लुका 12
1 त्यसै बेला, जब हजारौँ मानिस एकै ठाउँमा जम्मा भएका थिए । उनीहरूको सङ्ख्या अत्यधिक भएको कारण एउटाले अर्कोलाई कुल्चिरहेका थियो । उहाँले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई यसो भन्न सुरु गर्नुभयो, “फरिसीहरूको खमिरबाट सावधान रहो, जुनचाहिँ पाखण्डीपना हो ।
Meanwhile, when a multitude of many thousands had gathered together, so much so that they trampled on each other, he began to tell his disciples first of all, “Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees [Separated], which is hypocrisy.
2 तर कुनै पनि कुराहरू यसरी गुप्त छैनन् जुन प्रकट हुनै सक्दैनन् र कुनै पनि कुराहरू लुकेका छैनन् जुन कुरा थाहा नहोस् ।
But there is nothing covered up, that will not be revealed, nor hidden, that will not be known.
3 यसकारण, तिमीले जे कुराहरू अन्धकारमा भनेका छौ, त्यो ज्योतिमा सुनिनेछ र जे कुरा तिमीले भित्री कोठामा कानमा भनेका छौ, त्यो घरको धुरीबाट घोषणा गरिनेछ ।
Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light. What you have spoken in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.
4 मेरा मित्रहरू, म तिमीलाई भन्दछु कि शरीरलाई मार्नेहरूसँग नडराओ किनकि त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले केही गर्न सक्दैनन् ।
“I tell you, my friends, don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5 तर म तिमीहरूलाई कोसँग डराउने भनी चेताउनी दिन्छु । त्यो व्यक्तिसँग डराओ जससित मारेपछि नरकमा फालिदिने अधिकार छ । हो, म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, उहाँसँग डराओ । (Geenna g1067)
But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him, who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna (Place of fiery torment for the dead). Yes, I tell you, fear him. (Geenna g1067)
6 के पाँचवटा भङ्गेरा दुई सिक्कामा बेचिँदैनन् र? परमेश्वरको दृष्टिबाट एउटा पनि बिर्सेको हुँदैन ।
“Are not five sparrows sold for two assaria coins (a trivial cost)? Not one of them is forgotten by God.
7 तर उहाँले तिम्रा कपालका सबै रौँको पनि गणना गर्नुभएको छ । उहाँसित नडराओ, किनकि तिमीहरू धेरै भङ्गेराहरूभन्दा पनि मूल्यवान् छौ ।
But the very hairs of your head are all counted. Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
8 म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, कि हरेक जसले मानिसहरूका अगि मलाई स्वीकार गर्दछ, परमप्रभुका दूतहरूका अगि मानिसका पुत्रले पनि उसलाई स्वीकार गर्नेछन् ।
“I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, him will the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God;
9 तर जसले मलाई मानिसहरूका सामु इन्कार गर्दछ, परमप्रभु परमेश्वरका दूतहरूले उसलाई पनि इन्कार गर्नेछन् ।
but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of the angels of God.
10 हरेक जसले परमेश्वरका पुत्रको विरुद्धमा बोल्दछ, उसलाई क्षमा गरिनेछ, तर जसले पवित्र आत्माको विरुद्धमा निन्दा गर्दछ, उसलाई क्षमा गरिनेछैन ।
Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against Ruach haKodesh [Spirit of the Holiness] will not be forgiven.
11 जब तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई सभाघरको शासक र अधिकारीहरूको अगि ल्याउनेछन, कसरी प्रतिकार गर्ने र के बोल्ने भन्ने विषयमा चिन्तित नहोओ ।
When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, don’t be anxious how or what you will answer, or what you will say;
12 पवित्र आत्माले तिमीहरूलाई त्यही घडी के भन्नुपर्ने हो भनी सिकाउनुहुनेछ ।
for Ruach haKodesh [Spirit of the Holiness] will teach you in that same hour what you must say.”
13 त्यसपछि भिडबाट एक जनाले उहाँलाई यसो भन्यो, “गुरुज्यू, मेरो भाइलाई सम्पत्तिको भागबन्डा गरिदिनुहोस् भनी बताइदिनुहोस् ।”
One of the multitude said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14 येशूले त्यसलाई भन्नुभयो, “हे मानिस, कसले मलाई तिमीहरूमाथि न्यायधीश र मध्यस्तकर्ता बनायो?”
But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”
15 र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “हेर आफैँलाई लोभी इच्छाहरूबाट अलग राख, किनभने कसैको पनि जीवन उसको प्रशस्त धन सम्पत्तिको कारणले गर्दा जीवन प्रशस्ततामा रहन सक्दैन ।”
He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life does not consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”
16 तब येशूले तिनीहरूलाई एउटा दृष्टान्त भन्नुभयो, “धनी मानिसको भूमिले प्रशस्त उब्जनी दियो,
He spoke a parable to them, saying, “The ground of a certain rich man produced abundantly.
17 र उसले मनमनै भन्न लाग्यो, ‘म के गरूँ, किनकि मसँग अन्नको भण्डारण गर्ने प्रशस्त ठाउँ छैन?‘
He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’
18 उसले भन्यो, ‘म भकारीहरूलाई भत्काउनेछु र ठुलो बनाउनेछु । त्यहीँ नै सबै अन्नहरू र अन्य सामग्री भण्डारण गर्नेछु ।’
He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
19 म मेरो प्राणलाई भन्नेछु, ‘हे प्राण, तेरो लागि प्रशस्तै असल चिजहरू धेरै वर्षको लागि भण्डारण गरिएको छ । आराम गर, खा, पी र आनन्दित हो ।’
I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, be merry.”’
20 तर परमेश्वरले त्यसलाई भन्नुभयो, ‘मूर्ख मानिस, आजको रात नै तेरो प्राण फिर्ता लिइयो भने, तैँले तयार गरेको ती सब चिजहरू कसको हुनेछ?’
“But God said to him, ‘You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared— whose will they be?’
21 यसरी नै कसैले आफ्नो धन सम्पत्तिको संचय गरेर आफ्नै लागि राख्दछन् र यो परमेश्वरकहाँ पुग्दैन ।”
So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”
22 येशूले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “यसकारण म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, आफ्नो जीवनको विषयमा के खाऔँला वा के पहिरौँला भनी चिन्ता नगर ।
He said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear.
23 जीवन खानेकुरा भन्दा र शरीर लगाउने कुराभन्दा अझ बढी उत्तम छ ।
Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
24 कागहरूलाई विचार गर, तिनीहरूले न त छर्छन् न त बटुल्दछन् । उनीहरूका भण्डारणहरू छैनन् अथवा भकारी पनि छैन, तर परमेश्वरले उनीहरूलाई खुवाउनुहुन्छ । तिमी चराहरूभन्दा धेरै मूल्यवान् छौ ।
Consider the ravens: they don’t sow, they don’t reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds!
25 र के तिमीहरूमध्ये कसैले चिन्ता गरेर आफ्नो जीवनको आयुमा एकपल पनि थप्न सक्छौ र?
Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit [18 in; 45.72 cm] to his height?
26 तिमीहरू सबैभन्दा सानो काम गर्न योग्यका छैनौ भने बाँकी कुराहरूको लागि किन चिन्तित हुन्छौ?
If then you are not able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest?
27 मैदानका लिली फुलहरूलाई विचार गर, तिनीहरू कसरी बढ्छन्? न त तिनीहरूले परिश्रम गर्छन्, न त मेहनत नै गर्छन, म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, सोलोमन पनि आफ्ना सबै महिमामा यिनीहरूझैँ आभूषित थिएनन् ।
Consider the lilies, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon [Peaceable, Recompense] in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 यदि परमेश्वरले जमिनका घाँसलाई सुशोभित पार्नुहुन्छ जुन आज अस्तित्वमा छ, तर भोली आगोमा फालिनेछ भने, हे अल्प विश्वासी हो, त्यो भन्दाबढी तिमीहरूलाई कति धेरै सशोभित गर्नुहुनेछ ।
But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little trusting faith?
29 के खाऔँला र के पिऔँला भनी नभौतारिओ र चिन्ता नगर ।
Don’t seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious.
30 संसार भरका सबै राष्ट्रहरूले यही कुराको खोजी गर्दछन् र तिम्रा पिताले तिम्रा सबै आवश्यकताहरू जान्नुहुन्छ ।
For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but 'Avikah ·your Father· knows that you need these things.
31 तर उहाँको राज्यको खोजी गर, र यी सबै थोकहरू तिमीलाई थपिनेछन् ।
But seek God’s Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you.
32 सानो बगाल हो, नडराओ, किनकि तिम्रा पिताले तिमीलाई राज्य दिन अति खुसी हुनुहुन्छ ।
Don’t be afraid, little flock, for it is 'Avikah ·your Father·’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.
33 आफ्ना धन सम्पत्ति बेच र गरिबहरूलाई देओ । तिनलाई नखिइने थैलीभित्री राख; स्वर्गमा धन संचय गर, जहाँ चोरले चोर्न सक्दैन, र किराले हानि पुर्याउँदैन, न त खिया नै लाग्दछ ।
Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don’t grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys.
34 जहाँ तिम्रो धन छ, त्यहीँ नै तिम्रो मन पनि हुनेछ ।
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 तिम्रो लामो पोसाक कम्मरको पेटीसम्म होस् र तिम्रा बत्तीहरू बलिरहून् ।
“Let your waist be dressed and your lamps burning.
36 आफ्नो मालिक विवाहको भोजबाट फर्केर आउने प्रतीक्षामा रहेका मानिसहरूझैँ होओ । जब मालिक आउँछ र ढोका ढकढकाउँदछ, तिनीहरूले तुरुन्तै ढोका खोल्नेछन् ।
Be like men watching for their lord, when he teshuvah ·completely returns· from the marriage feast; that, when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him.
37 धन्य हुन् ती सेवकहरू, जो आफ्नो मालिक फर्केर आउँदा उसले जागा रहेको भेट्टाउनेछ । म तिमीहरूलाई साँचो भन्दछु, कि उसले आफ्नो लामो वस्त्रलाई पेटीले कसेर भित्री भागमा सुरक्षित राखी खानामा बसाल्दछ र आएर उनीहरूको सेवा गर्नेछ ।
Blessed are those servants, whom the lord will find watching when he comes. Most certainly I tell you, that he will dress himself, and make them recline, and will come and serve them.
38 यदि मालिक दोस्रो पटक रातको समय आयो भने पनि वा तेस्रो चोटि हेर्न आयो भने पनि तिनीहरू जागा भेट्टाइए भने, तिनीहरू धन्यका हुन् ।
They will be blessed if he comes in the second or third watch, and finds them so.
39 तर पनि यो जानी राख, कि यदि घरको मालिकलाई चोर कुन बेला आउँछ भन्ने थाहा भएको भए उसले आफ्नो घर फोर्नबाट बचाउने थियो ।
But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not allowed his house to be broken into.
40 जागा रहो, किनभने तिमीहरूलाई मानिसका पुत्र कुन घडीमा आउँछ भन्ने कुरा थाहा छैन ।”
Therefore be ready also, for the Son of Man is coming in an hour that you don’t expect him.”
41 पत्रुसले भने, “प्रभु, के तपाईंले यो दृष्टान्त हामीलाई मात्रै भन्नुभएको हो, कि सबैलाई?”
Peter [Rock] said to him, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everybody?”
42 प्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “विश्वासयोग्य र बुद्धिमान् व्यवस्थापकलाई मालिकले आफूमुनिका सेवकहरूलाई उनीहरूको भागको खाना ठिक समयमा खाना दिन्छन् ।
The Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times?
43 धन्य हो त्यो सेवक, जसले आफ्नो मालिक फर्कंदा यी कार्यहरू गरिरहेको भेट्टाउनेछ ।
Blessed is that servant whom his lord will find doing so when he comes.
44 म साँचो भन्दछु, कि उसले सबै सम्पत्तिको हक उसलाई दिनेछ ।
Truly I tell you, that he will set him over all that he has.
45 तर यदि सेवकले आफ्नो हृदयमा यसो भन्दछ भने, मेरो मालिक फर्की आउन ढिलो गर्नुहुनेछ भनी स्त्री तथा पुरुष सेवकहरूलाई दुर्व्यवहार गरी कुटपिट गर्दछ अनि खाँदै, पिउँदै दाखमद्यले मातिन्छ ।
But if that servant says in his heart, ‘My lord delays his coming,’ and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken,
46 त्यस सेवकले नचिताएको बेलामा मालिक फर्की आउनेछ, जुन घडी उसलाई थाहै हुनेछैन । आफ्नो मालिकले उसलाई भेटेर टुक्रा-टुक्रा गरी काट्नेछ र अविश्वासीहरूका लागि तयार पारेको ठाउँमा उसको नियुक्ति हुनेछ ।
then the lord of that servant will come in a day when he is not expecting him, and in an hour that he does not know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful.
47 त्यस सेवकलाई आफ्नो मालिकले यस्तै गर्नेछन भन्ने थाहा हुँदाहुँदै पनि आफैँलाई तयार नगरी वा आफ्नो इच्छाअनुसार गरेको कारण उसलाई धेरै मुक्का हानिनेछ ।
That servant, who knew his lord’s will, and didn’t prepare, nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes,
48 तर जसले थाहै नभईकन मुक्का पाउने योग्यको काम गर्दछ, उसलाई थोरै मात्र मुक्काहरू दिइनेछ । हरेक जसलाई धेरै दिइएको छ, उसबाट पनि चाहिए जति असुलिने छ, जसलाई तिनीहरूले धेरै जिम्मा दिइएको छ उसबाट धेरै नै फिर्ता मागिनेछ ।
but he who didn’t know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.
49 म पृथ्वीमा आगो वर्षाउन आएको हुँ र म जे चाहन्छु त्यो भइसकेको छ ।
“I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled.
50 तर मैले एउटा बप्तिस्मा लिनुपर्नेछ, यो पुरा नहुन्जेलसम्म मैले कष्ट भोग्नुपर्छ ।
But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!
51 के म पृथ्वीमा शान्ति ल्याउन आएको हुँ भनी सोच्द्छौ? होइन, म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि म बरु विभाजन ल्याउन आएँ ।
Do you think that I have come to give peace in the earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.
52 अब परिवारमा भएका पाँच जना मानिसमध्ये तिन जना दुई जनाको विरुद्धमा वा दुई जना तिन जनाको विरुद्धमा हुनेछन् ।
For from now on, there will be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 त्यहाँ विभाजन हुनेछ । बाबुको विरुद्धमा छोरा र छोराको विरुद्धमा बाबु हुनेछ; आमा छोरीको विरुद्धमा र छोरी आमाको विरुद्धमा, सासू बुहारीको विरुद्धमा र बुहारी सासूको विरुद्धमा हुनेछिन् ।
They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against her mother; mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”
54 येशूले भिडलाई पनि यसो भनिरहनुभएको थियो, “जब तिमीहरूले पश्चिम दिशामा बादल उठेको देख्दछौ र तुरुन्तै भन्दछौ, ‘वृष्टि हुनेछ र त्यस्तै हुनेछ ।’
He said to the multitudes also, “When you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and so it happens.
55 जब दक्षिणबाट बतास बहन्छ, तिमीहरू भन्दछौ, ‘त्यो एकदमै प्रचण्ड तातो हुनेछ र त्यस्तै हुनेछ ।’
When a south wind blows, you say, ‘There will be a scorching heat,’ and it happens.
56 पाखण्डीहरू हो, तिमीहरू जान्दछौ कि पृथ्वी र स्वर्गमा भएका चिह्नहरूलाई हेरेर, के हुँदै छ त्यो भन्न सक्दछौ, तर अहिलेको वर्तमान समयको विषयमा केही भन्न सक्दैनौँ?
You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you don’t interpret this time?
57 तिम्रो आफ्नै लागि जे कुरा ठिक छ, त्यसमा किन न्याय गर्दैनौ?
Why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?
58 तिमी आफ्नो विरोधीसँग प्रशासककहाँ जाँदा, बाटोमा नै आफ्नो मुद्दा मिलाऊ ताकि उसले तिमीलाई न्यायमा नडोर्याओस् र हाकिमकहाँ नसुम्पोस्, नत्रता हाकिमले तिमीलाई झ्यालखानामा हाल्नेछ ।
For when you are going with your adversary before the magistrate, try diligently on the way to be released from him, lest perhaps he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.
59 म तिमीलाई भन्दछु, “तिमी कहिल्यै पनि त्यहाँबाट मुक्त भएर आउन सक्दैनौ जबसम्म तिमीले त्यसको पैसा चुक्ता गर्दैनौँ ।”
I tell you, you will by no means get out of there, until you have paid the very last penny.”
