< John 4 >
1 [At that time, many people were asking] Jesus to baptize them. He did not baptize people; it was [we] his disciples who were doing the baptizing. But when some of the Pharisee [religious group] heard [people say that] Jesus was making more disciples than John [the Baptizer] and was baptizing them, [they became very jealous].
Когда же узнал Иисус о дошедшем до фарисеев слухе, что Он более приобретает учеников и крестит, нежели Иоанн, -
хотя Сам Иисус не крестил, а ученики Его, -
3 When the Lord [Jesus] heard about that, [so that the Pharisees would not cause trouble for him], he left Judea [district], and went again [with us disciples] to Galilee district.
то оставил Иудею и пошел опять в Галилею.
4 [He] knew that God wanted him to travel through Samaria [district].
Надлежало же Ему проходить через Самарию.
5 So we arrived at a town named Sychar in Samaria [district]. That was near the plot of ground that [our ancestor] Jacob had given to his son Joseph [long ago].
Итак приходит Он в город Самарийский, называемый Сихарь, близ участка земли, данного Иаковом сыну своему Иосифу.
6 The well that [used to] belong to Jacob was on that plot of ground. Jesus was tired from walking. So while [we] disciples went into the town to buy some food, he sat down alongside the well. It was about noontime. A woman who [lived there] in Samaria came to get some water [from the well]. Jesus said to her, “Will you give me [from the well] some water [to drink]?” The [woman knew that] Jews did not like ([to touch things that belong to] Samaritans/[to] come near Samaritans), (OR, Jews did not like to associate with Samaritans, )
Там был колодезь Иаковлев. Иисус, утрудившись от пути, сел у колодезя. Было около шестого часа.
Приходит женщина из Самарии почерпнуть воды. Иисус говорит ей: дай Мне пить.
Ибо ученики Его отлучились в город купить пищи.
9 so the woman said to him, “You are a Jew, and I am from Samaria. Furthermore, I am a woman. So ([I am surprised] that you are asking me for a drink [of water]!/how is it that you are asking me for a drink [of water]?) [RHQ]”
Женщина Самарянская говорит Ему: как ты, будучи Иудей, просишь пить у меня, Самарянки? ибо Иудеи с Самарянами не сообщаются.
10 Jesus replied to her, “If you [(sg)] knew what God [wanted to] give you, and if you knew who I am, the one who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked me, and I would have given you water that gives life.”
Иисус сказал ей в ответ: если бы ты знала дар Божий и Кто говорит тебе: дай Мне пить, то ты сама просила бы у Него, и Он дал бы тебе воду живую.
11 She [thought he was talking about] ordinary [water. So she] said to him, “Sir, you do not have a bucket [or a rope with which to get water from the well], and the well is deep. So [since you cannot get water from this well], where can you get that life-giving water?
Женщина говорит Ему: господин! тебе и почерпнуть нечем, а колодезь глубок; откуда же у тебя вода живая?
12 Our ancestor Jacob left us this well. He drank water from it, and there was [enough good water] so that his sons and his flocks [of sheep] and goats drank from it also. [Do you claim that] you are greater than Jacob, [and because of that you can give us life-giving water]?”
Неужели ты больше отца нашего Иакова, который дал нам этот колодезь и сам из него пил, и дети его, и скот его?
13 Jesus replied to her, “Everyone who drinks water from this [well] will later become thirsty again.
Иисус сказал ей в ответ: всякий, пьющий воду сию, возжаждет опять,
14 But those who drink the water that I will give them will never be thirsty again. On the contrary, the water that I give them will become in their inner beings like a spring of water that will enable them to have eternal life.” (aiōn , aiōnios )
а кто будет пить воду, которую Я дам ему, тот не будет жаждать вовек; но вода, которую Я дам ему, сделается в нем источником воды, текущей в жизнь вечную. (aiōn , aiōnios )
15 The woman [did not understand that Jesus was speaking figuratively about something that would sustain her spiritually. So she] said to him, “Sir, give me that kind of water so that I will not get thirsty again, and so that I will not have to keep returning here to get water!”
Женщина говорит Ему: господин! дай мне этой воды, чтобы мне не иметь жажды и не приходить сюда черпать.
16 [Jesus knew that she did not understand, but he wanted to show her by his God-given knowledge of her personal life that because he was the Messiah he could supply her spiritual need. So] he said to her, “Woman, go and call your husband, and bring him here!”
Иисус говорит ей: пойди, позови мужа твоего и приди сюда.
17 She replied, “I do not have a husband!” Jesus said to her, “You said that you do not have a husband, and that is true.
Женщина сказала в ответ: у меня нет мужа. Иисус говорит ей: правду ты сказала, что у тебя нет мужа,
18 It is also true that you have had five husbands [one by one]. And the man you are living with now is not your husband! What you have said is very true.”
ибо у тебя было пять мужей, и тот, которого ныне имеешь, не муж тебе; это справедливо ты сказала.
19 The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive you must be a prophet [because you are] able [to know people’s secrets].
Женщина говорит Ему: Господи! вижу, что Ты пророк.
20 But [let me ask you a different question]: Our ancestors worshipped God here on [Gerizim Mountain], but you [Jews] say that Jerusalem is the place where we must worship [God. So who is right]?”
Отцы наши поклонялись на этой горе, а вы говорите, что место, где должно поклоняться, находится в Иерусалиме.
21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me [when I say that] there will be a time when it will not [matter whether] you worship [God our] Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem [or somewhere else].
Иисус говорит ей: поверь Мне, что наступает время, когда и не на горе сей, и не в Иерусалиме будете поклоняться Отцу.
22 You [people from Samaria] do not know the one you are worshipping. But we [(exc) Jews] know whom we worship, because it is from [us] Jews that [God has sent the one who] will save people [from the guilt of their sins].
Вы не знаете, чему кланяетесь, а мы знаем, чему кланяемся, ибо спасение от Иудеев.
23 However, there will be a time when those who genuinely worship God will worship him as [God’s] Spirit [directs] and according to [God’s] truth. In fact, that time is now. Those are the kind of worshipers my Father seeks.
Но настанет время и настало уже, когда истинные поклонники будут поклоняться Отцу в духе и истине, ибо таких поклонников Отец ищет Себе.
24 God is a spiritual being. So it is necessary that those who worship him must worship him as his Spirit [directs] and [according to God’s] truth.”
Бог есть дух, и поклоняющиеся Ему должны поклоняться в духе и истине.
25 The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah is coming. When he comes, he will tell us everything [we need to know].” (‘Messiah’ and ‘Christ’ [both mean ‘God’s promised king]’.)
Женщина говорит Ему: знаю, что придет Мессия, то есть Христос; когда Он придет, то возвестит нам все.
26 Jesus said to her, “I, the one speaking to you, am [the Messiah]!”
Иисус говорит ей: это Я, Который говорю с тобою.
27 Just then [we] disciples returned [from town]. [Since it was contrary to our custom for Jewish religious teachers to converse with a woman they did not know], we were surprised that he was talking to a woman. However, none of us asked her, “What do you want?” and none of us asked him, “Why are you talking with her?”
В это время пришли ученики Его и удивились, что Он разговаривал с женщиною; однакож ни один не сказал: чего Ты требуешь? или: о чем говоришь с нею?
28 The woman left her water jar there and went into the town. She said to the people there,
Тогда женщина оставила водонос свой, и пошла в город, и говорит людям:
29 “Come and see a man who [was able to] tell me all about my past life [HYP], [even though I never met him before] Could this man be the Messiah?”
пойдите, посмотрите Человека, Который сказал мне все, что я сделала: не Он ли Христос?
30 So [many people] left the town and started going to where Jesus was.
Они вышли из города и пошли к Нему.
31 Meanwhile, we disciples were urging him, “Teacher, eat [some of the food we brought]!”
Между тем ученики просили Его, говоря: Равви! ешь.
32 But he said to us, “I have food to eat that you do not know anything about!”
Но Он сказал им: у Меня есть пища, которой вы не знаете.
33 So we started saying to each other, “(Surely no one has brought him any food [when we] were not [here]!/Has anyone brought him any food [when we] were not [here]?) [RHQ]”
Посему ученики говорили между собою: разве кто принес Ему есть?
34 Jesus said to us, “Doing what [my Father] who sent me wants [me to do] and finishing the work he [gave me to do] is ([what sustains me/like] my food) [MET].
Иисус говорит им: Моя пища есть творить волю Пославшего Меня и совершить дело Его.
35 [At this time of the year] you are saying (OR, your ancestors used to say), ‘There are four months left before we harvest [the crops].’ But I say to you, look carefully [at the non-Jewish people around here. God says, ‘They are ready to accept my message] [MET], [like crops in] fields that are ready for people to harvest.
Не говорите ли вы, что еще четыре месяца, и наступит жатва? А Я говорю вам: возведите очи ваши и посмотрите на нивы, как они побелели и поспели к жатве.
36 [If you help them to accept my message], I will reward you [MET], [as an owner of a field] pays those who harvest the crops. Because of your work, people will gain eternal life.’ [I have been telling people God’s message. That is like] [MET] a man who plants seeds. [You will help people to accept my message. That will be like] [MET] harvesting crops. [When that happens], both you and I will rejoice. (aiōnios )
Жнущий получает награду и собирает плод в жизнь вечную, так что и сеющий и жнущий вместе радоваться будут, (aiōnios )
37 As a result, this saying will become true: One person plants [seeds], but others harvest [the crops].
ибо в этом случае справедливо изречение: один сеет, а другой жнет.
38 I am sending you [to enable people to accept my message, but you will not be the first ones who tell them God’s message]. Others [previously] worked hard [to tell people God’s message], and now you will be harvesting the results of their work.”
Я послал вас жать то, над чем вы не трудились: другие трудились, а вы вошли в труд их.
39 Many of the Samaria [district] people who [lived] in that town believed that Jesus [was the Messiah] because they heard what that woman said [about Jesus], “That man [was able to] tell me all about my past life [HYP]!”
И многие Самаряне из города того уверовали в Него по слову женщины, свидетельствовавшей, что Он сказал ей все, что она сделала.
40 So when those people of Samaria came to Jesus, they urged him to stay with them. So we stayed there two days.
И потому, когда пришли к Нему Самаряне, то просили Его побыть у них; и Он пробыл там два дня.
41 Many more of those people believed ([in Jesus/that he was the Messiah]) because of what he said.
И еще большее число уверовали по Его слову.
42 They told the woman, “We believe in Jesus [now], but not [just] because of what you told us. Now we have heard him ourselves. And now we know that this man truly is the one who [can] save [people] [MTY] [from the guilt of their sins].”
А женщине той говорили: уже не по твоим речам веруем, ибо сами слышали и узнали, что Он истинно Спаситель мира, Христос.
43 Jesus had said [previously] that people did not honor prophets [like himself when they tried to teach people] in their own home area. So, two days later, Jesus and [we] disciples left that area and went to [his own area in] Galilee [district, because he knew that people there would not think very highly of him, and as a result the Jewish leaders would not be jealous].
По прошествии же двух дней Он вышел оттуда и пошел в Галилею,
ибо Сам Иисус свидетельствовал, что пророк не имеет чести в своем отечестве.
45 However, when we arrived in Galilee [district, many] of the people there welcomed him, because they had been in Jerusalem during the [Passover] celebration and had seen all the things he did there.
Когда пришел Он в Галилею, то Галилеяне приняли Его, видев все, что Он сделал в Иерусалиме в праздник, - ибо и они ходили на праздник.
46 Jesus went again to Cana in Galilee [district]. That was where he [previously] turned water into wine. There was one of the king’s officials who lived in Capernaum, whose son was very sick.
Итак Иисус опять пришел в Кану Галилейскую, где претворил воду в вино. В Капернауме был некоторый царедворец, у которого сын был болен.
47 When that man heard [others say] that Jesus had returned to Galilee [district] from Judea [district], he went to Jesus [in Cana] and pleaded with him, “Please come down [to Capernaum] and heal my son, who is about to die!”
Он, услышав, что Иисус пришел из Иудеи в Галилею, пришел к Нему и просил Его придти и исцелить сына его, который был при смерти.
48 Jesus said to him, “You people will believe my message only if you see me perform [more] miracles!”
Иисус сказал ему: вы не уверуете, если не увидите знамений и чудес.
49 But the official said to him, “Sir, ([I] believe [in you/I believe that you came from God]). [So please] come down [to my home] before my son dies!”
Царедворец говорит Ему: Господи! приди, пока не умер сын мой.
50 Jesus said to him, “Then you may go [home]. Your son (will live/not die)!” The man believed what Jesus said, and left.
Иисус говорит ему: пойди, сын твой здоров. Он поверил слову, которое сказал ему Иисус, и пошел.
51 [The next day] while he was on the way home, his servants met him. They told him, “Your child is going to live!”
На дороге встретили его слуги его и сказали: сын твой здоров.
52 He asked them, “At what time did my son start to become well?” They said to him, “His fever ceased yesterday [afternoon] at one o’clock.”
Он спросил у них: в котором часу стало ему легче? Ему сказали: вчера в седьмом часу горячка оставила его.
53 Then the boy’s father realized that this was the time Jesus told him, “Your son will (live/not die).” So he and all the people in his house believed [that Jesus was the Messiah].
Из этого отец узнал, что это был тот час, в который Иисус сказал ему: сын твой здоров, и уверовал сам и весь дом его.
54 That was the second miracle that Jesus performed in Galilee [district], after he had returned from Judea [district].
Это второе чудо сотворил Иисус, возвратившись из Иудеи в Галилею.
