Luke 5

1 ਪਤਰਸ, ਯਾਕੂਬ ਅਤੇ ਯੂਹੰਨਾ ਯਿਸੂ ਦਾ ਅਨੁਸਰਣ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਨ ਯਿਸੂ ਗਨੇਸਰਤ ਦੀ ਝੀਲ ਕੰਢੇ ਖੜ੍ਹਾ ਸੀ ਅਤੇ ਭੀੜ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਦੇ ਉਪਦੇਸ਼ ਸੁਨਣ ਲਈ, ਉਸ ਦੇ ਆਸ-ਪਾਸ ਇਕੱਠੀ ਹੋ ਰਹੀ ਸੀ।

2 ਫ਼ਿਰ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਝੀਲ ਦੇ ਕੰਢੇ ਦੋ ਬੇੜੀਆਂ ਦੇਖੀਆਂ। ਬੇੜੀਆਂ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਮਾਛੀ ਬਾਹਰ ਆਕੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਜਾਲਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਧੋ ਰਹੇ ਸਨ।

3 ਯਿਸੂ ਇੱਕ ਬੇੜੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਚੜ੍ਹ੍ਹ ਗਿਆ ਜੋ ਕਿ ਸ਼ਮਊਨ ਦੀ ਸੀ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਬੇੜੀ ਨੂੰ ਕੰਢੇ ਤੋਂ ਥੋੜੀ ਦੂਰ ਲੈ ਜਾਣ ਲਈ ਆਖਿਆ, ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਬੇੜੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਬੈਠਕੇ ਕੰਢੇ ਤੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਉਪਦੇਸ਼ ਦੇਣ ਲੱਗਾ।

4 ਜਦੋਂ ਉਹ ਬੋਲ ਕੇ ਹਟਿਆ, ਉਸ ਨੇ ਸ਼ਮਊਨ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਹਾ, “ਡੂੰਘੇ ਪਾਣੀਆਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਜਾਓ ਅਤੇ ਮੱਛੀਆਂ ਲਈ ਆਪਣੇ ਜਾਲ ਪਾਣੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਸੁੱਟੋ।”

5 ਸ਼ਮਊਨ ਨੇ ਜਵਾਬ ਦਿੱਤਾ, “ਮਾਲਕ! ਅਸੀਂ ਸਾਰੀ ਰਾਤ ਮੱਛੀਆਂ ਫ਼ੜਨ ਲਈ ਬਹੁਤ ਕੋਸ਼ਿਸ਼ ਕਰਦੇ ਰਹੇ, ਪਰ ਸਾਡੇ ਹੱਥ ਕੁਝ ਵੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਲੱਗਾ। ਪਰ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਆਖਦੇ ਹੋ ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਜਾਲ ਪਾਣੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਾਵਾਂ। ਇਸ ਲਈ ਮੈਂ ਇੰਝ ਹੀ ਕਰਦਾ ਹਾਂ ਜਿਵੇਂ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਆਖਦੇ ਹੋ।”

6 ਸਭ ਮਾਛੀਆਂ ਨੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਜਾਲ ਪਾਣੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਾਏ ਤਾਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਜਾਲ ਮੱਛੀਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਇਸ ਕਦਰ ਭਾਰੇ ਹੋ ਗਏ ਹੋ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਭਾਰ ਨਾਲ ਟੁੱਟਣੇ ਸ਼ੁਰੂ ਹੋ ਗਏ।

7 ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਦੂਜੀ ਬੇੜੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਬੈਠੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਹੋਰਨਾਂ ਸਾਥੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੀ ਮਦਦ ਲਈ ਬੁਲਾਇਆ। ਜਦੋਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਮਿੱਤਰ ਮਦਦ ਲਈ ਆਏ ਤਾਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੀਆਂ ਦੋਨੇ ਬੇੜੀਆਂ ਇਸ ਕਦਰ ਮੱਛੀਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਭਰ ਗਈਆਂ ਕਿ ਇੰਝ ਮਾਲੂਮ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਸੀ ਕਿ ਬੇੜੀਆਂ ਹੁਣੇ ਹੀ ਡੁੱਬ ਜਾਣਗੀਆਂ।

8 ਜਦੋਂ ਸ਼ਮਊਨ ਨੇ ਇਹ ਵੇਖਿਆ, ਤਾਂ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਯਿਸੂ ਅੱਗੇ ਸਿਰ ਝੁਕਾਇਆ ਅਤੇ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਮੈਂ ਇੱਕ ਪਾਪੀ ਬੰਦਾ ਹਾਂ, ਤੂੰ ਮੇਰੇ ਕੋਲੋਂ ਦੂਰ ਚੱਲਿਆ ਜਾ।” ਉਸ ਨੇ ਅਜਿਹਾ ਇਸ ਲਈ ਆਖਿਆ ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਉਹ ਅਤੇ ਹੋਰ ਜੋ ਉਸ ਦੇ ਨਾਲ ਸਨ ਇੰਨੀਆਂ ਮੱਛੀਆਂ ਫ਼ੜੇ ਜਾਣ ਲਈ ਹੈਰਾਨ ਸਨ।

9 ਇਸੇ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਜ਼ਬਦੀ ਦੇ ਪੁੱਤਰ ਯਾਕੂਬ ਅਤੇ ਯੂਹੰਨਾ ਵੀ ਬੜੇ ਹੈਰਾਨ ਹੋਏ। (ਯਾਕੂਬ ਅਤੇ ਯੂਹੰਨਾ ਸ਼ਮਊਨ ਨਾਲ ਸਾਂਝਾ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਦੇ ਸਨ।) ਯਿਸੂ ਨੇ ਸ਼ਮਊਨ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਹਾ, “ਭੈਭੀਤ ਨਾ ਹੋ! ਹੁਣ ਤੋਂ ਤੂੰ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਇਕੱਠਾ ਕਰਨ ਦਾ ਕੰਮ ਕਰੇਂਗਾ।”

10 ਫ਼ੇਰ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਆਪਣੀਆਂ ਬੇੜੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਕੰਢੇ ਤੇ ਲਿਆਂਦਾ। ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਸਭ ਕੁਝ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਛੱਡ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਯਿਸੂ ਦੇ ਮਗਰ ਹੋ ਤੁਰੇ।

11 ਯਿਸੂ ਦਾ ਇੱਕ ਕੋੜ੍ਹੀ ਨੂੰ ਰਾਜੀ ਕਰਨਾ ਇੱਕ ਵਾਰ ਯਿਸੂ ਇੱਕ ਨਗਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਸੀ। ਉੱਥੇ ਕੋੜ੍ਹ ਨਾਲ ਭਰਿਆ ਹੋਇਆ ਇੱਕ ਬੰਦਾ ਸੀ। ਜਦੋਂ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਯਿਸੂ ਨੂੰ ਵੇਖਿਆ ਉਹ ਯਿਸੂ ਦੇ ਪੈਰਾਂ ਤੇ ਝੁਕ ਗਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਕੀਤੀ, “ਪ੍ਰਭੂ, ਮੇਰੇ ਤੇ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰੋ ਅਤੇ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਠੀਕ ਕਰ ਦਿਓ ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਜਾਣਦਾ ਹਾਂ ਕਿ ਜੇ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਚਾਹੋ ਤਾਂ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਰਾਜੀ ਕਰ ਸੱਕਦੇ ਹੋਂ।”

12 ਯਿਸੂ ਨੇ ਆਪਣਾ ਹੱਥ ਬਾਹਰ ਫ਼ੈਲਾਕੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਛੋਹਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਮੈਂ ਤੈਨੂੰ ਰਾਜੀ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦਾ ਹਾਂ, ਰਾਜੀ ਹੋ ਜਾ!” ਤੁਰੰਤ ਹੀ ਕੋੜ੍ਹ ਗਾਇਬ ਹੋ ਗਿਆ।

13 ਤਦ ਯਿਸੂ ਨੇ ਕਿਹਾ, “ਕਿਸੇ ਕੋਲ ਵੀ ਇਸ ਬਾਰੇ ਜ਼ਿਕਰ ਨਾ ਕਰੀਂ ਜਾਜਕ ਕੋਲ ਜਾਕੇ ਆਪਣੇ-ਆਪ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਖਾ ਅਤੇ ਜਿਵੇਂ ਮੂਸਾ ਨੇ ਹੁਕਮ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਜਾਕੇ ਭੇਂਟ ਚੜ੍ਹਾ। ਇੰਝ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪਤਾ ਲੱਗ ਜਾਵੇਗਾ ਕਿ ਤੂੰ ਰਾਜੀ ਹੋ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ।”

14 ਪਰ ਯਿਸੂ ਦੀ ਚਰਚਾ ਵੱਧ ਤੋਂ ਵੱਧ ਫ਼ੈਲਦੀ ਗਈ। ਲੋਕਾਂ ਦੀ ਭੀੜ ਉਸ ਦੇ ਉਪਦੇਸ਼ ਸੁਨਣ ਅਤੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਰੋਗਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਰਾਜੀ ਹੋਣ ਲਈ ਉਸ ਕੋਲ ਆਈ।

15 ਪਰ ਅਕਸਰ ਯਿਸੂ ਇੱਕਾਂਤ ਵਾਲੀਆਂ ਥਾਵਾਂ ਤੇ ਪ੍ਰਾਰਥਨਾ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਚੱਲਿਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਸੀ।

16 ਯਿਸੂ ਦਾ ਇੱਕ ਅਧਰੰਗੀ ਨੂੰ ਠੀਕ ਕਰਨਾ ਇੱਕ ਦਿਨ ਯਿਸੂ ਜਦੋਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਉਪਦੇਸ਼ ਦੇ ਰਿਹਾ ਸੀ ਤਾਂ ਫ਼ਰੀਸੀ, ਅਤੇ ਕੁਝ ਨੇਮ ਦੇ ਉਪਦੇਸ਼ਕ ਵੀ ਉੱਥੇ ਬੈਠੇ ਹੋਏ ਸਨ। ਉਹ ਗਲੀਲ ਅਤੇ ਯਹੂਦਿਯਾ ਦੇ ਹਰ ਨਗਰ ਤੋਂ ਅਤੇ ਯਰੂਸ਼ਲਮ ਤੋਂ ਵੀ ਆਏ ਸਨ। ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਚੰਗਾ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ, ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਦੀ ਸ਼ਕਤੀ ਉਸ ਦੇ ਨਾਲ ਸੀ।

17 ਉੱਥੇ ਇੱਕ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਸੀ ਜਿਸ ਨੂੰ ਅਧਰੰਗ ਹੋਇਆ ਸੀ। ਕੁਝ ਲੋਕ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਮੰਜੀ ਤੇ ਚੁੱਕ ਕੇ ਲਿਆਏ। ਉਹ ਆਦਮੀ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੇ ਸਨ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਇਸ ਅਧਰੰਗੀ ਨੂੰ ਅੰਦਰ ਲੈਜਾਕੇ ਯਿਸੂ ਦੇ ਸਾਹਮਣੇ ਰੱਖਣ।

18 ਪਰ ਉੱਥੇ ਇੰਨੀ ਭੀੜ ਸੀ ਕਿ ਜਦ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਅੰਦਰ ਜਾਣ ਦਾ ਕੋਈ ਢੰਗ ਨਾ ਦਿਸਿਆ ਫ਼ਿਰ ਉਹ ਛੱਤ ਉੱਤੇ ਚੜ੍ਹ੍ਹੇ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਕੁਝ ਖਪਰੈਲਾਂ ਕੱਢੀਆਂ ਅਤੇ ਭੀੜ ਦੇ ਵਿੱਚਕਾਰ ਅਤੇ ਠੀਕ ਯਿਸੂ ਦੇ ਸਾਹਮਣੇ ਉਸ ਬਿਮਾਰ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਨੂੰ ਉਸ ਦੇ ਬਿਸਤਰੇ ਸਮੇਤ ਹੇਠਾਂ ਲਾਹ ਦਿੱਤਾ।

19 ਯਿਸੂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦਾ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ ਵੇਖਕੇ ਬਿਮਾਰ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਹਾ, “ਮਿੱਤਰ, ਤੇਰੇ ਪਾਪ ਬਖਸ਼ੇ ਗਏ ਹਨ।”

20 ਯਹੂਦੀ, ਨੇਮ ਦੇ ਉਪਦੇਸ਼ਕਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਫ਼ਰੀਸੀਆਂ ਨੇ ਆਪਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਸੋਚਿਆ, “ਇਹ ਕੌਣ ਆਦਮੀ ਹੈ ਜੋ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਦੇ ਖਿਲਾਫ਼ ਬੋਲ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈ? ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਕੇਵਲ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਹੀ ਪਾਪ ਮਾਫ਼ ਕਰ ਸੱਕਦਾ ਹੈ।”

21 ਯਿਸੂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੀ ਸੋਚਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਜਾਣਦਾ ਸੀ ਤਾਂ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਕਿਹਾ, “ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਮਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਅਜਿਹੇ ਵਿੱਚਾਰ ਕਿਉਂ ਪੈਦਾ ਹੋ ਰਹੇ ਹਨ?

22 ਕਿਹੜੀ ਗੱਲ ਸੌਖੀ ਹੈ? ਇਹ ਆਖਣਾ ‘ਤੇਰੇ ਪਾਪ ਮਾਫ਼ ਹੋ ਗਏ ਹਨ’, ‘ਜਾਂ ਉੱਠ ਅਤੇ ਚੱਲ।’

23 ਪਰ ਮੈਂ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਇਹ ਸਬੂਤ ਦਿਆਂਗਾ ਕਿ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਦੇ ਪੁੱਤਰ ਨੂੰ ਧਰਤੀ ਤੇ ਪਾਪ ਮਾਫ਼ ਕਰਨ ਦਾ ਅਧਿਕਾਰ ਹੈ।” ਤਾਂ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਅਧਰੰਗੀ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ। “ਮੈਂ ਤੈਨੂੰ ਕਹਿੰਦਾ ਹਾਂ, ਖੜ੍ਹਾ ਹੋ ਆਪਣਾ ਬਿਸਤਰਾ ਚੁੱਕ ਅਤੇ ਘਰ ਨੂੰ ਜਾ।”

24 ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਤੁਰੰਤ ਹੀ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਸਾਹਮਣੇ ਉੱਠ ਖਲੋਇਆ। ਉਸ ਨੇ ਆਪਣਾ ਬਿਸਤਰਾ ਚੁੱਕਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਦੀ ਉਸਤਤਿ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੋਇਆ ਘਰ ਨੂੰ ਚੱਲਾ ਗਿਆ।

25 ਉਹ ਹੈਰਾਨ ਸਨ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਪੂਰੀ ਇੱਜਤ ਨਾਲ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਦੀ ਉਸਤਤਿ ਕੀਤੀ। ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਅੱਜ ਅਸੀਂ ਹੈਰਾਨੀ ਭਰੀਆਂ ਗੱਲਾਂ ਵੇਖਿਆਂ ਹਨ।”

26 ਲੇਵੀ ਯਿਸੂ ਮਗਰ ਹੋ ਪਿਆ ਇਸਤੋਂ ਬਾਦ ਯਿਸੂ ਬਾਹਰ ਗਿਆ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਇੱਕ ਮਸੂਲੀਏ ਲੇਵੀ ਨੂੰ ਮਸੂਲ ਦੀ ਚੌਕੀਂ ਤੇ ਬੈਠੇ ਵੇਖਿਆ। ਯਿਸੂ ਨੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਹਾ, “ਮੇਰੇ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਹੋ ਤੁਰ!”

27 ਲੇਵੀ ਸਭ ਕੁਝ ਛੱਡ ਕੇ ਉਸ ਦੇ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਹੋ ਤੁਰਿਆ।

28 ਲੇਵੀ ਨੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਘਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਯਿਸੂ ਲਈ ਇੱਕ ਵੱਡੀ ਦਾਵਤ ਦਾ ਇੰਤਜਾਮ ਕੀਤਾ। ਖਾਣੇ ਦੀ ਮੇਜ ਤੇ ਕਾਫ਼ੀ ਸਾਰੇ ਮਸੂਲੀਏ ਅਤੇ ਕੁਝ ਹੋਰ ਵੀ ਲੋਕ ਇੱਕਤਰ ਹੋਏ ਸਨ।

29 ਫ਼ਰੀਸੀਆਂ ਅਤੇ ਨੇਮ ਦੇ ਉਪਦੇਸ਼ਕਾਂ ਨੇ ਯਿਸੂ ਦੇ ਚੇਲਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਸ਼ਿਕਾਇਤ ਕੀਤੀ “ਤੁਸੀਂ ਮਸੂਲੀਆਂ ਅਤੇ ਪਾਪੀਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਕਿਉਂ ਖਾ-ਪੀ ਰਹੇ ਹੋ?”

30 ਯਿਸੂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਇਹ ਬਿਮਾਰ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਹਨ, ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਵੈਦ ਦੀ ਜ਼ਰੂਰਤ ਹੈ ਨਾ ਕਿ ਤੰਦਰੁਸਤਾਂ ਨੂੰ।

31 ਮੈਂ ਪਾਪੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਦਿਲ ਅਤੇ ਜੀਵਨ ਬਦਲਣ ਲਈ ਆਖਣ ਲਈ ਆਇਆ ਹਾਂ, ਨਾ ਕਿ ਧਰਮੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ।”

32 ਯਿਸੂ ਦਾ ਵਰਤ ਬਾਰੇ ਸਵਾਲ ਦਾ ਜਵਾਬ ਦੇਣਾ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਯਿਸੂ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਹਾ, “ਯੂਹੰਨਾ ਦੇ ਚੇਲੇ ਵੀ ਆਮ ਤੌਰ ਤੇ ਫ਼ਰੀਸੀਆਂ ਦੇ ਚੇਲਿਆਂ ਵਾਂਗ ਵਰਤ ਰੱਖਦੇ ਅਤੇ ਪ੍ਰਾਰਥਨਾ ਕਰਦੇ ਸਨ, ਪਰ ਤੇਰੇ ਚੇਲੇ ਹਰ ਵਕਤ ਖਾਂਦੇ-ਪੀਂਦੇ ਰਹਿੰਦੇ ਹਨ।”

33 ਯਿਸੂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਕੀ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਲਾੜੇ ਦੇ ਦੋਸਤਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਵਰਤ ਰੱਖਵਾ ਸੱਕਦੇ ਹੋ ਜਦੋਂ ਤੱਕ ਕਿ ਲਾੜਾ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਨਾਲ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ?

34 ਪਰ ਵਕਤ ਆਵੇਗਾ ਜਦੋਂ ਲਾੜਾ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਲੈ ਲਿਆ ਜਾਵੇਗਾ। ਉਸ ਵਕਤ ਉਹ ਵਰਤ ਰੱਖਣਗੇ।”

35 ਯਿਸੂ ਨੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਇਹ ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟਾਂਤ ਸੁਣਾਇਆ, “ਕੋਈ ਵੀ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਨਵੇਂ ਕੱਪੜੇ ਦੀ ਟਾਕੀ ਪਾੜਕੇ ਪੁਰਾਣੇ ਕੱਪੜੇ ਉੱਤੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਲਾਉਂਦਾ। ਜੇਕਰ ਉਹ ਇਹ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਨਵੀਂ ਪੁਸ਼ਾਕ ਨੂੰ ਖਰਾਬ ਕਰ ਲਵੇਗਾ, ਪਰ ਹਾਂ ਨਵੀਂ ਪੁਸ਼ਾਕ ਦੀ ਟਾਕੀ ਵੀ ਪੁਰਾਣੀ ਪੋਸ਼ਾਕ ਤੇ ਮੇਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਖਾਂਦੀ।

36 ਲੋਕ ਨਵੀਂ ਮੈਅ ਨੂੰ ਕਦੇ ਵੀ ਪੁਰਾਣੀ ਮਸ਼ਕਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਨਹੀਂ ਪਾਉਂਦੇ। ਕਿਉਂ? ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਨਵੀਂ ਮੈਅ ਪੁਰਾਣੀਆਂ ਮਸ਼ਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪਾੜ ਦੇਵੇਗੀ ਅਤੇ ਮੈਅ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਡੁਲ੍ਹ ਜਾਵੇਗੀ ਅਤੇ ਮਸ਼ਕਾਂ ਨਸ਼ਟ ਹੋ ਜਾਣਗੀਆਂ।

37 ਇਸੇ ਲਈ ਲੋਕ ਨਵੀਂ ਮੈਅ ਹਮੇਸ਼ਾ ਨਵੀਆਂ ਮਸ਼ਕਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਭਰਦੇ ਹਨ।

38 ਅਤੇ ਪੁਰਾਣੀ ਮੈਅ ਪੀਕੇ ਨਵੀਂ ਕੋਈ ਨਹੀਂ ਚਾਹੁੰਦਾ। ਕਿਉਂ? ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਉਹ ਆਖਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ, ‘ਪੁਰਾਣੀ ਮੈਅ ਹੀ ਵੱਧੀਆ ਹੈ।’”

1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.

4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:

10 And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.

11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.

12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

13 And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.

14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.

17 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.

19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus.

20 And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.

21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?

22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?

23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?

24 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house.

25 And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.

26 And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day.

27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me.

28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.

29 And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.

30 But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.

32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

33 And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?

34 And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?

35 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

36 And he spake also a parable unto them; No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent, and the piece that was taken out of the new agreeth not with the old.

37 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.

38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.

39 No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.

To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the Lord: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.

Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

15 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସବୁ ହସ୍ତ ପ୍ରସାରଣ କରି ମାେତେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କରିବ, ମାତ୍ର ମୁଁ ବିମୁଖ ହାଇେ ଚକ୍ଷୁ ଆଚ୍ଛାଦିତ କରିବି। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସବୁ ଅନକେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କରିବ, ମାତ୍ର ମୁଁ ତାହା ଶୁଣିବି ନାହିଁ। କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ହସ୍ତ ରକ୍ତ ରେ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ।
And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

16 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ନିଜକୁ ପ୍ରକ୍ଷାଳନ କର। ନିଜକୁ ପରିଷ୍କାର କର। ମନ୍ଦ କାର୍ୟ୍ଯରୁ ନିବୃତ ହୁଅ। ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ସହେି ମନ୍ଦ କର୍ମ ଦେଖିବାକୁ ଇଚ୍ଛା କରେ ନାହିଁ। କୁକର୍ମରୁ ନିବୃତ୍ତ ହୁଅ।
Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

17 ସୁକର୍ମ କରିବାକୁ ଶିକ୍ଷା କର। ଅନ୍ୟମାନଙ୍କ ପ୍ରତି ନ୍ଯାଯ ଆଚରଣ କର। ଅନ୍ୟକୁ ଆଘାତ କରୁଥିବା ବ୍ଯକ୍ତିଙ୍କୁ ଦଣ୍ଡ ଦିଅ। ପିତୃମାତୃହୀନ ସନ୍ତାନମାନଙ୍କୁ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କର। ବିଧବାମାନଙ୍କୁ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କର।'
Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

18 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ପୁଣି କୁହନ୍ତି, ଆସ, ମାେ ସହିତ ଆଳାପ କର। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପାପ ସିନ୍ଦୁର ବର୍ଣ୍ଣ ପରି ଲାଲ ହେଲେ ହେଁ ବରଫ ସଦୃଶ ଶୁଭ୍ର ହବେ। ଆଉ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପାପ ଉଜ୍ଜ୍ବଳ ଲୋହିତ ବର୍ଣ୍ଣ ପରି ହେଲେ ହେଁ ମଷେ ଲୋମ ସଦୃଶ ଶୁଭ୍ର ହବେ।
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

19 ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାରେ ବାକ୍ଯ ପ୍ରତି ଧ୍ଯାନ ଦବେ ଓ ମାରେ ଆଜ୍ଞାବହ ହବେ ତବେେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଦେଶ ରେ ଉତ୍ତମ ଫଳ ଭୋଗ କରିବ।
If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

20 ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ମାରେ ବାକ୍ଯ ପ୍ରତି ଧ୍ଯାନ ନ ଦିଅ ଏବଂ ମାରେ ବିରୁଦ୍ଧାଚରଣ କର, ତବେେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶତ୍ରୁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଧ୍ବଂସ କରିବେ।'
But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

21 ପରମେଶ୍ବର କୁହନ୍ତି, ୟିରୁଶାଲମ୍ ଏକ ନଗର ଯାହା ମାେ ପ୍ରତି ବିଶ୍ବସ୍ତ ଥିଲା। କିଏ ଏହାକୁ ଏକ ବ୍ଯଭିଚାରିଣୀ ରେ ପରିଣତ କଲା? ୟିରୁଶାଲମ୍ ନ୍ଯାଯ ପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ ହବୋ ଉଚିତ୍। ୟିରୁଶାଲମର ଲୋକମାନେ ଯାହା ଠିକ୍ ତାହା କରିବା ଉଚିତ୍। ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ଏହା ତଣ୍ଟିକଟା ଓ ହତ୍ଯାକାରୀମାନଙ୍କର ବାସସ୍ଥାନ ରେ ପରିଣତ ହାଇେଛି।
How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

22 ଉତ୍ତମଗୁଣ ରୂପା ସଦୃଶ। ମାତ୍ର ତୁମ୍ଭର ରୂପା ଖାଦ ପାଲଟିଛି। ତୁମ୍ଭର ଦ୍ରାକ୍ଷାରସ ଜଳମିଶ୍ରିତ ହାଇେଅଛି। ଉତ୍ତମଗୁଣ ଦୁର୍ବଳ ହାଇେଛି।
Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:

23 ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶାସକଗଣ ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀ ହାଇେଛନ୍ତି ଓ ଚୋରମାନଙ୍କର ବନ୍ଧୁ ହାଇେଛନ୍ତି। ତୁମ୍ଭର ସମସ୍ତ ଶାସକ ଲାଞ୍ଚକୁ ଭଲ ପାଆନ୍ତି। ଅନ୍ଯାଯ କାର୍ୟ୍ଯ ପାଇଁ ପାରିତୋଷିକ ଗ୍ରହଣ କରନ୍ତି। ଆଉ ସହେି ଶାସକମାନେ ଲୋକଙ୍କୁ ଠକିବାକୁ ଅର୍ଥ ନିଅନ୍ତି। ତୁମ୍ଭର ସହେି ଶାସକଗଣ ଅନାଥ ପିଲାମାନଙ୍କୁ ଓ ବିଧବାମାନଙ୍କୁ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ଦରକାର ବେଳେ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କରନ୍ତି ନାହିଁ।'
Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.

24 ଏହିସବୁ ପ୍ରଭୁ ସର୍ବଶକ୍ତିମାନ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଇଶ୍ରାୟେଲ ବଳଦାତା କୁହନ୍ତି, ମୁଁ ମାରେ ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କୁ ଶାସ୍ତି ଦବେି, ମୁଁ ମାରେ ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କୁ ଶାସ୍ତି ଦବେି।
Therefore saith the Lord, the Lord of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies:

25 ଲୋକମନେ ରୂପାର ଖାଦ ଦୂର କରିବାକୁ ଏକ ପ୍ରକାର ଜିନିଷ ବ୍ଯବହାର କରନ୍ତି। ସହେିପରି ଭାବରେ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଅପବିତ୍ରତାକୁ ଦୂର କରିବି। ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ଭିତରୁ ସମସ୍ତ ମନ୍ଦ ଜିନିଷ କାଢ଼ିନବେି ଓ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ପବିତ୍ର କରିବି।
And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:

26 ଆଦ୍ଯ ସମୟ ପରି ମୁଁ ବିଚାରକାରୀଗଣଙ୍କୁ ଫରୋଇ ଆଣିବି। ପୂର୍ବେ ପୂର୍ବର ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ମନ୍ତ୍ରୀମାନଙ୍କ ପରି ପରାମର୍ଶଦାତାଙ୍କୁ ପୁନଃସ୍ଥାପନା କରିବି। ତାପ ରେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ 'ଉତ୍ତମ ଓ ବିଶ୍ବସ୍ତ ନଗରୀ ବୋଲି କଥିତ ହବେ।'
And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellers as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

27 ପରମେଶ୍ବର ଉତ୍ତମ ଏବଂ ସେ ନ୍ଯାଯ ବିଚାର କରନ୍ତି। ତେଣୁ ସେ ସିୟୋନକୁ ରକ୍ଷା କରିବେ ଏବଂ ଲୋକମାନେ ତାଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ପ୍ରତ୍ଯାବର୍ତ୍ତନ କରିବେ।
Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.

28 ମାତ୍ର ସମସ୍ତ ଅଧର୍ମାଚାରୀ ଓ ପାପୀଗଣ ବିନଷ୍ଟ ହବେେ। ଯେଉଁମାନେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କୁ ଅବଜ୍ଞା କରନ୍ତି ସମାନେେ ସଂହାରିତ ହବେେ।
And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed.

29 ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ପୂଜାକରିବାକୁ ବାଛିଥିବା ଆଲୋନଗଛ ଓ ସ୍ବତନ୍ତ୍ର ବଗିଚା ପାଇଁ ଭବିଷ୍ଯତ ରେ ଲୋକମାନେ ଲଜ୍ଜିତ ହବେେ।
For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.

30 ଏହା ଘଟିବ କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଶୁଷ୍କ ପତ୍ର ବିଶିଷ୍ଟ ଆଲୋନଗଛ ଓ ନିର୍ଜନ ଉଦ୍ୟାନ ସଦୃଶ ହବେ।
For ye shall be as an oak whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.

31 ଶକ୍ତିଶାଳୀ ମାନବ ଶୁଷ୍କ କାଠି ସଦୃଶ ହବେେ ଏବଂ ସମାନଙ୍କେର କର୍ମ ଅଗ୍ନିକଣା ସଦୃଶ ହବେ। ସହେି ବଳବାନ୍ ଲୋକମାନେ ଓ ସମାନଙ୍କେର କର୍ମ ସବୁ ଅଗ୍ନି ରେ ପୋଡ଼ି ଦବେେ। ସହେି ଅଗ୍ନିକୁ କହେି ନିର୍ବାପିତ କରିପାରିବେ ନାହିଁ।
And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.
