Exodus 34
1 ଏହାପରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ମାଶାଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ, ପ୍ରଥମ ପ୍ରସ୍ତର ଫଳକ ପରି ଆଉ ଦୁଇଟି ପ୍ରସ୍ତର ଫଳକ ତିଆରି କର। ଆଗ ପ୍ରସ୍ତର ଫଲକରେ ଯାହା ଲଖାେ ଥିଲା ଯାହା ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଚୁର୍ଣ୍ଣ କରିଛ ମୁଁ ଏହି ପ୍ରସ୍ତର ଫଳକରେ ତାହାସବୁ ଲେଖିବି।
2 ଆଉ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଆସନ୍ତାକାଲି ପ୍ରଭାତ ପାଇଁ ପ୍ରସ୍ତୁତ ହୁଅ ଏବଂ ପ୍ରଭାତ ରେ ସୀନଯ ପର୍ବତକୁ ଆସ ଏବଂ ମାେ ଉପସ୍ଥିତି ରେ ପର୍ବତର ଶୀର୍ଷ ରେ ଛିଡା ହୁଅ।
3 ତୁମ୍ଭ ସହିତ ଆଉ କୌଣସି ଲୋକ ୟିବା ଉଚିତ୍ ନୁହେଁ। ଏବଂ ଏହି ପର୍ବତ ରେ କହେି ନରହୁ, ଏପରିକି ଗୋମଷୋଦି ମଧ୍ଯ ପର୍ବତ ଚତୁଃପାଶର୍ବ ରେ ଚରିବା ଉଚିତ୍ ନୁହେଁ।
4 ତହୁଁ ମାଶାେ ପ୍ରଥମ ଫଳକ ପରି ଦୁଇଟି ଫଳକ କାଟିଲେ ଏବଂ ତାପରଦିନ ପ୍ରଭାତରୁ ସେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ଆଜ୍ଞା ଅନୁସାରେ ସୀନଯ ପର୍ବତ ଉପରକୁ ଗଲେ ଏବଂ ସହେି ପ୍ରସ୍ତର ଫଳକକୁ ନିଜ ସହିତ ନଇଗେଲେ।
5 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ମେଘ ରେ ତାଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ଓହ୍ଲାଇ ଆସିଲେ। ସଠାେରେ ତାଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଠିଆ ହାଇେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ତାଙ୍କର ନାମ ୟିହୋବା ବୋଲି ଘାଷେଣା କଲେ।
6 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ମାଶାଙ୍କେ ସମ୍ମୁଖକୁ ଆସି ଏହା ଘାଷେଣା କଲେ। ୟି ହାବୋ, ୟି ହାବୋ ଦୟାଶୀଳ ପରମେଶ୍ବର, ସେ କୋରଧ ରେ ଧିର। ସେ ଦୟାଳୁ ଓ ସତ୍ଯତା ରେ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ।
7 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ତାଙ୍କର ହଜାର ହଜାର ବଂଶଧରଙ୍କୁ ଦୟା ଦଖାଇେଛନ୍ତି। ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ସମସ୍ତ ଦୋଷ କ୍ଷମା କରିଛନ୍ତି। କିନ୍ତୁ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଦୋଷୀକୁ ଦଣ୍ଡ ଦଇେଛନ୍ତି।
8 ଏହାପରେ ମାଶାେ ତତ୍କ୍ଷଣାତ୍ ଭୂମିଷ୍ଠ ହାଇେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ଉପାସନା କରି କହିଲେ,
9 ହେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ, ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭେ ମାେ ପ୍ରତି ସଦଯ, ତବେେ ଆମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଦୟାକରି ଆସନ୍ତୁ। ମୁଁ ଜାଣେ ଏହି ଲୋକମାନେ ଶକ୍ତଗ୍ରୀବ ଲୋକ। କିନ୍ତୁ ଦୟାକରି ଆମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ପାପର କ୍ଷମା କର! ତୁମ୍ଭର ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କ ପରି ଆମ୍ଭକୁ ଗ୍ରହଣ କର।
10 ଏହାପରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ କହିଲେ, ମୁଁ ଏହି ନିଯମ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ସହିତ କରିଅଛି, ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ପ୍ରତି ଏପରି କାର୍ୟ୍ଯ କରିବି ଯେ, ପୃଥିବୀ ରେ କୌଣସି ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ ଏପରି କରାୟାଇ ନାହିଁ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଥିବା ଲୋକମାନେ ମାରେ ମହାନତା ଜାଣି ପାରିବେ ଯେ, ମୁଁ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ମହାନ। ଲୋକମାନେ ମାରେ ଆଶ୍ଚର୍ୟ୍ଯ କର୍ମମାନ ଦେଖିବେ ଯାହା ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ ମୁଁ କରିବି।
11 ଏହି ଆଜ୍ଞା ପାଳନ କର। ଯାହା ଆଜି ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଆଜ୍ଞା ଦଲେି ତାହା ଅନୁସରଣ କର ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶତୃମାନଙ୍କୁ ଏହି ଦେଶରୁ ବିତାଡିତ କରିବି। ମୁଁ କିଣାନୀଯ, ହିତ୍ତୀଯ, ପରିଷୀଯ, ହିଦ୍ଦୀଯ ଓ ୟିବୁଷୀଯ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ବିତାଡିତ କରିବି।
12 ସାବଧାନ! ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଯେଉଁ ଦେଶକୁ ଯାଉଛ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ସହିତ କୌଣସି ଚୁକ୍ତି କର ନାହିଁ। ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସହେି ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କ ସହିତ କୌଣସି ଚୁକ୍ତି କର, ତବେେ ଏହା ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ ଅସୁବିଧା ହବେ।
13 ତେଣୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ୟଜ୍ଞବଦେୀସବୁ ଧ୍ବଂସ କର। ସମାନଙ୍କେର ସ୍ତମ୍ଭସବୁ ଭାଙ୍ଗିଦିଅ। ସମାନଙ୍କେର ପବିତ୍ର କାଷ୍ଠ ସ୍ତମ୍ଭ ସବୁକାଟି ପକାଇବ।
14 ଅନ୍ୟ କୌଣସି ଦବେତାଙ୍କର ଉପାସନା କର ନାହିଁ, କାରଣ ମାରେ ନାମ ୟିହୋବା, ସ୍ବଗୌରବ ରକ୍ଷଣ ରେ ଉଦ୍ ଯୋଗୀ, ମୁଁ ସ୍ବ ଗୌରବ ରକ୍ଷଣ ରେ ଉଦ୍ୟୋଗୀ ପରମେଶ୍ବର।
15 ସାବଧାନ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଯେଉଁ ଦେଶ ରେ ବାସ କରିବ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ସହିତ କୌଣସି ଚୁକ୍ତି କରିବ ନାହିଁ। ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଏପରି କର,, ତବେେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ଦବଗେଣମାନଙ୍କର ଅନୁଚର ଦବେ। କିମ୍ବା ସମାନେେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ନିମନ୍ତ୍ରଣ କଲେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ସହିତ ୟୋଗ ଦବେ। ତୁମ୍ଭେ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ବଳିଦାନ ଭକ୍ଷଣ କରିବ।
16 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସମାନଙ୍କେର କନ୍ଯାମାନଙ୍କୁ ଗ୍ରହଣ କରିପାର। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପୁତ୍ରମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ, ତାଙ୍କର କନ୍ଯାଗଣ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ଦବଗେଣମାନଙ୍କର ଅନୁଗାମୀ ହାଇେଥିବେ। ସମାନେେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ବା ତୁମ୍ଭର ପୁତ୍ରମାନଙ୍କୁ ତାଙ୍କ ଦବେତାମାନଙ୍କର ଅନୁଗାମୀ କରାଇ ପାରନ୍ତି।
17 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ କୌଣସି ଛାଞ୍ଚ ରେ ଢଳା ଦବେତା ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ କର ନାହିଁ।
18 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେ ତାଡିଶୂନ୍ଯ ରୋଟୀର ପର୍ବ ପାଳନ କର। ପୁଣି ଆବୀବ୍ ମାସର ଯେଉଁ ସମୟରେ ଯେଉଁପରି କରିବାକୁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ଆଜ୍ଞା ଦଇେଅଛୁ। ସହେିରୁପେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସାତଦିନ ତାଡିଶୁନ୍ଯ ରୋଟୀ ଖାଇବ। କାରଣ ସହେି ଆବୀବ୍ ମାସ ରେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ମିଶର ଦେଶରୁ ବାହାର ହାଇେ ଆସିଥିଲ।
19 କୌଣସି ସ୍ତ୍ରୀର ପ୍ରଥମ ସନ୍ତାନ ମାରେ। ଏପରିକି ଗୋମଷୋଦି ପଲର ପ୍ରଥମଜାତ ସନ୍ତାନ ମାରେ।
20 ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଏକ ପ୍ରଥମଜାତ ଗଧକୁ ରଖିବାକୁ ଚାହୁଁଛ, ତବେେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଏକ ମଷେ ବଦଳ ରେ ତାହା କ୍ରଯ କରିପାରିବ। କିନ୍ତୁ ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭେ ମଷେ ବଦଳ ରେ ତାହା କ୍ରଯ ନକର, ତବେେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ସହେି ଗଧର ବକେ ଭାଙ୍ଗିବ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ସମସ୍ତ ପ୍ରଥମଜାତ ପୁତ୍ରମାନଙ୍କୁ ମୁକ୍ତ କରିପାରିବ। କୌଣସି ବ୍ଯକ୍ତି ବିନା ଉପହାର ରେ ମାେ ପାଖକୁ ଆସିବ ନାହିଁ।
21 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଛଅଦିନ କାମ କରିବ। କିନ୍ତୁ ସପ୍ତମ ଦିନ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ବିଶ୍ରାମ ନବେ। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଏପରିକି ଶସ୍ଯ ବୁଣା ଏବଂ ଶସ୍ଯ ଅମଳ ସମୟରେ ଏହି ନିଯମ ପାଳନ କରିବ।
22 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସପ୍ତାହର ପର୍ବ ପ୍ରଥମ ଗହମ କଟା ପର୍ବ ଓ ବର୍ଷର ଶଷେ ଭାଗ ରେ ଶସ୍ଯ ଅମଳର ପର୍ବ ପାଳନ କରିବା ଉଚିତ୍।
23 ତନିଥର ପ୍ରେତ୍ୟକକ ବର୍ଷ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ସମସ୍ତ ପୁରୁଷ ପ୍ରଭୁ, ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ଛାମୁ ରେ ଉପସ୍ଥିତ ହବେ।
24 ଯେତବେେଳେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଦେଶକୁ ୟାଅ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶତୃମାନଙ୍କୁ ସଠାରୁେ ତଡି ଦବେି। ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ସୀମା ବୃଦ୍ଧି କରିବି। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଅଧିକରୁ ଅଧିକ ଭୂମି ପାଇବ। କୌଣସି ଲୋକ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କଠାରୁ ଏହି ଭୂମି ନଇେ ପାରିବି ନାହିଁ। ଯେତବେେଳେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ବର୍ଷ ରେ ତିନିଥର ତୁମ୍ଭର ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କୁ ଦର୍ଶନ କରିବା ପାଇଁ ୟିବ।
25 ଯେତବେେଳେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଆମ୍ଭକୁ ବଳିଦାନର ରକ୍ତ ଉତ୍ସର୍ଗ କରିବ ସେ ସମୟରେ ତାଡ଼ିୟୁକ୍ତ ଦ୍ରବ୍ଯ ଆମ୍ଭକୁ ଉତ୍ସର୍ଗ କରିବ ନାହିଁ।
26 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପ୍ରଥମ ଶସ୍ଯ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କୁ ଉତ୍ସର୍ଗ କରିବ। ସହେି ସବୁକୁ ପ୍ରଥମେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ତୁମ୍ଭର ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ଗୃହକୁ ଆଣିବେ।
27 ଏହାପରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ମାଶାଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ, ଏ ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋଖ ଯାହା ଆମ୍ଭେ ସବୁ କହିଲୁ। ଏହି ଚୁକ୍ତି ଆମ୍ଭେ ତୁମ୍ଭ ସହିତ ଏବଂ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲୀୟ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କ ସହିତ କଲୁ।
28 ମାଶାେ ସଠାେରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଚାଳିଶ ଦିନ ଓ ଚାଳିଶ ରାତି ରହିଲେ. ମାଶାେ କୌଣସି ଖାଦ୍ୟ କିମ୍ବା ପାନୀଯ ସଠାେରେ ଗ୍ରହଣ କଲେ ନାହିଁ। ଏବଂ ସେ ଚୁକ୍ତିର ବାକ୍ଯସବୁ ସହେି ଦଶଆଜ୍ଞା ପ୍ରସ୍ତର ଫଳକରେ ଖୋଦିତ କଲେ।
29 ଏହାପରେ ମାଶାେ ସୀନଯ ପର୍ବତ ଉପରୁ ତଳକୁ ଓହ୍ଲାଇଲେ। ସେ ସହେି ଦୁଇଟି ପ୍ରସ୍ତର ଫଳକ ଚୁକ୍ତି ସାଙ୍ଗ ରେ ନଇେ ଆସିଥିଲେ। ମାଶାଙ୍କେର ମୁଖ ଉଜ୍ଜଳ ଦିଶୁଥିଲା କାରଣ ସେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ସହିତ କଥୋପକଥନ କରିଥିଲେ, କିନ୍ତୁ ମାଶାଙ୍କେୁ ଏହା ଜଣା ନଥିଲା।
30 ହାରୋଣ ଏବଂ ସମସ୍ତ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲୀୟ ଲୋକମାନେ ଦେଖିଲେ ମାଶାଙ୍କେର ମୁଖ ଅତି ଉଜ୍ଜଳ ଦିଶୁଛି। ତେଣୁ ସମାନେେ ତାଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ୟିବାକୁ ଭୟ କଲେ।
31 କିନ୍ତୁ ମାଶାେ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ ନିକଟକୁ ଡାକିଲେ। ତେଣୁ ହାରୋଣ ଏବଂ ସମସ୍ତ ଅଧ୍ଯକ୍ଷଗଣ ମାଶାଙ୍କେ ନିକଟକୁ ଗଲେ। ମାଶାେ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ସହିତ କଥୋପକଥନ ହେଲେ।
32 ଏହାପରେ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକେ ମାଶାଙ୍କେ ନିକଟକୁ ଆସିଲେ। ଏହାପରେ ମାଶାେ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ନିର୍ଦ୍ଦେଶ ଦେଲେ ଯାହା ସୀନଯ ପର୍ବତ ରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ମାଶାଙ୍କେୁ କହିଥିଲେ।
33 ମାଶାେ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିସାରିବା ପରେ ତାଙ୍କର ମୁହଁ ଆବରଣ କରି ଦେଲେ।
34 ଯେତବେେଳେ ମାଶାେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ସହିତ କଥା ହବୋକୁ ଭିତରକୁ ଗଲେ। ସେ ଓଢଣୀକୁ ହଟାଇଲେ, ତାପରେ ସେ ବାହାରି ଆସିଲେ ଏବଂ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଯାହା ଆଜ୍ଞା ଦଇେଥିଲେ, ତାହା ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ।
35 ଲୋକମାନେ ଦେଖି ପାରିଲେ ଯେ ମାଶାଙ୍କେର ମୁଖ ଉଜ୍ଜଳ ଦିଶୁଛି। ତେଣୁ ମାଶାେ ତାଙ୍କର ମୁହଁ ରେ ଆବରଣ ଦେଲେ। ମାଶାେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ସହିତ ପୁନ୍ନରାଯ କଥା ହବୋ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ତାଙ୍କର ମୁହଁ ଆବରଣ କରି ରଖିଲେ।
1 And the Lord said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou brakest.
2 And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me in the top of the mount.
3 And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.
4 And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.
5 And the Lord descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord.
6 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,
7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.
8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.
9 And he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance.
10 And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the Lord: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.
11 Observe thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
12 Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:
13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:
14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
15 Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;
16 And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.
17 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
18 The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.
19 All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male.
20 But the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.
21 Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
22 And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year’s end.
23 Thrice in the year shall all your men children appear before the Lord God, the God of Israel.
24 For I will cast out the nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou shalt go up to appear before the Lord thy God thrice in the year.
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.
26 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk.
27 And the Lord said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.
28 And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
29 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses’ hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him.
30 And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him.
31 And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moses talked with them.
32 And afterward all the children of Israel came nigh: and he gave them in commandment all that the Lord had spoken with him in mount Sinai.
33 And till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face.
34 But when Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he took the vail off, until he came out. And he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded.
35 And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses’ face shone: and Moses put the vail upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
Acts 14 in Tamil and English
1 ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਇੱਕੋਨਿਯੁਮ ਵਿੱਚ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਤਦ ਇੱਕੋਦਿਯਾਮ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਹੁੰਚੇ। ਉੱਥੇ ਉਹ ਯਹੂਦੀਆਂ ਦੇ ਪ੍ਰਾਰਥਨਾ ਸਥਾਨ ਤੇ ਪਹੁੰਚੇ ਉਹ ਹਰ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਜਾਕੇ ਇਵੇਂ ਹੀ ਕਰਦੇ ਸਨ। ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਇੰਨਾ ਵੱਧੀਆ ਬਚਨ ਕੀਤਾ ਕਿ ਯਹੂਦੀਆਂ ਅਤੇ ਯੂਨਾਨੀਆਂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਉੱਪਰ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ ਕੀਤਾ।
And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.
2 ਪਰ ਕੁਝ ਯਹੂਦੀ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੇ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ ਨਾ ਕੀਤਾ, ਅਤੇ ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੇ ਗੈਰ-ਯਹੂਦੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਭੜਕਾਇਆ ਅਤੇ ਨਿਹਚਾਵਾਨਾਂ ਬਾਰੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਮਨਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਜ਼ਹਿਰ ਭਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ।
But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.
3 ਇਸ ਦੇ ਬਾਵਜੂਦ, ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਬਹੁਤ ਦਿਨਾ ਲਈ ਇੱਕੋਨਿਯੁਮ ਵਿੱਚ ਰੁਕੇ ਅਤੇ ਨਿਰਭੈ ਹੋਕੇ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਬਾਰੇ ਬੋਲੇ। ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਦੀ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਬਾਰੇ ਪ੍ਰਚਾਰ ਕੀਤਾ। ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਸੰਦੇਸ਼ ਨੂੰ ਕਰਾਮਾਤੀ ਨਿਸ਼ਾਨ ਅਤੇ ਅਚੰਭੇ ਕਰਨ ਦੀ ਯੋਗਤਾ ਦੇਕੇ ਸਾਬਤ ਕੀਤਾ।
Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 ਪਰ ਨਗਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਦਾ ਬਟਵਾਰਾ ਹੋ ਗਿਆ। ਕੁਝ ਲੋਕ ਯਹੂਦੀਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਸਹਿਮਤ ਹੋਣ ਲੱਗੇ ਅਤੇ ਕੁਝ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਨੂੰ ਮੰਨਣ ਲੱਗੇ।
But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.
5 ਕੁਝ ਗੈਰ-ਯਹੂਦੀਆਂ, ਕੁਝ ਯਹੂਦੀਆਂ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਆਗੂਆਂ ਨੇ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਨੂੰ ਨੁਕਸਾਨ ਪਹੁੰਚਾਉਣ ਦੀ ਕੋਸ਼ਿਸ਼ ਕੀਤੀ ਇਹ ਲੋਕ ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪੱਥਰਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਮਾਰ ਮੁਕਾਉਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੇ ਸਨ।
And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,
6 ਜਦੋਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਇਸ ਬਾਰੇ ਪਤਾ ਲੱਗਾ, ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਨਗਰ ਛੱਡ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਲੁਕਾਉਨਿਯਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਲੁਸਤ੍ਰਾ ਅਤੇ ਦਰਬੇ ਸ਼ਹਿਰਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਦੇ ਆਸ-ਪਾਸ ਦੇ ਇਲਾਕਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਚੱਲੇ ਗਏ।
They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:
7 ਉੱਥੇ ਜਾਕੇ ਇਹ ਖੁਸ਼ਖਬਰੀ ਬਾਰੇ ਪਰਚਾਰ ਕਰਦੇ ਰਹੇ।
And there they preached the gospel.
8 ਪੌਲੁਸ-ਲੁਸਤ੍ਰਾ ਅਤੇ ਦਰਬੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਲੁਸਤ੍ਰਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਇੱਕ ਆਦਮੀ ਸੀ ਜਿਸਦੇ ਪੈਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਕੋਈ ਤਕਲੀਫ਼ ਸੀ। ਉਹ ਜਮਾਂਦਰੂ ਹੀ ਲੰਗੜਾ ਸੀ, ਉਸ ਨੇ ਕਦੇ ਚੱਲ ਕੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਸੀ ਵੇਖਿਆ।
And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked:
9 ਇਹ ਆਦਮੀ ਉੱਥੇ ਬੈਠਾ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਦੇ ਬਚਨ ਸੁਣ ਰਿਹਾ ਸੀ ਤਾਂ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਨੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਵੇਖਿਆ ਤੇ ਮਹਿਸੂਸ ਕੀਤਾ ਕਿ ਉਸ ਆਦਮੀ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਰਾਜ਼ੀ ਕਰ ਸੱਕਦਾ ਹੈ
The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,
10 ਇਸ ਲਈ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਉੱਚੀ ਬੋਲਿਆ, “ਆਪਣੇ ਪੈਰਾਂ ਤੇ ਖਲੋ ਜਾ।” ਉਹ ਆਦਮੀ ਉੱਥੋਂ ਕੁਦਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਆਸ-ਪਾਸ ਚੱਲਣਾ ਸ਼ੁਰੂ ਕਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ।
Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.
11 ਜਦੋਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੇ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਨੂੰ ਅਜਿਹਾ ਕਰਦਿਆਂ ਵੇਖਿਆ ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਲੁਕਾਉਣਿਯਾ ਦੀ ਆਪਣੀ ਭਾਸ਼ਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਚਿਲਾਉਣ ਲੱਗੇ, “ਦੇਵਤੇ ਮਾਨਵ ਦਾ ਰੂਪ ਧਾਰਕੇ ਸਾਡੇ ਕੋਲ ਆਏ ਹਨ।”
And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.
12 ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਨੂੰ ਦਿਓਸ ਅਤੇ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਨੂੰ “ਹਰਮੇਸ” ਨਾਉਂ ਨਾਲ ਬੁਲਾਉਣਾ ਸ਼ੁਰੂ ਕੀਤਾ ਇਸ ਲਈ ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਇਹ ਬਚਨ ਕਰਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਆਗੂ ਸੀ।
And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.
13 ਦਿਓਸ ਦਾ ਮੰਦਰ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਦੇ ਕੋਲ ਹੀ ਸੀ। ਇਸ ਮੰਦਰ ਦਾ ਜਾਜਕ ਕੁਝ ਬਲਦ ਅਤੇ ਫ਼ੁੱਲ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਦੇ ਫ਼ਾਟਕਾਂ ਤੇ ਲਿਆਇਆ। ਉਹ ਲੋਕ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਨੂੰ ਬਲੀਆਂ ਦੇਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੇ ਸਨ।
Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.
14 ਪਰ ਜਦੋਂ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਰਸੂਲਾਂ ਨੇ ਇਹ ਸੁਣਿਆ ਤਾਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਆਪਣੇ ਵਸਤਰ ਪਾੜੇ ਅਤੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਬਾਹਰ ਨੂੰ ਦੌੜ ਪਏ ਅਤੇ ਉੱਚੀ-ਉੱਚੀ ਚਿਲਾਉਣ ਲੱਗ ਪਏ,
Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,
15 “ਹੇ ਪੁਰੱਖੋ। ਤੁਸੀਂ ਇਹ ਕਿਉਂ ਕਰ ਰਹੇ ਹੋ? ਅਸੀਂ ਦੇਵਤੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਹਾਂ। ਅਸੀਂ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਹੀ ਵਰਗੇ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਹਾਂ। ਅਸੀਂ ਇੱਥੇ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਖੁਸ਼ਖਬਰੀ ਦੱਸਣ ਆਏ ਹਾਂ ਕਿ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਵਿਅਰਥ ਗੱਲਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਜਿਉਂਦੇ ਸੱਚੇ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਵੱਲ ਪਰਤਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਹੀ ਹੈ ਜਿਸਨੇ ਅਕਾਸ਼ ਸਿਰਜਿਆ ਹੈ, ਧਰਤੀ, ਸਮੁੰਦਰ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਸਾਰੀ ਸ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਜੀਵਨ ਸਿਰਜਿਆ ਹੈ।
And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:
16 “ਪਿੱਛਲੇ ਸਮਿਆਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਨੇ ਕੌਮਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਉਹ ਕਰਨ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਜੋ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਚਾਹਾ।
Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.
17 ਪਰ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਨੇ ਉਹ ਕਾਰਜ ਕੀਤੇ ਜੋ ਦਿਖਾਉਂਦੇ ਹਨ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਮੌਜੂਦ ਹੈ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਲਈ ਹਮੇਸ਼ਾ ਚੰਗੀਆਂ ਗੱਲਾਂ ਕੀਤੀਆਂ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਅਕਾਸ਼ ਤੋਂ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਲਈ ਬਰੱਖਾ ਕੀਤੀ ਅਤੇ ਸਹੀ ਵਕਤ ਤੇ ਫ਼ਸਲਾਂ ਦਿੱਤੀਆਂ। ਉਹ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਖਾਣ ਲਈ ਬੇਸ਼ੁਮਾਰ ਅਨਾਜ ਦਿੰਦਾ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਦਿਲ ਖੁਸ਼ੀਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਭਰਪੂਰ ਰੱਖਦਾ ਹੈ।”
Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
18 ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਇਹ ਗੱਲਾਂ ਕਹੀਆਂ, ਪਰ ਉਹ ਬੜੀ ਮੁਸ਼ਕਿਲ ਨਾਲ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲਈ ਬਲੀਆਂ ਦੇਣ ਤੋਂ ਰੋਕ ਸੱਕੇ।
And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.
19 ਫ਼ਿਰ ਕੁਝ ਯਹੂਦੀ ਅੰਤਾਕਿਯਾ ਅਤੇ ਇੱਕੁਨਿਯੁਮ ਤੋਂ ਆਏ, ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਦੇ ਵਿਰੁੱਧ ਹੋ ਜਾਣ ਲਈ ਉਕਸਾਇਆ। ਇਸ ਲਈ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਤੇ ਪੱਥਰਾਵ ਕੀਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਇਹ ਸੋਚ ਕੇ ਧੂਹ ਕੇ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਤੋਂ ਬਾਹਰ ਸੁੱਟ ਦਿੱਤਾ, ਕਿ ਉਹ ਮਰ ਗਿਆ ਸੀ।
And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.
20 ਯਿਸੂ ਦੇ ਚੇਲੇ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਦੇ ਆਸ-ਪਾਸ ਇੱਕਤਰ ਹੋਏ, ਉਹ ਉੱਠਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਨਗਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਵਾਪਸ ਚੱਲਿਆ ਗਿਆ। ਅਗਲੇ ਦਿਨ ਉਹ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਦਰਬੇ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਚੱਲੇ ਗਏ।
Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.
21 ਅੰਤਾਕਿਯਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਰਤਣਾ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਨੇ ਦਰਬੇ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਵੀ ਖੁਸ਼ਖਬਰੀ ਦਾ ਪਰਚਾਰ ਕੀਤਾ। ਬਹੁਤ ਸਾਰੇ ਲੋਕ ਇੱਥੇ ਯਿਸੂ ਦੇ ਚੇਲੇ ਬਣ ਗਏ। ਉਹ ਦੋਨੋਂ ਲੁਸਤ੍ਰਾ, ਇੱਕੁਨਿਯੁਮ ਅਤੇ ਅੰਤਾਕਿਯਾ ਨੂੰ ਪਰਤੇ।
And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,
22 ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਸ਼ਹਿਰਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਨੇ ਯਿਸੂ ਦੇ ਚੇਲਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਤਕੜੇ ਬਣਾਇਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਰਹਿਣ ਬਾਰੇ ਸਮਝਾਇਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਸਾਨੂੰ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਦੇ ਰਾਜ ਵਿੱਚ ਪ੍ਰਵੇਸ਼ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਅਨੇਕਾਂ ਮੁਸ਼ਕਲਾਂ ਦਾ ਸਾਹਮਣਾ ਕਰਨਾ ਪਵੇਗਾ।”
Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
23 ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਹਰੇਕ ਕਲੀਸਿਯਾ ਲਈ ਬਜ਼ੁਰਗਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਨਿਯੁਕਤ ਕੀਤਾ। ਵਰਤ ਅਤੇ ਪ੍ਰਾਰਥਨਾ ਨਾਲ, ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਨੂੰ ਸੌਂਪ ਦਿੱਤਾ, ਜਿਸਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਭਰੋਸਾ ਕੀਤਾ।
And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.
24 ਤਦ ਉਹ ਦੋਨੋਂ ਪਿਸਿਦਿਯਾ ਦੇਸ਼ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਦੀ ਲੰਘੇ ਅਤੇ ਪੰਫ਼ਲਿਯਾ ਦੇਸ਼ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਹੁੰਚੇ।
And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
25 ਫ਼ਿਰ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਦਾ ਸੰਦੇਸ਼ ਪਰਗਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਸਤੋਂ ਬਾਅਦ ਉਹ ਅੰਤਾਕਿਯਾ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਵੱਲ ਗਏ।
And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:
26 ਉੱਥੋਂ ਤੋਂ, ਜਹਾਜ਼ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਉਹ ਦੋਨੋਂ ਅੰਤਾਕਿਯਾ ਨੂੰ ਗਏ। ਇਹ ਉਹੀ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਸੀ ਜਿੱਥੇ ਨਿਹਚਾਵਾਨਾਂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਦੀ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਨੂੰ ਸੌਂਪ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਇਹ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਭੇਜ ਦਿੱਤਾ। ਹੁਣ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਹੋਇਆ ਕੰਮ ਪੂਰਨ ਕਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਸੀ।
And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.
27 ਜਦੋਂ ਉੱਥੇ ਦੋਨੋਂ ਪਹੁੰਚੇ, ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਕਲੀਸਿਯਾ ਨੂੰ ਇਕੱਠੇ ਕੀਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਉਹ ਗੱਲਾਂ ਦੱਸੀਆਂ ਜਿਹੜੀਆਂ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਕੀਤੀਆਂ ਸਨ। ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਨੇ ਦਰਵਾਜ਼ਾ ਖੋਲ੍ਹਿਆ ਹੈ ਤਾਂ ਜੋ ਗੈਰ ਕੌਮਾਂ ਦੇ ਲੋਕ ਵੀ ਨਿਹਚਾ ਕਰ ਸੱਕਣ।”
And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.
28 ਉੱਥੇ ਪੌਲੁਸ ਅਤੇ ਬਰਨਬਾਸ ਮਸੀਹ ਦੇ ਚੇਲਿਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਬਹੁਤ ਦਿਨ ਰਹੇ।
And there they abode long time with the disciples.
