Mark 3
1 [On another] ([Sabbath/Jewish day of rest]), Jesus entered (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place) again. There was a man there whose hand was shriveled.
Ketika Yesus masuk lagi ke salah satu rumah pertemuan orang Yahudi, di situ ada seorang laki-laki yang salah satu tangannya sudah lumpuh.
2 [Some men of the Pharisee sect] watched him carefully in order to see whether he would heal the man (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day). They did this in order that [if he healed the man], they would accuse him of disobeying [their Jewish laws, because he worked] ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]).
Ada juga beberapa orang Farisi yang sedang mengawasi Yesus. Karena mereka sudah merencanakan bahwa jika Dia menyembuhkan orang itu pada hari Sabat, mereka akan melaporkan Dia kepada pemimpin-pemimpin Yahudi.
3 Jesus said to the man whose hand was shriveled, “Stand up here in front of everyone!” [So the man stood up].
Yesus berkata kepada orang yang tangannya lumpuh itu, “Mari berdiri di depan sini.”
4 Then Jesus said [to the Pharisees], “Do the laws [that God gave Moses] permit people to do good ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]), or do they permit people to do evil? Specifically, do his laws permit us to save a person’s life (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), or [do they permit us] to let him die [by refusing to help him]?” But they did not reply.
Lalu Yesus bertanya kepada mereka, “Menurut hukum Taurat, apa yang boleh kita perbuat pada hari Sabat? Apakah kita diizinkan berbuat baik, atau berbuat jahat? Apakah kita diizinkan menyelamatkan nyawa orang, atau membunuh?” Tetapi tidak ada yang menjawab.
5 He looked around at them angrily. He was very distressed that they were stubbornly [not wanting to help the man]. So he said to the man, “Reach out your hand!” When the man reached out his withered hand, his hand became all right again!
Yesus memandang orang-orang di sekeliling-Nya dengan marah sekaligus sedih karena mereka begitu keras kepala. Kemudian Dia berkata kepada orang yang tangannya lumpuh itu, “Luruskanlah tanganmu ke depan.” Dia pun meluruskan tangannya yang lumpuh dan saat itu juga sembuhlah tangannya, menjadi sekuat tangan sebelahnya!
6 Then the Pharisees [decided to get rid of Jesus. So] after they left [the meeting house], they [immediately met with some of] the Jews who supported Herod [Antipas, who ruled Galilee district]. Together they planned how they could kill Jesus.
Orang-orang Farisi keluar dari rumah pertemuan itu dan segera bertemu dengan kelompok pendukung raja Herodes untuk merencanakan cara membunuh Yesus.
7 Jesus and his disciples left [that] town and went to an area further along [Galilee Lake in order to get away from the people]. But a great crowd of people followed him. They were people who came from Galilee [district],
Sesudah itu Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya meninggalkan tempat itu dan pergi ke danau Galilea. Banyak orang dari provinsi Galilea dan Yudea mengikuti mereka.
8 from Jerusalem [city], from [other towns of] Judea [district], from Idumea [district], from [the region on] the [east] side of the Jordan [River], and from [the region] around Tyre and Sidon [cities]. This great crowd of people came to him because they heard about what he was doing.
Ada juga yang datang dari Yerusalem, daerah Idumea, daerah sebelah timur sungai Yordan, dan dari daerah sekitar Tirus dan Sidon. Mereka semua datang karena sudah mendengar tentang hal-hal luar biasa yang Yesus lakukan.
9 Because he had healed many people, many [other] people who had various illnesses pushed forward in order that by touching him [they would come well]. So he told his disciples that they should get a small boat ready for him [to get in and teach from it]. He wanted to do this in order that the crowd would not crush him [when they pushed forward to touch him].
Orang-orang yang sakit di antara mereka berdesak-desakan mendekati Yesus supaya bisa menyentuh Dia, karena sebelumnya Dia sudah menyembuhkan banyak orang. Oleh sebab itu Yesus berkata kepada murid-murid-Nya, “Tolong siapkan perahu, supaya Aku mengajar dari atas perahu itu. Karena kalau Aku mengajar dari sini, bisa saja Aku terimpit oleh orang banyak itu.”
11 Whenever the evil spirits saw Jesus, [they caused the people whom they controlled] to fall down in front of Jesus [in recognition of Jesus’ power]. Then they exclaimed, “You are (the Son of God/the man who is also God)!”
Di antara orang banyak itu ada juga yang dikuasai oleh roh-roh jahat. Waktu roh-roh jahat itu melihat Yesus, orang-orang yang mereka kuasai langsung menjatuhkan diri di depan-Nya dan berteriak, “Engkaulah Anak Allah!”
12 He commanded the [evil spirits] strongly that they should not tell anyone who he was.
Tetapi Yesus melarang roh-roh jahat itu dengan tegas supaya tidak memberitahukan tentang diri-Nya.
13 Jesus went [with many other people] up into the hills. After he picked out [from among them] the men whom he wanted [to accompany him], they came [close] to him.
Sesudah itu, Yesus naik ke atas bukit, dan Dia memanggil dua belas orang yang sudah Dia pilih. Lalu mereka datang kepada-Nya.
14 He appointed twelve men in order that they might be with him and in order that he might send them out to preach. He called them apostles.
Dia mengangkat mereka sebagai rasul-rasul-Nya untuk menyertai Dia dalam pelayanan dan untuk diutus menyebarkan berita keselamatan.
15 He also gave them power in order that they might expel evil spirits [from people].
Dia juga memberikan kuasa kepada mereka untuk dapat menyembuhkan penyakit dan mengusir setan-setan.
16 These were the twelve men he appointed: Simon, to whom he gave the [new] name Peter; his [younger] brother Andrew;
Nama kedua belas rasul yang dipilih itu adalah sebagai berikut: Simon (yang Yesus beri nama baru Petrus),
17 James, [the son] of Zebedee, and John, the [younger] brother of James, to [both of] whom he added the [new] name, ‘Men who are like Thunder’. [because of their fiery zeal];
kedua anak Zebedeus, yaitu Yakobus dan Yohanes (yang juga Yesus beri nama baru yaitu Boanerges, artinya anak-anak guntur.)
18 Philip; Bartholomew; Levi, whose other name was Matthew; Thomas; [another] James, the son of Alphaeus; Thaddeus; [another] Simon, who was a [member of the party that wanted] to overthrow [the Roman government];
Lalu yang lainnya Andreas, Filipus, Bartolomeus, Matius, Tomas, Tadeus, Yakobus anak Alfeus, Simon orang Kanaan,
19 and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]). He was the one who [later] (betrayed Jesus/helped Jesus’ enemies seize him).
dan Yudas yang berasal dari desa Kariot. Dialah yang kemudian mengkhianati Yesus.
20 Jesus [along with his disciples] went to the house where he was staying [in Capernaum. Again a crowd gathered where he was]. There were many people crowding around him, so that he and his disciples had no time when they could eat or [when they could do anything else].
Sesudah itu Yesus kembali ke rumah yang biasa Dia tinggali. Tetapi banyak orang berkumpul lagi di situ, sampai Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya sama sekali tidak sempat istirahat ataupun makan.
21 After his relatives heard about this, they went to take him home [with them] because (some people/they) were saying that he was insane.
Pada waktu itu ada beberapa orang yang mengenal Yesus berkata tentang-Nya, “Dia sudah gila.” Ketika keluarga-Nya mendengar hal itu, mereka berjalan ke tempat itu untuk memaksa Yesus pulang.
22 [Around that time] some men who taught the [Jewish] laws came down from Jerusalem [city. They heard that Jesus was expelling demons]. So they were telling [people], “Beelzebub, who rules the evil spirits, controls him. He is the one who enables this man to expel evil spirits [from people]!”
Ada juga ahli-ahli Taurat yang datang dari Yerusalem. Mereka berkata, “Yesus sudah dikuasai oleh Beelzebul, raja para setan. Beelzebul itulah yang memberinya kuasa untuk mengusir setan-setan.”
23 Jesus summoned those men. [Then he spoke to them] in parables [to enable them to realize that Satan would not oppose his own evil spirits. He also wanted them to realize that by expelling evil spirits, he was demonstrating that he was much more powerful than Satan]. So he said, “([It is ridiculous] to suggest that Satan would expel his own [evil spirits]!/Why would Satan expel his own [evil spirits]?) [RHQ]
Maka Yesus memanggil orang banyak untuk berkumpul dan Dia berbicara kepada mereka, “Tidak mungkin Satanas mengusir roh-roh yang berpihak kepadanya.” Lalu Yesus mengajar mereka dengan menggunakan beberapa kiasan:
24 If [people who live in the same] country are fighting one another, they will cease to be a single group under one ruler.
“Kaki-tangan Satanas tidak mungkin terpecah-pecah dan saling melawan. Hal itu bisa digambarkan seperti satu negara atau satu keluarga: Kalau mereka saling melawan dan saling berperang, pasti negara atau keluarga itu akan hancur. Jadi jelaslah bahwa iblis tidak mungkin memberi kekuatan kepada-Ku untuk mengusir roh-roh yang berpihak kepadanya. Karena kalau itu terjadi, berarti kerajaan iblis sudah hancur.
25 And if [people who live in the same] house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one family].
26 Similarly, if Satan and his [evil spirits] were fighting one another, instead of remaining strong, he would become powerless.
27 Contrary to [what you say about me], someone can enter the house of a strong man [like Satan] and carry off his possessions only if he first ties up the strong man. Then [and only then] will he [be able to] steal the things in that man’s house.”
Aku di sini sebagai musuh iblis yang datang untuk merampas harta darinya. Tidak ada pencuri yang berani masuk begitu saja ke dalam rumah orang yang sangat kuat. Sebelum masuk, dia harus lebih dulu mengikat orang kuat itu, barulah dia bisa masuk ke rumahnya dan merampas barang-barangnya.
28 [Jesus also said], “Consider this carefully! People may sin in many ways and they may speak evilly about God, but [if] they [then are sorry and ask God to] forgive [them], [God] will forgive them for doing that.
“Aku menegaskan kepadamu: Allah bersedia mengampuni segala macam dosa manusia, termasuk segala bentuk penghinaan mereka terhadap-Nya.
30 [Jesus told them that] because [they refused to admit that the Holy Spirit was helping him to expel demons. Instead], they were saying, “An evil spirit is controlling him!”
Yesus berkata begitu karena orang-orang sudah menghina Dia dengan berkata, “Yesus dikuasai roh jahat.”
31 Jesus’ mother and [younger] siblings arrived. While they stood outside, they sent [someone inside] in order to call him [outside].
Pada waktu itu juga, ibu dan saudara-saudara Yesus tiba di rumah itu dan menunggu di luar. Mereka minta tolong kepada orang untuk memanggilkan Dia.
32 A crowd was sitting around Jesus. One of them said to him, “Listen/Hey, your mother and your [younger] brothers and sisters are outside, and they are wanting (to see/to talk with) you!”
Saat itu Yesus sedang duduk di dalam rumah dengan dikelilingi banyak orang. Lalu ada orang yang berkata, “Guru! Ibu, dan saudara-saudarimu mau bertemu. Mereka sedang menunggu di luar.”
33 Jesus replied to them, “([I will tell you something about] my mother and my brothers.[/Do you know whom I consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [RHQ]
Tetapi Yesus menjawab, “Sekarang Aku akan menunjukkan kepada kalian orang-orang yang Aku anggap seperti ibu atau saudara dan saudari-Ku.”
34 After he looked around at [the disciples] who were sitting around him [in a circle], he said, “Look here! I [love these men as much as] I [love] my mother and my brothers.
Lalu Dia memandang orang-orang yang duduk di sekitar-Nya dan berkata, “Mereka inilah yang Aku anggap sebagai ibu dan saudara-saudari-Ku,
35 Those who habitually do what God wants are [as dear to me] [MET] as my brother, my sister, or my mother!”
yaitu orang-orang yang melakukan kemauan Allah. Orang yang demikianlah yang Aku anggap sebagai ibu, saudara, dan saudari-Ku!”
