lūkaḥ 10
1 tataḥ paraṁ prabhuraparān saptatiśiṣyān niyujya svayaṁ yāni nagarāṇi yāni sthānāni ca gamiṣyati tāni nagarāṇi tāni sthānāni ca prati dvau dvau janau prahitavān|
Then, after these things, the Lord also designated another seventy-two. And he sent them in pairs before his face, into every city and place where he was to arrive.
2 tēbhyaḥ kathayāmāsa ca śasyāni bahūnīti satyaṁ kintu chēdakā alpē; tasmāddhētōḥ śasyakṣētrē chēdakān aparānapi prēṣayituṁ kṣētrasvāminaṁ prārthayadhvaṁ|
And he said to them: “Certainly the harvest is great, but the workers are few. Therefore, ask the Lord of the harvest to send workers into his harvest.
3 yūyaṁ yāta, paśyata, vr̥kāṇāṁ madhyē mēṣaśāvakāniva yuṣmān prahiṇōmi|
Go forth. Behold, I send you out like lambs among wolves.
4 yūyaṁ kṣudraṁ mahad vā vasanasampuṭakaṁ pādukāśca mā gr̥hlīta, mārgamadhyē kamapi mā namata ca|
Do not choose to carry a purse, nor provisions, nor shoes; and you shall greet no one along the way.
5 aparañca yūyaṁ yad yat nivēśanaṁ praviśatha tatra nivēśanasyāsya maṅgalaṁ bhūyāditi vākyaṁ prathamaṁ vadata|
Into whatever house you will have entered, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’
6 tasmāt tasmin nivēśanē yadi maṅgalapātraṁ sthāsyati tarhi tanmaṅgalaṁ tasya bhaviṣyati, nōcēt yuṣmān prati parāvarttiṣyatē|
And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.
7 aparañca tē yatkiñcid dāsyanti tadēva bhuktvā pītvā tasminnivēśanē sthāsyatha; yataḥ karmmakārī janō bhr̥tim arhati; gr̥hād gr̥haṁ mā yāsyatha|
And remain in the same house, eating and drinking the things that are with them. For the worker is worthy of his pay. Do not choose to pass from house to house.
8 anyacca yuṣmāsu kimapi nagaraṁ praviṣṭēṣu lōkā yadi yuṣmākam ātithyaṁ kariṣyanti, tarhi yat khādyam upasthāsyanti tadēva khādiṣyatha|
And into whatever city you have entered and they have received you, eat what they set before you.
9 tannagarasthān rōgiṇaḥ svasthān kariṣyatha, īśvarīyaṁ rājyaṁ yuṣmākam antikam āgamat kathāmētāñca pracārayiṣyatha|
And cure the sick who are in that place, and proclaim to them, ‘The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’
10 kintu kimapi puraṁ yuṣmāsu praviṣṭēṣu lōkā yadi yuṣmākam ātithyaṁ na kariṣyanti, tarhi tasya nagarasya panthānaṁ gatvā kathāmētāṁ vadiṣyatha,
But into whatever city you have entered and they have not received you, going out into its main streets, say:
11 yuṣmākaṁ nagarīyā yā dhūlyō'smāsu samalagan tā api yuṣmākaṁ prātikūlyēna sākṣyārthaṁ sampātayāmaḥ; tathāpīśvararājyaṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpam āgatam iti niścitaṁ jānīta|
‘Even the dust which clings to us from your city, we wipe away against you. Yet know this: the kingdom of God has drawn near.’
12 ahaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ yathārthaṁ kathayāmi, vicāradinē tasya nagarasya daśātaḥ sidōmō daśā sahyā bhaviṣyati|
I say to you, that in that day, Sodom will be forgiven more than that city will be.
13 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|
Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that have been wrought in you, had been wrought in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in haircloth and ashes.
14 atō vicāradivasē yuṣmākaṁ daśātaḥ sōrasīdōnnivāsināṁ daśā sahyā bhaviṣyati|
Yet truly, Tyre and Sidon will be forgiven more in the judgment than you will be.
And as for you, Capernaum, who would be exalted even up to Heaven: you shall be submerged into Hell. (Hadēs g86)
16 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|
Whoever hears you, hears me. And whoever despises you, despises me. And whoever despises me, despises him who sent me.”
17 atha tē saptatiśiṣyā ānandēna pratyāgatya kathayāmāsuḥ, hē prabhō bhavatō nāmnā bhūtā apyasmākaṁ vaśībhavanti|
Then the seventy-two returned with gladness, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us, in your name.”
18 tadānīṁ sa tān jagāda, vidyutamiva svargāt patantaṁ śaitānam adarśam|
And he said to them: “I was watching as Satan fell like lightning from heaven.
19 paśyata sarpān vr̥ścikān ripōḥ sarvvaparākramāṁśca padatalai rdalayituṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ śaktiṁ dadāmi tasmād yuṣmākaṁ kāpi hāni rna bhaviṣyati|
Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the powers of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.
20 bhūtā yuṣmākaṁ vaśībhavanti, ētannimittat mā samullasata, svargē yuṣmākaṁ nāmāni likhitāni santīti nimittaṁ samullasata|
Yet truly, do not choose to rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
21 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|
In the same hour, he exulted in the Holy Spirit, and he said: “I confess to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the prudent, and have revealed them to little ones. It is so, Father, because this way was pleasing before you.
22 pitrā sarvvāṇi mayi samarpitāni pitaraṁ vinā kōpi putraṁ na jānāti kiñca putraṁ vinā yasmai janāya putrastaṁ prakāśitavān tañca vinā kōpi pitaraṁ na jānāti|
All things have been delivered to me by my Father. And no one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and those to whom the Son has chosen to reveal him.”
23 tapaḥ paraṁ sa śiṣyān prati parāvr̥tya guptaṁ jagāda, yūyamētāni sarvvāṇi paśyatha tatō yuṣmākaṁ cakṣūṁṣi dhanyāni|
And turning to his disciples, he said: “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.
24 yuṣmānahaṁ vadāmi, yūyaṁ yāni sarvvāṇi paśyatha tāni bahavō bhaviṣyadvādinō bhūpatayaśca draṣṭumicchantōpi draṣṭuṁ na prāpnuvan, yuṣmābhi ryā yāḥ kathāśca śrūyantē tāḥ śrōtumicchantōpi śrōtuṁ nālabhanta|
For I say to you, that many prophets and kings wanted to see the things that you see, and they did not see them, and to hear the things that you hear, and they did not hear them.”
25 anantaram ēkō vyavasthāpaka utthāya taṁ parīkṣituṁ papraccha, hē upadēśaka anantāyuṣaḥ prāptayē mayā kiṁ karaṇīyaṁ? (aiōnios g166)
And behold, a certain expert in the law rose up, testing him and saying, “Teacher, what must I do to possess eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
26 yīśuḥ pratyuvāca, atrārthē vyavasthāyāṁ kiṁ likhitamasti? tvaṁ kīdr̥k paṭhasi?
But he said to him: “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
27 tataḥ sōvadat, tvaṁ sarvvāntaḥkaraṇaiḥ sarvvaprāṇaiḥ sarvvaśaktibhiḥ sarvvacittaiśca prabhau paramēśvarē prēma kuru, samīpavāsini svavat prēma kuru ca|
In response, he said: “You shall love the Lord your God from your whole heart, and from your whole soul, and from all your strength, and from all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
28 tadā sa kathayāmāsa, tvaṁ yathārthaṁ pratyavōcaḥ, ittham ācara tēnaiva jīviṣyasi|
And he said to him: “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
29 kintu sa janaḥ svaṁ nirddōṣaṁ jñāpayituṁ yīśuṁ papraccha, mama samīpavāsī kaḥ? tatō yīśuḥ pratyuvāca,
But since he wanted to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 ēkō janō yirūśālampurād yirīhōpuraṁ yāti, ētarhi dasyūnāṁ karēṣu patitē tē tasya vastrādikaṁ hr̥tavantaḥ tamāhatya mr̥taprāyaṁ kr̥tvā tyaktvā yayuḥ|
Then Jesus, taking this up, said: “A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he happened upon robbers, who now also plundered him. And inflicting him with wounds, they went away, leaving him behind, half-alive.
31 akasmād ēkō yājakastēna mārgēṇa gacchan taṁ dr̥ṣṭvā mārgānyapārśvēna jagāma|
And it happened that a certain priest was descending along the same way. And seeing him, he passed by.
32 ittham ēkō lēvīyastatsthānaṁ prāpya tasyāntikaṁ gatvā taṁ vilōkyānyēna pārśvēna jagāma|
And similarly a Levite, when he was near the place, also saw him, and he passed by.
33 kintvēkaḥ śōmirōṇīyō gacchan tatsthānaṁ prāpya taṁ dr̥ṣṭvādayata|
But a certain Samaritan, being on a journey, came near him. And seeing him, he was moved by mercy.
34 tasyāntikaṁ gatvā tasya kṣatēṣu tailaṁ drākṣārasañca prakṣipya kṣatāni baddhvā nijavāhanōpari tamupavēśya pravāsīyagr̥ham ānīya taṁ siṣēvē|
And approaching him, he bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. And setting him on his pack animal, he brought him to an inn, and he took care of him.
35 parasmin divasē nijagamanakālē dvau mudrāpādau tadgr̥hasvāminē dattvāvadat janamēnaṁ sēvasva tatra yō'dhikō vyayō bhaviṣyati tamahaṁ punarāgamanakālē pariśōtsyāmi|
And the next day, he took out two denarii, and he gave them to the proprietor, and he said: ‘Take care of him. And whatever extra you will have spent, I will repay to you at my return.’
36 ēṣāṁ trayāṇāṁ madhyē tasya dasyuhastapatitasya janasya samīpavāsī kaḥ? tvayā kiṁ budhyatē?
Which of these three, does it seem to you, was a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
37 tataḥ sa vyavasthāpakaḥ kathayāmāsa yastasmin dayāṁ cakāra| tadā yīśuḥ kathayāmāsa tvamapi gatvā tathācara|
Then he said, “The one who acted with mercy toward him.” And Jesus said to him, “Go, and act similarly.”
38 tataḥ paraṁ tē gacchanta ēkaṁ grāmaṁ praviviśuḥ; tadā marthānāmā strī svagr̥hē tasyātithyaṁ cakāra|
Now it happened that, while they were traveling, he entered into a certain town. And a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her home.
39 tasmāt mariyam nāmadhēyā tasyā bhaginī yīśōḥ padasamīpa uvaviśya tasyōpadēśakathāṁ śrōtumārēbhē|
And she had a sister, named Mary, who, while sitting beside the Lord’s feet, was listening to his word.
40 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|
Now Martha was continually busying herself with serving. And she stood still and said: “Lord, is it not a concern to you that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore, speak to her, so that she may help me.”
41 tatō yīśuḥ pratyuvāca hē marthē hē marthē, tvaṁ nānākāryyēṣu cintitavatī vyagrā cāsi,
And the Lord responded by saying to her: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled over many things.
42 kintu prayōjanīyam ēkamātram āstē| aparañca yamuttamaṁ bhāgaṁ kōpi harttuṁ na śaknōti saēva mariyamā vr̥taḥ|
And yet only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the best portion, and it shall not be taken away from her.”
