< Mark 10 >
1 Jesus left (that place/Capernaum) [with his disciples], and they went through Judea district and on across [to the east side of] the Jordan [River]. When crowds gathered around him again, he taught them again, as he customarily did.
Kemudian Yesus meninggalkan tempat itu lalu pergi menyeberang ke sebelah timur sungai Yordan di provinsi Yudea. Di situ juga banyak orang berdatangan kepada-Nya. Dan seperti biasa, Yesus mengajar mereka.
2 [While he was teaching them, some] Pharisees approached him and asked him, “Does [our Jewish] law permit a man to divorce his wife?” They asked that in order to be able to criticize him [whether he answered “yes” or “no”].
Waktu itu beberapa orang Farisi datang kepada-Nya dengan maksud menguji Yesus. Mereka bertanya, “Apakah seorang suami boleh menceraikan istrinya?”
3 He answered them, “What did Moses command your [ancestors about a man divorcing his wife]?”
Jawab Yesus, “Apa yang diperintahkan Musa tentang hal itu?”
4 [One of] them replied, “Moses permitted that a man may write on paper [his reason] for divorcing [his wife], [give this paper to her], and then send her away.”
Mereka berkata, “Musa mengizinkan seorang suami menceraikan istrinya dengan syarat memberikan surat keterangan cerai kepada perempuan itu.”
5 Jesus said to them, “It was because your [ancestors] stubbornly wanted just what they desired that Moses wrote that law for [your ancestors], and you [are just like them]!
Maka jawab Yesus, “Musa menulis perintah seperti itu karena hatimu keras dan jahat.
6 [Remember] that he [also wrote that, when God] first created [people], he made [one] man, and [one] woman [to become that man’s wife].
Tetapi sebenarnya kehendak Allah sudah nyata sejak Allah menciptakan dunia ini, ‘Dia hanya menjadikan seorang laki-laki dan seorang perempuan.’
7 That explains why [God said], ‘When a man [and] woman marry, they should no longer live with their fathers and mothers [after they marry].
‘Oleh karena itulah, dalam pernikahan, seorang laki-laki akan meninggalkan ayah ibunya dan dipersatukan dengan seorang istri,
8 Instead, the two of them shall [live together, and they shall] become so [closely united] [MET] [that they are like] one person.’ Therefore, although the people [who marry] were two [separate persons] before, [God regards them] as one person now, [so he wants them to remain married].
sehingga mereka berdua menjadi satu.’ Dengan demikian, di mata Allah suami-istri bukan lagi dua, melainkan satu.
9 Because that is true, a man must not separate from his [wife] whom God has joined [to him, because God’s plan is for them to remain together]!”
Karena itu suami-istri yang sudah dipersatukan Allah dalam pernikahan, tidak boleh diceraikan oleh manusia.”
10 When Jesus and his disciples were alone in a house, they asked him again about this.
Waktu Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya berada di rumah, mereka bertanya lagi kepada-Nya tentang perceraian itu.
11 He said to them, “[God considers that a marriage lasts until either the husband or the wife dies, so he considers] that any man who divorces his wife and marries another woman is committing adultery, [even] if he divorces his first wife.
Yesus berkata kepada mereka, “Ketika seorang suami menceraikan istrinya dan menikah lagi dengan perempuan lain, di mata Allah dia terus hidup berzina terhadap istrinya yang pertama.
12 [God also considers] a woman who divorces her first husband to be committing adultery if she marries another man.”
Begitu juga, kalau seorang istri menceraikan suaminya dan menikah lagi dengan laki-laki lain, maka di mata Allah dia terus hidup berzina terhadap suaminya yang pertama.”
13 [One day], some people were bringing children to Jesus in order that he would touch [and bless] them. But the disciples scolded those people [because they thought that Jesus] ([did not want to be bothered spending time with/was not concerned about]) [children].
Kemudian beberapa orang datang membawa anak-anak mereka kepada Yesus supaya Dia memberkati mereka. Tetapi murid-murid-Nya dengan tegas melarang orang-orang itu.
14 When Jesus saw that, he became angry. He said to the [disciples], “Allow the children to come to me! Do not forbid them [DOU]! It is people who [are humble and trust as they do] who can experience (God’s rule [in their lives]/God taking care of them) [MET].
Waktu Yesus melihat perbuatan para murid-Nya, Dia marah dan berkata kepada mereka, “Biarkanlah anak-anak itu datang kepada-Ku! Jangan melarang mereka! Karena orang-orang seperti merekalah yang menjadi warga kerajaan Allah.
15 Note this: Those who do not [trustingly] allow God to direct [their lives], as children [do], will not enter the place where God rules.”
Aku menegaskan kepadamu: Tidak ada orang yang menjadi warga kerajaan Allah karena jasanya sendiri. Siapa yang menjadi warga kerajaan Allah, dia menerima pemberian itu dengan rendah hati seperti anak kecil.”
16 Then he embraced the children. He also put his hands on them [and asked God to] bless them.
Sesudah berkata begitu, Yesus memeluk anak-anak itu dan meletakkan tangan-Nya pada kepala mereka sambil berdoa meminta berkat bagi mereka.
17 As Jesus was starting to travel [again with his disciples], a [young] man ran up to him. He knelt before Jesus and then he asked him, “Good teacher, what must I do to have eternal life/in order to live [with God] eternally?” (aiōnios )
Waktu Yesus sedang keluar dari rumah itu, seorang lelaki berlari-lari menghampiri Dia. Sambil bersujud di hadapan Yesus dia bertanya, “Guru yang baik, apa yang harus saya lakukan untuk mendapatkan hidup yang kekal?” (aiōnios )
18 Jesus said to him, “(You should consider carefully [what you are implying] (OR, [that you are implying that I am God]) [by] calling me good, because only God is good!/Do you realize [what you are implying] (OR, [that you are implying that I am God]) [by] calling me good, because only God is good?) [RHQ] No other person is good
Tetapi Yesus menjawab, “Mengapa kamu mengatakan Aku baik? Hanya Allah satu-satunya yang baik. Tidak ada yang lain.
19 [But to answer your question], you know the commandments [of Moses, which will cause you to live eternally if you obey them perfectly]. He commanded [things such as] ‘do not murder anyone, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not (testify falsely/lie), do not cheat anyone, and honor your father and mother’.”
Nah, untuk hidup kekal, tentu kamu sudah tahu perintah ini: ‘Jangan berzina, jangan membunuh, jangan mencuri, jangan memberi kesaksian palsu, jangan menipu, hormatilah ayah ibumu.’”
20 The man said to him, “Teacher, I have obeyed all those commandments ever since I was young. [So is] ([that enough/there something else that I have not done])?”
Jawab orang itu kepada-Nya, “Guru, saya sudah menaati semua itu sejak masa muda.”
21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. He said to him, “There is one thing that you have not [yet done]. You must go [home], sell all that you possess, and then give [the money] to poor people. [As a result], you will be spiritually rich in heaven. After [you have done what I have told you], come with me [and be my disciple]!”
Yesus pun merasa kasihan kepadanya dan sambil memandang orang itu, Dia berkata, “Masih ada satu hal lagi yang belum kamu lakukan. Pergilah, juallah semua milikmu, lalu bagi-bagikanlah uangnya kepada orang miskin. Dengan begitu kamu akan memperoleh harta di surga. Kemudian datanglah kepada-Ku dan ikutlah Aku dengan tekad untuk tetap setia sekalipun harus mati disalibkan.”
22 The man became disappointed when he heard that. He went away sad, because he was very rich [and he did not want to give away everything].
Orang itu sangat kecewa mendengar jawaban Yesus, lalu dia pergi dengan sedih karena dia sangat kaya dan tidak mau melepaskan hartanya.
23 Jesus looked around [at the people]. Then he exclaimed to his disciples, “It is very difficult for people who are wealthy to [decide to] let God rule their lives!”
Yesus memandang para murid di sekeliling-Nya dan berkata kepada mereka, “Sulit sekali bagi orang kaya untuk menjadi warga kerajaan Allah!”
24 The disciples were surprised at what he said. [They thought that God favored the rich people, so if God did not save them, he would not save anyone]. So Jesus replied again to them, “My dear friends, it is very difficult for anyone [to decide] to let God rule his life.
Mereka terheran-heran mendengar perkataan-Nya itu. Tetapi Yesus berkata lagi, “Anak-anak-Ku, memang sulit sekali bagi orang yang mengandalkan kekayaannya untuk menjadi warga kerajaan Allah!
25 It is impossible for a camel to go through the eye of a needle. It is almost as difficult [HYP] for rich people [to decide] to let God rule their [lives].”
Lebih gampang seekor unta melewati lubang jarum daripada orang kaya masuk kerajaan Allah.”
26 The disciples were very astonished. So they said to each other, “If that is so, (it will be unlikely that anyone will be saved {that God will save anyone}!/will [God] save anyone?) [RHQ]”
Mendengar itu, mereka semakin tercengang dan bertanya satu sama lain, “Kalau begitu, siapa yang bisa selamat dan masuk surga?”
27 Jesus looked at them and then he said, “[Yes], it is impossible for people [to save themselves]! But God certainly can [save them], because God can do anything!”
Sambil memandang mereka, Yesus berkata, “Manusia tidak sanggup menjamin dirinya diselamatkan dan masuk surga, tetapi Allah sanggup melakukan segala sesuatu.”
28 Peter exclaimed, “[You know that] we have left behind everything and we have become your disciples. [So], ([what about us/will God (accept us/reward us)])?”
Lalu Petrus berkata kepada-Nya, “Bagaimana dengan kami? Kami sudah meninggalkan semua milik kami dan mengikut Engkau.”
29 Jesus replied, “I want you to know this: Those who have left [their] houses, [their] brothers, [their] sisters, [their] father, [their] mother, [their] children, or [their] plots of ground, to [be] my [disciples] and to [proclaim] the good news,
Jawab Yesus, “Aku menegaskan kepada kamu semua: Setiap orang yang sudah meninggalkan rumahnya, saudara-saudarinya, orangtuanya, pasangannya, anak-anaknya, atau ladangnya karena mengikut Aku atau karena memberitakan Kabar Baik,
30 will receive in this life 100 times as much [as they left behind. That will include houses and people as dear as] brothers and sisters and mothers and children, and plots of ground. Furthermore, although people will persecute them [here on earth because they believe in me], in the future age [they] will ([have] eternal life/live [with God] eternally). (aiōn , aiōnios )
maka dalam hidupnya yang sekarang juga, dia pasti akan menerima kembali hal-hal tersebut seratus kali lipat. Di dunia ini dia akan menerima lebih banyak rumah, saudara laki-laki dan perempuan, ibu, anak-anak, dan ladang. Namun selain itu dia juga akan dianiaya. Tetapi pada akhirnya dia akan menerima upah besar di zaman yang akan datang, yaitu hidup yang kekal. (aiōn , aiōnios )
31 But I [warn you all]: Many of you who [now consider yourselves] to be very important will be unimportant [at that future time], and many of you who [now consider yourselves] to be unimportant will be very important [at that future time]!”
Tetapi kelak, banyak orang yang sekarang mempunyai kedudukan tinggi akan mendapat kedudukan yang rendah. Dan banyak orang yang sekarang mempunyai kedudukan rendah akan mendapat kedudukan yang tinggi.”
32 [Some days later as they continued to travel], Jesus and his disciples were walking on the road that leads up to Jerusalem [city]. Jesus was walking ahead of them. [The disciples/apostles] were astonished [that he was going to where there were many people who opposed him], and the other people who were with them were afraid [about what would happen to him in Jerusalem. Along the way he took the twelve disciples to a place by themselves]. Then he began to tell them again about what was going to happen to him, saying,
Yesus bersama murid-murid-Nya dan beberapa orang lain pergi ke Yerusalem. Yesus berjalan di depan mereka. Murid-murid-Nya merasa heran, sementara orang banyak yang mengikuti mereka dari belakang merasa takut, karena mereka tahu bahwa di kota itu ada orang-orang yang memusuhi Yesus. Lalu Yesus kembali mengumpulkan kedua belas murid-Nya secara tersendiri dan memberitahukan apa yang akan terjadi pada diri-Nya.
33 “Listen carefully! We are going up to Jerusalem. There the chief priests and the men who teach the Jewish laws will be enabled {someone will help the chief priests and those who teach our [Jewish] laws} to seize me. Then they will declare that I must die, [even though] I am the one who came from heaven. Then they will take me to the Roman [authorities].
“Dengarkanlah baik-baik! Kita sedang menuju Yerusalem. Di sana Aku akan diserahkan kepada imam-imam kepala dan ahli-ahli Taurat. Mereka akan menjatuhkan hukuman mati kepada-Ku. Kemudian mereka akan menyerahkan Aku kepada para penguasa yang bukan orang Yahudi.
34 Those men will ridicule me. They will spit on me. They will (scourge me/whip me with a leaded whip.) Then they will kill me. But on the third day after that, I will become alive again!”
Lalu mereka akan mengejek, meludahi, mencambuk, dan membunuh-Ku. Tetapi pada hari ketiga sesudah kematian-Ku, Aku akan hidup kembali.”
35 [Along the way], James and John, [who were] the two sons of Zebedee, approached Jesus and they said to him, “Teacher, please do for us what we will ask you to do!”
Sesudah itu, Yakobus dan Yohanes anak-anak Zebedeus datang kepada Yesus dan berkata, “Guru, kami ingin meminta sesuatu dari Engkau.”
36 He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
Lalu Yesus bertanya, “Apa yang kalian kehendaki untuk Aku perbuat bagimu?”
37 They said to him, “When you [rule] gloriously, [let us rule with you]. Let one of us [sit] at your right side and one sit at your left side.”
Jawab mereka, “Waktu Engkau menjadi Raja nanti dan duduk di atas takhta kerajaan-Mu, izinkanlah kami berdua duduk di sebelah kanan dan kiri-Mu dalam kemuliaan-Mu.”
38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not understand what you are asking for.” Then he asked them, “Can you endure suffering [MTY] like I am about to suffer? Can you endure being killed [MTY] as I will be killed {people killing you as they will kill me}?”
Tetapi jawab Yesus, “Kalian tidak mengerti apa yang kalian minta. Apakah kalian sanggup menerima penderitaan seperti yang akan Aku alami? Apakah kalian siap ditimpa kesengsaraan seperti yang akan Aku alami?”
39 They said to him, “[Yes], we are able [to do that]!” Then Jesus said to them, “[It is true that] you will endure suffering [MTY] like I will suffer, and you will endure being killed as I will be killed {people killing you as they will kill me}.
Jawab mereka, “Kami bisa.” Lalu kata Yesus, “Memang kalian akan menderita dan memikul kesengsaraan besar sama seperti yang akan Aku alami.
40 But I am not the one who chooses the ones who will sit next to me [and rule with me. God will give] those places to the ones he appoints.”
Tetapi Aku tidak berhak untuk menentukan siapa yang akan duduk di sebelah kanan-Ku atau di sebelah kiri-Ku, karena kedua kursi itu disiapkan untuk orang yang sudah dipilih oleh Allah.”
41 The [other] ten [disciples later] heard about what James and John [had requested]. As a result, they were angry with them [because they also wanted to rule with Jesus in the highest positions].
Waktu kesepuluh murid yang lain mendengar permintaan Yakobus dan Yohanes, mereka sangat marah kepada kedua bersaudara itu.
42 Then, after Jesus called them all together, he said to them, “You know that those who rule the non-Jews [enjoy] showing that they are powerful. You also know that officials enjoy commanding others.
Lalu Yesus memanggil semua murid-Nya dan berkata, “Kalian tahu bahwa para penguasa bangsa-bangsa memerintah rakyatnya dengan keras dan menindas hak-hak mereka.
43 But do not be like them! On the contrary, all those among you who want [God to consider them] great must become [like] servants to [the rest of] you.
Tetapi kalian tidak boleh seperti mereka. Kalau kamu mau menjadi orang yang terkemuka, kamu harus mengambil tempat yang paling hina dan menjadi pelayan bagi yang lain.
44 Furthermore, if anyone among you wants [God to consider him] to be the most important, he must [act like] a servant for the rest of you.
Dan kalau kamu mau menjadi nomor satu, kamu harus menjadi budak bagi semuanya.
45 [You should imitate me]. Even though I am the one who has come from heaven, I did not come to be served {for others to serve me}. On the contrary, I came in order to serve others and to allow others to kill me, in order that my dying for people would be like a payment to rescue [many people from being punished] {[God punishing them]} [for their sins].”
Kalian harus mengikuti teladan-Ku. Biarpun Aku Sang Anak Adam, Aku datang ke dunia ini bukan untuk dilayani, tetapi untuk melayani dan memberikan hidup-Ku sebagai kurban untuk menebus banyak orang dari dosa-dosa mereka.”
46 [On the way to Jerusalem, Jesus and the disciples came to Jericho town]. Afterwards, while they were leaving Jericho along with a great crowd, a blind man who habitually begged [for money] was sitting beside the road. His name was Bartimaeus and his father’s name was Timaeus.
Lalu Yesus, murid-murid-Nya, dan orang banyak yang juga mengikuti Yesus tiba di Yeriko. Sewaktu mereka meninggalkan kota itu, ada seorang pengemis yang buta bernama Bartimeus anak Timeus. Dia selalu duduk di pinggir jalan untuk mengemis.
47 When he heard people say that Jesus from Nazareth [was passing by], he shouted, “Jesus! [You who are the Messiah] descended from [King] David, (be merciful to/help) me!”
Ketika mendengar bahwa Yesus orang Nazaret sedang lewat, dia pun berteriak-teriak, “Yesus, Keturunan Daud, kasihanilah saya.”
48 Many people rebuked him and told him that he should be quiet. But he shouted even more, “[You who are the Messiah] descended from [King David], (be merciful to/help) me!”
Banyak orang kesal mendengarnya dan menyuruh dia diam. Tetapi dia semakin keras berteriak, “Yesus, Keturunan Daud, kasihanilah saya.”
49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him [to come over here]!” They summoned the blind man, saying, “Jesus is calling you! So cheer up and get up [and come]!”
Yesus pun berhenti dan berkata, “Bawalah dia kemari.” Lalu mereka memanggil orang buta itu dan berkata kepadanya, “Cepat bangun! Berdirilah. Yesus memanggilmu.”
50 He threw aside his cloak as he jumped up, and he came to Jesus.
Maka orang buta itu langsung berdiri dan mencampakkan jubahnya, lalu datang kepada Yesus.
51 Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “Sir, I [want to be able] to see again!”
Yesus bertanya, “Apa yang kamu mau untuk Aku perbuat bagimu?” Jawab orang buta itu, “Guru, tolonglah supaya saya bisa melihat kembali.”
52 Jesus said to him, “[I am] healing you [because] you believed [in me]. So you may go [home]!” He could see immediately. And he went with Jesus along the road.
Kata Yesus kepadanya, “Karena kamu percaya penuh kepada-Ku, sekarang kamu bisa melihat. Jadi kamu boleh pergi.” Saat itu juga dia langsung dapat melihat lalu mengikut Yesus dalam perjalanan itu.
