1 ଯୀଶୁ ପବିତ୍ର ଆତ୍ମା ରେ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ ହାଇେ ୟର୍ଦ୍ଦନ ନଦୀରୁ ବାହୁଡି ଆସିଲେ। ଆତ୍ମା ତାହାଙ୍କୁ ମରୁଭୂମିକୁ କଢାଇ ନଇଗେଲେ।
2 ସଠାେରେ ଶୟତାନ ଚାଳିଶ ଦିନ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ତାହାଙ୍କର ପରୀକ୍ଷା ନଲୋ। ସହେି ଦିନମାନଙ୍କ ରେ ଯୀଶୁ କିଛି ନଖାଇ ନପିଇ ରହିଲେ। ସହେି ଦିନତକ ସରିୟିବା ପରେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ ବଡ ଭୋକ ଲାଗିଲା।
3 ଶୟତାନ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ କହିଲା, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଯଦି ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ସନ୍ତାନ ତବେେ ଏହି ପଥରଟିକୁ କୁହ, ସେ ରୋଟୀ ହାଇଯୋଉ।
4 ଏହାଶୁଣି ଯୀଶୁ ତାହାକୁ ଉତ୍ତର ଦେଲେ,
5 ତା'ପରେ ଶୟତାନ ତାହାଙ୍କୁ ବହୁତ ଉପରକୁ ନଇଯାେଇ କ୍ଷଣକ ମଧିଅରେ ସାରା ସଂସାରର ସମସ୍ତ ରାଜ୍ଯ ଦଖାଇେ ଦଲୋ।
6 ଶୟତାନ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ କହିଲା, ମୁଁ ଏହିସବୁ ରାଜ୍ଯ ଏବଂ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ସମସ୍ତ କ୍ଷମତା ବିଭବ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଦଇେ ଦବେି। ସଗେୁଡିକୁ ମାେତେ ଦିଆ ଯାଇଛି। ମୁଁ ଯାହାକୁ ଚାହିଁବି, ତାହାକୁ ଏ ସମସ୍ତ ଦଇପୋରିବି।
7 ତବେେ ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭେ ମାେତେ ଉପାସନା କରିବ, ତବେେ ମୁଁ ଏସବୁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଦଇେ ଦବେି।
8 ଯୀଶୁ ଉତ୍ତର ଦେଲେ, ଶାସ୍ତ୍ର ରେ ଲଖାେଅଛି:
9 ତା'ପରେ ସେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ ୟିରୁଶାଲମେକୁ ନଇଗେଲା ଓ ସଠାେରେ ମନ୍ଦିରର ଶିଖର ରେ ଠିଆ କରାଇ ଦଲୋ। ସେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ କହିଲା, ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭେ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ପୁତ୍ର, ତବେେ ଏହିଠାରୁ ତଳକୁ ଡଇେଁପଡ।
10 ଶାସ୍ତ୍ର ରେ ଲଖାେଅଛି:
11 ଏହା ମଧ୍ଯ ଲଖାେଅଛି:
12 ଯୀଶୁ କହିଲେ, ଶାସ୍ତ୍ର ରେ ଏ କଥା ମଧ୍ଯ ଲଖାେଅଛି:
13 ଶୟତାନ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କର ସବୁ ପ୍ରକାର ପରୀକ୍ଷା ନଇେ ସାରିଲା। ଆଉ ଟିକିଏ ଭଲ ସୁଯୋଗ ଆସିବା ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ଅପେକ୍ଷା କରିବାକୁ ସେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ ଛାଡି ଚାଲିଗଲା।
14 ପବିତ୍ର ଆତ୍ମାଙ୍କ ଦ୍ବାରା ଶକ୍ତି ପାଇ ଯୀଶୁ ଗାଲିଲୀକୁ ଫରେିଗଲେ। ଗାଲିଲୀର ଚାରିଆଡେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ବିଷୟ ରେ ଖବର ବ୍ଯାପିଗଲା।
15 ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ସମାଜଗୃହମାନଙ୍କ ରେ ଉପଦେଶ ଦବୋ ଆରମ୍ଭ କଲେ। ସମସ୍ତେ ତାହାଙ୍କର ପ୍ରଶଂସା କରୁଥିଲେ।
16 ତା'ପରେ ସେ ନାଜରିତକୁ ଆସିଲେ। ନାଜରିତ ରେ ସେ ପ୍ରତିପାଳିତ ହାଇେଥିଲେ। ସବୁଥର ଭଳି ସେ ବିଶ୍ରାମଦିନ ଯିହୂଦୀ ସମାଜଗୃହକୁ ଗଲେ। ସେ ପାଠ କରିବା ପାଇଁ ଠିଆ ହେଲେ।
17 ଭବିଷ୍ଯଦ୍ବକ୍ତା ୟିଶାୟଙ୍କ ପୁସ୍ତକ ତାହାଙ୍କୁ ଦିଆଯାଇଥିଲା। ଯୀଶୁ ପୁସ୍ତକ ଖାଲିେ ଯେଉଁ ଜାଗା ରେ ଏହା ଲଖାେଥିଲା, ତାହା ପାଇଲେ:
18 ପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ଆତ୍ମା ମାେ' ଠା ରେ ଅଛି। ଦୀନହୀନ ଲୋକଙ୍କ ନିକଟରେ ସୁସମାଚାର ପ୍ରଚାର କରିବା ପାଇଁ ପରମେଶ୍ବର ମାେତେ ବାଛିଛନ୍ତି। ବନ୍ଦୀମାନେ ଯେ ମୁକ୍ତ ହାଇେ ପାରିଛନ୍ତି, ଏହା ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ ଶୁଣାଇବା ପାଇଁ ଅନ୍ଧମାନେ ପୁଣି ଦେଖିପାରିବେ ବୋଲି ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କହିବା ପାଇଁ, ଦୁଃଖ ଦୁର୍ଦ୍ଦଶାଗ୍ରସ୍ତ ଲୋକଙ୍କ ଦୁଃଖ ଦୂର କରିଦବୋକୁ
19 ଓ ପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ଅନୁଗ୍ରହର ସମୟ ଘାଷେଣା କରିବାକୁ ପ୍ରଭୁ ମାେତେ ପଠାଇଛନ୍ତି। ୟିଶାଇୟ 61:1-2
20 ଯୀଶୁ ପୁସ୍ତକ ବନ୍ଦ କରି ସବେକଙ୍କୁ ଫରୋଇ ଦେଲେ। ତାପରେ ସେ ବସି ପଡିଲେ। ସମାଜଗୃହ ରେ ଥିବା ପ୍ରେତ୍ୟକକ ଲୋକର ଲକ୍ଷ୍ଯ ତାହାଙ୍କ ଉପରେ ଥିଲା।
21 ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ, ମୁଁ ପୁସ୍ତକରୁ ଯେଉଁ ଅଂଶ ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ପାଠକଲା, ତାହା ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଶୁଣିଲା ବେଳେ ଶାସ୍ତ୍ର ରେ ଏହି ବାକ୍ଯ ଏବେ ସଫଳ ହେଲା।
22 ପ୍ରେତ୍ୟକକ ଲୋକ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ ପ୍ରଶଂସା କରିବାକୁ ଲାଗିଲେ। ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ମୁହଁରୁ ଯେଉଁ ସୁନ୍ଦର ବାକ୍ଯ ବାହାରି ଆସୁଥିଲା, ସେଥି ରେ ସମସ୍ତେ ବିସ୍ମିତ ହାଇେ ଯାଉଥିଲେ। ସମାନେେ କହୁଥିଲେ, ଏ କ'ଣ ୟୋ ସଫଙ୍କେ ପୁଅ ନୁହେଁ?
23 ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ, ମୁଁ ଜାଣିଛି ଯେ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାେତେ ସହେି ପୁରୁଣା ଉକ୍ତିଟି କହିବ, 'ଆ ରେ ବଇଦ, ଆଗ ନିଜକୁ ଭଲ କର।' ତୁମ୍ଭେ କହିବିକୁ ଚାହୁଁଛ, କଫର୍ନାହୂମ ରେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଯାହା ସବୁ କରୁଛ ବୋଲି ଆମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଶୁଣିଛୁ, ସହେିସବୁ ଏବେ ନିଜ ପୈତୃକ ନଗର ରେ ମଧ୍ଯ କର।
24 ତା'ପରେ ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ, ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ସତ୍ଯ କହୁଛି ଯେ, କୌଣସି ଭବିଷ୍ଯଦ୍ବକ୍ତାକୁ ନିଜ ନଗର ରେ ଗ୍ରହଣ କରାଯାଏ ନାହିଁ।
25 ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ସତ୍ଯ କହୁଛି, ଏଲିୟଙ୍କ ସମୟରେ ଇସ୍ରାଯଲେ ରେ ଯେତବେେଳେ ତିନି ବର୍ଷ ଛଅ ମାସ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ବର୍ଷା ହେଲା ନାହିଁ ଓ ସାରା ଦେଶ ରେ ଭୀଷଣ ଦୁର୍ଭିକ୍ଷ ପଡିଲା, ସେତବେେଳେ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ରେ ବହୁ ସଂଖ୍ଯା ରେ ବିଧବା ଥିଲେ।
26 କିନ୍ତୁ ଏଲିୟଙ୍କୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ମଧ୍ଯରୁ କୌଣସି ବିଧବାଙ୍କ ପାଖକୁ ପଠାଗଲା ନାହିଁ। ଏଲିୟଙ୍କୁ କବଳେ ସୀଦୋନ ଅଞ୍ଚଳର ସାରିଫତ ରେ ରହୁଥିବା ଜଣେ ବିଧବା ପାଖକୁ ପଠାଗଲା।
27 ଆହୁରି ମଧ୍ଯ ଭବିଷ୍ଯଦ୍ବକ୍ତା ଏଲୀଶାୟଙ୍କ ସମୟରେ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ରେ ଅନକେ କୁଷ୍ଠ ରୋଗୀ ଥିଲେ। ତଥାପି ସମାନଙ୍କେ ମଧ୍ଯରୁ, କାହାରିକୁ ଆରୋଗ୍ୟ କରାଯାଇ ନଥିଲା। କବଳେ ସୁରିଆ ଦେଶର ନାମାନଙ୍କୁ ଆରୋଗ୍ୟ କରାଯାଇଥିଲା। ନାମାନ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲର ଲୋକ ନଥିଲେ।
28 ସମାଜଗୃହର ରେ ଥିବା ସବୁଲୋକେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ଏହି କଥା ସବୁ ଶୁଣି ଖୁବ୍ ରାଗିଗଲେ।
29 ଲୋକମାନେ ଉଠି ପଡିଲେ ଓ ଜାରେ ଜବରଦସ୍ତି ୟିଶୁଙ୍କୁ ନଗର ମଧ୍ଯରୁ ବାହାର କରି ଦେଲେ। ସମାନଙ୍କେ ନଗର ଗୋଟିଏ ପାହାଡ ଉପରେ ନିର୍ମିତ ଥିଲା। ସମାନେେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ ପାହାଡର ଧାରକୁ ନଇଗେଲେ। ସମାନେେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ ସଠାରୁେ ତଳକୁ ଫିଙ୍ଗି ଦବୋକୁ ଚାହୁଁଥିଲେ।
30 କିନ୍ତୁ ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ମଧ୍ଯ ଦଇେ ଚାଲିଗଲେ।
31 ଯୀଶୁ ଗାଲିଲୀର କଫର୍ନାହୂମ ନାମକ ନଗରକୁ ଆସିଲେ। ସେ ବିଶ୍ରାମବାର ରେ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଉପଦେଶ ଦବୋକୁ ଲାଗିଲେ।
32 ଲୋକେ ତାହାଙ୍କ ଉପଦେଶ ଶୁଣି ବିସ୍ମିତ ହାଇଯୋଉଥିଲେ। କାରଣ ସେ ଅଧିକାର ସହିତ କଥା କହୁଥଲେ।
33 ସହେି ସମାଜଗୃହ ରେ ଥିବା ଜଣେ ଲୋକ ଦହେ ରେ ଦୁଷ୍ଟାତ୍ମା ଆସି ରହିଥଲା। ସେ ବଡପାଟି ରେ ଚିତ୍କାର କରି କହିଲା,
34 ହେ ନାଜରିତର ଯୀଶୁ! ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଆମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କଠାରୁ କ'ଣ ଚାହୁଁଛ? ତୁମ୍ଭେ କ'ଣ ଆମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ଧ୍ବଂସ କରିଦବୋକୁ ଆସିଛ? ମୁଁ ଜାଣିଛି ତୁମ୍ଭେ କିଏ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ସହେି ପବିତ୍ର ବ୍ଯକ୍ତି।
35 ଯୀଶୁ ତାହାକୁ ଧମକ ଦଇେ କହିଲେ, ଚୁପ୍ କର ଏହି ଲୋକର ଦହରେୁ ବାହାରିଯା। ଏହାପରେ ଦୁଷ୍ଟାତ୍ମା ସହେି ଲୋକଟିକୁ ସମସ୍ତଙ୍କ ସାମନା ରେ ତଳେ ପକାଇ ଦଲୋ ଓ ତାହାର କୌଣସି କ୍ଷତି ନକରି ତା' ଦହରେୁ ବାହାରିଗଲା।
36 ଲୋକମାନେ ଆଶ୍ଚର୍ୟ୍ଯ ହାଇଗେଲେ। ସମାନେେ କୁହାକୁହି ହେଲେ, ଏ କିପରି କଥା? ଅଧିକାର ଓ ଶକ୍ତି ସହିତ ସେ ଦୁଷ୍ଟାତ୍ମାମାନଙ୍କୁ ଆଜ୍ଞା ଦେଉଛନ୍ତି। ଏବଂ ଦୁଷ୍ଟାତ୍ମାମାନେ ତାହାଙ୍କ କଥା ମାନି ବାହାରି ଆସୁଛନ୍ତି।
37 ସହେି ଅଞ୍ଚଳର ସବୁ ସ୍ଥାନ ରେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ବିଷୟ ରେ ଏହି ଖବର ବ୍ଯାପିଗଲା।
38 ଯୀଶୁ ସମାଜଗୃହ ଛାଡି ଶିମାନଙ୍କେ ଘରକୁ ଗଲେ। ଶିମାନଙ୍କେ ଶାଶୁଙ୍କୁ ଭୟଙ୍କର ଜ୍ବର ହାଇେଥିଲା। ସମାନେେ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କୁ, ତାହାଙ୍କୁ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କରିବା ପାଇଁ କହିଲେ।
39 ଯୀଶୁ ତାହାଙ୍କର ପାଖ ରେ ଠିଆ ହାଇେ ଜ୍ବରକୁ ଧମକ ଦେଲେ। ତାହାଙ୍କର ଜ୍ବର ଛାଡିଗଲା। ତା'ପରେ ସେ ଉଠି ସମାନଙ୍କେର ସବୋ ରେ ଲାଗିପଡିଲେ।
40 ସୂର୍ୟ୍ଯ ଅସ୍ତ ହାଇଯେିବା ପରେ ଲୋକମାନେ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ରୋଗୀ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଯୀଶୁଙ୍କ ପାଖକୁ ଆଣିଲେ। ସମାନଙ୍କେଠା ରେ ବିଭିନ୍ନ ପ୍ରକାରର ରୋଗ ଥିଲା। ଯୀଶୁ ନିଜ ହାତ ରୋଗୀମାନଙ୍କ ଉପରେ ରଖି ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ ସୁସ୍ଥ କରି ଦେଲେ।
41 ଆଉ ମଧ୍ଯ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ମଧିଅରେ ଥିବା ଅନକଙ୍କେ ଭିତରୁ ଦୁଷ୍ଟାତ୍ମାମାନେ ବାହାରି ଆସିଲେ। ଦୁଷ୍ଟାତ୍ମାମାନେ ଚିତ୍କାର କରୁ ଥିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କର ପୁତ୍ର। କିନ୍ତୁ ଯୀଶୁ ଦୁଷ୍ଟାତ୍ମାମାନଙ୍କୁ ଚୁପ୍ ରହିବା ପାଇଁ କଠାେର ଆଜ୍ଞା ଦେଲେ। କାରଣ ସହେି ଦୁଷ୍ଟାତ୍ମାମାନେ ଜାଣିଥିଲେ ଯେ ଯୀଶୁ ହେଉଛନ୍ତି ସ୍ବଯଂ ଖ୍ରୀଷ୍ଟ।
42 ଯୀଶୁ ଏକାକୀ ରହିବା ଉଦ୍ଦେଶ୍ଯ ରେ ତା'ପର ଦିନ ସକାଳେ ସେ ସ୍ଥାନ ଛାଡି ଅନ୍ୟତ୍ର ଚାଲିଗଲେ। କିନ୍ତୁ ଲୋକମାନେ ତାହାଙ୍କୁ ଖାଜେିଲେ। ଖାଜେି ଖାଜେି େଶଷରେ ସମାନେେ ଯୀଶୁ ଯେଉଁଠା ରେ ଥିଲେ, ସଠାେରେ ପହଞ୍ଚିଗଲେ। ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ ଛାଡି କରି କୁଆଡେ ନଯା'ନ୍ତୁ ବୋଲି ସମାନେେ ଚାହୁଁଥିଲେ। ତେଣୁ ସମାନେେ ଯାଶୁଙ୍କୁ ଅଟକଇବୋକୁ ଚେଷ୍ଟାକଲେ।
43 କିନ୍ତୁ ଯୀଶୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କହିଲେ, ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ରାଜ୍ଯର ସୁସମାଚାର ମାେତେ ଅନ୍ୟ ନଗରମାନଙ୍କ ରେ ମଧ୍ଯ ପ୍ରଚାର କରିବାକୁ ପଡିବ। କାରଣ ମାେତେ ଏଥିପାଇଁ ପଠାଯାଇଛି।
44 ଏହିଭଳି ଭାବରେ ଯୀଶୁ ଯିହୁଦା ରେ ବିଭିନ୍ନ ସମାଜଗୃହମାନଙ୍କ ରେ ଉପଦେଶ ପ୍ରଚାର କରିବାକୁ ଲାଗିଲେ।
1 And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
2 Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered.
3 And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread.
4 And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
9 And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence:
10 For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee:
11 And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
12 And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
13 And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season.
14 And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.
15 And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.
16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,
18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.
22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?
23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.
24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country.
25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;
26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.
27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.
28 And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,
29 And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.
30 But he passing through the midst of them went his way,
31 And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days.
32 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power.
33 And in the synagogue there was a man, which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice,
34 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God.
35 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out of him, and hurt him not.
36 And they were all amazed, and spake among themselves, saying, What a word is this! for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out.
37 And the fame of him went out into every place of the country round about.
38 And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon’s house. And Simon’s wife’s mother was taken with a great fever; and they besought him for her.
39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.
40 Now when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them.
41 And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God. And he rebuking them suffered them not to speak: for they knew that he was Christ.
42 And when it was day, he departed and went into a desert place: and the people sought him, and came unto him, and stayed him, that he should not depart from them.
43 And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.
44 And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.
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.
