Luke 5
1 One day while many people were crowding around him to hear the message from God, Jesus was standing on the shore of Gennesaret Lake, [which is also called Lake Galilee].
Und es geschah einmal, - er stand am See Genesareth -, daß sich das Volk an ihn herandrängte, um das Wort Gottes zu hören.
2 He saw two [fishing] boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had gone out of the boats and were washing their [fishing] nets [on the shore]. One of the boats belonged to Simon.
Er sah zwei Boote am Ufer liegen; die Fischer waren ausgestiegen und wuschen ihre Netze.
3 Jesus got in that boat and asked Simon to push the boat a little bit away from the shore [so that he could speak to the crowd more easily. Jesus] sat in the boat and taught the people [who were on the shore].
Er stieg in eines der Boote, das dem Simon gehörte, und bat ihn, vom Land ein wenig abzustoßen. Dann setzte er sich nieder und lehrte die Scharen vom Boote aus.
4 After he finished speaking [to them], he said to Simon, “Push the boat out to where the water is deep. Then let your nets down [into the water] to catch [some fish]!”
Als er zu reden aufgehört hatte, sagte er zu Simon: "Fahr auf die hohe See und werft eure Netze aus zum Fange!"
5 Simon replied, “Master, we [(exc)] worked hard all night but we did not catch any [fish]. But because you [(sg)] tell me to do it, I will let down the nets.”
Doch Simon sprach zu ihm: "Meister, die ganze Nacht haben wir uns abgeplagt und trotzdem nichts gefangen. Allein auf dein Wort hin will ich die Netze auswerfen."
6 When Peter [and the men with him] had done that, they caught so many fish that their nets were breaking.
Sie taten es und fingen eine große Menge Fische; die Netze drohten zu zerreißen.
7 They motioned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. So they came and filled both the boats [with fish from the net]. The result was that the boats were so full that they began to sink.
Sie winkten den Gefährten im anderen Boote, sie sollten kommen und mit anfassen. Und diese kamen, und man füllte beide Boote, so daß sie beinahe versanken.
8 Simon and all the men who were with him were amazed at how many fish they had taken. James and John, the two sons of Zebedee, who were Simon’s partners, were among those who were amazed. When Simon, [whose other name was] Peter, saw [the fish, feeling ashamed to be in the presence of someone who obviously had God’s power], he prostrated himself before Jesus and said, “Lord, you should go away from me, because I am a sinful man!”
Als Simon Petrus das sah, fiel er Jesus zu Füßen mit den Worten: "Herr, geh weg von mir; ich bin ein sündiger Mensch."
Denn Schrecken hatte ihn ergriffen und alle, die bei ihm waren, des Fischfangs wegen, den sie gemacht hatten;
10 But Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid! [Up until now you(sg) have been gathering fish] [MET], but from now on you will gather people [to become my disciples].”
desgleichen auch Jakobus und Johannes, die Söhne des Zebedäus, die Simons Gefährten waren. Jesus aber sprach zu Simon: "Hab keine Furcht! Von nun an sollst du Menschenfischer sein."
11 So after they brought the boats to the shore, they left their business [HYP] [in the hands of others] and went with Jesus.
Sie zogen ihre Boote ans Land, verließen alles und gingen mit ihm fort.
12 While [Jesus] was in one of the cities [there in the district of Galilee], there was a man there who was very severely affected by leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself before him and, [wanting Jesus to heal him], pleaded with him, “Lord/Sir, [please heal me, because] you are able to heal me if you are willing to!”
In einer jener Städte, wo er weilte, war ein Mann ganz vom Aussatz bedeckt. Als er Jesus sah, warf er sich vor ihm auf sein Antlitz nieder und bat: "Herr, wenn du willst, kannst du mich rein machen."
13 [Then Jesus, disregarding the religious law that forbade people to come close to lepers], reached out his hand and touched the man. He said, “I am willing [to heal you]; and I heal you now!” Immediately the man [was healed]. He was no longer a leper [PRS]!
Da streckte er die Hand aus, berührte ihn und sprach: "Ich will: sei rein!" Und sogleich wich von ihm der Aussatz.
14 Then Jesus told him, “Make sure that you do not report [your healing immediately. First, go to a priest in Jerusalem] and show yourself to him [so that he can examine you and verify that you no longer have leprosy]. After the priest tells [the local people], they will know that [you have been healed, and you will be able to associate with them again]. Also take to the priest [the offering] that Moses commanded [that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer].”
Er sprach zu ihm: "Sage es niemand! Geh vielmehr hin, zeige dich dem Priester und opfere für deine Reinigung die Gabe, wie sie Moses vorgeschrieben hat; sie mögen dies zum Zeugnis nehmen."
15 But many people heard the man’s report of what [Jesus had done]. The result was that large crowds came to Jesus to hear his [message] and to be healed of their sicknesses {so that he would heal their sicknesses}.
Jedoch die Kunde über ihn breitete sich immer weiter aus. In Scharen strömten sie zusammen, um ihn zu hören und von ihren Krankheiten geheilt zu werden.
16 But he often would go away from them to the desolate area and pray.
Er aber zog sich zum Gebet in die Einsamkeit zurück.
17 One day when [Jesus] was teaching, some men from the Pharisee [sect] were sitting there. Some of them were men who taught the [Jewish] laws. They had come from many [HYP] villages in Galilee [district] and also from Jerusalem and from [other] villages in Judea [district]. [At that time while] God was giving Jesus power to heal people,
Er lehrte eines Tages, und Pharisäer und Gesetzeslehrer, die aus allen Flecken Galiläas und Judäas und aus Jerusalem gekommen waren, saßen auch dabei. Die Kraft des Herrn trieb ihn zu Heilungen.
18 several men brought on a sleeping pad a man who was paralyzed. They wanted to bring him into [the house] and lay him in front of Jesus.
Und siehe, Männer brachten auf einer Bahre einen Lahmen her. Und sie versuchten, ihn hineinzubringen und ihn vor ihn hinzulegen.
19 But there was no way to do that because of the large crowd of people, so they went up [the steps] onto the roof. They tied ropes onto the sleeping pad and, after [removing some of] the tiles on the roof, they lowered the man [on] the sleeping pad. They lowered him through the opening into the midst of the crowd in front of Jesus.
Doch wegen des Gedränges konnten sie ihn nirgends hineinbringen, und so stiegen sie auf das Dach und ließen ihn durch die Ziegel mitsamt dem Bett hinab, mitten hin vor Jesus.
20 When Jesus perceived that they believed that [he could heal the man], he said to him, “My friend, [I] forgive your sins!”
Wie er ihren Glauben sah, da sagte er: "Mann, vergeben sind dir deine Sünden."
21 The men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the rest of the Pharisees began to think within themselves, “Who does this man [think he is, saying] that? He is insulting God! (Nobody can forgive sins!/What person can forgive sins?) [RHQ] Only God can do that!”
Die Schriftgelehrten und die Pharisäer aber machten sich Gedanken. Sie sprachen: "Wer ist dieser, der Gotteslästerungen spricht? Wer kann denn Sünden vergeben als Gott allein?"
22 Jesus perceived what they were thinking. So he said to them, “(You should not think that way [about what I said]!/Why do you question within yourselves [about what I said]?) [RHQ] [Consider this]:
Doch Jesus wußte, was sie dachten, und sprach zu ihnen: "Was denkt ihr in euren Herzen?
23 It would [not] be risky [for someone] to say [to this man], ‘[I] forgive your sins,’ [because no one could see whether or not his sins were really forgiven. But no one] [RHQ], [without having the power to heal], would say to [him], ‘Get up and walk!’ [because people could easily see whether he was healed or not].
Was ist leichter, zu sagen: Vergeben sind dir deine Sünden, oder zu sagen: Steh auf und geh umher?
24 But [as a result of my healing this man] you [(pl)] will know that [God] has authorized [me], the one who came from heaven, to forgive the sins [of people while I am on] the earth, [as well as to heal people].” Then he said to the man who was paralyzed, “To you I say, ‘Get up, pick up your sleeping pad, and go home!’”
Ihr sollt aber sehen, daß der Menschensohn die Macht besitzt, auf Erden Sünden zu vergeben." Dann sprach er zu dem Lahmen: "Ich sage dir: Steh auf, nimm dein Bett und geh nach Hause!"
25 Immediately the man [was healed]. He stood up in front of them. He picked up the [sleeping pad] on which he had been lying, and went home, praising God.
Sofort erhob er sich vor ihren Augen, nahm das Bett, auf dem er gelegen hatte, ging nach Hause und pries Gott.
26 All the people [there] were amazed! They praised God and were completely awestruck. They kept saying, “We [(inc)] have seen wonderful things today!”
Da kamen alle außer sich; sie lobten Gott und sagten voll Furcht: "Heute haben wir Unglaubliches gesehen."
27 Then [Jesus] left [the town] and saw a man who collected taxes [for the Roman government]. His name was Levi. He was sitting in the booth where he collected the taxes. Jesus said to him, “Come with me [and become my disciple]!”
Dann ging er fort; da sah er einen Zöllner namens Levi an der Zollstätte sitzen. Er sprach zu ihm: "Folge mir!"
28 So Levi left his work [HYP] and went with Jesus.
Und er verließ alles, stand auf und folgte ihm.
29 Afterwards, Levi prepared a big feast in his own house [for Jesus and his disciples]. There was a large group of tax collectors and others eating together with them.
Danach hielt Levi ihm in seinem Haus ein großes Mahl. Eine große Menge Zöllner und andere saßen mit zu Tische.
30 The men who were there who taught the [Jewish] laws, ones who belonged to the Pharisee [sect], complained to Jesus’ disciples, saying, “([It is disgusting that] you are eating with tax collectors and [others who we(exc) consider to be] sinners!/Why are you eating with tax collectors [and others who we(exc) consider to be] sinners?)” [RHQ]
Da murrten die Pharisäer und die Schriftgelehrten und fragten seine Jünger: "Warum eßt und trinkt ihr denn mit Zöllnern und mit Sündern?"
31 Then, [to indicate that it was those who knew that they had sinned who were coming to him for help], Jesus said to them, “[It is] people who are sick who need a doctor, not those who are well [MET].
32 [Similarly], I did not come [from heaven] to invite [those who think they are] righteous [to come to me]. On the contrary, [I came to invite those who know that they are] sinners to turn from their sinful behavior [and come to me].”
ich bin nicht dazu da, Gerechte zu berufen, sondern Sünder zur Buße."
33 [Those Jewish leaders] said to Jesus, “The disciples of John [the Baptizer] often abstain from food [to show that they want to please God], and the disciples of the Pharisees do that, too. But your disciples keep on eating and drinking! [Why do not they fast like the others]?”
Da sagten sie zu ihm: "Die Jünger des Johannes und die der Pharisäer fasten viel und beten eifrig, die deinen aber essen und trinken."
34 [To show them that it was not appropriate for his disciples to be sad and abstain from food while he was still with them] [MET], Jesus said to them, “When (the bridegroom/man who is getting married) is with [his friends at the time of the wedding], you certainly do not make his friends abstain from food, do you [RHQ]? [No, you do not do that].
Doch Jesus sprach zu ihnen: "Könnt ihr die Hochzeitsgäste fasten lassen, solange der Bräutigam noch unter ihnen weilt?
35 [But] some day he will be taken away {[his enemies] will take him away} from them. Then, at that time, his friends will abstain from food, [because they will be sad].”
Es werden aber Tage kommen, da ihnen der Bräutigam entrissen ist; in jenen Tagen werden sie dann gleichfalls fasten."
36 Then Jesus told them two parables [to show them that those who desire to live according to God’s new message should not be forced to obey the old religious traditions like] ([fasting/abstaining from food]), [and that those who know only the old traditions are not eager to accept new ones] [MET]. He said, “People never tear a piece of cloth from a new garment and attach it to an old garment [to mend it]. If they did that, not only would they be ruining the new garment by tearing it, but the new piece of cloth would not match the old garment.
Alsdann erzählte er ihnen auch ein Gleichnis: "Niemand reißt ein Stückchen Tuch von einem neuen Kleide ab und näht es auf ein altes Kleid; sonst ist ja das neue Kleid zerrissen, und auch zum alten paßt das Stück vom neuen nicht.
37 Neither does anyone put freshly-[squeezed] grape juice into old skin bags [to store it]. If anyone did that, the grape juice would burst the skin bags [because they would not stretch when the] new [wine ferments and expands. Then] the skin bags would be ruined, and [the wine] would [also] be spilled.
Und niemand füllt jungen Wein in alte Schläuche, sonst sprengt der junge Wein die Schläuche, er selbst läuft aus, und auch die Schläuche sind verdorben.
38 On the contrary, new wine must be put into new wineskins.
Nein, jungen Wein muß man in neue Schläuche füllen dann hält beides.
39 Furthermore, those who have drunk [only] old wine [are content with that]. They do not want to drink the new wine, because they say, ‘The old wine is [MET] fine!’”
Und niemand, der alten Wein getrunken hat, mag gleich daraufhin neuen. Er sagt: 'Der alte schmeckt doch besser.'"
