Luke 11
1 One day Jesus was somewhere praying. When he finished [praying], one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us [what to say when] we [(exc)] pray, as John [the Baptizer] taught his disciples!”
Suatu ketika, Yesus berdoa di tempat yang biasanya. Ketika Dia sudah selesai, bertanyalah salah seorang murid-Nya kepada-Nya, “Guru, ajarlah kami untuk berdoa, sama seperti Yohanes mengajarkan murid-muridnya untuk berdoa.”
2 He said to them, “When you pray, say [things like this]: ‘Father, we want you [(sg)] [MTY] to be honored/revered. [We want people to let you(sg)] [MTY, MET] rule over their lives.
Kata Yesus kepada mereka, “Ketika kalian berdoa, katakanlah, ‘Bapa, biarlah nama-Mu dihormati sebab nama-Mu kudus. Datanglah kerajaan-Mu.
3 Give us [(exc)] each day the food [SYN] that we need.
Berilah kami makanan yang kami butuhkan setiap hari.
4 Forgive us [for] the wrong things that we have done, because we forgive people for the wrong things that they do to us. Do not let us do wrong things when we are tempted {[someone or something] tempts us}.’”
Ampunilah dosa-dosa kami, seperti kami mengampuni orang-orang yang berdosa kepada kami. Jauhkan kami dari pencobaan.’”
5 Then he said to them, “Suppose that one of you goes to the house of a friend at midnight. Suppose that you [(sg) stand outside and] call out to him, ‘My friend, please lend me three buns!
Yesus menjelaskan kepada mereka, “Seandainya kalian harus pergi ke tempat teman kalian pada tengah malam hari dan minta kepadanya, ‘Kawan, tolong pinjamkan tiga bongkah roti kepada saya
6 Another friend of mine who is traveling has just arrived [at my house], but I have no food [ready] to give to him!’
sebab seorang kawanku datang mengunjungi rumahku, dan saya tidak punya makanan untuk diberikan kepadanya.’
7 Suppose that he answers you from inside [his house], ‘Do not bother me! The door has been locked {[We(exc)] have locked the door} and all my family are in bed. [So] I cannot get up and give you [(sg)] anything!’
Kawan kalian mungkin akan menjawab dari dalam rumah, ‘Jangan ganggu saya — saya sudah mengunci pintu, dan saya serta anak-anakku sudah tidur. Aku tidak bisa bangun hanya untuk memberimu sesuatu.’
8 I will tell you that even if he does not [want to] get up and give you [any food], to avoid being ashamed [for not helping you] because you are his friend (OR, if without being ashamed you continue asking him to do that), he certainly will get up and give you whatever you need.
Aku katakan kepada kalian, sekalipun dia menolak untuk bangun dan memberikan sesuatu kepada kalian, sekalipun kalian adalah temannya, jika kalian memintanya terus menerus, kawan kalian akan bangun dan memberikan segala yang kamu butuhkan.
9 So I tell you this: Keep asking [God for what you need]. If you do that, [he] will give it to you [(pl)]. Confidently keep expecting [God to give you the things that you need], and [he] will give them to you [MET]. [It will be like] looking for what you need and finding it. Keep on [praying urgently to God. Then God will answer you. It will be like] knocking [on a door] so that [God] will open [the way] for you [to get what you pray for].
Aku katakan kepada kalian, mintalah, dan kamu akan menerima, carilah, maka kamu akan menemukan, ketuklah, maka pintu akan dibukakan untukmu.
10 Remember that [God] will give things to everyone who continues to ask [him for them]. [He] will give things to whoever confidently keeps asking. [He] will open [the way] for people [to get the things that they keep urgently praying for].
Sebab bagi mereka yang meminta, akan menerima, bagi mereka yang mencari, akan menemukan, dan bagi mereka yang mengetuk, pintu akan dibukakan.
11 If one of you had a son who asked you [(sg)] for a fish [to eat], (you [(sg)] certainly would not give him a [poisonous] snake instead!/would you give him a [poisonous] snake instead?) [RHQ]
Siapakah di antara kalian, hai para ayah, jika anak laki-laki kalian minta makan ikan, kalian malah memberinya seekor ular?
12 If he asked you for an egg, (you [(sg)] certainly would not give him a scorpion!/would you give him a scorpion?) [RHQ]
Atau jika dia minta sebutir telur, kalian memberinya seekor kalajengking?
13 Even though you people are evil, you know how to give good things to your children. So your Father in heaven will certainly [give good things] to those who ask him, [including] giving the Holy Spirit, [who is the best gift].”
Jadi jika kamu, sekalipun kamu jahat, masih tahu untuk memberikan pemberian yang baik untuk anak-anakmu, betapa lebih lagi Bapa di Surga memberikan Roh Kudus kepada mereka yang meminta kepada-Nya?”
14 [One day there was a man there who, because a demon controlled him] [MTY], was unable to speak. After [Jesus expelled] the demon, the man [began to] talk. [Most of] the people [there] were amazed.
Yesus mengusir setan yang membuat seseorang menjadi bisu. Ketika setan itu sudah pergi, orang bisu itu berbicara kembali, dan orang banyak menjadi kagum.
15 But some of them said, “It is Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons, who enables [this man] to expel demons!”
Tetapi beberapa dari mereka berkata, “Dia mengusir setan dengan kuasa Belzebul, penguasa setan.”
16 Other [people there] asked Jesus to perform a miracle [to prove (he was the Messiah/that he had come] from God) [MTY/EUP]. They wanted to trap him [into not being able to perform a miracle or into doing something ridiculous].
Yang lain mencoba menguji Yesus dengan meminta tanda ajaib dari surga.
17 But Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said to them, “If [the people in] one nation fight against each other, their nation will be destroyed {[they] will destroy their nation}. If [the people in] [MTY] one house are divided, they will cease to remain as one [family].
Yesus tahu pikiran mereka dan berkata, “Setiap kerajaan yang terpecah-pecah karena perang saudara pasti akan hancur. Sebuah keluarga yang saling melawan pasti akan runtuh.
18 [Similarly], if Satan [and his demons] were fighting against each other, (his rule over them would [certainly] not last!/how would his rule over them last?) [RHQ] [I say this] because you are saying that I am expelling demons by [the power of] the ruler of [his own demons]
Jika kerajaan setan terbagi-bagi dan saling melawan, bagaimana kerajaannya bisa bertahan? Kamu berkata bahwa Aku mengusir setan menggunakan kuasa Belzebul.
19 Furthermore, if [it is true that] Satan enables me to expel demons, [is it also true that] your disciples [who] expel demons [do so] by [Satan’s] power [RHQ]? [No, that is not true]. So they will show that you [are not thinking logically].
Tetapi jika Aku mengusir setan dengan kuasa Belzebul, dengan kuasa siapa pengikut kalian mengusir mereka? Pengikut kalian sendiri yang membuktikan bahwa kalian salah!
20 But because it is by the power [MTY] of God [that I expel demons], I am showing you [that the power of] God to [MET] rule [people’s lives] has come to you.”
Bagaimanapun, jika Aku mengusir setan dengan kuasa Allah, maka ini adalah bukti bahwa Kerajaan Allah sudah datang. Itu ada di sini di antara kalian!
21 Then, [to show that by expelling evil spirits he was making it clear that he was much more powerful than Satan, Jesus said] [MET], “When a strong man who has many weapons guards his own house, no one can steal the things in his house.
Ketika seorang yang kuat yang memiliki persenjataan lengkap menjada rumahnya, maka seluruh miliknya aman.
22 But when someone else who is stronger attacks that man and subdues him, he is able to take away the weapons in which the man trusted. Then he can take from that man’s house anything he [wants to].
Tetapi jika ada orang yang lebih kuat datang dan mengalahkan dia, mengambil semua persenjataan yang amat diandalkannya, makan orang itu akan bisa mengambil seluruh harta milik orang yang pertama.
23 [No one can be neutral]. Those who do not help me [are opposing] me, and those who do not gather [people to become] my [disciples] are causing [those people] to go away [from me].”
Siapapun yang tidak ada di pihak-Ku, berarti melawan Aku, dan siapapun yang tidak membangun bersama-Ku sedang menghancurkan semuanya.
24 [Then Jesus said this]: “[Sometimes when] an evil spirit leaves someone, it wanders around in desolate areas seeking [someone in whom it can] rest. If it does not find anyone, it says [to itself], ‘I will return to the person in whom I used to live!’
Ketika satu roh jahat meninggalkan seseorang, roh itu mengembara di daerah padang pasir mencari tempat untuk menetap. Ketika dia tidak menemukan tempat di manapun, maka berkatalah dia, ‘Aku akan kembali ke rumah yang dulu saya tinggalkan.’
25 So it goes back and finds that [the Spirit of God is not in control of that person’s life. The person’s life is like] a house that has been {that someone has} swept clean and everything put {put everything} in order, [but a house that is empty].
Ketika dia sampai, dilihatnya rumah itu bersih dan rapi.
26 Then [this evil spirit] goes and gets seven other spirits that are [even] more evil than it is. They [all] enter [that person] and [begin] living there. [So], [although] that person’s condition [was bad] before, it became much worse.”
Maka pergilah setan itu dan menemukan tujuh setan yang lebih jahat dari dirinya, dan masuklah mereka semua serta tinggal di sana. Pada akhirnya orang itu lebih buruk daripada keadaan dia yang sebelumnya.”
27 When Jesus said that, a woman who was listening called out [to him], “[God is] pleased with the woman who gave birth to you [(sg)] and let you nurse [at her breasts]!”
Ketika Yesus sedang berbicara, berserulah salah seorang wanita, “Diberkatilah rahim yang mengandung Engkau dan buah dada yang menyusui Engkau.”
28 But he replied, “God [is] much more pleased with those who hear his message and obey it!”
Tetapi Yesus berkata, “Diberkatilah mereka yang mendengar Firman Allah, dan melakukannya.”
29 When the group of people around [Jesus] got larger, he said, “[Many of] you people who have been observing my ministry are evil. You want [me to perform] a miracle [to prove that I have come from God], but the only miracle that [I] will perform for you is one [like happened to] Jonah.
Ketika orang-orang mengelilingi Dia, Yesus mulai berbicara kepada mereka, “Generasi yang jahat ini meminta tanja ajaib, tetapi mereka tidak akan mendapatkan tanda apapun kecuali tanda nabi Yunus.
30 [After Jonah was inside a huge fish for three days, God performed] a miracle [to restore] Jonah. [Jonah then went and testified about that] to the people in Nineveh [city. God will perform] a similar miracle [for me], the one who came from heaven. [When you people have seen that miracle, you will believe my message].
Dengan cara yang sama Yunus menjadi tanda bagi orang Niniwe, demikianlah Anak Manusia menjadi tanda bagi generasi ini.
31 [Long ago the] queen from [Sheba], [far] south [of Israel, traveled a long distance to hear Solomon speak many] wise things. But now [I, a man] who [is much] greater [and wiser] than Solomon, am here, [but you have not listened to what I have told you]. Therefore, at the time when [God] judges [all people], the queen from [Sheba] will stand there, [along] with you people, and will condemn you.
Ratu Selatan akan bangkit pada hari penghakiman bersama-sama dengan orang-orang dari generasi ini dan akan mendakwa mereka, sebab dia datang dari ujung bumi untuk mendengarkan kebijaksanaan Salomo, dan saat ini ada seseorang yang lebih besar dari pada Salomo di tempat ini!
32 The people who lived in Nineveh [city] turned from their sinful ways when Jonah preached to them. But now I, who am greater than Jonah, have come [and preached to you], [but you have not turned from your sinful ways]. Therefore, at the time when God judges [all people], the people who lived in Nineveh will stand there with you and condemn you.”
Penduduk Niniwe akan bangkit pada hari penghakiman bersama-sama dengan angkatan ini, dan akan mendakwa mereka, sebab mereka bertobat ketika mereka mendengar pesan Yunus, dan ada orang yang lebih besar dari pada Yunus saat ini di sini!
33 [Then, to show them that they did not need more miracles, but that they needed only to understand better what he had already told them, he said to them] [MET], “People who light a lamp do not then hide it, or put it under a basket. Instead, they put it on a lampstand so that those who enter [their house] can see [things from] its light. [Similarly, I have not concealed God’s truth. I have revealed it to you].
Tidak ada yang menyalakan lilin lalu menutupinya dengan mangkuk. Kalian akan menaruhnya di atas tempat lilin agar siapapun yang masuk ke dalam rumah bisa melihat cahayanya.
34 Your eyes [MET] are like a lamp for your body, because they enable you to see things. If your eyes are healthy, you are able to see everything well [MET]. [Similarly, if you(sg) accept my teaching, you will be able to know all that God wants you to know]. But if your eyes are bad, you are not able to see anything. It is like being in darkness [MET]. [And similarly, if you(pl) do not accept what I teach, you will not be able to know all the things that God wants you to know].
Mata adalah cahaya bagi tubuhmu. Jika matamu baik, seluruh tubuhmu akan penuh dengan cahaya. Tetapi ketika matamu buruk, tubuhmu juga penuh dengan kegelapan.
35 Therefore, [you(pl) do not need to see more miracles. You need to think carefully about what I have already] told you, so that the things that you have heard from others do not cause you to remain in spiritual darkness [MET].
Jadi pastikanlah cahaya yang kamu miliki benar-benar cahaya dan bukannya kegelapan.
36 If you [live completely according to God’s truth, you will be able to know everything that God wants you to know. It will be like] being in a room with a lamp shining brightly, enabling you to see everything clearly.”
Jadi jika seluruh tubuhmu penuh dengan kebaikan, tanpa adanya kejahatan, maka tubuhmu benar-benar membawa cahaya, seperti lampu yang memberimu terang.”
37 While Jesus finished saying those things, a Pharisee invited him to eat a meal with him. So Jesus went to [his house] and ate with him.
Sesudah Yesus selesai berbicara, seorang Farisi mengundang Dia untuk datang dan makan bersamanya. Maka Yesus pergi dan duduk untuk makan.
38 The Pharisee was surprised when he saw that Jesus did not follow the Pharisees’ ritual by washing his hands before eating. [The Pharisees washed their hands in a certain way to be cleansed from anything that might have contaminated them. They were afraid that God might reject them if they] had [touched something unacceptable to God].
Orang Farisi itu terkejut sebab Yesus tidak mencuci tangan-Nya sebelum makan.
39 The Lord [Jesus] said to him, “You Pharisees are [concerned about things that are outside your bodies, not with what is in your] ([inner beings/hearts]) [MET]. You wash the outside of cups and dishes [before you eat because you think that doing that will make you acceptable to God], but within yourselves you are very greedy and wicked.
Maka berkatalah Tuhan kepadanya, “Kalian orang Farisi hanya membersihkan bagian luar dari cangkir dan piring, tetapi bagian dalam kalian penuh dengan keserakahan dan kejahatan.
40 You foolish people! [God] is concerned about things that are outside [our bodies], but (he is certainly also concerned about our inner [beings]!/isn’t he also concerned about our hearts?) [RHQ]
Kalian orang-orang bodoh! Kalian pikir Pencipta bagian luar tidak menciptakan bagian dalam?!
41 Give [money] to those who are poor. [Give according to what you know within] your (inner [/heart]) [that you should give]. Then you [will be surprised to realize that] you will be acceptable [to God without having to perform all those rituals about washing].
Jika perbuatan baik kalian kepada orang lain adalah karena ketulusan hati kalian, maka segalanya akan menjadi bersih bagimu.
42 But there will be terrible punishment for you Pharisees! You give to God a tenth of [all you produce, even] the various herbs that you grow, but you do not [remember that you must act] justly [toward others] and love God! It is good to [give a tenth of your income to God], but you ought to do these other things also!
Malu pada kalian hai orang Farisi! Kalian membayar persembahan perpuluhan akan rempah-rempah dan tumbuhan, tetapi kalian mengabaikan keadilan dan kasih Allah. Kalian perlu memperhatikan yang terakhir, sementara tidak membiarkan hal-hal sebelumnya dibatalkan.
43 There will be terrible punishment for you Pharisees, because you like [to sit in] the best seats in our worship places [so that people will think highly of you], and you like people to greet you [respectfully] in the marketplaces.
Malu pada kalian hari roang Farisi! Kalian senang mendapatkan tempat duduk terbaik di sinagoga, dan disambut dengan hormat ketika kalian pergi ke pasar.
44 There will be terrible punishment for you, because you are like ground where there is no marker [to indicate that there is a] grave [underneath]. People walk there, but they cannot see [what is rotten down below] [MET]! [Similarly, people who see you do not realize how polluted you are within yourselves].”
Malu pada kalian! Kalian seperti kubur yang tidak ada tandanya, sehingga orang-orang yang lewat di atasnya tidak menyadarinya.”
45 One of those who taught the [Jewish] laws replied, “Teacher, by saying this you [(sg)] are criticizing us [also]!”
Salah seorang yang ahli dalam hukum Taurat berkata, “Guru, perkataanmu juga menghina kami!”
46 Jesus said, “It will be terrible also for you who teach the [Jewish] laws! You require people [to obey many rules that are difficult to obey] [MET]. [That is like making them] carry heavy burdens on their backs. But you yourselves do not obey the laws [that you require others to obey]. (OR, you do not do anything to help [others to obey the laws].)
Yesus menjawab, “Malu pada juga kalian para pengajar ahli Taurat! Kalian memberikan orang-orang peraturan yang sulit untuk dijalani dan tidak mau menolong mereka sedikitpun untuk menjalaninya.
47 There will be terrible punishment for you! You decorate the tombs of the prophets whom your ancestors killed, [but you do not live according to what the prophets taught].
Malu pada kalian! Kalian membangun kuburan-kuburan untuk menghormati para nabi, tetapi nenek moyang kalianlah yang membunuhi para nabi itu!
48 So you are declaring that you approve of what your ancestors did. They killed the prophets, and you [are not honoring the prophets! You just] decorate their tombs!
Dengan melakukan hal itu, kalian sendiri menjadi saksi bahwa kalian setuju dengan tindakan nenek moyang kalian. Mereka membunuhi para nabi dan kalian yang membangun kuburan bagi nabi-nabi itu!
49 So God, who is very wise [PRS], said, ‘I will send prophets and apostles [to you Jews]. [You] will kill some of them and cause some of them to suffer greatly.
Itu sebabnya dalam kebijaksanaan-Nya, Allah berkata, ‘Aku akan mengirimkan kepada mereka para nabi dan rasul; beberapa dari antara mereka akan mereka bunuh, dan yang lain akan mereka hukum mati.’
50 [As a result, I] will consider that many of you people [who have observed my Son’s ministry] will be guilty [MTY] [of murder, as if you had] killed all the prophets that other people have killed, from the time I created the world,
Sebagai akibatnya, generasi ini harus bertanggung jawab atas darah semua nabi yang tertumpah sejak awal dunia dijadikan,
51 starting from [Adam’s son Cain] killing [his brother] Abel and continuing until they killed the prophet Zechariah [in the holy place] between the altar and the temple.’ Yes, what I am saying [is true] [MTY]. [God] will punish you people who have observed my ministry, you people whom [he] considers to be guilty [MTY] for [killing] all those prophets!
mulai dari darah Habel sampai darah Zakaria yang dibunuh di antara mezbah dan ruang kudus. Ya, Aku katakan kepadamu sejujurnya, angkatan ini harus bertanggungjawab untuk semua itu.
52 There will be terrible punishment for you men who teach the [Jewish] laws, because you have [not let people] know [God’s truth] [MET]! [It is as though you are] taking away a key [to a house]. You are not going into [the house] yourselves, and you are not letting other people enter it, either.”
Malu pada juga kalian para pengajar ahli Taurat! Kalian telah menghilangkan kunci pengetahuan. Kalian tidak masuk ke dalamnya, dan kalian melarang orang untuk masuk juga.”
53 After Jesus finished saying those things, he left there. Then the men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the Pharisees began to act in a very hostile way toward him. They tried to make him say what he thought about many things.
Ketika Yesus meninggalkan mereka, para pengajar agama dan orang Farisi mulai menyerang dia dengan agresif, memberi pertanyaan-pertanyaan untuk mencobai Dia.
54 They kept waiting for him to say something [wrong] for which they could accuse him.
Mereka berusaha menjebak-Nya, mencoba agar Yesus mengatakan sesuatu yang bisa mereka gunakan untuk melawan Dia.
