Mark 7

1 तब फरीसी और कई एक शास्त्री जो यरूशलेम से आए थे, उसके पास इकट्ठे हुए।

2 और उन्होंने उसके कई एक चेलों को अशुद्ध अर्थात बिना हाथ धोए रोटी खाते देखा।

3 क्योंकि फरीसी और सब यहूदी, पुरनियों की रीति पर चलते हैं और जब तक भली भांति हाथ नहीं धो लेते तब तक नहीं खाते।

4 और बाजार से आकर, जब तक स्नान नहीं कर लेते, तब तक नहीं खाते; और बहुत सी और बातें हैं, जो उन के पास मानने के लिये पहुंचाई गई हैं, जैसे कटोरों, और लोटों, और तांबे के बरतनों को धोना-मांझना।

5 इसलिये उन फरीसियों और शास्त्रियों ने उस से पूछा, कि तेरे चेले क्यों पुरनियों की रीतों पर नहीं चलते, और बिना हाथ धोए रोटी खाते हैं?

6 उस ने उन से कहा; कि यशायाह ने तुम कपटियों के विषय में बहुत ठीक भविष्यद्ववाणी की; जैसा लिखा है; कि ये लोग होठों से तो मेरा आदर करते हैं, पर उन का मन मुझ से दूर रहता है।

7 और ये व्यर्थ मेरी उपासना करते हैं, क्योंकि मनुष्यों की आज्ञाओं को धर्मोपदेश करके सिखाते हैं।

8 क्योंकि तुम परमेश्वर की आज्ञा को टालकर मनुष्यों की रीतियों को मानते हो।

9 और उस ने उन से कहा; तुम अपनी रीतियों को मानने के लिये परमेश्वर आज्ञा कैसी अच्छी तरह टाल देते हो!

10 क्योंकि मूसा ने कहा है कि अपने पिता और अपनी माता का आदर कर; ओर जो कोई पिता वा माता को बुरा कहे, वह अवश्य मार डाला जाए।

11 परन्तु तुम कहते हो कि यदि कोई अपने पिता वा माता से कहे, कि जो कुछ तुझे मुझ से लाभ पहुंच सकता था, वह कुरबान अर्थात संकल्प हो चुका।

12 तो तुम उस को उसके पिता वा उस की माता की कुछ सेवा करने नहीं देते।

13 इस प्रकार तुम अपनी रीतियों से, जिन्हें तुम ने ठहराया है, परमेश्वर का वचन टाल देते हो; और ऐसे ऐसे बहुत से काम करते हो।

14 और उस ने लोगों को अपने पास बुलाकर उन से कहा, तुम सब मेरी सुनो, और समझो।

15 ऐसी तो कोई वस्तु नहीं जो मनुष्य में बाहर से समाकर अशुद्ध करे; परन्तु जो वस्तुएं मनुष्य के भीतर से निकलती हैं, वे ही उसे अशुद्ध करती हैं।

16 यदि किसी के सुनने के कान हों तो सुन ले।

17 जब वह भीड़ के पास से घर में गया, तो उसके चेलों ने इस दृष्टान्त के विषय में उस से पूछा।

18 उस ने उन से कहा; क्या तुम भी ऐसे ना समझ हो? क्या तुम नहीं समझते, कि जो वस्तु बाहर से मनुष्य के भीतर जाती है, वह उसे अशुद्ध नहीं कर सकती?

19 क्योंकि वह उसके मन में नहीं, परन्तु पेट में जाती है, और संडास में निकल जाती है यह कहकर उस ने सब भोजन वस्तुओं को शुद्ध ठहराया।

20 फिर उस ने कहा; जो मनुष्य में से निकलता है, वही मनुष्य को अशुद्ध करता है।

21 क्योंकि भीतर से अर्थात मनुष्य के मन से, बुरी बुरी चिन्ता, व्यभिचार।

22 चोरी, हत्या, पर स्त्रीगमन, लोभ, दुष्टता, छल, लुचपन, कुदृष्टि, निन्दा, अभिमान, और मूर्खता निकलती हैं।

23 ये सब बुरी बातें भीतर ही से निकलती हैं और मनुष्य को अशुद्ध करती हैं॥

24 फिर वह वहां से उठकर सूर और सैदा के देशों में आया; और एक घर में गया, और चाहता था, कि कोई न जाने; परन्तु वह छिप न सका।

25 और तुरन्त एक स्त्री जिस की छोटी बेटी में अशुद्ध आत्मा थी, उस की चर्चा सुन कर आई, और उसके पांवों पर गिरी।

26 यह यूनानी और सूरूफिनीकी जाति की थी; और उस ने उस से बिनती की, कि मेरी बेटी में से दुष्टात्मा निकाल दे।

27 उस ने उस से कहा, पहिले लड़कों को तृप्त होने दे, क्योंकि लड़कों की रोटी लेकर कुत्तों के आगे डालना उचित नहीं है।

28 उस ने उस को उत्तर दिया; कि सच है प्रभु; तौ भी कुत्ते भी तो मेज के नीचे बालकों की रोटी का चूर चार खा लेते हैं।

29 उस ने उस से कहा; इस बात के कारण चली जा; दुष्टात्मा तेरी बेटी में से निकल गई है।

30 और उस ने अपने घर आकर देखा कि लड़की खाट पर पड़ी है, और दुष्टात्मा निकल गई है॥

31 फिर वह सूर और सैदा के देशों से निकलकर दिकपुलिस देश से होता हुआ गलील की झील पर पहुंचा।

32 और लोगों ने एक बहिरे को जो हक्ला भी था, उसके पास लाकर उस से बिनती की, कि अपना हाथ उस पर रखे।

33 तब वह उस को भीड़ से अलग ले गया, और अपनी उंगलियां उसके कानों में डालीं, और थूक कर उस की जीभ को छूआ।

34 और स्वर्ग की ओर देखकर आह भरी, और उस से कहा; इप्फत्तह, अर्थात खुल जा।

35 और उसके कान खुल गए, और उस की जीभ की गांठ भी खुल गई, और वह साफ साफ बोलने लगा।

36 तब उस ने उन्हें चिताया कि किसी से न कहना; परन्तु जितना उस ने उन्हें चिताया उतना ही वे और प्रचार करने लगे।

37 और वे बहुत ही आश्चर्य में होकर कहने लगे, उस ने जो कुछ किया सब अच्छा किया है; वह बहिरों को सुनने, की, और गूंगों को बोलने की शक्ति देता है॥

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.

1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,

2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;

6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?

11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.

12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?

13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.

14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.

15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;

16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:

17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.

18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.

19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,

20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.

21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,

22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.

23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,

30 Which was the son of Simeon, which was the son of Juda, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Jonan, which was the son of Eliakim,

31 Which was the son of Melea, which was the son of Menan, which was the son of Mattatha, which was the son of Nathan, which was the son of David,

32 Which was the son of Jesse, which was the son of Obed, which was the son of Booz, which was the son of Salmon, which was the son of Naasson,

33 Which was the son of Aminadab, which was the son of Aram, which was the son of Esrom, which was the son of Phares, which was the son of Juda,

34 Which was the son of Jacob, which was the son of Isaac, which was the son of Abraham, which was the son of Thara, which was the son of Nachor,

35 Which was the son of Saruch, which was the son of Ragau, which was the son of Phalec, which was the son of Heber, which was the son of Sala,

36 Which was the son of Cainan, which was the son of Arphaxad, which was the son of Sem, which was the son of Noe, which was the son of Lamech,

37 Which was the son of Mathusala, which was the son of Enoch, which was the son of Jared, which was the son of Maleleel, which was the son of Cainan,

38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.
