Acts 16:16-39 in Hindi

16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying:

17 The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.

18 And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.

19 And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,

20 And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,

21 And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.

22 And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.

23 And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:

24 Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.

27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.

28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.

29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.

33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.

34 And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.

35 And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.

36 And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.

37 But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.

38 And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.

39 And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.

16 जब हम प्रार्थना करने की जगह जा रहे थे, तो हमें एक दासी मिली जिस में भावी कहने वाली आत्मा थी; और भावी कहने से अपने स्वामियों के लिये बहुत कुछ कमा लाती थी।
And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying:

17 वह पौलुस के और हमारे पीछे आकर चिल्लाने लगी कि ये मनुष्य परमप्रधान परमेश्वर के दास हैं, जो हमें उद्धार के मार्ग की कथा सुनाते हैं।
The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.

18 वह बहुत दिन तक ऐसा ही करती रही, परन्तु पौलुस दु:खित हुआ, और मुंह फेर कर उस आत्मा से कहा, मैं तुझे यीशु मसीह के नाम से आज्ञा देता हूं, कि उस में से निकल जा और वह उसी घड़ी निकल गई॥
And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.

19 जब उसके स्वामियों ने देखा, कि हमारी कमाई की आशा जाती रही, तो पौलुस और सीलास को पकड़ कर चौक में प्राधानों के पास खींच ले गए।
And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,

20 और उन्हें फौजदारी के हाकिमों के पास ले जाकर कहा; ये लोग जो यहूदी हैं, हमारे नगर में बड़ी हलचल मचा रहे हैं।
And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,

21 और ऐसे व्यवहार बता रहे हैं, जिन्हें ग्रहण करना या मानना हम रोमियों के लिये ठीक नहीं।
And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.

22 तब भीड़ के लोग उन के विरोध में इकट्ठे होकर चढ़ आए, और हाकिमों ने उन के कपड़े फाड़कर उतार डाले, और उन्हें बेंत मारने की आज्ञा दी।
And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.

23 और बहुत बेंत लगवाकर उन्हें बन्दीगृह में डाला; और दारोगा को आज्ञा दी, कि उन्हें चौकसी से रखे।
And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:

24 उस ने ऐसी आज्ञा पाकर उन्हें भीतर की कोठरी में रखा और उन के पांव काठ में ठोक दिए।
Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

25 आधी रात के लगभग पौलुस और सीलास प्रार्थना करते हुए परमेश्वर के भजन गा रहे थे, और बन्धुए उन की सुन रहे थे।
And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

26 कि इतने में एकाएक बड़ा भुईडोल हुआ, यहां तक कि बन्दीगृह की नेव हिल गईं, और तुरन्त सब द्वार खुल गए; और सब के बन्धन खुल पड़े।
And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.

27 और दारोगा जाग उठा, और बन्दीगृह के द्वार खुले देखकर समझा कि बन्धुए भाग गए, सो उस ने तलवार खींचकर अपने आप को मार डालना चाहा।
And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.

28 परन्तु पौलुस ने ऊंचे शब्द से पुकारकर कहा; अपने आप को कुछ हानि न पहुंचा, क्योंकि हम सब यहां हैं।
But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.

29 तब वह दीया मंगवाकर भीतर लपक गया, और कांपता हुआ पौलुस और सीलास के आगे गिरा।
Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

30 और उन्हें बाहर लाकर कहा, हे साहिबो, उद्धार पाने के लिये मैं क्या करूं?
And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

31 उन्होंने कहा, प्रभु यीशु मसीह पर विश्वास कर, तो तू और तेरा घराना उद्धार पाएगा।
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

32 और उन्होंने उस को, और उसके सारे घर के लोगों को प्रभु का वचन सुनाया।
And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.

33 और रात को उसी घड़ी उस ने उन्हें ले जाकर उन के घाव धोए, और उस ने अपने सब लोगों समेत तुरन्त बपतिस्मा लिया।
And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.

34 और उस ने उन्हें अपने घर में ले जाकर, उन के आगे भोजन रखा और सारे घराने समेत परमेश्वर पर विश्वास करके आनन्द किया॥
And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.

35 जब दिन हुआ तक हाकिमों ने प्यादों के हाथ कहला भेजा कि उन मनुष्यों को छोड़ दो।
And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.

36 दारोगा ने ये बातें पौलुस से कह सुनाईं, कि हाकिमों ने तुम्हारे छोड़ देने की आज्ञा भेज दी है, सो अब निकलकर कुशल से चले जाओ।
And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.

37 परन्तु पौलुस ने उस से कहा, उन्होंने हमें जो रोमी मनुष्य हैं, दोषी ठहाराए बिना, लोगों के साम्हने मारा, और बन्दीगृह में डाला, और अब क्या हमें चुपके से निकाल देते हैं? ऐसा नहीं, परन्तु वे आप आकर हमें बाहर ले जाएं।
But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.

38 प्यादों ने ये बातें हाकिमों से कह दीं, और वे यह सुनकर कि रोमी हैं, डर गए।
And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.

39 और आकर उन्हें मनाया, और बाहर ले जाकर बिनती की कि नगर से चले जाएं।
And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.
