¹अर्को दिन, येशूले परमेश्वरको राज्यको बारेमा प्रचार र सुसमाचारहरू बताउँदै गाँउ औ शहरहरू यात्रा गर्दै जानु भयो। बाह्रैजना प्रेरितहरू उहाँसंगै थिए।

¹It happened soon afterwards, that he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of the Kingdom of God. With him were the twelve,

²त्यहाँ उहाँसंग यस्ता स्त्रीहरु पनि थिए जो रोग तथा दुष्ट आत्माबाट छुटकारा भएका थिए। तिनीहरू माझ एउटी मरीयम नाउँ भएकी स्त्री पनि थिई। त्यो मग्दलिनी शहरको वासिन्दा थिई। उसकोबाट सातवटा भूतहरू निकालिएको थियो।

²and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;

³अरू पनि स्त्रीहरूः योअन्ना, चूजाकी पत्नी (होरोदको सहयोगी) सुजाना, र धेरै अरू स्त्रीहरू त्यस स्त्रीसँग थिए। ती स्त्रीहरूले येशू र उहाँको प्रेरितहरूलाई आफ्नै रूपिंया पैसा दिएर मद्दत पुर्याए। : 1-17; मर्कूस 4:1-12)

³and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others; who served them TR reads “him” instead of “them” from their possessions.

⁴येशूले यात्रा गर्नु भएको प्रत्येक शहरका मानिसहरू भेला भएर उहाँलाई घेरी रहेका थिए। उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई यो दृष्टान्त भनेः

⁴When a great multitude came together, and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable.

⁵“एकजना खेती वाला बीऊ छर्नलाई निस्कयो। जब त्यसले बीऊ छर्न थाल्यो कतिपय बीऊहरू बाटोतिर झरे। मानिसहरूले बीऊहरू टेके अनि चरा-चुरुङ्गीले ती बीऊहरू खाइदिए।

⁵ “The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.

⁶केही बीऊहरू चट्टानमा छरिए। ती बीऊहरू उम्रन थाले पनि चिसोपनको अभावले सुकी गए।

⁶ Other seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.

⁷कतिपय बीऊहरू काँढाघारीमा छरिए। ती बीऊहरू उम्रन थाले, तर पछिबाट ती काँढाहरू बढेर तिनीहरूलाई पनि बढन रोक्यो।

⁷ Other fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it, and choked it.

⁸अनि कतिपय बीऊहरू राम्रै जमीनमा परे। ती बीउहरू उम्रन लागे अनि सय गुणा धेरै अन्न दिनसक्ने भए।”

⁸ Other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit one hundred times.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

⁹चेलाहरूले उहाँलाइ प्रश्न गरे, “यो कथाको अर्थ के हो?”

⁹Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”

¹⁰येशूले भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूलाई परमेश्वरको राज्यको रहस्य जान्नलाई मौका दिइएकोछ। तर दृष्टान्तहरू म अरू मानिसहरूलाई पनि प्रयोग गर्छु कारणः तिनीहरू हेर्छन तर देख्दैनन्, अनि तिनीहरू सुन्दछन् तर बुझदैनन्। यशैया 69

¹⁰He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God, but to the rest in parables; that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’ Isaiah 6:9

¹¹यो दृष्टान्तको अर्थ के हो भनेः बीऊ परमेश्वरको वचन हो।

¹¹ Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

¹²बाटोमा झरेको बीऊहरू के भए होलान? तिनीहरू पनि परमश्वरको वचन सुन्नेहरूर जस्तै हुन् ती वचनहरू लगेर जान्छ। त्यसैले त्यस्ता मानिसहरूले वचनमा विश्वास गर्दैन्न अनि जोगिनेछन्।

¹² Those along the road are those who hear, then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.

¹³तर चट्टानमा झरेको बीऊर चाँहि के हुन्? तिनीहरू चाँहि परमेश्वरको वचनहरू सुन्नेहरू जस्तै हुन अनि खुशीसंग ग्रहण गर्छन्। तर ती मानिसहरू गहिरो हुँदैन। तिनीहरू केही समय सम्म मात्र आफ्नो विश्वासमा रहनेछ। त्यसपछि जब केही परीक्षा आउँछ, तिनीहरू विश्वास गर्न छोडछन् अनि परमेश्वरदेखि टाढा बस्छन्।

¹³ Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root, who believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.

¹⁴काँढाघारीमा झरेको बीऊहरू चाँहि के होलान? तिनीहरू पनि ती मानिसहरू जस्तै हुन् जसले परमेश्वरको वचन सुन्दछन्, तर तिनीहरू जीवनका चिन्ता, धन, सुख चैनमा परेर निसासिन्छन्। त्यसैले तिनीहरूबाट फलहरू लाग्न पाऊँदैन।

¹⁴ That which fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.

¹⁵अनि त्यो राम्रो जमीनमा परेको बीऊहरू चाँहि के होला? तिनीहरू पनि ती मानिसहरू जस्तै हुन् जसले परमेश्वरको वचनलाई असल र इमान्दार मनले सुन्छन्। तिनीहरू परमेश्वरको वचन पालन गर्दछन् अनि धैर्यसंग राम्रो फलहरू पनि फलाउँछन्।

¹⁵ That in the good ground, these are such as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and bring forth fruit with patience.

¹⁶“कुन मानिसले बत्ती बालेर भाँडाले छोप्छ? अथवा खाटमुनि राख्छ? तर त्यो मानिसले बत्ती बालेर सामदानमा नै राख्दछ। जसद्वारा आउने मानिसहरूले प्रशस्त उज्यालो पाउँदछन्।

¹⁶ “No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container, or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.

¹⁷लुकेका प्रत्येक कुराहरूनै स्पष्ट देखिनेछ अनि उज्यालोमा ल्याइनेछ।

¹⁷ For nothing is hidden, that will not be revealed; nor anything secret, that will not be known and come to light.

¹⁸यसर्थ कसरी सुन्न पर्ने हो सर्तक होऊ। जसले केही बझन सक्तछ त्यसले अरू धेरै जान्न पाउँदछ। तर जसले बुझदैन, उसकोमा जति छ त्यो पनि हराउँछ।”

¹⁸ Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”

¹⁹येशूको आमा र भाइहरू उनलाई भेट्न आए। अत्यन्तै भीड भएको कारणले तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई भेट्न गाह्रो पर्यो।

¹⁹His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.

²⁰कसैले उहाँलाई भने, “तपाईंको आमा र भाइहरू तपाईंलाई बाहिर पर्खेर उभिरहेकाछन्। तिनीहरू भेट्न चाहन्छन्।”

²⁰It was told him by some saying, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”

²¹येशूले तिनीहरू सबैलाई उत्तर दिनुभयो, “मेरा आमा र मेरा भाइहरू तिनीहरू हुन् जसले परमेश्वरको वचन सुन्दछन् अनि त्यसलाई पालन गर्दछन्।”

²¹But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God, and do it.”

²²एक दिन येशू अनि चेलाहरू एउटा डुङ्गामा चढे। उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “आऊ मसित झीलको अर्को पट्टि जाऔं।” अनि तिनीहरू हिंडन थाले।

²²Now it happened on one of those days, that he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.

²³जब तिनीहरूले डुङ्गा खियाए, येशू निदाउनुभयो। झीलमा एउटा ठूलो आँधी चल्यो। डुङ्गामा पानी भरिन थाल्यो औ तिनीहरू खतरामा पर्न गए।

²³But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.

²⁴चेलाहरू येशूकहाँ गए अनि उहाँलाई व्युँझाए। तिनीहरूले भने, “गुरूज्यु! गुरुज्यु! हामी डुब्न लाग्यौं।” येशू उठ्नु भयो। उहाँले आँधी र छालहरूलाई हकार्नु भयो। आँधी थामियो, अनि झील शान्त बन्यो।

²⁴They came to him, and awoke him, saying, “Master, master, we are dying!” He awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and it was calm. See Psalm 107:29

²⁵उहाँले चेलाहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरूको विश्वास कहाँ छ? चेलाहरू डराए अनि चकित भए। तिनहरू आपसमा कूरा गर्न लागे, “उहाँ कस्ता मानिस हुनुहुन्छ? उहाँ आँधी र छाललाई आज्ञा दिनु हुन्छ अनि तिनीहरू पनि उनको आज्ञा पालन गर्छन्।”

²⁵He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid they marveled, saying one to another, “Who is this, then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”

²⁶तिनीहरू झीलमा डुङ्गा खियाउँदै थिए। उनीहरू गालील पारीको इलाकामा पुगे जहाँ गेरासिन मानिसहरू बस्थे।

²⁶They arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.

²⁷जब येशू त्यो डुङ्गाबाट उत्रनु भयो, त्यसैबेला शहरबाट आएको एकजना मानिस उहाँलाई भेट्न आए। त्यस मानिसलाई भुत लागेको थियो। त्यस मानिसले धेरै समयदेखि लुगा लाउँदैन थियो। त्यो मानिस घरमा नबसेर चिहान घारीमा बस्थ्यो।

²⁷When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.

²⁸[This verse may not be a part of this translation]

²⁸When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”

²⁹[This verse may not be a part of this translation]

²⁹For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bands apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.

³⁰येशूले त्यसलाई सोध्नु भयो, “तिम्रो नाम के हो?” त्योस मानिसले जवाफ दियो, “लेजिअन।” त्यसले “लेजिअन” भन्यो किनभने धेरै भूतहरू ऊ भित्र पसेका छन्।

³⁰Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.

³¹ती भूतहरूले तिनीहरूलाई अन्नत अँध्यारोमा नपुराइयोस् भनी याचना गरे।

³¹They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.

³²त्यस पहाडमा एउटा ठूलो बथान सुंगुरहरू चरिरहेका थिए। ती भूतहरूले तिनीहरूलाई सुंगुरहरूमा पसाइदिनुहोस् भनी येशूलाई बिन्ती गरे अनि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई त्यसै गर्ने अनुमति दिनुभयो।

³²Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. He allowed them.

³³तब भूतहरू त्यो मानिसबाट निस्कीए अनि सुंगुरहरूमा पसे। त्यति भएपछि सुँगुरहरू पहाड र समुद्रको किनार तिर भागा-भाग गर्न लागे र सबै सुंगुरहरू पानीमा डुबे।

³³The demons came out from the man, and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake, and were drowned.

³⁴जब सुंगुर गोठालाहरूले चाल पाए, तिनीहरू पनि भागे। तिनीहरूले यो घटना त्यहाँको बस्ती र शहरमा सबैतिर सुनाए।

³⁴When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.

³⁵मानिसहरू के भयो भनेर बाहिर निस्किए। तिनीहरू येशूकहाँ आए अनि त्यहाँ त्यो मानिस जसबाट भूतहरू भागेका थिए उहाँको खुट्टामा बसिरहेको पाए। त्यो मानिसले लुगा लगाएको थियो अनि त्यसको मनस्थिति ठीकै थियो। मानिसहरू डराए।

³⁵People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

³⁶मानिसहरू जो त्यस घटना को दर्शक थिए अरू मानिसहरूलाई येशूले कसरी त्यो भूत लागेको मानिसलाई निको पार्नु भयो बताए।

³⁶Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.

³⁷गेरासेनका सबै मानिसहरूले येशूलाई त्यस ठाँउ छाडी कतै जान बिन्ती गरे। तिनीहरू खुबै डराएका थिए। अनि उहाँ एउटा डुङ्गामा चढनु भयो अनि गालीलतर्फ जानु भयो।

³⁷All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. He entered into the boat, and returned.

³⁸त्यो मानिस जसलाई उहाँले निको पार्नु भएको थियो त्यसले पनि येशूसंगै जान बिन्ती गरयो। तर येशूले यसो भन्दै त्यो मानिसलाई जान लगाउनु भयो,

³⁸But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,

³⁹“घरतिर जाऊ अनि परमेश्वर तिम्रा निम्ति जे गर्नुभयो त्यसबारे मानिसहरूलाई सुनाऊ।” त्यसपछि त्यो मानिस येशूले त्यसको निम्ति के-के गर्नुभयो सारा शहरका मानिसहरूलाई भन्दै हिड्‌यो।

³⁹ “Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.

⁴⁰येशू गालील र्फकनुभयो, मानिसहरूले उहाँलाई स्वागत गरे। सबैले उहाँका निम्ति प्रतीक्षा गरिरहेका थिए।

⁴⁰It happened, when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

⁴¹एकजना याइरस नाउँ भएको मानिस येशूकहाँ आए। याइरस सभा-घरका प्रमुख थिए। तिनले येशूको पाऊमा परेर उहाँलाई आफ्नो घरमा जानु बिन्ती गरे।

⁴¹Behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet, and begged him to come into his house,

⁴²याइरसको एउटी मात्र छोरी थिई। त्यो बाह्र र्बष पुगेकी थिई, अनि जो मर्नै लागेकी थिई। जब येशू याइरसको घरमा जानु हुँदैथ्यो, मानिसको भीडले तिनलाई वरिपरिबाट ठेलमठेल गरी रह्यो।

⁴²for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.

⁴³एकजना बाह्र र्बष देखि रक्तस्रावले पिडित एउटी आइमाई पनि त्यहाँ थिई। आफ्नो सारा जेथा वैद्यको ओखती-मूलोमा खर्च गर्दा पनि तिनलाई निको पार्ने कोही निस्केनन्।

⁴³A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians, and could not be healed by any,

⁴⁴त्यो आइमाई पछि पट्टि आएर येशूको कोटको छेउ छोई। त्यसै समयदेखि त्यसको रक्तस्त्राव बन्द भयो।

⁴⁴came behind him, and touched the fringe or, tassel of his cloak, and immediately the flow of her blood stopped.

⁴⁵अनि येशूले भन्नु भयो, “मलाई कसले छोयो?” सबैले भने कि तिनीहरू कसैले उनलाई छोएका छैनन्। पत्रुसले भने, “गुरुज्यु, मानिसहरू वरिपरि छन् अनि तिनीहरूले तपाईंलाई ठेलिरहेका छन्।”

⁴⁵Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’ ”

⁴⁶तर येशूले भन्नुभुयो, “कसैले मलाई छोयो। मैले मबाट शक्ति निस्केर गएको चाल पाएँ।”

⁴⁶But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”

⁴⁷जब त्यो आईमाईले यी कुराहरू सुनी, ऊ लुक्न सकिन, ऊ काम्दै आई अनि येशूको अघि निहुरिएर दण्डवत गरी। ती जम्मै मानिसहरूको अघि त्यस आइमाईले येशूलाई स्पर्श किन गरी अनि कसरी झट्टै आफ्नो रोगबाट मुक्त भएकी थिई बताई।

⁴⁷When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

⁴⁸येशूले त्यस आइमाईलाई भन्नु भयो, “मेरी छोरी, तिम्रो विश्वासले तिमी निको भयौ। शान्तिसंग जाऊ।”

⁴⁸He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”

⁴⁹जब येशू बात गरिरहनु भएको थियो, एकजना सभा-घरका अगुवा घरबाट आए र भने, “ तिम्री छोरी मरिसकेकी छे। अब गुरूलाई कष्ट नदेऊ। ‘ ‘

⁴⁹While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t trouble the Teacher.”

⁵⁰जब येशूले यो कूरा सुन्नु भयो। उहाँले याइरसलाई भन्नु भयो, “नडराऊ केवल विश्वास गर अनि तिम्रो छोरी निको भई हाल्नेछे।”

⁵⁰But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”

⁵¹येशू त्यो घरमा जानुभयो। उहाँले आफ्नो साथमा पत्रुस, यूहन्ना, याकूब र त्यो केटीको बाबु र आमालाई पनि लानु भयो। उहाँले अरू मानिसहरूलाई भित्र पस्न दिनु भएन।

⁵¹When he came to the house, he didn’t allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.

⁵²सबै मानिसहरू त्यो केटी मरेकोमा रूँदै शोक गरिरहेका थिए। तर येशूले भन्नुभयो, “नरोऊ त्यो मरेकी छैन, उ सुतिरहेकी छे।

⁵²All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”

⁵³मानिसहरू येशूको कुरा सुनेर हाँस्न लागे किनभने त्यो केटी मरेकी छ भनेर तिनीहरूलाई थाहा थियो।

⁵³They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.

⁵⁴तर येशूले त्यो केटीको हात समात्नु भयो अनि भन्नुभयो, “सानो छोरी, उठ!”

⁵⁴But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”

⁵⁵त्यसको प्राण फर्केर आयो, अनि त्यो जुरुक्क उठी। येशूलेभन्नु भयो, “यसलाई केही खान देऊ।”

⁵⁵Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.

⁵⁶त्यो केटीका आमा बाबूहरू छक्क परे। उहाँले यो घटनाको विषयमा तिनीहरूलाई कसैलाई नभन्नु भनी आदेश दिनु भयो।

⁵⁶Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.
