लूकः 20
1 अथैकदा यीशु र्मनिदरे सुसंवादं प्रचारयन् लोकानुपदिशति, एतर्हि प्रधानयाजका अध्यापकाः प्राञ्चश्च तन्निकटमागत्य पप्रच्छुः
On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
2 कयाज्ञया त्वं कर्म्माण्येतानि करोषि? को वा त्वामाज्ञापयत्? तदस्मान् वद।
They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”
3 स प्रत्युवाच, तर्हि युष्मानपि कथामेकां पृच्छामि तस्योत्तरं वदत।
He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
4 योहनो मज्जनम् ईश्वरस्य मानुषाणां वाज्ञातो जातं?
the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?”
5 ततस्ते मिथो विविच्य जगदुः, यदीश्वरस्य वदामस्तर्हि तं कुतो न प्रत्यैत स इति वक्ष्यति।
They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6 यदि मनुष्यस्येति वदामस्तर्हि सर्व्वे लोका अस्मान् पाषाणै र्हनिष्यन्ति यतो योहन् भविष्यद्वादीति सर्व्वे दृढं जानन्ति।
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7 अतएव ते प्रत्यूचुः कस्याज्ञया जातम् इति वक्तुं न शक्नुमः।
They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
8 तदा यीशुरवदत् तर्हि कयाज्ञया कर्म्माण्येताति करोमीति च युष्मान् न वक्ष्यामि।
Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9 अथ लोकानां साक्षात् स इमां दृष्टान्तकथां वक्तुमारेभे, कश्चिद् द्राक्षाक्षेत्रं कृत्वा तत् क्षेत्रं कृषीवलानां हस्तेषु समर्प्य बहुकालार्थं दूरदेशं जगाम।
He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.
10 अथ फलकाले फलानि ग्रहीतु कृषीवलानां समीपे दासं प्राहिणोत् किन्तु कृषीवलास्तं प्रहृत्य रिक्तहस्तं विससर्जुः।
At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty.
11 ततः सोधिपतिः पुनरन्यं दासं प्रेषयामास, ते तमपि प्रहृत्य कुव्यवहृत्य रिक्तहस्तं विससृजुः।
He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 ततः स तृतीयवारम् अन्यं प्राहिणोत् ते तमपि क्षताङ्गं कृत्वा बहि र्निचिक्षिपुः।
He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.
13 तदा क्षेत्रपति र्विचारयामास, ममेदानीं किं कर्त्तव्यं? मम प्रिये पुत्रे प्रहिते ते तमवश्यं दृष्ट्वा समादरिष्यन्ते।
The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’
14 किन्तु कृषीवलास्तं निरीक्ष्य परस्परं विविच्य प्रोचुः, अयमुत्तराधिकारी आगच्छतैनं हन्मस्ततोधिकारोस्माकं भविष्यति।
“But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’
15 ततस्ते तं क्षेत्राद् बहि र्निपात्य जघ्नुस्तस्मात् स क्षेत्रपतिस्तान् प्रति किं करिष्यति?
Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 स आगत्य तान् कृषीवलान् हत्वा परेषां हस्तेषु तत्क्षेत्रं समर्पयिष्यति; इति कथां श्रुत्वा ते ऽवदन् एतादृशी घटना न भवतु।
He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”
17 किन्तु यीशुस्तानवलोक्य जगाद, तर्हि, स्थपतयः करिष्यन्ति ग्रावाणं यन्तु तुच्छकं। प्रधानप्रस्तरः कोणे स एव हि भविष्यति। एतस्य शास्त्रीयवचनस्य किं तात्पर्य्यं?
But he looked at them and said, “Then what is this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the chief cornerstone’?
18 अपरं तत्पाषाणोपरि यः पतिष्यति स भंक्ष्यते किन्तु यस्योपरि स पाषाणः पतिष्यति स तेन धूलिवच् चूर्णीभविष्यति।
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”
19 सोस्माकं विरुद्धं दृष्टान्तमिमं कथितवान् इति ज्ञात्वा प्रधानयाजका अध्यापकाश्च तदैव तं धर्तुं ववाञ्छुः किन्तु लोकेभ्यो बिभ्युः।
The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
20 अतएव तं प्रति सतर्काः सन्तः कथं तद्वाक्यदोषं धृत्वा तं देशाधिपस्य साधुवेशधारिणश्चरान् तस्य समीपे प्रेषयामासुः।
They watched him and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
21 तदा ते तं पप्रच्छुः, हे उपदेशक भवान् यथार्थं कथयन् उपदिशति, कमप्यनपेक्ष्य सत्यत्वेनैश्वरं मार्गमुपदिशति, वयमेतज्जानीमः।
They asked him, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
22 कैसरराजाय करोस्माभि र्देयो न वा?
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 स तेषां वञ्चनं ज्ञात्वावदत् कुतो मां परीक्षध्वे? मां मुद्रामेकं दर्शयत।
But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?
24 इह लिखिता मूर्तिरियं नाम च कस्य? तेऽवदन् कैसरस्य।
Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesar’s.”
25 तदा स उवाच, तर्हि कैसरस्य द्रव्यं कैसराय दत्त; ईश्वरस्य तु द्रव्यमीश्वराय दत्त।
He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
26 तस्माल्लोकानां साक्षात् तत्कथायाः कमपि दोषं धर्तुमप्राप्य ते तस्योत्तराद् आश्चर्य्यं मन्यमाना मौनिनस्तस्थुः।
They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.
27 अपरञ्च श्मशानादुत्थानानङ्गीकारिणां सिदूकिनां कियन्तो जना आगत्य तं पप्रच्छुः,
Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
28 हे उपदेशक शास्त्रे मूसा अस्मान् प्रतीति लिलेख यस्य भ्राता भार्य्यायां सत्यां निःसन्तानो म्रियते स तज्जायां विवह्य तद्वंशम् उत्पादयिष्यति।
They asked him, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man’s brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife and raise up children for his brother.
29 तथाच केचित् सप्त भ्रातर आसन् तेषां ज्येष्ठो भ्राता विवह्य निरपत्यः प्राणान् जहौ।
There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
30 अथ द्वितीयस्तस्य जायां विवह्य निरपत्यः सन् ममार। तृतीयश्च तामेव व्युवाह;
The second took her as wife, and he died childless.
31 इत्थं सप्त भ्रातरस्तामेव विवह्य निरपत्याः सन्तो मम्रुः।
The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
32 शेषे सा स्त्री च ममार।
Afterward the woman also died.
33 अतएव श्मशानादुत्थानकाले तेषां सप्तजनानां कस्य सा भार्य्या भविष्यति? यतः सा तेषां सप्तानामेव भार्य्यासीत्।
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”
Jesus said to them, “The children of this age marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
35 किन्तु ये तज्जगत्प्राप्तियोग्यत्वेन गणितां भविष्यन्ति श्मशानाच्चोत्थास्यन्ति ते न विवहन्ति वाग्दत्ताश्च न भवन्ति, (aiōn g165)
But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 ते पुन र्न म्रियन्ते किन्तु श्मशानादुत्थापिताः सन्त ईश्वरस्य सन्तानाः स्वर्गीयदूतानां सदृशाश्च भवन्ति।
For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37 अधिकन्तु मूसाः स्तम्बोपाख्याने परमेश्वर ईब्राहीम ईश्वर इस्हाक ईश्वरो याकूबश्चेश्वर इत्युक्त्वा मृतानां श्मशानाद् उत्थानस्य प्रमाणं लिलेख।
But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord ‘The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38 अतएव य ईश्वरः स मृतानां प्रभु र्न किन्तु जीवतामेव प्रभुः, तन्निकटे सर्व्वे जीवन्तः सन्ति।
Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”
39 इति श्रुत्वा कियन्तोध्यापका ऊचुः, हे उपदेशक भवान् भद्रं प्रत्युक्तवान्।
Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”
40 इतः परं तं किमपि प्रष्टं तेषां प्रगल्भता नाभूत्।
They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.
41 पश्चात् स तान् उवाच, यः ख्रीष्टः स दायूदः सन्तान एतां कथां लोकाः कथं कथयन्ति?
He said to them, “Why do they say that the Christ is David’s son?
42 यतः मम प्रभुमिदं वाक्यमवदत् परमेश्वरः। तव शत्रूनहं यावत् पादपीठं करोमि न। तावत् कालं मदीये त्वं दक्षपार्श्व उपाविश।
David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
43 इति कथां दायूद् स्वयं गीतग्रन्थेऽवदत्।
until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
44 अतएव यदि दायूद् तं प्रभुं वदति, तर्हि स कथं तस्य सन्तानो भवति?
“David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”
45 पश्चाद् यीशुः सर्व्वजनानां कर्णगोचरे शिष्यानुवाच,
In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46 येऽध्यापका दीर्घपरिच्छदं परिधाय भ्रमन्ति, हट्टापणयो र्नमस्कारे भजनगेहस्य प्रोच्चासने भोजनगृहस्य प्रधानस्थाने च प्रीयन्ते
“Beware of those scribes who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
47 विधवानां सर्व्वस्वं ग्रसित्वा छलेन दीर्घकालं प्रार्थयन्ते च तेषु सावधाना भवत, तेषामुग्रदण्डो भविष्यति।
who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
