Mark 11
1 When they came near to Jerusalem, they came to Bethphage and Bethany [villages] near Olive [Tree] Hill. Then Jesus [summoned] two of his disciples.
anantaraṁ teṣu yirūśālamaḥ samīpasthayo rbaitphagībaithanīyapurayorantikasthaṁ jaitunanāmādrimāgateṣu yīśuḥ preṣaṇakāle dvau śiṣyāvidaṁ vākyaṁ jagāda,
2 He said to them, “Go to that village just ahead of you. As soon as you enter it, you will see a donkey that no one has ever ridden, that has been tied {people have tied} up. Untie it, and then bring it [to me].
yuvāmamuṁ sammukhasthaṁ grāmaṁ yātaṁ, tatra praviśya yo naraṁ nāvahat taṁ garddabhaśāvakaṁ drakṣyathastaṁ mocayitvānayataṁ|
3 If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing that?’, say, [‘Jesus], our Lord, needs [to use] it. He will send it back here [with someone] as soon as [he no longer needs it].’”
kintu yuvāṁ karmmedaṁ kutaḥ kuruthaḥ? kathāmimāṁ yadi kopi pṛcchati tarhi prabhoratra prayojanamastīti kathite sa śīghraṁ tamatra preṣayiṣyati|
4 So [the two disciples] went and they found the young donkey. It was tied close to the door [of a house], which was beside the street. Then they untied it.
tatastau gatvā dvimārgamelane kasyacid dvārasya pārśve taṁ garddabhaśāvakaṁ prāpya mocayataḥ,
5 Some of the [people who were there] said to them, “Why are you untying the donkey?”
etarhi tatropasthitalokānāṁ kaścid apṛcchat, garddabhaśiśuṁ kuto mocayathaḥ?
6 They told them what Jesus had said. So the people permitted them [to take the donkey].
tadā yīśorājñānusāreṇa tebhyaḥ pratyudite tatkṣaṇaṁ tamādātuṁ te'nujajñuḥ|
7 They brought the donkey to Jesus. [The disciples] put some of their clothes on it [in order to make something for him to sit on].
atha tau yīśoḥ sannidhiṁ garddabhaśiśum ānīya tadupari svavastrāṇi pātayāmāsatuḥ; tataḥ sa tadupari samupaviṣṭaḥ|
8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road [to honor him as a king]. Others, [in order to honor him], spread along the road branches that they cut from [palm trees] in the fields [beside the road].
tadāneke pathi svavāsāṁsi pātayāmāsuḥ, paraiśca taruśākhāśchitavā mārge vikīrṇāḥ|
9 The people who were going in front of him and behind him were all shouting [things like], “Praise God!” “May God bless this one who comes (with his authority/as his representative) [MTY].”
aparañca paścādgāmino'gragāminaśca sarvve janā ucaiḥsvareṇa vaktumārebhire, jaya jaya yaḥ parameśvarasya nāmnāgacchati sa dhanya iti|
10 “May you be blessed {May [God] bless you} when you rule [like] our ancestor [King] David ruled!” “Praise God who is in the highest heaven!”
tathāsmākamaṁ pūrvvapuruṣasya dāyūdo yadrājyaṁ parameśvaranāmnāyāti tadapi dhanyaṁ, sarvvasmāducchrāye svarge īśvarasya jayo bhavet|
11 He entered Jerusalem [with them], and then he went into the Temple [courtyard]. After he looked around at everything [there], he left [the city] because it was already late [in the afternoon]. He returned to Bethany with the twelve [disciples and slept there].
itthaṁ yīśu ryirūśālami mandiraṁ praviśya caturdiksthāni sarvvāṇi vastūni dṛṣṭavān; atha sāyaṁkāla upasthite dvādaśaśiṣyasahito baithaniyaṁ jagāma|
12 The next day, as Jesus and his disciples were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry.
aparehani baithaniyād āgamanasamaye kṣudhārtto babhūva|
13 He saw from a distance a fig tree with all its leaves, so he went [to it] to see if he could find any [figs] on it. But when he came to it, he found only leaves on it. This was because it was not yet time when [normal fig trees have ripe] figs.
tato dūre sapatramuḍumbarapādapaṁ vilokya tatra kiñcit phalaṁ prāptuṁ tasya sannikṛṣṭaṁ yayau, tadānīṁ phalapātanasya samayo nāgacchati| tatastatropasthitaḥ patrāṇi vinā kimapyaparaṁ na prāpya sa kathitavān,
14 [But to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel, ] he said to the tree, “No one shall ever eat from you again [because you will no longer bear figs].” The disciples heard what he said. (aiōn g165)
adyārabhya kopi mānavastvattaḥ phalaṁ na bhuñjīta; imāṁ kathāṁ tasya śiṣyāḥ śuśruvuḥ| (aiōn g165)
15 Jesus and his disciples went [back] to Jerusalem. He entered the Temple [courtyard. He saw people] who were selling and buying [animals for sacrifices. They were spoiling the place of worship]. He chased those people [from the Temple courtyard.] He also overturned the tables of those who were giving Temple tax money in exchange for Roman coins. He overturned the seats of the men who were selling doves [for sacrifices],
tadanantaraṁ teṣu yirūśālamamāyāteṣu yīśu rmandiraṁ gatvā tatrasthānāṁ baṇijāṁ mudrāsanāni pārāvatavikretṛṇām āsanāni ca nyubjayāñcakāra sarvvān kretṛn vikretṛṁśca bahiścakāra|
16 and he would not allow anyone who was carrying anything [to sell] to go through the Temple [area].
aparaṁ mandiramadhyena kimapi pātraṁ voḍhuṁ sarvvajanaṁ nivārayāmāsa|
17 Then as he taught those people, he said to them, “It is written {[One of the prophets] wrote} [in the Scriptures that God said], ‘[I want] my house to be called {[people] to call my house} a house where [people from] all nations may pray’, but you bandits have made it [like] a cave where you can hide! ([You know that!/Do you not know that]?) [RHQ]”
lokānupadiśan jagāda, mama gṛhaṁ sarvvajātīyānāṁ prārthanāgṛham iti nāmnā prathitaṁ bhaviṣyati etat kiṁ śāstre likhitaṁ nāsti? kintu yūyaṁ tadeva corāṇāṁ gahvaraṁ kurutha|
18 The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws [later] heard [about what he had done]. So they planned how they might kill him, [but they knew that it would be difficult], because they realized that the crowd was amazed at what he was teaching and they feared [that the people would soon decide that Jesus had more authority over the Temple than they did] (OR, [feared what the people would do if they tried to arrest Jesus]).
imāṁ vāṇīṁ śrutvādhyāpakāḥ pradhānayājakāśca taṁ yathā nāśayituṁ śaknuvanti tathopāyaṁ mṛgayāmāsuḥ, kintu tasyopadeśāt sarvve lokā vismayaṁ gatā ataste tasmād bibhyuḥ|
19 That evening, [Jesus and his disciples] left the city [and again slept in Bethany].
atha sāyaṁsamaya upasthite yīśurnagarād bahirvavrāja|
20 [The next] morning, while they were going along [the road toward Jerusalem, they saw that the fig tree that Jesus had cursed] had withered completely.
anantaraṁ prātaḥkāle te tena mārgeṇa gacchantastamuḍumbaramahīruhaṁ samūlaṁ śuṣkaṁ dadṛśuḥ|
21 Peter remembered [what Jesus had said to the fig tree] and he exclaimed to Jesus, “Teacher, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered!”
tataḥ pitaraḥ pūrvvavākyaṁ smaran yīśuṁ babhāṣaṁ, he guro paśyatu ya uḍumbaraviṭapī bhavatā śaptaḥ sa śuṣko babhūva|
22 Jesus replied, “[You should not be surprised that God did what I asked]! You must trust that God [will do whatever you ask him to do]!
tato yīśuḥ pratyavādīt, yūyamīśvare viśvasita|
23 [Also] note this: If anyone says to this hill, ‘Be raised up {Rise up} and then be thrown {throw yourself} into the lake!’ and if he does not doubt [that what he asks for will happen], that is, if he believes that what he asks for will happen, [God] will do it for him.
yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthaṁ vadāmi kopi yadyetadgiriṁ vadati, tvamutthāya gatvā jaladhau pata, proktamidaṁ vākyamavaśyaṁ ghaṭiṣyate, manasā kimapi na sandihya cedidaṁ viśvaset tarhi tasya vākyānusāreṇa tad ghaṭiṣyate|
24 So I tell you, whenever you ask [God] for something when you pray, believe that you will receive it, and, [if you do, God] will do it [for you].
ato hetorahaṁ yuṣmān vacmi, prārthanākāle yadyadākāṁkṣiṣyadhve tattadavaśyaṁ prāpsyatha, itthaṁ viśvasita, tataḥ prāpsyatha|
25 Now, I [tell you this also]: Whenever you are praying, if you have a grudge against people [because they have harmed you], forgive them, in order that your Father in heaven will [likewise] forgive your sins.”
aparañca yuṣmāsu prārthayituṁ samutthiteṣu yadi kopi yuṣmākam aparādhī tiṣṭhati, tarhi taṁ kṣamadhvaṁ, tathā kṛte yuṣmākaṁ svargasthaḥ pitāpi yuṣmākamāgāṁmi kṣamiṣyate|
kintu yadi na kṣamadhve tarhi vaḥ svargasthaḥ pitāpi yuṣmākamāgāṁsi na kṣamiṣyate|
27 Jesus and his disciples arrived in the Temple [courtyard] in Jerusalem again. While Jesus was walking [there, a group consisting of] chief priests, [some] men who taught the [Jewish] laws, and elders came to him and they said to him,
anantaraṁ te puna ryirūśālamaṁ praviviśuḥ, yīśu ryadā madhyemandiram itastato gacchati, tadānīṁ pradhānayājakā upādhyāyāḥ prāñcaśca tadantikametya kathāmimāṁ papracchuḥ,
28 “By what authority are you doing these things? Who authorized you to do things [like those you did here yesterday]?”
tvaṁ kenādeśena karmmāṇyetāni karoṣi? tathaitāni karmmāṇi karttāṁ kenādiṣṭosi?
29 Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. If you answer me, I will tell you who authorized me to do those things.
tato yīśuḥ pratigaditavān ahamapi yuṣmān ekakathāṁ pṛcchāmi, yadi yūyaṁ tasyā uttaraṁ kurutha, tarhi kayājñayāhaṁ karmmāṇyetāni karomi tad yuṣmabhyaṁ kathayiṣyāmi|
30 Did God [MTY] or people [authorize] John to baptize [those who came to him]?”
yohano majjanam īśvarāt jātaṁ kiṁ mānavāt? tanmahyaṁ kathayata|
31 They debated among themselves [as to what they should answer]. They [said to each other], “If we say that it was God [who authorized] him, he will say to us, ‘Therefore, (you should have believed what John said!/why did you not believe what John said?) [RHQ]’
te parasparaṁ vivektuṁ prārebhire, tad īśvarād babhūveti ced vadāmastarhi kutastaṁ na pratyaita? kathametāṁ kathayiṣyati|
32 On the other hand, if we say that it was people [who authorized John, then what will happen to us]?” They were afraid [to say that about where John got his authority, because they knew that] the people [would be very angry with them. They knew that] all the people truly believed that John was a prophet [whom God had sent].
mānavād abhavaditi ced vadāmastarhi lokebhyo bhayamasti yato hetoḥ sarvve yohanaṁ satyaṁ bhaviṣyadvādinaṁ manyante|
33 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know [where John got his authority].” Then Jesus said to them, “[Because you did not answer my question, I] will not tell you who authorized me to do those things [here yesterday].”
ataeva te yīśuṁ pratyavādiṣu rvayaṁ tad vaktuṁ na śaknumaḥ| yīśuruvāca, tarhi yenādeśena karmmāṇyetāni karomi, ahamapi yuṣmabhyaṁ tanna kathayiṣyāmi|
