Mark 2
1 [Jesus and his disciples] returned to Capernaum [town]. A few days later, because it was {people} heard that Jesus was in [his] house,
И уђе опет у Капернаум после неколико дана; и чу се да је у кући.
2 many people gathered there. As a result, [after the people filled the house], there was no longer space to stand [in the house or outside] around the doorway. Jesus preached [God’s] message to them.
И одмах скупише се многи тако да не могаху ни пред вратима да се збију; и казиваше им реч.
3 Some people came to the house bringing to Jesus a man who was paralyzed. He was carried by four men {Four men carried [him]} [on a sleeping pad].
И дођоше к Њему с одузетим кога су носили четворо.
4 They were not able to bring the man to Jesus because there was a crowd there. So they [went up the steps to the flat roof and] removed [some of] the tiles [above] where Jesus was. Then, after they made a [big] hole in the roof, they lowered [by ropes] the sleeping pad on which the paralyzed man lay. They lowered [it through the hole, down in front of Jesus].
И не могући приближити се к Њему од народа открише кућу где Он беше, и прокопавши спустише одар на коме одузети лежаше.
5 After Jesus perceived that the men believed [that he could heal this man], he said to the paralyzed man, “My friend, [I] forgive your sins!”
А Исус видевши веру њихову рече узетоме: Синко! Опраштају ти се греси твоји.
6 There were some men who taught [the Jewish] laws sitting there. They started thinking like this:
А онде сеђаху неки од књижевника и помишљаху у срцима својим:
7 “(Who does this man think he is, talking like that/This man shouldn’t talk like that!) [RHQ]? (He is insulting God!/Does he think he is God?) [RHQ] (No person can forgive sins!/Who can forgive sins?) [RHQ] Only God can forgive sins!”
Шта овај тако хули на Бога? Ко може опраштати грехе осим једног Бога?
8 Jesus sensed that they were deliberating like that within themselves. So he said to them, “(You should not question within yourselves [whether I have the right to forgive this man’s sins]!/Why do you question [whether I have the right to forgive this man’s sins]?) [RHQ]
И одмах разумевши Исус духом својим да они тако помишљају у себи, рече им: Што тако помишљате у срцима својим?
9 It is [not risky] [RHQ] for someone to tell the man who is paralyzed, ‘Your sins are forgiven {[I] forgive your sins},’ [because no one can prove that it has happened]. But no one would say to him, ‘Get up, pick up your stretcher, and then walk away’, [unless he really had the power to heal him, because people can easily see whether it happens or not].
Шта је лакше? Рећи узетоме: Опраштају ти се греси, или рећи: Устани и узми одар свој, и ходи?
10 So I [will do something] in order that you may know that [God] has authorized me, the one who came from heaven, to forgive sins on earth [as well as to heal people].” Then he said to the paralyzed man,
Но да знате да власт има Син човечји на земљи опраштати грехе, (рече узетоме: )
11 “To you I say, ‘Get up! Pick up your sleeping pad! And then go home!’”
Теби говорим: устани и узми одар свој, и иди дома.
12 The man stood up immediately! He picked up the sleeping pad, and then he went away, while all the people [there] were watching. They were all amazed, and they praised God and said, “We have never before seen anything like [what happened] just now!”
И уста одмах, и узевши одар изађе пред свима тако да се сви дивљаху и хваљаху Бога говорећи: Никада тога видели нисмо.
13 Jesus left [Capernaum town again and walked with his disciples] alongside [Galilee] lake. A large crowd came to him. Then he taught them.
И изађе опет к мору; и сав народ иђаше к Њему, и учаше их.
14 As he walked on further, he saw a man named Levi, whose other name was Matthew, and whose father’s name was Alpheus. He was sitting in his office where he collected taxes [for the Roman government]. Jesus said to him, “Come with me [and become my disciple]!” So he got up and went with Jesus.
И пролазећи виде Левију Алфејевог где седи на царини, и рече му: Хајде за мном. И уставши оде за Њим.
15 [Later], Jesus was eating a meal in Levi’s house. Many men who collected taxes and [other] people who were [considered to be] sinning regularly were eating with Jesus and his disciples. [This was not surprising], for there were many people like this who were going [everywhere] with Jesus.
И кад сеђаше Исус за трпезом у кући његовој, цариници и грешници многи сеђаху с Њим и с ученицима Његовим: јер их беше много који иђаху за Њим.
16 The [men who taught the Jewish] laws [who were there] and who were members of the Pharisee [sect] saw that Jesus was eating with men who collected taxes and [others who were considered] {[whom they considered]} [to be] sinners. So they said to his disciples, “(It is disgusting that he eats with [such disgusting] men as those who collect taxes, and with [other] sinners!/Why is it that he eats with [such disgusting] men as those who collect taxes, and with [other] sinners?)” [RHQ]
А књижевници и фарисеји видевши Га где једе с цариницима и с грешницима говораху ученицима Његовим: Зашто с цариницима и грешницима једе и пије?
17 After Jesus heard [what they were saying], he said to the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, “People who [consider that they] are well do not seek a doctor. On the contrary, it is those who are sick [who seek a doctor] [MET]!” [This he said to indicate that it was those who knew that they had sinned who were coming to him in order that he might help them spiritually]. And he said, “I did not come to invite people [who think that] [IRO] they are righteous [to come to me and turn from their sinful behavior]. On the contrary, I came [from heaven to invite] people who [know that they] are sinners, [in order that they might turn from their sins and come to me].”
И чувши Исус рече им: Не требају здрави лекара него болесни. Ја нисам дошао да дозовем праведнике но грешнике на покајање.
18 The disciples of John [the Baptizer] and some men who belonged to the Pharisee [sect] used to abstain from food [to show that they wanted to please God]. One day, some people came [to Jesus] and asked him [critically], “The disciples of John and the Pharisees (fast/abstain from food) [from time to time], but your disciples do not. [We think they should abstain from food also. What do you say about that] [RHQ]?”
И беху ученици Јованови и фарисејски који пошћаху; и дођоше и рекоше Му: Зашто ученици Јованови и фарисејски посте, а твоји ученици не посте?
19 [Jesus wanted them to understand that it was not appropriate for his disciples to show sorrow by abstaining from food while he was still with them]. So he said to them, “When a man is marrying a woman, his friends will certainly not abstain from food while he is still with them, will they [RHQ]? No. During the time that he is with them, they will not abstain from food [because they are happy together].
И рече им Исус: Еда ли могу сватови постити док је женик с њима? Докле год имају са собом женика не могу постити.
20 But some day, he will be taken away {his [enemies] will take him away} from them. Then, in those days, they will abstain from food, [because they will be sad].”
Него ће доћи дани кад ће се отети од њих женик, и тада ће постити, у оне дане.
21 [Jesus wanted to show that those who desire to live in accordance with his new message should not try to continue to obey the old religious traditions like fasting. So he also said to them], “People do not sew a patch of unshrunken cloth on an old garment [in order to mend a hole]. If they did that, [when they washed the garment, the patch would shrink] and the new [piece of cloth] would tear off more of the old cloth. As a result, the hole would become bigger!
И нико не пришива нову закрпу на стару хаљину; иначе ће одадрети нова закрпа од старог, и гора ће рупа бити.
22 [Similarly], people do not put newly [squeezed] grape juice into old skin bags [to store it]. If they did that, that juice will burst the skin bags [because they would not stretch when the wine ferments and expands]. As a result both the wine and the skin bags would be ruined! On the contrary, people must put new wine into new skin bags!” [MET]
И нико не сипа ново вино у мехове старе; иначе ново вино продре мехове, и вино се пролије, и мехови пропадну; него ново вино у нове мехове сипати треба.
23 On one (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) Jesus was walking through some grain fields with his disciples. As they were walking along [through the grain fields], the disciples were plucking some of the heads of grain. [They rubbed them in their hands to remove the chaff, and were eating the grain. The laws of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
И догоди Му се да су ишли у суботу кроз усеве, и ученици Његови тргаху путем класје.
24 [Some of] the Pharisees [saw them doing what they considered to be work. So they] said to him, “Look! (They should not be doing on our (Sabbath day/day of rest) [work] that our laws forbid!/Why are they doing on our (Sabbath day/day of rest) [work] that our laws forbid?) [RHQ]”
И фарисеји говораху Му: Гледај, зашто чине у суботу шта не ваља?
25 [Jesus wanted to show them that the record in the Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. So he said to them, “[It is written in the Scriptures] what [our revered ancestor, King] David, did when he needed food, and both he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, but ([you do not think about what it implies./why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
А Он рече им: Нисте ли никад читали шта учини Давид кад му би до невоље и огладне с онима што беху с њим?
26 During the time Abiathar was high priest, David entered the big tent [where people worshipped] God [and asked for some bread. The high priest gave him some] of the loaves of bread. That bread was the bread he had presented to God. It was permitted in one of Moses’ laws that only the priests could eat that bread! But David ate some of it. Then he also gave some of it to the men who were with him. [But God did not consider that was wrong!]”
Како уђе у Божју кућу пред Авијатаром поглаваром свештеничким и хлебове постављене поједе којих не беше слободно никоме јести осим свештеницима, и даде их онима који беху с њим?
27 Jesus said to them further, “[God] established (the day of rest/the Sabbath day) [to help] people! He did not create people to [obey rules about] (the Sabbath/the day of rest)!
И говораше им: Субота је начињена човека ради, а није човек суботе ради.
28 And [think about this]: I am the one who came from heaven. So I have the authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day)!”
Дакле је Господар Син човечји и од суботе.
