Exodus 2
1 लेवी के घराने के एक पुरूष ने एक लेवी वंश की स्त्री को ब्याह लिया।
2 और वह स्त्री गर्भवती हुई और उसके एक पुत्र उत्पन्न हुआ; और यह देखकर कि यह बालक सुन्दर है, उसे तीन महीने तक छिपा रखा।
3 और जब वह उसे और छिपा न सकी तब उसके लिये सरकंड़ों की एक टोकरी ले कर, उस पर चिकनी मिट्टी और राल लगाकर, उस में बालक को रखकर नील नदी के तीर पर कांसों के बीच छोड़ आई।
4 उस बालक कि बहिन दूर खड़ी रही, कि देखे इसका क्या हाल होगा।
5 तब फिरौन की बेटी नहाने के लिये नदी के तीर आई; उसकी सखियां नदी के तीर तीर टहलने लगीं; तब उसने कांसों के बीच टोकरी को देखकर अपनी दासी को उसे ले आने के लिये भेजा।
6 तब उसने उसे खोल कर देखा, कि एक रोता हुआ बालक है; तब उसे तरस आया और उसने कहा, यह तो किसी इब्री का बालक होगा।
7 तब बालक की बहिन ने फिरौन की बेटी से कहा, क्या मैं जा कर इब्री स्त्रियों में से किसी धाई को तेरे पास बुला ले आऊं जो तेरे लिये बालक को दूध पिलाया करे?
8 फिरौन की बेटी ने कहा, जा। तब लड़की जा कर बालक की माता को बुला ले आई।
9 फिरौन की बेटी ने उससे कहा, तू इस बालक को ले जा कर मेरे लिये दूध पिलाया कर, और मैं तुझे मजदूरी दूंगी। तब वह स्त्री बालक को ले जा कर दूध पिलाने लगी।
10 जब बालक कुछ बड़ा हुआ तब वह उसे फिरौन की बेटी के पास ले गई, और वह उसका बेटा ठहरा; और उसने यह कहकर उसका नाम मूसा रखा, कि मैं ने इस को जल से निकाल लिया॥
11 उन दिनों में ऐसा हुआ कि जब मूसा जवान हुआ, और बाहर अपने भाई बन्धुओं के पास जा कर उनके दु:खों पर दृष्टि करने लगा; तब उसने देखा, कि कोई मिस्री जन मेरे एक इब्री भाई को मार रहा है।
12 जब उसने इधर उधर देखा कि कोई नहीं है, तब उस मिस्री को मार डाला और बालू में छिपा दिया॥
13 फिर दूसरे दिन बाहर जा कर उसने देखा कि दो इब्री पुरूष आपस में मारपीट कर रहे हैं; उसने अपराधी से कहा, तू अपने भाई को क्यों मारता है?
14 उसने कहा, किस ने तुझे हम लोगों पर हाकिम और न्यायी ठहराया? जिस भांति तू ने मिस्री को घात किया क्या उसी भांति तू मुझे भी घात करना चाहता है? तब मूसा यह सोचकर डर गया, कि निश्चय वह बात खुल गई है।
15 जब फिरौन ने यह बात सुनी तब मूसा को घात करने की युक्ति की। तब मूसा फिरौन के साम्हने से भागा, और मिद्यान देश में जा कर रहने लगा; और वह वहां एक कुएं के पास बैठ गया।
16 मिद्यान के याजक की सात बेटियां थी; और वे वहां आकर जल भरने लगीं, कि कठौतों में भरके अपने पिता की भेड़बकरियों को पिलाएं।
17 तब चरवाहे आकर उन को हटाने लगे; इस पर मूसा ने खड़ा हो कर उनकी सहायता की, और भेड़-बकरियों को पानी पिलाया।
18 जब वे अपने पिता रूएल के पास फिर आई, तब उसने उन से पूछा, क्या कारण है कि आज तुम ऐसी फुर्ती से आई हो?
19 उन्होंने कहा, एक मिस्री पुरूष ने हम को चरवाहों के हाथ से छुड़ाया, और हमारे लिये बहुत जल भरके भेड़-बकरियों को पिलाया।
20 तब उसने अपनी बेटियों से कहा, वह पुरूष कहां है? तुम उसको क्योंछोड़ आई हो? उसको बुला ले आओ कि वह भोजन करे।
21 और मूसा उस पुरूष के साथ रहने को प्रसन्न हुआ; उसने उसे अपनी बेटी सिप्पोरा को ब्याह दिया।
22 और उसके एक पुत्र उत्पन्न हुआ, तब मूसा ने यह कहकर, कि मैं अन्य देश में परदेशी हूं, उसका नाम गेर्शोम रखा॥
23 बहुत दिनों के बीतने पर मिस्र का राजा मर गया। और इस्राएली कठिन सेवा के कारण लम्बी लम्बी सांस ले कर आहें भरने लगे, और पुकार उठे, और उनकी दोहाई जो कठिन सेवा के कारण हुई वह परमेश्वर तक पहुंची।
24 और परमेश्वर ने उनका कराहना सुनकर अपनी वाचा को, जो उसने इब्राहीम, और इसहाक, और याकूब के साथ बान्धी थी, स्मरण किया।
25 और परमेश्वर ने इस्राएलियों पर दृष्टि करके उन पर चित्त लगाया॥
1 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
2 And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
3 And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river’s brink.
4 And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
5 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river’s side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.
6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews’ children.
7 Then said his sister to Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
8 And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child’s mother.
9 And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
10 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.
11 And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren.
12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13 And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?
14 And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known.
15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.
16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
17 And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day?
19 And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock.
20 And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
21 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
22 And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.
23 And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
1 Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.
2 And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.
3 For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.
4 And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.
5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?
6 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:
11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.
12 And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;
13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
14 And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:
15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.
16 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
17 And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
18 And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;
19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?
20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
24 And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but he could not be hid.
25 For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:
26 The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
27 But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.
28 And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.
29 And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter.
30 And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.
31 And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.
32 And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.
33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;
34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35 And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.
36 And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it;
37 And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
