Exodus 2
1 ਮੂਸਾ ਦਾ ਜਨਮ ਲੇਵੀ ਦੇ ਪਰਿਵਾਰ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਇੱਕ ਆਦਮੀ ਸੀ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਇੱਕ ਔਰਤ ਨਾਲ ਸ਼ਾਦੀ ਕੀਤੀ ਸੀ ਜੋ ਲੇਵੀ ਦੇ ਪਰਿਵਾਰ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਹੀ ਸੀ।
2 ਔਰਤ ਗਰਭਵਤੀ ਹੋਈ, ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਇੱਕ ਮੁੰਡੇ ਨੂੰ ਜਨਮ ਦਿੱਤਾ। ਮਾਂ ਨੇ ਦੇਖਿਆ ਕਿ ਬੱਚਾ ਬਹੁਤ ਸੁਹਣਾ ਸੀ, ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਤਿੰਨ ਮਹੀਨੇ ਤੱਕ ਲੁਕਾਈ ਰੱਖਿਆ।
3 ਮਾਂ ਡਰਦੀ ਸੀ ਕਿ ਬੱਚੇ ਦਾ ਜ਼ਰੂਰ ਪਤਾ ਚੱਲ ਜਾਵੇਗਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਮਾਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਜਾਵੇਗਾ ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਉਹ ਮੁੰਡਾ ਸੀ। ਤਿੰਨਾ ਮਹੀਨਿਆਂ ਮਗਰੋਂ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਇੱਕ ਟੋਕਰਾ ਬਣਾਇਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਉੱਪਰ ਇੱਕ ਲੇਪ ਲਗਾਇਆ ਤਾਂ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਪਾਣੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਤਰ ਸੱਕੇ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਬੱਚੇ ਨੂੰ ਟੋਕਰੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਰੱਖ ਦਿੱਤਾ। ਫ਼ੇਰ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਟੋਕਰੇ ਨੂੰ ਨਦੀ ਵਿੱਚਲੀ ਕਾਹੀ ਦੇ ਅੰਦਰ ਰੱਖ ਦਿੱਤਾ।
4 ਬੱਚੇ ਦੀ ਭੈਣ ਇਹ ਵੇਖਣ ਲਈ ਉੱਥੇ ਥੋੜੀ ਦੂਰ ਤੇ ਹੀ ਖੜੀ ਹੋ ਗਈ ਕਿ ਬੱਚੇ ਨਾਲ ਕੀ ਵਾਪਰੇਗਾ।
5 ਓਸੇ ਵੇਲੇ, ਫ਼ਿਰਊਨ ਦੀ ਧੀ ਨਦੀ ਉੱਤੇ ਨਹਾਉਣ ਲਈ ਆਈ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਕਾਹੀ ਅੰਦਰ ਟੋਕਰਾ ਦੇਖਿਆ। ਉਸ ਦੀਆਂ ਦਾਸੀਆਂ ਨਦੀ ਕੰਢੇ ਤੁਰ ਰਹੀਆਂ ਸਨ। ਇਸ ਲਈ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਇੱਕ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ ਕਿ ਟੋਕਰਾ ਲੈ ਕੇ ਆ।
6 ਉਸ ਨੇ ਟੋਕਰਾ ਖੋਲ੍ਹਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਬੱਚੇ ਨੂੰ ਦੇਖਿਆ, ਜੋ ਕਿ ਰੋ ਰਿਹਾ ਸੀ। ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਉਸ ਉੱਤੇ ਤਰਸ ਆ ਗਿਆ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਆਖਿਆ; ਇਹ ਇਬਰਾਨੀ ਬੱਚਿਆਂ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਇੱਕ ਹੈ।
7 ਬੱਚੇ ਦੀ ਭੈਣ ਨੇ ਖਢ਼ੀ ਹੋਕੇ ਫ਼ਿਰਊਨ ਦੀ ਧੀ ਨੂੰ ਪੁੱਛਿਆ, “ਕੀ ਤੂੰ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੀ ਹੈਂ ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਕਿਸੇ ਇਬਰਾਨੀ ਔਰਤ ਨੂੰ ਲੱਭਕੇ ਲਿਆਵਾਂ ਜਿਹੜੀ ਬੱਚੇ ਨੂੰ ਦੁੱਧ ਚੁਂਘਾ ਸੱਕੇ ਅਤੇ ਇਸਦੀ ਦੇਖ-ਭਾਲ ਕਰਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਤੇਰੀ ਸਹਾਇਤਾ ਕਰ ਸੱਕੇ?”
8 ਰਾਜੇ ਦੀ ਧੀ ਨੇ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਹਾਂ, ਮਿਹਰਬਾਨੀ ਕਰਕੇ।” ਇਸ ਲਈ ਕੁੜੀ ਗਈ ਅਤੇ ਬੱਚੇ ਦੀ ਆਪਣੀ ਮਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਲੈ ਆਈ।
9 ਰਾਜੇ ਦੀ ਧੀ ਨੇ ਮਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਇਸ ਬੱਚੇ ਨੂੰ ਚੁੱਕ ਲੈ ਅਤੇ ਮੇਰੀ ਖਾਤਰ ਇਸ ਨੂੰ ਦੁੱਧ ਚੁੰਘਾ। ਮੈਂ ਇਸਦੀ ਦੇਖ-ਭਾਲ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਤੈਨੂੰ ਮਜ਼ਦੂਰੀ ਦੇਵਾਂਗੀ।” ਇਸ ਲਈ ਔਰਤ ਨੇ ਆਪਣਾ ਬੱਚਾ ਚੁੱਕ ਲਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਸਦੀ ਦੇਖ-ਭਾਲ ਕੀਤੀ।
10 ਬੱਚਾ ਵੱਡਾ ਹੋ ਗਿਆ, ਅਤੇ ਕੁਝ ਸਮੇਂ ਬਾਦ, ਔਰਤ ਨੇ ਬੱਚਾ ਰਾਜੇ ਦੀ ਧੀ ਨੂੰ ਦੇ ਦਿੱਤਾ। ਰਾਜੇ ਧੀ ਨੇ ਬੱਚੇ ਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਪੁੱਤਰ ਵਜੋਂ ਪ੍ਰਵਾਨ ਕਰ ਲਿਆ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਉਸਦਾ ਨਾਮ ਮੂਸਾ ਰੱਖਿਆ, ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਪਾਣੀ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਕੱਢਿਆ ਸੀ।
11 ਮੂਸਾ ਆਪਣੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਦੀ ਸਹਾਇਤਾ ਕਰਦਾ ਮੂਸਾ ਵੱਡਾ ਹੋਇਆ। ਇੱਕ ਦਿਨ ਉਹ ਆਪਣੇ ਇਬਰਾਨੀ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਕੋਲ ਗਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਵੇਖਿਆ ਕਿਵੇਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸਖਤ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਮਜ਼ਬੂਰ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਸੀ। ਉਸੇ ਸਮੇਂ, ਉਸ ਨੇ ਇੱਕ ਮਿਸਰੀ ਆਦਮੀ ਨੂੰ ਇਬਰਾਨੀ ਬੰਦੇ ਨੂੰ ਕੁੱਟਦਿਆਂ ਵੇਖਿਆ।
12 ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਆਲੇ-ਦੁਆਲੇ ਦੇਖਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਦੇਖਿਆ ਕਿ ਕੋਈ ਵੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਦੇਖ ਰਿਹਾ ਸੀ। ਫ਼ੇਰ ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਮਿਸਰੀ ਨੂੰ ਮਾਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਰੇਤੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਦਫ਼ਨਾ ਦਿੱਤਾ।
13 ਅਗਲੇ ਦਿਨ ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਦੋ ਇਬਰਾਨੀ ਬੰਦਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਦੇਖਿਆ ਜੋ ਆਪਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਲੜ ਰਹੇ ਸਨ। ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਦੇਖਿਆ ਕਿ ਇੱਕ ਆਦਮੀ ਗਲਤ ਸੀ। ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਉਸ ਆਦਮੀ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਤੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਗੁਆਂਢੀ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਉਂ ਦੁੱਖ ਦੇ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈਂ?”
14 ਆਦਮੀ ਨੇ ਜਵਾਬ ਦਿੱਤਾ, “ਕੀ ਤੈਨੂੰ ਕਿਸੇ ਨੇ ਆਖਿਆ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਤੂੰ ਸਾਡਾ ਨਿਆਂਕਾਰ ਹੋਵੇਂ? ਨਹੀਂ। ਮੈਨੂੰ ਦੱਸ, ਕੀ ਤੂੰ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਉਸੇ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਮਾਰ ਦੇਵੇਂਗਾ ਜਿਵੇਂ ਕੱਲ ਤੂੰ ਮਿਸਰੀ ਨੂੰ ਮਾਰਿਆ ਸੀ?” ਤਾਂ ਮੂਸਾ ਡਰ ਗਿਆ। ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਦਿਲ ਵਿੱਚ ਸੋਚਿਆ, “ਹੁਣ ਤਾਂ ਹਰ ਕੋਈ ਜਾਣਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਕੀ ਕੀਤਾ ਹੈ।”
15 ਜਦੋਂ ਫ਼ਿਰਊਨ ਨੇ ਮੂਸਾ ਦੀ ਇਸ ਹਰਕਤ ਬਾਰੇ ਸੁਣਿਆ, ਉਸ ਨੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਮਾਰ ਦੇਣ ਦਾ ਨਿਆਂ ਕਰ ਲਿਆ। ਪਰ ਮੂਸਾ ਫ਼ਿਰਊਨ ਤੋਂ ਦੂਰ ਨੱਸ ਗਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਮਿਦਯਾਨ ਦੀ ਧਰਤੀ ਤੇ ਠਹਿਰ ਗਿਆ। ਉਹ ਇੱਕ ਖੂਹ ਦੇ ਨੇੜੇ ਬੈਠ ਗਿਆ। ਮੂਸਾ ਮਿਦਯਾਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਮੂਸਾ ਮਿਦਯਾਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਇੱਕ ਖੂਹ ਤੇ ਜਾਕੇ ਰੁਕ ਗਿਆ।
16 ਮਿਦਯਾਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਇੱਕ ਜਾਜਕ ਸੀ ਜਿਸਦੀਆਂ ਸੱਤ ਧੀਆਂ ਸਨ। ਉਹ ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਆਪਣੇ ਪਿਤਾ ਦੀਆਂ ਭੇਡਾਂ ਲਈ ਪਾਣੀ ਭਰਨ ਵਾਸਤੇ ਉਸ ਖੂਹ ਤੇ ਆਈਆਂ। ਉਹ ਚੁਬੱਚੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਾਣੀ ਭਰਨ ਦੀ ਕੋਸ਼ਿਸ਼ ਕਰ ਰਹੀਆਂ ਸਨ।
17 ਪਰ ਉੱਥੇ ਕੁਝ ਅਯਾਲੀ ਸਨ ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਦੂਰ ਭਜਾ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪਾਣੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਭਰਨ ਦਿੱਤਾ। ਇਸ ਲਈ ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਦੀ ਸਹਾਇਤਾ ਕੀਤੀ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਪਸ਼ੂਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਪਾਣੀ ਦਿੱਤਾ।
18 ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਆਪਣੇ ਪਿਤਾ, ਰਊਏਲ ਕੋਲ ਵਾਪਸ ਚਲੀਆਂ ਗਈਆਂ। ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਪਿਤਾ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਅੱਜ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਛੇਤੀ ਘਰ ਆ ਗਈਆਂ ਹੋ।”
19 ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਨੇ ਜਵਾਬ ਦਿੱਤਾ, “ਹਾਂ ਜੀ, ਅਯਾਲੀਆਂ ਨੇ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਦੂਰ ਭਜਾਉਣ ਦੀ ਕੋਸ਼ਿਸ਼ ਕੀਤੀ। ਪਰ ਇੱਕ ਮਿਸਰੀ ਆਦਮੀ ਨੇ ਸਾਡੀ ਮਦਦ ਕੀਤੀ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਸਾਡੇ ਲਈ ਪਾਣੀ ਲਿਆਂਦਾ ਅਤੇ ਸਾਡੇ ਪਸ਼ੂਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਵੀ ਪਿਲਾਇਆ।”
20 ਇਸ ਲਈ ਰਊਏਲ ਨੇ ਆਪਣੀਆਂ ਧੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਕਿੱਥੇ ਹੈ ਉਹ ਆਦਮੀ? ਤੁਸੀਂ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਛੱਡ ਕੇ ਕਿਉਂ ਆ ਗਈਆਂ? ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਇੱਥੋਂ ਸੱਦੋ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਸਾਡੇ ਨਾਲ ਖਾਣਾ ਖੁਆਓ।”
21 ਮੂਸਾ ਉਸ ਆਦਮੀ ਕੋਲ ਠਹਿਰ ਕੇ ਖੁਸ਼ ਸੀ। ਰਊਏਲ ਨੇ ਮੂਸਾ ਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੀ ਧੀ ਸਿੱਪੋਰਾ ਵਿਆਹ ਦਿੱਤੀ।
22 ਸਿੱਪੋਰਾ ਗਰਭਵਤੀ ਹੋਈ ਅਤੇ ਇੱਕ ਪੁੱਤਰ ਨੂੰ ਜਨਮ ਦਿੱਤਾ। ਅਤੇ ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਉਸਦਾ ਨਾਮ ਗੇਰਸ਼ੋਮ ਰੱਖਿਆ। ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਪੁੱਤਰ ਨੂੰ ਇਹ ਨਾਮ ਇਸ ਲਈ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਇੱਕ ਪਰਾਈ ਧਰਤੀ ਉੱਤੇ ਅਜਨਬੀ ਸੀ।
23 ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਇਸਰਾਏਲ ਦੀ ਸਹਾਇਤਾ ਕਰਨ ਦਾ ਨਿਆਂ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ ਬਹੁਤ ਸਮਾਂ ਬੀਤ ਗਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਮਿਸਰ ਦਾ ਰਾਜਾ ਮਰ ਗਿਆ। ਪਰ ਇਸਰਾਏਲ ਦੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਹਾਲੇ ਵੀ ਸਖਤ ਮਿਹਨਤ ਦਾ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਮਜ਼ਬੂਰ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਸੀ। ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਸਹਾਇਤਾ ਲਈ ਪੁਕਾਰ ਕੀਤੀ ਅਤੇ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੀ ਪੁਕਾਰ ਸੁਣ ਲਈ।
24 ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੀਆਂ ਕਰਾਹਾਂ ਸੁਣੀਆਂ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਅਬਰਾਹਾਮ, ਇਸਹਾਕ ਅਤੇ ਯਾਕੂਬ ਨਾਲ ਕੀਤੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਇਕਰਾਰਨਾਮੇ ਨੂੰ ਚੇਤੇ ਕੀਤਾ।
25 ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਨੇ ਇਸਰਾਏਲ ਦੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਦੀਆਂ ਮੁਸੀਬਤਾਂ ਦੇਖਿਆਂ, ਅਤੇ ਉਹ ਜਾਣਦਾ ਸੀ ਕਿ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਕੀ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ।
1 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
2 And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
3 And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river’s brink.
4 And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
5 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river’s side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.
6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews’ children.
7 Then said his sister to Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
8 And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child’s mother.
9 And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
10 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.
11 And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren.
12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13 And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?
14 And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known.
15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.
16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
17 And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day?
19 And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock.
20 And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
21 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
22 And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.
23 And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
Matthew 14 in Tamil and English
1 ସହେି ସମୟରେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ବିଷୟ ରେ ଲୋକେ ଯାହା କଥାବାର୍ତ୍ତା ହେଉଥିଲେ, ତାହା ଗାଲିଲୀର ଶାସକ ହରେୋଦ ଶୁଣିଲେ।
At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
2 ସେ ତାହାଙ୍କ ଚାକରମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ, ଏହି ବ୍ଯକ୍ତି ପ୍ରକୃତ ରେ ବାପ୍ତିଜକ ଯୋହନ। ସେ ନିଶ୍ଚୟ ମୃତ୍ଯୁରୁ ପୁଣି ବଞ୍ଚି ଉଠିଛି, ସେଥିପାଇଁ ଏହି ଶକ୍ତି ଏହା ପାଖ ରେ କାମ କରୁଛି ଓ ସେ ଆଶ୍ଚର୍ୟ୍ଯ କାର୍ୟ୍ଯ କରିବାକୁ ସକ୍ଷମ ହେଉଛି।
And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.
3 ଏହି ସମୟ ପୂର୍ବରୁ େ ହରୋଦ ଯୋହନଙ୍କୁ ବନ୍ଦୀ କରି ଶିକୁଳି ରେ ବାନ୍ଧି କାରାଗାର ରେ ନିକ୍ଷପେ କରିଥିଲେ। ସେ େ ହରୋଦିଆଙ୍କ ଅନୁ ରୋଧକ୍ରମେ ଏକଥା କରିଥିଲେ। ହରେୋଦିଆ ହରେୋଦଙ୍କ ଭାଇ ଫିଲିପ୍ପଙ୍କ ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ଥିଲେ।
For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias’ sake, his brother Philip’s wife.
4 େ ହରୋଦିଆ ଯୋହନଙ୍କୁ ବନ୍ଦୀ କରିବାର କାରଣ ହେଲା, ଯୋହନ ବାରମ୍ବାର େ ହରୋଦଙ୍କୁ କହୁଥିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ େ ହରୋଦିଆଙ୍କୁ ନିଜ ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ଭାବରେ ରଖିବା ଠିକ୍ କାମ ନୁହେଁ।
For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
5 ତେଣୁ େ ହରୋଦ ଯୋହନଙ୍କୁ ମାରିଦବୋକୁ ଚାହିଁଲେ। କିନ୍ତୁ ସେ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଭୟ କରୁଥିଲେ। କାରଣ ଲୋକେ ଯୋହନଙ୍କୁ ଜଣେ ଭବିଷ୍ଯଦ୍ବକ୍ତା ବୋଲି ବିଶ୍ବାସ କରୁଥିଲେ।
And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
6 ହରେୋଦଙ୍କ ଜନ୍ମ ଦିନ ଅବସର ରେ େ ହରୋଦିଆଙ୍କ ଝିଅ, ହରେୋଦ ଓ ତାହାଙ୍କ ଅତିଥିମାନଙ୍କ ଆଗ ରେ ନାଚିଲା। ଏଥି ରେ େ ହରୋଦ ବହୁତ ମୁଗ୍ଧ ହାଇଗେଲେ।
But when Herod’s birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.
7 ତେଣୁ ସେ ଶପଥ ପୂର୍ବକ େ ହରୋଦିଆର ଝିଅକୁ ପ୍ରତିଶ୍ରୁତି ଦେଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଯାହା କିଛି ମାଗିବ, ତାହା ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଦିଆୟିବ।
Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.
8 େ ହରୋଦିଆଙ୍କ ପ୍ରରୋଚନା ରେ ଝିଅ କହିଲା, ମାେତେ ବାପ୍ତିଜକ ଯୋହନଙ୍କ ମୁଣ୍ଡ ଗୋଟିଏ ଥାଳି ରେ ଆଣି ଏହିଠା ରେ ଦିଅନ୍ତୁ।
And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist’s head in a charger.
9 ଏହା ଶୁଣି ହରେୋଦ ବହୁତ ଦୁଃଖୀ ହେଲେ। କିନ୍ତୁ ସେ ଶପଥ କରି ସାରିଥିଲେ, ଯେ ଝିଅ ଯାହା ମାଗିବ ତାହା ତାକୁ ସେ ଦବେେ। ତା' ଛଡା େ ହରୋଦଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଖାଉଥିବା ଅତିଥିମାନେ ମଧ୍ଯ ଶପଥ ଶୁଣିଥିଲେ। ତେଣୁ ହରେୋଦ ଝିଅକୁ ଯାହା କିଛି ସେ ମାଗିଥିଲେ ତାହା ଦବୋପାଇଁ ଆଦେଶ ଦେଲେ।
And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath’s sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.
10 ସେ କାରାଗାର ରେ ଯୋହନଙ୍କ ମୁଣ୍ଡକାଟ କରିବା ପାଇଁ ଲୋକ ପଠାଇଲେ।
And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.
11 ତାପରେ ଗୋଟିଏ ଥାଳି ରେ ଯୋହନଙ୍କ କଟାମୁଣ୍ଡ ଅଣାଗଲା। ତାହା ଝିଅକୁ ଦଇେ ଦିଆଗଲା। ଝିଅ କଟାମୁଣ୍ଡ ତା ମାଆ େ ହରୋଦିଆଙ୍କ ପାଖକୁ ନଇଗେଲା।
And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.
12 ଯୋହନଙ୍କ ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନେ ଆସି ଯୋହନଙ୍କ ମୃତ ଦହେ ନଇଯାେଇ ସମଧି ଦେଲେ। ତା'ପରେ ସମାନେେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ପାଖକୁ ଯାଇ ସବୁକଥା କହିଲେ।
And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.
13 ଯୀଶୁ ଯୋହନଙ୍କ ବିଷୟ ରେ ଘଟିଥିବା ସବୁକଥା ଶୁଣିସାରିବା ପରେ ସେ ସ୍ଥାନ ଛାଡି ଦେଲେ ଓ ଏକୁଟିଆ ଡଙ୍ଗା ରେ ବସି ଗୋଟିଏ ନିଛାଟିଆ ଜାଗାକୁ ଚାଲିଗଲେ। ଯୀଶୁ ଚାଲିଯାଇଥିବା ଖବର ଶୁଣି ଲୋକମାନେ ନିଜ ନଗରମାନ ଛାଡି ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ ଅନୁସରଣ କଲେ। ଯୀଶୁ ଯେଉଁଠାକୁ ଯାଉଥିଲେ, ସମାନେେ ସ୍ଥଳ ପଥରେ ଚାଲି ଚାଲି ସଠାେରେ ଯାଇ ପହନ୍ଚିଲେ।
When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities.
14 ଡଙ୍ଗାରୁ ବାହାରି ଆସିବା ବଳକେୁ ଯୀଶୁ ଦେଖିଲେ, ସଠାେରେ ବହୁତ ଲୋକ ଜମା ହାଇେଛନ୍ତି। ଲୋକଙ୍କ ଉପରେ ତାହାଙ୍କର ଦୟା ହେଲା। ସେ ଅସୁସ୍ଥ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ସୁସ୍ଥ କରିଲେ।
And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.
15 ସନ୍ଧ୍ଯା ବଳକେୁ ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନେ ତାହାଙ୍କ ପାଖକୁ ଆସି କହିଲେ, ଏହା ଅତ୍ଯନ୍ତ ନିଛାଟିଆ ସ୍ଥାନ। ସମୟ ବହୁତ ହେଲାଣି। ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଏଠାରୁ ପଠଇେ ଦିଅ। ତା' ହେଲେ ସମାନେେ ଗାଁମାନଙ୍କୁ ଯାଇ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ପାଇଁ ଖାଦ୍ୟ କିଣି ପାରିବେ।
And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.
16 କିନ୍ତୁ ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ, ସମାନଙ୍କେର ୟିବା ଦରକାର ନାହିଁ। ତୁମ୍ଭେ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କିଛି ଖାଇବାକୁ ଦିଅ।
But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.
17 ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନେ କହିଲେ, ଆମ୍ଭ ପାଖ ରେ ଏଠା ରେ ମାତ୍ର ପାଞ୍ଚଖଣ୍ଡ ରୋଟୀ ଓ ଦୁଇଟି ମାଛ ଅଛି।
And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.
18 ଯୀଶୁ କହିଲେ, ସଗେୁଡିକୁ ମାେ ପାଖକୁ ଆଣ।
He said, Bring them hither to me.
19 ଯୀଶୁ ସଠାେରେ ଜମା ହାଇେଥିବା ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଘାସ ଉପରେ ବସିୟିବାପାଇଁ କହିଲେ. ତା'ପରେ ସେ ପାଞ୍ଚଖଣ୍ଡ ରୋଟୀ ଓ ଦୁଇଟି ଯାକ ମାଛ ଧରି ଆକାଶକୁ ଚାହିଁଲେ ଓ ଖାଦ୍ୟ ପାଇଁ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କୁ ଧନ୍ଯବାଦ ଦେଲେ। ରୋଟୀକୁ ଖଣ୍ଡ ଖଣ୍ଡ କରି ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନଙ୍କ ହାତକୁ ଦେଲେ। ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନେ ଲୋକଙ୍କୁ ସେଥିରୁ ବାଣ୍ଟିଲେ।
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
20 ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକେ ତାହା ଖାଇଲେ, ଓ ସନ୍ତାଷେ ଲାଭ କଲେ। ଲୋକେ ଖାଇସାରିବା ପରେ ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନେ ବଳକା ଖାଦ୍ୟତକ ବାରଟି ଝୁଡି ରେ ଭର୍ତ୍ତି କଲେ।
And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.
21 ସଠାେରେ ପ୍ରାୟ କବଳେ ପାଞ୍ଚ ହଜାର ପୁରୁଷ ଲୋକ ଖାଇଥିଲେ। ତା'ଛଡା ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ଲୋକ ଓ ପିଲାମାନେ ମଧ୍ଯ ଖାଇଥିଲେ।
And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.
22 ତା'ପରେ ଯୀଶୁ ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନଙ୍କୁ ଡଙ୍ଗା ରେ ଚଢି ହ୍ରଦର ଅପର ପାଶର୍ବକୁ ୟିବାକୁ କହିଲେ। ଯୀଶୁ ନିଜେ ସଠାେକୁ ପରେ ଯିବେ ବୋଲି କହିଲେ।
And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
23 ତା'ପରେ ଜମା ହାଇେଥିବା ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ବିଦାୟ କରି ସେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କରିବାକୁ ଏକାକୀ ପାହାଡ ଉପରକୁ ଗଲେ। ସନ୍ଧ୍ଯା ହାଇେ ସାରିଥିଲା, ଯୀଶୁ ସଠାେରେ ଏକୁଟିଆ ଥିଲେ।
And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.
24 ସେତବେେଳକେୁ ହ୍ରଦ ଭିତ ରେ ଡଙ୍ଗା ଅନକେ ଦୂରକୁ ଚାଲିଯାଇଥିଲା। ଢେଉ ରେ ଧକ୍କା ଖାଇ ଡଙ୍ଗଟି ଟଳମଳ ହେଉଥିଲା। ଖୁବ୍ ଜାରେ ରେ ପ୍ରତିକୂଳ ପବନ ବହୁଥିଲା।
But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.
25 ଯୀଶୁ ହ୍ରଦ ଉପରେ ଚାଲିକରି ରାତ୍ରିର ଚତୁର୍ଥ ପ୍ରହର ରେ ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନଙ୍କ ପାଖ ରେ ଯାଇ ପହନ୍ଚିଲେ।
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.
26 ଶିଷ୍ଯମାନେ ତାହାଙ୍କୁ ହ୍ରଦ ଉପରେ ଚାଲିକରି ଆସୁ ଥିବାର ଦେଖି ଭୟଭୀତ ହେଲେ। ସମାନେେ କୁହାକୁହି ହେଲେ, ଏତ ଗୋଟିଏ ଭୂତ। ସମାନେେ ଭୟ ରେ ଚିତ୍କାର କଲେ।
And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
27 ସଙ୍ଗେ ସଙ୍ଗେ ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ, ସାହାସ ଧର! ମୁଁ ପରା ଆସିଛି! ଭୟ କର ନାହିଁ।
But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
28 ପିତର କହିଲେ, ପ୍ରଭୁ, ଏହା ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭେ, ତବେେ ମାେତେ ପାଣି ଉପରେ ଚାଲି ତୁମ୍ଭ ନିକଟକୁ ୟିବାକୁ ଆଦେଶ ଦିଅ।
And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
29 ଯୀଶୁ କହିଲେ, ଚାଲି ଆସ। ପିତର ଡଙ୍ଗାରୁ ବାହାରକୁ ଆସିଲେ। ସେ ପାଣି ଉପରେ ଚାଲି ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ଆଡକୁ ଗଲେ।
And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
30 ପିତର ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ଆଡକୁ ପାଣି ଉପରେ ଚାଲିକରି ଯାଉଥିବା ସମୟରେ ଜୋର୍ ରେ ପବନ ବହୁଥିଲା। ଢେଉ ଉଠୁଥିଲା। ଏହା ଦେଖି ପିତର ଭୟ କଲେ। ସେ ବୁଡି ୟିବାକୁ ଲାଗିଲେ। ସେ ପାଟି କରି ଡାକିଲେ, ପ୍ରଭୁ, ମାେତେ ରକ୍ଷା କର।
But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
31 ଯୀଶୁ ସଙ୍ଗେ ସଙ୍ଗେ ତାହାଙ୍କ ପାଖ ରେ ପହଞ୍ଚି ତାହାଙ୍କୁ ଧରି ପକାଇଲେ। ସେ ପିତରଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭର ବିଶ୍ବାସ ଅଳ୍ପ। ତୁମ୍ଭେ କାହିଁକି ସନ୍ଦହେ କଲ?
And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?
32 ଯୀଶୁ ଓ ପିତର ଡଙ୍ଗା ଉପରକୁ ଆସିୟିବା ପରେ ପବନ ବନ୍ଦ ହାଇଗେଲା।
And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
33 ଯେଉଁମାନେ ଡଙ୍ଗା ଉପରେ ଥିଲେ, ସମାନେେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ ପ୍ରମାମ କଲେ ଓ କହିଲେ, ପ୍ରକୃତ ରେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ପୁତ୍ର।
