Luke 14
1 And it came to pass, when he went into the house of a certain man of the chiefs of the Pharisees on a sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.
In pripetilo se je, medtem ko je odšel v hišo enega izmed vodilnih farizejev, da bi na šabatni dan jedel kruh, da so ga ti opazovali.
2 And behold, there was a certain man in front of him afflicted with edema.
In glej, pred njim je bil nek človek, ki je imel vodenico.
3 And having responded, Jesus spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it permitted to heal on the sabbath?
In Jezus je izvedencem v postavi in farizejem odgovarjal ter govoril, rekoč: »Ali je zakonito zdraviti na šabatni dan?«
4 But they were silent. And having taken him, he healed him and released him.
Oni pa so molčali. In prijel ga je in ozdravil ter ga pustil oditi,
5 And having responded, he said to them, Of which of you will a son or an ox fall into a pit, and he will not straightaway lift him out on the day of the sabbath?
in odgovoril jim je, rekoč: »Komu izmed vas pade osel ali vol v jamo in ga ne bo nemudoma, na šabatni dan, izvlekel ven?«
6 And they could not answer him back to these things.
In ponovno mu niso mogli odgovoriti na te stvari.
7 And he spoke a parable to those who were invited when he noticed how they chose out the chief places, saying to them,
In ko je opazil, kako izbirajo vodilna mesta, je tem, ki so bili povabljeni, podal prispodobo, rekoč jim:
8 When thou are invited by any man to wedding festivities, do not sit down in the chief place, lest there may be a more honorable man than thou who was invited by him.
»Kadar te katerikoli človek povabi na poroko, se ne usedi na najvišje mesto, da ne bi le-ta povabil častitljivejšega človeka, kakor si ti,
9 And he who invited thee and him, having come, will say to thee, Give place to this man, and then thou will begin with embarrassment to take the last place.
in ne bi prišel ta, ki je povabil tebe in njega in ti rekel: ›Daj prostor temu človeku, ‹ ti pa si boš s sramoto začel jemati najnižji prostor.
10 But when thou are invited, having gone, sit down in the last place, so that when he who has invited thee comes, he will say to thee, Friend, go up higher, then it will be esteem to thee in the presence of those dining with thee.
Toda kadar si povabljen, pojdi in se usedi na najnižji prostor, da ti lahko reče, kdor te je povabil, ko pride k tebi: ›Prijatelj, pojdi višje, ‹ potem boš imel oboževanje v prisotnosti teh, ki s teboj sedijo pri obedu.
11 Because every man who lifts himself up will be made lower, and he who makes himself lower will be lifted up.
Kajti kdorkoli se povišuje, bo ponižan, kdor pa se ponižuje, bo povišan.«
12 And he also said to the man who invited him, When thou make a dinner or a supper, do not call thy friends, nor thy brothers, nor thy kinsmen, nor prosperous neighbors, lest they also invite thee in return, and a recompense be made to thee.
Potem je prav tako rekel tistemu, ki ga je povabil: »Kadar pripravljaš kosilo ali večerjo, ne pokliči svojih prijateljev, niti svojih bratov, niti svojih sorodnikov, niti svojih bogatih sosedov, da te ne bi tudi oni povabili in ti povrnili.
13 But when thou make a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind,
Toda kadar pripravljaš pojedino, pokliči revne, pohabljene, hrome, slepe
14 and thou will be blessed, because they do not have to recompense thee, for it will be recompensed to thee at the resurrection of the righteous.
in boš blagoslovljen, ker ti ne morejo poplačati, kajti poplačano ti bo ob vstajenju pravičnih.«
15 And a certain man of those dining together having heard these things, he said to him, Blessed is he who will eat dinner in the kingdom of God.
In ko je eden izmed teh, ki je pri obedu sedel z njim, slišal te stvari, mu je rekel: »Blagoslovljen je, kdor bo jedel kruh v Božjem kraljestvu.«
16 And he said to him, A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many.
On pa mu je potem rekel: »Neki človek je priredil veliko večerjo in povabil mnoge.
17 And he sent forth his bondman at the hour of the meal to say to those who were invited, Come, because all things are now ready.
Ob času večerje pa je poslal svojega služabnika, da pove tem, ki so bili povabljeni: ›Pridite, kajti sedaj so vse stvari pripravljene.‹
18 And they all from one began to make excuse. The first said to him, I have bought a field, and I have need to go out and see it. I ask thee have me excused.
Vsi pa so se začeli soglasno opravičevati. Prvi mu je rekel: ›Kupil sem kos zemlje in nujno ga moram iti pogledat. Prosim te, imej me za opravičenega.‹
19 And another said, I bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to test them. I ask thee have me excused.
In drugi je rekel: ›Kupil sem pet jarmov volov in grem, da jih preizkusim. Prosim te, imej me za opravičenega.‹
20 And another said, I married a wife, and because of this I cannot come.
In drugi je rekel: ›Poročil sem ženo in zato ne morem priti.‹
21 And that bondman, having come, he informed his lord these things. Then the house-ruler having become angry, he said to his bondman, Go out quickly into the thoroughfares and lanes of the city, and bring here the poor and maimed and crippled and blind.
Tako, da je ta služabnik prišel in te stvari sporočil svojemu gospodarju. Potem je hišni gospodar jezen rekel svojemu služabniku: ›Pojdi hitro ven na ulice in mestne ceste ter pripelji sèm revne in pohabljene in šepave in slepe.‹
22 And the bondman said, Lord, as thou commanded it has happened, and yet there is room.
In služabnik je rekel: ›Gospod, narejeno je, kakor si zapovedal in še je prostor.‹
23 And the lord said to the bondman, Go out into the roads and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
In gospodar je rekel služabniku: ›Pojdi ven na glavne ceste ter ograje in jih prisili, da vstopijo, da se bo moja hiša lahko napolnila.‹
24 For I say to you, that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper. For many are called, but few chosen.
Kajti povem vam: ›Da nihče izmed tistih ljudi, ki so bili povabljeni, ne bo okusil moje večerje.‹«
25 Now many multitudes went with him, and having turned, he said to them,
In z njim so šle velike množice, on pa se je obrnil in jim rekel:
26 If any man comes to me, and does not regard as inferior his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, and besides his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
»Če katerikoli človek pride k meni in ne sovraži svojega očeta in matere in žene in otrok in bratov in sester, da in tudi svojega lastnega življenja, ne more biti moj učenec.
27 And whoever does not bear his cross, and come behind me, cannot be my disciple.
In kdorkoli ne nosi svojega križa in ne sledi meni, ne more biti moj učenec.
28 For which of you wanting to build a tower, does not, having first sat down, count the cost whether he has the things for completion?
Kajti kdo izmed vas, ki hoče zgraditi stolp, se prej ne usede in ne prešteje stroška, ali ima zadosti, da ga dokonča?
29 So that perhaps, having laid its foundation, and not being able to finish, all those who see begin to ridicule him,
Da ga ne bi morda potem, ko je položil temelj, pa ga ne bi bil zmožen dokončati, vsi tisti, ki so to gledali, začeli zasmehovati,
30 saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
rekoč: ›Ta človek je začel graditi, pa ni bil zmožen dokončati.‹
31 Or what king going to encounter another king in war, will not, having first sat down, consult whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
Ali kateri kralj, ki pripravlja vojno proti drugemu kralju, prej ne séde in se posvetuje, če bo zmožen z deset tisoči srečati tistega, ki prihaja nadenj z dvajsetimi tisoči?
32 And if not, while he is still far off, having sent a delegation, he asks the things about peace.
Sicer, dokler je drugi še daleč, on pošlje poslanstvo in prosi pogoje za mir.
33 So therefore every man of you who does not renounce all things being possessed by him, cannot be my disciple.
Torej podobno, kdorkoli izmed vas, ki ne zapusti vsega, kar ima, ne more biti moj učenec.
34 The salt material is good, but if the salt material becomes tasteless, by what will it be seasoned?
Sol je dobra, toda če je sol izgubila svoj okus, s čim se bo začinila?
35 It is fit neither for the land nor for manure; they cast it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
Niti ni primerna za zemljo niti za gnojišče, temveč jo ljudje mečejo ven. Kdor ima ušesa, da slišijo, naj posluša.«
