lūkaḥ 8
1 aparañca yīśu rdvādaśabhiḥ śiṣyaiḥ sārddhaṁ nānānagarēṣu nānāgrāmēṣu ca gacchan iśvarīyarājatvasya susaṁvādaṁ pracārayituṁ prārēbhē|
Soon afterward Jesus was going through every city and village, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The twelve were with him,
2 tadā yasyāḥ sapta bhūtā niragacchan sā magdalīnīti vikhyātā mariyam hērōdrājasya gr̥hādhipatēḥ hōṣē rbhāryyā yōhanā śūśānā
as well as some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary (called Magdalene) from whom seven demons had gone out,
3 prabhr̥tayō yā bahvyaḥ striyaḥ duṣṭabhūtēbhyō rōgēbhyaśca muktāḥ satyō nijavibhūtī rvyayitvā tamasēvanta, tāḥ sarvvāstēna sārddham āsan|
Joanna the wife of Chuza (Herod's steward), Susanna, and many others. These women provided for Jesus and his disciples out of their own resources.
4 anantaraṁ nānānagarēbhyō bahavō lōkā āgatya tasya samīpē'milan, tadā sa tēbhya ēkāṁ dr̥ṣṭāntakathāṁ kathayāmāsa| ēkaḥ kr̥ṣībalō bījāni vaptuṁ bahirjagāma,
As a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, he spoke by way of a parable:
5 tatō vapanakālē katipayāni bījāni mārgapārśvē pētuḥ, tatastāni padatalai rdalitāni pakṣibhi rbhakṣitāni ca|
“A sower went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some seed fell along the path and was trampled underfoot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
6 katipayāni bījāni pāṣāṇasthalē patitāni yadyapi tānyaṅkuritāni tathāpi rasābhāvāt śuśuṣuḥ|
Other seed fell on the rock, and as it grew up, it withered away because it had no moisture.
7 katipayāni bījāni kaṇṭakivanamadhyē patitāni tataḥ kaṇṭakivanāni saṁvr̥ddhya tāni jagrasuḥ|
Other seed fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up with it and choked it.
8 tadanyāni katipayabījāni ca bhūmyāmuttamāyāṁ pētustatastānyaṅkurayitvā śataguṇāni phalāni phēluḥ| sa imā kathāṁ kathayitvā prōccaiḥ prōvāca, yasya śrōtuṁ śrōtrē staḥ sa śr̥ṇōtu|
But other seed fell into good soil, and when it grew, it produced a hundred times more than what was sown.” As he said this, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9 tataḥ paraṁ śiṣyāstaṁ papracchurasya dr̥ṣṭāntasya kiṁ tātparyyaṁ?
Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”
10 tataḥ sa vyājahāra, īśvarīyarājyasya guhyāni jñātuṁ yuṣmabhyamadhikārō dīyatē kintvanyē yathā dr̥ṣṭvāpi na paśyanti śrutvāpi ma budhyantē ca tadarthaṁ tēṣāṁ purastāt tāḥ sarvvāḥ kathā dr̥ṣṭāntēna kathyantē|
He said, “To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest I speak in parables, so that ‘they may see but not perceive, and hear but not understand.’
11 dr̥ṣṭāntasyāsyābhiprāyaḥ, īśvarīyakathā bījasvarūpā|
“Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.
12 yē kathāmātraṁ śr̥ṇvanti kintu paścād viśvasya yathā paritrāṇaṁ na prāpnuvanti tadāśayēna śaitānētya hr̥dayātr̥ tāṁ kathām apaharati ta ēva mārgapārśvasthabhūmisvarūpāḥ|
The ones along the path are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so that they may not believe and be saved.
13 yē kathaṁ śrutvā sānandaṁ gr̥hlanti kintvabaddhamūlatvāt svalpakālamātraṁ pratītya parīkṣākālē bhraśyanti taēva pāṣāṇabhūmisvarūpāḥ|
The ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. Yet they have no root; they believe for a while, but in a time of testing they fall away.
14 yē kathāṁ śrutvā yānti viṣayacintāyāṁ dhanalōbhēna ēhikasukhē ca majjanta upayuktaphalāni na phalanti ta ēvōptabījakaṇṭakibhūsvarūpāḥ|
The seed that fell among the thorns are those who have heard, but as they go on their way they are choked by the cares, riches, and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature.
15 kintu yē śrutvā saralaiḥ śuddhaiścāntaḥkaraṇaiḥ kathāṁ gr̥hlanti dhairyyam avalambya phalānyutpādayanti ca ta ēvōttamamr̥tsvarūpāḥ|
But the seed in the good soil are those who hear the word, hold fast to it with an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patient endurance.
16 aparañca pradīpaṁ prajvālya kōpi pātrēṇa nācchādayati tathā khaṭvādhōpi na sthāpayati, kintu dīpādhārōparyyēva sthāpayati, tasmāt pravēśakā dīptiṁ paśyanti|
“No one lights a lamp and covers it with a container or puts it under a bed. Instead, it is put on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see its light.
17 yanna prakāśayiṣyatē tādr̥g aprakāśitaṁ vastu kimapi nāsti yacca na suvyaktaṁ pracārayiṣyatē tādr̥g gr̥ptaṁ vastu kimapi nāsti|
For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything hidden away that will not be made known and come to light.
18 atō yūyaṁ kēna prakārēṇa śr̥ṇutha tatra sāvadhānā bhavata, yasya samīpē barddhatē tasmai punardāsyatē kintu yasyāśrayē na barddhatē tasya yadyadasti tadapi tasmāt nēṣyatē|
Therefore consider how you hear, for whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”
19 aparañca yīśō rmātā bhrātaraśca tasya samīpaṁ jigamiṣavaḥ
Then Jesus' mother and brothers came to him, but they were not able to reach him because of the crowd.
20 kintu janatāsambādhāt tatsannidhiṁ prāptuṁ na śēkuḥ| tatpaścāt tava mātā bhrātaraśca tvāṁ sākṣāt cikīrṣantō bahistiṣṭhanatīti vārttāyāṁ tasmai kathitāyāṁ
So some people told him, “Yoʋr mother and yoʋr brothers are standing outside, wishing to see yoʋ.”
21 sa pratyuvāca; yē janā īśvarasya kathāṁ śrutvā tadanurūpamācaranti taēva mama mātā bhrātaraśca|
But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”
22 anantaraṁ ēkadā yīśuḥ śiṣyaiḥ sārddhaṁ nāvamāruhya jagāda, āyāta vayaṁ hradasya pāraṁ yāmaḥ, tatastē jagmuḥ|
One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples and said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side of the lake.” So they set out,
23 tēṣu naukāṁ vāhayatsu sa nidadrau;
and as they were sailing along, he fell asleep. Then a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were in danger as the boat was being swamped by the waves.
24 athākasmāt prabalajhañbhśagamād hradē naukāyāṁ taraṅgairācchannāyāṁ vipat tān jagrāsa|tasmād yīśōrantikaṁ gatvā hē gurō hē gurō prāṇā nō yāntīti gaditvā taṁ jāgarayāmbabhūvuḥ|tadā sa utthāya vāyuṁ taraṅgāṁśca tarjayāmāsa tasmādubhau nivr̥tya sthirau babhūvatuḥ|
So they came to Jesus and woke him up, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” Then he rose and rebuked the wind and the raging water. They ceased, and all was calm.
25 sa tān babhāṣē yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsaḥ ka? tasmāttē bhītā vismitāśca parasparaṁ jagaduḥ, ahō kīdr̥gayaṁ manujaḥ pavanaṁ pānīyañcādiśati tadubhayaṁ tadādēśaṁ vahati|
Then he said to his disciples, “Where is your faith?” But they were afraid and amazed, saying to one another, “Who then is this, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
26 tataḥ paraṁ gālīlpradēśasya sammukhasthagidērīyapradēśē naukāyāṁ lagantyāṁ taṭē'varōhamāvād
Then they sailed to the region of the Gadarenes, which is across the lake from Galilee.
27 bahutithakālaṁ bhūtagrasta ēkō mānuṣaḥ purādāgatya taṁ sākṣāccakāra| sa manuṣō vāsō na paridadhat gr̥hē ca na vasan kēvalaṁ śmaśānam adhyuvāsa|
When Jesus stepped ashore, he was met by a man from the city who had been possessed by demons for a long time. This man did not wear clothes or live in a house but among the tombs.
28 sa yīśuṁ dr̥ṣṭvaiva cīcchabdaṁ cakāra tasya sammukhē patitvā prōccairjagāda ca, hē sarvvapradhānēśvarasya putra, mayā saha tava kaḥ sambandhaḥ? tvayi vinayaṁ karōmi māṁ mā yātaya|
When he saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, “What do yoʋ have to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg yoʋ, do not torment me.”
29 yataḥ sa taṁ mānuṣaṁ tyaktvā yātum amēdhyabhūtam ādidēśa; sa bhūtastaṁ mānuṣam asakr̥d dadhāra tasmāllōkāḥ śr̥ṅkhalēna nigaḍēna ca babandhuḥ; sa tad bhaṁktvā bhūtavaśatvāt madhyēprāntaraṁ yayau|
For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and he would be bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard, but he would break the chains and be driven by the demon into desolate places.
30 anantaraṁ yīśustaṁ papraccha tava kinnāma? sa uvāca, mama nāma bāhinō yatō bahavō bhūtāstamāśiśriyuḥ|
Jesus then asked him, “What is yoʋr name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered him.
And he begged Jesus not to command them to go away into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 tadā parvvatōpari varāhavrajaścarati tasmād bhūtā vinayēna prōcuḥ, amuṁ varāhavrajam āśrayitum asmān anujānīhi; tataḥ sōnujajñau|
Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding there on the mountain. The demons begged Jesus to permit them to enter the pigs. So he gave them permission.
33 tataḥ paraṁ bhūtāstaṁ mānuṣaṁ vihāya varāhavrajam āśiśriyuḥ varāhavrajāśca tatkṣaṇāt kaṭakēna dhāvantō hradē prāṇān vijr̥huḥ|
Then the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
34 tad dr̥ṣṭvā śūkararakṣakāḥ palāyamānā nagaraṁ grāmañca gatvā tatsarvvavr̥ttāntaṁ kathayāmāsuḥ|
When those who had been feeding the pigs saw what happened, they ran off and reported it in the city and in the countryside.
35 tataḥ kiṁ vr̥ttam ētaddarśanārthaṁ lōkā nirgatya yīśōḥ samīpaṁ yayuḥ, taṁ mānuṣaṁ tyaktabhūtaṁ parihitavastraṁ svasthamānuṣavad yīśōścaraṇasannidhau sūpaviśantaṁ vilōkya bibhyuḥ|
So the people came out to see what had happened. When they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting at Jesus' feet, clothed and in his right mind, and they were afraid.
36 yē lōkāstasya bhūtagrastasya svāsthyakaraṇaṁ dadr̥śustē tēbhyaḥ sarvvavr̥ttāntaṁ kathayāmāsuḥ|
Those who had seen it told them how the demon-possessed man had been delivered.
37 tadanantaraṁ tasya gidērīyapradēśasya caturdiksthā bahavō janā atitrastā vinayēna taṁ jagaduḥ, bhavān asmākaṁ nikaṭād vrajatu tasmāt sa nāvamāruhya tatō vyāghuṭya jagāma|
Then the entire multitude from the surrounding region of the Gadarenes asked Jesus to depart from them, for they were seized with great fear. So he got into the boat and left.
38 tadānīṁ tyaktabhūtamanujastēna saha sthātuṁ prārthayāñcakrē
Now the man from whom the demons had gone out begged to go with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 kintu tadartham īśvaraḥ kīdr̥ṅmahākarmma kr̥tavān iti nivēśanaṁ gatvā vijñāpaya, yīśuḥ kathāmētāṁ kathayitvā taṁ visasarja| tataḥ sa vrajitvā yīśustadarthaṁ yanmahākarmma cakāra tat purasya sarvvatra prakāśayituṁ prārēbhē|
“Return to yoʋr house, and declare all that God has done for yoʋ.” So the man went away, proclaiming throughout the entire city all that Jesus had done for him.
40 atha yīśau parāvr̥tyāgatē lōkāstaṁ ādarēṇa jagr̥hu ryasmāttē sarvvē tamapēkṣāñcakrirē|
Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they had all been waiting for him.
41 tadanantaraṁ yāyīrnāmnō bhajanagēhasyaikōdhipa āgatya yīśōścaraṇayōḥ patitvā svanivēśanāgamanārthaṁ tasmin vinayaṁ cakāra,
And behold, there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus' feet and begged him to come to his house,
42 yatastasya dvādaśavarṣavayaskā kanyaikāsīt sā mr̥takalpābhavat| tatastasya gamanakālē mārgē lōkānāṁ mahān samāgamō babhūva|
because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. As Jesus went on his way, the crowds were pressing in on him.
43 dvādaśavarṣāṇi pradararōgagrastā nānā vaidyaiścikitsitā sarvvasvaṁ vyayitvāpi svāsthyaṁ na prāptā yā yōṣit sā yīśōḥ paścādāgatya tasya vastragranthiṁ pasparśa|
Now there was a woman who had suffered from a flow of blood for twelve years, and even though she had spent her entire livelihood on physicians, she could not be healed by anyone.
44 tasmāt tatkṣaṇāt tasyā raktasrāvō ruddhaḥ|
She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of his garment, and the flow of her blood stopped at once.
45 tadānīṁ yīśuravadat kēnāhaṁ spr̥ṣṭaḥ? tatō'nēkairanaṅgīkr̥tē pitarastasya saṅginaścāvadan, hē gurō lōkā nikaṭasthāḥ santastava dēhē gharṣayanti, tathāpi kēnāhaṁ spr̥ṣṭa̮iti bhavān kutaḥ pr̥cchati?
Then Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When everyone denied it, Peter and those who were with him said, “Master, the crowds are surrounding yoʋ and pressing against yoʋ, and yet yoʋ say, ‘Who touched me?’”
46 yīśuḥ kathayāmāsa, kēnāpyahaṁ spr̥ṣṭō, yatō mattaḥ śakti rnirgatēti mayā niścitamajñāyi|
But Jesus said, “Someone touched me, for I know that power has gone out from me.”
47 tadā sā nārī svayaṁ na guptēti viditvā kampamānā satī tasya sammukhē papāta; yēna nimittēna taṁ pasparśa sparśamātrācca yēna prakārēṇa svasthābhavat tat sarvvaṁ tasya sākṣādācakhyau|
When the woman saw that she could not escape notice, she came trembling and fell down before him, and in the presence of all the people she told him the reason why she had touched him, and how she had been healed at once.
48 tataḥ sa tāṁ jagāda hē kanyē susthirā bhava, tava viśvāsastvāṁ svasthām akārṣīt tvaṁ kṣēmēṇa yāhi|
Then Jesus said to her, “Take courage, daughter; yoʋr faith has healed yoʋ. Go in peace.”
49 yīśōrētadvākyavadanakālē tasyādhipatē rnivēśanāt kaścillōka āgatya taṁ babhāṣē, tava kanyā mr̥tā guruṁ mā kliśāna|
While he was still speaking, someone came from the ruler of the synagogue's house and said to him, “Yoʋr daughter has died; do not trouble the teacher.”
50 kintu yīśustadākarṇyādhipatiṁ vyājahāra, mā bhaiṣīḥ kēvalaṁ viśvasihi tasmāt sā jīviṣyati|
But when Jesus heard this, he said to him in response, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”
51 atha tasya nivēśanē prāptē sa pitaraṁ yōhanaṁ yākūbañca kanyāyā mātaraṁ pitarañca vinā, anyaṁ kañcana pravēṣṭuṁ vārayāmāsa|
When he came to the house, Jesus allowed no one to go in, except Peter, John, James, and the child's father and mother.
52 aparañca yē rudanti vilapanti ca tān sarvvān janān uvāca, yūyaṁ mā rōdiṣṭa kanyā na mr̥tā nidrāti|
Meanwhile, all the people were weeping and mourning for her, but Jesus said, “Do not weep; she is not dead but sleeping.”
53 kintu sā niścitaṁ mr̥tēti jñātvā tē tamupajahasuḥ|
And they began laughing at him, knowing that she was dead.
54 paścāt sa sarvvān bahiḥ kr̥tvā kanyāyāḥ karau dhr̥tvājuhuvē, hē kanyē tvamuttiṣṭha,
But Jesus put them all outside, took hold of the girl's hand, and called out, “Child, arise!”
55 tasmāt tasyāḥ prāṇēṣu punarāgatēṣu sā tatkṣaṇād uttasyau| tadānīṁ tasyai kiñcid bhakṣyaṁ dātum ādidēśa|
Her spirit returned, and she got up at once. Then he told them to give her something to eat.
56 tatastasyāḥ pitarau vismayaṁ gatau kintu sa tāvādidēśa ghaṭanāyā ētasyāḥ kathāṁ kasmaicidapi mā kathayataṁ|
Her parents were amazed, but he ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
