Mateja Evaņg̒elijs 19
1 Un notikās, kad Jēzus šos vārdus bija pabeidzis, tad Viņš aizgāja no Galilejas un nāca gar Jardānes otru pusi uz Jūdu zemes robežām.
At the conclusion of this teaching, Jesus withdrew from Galilee, and went into that district of Judea which is on the other side of the Jordan.
2 Un daudz ļaužu Viņam gāja pakaļ, un Viņš tos tur darīja veselus.
Great crowds followed him, and he cured them there.
3 Un tie farizeji nāca pie Viņa, To kārdinādami, un uz Viņu sacīja: “Vai cilvēkam jebkādas vainas dēļ brīv no sievas šķirties?”
Presently some Pharisees came up to him, and, to test him, said, ‘Has a man the right to divorce his wife for every cause?’
4 Bet Viņš atbildēja un uz tiem sacīja: “Vai jūs neesat lasījuši, ka Radītājs iesākumā viņus radījis vīru un sievu,
‘Haven’t you read,’ replied Jesus, ‘that at the beginning the Creator “made them male and female,”
5 Un sacījis: “Tādēļ cilvēks atstās tēvu un māti un pieķersies pie savas sievas; un tie divi būs viena miesa.”
and said – “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother, and be united to his wife, and the man and his wife will become one”?
6 Tad nu tie nav vairs divi, bet viena miesa; ko nu Dievs savienojis, to nevienam cilvēkam nebūs šķirt.”
So that they are no longer two, but one. What God himself, then, has yoked together people must not separate.’
7 Tie uz Viņu saka: “Kā tad Mozus ir pavēlējis, šķiršanās grāmatu dot un šķirties.”
‘Why, then,’ they said, ‘did Moses direct that a man should serve his wife with a notice of separation and divorce her?’
8 Viņš uz tiem saka: “Mozus jūsu sirds cietības dēļ jums vaļu devis, no savām sievām šķirties, bet no iesākuma tas tā nav bijis.
‘Moses, owing to the hardness of your hearts,’ answered Jesus, ‘permitted you to divorce your wives, but that was not so at the beginning.
9 Bet Es jums saku, kas no savas sievas šķirās, ja ne maucības dēļ, un precē citu, tas pārkāpj laulību, un kas atšķirtu precē, tas pārkāpj laulību.”
But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of some serious sexual sin, and marries another woman, is guilty of adultery.’
10 Viņa mācekļi uz Viņu saka: “Ja tas tā ir vīra un sievas starpā, tad nav labi precēties.”
‘If that,’ said the disciples, ‘is the position of a man with regard to his wife, it is better not to marry.’
11 Bet Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Visi šo vārdu nespēj saņemt, bet tie vien, kam tas ir dots.
‘It is not everyone,’ replied Jesus, ‘who can accept this teaching, but only those who have been enabled to do so.
12 Jo tur ir rāmiti, kas no mātes miesām tādi dzimuši, un tur ir rāmiti, kas no cilvēkiem rāmiti; un tur ir rāmiti, kas paši rāmijušies Debesu valstības dēļ. Kas to spēj saņemt, tas lai saņem.”
Some men are incapable of marriage because they were born that way, or have been made so by other people, while there are others who stay single for the sake of the kingdom of Heaven. Accept this if you can.’
13 Tad bērniņi pie Viņa tapa pienesti, ka Viņš tiem rokas uzliktu un Dievu lūgtu; bet tie mācekļi tos aprāja.
Then some little children were brought to Jesus, for him to place his hands on them, and pray; but the disciples found fault with those who had brought them.
14 Bet Jēzus sacīja: “Laidiet tos bērniņus un neliedziet tiem, pie Manis nākt; jo tādiem pieder Debesu valstība.”
Jesus, however, said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for it is to the childlike that the kingdom of heaven belongs.’
15 Un Viņš tiem rokas uzlicis, aizgāja no turienes.
So he placed his hands on them, and then went on his way.
16 Un redzi, viens piegājis uz Viņu sacīja: “Labais Mācītāj, ko laba man būs darīt, lai es dabūju mūžīgu dzīvošanu?” (aiōnios g166)
A man came up to Jesus, and said, ‘Teacher, what good thing must I do to obtain eternal life?’ (aiōnios g166)
17 Un Viņš uz to sacīja: “Ko tu Mani sauc par labu? Neviens nav labs, kā vien Tas Vienīgais Dievs. Bet ja tu gribi dzīvībā ieiet, tad turi tos baušļus.”
‘Why ask me about goodness?’ answered Jesus. ‘There is but One who is good. If you want to enter the life, keep the commandments.’
18 Tas uz Viņu saka: Kādus?” Un Jēzus sacīja: “Šos: tev nebūs nokaut; tev nebūs laulību pārkāpt; tev nebūs zagt; tev nebūs nepatiesu liecību dot;
‘What commandments?’ asked the man. ‘These,’ answered Jesus, – ‘“You must not kill. You must not commit adultery. You must not steal. You must not say what is false about others.
19 Godā savu tēvu un māti; un tev būs savu tuvāko mīlēt, kā sevi pašu.”
Honour your father and your mother.” And “You must love your neighbour as you love yourself.”’
20 Tas jauneklis uz Viņu saka: “Visu to es esmu turējis no savas jaunības; kā man vēl trūkst?”
‘I have observed all these,’ said the young man. ‘What is still wanting in me?’
21 Jēzus uz to sacīja: “Ja tu gribi būt pilnīgs, tad noej, pārdod, kas tev ir, un dod nabagiem; tad tev būs manta debesīs; un tad nāc, staigā Man pakaļ.”
‘If you wish to be perfect,’ answered Jesus, ‘go and sell your property, and give to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven; then come and follow me.’
22 Bet tas jauneklis, šo vārdu dzirdējis, aizgāja noskumis, jo tam bija daudz mantas.
On hearing these words, the young man went away distressed, for he had great possessions.
23 Bet Jēzus uz Saviem mācekļiem sacīja: “Patiesi, Es jums saku: bagāts grūti ieies Debesu valstībā.
At this, Jesus said to his disciples, ‘I tell you that a rich person will find it hard to enter the kingdom of heaven!
24 Un atkal Es jums saku: vieglāki ir kamielim iet caur adatas aci, nekā bagātam kļūt Dieva valstībā.”
I say again, it is easier for a camel to get through a needle’s eye than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven!’
25 Un to dzirdējuši, Viņa mācekļi ļoti pārbijās un sacīja: “Kas tad var kļūt Debesu valstībā?”
On hearing this, the disciples exclaimed in great astonishment, ‘Who then can possibly be saved?’
26 Un Jēzus tos uzlūkoja un uz tiem sacīja: “Cilvēki to neiespēj, bet Dievam visas lietas iespējamas.”
But Jesus looked at them, and said, ‘With people this is impossible, but with God everything is possible.’ Then Peter turned and said to Jesus,
27 Tad Pēteris atbildēdams uz Viņu sacīja: “Redzi, mēs visu esam atstājuši un Tev gājuši pakaļ; kas mums par to būs?”
‘But we – we left everything, and followed you; what, then, will we have?’
28 Bet Jēzus uz tiem sacīja: “Patiesi, Es jums saku, ka jūs, kas Man pakaļ gājuši, tanī atdzimšanā, kad Tas Cilvēka Dēls sēdēs uz Sava godības krēsla, arī sēdēsiet uz divpadsmit krēsliem un tiesāsiet tās divpadsmit Israēla ciltis.
‘I tell you,’ answered Jesus, ‘that at the new creation, when the Son of Man takes his seat on his throne of glory, you who followed me will be seated on twelve thrones, as judges of the twelve tribes of Israel.
29 Un kas atstāj mājas vai brāļus, vai māsas, vai tēvu, vai māti, vai sievu, vai bērnus, vai tīrumus Mana Vārda dēļ, tas to ņems simtkārtīgi, un iemantos mūžīgu dzīvošanu. (aiōnios g166)
Everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or land, for my sake, will receive many times as much, and will gain eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
30 Bet daudzi, kas tie pirmie, būs tie pēdējie, un tie pēdējie būs tie pirmie.
But many who are first now will then be last, and those who are last will be first.
