1

तदानीं शिष्या यीशोः समीपमागत्य पृष्टवन्तः स्वर्गराज्ये कः श्रेष्ठः?

tadānīṁ śiṣyā yīśoḥ samīpamāgatya pṛṣṭavantaḥ svargarājye kaḥ śreṣṭhaḥ?

At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
2

ततो यीशुः क्षुद्रमेकं बालकं स्वसमीपमानीय तेषां मध्ये निधाय जगाद,

tato yīśuḥ kṣudramekaṁ bālakaṁ svasamīpamānīya teṣāṁ madhye nidhāya jagāda,

And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
3

युष्मानहं सत्यं ब्रवीमि, यूयं मनोविनिमयेन क्षुद्रबालवत् न सन्तः स्वर्गराज्यं प्रवेष्टुं न शक्नुथ।

yuṣmānahaṁ satyaṁ bravīmi, yūyaṁ manovinimayena kṣudrabālavat na santaḥ svargarājyaṁ praveṣṭuṁ na śaknutha|

And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4

यः कश्चिद् एतस्य क्षुद्रबालकस्य सममात्मानं नम्रीकरोति, सएव स्वर्गराजये श्रेष्ठः।

yaḥ kaścid etasya kṣudrabālakasya samamātmānaṁ namrīkaroti, saeva svargarājaye śreṣṭhaḥ|

Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5

यः कश्चिद् एतादृशं क्षुद्रबालकमेकं मम नाम्नि गृह्लाति, स मामेव गृह्लाति।

yaḥ kaścid etādṛśaṁ kṣudrabālakamekaṁ mama nāmni gṛhlāti, sa māmeva gṛhlāti|

And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.
6

किन्तु यो जनो मयि कृतविश्वासानामेतेषां क्षुद्रप्राणिनाम् एकस्यापि विध्निं जनयति, कण्ठबद्धपेषणीकस्य तस्य सागरागाधजले मज्जनं श्रेयः।

kintu yo jano mayi kṛtaviśvāsānāmeteṣāṁ kṣudraprāṇinām ekasyāpi vidhniṁ janayati, kaṇṭhabaddhapeṣaṇīkasya tasya sāgarāgādhajale majjanaṁ śreyaḥ|

But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
7

विघ्नात् जगतः सन्तापो भविष्यति, विघ्नोऽवश्यं जनयिष्यते, किन्तु येन मनुजेन विघ्नो जनिष्यते तस्यैव सन्तापो भविष्यति।

vighnāt jagataḥ santāpo bhaviṣyati, vighno'vaśyaṁ janayiṣyate, kintu yena manujena vighno janiṣyate tasyaiva santāpo bhaviṣyati|

Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!
8

तस्मात् तव करश्चरणो वा यदि त्वां बाधते, तर्हि तं छित्त्वा निक्षिप, द्विकरस्य द्विपदस्य वा तवानप्तवह्नौ निक्षेपात्, खञ्जस्य वा छिन्नहस्तस्य तव जीवने प्रवेशो वरं।

tasmāt tava karaścaraṇo vā yadi tvāṁ bādhate, tarhi taṁ chittvā nikṣipa, dvikarasya dvipadasya vā tavānaptavahnau nikṣepāt, khañjasya vā chinnahastasya tava jīvane praveśo varaṁ|

Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.
9

अपरं तव नेत्रं यदि त्वां बाधते, तर्हि तदप्युत्पाव्य निक्षिप, द्विनेत्रस्य नरकाग्नौ निक्षेपात् काणस्य तव जीवने प्रवेशो वरं।

aparaṁ tava netraṁ yadi tvāṁ bādhate, tarhi tadapyutpāvya nikṣipa, dvinetrasya narakāgnau nikṣepāt kāṇasya tava jīvane praveśo varaṁ|

And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.
10

तस्मादवधद्धं, एतेषां क्षुद्रप्राणिनाम् एकमपि मा तुच्छीकुरुत,

tasmādavadhaddhaṁ, eteṣāṁ kṣudraprāṇinām ekamapi mā tucchīkuruta,

Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
11

यतो युष्मानहं तथ्यं ब्रवीमि, स्वर्गे तेषां दूता मम स्वर्गस्थस्य पितुरास्यं नित्यं पश्यन्ति। एवं ये ये हारितास्तान् रक्षितुं मनुजपुत्र आगच्छत्।

yato yuṣmānahaṁ tathyaṁ bravīmi, svarge teṣāṁ dūtā mama svargasthasya piturāsyaṁ nityaṁ paśyanti| evaṁ ye ye hāritāstān rakṣituṁ manujaputra āgacchat|

For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.
12

यूयमत्र किं विविंग्घ्वे? कस्यचिद् यदि शतं मेषाः सन्ति, तेषामेको हार्य्यते च, तर्हि स एकोनशतं मेषान् विहाय पर्व्वतं गत्वा तं हारितमेकं किं न मृगयते?

yūyamatra kiṁ viviṁgghve? kasyacid yadi śataṁ meṣāḥ santi, teṣāmeko hāryyate ca, tarhi sa ekonaśataṁ meṣān vihāya parvvataṁ gatvā taṁ hāritamekaṁ kiṁ na mṛgayate?

How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?
13

यदि च कदाचित् तन्मेषोद्देशं लमते, तर्हि युष्मानहं सत्यं कथयामि, सोऽविपथगामिभ्य एकोनशतमेषेभ्योपि तदेकहेतोरधिकम् आह्लादते।

yadi ca kadācit tanmeṣoddeśaṁ lamate, tarhi yuṣmānahaṁ satyaṁ kathayāmi, so'vipathagāmibhya ekonaśatameṣebhyopi tadekahetoradhikam āhlādate|

And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.
14

तद्वद् एतेषां क्षुद्रप्राएिनाम् एकोपि नश्यतीति युष्माकं स्वर्गस्थपितु र्नाभिमतम्।

tadvad eteṣāṁ kṣudraprāeिnām ekopi naśyatīti yuṣmākaṁ svargasthapitu rnābhimatam|

Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.
15

यद्यपि तव भ्राता त्वयि किमप्यपराध्यति, तर्हि गत्वा युवयोर्द्वयोः स्थितयोस्तस्यापराधं तं ज्ञापय। तत्र स यदि तव वाक्यं शृणोति, तर्हि त्वं स्वभ्रातरं प्राप्तवान्,

yadyapi tava bhrātā tvayi kimapyaparādhyati, tarhi gatvā yuvayordvayoḥ sthitayostasyāparādhaṁ taṁ jñāpaya| tatra sa yadi tava vākyaṁ śṛṇoti, tarhi tvaṁ svabhrātaraṁ prāptavān,

Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
16

किन्तु यदि न शृणोति, तर्हि द्वाभ्यां त्रिभि र्वा साक्षीभिः सर्व्वं वाक्यं यथा निश्चितं जायते, तदर्थम् एकं द्वौ वा साक्षिणौ गृहीत्वा याहि।

kintu yadi na śṛṇoti, tarhi dvābhyāṁ tribhi rvā sākṣībhiḥ sarvvaṁ vākyaṁ yathā niścitaṁ jāyate, tadartham ekaṁ dvau vā sākṣiṇau gṛhītvā yāhi|

But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
17

तेन स यदि तयो र्वाक्यं न मान्यते, तर्हि समाजं तज्ज्ञापय, किन्तु यदि समाजस्यापि वाक्यं न मान्यते,तर्हि स तव समीपे देवपूजकइव चण्डालइव च भविष्यति।

tena sa yadi tayo rvākyaṁ na mānyate, tarhi samājaṁ tajjñāpaya, kintu yadi samājasyāpi vākyaṁ na mānyate,tarhi sa tava samīpe devapūjaka̮iva caṇḍāla̮iva ca bhaviṣyati|

And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.
18

अहं युष्मान् सत्यं वदामि, युष्माभिः पृथिव्यां यद् बध्यते तत् स्वर्गे भंत्स्यते; मेदिन्यां यत् भोच्यते, स्वर्गेऽपि तत् मोक्ष्यते।

ahaṁ yuṣmān satyaṁ vadāmi, yuṣmābhiḥ pṛthivyāṁ yad badhyate tat svarge bhaṁtsyate; medinyāṁ yat bhocyate, svarge'pi tat mokṣyate|

Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
19

पुनरहं युष्मान् वदामि, मेदिन्यां युष्माकं यदि द्वावेकवाक्यीभूय किञ्चित् प्रार्थयेते, तर्हि मम स्वर्गस्थपित्रा तत् तयोः कृते सम्पन्नं भविष्यति।

punarahaṁ yuṣmān vadāmi, medinyāṁ yuṣmākaṁ yadi dvāvekavākyībhūya kiñcit prārthayete, tarhi mama svargasthapitrā tat tayoḥ kṛte sampannaṁ bhaviṣyati|

Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
20

यतो यत्र द्वौ त्रयो वा मम नान्नि मिलन्ति, तत्रैवाहं तेषां मध्येऽस्मि।

yato yatra dvau trayo vā mama nānni milanti, tatraivāhaṁ teṣāṁ madhye'smi|

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
21

तदानीं पितरस्तत्समीपमागत्य कथितवान् हे प्रभो, मम भ्राता मम यद्यपराध्यति, तर्हि तं कतिकृत्वः क्षमिष्ये?

tadānīṁ pitarastatsamīpamāgatya kathitavān he prabho, mama bhrātā mama yadyaparādhyati, tarhi taṁ katikṛtvaḥ kṣamiṣye?

Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
22

किं सप्तकृत्वः? यीशुस्तं जगाद, त्वां केवलं सप्तकृत्वो यावत् न वदामि, किन्तु सप्तत्या गुणितं सप्तकृत्वो यावत्।

kiṁ saptakṛtvaḥ? yīśustaṁ jagāda, tvāṁ kevalaṁ saptakṛtvo yāvat na vadāmi, kintu saptatyā guṇitaṁ saptakṛtvo yāvat|

Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.
23

अपरं निजदासैः सह जिगणयिषुः कश्चिद् राजेव स्वर्गराजयं।

aparaṁ nijadāsaiḥ saha jigaṇayiṣuḥ kaścid rājeva svargarājayaṁ|

Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.
24

आरब्धे तस्मिन् गणने सार्द्धसहस्रमुद्रापूरितानां दशसहस्रपुटकानाम् एकोऽघमर्णस्तत्समक्षमानायि।

ārabdhe tasmin gaṇane sārddhasahasramudrāpūritānāṁ daśasahasrapuṭakānām eko'ghamarṇastatsamakṣamānāyi|

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.
25

तस्य परिशोधनाय द्रव्याभावात् परिशोधनार्थं स तदीयभार्य्यापुत्रादिसर्व्वस्वञ्च विक्रीयतामिति तत्प्रभुरादिदेश।

tasya pariśodhanāya dravyābhāvāt pariśodhanārthaṁ sa tadīyabhāryyāputrādisarvvasvañca vikrīyatāmiti tatprabhurādideśa|

But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
26

तेन स दासस्तस्य पादयोः पतन् प्रणम्य कथितवान् , हे प्रभो भवता घैर्य्ये कृते मया सर्व्वं परिशोधिष्यते।

tena sa dāsastasya pādayoḥ patan praṇamya kathitavān , he prabho bhavatā ghairyye kṛte mayā sarvvaṁ pariśodhiṣyate|

The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
27

तदानीं दासस्य प्रभुः सकरुणः सन् सकलर्णं क्षमित्वा तं तत्याज।

tadānīṁ dāsasya prabhuḥ sakaruṇaḥ san sakalarṇaṁ kṣamitvā taṁ tatyāja|

Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.
28

किन्तु तस्मिन् दासे बहि र्याते, तस्य शतं मुद्राचतुर्थांशान् यो धारयति, तं सहदासं दृष्द्वा तस्य कण्ठं निष्पीड्य गदितवान्, मम यत् प्राप्यं तत् परिशोधय।

kintu tasmin dāse bahi ryāte, tasya śataṁ mudrācaturthāṁśān yo dhārayati, taṁ sahadāsaṁ dṛṣdvā tasya kaṇṭhaṁ niṣpīḍya gaditavān, mama yat prāpyaṁ tat pariśodhaya|

But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.
29

तदा तस्य सहदासस्तत्पादयोः पतित्वा विनीय बभाषे, त्वया धैर्य्ये कृते मया सर्व्वं परिशोधिष्यते।

tadā tasya sahadāsastatpādayoḥ patitvā vinīya babhāṣe, tvayā dhairyye kṛte mayā sarvvaṁ pariśodhiṣyate|

And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
30

तथापि स तत् नाङगीकृत्य यावत् सर्व्वमृणं न परिशोधितवान् तावत् तं कारायां स्थापयामास।

tathāpi sa tat nāṅagīkṛtya yāvat sarvvamṛṇaṁ na pariśodhitavān tāvat taṁ kārāyāṁ sthāpayāmāsa|

And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.
31

तदा तस्य सहदासास्तस्यैतादृग् आचरणं विलोक्य प्रभोः समीपं गत्वा सर्व्वं वृत्तान्तं निवेदयामासुः।

tadā tasya sahadāsāstasyaitādṛg ācaraṇaṁ vilokya prabhoḥ samīpaṁ gatvā sarvvaṁ vṛttāntaṁ nivedayāmāsuḥ|

So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.
32

तदा तस्य प्रभुस्तमाहूय जगाद, रे दुष्ट दास, त्वया मत्सन्निधौ प्रार्थिते मया तव सर्व्वमृणं त्यक्तं;

tadā tasya prabhustamāhūya jagāda, re duṣṭa dāsa, tvayā matsannidhau prārthite mayā tava sarvvamṛṇaṁ tyaktaṁ;

Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:
33

यथा चाहं त्वयि करुणां कृतवान्, तथैव त्वत्सहदासे करुणाकरणं किं तव नोचितं?

yathā cāhaṁ tvayi karuṇāṁ kṛtavān, tathaiva tvatsahadāse karuṇākaraṇaṁ kiṁ tava nocitaṁ?

Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?
34

इति कथयित्वा तस्य प्रभुः क्रुद्ध्यन् निजप्राप्यं यावत् स न परिशोधितवान्, तावत् प्रहारकानां करेषु तं समर्पितवान्।

iti kathayitvā tasya prabhuḥ kruddhyan nijaprāpyaṁ yāvat sa na pariśodhitavān, tāvat prahārakānāṁ kareṣu taṁ samarpitavān|

And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.
35

यदि यूयं स्वान्तःकरणैः स्वस्वसहजानाम् अपराधान् न क्षमध्वे, तर्हि मम स्वर्गस्यः पितापि युष्मान् प्रतीत्थं करिष्यति।

yadi yūyaṁ svāntaḥkaraṇaiḥ svasvasahajānām aparādhān na kṣamadhve, tarhi mama svargasyaḥ pitāpi yuṣmān pratītthaṁ kariṣyati|

So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
