Matthew 17
1 After six days, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain by themselves.
anantaraṁ ṣaḍdinebhyaḥ paraṁ yīśuḥ pitaraṁ yākūbaṁ tatsahajaṁ yohanañca gṛhlan uccādre rviviktasthānam āgatya teṣāṁ samakṣaṁ rūpamanyat dadhāra|
2 He was changed before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
tena tadāsyaṁ tejasvi, tadābharaṇam ālokavat pāṇḍaramabhavat|
3 Behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them talking with him.
anyacca tena sākaṁ saṁlapantau mūsā eliyaśca tebhyo darśanaṁ dadatuḥ|
4 Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let’s make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
tadānīṁ pitaro yīśuṁ jagāda, he prabho sthitiratrāsmākaṁ śubhā, yadi bhavatānumanyate, tarhi bhavadarthamekaṁ mūsārthamekam eliyārthañcaikam iti trīṇi dūṣyāṇi nirmmama|
5 While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them. Behold, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”
etatkathanakāla eka ujjavalaḥ payodasteṣāmupari chāyāṁ kṛtavān, vāridād eṣā nabhasīyā vāg babhūva, mamāyaṁ priyaḥ putraḥ, asmin mama mahāsantoṣa etasya vākyaṁ yūyaṁ niśāmayata|
6 When the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very afraid.
kintu vācametāṁ śṛṇvantaeva śiṣyā mṛśaṁ śaṅkamānā nyubjā nyapatan|
7 Jesus came and touched them and said, “Get up, and don’t be afraid.”
tadā yīśurāgatya teṣāṁ gātrāṇi spṛśan uvāca, uttiṣṭhata, mā bhaiṣṭa|
8 Lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus alone.
tadānīṁ netrāṇyunmīlya yīśuṁ vinā kamapi na dadṛśuḥ|
9 As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Don’t tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead.”
tataḥ param adreravarohaṇakāle yīśustān ityādideśa, manujasutasya mṛtānāṁ madhyādutthānaṁ yāvanna jāyate, tāvat yuṣmābhiretaddarśanaṁ kasmaicidapi na kathayitavyaṁ|
10 His disciples asked him, saying, “Then why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
tadā śiṣyāstaṁ papracchuḥ, prathamam eliya āyāsyatīti kuta upādhyāyairucyate?
11 Jesus answered them, “Elijah indeed comes first, and will restore all things;
tato yīśuḥ pratyavādīt, eliyaḥ prāgetya sarvvāṇi sādhayiṣyatīti satyaṁ,
12 but I tell you that Elijah has come already, and they didn’t recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also suffer by them.”
kintvahaṁ yuṣmān vacmi, eliya etya gataḥ, te tamaparicitya tasmin yathecchaṁ vyavajahuḥ; manujasutenāpi teṣāmantike tādṛg duḥkhaṁ bhoktavyaṁ|
13 Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the Baptizer.
tadānīṁ sa majjayitāraṁ yohanamadhi kathāmetāṁ vyāhṛtavān, itthaṁ tacchiṣyā bubudhire|
14 When they came to the multitude, a man came to him, kneeling down to him and saying,
paścāt teṣu jananivahasyāntikamāgateṣu kaścit manujastadantikametya jānūnī pātayitvā kathitavān,
15 “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic and suffers grievously; for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.
he prabho, matputraṁ prati kṛpāṁ vidadhātu, sopasmārāmayena bhṛśaṁ vyathitaḥ san punaḥ puna rvahnau muhu rjalamadhye patati|
16 So I brought him to your disciples, and they could not cure him.”
tasmād bhavataḥ śiṣyāṇāṁ samīpe tamānayaṁ kintu te taṁ svāsthaṁ karttuṁ na śaktāḥ|
17 Jesus answered, “Faithless and perverse generation! How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me.”
tadā yīśuḥ kathitavān re aviśvāsinaḥ, re vipathagāminaḥ, punaḥ katikālān ahaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sannidhau sthāsyāmi? katikālān vā yuṣmān sahiṣye? tamatra mamāntikamānayata|
18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.
paścād yīśunā tarjataeva sa bhūtastaṁ vihāya gatavān, taddaṇḍaeva sa bālako nirāmayo'bhūt|
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, “Why weren’t we able to cast it out?”
tataḥ śiṣyā guptaṁ yīśumupāgatya babhāṣire, kuto vayaṁ taṁ bhūtaṁ tyājayituṁ na śaktāḥ?
20 He said to them, “Because of your unbelief. For most certainly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.
yīśunā te proktāḥ, yuṣmākamapratyayāt;
21 But this kind doesn’t go out except by prayer and fasting.”
yuṣmānahaṁ tathyaṁ vacmi yadi yuṣmākaṁ sarṣapaikamātropi viśvāso jāyate, tarhi yuṣmābhirasmin śaile tvamitaḥ sthānāt tat sthānaṁ yāhīti brūte sa tadaiva caliṣyati, yuṣmākaṁ kimapyasādhyañca karmma na sthāsyāti| kintu prārthanopavāsau vinaitādṛśo bhūto na tyājyeta|
22 While they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,
aparaṁ teṣāṁ gālīlpradeśe bhramaṇakāle yīśunā te gaditāḥ, manujasuto janānāṁ kareṣu samarpayiṣyate tai rhaniṣyate ca,
23 and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up.” They were exceedingly sorry.
kintu tṛtīye'hina ma utthāpiṣyate, tena te bhṛśaṁ duḥkhitā babhūvaḥ|
24 When they had come to Capernaum, those who collected the didrachma coins came to Peter, and said, “Doesn’t your teacher pay the didrachma?”
tadanantaraṁ teṣu kapharnāhūmnagaramāgateṣu karasaṁgrāhiṇaḥ pitarāntikamāgatya papracchuḥ, yuṣmākaṁ guruḥ kiṁ mandirārthaṁ karaṁ na dadāti? tataḥ pitaraḥ kathitavān dadāti|
25 He said, “Yes.” When he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?”
tatastasmin gṛhamadhyamāgate tasya kathākathanāt pūrvvameva yīśuruvāca, he śimon, medinyā rājānaḥ svasvāpatyebhyaḥ kiṁ videśibhyaḥ kebhyaḥ karaṁ gṛhlanti? atra tvaṁ kiṁ budhyase? tataḥ pitara uktavān, videśibhyaḥ|
26 Peter said to him, “From strangers.” Jesus said to him, “Therefore the children are exempt.
tadā yīśuruktavān, tarhi santānā muktāḥ santi|
27 But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. Take that, and give it to them for me and you.”
tathāpi yathāsmābhisteṣāmantarāyo na janyate, tatkṛte jaladhestīraṁ gatvā vaḍiśaṁ kṣipa, tenādau yo mīna utthāsyati, taṁ ghṛtvā tanmukhe mocite tolakaikaṁ rūpyaṁ prāpsyasi, tad gṛhītvā tava mama ca kṛte tebhyo dehi|
