Matthew 9
1 Jesus and his disciples got into the boat. They skirted around [the lake] and went to [Capernaum, the city where he was living].
Ježíš tedy vstoupil opět do člunu, vrátil se na druhý břeh a přišel do Kafarnaum.
2 [Some men] brought to him a man who was paralyzed and who was lying on a sleeping pad. When Jesus perceived that they believed [that he could heal the paralyzed man], he said to him, “Young man, be encouraged! I forgive your sins.”
Na nosítkách k němu přinesli ochrnutého člověka. Ježíš viděl jejich víru, a tak řekl nemocnému: „Už se netrap, chlapče! Tvé hříchy jsou ti odpuštěny!“
3 Some of the men who taught the [Jewish] laws said among themselves, “[He claims that he can forgive sins! That means that he claims to be equal with God] He is insulting God!”
Ale někteří z učitelů zákona se nad tím pozastavovali: „To jsou prázdná slova. Na to má právo jen Bůh.“
4 Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said, “(You should not think evil [thoughts], [accusing me because I claim that I am God]!/Why do you think evil [thoughts], [saying that it is wrong for me to claim that I am God]?) [RHQ]
Ježíš však prohlédl jejich myšlenky a obrátil se k nim: „Myslíte si, že zůstalo jen při slovech, když jsem mu odpustil hříchy? Dokážu vám, že moje slovo má moc.“Nato se obrátil k ochrnutému: „Vstaň a odnes svá nosítka domů!“
5 It would [not] be risky [for someone] to say [to this man], ‘[I] forgive your sins’, [because no one could see whether or not it really happened]. But [no one, without having the power to heal], would say [to him], ‘[Get] up and walk!’, [because people could easily see whether it happened or not!] [RHQ]
6 [So I am going to do something] in order that you may know that [God] has authorized [me], the one who came from heaven, to forgive the sins [of people while I am] on the earth, [as well as to heal people].” Then he said to the paralyzed man, “Get up, pick up your sleeping pad, and go home!”
7 And [immediately] the man got up, [picked up his sleeping pad], and went home!
8 When the crowds saw this, they were awestruck. They praised God for giving authority to a human being [to do] such [things].
Lidé nad tím žasli a děkovali Bohu, že dal člověku takovou moc.
9 As Jesus was going away from there, he saw me, a man named Matthew. I was sitting at a table where I collected taxes [for the Roman government]. He said to me, “Come with me [and become my disciple]!” So I got up and went with him.
Cestou odtud uviděl Ježíš muže jménem Matouš, jak vybírá poplatky. „Pojď se mnou a staň se mým učedníkem!“vyzval ho. Matouš hned vstal a následoval ho.
10 [Then I invited] Jesus and his disciples to my home for a meal. While [they] were sitting and eating in my home, many tax collectors and [other people who were] {whom [the Pharisees]} [considered to be habitual] sinners came unexpectedly to eat with us.
Později při hostině v Matoušově domě přišlo také mnoho celníků a lidí pochybné pověsti, aby poznali Ježíše a jeho učedníky.
11 When the Pharisees saw [that, they came] to us disciples and said, “([It is disgusting that] your teacher, [who claims to be righteous], eats [and associates] with tax collectors and [other] sinners!/Why is it that your teacher, [who claims to be righteous], eats [and associates] with tax collectors and [other] sinners?)” [RHQ]
Zbožné farizeje to popudilo: „Jak si váš mistr může sednout k jednomu stolu s takovými lidmi?“
12 Jesus heard what [they said], so he told them [this parable]: “[It is] people who are sick who need a [doctor] [MET], not people who are well.” [What he meant by that was that it was people who knew that they were sinners who were coming to him in order to be helped spiritually].
Když to Ježíš uslyšel, řekl jim: „Lékaře potřebují nemocní a ne zdraví.
13 He continued by saying, “You need to learn what these words that [God said] mean: ‘I want you to [act] mercifully to people and not [just to offer] sacrifices.’ Keep in mind that I came [from heaven, not] to invite [people who think] [IRO] [that they are] righteous [to turn away from their sinful lives and come to me, but to invite people who know they are] sinners [to turn from their sins and come to me].”
Zamyslete se nad tím, co znamená to staré slovo Písma: Nechci vaše oběti a dary, ale chci, abyste byli milosrdní. Nepřišel jsem schvalovat vaši bezúhonnost, ale zvát hříšníky k pokání.“
14 Later, the disciples of John [the Baptizer] came to Jesus and asked him, “We [(exc)] and the Pharisees [often] abstain from food [to show that we want to please God], but your disciples do not do that. Why [do they not]?”
Potom přišli za Ježíšem žáci Jana Křtitele s otázkou: „My a farizejové často držíme půst. Proč se tvoji učedníci také nepostí, jak je zvykem zbožných lidí?“
15 [Jesus wanted to show them and the Pharisees that it was not appropriate for his disciples to abstain from food and mourn while he was still with them]. So he [gave them this illustration]: “When a bridegroom is with [his friends at the time of the wedding], (his friends certainly do not mourn, do they?/do his friends mourn?) [RHQ] [No, they do not mourn, because they are not sad at that time. But when] the bridegroom is taken {[someone] takes the [/his enemies] take the bridegroom} from them, they will abstain from food, [because then they will be sad].”
Ježíš jim odpověděl: „Žádá někdo po svatebčanech, aby byli smutní a odmítali jídlo, dokud je ženich mezi nimi? Kdyby někdo ženicha odvlekl, bude po svatebním veselí. I moji učedníci se jednou postí, až přijde pravý čas. Nový život z Boha se nedá vtěsnat do starých zvyků a forem.
16 [Jesus wanted to show them that people who desire to live in accordance with his new message should not try to continue to obey the old religious traditions like] ([abstaining from food/fasting]) [MET]. [So he said to them], “People do not sew a patch of unshrunken cloth on an old garment [to mend a hole]. If they did that, [when they washed the garment], the patch would [shrink] and tear the garment, and the hole would become bigger.
To je podobné, jako kdyby někdo přišil na staré šaty záplatu z neseprané látky. Co se stane? Záplata vytrhne chatrné tkanivo a díra se ještě zvětší.
17 Neither does anyone pour freshly-[squeezed] grape juice into old skin bags [to store it]. If anyone did that, those skin bags would tear [because they would not stretch when the grape juice ferments and expands. They] would be ruined, and the wine would be spilled {spill} [on the ground]. Instead, [people] put new wine into new skin bags, [and the bags will stretch when the wine ferments]. As a result, both [the wine and the bags] are preserved.”
Mladé víno přece také nedáváte do měchů ze staré kůže, jinak by popraskaly a obojí by přišlo nazmar. Nové víno potřebuje nové měchy!“
18 While Jesus was saying that, a leader of the Jewish meeting place came and bowed down before him [to show respect]. Then he said, “My daughter just died! But if you come and lay your hand on her, she will live [again]!”
Zatímco Ježíš mluvil, přišel jeden z představených místní synagogy a poklonil se mu. „Moje dcera právě zemřela, “řekl, „ale ty jí můžeš zase vrátit život. Pojď, polož na ni ruku a vrátíš jí život.“
19 So Jesus got up, and he and [we] disciples went with the man.
Ježíš i jeho učedníci šli s ním.
20 Then a woman who [had been suffering constant vaginal] bleeding for twelve years came near Jesus. She was saying to herself, “[I want Jesus to heal me without anyone finding out that I have this problem of bleeding]. So if I [touch him] or even if I just touch his garment, I will be healed [without anyone finding out about it].” So she came behind him and touched the tassel of his garment.
Vtom však jedna žena, již dvanáct let postižená krvácením, se k Ježíšovi zezadu přiblížila a dotkla se okraje jeho roucha.
Myslela si: Když se alespoň dotknu jeho šatu, určitě se uzdravím.
22 Then Jesus turned around [to see who had touched him]. And when he saw the woman, he said to her, “Be encouraged, dear woman. Because you believed [PRS] [that I could heal you, I] have healed you.” The woman was healed at that very moment.
Ježíš se však otočil, podíval se na ni a řekl: „Raduj se, tvá víra tě zachránila.“A opravdu, v tu chvíli byla žena zbavena svého trápení.
23 Then Jesus [and some of us disciples] came to the Jewish leader’s house. Jesus heard the flute players [playing funeral music] and the crowd [that had gathered] wailing loudly [because the girl had died].
Pak Ježíš došel k domu onoho představeného synagogy, kde hrála pohřební hudba a naříkal shromážděný dav.
24 [Knowing that he would cause her to live again], he said [to them], “Go away [and stop the funeral music and wailing], because the girl is not dead! She is [just] sleeping!” [The people laughed at him, because they knew that she was dead].
Řekl jim: „Jděte všichni pryč! Smrt té dívky pomine jako spánek.“Ale nikdo ho nebral vážně a vysmívali se mu.
25 But Jesus told them to get out of the house. Then he went into [the room where the girl was lying]. He took hold of her hand and she [became alive again and] got up.
Když byl dům konečně vyklizen, Ježíš vešel, vzal děvčátko za ruku a ono vstalo.
26 And the [people of that] whole region heard [PRS] about it.
Zpráva o tom se rychle roznesla po celém kraji.
27 As Jesus went away from there, two blind men followed him and shouted, “Have mercy on us [and heal our eyes, you who are the Messiah], the Descendant of [King] David!”
Na cestě odtud se k Ježíšovi přidali dva slepci a volali: „Kriste, králi, slituj se nad námi!“
28 Jesus went into the house, where he [was staying], and then the blind men went in, too. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able [to heal your eyes]?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord!”
Šli za ním až do domu. Ježíš se jich zeptal: „Opravdu věříte, že vám mohu vrátit zrak?“
29 Then he touched their eyes and he said [to them], “Because you believe [that I can heal your eyes], I am healing them [right now]!”
„Určitě, Pane, “ujišťovali ho slepci. Dotkl se jejich očí a řekl: „Staň se vám, jak věříte.“
30 And they were able to see [IDM]! Then Jesus told them sternly, “Be sure [IDM] that you do not tell anybody [what I did for you]!”
V tu chvíli prohlédli. Pak jim důrazně přikázal: „Nechte si to pro sebe, ať se nikdo o tom nedoví!“
31 But they went out and reported it throughout that whole region.
Ale oni chodili po celém kraji a všude o něm mluvili.
32 When [Jesus and we disciples] left [the house], some people brought to Jesus a man who was unable to speak because he was controlled by a demon {a demon controlled him}.
Sotva odešli, přivedli k Ježíšovi němého člověka, posedlého zlým duchem.
33 After Jesus had expelled the demon, the man who had been unable to speak began to speak! The crowd [who saw this] marveled. They said, “Never before have [we seen] anything as [marvelous] as this happen in Israel!”
Ježíš démona vyhnal a němý začal mluvit. Zástupem proběhla vlna údivu: „Nikdy se v Izraeli nic podobného nedělo!“
34 But the Pharisees said, “It is [Satan], who rules the demons, who [enables this man to] expel demons [from people].”
Farizejové to však vysvětlovali: „Vyhání ďábly, protože je ve spojení s jejich vládcem.“
35 Then [we] went [with] Jesus through many of [HYP] the cities and towns [in Galilee district. He was teaching (in the synagogues/in the Jewish meeting places)], and preaching the good message about how God rules [over people’s lives]. He also was healing the [people who had] various diseases and illnesses.
Potom Ježíš procházel všemi městy i vesnicemi, učil v tamních synagogách a kázal radostnou zvěst o Božím království. A kamkoliv přišel, všude uzdravoval nemoci všeho druhu.
36 When he saw the crowd of people, he pitied them because they were harassed and dejected. [They were] like sheep that do not have a shepherd [SIM].
Když se tak díval na zástupy lidí stojící před ním, bylo mu jich líto, protože nevěděli, na koho se obrátit a kde hledat pomoc. Byli jako ovce bez pastýře.
37 Then he gave [this illustration] to us disciples: “[The people who are ready to receive my message are like a] field that is ready to be harvested {for people to harvest}. But there are only a few [of you who are teaching people my message].
Svým učedníkům řekl: „Ti všichni patří Bohu jako úroda svému hospodáři. Je však málo ženců.
38 So pray and ask the Lord [God] to send [more] workers [who will gather people together and teach them my message, just like a landowner sends workers] into his [field to gather] the [MET] harvest.”
Proto proste Pána, ať pošle pracovníky na své žně.“
