Matthew 23
1 Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples,
Tedaj je Jezus spregovoril množici in svojim učencem,
2 saying, The scribes and the Pharisees have set themselves down in Moses' seat:
rekoč: »Pisarji in farizeji sedijo na Mojzesovem stolu.
3 all things therefore, whatever they may tell you, do and keep. But do not after their works, for they say and do not,
Torej vse, karkoli vam ukažejo, obeležujte, to obeležujte in storite; toda ne delajte po njihovih delih, kajti oni govorijo, pa ne delajo.
4 but bind burdens heavy and hard to bear, and lay them on the shoulders of men, but will not move them with their finger.
Kajti vežejo težka bremena in bridka za prenašanje in jih polagajo ljudem na ramena, toda [sami] jih niti z enim izmed svojih prstov nočejo premakniti.
5 And all their works they do to be seen of men: for they make broad their phylacteries and enlarge the borders [of their garments],
Toda vsa svoja dela počnejo zato, da bi jih ljudje videli. Širijo svoje molitvene jermene in povečujejo robove svojih oblek
6 and love the chief place in feasts and the first seats in the synagogues,
in radi imajo najpomembnejše prostore na zabavah ter vodilne sedeže v sinagogah
7 and salutations in the market-places, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
in pozdrave na trgih ter da bi jih ljudje klicali: ›Rabi, Rabi.‹
8 But ye, be not ye called Rabbi; for one is your instructor, and all ye are brethren.
Toda ne dajte se imenovati Rabi, kajti eden je vaš Učitelj, celó Kristus, vi vsi pa ste bratje.
9 And call not [any one] your father upon the earth; for one is your Father, he who is in the heavens.
In na zemlji nobenega moža ne kličite vaš oče, kajti eden je vaš Oče, ki je v nebesih.
10 Neither be called instructors, for one is your instructor, the Christ.
Niti se ne dajte imenovati učitelji, kajti eden je vaš Učitelj, celó Kristus.
11 But the greatest of you shall be your servant.
Temveč kdor je med vami največji, naj bo vaš služabnik.
12 And whoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled, and whoever shall humble himself shall be exalted.
In kdorkoli se bo poviševal, bo ponižan; in kdor bo sebe ponižal, bo povišan.
13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye shut up the kingdom of the heavens before men; for ye do not enter, nor do ye suffer those that are entering to go in.
Toda gorje vam, pisarji in farizeji, hinavci! Kajti nebeško kraljestvo ste zaprli pred ljudmi, kajti sami ne greste noter niti tem, ki vstopajo, ne dovolite, da bi šli noter.
Gorje vam, pisarji in farizeji, hinavci! Kajti vdovam goltate hiše in za pretvezo opravljate dolgo molitev; zatorej boste prejeli večjo obsodbo.
15 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye compass the sea and the dry [land] to make one proselyte, and when he is become [such], ye make him twofold more [the] son of hell than yourselves. (Geenna g1067)
Gorje vam, pisarji in farizeji, hinavci! Kajti obidete morje in zemljo, da naredite enega spreobrnjenca in ko je narejen, ga naredite dvakrat bolj otroka pekla, kakor ste sami. (Geenna g1067)
16 Woe to you, blind guides, who say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor.
Gorje vam, vi slepi vodniki, ki pravite: ›Kdorkoli bo prisegel pri templju, ni to nič; toda kdorkoli bo prisegel pri tempeljskem zlatu, je dolžnik!‹
17 Fools and blind, for which is greater, the gold, or the temple which sanctifies the gold?
Vi bedaki in slepci. Kajti kaj je večje, zlato ali tempelj, ki posvečuje zlato?
18 And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it is a debtor.
In: ›Kdorkoli bo prisegel pri oltarju, ni to nič; toda kdorkoli prisega pri daru, ki je na njem, je kriv.‹
19 [Fools and] blind ones, for which is greater, the gift, or the altar which sanctifies the gift?
Vi bedaki in slepci. Kajti kaj je večje, dar ali oltar, ki posvečuje dar?
20 He therefore that swears by the altar swears by it and by all things that are upon it.
Kdorkoli bo torej prisegel pri oltarju, prisega pri njem in pri vseh stvareh na njem.
21 And he that swears by the temple swears by it and by him that dwells in it.
In kdorkoli bo prisegel pri templju, prisega pri njem in pri tistem, ki prebiva v njem.
22 And he that swears by heaven swears by the throne of God and by him that sits upon it.
In kdor bo prisegel pri nebesih, prisega pri Božjem prestolu in pri tistem, ki sedi na njem.
23 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye pay tithes of mint and anise and cummin, and ye have left aside the weightier matters of the law, judgment and mercy and faith: these ye ought to have done and not have left those aside.
Gorje vam, pisarji in farizeji, hinavci! Kajti plačujete desetino od mete in janeža in kumine, zanemarili pa ste pomembnejše zadeve iz postave, sodbo, usmiljenje in vero. Te bi morali storiti in ne pustiti drugih nenarejenih.
24 Blind guides, who strain out the gnat, but drink down the camel.
Vi slepi vodniki, ki precejate komarja in požirate kamelo.
25 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but within they are full of rapine and intemperance.
Gorje vam, pisarji in farizeji, hinavci! Ker naredite zunanjost čaše in pladnja čisto, toda znotraj ste polni izsiljevanja in izgreda.
26 Blind Pharisee, make clean first the inside of the cup and of the dish, that their outside also may become clean.
Ti slepi farizej, očisti najprej to, kar je znotraj čaše in pladnja, da bo tudi njuna zunanjost lahko čista.
27 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye are like whited sepulchres, which appear beautiful outwardly, but within are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness.
Gorje vam, pisarji in farizeji, hinavci! Kajti podobni ste pobeljenim mavzolejem, ki so na zunaj videti zares krasni, toda znotraj so polni kosti mrtvih ljudi in vse nečistosti.
28 Thus also ye, outwardly ye appear righteous to men, but within are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
Točno tako se tudi vi navzven kažete ljudem pravične, toda znotraj ste polni hinavščine in krivičnosti.
29 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets and adorn the tombs of the just,
Gorje vam, pisarji in farizeji, hinavci! Kajti prerokom gradite grobnice in okrašujete mavzoleje pravičnih,
30 and ye say, If we had been in the days of our fathers we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
in pravite: ›Če bi bili mi v dneh svojih očetov, ne bi bili z njimi soudeleženi pri prelivanju krvi prerokov.‹
31 So that ye bear witness of yourselves that ye are sons of those who slew the prophets:
Zatorej ste priče vam samim, da ste otroci teh, ki so morili preroke.
32 and ye, fill ye up the measure of your fathers.
Napolnite torej mero svojih očetov.
Vi kače, vi gadji rod, kako lahko pobegnete obsodbi na pekel? (Geenna g1067)
34 Therefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes; and [some] of them ye will kill and crucify, and [some] of them ye will scourge in your synagogues, and will persecute from city to city;
Zatorej glejte, k vam pošiljam preroke in modre može ter pisarje. In nekatere izmed njih boste ubili in križali; in nekatere izmed njih boste bičali v svojih sinagogah in jih preganjali od mesta do mesta,
35 so that all righteous blood shed upon the earth should come upon you, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
da lahko pride nad vas vsa pravična kri, prelita na zemlji, od krvi pravičnega Abela, do krvi Zaharija, Berehjájevega sina, ki ste ga umorili med templjem in oltarjem.
36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
Resnično, povem vam: ›Vse te stvari bodo prišle nad ta rod.‹
37 Jerusalem, Jerusalem, [the city] that kills the prophets and stones those that are sent unto her, how often would I have gathered thy children as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Oh Jeruzalem, Jeruzalem, ti, ki ubijaš preroke in kamnaš tiste, ki so poslani k tebi, kako pogosto sem hotel zbrati skupaj tvoje otroke, prav tako kakor koklja zbira svoje piščance pod svoje peruti, pa niste hoteli!
38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate;
Glejte, vaša hiša je zapuščena, prepuščena vam.
39 for I say unto you, Ye shall in no wise see me henceforth until ye say, Blessed [be] he that comes in the name of [the] Lord.
Kajti povem vam: ›Odslej me ne boste več videli, dokler ne boste rekli: ›Blagoslovljen je, kdor prihaja v Gospodovem imenu.‹«
