Matthew 13
1 उसी दिन यीशु घर से निकलकर झील के किनारे जा बैठा।
2 और उसके पास ऐसी बड़ी भीड़ इकट्ठी हुई कि वह नाव पर चढ़ गया, और सारी भीड़ किनारे पर खड़ी रही।
3 और उस ने उन से दृष्टान्तों में बहुत सी बातें कही, कि देखो, एक बोने वाला बीज बोने निकला।
4 बोते समय कुछ बीज मार्ग के किनारे गिरे और पक्षियों ने आकर उन्हें चुग लिया।
5 कुछ पत्थरीली भूमि पर गिरे, जहां उन्हें बहुत मिट्टी न मिली और गहरी मिट्टी न मिलने के कारण वे जल्द उग आए।
6 पर सूरज निकलने पर वे जल गए, और जड़ न पकड़ने से सूख गए।
7 कुछ झाड़ियों में गिरे, और झाड़ियों ने बढ़कर उन्हें दबा डाला।
8 पर कुछ अच्छी भूमि पर गिरे, और फल लाए, कोई सौ गुना, कोई साठ गुना, कोई तीस गुना।
9 जिस के कान हों वह सुन ले॥
10 और चेलों ने पास आकर उस से कहा, तू उन से दृष्टान्तों में क्यों बातें करता है?
11 उस ने उत्तर दिया, कि तुम को स्वर्ग के राज्य के भेदों की समझ दी गई है, पर उन को नहीं।
12 क्योंकि जिस के पास है, उसे दिया जाएगा; और उसके पास बहुत हो जाएगा; पर जिस के पास कुछ नहीं है, उस से जो कुछ उसके पास है, वह भी ले लिया जाएगा।
13 मैं उन से दृष्टान्तों में इसलिये बातें करता हूं, कि वे देखते हुए नहीं देखते; और सुनते हुए नहीं सुनते; और नहीं समझते।
14 और उन के विषय में यशायाह की यह भविष्यद्ववाणी पूरी होती है, कि तुम कानों से तो सुनोगे, पर समझोगे नहीं; और आंखों से तो देखोगे, पर तुम्हें न सूझेगा।
15 क्योंकि इन लोगों का मन मोटा हो गया है, और वे कानों से ऊंचा सुनते हैं और उन्होंने अपनी आंखें मूंद लीं हैं; कहीं ऐसा न हो कि वे आंखों से देखें, और कानों से सुनें और मन से समझें, और फिर जाएं, और मैं उन्हें चंगा करूं।
16 पर धन्य है तुम्हारी आंखें, कि वे देखती हैं; और तुम्हारे कान, कि वे सुनते हैं।
17 क्योंकि मैं तुम से सच कहता हूं, कि बहुत से भविष्यद्वक्ताओं ने और धमिर्यों ने चाहा कि जो बातें तुम देखते हो, देखें पर न देखीं; और जो बातें तुम सुनते हो, सुनें, पर न सुनीं।
18 सो तुम बोने वाले का दृष्टान्त सुनो।
19 जो कोई राज्य का वचन सुनकर नहीं समझता, उसके मन में जो कुछ बोया गया था, उसे वह दुष्ट आकर छीन ले जाता है; यह वही है, जो मार्ग के किनारे बोया गया था।
20 और जो पत्थरीली भूमि पर बोया गया, यह वह है, जो वचन सुनकर तुरन्त आनन्द के साथ मान लेता है।
21 पर अपने में जड़ न रखने के कारण वह थोड़े ही दिन का है, और जब वचन के कारण क्लेश या उपद्रव होता है, तो तुरन्त ठोकर खाता है।
22 जो झाड़ियों में बोया गया, यह वह है, जो वचन को सुनता है, पर इस संसार की चिन्ता और धन का धोखा वचन को दबाता है, और वह फल नहीं लाता।
23 जो अच्छी भूमि में बोया गया, यह वह है, जो वचन को सुनकर समझता है, और फल लाता है कोई सौ गुना, कोई साठ गुना, कोई तीस गुना।
24 उस ने उन्हें एक और दृष्टान्त दिया कि स्वर्ग का राज्य उस मनुष्य के समान है जिस ने अपने खेत में अच्छा बीज बोया।
25 पर जब लोग सो रहे थे तो उसका बैरी आकर गेहूं के बीच जंगली बीज बोकर चला गया।
26 जब अंकुर निकले और बालें लगीं, तो जंगली दाने भी दिखाई दिए।
27 इस पर गृहस्थ के दासों ने आकर उस से कहा, हे स्वामी, क्या तू ने अपने खेत में अच्छा बीज न बोया था फिर जंगली दाने के पौधे उस में कहां से आए?
28 उस ने उन से कहा, यह किसी बैरी का काम है। दासों ने उस से कहा क्या तेरी इच्छा है, कि हम जाकर उन को बटोर लें?
29 उस ने कहा, ऐसा नहीं, न हो कि जंगली दाने के पौधे बटोरते हुए उन के साथ गेहूं भी उखाड़ लो।
30 कटनी तक दोनों को एक साथ बढ़ने दो, और कटनी के समय मैं काटने वालों से कहूंगा; पहिले जंगली दाने के पौधे बटोरकर जलाने के लिये उन के गट्ठे बान्ध लो, और गेहूं को मेरे खत्ते में इकट्ठा करो॥
31 उस ने उन्हें एक और दृष्टान्त दिया; कि स्वर्ग का राज्य राई के एक दाने के समान है, जिसे किसी मनुष्य ने लेकर अपने खेत में बो दिया।
32 वह सब बीजों से छोटा तो है पर जब बढ़ जाता है तब सब साग पात से बड़ा होता है; और ऐसा पेड़ हो जाता है, कि आकाश के पक्षी आकर उस की डालियों पर बसेरा करते हैं॥
33 उस ने एक और दृष्टान्त उन्हें सुनाया; कि स्वर्ग का राज्य खमीर के समान है जिस को किसी स्त्री ने लेकर तीन पसेरी आटे में मिला दिया और होते होते वह सब खमीर हो गया॥
34 ये सब बातें यीशु ने दृष्टान्तों में लोगों से कहीं, और बिना दृष्टान्त वह उन से कुछ न कहता था।
35 कि जो वचन भविष्यद्वक्ता के द्वारा कहा गया था, वह पूरा हो कि मैं दृष्टान्त कहने को अपना मुंह खोलूंगा: मैं उन बातों को जो जगत की उत्पत्ति से गुप्त रही हैं प्रगट करूंगा॥
36 तब वह भीड़ को छोड़ कर घर में आया, और उसके चेलों ने उसके पास आकर कहा, खेत के जंगली दाने का दृष्टान्त हमें समझा दे।
37 उस ने उन को उत्तर दिया, कि अच्छे बीज का बोने वाला मनुष्य का पुत्र है।
38 खेत संसार है, अच्छा बीज राज्य के सन्तान, और जंगली बीज दुष्ट के सन्तान हैं।
39 जिस बैरी ने उन को बोया वह शैतान है; कटनी जगत का अन्त है: और काटने वाले स्वर्गदूत हैं।
40 सो जैसे जंगली दाने बटोरे जाते और जलाए जाते हैं वैसा ही जगत के अन्त में होगा।
41 मनुष्य का पुत्र अपने स्वर्गदूतों को भेजेगा, और वे उसके राज्य में से सब ठोकर के कारणों को और कुकर्म करने वालों को इकट्ठा करेंगे।
42 और उन्हें आग के कुंड में डालेंगे, वहां रोना और दांत पीसना होगा।
43 उस समय धर्मी अपने पिता के राज्य में सूर्य की नाईं चमकेंगे; जिस के कान हों वह सुन ले॥
44 स्वर्ग का राज्य खेत में छिपे हुए धन के समान है, जिसे किसी मनुष्य ने पाकर छिपा दिया, और मारे आनन्द के जाकर और अपना सब कुछ बेचकर उस खेत को मोल लिया॥
45 फिर स्वर्ग का राज्य एक व्यापारी के समान है जो अच्छे मोतियों की खोज में था।
46 जब उसे एक बहुमूल्य मोती मिला तो उस ने जाकर अपना सब कुछ बेच डाला और उसे मोल ले लिया॥
47 फिर स्वर्ग का राज्य उस बड़े जाल के समान है, जो समुद्र में डाला गया, और हर प्रकार की मछिलयों को समेट लाया।
48 और जब भर गया, तो उस को किनारे पर खींच लाए, और बैठकर अच्छी अच्छी तो बरतनों में इकट्ठा किया और निकम्मी, निकम्मीं फेंक दी।
49 जगत के अन्त में ऐसा ही होगा: स्वर्गदूत आकर दुष्टों को धमिर्यों से अलग करेंगे, और उन्हें आग के कुंड में डालेंगे।
50 वहां रोना और दांत पीसना होगा।
51 क्या तुम ने ये सब बातें समझीं?
52 उन्होंने उस से कहा, हां; उस ने उन से कहा, इसलिये हर एक शास्त्री जो स्वर्ग के राज्य का चेला बना है, उस गृहस्थ के समान है जो अपने भण्डार से नई और पुरानी वस्तुएं निकालता है॥
53 जब यीशु ये सब दृष्टान्त कह चुका, तो वहां से चला गया।
54 और अपने देश में आकर उन की सभा में उन्हें ऐसा उपदेश देने लगा; कि वे चकित होकर कहने लगे; कि इस को यह ज्ञान और सामर्थ के काम कहां से मिले?
55 क्या यह बढ़ई का बेटा नहीं? और क्या इस की माता का नाम मरियम और इस के भाइयों के नाम याकूब और यूसुफ और शमौन और यहूदा नहीं?
56 और क्या इस की सब बहिनें हमारे बीच में नहीं रहतीं? फिर इस को यह सब कहां से मिला?
57 सो उन्होंने उसके कारण ठोकर खाई, पर यीशु ने उन से कहा, भविष्यद्वक्ता अपने देश और अपने घर को छोड़ और कहीं निरादर नहीं होता।
58 और उस ने वहां उन के अविश्वास के कारण बहुत सामर्थ के काम नहीं किए॥
1 The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.
2 And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.
3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.
20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.
23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.
33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:
35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.
49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,
50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
51 Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.
52 Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
53 And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.
54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
55 Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?
57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant’s house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
3 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
8 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
9 And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
11 And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
12 And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:
13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.
14 And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the Lord will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.
15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
16 And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the Lord being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
18 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord:
19 Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:
20 Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
21 And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.
22 Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
24 Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven;
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord:
28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.
31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
35 And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
37 And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
38 And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Ben-ammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
