< Luke 10 >

1 After that, the Lord Jesus appointed 72 other [people]. He [prepared to] send them out, two-by-two, to every town and village where he [SYN] intended to go.
Danach sonderte der HERR andere siebzig aus und sandte sie zwei und zwei vor sich her in alle Städte und Orte, da er wollte hinkommen.
2 He said to them, “The [people who are ready to receive my message] are like a field [of] [MET] [grain] that is ready for [people] to harvest {to be harvested}. But there are not many people [to bring them to God]. So pray and ask the Lord [God] to send [more] workers [who will gather people together and teach them my message, just like a landowner sends workers] into his fields [to gather the] harvest.
Und sprach zu ihnen: Die Ernte ist groß, der Arbeiter aber ist wenig; bittet den HERRN der Ernte, daß er Arbeiter aussende in seine Ernte!
3 Start going; but [remember that] I am sending you [(pl)] out [to tell my message to people who will try to get rid of you. You will be] like lambs among wolves.
Gehet hin! Siehe, ich sende euch als die Lämmer mitten unter die Wölfe.
4 Do not take along [any money in] a purse. Do not take a traveler’s bag. Do not take [extra] sandals. Do not [spend a lot of time] greeting people along the way.
Traget keinen Beutel noch Tasche noch Schuhe und grüßet niemand auf der Straße.
5 Whenever you enter a house [to lodge there], first say to those people, ‘May [God give inner] peace to [you people] [MTY] [in] this house!’
Wo ihr in ein Haus kommt, da sprechet zuerst: Friede sei in diesem Hause!
6 If people who [live] there [are (desiring to have]/worthy of receiving) [God’s] peace, they will experience the [inner] peace that you are [offering them]. If people who [live] there [are not desiring to have God’s] peace, you [will experience God’s inner] peace, [but they will not].
Und so daselbst wird ein Kind des Friedens sein, so wird euer Friede auf ihm beruhen; wo aber nicht, so wird sich euer Friede wieder zu euch wenden.
7 [If they welcome you], stay in that same house [until you leave that village]. Do not move around from one house to another. Eat and drink whatever they provide for you. A worker deserves to get pay [MET] [from the people for whom he works, so you deserve to receive food and a place to stay from the people to whom you go].
In demselbigen Hause aber bleibet, esset und trinket, was sie haben; denn ein Arbeiter ist seines Lohnes wert. Ihr sollt nicht von, einem Hause zum andern gehen.
8 Whenever you enter a town and the people [there] welcome you, eat what is provided {what [they] provide} for you.
Und wo ihr in eine Stadt kommt, und sie euch aufnehmen, da esset, was euch wird vorgetragen,
9 Heal the people there who are sick. Tell them, ‘It is almost [time for] God to send his king to rule [MET] [your lives].’
und heilet die Kranken, die daselbst sind, und saget ihnen: Das Reich Gottes ist nahe zu euch kommen.
10 But if you enter a town whose [people] do not welcome you, go into its [main] streets and say,
Wo ihr aber in eine Stadt kommet, da sie euch nicht aufnehmen, da gehet heraus auf ihre Gassen und sprecht:
11 ‘[Because you have refused to hear our message, we(exc) will not only leave], we will also shake off the dust of your town that clings to our sandals, to warn you [that God will reject/punish you]. But [we want you to know that] it is almost [the time when] God will start to rule!’
Auch den Staub, der sich an uns gehänget hat von eurer Stadt, schlagen wir ab auf euch; doch sollt ihr wissen, daß euch das Reich Gottes nahe gewesen ist.
12 I will tell you this: On the [MTY] [final] day when [God judges everyone], he will punish the wicked people [MTY] who long ago lived in Sodom, [the city that he destroyed because its people were so wicked]. But he will punish [even] more severely the people [MTY] of any town [whose people refused to hear your message]!”
Ich sage euch: Es wird Sodom erträglicher ergehen an jenem Tage denn solcher Stadt.
13 “There will be terrible [punishment] for [you people who live in] [MTY] Chorazin and Bethsaida [cities]. I did great miracles in your cities [to show God’s power, but you did not turn from your sinful behavior]. If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in Tyre and Sidon [cities], the wicked people who lived there would have long ago [shown that they were sorry for their sins by] sitting on the ground wearing coarse cloth and putting ashes on their heads.
Wehe dir, Chorazin! Wehe dir, Bethsaida! Denn wären solche Taten zu Tyrus und Sidon geschehen, die bei euch geschehen sind, sie hätten vorzeiten im Sack und in der Asche gesessen und Buße getan.
14 [But they did not have the opportunity that you have, so when God punishes people, he will punish the wicked people who lived in] Tyre and Sidon, but he will punish you more severely [because you did not pay attention to my message].
Doch es wird Tyrus und Sidon erträglicher ergehen am Gerichte denn euch.
15 [I also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city]. (Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary], [after you die, God] will send you down to the place where [sinful people] will be punished [forever]!” (Hadēs g86)
Und du, Kapernaum, die du bis an den Himmel erhoben bist, du wirst in die Hölle hinuntergestoßen werden. (Hadēs g86)
16 [Jesus also said to the disciples, “God will consider that] those who listen to your [message] are listening to me, and that those who reject your [message] are rejecting me. And [he will consider that] those who reject me are rejecting [God], the one who sent me.”
Wer euch höret, der höret mich, und wer euch verachtet, der verachtet mich; wer aber mich verachtet, der verachtet den, der mich gesandt hat.
17 The 72 [people whom Jesus appointed went and did as he told them to]. When they returned, they were very joyful. They said, “Lord, [people did what we(exc) told them to do]! Demons also obeyed us when by your [(sg)] authority [MTY] [we commanded them to leave people]!”
Die Siebzig aber kamen wieder mit Freuden und sprachen: HERR, es sind uns auch die Teufel untertan in deinem Namen.
18 Jesus replied, “[When those demons were obeying you, because God had enabled you to defeat them, it was as though] [MET] I saw Satan fall from heaven [as suddenly and quickly] as lightning [strikes].
Er sprach aber zu ihnen: Ich sah wohl den Satanas vom Himmel fallen als einen Blitz.
19 Listen! I have given you authority so that if you oppose evil spirits [MET] [they will not hurt you]. I have given you authority to defeat our enemy, [Satan]. Nothing shall hurt you.
Sehet, ich habe euch Macht gegeben, zu treten auf Schlangen und Skorpione, und über alle Gewalt des Feindes; und nichts wird euch beschädigen.
20 But [although] you can rejoice that evil spirits obey you, you should rejoice [more] that your names have been written {that [God] has written your names} in heaven, [because you will be with God forever].”
Doch darin freuet euch nicht, daß euch die Geister untertan sind, freuet euch aber, daß eure Namen im Himmel geschrieben sind.
21 At that time the Holy Spirit caused [Jesus] to be very happy. He said, “Father, you [(sg)] rule over [everything in] heaven and [on] the earth! Some [people think that they are] wise [because] they are well-educated. But I thank you that you have prevented them from [knowing] these things. [Instead], you have revealed them to [people who accept your truth as readily] [MET] [as] little children [do]. Yes, Father, [you have done that] because it seemed good to you [to do] so.”
Zu der Stunde freuete sich Jesus im Geist und sprach: Ich preise dich, Vater und HERR Himmels und der Erde, daß du solches verborgen hast den Weisen und Klugen und hast es offenbart den Unmündigen: Ja, Vater, also war es wohlgefällig vor dir.
22 [Jesus also said to the 72 disciples], “[God], my Father, has revealed to me all [I need to know and the power I need for my work]. Only my Father knows who I [really] am. Furthermore, only I and those [people] to whom I wish to reveal him know what [God] my Father is [like].”
Es ist mir alles übergeben von meinem Vater. Und niemand weiß, wer der Sohn sei, denn nur der Vater, noch wer der Vater sei, denn nur der Sohn, und welchem es der Sohn will offenbaren.
23 Then when Jesus’ disciples were alone with him, he turned toward them and said, “[God] is pleased with you [SYN] who have seen [the things that I have done]!
Und er wandte sich zu seinen Jüngern und sprach insonderheit: Selig sind die Augen, die da sehen, was ihr sehet.
24 I want you to know that many prophets and kings [who lived long ago] desired to see the things that you are seeing [me do], but these things did not [happen] then. They longed to hear the things that you have been hearing [me say], but these things were not [revealed to them] then.”
Denn ich sage euch: Viel Propheten und Könige wollten sehen, was ihr sehet, und haben's nicht gesehen; und hören, was ihr höret, und haben's nicht gehöret.
25 [One day as Jesus was teaching people], a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that [God gave Moses]. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live [with God] forever?” (aiōnios g166)
Und siehe, da stund ein Schriftgelehrter auf, versuchte ihn und sprach: Meister, was muß ich tun, daß ich das ewige Leben ererbe? (aiōnios g166)
26 Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] have read [RHQ] what [Moses] has written in the laws that [God gave him]. What did Moses write about living forever?”
Er aber sprach zu ihm: Wie stehet im Gesetz geschrieben? Wie liesest du?
27 The man replied, “[He wrote that] we [(inc)] must love the Lord our God. [We must show that] by what we feel and by what we do and by what we think. [He] also [wrote that we must love] people that we come in contact with as much as [we love] ourselves.”
Er antwortete und sprach: Du sollst Gott, deinen HERRN, lieben von ganzem Herzen, von ganzer Seele, von allen Kräften und von ganzem Gemüt und deinen Nächsten als dich selbst.
28 Jesus replied, “You [(sg)] have answered [your question] correctly. If you do all that [continually], you will live [with God forever].”
Er aber sprach zu ihm: Du hast recht geantwortet; tue das, so wirst du leben.
29 But the man wanted to defend [the way] he [acted toward people that he came in contact with] (OR, to defend why he [had asked a question that Jesus answered so simply]). So he said to Jesus, “Which people that I come in contact with [should I love]?”
Er aber wollte sich selbst rechtfertigen und sprach zu Jesu: Wer ist denn mein Nächster?
30 Jesus replied [by telling him this illustration]: “A [Jewish] man was once going down along the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Bandits attacked him. They took away [most of] the man’s clothes [and everything else that he had], and they beat him until he was almost dead. Then they left him.
Da antwortete Jesus und sprach: Es war ein Mensch, der ging von Jerusalem hinab gen Jericho und fiel unter die Mörder; die zogen ihn aus und schlugen ihn und gingen davon und ließen ihn halbtot liegen.
31 It happened that a [Jewish] priest was going along that road. When he saw that man, [instead of helping him], he passed by on the other side [of the road].
Es begab sich aber ohngefähr, daß ein Priester dieselbige Straße hinabzog; und da er ihn sah, ging er vorüber.
32 Similarly, a man who worked in the temple [in Jerusalem] came to that place and saw the man. But he also passed by on the other side [of the road].
Desselbigengleichen auch ein Levit: da er kam zu der Stätte und sah ihn, ging er vorüber.
33 Then a man from Samaria [province] came along that road to where the man was lying. [People from Samaria despise Jews. But] when he saw that man, he pitied him.
Ein Samariter aber reisete und kam dahin; und da er ihn sah, jammerte ihn sein,
34 He went over to him and put some [olive] oil and wine on his wounds [to help heal them]. He wound strips of cloth [around the wounds]. He placed the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn and took care of him.
ging zu ihm, verband ihm seine Wunden und goß drein Öl und Wein und hub ihn auf sein Tier und führete ihn in die Herberge und pflegete sein.
35 The next morning he gave two silver coins to the innkeeper and said, ‘Take care of this man. If you [(sg)] spend more than this amount [to care for him], I will pay you back when I return.’”
Des andern Tages reisete er und zog heraus zwei Groschen und gab sie dem Wirt und sprach zu ihm; Pflege sein; und so du was mehr wirst dartun, will ich dir's bezahlen, wenn ich wiederkomme.
36 Then Jesus said, “Three people [saw] the man whom bandits attacked. Which one of them [acted in a loving way toward] that man?”
Welcher dünket dich, der unter diesen dreien der Nächste, sei gewesen dem, der unter die Mörder gefallen war?
37 The man who studied the Scriptures replied, “The one who acted mercifully toward him.” Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] go and act like that [toward] everyone whom [you can help]!”
Er sprach: Der die Barmherzigkeit an ihm tat. Da sprach Jesus zu ihm: So gehe hin und tue desgleichen!
38 As Jesus and his disciples continued to travel, they entered a village [near Jerusalem]. A woman whose name was Martha invited them to come to her house.
Es begab sich aber, da sie wandelten, ging er in einen Markt. Da war ein Weib mit Namen Martha, die nahm ihn auf in ihr Haus.
39 Her [younger] sister, whose name was Mary, sat near Jesus. She was listening to what he was teaching.
Und sie hatte eine Schwester, die hieß Maria; die setzte sich zu Jesu Füßen und hörete seiner Rede zu.
40 But Martha was very much concerned about preparing [a meal]. She went to Jesus and said, “Lord, (you do not seem to care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself!/do you not care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself?) [RHQ] Tell her that she should help me!”
Martha aber machte sich viel zu schaffen, ihm zu dienen. Und sie trat hinzu und sprach: HERR, fragst du nicht danach, daß mich meine Schwester lässet alleine dienen? Sage ihr doch, daß sie es auch angreife!
41 But the Lord replied, “Martha, Martha, you [(sg)] are very worried about many things.
Jesus aber antwortete und sprach zu ihr: Martha, Martha, du hast viel Sorge und Mühe!
42 But only one thing is truly necessary, and that is, [to listen to what I am teaching]. Mary has decided to [do that], and that is better [than worrying]. [The blessing that she is receiving from listening to me] will not be taken away from her {No one will take away from her [the blessing that she is receiving from listening to me]}.”
Eines aber ist not: Maria hat das gute Teil erwählet; das soll nicht von ihr genommen werden.
