1 तब पवित्र आत्माले भरिएर येशू यर्दन नदीबाट फर्कनुभयो, अनि आत्माद्वारा उजाड-स्थानमा डोर्‍याइनुभयो ।
Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness
2 त्‍यहाँ उहाँ चालिस दिनसम्म दियाबलसद्वारा परीक्षामा पर्नुभयो । ती दिनहरूमा उहाँले केही पनि खानुभएको थिएन, र त्‍यो समयको अन्त्‍यमा उहाँ भोकाउनुभएको थियो ।
for forty days, being tempted by the devil. He ate nothing in those days. Afterward, when they were completed, he was hungry.
3 तब शैतानले येशूलाई भन्यो, “यदि तपाईं परमेश्‍वरका पुत्र हुनुहुन्छ भने, यो ढुङ्गालाई रोटी हुन आज्ञा दिनुहोस् ।”
The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 येशूले जवाफ दिनुभयो, “लेखिएको छ, मानिस रोटीले मात्र बाँच्‍न सक्दैन ।”
Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’”
5 त्यसपछि, शैतानले उहाँलाई उच्‍च स्थानमा लगेर संसारका सबै राज्यहरूलाई छिनभरमै देखायो ।
The devil, leading him up on a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 शैतानले उहाँलाई भन्यो, “म तपाईंलाई यी सबै राज्यहरू र यसको वैभवमाथि शासन गर्ने अधिकार दिनेछु । म यो गर्न सक्छु, किनकि यी सबैमाथि शासन गर्ने अधिकार मलाई दिइएको छ, मैले जसलाई चाहन्छु त्यसलाई दिन सक्छु ।
The devil said to him, “I will give you all this authority and their glory, for it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I want.
7 यसकारण यदि तपाईंले मलाई दण्डवत् गरी आराधना गर्नुभयो भने, यी सबै तपाईंकै हुनेछन् ।”
If you therefore will worship before me, it will all be yours.”
8 तर येशूले जवाफ दिनुभयो र त्‍यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “लेखिएको छ, तैँले आफ्ना परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको मात्र आराधना गर्नू र उहाँको मात्र सेवा गर्नू ।”
Jesus answered him, “Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’”
9 त्यसपछि शैतानले येशूलाई यरूशलेम मन्‍दिरको उच्‍च स्थानको टुप्‍पामा लगेर उहाँलाई भन्यो, “यदि तपाईं परमेश्‍वरका पुत्र हुनुहुन्छ भने, यहाँबाट तल हाम्फाल्नुहोस् ।
He led him to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down from here,
10 किनभने लेखिएको छ, तपाईंको सुरक्षा र वास्ता गर्न ‘उहाँले आफ्ना दूतहरूलाई आज्ञा गर्नुहुनेछ ।’
for it is written, ‘He will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you;’
11 अनि तिनीहरूले तपाईंलाई हात हातै थाम्‍नेछन्, त्यसकारण तपाईंका खुट्टा ढुङ्गामा ठोकिने छैनन् ।”
and, ‘On their hands they will bear you up, lest perhaps you dash your foot against a stone.’”
12 येशूले जवाफ दिँदै त्यसलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “यस्तो भनिएको छ, तैँले आफ्ना परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको परीक्षा नगर्नू ।”
Jesus answering, said to him, “It has been said, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’”
13 अनि शैतानले येशूको परीक्षा गरिसकेपछि उहाँलाई अर्को समय नआएसम्म छोडेर गयो ।
When the devil had completed every temptation, he departed from him until another time.
14 त्यसपछि पवित्र आत्माको शक्‍तिद्वारा येशू गालीलमा फर्कनुभयो र उहाँको विषयमा भएको खबर वरिपरिका सबै क्षेत्रहरूमा फैलियो ।
Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee, and news about him spread through all the surrounding area.
15 उहाँले तिनीहरूका सभाघरहरूमा सिकाउनुभयो र हरेकले उहाँको प्रशंसा गरे ।
He taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all.
16 एक दिन येशू नासरतमा आउनुभयो, जुन सहरमा येशू हुर्कनुभएको थियो । उहाँको रीतिअनुसार उहाँ यहूदी सभाघरमा प्रवेश गरी विश्रामको दिनमा खडा भई धर्मशास्‍त्र पाठ गर्नुभयो ।
He came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. He entered, as was his custom, into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.
17 उहाँलाई यशैया अगमवक्‍ताको चर्मपत्रको मुट्ठो दिइयो । त्यसपछि उहाँले मुट्ठो खोल्नुभयो र यो लेखिएको ठाउँ भेट्टाउनुभयो ।
The book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. He opened the book, and found the place where it was written,
18 “परमप्रभुका आत्मा ममाथि छ, किनभने उहाँले मलाई गरिबहरूलाई सुसमाचार सुनाउनको निम्ति अभिषेक गर्नुभएको छ । उहाँले कैदीहरूलाई छुटकाराको घोषणा गर्न मलाई पठाउनुभएको छ र दृष्‍टिविहीनहरूलाई दृष्‍टि दिन, अन्यायमा परेकाहरूलाई स्वतन्‍त्रता प्रदान गर्न,
“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken hearted, to proclaim release to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, to deliver those who are crushed,
19 र परमप्रभुको निगाहको वर्ष घोषणा गर्न मलाई पठाउनुभएको छ ।”
and to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”
20 त्यसपछि उहाँले चर्मपत्रको मुट्ठोलाई बन्‍द गर्नुभयो र सभाघरको मुख्य सेवकलाई फिर्ता गर्नुभयो र उहाँ बस्‍नुभयो । सभाघरमा उपस्थित भएका सबै मानिसहरूको हेराइ उहाँमाथि पर्‍यो ।
He closed the book, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.
21 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “आज तिमीहरूले यी वचनहरू सुन्दा सुन्दै यो पुरा भएको छ ।”
He began to tell them, “Today, this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”
22 उहाँले बोल्नुभएको वचनको सबैजना साक्षी भए र सबै मानिसहरू उहाँको मुखबाट निस्केको अनुग्रही वचनप्रति आश्‍चर्य चकित भए । उनीहरू यसो भन्दै थिए, “के यी मानिस ‍योसेफका छोरा होइनन् र?
All testified about him and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth; and they said, “Is not this Joseph’s son?”
23 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “निश्‍चय नै तिमीहरूले मलाई यो उखान भन्‍नेछौ, ए वैद्य तिमी आफैँलाई निको पार । कफर्नहुममा जे-जति कामहरू तपाईंले गर्नुभयो त्यो हामीले सुनेका छौँ, ती कार्यहरू तिम्रो आफ्नो स्थानीय ठाउँमा पनि गर ।”
He said to them, “Doubtless you will tell me this proverb, ‘Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we have heard done at Capernaum, do also here in your hometown.’”
24 साँच्‍चै म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, “कुनै पनि अगमवक्‍तालाई आफ्नो ठाउँमा स्वीकार गरिँदैन ।
He said, “Most certainly I tell you, no prophet is acceptable in his hometown.
25 तर म तिमीहरूलाई सत्य भन्दछु, तिन वर्ष छ महिनासम्म स्वर्गको ढोका बन्द गरी वृष्‍टि रोकिँदा र सारा भूमीमा ठुलो अनिकाल पर्दा एलियाको समयमा इस्राएलमा धेरै विधवाहरू थिए ।
But truly I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut up three years and six months, when a great famine came over all the land.
26 तर एलियालाई अन्य कुनै व्यक्‍ति र स्थानहरूमा नपठाई सिदोन नगरमा भएकी सारपतकी विधवाकहाँ पठाइयो ।
Elijah was sent to none of them, except to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.
27 अगमवक्‍ता एलीशाको समयमा इस्राएलमा धेरै कुष्‍ठरोगीहरू थिए, तर सिरियाली नामानबाहेक कोही पनि निको पारिएन ।
There were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed, except Naaman, the Syrian.”
28 जब सभाघरमा भएका सबै मानिसहरूले यी सबै कुराहरू सुने, तब उनीहरू रिसले चुर भए ।
They were all filled with wrath in the synagogue as they heard these things.
29 तिनीहरू उठे र उहाँलाई सहरको बाहिरपट्टि ठेल्दै लागे, जुन सहर तिनीहरूले पहाडमा बसालेका थिए, त्यहीँबाट तल उहाँलाई खसाल्ने प्रयत्‍न गरे ।
They rose up, threw him out of the city, and led him to the brow of the hill that their city was built on, that they might throw him off the cliff.
30 तर उहाँ तिनीहरूका बिचबाट निस्केर आफ्नो बाटो लाग्‍नुभयो ।
But he, passing through the middle of them, went his way.
31 त्यसपछि उहाँ गालील सहरको कफर्नहुममा जानुभयो । विश्राम दिनमा उहाँले मानिसहरूलाई सभाघरमा सिकाउँदै हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
He came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. He was teaching them on the Sabbath day,
32 तिनीहरू उहाँको शिक्षामा आश्‍चर्य चकित भए, किनभने उहाँले अधिकारसहित बोल्नुभएको थियो ।
and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with authority.
33 त्यस दिन सभाघरमा एक जना अशुद्ध आत्मा भएको मानिस त्यहाँ थियो, र उसले ठुलो स्वरले चिच्याउँदै भन्यो,
In the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon; and he cried out with a loud voice,
34 “नासरतका येशू, हामीहरूसँग तपाईंको के सरोकार छ? के तपाईं हामीलाई नाश गर्न आउनुभएको हो? तपाईं को हुनुहुन्छ भनी मलाई थाहा छ । तपाईं परमेश्‍वरका पवित्र जन हुनुहुन्छ ।”
saying, “Ah! what have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!”
35 येशूले दुष्‍टात्मालाई हकार्नुभयो र भन्‍नुभयो, “चुप लाग् र त्यसबाट बाहिर निस्किजा ।” त्यसले तिनीहरूका बिचमा उसलाई लडायो र कुनै पनि हानि नोक्सानी नगरीकन उसबाट निस्केर गयो ।
Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent and come out of him!” When the demon had thrown him down in the middle of them, he came out of him, having done him no harm.
36 सबै मानिसहरू अति आश्‍चर्य चकित भए र उनीहरू एक अर्कामा यो विषयमा छलफल गर्न लागे । उनीहरूले भने, “यी वचनहरू कस्ता हुन्? उहाँले अशुद्ध आत्माहरूलाई अधिकार र शक्‍तिसाथ आज्ञा गर्नुहुन्छ र तिनीहरू बाहिर निस्केर जान्छन्?”
Amazement came on all and they spoke together, one with another, saying, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”
37 उहाँको विषयमा भएका समाचारहरू वरिपरिका सबै क्षेत्रहरूमा चारैतिर फैलियो ।
News about him went out into every place of the surrounding region.
38 त्यसपछि येशू सभाघरबाट निस्केर सिमोनको घरमा पस्‍नुभयो । सिमोनकी सासुलाई उच्‍च ज्वरोले सताएको थियो र उनीहरूले उनको पक्षमा उहाँसँग बिन्ती गरे ।
He rose up from the synagogue and entered into Simon’s house. Simon’s mother-in-law was afflicted with a great fever, and they begged him to help her.
39 उहाँ उनको छेउमा उभिनुभयो र ज्वरोलाई हकार्नुभयो र ज्वरोले उनलाई छोड्यो । तुरुन्तै उनी उठिन् र उहाँहरूको सेवा गर्न थालिन् ।
He stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. Immediately she rose up and served them.
40 साँझपख सूर्य अस्ताउने बेलामा धेरै प्रकारका रोग लागेका बिरामीहरूलाई येशूकहाँ ल्याइयो । उहाँले तिनीहरू सबैमाथि आफ्नो हात राख्‍नुभयो र सबैलाई निको पार्नुभयो ।
When the sun was setting, all those who had any sick with various diseases brought them to him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them.
41 तिनीहरूमध्ये धेरैबाट भूत आत्मा चिच्याउँदै बाहिर निस्केर यसो भन्यो, “तपाईं जीवित परमेश्‍वरका पुत्र हुनुहुन्छ ।” येशूले भूत आत्माहरूलाई हकार्नुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई बोल्न दिनुभएन, किनभने उहाँ ख्रीष्‍ट हुनुहुन्थ्यो भनी तिनीहरूलाई थाहा थियो ।
Demons also came out of many, crying out and saying, “You are the Christ, the Son of God!” Rebuking them, he did not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.
42 जब बिहान भयो, उहाँ एकान्त ठाउँमा जानुभयो । ठुलो भिडले उहाँलाई खोजी राखेको थियो र उहाँ जहाँ हुनुहुन्थ्यो, भिड त्यहीँ नै आइपुग्यो र तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई अन्‍त जानबाट रोक्‍ने कोसिस गरे ।
When it was day, he departed and went into an uninhabited place and the multitudes looked for him, and came to him, and held on to him, so that he would not go away from them.
43 तर येशूले भन्‍नुभयो, “मैले अन्य सहरहरूमा पनि राज्यको सुसमाचार प्रचार गर्नुपर्छ, किनभने म यसैको लागि पठाइएको हुँ ।”
But he said to them, “I must preach the good news of God’s Kingdom to the other cities also. For this reason I have been sent.”
44 त्यसपछि यहूदियाका सबै प्रान्तका सभाघरहरूमा उहाँले निरन्तर प्रचार गर्नुभयो ।
He was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
