Luke 9
1 [One day] Jesus summoned his twelve [apostles], and gave them power to expel all [kinds of] demons and to heal [people with] diseases. He gave them authority to do that.
Er rief die Zwölf zusammen und verlieh ihnen Kraft und Vollmacht über alle Dämonen und die Gewalt, Krankheiten zu heilen.
2 [Before] he sent them out to heal people and to tell people [what it meant to let] God (rule/have complete control [over]) [their lives],
Dann sandte er sie aus, das Reich Gottes zu verkünden und Kranke zu heilen.
3 he said to them, “Do not take things for your journey. Do not take a walking stick or a [traveler’s] bag or food or money. Do not take (an extra shirt/extra clothes).
Er sprach zu ihnen: "Nehmt nichts mit auf den Weg, nicht Stab, noch Bettelsack, noch Brot, noch Geld; auch sollt ihr nicht zwei Röcke haben.
4 Whenever you enter some house [to lodge there], stay in that house until you leave that town.
Wo immer ihr ein Haus betretet, da bleibt und zieht von hier dann wieder weiter.
5 [In towns] where the people do not welcome you, [you should not continue to stay there. Just] leave those towns. And as you leave, shake off the dust from your feet. [Do that to] warn them [that God will punish them for rejecting your message].”
Wo man euch aber nicht aufnimmt, da verlaßt die Stadt und schüttelt selbst den Staub von euren Füßen zum Zeugnis wider sie."
6 Then they left and traveled through many villages. Everywhere [they went], they told people God’s good message and healed sick people.
So machten sie sich auf den Weg und zogen von Ort zu Ort; sie verkündigten das Evangelium und heilten überall.
7 Herod [Antipas], the ruler of [that] district, heard about the things that [Jesus and his disciples] were doing. [He had previously commanded his soldiers to execute John the Baptizer, so now] he was perplexed, because some people were saying that John had become alive again [and was doing those miracles].
Von all den Dingen drang die Kunde auch zum Vierfürsten Herodes, und er geriet in Unruhe; denn einige sagten: "Johannes ist von den Toten auferstanden";
8 Others were saying that [the prophet] Elijah had appeared [again as had been prophesied]. Others were saying that one of the [other] former prophets had become alive again [and was doing those miracles].
andere: "Elias ist erschienen"; wieder andere: "Einer von den alten Propheten ist auferstanden."
9 But Herod said, “[It cannot be John who is doing these things], [because] I [commanded my soldiers to] cut off his head. So who is [this man] that I am hearing these things about?” And he kept wanting to see [Jesus].
Herodes aber sagte: "Johannes habe ich doch enthaupten lassen; wer mag nur der sein, von dem ich solche Dinge höre?" Und er wünschte, ihn zu sehen.
10 When the apostles returned [from traveling to various towns], they told Jesus the things that they had done. Then he took them and they went by themselves [by boat] to a town called Bethsaida.
Nun kehrten die Apostel wiederum zurück, und sie erzählten ihm, was sie alles vollbracht hatten. Da zog er sich mit ihnen allein in eine Stadt zurück, die Bethsaida heißt.
11 But when the crowds [of people who had been with Jesus] found out about that, they followed him [on land. When they got to where he was], he welcomed them. He taught them about how God is going to some day (rule as king/have complete control [over people’s lives]). He also healed the sick people.
Die Scharen merkten es und kamen hinterher. Und er nahm sie freundlich auf; er redete zu ihnen vom Reiche Gottes und heilte alle, die Heilung nötig hatten.
12 Late in the afternoon Jesus’ twelve [apostles] came to him and said, “This is a place where nobody lives, so dismiss the people so that they can go to the surrounding villages and other places where they can get some food and find places to stay!”
Der Tag ging schon zur Neige. Die Zwölf traten zu ihm hin und sagten: "Entlaß die Scharen, sie mögen in die Dörfer und die Flecken hier im Umkreis gehen, Obdach und Nahrung suchen; denn hier sind wir in der Steppe."
13 But he said to them, “[No], you [yourselves] give them something to eat!” They replied, “We [(exc)] have only five small loaves and two [cooked] fish. Are you [(sg)] going to [give] us [the money] to go somewhere and buy food for all these people?”
Er aber sprach zu ihnen: "Gebt ihr ihnen doch zu essen!" Sie erwiderten jedoch: "Wir haben nur fünf Brote und zwei Fische; wir müßten denn hingehen und für diese ganze Menge Speise kaufen."
14 There were about 5,000 men [there]. He replied to the disciples, “[No], [just] tell the people to sit down. Tell them to sit in groups, with about 50 people in each group.”
Es waren nämlich an fünftausend Männer. Da sagte er zu seinen Jüngern: "Laßt sie in Gruppen zu je fünfzig lagern."
15 After they told the people that, they all sat down.
Sie taten es und ließen alle sich lagern.
16 Then he took the five small loaves and the two fish. He looked up towards heaven and thanked [God for them]. Then he broke them [into pieces] and gave them to the disciples so that they would distribute them to the crowd.
Dann nahm er die fünf Brote und die zwei Fische, sah zum Himmel auf, segnete sie, brach sie und gab sie seinen Jüngern, sie sollten sie dem Volke vorlegen.
17 All [the people in the crowd] ate until they all had enough to eat. Then [the disciples] collected twelve baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over!
Und alle aßen und wurden satt; ja, man hob noch zwölf Körbe von den Brocken auf, die übriggeblieben waren.
18 [One day] Jesus was praying in a place where only the disciples were with him. He asked them, “The crowds [of people], who do they say that I [really] am?”
Als er einmal einsam betete und nur die Jünger um ihn waren, da fragte er sie: "Für wen halten mich die Leute?"
19 They replied, “[Some people say that you are] John the Baptizer, [who has come back to life again]. Others say that you are [the prophet] Elijah, [who has returned from heaven as God promised]. Others say that you are one of the [other] prophets who lived long ago, who has come back to life again.”
Sie gaben ihm zur Antwort: "Für Johannes den Täufer, andere für Elias; noch andere sagen, einer der alten Propheten sei wieder auferstanden."
20 He asked them, “What about you [(pl)]? Who do you say that I am?” Peter replied, “You [(sg)] are the Messiah, who [has come from] God.”
Da fragte er sie weiter: "Ihr aber, für wen haltet ihr mich?" Und Petrus gab zur Antwort: "Für den Gesalbten Gottes."
21 Then Jesus warned them strongly not to tell that to anyone [yet].
Darauf verbot er ihnen streng, dies irgend jemand zu sagen.
22 Then he said, “[Even though I am] the one who came from heaven, it is necessary that I suffer very much. It is also necessary that I be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the men who teach the [Jewish] laws {that the [Jewish] elders and the chief priests and the men who teach the [Jewish] laws will reject me}. It is necessary that I be killed {that [people] will kill me}. Then on the third day [after that], I will become alive again.”
"Der Menschensohn", sprach er, "muß vieles leiden, er muß von den Ältesten, den Oberpriestern und den Schriftgelehrten verworfen und getötet werden und am dritten Tage auferstehen."
23 Then he said to all of them, “If any one [of you] wants to be my disciple, you must not do [only] what you yourself desire [to do]. [Specifically], you must be willing each day [MET] [to let others hurt you and disgrace you. That is like what is done to criminals who are forced] to carry [MET] crosses [to the place where they will be executed]. [That is what anyone who wants to] be my disciple [must do].
Zu allen aber sagte er: "Wer mir nachfolgen will, der verleugne sich selbst, jeden Tag nehme er sein Kreuz auf sich und folge mir.
24 You must do that, because those who try to save their lives [by denying that they belong to me when people want to kill them for believing in me] will not live [eternally], but those who are killed because of being my [disciples] will live [forever with me].
Denn wer sein Leben sich erhalten will, der wird es verlieren; und wer sein Leben mir zulieb verliert, der wird es erhalten.
25 People might get everything that [they want] in this world, but (they are really gaining nothing if they do not get eternal life by [becoming my disciples]!/are they really gaining anything if they do not get eternal life by [becoming my disciples]?) [RHQ]
Was nützte es dem Menschen, wenn er die ganze Welt gewänne, sich selbst jedoch verlöre oder zugrunde ginge?
26 Those who reject my message [and] refuse to say that [they belong] to me, [I], the one who came from heaven, will also refuse to say that [they belong to me] when I come back with the holy angels, and have the glorious brightness that my Father has.
Denn wer sich meiner und meiner Worte schämt, dessen wird auch der Menschensohn sich schämen, wenn er in seiner Herrlichkeit und der des Vaters und der heiligen Engel kommt.
27 But listen carefully! Some of you [(pl)] who are here now will see God ruling [MET] [in many powerful ways]. You will see it before you die!”
Ich sage euch in Wahrheit: Es stehen solche hier, die den Tod nicht kosten werden, bis sie das Reich Gottes gesehen haben."
28 About a week after [Jesus] said those things, he took Peter, James, and [James’ brother] John and led them up a mountain so that he could pray [there].
Acht Tage ungefähr nach diesen Reden nahm er Petrus, Jakobus und Johannes mit sich und stieg auf den Berg, um zu beten.
29 As he was praying, his face appeared very different to them. His clothes became as bright as lightning.
Während er betete, veränderte sich der Ausdruck seines Angesichtes, und sein Gewand ward glänzend weiß.
30 Suddenly, two men appeared who had the brightness [of heaven] surrounding them. They were [prophets who had lived long ago], Moses and Elijah. They started talking with Jesus about how he [would accomplish what God had planned when he died] [EUP] [very soon] in Jerusalem.
Und siehe, zwei Männer redeten mit ihm, Moses und Elias.
Sie erschienen in Herrlichkeit und sprachen über seinen Tod, wie er sich in Jerusalem erfüllen sollte.
32 Peter and the other [disciples] who were with him were sound asleep. When they woke up, they saw [Jesus’] brightness. They also saw the two men standing with him.
Petrus ward mit den Gefährten vom Schlafe übermannt. Beim Erwachen sahen sie ihn in seiner Herrlichkeit und die zwei Männer, die bei ihm waren.
33 As [Moses and Elijah] were starting to leave Jesus, Peter said to him, “Master, it is wonderful for us to be here! Allow us to make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah!” But he really did not realize what he was talking about.
Als diese sich entfernen wollten, sprach Petrus zu Jesus: "Wie schön ist es, Meister, daß wir hier sind! Wir möchten gern drei Hütten bauen: Dir eine, dem Moses eine und dem Elias eine." Er wußte jedoch nicht, was er sagte.
34 As he was saying that, a [bright] cloud appeared and covered them all. The disciples were afraid as the cloud surrounded them.
Noch sprach er so, als eine Wolke kam und sie in Dunkel hüllte. Sie fürchteten sich sehr, als jene in die Wolke gingen.
35 [God] [MTY/EUP] spoke to them from the cloud, saying, “This is my Son. He is the one whom [I] have chosen [to do a great work for me]. [So] you must listen to him!”
Und aus der Wolke erscholl eine Stimme: "Das ist mein erwählter Sohn, auf diesen sollt ihr hören."
36 After [God] [MTY/EUP] finished saying that, [the three disciples] saw that only Jesus was there. They did not tell anyone what they had seen until much later.
Während die Stimme erscholl, war Jesus ganz allein. Sie schwiegen und erzählten in jenen Tagen niemandem, was sie gesehen hatten.
37 The next day, after they had come down from the mountain, a large crowd [of people] met Jesus.
Des anderen Tags stiegen sie vom Berg hinab, und eine große Menge Volkes kam ihnen entgegen.
38 Then a man from the crowd exclaimed, “Teacher, I plead with you, [do something to help] my son! He is my only child!
Und siehe, aus der Menge rief ein Mann: "Meister, ich bitte dich, nimm dich meines Sohnes an, es ist mein einziger.
39 At various times an evil spirit suddenly seizes him and [causes] him to scream. The evil spirit shakes him violently and causes him to foam at the mouth. It does not leave until my child is completely exhausted.
Siehe, ein Geist packt ihn, und alsdann schreit er sogleich auf; er zerrt ihn hin und her, wobei er schäumt. Nur schwer läßt er von ihm ab; er reibt ihn noch ganz auf.
40 I pleaded with your disciples [who were here] for them to expel [the evil spirit], but they were not able to do it!”
Ich hatte deine Jünger gebeten, sie möchten ihn austreiben, doch sie haben es nicht vermocht."
41 Jesus replied [by saying to everyone who had gathered there], “[You who have seen how I help people] do not believe [that you can do anything]. What you [think] is perverted! How long must I be with you [before you are able to do what I do] [RHQ]? [How long must I] endure your [lack of faith]?” [Then he said to the boy’s father], “Bring your [(sg)] son here [to me]!”
Und Jesus sprach: "O du ungläubiges, verkehrtes Geschlecht! Wie lang noch muß ich bei euch sein und euch ertragen? Bring deinen Sohn hierher!"
42 While they were bringing the boy to Jesus, the demon attacked the boy, threw him to the ground, and shook him severely. But Jesus rebuked the evil spirit and healed the boy. Then he returned him to his father’s [care].
Noch während er herbeikam, riß und zerrte ihn der Dämon hin und her, und Jesus drohte dem unreinen Geist und heilte so den Knaben und gab ihn seinem Vater wieder.
43 All the people [there] were amazed at the great [power] of God. Luke 9:43b-45 While they were all amazed at all the miracles [Jesus] was doing, he said to his disciples,
Da staunte alles über die große Macht Gottes. Während alle über alle seine Taten voll Erstaunen waren, sprach er zu seinen Jüngern:
44 “Think carefully [MTY] about what I am about to tell you: [Even though I am] the one who came from heaven, [I will soon] be handed over to the authorities (OR, my enemies) {[someone] is about to enable [MTY] my enemies to seize me}.”
"Behaltet diese Worte tief im Gedächtnis: Der Menschensohn wird in die Hände der Menschen überliefert werden."
45 But [the disciples] did not understand what he was saying; [God] prevented them from understanding it, so that they would not know [yet] what he meant. And they were afraid to ask him about [what he had said].
Sie konnten aber dieses Wort nicht verstehen; es blieb ihnen verborgen, und sie sollten es nicht erfassen. Sie scheuten sich jedoch, ihn danach zu fragen.
46 The disciples began to argue among themselves about which one of them would be the greatest [when Jesus became king].
Einst kam es bei ihnen zur Erörterung, wer unter ihnen wohl der Größte sei.
47 But Jesus perceived what they were thinking. So he brought a young child to his side.
Da nahm Jesus, der die Gedanken ihres Herzens wohl erkannte, ein Kind und stellte dieses neben sich
48 He said to [the disciples], “Those who, because they [love] me, (OR, because they want to behave like me) welcome a little child ([like] this one/[as] I [would]) [MTY], [God considers that] [MET] they are welcoming me. And those who welcome me, [God considers] that [MET] they are welcoming him, the one who sent me. Remember that those among you who think of themselves as being very unimportant will be the ones [whom God considers] to be great.”
und sprach zu ihnen: "Wer dieses Kind in meinem Namen aufnimmt, nimmt mich auf. Und wer mich aufnimmt, nimmt den auf, der mich gesandt hat. Wer so der Kleinste von euch allen ist, nur der ist groß."
49 John replied to [Jesus], “Master, we [(exc)] saw a man who was expelling demons, [claiming] that [he had] authority from you [MTY] to do that. So we told him to stop doing it, because he is not one of us [disciples].”
Da sagte Johannes: "Meister, wir sahen einen, der in deinem Namen Dämonen austrieb; wir suchten ihn zu hindern, weil er dir nicht mit uns nachfolgt."
50 But Jesus said to him [and the other disciples], “Do not tell him not to [do that]! Remember that those who are not opposing you are trying to [achieve the same goals that] you are!”
Doch Jesus sprach zu ihm: "Hindert ihn nicht; denn wer nicht gegen euch ist, der ist für euch."
51 When it was almost time for [God] to take Jesus up to heaven, he firmly resolved to go to Jerusalem.
So kamen die Tage seines Hingangs heran. Da schlug er unverwandten Blicks die Richtung nach Jerusalem ein
52 He sent some messengers to go ahead of him, and they entered a village in Samaria [district] to prepare for him [SYN] [to go there].
und sandte Boten vor sich her. Diese machten sich auf den Weg und kamen in ein Dorf der Samariter, um eine Unterkunft für ihn zu suchen.
53 But [the Samaritans did not like the Jews because of their insisting that it was necessary to go to Jerusalem to worship God. So], because Jesus had firmly resolved to go to Jerusalem, they would not let him come [to their village].
Allein, man nahm ihn nicht auf, weil sein Reiseziel Jerusalem war.
54 When two of his disciples, James and John, heard about that, they said, “Lord, do you [(sg)] want us [(exc)] to pray that [God] will send fire down from heaven, [as the prophet Elijah did long ago], and destroy those people?”
Als dies Jakobus und Johannes, seine Jünger, hörten, sagten sie: "Herr, sollen wir nicht Feuer vom Himmel rufen, daß es sie verzehre?"
55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them [for saying that].
Da wandte er sich um und verwies es ihnen und sprach: "Ihr wisset nicht, wes Geistes Kinder ihr seid. Der Menschensohn ist nicht gekommen, Menschen zu verderben, sondern zu retten."
56 So they went to a different village.
Sie gingen dann in eine andere Ortschaft.
57 As Jesus and the disciples were walking along the road, one man said to him, “I will go with you [(sg)] wherever you go!”
Und unterwegs sprach zu ihm irgendeiner: "Herr, ich will dir folgen, wohin du gehst."
58 [In order that the man might know what he could expect if he went with Jesus], Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes [in the ground in which to live], and birds have nests, but [even though I am] the one who came from heaven, I do not have a home where I can sleep!”
Doch Jesus sprach zu ihm: "Die Füchse haben Höhlen, die Vögel des Himmels Nester, der Menschensohn jedoch hat keine Stätte, wohin er sein Haupt legen könnte."
59 Jesus told another man, “Come with me!” But the man said, “Lord/Sir, let me go [home] first. [After] my father [dies] I will bury him, [and then I will come with you].”
Zu einem anderen sprach er: "Folge mir!" Doch der erwiderte: "Herr, laß zuvor mich nochmals gehen, damit ich meinen Vater begrabe."
60 But Jesus said to him, “[God considers that those who do not have eternal life are] dead [MET]. Let those people [do the work of] burying people who die. As for you, go and tell people about how God wants (to rule/to have complete control [over]) [people’s lives]!”
Er aber sprach zu ihm: "Laß die Toten ihre Toten begraben. Du aber gehe hin, verkündige das Reich Gottes."
61 Someone else said, “Lord, I will come with you and be your disciple, but first let me go home to say goodbye to my relatives.”
Ein anderer sprach: "Ich will dir folgen, Herr; doch laß zuerst mich zu Hause Abschied nehmen."
62 Jesus said to him, “Anyone who is plowing his field should not look back [to see what he has done. He must look forward to what is ahead. Similarly], [anyone who continues to be concerned about his family and other things he has left behind] is not fit [to serve me and tell others about how] God wants to rule [MTY] [people’s lives].”
Doch Jesus sprach zu ihm: "Für das Reich Gottes ist niemand brauchbar, der die Hand an den Pflug anlegt und wieder rückwärts schaut."
