Mark 11
1 When they came near to Jerusalem, they came to Bethphage and Bethany [villages] near Olive [Tree] Hill. Then Jesus [summoned] two of his disciples.
Waktu Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya hampir mendekati Yerusalem, mereka tiba di desa Betfage dan Betania yang berada di kaki Bukit Zaitun. Lalu Yesus menyuruh dua orang murid-Nya berjalan lebih dulu
2 He said to them, “Go to that village just ahead of you. As soon as you enter it, you will see a donkey that no one has ever ridden, that has been tied {people have tied} up. Untie it, and then bring it [to me].
dengan berkata, “Berangkatlah lebih dulu ke desa yang di depan itu. Begitu kalian masuk, kalian akan melihat seekor keledai muda yang belum pernah ditunggangi sedang terikat di dekat suatu rumah. Lepaskan ikatannya dan bawalah kemari.
3 If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing that?’, say, [‘Jesus], our Lord, needs [to use] it. He will send it back here [with someone] as soon as [he no longer needs it].’”
Kalau ada orang yang bertanya, ‘Kenapa kalian mengambil keledai itu?’ jawablah, ‘Tuhan memerlukannya. Dia akan segera mengembalikannya.’”
4 So [the two disciples] went and they found the young donkey. It was tied close to the door [of a house], which was beside the street. Then they untied it.
Lalu kedua murid itu pun pergi dan menemukan seekor keledai muda sedang terikat di jalan, di dekat pintu sebuah rumah. Mereka melepaskan talinya.
5 Some of the [people who were there] said to them, “Why are you untying the donkey?”
Beberapa orang yang sedang berdiri di situ bertanya, “Kenapa kalian melepaskan keledai itu?”
6 They told them what Jesus had said. So the people permitted them [to take the donkey].
Lalu mereka menjawab seperti yang dikatakan Yesus tadi, maka orang-orang itu membiarkan mereka membawa keledai itu.
7 They brought the donkey to Jesus. [The disciples] put some of their clothes on it [in order to make something for him to sit on].
Sesampainya kepada Yesus, mereka mengalasi punggung keledai itu dengan jubah-jubah mereka. Lalu Yesus naik dan duduk di atasnya.
8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road [to honor him as a king]. Others, [in order to honor him], spread along the road branches that they cut from [palm trees] in the fields [beside the road].
Untuk menghormati Yesus, orang banyak yang sudah berkumpul melepas jubah-jubah mereka dan menghamparkannya di jalan yang akan Dia lewati. Ada juga yang menaburi jalan itu dengan ranting-ranting berdaun yang mereka potong dari pepohonan.
9 The people who were going in front of him and behind him were all shouting [things like], “Praise God!” “May God bless this one who comes (with his authority/as his representative) [MTY].”
Orang-orang yang berjalan di depan Yesus dan yang mengikuti-Nya dari belakang terus bersorak-sorai, “Hosana! Terpujilah TUHAN! ‘Diberkatilah raja kita ini yang datang mewakili TUHAN!’
10 “May you be blessed {May [God] bless you} when you rule [like] our ancestor [King] David ruled!” “Praise God who is in the highest heaven!”
Dialah penerus kerajaan bapak kita Daud, yang menegakkan kembali pemerintahan TUHAN atas Israel! Diberkatilah dia! Terpujilah TUHAN di tempat-tempat yang tertinggi di surga.”
11 He entered Jerusalem [with them], and then he went into the Temple [courtyard]. After he looked around at everything [there], he left [the city] because it was already late [in the afternoon]. He returned to Bethany with the twelve [disciples and slept there].
Sesudah Yesus sampai di Yerusalem, Dia masuk ke rumah Allah dan melihat-lihat semua yang terjadi di sekitar situ. Tetapi karena sudah hampir malam, Dia bersama kedua belas murid-Nya pergi ke desa Betania.
12 The next day, as Jesus and his disciples were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry.
Hari berikutnya waktu mereka sedang berjalan kembali dari Betania ke Yerusalem, Yesus merasa lapar.
13 He saw from a distance a fig tree with all its leaves, so he went [to it] to see if he could find any [figs] on it. But when he came to it, he found only leaves on it. This was because it was not yet time when [normal fig trees have ripe] figs.
Dari jauh Dia melihat ada pohon ara yang daunnya lebat. Lalu Dia mendekati pohon itu untuk melihat kalau-kalau ada buahnya. Tetapi ternyata pohon itu tidak berbuah, hanya daun saja. Memang saat itu belum musim buah ara.
14 [But to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel, ] he said to the tree, “No one shall ever eat from you again [because you will no longer bear figs].” The disciples heard what he said. (aiōn g165)
Lalu kata Yesus kepada pohon itu, “Mulai sekarang tidak akan pernah ada lagi orang yang makan buahmu.” Dan murid-murid-Nya mendengar perkataan itu. (aiōn g165)
15 Jesus and his disciples went [back] to Jerusalem. He entered the Temple [courtyard. He saw people] who were selling and buying [animals for sacrifices. They were spoiling the place of worship]. He chased those people [from the Temple courtyard.] He also overturned the tables of those who were giving Temple tax money in exchange for Roman coins. He overturned the seats of the men who were selling doves [for sacrifices],
Sesudah tiba di Yerusalem, Yesus masuk ke teras rumah Allah dan mulai mengusir semua orang yang sedang berjual-beli di situ. Dia membalikkan meja-meja yang dipakai oleh para penukar uang, juga menggulingkan bangku-bangku yang dipakai oleh para penjual burung merpati.
16 and he would not allow anyone who was carrying anything [to sell] to go through the Temple [area].
Dia juga melarang orang membawa barang melewati teras rumah Allah, karena itu bukan jalan.
17 Then as he taught those people, he said to them, “It is written {[One of the prophets] wrote} [in the Scriptures that God said], ‘[I want] my house to be called {[people] to call my house} a house where [people from] all nations may pray’, but you bandits have made it [like] a cave where you can hide! ([You know that!/Do you not know that]?) [RHQ]”
Dan Yesus mengajar mereka, “Sampai kapan kalian tidak mengerti Firman Allah ini?! Firman-Nya berkata, ‘Rumah-Ku akan disebut rumah doa untuk semua bangsa.’ Tetapi kalian sudah menjadikannya ‘tempat persembunyian para pencuri!’”
18 The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws [later] heard [about what he had done]. So they planned how they might kill him, [but they knew that it would be difficult], because they realized that the crowd was amazed at what he was teaching and they feared [that the people would soon decide that Jesus had more authority over the Temple than they did] (OR, [feared what the people would do if they tried to arrest Jesus]).
Waktu para imam kepala dan ahli-ahli Taurat mendengar tentang perbuatan Yesus itu, mereka semakin mencari cara untuk membinasakan Dia. Mereka takut kepada Yesus karena banyak orang sangat mengagumi ajaran-Nya.
19 That evening, [Jesus and his disciples] left the city [and again slept in Bethany].
Ketika hari mulai gelap, Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya meninggalkan kota itu.
20 [The next] morning, while they were going along [the road toward Jerusalem, they saw that the fig tree that Jesus had cursed] had withered completely.
Besok paginya, waktu Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya berjalan melewati pohon ara itu, tampaklah pohon itu sudah mati dan kering sampai ke akar-akarnya.
21 Peter remembered [what Jesus had said to the fig tree] and he exclaimed to Jesus, “Teacher, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered!”
Petrus teringat pada peristiwa kemarin, lalu dia berkata, “Guru, lihat! Pohon yang Engkau kutuk kemarin sudah kering.”
22 Jesus replied, “[You should not be surprised that God did what I asked]! You must trust that God [will do whatever you ask him to do]!
Jawab Yesus kepadanya, “Percayalah penuh kepada Allah.
23 [Also] note this: If anyone says to this hill, ‘Be raised up {Rise up} and then be thrown {throw yourself} into the lake!’ and if he does not doubt [that what he asks for will happen], that is, if he believes that what he asks for will happen, [God] will do it for him.
Aku menegaskan kepada kamu semua: Kalau kamu percaya penuh, kamu juga bisa membuat keajaiban seperti ini. Misalnya, kamu bisa meminta kepada Allah, ‘Buatlah gunung ini pindah ke dalam laut.’ Asalkan kamu percaya penuh dan tidak ragu bahwa Allah akan melakukan apa yang kamu minta, maka permintaanmu itu pasti dikabulkan.
24 So I tell you, whenever you ask [God] for something when you pray, believe that you will receive it, and, [if you do, God] will do it [for you].
Karena itu, Aku menasihatkan kamu: Saat kamu berdoa meminta sesuatu, percayalah bahwa Allah sedang memberikan apa yang kamu minta, maka hal itu akan terjadi.
25 Now, I [tell you this also]: Whenever you are praying, if you have a grudge against people [because they have harmed you], forgive them, in order that your Father in heaven will [likewise] forgive your sins.”
Setiap kali kamu berdoa, periksalah dirimu sendiri kalau kamu masih menyimpan sakit hati kepada seseorang. Maafkanlah orang itu lebih dahulu, supaya Bapamu yang di surga juga mengampuni semua kesalahanmu.
Tetapi kalau kamu tidak memaafkan orang lain, Bapamu yang di surga juga tidak akan mengampuni kamu.”
27 Jesus and his disciples arrived in the Temple [courtyard] in Jerusalem again. While Jesus was walking [there, a group consisting of] chief priests, [some] men who taught the [Jewish] laws, and elders came to him and they said to him,
Waktu Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya sudah tiba di Yerusalem dan Dia sedang berjalan mengelilingi teras rumah Allah, para imam kepala, ahli Taurat, dan pemimpin Yahudi datang kepada-Nya.
28 “By what authority are you doing these things? Who authorized you to do things [like those you did here yesterday]?”
Mereka bertanya, “Siapa yang memberikan wewenang kepadamu untuk mengajar dan mengubah kebiasaan kami?— seperti yang kamu lakukan kemarin! Atas nama siapa kamu melakukan itu?”
29 Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. If you answer me, I will tell you who authorized me to do those things.
Jawab Yesus, “Aku juga mau menanyakan sesuatu kepada kalian. Kalau kalian menjawab-Ku, maka Aku akan memberitahukan Siapa yang memberikan wewenang itu kepada-Ku.
30 Did God [MTY] or people [authorize] John to baptize [those who came to him]?”
Coba jawab pertanyaan-Ku ini: Siapa yang memberikan wewenang kepada Yohanes Pembaptis untuk membaptis orang-orang? Apakah Allah yang memberikannya, atau dia bekerja atas kemauannya sendiri?”
31 They debated among themselves [as to what they should answer]. They [said to each other], “If we say that it was God [who authorized] him, he will say to us, ‘Therefore, (you should have believed what John said!/why did you not believe what John said?) [RHQ]’
Lalu mereka berunding satu sama lain, “Kalau kita menjawab ‘Allah yang memberikannya,’ nanti Yesus akan menyerang balik, ‘Kalau begitu, kenapa kalian tidak percaya kepada Yohanes?’
32 On the other hand, if we say that it was people [who authorized John, then what will happen to us]?” They were afraid [to say that about where John got his authority, because they knew that] the people [would be very angry with them. They knew that] all the people truly believed that John was a prophet [whom God had sent].
Tetapi kalau kita jawab, ‘Yohanes bekerja atas kemauannya sendiri,’ nanti orang banyak ini akan marah kepada kita!” Akhirnya mereka menjawab, “Kami tidak tahu.” Mereka berkata begitu karena takut kepada orang banyak, sebab semua orang yang berkumpul di situ percaya bahwa Yohanes adalah nabi. Lalu Yesus berkata kepada mereka, “Kalau begitu, Aku juga tidak akan mengatakan kepada kalian Siapa yang memberi-Ku wewenang untuk melakukan tindakan seperti kemarin.”
33 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know [where John got his authority].” Then Jesus said to them, “[Because you did not answer my question, I] will not tell you who authorized me to do those things [here yesterday].”
