Luke 19
1 Jesus and his disciples entered Jericho and were going through the [city].
Kemudian Yesus dan para murid-Nya memasuki Yeriko dan meneruskan perjalanan mereka melalui kota itu.
2 There was a man [there] named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, who was rich.
Di sana ada seorang kepala penagih pajak yang kaya raya, namanya Zakeus.
3 He tried to see Jesus, but he was very short, and there was a big crowd of people [near Jesus]. So he was not able to see him.
Dia ingin melihat siapa itu Yesus, tetapi tidak bisa karena terlalu banyak orang berkerumun di sekeliling-Nya, lagipula badan Zakeus pendek.
4 So he ran further ahead [along the road] that Jesus was walking on. He climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see Jesus.
Karena itu dia berlari mendahului orang banyak lalu memanjat pohon ara, supaya bisa melihat Yesus yang akan melewati jalan di bawah pohon itu.
5 When Jesus got there, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down quickly, because [God wants] me to go [with you(sg)] to your house and stay there [tonight]”!
Ketika Yesus sampai di situ, Dia melihat ke atas dan berkata kepadanya, “Zakeus, segeralah turun! Karena hari ini Allah mau supaya Aku menginap di rumahmu.”
6 So he came down quickly. [He took Jesus to his house] and welcomed him joyfully.
Zakeus cepat-cepat turun dari pohon itu dan dengan sukacita dia menyambut Yesus.
7 The people [who saw Jesus go there] grumbled saying, “He has gone to be the guest of a man who is a sinner!”
Ketika melihat kejadian itu, semua orang bersungut-sungut dengan berkata, “Ih! Dia akan menginap di rumah orang berdosa.”
8 Then Zacchaeus stood up [while they were eating] and said to the Lord [Jesus], “Lord, I want you [(sg)] to know that I am going to give half of what I own to poor people. And as for the people whom I have cheated, I will pay them back four times the amount [I have gotten from them by cheating].”
Tetapi Zakeus, setelah sampai di bawah, berkata kepada Yesus, “Ya Tuhan, separuh dari harta saya akan saya berikan kepada orang-orang miskin. Dan siapa pun yang pernah saya tipu pajaknya, akan saya kembalikan kepadanya empat kali lipat.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Today [God] has forgiven [PRS] [you and the other people in] [MTY] this house, because you [(sg)] also [have shown that you have trusted in God as] your ancestor Abraham [did].
Jawab Yesus, “Hari ini Allah bekerja untuk menyelamatkan kamu dan keluargamu. Sekarang nyatalah bahwa kamu juga keturunan Abraham!
10 Remember this: [I], the one who came from heaven, came to seek and save [people like you(sg)] who have [gone astray from God, just like a shepherd who searches for his] lost [sheep].”
Karena memang, Aku, Sang Anak Adam, diutus Allah untuk mencari dan menyelamatkan orang-orang yang tersesat.”
11 They were coming near to Jerusalem, and the people who were [going with Jesus] who heard him say these things thought that as soon as [he got to Jerusalem] he would become their king.
Rombongan Yesus sudah hampir sampai di kota tujuan mereka, karena Yerusalem dekat dengan Yeriko. Tetapi banyak orang menyangka bahwa waktu Yesus tiba di Yerusalem, Dia akan segera mendirikan kerajaan Allah dan negeri Israel akan bebas dari penjajahan Romawi. Oleh karena itu, Yesus menceritakan perumpamaan ini.
12 [So] he told them this parable: “A prince prepared to go to a distant country in order that [the Emperor] would make him a king. [He intended] to return later.
“Ada seorang bangsawan pergi jauh ke ibukota kerajaan untuk diangkat sebagai raja di wilayahnya. Sesudah itu dia akan kembali dan memerintah di daerahnya sendiri.
13 [Before he left], he summoned ten of his servants. He gave each of them a coin worth three months’ wages. He said to them, ‘Do business with these coins until I return!’ [Then he left].
Sebelum berangkat, dia memanggil sepuluh orang pegawainya dan memberikan satu uang logam emas besar kepada mereka masing-masing dengan berpesan, ‘Sementara aku pergi, pakailah uang itu sebagai modal kalian untuk berdagang.’
14 But [many of] his fellow-citizens hated him. So after he left they sent some messengers to tell [the Emperor], ‘We [(exc)] do not want this man to be our king!’
Tetapi penduduk di wilayahnya membenci bangsawan itu. Maka sesudah dia berangkat, mereka mengirim beberapa utusan ke ibukota, untuk menghadap raja tertinggi yang berencana mengangkat dia sebagai raja wilayah itu. Mereka menyampaikan, ‘Kami tidak mau orang ini menjadi raja atas kami.’
15 But [the Emperor] made him king anyway. [Later] the [new king] returned. Then he commanded that the servants to whom he had given the coins should be summoned {that someone should summon the servants to whom he had given the coins}. He wanted to know how much they had gained by doing business with the coins.
“Biarpun begitu, bangsawan itu tetap diangkat menjadi raja. Ketika dia kembali ke wilayahnya, dia menyuruh orang memanggil pegawai-pegawainya yang sudah menerima uang emas tadi, untuk mendengar laporan mereka masing-masing tentang keuntungan yang mereka dapat dari usaha dagang mereka.
16 The first man came [to him] and said, ‘Sir, with your one coin [I] have earned ten more [coins]!’
Pegawai yang pertama datang dan berkata, ‘Tuan Raja, saya memulai usaha dengan satu uang logam emas yang Tuan berikan. Sekarang saya sudah menghasilkan sepuluh kali lipat.’
17 He said to this man, ‘[You are a] good servant! [You have] done [very] well! Because you have [handled] faithfully a small amount [of money, I will give you] authority [to rule] ten cities.’
Raja itu berkata kepadanya, ‘Bagus! Kamu adalah pegawai yang baik! Karena dalam tanggung jawab yang kecil kamu bisa dipercaya, maka kamu saya angkat untuk memerintah atas sepuluh kota.’
18 Then the second servant came and said, ‘Sir, with your one coin [I] have earned five more [coins]!’
“Kemudian pegawai yang kedua datang dan berkata, ‘Tuan Raja, modal satu uang logam emas yang Tuan berikan itu sekarang sudah menjadi lima kali lipat.’
19 He said to that servant similarly, ‘[Good! I will give you authority to rule] five cities.’
Raja itu berkata juga kepadanya, ‘Kamu akan memerintah atas lima kota.’
20 Then another servant came. He said, ‘Sir, here is your coin. I wrapped it in a napkin and put it away, [so that nothing would happen to it].
“Lalu pegawai yang lain datang dan berkata, ‘Ya Raja, ini satu uang logam emas yang Tuan berikan itu. Saya menyimpannya dalam sehelai kain.
21 I did that [because] I was afraid [of what you would do to me if the business failed. I know] you are a man who does not do foolish things with your money. You [even] take [from others money] that does not really belong to you, [like a farmer who] harvests grain [from another man’s field] where he did not [even] do the planting.’
Saya takut kepada Tuanku Raja, karena Tuan adalah orang yang kejam yang mengambil banyak dari usaha orang lain. Contohnya, Tuan menuai di mana Tuan tidak pernah menanam, dan mengambil hasil di mana Tuan tidak pernah menabur.’
22 The king said to that servant, ‘You wicked servant! I will condemn you by the very words [MTY] that you [have just now spoken]. (You know that I do not [do foolish things with my money]./Did you not know that I do not [do foolish things with my money]?) [RHQ] [You said] that I [even] take [from others money] that does not really [belong to me], [like a farmer who] harvests grain [from another man’s field] where he did not [even] do the planting.
“Raja itu berkata kepadanya, ‘Hei pegawai yang tidak berguna! Saya akan mengadili kamu sesuai dengan yang kamu sendiri katakan. Kamu sudah tahu bahwa saya adalah orang yang “kejam” dan suka mengambil banyak dari usaha orang lain.
23 So (you should at least have given my money to money lenders!/why did you not [at least] give my money to bankers?) [RHQ] Then [when I returned] I could have collected that amount plus the interest [it would have earned]!’
Kalau begitu seharusnya kamu menabung uang saya itu di bank, supaya waktu saya kembali, saya mendapatkan uang itu ditambah dengan bunganya.’
24 Then [the king] said to those who were standing near, ‘Take the coin from him and give it to [the servant] who has ten coins!’
Lalu raja itu berkata kepada orang-orang yang berdiri di dekatnya, ‘Ambil uang itu dari dia dan berikan kepada pegawai saya yang menghasilkan sepuluh uang logam emas tadi.’
25 They protested, ‘But Sir, he already has ten [coins]!’
“Tetapi orang-orang itu menjawabnya, ‘Wah, Tuan jangan begitu! Orang itu sudah mempunyai sepuluh uang logam emas!’
26 [But the king said], ‘I tell you this: To the people who [use well what] they have [received], more will be given {[I] will give more}. But from the people who [do] not [use well what they have received], even what they [already] have will be taken away {[I] will take away even what they already have}.
“Jawab raja itu, ‘Saya katakan kepada kalian: Setiap orang yang setia mengusahakan apa yang diberikan Allah kepadanya akan diberi lebih banyak lagi. Tetapi setiap orang yang tidak setia mengusahakan apa yang diberikan kepadanya, maka apa yang masih ada padanya pun akan diambil.
27 Now, [as for] those enemies of mine who did not want me to rule over them, bring them here and execute them while I am watching!’”
Sekarang tentang orang-orang yang membenci saya dan tidak ingin saya menjadi raja: Bawalah mereka semua ke sini dan bunuh mereka di hadapan saya!’”
28 After [Jesus] said those things, he [continued on the road] up to Jerusalem, going ahead of his disciples.
Sesudah menyampaikan perumpamaan itu, Yesus berjalan di depan mereka dan meneruskan perjalanan menuju Yerusalem.
29 When they got near Bethphage and Bethany [villages], near the hill that is called {that they call} Olive [Tree] Hill,
Ketika mereka sudah mendekati desa Betfage dan Betania di sebuah bukit yang bernama Bukit Zaitun, Dia menyuruh dua orang murid-Nya,
30 he said to two of [his] disciples, “Go to the village just ahead [of you]. As you [two] enter [it], you will see a young animal that no one has ever ridden, that has been {someone has} tied up. Untie it and bring it [to me].
“Berangkatlah lebih dulu ke desa yang di depan itu. Begitu kalian masuk, kalian akan menemukan seekor keledai muda yang belum pernah ditunggangi sedang terikat di dekat rumah seseorang. Lepaskanlah ikatannya dan bawalah ke sini.
31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say [to him], ‘The Lord needs it.’”
Kalau ada orang yang bertanya, ‘Kenapa kalian melepaskannya?’ Jawablah, ‘Tuhan memerlukannya.’”
32 [So] the [two disciples] went [to the village] and found the [animal], just like he had told them.
Lalu kedua utusan itu pun pergi dan menemukan tepat seperti yang sudah dikatakan Yesus.
33 As they were untying it, its owners said to them, “Why are you two untying that young animal?”
Ketika mereka sedang melepaskan ikatan keledai itu, beberapa orang anggota keluarga pemiliknya bertanya kepada mereka, “Kenapa kalian melepaskan keledai kami?”
34 They replied, “The Lord needs it.” [So the owners said that they could take it].
Jawab mereka, “Tuhan memerlukannya.”
35 The [two disciples] brought [the animal] to Jesus. They threw their cloaks on the animal’s back [for him to sit on] and helped Jesus get on it.
Mereka berdua menuntunnya kepada Yesus, lalu mengalasi punggung keledai itu dengan jubah-jubah mereka dan membantu Yesus naik ke atasnya.
36 Then as he rode along, [others] spread their cloaks on the road [to honor him].
Orang banyak yang melihat Dia menunggangi keledai itu menuju Yerusalem menghamparkan jubah-jubah mereka di sepanjang jalan yang dilewati Yesus, sebagai penghormatan terhadap-Nya.
37 As they came near [to Jerusalem], on the road that descends from Olive [Tree] Hill, the whole crowd of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God loudly for all the great miracles that they had seen [Jesus do].
Ketika Yesus hampir tiba di Yerusalem, yakni di jalan menurun pada Bukit Zaitun, para murid-Nya dan semua orang banyak yang mengikuti Dia bersukacita memuji Allah dengan suara nyaring. Mereka memuji Allah karena semua keajaiban yang dilakukan Yesus yang sudah mereka lihat.
38 They were saying things like, “May the Lord [God] bless our king who comes representing [MTY] him!” “May there be peace [between God] in heaven [and us his people]!” “May [everyone] praise God!”
Mereka berseru-seru, “‘Diberkatilah raja kita ini yang datang mewakili TUHAN!’ Sekarang kita akan berdamai dengan TUHAN di surga! Kemuliaan bagi TUHAN di tingkat surga yang tertinggi!”
39 Some of the Pharisees who were in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples [for saying things like that]!”
Beberapa orang Farisi di antara orang banyak itu berkata kepada Yesus, “Guru, suruhlah para pengikutmu itu diam!”
40 He replied, “I tell you this: If these people would be silent, the stones themselves would shout [to praise me]!”
Tetapi jawab-Nya, “Aku beritahukan kepada kalian: Seandainya mereka diam pun, batu-batu di sepanjang jalan ini akan bersorak dengan kata-kata yang sama.”
41 When [Jesus] came near [to] Jerusalem and saw the city, he cried about [its people].
Ketika Yesus semakin dekat dengan Yerusalem, Dia memandang kota itu lalu meratapinya,
42 He said, “[My disciples know what they need to do] to have peace [with God]; I wish that even today [the rest of] you people knew it. But now you are unable to know [MTY] it.
“Kasihan sekali, hai kalian penduduk Yerusalem! Alangkah baiknya kalau hari ini kalian tahu cara berdamai dengan Allah. Tetapi tidak mungkin kalian mengerti sekarang!
43 I want you to know this: Soon [your enemies] will come and will set up a barricade around your [city]. They will surround [the city] and attack [it] on all sides.
Karena akan datang masanya ketika musuh-musuh kalian mengepung kota ini, menimbun tanah untuk menerobos temboknya, dan menyerang kalian dari segala arah.
44 They will [break through] the walls [and] destroy everything. They will smash you and your people/children. [When they finish destroying everything], there will not be one stone left on top of another. [All this will happen] because you did not recognize the time when God sent his [Messiah] to [save] you!”
Mereka akan membunuh semua penduduk kota ini dan menghancurkan seluruh tembokmu sampai rata dengan tanah, sehingga tidak ada batu yang masih tersusun. Hal itu akan terjadi karena kalian tidak menyadari arti hari-hari yang sedang terjadi sekarang ini, yaitu waktu Aku mengunjungi kalian sebagai wakil Allah.”
45 [Jesus entered Jerusalem and] went into the Temple [courtyard]. He saw the people who were selling [things there],
Lalu Yesus masuk ke teras rumah Allah dan mengusir para pedagang yang sedang berjualan di sana.
46 and he began to chase them out. He said to them, “It has been written {[A prophet] wrote} [in the Scriptures that God said], ‘[I want] my house to be a place where people pray’; but you bandits have made it a cave where you can [hide]!”
Kata-Nya kepada mereka, “Dalam Kitab Suci, Allah berkata, ‘Rumah-Ku akan disebut rumah doa.’ Tetapi kalian sudah menjadikannya ‘tempat persembunyian para pencuri!’”
47 Each day [during that week Jesus] was teaching people in the Temple [courtyard]. The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws and [other Jewish] leaders tried to find a way to kill him.
Sesudah itu, setiap hari Yesus mengajar di teras rumah Allah. Sementara itu, para imam kepala, ahli-ahli Taurat, dan para pemimpin Yahudi berusaha mencari cara untuk membunuh Dia.
48 But they did not find any way to do it, because all the people there listened eagerly to him [and would have resisted them if they had tried to hurt him].
Tetapi mereka tidak bisa berbuat apa-apa karena di sekeliling-Nya selalu ada banyak orang yang sangat tertarik untuk mendengarkan setiap pengajaran-Nya.
