1It happened, that when he finished praying in a certain place, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples.”
1In zgodi se, ko je na nekem kraju molil, da mu reče, ko je nehal, eden učencev njegovih: Gospod, nauči nas moliti, kakor je tudi Janez naučil učence svoje.
2He said to them, “When you pray, say, ‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
2On pa jim reče: Kadar molite, recite: Oče naš, ki si v nebesih, posvečeno bodi ime tvoje. Pridi kraljestvo tvoje. Zgodi se volja tvoja kakor v nebesih tudi na zemlji.
3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
3Kruh naš vsakdanji daj nam vsak dan.
4 Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’”
4In odpusti nam grehe naše, ker tudi mi odpuščamo vsakemu dolžniku svojemu. In ne vpelji nas v izkušnjavo, temuč reši nas zlega.
5He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight, and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
5In reče jim: Kdo izmed vas ima prijatelja, in pojde k njemu opolnoči in mu poreče: Prijatelj, posodi mi tri hlebe,
6 for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’
6ker je prijatelj moj prišel s pota k meni, pa mu nimam kaj postaviti.
7 and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’?
7Oni pa bi odznotraj odgovoril in rekel: Ne bodi mi nadležen: duri so že zaprte in otroci moji so z menoj v postelji; ne morem vstati in ti dati.
8 I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.
8Pravim vam, čeprav ne vstane, da bi mu dal zato, ker mu je prijatelj, vstane vsaj zaradi nadležnega moledovanja njegovega in mu da, kolikor potrebuje.
9 “I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.
9In jaz vam pravim: Prosite, in dalo se vam bo; iščite, in našli boste; trkajte, in odprlo se vam bo.
10 For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
10Kajti vsak, kdor prosi, prejme, in kdor išče, najde, in kdor trka, se mu odpre.
11 “Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?
11Kdo izmed vas pa je oče, in če ga prosi sin kruha, pa mu da kamen? ali če prosi ribe, pa mu da namesto ribe kačo?
12 Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he?
12ali če prosi jajca, pa mu da škorpijona?
13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”
13Če torej vi, ki ste hudobni, znate dobre darove dajati otrokom svojim, koliko bolj bo dal Oče nebeški svetega Duha tem, ki ga prosijo.
14He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. It happened, when the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the multitudes marveled.
14In izganjal je zlega duha, in ta je bil mutast. Zgodi se pa, ko je zli duh izšel, da mutec izpregovori; in množice se začudijo.
15But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
15A nekateri izmed njih reko: Z Belzebulom, poglavarjem hudičev, izganja zle duhove.
16Others, testing him, sought from him a sign from heaven.
16Drugi pa, izkušajoč ga, zahtevajo od njega znamenja z neba.
17But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. A house divided against itself falls.
17On pa, vedoč njih misli, jim reče: Vsako kraljestvo, ki se je samo zoper sebe razdvojilo, propade, in dom, zoper sebe razdvojen, razpade.
18 If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.
18Če se je pa tudi satan zoper sebe razdvojil, kako bo ostalo kraljestvo njegovo? ker pravite, da z Belzebulom izganjam zle duhove.
19 But if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore will they be your judges.
19A če jaz z Belzebulom izganjam zle duhove, s čigavo pomočjo jih izganjajo sinovi vaši? Zato vam bodo oni sodniki.
20 But if I by the finger of God cast out demons, then the Kingdom of God has come to you.
20Če pa s prstom Božjim izganjam zle duhove, torej je že prišlo k vam kraljestvo Božje.
21 “When the strong man, fully armed, guards his own dwelling, his goods are safe.
21Kadar se močni dobro oboroži in varuje dvor svoj, je v miru imetje njegovo;
22 But when someone stronger attacks him and overcomes him, he takes from him his whole armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoils.
22ako pa pride nanj močnejši od njega in ga premaga, mu pobere vse orožje njegovo, v katero je upal, in razdeli njegov plen.
23 “He that is not with me is against me. He who doesn’t gather with me scatters.
23Kdor ni z menoj, je zoper mene, in kdor ne zbira z menoj, razsiplje.
24 The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of the man, passes through dry places, seeking rest, and finding none, he says, ‘I will turn back to my house from which I came out.’
24Kadar nečisti duh izide iz človeka, hodi po suhih krajih in išče pokoja; in ko ga ne najde, pravi: Vrnil se bom na dom svoj, odkoder sem izšel.
25 When he returns, he finds it swept and put in order.
25In ko pride tja, ga najde pometenega in olepšanega.
26 Then he goes, and takes seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first.”
26Tedaj odide in vzame sedem drugih duhov, hujših od sebe, in gredo vanj in tu prebivajo: in poslednje tega človeka postane hujše od prvega.
27It came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman out of the multitude lifted up her voice, and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts which nursed you!”
27Zgodi se pa, ko je to govoril, da povzdigne neka žena izmed množice glas svoj in mu reče: Blagor telesu, ki te je nosilo, in prsim, ki si jih sesal!
28But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.”
28On pa veli: Veliko bolj blagor tem, ki besedo Božjo poslušajo in jo hranijo!
29When the multitudes were gathering together to him, he began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks after a sign. No sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah, the prophet.
29Ko so se pa množice zbirale pri njem, jim začne govoriti: Ta rod je hudoben rod: znamenja išče, ali ne bo se mu dalo znamenje, razen znamenja Jona proroka.
30 For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so will also the Son of Man be to this generation.
30Kakor je bil namreč Jona znamenje Ninivljanom, tako bo tudi Sin človekov znamenje temu rodu.
31 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and will condemn them: for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, one greater than Solomon is here.
31Kraljica od juga vstane na sodbo z možmi tega rodu in jih obsodi; kajti prišla je od kraja sveta poslušat modrost Salomonovo; in glej, večji je tu od Salomona.
32 The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, one greater than Jonah is here.
32Možje Ninivljani vstanejo na sodbo s tem rodom in ga obsodijo; kajti izpokorili so se po propovedi Jonovi; in glej, večji je tu od Jona.
33 “No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.
33Nihče pa ne dene sveče, ko jo prižge, na skrit kraj, tudi ne pod mernik, ampak na svečnik, da vidijo luč, kateri prihajajo.
34 The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.
34Svetilo telesu tvojemu je oko: kadar je torej oko tvoje zdravo, je svetlo tudi vse telo tvoje; ko pa je pokvarjeno, je temno tudi telo tvoje.
35 Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.
35Zato glej, da ne bo luč, ki je v tebi, tema.
36 If therefore your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly full of light, as when the lamp with its bright shining gives you light.”
36Če je torej vse telo tvoje svetlo in nima nobenega temnega uda, bo vseskozi svetlo, kakor kadar te svetilnica obsije z jasno svetlobo.
37Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in, and sat at the table.
37Medtem pa, ko je govoril, ga zaprosi neki farizej, naj bi obedoval pri njem. Prišedši pa tja, sede za mizo.
38When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.
38Ko pa to vidi farizej, se začudi, da se ni prej umil pred obedom.
39The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
39Gospod mu pa reče: Sedaj vi farizeji čistite kozarec in skledo odzunaj, kar je pa znotraj vas, je polno ropa in hudobije.
40 You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?
40Neumneži, mar ni ta, ki je naredil to, kar je zunaj, naredil tudi tega, kar je znotraj?
41 But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.
41Sicer pa dajte v miloščino tega, kar je notri, in glej, vse vam je čisto.
42 But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and the love of God. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
42Ali gorje vam farizejem, da dajete desetino od mete in od rute in od vsakega zelišča, izogibate se pa sodbe in ljubezni Božje: to je bilo treba storiti in onega ne opustiti.
43 Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues, and the greetings in the marketplaces.
43Gorje vam farizejem, da ljubite prve stole v shodnicah in pozdrave po ulicah.
44 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like hidden graves, and the men who walk over them don’t know it.”
44Gorje vam, da ste kakor skriti grobovi, po katerih ljudje hodijo in ne vedo zanje.
45One of the lawyers answered him, “Teacher, in saying this you insult us also.”
45Odgovori pa eden izmed učenikov postave in mu reče: Učenik, s takimi besedami sramotiš tudi nas.
46He said, “Woe to you lawyers also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens.
46On pa mu reče: Gorje tudi vam učenikom postave, ker nakladate ljudem neznosne butare, a sami se niti z enim prstom ne dotaknete butar.
47 Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
47Gorje vam, da zidate grobne spomenike prorokom, očetje vaši pa so jih pobili.
48 So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.
48S tem torej ste priče delom očetov svojih in jih odobravate: kajti oni so jih pobili, a vi jim zidate nadgrobke.
49 Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute,
49Zato je tudi modrost Božje rekla: Pošljem k njim proroke in apostole, in nekatere njih umore in preženo,
50 that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;
50da se bo zahtevala od tega rodu vseh prorokov kri, ki se je prelila od začetka sveta,
51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.
51od krvi Abelove, do krvi Zaharijeve, ki je poginil med oltarjem in svetiščem. Da, pravim vam, zahtevala se bo od tega rodu.
52 Woe to you lawyers! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”
52Gorje vam učenikom postave, ker ste vzeli ključ do spoznanja: sami niste šli do njega, a tem, ki so hoteli vstopiti, ste zabranili.
53As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him;
53Ko je pa odšel odtod, začno pismarji in farizeji zelo pritiskati nanj in ga vpraševati o raznoterih rečeh,prežeč nanj, da bi kaj ujeli iz ust njegovih.
54lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.
54prežeč nanj, da bi kaj ujeli iz ust njegovih.
