Marka Evaņg̒elijs 7
1 Un pie Viņa sapulcējās farizeji un kādi no tiem rakstu mācītājiem, no Jeruzālemes nākuši.
One day the Pharisees and some of the teachers of the Law who had come from Jerusalem gathered round Jesus.
2 Un redzēdami kādus no Viņa mācekļiem netīrām, tas ir, nemazgātām rokām maizi ēdam, tie tos rāja.
They had noticed that some of his disciples ate their food with their hands “defiled,” by which they meant unwashed.
3 Jo tie farizeji un visi Jūdi neēd, ja tie rokas daudzkārt nav mazgājuši, to vecaju likumus turēdami.
(For the Pharisees, and indeed all strict Jews, will not eat without first scrupulously washing their hands, holding in this to the traditions of their ancestors.
4 Un no tirgus nākot tie neēd, ja tie nav mazgājušies. Un vēl ir daudz, ko tie uzņēmušies darīt, dzeramu trauku un krūžu un vara rīku un gultu mazgāšanas.
When they come from market, they will not eat without first sprinkling themselves; and there are many other customs which they have inherited and hold to, such as the ceremonial washing of cups, and jugs, and copper pans).
5 Tad tie farizeji un rakstu mācītāji Viņam vaicāja: “Kāpēc Tavi mācekļi nedzīvo pēc vecaju likumiem, bet maizi ēd nemazgātām rokām?”
So the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law asked Jesus this question – ‘How is it that your disciples do not follow the traditions of our ancestors, but eat their food with defiled hands?’
6 Bet Viņš atbildēdams uz tiem sacīja: “Gan labi Jesaja par jums liekuļiem ir sludinājis, kā ir rakstīts: “Šie ļaudis ar lūpām mani godā, bet viņu sirds ir tālu no Manis nost.
His answer was, ‘It was well said by Isaiah when he prophesied about you hypocrites in the words – “This is a people who honour me with their lips, while their hearts are far removed from me;
7 Bet tie Mani velti cienī, mācīdami tādas mācības, kas ir cilvēku pavēles.”
but vainly do they worship me, For they teach but human precepts.”
8 Jo Dieva bausli atmetuši, jūs turat cilvēku likumus, krūžu un biķeru mazgāšanas, un darāt vēl daudz citas tādas lietas.”
You neglect God’s commandments and hold to human traditions.
9 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “It jauki jūs Dieva bausli atmetat, lai savu likumu turētu.
Wisely do you set aside God’s commandments,’ he exclaimed, ‘to keep your own traditions!
10 Jo Mozus ir sacījis: godā savu tēvu un savu māti; un kas ļaunu runā pret tēvu vai māti, tam būs mirt.
For while Moses said “Honour your father and your mother,” and “Let anyone who abuses their father or mother suffer death,”
11 Bet jūs sakāt: ja cilvēks uz tēvu vai māti saka: korban, tas ir: lai tas ir Dievam par upuri, kas tev no manis varētu par labu nākt; -
you say “If a person says to their father or mother ‘Whatever of mine might have been of service to you is Corban’” (which means “Set apart for God”) –
12 Tad jūs viņam vairs neļaujat nenieka darīt priekš tēva vai mātes,
why, then you do not allow them to do anything further for their father or mother!
13 Iznīcinādami Dieva vārdu ar savu likumu, ko jūs esat iecēluši. Un daudz tādas lietas jūs dariet.”
In this way you nullify the words of God by your traditions, which you hand down; and you do many similar things.’
14 Un tos ļaudis atkal pieaicinājis, Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Klausiet Mani visi un saprotiet.
Then Jesus called the people to him again, and said, ‘Listen to me, all of you, and mark my words.
15 Nekas cilvēku nevar apgānīt, kas no ārienes iekš tā ieiet, bet kas no tā iziet, tas cilvēku apgāna.
There is nothing external to a person, which by going into them can defile them; but the things that come out of a person are the things that defile them.’
16 Kam ausis ir dzirdēt, tas lai dzird.”
17 Un kad Viņš no tiem ļaudīm nogāja namā, Viņa mācekļi vaicāja pēc šās līdzības.
When Jesus went indoors, away from the crowd, his disciples began questioning him about this saying.
18 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Vai ir jūs esat tādas nesaprašas? Vai jūs neprotat, ka tas, kas no ārpuses cilvēkā ieiet, viņu nevar apgānīt?
‘What, do even you understand so little?’ exclaimed Jesus. ‘Don’t you see that there is nothing external to a person, which by going into a person, can defile them,
19 Jo tas neiet viņa sirdī, bet vēderā, un iziet pa zināmu ceļu, pa ko visa barība izkārnās.”
because it does not pass into his heart, but into his stomach, and is afterwards got rid of?’ – in saying this Jesus pronounced all food clean.
20 Bet Viņš sacīja: “Kas no cilvēka iziet, tas cilvēku apgāna.
‘It is what comes out from a person,’ he added, ‘that defiles them,
21 Jo no iekšienes, no cilvēka sirds, iziet niknas domas, laulības pārkāpšanas, maucības, slepkavības,
for it is from within, out of the hearts of people, that there come evil thoughts – sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
22 Zādzības, negausības, blēdības, viltība, nešķīstība, skauģa acs, Dieva zaimošana, lepnība, bezprātība.
greed, wickedness, deceit, indecency, envy, slander, haughtiness, folly;
23 Viss tāds ļaunums iziet no iekšienes un cilvēku apgāna.”
all these wicked things come from within, and do defile a person.’
24 Un no turienes cēlies, Viņš nogāja uz Tirus un Sidonas robežām. Un kādā namā iegājis, Viņš gribēja, ka neviens to nemanītu; bet nevarēja palikt paslēpts.
On leaving that place, Jesus went to the district of Tyre and Sidon. He went into a house, and did not wish anyone to know it, but could not escape notice.
25 Jo viena sieva, kuras meitiņai bija nešķīsts gars, par Viņu dzirdējusi, nāca un nometās priekš Viņa kājām.
For a woman, whose little daughter had a foul spirit in her, heard of him immediately, and came and threw herself at his feet –
26 Bet tā bija Grieķu sieva, no dzimuma Siro-Feniķiete, un Viņu lūdza, lai to velnu izdzītu no viņas meitas.
the woman was a foreigner, from Syrian Phoenicia – and she begged him to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27 Bet Jēzus uz to sacīja: “Lai papriekš bērni top paēdināti, jo neklājās bērniem maizi atņemt un sunīšiem mest priekšā.”
‘Let the children be satisfied first,’ answered Jesus. ‘For it is not fair to take the children’s food, and throw it to dogs.’
28 Un viņa atbildēja un uz To sacīja: “Tā gan ir, Kungs; bet tomēr sunīši ēd apakš galda no bērnu druskām.”
‘Yes, Master,’ she replied. ‘Even the dogs under the table do feed on the children’s crumbs.’
29 Un Viņš uz to sacīja: “Šī vārda dēļ ej! velns ir izbēdzis no tavas meitas.”
‘For saying that,’ he answered, ‘you may go. The demon has gone out of your daughter.’
30 Un nogājusi savās mājās, viņa atrada to meitiņu uz gultas guļam, un ka velns bija izbēdzis.
The woman went home, and found the child lying on her bed, and the demon gone.
31 Un atkal izgājis no Tirus un Sidonas robežām, Viņš nāca pie Galilejas jūras vidū starp to desmit pilsētu robežām.
On returning from the district of Tyre, Jesus went, by way of Sidon, to the Sea of Galilee, across the district of the Ten Towns.
32 Un pie Viņa atveda vienu kurlmēmu, un Viņu lūdza, ka tam uzliktu roku.
Some people brought to him a man who was deaf and almost dumb, and they begged Jesus to place his hand on him.
33 Un Viņš to ņēma no tiem ļaudīm savrup pie malas un lika Savus pirkstus viņa ausīs un izspļāvis aizskāra viņa mēli;
Jesus took him aside from the crowd quietly, put his fingers into the man’s ears, and touched his tongue with saliva.
34 Un skatījās uz debesi, nopūtās un sacīja uz to: “Epata,” tas ir: “Atveries!”
Then, looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to the man, ‘Ephphatha!’ which means “Be opened.”
35 Un tūdaļ viņa ausis atvērās, un viņa mēles saite tapa svabada, un viņš runāja pareizi.
The man’s ears were opened, the string of his tongue was freed, and he began to talk plainly.
36 Un Viņš tiem aizliedza, lai nevienam to nesaka; bet jo Viņš to aizliedza, jo vairāk tie to sludināja,
Jesus insisted on their not telling anyone; but the more he insisted, the more perseveringly they made it known,
37 Un brīnījās ļoti par to un sacīja: “Viņš visas lietas ir labi darījis; Viņš kurlus dara dzirdošus un mēmus runājošus.”
and a profound impression was made on the people. ‘He has done everything well!’ they exclaimed. ‘He makes even the deaf hear and the dumb speak!’
