Luke 10
1 After this, the Master appointed seventy-two other disciples, and sent them on as his messengers, two and two, in advance, to every town and place that he was himself intending to visit.
tataḥ paraṁ prabhuraparān saptatiśiṣyān niyujya svayaṁ yāni nagarāṇi yāni sthānāni ca gamiṣyati tāni nagarāṇi tāni sthānāni ca prati dvau dvau janau prahitavān|
2 “The harvest,” he said, “is abundant, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray to the owner of the harvest to send laborers to gather in his harvest.
tēbhyaḥ kathayāmāsa ca śasyāni bahūnīti satyaṁ kintu chēdakā alpē; tasmāddhētōḥ śasyakṣētrē chēdakān aparānapi prēṣayituṁ kṣētrasvāminaṁ prārthayadhvaṁ|
3 Now, go. Remember, I am sending you out as my messengers like lambs among wolves.
yūyaṁ yāta, paśyata, vr̥kāṇāṁ madhyē mēṣaśāvakāniva yuṣmān prahiṇōmi|
4 Do not take a purse with you, or a bag, or sandals; and do not stop to greet anyone on your journey.
yūyaṁ kṣudraṁ mahad vā vasanasampuṭakaṁ pādukāśca mā gr̥hlīta, mārgamadhyē kamapi mā namata ca|
5 Whatever house you go to stay at, begin by praying for a blessing on it.
aparañca yūyaṁ yad yat nivēśanaṁ praviśatha tatra nivēśanasyāsya maṅgalaṁ bhūyāditi vākyaṁ prathamaṁ vadata|
6 Then, if anyone there is deserving of a blessing, your blessing will rest on him; but if not, it will come back on yourselves.
tasmāt tasmin nivēśanē yadi maṅgalapātraṁ sthāsyati tarhi tanmaṅgalaṁ tasya bhaviṣyati, nōcēt yuṣmān prati parāvarttiṣyatē|
7 Remain at that same house, and eat and drink whatever they offer you; for the worker is worth their wages. Do not keep changing from one house to another.
aparañca tē yatkiñcid dāsyanti tadēva bhuktvā pītvā tasminnivēśanē sthāsyatha; yataḥ karmmakārī janō bhr̥tim arhati; gr̥hād gr̥haṁ mā yāsyatha|
8 Whatever town you visit, if the people welcome you, eat what is set before you;
anyacca yuṣmāsu kimapi nagaraṁ praviṣṭēṣu lōkā yadi yuṣmākam ātithyaṁ kariṣyanti, tarhi yat khādyam upasthāsyanti tadēva khādiṣyatha|
9 cure the sick there, and tell people that the kingdom of God is close at hand.
tannagarasthān rōgiṇaḥ svasthān kariṣyatha, īśvarīyaṁ rājyaṁ yuṣmākam antikam āgamat kathāmētāñca pracārayiṣyatha|
10 But, whatever town you go to visit, if the people do not welcome you, go out into its streets and say
kintu kimapi puraṁ yuṣmāsu praviṣṭēṣu lōkā yadi yuṣmākam ātithyaṁ na kariṣyanti, tarhi tasya nagarasya panthānaṁ gatvā kathāmētāṁ vadiṣyatha,
11 ‘We wipe off the dust of your town which has clung to Our feet; still, be assured that the kingdom of God is close at Hand.’
yuṣmākaṁ nagarīyā yā dhūlyō'smāsu samalagan tā api yuṣmākaṁ prātikūlyēna sākṣyārthaṁ sampātayāmaḥ; tathāpīśvararājyaṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpam āgatam iti niścitaṁ jānīta|
12 I tell you that the doom of Sodom will be more bearable on that day than the doom of that town.
ahaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ yathārthaṁ kathayāmi, vicāradinē tasya nagarasya daśātaḥ sidōmō daśā sahyā bhaviṣyati|
13 Alas for you, Chorazin! Alas for you, Bethsaida! For, if the miracles which have been done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have sat in sackcloth and ashes and repented long ago.
hā hā kōrāsīn nagara, hā hā baitsaidānagara yuvayōrmadhyē yādr̥śāni āścaryyāṇi karmmāṇyakriyanta, tāni karmmāṇi yadi sōrasīdōnō rnagarayōrakāriṣyanta, tadā itō bahudinapūrvvaṁ tannivāsinaḥ śaṇavastrāṇi paridhāya gātrēṣu bhasma vilipya samupaviśya samakhētsyanta|
14 Yet the doom of Tyre and Sidon will be more bearable at the judgment than yours.
atō vicāradivasē yuṣmākaṁ daśātaḥ sōrasīdōnnivāsināṁ daśā sahyā bhaviṣyati|
15 And you, Capernaum! Will you exalt yourself to heaven? You will be flung down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
hē kapharnāhūm, tvaṁ svargaṁ yāvad unnatā kintu narakaṁ yāvat nyagbhaviṣyasi| (Hadēs g86)
16 Anyone who listens to you is listening to me, and anyone who rejects you is rejecting me; while the person who rejects me is rejecting him who sent me as his messenger.”
yō janō yuṣmākaṁ vākyaṁ gr̥hlāti sa mamaiva vākyaṁ gr̥hlāti; kiñca yō janō yuṣmākam avajñāṁ karōti sa mamaivāvajñāṁ karōti; yō janō mamāvajñāṁ karōti ca sa matprērakasyaivāvajñāṁ karōti|
17 When the seventy-two returned, they exclaimed joyfully, “Master, even the demons submit to us when we use your name.”
atha tē saptatiśiṣyā ānandēna pratyāgatya kathayāmāsuḥ, hē prabhō bhavatō nāmnā bhūtā apyasmākaṁ vaśībhavanti|
18 And Jesus replied, “I have had visions of Satan, fallen, like lightning from the heavens.
tadānīṁ sa tān jagāda, vidyutamiva svargāt patantaṁ śaitānam adarśam|
19 Remember, I have given you the power to trample on snakes and scorpions, and to meet all the strength of the Enemy. Nothing will ever harm you in any way.
paśyata sarpān vr̥ścikān ripōḥ sarvvaparākramāṁśca padatalai rdalayituṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ śaktiṁ dadāmi tasmād yuṣmākaṁ kāpi hāni rna bhaviṣyati|
20 Yet do not rejoice in the fact that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names have been enrolled in heaven.”
bhūtā yuṣmākaṁ vaśībhavanti, ētannimittat mā samullasata, svargē yuṣmākaṁ nāmāni likhitāni santīti nimittaṁ samullasata|
21 At that same time, moved to exultation by the Holy Spirit, Jesus said: “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, you have revealed them to the childlike! Yes, Father, I thank you that this has seemed good to you.
tadghaṭikāyāṁ yīśu rmanasi jātāhlādaḥ kathayāmāsa hē svargapr̥thivyōrēkādhipatē pitastvaṁ jñānavatāṁ viduṣāñca lōkānāṁ purastāt sarvvamētad aprakāśya bālakānāṁ purastāt prākāśaya ētasmāddhētōstvāṁ dhanyaṁ vadāmi, hē pitaritthaṁ bhavatu yad ētadēva tava gōcara uttamam|
22 Everything has been committed to me by my Father; nor does anyone know who the Son is, except the Father, or who the Father is, except the Son and those to whom the Son may choose to reveal him.”
pitrā sarvvāṇi mayi samarpitāni pitaraṁ vinā kōpi putraṁ na jānāti kiñca putraṁ vinā yasmai janāya putrastaṁ prakāśitavān tañca vinā kōpi pitaraṁ na jānāti|
23 Then, turning to his disciples, Jesus said to them alone, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you are seeing;
tapaḥ paraṁ sa śiṣyān prati parāvr̥tya guptaṁ jagāda, yūyamētāni sarvvāṇi paśyatha tatō yuṣmākaṁ cakṣūṁṣi dhanyāni|
24 for, I tell you, many prophets and kings wished for the sight of the things which you are seeing, yet never heard them.”
yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi, yūyaṁ yāni sarvvāṇi paśyatha tāni bahavō bhaviṣyadvādinō bhūpatayaśca draṣṭumicchantōpi draṣṭuṁ na prāpnuvan, yuṣmābhi ryā yāḥ kathāśca śrūyantē tāḥ śrōtumicchantōpi śrōtuṁ nālabhanta|
25 Just then a student of the Law came forward to test Jesus further. “Teacher,” he said, “what must I do if I am to gain eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
anantaram ēkō vyavasthāpaka utthāya taṁ parīkṣituṁ papraccha, hē upadēśaka anantāyuṣaḥ prāptayē mayā kiṁ karaṇīyaṁ? (aiōnios g166)
26 “What is said in the Law?” answered Jesus. “What do you read there?”
yīśuḥ pratyuvāca, atrārthē vyavasthāyāṁ kiṁ likhitamasti? tvaṁ kīdr̥k paṭhasi?
27 His reply was – “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as you love yourself.”
tataḥ sōvadat, tvaṁ sarvvāntaḥkaraṇaiḥ sarvvaprāṇaiḥ sarvvaśaktibhiḥ sarvvacittaiśca prabhau paramēśvarē prēma kuru, samīpavāsini svavat prēma kuru ca|
28 “You have answered right,” said Jesus, “Do that, and you will live.”
tadā sa kathayāmāsa, tvaṁ yathārthaṁ pratyavōcaḥ, ittham ācara tēnaiva jīviṣyasi|
29 But the man, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
kintu sa janaḥ svaṁ nirddōṣaṁ jñāpayituṁ yīśuṁ papraccha, mama samīpavāsī kaḥ? tatō yīśuḥ pratyuvāca,
30 To which Jesus replied, “A man was once going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him of everything, and beat him, and went away leaving him half dead.
ēkō janō yirūśālampurād yirīhōpuraṁ yāti, ētarhi dasyūnāṁ karēṣu patitē tē tasya vastrādikaṁ hr̥tavantaḥ tamāhatya mr̥taprāyaṁ kr̥tvā tyaktvā yayuḥ|
31 As it chanced, a priest was going down by that road. He saw the man, but passed by on the opposite side.
akasmād ēkō yājakastēna mārgēṇa gacchan taṁ dr̥ṣṭvā mārgānyapārśvēna jagāma|
32 A Levite, too, did the same; he came up to the spot, but, when he saw the man, passed by on the opposite side.
ittham ēkō lēvīyastatsthānaṁ prāpya tasyāntikaṁ gatvā taṁ vilōkyānyēna pārśvēna jagāma|
33 But a Samaritan, traveling that way, came upon the man, and, when he saw him, he was moved with compassion.
kintvēkaḥ śōmirōṇīyō gacchan tatsthānaṁ prāpya taṁ dr̥ṣṭvādayata|
34 He went to him and bound up his wounds, dressing them with oil and wine, and then put him on his own mule, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
tasyāntikaṁ gatvā tasya kṣatēṣu tailaṁ drākṣārasañca prakṣipya kṣatāni baddhvā nijavāhanōpari tamupavēśya pravāsīyagr̥ham ānīya taṁ siṣēvē|
35 The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Take care of him,’ he said, ‘and whatever more you may spend I will myself repay you on my way back.’
parasmin divasē nijagamanakālē dvau mudrāpādau tadgr̥hasvāminē dattvāvadat janamēnaṁ sēvasva tatra yō'dhikō vyayō bhaviṣyati tamahaṁ punarāgamanakālē pariśōtsyāmi|
36 Now which, do you think, of these three men,” asked Jesus, “proved himself a neighbor to the man who fell into the robbers’ hands?”
ēṣāṁ trayāṇāṁ madhyē tasya dasyuhastapatitasya janasya samīpavāsī kaḥ? tvayā kiṁ budhyatē?
37 “The one that took pity on him,” was the answer; at which Jesus said, “Go and do the same yourself.”
tataḥ sa vyavasthāpakaḥ kathayāmāsa yastasmin dayāṁ cakāra| tadā yīśuḥ kathayāmāsa tvamapi gatvā tathācara|
38 As they continued their journey, Jesus came to a village, where a woman named Martha welcomed him to her house.
tataḥ paraṁ tē gacchanta ēkaṁ grāmaṁ praviviśuḥ; tadā marthānāmā strī svagr̥hē tasyātithyaṁ cakāra|
39 She had a sister called Mary, who seated herself at the Master’s feet, and listened to his teaching;
tasmāt mariyam nāmadhēyā tasyā bhaginī yīśōḥ padasamīpa uvaviśya tasyōpadēśakathāṁ śrōtumārēbhē|
40 but Martha was distracted by the many preparations that she was making. So she went up to Jesus and said, “Master, do you approve of my sister’s leaving me to make preparations alone? Tell her to help me.”
kintu marthā nānāparicaryyāyāṁ vyagrā babhūva tasmāddhētōstasya samīpamāgatya babhāṣē; hē prabhō mama bhaginī kēvalaṁ mamōpari sarvvakarmmaṇāṁ bhāram arpitavatī tatra bhavatā kiñcidapi na manō nidhīyatē kim? mama sāhāyyaṁ karttuṁ bhavān tāmādiśatu|
41 “Martha, Martha,” replied the Master, “you are anxious and trouble yourself about many things;
tatō yīśuḥ pratyuvāca hē marthē hē marthē, tvaṁ nānākāryyēṣu cintitavatī vyagrā cāsi,
42 but only a few are necessary, or rather one. Mary has chosen the good part, and it will not be taken away from her.”
kintu prayōjanīyam ēkamātram āstē| aparañca yamuttamaṁ bhāgaṁ kōpi harttuṁ na śaknōti saēva mariyamā vr̥taḥ|
