Luke 9
1 Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
Convocó a los 12, y les dio poder y autoridad sobre todos los demonios y para sanar.
2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
Los envió a proclamar el reino de Dios y a sanar.
3 And he said unto them, Take nothing for [your] journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.
También les dijo: Nada tomen para el camino: ni bordón, ni mochila, ni pan, ni plata, ni usen doble ropa.
4 And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.
A la casa donde lleguen, posen allí hasta que salgan de la ciudad.
5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
Donde no los reciban, al salir de allí sacudan el polvo de sus pies, como testimonio contra ellos.
6 And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.
Cuando salieron, recorrían una por una las aldeas, anunciaban las Buenas Noticias y sanaban por todas partes.
7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said of some, that John was risen from the dead;
Herodes el tetrarca supo todas las cosas que pasaban y estaba muy perplejo porque algunos decían: Juan resucitó.
8 And of some, that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.
Otros [afirmaban]: ¡Elías apareció! Y otros: ¡Resucitó uno de los antiguos profetas!
9 And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.
Pero Herodes decía: Yo decapité a Juan. ¿Quién es Éste de quien oigo estas cosas? Y procuraba verlo.
10 And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.
Al regresar los apóstoles le relataron todo lo que hicieron. Y [Jesús] los tomó consigo y salió en privado a una ciudad llamada Betsaida.
11 And the people, when they knew [it], followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing.
Cuando la multitud se enteró, lo siguieron. Él los recibió, les hablaba del reino de Dios y sanaba a los enfermos.
12 And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place.
El día comenzó a declinar. Los 12 [se] acercaron y le dijeron: Despide a la multitud para que vayan a las aldeas y granjas de alrededor y busquen alojamiento y comida, porque aquí estamos en un lugar despoblado.
13 But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat for all this people.
Pero les dijo: Denles ustedes de comer. Ellos respondieron: No tenemos sino cinco panes y dos peces, a menos que nosotros vayamos y compremos comida para todo este pueblo.
14 For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
Porque eran como 5.000 hombres. Entonces mandó a sus discípulos: Que se reclinen en grupos de 50.
15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.
Así [lo] hicieron y reclinaron a todos.
16 Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.
[Él] tomó los cinco panes y los dos peces, miró al cielo y los bendijo. Partió en pedazos y daba a los discípulos para que los sirvieran a la multitud.
17 And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.
Todos comieron y se saciaron. Recogieron lo que les sobró: 12 cestos de pedazos.
18 And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?
Un día, después que [Jesús] hablaba a solas con Dios, los discípulos estaban con Él y les preguntó: Según la gente, ¿Quién soy Yo?
19 They answering said, John the Baptist; but some [say], Elias; and others [say], that one of the old prophets is risen again.
Ellos respondieron: [Unos], Juan el Bautista. Otros, Elías. Otros, un profeta antiguo que resucitó.
20 He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.
Les preguntó: ¿Y ustedes, quién dicen que soy? Y respondió Pedro: El Cristo de Dios.
21 And he straitly charged them, and commanded [them] to tell no man that thing;
Entonces Él les ordenó rigurosamente que a nadie hablaran de esto.
22 Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.
El Hijo del Hombre tiene que padecer muchas cosas. Será rechazado por los ancianos, los principales sacerdotes y los escribas. Será ejecutado y será resucitado al tercer día.
23 And he said to [them] all, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
Y decía a todos: Si alguno quiere seguirme, niéguese a sí mismo, levante su cruz cada día y sígame.
24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
El que quiera salvar su vida, la perderá, y cualquiera que pierda su vida por causa de Mí, la salvará.
25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
¿Qué beneficio obtiene el hombre si gana el mundo entero y se destruye o se pierde?
26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and [in his] Father’s, and of the holy angels.
Porque el que se avergüence de Mí y de mis Palabras, el Hijo del Hombre se avergonzará de él cuando venga en su gloria, [la] del Padre y de los santos ángeles.
27 But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
En verdad les digo que algunos de los que están aquí, que de ningún modo sufran muerte hasta que vean el reino de Dios.
28 And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.
Unos ocho días después de estas palabras, [Jesús ]tomó a Pedro, Juan y Jacobo y subió a la montaña a hablar con Dios.
29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment [was] white [and] glistering.
Mientras Él hablaba con Dios, su rostro cambió y su ropa se volvió blanca y resplandeciente.
30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:
Súbitamente aparecieron Moisés y Elías, dos varones quienes le hablaban.
31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.
Aparecieron en esplendor y hablaban de la partida de Él que iba a cumplir en Jerusalén.
32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.
Pedro y sus compañeros estaban cargados de sueño, pero al permanecer despiertos, vieron su gloria y a los dos varones que estaban con Él.
33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.
Cuando ellos se iban, Pedro, sin saber lo que expresaba, dijo a Jesús: Maestro, bueno es que nos quedemos aquí, y [que] hagamos tres enramadas: una para Ti, una para Moisés y una para Elías.
34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.
Mientras él hablaba, apareció una nube que los cubría. Al entrar ellos en la nube, se atemorizaron.
35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
De la nube salió una voz que decía: ¡Este es mi Hijo escogido! ¡Escúchenlo a Él!
36 And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.
Al cesar la voz, Jesús estaba solo. Los discípulos callaron y en aquellos días a nadie dijeron lo que vieron.
37 And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they were come down from the hill, much people met him.
Al día siguiente cuando bajó de la montaña, una gran multitud le salió al encuentro,
38 And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only child.
y un hombre clamó: Maestro, te suplico que veas a mi hijo unigénito.
39 And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth again, and bruising him hardly departeth from him.
Porque un espíritu lo toma, de repente da alaridos, lo convulsiona, le hace daño y no se aparta de él.
40 And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not.
Rogué a tus discípulos que lo echaran fuera, pero no pudieron.
41 And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.
Jesús respondió: ¡Oh generación incrédula y depravada! ¿Hasta cuándo estaré con ustedes? ¿Hasta cuándo tendré que soportarlos? Trae acá a tu hijo.
42 And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare [him]. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again to his father.
Cuando él llegaba, el demonio lo tiró al suelo y lo convulsionó. Pero Jesús reprendió al espíritu impuro, sanó al muchacho y lo devolvió a su padre.
43 And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,
Todos estaban asombrados de la grandeza de Dios. Mientras admiraban las cosas que hacía, Jesús dijo a sus discípulos:
44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.
Penetren estas Palabras en sus oídos. Porque el Hijo del Hombre va a ser entregado en manos de hombres.
45 But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.
Pero ellos no entendían esta palabra pues les estaba encubierta para que no la entendieran, y temían preguntarle acerca de esto.
46 Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.
Entonces discutieron quién de ellos sería el más grande.
47 And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him,
Pero Jesús entendió lo que pensaban. Tomó un niño, lo puso a su lado
48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.
y les dijo: Cualquiera que recibe a este niño en mi Nombre, me recibe. Cualquiera que me recibe, recibe al que me envió. Porque el menor entre ustedes es el mayor.
49 And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.
Juan dijo: Maestro, vimos a uno que echaba fuera demonios en tu Nombre. Le prohibimos, porque no sigue con nosotros.
50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid [him] not: for he that is not against us is for us.
Jesús le respondió: No [le] prohíban, porque el que no está contra ustedes, está a favor de ustedes.
51 And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,
Al cumplirse los días de su ascensión, Él afirmó su rostro para ir a Jerusalén.
52 And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.
Envió mensajeros delante de Él quienes fueron a una aldea de samaritanos a preparar [hospedaje] para Él.
53 And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.
Pero no lo recibieron, porque entendieron que iba a Jerusalén.
54 And when his disciples James and John saw [this], they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?
Cuando los discípulos vieron [esto, ] Jacobo y Juan preguntaron: Señor, ¿quieres que ordenemos que descienda fuego del cielo que los consuma?
55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.
Entonces [Él] dio la vuelta y los reprendió.
56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save [them]. And they went to another village.
Y fueron a otra aldea.
57 And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain [man] said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
Cuando iban por el camino, uno le dijo: Te seguiré adondequiera que vayas.
58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air [have] nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay [his] head.
Jesús le respondió: Las zorras tienen guaridas y las aves del cielo nidos, pero el Hijo del Hombre no tiene dónde recostar la cabeza.
59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
Y dijo a otro: ¡Sígueme! Pero él respondió: Permíteme primero que vaya [a] enterrar a mi padre.
60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.
Le dijo: Deja que los muertos entierren a sus muertos. Tú, ¡vé, proclama el reino de Dios!
61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
Otro le dijo: Te seguiré, Señor, pero primero permíteme despedirme de los que están en mi casa.
62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
Jesús contestó: Ninguno que pone la mano en un arado y mira atrás, es apto para el reino de Dios.
