Luke 10
1 After that, the Lord Jesus appointed 72 other [people]. He [prepared to] send them out, two-by-two, to every town and village where he [SYN] intended to go.
Daarna stelde de Heer nog twee en zeventig anderen aan, en zond ze twee aan twee voor Zich uit naar elke stad of plaats, waar Hij zelf naar toe wilde gaan.
2 He said to them, “The [people who are ready to receive my message] are like a field [of] [MET] [grain] that is ready for [people] to harvest {to be harvested}. But there are not many people [to bring them to God]. So pray and ask the Lord [God] to send [more] workers [who will gather people together and teach them my message, just like a landowner sends workers] into his fields [to gather the] harvest.
En Hij sprak tot hen: De oogst is groot, maar werklieden zijn er weinig. Vraagt dus den Heer van de oogst, dat Hij werklieden zendt in zijn oogst. —
3 Start going; but [remember that] I am sending you [(pl)] out [to tell my message to people who will try to get rid of you. You will be] like lambs among wolves.
Gaat heen; zie, Ik zend u als lammeren midden onder de wolven.
4 Do not take along [any money in] a purse. Do not take a traveler’s bag. Do not take [extra] sandals. Do not [spend a lot of time] greeting people along the way.
Draagt geen beurs mee, geen reiszak, geen schoenen; en groet niemand onderweg. —
5 Whenever you enter a house [to lodge there], first say to those people, ‘May [God give inner] peace to [you people] [MTY] [in] this house!’
Wanneer gij een huis binnenkomt, zegt dan eerst: Vrede aan dit huis!
6 If people who [live] there [are (desiring to have]/worthy of receiving) [God’s] peace, they will experience the [inner] peace that you are [offering them]. If people who [live] there [are not desiring to have God’s] peace, you [will experience God’s inner] peace, [but they will not].
En als daar een kind van de vrede woont, zal uw vrede op hem rusten; zo niet, dan keert hij terug op u.
7 [If they welcome you], stay in that same house [until you leave that village]. Do not move around from one house to another. Eat and drink whatever they provide for you. A worker deserves to get pay [MET] [from the people for whom he works, so you deserve to receive food and a place to stay from the people to whom you go].
Blijft in dat huis; eet en drinkt wat men er heeft; want de arbeider heeft recht op zijn loon. Gaat niet van het ene huis naar het andere. —
8 Whenever you enter a town and the people [there] welcome you, eat what is provided {what [they] provide} for you.
En in welke stad gij ook komt, waar men u ontvangt, eet wat u wordt voorgezet;
9 Heal the people there who are sick. Tell them, ‘It is almost [time for] God to send his king to rule [MET] [your lives].’
geneest de zieken die er zijn, en zegt hun: Het koninkrijk Gods is nabij.
10 But if you enter a town whose [people] do not welcome you, go into its [main] streets and say,
Maar als gij in een stad komt, waar men u niet ontvangt, gaat uit op haar pleinen, en zegt:
11 ‘[Because you have refused to hear our message, we(exc) will not only leave], we will also shake off the dust of your town that clings to our sandals, to warn you [that God will reject/punish you]. But [we want you to know that] it is almost [the time when] God will start to rule!’
Zelfs het stof uwer stad, dat aan onze voeten kleeft, schudden we tegen u af; toch moet gij weten: het koninkrijk Gods is nabij.
12 I will tell you this: On the [MTY] [final] day when [God judges everyone], he will punish the wicked people [MTY] who long ago lived in Sodom, [the city that he destroyed because its people were so wicked]. But he will punish [even] more severely the people [MTY] of any town [whose people refused to hear your message]!”
Ik zeg u: Voor Sódoma zal het dragelijker zijn op die dag dan voor die stad. —
13 “There will be terrible [punishment] for [you people who live in] [MTY] Chorazin and Bethsaida [cities]. I did great miracles in your cities [to show God’s power, but you did not turn from your sinful behavior]. If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in Tyre and Sidon [cities], the wicked people who lived there would have long ago [shown that they were sorry for their sins by] sitting on the ground wearing coarse cloth and putting ashes on their heads.
Wee u, Korazin, wee u, Betsáida; want zo in Tyrus en Sidon de wonderen waren gebeurd, die in u zijn geschied, dan zouden ze reeds lang in zak en as zijn gezeten, en boete hebben gedaan.
14 [But they did not have the opportunity that you have, so when God punishes people, he will punish the wicked people who lived in] Tyre and Sidon, but he will punish you more severely [because you did not pay attention to my message].
Voor Tyrus en Sidon zal het dragelijker zijn in het oordeel dan voor u.
15 [I also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city]. (Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary], [after you die, God] will send you down to the place where [sinful people] will be punished [forever]!” (Hadēs g86)
En gij Kafárnaum, zult ge tot de hemel toe worden verheven? Tot in de hel zult ge neerzinken. — (Hadēs g86)
16 [Jesus also said to the disciples, “God will consider that] those who listen to your [message] are listening to me, and that those who reject your [message] are rejecting me. And [he will consider that] those who reject me are rejecting [God], the one who sent me.”
Wie u hoort, hoort Mij, en wie u versmaadt, versmaadt Mij; maar wie Mij versmaadt, versmaadt Hem die Mij heeft gezonden.
17 The 72 [people whom Jesus appointed went and did as he told them to]. When they returned, they were very joyful. They said, “Lord, [people did what we(exc) told them to do]! Demons also obeyed us when by your [(sg)] authority [MTY] [we commanded them to leave people]!”
Toen de twee en zeventig waren teruggekeerd, zeiden ze verheugd: Heer, zelfs de duivels zijn ons onderworpen in uw Naam.
18 Jesus replied, “[When those demons were obeying you, because God had enabled you to defeat them, it was as though] [MET] I saw Satan fall from heaven [as suddenly and quickly] as lightning [strikes].
Hij sprak tot hen: Ik zag satan als een bliksemstraal uit de hemel vallen.
19 Listen! I have given you authority so that if you oppose evil spirits [MET] [they will not hurt you]. I have given you authority to defeat our enemy, [Satan]. Nothing shall hurt you.
Zie, Ik heb u de macht gegeven, om op slangen en schorpioenen te trappen, en macht over heel de kracht van den vijand: niets zal u deren.
20 But [although] you can rejoice that evil spirits obey you, you should rejoice [more] that your names have been written {that [God] has written your names} in heaven, [because you will be with God forever].”
Maar verheugt u niet, omdat de duivels u onderworpen zijn; verheugt u, omdat uw namen opgeschreven staan in de hemel.
21 At that time the Holy Spirit caused [Jesus] to be very happy. He said, “Father, you [(sg)] rule over [everything in] heaven and [on] the earth! Some [people think that they are] wise [because] they are well-educated. But I thank you that you have prevented them from [knowing] these things. [Instead], you have revealed them to [people who accept your truth as readily] [MET] [as] little children [do]. Yes, Father, [you have done that] because it seemed good to you [to do] so.”
Toen jubelde Hij het uit in den Heiligen Geest, en sprak: Ik dank U, Vader, Heer van hemel en aarde, omdat Gij deze dingen voor wijzen en verstandigen hebt verborgen, en aan kleinen geopenbaard. Ja, Vader, zó is uw welbehagen geweest.
22 [Jesus also said to the 72 disciples], “[God], my Father, has revealed to me all [I need to know and the power I need for my work]. Only my Father knows who I [really] am. Furthermore, only I and those [people] to whom I wish to reveal him know what [God] my Father is [like].”
Alles is Mij door mijn Vader in handen gegeven; en niemand weet, wie de Zoon is, dan de Vader alleen; of wie de Vader is, dan de Zoon alleen, en hij, wien de Zoon het openbaren wil.
23 Then when Jesus’ disciples were alone with him, he turned toward them and said, “[God] is pleased with you [SYN] who have seen [the things that I have done]!
Nu wendde Hij Zich tot zijn leerlingen alleen, en sprak: Zalig de ogen, die zien wat gij ziet.
24 I want you to know that many prophets and kings [who lived long ago] desired to see the things that you are seeing [me do], but these things did not [happen] then. They longed to hear the things that you have been hearing [me say], but these things were not [revealed to them] then.”
Ik zeg u: Vele profeten en koningen wensten te zien wat gij ziet, en ze zagen het niet; te horen wat gij hoort, en ze hoorden het niet.
25 [One day as Jesus was teaching people], a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that [God gave Moses]. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live [with God] forever?” (aiōnios g166)
En zie, een wetgeleerde stond op, om Hem op de proef te stellen, en sprak: Meester, wat moet ik doen, om het eeuwige leven te verkrijgen? (aiōnios g166)
26 Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] have read [RHQ] what [Moses] has written in the laws that [God gave him]. What did Moses write about living forever?”
Hij zei hem: Wat staat er in de Wet geschreven; wat leest ge daar?
27 The man replied, “[He wrote that] we [(inc)] must love the Lord our God. [We must show that] by what we feel and by what we do and by what we think. [He] also [wrote that we must love] people that we come in contact with as much as [we love] ourselves.”
Hij antwoordde: Gij zult den Heer uw God beminnen met heel uw hart, met heel uw ziel, met heel uw kracht, en met heel uw verstand: en uw naaste als uzelf.
28 Jesus replied, “You [(sg)] have answered [your question] correctly. If you do all that [continually], you will live [with God forever].”
Hij zei hem: Ge hebt goed geantwoord; doe dit en ge zult leven.
29 But the man wanted to defend [the way] he [acted toward people that he came in contact with] (OR, to defend why he [had asked a question that Jesus answered so simply]). So he said to Jesus, “Which people that I come in contact with [should I love]?”
Maar daar hij de schijn wilde redden, sprak hij tot Jesus: En wie is mijn naaste?
30 Jesus replied [by telling him this illustration]: “A [Jewish] man was once going down along the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Bandits attacked him. They took away [most of] the man’s clothes [and everything else that he had], and they beat him until he was almost dead. Then they left him.
Jesus hernam, en sprak: Eens reisde een man van Jerusalem naar Jericho, en viel in handen van rovers; ze schudden hem uit, verwondden hem vreselijk, en lieten hem half dood achter.
31 It happened that a [Jewish] priest was going along that road. When he saw that man, [instead of helping him], he passed by on the other side [of the road].
Toevallig kwam een priester die weg langs; hij zag hem, en ging voorbij.
32 Similarly, a man who worked in the temple [in Jerusalem] came to that place and saw the man. But he also passed by on the other side [of the road].
Ook een leviet kwam er langs; hij zag hem, en ging voorbij.
33 Then a man from Samaria [province] came along that road to where the man was lying. [People from Samaria despise Jews. But] when he saw that man, he pitied him.
Maar ook een Samaritaan, die op reis was, kwam voorbij; hij zag hem, en kreeg medelijden.
34 He went over to him and put some [olive] oil and wine on his wounds [to help heal them]. He wound strips of cloth [around the wounds]. He placed the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn and took care of him.
Hij ging er naar toe, verbond zijn wonden, en goot er olie en wijn op; daarna hief hij hem op zijn eigen lastdier, bracht hem naar een herberg, en zorgde voor hem.
35 The next morning he gave two silver coins to the innkeeper and said, ‘Take care of this man. If you [(sg)] spend more than this amount [to care for him], I will pay you back when I return.’”
De volgende dag nam hij twee tienlingen, gaf ze den waard, en zeide: Blijf voor hem zorgen; en wat ge er meer aan besteedt, zal ik u bij mijn terugkomst vergoeden.
36 Then Jesus said, “Three people [saw] the man whom bandits attacked. Which one of them [acted in a loving way toward] that man?”
Wat dunkt u; wie van de drie is de naaste geweest van hem, die in de handen der rovers viel?
37 The man who studied the Scriptures replied, “The one who acted mercifully toward him.” Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] go and act like that [toward] everyone whom [you can help]!”
Hij sprak: Hij, die hem barmhartigheid bewees. En Jesus zeide hem: Ga, en doe gij evenzo.
38 As Jesus and his disciples continued to travel, they entered a village [near Jerusalem]. A woman whose name was Martha invited them to come to her house.
Op hun reis kwam Hij ook in zeker dorp, waar een vrouw, Marta geheten, Hem in haar huis ontving.
39 Her [younger] sister, whose name was Mary, sat near Jesus. She was listening to what he was teaching.
Ze had een zuster, Maria genaamd, die mede aan Jesus’ voeten zat, en luisterde naar zijn woord.
40 But Martha was very much concerned about preparing [a meal]. She went to Jesus and said, “Lord, (you do not seem to care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself!/do you not care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself?) [RHQ] Tell her that she should help me!”
Maar Marta was druk in de weer met bedienen. Ze kwam er een ogenblik bij staan, en sprak: Heer, is het U onverschillig, dat mijn zuster mij alleen laat bedienen? Zeg haar dus, dat ze me helpt.
41 But the Lord replied, “Martha, Martha, you [(sg)] are very worried about many things.
Maar de Heer gaf haar ten antwoord: Marta, Marta, over veel zijt ge bezorgd en bekommerd.
42 But only one thing is truly necessary, and that is, [to listen to what I am teaching]. Mary has decided to [do that], and that is better [than worrying]. [The blessing that she is receiving from listening to me] will not be taken away from her {No one will take away from her [the blessing that she is receiving from listening to me]}.”
Slechts één ding is noodzakelijk. Maria heeft het beste deel gekozen, dat haar niet zal ontnomen worden.
