¹Now it happened, while the multitude pressed on him and heard the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret.

¹A stalo sa, keď sa zástup na neho valil a počúval slovo Božie, a on stál vedľa Genezaretského jazera

²He saw two boats standing by the lake, but the fishermen had gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

²a videl dve lode, ktoré stály na kraji jazera, s ktorých rybári boli sišli a prali siete,

³He entered into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little from the land. He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat.

³že vstúpil do jednej z tých lodí, ktorá bola Šimonova, a poprosil ho, žeby odtiahol trochu od zeme. A sadnúc si učil zástupy s lode.

⁴When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch.”

⁴A keď prestal hovoriť, povedal Šimonovi: Zatiahni na hlbinu, a spustite svoje siete na lov.

⁵Simon answered him, “Master, we worked all night, and took nothing; but at your word I will let down the net.”

⁵A Šimon odpovedal a riekol mu: Pane, celú noc sme pracovali a nechytili sme ničoho, ale na tvoje slovo spustím sieť.

⁶When they had done this, they caught a great multitude of fish, and their net was breaking.

⁶A keď to urobili, zahrnuli veliké množstvo rýb, takže sa trhala ich sieť.

⁷They beckoned to their partners in the other boat, that they should come and help them. They came, and filled both boats, so that they began to sink.

⁷A zakývali na súdruhov, ktorí boli na tej druhej lodi, aby prišli a pomohli im. A prišli a naplnili obe lode, takže sa norily.

⁸But Simon Peter, when he saw it, fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.”

⁸Keď to videl Šimon Peter, padol k nohám Ježišovým a povedal: Odídi odo mňa, Pane, lebo som hriešny človek.

⁹For he was amazed, and all who were with him, at the catch of fish which they had caught;

⁹Lebo ho bola objala hrôza i všetkých, ktorí boli s ním, nad lovom rýb, ktoré boli ulovili,

¹⁰and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid. From now on you will be catching people alive.”

¹⁰a podobne i Jakoba i Jána, synov Zebedeových, ktorí boli spoločníkmi Šimonovými. A Ježiš povedal Šimonovi: Neboj sa, odteraz budeš loviť ľudí.

¹¹When they had brought their boats to land, they left everything, and followed him.

¹¹A keď pritiahli lode k zemi, opustil všetko a išli za ním.

¹²It happened, while he was in one of the cities, behold, there was a man full of leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell on his face, and begged him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”

¹²A stalo sa, keď bol v ktoromsi z tých miest, že hľa, bol tam nejaký muž, plný malomocenstva. A keď uvidel Ježiša, padol na tvár a prosil ho a hovoril: Pane, keby si chcel, môžeš ma očistiť.

¹³He stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, “I want to. Be made clean.” Immediately the leprosy left him.

¹³A Ježiš vystrel ruku, dotkol sa ho a povedal: Chcem, buď čistý! A hneď odišlo od neho malomocenstvo.

¹⁴He commanded him to tell no one, “But go your way, and show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing according to what Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.”

¹⁴A on mu prikázal, aby nikomu nepovedal, ale vraj odídi, ukáž sa kňazovi a obetuj za svoje očistenie, ako nariadil Mojžiš, im na svedoctvo.

¹⁵But the report concerning him spread much more, and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

¹⁵Ale povesť sa vždy väčšmi rozširovala o ňom. A mnohé zástupy sa schádzaly, aby ho počuli a aby boli ním uzdravení od svojich nemocí.

¹⁶But he withdrew himself into the desert, and prayed.

¹⁶Ale on uchádzal na púšte a modlil sa.

¹⁷It happened on one of those days, that he was teaching; and there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every village of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. The power of the Lord was with him to heal them.

¹⁷A stalo sa jedného z tých dní, že učil, a sedeli tam farizeovia a učitelia zákona, ktorí boli prišli zo všetkých mestečiek Galilee a Judska i z Jeruzalema, a moc Pánova bola prítomná uzdravovať ich.

¹⁸Behold, men brought a paralyzed man on a cot, and they sought to bring him in to lay before Jesus.

¹⁸A tu hľa, prišli mužovia nesúc na posteli človeka, ktorý bol porazený, a hľadali spôsob vniesť ho a položiť pred neho.

¹⁹Not finding a way to bring him in because of the multitude, they went up to the housetop, and let him down through the tiles with his cot into the midst before Jesus.

¹⁹A keď pre zástup nenašli cesty, ktorou by ho boli vniesli, vyšli na dom a spustili ho s posteľou cez tehly povaly do prostredku pred Ježiša.

²⁰Seeing their faith, he said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”

²⁰A on vidiac ich vieru povedal mu: Človeče, odpustené sú ti tvoje hriechy!

²¹The scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this that speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?”

²¹A zákonníci a farizeovia začali rozmýšľať a vraveli: A kto je tento, ktorý hovorí také rúhania? Kto môže odpúšťať hriechy krome samého Boha?

²²But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, answered them, “Why are you reasoning so in your hearts?

²²Ale Ježiš poznal ich myšlienky a odpovedal a riekol im: Čo to rozmýšľate vo svojich srdciach?

²³ Which is easier to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you;’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk?’

²³Čože je ľahšie, povedať: Odpustené sú ti tvoje hriechy, a či povedať: Vstaň a choď!?

²⁴ But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins” (he said to the paralyzed man), “I tell you, arise, and take up your cot, and go to your house.”

²⁴Ale aby ste vedeli, že Syn človeka má moc na zemi odpúšťať hriechy - riekol porazenému: Tebe hovorím: Vstaň, vezmi svoju posteľ a iď do svojho domu!

²⁵Immediately he rose up before them, and took up that which he was laying on, and departed to his house, glorifying God.

²⁵A naskutku vstal pred nimi, vzal to, na čom ležal, a odišiel do svojho domu oslavujúc Boha.

²⁶Amazement took hold on all, and they glorified God. They were filled with fear, saying, “We have seen strange things today.”

²⁶Vtedy pojal všetkých úžas, a oslavovali Boha a súc naplnení bázňou hovorili: Dnes sme videli neslýchané veci.

²⁷After these things he went out, and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax office, and said to him, “Follow me!”

²⁷A potom vyšiel von a videl colného, menom Léviho, sedieť na cle a povedal mu: Poď za mnou!

²⁸He left everything, and rose up and followed him.

²⁸A on zanechal všetko a vstal a išiel za ním.

²⁹Levi made a great feast for him in his house. There was a great crowd of tax collectors and others who were reclining with them.

²⁹A Lévi mu urobil veľkú počestnú hostinu vo svojom dome. A bol tam veliký zástup colných aj iných, ktorí stolovali s nimi.

³⁰Their scribes and the Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with the tax collectors and sinners?”

³⁰A ich zákonníci a farizeovia reptali proti jeho učeníkom a hovorili: Prečo jete a pijete s publikánmi a hriešnikmi?

³¹Jesus answered them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.

³¹A Ježiš odpovedal a riekol im: Zdraví nepotrebujú lekára, ale nemocní.

³² I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”

³²Neprišiel som volať spravedlivých, ale hriešnych ku pokániu.

³³They said to him, “Why do John’s disciples often fast and pray, likewise also the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink?”

³³A oni mu povedali: Prečo sa učeníci Jánovi často postia a modlia a podobne aj učeníci farizeov, a tvoji jedia a pijú?

³⁴He said to them, “Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast, while the bridegroom is with them?

³⁴A on im povedal: Či môžete rozkázať svadobníkom, kým je s nimi ženích, aby sa postili?

³⁵ But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them. Then they will fast in those days.”

³⁵Ale prijdú dni, a keď bude odňatý od nich ženích, potom sa budú postiť v tých dňoch.

³⁶He also told a parable to them. “No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old garment, or else he will tear the new, and also the piece from the new will not match the old.

³⁶A povedal im aj podobenstvo, že nikto neodtrhne záplaty od nového rúcha, aby ju prišil na staré rúcho. Lebo ináč aj nové potrhá, a starému nezodpovie záplata z toho nového.

³⁷ No one puts new wine into old wineskins, or else the new wine will burst the skins, and it will be spilled, and the skins will be destroyed.

³⁷A nikto vraj nevlieva nového vína do starých kožíc, lebo ináče nové víno potrhá kožice, aj samo sa vyleje, aj kožice sa zahubia.

³⁸ But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.

³⁸Ale nové víno sa má vliať do nových kožíc, a oboje sa zachová.

³⁹ No man having drunk old wine immediately desires new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”

³⁹A nikto, kto pije staré, nechce hneď nového, lebo hovorí: Staré je lepšie.
