< Matthew 12 >

1 At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
Ob tistem času je šel Jezus na šabatni dan skozi žitna polja, njegovi učenci pa so bili lačni in začeli smukati žitno klasje ter jesti.
2 But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, “Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”
Toda ko so to videli farizeji, so mu rekli: »Glej, tvoji učenci delajo to, česar ni zakonito početi na šabatni dan.«
3 But he said to them, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him:
Toda rekel jim je: »Ali niste brali, kaj je storil David, ko je bil lačen in tisti, ki so bili z njim,
4 how he entered into God’s house and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?
kako je vstopil v Božjo hišo in jedel hlebe navzočnosti, ki jih ni bilo dovoljeno jesti njemu niti ne tistim, ki so bili z njim, temveč samo duhovnikom?
5 Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?
Ali niste brali v postavi, kako to, da ob šabatnih dneh duhovniki v templju skrunijo šabat in so brez krivde?
6 But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.
Toda povem vam: ›Da je na tem kraju nekdo večji kakor tempelj.‹
7 But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn’t have condemned the guiltless.
Toda če bi vedeli, kaj to pomeni: ›Usmiljenje hočem imeti in ne žrtve, ‹ ne bi obsojali nedolžnih.
8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
Kajti Sin človekov je Gospod celó šabatnemu dnevu.«
9 He departed from there and went into their synagogue.
In ko je odšel od tam, je šel v njihovo sinagogo.
10 And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” so that they might accuse him.
In glej, tam je bil človek, ki je imel svojo roko izsušeno. In da bi ga lahko obdolžili, so ga vprašali, rekoč: »Ali je zakonito zdraviti na šabatne dneve?«
11 He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won’t he grab on to it and lift it out?
In rekel jim je: »Kateri človek bi bil tukaj med vami, ki bi imel eno ovco in če bi ta na šabatni dan padla v jamo ali je ne bi prijel ter je dvignil ven?
12 Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.”
Koliko bolj je potem človek boljši kakor ovca? Zaradi tega je na šabatne dneve zakonito delati dobro.«
13 Then he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other.
Tedaj reče človeku: »Iztegni svojo roko.« In ta jo je iztegnil in bila je v celoti ozdravljena, podobno kakor druga.
14 But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.
Potem so farizeji odšli ven in imeli zborovanje proti njemu, kako bi ga lahko pokončali.
15 Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all,
Toda ko je Jezus to izvedel, se je umaknil od tam in sledile so mu velike množice in vse je ozdravil
16 and commanded them that they should not make him known,
ter jim naročil, da naj ga ne razglašajo,
17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
da bi se lahko izpolnilo, kar je bilo rečeno po preroku Izaiju, rekoč:
18 “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit on him. He will proclaim justice to the nations.
›Glej moj služabnik, ki sem ga izbral, moj ljubljeni, v katerem je moja duša zelo zadovoljna. Svojega duha bom položil nadenj in oznanil bo sodbo poganom.
19 He will not strive, nor shout, neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
Ne bo se ne prepiral niti ne vpil niti na ulicah nihče ne bo slišal njegovega glasu.
20 He won’t break a bruised reed. He won’t quench a smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory.
Poškodovanega trsta ne bo zlomil in kadečega stenja ne bo pogasil, dokler ne privede sodbe do zmage.
21 In his name, the nations will hope.”
In v njegovo ime bodo zaupali pogani.‹
22 Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him; and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
Tedaj je bil k njemu priveden nekdo obseden s hudičem, slep in nem in ga je ozdravil, do take mere, da je slepi in nemi tako govoril kakor videl.
23 All the multitudes were amazed, and said, “Can this be the son of David?”
In vsa množica je bila osupla ter rekla: »Ali ni ta Davidov sin?«
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
Toda ko so farizeji to slišali, so rekli: »Ta ne izganja hudičev, razen z Bélcebubom, princem hudičev.«
25 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
Jezus pa je poznal njihove misli in jim rekel: »Vsako kraljestvo, razdeljeno zoper sebe, je privedeno v opustošenje in nobeno mesto ali hiša, razdeljena zoper sebe, ne bosta obstala.
26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
In če Satan izganja Satana, je razdeljen zoper sebe; kako bo potem obstalo njegovo kraljestvo?
27 If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
In če z Bélcebubom izganjam hudiče, s kom jih izganjajo vaši otroci? Zatorej bodo oni vaši sodniki.
28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come upon you.
Toda če z Božjim Duhom izganjam hudiče, potem je k vam prišlo Božje kraljestvo.
29 Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.
Kako lahko sicer nekdo vstopi v hišo močnega in opleni njegove dobrine, razen če najprej ne zveže močnega? In tedaj bo oplenil njegovo hišo.
30 “He who is not with me is against me, and he who doesn’t gather with me, scatters.
Kdor ni z menoj, je proti meni; in kdor ne zbira z menoj, razsipa na široko.
31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
Zatorej vam pravim: ›Vsake vrste greh in bogokletje bo ljudem odpuščeno, toda bogokletje zoper Svetega Duha ljudem ne bo odpuščeno.
32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
In kdorkoli govori besedo zoper Sina človekovega, mu bo to odpuščeno; toda kdorkoli govori zoper Svetega Duha, mu ne bo odpuščeno ne na tem svetu ne v svetu, ki pride.‹ (aiōn g165)
33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.
Ali drevo dobro obrodi in je njegov sad dober, ali pa drevo slabo obrodi in je njegov sad slab; kajti drevo se spozna po njegovem sadu.
34 You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
Oh gadji rod, kako lahko vi, ki ste hudobni, govorite dobre besede? Kajti iz obilja srca usta govoré.
35 The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things.
Dober človek iz dobrega zaklada srca prinaša dobre stvari, hudobnež pa iz zlega zaklada prinaša zle stvari.
36 I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.
Toda povem vam: ›Za vsako prazno besedo, ki jo bodo ljudje izgovorili, bodo na dan sodbe o tem dajali obračun.‹
37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Kajti po svojih besedah boš opravičen in po svojih besedah boš obsojen.«
38 Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”
Tedaj so nekateri izmed pisarjev in farizejev odgovorili, rekoč: »Učitelj, od tebe želimo videti znamenje.«
39 But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
Toda odgovoril jim je in rekel: »Hudoben in zakonolomen rod išče znamenje, pa mu ne bo dano nobeno drugo znamenje, razen znamenja preroka Jona.
40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Kajti tako, kakor je bil Jona tri dni in tri noči v kitovem trebuhu, tako bo Sin človekov tri dni in tri noči v osrčju zemlje.
41 The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here.
Ljudje iz Niniv bodo ob sodbi vstali s tem rodom in ga obsodili, ker so se ob Jonovem oznanjevanju pokesali; in glejte, tukaj je večji kakor Jona.
42 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.
Kraljica z juga bo ob sodbi vstala s tem rodom in ga obsodila, kajti prišla je iz najbolj oddaljenih krajev zemlje, da sliši Salomonovo modrost; in glejte, tukaj je večji kakor Salomon.
43 “When an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, and doesn’t find it.
Kadar je nečisti duh odšel iz človeka, hodi po suhih krajih, iščoč počitka, in ga ne najde.
44 Then he says, ‘I will return into my house from which I came;’ and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
Potem reče: ›Vrnil se bom v svojo hišo, od koder sem izšel.‹ In ko pride, jo najde prazno, pometeno in okrašeno.
45 Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation.”
Tedaj gre in s seboj vzame sedem drugih duhov, zlobnejših kakor on sam in vstopijo ter prebivajo tam in končno stanje tega človeka je slabše kakor prvo. Točno tako bo tudi temu zlobnemu rodu.«
46 While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
Medtem ko je še govoril množici, glej, so stali zunaj njegova mati in njegovi bratje, želeč govoriti z njim.
47 One said to him, “Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”
Potem mu je nekdo rekel: »Glej, tvoja mati in tvoji bratje stojijo zunaj in želijo govoriti s teboj.«
48 But he answered him who spoke to him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”
Toda odgovoril je in rekel tistemu, ki mu je povedal: »Kdo je moja mati? In kdo so moji bratje?«
49 He stretched out his hand toward his disciples, and said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers!
In svojo roko je iztegnil proti svojim učencem ter rekel: »Glejte, moja mati in moji bratje!
50 For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
Kajti kdorkoli bo izvrševal voljo mojega Očeta, ki je v nebesih, ta je moj brat in sestra in mati.«
