¹Počiatok evanjelia Ježiša Krista, Syna Božieho, bol,

¹The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

²ako je napísané v prorokoch: Hľa, ja posielam svojho anjela pred tvojou tvárou, ktorý pripraví tvoju cestu pred tebou.

²As it is written in the prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you. Malachi 3:1

³Hlas volajúceho na púšti: Prihotovte cestu Pánovu, čiňte priame jeho chodníky!

³The voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of the Lord! Make his paths straight!’” Isaiah 40:3

⁴Ján vystúpil krstiac na púšti a kážuc krst pokánia na odpustenie hriechov.

⁴John came baptizing or, immersing in the wilderness and preaching the baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.

⁵A vychádzala k nemu celá krajina Judská i Jeruzalemänia, a všetci boli krstení od neho v rieke Jordáne vyznávajúc svoje hriechy.

⁵All the country of Judea and all those of Jerusalem went out to him. They were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.

⁶A Ján bol odiaty veľblúďou srsťou a okolo svojich bedier mal kožený opasok a jedol kobylky a poľný med.

⁶John was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.

⁷A kázal a hovoril: Ide za mnou silnejší odo mňa, ktorému nie som hoden zohnúť sa rozviazať remienok na jeho obuvi.

⁷He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.

⁸Ja som vás pokrstil vodou, ale on vás bude krstiť Svätým Duchom.

⁸I baptized you in The Greek word (en) translated here as “in” could also be translated as “with” in some contexts. water, but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.”

⁹A stalo sa v tých dňoch, že prišiel Ježiš z Galilejského Nazareta a bol pokrstený od Jána v Jordáne.

⁹It happened in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

¹⁰A hneď, keď vychádzal z vody, videl nebesia roztrhávané a Ducha, jako čo by holubicu, sostupujúceho na seba,

¹⁰Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.

¹¹a hlas zavznel z nebies: Ty si ten môj milovaný Syn, v ktorom sa mi zaľúbilo.

¹¹A voice came out of the sky, “You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

¹²A hneď ho pudil Duch na púšť.

¹²Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.

¹³A bol tam na púšti štyridsať dní súc pokúšaný od satana, a bol so zvieratami, a anjelia mu posluhovali.

¹³He was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.

¹⁴A potom, keď bol Ján vydaný, prišiel Ježiš do Galilee kážuc evanjelium kráľovstva Božieho

¹⁴Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom of God,

¹⁵a hovoril: Naplnil sa čas, a priblížilo sa kráľovstvo Božie. Čiňte pokánie a verte evanjelium!

¹⁵and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News.”

¹⁶A chodiac popri Galilejskom mori videl Šimona a Andreja, jeho brata, púšťať sieť do mora, lebo boli rybári.

¹⁶Passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.

¹⁷A Ježiš im povedal: Poďte za mnou, a učiním vás rybármi ľudí.

¹⁷Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men.”

¹⁸A hneď opustili svoje siete a išli za ním.

¹⁸Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.

¹⁹A keď pošiel odtiaľ kúsok ďalej, videl Jakoba, syna Zebedeovho, a Jána, jeho brata, aj ich tiež na lodi, naprávať siete.

¹⁹Going on a little further from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.

²⁰A hneď ich povolal. A oni opustiac svojho otca Zebedea na lodi s nájomníkmi odišli za ním.

²⁰Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.

²¹A vošli do Kafarnauma. A hneď v sobotu vošiel do synagógy a učil.

²¹They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.

²²A žasli nad jeho učením, lebo ich učil ako taký, ktorý má právo a moc, a nie ako zákonníci.

²²They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.

²³A hneď bol v ich synagóge človek v moci nečistého ducha, ktorý skríkol

²³Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,

²⁴a hovoril: Ó, čo máme s tebou, Ježišu Nazarénsky? Prišiel si nás zatratiť! Znám ťa, kto si, ten Svätý Boží!

²⁴saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Jesus, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God!”

²⁵A Ježiš mu pohrozil a povedal: Umĺkni a vyjdi z neho!

²⁵Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”

²⁶Vtedy polomcoval ním nečistý duch a skríknuc velikým hlasom vyšiel z neho.

²⁶The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.

²⁷A všetci sa zdesili, takže sa medzi sebou dopytovali a hovorili: Čo je toto?! Jaké je toto nové učenie?! Lebo v moci rozkazuje i nečistým duchom, a poslúchajú ho!

²⁷They were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!”

²⁸A jeho povesť sa hneď rozniesla po celom okolí Galilee.

²⁸The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.

²⁹A hneď, keď vyšli zo synagógy, prišli do domu Šimonovho a Andrejovho s Jakobom a Jánom.

²⁹Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

³⁰A Šimonova svokra ležala v horúčke, a hneď mu povedali o nej.

³⁰Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.

³¹A pristúpiac pozdvihol ju chopiac ju za ruku, a hneď ju opustila horúčka, a posluhovala im.

³¹He came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.

³²A keď už bol večer, keď bolo zapadlo slnce, nosili a vodili k nemu všetkých nemocných i posadlých démonami,

³²At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.

³³a celé mesto bolo shromaždené pri dveriach,

³³All the city was gathered together at the door.

³⁴a uzdravil mnohých nemocných, strápených rozličnými neduhy, aj mnoho démonov vyhnal, a nedal démonom hovoriť, lebo ho znali.

³⁴He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.

³⁵A ráno veľmi skoro, ešte za noci, vstal, vyšiel a odišiel na pusté miesto a tam sa modlil.

³⁵Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.

³⁶A ponáhľajúc sa sledovali ho Šimon aj tí, ktorí boli s ním.

³⁶Simon and those who were with him followed after him;

³⁷A keď ho našli, povedali mu: Všetci ťa hľadajú.

³⁷and they found him, and told him, “Everyone is looking for you.”

³⁸A povedal im: Poďme inde, do súsedných mestečiek, aby som i tam kázal, lebo na to som vyšiel.

³⁸He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason.”

³⁹A kázal v ich synagógach po celej Galilei a vyháňal démonov.

³⁹He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.

⁴⁰A prišiel k nemu malomocný a prosil ho, kľakol pred ním a povedal mu: Len keby si chcel, môžeš ma očistiť.

⁴⁰A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.”

⁴¹A Ježiš, ľútosťou hnutý, vystrel ruku, dotkol sa ho a povedal mu: Chcem, buď čistý!

⁴¹Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I want to. Be made clean.”

⁴²A keď to povedal, hneď odišlo od neho malomocenstvo, a bol očistený.

⁴²When he had said this, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.

⁴³A prísnosťou sa obrátiac na neho hneď ho poslal preč

⁴³He strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,

⁴⁴a riekol mu: Hľaď, aby si nikomu nepovedal ničoho! Ale iď, ukáž sa kňazovi a obetuj za svoje očistenie to, čo nariadil Mojžiš, im na svedoctvo.

⁴⁴and said to him, “See you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.”

⁴⁵Ale on vyjdúc začal rozhlasovať mnoho a rozchyrovať vec, takže už viacej nemohol vojsť verejne do mesta, ale bol vonku na pustých miestach. A prichádzali k nemu odovšadiaľ.

⁴⁵But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
