Mark 4
1 Another time Jesus began to teach [people] alongside Lake [Galilee. As he was doing that, a very large crowd gathered around him. Because people were jostling him], he got into a boat in the lake [so that he could speak to the crowd better. Then he sat in it and began to teach the crowd from the boat]. At the same time, the crowd was on the shore close to the lake.
О И когато остана сам, ония, които бяха около Него с дванадесетте, Го попитаха за притчите.
2 Then he taught them many parables. While he was teaching them, he told them [this]:
И поучаваше ги много с притчи, и казваше им в поучението Си:
3 “Consider [well the meaning of this illustration]: A man/farmer went out [to his field] to sow [some seeds].
Слушайте: Ето, сеячът излезе да сее.
4 As he was scattering them [over the soil], some [of the] seeds fell on the path. Then some birds came and ate those seeds.
И когато сееше, някой зърна паднаха край пътя; и птиците дойдоха и ги изкълваха.
5 Other [seeds] fell on ground where there was not much soil [on top of] rock. Very soon the [seeds] sprouted because [the sun warmed] the moist soil quickly where it was not deep.
Други паднаха на канаристо място, гдето нямаше много пръст, и скоро поникнаха, защото нямаше дълбока почва;
6 But after the sun shone [on those young plants], they became scorched. Then they withered because they did not have [deep] roots.
а когато изгря слънцето, пригоряха, и понеже нямаха корен, изсъхнаха.
7 As the farmer sowed, other [seeds] fell on [ground that contained roots of] thorny plants. [The] seeds [grew, but] the thorny plants also grew up and crowded out [the] good [plants. So the plants] produced no grain.
И други паднаха между тръните; и тръните порастнаха и ги заглушиха, и не дадоха плод.
8 But as the farmer sowed, other [seeds] fell on good soil. As a result, they sprouted, they grew well, and then they produced [plenty of] grain. [Some] plants bore 30 [grains]. [Some] bore 60 [grains]. [Some] bore 100 [grains].”
А другите паднаха на добрата земя, и даваха плод, който растеше и се умножаваше, и принесоха кое тридесет, кое шестдесет и кое сто.
9 Then Jesus said, “If you want to understand this [MTY], you should consider [carefully what I have just said].”
И каза: Който има уши да слуша, нека слуша.
10 [Later], when only the twelve [disciples] and a few [other] people were with him, they asked him about the parables.
И когато остана сам, ония, които бяха около Него с дванадесетте, Го попитаха за притчите.
11 He said to them, “People have not understood before [the new message] about how God wants to rule people’s lives. It is to you that this is being made known {that I am making this known}. But I tell about this [only] (in parables/figuratively) to those who have not [yet invited God to rule their lives].
И каза им: На вас е дадено да познаете тайната на Божието царство; а на ония, външните всичко бива в притчи;
12 As a result [it is true what a prophet has written], Although they see [what I do], they do not perceive [what it means] [DOU]. Although they hear [what I say], they do not understand [what it means] [DOU]. So they do not (repent/turn away from their sinful behavior) in order that they would be forgiven {[God] would forgive them}.”
тъй щото гледащи да гледат, а да не виждат, и слушащи, да слушат, а да не разбират, да не би да се обърнат и да им се прости [греха].
13 He also said to them, “([I am disappointed that] you do not understand this illustration!/Can you not understand this illustration?) [RHQ] [If you do not understand] this, (you will certainly not understand any of the [other] illustrations!/how will you understand any of the [other] illustrations?) [RHQ] [Nevertheless, I will explain it to you].
И казва им: Не разбирате ли тая притча? А как ще разберете всичките притчи?
14 [In the illustration that I told you], the man who sows [seeds represents someone who] declares God’s message [DOU].
Сеячът сее словото.
15 [Some people are like] the path on which [some of] the seeds fell. When they hear [the message], Satan comes at once and causes them to forget what they have heard.
А ония край пътя, гдето се сее словото, са тия, които като чуват, Сатана веднага дохожда и грабва посеяното в тях слово.
16 [Some people are like the ground where the soil was not very deep over] rock. When they hear [God’s] message, they immediately accept it with joy.
Също и посеяното на канаристите места са тия които, като чуят словото, веднага с радост го приемат;
17 But, because [the message does not penetrate deeply] [MET] [into their hearts/inner beings, they] believe it for [only a short time. They are like the plants that] did not have deep roots. When others treat such people badly or cause them to suffer because [they believe], those people [who are suffering] soon stop believing God’s message.
нямат, обаче, корен в себе си, но са привременни; после, като настане напаст или гонение, поради словото, веднага се съблазняват.
18 [Some people are like] the [soil that had roots of] thorny weeds in it. [Although] those people hear [God’s] message,
Посеяното между тръните са други; те са ония, които са слушали словото;
19 they desire to be rich, and they desire to own many other things. So they worry [only] about material things. The result is that they forget [God’s] message and they do not do [the things that God wants them to do]. (aiōn g165)
а светските грижи, примамката на богатството, и пожеланията за други работи, като влязат, заглушават словото, и то става безплодно. (aiōn g165)
20 [But some people] are like the good soil. They hear [God’s] message and they accept it [and they believe] it. [Then they do the things that God wants them to do. They are like the good plants that produced] 30, 60 or 100 [grains].”
А посеяното на добрата земя са тия, които слушат словото, приемат го, и дават плод, тридесет, шестдесет, и стократно.
21 He also told them [another parable], saying, “(People certainly do not [light] an oil lamp and then bring it [in the house] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} under a container or under a bed./Would anyone [light] an oil lamp and then bring it [in the house] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} under a container or under a bed?) [RHQ] (No, [they light it] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} in a place [where it lights the house].[/Wouldn’t they light it] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} in a place [where it lights the house]?) [RHQ]
И каза им: Затова ли се донася светилото, за да го турят под шиника или под леглото? Не за това ли, да го поставят на светилника?
22 [Similarly], there are some [parts of God’s message] that people do not know. [But he intends that] people will understand all the things that they do not know [now].
Защото няма нещо тайно, освен за да се яви; нито е имало нещо спотаено, освен за да излезе наяве.
23 If you want to understand this, you should consider [carefully] what you [have just heard].”
Ако има някой уши да слуша, нека слуша.
24 Then he said to them, “Consider carefully what you hear [me say to you], for [God] will let you [understand] to the same degree that you [consider what I say]. [He] will let you [understand] even more than that.
Каза им тоже: Внимавайте в това, което слушате. С каквато мярка мерите, ще ви се отмери, и ще ви се прибави.
25 Those who [consider what I say] and understand it, [God] will enable them to understand more. But those who do not [consider carefully what I say], they will forget even what they already know.”
Защото който има, нему ще се даде, а който няма, от него ще се отнеме и това, което има.
26 Jesus also said, “God [has the power to change] people who let him rule their lives. I [will illustrate how that can happen] [MET]. A man planted seeds in the ground.
И каза: Божието царство е също, както кога човек хвърли семе в земята;
27 Afterwards he slept each night and rose each day [without worrying about the seeds]. [During that time] the seeds sprouted and grew in a way that he did not understand, because by itself the soil [caused the plants to grow and produce grain].
и спи, и става нощ и ден; а как никне и расте, той не знае.
28 First the stalks [appeared]. Then the heads [appeared]. Then the full kernels in the heads [appeared].
Земята сама по себе си произвежда, първо ствол, после клас, подир това пълно зърно в класа.
29 As soon as the grain was ripe he sent [people] [MTY] to harvest it because it was time to harvest [the grain].”
А когато узрее плодът, начаса изпраща сърпа, защото е настанала жетва.
30 [Jesus told them] another [parable. He] said, “I will tell you [RHQ] how the [number of people] whose lives God rules in a new way [will continue to grow] (OR, each continue to have more and more influence in this world). I hope [RHQ] that this illustration will show this [to you].
При това каза: На какво да уприличим Божието царство? Или с каква притча да го представим?
31 [You know what happens to] mustard seeds when we plant them. Though mustard seeds are among the smallest of seeds, [here in Israel] they become large plants.
То прилича на синапово зърно, което, когато се посее в земята, е по-малко от всичките семена, които са на земята;
32 After they are planted, they grow up and become larger than the other garden plants. They put out big branches so that birds are able to make nests in their shade.”
но когато се посее, расте, и става по-голямо от всичките злакове, и пуска големи клони, така че под сянката му могат да се подслонят небесните птици.
33 Jesus used many such illustrations when he talked to the people about God. If they were able to understand [some, he kept telling them more].
С много такива притчи им прогласяше словото, според както можеха да слушат.
34 He always used parables when he spoke to them. But he explained all [the illustrations] to his own disciples when he was alone with them.
А без притча не им говореше; но насаме обясняваше всичко на Своите ученици.
35 On that same day, when the sun was setting, Jesus said to [his disciples], “Let’s cross over to the opposite side of [Lake Galilee in the boat].”
И в същия ден, когато се свечери, Исус им казва: Да минем на отвъдната страна.
36 So they left the crowd, [got in] the boat where Jesus [already] was, and left. [Other people] went with them in other boats.
И като оставиха народа, вземат Го със себе си в ладията, тъй както бе; и имаше други ладии с Него.
37 A strong wind came up and the waves started coming into the boat! The boat was soon nearly full [of water]!
И дига се голяма ветрена буря, и вълните се нахвърляха в ладията, тъй че тя вече се пълнеше с вода.
38 Jesus was in the back part of the boat. He was sleeping, [with his head] on a cushion. So they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher! (You ought to be concerned that we are about to die!/Are you not concerned that we are about to die?) [RHQ]”
А Той беше в задната част, заспал на възглавница; и те Го събуждат и Му казват: Учителю! Нима не Те е грижа че загиваме?
39 So Jesus got up and rebuked the wind. Then he said to the lake, “Be quiet! Be still! [DOU]” The wind [immediately] blowing and then [the lake] became very calm.
И Той, като се събуди, смъмра вятъра и рече на езерото: Мълчи! Утихни! И вятърът престана, и настана голяма тишина.
40 He said to the disciples, “([I am disappointed that] you are afraid [like that]!/Why are you afraid [like that]?) [RHQ] Do you not yet believe [that I can protect you]?”
И рече им: Защо сте страхливи? Още ли нямате вяра?
41 They were very awestruck. They said to one another, “[Not only do the demons obey this man, but] even the wind and the waves obey him! “(What kind of man is he?/This man is [not like ordinary] people!) [RHQ]”
И голям страх ги обзе; и те си казаха един на друг: Кой е, прочее, Тоя, че и вятърът и езерото Му се покоряват?
