥ pariṣkriyante, badhirāḥ śravaṇāni mṛtāśca jīvanāni prāpnuvanti, daridrāṇāṁ samīpeṣu susaṁvādaḥ pracāryyate, yaṁ prati vighnasvarūpohaṁ na bhavāmi sa dhanyaḥ,
And he answered and said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good tidings preached to them.
23 etāni yāni paśyathaḥ śṛṇuthaśca tāni yohanaṁ jñāpayatam|
And blessed is he, whosoever shall find none occasion of stumbling in me.
24 tayo rdūtayo rgatayoḥ sato ryohani sa lokān vaktumupacakrame, yūyaṁ madhyeprāntaraṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kiṁ vāyunā kampitaṁ naḍaṁ?
And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?
25 yūyaṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kiṁ sūkṣmavastraparidhāyinaṁ kamapi naraṁ? kintu ye sūkṣmamṛduvastrāṇi paridadhati sūttamāni dravyāṇi bhuñjate ca te rājadhānīṣu tiṣṭhanti|
But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.
26 tarhi yūyaṁ kiṁ draṣṭuṁ niragamata? kimekaṁ bhaviṣyadvādinaṁ? tadeva satyaṁ kintu sa pumān bhaviṣyadvādinopi śreṣṭha ityahaṁ yuṣmān vadāmi;
But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
27 paśya svakīyadūtantu tavāgra preṣayāmyahaṁ| gatvā tvadīyamārgantu sa hi pariṣkariṣyati| yadarthe lipiriyam āste sa eva yohan|
This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way before thee.
28 ato yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi striyā garbbhajātānāṁ bhaviṣyadvādināṁ madhye yohano majjakāt śreṣṭhaḥ kopi nāsti, tatrāpi īśvarasya rājye yaḥ sarvvasmāt kṣudraḥ sa yohanopi śreṣṭhaḥ|
I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there is none greater than John: yet he that is but little in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
29 aparañca sarvve lokāḥ karamañcāyinaśca tasya vākyāni śrutvā yohanā majjanena majjitāḥ parameśvaraṁ nirdoṣaṁ menire|
And all the people when they heard, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
30 kintu phirūśino vyavasthāpakāśca tena na majjitāḥ svān pratīśvarasyopadeśaṁ niṣphalam akurvvan|
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected for themselves the counsel of God, being not baptized of him.
31 atha prabhuḥ kathayāmāsa, idānīntanajanān kenopamāmi? te kasya sadṛśāḥ?
Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation, and to what are they like?
32 ye bālakā vipaṇyām upaviśya parasparam āhūya vākyamidaṁ vadanti, vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ nikaṭe vaṁśīravādiṣma, kintu yūyaṁ nānarttiṣṭa, vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ nikaṭa arodiṣma, kintu yuyaṁ na vyalapiṣṭa, bālakairetādṛśaisteṣām upamā bhavati|
They are like unto children that sit in the marketplace, and call one to another; which say, We piped unto you, and ye did not dance; we wailed, and ye did not weep.
33 yato yohan majjaka āgatya pūpaṁ nākhādat drākṣārasañca nāpivat tasmād yūyaṁ vadatha, bhūtagrastoyam|
For John the Baptist is come eating no bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
34 tataḥ paraṁ mānavasuta āgatyākhādadapivañca tasmād yūyaṁ vadatha, khādakaḥ surāpaścāṇḍālapāpināṁ bandhureko jano dṛśyatām|
The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
35 kintu jñānino jñānaṁ nirdoṣaṁ viduḥ|
And wisdom is justified of all her children.
36 paścādekaḥ phirūśī yīśuṁ bhojanāya nyamantrayat tataḥ sa tasya gṛhaṁ gatvā bhoktumupaviṣṭaḥ|
And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he entered into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat.
37 etarhi tatphirūśino gṛhe yīśu rbhektum upāvekṣīt tacchrutvā tannagaravāsinī kāpi duṣṭā nārī pāṇḍaraprastarasya sampuṭake sugandhitailam ānīya
And behold, a woman which was in the city, a sinner; and when she knew that he was sitting at meat in the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster cruse of ointment,
38 tasya paścāt pādayoḥ sannidhau tasyau rudatī ca netrāmbubhistasya caraṇau prakṣālya nijakacairamārkṣīt, tatastasya caraṇau cumbitvā tena sugandhitailena mamarda|
and standing behind at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 tasmāt sa nimantrayitā phirūśī manasā cintayāmāsa, yadyayaṁ bhaviṣyadvādī bhavet tarhi enaṁ spṛśati yā strī sā kā kīdṛśī ceti jñātuṁ śaknuyāt yataḥ sā duṣṭā|
Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what manner of woman this is which touched him, that she is a sinner.
40 tadā yāśustaṁ jagāda, he śimon tvāṁ prati mama kiñcid vaktavyamasti; tasmāt sa babhāṣe, he guro tad vadatu|
And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
41 ekottamarṇasya dvāvadhamarṇāvāstāṁ, tayorekaḥ pañcaśatāni mudrāpādān aparaśca pañcāśat mudrāpādān dhārayāmāsa|
A certain lender had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
42 tadanantaraṁ tayoḥ śodhyābhāvāt sa uttamarṇastayo rṛṇe cakṣame; tasmāt tayordvayoḥ kastasmin preṣyate bahu? tad brūhi|
When they had not [wherewith] to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?
43 śimon pratyuvāca, mayā budhyate yasyādhikam ṛṇaṁ cakṣame sa iti; tato yīśustaṁ vyājahāra, tvaṁ yathārthaṁ vyacārayaḥ|
Simon answered and said, He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44 atha tāṁ nārīṁ prati vyāghuṭhya śimonamavocat, strīmimāṁ paśyasi? tava gṛhe mayyāgate tvaṁ pādaprakṣālanārthaṁ jalaṁ nādāḥ kintu yoṣideṣā nayanajalai rmama pādau prakṣālya keśairamārkṣīt|
And turning to the woman, he said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath wetted my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.
45 tvaṁ māṁ nācumbīḥ kintu yoṣideṣā svīyāgamanādārabhya madīyapādau cumbituṁ na vyaraṁsta|
Thou gavest me no kiss: but she, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 tvañca madīyottamāṅge kiñcidapi tailaṁ nāmardīḥ kintu yoṣideṣā mama caraṇau sugandhitailenāmarddīt|
My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but she hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47 atastvāṁ vyāharāmi, etasyā bahu pāpamakṣamyata tato bahu prīyate kintu yasyālpapāpaṁ kṣamyate solpaṁ prīyate|
Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, [the same] loveth little.
48 tataḥ paraṁ sa tāṁ babhāṣe, tvadīyaṁ pāpamakṣamyata|
And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
49 tadā tena sārddhaṁ ye bhoktum upaviviśuste parasparaṁ vaktumārebhire, ayaṁ pāpaṁ kṣamate ka eṣaḥ?
And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?
50 kintu sa tāṁ nārīṁ jagāda, tava viśvāsastvāṁ paryyatrāsta tvaṁ kṣemeṇa vraja|
And he said unto the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
