Markus 3
1 Yesus kembali lagi ke rumah ibadat. Di situ ada seorang yang tangannya lumpuh sebelah.
[On another] ([Sabbath/Jewish day of rest]), Jesus entered (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place) again. There was a man there whose hand was shriveled.
2 Di situ ada orang-orang yang mau mencari kesalahan Yesus, supaya bisa mengadukan Dia. Jadi mereka terus memperhatikan Dia apakah Ia akan menyembuhkan orang pada hari Sabat.
[Some men of the Pharisee sect] watched him carefully in order to see whether he would heal the man (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day). They did this in order that [if he healed the man], they would accuse him of disobeying [their Jewish laws, because he worked] ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]).
3 Yesus berkata kepada orang yang tangannya lumpuh sebelah itu, "Mari berdiri di sini, di depan."
Jesus said to the man whose hand was shriveled, “Stand up here in front of everyone!” [So the man stood up].
4 Lalu Ia bertanya kepada orang-orang yang ada di situ, "Menurut agama, kita boleh berbuat apa pada hari Sabat? Berbuat baik atau berbuat jahat? Menyelamatkan orang atau membunuh?" Mereka diam saja.
Then Jesus said [to the Pharisees], “Do the laws [that God gave Moses] permit people to do good ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]), or do they permit people to do evil? Specifically, do his laws permit us to save a person’s life (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), or [do they permit us] to let him die [by refusing to help him]?” But they did not reply.
5 Dengan marah Yesus melihat sekeliling-Nya, tetapi Ia sedih juga, karena mereka terlalu keras kepala. Lalu Ia berkata kepada orang itu, "Ulurkan tanganmu." Orang itu mengulurkan tangannya, dan tangannya pun sembuh.
He looked around at them angrily. He was very distressed that they were stubbornly [not wanting to help the man]. So he said to the man, “Reach out your hand!” When the man reached out his withered hand, his hand became all right again!
6 Maka orang-orang Farisi meninggalkan rumah ibadat itu, lalu segera berunding dengan beberapa orang pendukung Herodes, untuk membunuh Yesus.
Then the Pharisees [decided to get rid of Jesus. So] after they left [the meeting house], they [immediately met with some of] the Jews who supported Herod [Antipas, who ruled Galilee district]. Together they planned how they could kill Jesus.
7 Yesus dan pengikut-pengikut-Nya pergi mengundurkan diri ke Danau Galilea. Maka banyak sekali orang dari Galilea yang pergi mengikuti Yesus. Banyak juga yang datang dari Yudea,
Jesus and his disciples left [that] town and went to an area further along [Galilee Lake in order to get away from the people]. But a great crowd of people followed him. They were people who came from Galilee [district],
8 dari Yerusalem, dari daerah Idumea, dan dari daerah di sebelah timur Yordan, dan dari sekitar kota-kota di Tirus dan Sidon. Mereka semuanya datang kepada Yesus, sebab mereka mendengar tentang hal-hal yang sudah dilakukan-Nya.
from Jerusalem [city], from [other towns of] Judea [district], from Idumea [district], from [the region on] the [east] side of the Jordan [River], and from [the region] around Tyre and Sidon [cities]. This great crowd of people came to him because they heard about what he was doing.
9 Orang-orang itu begitu banyak, sehingga Yesus menyuruh pengikut-pengikut-Ny menyediakan perahu untuk-Nya, sebab jangan-jangan Ia nanti terdesak oleh orang-orang itu.
Because he had healed many people, many [other] people who had various illnesses pushed forward in order that by touching him [they would come well]. So he told his disciples that they should get a small boat ready for him [to get in and teach from it]. He wanted to do this in order that the crowd would not crush him [when they pushed forward to touch him].
10 Ia menyembuhkan begitu banyak orang, sehingga semua orang sakit berdesak-desakan berusaha mendekati-Nya agar dapat menjamah Dia.
11 Dan orang-orang yang kemasukan roh jahat, setiap kali melihat Dia, terus saja sujud di hadapan-Nya dan berteriak, "Engkaulah Anak Allah!"
Whenever the evil spirits saw Jesus, [they caused the people whom they controlled] to fall down in front of Jesus [in recognition of Jesus’ power]. Then they exclaimed, “You are (the Son of God/the man who is also God)!”
12 Tetapi Yesus melarang keras roh-roh jahat itu memberitahukan siapa Dia.
He commanded the [evil spirits] strongly that they should not tell anyone who he was.
13 Kemudian Yesus naik ke sebuah bukit, dan memanggil orang-orang yang dikehendaki-Nya. Orang-orang itu datang,
Jesus went [with many other people] up into the hills. After he picked out [from among them] the men whom he wanted [to accompany him], they came [close] to him.
14 lalu Ia memilih dari antara mereka dua belas orang. Kata-Nya, "Aku memilih kalian, supaya kalian menyertai Aku, supaya Kuutus kalian untuk menyebarkan Kabar Baik dari Allah,
He appointed twelve men in order that they might be with him and in order that he might send them out to preach. He called them apostles.
15 dan kalian akan mendapat kuasa untuk mengusir roh-roh jahat."
He also gave them power in order that they might expel evil spirits [from people].
16 Inilah nama kedua belas orang itu: Simon (yang disebut-Nya juga Petrus),
These were the twelve men he appointed: Simon, to whom he gave the [new] name Peter; his [younger] brother Andrew;
17 Yakobus dan Yohanes saudaranya, yaitu anak-anak Zebedeus (mereka ini diberi-Nya nama Boanerges artinya "anak guntur"),
James, [the son] of Zebedee, and John, the [younger] brother of James, to [both of] whom he added the [new] name, ‘Men who are like Thunder’. [because of their fiery zeal];
18 Andreas, Filipus, Bartolomeus, Matius, Tomas, Yakobus anak Alfeus, Tadeus, Simon si Patriot,
Philip; Bartholomew; Levi, whose other name was Matthew; Thomas; [another] James, the son of Alphaeus; Thaddeus; [another] Simon, who was a [member of the party that wanted] to overthrow [the Roman government];
19 dan Yudas Iskariot yang mengkhianati Yesus.
and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]). He was the one who [later] (betrayed Jesus/helped Jesus’ enemies seize him).
20 Kemudian Yesus pulang ke rumah. Tetapi orang banyak datang lagi berkumpul, sampai Yesus dan pengikut-pengikut-Nya tidak sempat makan.
Jesus [along with his disciples] went to the house where he was staying [in Capernaum. Again a crowd gathered where he was]. There were many people crowding around him, so that he and his disciples had no time when they could eat or [when they could do anything else].
21 Orang-orang berkata, "Dia sudah gila!" Dan ketika keluarga-Nya mendengar hal itu, mereka pergi untuk mengambil Dia.
After his relatives heard about this, they went to take him home [with them] because (some people/they) were saying that he was insane.
22 Guru-guru agama yang datang dari Yerusalem berkata, "Ia kemasukan Beelzebul! Kepala roh-roh jahat itulah yang memberikan kuasa kepada-Nya untuk mengusir roh jahat."
[Around that time] some men who taught the [Jewish] laws came down from Jerusalem [city. They heard that Jesus was expelling demons]. So they were telling [people], “Beelzebub, who rules the evil spirits, controls him. He is the one who enables this man to expel evil spirits [from people]!”
23 Maka Yesus memanggil orang banyak itu, dan menceritakan kepada mereka beberapa perumpamaan. "Bagaimana mungkin roh jahat mengusir roh jahat," kata Yesus.
Jesus summoned those men. [Then he spoke to them] in parables [to enable them to realize that Satan would not oppose his own evil spirits. He also wanted them to realize that by expelling evil spirits, he was demonstrating that he was much more powerful than Satan]. So he said, “([It is ridiculous] to suggest that Satan would expel his own [evil spirits]!/Why would Satan expel his own [evil spirits]?) [RHQ]
24 "Kalau suatu negara terpecah dalam golongan-golongan yang saling bermusuhan, negara itu tidak akan bertahan.
If [people who live in the same] country are fighting one another, they will cease to be a single group under one ruler.
25 Dan kalau dalam satu keluarga tidak ada persatuan dan anggota-anggotanya saling bermusuhan, keluarga itu akan hancur.
And if [people who live in the same] house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one family].
26 Kalau di dalam kerajaan Iblis terjadi perpecahan dan permusuhan, kerajaan itu tidak tahan lama dan pasti akan lenyap.
Similarly, if Satan and his [evil spirits] were fighting one another, instead of remaining strong, he would become powerless.
27 Tidak seorang pun dapat masuk ke dalam rumah seorang yang kuat dan merampas hartanya kalau ia tidak terlebih dahulu mengikat orang kuat itu. Sesudah itu, baru ia dapat merampas hartanya.
Contrary to [what you say about me], someone can enter the house of a strong man [like Satan] and carry off his possessions only if he first ties up the strong man. Then [and only then] will he [be able to] steal the things in that man’s house.”
28 Ketahuilah! Apabila orang berbuat dosa dan mengucap penghinaan, ia dapat diampuni.
[Jesus also said], “Consider this carefully! People may sin in many ways and they may speak evilly about God, but [if] they [then are sorry and ask God to] forgive [them], [God] will forgive them for doing that.
30 (Yesus mengatakan begitu sebab ada orang yang berkata bahwa Yesus kemasukan roh jahat.)
[Jesus told them that] because [they refused to admit that the Holy Spirit was helping him to expel demons. Instead], they were saying, “An evil spirit is controlling him!”
31 Setelah itu ibu dan saudara-saudara Yesus datang. Mereka menunggu di luar dan menyuruh orang memanggil Yesus.
Jesus’ mother and [younger] siblings arrived. While they stood outside, they sent [someone inside] in order to call him [outside].
32 Ketika itu banyak orang sedang duduk di sekeliling Yesus. Mereka berkata kepada-Nya, "Pak, ibu dan saudara-saudara Bapak ada di luar. Mereka mencari Bapak."
A crowd was sitting around Jesus. One of them said to him, “Listen/Hey, your mother and your [younger] brothers and sisters are outside, and they are wanting (to see/to talk with) you!”
33 Yesus menjawab, "Siapakah ibu-Ku? Siapakah saudara-saudara-Ku?"
Jesus replied to them, “([I will tell you something about] my mother and my brothers.[/Do you know whom I consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [RHQ]
34 Kemudian Ia memandang kepada orang-orang yang duduk di sekeliling-Nya lalu berkata, "Inilah ibu dan saudara-saudara-Ku!
After he looked around at [the disciples] who were sitting around him [in a circle], he said, “Look here! I [love these men as much as] I [love] my mother and my brothers.
35 Orang yang melakukan kehendak Allah, dialah saudara laki-laki, saudara perempuan, dan ibu-Ku."
Those who habitually do what God wants are [as dear to me] [MET] as my brother, my sister, or my mother!”
