Matthew 9
1 येशू एउटा डुङ्गामा चढ्नुभयो र झील पारी जानुभयो अनि उहाँ आफ्नो शहरमा पुग्नुभयो।
2 केही मानिसहरू एकजना पक्षवाती रोगीलाई आफूहरू सित लिएर येशू भएकहाँ आए। त्यो मानिस ओछ्यानमै लडीरहेको थियो। येशूले तिनीहरूमा औधी विश्वास भएको देख्नुभयो। अनि उहाँले त्यो पक्षवातीको रोगीलाई भन्नुभयो, ‘सुखी होऊ, जवान मानिस! तिम्रो पापहरू क्षमा गरिएका छन्।’
3 केही शास्त्रीहरूले यी कुराहरू सुने। तिनीहरूले आफू माझ त्यस कुराको वहस गरे, “यो मानिस परमेश्वरले जस्तै कूरा गर्छ उसले परमेश्वरकै निन्दाको कुरा गरे जस्तो छ।”
4 तिनीहरूले के सोंचिरहेका छन् भनेर येशूले जान्नू भयो अनि उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “किन तिनीहरू यस्ता दुष्ट विचारहरू आफ्नो मनमा राख्छौ?
5 यो पक्षावती रोगीलाई कुन कुरा भन्न असल छ ‘तिम्रा पापहरू क्षमा गरिए’ अथवा ‘उठ’ र ‘हिंड’ भन्नु।
6 म तिनीहरूलाई यो देखाउनेछु कि यस पृथ्वीमा मानिसको पुत्रलाई पापको क्षमा गर्ने शक्ति प्राप्त छ। तब येशूले पक्षवातको रोगीलाई भन्नुभयो, ‘उठ तिम्रो बिछ्यौना बोक र घर जाऊ।’
7 अनि त्यो मानिस उठयो र घरतिर लाग्यो।
8 मानिसहरू यो देखी छक्क परे। मानिसहरूलाई यस्तो शक्ति प्रदान गरेकोमा तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरको प्रशंसा गरे।
9 जब येशू गइरहनु भएको थियो, उहाँले एकजना मत्ती नाम गरेको मानिसलाई भेटनु भयो। मत्ती महसूल उठाउने अड्डामा बसिहहेका थिए। येशूले भन्नुभयो, “मसित आऊ।” त्यसपछि मत्ती जुरूक्क उठे र येशूको पछि लागे।
10 येशू बेलुकीको भोजन मत्तीकै घरमा खान बस्नु भएको बेला त्यहाँ धेरै कर उठाउनेहरू र पापीहरू आएका थिए अनि तिनीहरूले येशू र उहाँका चेलाहरू सँगै भोजन खादै थिए।
11 येशूले ती मानिसहरूसँग खाना खाइ रहनु भएको फरिसीहरूले देखे। फरिसीहरूले येशूका चेलाहरूलाई सोधे, ‘किन तिमीहरूका गुरूले कर उठाउनेहरू र पापीहरूसँग बसेर खाना खान्छन्?’
12 फरिसीहरूले भन्दै गरेको कुरा येशूको सुन्नुभयो। अनि उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “स्वस्थ मानिसहरूलाई वैद्यको आवश्यकता पर्दैन। जो रोगी छ उसैलाई वैद्यको आवश्यकता पर्दछ।
13 म तिमीहरूलाई एउटा कुरो भन्नेछु। जाऊ अनि यसको अर्थ के हो सिक ‘म पशुको बलिदान चाहन्न। म मानिसहरूमा दया चाहन्छु।”म यहाँ धार्मिक मानिसहरूलाई भेट्न आएको होइन, ती पापीहरूलाई भेट्न आएको हुँ।’
14 त्यसपछि यूहन्नाका चेलाहरू येशूकहाँ आए। तिनीहरूले येशूलाई भने, ‘हामी अनि फरिसीहरू धेरै जसो उपवास बस्दछौ। ती तपाईंका चेलाहरू किन उपवास बस्दैनन्?’
15 येशूले भन्नुभयो, “विवाहको बेलामा जो दुलहासँग हुन्छन्, तिनले दुख मान्दैनन् तर त्यस्तो समय आउँछ जब तिनीहरूबाट दुलहालाई अलग गरिन्छ। तब तिनीहरू दुखी बन्छन् र तिनीहरू उपवास लिन्छन्।
16 ‘कसैले पुरानो वस्त्रमा भएको प्वालमा नखुम्चिएको लुगाको टुक्रा टाल्दैन। यदि कसैले त्यसो गरे त्यो टालो पुरानो लुगाबाट च्यातिन्छ र त्यो प्वाल झन नराम्रो हुन्छ।
17 कसैले पनि नयाँ दाखरसलाई छालाको पुरानो थैलाहरूमा हाल्दैन। पुरानो थैलीमा कसैले नयाँ दाखरस हाल्यो भने, त्यो थैली फाट्छ र दाखरस पनि नष्ट हुन्छ। यसकारण मानिसहरूले नयाँ थैलाहरूमा नयाँ दाखरस हाल्दछन्। यसरी दाखरस र थैलाहरू दुवै सुरक्षित रहन्छन्।”
18 येशू यी कुराहरू भन्दै हुनुहुन्थ्यो, त्यसैबला सभाधरको एकजना प्रमुख उहाँकहाँ आए। येशूको अघि तिनले शिर झुकाए, अनि भने, ‘मेरी छोरी अहिले मरी कृपया आउनुहोस् र तपाईंको हात त्यसमाथि राखिदिनुहोस् अनि त्यसले आफ्नो जीवन फिर्ता पाउनेछ।’
19 तुरन्तै यशू उठनु भयो अनि तिनीसित जानुभयो। उहाँका चेलाहरू पनि पछि लागे।
20 बाह्र र्वषदेखि रगत बहने रोगले ग्रस्त एउटी स्त्री त्यहाँ थिईना। येशूको पछिल्तिर आएर उनले उहाँको वस्त्रको फेरमा छोइन्।
21 तिनले सोच्दै थिइन्, “यदि मैले उहाँको लुगाको फेरमा छोएँ मात्र भने पनि म ठीक भइजानेछु।’
22 येशू पछिल्तिर र्फकिनु भयो र तिनलाई देखेर भन्नुभयो, “हे प्यारी छोरी खुशी होऊ। तिम्रो विश्वासले तिमी निको भएकि छौ।’ त्यतिनै बेला तिनी ठीक भइन्।
23 येशू यहुदी शासकसँग हिंडदै हुनुहुन्थ्यो। उहाँ तिनको घरमा पुग्नुभयो। उहाँले मानिसहरूलाई शोक धुन बजाइरहेको देख्नुभयो। उहाँले धेरै मानिसहरूलाई त्यहाँ रोइरहेको देख्नुभयो किनभने युवती मरेकी थिई।
24 येशूले भन्नुभयो, ‘पर जाऊ। यो युवती मरेकी छैन। ऊ निदाइरहेकी मात्र छे।” यो देखेर मानिसहरूले उहाँको हाँसो उडाए।
25 जब मानिसहरूलाई घरबाट बाहिर पठाइयो, तब येशू युवतीको कोठामा प्रवेश गर्नुभयो। उहाँले युवतीको हात समात्नुभयो अनि त्यो युवती जुरुक्क उठी।
26 तब यस कुराको खबर सारा मुलुकभरि फिंजियो।येशूद्वारा धेरै मानिसहरू निको भए
27 जब येशू त्यो स्थानबाट गईरहनु भएको थियो, दुइजना अन्धो मानिसले उहाँलाई पछ्याए। ती अन्धाहरूले ठूलो स्वरले रूदै भने, “हे दाऊदका पुत्र, कृपया हामीलाई सहायता गर्नुहोस्।”
28 जब येशू घर भित्र पस्नुभयो, ती अन्धा मानिसहरू उहाँकहाँ आए। उहाँले ती अन्धाहरूलाई भन्नुभयो। “के म तिमीहरूलाई फेरि देख्न सक्ने बनाउँछु भनेर तिमीहरूलाई विश्वास लाग्छ?” अन्धा मानिसहरूले जवाफ दिए, “ज्यू, प्रभु, हामीलाई विश्वास लाग्छ।”
29 त्यसपछि येशूले तिनीहरूका आँखाहरू छोएर भन्नुभयो, ‘मैले तिमीहरूलाई देख्नसक्ने बनाउन सक्छु भन्ने विश्वास तिमीहरूसित छ। यस्तै हुन देऊ।”
30 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले तुरन्तै देख्न सके। येशूले तिनीहरूलाई कडा चेताउनी दिनु भयो, उहाँले भन्नु भयो, “यो कुरा कसैले थाहा पाउनु हुँदैन।’
31 तर ती अन्धा मानिसहरू बाहिर गए अनि त्यस क्षेत्रमा चारैतिर येशूको खबर फिंजाए।
32 जब ती दुइ मानिसहरू जादै थिए, केही मानिसहरूले अर्को एकजनालाई येशूकहाँ ल्याए। उसलाई भूत लागेको हुनाले त्यो मानिसले बोल्ने शक्ति गुमाएको थियो।
33 येशूले त्यस मानिसबाट भूत भगाइदिनुभयो। त्यसपछि त्यो मानिस बोल्न थाल्यो। मानिसहरू छक्क पर्दै भन्नलागे, ‘ इस्राएलमा यसप्रकारको घटना पहिले कहिल्यै घटेको थिएन।’
34 तर फरिसीहरूले भने, “भूतहरूको नेता एउटै छ जसले उहाँलाई भूत पाउने शक्ति दिएको छ।”
35 येशू सारा शहर र गाउँहरू हुँदै यात्रा गर्नुभयो। तिनीहरूका सभाघरहरूमा शिक्षा दिनुभयो अनि राज्यको बारेमा सुसमाचार प्रचार गर्नु भयो। येशूले सबै प्रकारका रोग र बिमारीहरू निको पार्नुभयो।
36 उहाँले भीडलाई देख्नूभयो र उनीहरूको निम्ति टिठाउनु भयो। किनभने तिनीहरू असहाय अनि चिन्तित थिए। तिनीहरू गोठालो नभएका भेडाँहरू जस्तै हैरान भई तितर-बितर भएका थिए।
37 येशूले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, ‘फसल ता धेरै छन् तर फसल काट्ने खेतालाहरू कम्ती छन्।
38 प्रभु फसलका मालिक हुनुहुन्छ। उहाँलाई प्रार्थना गर जसद्वारा उहाँले आफ्ना फसल संग्रह गर्न अधिक कर्मीहरू पठाउनू हुनेछ।”
1 And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.
2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.
3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.
4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?
5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?
6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.
7 And he arose, and departed to his house.
8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.
9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.
10 And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.
11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?
12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?
15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.
16 No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.
17 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
18 While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.
19 And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.
20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:
21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.
22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.
23 And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,
24 He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.
25 But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.
26 And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.
27 And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us.
28 And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.
29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.
30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.
31 But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.
32 As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.
33 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.
34 But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils.
35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;
38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
1 If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the Lord, return unto me: and if thou wilt put away thine abominations out of my sight, then shalt thou not remove.
2 And thou shalt swear, The Lord liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness; and the nations shall bless themselves in him, and in him shall they glory.
3 For thus saith the Lord to the men of Judah and Jerusalem, Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns.
4 Circumcise yourselves to the Lord, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
5 Declare ye in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem; and say, Blow ye the trumpet in the land: cry, gather together, and say, Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the defenced cities.
6 Set up the standard toward Zion: retire, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.
7 The lion is come up from his thicket, and the destroyer of the Gentiles is on his way; he is gone forth from his place to make thy land desolate; and thy cities shall be laid waste, without an inhabitant.
8 For this gird you with sackcloth, lament and howl: for the fierce anger of the Lord is not turned back from us.
9 And it shall come to pass at that day, saith the Lord, that the heart of the king shall perish, and the heart of the princes; and the priests shall be astonished, and the prophets shall wonder.
10 Then said I, Ah, Lord God! surely thou hast greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall have peace; whereas the sword reacheth unto the soul.
11 At that time shall it be said to this people and to Jerusalem, A dry wind of the high places in the wilderness toward the daughter of my people, not to fan, nor to cleanse,
12 Even a full wind from those places shall come unto me: now also will I give sentence against them.
13 Behold, he shall come up as clouds, and his chariots shall be as a whirlwind: his horses are swifter than eagles. Woe unto us! for we are spoiled.
14 O Jerusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness, that thou mayest be saved. How long shall thy vain thoughts lodge within thee?
15 For a voice declareth from Dan, and publisheth affliction from mount Ephraim.
16 Make ye mention to the nations; behold, publish against Jerusalem, that watchers come from a far country, and give out their voice against the cities of Judah.
17 As keepers of a field, are they against her round about; because she hath been rebellious against me, saith the Lord.
18 Thy way and thy doings have procured these things unto thee; this is thy wickedness, because it is bitter, because it reacheth unto thine heart.
19 My bowels, my bowels! I am pained at my very heart; my heart maketh a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because thou hast heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war.
20 Destruction upon destruction is cried; for the whole land is spoiled: suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment.
21 How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet?
22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the Lord, and by his fierce anger.
27 For thus hath the Lord said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.
28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.
29 The whole city shall flee for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen; they shall go into thickets, and climb up upon the rocks: every city shall be forsaken, and not a man dwell therein.
30 And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.
31 For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that bewaileth herself, that spreadeth her hands, saying, Woe is me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.
