Matthew 21
1 When they had almost reached Jerusalem, having come as far as Bethphage, on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent on two disciples.
In ko so se bližali Jeruzalemu in so prišli do Bétfage pri Oljski gori, je Jezus torej poslal dva učenca,
2 “Go to the village facing you,” he said, “and you will immediately find a donkey tethered, with a foal by her side; untie her, and lead her here for me.
rekoč jima: »Pojdita v vas tam pred vama in nemudoma bosta našla privezano oslico in žrebe z njo. Odvežita ju in ju privedita k meni.
3 And, if anyone says anything to you, you are to say this – ‘The Master wants them’; and he will send them at once.”
In če vama bo katerikoli človek karkoli rekel, mu bosta rekla: ›Gospod ju potrebuje; ‹ in nemudoma ju bo poslal.«
4 This happened in fulfillment of these words in the prophet –
Vse to je bilo storjeno, da bi se lahko izpolnilo, kar je bilo rečeno po preroku, rekoč:
5 ‘Say to the people of Zion – “Your King is coming to you, gentle, and riding on a donkey, and on the foal of a beast of burden.”’
»Povejte sionski hčeri: ›Glej, tvoj Kralj prihaja k tebi, krotak in sedeč na oslici in žrebetu, osličjem žrebetu.‹«
6 So the disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.
In učenca sta odšla ter storila, kakor jima je Jezus zapovedal
7 They led the donkey and the foal back, and, when they had put their cloaks on them, he seated himself on them.
in pripeljala sta oslico ter žrebe in nanju položila svoja oblačila in posadili so ga nanju.
8 The immense crowd of people spread their cloaks in the road, while some cut branches off the trees, and spread them on the road.
Zelo velika množica je svoje obleke razgrnila na pot; drugi pa so odsekali veje iz dreves in jih nastlali po poti.
9 The crowds that led the way, as well as those that followed behind, kept shouting, “God save the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! God save him from on high!”
In množice, ki so šle spredaj in te, ki so sledile, so vzklikale, rekoč: »Hozana Davidovemu Sinu: ›Blagoslovljen je, kdor prihaja v Gospodovem imenu. Hozana na višavah.‹«
10 When he had entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred, and asked –
In ko je prišel v Jeruzalem, je bilo vse mesto razdraženo, govoreč: »Kdo je to?«
11 “Who is this?”, to which the crowd replied – “This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth in Galilee.”
Množica je rekla: »To je Jezus, prerok iz Nazareta v Galileji.«
12 Jesus went into the Temple Courts, and drove out all those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers, and the seats of the pigeon-dealers,
In Jezus je odšel v Božji tempelj in izgnal vse tiste, ki so v templju prodajali in kupovali in prevrnil mize menjalcem denarja in stole tem, ki so prodajali golobice
13 and said to them, “Scripture says ‘My house will be called a house of prayer’; but you are making it a den of robbers.”
ter jim rekel: »Pisano je: ›Moja hiša naj se imenuje hiša molitve, ‹ toda vi ste jo naredili za brlog razbojnikov.«
14 While he was still in the Temple Courts, some blind and some lame people came up to him, and he cured them.
V templju so prišli k njemu slepi in hromi in jih je ozdravil.
15 But, when the chief priests and the teachers of the Law saw the wonderful things that Jesus did, and the boys who were calling out in the Temple Courts “God save the Son of David!”, they were indignant,
Ko so visoki duhovniki in pisarji videli čudovita dela, ki jih je storil in otroke, ki so v templju vzklikali ter govorili: »Hozana Davidovemu Sinu, « so bili hudo nezadovoljni
16 and said to him, “Do you hear what these boys are saying?” “Yes,” answered Jesus, “but did you never read the words – ‘Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings you have called forth perfect praise’?”
in so mu rekli: »Slišiš, kaj tile govorijo?« Jezus pa jim reče: »Seveda. Mar niste nikoli brali: ›Iz ust otročičev in dojenčkov si izpopolnil hvalo?‹«
17 Then he left them, and went out of the city to Bethany, and spent the night there.
In zapustil jih je ter odšel iz mesta v Betanijo in tam prenočil.
18 The next morning, in returning to the city, Jesus became hungry;
Torej zjutraj, ko se je vrnil v mesto, je postal lačen.
19 and, noticing a solitary fig tree by the roadside, he went up to it, but found nothing on it but leaves. So he said to it, “Never again will fruit be gathered off you.” And suddenly the fruit tree withered up. (aiōn g165)
In ko je na poti zagledal figovo drevo, je prišel k njemu, pa na njem ni našel nič, razen listja samega in mu rekel: »Naj odslej na tebi nikoli več ne zraste noben sad.« In figovo drevo je takoj ovenelo. (aiōn g165)
20 When the disciples saw this, they exclaimed in astonishment, “How suddenly the fig tree withered up!”
Ko so učenci to videli, so se čudili, rekoč: »Kako hitro je figovo drevo ovenelo!«
21 “I tell you,” replied Jesus, “if you have faith, without ever a doubt, you will do what not only what has been done to the fig tree, but, even if you should say to this hill ‘Be lifted up and hurled into the sea!’ it would be done.
Jezus jim je odgovoril in rekel: »Resnično, povem vam: ›Če imate vero in ne dvomite, ne boste delali samo tega, kar je bilo storjeno figovemu drevesu, temveč tudi, če boste rekli tej gori: ›Bodi odstranjena in vržena v morje, ‹ se bo to zgodilo.‹
22 And whatever you ask for in your prayers will, if you have faith, be granted you.”
In vse stvari, katerekoli boste verujoč prosili v molitvi, boste prejeli.«
23 After Jesus had come into the Temple Courts, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching, and said, “What authority have you to do these things? Who gave you this authority?”
In ko je prišel v tempelj, so k njemu, medtem ko je učil, prišli visoki duhovniki in starešine izmed ljudi ter rekli: »S kakšno oblastjo delaš te stvari? In kdo ti je dal to oblast?«
24 “I, too,” said Jesus in reply, “will ask you one question; if you will give me an answer to it, then I, also, will tell you what authority I have to act as I do.
Jezus je odgovoril in jim rekel: »Tudi jaz vas bom vprašal eno besedo in če mi jo poveste, vam bom tudi jaz povedal, s kakšno oblastjo delam te stvari.
25 It is about John’s baptism. What was its origin? Divine or human?” But they began arguing among themselves, “If we say ‘divine,’ he will say to us ‘Why then didn’t you believe him?’
Janezov krst, od kod je bil? Iz nebes ali od ljudi?« In med seboj so razpravljali, rekoč: »Če bomo rekli: ›Iz nebes; ‹ nam bo rekel: ›Zakaj mu potem niste verjeli?‹
26 But if we say ‘human,’ we are afraid of the people, for everyone regards John as a prophet.”
Toda če bomo rekli: ›Od ljudi, ‹ se bojimo množice, kajti Janeza so vsi imeli za preroka.«
27 So the answer they gave Jesus was – “We do not know.” “Then I,” he said, “refuse to tell you what authority I have to do these things.
In odgovorili so Jezusu ter rekli: »Ne moremo povedati.« In rekel jim je: »Tudi jaz vam ne povem, s kakšno oblastjo delam te stvari.
28 What do you think of this? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the elder and said ‘Go and work in the vineyard today my son.’
Toda kaj vi mislite? Neki človek je imel dva sinova. In prišel je k prvemu ter rekel: ›Sin, pojdi danes delat v moj vinograd.‹
29 ‘Yes, sir,’ he answered; but he did not go.
Ta je odgovoril in rekel: ›Nočem, ‹ toda kasneje se je pokesal in odšel.
30 Then the father went to the second son, and said the same. ‘I will not,’ he answered; but afterward he was sorry and went.
In prišel je k drugemu ter rekel enako. Ta je odgovoril in rekel: › Grem, gospod, ‹ pa ni odšel.
31 Which of the two sons did as his father wished?” “The second,” they said. “I tell you,” added Jesus, “that tax collectors and prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God before you.
Kateri izmed njiju dveh je izvršil voljo svojega očeta?« Povedo mu: »Prvi.« Jezus jim reče: »Resnično, povem vam: ›Da pojdejo davkarji in vlačuge pred vami v Božje kraljestvo.
32 For when John came to you, walking in the path of righteousness, you did not believe him, but tax collectors and prostitutes did; and yet you, though you saw this, even then were not sorry, nor did you believe him.
Kajti Janez je prišel k vam po poti pravičnosti, pa mu niste verjeli, toda davkarji in vlačuge so mu verjeli. Vi pa, ko ste to videli, se potem niste pokesali, da bi mu lahko verjeli.‹
33 “Listen to another parable. A man, who was an employer, once planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, and then let it out to tenants and went abroad.
Poslušajte še eno prispodobo: ›Bil je nek hišni gospodar, ki je zasadil vinograd in ga ogradil naokoli in v njem izkopal vinsko stiskalnico in zgradil stolp in ga prepustil poljedelcem ter odšel v daljno deželo.
34 When the time for the grape harvest drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants, to receive his share of the produce.
In ko se je približal čas sadu, je k poljedelcem poslal svoje služabnike, da bi lahko prejeli njegove sadove.
35 But the tenants seized his servants, beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.
Poljedelci pa so njegove služabnike prijeli in enega pretepli in drugega ubili in še enega kamnali.
36 A second time the owner sent some servants, a larger number than before, and the tenants treated them in the same way.
Ponovno pošlje druge služabnike, več kakor prvič, pa so jim storili enako.
37 As a last resource he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
Toda zadnjega od vseh je poslal k njim svojega sina, rekoč: ›Mojega sina bodo spoštovali.‹
38 But the tenants, on seeing his son, said to each other ‘Here is the heir! Come, let us kill him, and get his inheritance.’
Toda ko so poljedelci zagledali sina, so si med seboj rekli: ›Ta je dedič. Pridite, ubijmo ga in se polastimo njegove dediščine.‹
39 So they seized him, and threw him outside the vineyard, and killed him.
In zgrabili so ga in ga vrgli iz vinograda in ga usmrtili.
40 Now, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?”
Kadar torej pride gospodar vinograda, kaj bo storil tem poljedelcem?‹«
41 “Miserable wretches!” they exclaimed, “he will put them to a miserable death, and he will let out the vineyard to other tenants, who will pay him his share of the produce at the proper times.”
Rekli so mu: »Te zlobneže bo bedno uničil, svoj vinograd pa bo prepustil drugim poljedelcem, ki mu bodo povrnili sadove ob svojih pravih obdobjih.«
42 Then Jesus added, “Have you never read in the scriptures? – ‘The stone which the builders despised – has now itself become the cornerstone. This cornerstone has come from the Lord, and is marvelous in our eyes.’
Jezus jim reče: »Mar niste nikoli brali v pismih: ›Kamen, ki so ga graditelji zavrgli, ta isti je postal glava vogalu. To je Gospodovo delo in to je čudovito v naših očeh?‹
43 That, I tell you, is why the kingdom of God will be taken from you, and given to a nation that does produce the fruit of the kingdom.
Zatorej vam pravim: ›Božje kraljestvo vam bo vzeto in dano narodu, ki prinaša njegove sadove.
44 Yes, and he who falls on this stone will be dashed to pieces, while anyone on whom it falls – it will scatter him as dust.”
In kdorkoli bo padel na ta kamen, bo razbit. Toda na kogarkoli bo ta padel, tega bo zmlel v prah.‹«
45 After listening to these parables, the chief priests and the Pharisees saw that it was about them that he was speaking;
In ko so visoki duhovniki in farizeji slišali njegove prispodobe, so zaznali, da je govoril o njih.
46 yet, although eager to arrest him, they were afraid of the crowds, who regarded him as a prophet.
Toda ko so si prizadevali položiti roke nanj, so se zbali množice, ker so ga imeli za preroka.
