Matthew 8
1 When Jesus went down from the hillside, large crowds followed him.
Da er aber vom Berge herabging, folgete ihm viel Volks nach.
2 [After he left the crowds], a man who had [the skin disease called] leprosy unexpectedly came and knelt before him. He said [to Jesus], “Lord/Sir, [please heal me, because I know] you are able to heal me if you are willing to.”
Und siehe, ein Aussätziger kam und betete ihn an und sprach: HERR, so du willst, kannst du mich wohl reinigen.
3 Then Jesus, [disregarding the religious law that forbade people to come close to lepers], stretched out his hand and touched the man. He said [to him], “I am willing to [heal you], and I heal you [now]!” Immediately the man was healed from his leprosy {he was no longer a leper}.
Und Jesus streckte seine Hand aus, rührete ihn an und sprach: Ich will's tun; sei gereiniget! Und alsbald ward er von seinem Aussatz rein.
4 Then Jesus said to him, “Go and show yourself to a [nearby] priest [so that he can examine you and verify that you no longer have leprosy]. [Then], after he tells [the local people], they will know [that you no longer have leprosy], [and you will be able to associate with them again]. Make sure that [now] you do not report [about my healing you] to anyone [other than the priest]. Then go [to the Temple in Jerusalem and give the priest] the offering that Moses commanded [that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer] as a sacrifice to God.”
Und Jesus sprach zu ihm: Siehe zu, sag's niemand, sondern gehe hin und zeige dich dem Priester und opfere die Gabe, die Mose befohlen hat, zu einem Zeugnis über sie.
5 When Jesus went to Capernaum [city], a [Roman] officer who commanded 100 soldiers came to him. He begged Jesus [to help him].
Da aber Jesus einging zu Kapernaum, trat ein Hauptmann zu ihm, der bat ihn
6 He said [to him], “Sir, my servant is lying [in bed] at home and is paralyzed, and he has severe pain.”
und sprach: HERR, mein Knecht liegt zu Hause und ist gichtbrüchig und hat große Qual.
7 Jesus said [to him], “I will go [to your house] and heal him.”
Jesus sprach zu ihm: Ich will kommen und ihn gesund machen.
8 But the officer said [to him], “Lord/Sir, [do not bother to go. I am a non-Jew], so I am not worthy for you, [a Jew], to come into my house [MTY] [and associate with me]. Instead, [just] command [that] my servant [be healed], and he will be healed.
Der Hauptmann antwortete und sprach: HERR, ich bin nicht wert, daß du unter mein Dach gehest, sondern sprich nur ein Wort, so wird mein Knecht gesund.
9 I [believe this] because, as for me, I am a man under the authority of others, and I also have soldiers under my authority. When I say to one of them ‘Go!’ he goes. When I say to another ‘Come!’ he comes. When I say to my slave, ‘Do this!’ he does it. [And I believe that you speak with a similar kind of authority].”
Denn ich bin ein Mensch, dazu der Obrigkeit untertan, und habe unter mir Kriegsknechte; noch wenn ich sage zu einem: Gehe hin! so gehet er, und zum andern: Komm her! so kommt er, und zu meinem Knecht: Tue das! so tut er's.
10 When Jesus heard this, he marveled. He said to the crowd that was walking with him, “Listen to this: I have never before found anyone who has as firm a faith [in me as this non-Jewish man has]. Not even in Israel, [where I would expect people to believe in me], have I found anyone who has the kind of faith in me that he has!
Da das Jesus hörete, verwunderte er sich und sprach zu denen, die ihm nachfolgeten: Wahrlich, ich sage euch, solchen Glauben habe ich in Israel nicht funden.
11 I tell you truly that many [other non-Jewish people] who [will believe in me like this Roman officer] will come from [distant countries, including] those [far] to the east and far to the west [SYN], and they will sit down to eat with [MTY] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in heaven, where God rules.
Aber ich sage euch: Viele werden kommen vom Morgen und vom Abend und mit Abraham und Isaak und Jakob im Himmelreich sitzen.
12 But [the Jews] [IDM] [who should have allowed] God to rule over them will be sent to [hell, where there is] total darkness. And as a result, they will weep [because of their suffering] and will grind their teeth [because they will have severe pain] [MTY].” (questioned)
Aber die Kinder des Reichs werden ausgestoßen in die äußerste Finsternis hinaus, da wird sein Heulen und Zähneklappen.
13 Then Jesus said to the officer, “Go [home]. What you believed [would happen], [that I would heal your servant from a distance], will happen.” [Then the officer went home and found out that] his servant became well at the exact time [that Jesus told him that he would heal him].
Und Jesus sprach zu dem Hauptmann: Gehe hin; dir geschehe, wie du geglaubt hast! Und sein Knecht ward gesund zu derselbigen Stunde.
14 When Jesus [and some of his disciples] went to the home of Peter, Jesus saw Peter’s mother-in-law. She was lying on a bed because she had a fever.
Und Jesus kam in des Petrus Haus und sah, daß seine Schwieger lag und hatte das Fieber.
15 He touched her hand, and as a result, [immediately] she no longer had a fever [PRS]. Then she got up and served them [some food].
Da griff er ihre Hand an, und das Fieber verließ sie. Und sie stund auf und dienete ihnen.
16 That evening [when] ([the Sabbath/the Jewish rest day]) [ended and restrictions about traveling ended], many people who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled} [and people who were sick] [MTY] [were] brought to Jesus. He caused the demons to leave just by speaking to them, and he healed all the people who were sick.
Am Abend aber brachten sie viel Besessene zu ihm; und er trieb die Geister aus mit Worten und machte allerlei Kranke gesund,
17 By doing this he fulfilled the words that had been said by the prophet Isaiah {that the prophet Isaiah had said} [about the Messiah]: “He healed people who had sicknesses and he cured them of their diseases.” [DOU]
auf daß erfüllet würde, was gesagt ist durch den Propheten Jesaja, der da spricht: Er hat unsere Schwachheit auf sich, genommen und unsere Seuche hat er getragen.
18 Jesus saw the crowd around him, but [he needed to rest]. So he told [his disciples to take him by boat] to the other side [of the lake].
Und da Jesus viel Volks um sich sah, hieß er hinüber jenseit des Meeres fahren.
19 [As they were walking toward the boat], a man who taught the [Jewish] laws came to him and said, “Teacher, I will go with you wherever you go.”
Und es trat zu ihm ein Schriftgelehrter, der sprach zu ihm: Meister, ich will dir folgen, wo du hingehest.
20 [In order that the man might know what he could expect if he went with him], 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 [MTY].”
Jesus sagte zu ihm: Die Füchse haben Gruben, und die Vögel unter dem Himmel haben Nester; aber des Menschen Sohn hat nicht, da er sein Haupt hinlege.
21 Another man who was one of Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Sir/Lord, permit me first to go [home. After] my father [dies I will] bury him, [and then I will come with you].”
Und ein anderer unter seinen Jüngern sprach zu ihm: HERR, erlaube mir, daß ich hingehe und zuvor meinen Vater begrabe.
22 But Jesus said to him, “Come with me [now]. [God considers that people who do not have eternal life are] dead [MET]. Let those people [do the work of] burying people who die.”
Aber Jesus sprach zu ihm: Folge du mir und laß die Toten ihre Toten begraben!
23 Then Jesus got into the boat. The disciples also got [in, and] they [started sailing close to the shoreline around Lake Galilee].
Und er trat in das Schiff, und seine Jünger folgeten ihm.
24 Suddenly strong winds blew on the lake, and very high waves were splashing into the boat and filling it. But Jesus was sleeping.
Und siehe, da erhub sich ein groß Ungestüm im Meer, also daß auch das Schifflein mit Wellen bedeckt ward; und er schlief.
25 They went and woke him up, and said [to him], “Sir/Lord, rescue [us!] We are about to drown!”
Und die Jünger traten zu ihm und weckten ihn auf und sprachen: HERR, hilf uns, wir verderben!
26 He said [to them], “(You should not be terrified!/Why are you terrified?) [RHQ] I [am disappointed that in spite of all you have seen me do], (you do not believe very much [that I can rescue you./] you not believe [that I can rescue you]?) [RHQ]” Then he got up and rebuked the wind and told the waves to calm down. And [the wind stopped blowing and the lake] became calm.
Da sagte er zu ihnen: Ihr Kleingläubigen, warum seid ihr so furchtsam? Und stund auf und bedräuete den Wind und das Meer; da ward es ganz stille.
27 [As a result], they were amazed, and they said [to one another], “This man is certainly an [extraordinary] person [RHQ]! [All things are under his control!] Even the winds and the waves obey him [PRS]!”
Die Menschen aber verwunderten sich und sprachen: Was ist das für ein Mann, daß ihm Wind und Meer gehorsam ist?
28 When they came to the [east] side [of the lake], they arrived in the region where the Gadarenes [lived]. [Jesus got out of the boat and began walking on the road. Then] two men who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled} came out of the burial caves [where they were living]. Because they were extremely violent [and attacked people], no one dared to travel on the road [near where they were living].
Und er kam jenseit des Meeres in die Gegend der Gergesener. Da liefen ihm entgegen zwei Besessene, die kamen aus den Totengräbern und waren sehr grimmig, also daß niemand dieselbige Straße wandeln konnte.
29 Suddenly they shouted [to Jesus], “You are the Son of God! [Because] you have nothing in common with us [IDM, RHQ], [leave us alone] Have you come here [RHQ] to torture us before the time [MTY] [God has appointed to punish us]?”
Und siehe, sie schrieen und sprachen: Ach Jesu, du Sohn Gottes, was haben wir mit dir zu tun? Bist du herkommen, uns zu quälen, ehe denn es Zeit ist?
30 There was a large herd of pigs not far away, digging for food with their noses.
Es war aber ferne von ihnen eine große Herde Säue an der Weide.
31 So the demons begged Jesus, saying, “You are going to cast us out of the men, so send us into the herd of pigs!”
Da baten ihn die Teufel und sprachen: Willst du uns austreiben, so erlaube uns, in die Herde Säue zu fahren.
32 Jesus said [to them], “[If that is what you want], go!” So the demons left [the men] and entered the pigs. Suddenly the whole herd [of pigs] rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
Und er sprach: Fahret hin! Da fuhren sie aus und fuhren in die Herde Säue. Und siehe, die ganze Herde Säue stürzete sich mit einem Sturm ins Meer und ersoffen im Wasser.
33 The men who were tending the pigs [became afraid and] ran into the town and reported everything [that had happened], including what had happened to the two men who had been controlled by demons {whom demons had controlled}.
Und die Hirten flohen und gingen hin in die Stadt und sagten das alles, und wie es mit den Besessenen ergangen war.
34 Then [it seemed as if] all [the people] [HYP] [who lived in] that town [MTY] went to meet Jesus. When they saw him [and the two men who had been controlled by the demons], they begged Jesus to leave their region [because they thought that he would destroy more things than just the pigs] (OR, [because they realized he must be very powerful]).
Und siehe, da ging die ganze Stadt heraus Jesu entgegen. Und da sie ihn sahen, baten sie ihn, daß er von ihrer Grenze weichen wollte.
