mathiḥ 26
1 yīśuretān prastāvān samāpya śiṣyānūce,
And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples,
2 yuṣmābhi rjñātaṁ dinadvayāt paraṁ nistāramaha upasthāsyati, tatra manujasutaḥ kruśena hantuṁ parakareṣu samarpiṣyate|
Ye know that after two days is [the feast of] the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
3 tataḥ paraṁ pradhānayājakādhyāpakaprāñcaḥ kiyaphānāmno mahāyājakasyāṭṭālikāyāṁ militvā
Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
4 kenopāyena yīśuṁ dhṛtvā hantuṁ śaknuyuriti mantrayāñcakruḥ|
And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill [him].
5 kintu tairuktaṁ mahakāle na dharttavyaḥ, dhṛte prajānāṁ kalahena bhavituṁ śakyate|
But they said, Not on the feast [day], lest there be an uproar among the people.
6 tato baithaniyāpure śimonākhyasya kuṣṭhino veśmani yīśau tiṣṭhati
Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7 kācana yoṣā śvetopalabhājanena mahārghyaṁ sugandhi tailamānīya bhojanāyopaviśatastasya śirobhyaṣecat|
There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat [at meat].
8 kintu tadālokya tacchiṣyaiḥ kupitairuktaṁ, kuta itthamapavyayate?
But when his disciples saw [it], they had indignation, saying, To what purpose [is] this waste?
9 cedidaṁ vyakreṣyata, tarhi bhūrimūlyaṁ prāpya daridrebhyo vyatāriṣyata|
For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
10 yīśunā tadavagatya te samuditāḥ, yoṣāmenāṁ kuto duḥkhinīṁ kurutha, sā māṁ prati sādhu karmmākārṣīt|
When Jesus understood [it], he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.
11 yuṣmākamaṁ samīpe daridrāḥ satatamevāsate, kintu yuṣmākamantikehaṁ nāse satataṁ|
For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.
12 sā mama kāyopari sugandhitailaṁ siktvā mama śmaśānadānakarmmākārṣīt|
For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did [it] for my burial.
13 atohaṁ yuṣmān tathyaṁ vadāmi sarvvasmin jagati yatra yatraiṣa susamācāraḥ pracāriṣyate, tatra tatraitasyā nāryyāḥ smaraṇārtham karmmedaṁ pracāriṣyate|
Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, [there] shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.
14 tato dvādaśaśiṣyāṇām īṣkariyotīyayihūdānāmaka ekaḥ śiṣyaḥ pradhānayājakānāmantikaṁ gatvā kathitavān,
Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,
15 yadi yuṣmākaṁ kareṣu yīśuṁ samarpayāmi, tarhi kiṁ dāsyatha? tadānīṁ te tasmai triṁśanmudrā dātuṁ sthirīkṛtavantaḥ|
And said [unto them], What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.
16 sa tadārabhya taṁ parakareṣu samarpayituṁ suyogaṁ ceṣṭitavān|
And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.
17 anantaraṁ kiṇvaśūnyapūpaparvvaṇaḥ prathamehni śiṣyā yīśum upagatya papracchuḥ bhavatkṛte kutra vayaṁ nistāramahabhojyam āyojayiṣyāmaḥ? bhavataḥ kecchā?
Now the first [day] of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?
18 tadā sa gaditavān, madhyenagaramamukapuṁsaḥ samīpaṁ vrajitvā vadata, guru rgaditavān, matkālaḥ savidhaḥ, saha śiṣyaistvadālaye nistāramahabhojyaṁ bhokṣye|
And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.
19 tadā śiṣyā yīśostādṛśanideśānurūpakarmma vidhāya tatra nistāramahabhojyamāsādayāmāsuḥ|
And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.
20 tataḥ sandhyāyāṁ satyāṁ dvādaśabhiḥ śiṣyaiḥ sākaṁ sa nyaviśat|
Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.
21 aparaṁ bhuñjāna uktavān yuṣmān tathyaṁ vadāmi, yuṣmākameko māṁ parakareṣu samarpayiṣyati|
And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
22 tadā te'tīva duḥkhitā ekaikaśo vaktumārebhire, he prabho, sa kimahaṁ?
And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?
23 tataḥ sa jagāda, mayā sākaṁ yo jano bhojanapātre karaṁ saṁkṣipati, sa eva māṁ parakareṣu samarpayiṣyati|
And he answered and said, He that dippeth [his] hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.
24 manujasutamadhi yādṛśaṁ likhitamāste, tadanurūpā tadgati rbhaviṣyati; kintu yena puṁsā sa parakareṣu samarpayiṣyate, hā hā cet sa nājaniṣyata, tadā tasya kṣemamabhaviṣyat|
The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.
25 tadā yihūdānāmā yo janastaṁ parakareṣu samarpayiṣyati, sa uktavān, he guro, sa kimahaṁ? tataḥ sa pratyuktavān, tvayā satyaṁ gaditam|
Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.
26 anantaraṁ teṣāmaśanakāle yīśuḥ pūpamādāyeśvarīyaguṇānanūdya bhaṁktvā śiṣyebhyaḥ pradāya jagāda, madvapuḥsvarūpamimaṁ gṛhītvā khādata|
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed [it], and brake [it], and gave [it] to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
27 paścāt sa kaṁsaṁ gṛhlan īśvarīyaguṇānanūdya tebhyaḥ pradāya kathitavān, sarvvai ryuṣmābhiranena pātavyaṁ,
And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave [it] to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
28 yasmādanekeṣāṁ pāpamarṣaṇāya pātitaṁ yanmannūtnaniyamarūpaśoṇitaṁ tadetat|
For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
29 aparamahaṁ nūtnagostanīrasaṁ na pāsyāmi, tāvat gostanīphalarasaṁ punaḥ kadāpi na pāsyāmi|
But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.
30 paścāt te gītamekaṁ saṁgīya jaitunākhyagiriṁ gatavantaḥ|
And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
31 tadānīṁ yīśustānavocat, asyāṁ rajanyāmahaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sarvveṣāṁ vighnarūpo bhaviṣyāmi, yato likhitamāste, "meṣāṇāṁ rakṣako yastaṁ prahariṣyāmyahaṁ tataḥ| meṣāṇāṁ nivaho nūnaṁ pravikīrṇo bhaviṣyati"||
Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.
32 kintu śmaśānāt samutthāya yuṣmākamagre'haṁ gālīlaṁ gamiṣyāmi|
But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.
33 pitarastaṁ provāca, bhavāṁścet sarvveṣāṁ vighnarūpo bhavati, tathāpi mama na bhaviṣyati|
Peter answered and said unto him, Though all [men] shall be offended because of thee, [yet] will I never be offended.
34 tato yīśunā sa uktaḥ, tubhyamahaṁ tathyaṁ kathayāmi, yāminyāmasyāṁ caraṇāyudhasya ravāt pūrvvaṁ tvaṁ māṁ tri rnāṅgīkariṣyasi|
Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
35 tataḥ pitara uditavān, yadyapi tvayā samaṁ marttavyaṁ, tathāpi kadāpi tvāṁ na nāṅgīkariṣyāmi; tathaiva sarvve śiṣyāścocuḥ|
Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.
36 anantaraṁ yīśuḥ śiṣyaiḥ sākaṁ getśimānīnāmakaṁ sthānaṁ prasthāya tebhyaḥ kathitavān, adaḥ sthānaṁ gatvā yāvadahaṁ prārthayiṣye tāvad yūyamatropaviśata|
Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.
37 paścāt sa pitaraṁ sivadiyasutau ca saṅginaḥ kṛtvā gatavān, śokākulo'tīva vyathitaśca babhūva|
And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.
38 tānavādīcca mṛtiyātaneva matprāṇānāṁ yātanā jāyate, yūyamatra mayā sārddhaṁ jāgṛta|
Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.
39 tataḥ sa kiñciddūraṁ gatvādhomukhaḥ patan prārthayāñcakre, he matpitaryadi bhavituṁ śaknoti, tarhi kaṁso'yaṁ matto dūraṁ yātu; kintu madicchāvat na bhavatu, tvadicchāvad bhavatu|
And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou [wilt].
40 tataḥ sa śiṣyānupetya tān nidrato nirīkṣya pitarāya kathayāmāsa, yūyaṁ mayā sākaṁ daṇḍamekamapi jāgarituṁ nāśankuta?
And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
41 parīkṣāyāṁ na patituṁ jāgṛta prārthayadhvañca; ātmā samudyatosti, kintu vapu rdurbbalaṁ|
Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed [is] willing, but the flesh [is] weak.
42 sa dvitīyavāraṁ prārthayāñcakre, he mattāta, na pīte yadi kaṁsamidaṁ matto dūraṁ yātuṁ na śaknoti, tarhi tvadicchāvad bhavatu|
He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
43 sa punaretya tān nidrato dadarśa, yatasteṣāṁ netrāṇi nidrayā pūrṇānyāsan|
And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.
44 paścāt sa tān vihāya vrajitvā tṛtīyavāraṁ pūrvvavat kathayan prārthitavān|
And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.
45 tataḥ śiṣyānupāgatya gaditavān, sāmprataṁ śayānāḥ kiṁ viśrāmyatha? paśyata, samaya upāsthāt, manujasutaḥ pāpināṁ kareṣu samarpyate|
Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 uttiṣṭhata, vayaṁ yāmaḥ, yo māṁ parakareṣu masarpayiṣyati, paśyata, sa samīpamāyāti|
Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.
47 etatkathākathanakāle dvādaśaśiṣyāṇāmeko yihūdānāmako mukhyayājakalokaprācīnaiḥ prahitān asidhāriyaṣṭidhāriṇo manujān gṛhītvā tatsamīpamupatasthau|
And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48 asau parakareṣvarpayitā pūrvvaṁ tān itthaṁ saṅketayāmāsa, yamahaṁ cumbiṣye, so'sau manujaḥ, saeva yuṣmābhi rdhāryyatāṁ|
Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.
49 tadā sa sapadi yīśumupāgatya he guro, praṇamāmītyuktvā taṁ cucumbe|
And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.
50 tadā yīśustamuvāca, he mitraṁ kimarthamāgatosi? tadā tairāgatya yīśurākramya daghre|
And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.
51 tato yīśoḥ saṅgināmekaḥ karaṁ prasāryya koṣādasiṁ bahiṣkṛtya mahāyājakasya dāsamekamāhatya tasya karṇaṁ ciccheda|
And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out [his] hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest’s, and smote off his ear.
52 tato yīśustaṁ jagāda, khaḍgaṁ svasthāne nidhehi yato ye ye janā asiṁ dhārayanti, taevāsinā vinaśyanti|
Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
53 aparaṁ pitā yathā madantikaṁ svargīyadūtānāṁ dvādaśavāhinīto'dhikaṁ prahiṇuyāt mayā tamuddiśyedānīmeva tathā prārthayituṁ na śakyate, tvayā kimitthaṁ jñāyate?
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
54 tathā satītthaṁ ghaṭiṣyate dharmmapustakasya yadidaṁ vākyaṁ tat kathaṁ sidhyet?
But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
55 tadānīṁ yīśu rjananivahaṁ jagāda, yūyaṁ khaḍgayaṣṭīn ādāya māṁ kiṁ cauraṁ dharttumāyātāḥ? ahaṁ pratyahaṁ yuṣmābhiḥ sākamupaviśya samupādiśaṁ, tadā māṁ nādharata;
In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.
56 kintu bhaviṣyadvādināṁ vākyānāṁ saṁsiddhaye sarvvametadabhūt|tadā sarvve śiṣyāstaṁ vihāya palāyanta|
But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.
57 anantaraṁ te manujā yīśuṁ dhṛtvā yatrādhyāpakaprāñcaḥ pariṣadaṁ kurvvanta upāviśan tatra kiyaphānāmakamahāyājakasyāntikaṁ ninyuḥ|
And they that had laid hold on Jesus led [him] away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.
58 kintu śeṣe kiṁ bhaviṣyatīti vettuṁ pitaro dūre tatpaścād vrajitvā mahāyājakasyāṭṭālikāṁ praviśya dāsaiḥ sahita upāviśat|
But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest’s palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end.
59 tadānīṁ pradhānayājakaprācīnamantriṇaḥ sarvve yīśuṁ hantuṁ mṛṣāsākṣyam alipsanta,
Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death;
60 kintu na lebhire| anekeṣu mṛṣāsākṣiṣvāgateṣvapi tanna prāpuḥ|
But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, [yet] found they none. At the last came two false witnesses,
61 śeṣe dvau mṛṣāsākṣiṇāvāgatya jagadatuḥ, pumānayamakathayat, ahamīśvaramandiraṁ bhaṁktvā dinatrayamadhye tannirmmātuṁ śaknomi|
And said, This [fellow] said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.
62 tadā mahāyājaka utthāya yīśum avādīt| tvaṁ kimapi na prativadasi? tvāmadhi kimete sākṣyaṁ vadanti?
And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what [is it which] these witness against thee?
63 kintu yīśu rmaunībhūya tasyau| tato mahāyājaka uktavān, tvām amareśvaranāmnā śapayāmi, tvamīśvarasya putro'bhiṣikto bhavasi naveti vada|
But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.
64 yīśuḥ pratyavadat, tvaṁ satyamuktavān; ahaṁ yuṣmān tathyaṁ vadāmi, itaḥparaṁ manujasutaṁ sarvvaśaktimato dakṣiṇapārśve sthātuṁ gagaṇasthaṁ jaladharānāruhyāyāntaṁ vīkṣadhve|
Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
65 tadā mahāyājako nijavasanaṁ chittvā jagāda, eṣa īśvaraṁ ninditavān, asmākamaparasākṣyeṇa kiṁ prayojanaṁ? paśyata, yūyamevāsyāsyād īśvaranindāṁ śrutavantaḥ,
Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy.
66 yuṣmābhiḥ kiṁ vivicyate? te pratyūcuḥ, vadhārho'yaṁ|
What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.
67 tato lokaistadāsye niṣṭhīvitaṁ kecit pratalamāhatya kecicca capeṭamāhatya babhāṣire,
Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands,
68 he khrīṣṭa tvāṁ kaścapeṭamāhatavān? iti gaṇayitvā vadāsmān|
Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?
69 pitaro bahiraṅgana upaviśati, tadānīmekā dāsī tamupāgatya babhāṣe, tvaṁ gālīlīyayīśoḥ sahacaraekaḥ|
Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.
70 kintu sa sarvveṣāṁ samakṣam anaṅgīkṛtyāvādīt, tvayā yaducyate, tadarthamahaṁ na vedmi|
But he denied before [them] all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
71 tadā tasmin bahirdvāraṁ gate 'nyā dāsī taṁ nirīkṣya tatratyajanānavadat, ayamapi nāsaratīyayīśunā sārddham āsīt|
And when he was gone out into the porch, another [maid] saw him, and said unto them that were there, This [fellow] was also with Jesus of Nazareth.
72 tataḥ sa śapathena punaranaṅgīkṛtya kathitavān, taṁ naraṁ na paricinomi|
And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
73 kṣaṇāt paraṁ tiṣṭhanto janā etya pitaram avadan, tvamavaśyaṁ teṣāmeka iti tvaduccāraṇameva dyotayati|
And after a while came unto [him] they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art [one] of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.
74 kintu so'bhiśapya kathitavān, taṁ janaṁ nāhaṁ paricinomi, tadā sapadi kukkuṭo rurāva|
Then began he to curse and to swear, [saying], I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew.
75 kukkuṭaravāt prāk tvaṁ māṁ trirapāhnoṣyase, yaiṣā vāg yīśunāvādi tāṁ pitaraḥ saṁsmṛtya bahiritvā khedād bhṛśaṁ cakranda|
And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
