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].
En in het schip gegaan zijnde, voer Hij over en kwam in Zijn stad. En ziet, zij brachten tot Hem een geraakte, op een bed liggende.
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.”
En Jezus, hun geloof ziende, zeide tot den geraakte: Zoon! wees welgemoed; uw zonden zijn u vergeven.
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!”
En ziet, sommigen der Schriftgeleerden zeiden in zichzelven: Deze lastert God.
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]
En Jezus, ziende hun gedachten, zeide: Waarom overdenkt gij kwaad in uw harten?
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]
Want wat is lichter te zeggen: De zonden zijn u vergeven? of te zeggen: Sta op en wandel?
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!”
Doch opdat gij moogt weten, dat de Zoon des mensen macht heeft op de aarde, de zonden te vergeven (toen zeide Hij tot den geraakte): Sta op, neem uw bed op, en ga heen naar uw huis.
7 And [immediately] the man got up, [picked up his sleeping pad], and went home!
En hij opgestaan zijnde, ging heen naar zijn huis.
8 When the crowds saw this, they were awestruck. They praised God for giving authority to a human being [to do] such [things].
De scharen nu dat ziende, hebben zich verwonderd, en God verheerlijkt, die zodanige macht den mensen gegeven had.
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.
En Jezus, van daar voortgaande, zag een mens in het tolhuis zitten, genaamd Mattheus; en zeide tot hem: Volg Mij. En hij opstaande, volgde Hem.
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.
En het geschiedde, als Hij in het huis van Mattheus aanzat, ziet, vele tollenaars en zondaars kwamen en zaten mede aan, met Jezus en Zijn discipelen.
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]
En de Farizeen, dat ziende, zeiden tot Zijn discipelen: Waarom eet uw Meester met de tollenaren en de zondaren?
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].
Maar Jezus, zulks horende, zeide tot hen: Die gezond zijn hebben den medicijnmeester niet van node, maar die ziek zijn.
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].”
Doch gaat heen en leert, wat het zij: Ik wil barmhartigheid, en niet offerande; want Ik ben niet gekomen om te roepen rechtvaardigen, maar zondaars tot bekering.
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]?”
Toen kwamen de discipelen van Johannes tot Hem, zeggende: Waarom vasten wij en de Farizeen veel, en Uw discipelen vasten niet?
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].”
En Jezus zeide tot hen: Kunnen ook de bruiloftskinderen treuren, zolang de Bruidegom bij hen is? Maar de dagen zullen komen, wanneer de Bruidegom van hen zal weggenomen zijn, en dan zullen zij vasten.
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.
Ook zet niemand een lap ongevold laken op een oud kleed; want deszelfs aangezette lap scheurt af van het kleed, en er wordt een ergere scheur.
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.”
Noch doet men nieuwen wijn in oude leder zakken; anders zo bersten de leder zakken, en de wijn wordt uitgestort, en de leder zakken verderven, maar men doet nieuwen wijn in nieuwe leder zakken, en beide te zamen worden behouden.
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]!”
Als Hij deze dingen tot hen sprak, ziet, een overste kwam en aanbad Hem, zeggende: Mijn dochter is nu terstond gestorven, doch kom en leg Uw hand op haar, en zij zal leven.
19 So Jesus got up, and he and [we] disciples went with the man.
En Jezus opgestaan zijnde, volgde hem, en Zijn discipelen.
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.
(En ziet, een vrouw die twaalf jaren het bloedvloeien gehad had, komende tot Hem van achteren, raakte den zoom Zijns kleeds aan;
Want zij zeide in zichzelven: Indien ik alleenlijk Zijn kleed aanraak, zo zal ik gezond worden.
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.
En Jezus, Zich omkerende, en haar ziende, zeide: Wees welgemoed, dochter! uw geloof heeft u behouden. En de vrouw werd gezond van dezelve ure af.)
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].
En als Jezus in het huis des oversten kwam, en zag de pijpers en de woelende schare,
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].
Zeide Hij tot hen: Vertrekt; want het dochtertje is niet dood, maar slaapt. En zij belachten Hem.
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.
Als nu de schare uitgedreven was, ging Hij in, en greep haar hand; en het dochtertje stond op.
26 And the [people of that] whole region heard [PRS] about it.
En dit gerucht ging uit door dat gehele land.
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!”
En als Jezus van daar voortging, zijn Hem twee blinden gevolgd, roepende en zeggende: Gij Zone Davids, ontferm U onzer!
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!”
En als Hij in huis gekomen was, kwamen de blinden tot Hem. En Jezus zeide tot hen: Gelooft gij, dat Ik dat doen kan? Zij zeiden tot Hem: Ja, Heere!
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]!”
Toen raakte Hij hun ogen aan, zeggende: U geschiede naar uw geloof.
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]!”
En hun ogen zijn geopend geworden. En Jezus heeft hun zeer gestrengelijk verboden, zeggende: Ziet, dat het niemand wete.
31 But they went out and reported it throughout that whole region.
Maar zij, uitgegaan zijnde, hebben Hem ruchtbaar gemaakt door dat gehele land.
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}.
Als dezen nu uitgingen, ziet, zo brachten zij tot Hem een mens, die stom en van den duivel bezeten was.
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!”
En als de duivel uitgeworpen was, sprak de stomme. En de scharen verwonderden zich, zeggende: Er is nooit desgelijks in Israel gezien!
34 But the Pharisees said, “It is [Satan], who rules the demons, who [enables this man to] expel demons [from people].”
Maar de Farizeen zeiden: Hij werpt de duivelen uit door den overste der duivelen.
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.
En Jezus omging al de steden en vlekken, lerende in hun synagogen, en predikende het Evangelie des Koninkrijks, en genezende alle ziekte en alle kwale onder het volk.
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].
En Hij, de scharen ziende, werd innerlijk met ontferming bewogen over hen, omdat zij vermoeid en verstrooid waren, gelijk schapen, die geen herder hebben.
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].
Toen zeide Hij tot Zijn discipelen: De oogst is wel groot; maar de arbeiders zijn weinige;
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.”
Bidt dan den Heere des oogstes, dat Hij arbeiders in Zijn oogst uitstote.
