Matthew 12
1 During that period of time, on a (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), Jesus [and we] disciples were walking through some grain fields. And because we were hungry, we began to pick some of the heads of grain and eat them. [The laws of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
Ob tistem času je šel Jezus na šabatni dan skozi žitna polja, njegovi učenci pa so bili lačni in začeli smukati žitno klasje ter jesti.
2 Some Pharisees saw us [do what they considered to be work]. So they said to Jesus, [accusing him], “Look! Your disciples are doing [work] that is not permitted [in our] laws [PRS] [for us] to do on our day of rest!”
Toda ko so to videli farizeji, so mu rekli: »Glej, tvoji učenci delajo to, česar ni zakonito početi na šabatni dan.«
3 [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] {[Someone wrote]} [in the Scriptures] [RHQ] what [our revered ancestor King] David did when he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, ([but you do not think about what it implies!/so why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
Toda rekel jim je: »Ali niste brali, kaj je storil David, ko je bil lačen in tisti, ki so bili z njim,
4 David entered the big tent [where they worshipped] God [and asked for some food. The high priest gave him] the bread that had been {they had} presented [to God]. According to the laws [of Moses], only priests were permitted to eat that bread, but David and the men who were with him ate it. And [God did not consider that what they did was wrong]
kako je vstopil v Božjo hišo in jedel hlebe navzočnosti, ki jih ni bilo dovoljeno jesti njemu niti ne tistim, ki so bili z njim, temveč samo duhovnikom?
5 Also, think about the laws that [Moses wrote] [RHQ]. He said that [even though] the priests, [by working] in the Temple on our Jewish day of rest, are not obeying the Jewish day of rest [laws], they are not guilty. You have surely read that, [but you do not understand what it means].
Ali niste brali v postavi, kako to, da ob šabatnih dneh duhovniki v templju skrunijo šabat in so brez krivde?
6 Note this: [God allows men to work in] the Temple [on our rest day because that work must be done. But in addition, I] tell you that [I have] more [authority than the authority of] the Temple. So, it is more important for you to obey my teachings than to obey your traditions about our rest day.
Toda povem vam: ›Da je na tem kraju nekdo večji kakor tempelj.‹
7 [You should think about] these words [of God in the Scriptures]: ‘I want you to [act] mercifully toward people, and not [just] offer sacrifices.’ If you understood what that means, you would not condemn [my disciples], who have done no wrong.
Toda če bi vedeli, kaj to pomeni: ›Usmiljenje hočem imeti in ne žrtve, ‹ ne bi obsojali nedolžnih.
8 [And I want you to know that] I, the one who came from heaven, have [the] authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do on] the days of rest.”
Kajti Sin človekov je Gospod celó šabatnemu dnevu.«
9 After Jesus left there [that day], he went into a building where we Jews worship God.
In ko je odšel od tam, je šel v njihovo sinagogo.
10 [He saw] a man with a shriveled hand there. [The Pharisees thought that Jesus would be disobeying the tradition about not working on the day of rest if he healed the man, so one of] them asked him, “Does [God] permit [us] to heal [people] on our day of rest?” [They asked that question] so that they might accuse him [if he healed someone] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day).
In glej, tam je bil človek, ki je imel svojo roko izsušeno. In da bi ga lahko obdolžili, so ga vprašali, rekoč: »Ali je zakonito zdraviti na šabatne dneve?«
11 He replied to them, “Would anyone among you who has [only] one sheep that falls into a hole (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) [just leave it there] [RHQ]? [Certainly not]! You would take hold of it and lift it out right away, [and that would be acceptable work on our day of rest, too]
In rekel jim je: »Kateri človek bi bil tukaj med vami, ki bi imel eno ovco in če bi ta na šabatni dan padla v jamo ali je ne bi prijel ter je dvignil ven?
12 [Because] sheep are valuable, [their owners may work on our day of rest in order to rescue them. So, because] people are more valuable than sheep, it is certainly right for us to do something good [by healing another person any day, including] our day of rest!”
Koliko bolj je potem človek boljši kakor ovca? Zaradi tega je na šabatne dneve zakonito delati dobro.«
13 Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your [withered] hand!” The man stretched it out, and it became normal like the other hand!
Tedaj reče človeku: »Iztegni svojo roko.« In ta jo je iztegnil in bila je v celoti ozdravljena, podobno kakor druga.
14 Then the Pharisees left [the meeting house. They were worried that the people would reject their traditions and would accept Jesus’ teaching instead. So] they met together to plan how they could kill him.
Potem so farizeji odšli ven in imeli zborovanje proti njemu, kako bi ga lahko pokončali.
15 Because Jesus knew [that the Pharisees were plotting to kill him], he [took us disciples and] went away from there. Crowds, [including many sick people], followed him, [wanting him to heal them], and he healed them all.
Toda ko je Jezus to izvedel, se je umaknil od tam in sledile so mu velike množice in vse je ozdravil
16 But he told them firmly that they should not tell [other people yet] who he was.
ter jim naročil, da naj ga ne razglašajo,
17 [By acting humbly like that] he fulfilled what was written by Isaiah the prophet {what Isaiah the prophet wrote} [long ago about the Messiah]. [Isaiah wrote] that God said:
da bi se lahko izpolnilo, kar je bilo rečeno po preroku Izaiju, rekoč:
18 Take note of my servant whom I have chosen, the one whom I love and with whom I am pleased. I will put my Spirit in him, and he will proclaim that [God] will judge the non-Jews justly.
›Glej moj služabnik, ki sem ga izbral, moj ljubljeni, v katerem je moja duša zelo zadovoljna. Svojega duha bom položil nadenj in oznanil bo sodbo poganom.
19 He will not quarrel [with people], neither will he shout. He will not [teach with] a loud voice in the [main] streets.
Ne bo se ne prepiral niti ne vpil niti na ulicah nihče ne bo slišal njegovega glasu.
20 Until he has justly judged [the people who trust in him and] has declared them not guilty, he will not destroy [anyone who is weak like] a smashed stalk [MET], nor will he silence [anyone who is as helpless as] a smoldering [linen] wick [MET, DOU].
Poškodovanega trsta ne bo zlomil in kadečega stenja ne bo pogasil, dokler ne privede sodbe do zmage.
21 As a result, the non-Jews will confidently expect [that he will do great things for them].
In v njegovo ime bodo zaupali pogani.‹
22 One day when Jesus was at home, [some men] brought to [Jesus] a man [who, because of being] controlled by a demon {a demon controlled him}, was blind and unable to speak. [Jesus] healed him [by expelling the demon]. As a result, the man [began to] talk and [was able to] see.
Tedaj je bil k njemu priveden nekdo obseden s hudičem, slep in nem in ga je ozdravil, do take mere, da je slepi in nemi tako govoril kakor videl.
23 All the crowd [who saw it] marveled. They began asking [each other], “Could this man be the [Messiah, the] descendant of [King] David, [whom we have been expecting]?”
In vsa množica je bila osupla ter rekla: »Ali ni ta Davidov sin?«
24 Because the Pharisees [and the men who taught the Jewish laws] heard [that the people thought that Jesus might be the Messiah because he had expelled the demon], they said, “[It is not God, but] Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons, who enables [this man] to expel demons [from people!]”
Toda ko so farizeji to slišali, so rekli: »Ta ne izganja hudičev, razen z Bélcebubom, princem hudičev.«
25 But Jesus knew what [the Pharisees] were thinking [and saying]. So, [in order to show them that what they said did not make sense], he said to them, “If [the people in] [MTY] one nation fight against each other, [they] will destroy their nation {their nation will be destroyed}. If [people who live in] the same city or house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one group or family].
Jezus pa je poznal njihove misli in jim rekel: »Vsako kraljestvo, razdeljeno zoper sebe, je privedeno v opustošenje in nobeno mesto ali hiša, razdeljena zoper sebe, ne bosta obstala.
26 [Similarly], if Satan were expelling his own [demons] [MTY], [it would be as though] he was fighting against himself. (His kingdom would not continue!/How could his kingdom continue?) [RHQ] His rule over them would [certainly] not last!
In če Satan izganja Satana, je razdeljen zoper sebe; kako bo potem obstalo njegovo kraljestvo?
27 Furthermore, if [it is true that] Satan enables me to expel demons, is it also true that your disciples [who] expel demons [do so] by [Satan’s] power [RHQ]? [No] So they will show you that you [are not thinking logically].
In če z Bélcebubom izganjam hudiče, s kom jih izganjajo vaši otroci? Zatorej bodo oni vaši sodniki.
28 But because it is God’s Spirit who [enables] me to expel demons, [that proves that the power of] God to rule [people’s lives] has come to you.
Toda če z Božjim Duhom izganjam hudiče, potem je k vam prišlo Božje kraljestvo.
29 [I will illustrate why I am able to expel demons]. (A person cannot go into the house of a strong man) [RHQ] [But if he ties up the strong man], then he will be able to steal [the things in that man’s] house.
Kako lahko sicer nekdo vstopi v hišo močnega in opleni njegove dobrine, razen če najprej ne zveže močnega? In tedaj bo oplenil njegovo hišo.
30 [No one can be neutral]. Those who do not acknowledge [that the Holy Spirit enables] me [to expel demons] are opposing me, and those who do not gather [people to become] my [disciples] are causing [those people] to [DOU] go away [from me].
Kdor ni z menoj, je proti meni; in kdor ne zbira z menoj, razsipa na široko.
31 You [are saying that it is not the Holy Spirit who is enabling me to expel demons]. So I will say this to you: [If] those who offend and slander other people in any way are [then sorry and ask God to forgive them, God] will forgive them. But people who discredit what the Holy Spirit does will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive [people] who discredit what the Holy Spirit does}.
Zatorej vam pravim: ›Vsake vrste greh in bogokletje bo ljudem odpuščeno, toda bogokletje zoper Svetega Duha ljudem ne bo odpuščeno.
32 [God is willing to] forgive people who criticize [me], the One who came from heaven. But I [warn you that] those who say evil things about what the Holy Spirit [does] will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive people who speak evil words about what the Holy Spirit [does]}. They will not be forgiven {[He] will not forgive them} now, and they will never be forgiven {[he] will never forgive them}.” (aiōn g165)
In kdorkoli govori besedo zoper Sina človekovega, mu bo to odpuščeno; toda kdorkoli govori zoper Svetega Duha, mu ne bo odpuščeno ne na tem svetu ne v svetu, ki pride.‹ (aiōn g165)
33 “Think about this: You can know whether [a person is good and what that person says is good, in the same way that you] can know whether a tree [MET] and the fruit it produces [MET] are good. [You can also know whether a person and what that person says is evil in the same way that you can know] whether a tree [MET] and its fruit [MET] are blighted. You can know whether a tree is good by [seeing] its fruit, and similarly [people can know the evil character of you Pharisees by listening to your accusations against me].
Ali drevo dobro obrodi in je njegov sad dober, ali pa drevo slabo obrodi in je njegov sad slab; kajti drevo se spozna po njegovem sadu.
34 [What] you [teach harms people spiritually like poisonous] snakes [harm them physically] [MET]! You are not able to speak good things because you are evil [RHQ]. Evil people [SYN] [like you] speak what comes from all that is in their (inner beings/hearts).
Oh gadji rod, kako lahko vi, ki ste hudobni, govorite dobre besede? Kajti iz obilja srca usta govoré.
35 Good people [speak good things. That is like] taking good things out of buildings where they are stored. But evil people [speak evil things. That is like] taking evil things out of buildings where they are stored.
Dober človek iz dobrega zaklada srca prinaša dobre stvari, hudobnež pa iz zlega zaklada prinaša zle stvari.
36 I tell you that on the day when God judges [MTY], he will make people recall every useless word they have spoken, [and he will judge them accordingly].
Toda povem vam: ›Za vsako prazno besedo, ki jo bodo ljudje izgovorili, bodo na dan sodbe o tem dajali obračun.‹
37 Based on the words that you have spoken, [God] will [either] declare that you are righteous based on the words that you have spoken, or [else] he will condemn you.”
Kajti po svojih besedah boš opravičen in po svojih besedah boš obsojen.«
38 Then some of the Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws responded [to what Jesus was teaching] by saying to him, “Teacher, we want to see you [perform] a miracle [that would prove to us that God sent you].”
Tedaj so nekateri izmed pisarjev in farizejev odgovorili, rekoč: »Učitelj, od tebe želimo videti znamenje.«
39 Then Jesus said to them, “[You] people [have already seen me perform miracles], but you are evil, and you do not faithfully worship God [MET]! You want [me to perform] a miracle [that would prove to you that God sent me], but [God will enable] you to see only one miracle. It will be [like] what happened to Jonah the prophet [MET].
Toda odgovoril jim je in rekel: »Hudoben in zakonolomen rod išče znamenje, pa mu ne bo dano nobeno drugo znamenje, razen znamenja preroka Jona.
40 Jonah was in the stomach of a huge fish for three days and nights [before God caused him to live again]. Similarly, for three days and nights I, the one who came from heaven, will be in a place [where dead people are, and then God will cause me to live again].
Kajti tako, kakor je bil Jona tri dni in tri noči v kitovem trebuhu, tako bo Sin človekov tri dni in tri noči v osrčju zemlje.
41 When [God] judges [all people], the people who lived in Nineveh will stand [in front of him] with [you] people who [have seen me perform miracles]. The [people of Nineveh turned from their sinful ways as a result of hearing what] Jonah preached. [Jonah was important, but I], who am more important than Jonah, [have come and preached to you, but you have not turned from your sinful ways. So] when [God] judges [all people, he] will condemn you.
Ljudje iz Niniv bodo ob sodbi vstali s tem rodom in ga obsodili, ker so se ob Jonovem oznanjevanju pokesali; in glejte, tukaj je večji kakor Jona.
42 The queen from [Sheba, South of Israel, who lived long ago, came from a distant region in order to listen to King Solomon teach] many wise things. But now [I], [a man] who [is much] greater [and wiser] than Solomon, am here, [but you have not listened to what I have told you]. So at the time when [God] judges [all people], the queen from [Sheba will stand in front of him, along] with you people, and will condemn you.”
Kraljica z juga bo ob sodbi vstala s tem rodom in ga obsodila, kajti prišla je iz najbolj oddaljenih krajev zemlje, da sliši Salomonovo modrost; in glejte, tukaj je večji kakor Salomon.
43 “[Sometimes] when an evil spirit leaves a person, it wanders around in desolate areas, seeking [someone in whom it can] rest. If it does not find anyone,
Kadar je nečisti duh odšel iz človeka, hodi po suhih krajih, iščoč počitka, in ga ne najde.
44 it says [to itself], ‘I will return to the person [MET] in whom I used to live.’ So it goes back [and finds that the Spirit of God is not in control of that] person’s [life. The person’s life is like] a house that has been swept clean and everything put in order [MET], [but it is] empty.
Potem reče: ›Vrnil se bom v svojo hišo, od koder sem izšel.‹ In ko pride, jo najde prazno, pometeno in okrašeno.
45 Then [this evil spirit] goes and gets seven other spirits that are [even] more evil, and they [all] enter [that person] and [begin] living there. [So, although] that person’s condition [was bad] before, it becomes much worse. That is what [you] wicked people who [have heard me teach] will experience.”
Tedaj gre in s seboj vzame sedem drugih duhov, zlobnejših kakor on sam in vstopijo ter prebivajo tam in končno stanje tega človeka je slabše kakor prvo. Točno tako bo tudi temu zlobnemu rodu.«
46 While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his [younger] brothers [arrived]. They stood outside [the house], wanting to speak with him.
Medtem ko je še govoril množici, glej, so stali zunaj njegova mati in njegovi bratje, želeč govoriti z njim.
47 Someone said to him, “Your mother and your [younger] brothers are standing outside [the house], wanting to talk to you.”
Potem mu je nekdo rekel: »Glej, tvoja mati in tvoji bratje stojijo zunaj in želijo govoriti s teboj.«
48 Then Jesus said to the person who told him [that], “([I will tell you something about] my mother and brothers [MET].[/Do you know] who I [consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [MET, RHQ]
Toda odgovoril je in rekel tistemu, ki mu je povedal: »Kdo je moja mati? In kdo so moji bratje?«
49 He then pointed toward [us] disciples and said, “These are ones [whom I love as much as I love] my mother and my brothers [MET].
In svojo roko je iztegnil proti svojim učencem ter rekel: »Glejte, moja mati in moji bratje!
50 Those who do what [God] my Father [who is] in heaven wants, are [as dear to me] [MET] [as] my brother, my sister, or my mother.”
Kajti kdorkoli bo izvrševal voljo mojega Očeta, ki je v nebesih, ta je moj brat in sestra in mati.«
