¹Skliče pa dvanajstere učence svoje in jim dá moč in oblast nad vsemi zlimi duhovi in da ozdravljajo bolezni.

¹He called the twelve TR reads “his twelve disciples” instead of “the twelve” together, and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

²In pošlje jih oznanjevat kraljestvo Božje in ozdravljat bolnike.

²He sent them forth to preach the Kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

³In reče jim: Ničesar ne jemljite na pot, ne palice, ne torbe, ne kruha, ne denarja; tudi po dve suknji ne imejte.

³He said to them, “Take nothing for your journey—neither staffs, nor wallet, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats apiece.

⁴In v katerokoli hišo pridete, tam prebivajte, in odtod pojdite dalje.

⁴ Into whatever house you enter, stay there, and depart from there.

⁵In katerikoli vas ne sprejmejo, odidite iz tistega mesta in otresite prah z nog svojih, v pričevanje zoper nje.

⁵ As many as don’t receive you, when you depart from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.”

⁶In odidejo in hodijo po vaseh, oznanjujoč evangelij in ozdravljajoč povsod.

⁶They departed, and went throughout the villages, preaching the Good News, and healing everywhere.

⁷Slišal je pa Herod četrtnik vse, kar on dela, in je bil v zadregi, zato ker so nekateri pravili: Janez je vstal iz mrtvih,

⁷Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him; and he was very perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

⁸nekateri pa: Elija se je prikazal, drugi pa: Starih prorokov eden je vstal.

⁸and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.

⁹In reče Herod: Janeza sem jaz obglavil; kdo je pa ta, ki slišim o njem take reči? In želel ga je videti.

⁹Herod said, “John I beheaded, but who is this, about whom I hear such things?” He sought to see him.

¹⁰In apostoli se vrnejo in mu pripovedujejo, koliko so storili. In vzame jih s seboj in se umakne v stran k mestu, ki se imenuje Betsaida.

¹⁰The apostles, when they had returned, told him what things they had done. He took them, and withdrew apart to a deserted place of a city called Bethsaida.

¹¹Ko pa množice to zvedo, odidejo za njim; in sprejme jih in jim govori o kraljestvu Božjem in ozdravlja tiste, ki so potrebovali zdravja.

¹¹But the multitudes, perceiving it, followed him. He welcomed them, and spoke to them of the Kingdom of God, and he cured those who needed healing.

¹²A dan se je jel nagibati, in pristopijo dvanajsteri in mu reko: Odpusti ljudstvo, da gredo v sosednje vasi in sela in tam prenočé in dobe živeža; kajti tu smo na samotnem kraju.

¹²The day began to wear away; and the twelve came, and said to him, “Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and farms, and lodge, and get food, for we are here in a deserted place.”

¹³On pa jim reče: Dajte jim vi jesti. A oni reko: Nimamo več nego pet hlebov in dve ribi; razen če gremo morda mi, da kupimo jedi za vse to ljudstvo.

¹³But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we should go and buy food for all these people.”

¹⁴Bilo jih je namreč kakih pet tisoč mož. Reče pa učencem svojim: Posadite jih v druščinah po petdeset.

¹⁴For they were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples, “Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”

¹⁵In storé tako in posade vse.

¹⁵They did so, and made them all sit down.

¹⁶Vzame pa petere hlebe in tisti dve ribi in pogleda v nebo in jih blagoslovi ter prelomi in podaja učencem svojim, naj polože pred ljudstvo.

¹⁶He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to the sky, he blessed them, and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.

¹⁷In jedli so in se nasitili vsi; in pobrali so, kar jim je ostalo od koscev, dvanajst košev.

¹⁷They ate, and were all filled. They gathered up twelve baskets of broken pieces that were left over.

¹⁸In zgodi se, ko je na samem molil, da so bili ž njim učenci njegovi; in vpraša jih, rekoč: Kdo pravijo ljudje, da sem jaz?

¹⁸It happened, as he was praying alone, that the disciples were with him, and he asked them, “Who do the multitudes say that I am?”

¹⁹Oni pa odgovore in reko: Da si Janez Krstnik, drugi pa: Elija, a drugi, da je eden starih prorokov vstal.

¹⁹They answered, “‘John the Baptizer,’ but others say, ‘Elijah,’ and others, that one of the old prophets is risen again.”

²⁰Pa jim reče: Kdo pa pravite vi, da sem jaz? Peter pa odgovori in reče: Kristus Božji.

²⁰He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”

²¹A on jim zapreti in naroči, naj nikomur ne povedo tega,

²¹But he warned them, and commanded them to tell this to no one,

²²govoreč: Sin človekov mora veliko pretrpeti in biti zavržen od starejšin in višjih duhovnikov in pismarjev in biti umorjen, a tretji dan vstati.

²²saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.”

²³Pravi pa vsem: Če kdo hoče za menoj iti, naj zataji samega sebe in vzame nase križ svoj vsak dan in gre za menoj.

²³He said to all, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, TR, NU add “daily” and follow me.

²⁴Kajti kdor hoče ohraniti življenje svoje, ga izgubi, kdor pa izgubi življenje svoje zaradi mene, ta ga ohrani.

²⁴ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake, the same will save it.

²⁵Kaj namreč pomaga človeku, če pridobi ves svet, samega sebe pa pogubi ali se oškoduje?

²⁵ For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits his own self?

²⁶Zakaj kdorkoli se sramuje mene in mojih besed, tega se bo Sin človekov sramoval, kadar pride v svoji in Očetovi in svetih angelov slavi.

²⁶ For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed, when he comes in his glory, and the glory of the Father, and of the holy angels.

²⁷Pravim vam pa resnično: So nekateri med tukaj stoječimi, ki ne okusijo smrti, dokler ne vidijo kraljestva Božjega.

²⁷ But I tell you the truth: There are some of those who stand here, who will in no way taste of death, until they see the Kingdom of God.”

²⁸Zgodi se pa kakih osem dni po teh besedah, da vzame s seboj Petra in Jakoba in Janeza ter gre na goro molit.

²⁸It happened about eight days after these sayings, that he took with him Peter, John, and James, and went up onto the mountain to pray.

²⁹In ko moli, postane podoba obličja njegovega drugačna in oblačilo njegovo belo in svetlo.

²⁹As he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became white and dazzling.

³⁰In glej, ž njim govorita dva moža, ki sta bila Mojzes in Elija.

³⁰Behold, two men were talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah,

³¹Ta sta se prikazala v slavi in sta govorila o njegovem odhodu s sveta, ki mu ga je bilo izvršiti v Jeruzalemu.

³¹who appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure, literally, “exodus” which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

³²A Petra in onadva, ki sta bila ž njim, prevzame spanec. Ko pa se vzdramijo, vidijo slavo njegovo in oba moža, ki sta ž njim stala.

³²Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.

³³In zgodi se, ko onadva odhajata od njega, da reče Peter Jezusu: Učenik, dobro nam je tu biti; naredimo pa tri šatore, tebi enega in Mojzesu enega in Eliju enega - ne vedoč, kaj govori.

³³It happened, as they were parting from him, that Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let’s make three tents: one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,” not knowing what he said.

³⁴Ali ko še govori, nastane oblak in jih obsenči; in zboje se, ko gresta onadva v oblak.

³⁴While he said these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.

³⁵In glas pride iz oblaka, ki pravi: Ta je Sin moj ljubljeni, njega poslušajte!

³⁵A voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him!”

³⁶In ko se je bil glas oglasil, najdejo Jezusa samega. In oni to zamolče, in nikomur niso v tistih dnevih povedali nič tega, kar so bili videli.

³⁶When the voice came, Jesus was found alone. They were silent, and told no one in those days any of the things which they had seen.

³⁷Zgodi se pa drugi dan, ko pridejo z gore, da ga sreča velika množica.

³⁷It happened on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met him.

³⁸In glej, mož izmed množice zavpije, rekoč: Učenik prosim te, ozri se na sina mojega, kajti edinec mi je.

³⁸Behold, a man from the crowd called out, saying, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.

³⁹In glej, duh ga napada, da nenadoma začne kričati, in ga lomi, da se ves peni, in le s težavo ga zapušča, ko ga je hudo zvil.

³⁹Behold, a spirit takes him, he suddenly cries out, and it convulses him so that he foams, and it hardly departs from him, bruising him severely.

⁴⁰In prosil sem učence tvoje, naj bi ga izgnali, a niso mogli.

⁴⁰I begged your disciples to cast it out, and they couldn’t.”

⁴¹Odgovori pa Jezus in reče: O rod neverni in popačeni, doklej bom pri vas in vas bom trpel? Pripelji sem sina svojega!

⁴¹Jesus answered, “Faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.”

⁴²A še medtem, ko gre k njemu, ga zgrabi zli duh in lomi. Jezus pa zapreti nečistemu duhu, in ozdravi dečka in ga spet da očetu njegovemu.

⁴²While he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him violently. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

⁴³In vsi so se čudili veličastvu Božjemu. Ko so se pa vsi čudili vsemu temu, kar je delal Jezus, reče učencem svojim:

⁴³They were all astonished at the majesty of God. But while all were marveling at all the things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples,

⁴⁴Ohranite vi v ušesih svojih te besede; kajti Sin človekov bo izdan v roke človeške.

⁴⁴ “Let these words sink into your ears, for the Son of Man will be delivered up into the hands of men.”

⁴⁵Oni pa niso umeli te besede, in bila jim je prikrita, da ne bi je razumeli, in bali so se ga poprašati o tej besedi.

⁴⁵But they didn’t understand this saying. It was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.

⁴⁶Polasti pa se jih razmišljanje, kdo bi bil največji med njimi.

⁴⁶There arose an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.

⁴⁷Jezus pa, vedoč misel njih srca, vzame otroka in ga postavi poleg sebe

⁴⁷Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their hearts, took a little child, and set him by his side,

⁴⁸in jim reče: Kdorkoli sprejme tega otroka v imenu mojem, mene sprejme; a kdorkoli mene sprejme, sprejme tega, ki me je poslal. Kdor je namreč najmanjši med vami vsemi, ta je velik.

⁴⁸and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me. Whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For whoever is least among you all, this one will be great.”

⁴⁹Odgovori pa Janez in reče: Učenik, videli smo nekoga, ki je z imenom tvojim izganjal zle duhove, in smo mu branili, ker ne hodi z nami za teboj.

⁴⁹John answered, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he doesn’t follow with us.”

⁵⁰Jezus mu pa reče: Ne branite! kajti kdor ni zoper vas, je za vas.

⁵⁰Jesus said to him, “Don’t forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us.”

⁵¹Zgodi se pa, ko so se dopolnjevali dnevi, da bi bil vzet gori, da on trdno nameri obličje svoje na pot v Jeruzalem.

⁵¹It came to pass, when the days were near that he should be taken up, he intently set his face to go to Jerusalem,

⁵²In pošlje poslance pred obličjem svojim; in ti gredo in pridejo v vas Samarijanov, da mu pripravijo prenočišče.

⁵²and sent messengers before his face. They went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, so as to prepare for him.

⁵³Ali niso ga sprejeli, ker je bilo obličje njegovo namerjeno na pot v Jeruzalem.

⁵³They didn’t receive him, because he was traveling with his face set towards Jerusalem.

⁵⁴Ko pa to vidita učenca njegova Jakob in Janez, rečeta: Gospod, hočeš li, da rečeva, da ogenj pade z neba in jih pokonča, kakor je tudi Elija storil?

⁵⁴When his disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from the sky, and destroy them, just as Elijah did?”

⁵⁵On pa se obrne in jim zapreti in reče: Ne veste, kakšnega duha ste.

⁵⁵But he turned and rebuked them, “You don’t know of what kind of spirit you are.

⁵⁶Sin človekov namreč ni prišel duš človeških pogubljat, ampak reševat. In šli so v drugo vas.

⁵⁶ For the Son of Man didn’t come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them.” They went to another village.

⁵⁷In ko so šli, mu reče nekdo po poti: Za teboj hočem iti, kamorkoli pojdeš.

⁵⁷As they went on the way, a certain man said to him, “I want to follow you wherever you go, Lord.”

⁵⁸In reče mu Jezus: Lisice imajo brloge in ptice nebeške gnezda, a Sin človekov nima, kamor bi naslonil glavo svojo.

⁵⁸Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”

⁵⁹A drugemu veli: Pojdi za menoj! On pa reče: Gospod, dovoli mi, da grem prej pokopat očeta svojega.

⁵⁹He said to another, “Follow me!” But he said, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”

⁶⁰A Jezus mu veli: Pusti, naj mrtvi pokopavajo mrliče svoje; ti pa pojdi in oznanjuj kraljestvo Božje.

⁶⁰But Jesus said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but you go and announce the Kingdom of God.”

⁶¹Reče pa tudi nekdo drugi: Za teboj hočem iti, Gospod, ali prej mi dovoli, da se poslovim od domačinov svojih.Jezus pa mu reče: Nobeden ni pripravljen za kraljestvo Božje, kdor prime z roko za plug, pa se ozira na to, kar je zadaj.

⁶¹Another also said, “I want to follow you, Lord, but first allow me to say good-bye to those who are at my house.”

⁶²Jezus pa mu reče: Nobeden ni pripravljen za kraljestvo Božje, kdor prime z roko za plug, pa se ozira na to, kar je zadaj.

⁶²But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God.”
