आजकल परम सत्य (द एब्सोल्यूट) के बारे में कोई बात नहीं करता, यहाँ तक कि वे लोग भी नहीं जिनके मन में दृढ़ और गहरी धार्मिक आस्थाएँ हैं। संपूर्ण हीगलवादी परियोजना का हमारे लिए अब कोई प्रभाव या गूँज नहीं बची है, जैसी कि 1820 के दशक में जर्मनों के लिए और 1880 के आसपास ब्रिटिश तथा अमेरिकियों के लिए हुआ करती थी।

No one nowadays talks about the absolute, not even people with firm and deep religious convictions. The whole Hegelian project has no resonance for us, as it once had for the Germans in the 1820s and the British and Americans around the 1880s.

साल 1781 से 1793 का काल कई वजहों से बेहद अहम है, लेकिन मुख्य रूप से इसलिए क्योंकि यह आने वाली अगली सदी के लिए जर्मन दर्शन की मुख्य समस्या को बेहद स्पष्ट रूप से सामने रखता है। यह तर्क और आस्था के बीच का वही पुराना संघर्ष है जो जैकोबी और मेंडेलसोहन के बीच हुए सर्वेश्वरवाद विवाद के दौरान फिर से उभर आया था।

The years 1781 to 1793 are crucial for many reasons, but chiefly because they pose in an especially clear way the main problem of German philosophy for the next century. This is the old conflict between reason and faith which recurred during the pantheism controversy between Jacobi and Mendelssohn.

हम बस इतना कह सकते हैं कि चौथी शताब्दी से लेकर लगभग आठवीं शताब्दी तक चली एक लंबी प्रक्रिया के परिणामस्वरूप, पाठ (टेक्स्ट) का एक मानक रूप तैयार हुआ, जो आज हमारे पास मौजूद अधिकांश पांडुलिपियों (मैन्यूस्क्रिप्ट्स) में मिलता है। ग्रीक न्यू टेस्टामेंट की आज जितनी भी पांडुलिपियाँ मौजूद हैं, उनमें से कम से कम छियानवे प्रतिशत आठवीं शताब्दी के बाद की हैं; और उनमें से भी केवल कुछ ही ऐसी हैं जो पाठ के उन अन्य रूपों के निशान सुरक्षित रखती हैं जो मानक पाठ को अपनाने से पहले अस्तित्व में थे और जिनसे मिलकर यह मानक रूप तैयार हुआ था।

All we can say is that, as the result of a process which went on from the fourth century to about the eighth, a standard type of text was produced, which is found in the vast majority of the manuscripts that have come down to us. At least ninety-six per cent of the extant manuscripts of the Greek New Testament are later than the eighth century; and of those only a handful preserve traces of the other types of text which were in existence before the adoption of the standard text, and out of which it was created.

शुरुआत से लेकर अंत तक, टिंडेल का काम इसकी नींव बना, और उन्होंने किसी भी अन्य व्यक्ति से ज़्यादा उन लय और भाषा को गढ़ा और हमें सौंपा, जिनसे हम 'ऑथराइज्ड वर्ज़न' (बाइबल) में अच्छी तरह वाकिफ हैं।

दो यूनिवर्सिटी प्रेस द्वारा 17 मई 1881 को संशोधित न्यू टेस्टामेंट का प्रकाशन, प्रकाशन के इतिहास की सबसे सनसनीखेज घटनाओं में से एक था।

The publication of the Revised New Testament by the two University Presses on May 17, 1881, was the most sensational in the annals of publishing.

नया नियम (न्यू टेस्टामेंट) किसी एक प्राधिकारी चर्च द्वारा अपने सदस्यों को निर्देश देने के लिए जारी किया गया एकल दस्तावेज़ नहीं था। चारों सुसमाचार शायद एक तिहाई शताब्दी के दौरान अलग-अलग समय और स्थानों पर रचे गए थे, और कुछ समय के लिए हमारे प्रभु के जीवन से जुड़े अन्य वृत्तांतों के बीच अलग-अलग ही घूमते रहे (जिनमें से किसी अज्ञात गॉस्पेल का हाल ही में खोजा गया अंश भी एक हो सकता है)।

The New Testament was not produced as a single work issued by an authoritative Church for the instruction of its members. The four Gospels were composed in different times and places over perhaps a third of a century, and for a time circulated separately among a number of other narratives of our Lord's life (of which the newly discovered fragment of an unknown gospel may have been one).

प्रेरित (अपॉस्टल्स) बिखर चुके थे, और यहाँ तक कि यरुशलम में चर्च के नेताओं के पास भी एकरूपता लागू करने की न तो शक्ति थी और न ही साधन। ऐसे में, हमें यही कल्पना करनी होगी कि ईसाई साहित्य धीरे-धीरे, अनियमित रूप से और ऐसे तरीकों से फैला जिससे उसमें बदलाव आना लाजिमी था।

The apostles were scattered, and even the leaders of the Church in Jerusalem had neither the power nor the means to impose uniformity.In these circumstances, we must imagine the literature of Christianity as spreading gradually, irregularly, and in a manner which variations inevitable.

बाइबल के पाठ का इतिहास साहित्य का एक रोमांचक किस्सा है, एक ऐसा रोमांच जिसके परिणाम बेहद महत्वपूर्ण हैं; और हाल के सालों में हुई लगातार खोजों की बदौलत, हम दुनिया की किसी भी अन्य प्राचीन पुस्तक की तुलना में इसके बारे में ज़्यादा जानते हैं।

The history of the Bible text is a romance of literature, though it is a romance of which the consequences are of vital import; and thanks to the succession of discoveries which have been made of late years, we know more about it than of the history of any other ancient book in the world.

बाइबल का एक मानवीय इतिहास भी है और इसके पीछे एक दैवीय प्रेरणा भी। यह बहुत ही दिलचस्प इतिहास है और जो लोग अपनी बाइबल का सम्मान करते हैं, उन्हें कम से कम इसकी रूपरेखा तो पता होनी ही चाहिए, ताकि वे नास्तिकों और अज्ञानियों की आलोचनाओं का जवाब दे सकें।

The Bible has a human history as well as a divine inspiration. It is a history full of interest, and it is one which all those who value their Bible should know, at least in outline, if only that they may be able to meet the criticisms of sceptics and the ignorant.

मेरा हमेशा से मानना रहा है कि फोटोग्राफी व्यक्तिगत और व्याख्यात्मक होती है और यह निश्चित रूप से पूर्ण सत्य नहीं दिखाती, लेकिन मुझे लगता था कि सामाजिक और ऐतिहासिक संदर्भ के रूप में इसकी गरिमा को बचाए रखने और निखारने की जरूरत है... अब फोटो जर्नलिज्म गिरकर एक ऐसा माध्यम बनता जा रहा है जिसका मकसद सिर्फ चौंकाना, उत्तेजित करना, बेचना या तथ्यों को तोड़ना-मरोड़ना रह गया है।

I always believed that photography was subjective, interpretive and certainly did not represent the truth, but I did think that its status as a societal and historical referent needed to be both safeguarded and illuminated....now photojournalism is devolving into yet another medium perceived as intending to shock, titillate, sell, distort.

मैं उपनिवेशवाद के गलत पक्ष पर था। मेरी वंशावली मुख्य रूप से औपनिवेशिक अनुभव में फंसी रही है, पहले गुलामों के रूप में और फिर स्वतंत्र विषयों के रूप में, एक उत्तर-औपनिवेशिक अनुभव के साथ।

I was on the wrong side of colonization. My ancestry is mostly mired in having the colonial experience as colonized subjects, first as slaves and then as independent subjects with a post-colonial experience.

जब आजकल लोग कहते हैं कि एल्विस पहला श्वेत व्यक्ति था जिसकी आवाज़ अश्वेत जैसी थी, तो मुझे सिर पीटना पड़ता है; क्या कर सकते हैं? 1947 में 'दैट्स माय डिजायर' के समय लोग कहते थे कि मैं अकेला श्वेत व्यक्ति हूँ जिसकी आवाज़ अश्वेत जैसी है।

When people nowadays say that Elvis was the first white guy to sound black, I have to shake my head; what can you do? At the time of 'That's My Desire' 1947 they were saying that I was the only white guy around who sounded black.

जर्मनी इतना बड़ा देश है कि वह विश्व के मुद्दों पर चुपचाप किनारे नहीं बैठ सकता। सैन्य बल अब वह आखिरी विकल्प नहीं रहा जो कभी हुआ करता था, लेकिन सावधानी के साथ इसका इस्तेमाल किया जा सकता है।

Germany is too big to sit on the sidelines on world issues. Military force is not the ultima ratio it used to be, but it can be used, with care.

मध्यकालीन इंग्लैंड में एक ऐसा समय था जब वहाँ घूम-घूम कर गाने वाले चारण हुआ करते थे ... यदि फ्रैंक सिनात्रा 1190 या 1180 में हेनरी द्वितीय के शासनकाल में जीवित होते, तो वे उन्हीं घूम-घूम कर गाने वाले चारणों के समकालीन होते।

There was a time in medieval England when they had wandering minstrels ... A wandering minstrel would have been Frank Sinatra's counterpart had he lived during the time of Henry II in 1190 or 1180.

ग्रंथ कहते हैं कि व्यवस्थाविवरण (ड्यूटरोनॉमी) खो गया था, लेकिन आपका कहना है कि वह तभी लिखा गया था।

The text says Deuteronomy was lost, but you say it was written then.

मैं ग्रंथों को देखकर यह समझने की कोशिश करता हूँ कि क्या इनमें इतिहास को तलाशने का कोई ऐसा तरीका है जिससे इसे पौराणिक तत्वों से अलग किया जा सके, लेकिन मुझे इसके लिए कोई नियम नहीं मिलते।

I try to look at the texts and say: Is there a way that I can find history in the texts and separate it from what may be the mythological elements, and I don't find any rules for that.

मुझे सचमुच लगता है कि जोसिय्याह के समय में फसह (पासोवर) के प्राचीन रूप को वापस लाना बिल्कुल सही था और यह ऐतिहासिक रूप से भी सच है। जोसिय्याह वाकई एक अलग और पुरानी परंपरा की ओर लौटते हैं, उस दौर में जब एक केंद्रीय पवित्र स्थल होता था जहाँ कानून पढ़ा जाता था। लेकिन बाद में व्यवस्थाविवरण की पुस्तक में और भी बातें जुड़ती चली गईं।

I do think that the Josianic return to the archaic form of the Passover is appropriate and, indeed, historical. Josiah does go back to a different, earlier tradition, the time of a central sanctuary in which the law code was read. But then there were accretions to the Book of Deuteronomy.

इзраईल ने अपने भगवान को और उनके साथ अपने रिश्ते को व्यावहारिक और आपसी रिश्तों के दायरे में परिभाषित किया। काफी समय तक उन्होंने एक ईश्वर के सवाल को दार्शनिक और अमूर्त तरीके से नहीं देखा।
