John 8
1 But Jesus went [with us disciples] to Olive [Tree] Hill [and we stayed near there that night].
Иисус же пошел на гору Елеонскую.
2 Early the next morning, we returned to the Temple [courtyard]. Many people gathered around Jesus, so he sat down to teach them.
А утром опять пришел в храм, и весь народ шел к Нему. Он сел и учил их.
3 Then men who taught the [Jewish] laws and some of [SYN] the Pharisee [religious group] brought a woman to him. She was seized {[They] had [arranged to] seize her} while she was having sex with a man who was not her husband. They made her stand up in front of the group [that was listening to Jesus].
Тут книжники и фарисеи привели к Нему женщину, взятую в прелюбодеянии, и, поставив ее посреди,
4 Then they said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was seized {[we] seized this woman} while she was having sex with a man who is not her husband.
сказали Ему: Учитель! эта женщина взята в прелюбодеянии;
5 Moses commanded us in the laws that [he gave us] that we should throw stones at such women [and kill them]. So what do you say [we should do]?”
а Моисей в законе заповедал нам побивать таких камнями: Ты что скажешь?
6 They asked this question as a trap so that they could accuse him. [If he said that they should not kill her, they would shame him for disobeying the law of Moses. If he said that they should kill her, they could accuse him to the Roman governor]. But Jesus bent down and wrote something on the ground with his finger.
Говорили же это, искушая Его, чтобы найти что-нибудь к обвинению Его. Но Иисус, наклонившись низко, писал перстом на земле, не обращая на них внимания.
7 While they continued to question him, he stood up and said to them, “Whichever one of you has never sinned can be the first one to start throwing stones at her.”
Когда же продолжали спрашивать Его, Он, восклонившись, сказал им: кто из вас без греха, первый брось на нее камень.
8 Then he stooped down and wrote [some more] on the ground.
И опять, наклонившись низко, писал на земле.
9 After they heard what he said, those [who were questioning him] went away, one by one, the older ones first [and then the younger ones, knowing they were all sinners]. Finally only Jesus was there, along with the woman.
Они же, услышав то и будучи обличаемы совестью, стали уходить один за другим, начиная от старших до последних; и остался один Иисус и женщина, стоящая посреди.
10 Jesus stood up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one said you must die for your sin?”
Иисус, восклонившись и не видя никого, кроме женщины, сказал ей: женщина! где твои обвинители? никто не осудил тебя?
11 She said, “No, sir, no one.” Then Jesus said, “I do not condemn you either. Go [home] now, and do not continue your sinful [life] any longer!”]
Она отвечала: никто, Господи. Иисус сказал ей: и Я не осуждаю тебя; иди и впредь не греши.
12 Jesus spoke to the people again. He said, “I am [like] a light [MET] for [all the people in] [MTY] the world. [Just like a light reveals what has been in the darkness] [MET], [I reveal God’s truth to them]. Those who walk in the darkness [are unaware of what is around them]. But those who become my disciples will always be aware [of God’s truth] [MET]. They will have my light [which shows them how to have eternal] life.”
Опять говорил Иисус к народу и сказал им: Я свет миру; кто последует за Мною, тот не будет ходить во тьме, но будет иметь свет жизни.
13 So the Pharisees said to him, “You are just telling about yourself! [Since there is no one else to verify these things that you say about yourself], [we] do not [need to accept that] what you say is true.”
Тогда фарисеи сказали Ему: Ты Сам о Себе свидетельствуешь, свидетельство Твое не истинно.
14 Jesus replied, “Even if I were the [only one to] say these things about myself, what I say is true, because I know that I came from [heaven], and I know that I am going [back to heaven]. But you do not know where I came from or where I am going.
Иисус сказал им в ответ: если Я и Сам о Себе свидетельствую, свидетельство Мое истинно; потому что Я знаю, откуда пришел и куда иду; а вы не знаете, откуда Я и куда иду.
15 You judge people according to human standards. [The reason] that I am [here is] not (to condemn people/to say that I will punish people) [for their sins].
Вы судите по плоти; Я не сужу никого.
16 But if I did judge [people], what I decided would be correct, because I am not the [only] one [who will decide those things]. I and the one who sent me will both decide.
А если и сужу Я, то суд Мой истинен, потому что Я не один, но Я и Отец, пославший Меня.
17 It is written {[Moses] wrote} in your law that if [at least] two people testify that [some event has happened], [people should consider] that what they say is true.
А и в законе вашем написано, что двух человек свидетельство истинно.
18 I am telling you about myself, and the other one who is telling you about me is [my] Father who sent me. [So you should believe that what we declare is true].”
Я Сам свидетельствую о Себе, и свидетельствует о Мне Отец, пославший Меня.
19 Then they asked him, “[If you have a] father whom [we can question about you], where is he?” Jesus replied, “You do not know [who] I [really am]. If you knew who I [really am], you would know who my Father is also.”
Тогда сказали Ему: где Твой Отец? Иисус отвечал: вы не знаете ни Меня, ни Отца Моего; если бы вы знали Меня, то знали бы и Отца Моего.
20 He said these things when he was in the Temple [courtyard], near the place where the people put their offerings. [This was also very close to the place where the Jewish council met]. But no one seized him to arrest him, because it was not yet time [MTY] [for him to suffer and die].
Сии слова говорил Иисус у сокровищницы, когда учил в храме; и никто не взял Его, потому что еще не пришел час Его.
21 Jesus also said to them, “I [will soon be] going away. Then [at the end of your life] you will seek me, but you will die [without God forgiving] your sins. Where I will go, you will not be able to come.”
Опять сказал им Иисус: Я отхожу, и будете искать Меня, и умрете во грехе вашем. Куда Я иду, туда вы не можете придти.
22 So the Jewish [leaders] said among themselves, “Is he going to kill himself? Is that the reason that he said, ‘Where I go, you will not be able to come’?”
Тут Иудеи говорили: неужели Он убьет Сам Себя, что говорит: “куда Я иду, вы не можете придти”?
23 But Jesus continued by saying to them, “You were born here in this world, but I came from heaven. You belong to those who are opposed to God [MTY]. I do not belong to them.
Он сказал им: вы от нижних, Я от вышних; вы от мира сего, Я не от сего мира.
24 I told you that you will die [without God forgiving] your sins. If you do not believe that I am [who I say that I am], you will die [without God forgiving] your sins.”
Потому Я и сказал вам, что вы умрете во грехах ваших; ибо если не уверуете, что это Я, то умрете во грехах ваших.
25 So they said to him, “You! Who do you think you are?” Jesus said to them, “Ever since I began [teaching], I have been telling you who I am!
Тогда сказали Ему: кто же Ты? Иисус сказал им: от начала Сущий, как и говорю вам.
26 I could judge you and say that [you are guilty of] many things. But instead, [I will say only] what the one who sent me tells me to say. [What he says] is true, and I tell the people in the world [MTY] what I have heard from him.”
Много имею говорить и судить о вас; но Пославший Меня есть истинен, и что Я слышал от Него, то и говорю миру.
27 They did not understand that he was talking about his Father [in heaven].
Не поняли, что Он говорил им об Отце.
28 So Jesus said, “I am the one who came down from heaven, but when you lift me up [on a cross to kill me], you will know who I am. You will also know that I do not do anything with my own [authority]. Instead, I say just what [my] Father has taught me.
Итак Иисус сказал им: когда вознесете Сына Человеческого, тогда узнаете, что это Я и что ничего не делаю от Себя, но как научил Меня Отец Мой, так и говорю.
29 He is the one who sent me, and he helps me. Because I always do the things that please him, he has never abandoned me.”
Пославший Меня есть со Мною; Отец не оставил Меня одного, ибо Я всегда делаю то, что Ему угодно.
30 As Jesus was saying these things, many people believed that he [was] ([from God/the Messiah]).
Когда Он говорил это, многие уверовали в Него.
31 Then Jesus said to the Jews who now said they believed in him, “If you continue to [live in accordance with] my message, you will truly be my disciples.
Тогда сказал Иисус к уверовавшим в Него Иудеям: если пребудете в слове Моем, то вы истинно Мои ученики,
32 Then you will know [God’s] truth, and as a result of [your believing his] truth, he [PRS] will free you [from being controlled by the one who has made you his slaves].”
и познаете истину, и истина сделает вас свободными.
33 They replied to him, “We are descendants of Abraham. We have never been anyone’s slaves. So why do you say [we will] be freed [from being someone’s slaves]?”
Ему отвечали: мы семя Авраамово и не были рабами никому никогда; как же Ты говоришь: сделаетесь свободными?
34 Jesus replied, “Listen carefully to what I am going to tell you. All those who continue to sin are [forced to obey] their sinful desires [MET], [just like] a slave [is forced to obey his master].
Иисус отвечал им: истинно, истинно говорю вам: всякий, делающий грех, есть раб греха.
35 A slave is not a permanent member of a family. But a son is a member of a family forever. [Similarly, you say you are members of God’s family because you are descendants of Abraham, but really, because you are like slaves of your sinful desires, you are no longer permanent members of God’s family]. (aiōn g165)
Но раб не пребывает в доме вечно; сын пребывает вечно. (aiōn g165)
36 So if you allow me to free you, you will truly be free.
Итак, если Сын освободит вас, то истинно свободны будете.
37 I know that you are Abraham’s descendants. But you are trying to kill me because [you are not] allowing [PRS] my message to continue [to change] your inner being.
Знаю, что вы семя Авраамово; однако ищете убить Меня, потому что слово Мое не вмещается в вас.
38 I am telling you what I saw when I was with [my] Father. But you do the things that you have heard from your father.”
Я говорю то, что видел у Отца Моего; а вы делаете то, что видели у отца вашего.
39 They replied to him, “Abraham is our ancestor.” Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s descendants, [your character would be like Abraham’s character, and] you would do [good] things like Abraham did.
Сказали Ему в ответ: отец наш есть Авраам. Иисус сказал им: если бы вы были дети Авраама, то дела Авраамовы делали бы.
40 I have been telling you the truth that I heard from God, but you are trying to kill me. Abraham did not do things like that.
А теперь ищете убить Меня, Человека, сказавшего вам истину, которую слышал от Бога: Авраам этого не делал.
41 No! You are doing the things that your [real] father does.” They said to him, “[We do not know about you, but] we are not illegitimate children. And [spiritually], we have only one Father. That is God, and you do not know who your father is!”
Вы делаете дела отца вашего. На это сказали Ему: мы не от любодеяния рождены; одного Отца имеем, Бога.
42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your father, you would love me, because I came from God, and now I have come here [to this world]. My coming was not (because I [appointed] myself/with my own [authority]). He sent me.
Иисус сказал им: если бы Бог был Отец ваш, то вы любили бы Меня, потому что Я от Бога исшел и пришел; ибо Я не Сам от Себя пришел, но Он послал Меня.
43 (And I will tell you why you do not understand what I say./Do you know why you do not understand what I say?) [RHQ] It is because you do not want to accept my message.
Почему вы не понимаете речи Моей? Потому что не можете слышать слова Моего.
44 You belong to your father, (the devil/Satan), and you desire to do what he wants. He has [caused people to become] murderers from the time when [people] first [sinned]. He has abandoned [God’s] truth because he is a liar by his nature. Whenever he lies, he is speaking according to his [nature], because he is a liar and is the one who originates [MET] all lies.
Ваш отец диавол; и вы хотите исполнять похоти отца вашего. Он был человекоубийца от начала и не устоял в истине, ибо нет в нем истины. Когда говорит он ложь, говорит свое, ибо он лжец и отец лжи.
45 But because I tell you the truth, you do not believe me!
А как Я истину говорю, то не верите Мне.
46 [Since I have never sinned], (none of you can show that I have sinned./can anyone among you show that I have sinned?) [RHQ] So, since I tell you the truth, (there is no good reason for your not believing me!/why is it that you do not believe me?) [RHQ]
Кто из вас обличит Меня в неправде? Если же Я говорю истину, почему вы не верите Мне?
47 Those who belong to God habitually obey God’s message. You do not belong to God, so you do not obey his message.”
Кто от Бога, тот слушает слова Божии. Вы потому не слушаете, что вы не от Бога.
48 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied to him, “(We are certainly right by saying that you [believe what is false as] the Samaritans [do]!/Are we not right by saying that you [believe what is false as] the Samaritans [do]?) [RHQ] And that (a demon/an evil spirit) [controls] you!”
На это Иудеи отвечали и сказали Ему: не правду ли мы говорим, что Ты Самарянин и что бес в Тебе?
49 Jesus replied, “A demon does not [control] me! I honor my Father, and you do not honor me!
Иисус отвечал: во Мне беса нет; но Я чту Отца Моего, а вы бесчестите Меня.
50 I am not trying to honor myself. There is someone else who desires [to honor me], and he is the one who will judge [whether it is I who am telling the truth or whether it is you who are telling the truth].
Впрочем Я не ищу Моей славы: есть Ищущий и Судящий.
Истинно, истинно говорю вам: кто соблюдет слово Мое, тот не увидит смерти вовек. (aiōn g165)
52 Then the Jewish [leaders] [SYN], [thinking that he was talking about ordinary death and not about spiritual death], said to him, “Now we are sure that a demon [controls] you! Abraham and the prophets died [long ago]! But you say that anyone who obeys what you teach will never die! (aiōn g165)
Иудеи сказали Ему: теперь узнали мы, что бес в Тебе. Авраам умер и пророки, а Ты говоришь: кто соблюдет слово Мое, тот не вкусит смерти вовек. (aiōn g165)
53 (You are certainly not greater than our ancestor Abraham!/Do you think you are greater than our ancestor Abraham?) [RHQ] He died, and all the prophets died, so who do you think you are [by saying something like that]?”
Неужели Ты больше отца нашего Авраама, который умер? и пророки умерли: чем Ты Себя делаешь?
54 Jesus replied, “If I were honoring myself, that would be worthless. My Father is the one who you say is your God. He is the one who honors me.
Иисус отвечал: если Я Сам Себя славлю, то слава Моя ничто. Меня прославляет Отец Мой, о Котором вы говорите, что Он Бог ваш.
55 Although you do not know him, I know him [and have a close relationship with him]. If I said that I did not know him, I would be a liar like you are. But I know him, and I obey what he says.
И вы не познали Его, а Я знаю Его; и если скажу, что не знаю Его, то буду подобный вам лжец. Но Я знаю Его и соблюдаю слово Его.
56 Your ancestor Abraham was happy when he thought about what I would [do during] my life [MTY]. [It was as though] he saw that, and was happy.”
Авраам, отец ваш, рад был увидеть день Мой; и увидел и возрадовался.
57 Then the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said to him, “You are not 50 years old yet! So (you certainly did not see him!/how could you have seen him?) [RHQ] [Because he died long ago]!”
На это сказали Ему Иудеи: Тебе нет еще пятидесяти лет, - и Ты видел Авраама?
58 Jesus said to them, “The truth is that I existed before Abraham was born!”
Иисус сказал им: истинно, истинно говорю вам: прежде нежели был Авраам, Я есмь.
59 So, [because they were very angry about Jesus thus saying that he] ([had eternally existed/was equal with God]), they picked up stones to throw at him [to kill him]. But [Jesus] caused them not to be able to see him, and he left the Temple courtyard.
Тогда взяли каменья, чтобы бросить на Него; но Иисус скрылся и вышел из храма, пройдя посреди них, и пошел далее.
