mārkaḥ 3
1 anantaraṁ yīśuḥ puna rbhajanagṛhaṁ praviṣṭastasmin sthāne śuṣkahasta eko mānava āsīt|
On another occasion Jesus went in to a synagogue, where there was a man whose hand was withered.
2 sa viśrāmavāre tamarogiṇaṁ kariṣyati navetyatra bahavastam apavadituṁ chidramapekṣitavantaḥ|
And they watched Jesus closely, to see if he would cure the man on the Sabbath, so that they might have a charge to bring against him.
3 tadā sa taṁ śuṣkahastaṁ manuṣyaṁ jagāda madhyasthāne tvamuttiṣṭha|
“Stand out in the middle,” Jesus said to the man with the withered hand;
4 tataḥ paraṁ sa tān papraccha viśrāmavāre hitamahitaṁ tathā hi prāṇarakṣā vā prāṇanāśa eṣāṁ madhye kiṁ karaṇīyaṁ? kintu te niḥśabdāstasthuḥ|
and to the people he said, “Is it allowable to do good at the Sabbath – or harm? To save a life, or destroy it?”
5 tadā sa teṣāmantaḥkaraṇānāṁ kāṭhinyāddheto rduḥkhitaḥ krodhāt cartudaśo dṛṣṭavān taṁ mānuṣaṁ gaditavān taṁ hastaṁ vistāraya, tatastena haste vistṛte taddhasto'nyahastavad arogo jātaḥ|
As they remained silent, Jesus looked around at them in anger, grieving at the hardness of their hearts, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” The man stretched it out; and his hand had become sound.
6 atha phirūśinaḥ prasthāya taṁ nāśayituṁ herodīyaiḥ saha mantrayitumārebhire|
Immediately on leaving the synagogue, the Pharisees and the Herodians united in laying a plot against Jesus, to put him to death.
7 ataeva yīśustatsthānaṁ parityajya śiṣyaiḥ saha punaḥ sāgarasamīpaṁ gataḥ;
Then Jesus went away with his disciples to the sea, followed by a great number of people from Galilee.
8 tato gālīlyihūdā-yirūśālam-idom-yardannadīpārasthānebhyo lokasamūhastasya paścād gataḥ; tadanyaḥ sorasīdanoḥ samīpavāsilokasamūhaśca tasya mahākarmmaṇāṁ vārttaṁ śrutvā tasya sannidhimāgataḥ|
A great number, hearing of all that he was doing, came to him from Judea, from Jerusalem, from Edom, from beyond the Jordan, and from the country around Tyre and Sidon.
9 tadā lokasamūhaścet tasyopari patati ityāśaṅkya sa nāvamekāṁ nikaṭe sthāpayituṁ śiṣyānādiṣṭavān|
So Jesus told his disciples to keep a small boat close by, so that the crowd would not crush him.
10 yato'nekamanuṣyāṇāmārogyakaraṇād vyādhigrastāḥ sarvve taṁ spraṣṭuṁ parasparaṁ balena yatnavantaḥ|
For he had cured many of them, and so people kept crowding around him, so all who were sick might touch him.
11 aparañca apavitrabhūtāstaṁ dṛṣṭvā taccaraṇayoḥ patitvā procaiḥ procuḥ, tvamīśvarasya putraḥ|
The foul spirits, too, whenever they caught sight of him, flung themselves down before him, and screamed out, “You are the Son of God”!
12 kintu sa tān dṛḍham ājñāpya svaṁ paricāyituṁ niṣiddhavān|
But he repeatedly warned them not to make him known.
13 anantaraṁ sa parvvatamāruhya yaṁ yaṁ praticchā taṁ tamāhūtavān tataste tatsamīpamāgatāḥ|
Jesus made his way up the hill, and called those whom he wished; and they went to him.
14 tadā sa dvādaśajanān svena saha sthātuṁ susaṁvādapracārāya preritā bhavituṁ
He appointed twelve – whom he also named ‘apostles’ – so that they might be with him, and that he might send them out as his messengers, to preach,
15 sarvvaprakāravyādhīnāṁ śamanakaraṇāya prabhāvaṁ prāptuṁ bhūtān tyājayituñca niyuktavān|
and with power to drive out demons.
16 teṣāṁ nāmānīmāni, śimon sivadiputro
So he appointed the Twelve – Peter (which was the name that Jesus gave to Simon),
17 yākūb tasya bhrātā yohan ca āndriyaḥ philipo barthalamayaḥ,
James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John (to whom he gave the name of Boanerges, which means the Thunderers),
18 mathī thomā ca ālphīyaputro yākūb thaddīyaḥ kinānīyaḥ śimon yastaṁ parahasteṣvarpayiṣyati sa īṣkariyotīyayihūdāśca|
Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot,
19 sa śimone pitara ityupanāma dadau yākūbyohanbhyāṁ ca binerigiś arthato meghanādaputrāvityupanāma dadau|
and Judas Iscariot, the man who betrayed him.
20 anantaraṁ te niveśanaṁ gatāḥ, kintu tatrāpi punarmahān janasamāgamo 'bhavat tasmātte bhoktumapyavakāśaṁ na prāptāḥ|
Jesus went into a house; and again a crowd collected, so that they were not even able to eat their food.
21 tatastasya suhṛllokā imāṁ vārttāṁ prāpya sa hatajñānobhūd iti kathāṁ kathayitvā taṁ dhṛtvānetuṁ gatāḥ|
When his relatives heard of it, they went to take charge of him, for they said that he was out of his mind.
22 aparañca yirūśālama āgatā ye ye'dhyāpakāste jagadurayaṁ puruṣo bhūtapatyābiṣṭastena bhūtapatinā bhūtān tyājayati|
The teachers of the Law, who had come down from Jerusalem, said, “He has Beelzebul in him! He drives the demons out by the help of their chief.”
23 tatastānāhūya yīśu rdṛṣṭāntaiḥ kathāṁ kathitavān śaitān kathaṁ śaitānaṁ tyājayituṁ śaknoti?
So Jesus called them to him, and answered them in parables, “How can Satan drive out Satan?
24 kiñcana rājyaṁ yadi svavirodhena pṛthag bhavati tarhi tad rājyaṁ sthiraṁ sthātuṁ na śaknoti|
When a kingdom is divided against itself, it cannot last;
25 tathā kasyāpi parivāro yadi parasparaṁ virodhī bhavati tarhi sopi parivāraḥ sthiraṁ sthātuṁ na śaknoti|
and when a household is divided against itself, it will not be able to last.
26 tadvat śaitān yadi svavipakṣatayā uttiṣṭhan bhinno bhavati tarhi sopi sthiraṁ sthātuṁ na śaknoti kintūcchinno bhavati|
So, if Satan is in revolt against himself and is divided, he cannot last – his end has come!
27 aparañca prabalaṁ janaṁ prathamaṁ na baddhā kopi tasya gṛhaṁ praviśya dravyāṇi luṇṭhayituṁ na śaknoti, taṁ badvvaiva tasya gṛhasya dravyāṇi luṇṭhayituṁ śaknoti|
“No man who has broken into a strong man’s house can carry off his goods, without first tying him up; and not until then will he plunder his house.
28 atoheto ryuṣmabhyamahaṁ satyaṁ kathayāmi manuṣyāṇāṁ santānā yāni yāni pāpānīśvaranindāñca kurvvanti teṣāṁ tatsarvveṣāmaparādhānāṁ kṣamā bhavituṁ śaknoti,
I tell you that people will be forgiven everything – their sins, and all the slanders that they utter;
30 tasyāpavitrabhūto'sti teṣāmetatkathāhetoḥ sa itthaṁ kathitavān|
This was said in reply to the charge that he had a foul spirit in him.
31 atha tasya mātā bhrātṛgaṇaścāgatya bahistiṣṭhanato lokān preṣya tamāhūtavantaḥ|
His mother and his brothers came, and stood outside, and sent to ask him to come to them.
32 tatastatsannidhau samupaviṣṭā lokāstaṁ babhāṣire paśya bahistava mātā bhrātaraśca tvām anvicchanti|
There was a crowd sitting around Jesus, and some of them said to him, “Look, your mother and your brothers are outside, asking for you.”
33 tadā sa tān pratyuvāca mama mātā kā bhrātaro vā ke? tataḥ paraṁ sa svamīpopaviṣṭān śiṣyān prati avalokanaṁ kṛtvā kathayāmāsa
“Who is my mother? And my brothers?” was his reply.
34 paśyataite mama mātā bhrātaraśca|
Then he looked around on the people sitting in a circle around him, and said, “Here are my mother and my brothers!
35 yaḥ kaścid īśvarasyeṣṭāṁ kriyāṁ karoti sa eva mama bhrātā bhaginī mātā ca|
Whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother.”
