1A v tom, keď sa boly sišly desaťtisíce zástupu, takže šliapali jedni po druhých, začal hovoriť svojim učeníkom: Najprv sa vystríhajte kvasu farizeov, ktorý je pokrytstvo.
1Meanwhile, when a multitude of many thousands had gathered together, so much so that they trampled on each other, he began to tell his disciples first of all, “Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2Ale nieto ničoho ukrytého, čo by nemalo byť odkryté, ani tajného, čo by sa nemalo zvedieť.
2 But there is nothing covered up, that will not be revealed, nor hidden, that will not be known.
3A preto všetko, čo ste povedali vo tme, bude sa čuť na svetle; a čo ste v komorách šeptali do ucha, bude sa hlásať na domoch.
3 Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light. What you have spoken in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.
4Ale vám, svojim priateľom, hovorím: Nebojte sa tých, ktorí zabíjajú telo a ktorí potom nemajú viacej čo urobiť.
4 “I tell you, my friends, don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5Ale ukážem vám, koho sa máte báť: bojte sa toho, ktorý, keď zabije, má moc uvrhnúť do pekla. Áno, hovorím vám, toho sa bojte!
5 But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him, who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna. or, Hell Yes, I tell you, fear him.
6Či nepredávajú päť vrabčekov za dva groše? A ani jeden z nich nie je zabudnutý pred Bohom.
6 “Aren’t five sparrows sold for two assaria coins An assarion was a small copper coin worth about an hour’s wages for an agricultural laborer. ? Not one of them is forgotten by God.
7Ale aj vlasy vašej hlavy všetky sú spočítané. Nebojte sa teda! Vy ste drahší nad mnoho vrabcov.
7 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
8Ale hovorím vám: Každého, kto mňa vyzná pred ľuďmi, vyzná i Syn človeka pred anjelmi Božími.
8 “I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, him will the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God;
9Ale ten, kto mňa zaprel pred ľuďmi, bude zaprený pred anjelmi Božími.
9 but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of the angels of God.
10A každému, kto povie slovo proti Synovi človeka, bude odpustené; ale tomu, kto sa rúhal Svätému Duchu, nebude odpustené.
10 Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
11A keď vás budú vodiť do synagóg, pred úrady a pred vrchnosti, nestarajte sa, jako alebo čo máte povedať na svoju obranu alebo čo máte riecť;
11 When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, don’t be anxious how or what you will answer, or what you will say;
12lebo Svätý Duch vás naučí v tú istú hodinu, čo treba povedať.
12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that same hour what you must say.”
13A ktosi zo zástupu mu povedal: Učiteľu, povedz môjmu bratovi, aby si rozdelil so mnou dedičstvo!
13One of the multitude said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14Ale on mu povedal: Človeče, kto ma ustanovil za sudcu alebo za deliteľa nad vami?
14But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”
15A povedal im: Hľaďte a chráňte sa lakomstva! Lebo keď má niekto hojnosť, zato jeho život nie je z jeho majetku.
15He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”
16A povedal im aj podobenstvo a riekol: Ktoréhosi bohatého človeka zem hojne zarodila.
16He spoke a parable to them, saying, “The ground of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly.
17A rozmýšľal v sebe a povedal: Čo urobím? Lebo nemám, kde by som shromaždil svoju úrodu.
17 He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’
18A povedal: Toto spravím: zborím svoje stodoly a nastaviam väčších a shromaždím tam všetky svoje plodiny a svoj majetok
18 He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
19a poviem svojej duši: Dušo, máš mnoho majetku, složeného na mnoho rokov; odpočívaj, jedz, pi a veseľ sa.
19 I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, be merry.”’
20A Bôh mu povedal: Blázne, tejto noci požiadajú tvoju dušu od teba, a to, čo si nahotovil, čie bude?
20 “But God said to him, ‘You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared—whose will they be?’
21Tak je to s tým, kto si shromažďuje poklady a nie je bohatý v Bohu.
21 So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”
22A povedal svojim učeníkom: Preto vám hovorím: nestarajte sa o svoj život, čo budete jesť, ani o telo, čím sa odejete.
22He said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear.
23Lebo život je viac ako pokrm, a telo viac než odev.
23 Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
24Povážte vrany, že nesejú ani nežnú, ktoré nemajú komory ani stodoly, a Bôh ich živí. A o koľko drahší ste vy nad vtákov!
24 Consider the ravens: they don’t sow, they don’t reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds!
25A kto z vás môže starajúci sa pridať k veľkosti svojej postavy čo len jeden lakeť?
25 Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height?
26Ak tedy ani len najmenšie nemôžete, prečo sa o to ostatné staráte?
26 If then you aren’t able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest?
27Povážte ľalie, jako rastú; nepracujú ani nepradú, a hovorím vám, že ani Šalamún v celej svojej sláve nebol tak odiaty jako jedna z nich.
27 Consider the lilies, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28Ak tedy trávu na poli, ktorá je dnes a zajtra sa hodí do pece, Bôh tak odieva, o koľko skôr zaodeje vás, ó, ľudia malej viery.
28 But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith?
29A vy nehľadajte, čo budete jesť alebo čo budete piť, ani sa takými starosťami neznepokojujte,
29 Don’t seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious.
30lebo to všetko hľadajú národy tohoto sveta, a veď váš Otec vie, že to potrebujete.
30 For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things.
31Ale hľadajte kráľovstvo Božie, a to všetko vám bude pridané.
31 But seek God’s Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you.
32Neboj sa, malé stádečko! Lebo sa zaľúbilo vášmu Otcovi dať vám kráľovstvo!
32 Don’t be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.
33Predajte svoje imania a dajte almužnu! Urobte si mešce, ktoré nevetšejú, nepominuteľný poklad v nebesiach, kde sa neblíži zlodej, a moľ nekazí;
33 Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don’t grow old, a treasure in the heavens that doesn’t fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys.
34lebo kde je váš poklad, tam bude i vaše srdce.
34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35Nech sú vaše bedrá opásané a sviece horiace!
35 “Let your waist be dressed and your lamps burning.
36A vy podobní ľuďom, očakávajúcim svojho pána, kedy sa vráti zo svadby, aby mu, keď prijde a zaklepe, hneď otvorili.
36 Be like men watching for their lord, when he returns from the marriage feast; that, when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him.
37Blahoslavení to sluhovia, ktorých, keď prijde pán, najde bdieť! Ameň vám hovorím, že sa opáše a usadí ich za stôl a prijdúc bude ich obsluhovať.
37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord will find watching when he comes. Most certainly I tell you, that he will dress himself, and make them recline, and will come and serve them.
38A keby prišiel za druhej stráže a za tretej stráže keby prišiel a našiel tak, blahoslavení sú tí sluhovia!
38 They will be blessed if he comes in the second or third watch, and finds them so.
39Ale to vedzte, že keby vedel hospodár, v ktorú hodinu prijde zlodej, bdel by a nedal by preboriť svoj dom.
39 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not allowed his house to be broken into.
40Teda aj vy buďte hotoví, lebo v tú hodinu, ktorú sa nenazdáte, prijde Syn človeka.
40 Therefore be ready also, for the Son of Man is coming in an hour that you don’t expect him.”
41A Peter mu povedal: Pane, či len nám hovoríš toto podobenstvo a či aj všetkým?
41Peter said to him, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everybody?”
42A Pán povedal: Nuž kto tedy je to ten verný a opatrný správca, ktorého ustanoví pán nad svojou čeľaďou, aby jej na čas dával vymeraný pokrm?
42The Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times?
43Blahoslavený ten sluha, ktorého, keď prijde jeho pán, najde tak robiť!
43 Blessed is that servant whom his lord will find doing so when he comes.
44Pravdu vám hovorím, že ho ustanoví nad celým svojím majetkom.
44 Truly I tell you, that he will set him over all that he has.
45Ale keby povedal ten sluha vo svojom srdci: Môj pán odkladá s príchodom! A začal by sluhov biť aj slúžky a jesť a piť a opíjať sa -
45 But if that servant says in his heart, ‘My lord delays his coming,’ and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken,
46prijde pán toho sluhu v deň, v ktorý sa nenazdá, a v hodinu, ktorej nezná, a rozpoltí ho a jeho diel položí s nevernými.
46 then the lord of that servant will come in a day when he isn’t expecting him, and in an hour that he doesn’t know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful.
47A oný sluha, ktorý znal vôľu svojho pána a nezhotovil sa ani neurobil podľa jeho vôle, bude veľmi bitý.
47 That servant, who knew his lord’s will, and didn’t prepare, nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes,
48A zase ten, ktorý neznal, ale konal veci, hodné bitky, bude menej bitý. A od každého, komu je mnoho dané, bude sa vyhľadávať mnoho, a komu mnoho sverili, od toho budú viacej požadovať.
48 but he who didn’t know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.
49Oheň som prišiel hodiť na zem, a čo chcem, ak už je zapálený?
49 “I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled.
50Ale mám byť pokrstený krstom, a jaký som stiesnený, dokiaľ sa nesplní!
50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!
51A či sa domnievate, že som prišiel dať pokoj na zemi? Nie, hovorím vám, ale rozdelenie.
51 Do you think that I have come to give peace in the earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.
52Lebo odteraz budú piati v jednom dome rozdelení, traja proti dvom a dvaja proti trom.
52 For from now on, there will be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53Rozdelený bude otec proti synovi a syn proti otcovi, mať proti dcére a dcéra proti materi, svokra proti svojej neveste a nevesta proti svojej svokre.
53 They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against her mother; mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.” Micah 7:6
54A vravel i zástupom: Keď vidíte oblak, že vystupuje od západu, hneď hovoríte, že ide dážď, a býva tak.
54 He said to the multitudes also, “When you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and so it happens.
55A zase keď vidíte, že veje poludný vietor, hovoríte, že bude horúčava, a býva.
55 When a south wind blows, you say, ‘There will be a scorching heat,’ and it happens.
56Pokrytci, tvárnosť zeme a neba viete zkúmať a posúdiť, a jakože potom tohoto času nezkúmate?
56 You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you don’t interpret this time?
57A prečo aj sami od seba nesúdite toho, čo je spravedlivé?
57 Why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?
58Lebo kým ideš so svojím protivníkom k vrchnosti, na ceste sa pričiň o to, aby si sa ho sprostil, aby ťa snáď nezavliekol k sudcovi, a sudca by ťa vydal hajdúchovi, a hajdúch by ťa uvrhnul do žalára.
58 For when you are going with your adversary before the magistrate, try diligently on the way to be released from him, lest perhaps he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.
59Hovorím ti, že nevyjdeš ztade, dokiaľ nezaplatíš aj posledného haliera.
59 I tell you, you will by no means get out of there, until you have paid the very last penny. literally, lepton. A lepton is a very small brass Jewish coin worth half a Roman quadrans each, which is worth a quarter of the copper assarion. Lepta are worth less than 1% of an agricultural worker’s daily wages. ”
