Matthew 16
1 Here the Pharisees and Sadducees came up, and, to test Jesus, requested him to show them some sign from the heavens.
tadānīṁ phirūśinaḥ sidūkinaścāgatya taṁ parīkṣituṁ nabhamīyaṁ kiñcana lakṣma darśayituṁ tasmai nivedayāmāsuḥ|
2 But Jesus answered, ‘In the evening you say “It will be fine weather, for the sky is as red as fire.”
tataḥ sa uktavān, sandhyāyāṁ nabhaso raktatvād yūyaṁ vadatha, śvo nirmmalaṁ dinaṁ bhaviṣyati;
3 But in the morning you say “Today it will be stormy, for the sky is as red as fire and threatening.” You learn to read the sky; yet you are unable to read the signs of the times!
prātaḥkāle ca nabhaso raktatvāt malinatvāñca vadatha, jhañbhśadya bhaviṣyati| he kapaṭino yadi yūyam antarīkṣasya lakṣma boddhuṁ śaknutha, tarhi kālasyaitasya lakṣma kathaṁ boddhuṁ na śaknutha?
4 A wicked and unfaithful generation is asking for a sign, but no sign will be given it except the sign of Jonah.’ So he left them and went away.
etatkālasya duṣṭo vyabhicārī ca vaṁśo lakṣma gaveṣayati, kintu yūnaso bhaviṣyadvādino lakṣma vinānyat kimapi lakṣma tān na darśayiyyate| tadānīṁ sa tān vihāya pratasthe|
5 Now the disciples had crossed to the opposite shore, and had forgotten to take any bread.
anantaramanyapāragamanakāle tasya śiṣyāḥ pūpamānetuṁ vismṛtavantaḥ|
6 Presently Jesus said to them, ‘Take care and be on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.’
yīśustānavādīt, yūyaṁ phirūśināṁ sidūkināñca kiṇvaṁ prati sāvadhānāḥ satarkāśca bhavata|
7 But the disciples began talking among themselves about their having brought no bread.
tena te parasparaṁ vivicya kathayitumārebhire, vayaṁ pūpānānetuṁ vismṛtavanta etatkāraṇād iti kathayati|
8 On noticing this, Jesus said, ‘Why are you talking among yourselves about your being short of bread, you of little faith?
kintu yīśustadvijñāya tānavocat, he stokaviśvāsino yūyaṁ pūpānānayanamadhi kutaḥ parasparametad viviṁkya?
9 Don’t you yet see, nor remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took away?
yuṣmābhiḥ kimadyāpi na jñāyate? pañcabhiḥ pūpaiḥ pañcasahasrapuruṣeṣu bhojiteṣu bhakṣyocchiṣṭapūrṇān kati ḍalakān samagṛhlītaṁ;
10 Nor yet the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you took away?
tathā saptabhiḥ pūpaiścatuḥsahasrapuruṣeṣu bhejiteṣu kati ḍalakān samagṛhlīta, tat kiṁ yuṣmābhirna smaryyate?
11 How is it that you do not see that I was not speaking about bread? Be on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.’
tasmāt phirūśināṁ sidūkināñca kiṇvaṁ prati sāvadhānāstiṣṭhata, kathāmimām ahaṁ pūpānadhi nākathayaṁ, etad yūyaṁ kuto na budhyadhve?
12 Then they understood that he had told them to be on their guard, not against the leaven of bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
tadānīṁ pūpakiṇvaṁ prati sāvadhānāstiṣṭhateti noktvā phirūśināṁ sidūkināñca upadeśaṁ prati sāvadhānāstiṣṭhateti kathitavān, iti tairabodhi|
13 On coming into the region of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked his disciples this question – ‘Who do people say that the Son of Man is?’
aparañca yīśuḥ kaisariyā-philipipradeśamāgatya śiṣyān apṛcchat, yo'haṁ manujasutaḥ so'haṁ kaḥ? lokairahaṁ kimucye?
14 ‘Some say John the Baptist,’ they answered, ‘Others, however, say that he is Elijah, while others again say Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.’
tadānīṁ te kathitavantaḥ, kecid vadanti tvaṁ majjayitā yohan, kecidvadanti, tvam eliyaḥ, kecicca vadanti, tvaṁ yirimiyo vā kaścid bhaviṣyadvādīti|
15 ‘But you,’ he said, ‘who do you say that I am?’
paścāt sa tān papraccha, yūyaṁ māṁ kaṁ vadatha? tataḥ śimon pitara uvāca,
16 To this Simon Peter answered, ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.’
tvamamareśvarasyābhiṣiktaputraḥ|
17 ‘Blessed are you, Simon, Son of Jonah,’ Jesus replied. ‘For no human being has revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
tato yīśuḥ kathitavān, he yūnasaḥ putra śimon tvaṁ dhanyaḥ; yataḥ kopi anujastvayyetajjñānaṁ nodapādayat, kintu mama svargasyaḥ pitodapādayat|
18 Yes, and I say to you, your name is “Peter” – a Rock, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail over it. (Hadēs g86)
ato'haṁ tvāṁ vadāmi, tvaṁ pitaraḥ (prastaraḥ) ahañca tasya prastarasyopari svamaṇḍalīṁ nirmmāsyāmi, tena nirayo balāt tāṁ parājetuṁ na śakṣyati| (Hadēs g86)
19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be held in heaven to be forbidden, and whatever you allow on earth will be held in heaven to be allowed.’
ahaṁ tubhyaṁ svargīyarājyasya kuñjikāṁ dāsyāmi, tena yat kiñcana tvaṁ pṛthivyāṁ bhaṁtsyasi tatsvarge bhaṁtsyate, yacca kiñcana mahyāṁ mokṣyasi tat svarge mokṣyate|
20 Then he charged his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ.
paścāt sa śiṣyānādiśat, ahamabhiṣikto yīśuriti kathāṁ kasmaicidapi yūyaṁ mā kathayata|
21 At that time Jesus Christ began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem, and undergo much suffering at the hands of the elders, and chief priests, and teachers of the Law, and be put to death, and rise on the third day.
anyañca yirūśālamnagaraṁ gatvā prācīnalokebhyaḥ pradhānayājakebhya upādhyāyebhyaśca bahuduḥkhabhogastai rhatatvaṁ tṛtīyadine punarutthānañca mamāvaśyakam etāḥ kathā yīśustatkālamārabhya śiṣyān jñāpayitum ārabdhavān|
22 But Peter took Jesus aside, and began to rebuke him. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘please God that will never be your fate!’
tadānīṁ pitarastasya karaṁ ghṛtvā tarjayitvā kathayitumārabdhavān, he prabho, tat tvatto dūraṁ yātu, tvāṁ prati kadāpi na ghaṭiṣyate|
23 Jesus, however, turning to Peter, said, ‘Out of my way, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you look at things, not as God does, but as person does.’
kintu sa vadanaṁ parāvartya pitaraṁ jagāda, he vighnakārin, matsammukhād dūrībhava, tvaṁ māṁ bādhase, īśvarīyakāryyāt mānuṣīyakāryyaṁ tubhyaṁ rocate|
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, ‘If anyone wishes to walk in my steps, they must renounce self, and take up their cross, and follow me.
anantaraṁ yīśuḥ svīyaśiṣyān uktavān yaḥ kaścit mama paścādgāmī bhavitum icchati, sa svaṁ dāmyatu, tathā svakruśaṁ gṛhlan matpaścādāyātu|
25 For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, and whoever, for my sake, loses his life will find it.
yato yaḥ prāṇān rakṣitumicchati, sa tān hārayiṣyati, kintu yo madarthaṁ nijaprāṇān hārayati, sa tān prāpsyati|
26 What good will it do a person to gain the whole world, if he forfeits his life? Or what will a person give that is of equal value with his life?
mānuṣo yadi sarvvaṁ jagat labhate nijapraṇān hārayati, tarhi tasya ko lābhaḥ? manujo nijaprāṇānāṁ vinimayena vā kiṁ dātuṁ śaknoti?
27 For the Son of Man is to come in his Father’s glory, with his angels, and then he will give to everyone what his actions deserve.
manujasutaḥ svadūtaiḥ sākaṁ pituḥ prabhāveṇāgamiṣyati; tadā pratimanujaṁ svasvakarmmānusārāt phalaṁ dāsyati|
28 I tell you, some of those who are standing here will not know death until they have seen the Son of Man coming into his kingdom.’
ahaṁ yuṣmān tathyaṁ vacmi, sarājyaṁ manujasutam āgataṁ na paśyanto mṛtyuṁ na svādiṣyanti, etādṛśāḥ katipayajanā atrāpi daṇḍāyamānāḥ santi|
