Luke 14
1 And it happened, when he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.
In pripetilo se je, medtem ko je odšel v hišo enega izmed vodilnih farizejev, da bi na šabatni dan jedel kruh, da so ga ti opazovali.
2 And look, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.
In glej, pred njim je bil nek človek, ki je imel vodenico.
3 Jesus, answering, spoke to the Law scholars and Pharisees, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?"
In Jezus je izvedencem v postavi in farizejem odgovarjal ter govoril, rekoč: »Ali je zakonito zdraviti na šabatni dan?«
4 But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.
Oni pa so molčali. In prijel ga je in ozdravil ter ga pustil oditi,
5 He answered them, "Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, would not immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?"
in odgovoril jim je, rekoč: »Komu izmed vas pade osel ali vol v jamo in ga ne bo nemudoma, na šabatni dan, izvlekel ven?«
6 But they could make no reply to this.
In ponovno mu niso mogli odgovoriti na te stvari.
7 He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,
In ko je opazil, kako izbirajo vodilna mesta, je tem, ki so bili povabljeni, podal prispodobo, rekoč jim:
8 "When you are invited by anyone to a marriage feast, do not sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,
»Kadar te katerikoli človek povabi na poroko, se ne usedi na najvišje mesto, da ne bi le-ta povabil častitljivejšega človeka, kakor si ti,
9 and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, 'Make room for this person.' Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.
in ne bi prišel ta, ki je povabil tebe in njega in ti rekel: ›Daj prostor temu človeku, ‹ ti pa si boš s sramoto začel jemati najnižji prostor.
10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, 'Friend, move up higher.' Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.
Toda kadar si povabljen, pojdi in se usedi na najnižji prostor, da ti lahko reče, kdor te je povabil, ko pride k tebi: ›Prijatelj, pojdi višje, ‹ potem boš imel oboževanje v prisotnosti teh, ki s teboj sedijo pri obedu.
11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted."
Kajti kdorkoli se povišuje, bo ponižan, kdor pa se ponižuje, bo povišan.«
12 He also said to the one who had invited him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, do not call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.
Potem je prav tako rekel tistemu, ki ga je povabil: »Kadar pripravljaš kosilo ali večerjo, ne pokliči svojih prijateljev, niti svojih bratov, niti svojih sorodnikov, niti svojih bogatih sosedov, da te ne bi tudi oni povabili in ti povrnili.
13 But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;
Toda kadar pripravljaš pojedino, pokliči revne, pohabljene, hrome, slepe
14 and you will be blessed, because they do not have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous."
in boš blagoslovljen, ker ti ne morejo poplačati, kajti poplačano ti bo ob vstajenju pravičnih.«
15 Now when one of those who were reclining with him heard these things, he said to him, "Blessed is he who will eat bread in the kingdom of God."
In ko je eden izmed teh, ki je pri obedu sedel z njim, slišal te stvari, mu je rekel: »Blagoslovljen je, kdor bo jedel kruh v Božjem kraljestvu.«
16 But he said to him, "A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.
On pa mu je potem rekel: »Neki človek je priredil veliko večerjo in povabil mnoge.
17 And he sent his servant at the hour for supper to tell those who were invited, 'Come, for everything is ready now.'
Ob času večerje pa je poslal svojega služabnika, da pove tem, ki so bili povabljeni: ›Pridite, kajti sedaj so vse stvari pripravljene.‹
18 They all as one began to make excuses. "The first said to him, 'I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.'
Vsi pa so se začeli soglasno opravičevati. Prvi mu je rekel: ›Kupil sem kos zemlje in nujno ga moram iti pogledat. Prosim te, imej me za opravičenega.‹
19 "Another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.'
In drugi je rekel: ›Kupil sem pet jarmov volov in grem, da jih preizkusim. Prosim te, imej me za opravičenega.‹
20 "Another said, 'I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.'
In drugi je rekel: ›Poročil sem ženo in zato ne morem priti.‹
21 "That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, 'Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.'
Tako, da je ta služabnik prišel in te stvari sporočil svojemu gospodarju. Potem je hišni gospodar jezen rekel svojemu služabniku: ›Pojdi hitro ven na ulice in mestne ceste ter pripelji sèm revne in pohabljene in šepave in slepe.‹
22 "The servant said, 'Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.'
In služabnik je rekel: ›Gospod, narejeno je, kakor si zapovedal in še je prostor.‹
23 "The lord said to the servant, 'Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
In gospodar je rekel služabniku: ›Pojdi ven na glavne ceste ter ograje in jih prisili, da vstopijo, da se bo moja hiša lahko napolnila.‹
24 For I tell you that none of those individuals who were invited will taste of my supper.'"
Kajti povem vam: ›Da nihče izmed tistih ljudi, ki so bili povabljeni, ne bo okusil moje večerje.‹«
25 Now large crowds were going with him. He turned and said to them,
In z njim so šle velike množice, on pa se je obrnil in jim rekel:
26 "If anyone comes to me, and does not hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
»Če katerikoli človek pride k meni in ne sovraži svojega očeta in matere in žene in otrok in bratov in sester, da in tudi svojega lastnega življenja, ne more biti moj učenec.
27 Whoever does not bear his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
In kdorkoli ne nosi svojega križa in ne sledi meni, ne more biti moj učenec.
28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
Kajti kdo izmed vas, ki hoče zgraditi stolp, se prej ne usede in ne prešteje stroška, ali ima zadosti, da ga dokonča?
29 Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
Da ga ne bi morda potem, ko je položil temelj, pa ga ne bi bil zmožen dokončati, vsi tisti, ki so to gledali, začeli zasmehovati,
30 saying, 'This man began to build, and was not able to finish.'
rekoč: ›Ta človek je začel graditi, pa ni bil zmožen dokončati.‹
31 Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
Ali kateri kralj, ki pripravlja vojno proti drugemu kralju, prej ne séde in se posvetuje, če bo zmožen z deset tisoči srečati tistega, ki prihaja nadenj z dvajsetimi tisoči?
32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy, and asks for conditions of peace.
Sicer, dokler je drugi še daleč, on pošlje poslanstvo in prosi pogoje za mir.
33 So therefore whoever of you who does not renounce all that he has, he cannot be my disciple.
Torej podobno, kdorkoli izmed vas, ki ne zapusti vsega, kar ima, ne more biti moj učenec.
34 Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
Sol je dobra, toda če je sol izgubila svoj okus, s čim se bo začinila?
35 It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
Niti ni primerna za zemljo niti za gnojišče, temveč jo ljudje mečejo ven. Kdor ima ušesa, da slišijo, naj posluša.«
