Matthew 16
1 [Some] Pharisees and Sadducees came to [Jesus] and asked him [to perform] a miracle that would prove [that] [had sent him].
Und die Pharisäer und Sadducäer kamen herzu, und, ihn versuchend, baten sie ihn, er möge ihnen ein Zeichen aus dem Himmel zeigen.
2 He answered them, “[In this country], in the evening you say, ‘[It will be] good weather [tomorrow], because the sky is red.’
Er aber antwortete und sprach zu ihnen: Wenn es Abend geworden ist, so saget ihr: Heiteres Wetter, denn der Himmel ist feuerrot;
3 [Early] in the morning [you say], ‘It will be stormy weather today, because the sky is red, and dark clouds have formed.’ You understand how to predict [the weather by looking at the sky], but you cannot [seem to look at what is happening] now, [and by that] understand [what God is doing].
und frühmorgens: Heute stürmisches Wetter, denn der Himmel ist feuerrot und trübe; das Angesicht des Himmels wisset ihr zwar zu beurteilen, aber die Zeichen der Zeiten könnt ihr nicht beurteilen.
4 [You] evil people have seen me [perform miracles] but you do not faithfully worship God [MET]. You want to see [me perform] a miracle [that would prove that God has sent me]. But [God] will [enable you to see] only one miracle. It will be [like] what happened [MET] to Jonah, [the prophet, who was inside a huge fish for three days and then came out of it to live again].” Then Jesus left them and sailed away, [along with us disciples].
Ein böses und ehebrecherisches Geschlecht verlangt nach einem Zeichen, und kein Zeichen wird ihm gegeben werden, als nur das Zeichen Jonas. Und er verließ sie und ging hinweg.
5 [We] forgot to take bread when [we] sailed to another edge of [the lake].
Und als seine Jünger an das jenseitige Ufer gekommen waren, hatten sie vergessen, Brote mitzunehmen.
6 [Then] Jesus said to us, “Beware [that you do not accept] the yeast [MET] that the Pharisees and Sadducees [distribute].”
Jesus aber sprach zu ihnen: Sehet zu und hütet euch vor dem Sauerteig der Pharisäer und Sadducäer.
7 Then, [not realizing that he was speaking figuratively], [we] said to one another, “[He must have said that] because we forgot to bring any bread!”
Sie aber überlegten bei sich selbst und sagten: Weil wir keine Brote mitgenommen haben.
8 Because Jesus knew what [we were saying], he said [to us], “(I am disappointed that you are discussing among yourselves, [thinking] that [it was because] you did not bring any bread [that I talked about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees]./Why are you discussing among yourselves thinking that it was because you did not bring any bread [that I talked about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees]?) [RHQ] You believe only a little [what I am able to do for you].
Als aber Jesus es erkannte, sprach er: Was überleget ihr bei euch selbst, Kleingläubige, weil ihr keine Brote mitgenommen habt?
9 (You should understand [that I can continue to do miracles to provide for what you need./] you not yet understand [that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food]?) [RHQ] Do you not remember that 5,000 [people ate when I multiplied the] five small loaves [and the two fish? And after everyone had enough to eat], you collected [twelve] baskets [of left-over pieces] [RHQ]!
Verstehet ihr noch nicht, erinnert ihr euch auch nicht an die fünf Brote der fünftausend, und wie viele Handkörbe ihr aufhobet?
10 [Do you not remember] [RHQ] [that] 4,000 [people ate when I multiplied the] seven small loaves [and a few fish]? And [after everyone had enough to eat], you collected [seven] large baskets [of left-over pieces]
Noch an die sieben Brote der viertausend, und wie viele Körbe ihr aufhobet? [Vergl. Kap. 14,20;15,37]
11 (You should have understood that I was not speaking about [real] bread [that contains yeast]./Why have you not understood that I was not speaking about [real] bread [that contains yeast?]) [RHQ] What I [was saying] was that you should [not accept what] the Pharisees and Sadducees [say, because it would affect you like] yeast [affects] [MET] [dough].”
Wie, verstehet ihr nicht, daß ich euch nicht von Broten sagte: Hütet euch vor dem Sauerteig der Pharisäer und Sadducäer?
12 Then we understood that he was not talking about the yeast that is [in] bread. Instead, [he was talking] about the [wrong] teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Da verstanden sie, daß er nicht gesagt hatte, sich zu hüten vor dem Sauerteig des Brotes, sondern vor der Lehre der Pharisäer und Sadducäer.
13 When Jesus came with [us] disciples to the region near Caesarea Philippi [town], he asked us, “Who do people say that I, the one who came from heaven, [really] am?”
Als aber Jesus in die Gegenden von Cäsarea Philippi gekommen war, fragte er seine Jünger und sprach: Wer sagen die Menschen, daß ich, der Sohn des Menschen, sei?
14 We answered, “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]. [Still] others [say that you are the prophet] Jeremiah or one of the [other] prophets [who lived long ago, who has come back to life again].”
Sie aber sagten: Etliche: Johannes der Täufer; andere aber: Elias; und andere wieder: Jeremias, oder einer der Propheten.
15 Jesus said to us, “[What about] you? Who do you say that I am?”
Er spricht zu ihnen: Ihr aber, wer saget ihr, daß ich sei?
16 Simon Peter said to him, “You are the Messiah! You are the Son of the all-powerful God.”
Simon Petrus aber antwortete und sprach: Du bist der Christus, der Sohn des lebendigen Gottes.
17 Then Jesus said to him, “Simon, son of Jonah, [God] is pleased with you. What you just said was not [SYN] revealed to you by any human. Instead, [it was] my Father [who lives] in heaven [who revealed this to you].
Und Jesus antwortete und sprach zu ihm: Glückselig bist du, Simon, Bar Jona; [O. Sohn Jonas] denn Fleisch und Blut haben es dir nicht geoffenbart, sondern mein Vater, der in den Himmeln ist.
18 I will also tell you this: You are Peter, [which means rock]. [You are like] a rock. What you [and your fellow apostles teach] (OR, [what] you [do]) [will be like a foundation on which I] will create congregations of people who [believe in] me. And the demons [PRS], [who live] where the dead people who lived evil lives are, will not be able to [come and] prevent [MET] [me from doing] that.” (Hadēs g86)
Aber auch ich sage dir, daß du bist Petrus; [O. ein Stein] und auf diesen Felsen will ich meine Versammlung [O. Gemeinde: s. das Vorwort] bauen, und des Hades Pforten werden sie nicht überwältigen. (Hadēs g86)
19 [Then, speaking to all of us, he said], “I will enable you [(pl)] to have authority [MTY] over the groups of people over whose lives [God] rules. Whatever you forbid regarding those people [MTY], it will have been forbidden by God. Whatever you permit [MET] regarding them, it will have been permitted by God.”
Und ich werde dir die Schlüssel des Reiches der Himmel geben; und was irgend du auf der Erde binden wirst, wird in den Himmeln gebunden sein, und was irgend du auf der Erde lösen wirst, wird in den Himmeln gelöst sein.
20 Then Jesus warned [us] disciples strongly not to tell anyone [at that time] that he is the Messiah.
Dann gebot er seinen Jüngern, daß sie niemandem sagten, daß er der Christus sei.
21 From that time Jesus began to teach [us] disciples that it was necessary for him to go to Jerusalem [city]. There the ruling elders, the chief priests, and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws would cause him to suffer and (be killed/die). Then on the third day [after that], he would become alive again.
Von der Zeit an begann Jesus seinen Jüngern zu zeigen, daß er nach Jerusalem hingehen müsse und von den Ältesten und Hohenpriestern und Schriftgelehrten vieles leiden, und getötet und am dritten Tage auferweckt werden müsse.
22 [Because Peter assumed that the Messiah would not suffer and die], he took Jesus aside and began to rebuke him [for talking about suffering and dying]. He said, “Lord, may [God] never permit that to happen to you! That must certainly not happen!”
Und Petrus nahm ihn zu sich und fing an, ihn zu strafen, indem er sagte: Gott behüte dich, Herr! dies wird dir nicht widerfahren.
23 Then Jesus turned [to look at] Peter, and he said to him, “Stop talking to me [like that] [MTY]! [Stop saying what] Satan [MET] [would say, and stop] trying to prevent [from happening what God has planned]! You are a hindrance to me, because you are not thinking like God thinks. Instead, [you are thinking] like people [think]!”
Er aber wandte sich um und sprach zu Petrus: Geh hinter mich, Satan! du bist mir ein Ärgernis, denn du sinnest nicht auf das, was Gottes, sondern auf das, was der Menschen ist.
24 Then Jesus said to [us] disciples, “If any one [of you] wants to be my disciple, you must not do [only] what you yourself want [to do]. [You] must be willing to [let people hurt you and disgrace you. That is like what they do to criminals whom they force to] carry a cross [MET] [to the place where the criminals will be executed. That is what anyone who wants to] be my disciple [must do].
Dann sprach Jesus zu seinen Jüngern: Wenn jemand mir nachkommen will, der verleugne sich selbst und nehme sein Kreuz auf und folge mir nach.
25 [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 [with God eternally].
Denn wer irgend sein Leben [Das griech. Wort bezeichnet beides: "Leben" und "Seele"; vergl. v 26] erretten will, wird es verlieren; wer aber irgend sein Leben verliert um meinetwillen, wird es finden.
26 People [might] get everything [they want] in this world, but ([if they do not become my disciples], they would really be gaining nothing [because] they would not get eternal life!/what would they gain [if they do not become my disciples and thus] do not get eternal life?) [RHQ] (There is absolutely nothing that people can give [to God] that would enable them to gain eternal life./What can people give [to God] that could enable them to gain eternal life?) [MTY, RHQ]
Denn was wird es einem Menschen nützen, wenn er die ganze Welt gewänne, aber seine Seele einbüßte? Oder was wird ein Mensch als Lösegeld geben für seine Seele?
27 [Listen carefully: I], the one who came from heaven, [will leave this earth, but] I will return, and the angels of heaven will accompany me. At that time I will have the glorious [radiance] that my Father has, and I will reward everyone according to what they did [when they were living on earth].
Denn der Sohn des Menschen wird [O. steht im Begriff zu; so auch Kap. 17,12. 22.] kommen in der Herrlichkeit seines Vaters mit seinen Engeln, und dann wird er einem jeden vergelten nach seinem Tun.
28 Listen carefully! Some of you who are here now will see [me], the one who came from heaven, when I return to rule. You will see this before you die!”
Wahrlich, ich sage euch: Es sind etliche von denen, die hier stehen, welche den Tod nicht schmecken werden, bis sie den Sohn des Menschen haben kommen sehen in seinem Reiche.
