mathiḥ 9
1 anantaraṁ yīśu rnaukāmāruhya punaḥ pāramāgatya nijagrāmam āyayau|
And he got into a boat and went across and came to his town.
2 tataḥ katipayā janā ekaṁ pakṣāghātinaṁ svaṭṭopari śāyayitvā tatsamīpam ānayan; tato yīśusteṣāṁ pratītiṁ vijñāya taṁ pakṣāghātinaṁ jagāda, he putra, susthiro bhava, tava kaluṣasya marṣaṇaṁ jātam|
And they took to him a man stretched on a bed who had no power of moving; and Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the man who was ill, Son, take heart; you have forgiveness for your sins.
3 tāṁ kathāṁ niśamya kiyanta upādhyāyā manaḥsu cintitavanta eṣa manuja īśvaraṁ nindati|
And some of the scribes said among themselves, This man has no respect for God.
4 tataḥ sa teṣām etādṛśīṁ cintāṁ vijñāya kathitavān, yūyaṁ manaḥsu kṛta etādṛśīṁ kucintāṁ kurutha?
And Jesus, having knowledge of what was in their minds, said, Why are your thoughts evil?
5 tava pāpamarṣaṇaṁ jātaṁ, yadvā tvamutthāya gaccha, dvayoranayo rvākyayoḥ kiṁ vākyaṁ vaktuṁ sugamaṁ?
For which is the simpler, to say, You have forgiveness for your sins; or to say, Get up and go?
6 kintu medinyāṁ kaluṣaṁ kṣamituṁ manujasutasya sāmarthyamastīti yūyaṁ yathā jānītha, tadarthaṁ sa taṁ pakṣāghātinaṁ gaditavān, uttiṣṭha, nijaśayanīyaṁ ādāya gehaṁ gaccha|
But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (then said he to the man who was ill, ) Get up, and take up your bed, and go to your house.
7 tataḥ sa tatkṣaṇād utthāya nijagehaṁ prasthitavān|
And he got up and went away to his house.
8 mānavā itthaṁ vilokya vismayaṁ menire, īśvareṇa mānavāya sāmarthyam īdṛśaṁ dattaṁ iti kāraṇāt taṁ dhanyaṁ babhāṣire ca|
But when the people saw it they were full of fear, and gave glory to God who had given such authority to men.
9 anantaraṁ yīśustatsthānād gacchan gacchan karasaṁgrahasthāne samupaviṣṭaṁ mathināmānam ekaṁ manujaṁ vilokya taṁ babhāṣe, mama paścād āgaccha, tataḥ sa utthāya tasya paścād vavrāja|
And when Jesus was going from there, he saw a man whose name was Matthew, seated at the place where taxes were taken; and he said to him, Come after me. And he got up and went after him.
10 tataḥ paraṁ yīśau gṛhe bhoktum upaviṣṭe bahavaḥ karasaṁgrāhiṇaḥ kaluṣiṇaśca mānavā āgatya tena sākaṁ tasya śiṣyaiśca sākam upaviviśuḥ|
And it came about, when he was in the house taking food, that a number of tax-farmers and sinners came and took their places with Jesus and his disciples.
11 phirūśinastad dṛṣṭvā tasya śiṣyān babhāṣire, yuṣmākaṁ guruḥ kiṁ nimittaṁ karasaṁgrāhibhiḥ kaluṣibhiśca sākaṁ bhuṁkte?
And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why does your Master take food with tax-farmers and sinners?
12 yīśustat śrutvā tān pratyavadat, nirāmayalokānāṁ cikitsakena prayojanaṁ nāsti, kintu sāmayalokānāṁ prayojanamāste|
But on hearing this he said, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill.
13 ato yūyaṁ yātvā vacanasyāsyārthaṁ śikṣadhvam, dayāyāṁ me yathā prīti rna tathā yajñakarmmaṇi|yato'haṁ dhārmmikān āhvātuṁ nāgato'smi kintu manaḥ parivarttayituṁ pāpina āhvātum āgato'smi|
But go and take to heart the sense of these words, My desire is for mercy, not offerings: for I have come not to get the upright, but sinners.
14 anantaraṁ yohanaḥ śiṣyāstasya samīpam āgatya kathayāmāsuḥ, phirūśino vayañca punaḥ punarupavasāmaḥ, kintu tava śiṣyā nopavasanti, kutaḥ?
Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees frequently go without food, but your disciples do not?
15 tadā yīśustān avocat yāvat sakhīnāṁ saṁṅge kanyāyā varastiṣṭhati, tāvat kiṁ te vilāpaṁ karttuṁ śakluvanti? kintu yadā teṣāṁ saṁṅgād varaṁ nayanti, tādṛśaḥ samaya āgamiṣyati, tadā te upavatsyanti|
And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of the newly-married man be sad as long as he is with them? But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then will they go without food.
16 purātanavasane kopi navīnavastraṁ na yojayati, yasmāt tena yojitena purātanavasanaṁ chinatti tacchidrañca bahukutsitaṁ dṛśyate|
And no man puts a bit of new cloth on an old coat, for by pulling away from the old, it makes a worse hole.
17 anyañca purātanakutvāṁ kopi navānagostanīrasaṁ na nidadhāti, yasmāt tathā kṛte kutū rvidīryyate tena gostanīrasaḥ patati kutūśca naśyati; tasmāt navīnāyāṁ kutvāṁ navīno gostanīrasaḥ sthāpyate, tena dvayoravanaṁ bhavati|
And men do not put new wine into old wine-skins; or the skins will be burst and the wine will come out, and the skins are of no more use: but they put new wine into new wine-skins, and so the two will be safe.
18 aparaṁ tenaitatkathākathanakāle eko'dhipatistaṁ praṇamya babhāṣe, mama duhitā prāyeṇaitāvatkāle mṛtā, tasmād bhavānāgatya tasyā gātre hastamarpayatu, tena sā jīviṣyati|
While he was saying these things to them, there came a ruler and gave him worship, saying, My daughter is even now dead; but come and put your hand on her, and she will come back to life.
19 tadānīṁ yīśuḥ śiṣyaiḥ sākam utthāya tasya paścād vavrāja|
And Jesus got up and went after him, and so did his disciples.
20 ityanantare dvādaśavatsarān yāvat pradarāmayena śīrṇaikā nārī tasya paścād āgatya tasya vasanasya granthiṁ pasparśa;
And a woman, who for twelve years had had a flow of blood, came after him, and put her hand on the edge of his robe:
21 yasmāt mayā kevalaṁ tasya vasanaṁ spṛṣṭvā svāsthyaṁ prāpsyate, sā nārīti manasi niścitavatī|
Because, she said to herself, if I may but put my hand on his robe, I will be made well.
22 tato yīśurvadanaṁ parāvarttya tāṁ jagāda, he kanye, tvaṁ susthirā bhava, tava viśvāsastvāṁ svasthāmakārṣīt| etadvākye gaditaeva sā yoṣit svasthābhūt|
But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, Daughter, take heart; your faith has made you well. And the woman was made well from that hour.
23 aparaṁ yīśustasyādhyakṣasya gehaṁ gatvā vādakaprabhṛtīn bahūn lokān śabdāyamānān vilokya tān avadat,
And when Jesus came into the ruler's house and saw the players with their instruments and the people making a noise,
24 panthānaṁ tyaja, kanyeyaṁ nāmriyata nidritāste; kathāmetāṁ śrutvā te tamupajahasuḥ|
He said, Make room; for the girl is not dead, but sleeping. And they were laughing at him.
25 kintu sarvveṣu bahiṣkṛteṣu so'bhyantaraṁ gatvā kanyāyāḥ karaṁ dhṛtavān, tena sodatiṣṭhat;
But when the people were sent out, he went in and took her by the hand; and the girl got up.
26 tatastatkarmmaṇo yaśaḥ kṛtsnaṁ taṁ deśaṁ vyāptavat|
And the news of it went out into all that land.
27 tataḥ paraṁ yīśustasmāt sthānād yātrāṁ cakāra; tadā he dāyūdaḥ santāna, asmān dayasva, iti vadantau dvau janāvandhau procairāhūyantau tatpaścād vavrajatuḥ|
And when Jesus went on from there, two blind men came after him, crying out, Have mercy on us, you Son of David.
28 tato yīśau gehamadhyaṁ praviṣṭaṁ tāvapi tasya samīpam upasthitavantau, tadānīṁ sa tau pṛṣṭavān karmmaitat karttuṁ mama sāmarthyam āste, yuvāṁ kimiti pratīthaḥ? tadā tau pratyūcatuḥ, satyaṁ prabho|
And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, Have you faith that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.
29 tadānīṁ sa tayo rlocanāni spṛśan babhāṣe, yuvayoḥ pratītyanusārād yuvayo rmaṅgalaṁ bhūyāt| tena tatkṣaṇāt tayo rnetrāṇi prasannānyabhavan,
Then he put his hand on their eyes, saying, As your faith is, let it be done to you.
30 paścād yīśustau dṛḍhamājñāpya jagāda, avadhattam etāṁ kathāṁ kopi manujo ma jānīyāt|
And their eyes were made open. And Jesus said to them sharply, Let no man have knowledge of it.
31 kintu tau prasthāya tasmin kṛtsne deśe tasya kīrttiṁ prakāśayāmāsatuḥ|
But they went out and gave news of him in all that land.
32 aparaṁ tau bahiryāta etasminnantare manujā ekaṁ bhūtagrastamūkaṁ tasya samīpam ānītavantaḥ|
And while they were going away, there came to him a man without the power of talking, and with an evil spirit.
33 tena bhūte tyājite sa mūkaḥ kathāṁ kathayituṁ prārabhata, tena janā vismayaṁ vijñāya kathayāmāsuḥ, isrāyelo vaṁśe kadāpi nedṛgadṛśyata;
And when the evil spirit had been sent out, the man had the power of talking: and they were all surprised, saying, Such a thing has never been seen in Israel.
34 kintu phirūśinaḥ kathayāñcakruḥ bhūtādhipatinā sa bhūtān tyājayati|
But the Pharisees said, By the ruler of evil spirits, he sends evil spirits out of men.
35 tataḥ paraṁ yīśusteṣāṁ bhajanabhavana upadiśan rājyasya susaṁvādaṁ pracārayan lokānāṁ yasya ya āmayo yā ca pīḍāsīt, tān śamayan śamayaṁśca sarvvāṇi nagarāṇi grāmāṁśca babhrāma|
And Jesus went about all the towns and small places, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom and making well all sorts of disease and pain.
36 anyañca manujān vyākulān arakṣakameṣāniva ca tyaktān nirīkṣya teṣu kāruṇikaḥ san śiṣyān avadat,
But when he saw all the people he was moved with pity for them, because they were troubled and wandering like sheep without a keeper.
37 śasyāni pracurāṇi santi, kintu chettāraḥ stokāḥ|
Then he said to his disciples, There is much grain but not enough men to get it in.
38 kṣetraṁ pratyaparān chedakān prahetuṁ śasyasvāminaṁ prārthayadhvam|
Make prayer, then, to the Lord of the grain-fields, that he may send out workers to get in his grain.
