Luke 12
1 While they were doing that, many thousands of people gathered [around Jesus]. There were so many that they were stepping on each other. Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Beware of [becoming] hypocrites [like] the Pharisees. Their [evil influence] [MET] [spreads to others like] yeast [spreads its influence in dough].
A v tom, když se na tisíce lidu sešlo, tak že jedni druhé velmi tlačili, počal mluviti k učedlníkům svým: Nejpředněji se varujte od kvasu farizeů, kterýž jest pokrytství.
2 People will not be able to continue concealing the things that [they or other] people try to conceal now. [God] will [some day] cause the things that are hidden now to be known {[everyone] to know the things that they hide now}.
Neboť nic není skrytého, což by nemělo býti zjeveno; aniž jest co tajného, ješto by nemělo býti zvědíno.
3 All the things that you say in the dark [secretly, some day] will be heard {people will hear them} in the daylight. The things you have whispered [SYN] privately among yourselves in your rooms will be proclaimed {[people] will proclaim them} publicly.”
Protož to, co jste pravili ve tmách, bude na světle slyšáno, a co jste v uši šeptali v pokojích, hlásánoť bude na střechách.
4 “My friends, listen [carefully]. Do not be afraid of people who [are able to] kill you, but after they kill you, there is nothing more that they can do [to hurt you].
Pravím pak vám přátelům svým: Nestrachujte se těch, kteříž tělo zabíjejí, a potom nemají, co by více učinili.
5 But I will warn you about the one that you should truly be afraid of. You should be afraid of [God], because he not only has [the power to] cause people to die, he has the power to throw them into hell afterward! Yes, he is truly the one that you should be afraid of! (Geenna g1067)
Ale ukážiť vám, koho se máte báti: Bojte se toho, kterýž, když zabije, má moc uvrci do pekelného ohně. Jistě pravím vám, toho se bojte. (Geenna g1067)
6 [Think about] the sparrows. [They are worth so little] that [you] can [RHQ] buy five of them for only two small coins. But not one of them is ever forgotten by God {God never forgets one of them}!
Zdaliž nebývá pět vrabečků prodáváno za dva penížky? A jeden z nich není v zapomenutí před Bohem.
7 You are worth more [to God] than many sparrows. So do not be afraid [of what people can do to you! God] even knows how many hairs there are on each of your heads, [so that if you(sg) lose one hair, he knows about it. So nothing bad can happen to you without his knowing it].
Nýbrž i vlasové hlavy vaší všickni v počtu jsou. Protož nebojtež se, mnohoť vy vrabečků převyšujete.
8 I want to tell you also that if people, [without being afraid, are willing to] tell others [that they are my disciples], [I], the one who came from heaven, will acknowledge before [God that they are my disciples]. [I will do that while] God’s angels listen.
Pravímť pak vám: Každý kdož by koli vyznal mne před lidmi, i Syn člověka vyzná jej před anděly Božími.
9 But if people [are] afraid to say in front of others that they are [my disciples], [I] will say, while God’s angels listen, that they are not [my disciples].
Kdož by mne pak zapřel před lidmi, zapřínť bude před anděly Božími.
10 [I will tell you] also that [God is willing to] forgive people who say bad things about me, the one who came from heaven, but [he] will not forgive anyone who says evil things about what the Holy Spirit [does].
A každý kdož dí slovo proti Synu člověka, bude mu odpuštěno, ale tomu, kdož by se Duchu svatému rouhal, nebudeť odpuštěno.
11 [So] when people ask you in Jewish worship houses and in the presence of rulers and other authorities [about your trusting in me], do not worry about how you will answer them [when they accuse you]. Do not worry about what you should say,
Když pak vás voditi budou do škol a k vládařům a k mocným, nepečujte, kterak aneb co byste odpovídali, aneb co byste mluvili.
12 because the Holy Spirit will tell you at that very time what you should say.”
Duch svatý zajisté naučí vás v tu hodinu, co byste měli mluviti.
13 Then one of the people in the crowd said to [Jesus], “Teacher, tell my [older] brother to divide my father’s property and give me [the part that belongs] to me!”
I řekl jemu jeden z zástupu: Mistře, rci bratru mému, ať rozdělí se mnou dědictví.
14 But Jesus replied to him, “Man, (no one appointed me in order that I would settle [matters when people are] disputing about property!/did anyone appoint me in order that I would settle [matters when people are] disputing about property?) [RHQ]”
A on řekl jemu: Člověče, kdo mne ustavil soudcím aneb děličem nad vámi?
15 Then he said to the whole crowd, “Guard yourselves very carefully, in order that you do not desire other people’s things in any way! No one can make his life secure by [obtaining] many possessions.”
I řekl jim: Viztež a vystříhejte se od lakomství; neboť ne v rozhojnění statku něčího život jeho záleží.
16 Then Jesus told the people this illustration: “There was a certain rich man whose crops grew very well.
Pověděl pak jim podobenství, řka: Člověka jednoho bohatého hojné úrody pole přineslo.
17 [So] he said [to himself], ‘I do not know what to do, because I do not have any place [big enough] to store all my crops!’
I přemyšloval sám v sobě, řka: Co učiním? Nebo nemám, kde bych shromáždil úrody své.
18 Then he thought to himself, ‘[I know] what I will do! I will tear down my grain bins and build larger ones! Then I will store all my wheat and other goods in [the big new bins].
I řekl: Toto učiním: Zbořím stodoly své, a větších nastavím, a tu shromáždím všecky své úrody i zboží svá.
19 [Then] I will say to myself [SYN], “Now I have plenty of goods stored up. [They will last] for many years. [So now] I will take life easy. I will eat and drink [all that I want to] and be happy [for a long time]!”’
A dím duši své: Duše, máš mnoho statku složeného za mnohá léta, odpočívej, jez, pí, měj dobrou vůli.
20 But God said to him, ‘You foolish [man]! Tonight you will die! (Then all [the goods] you have saved up [for yourself] will [belong to someone else, not to] you!/Do you think that you [will benefit from] all that you have stored up for yourself?) [RHQ]’”
I řekl jemu Bůh: Ó blázne, této noci požádají duše tvé od tebe, a to, cožs připravil, čí bude?
21 [Then Jesus ended this illustration by saying], “That is what will happen to those who store up goods just for themselves, but who do not value the things [that] God [considers] valuable.”
Takť jest, kdož sobě poklady shromažďuje, a není v Bohu bohatý.
22 Then [Jesus] said to his disciples, “So I want to tell you this: Do not worry about [things you need] in order to live. Do not worry about [whether you will have enough food] to eat or [enough clothes] to wear.
Řekl pak učedlníkům svým: Protož pravím vám: Nebuďte pečliví o život svůj, co byste jedli, ani o tělo, čím byste se odívali.
23 It is important to have sufficient food and clothing, but (the way you conduct your lives is more important./is not the way you conduct your lives more important?) [RHQ]
Život více jest nežli pokrm, i tělo nežli oděv.
24 Think about the birds: They do not plant [seeds], and they do not harvest [crops]. They do not have rooms or buildings in which to store crops. But God provides food for them. [And] you are certainly much more valuable than birds. [So God will certainly provide what you need]!
Patřte na havrany, žeť nesejí, ani nežnou, a nemají špižírny, ani stodoly a však Bůh živí je. I čím v větší vážnosti jste vy než ptactvo?
25 (There is not a one of you who can add a little bit to how long he lives by worrying about it!/Is there any of you who can add a little bit to how long he lives by worrying about it?) [RHQ]
A kdož pak z vás pečlivě mysle, můž přidati ku postavě své loket jeden?
26 Worrying is a small thing to do. So since you cannot add to your life, (you certainly should not worry about other things that [you need to have in order to live!]/why do you worry about other things that [you need to have in order to live]?) [RHQ]
Poněvadž tedy nemůžete s to býti, což nejmenšího jest, proč se o jiné věci staráte?
27 Think about the way that flowers grow [in the fields]. They do not work [to earn money], and they do not make their own clothes. But I tell you that [even though King] Solomon, [who lived long ago, wore very beautiful clothes], his clothes were not as beautiful as one of those [flowers].
Patřte na kvítí, kterak rostou, nedělají, ani předou, pravímť pak vám, že ani Šalomoun ve vší slávě své nebyl tak odín, jako jedno z těchto.
28 God makes the flowers beautiful, but they grow in the fields for only a short time. Then [they are cut at the same time that the grass] is cut, and thrown into an oven [to be burned to make heat for baking] bread. [So they really are not worth very much. But you are very precious to] God, [and he] will [care for you] much more [than he cares for the grass by filling it with beautiful flowers]. So he will certainly provide clothes for you, who [live much longer than the grass. Why] [RHQ] [do you] trust him so little?
A poněvadž trávu, kteráž dnes na poli jest, a zítra do peci uvržena bývá, Bůh tak odívá, čím více vás, ó malé víry?
29 Do not always be concerned about having enough to eat and drink, and do not be worrying about those things.
I vy nehledejtež toho, co byste jedli, aneb co byste pili, aniž o to roztržité mysli buďte.
30 The people who do not know God are always worried about such things. But your Father [in heaven] knows that you need those things, [so you should not worry about them].
Nebo těch všech věcí národové světa tohoto hledají, Otec pak váš ví, že těch věcí potřebujete.
31 Instead, be concerned about letting [God] completely direct [your life]. Then [he] will also give you enough of the things [you need].
Ale raději hledejte království Božího, a tyto všecky věci budou vám přidány.
32 [You who are my disciples are like a] small flock of sheep, [and I am like your shepherd]. So you should not be afraid. Your Father [in heaven] wants to let you rule with him [in heaven].
Neboj se, ó maličké stádce, neboť se zalíbilo Otci vašemu dáti vám království.
33 [So now] sell the things that you own. Give [the money that you get for those things] to poor people. [If you do that, it will be as though] you are providing for yourselves purses that will not wear out, and [God will give] you a treasure in heaven that will always be safe. There, no thief can come near [to steal it], and no termite can destroy it.
Prodávejte statky své, a dávejte almužnu. Dělejte sobě pytlíky, kteříž nevetšejí, poklad, kterýž nehyne v nebesích, kdež zloděj dojíti nemůž, aniž mol kazí.
34 Remember that [the things] that you [think are the most] valuable are [the things] that you will be constantly concerned about.”
Nebo kdež jest poklad váš, tuť bude i srdce vaše.
35 “Be always ready [for doing God’s work] [MET], like [people] who have put on their work clothes and are ready [during the day], with their lamps burning all night.
Buďtež bedra vaše přepásaná, a svíce hořící.
36 Be [ready for me to return] [MET], like servants who are waiting for their master to return after being at a wedding feast [for several days]. They are [waiting to] open the door for him and [start working for him again] as soon as he arrives and knocks at the door.
A vy podobni lidem očekávajícím Pána svého, až by se vrátil z svadby, aby hned, jakž by přišel a potloukl, otevřeli jemu.
37 If those servants are awake when he returns, [he will] be very pleased with them. I will tell you this: He will put on [the kind of clothes] that servants wear and tell them to sit down, and he will serve them a meal.
Blaze služebníkům těm, kteréž přijda Pán, nalezl by, a oni bdí. Amen pravím vám, že přepáše se, a vsadí je za stůl, a chodě, bude jim sloužiti.
38 [Even] if he comes between midnight and sunrise, if he finds that his servants are [awake and] ready [for him], he will be very pleased with them.
A přišel-liť by v druhé bdění, a pakliť by v třetím bdění přišel, a tak je nalezl, blahoslavení jsou ti služebníci,
39 But you must also remember this: If owners of a house knew what time a thief was coming, they [would stay awake and] would not allow their house to be broken into [and their goods to be stolen] {[the thief] to break into the house [and steal their goods]}.
Toto pak vězte, že byť věděl hospodář, v kterou by hodinu měl zloděj přijíti, bděl by zajisté, a nedal by podkopati domu svého.
40 Similarly, you must be ready [for me to return], because [I], the one who came from heaven, will come [again] at a time when you do not expect [me to come].”
Protož i vy buďte hotovi, nebo v kterou hodinu nenadějete se, Syn člověka přijde.
41 Peter said, “Lord, are you [(sg)] speaking this illustration [only] for us or for everyone [else also]?”
I řekl jemu Petr: Pane, nám-li pravíš toto podobenství, čili všechněm?
42 The Lord replied, “[I am saying it for you and for anyone else] [MET, RHQ] who is like a faithful and wise manager in his master’s house. His master appoints him to [supervise affairs in his house] and to give all the [other] servants their food at the proper time. [Then he leaves on a long trip].
I dí Pán: Kdo jest věrný šafář a opatrný, jehož by ustanovil pán nad čeledí svou, aby jim v čas dával vyměřený pokrm?
43 If the servant is doing that work when his master returns, [his master] will be very pleased with him.
Blahoslavený služebník ten, kteréhož, když by přišel pán jeho, nalezne, an tak činí.
44 I tell you this: His master will appoint him to supervise all of his affairs [permanently].
V pravdě pravím vám, že nade vším statkem svým ustanoví jej.
45 But that servant might think to himself, ‘My master [has been away] for a long time, [so he probably will] not return soon [and find out what I am doing].’ [Then he might] start to beat the [other] servants, both male and female ones. [He might also start] to eat [a lot of food] and get drunk.
Pakli by řekl služebník ten v srdci svém: Prodlévá přijíti pán můj, i počal by bíti služebníky a děvky, a jísti a píti i opíjeti se:
46 [If he does that, and if] his master returns on a day when the servant does not expect him, then his master will (cut him into two pieces/punish him severely) [HYP] and put him [in the place where he puts all] those who do not [serve him] faithfully.
Přijdeť pán služebníka toho v den, v kterýž se nenaděje, a v hodinu, kteréž neví. I oddělíť jej, a díl jeho položí s nevěrnými.
47 Every servant who knows what his master wants him to do but who does not get himself ready and does not do what his master desires will be beaten severely {[The master] will beat severely every servant who knows what his master wants him to do but who does not get himself ready and does not do what his master desires}.
Služebník pak ten, kterýž by znal vůli pána svého, a nebyl hotov, a nečinil podlé vůle jeho, bit bude velmi.
48 But every [servant] who did not know [what his master wanted] him to do, and who did things for which he deserved to be punished, will be beaten lightly {[the master] will beat lightly every [servant] who did not know [what his master wanted] him to do and did the things for which he deserved that [his master] would beat him}. [God will treat his people similarly, because he] expects a lot from those people whom [he] has allowed [to understand a lot]. People who entrust things [to others’ care] expect those people [to care for those things] very well. Similarly, [God] expects a lot from those people whom he has allowed [to understand a lot]. Furthermore, he expects the most from people to whom he has given the most [ability].”
Ale kterýž neznal, a činil hodné věci trestání, bit bude méně. Každému pak, komuž jest mnoho dáno, mnoho bude od něho požádáno; a komuť mnoho poručili, víceť požádají od něho.
49 “I came to earth to cause [there to be trials] [MET], [which will purify you as] fire [purifies metal] (OR, to cause judgment/divisions among you). I wish that the time when [you] will be purified {when [God] will purify you} (OR, when divisions will be caused {to cause divisions among people}) had already begun.
Oheň přišel jsem pustiti na zemi, a co chci, jestliže již hoří?
50 I must soon suffer [IDM] greatly. I am distressed, and I will continue to be distressed until my suffering is finished.
Ale křtem mám křtěn býti, a kterak jsem ssoužen, dokudž se nevykoná!
51 Do you think that as a result of my coming to earth people will live together peacefully? No! I must tell you, [that is not what will happen! Instead, people] will be divided.
Což se domníváte, že bych přišel pokoj uvésti na zemi? Nikoli, pravím vám, ale rozdělení.
52 Because some people in one house [will believe in me and some will not], they will be divided. [For example], three people in one house [who do not believe in me] will oppose two [who do believe], or two [who do not believe in me] will oppose three [who do believe].
Nebo již od této chvíle bude jich pět v jednom domě rozděleno, tři proti dvěma, a dva proti třem.
53 A man will oppose his son, or a son will oppose his father. A woman will oppose her daughter, or a woman will oppose her mother. A woman will oppose her daughter-in-law, or a woman will oppose her mother-in-law.”
Bude rozdělen otec proti synu, a syn proti otci, mátě proti dceři, a dcera proti mateři, svegruše proti nevěstě své, a nevěsta proti svegruši své.
54 He [also] said to the crowds, “[In this country], when you see a [dark] cloud forming in the west, you immediately say ‘It is going to rain!’ and that is what happens.
Pravil také i zástupům: Když vídáte oblak, an vzchází od západu, hned pravíte: Příval jde, a tak bývá.
55 [In this region], when the wind blows from the south, you say, ‘It is going to be a very hot day!’ and that is what happens.
A když od poledne vítr věje, říkáte: Bude horko, a býváť.
56 You hypocrites! By observing the clouds and the wind, you are able to discern what is happening regarding [the weather]. It is disgusting that you are not able to discern [what God is doing] at this present time [RHQ]!
Pokrytci, způsob země i nebe umíte souditi, a kterakž pak tohoto času nesoudíte?
57 (Each of you ought to determine now what is the right thing for you to do, [while you still have time to do that]!/Why cannot each of you determine what is the right [thing for you to do now while you still have time to do that]?) [RHQ]
Ano proč i sami od sebe nesoudíte, což spravedlivého?
58 [If you do not do that, God will punish you] [MET]. [It will be like what happens when] someone takes one of you to court, saying that you [(sg)] have done something very bad. You should try to settle things with him while you are still on the way to the court. If he forces you to go to the judge, the judge will decide that you are guilty and put you into the hands of the court officer. Then that officer will put you in prison.
Když pak jdeš s protivníkem svým k vrchnosti, na cestě přičiň se o to, abys byl zproštěn od něho, aby snad netáhl tebe k soudci, a soudce dal by tebe biřici, a biřic vsadil by tě do žaláře.
59 I tell you that if you go to prison, you will never get out, [because you will never be able to] pay every bit [of what the judge says you owe] [MET]. [Similarly, you ought to settle accounts with God before you die, too].”
Pravím tobě: Nevyjdeš odtud, dokudž bys i toho posledního haléře nenavrátil.
