Matthew 22 (BGC)

1इसपै यीशु फेर उनतै उदाहरणां म्ह कहण लाग्या,Once again, Jesus spoke to them in parables:

2“सुर्ग का राज्य उस राजा की ढाळ सै, जिसनै अपणे बेट्टे का ब्याह करया।“The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son.

3अर उसनै अपणे नौकरां ताहीं भेज्या, के न्योंदे होड़ माणसां ताहीं ब्याह के जिमणे म्ह बुलावै; पर उननै आणा न्ही चाह्या।”He sent his servants to call those he had invited to the banquet, but they refused to come.

4“फेर उसनै और नौकरां ताहीं न्यू कहकै भेज्या, ‘न्योंदे होड़ माणसां ताहीं कहो देक्खों, मन्नै भोज त्यार कर लिया सै, अर मेरे बळध अर पळे होड़ डान्गर काट लिये सै: सारा कुछ त्यार सै; ब्याह के जिमणे म्ह आओ।’”Again, he sent other servants and said, ‘Tell those who have been invited that I have prepared my dinner. My oxen and fattened cattle have been killed, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding banquet.’

5पर वे बेपरवाह होकै चले गये, कोए अपणे खेत्तां म्ह, कोए अपणे धन्धे पै।But they paid no attention and went away, one to his field, another to his business.

6और कई माणसां नै तो राजा के नौकरां ताहीं पकड़कै उनकी बेजती करी अर उन ताहीं मार दिया।The rest seized his servants, mistreated them, and killed them.

7जिब राजा नै यो सुण्या तो छो म्ह भरग्या, अर अपणी पलटन भेजकै उन हत्यारा का नाश करया, अर उनके नगर फूँक दिए।The king was enraged, and he sent his troops to destroy those murderers and burn their city.

8फेर राजा नै अपणे नौकरां तै कह्या, ब्याह का भोज तो त्यार सै, पर के न्योंदे होड़ माणस इस जोग्गे कोनी ठहरे।Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited were not worthy.

9इस करकै चौराहयाँ पै जाओ, अर जितने माणस थमनै मिलै, सारया ताहीं ब्याह कै भोज म्ह बुला ल्याओ।Go therefore to the crossroads and invite to the banquet as many as you can find.’

10इस तरियां उसके नौकरां नै सड़कां पै जाकै के भुन्डे़, के आच्छे, जितने मिले सारया ताहीं कठ्ठा करया; ब्याह का घर मेहमानां तै भरग्या।So the servants went out into the streets and gathered everyone they could find, both evil and good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.

11जिब राजा मेहमानां नै देखण भीत्त्तर आया, तो उसनै ओड़ै एक माणस ताहीं देख्या, जो ब्याह आळे लत्ते कोनी पहररया था।But when the king came in to see the guests, he spotted a man who was not dressed in wedding clothes.

12उसनै उसतै बुझ्झया, हे दोस्त, तू ब्याह म्ह पैहरे जाण आळे लत्ते पहरे बिना उरै क्यातै आ ग्या। उसका मुँह बन्द होग्या।‘Friend,’ he asked, ‘how did you get in here without wedding clothes?’ But the man was speechless.

13फेर राजा नै नौकरां तै कह्या, इसके हाथ-पैर जुड़कै उस ताहीं बाहरणै अन्धेरे म्ह गेर द्यो, ओड़ै रोणा, अर दाँत पिसणा होवैगा।Then the king told the servants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

14“क्यूँके बुलाये होड़ तो घणे सै पर चुणे होए कम सै।”For many are called, but few are chosen.”

15फेर फरीसियाँ नै आकै आप्पस म्ह विचार करया, के उसनै किस ढाळ बात्तां म्ह फसावा।Then the Pharisees went out and conspired to trap Jesus in His words.

16इस तरियां उननै अपणे चेल्यां ताहीं हेरोदेस राजा के समर्थकां कै गेल्या उसकै धोरै न्यू कहण नै भेज्या, “हे गुरु, हमनै बेरा सै, के तू साच्चा सै, अर परमेसवर की राह सच्चाई तै सिखावै सै; अर किसे की परवाह कोनी करदा, क्यूँके तू माणसां का मुँह देखकै बात कोनी करदा।They sent their disciples to Him along with the Herodians. “Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and that You teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You seek favor from no one, because You pay no attention to external appearance.

17इस करकै हमनै बता तन्नै के समझ आवै सै? कैसर तै चुंगी देणा ठीक सै के न्ही।”So tell us what You think: Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”

18यीशु नै उनका कपट जाणकै कह्या, “हे कपटियों, मन्नै क्यांतै परखो सो?But Jesus knew their evil intent and said, “You hypocrites, why are you testing Me?

19कर का सिक्का मेरै ताहीं दिखाओ।” फेर उसकै धोरै एक दीनार (एक दिन की मजदूरी) लियाये।Show Me the coin used for the tax.” And they brought Him a denarius.

20उसनै उनतै कह्या, “या छाप अर नाम किसका सै?”“Whose image is this,” He asked, “and whose inscription?”

21उननै उसतै कह्या, “कैसर का।” फेर उसनै उनतै कह्या, “जो कैसर का सै, वो कैसर ताहीं; अर जो परमेसवर का सै, वो परमेसवर ताहीं द्यो।”“Caesar’s,” they answered. So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”

22न्यू सुणकै उननै हैरानी होई, उस ताहीं छोड़कै चले ग्ये।And when they heard this, they were amazed. So they left Him and went away.

23उस्से दिन सदूकी जो कहवै सै के मरे होया का दुबारा जिन्दा उठणा सै ए कोनी, उसकै धोरै आये अर उसतै बुझ्झया,That same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him.

24“हे गुरु, मूसा नबी नै कह्या था के जै कोए माणस बेऊलादा मर जावै, तो उसका भाई उसकी घरआळी तै ब्याह करकै अपणे भाई कै खात्तर पीढ़ी पैदा करै।“Teacher,” they said, “Moses declared that if a man dies without having children, his brother is to marry the widow and raise up offspring for him.

25इब म्हारै उरै सात भाई थे; पैहल्ड़ा ब्याह करकै मरग्या, अर ऊलाद ना होण कै कारण अपणी घरआळी अपणे भाई कै खात्तर छोड़ ग्या।Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married and died without having children. So he left his wife to his brother.

26इस्से तरियां दुसरे अर तीसरे नै भी करया, अर सातुवां तक योए होया।The same thing happened to the second and third brothers, down to the seventh.

27सारया पाच्छै वा बिरबान्नी भी मरगी।And last of all, the woman died.

28आखर म्ह जिन्दा होण पै वा सातुवां म्ह तै किसकी घरआळी होवैगी? क्यूँके वा सारया की घरआळी बण ली थी।”In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be of the seven? For all of them were married to her.”

29यीशु नै उनतै जवाब दिया, “थारी गलती या सै के थम पवित्र ग्रन्थ अर परमेसवर की सामर्थ नै न्ही जाणते।Jesus answered, “You are mistaken because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God.

30क्यूँके मरकै जिन्दा हो जाणकै बाद ब्याह शादी कोनी होन्दी, पर सुर्ग म्ह परमेसवर के सुर्गदूत्तां की ढाळ होवैगें।In the resurrection, people will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.

31पर मरकै जिन्दा हो जाणकै बाबत के थमनै यो वचन कोनी पढ़्या जो परमेसवर नै थारे तै कह्याBut concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what God said to you:

32‘मै अब्राहम का परमेसवर, अर इसहाक का परमेसवर, याकूब का परमेसवर सूं’? वो मरे होया का न्ही, पर जिन्दा का परमेसवर सै।”‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living.”

33न्यू सुणकै माणस उसके उपदेश तै हैरान होए।When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.

34जिब फरीसियाँ नै सुण्या के यीशु नै सदूकियाँ का मुँह बन्द कर दिया, तो वे कठ्ठे होए।And when the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they themselves gathered together.

35शास्त्री समाज के माणसां म्ह तै एक नै उस ताहीं परखण कै खात्तर उसतै बुझ्झया,One of them, an expert in the law, tested Him with a question:

36“हे गुरु, नियम-कायदा म्ह कौण सा हुकम बड्ड़ा सै?”“Teacher, which commandment is the greatest in the Law?”

37यीशु नै उसतै कह्या, “तू परमेसवर अपणे प्रभु तै अपणे पूरे मन अर अपणे सारे प्राण अर अपणी सारी बुद्धि के साथ प्यार राख।Jesus declared, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’

38पैहला अर बड्ड़ा हुकम तो योए सै।This is the first and greatest commandment.

39अर उस्से जिसा यो दुसरा भी सै के तू अपणे पड़ोसी तै अपणे जिसा प्यार राख।And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’

40ये दो हुकम सारे नियम-कायदे अर नबियाँ का निचोड़ (आधार) सै।”All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

41जिब फरीसी कठ्ठे थे, तो यीशु नै उनतै बुझया,While the Pharisees were assembled, Jesus questioned them:

42“मसीह कै बारै म्ह थम के सोच्चो सो? वो किसका बेट्टा सै?” उननै यीशु तै कह्या, “दाऊद का।”“What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is He?” “David’s,” they answered.

43यीशु नै उनतै बुझया, “तो दाऊद आत्मा म्ह होकै उसनै प्रभु क्यांतै कहवै सै?”Jesus said to them, “How then does David in the Spirit call Him ‘Lord’? For he says:

44“‘प्रभु नै, मेरै प्रभु तै कह्या, मेरै सोळे कान्ही बैठ, जिब ताहीं के मै तेरे बैरियाँ ताहीं तेरे पायां म्ह ना झुका दियुँ।’”‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’

45“भला, जिब दाऊद उसनै प्रभु कहवै सै, तो वो उसका बेट्टा किस ढाळ होया?”So if David calls Him ‘Lord,’ how can He be David’s son?”

46उसके जवाब म्ह कोए भी एक बात न्ही कह सक्या। पर उस दिन तै दुबारै उसतै कीमे और बुझ्झण की हिम्मत कोनी करी।No one was able to answer a word, and from that day on no one dared to question Him any further.
