Mark 7
1 [One day some] Pharisees and some men who teach the [Jewish] laws gathered around Jesus. They had come from Jerusalem [to investigate him].
Und es kamen zu ihm die Pharisäer und etliche von den Schriftgelehrten, die von Jerusalem kommen waren.
2 The Pharisees and all of the [other] Jews [strictly] observe the traditions that their ancestors [taught. For example, they refuse to] eat until they first wash their hands [with a special ritual], especially after they [return] from [buying things in] the marketplace. [They think that God will be angry with them if they do not do that, because some person or thing unacceptable to God might have touched] ([them/the things they bought]). There are many other such [traditions] that they accept and try to obey. Specifically, they wash [in a special way] their cups, pots, kettles, containers, and beds [in order that using these things will not make God reject them].
Und da sie sahen etliche seiner Jünger mit gemeinen, das ist, mit ungewaschenen Händen das Brot essen, versprachen sie es.
Denn die Pharisäer und alle Juden essen nicht, sie waschen denn die Hände manchmal; halten also die Aufsätze der Ältesten.
Und wenn sie vom Markt kommen, essen sie nicht, sie waschen sich denn. Und des Dings ist viel, das sie zu halten haben angenommen, von Trinkgefäßen und Krügen und ehernen Gefäßen und Tischen zu waschen.
5 That day, those Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws saw that some of his disciples were eating food with hands that they had not washed [using the special ritual]. So they questioned Jesus, saying, “[Your] disciples disobey the traditions of our ancestors! (You should not [let them] eat food if they have not washed their hands [using our special ritual]!/Why do you [let them] eat food if they have not washed their hands [using our special ritual]?) [RHQ]”
Da fragten ihn nun die Pharisäer und Schriftgelehrten: Warum wandeln deine Jünger nicht nach den Aufsätzen der Ältesten, sondern essen das Brot mit ungewaschenen Händen?
6 Jesus said to them, “Isaiah [rebuked your ancestors], and his words describe very well you people who only pretend to be good! He wrote these words [that God said]: These people speak [as if they] honor me, but they [SYN] really do not think about honoring me at all.
Er aber antwortete und sprach zu ihnen: Wohl fein hat von euch Heuchlern Jesaja geweissagt, wie geschrieben steht: Dies Volk ehret mich mit den Lippen, aber ihr Herz ist ferne von mir.
7 It is useless for them to worship me, because they teach only what people have commanded [as if I myself had commanded them].
Vergeblich aber ist's, daß sie mir dienen, dieweil sie lehren solche Lehre, die nichts ist denn Menschengebot.
8 You, [like your ancestors], refuse [to do] what God has commanded. Instead, you follow only the traditions that (others/your ancestors) have [taught].”
Ihr verlasset Gottes Gebot und haltet der Menschen Aufsätze, von Krügen und Trinkgefäßen zu waschen; und desgleichen tut ihr viel.
9 Jesus also said to them, “[You think] [IRO] that you are clever in refusing to do what God commanded just so that you can obey your own traditions!
Und er sprach zu ihnen: Wohl fein habt ihr Gottes Gebot aufgehoben, auf daß ihr eure Aufsätze haltet.
10 [For example, our ancestor] Moses [wrote God’s] command, ‘Honor your fathers and your mothers’. He also wrote, ‘[The authorities must] execute a person who speaks evil about his father or mother.’
Denn Mose hat gesagt: Du sollst deinen Vater und deine Mutter ehren; und: Wer Vater oder Mutter flucht, der soll des Todes sterben:
11 But you [teach people that it is all right that people no longer must help their parents. You teach people that it is all right if people] give their things to God [instead of giving them to their parents]. You allow them to say to their parents, ‘What I was going to give to you [to provide for you, I have now promised to] give to God. So I [cannot any longer help you]!’ As a result, you are [actually telling people] that they no longer have to help their parents!
Ihr aber lehret: Wenn einer spricht zum Vater oder Mutter: Korban, das ist, wenn ich's opfere, so ist dir's viel nützer, der tut wohl.
Und so laßt ihr hinfort ihn nichts tun seinem Vater oder seiner Mutter
13 And, by doing that, you disregard what God commanded! You teach your own traditions to others [and tell them strongly that they should obey them] And you do many other things like that.”
und hebet auf Gottes Wort durch eure Aufsätze, die ihr aufgesetzt habt; und desgleichen tut ihr viel.
14 Then Jesus again summoned the crowd [to come closer. Then] he said to them [figuratively], “All of you people listen to me! [Try to] understand [DOU] [what I am about to tell you].
Und er rief zu sich das ganze Volk und sprach zu ihnen: Höret mir alle zu und vernehmet's!
15 Nothing that people eat causes [God to] consider them to be unacceptable. On the contrary, it is that which comes from people’s (inner beings/hearts) that causes God to reject them.”
Es ist nichts außer dem Menschen, was ihn könnte gemein machen, so es in ihn gehet; sondern was von ihm ausgehet, das ist's, was den Menschen gemein macht.
Hat jemand Ohren zu hören, der höre!
17 After Jesus had left the crowd and then entered a house with the disciples, they asked him about the parable [that he had just spoken].
Und da er von dem Volk ins Haus kam, fragten ihn seine Jünger um dieses Gleichnis
18 He replied, “([I am disappointed that] you also do not understand [what it means]!/Why can you not understand [what it means]?) [RHQ] (You ought to understand that nothing that [enters us from] outside can cause [God to] consider us unacceptable to him./Can you not understand that nothing that [enters us from] outside of us can cause [God to] consider us unacceptable to him?) [RHQ]
Und er sprach zu ihnen: Seid ihr denn auch so unverständig? Vernehmet ihr noch nicht, daß alles, was außen ist und in den Menschen gehet, das kann ihn nicht gemein machen?
19 Instead of entering [and ruining] our minds/souls, it goes into our stomachs, and afterwards the refuse passes out [of our bodies].” By saying this, Jesus was declaring that people [can eat] any food without causing [God] to reject them.
Denn es gehet nicht in sein Herz, sondern in den Bauch und gehet aus durch den natürlichen Gang, der alle Speise ausfeget.
20 He also said, “It is the [thoughts and actions] that come from within people that cause [God] to consider them unacceptable to him.
Und er sprach: Was aus dem Menschen gehet, das macht den Menschen gemein.
21 Specifically, it is people’s innermost being [that causes them to] think things that are evil; they act immorally, they steal [things], they commit murder.
Denn von innen, aus dem Herzen der Menschen, gehen heraus böse Gedanken, Ehebruch, Hurerei, Mord,
22 They [commit] adultery, they are greedy, they [act] maliciously, they deceive [people]. They [act] indecently, they envy [people], they speak evil about others, they are proud, and they [act] foolishly.
Dieberei, Geiz, Schalkheit; List, Unzucht, Schalksauge, Gotteslästerung, Hoffart, Unvernunft.
23 People think [these thoughts] and then they do these evil actions, and that is what causes [God to] consider them unacceptable to him.”
Alle diese bösen Stücke gehen von innen heraus und machen den Menschen gemein.
24 After Jesus [and his disciples] left [Galilee district], they went to the region around Tyre. While he stayed at a certain house, he desired that no one know [it], but people soon found out [that he was there].
Und er stund auf und ging von dannen in die Grenze von Tyrus und Sidon und ging in ein Haus und wollte es niemand wissen lassen und konnte doch nicht verborgen sein.
25 A certain woman, whose daughter had an evil spirit [within her], heard about Jesus. At once she came to him and prostrated herself at his feet.
Denn ein Weib hatte von ihm gehört, deren Töchterlein einen unsauberen Geist hatte. Und sie kam und fiel nieder zu seinen Füßen
26 This woman [was not a Jew. Her ancestors came] from Greece [country], but she was born in [the region around] Phoenicia [town] in Syria district. She pleaded with Jesus that he expel the evil spirit from her daughter.
(und es war ein griechisch Weib aus Syrophönizien); und sie bat ihn, daß er den Teufel von ihrer Tochter austriebe.
27 But he [wanted to see how strongly she believed in him. So, suggesting that he should help the Jews first and not the non-Jews whom some Jews called dogs] [MET], [he] spoke to her saying, “First let the children eat all they want, because it is not good for someone to take the food [the mother has prepared] for the children and then throw it to the [little] dogs.”
Jesus aber sprach zu ihr: Laß zuvor die Kinder satt werden! Es ist nicht fein, daß man der Kinder Brot nehme und werfe es vor die Hunde.
28 But [to show that she believed that non-Jews could also receive help from God] [MET], she replied to him, “Sir, [what you say is] correct, but even the [little] dogs, which lie under the table, eat the crumbs that the children [drop].”
Sie antwortete aber und sprach zu ihm: Ja, HERR; aber doch essen die Hündlein unter dem Tisch von den Brosamen der Kinder.
29 [Jesus] said to her, “Because of what you have said, [you have shown me that you believe in what I can do for you]. So I will help you. Now you may go [home, because I have caused] the evil spirit to leave your daughter.”
Und er sprach zu ihr: Um des Worts willen so gehe hin; der Teufel ist von deiner Tochter ausgefahren.
30 The woman returned to her house and saw that her child was lying [quietly] on the bed and that the evil spirit had left.
Und sie ging hin in ihr Haus und fand, daß der Teufel war ausgefahren und die Tochter auf dem Bette liegend.
31 Jesus [and his disciples] left the region around Tyre [city] and went [north] through Sidon [city], then [toward the east] through the district of the Ten Towns, and then [south] to [the towns near] Lake Galilee.
Und da er wieder ausging von den Grenzen Tyrus und Sidon, kam er an das Galiläische Meer, mitten unter die Grenze der zehn Städte.
32 [There], people brought to him a man who was deaf and who could hardly talk. They begged [Jesus] to lay his hands on him [in order to heal him].
Und sie brachten zu ihm einen Tauben, der stumm war; und sie baten ihn, daß er die Hand auf ihn legte.
33 [So Jesus] took him away from the crowd [in order that the two of them could be] alone. Then he put [one of] his fingers into [each of] the man’s ears. After he spat [on his fingers], he touched the man’s tongue [with his fingers].
Und er nahm ihn von dem Volk besonders und legte ihm die Finger in die Ohren und spützete und rührete seine Zunge.
34 Then he looked up toward heaven, he sighed [because he was concerned for the man], and then [in his own language] he said to the man’s [ears], “Ephphatha”, which means, “Be opened {Open up}!”.
Und sah auf gen Himmel, seufzete und sprach zu ihm: Hephatha! das ist: Tu dich auf!
35 At once the man could hear plainly [MTY]. He also began to speak clearly because [what was causing him to be unable to speak] was healed {Jesus healed [what was causing him to be unable to speak]}.
Und alsbald taten sich seine Ohren auf, und das Band seiner Zunge ward los und redete recht.
36 Jesus told ([the people/his friends]) not to tell anyone [what he had done]. But, although he ordered them [and others] repeatedly [not to tell anyone about it], they kept talking about it very much.
Und er verbot ihnen, sie sollten es niemand sagen. Je mehr er aber verbot, je mehr sie es ausbreiteten.
37 [People who heard about it] were utterly amazed and were saying [enthusiastically], “Everything he has done is wonderful! [Besides doing other amazing things], he enables deaf people to hear! And he enables those who cannot speak to speak!”
Und verwunderten sich über die Maßen und sprachen: Er hat alles wohl gemacht: die Tauben macht er hörend und die Sprachlosen redend.
