Mark 7
1 [One day some] Pharisees and some men who teach the [Jewish] laws gathered around Jesus. They had come from Jerusalem [to investigate him].
Da kamen zu ihm Pharisäer und einige Schriftgelehrte aus Jerusalem.
2 The Pharisees and all of the [other] Jews [strictly] observe the traditions that their ancestors [taught. For example, they refuse to] eat until they first wash their hands [with a special ritual], especially after they [return] from [buying things in] the marketplace. [They think that God will be angry with them if they do not do that, because some person or thing unacceptable to God might have touched] ([them/the things they bought]). There are many other such [traditions] that they accept and try to obey. Specifically, they wash [in a special way] their cups, pots, kettles, containers, and beds [in order that using these things will not make God reject them].
Und da sie sahen, daß etliche seiner Jünger mit "gemeinen", das heißt mit ungewaschenen, Händen ihre Mahlzeit hielten
(-die Pharisäer und die Juden überhaupt essen nämlich nicht, ehe sie sich die Hände nicht mit einer Handvoll Wasser gewaschen haben, getreu der Überlieferung der Alten.
Auch wenn sie von dem Markt kommen, so essen sie nicht, ohne sich gewaschen zu haben. Auch sonst gibt es noch vieles andere, was sie streng nach der Überlieferung beobachten: Abspülung von Bechern, Krügen, Kesseln Bettgestellen.-),
5 That day, those Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws saw that some of his disciples were eating food with hands that they had not washed [using the special ritual]. So they questioned Jesus, saying, “[Your] disciples disobey the traditions of our ancestors! (You should not [let them] eat food if they have not washed their hands [using our special ritual]!/Why do you [let them] eat food if they have not washed their hands [using our special ritual]?) [RHQ]”
fragten die Pharisäer und die Schriftgelehrten ihn also: "Warum leben deine Jünger nicht nach der Überlieferung der Alten, sondern essen mit 'gemeinen' Händen?"
6 Jesus said to them, “Isaiah [rebuked your ancestors], and his words describe very well you people who only pretend to be good! He wrote these words [that God said]: These people speak [as if they] honor me, but they [SYN] really do not think about honoring me at all.
Da sagte er zu ihnen: "Richtig hat Isaias über euch, ihr Heuchler, schon geweissagt; denn also steht geschrieben: 'Dieses Volk ehrt mich mit den Lippen; ihr Herz jedoch ist weit von mir;
7 It is useless for them to worship me, because they teach only what people have commanded [as if I myself had commanded them].
nichtig ist ihr Gottesdienst; Menschensatzungen machen sie zu ihrer Lehre.'
8 You, [like your ancestors], refuse [to do] what God has commanded. Instead, you follow only the traditions that (others/your ancestors) have [taught].”
Ihr gebt das Gebot Gottes preis und haltet euch an die Überlieferung der Menschen; Abspülung von Krügen, Bechern und vieles andere dergleichen tut ihr."
9 Jesus also said to them, “[You think] [IRO] that you are clever in refusing to do what God commanded just so that you can obey your own traditions!
Er fuhr dann fort: "Gar trefflich schiebt ihr das Gebot Gottes beiseite, um eure Überlieferung zu wahren.
10 [For example, our ancestor] Moses [wrote God’s] command, ‘Honor your fathers and your mothers’. He also wrote, ‘[The authorities must] execute a person who speaks evil about his father or mother.’
Moses hat einst geboten: 'Du sollst Vater und Mutter ehren!' und 'Wer Vater oder Mutter schmäht, soll sterben!'
11 But you [teach people that it is all right that people no longer must help their parents. You teach people that it is all right if people] give their things to God [instead of giving them to their parents]. You allow them to say to their parents, ‘What I was going to give to you [to provide for you, I have now promised to] give to God. So I [cannot any longer help you]!’ As a result, you are [actually telling people] that they no longer have to help their parents!
Ihr aber sagt: 'Wer zu Vater oder Mutter spricht: Was ich dir zu leisten hätte, ist 'korban' - d. h. Opfergabe -,
dann laßt ihr ihn für Vater oder Mutter nichts mehr tun.
13 And, by doing that, you disregard what God commanded! You teach your own traditions to others [and tell them strongly that they should obey them] And you do many other things like that.”
Also entkräftet ihr, was Gott gesprochen hat, durch eure Überlieferung, die ihr überliefert habt. Und dergleichen treibt ihr noch viel."
14 Then Jesus again summoned the crowd [to come closer. Then] he said to them [figuratively], “All of you people listen to me! [Try to] understand [DOU] [what I am about to tell you].
Er rief sodann die Scharen wieder zu sich her und sprach zu ihnen: "Hört alle und versteht es wohl.
15 Nothing that people eat causes [God to] consider them to be unacceptable. On the contrary, it is that which comes from people’s (inner beings/hearts) that causes God to reject them.”
Nichts gibt es, was von außen in den Menschen kommt und ihn unrein machen könnte; nein, was vom Menschen ausgeht, das macht den Menschen unrein.
Wer Ohren hat zu hören, der höre!"
17 After Jesus had left the crowd and then entered a house with the disciples, they asked him about the parable [that he had just spoken].
Als er von der Menge weg ins Haus getreten war, da fragten ihn die Jünger nach dem Gleichnis.
18 He replied, “([I am disappointed that] you also do not understand [what it means]!/Why can you not understand [what it means]?) [RHQ] (You ought to understand that nothing that [enters us from] outside can cause [God to] consider us unacceptable to him./Can you not understand that nothing that [enters us from] outside of us can cause [God to] consider us unacceptable to him?) [RHQ]
Er sprach zu ihnen: "Seid denn auch ihr immer noch unverständig? Versteht ihr wirklich nicht, daß, was immer von außen in den Menschen kommt, ihn nicht unrein machen kann,
19 Instead of entering [and ruining] our minds/souls, it goes into our stomachs, and afterwards the refuse passes out [of our bodies].” By saying this, Jesus was declaring that people [can eat] any food without causing [God] to reject them.
weil es nicht in sein Herz eingeht, sondern in den Magen und den naturgemäßen Ausgang nimmt." - Alle Speisen erklärte er damit für rein. -
20 He also said, “It is the [thoughts and actions] that come from within people that cause [God] to consider them unacceptable to him.
"Was aber aus dem Menschen kommt", so fuhr er fort, "das macht den Menschen unrein.
21 Specifically, it is people’s innermost being [that causes them to] think things that are evil; they act immorally, they steal [things], they commit murder.
Von innen, aus den Herzen der Menschen, gehen schändliche Gedanken, Unzucht, Diebstahl, Mord,
22 They [commit] adultery, they are greedy, they [act] maliciously, they deceive [people]. They [act] indecently, they envy [people], they speak evil about others, they are proud, and they [act] foolishly.
Ehebruch, Habgier, Bosheit, Arglist, Ausschweifung, Neid, Lästerung, Hochmut, Unverstand hervor.
23 People think [these thoughts] and then they do these evil actions, and that is what causes [God to] consider them unacceptable to him.”
Alle diese bösen Dinge kommen aus dem Innern, und sie machen den Menschen unrein."
24 After Jesus [and his disciples] left [Galilee district], they went to the region around Tyre. While he stayed at a certain house, he desired that no one know [it], but people soon found out [that he was there].
Dann brach er auf und ging von dort hinweg ins Land von Tyrus und Sidon. Er begab sich in ein Haus, doch wollte er es niemand wissen lassen; allein er konnte nicht verborgen bleiben.
25 A certain woman, whose daughter had an evil spirit [within her], heard about Jesus. At once she came to him and prostrated herself at his feet.
Ein Weib, dessen Töchterchen von einem unreinen Geist besessen war, hatte schon von ihm erfahren. Sie kam herzu und fiel ihm zu Füßen.
26 This woman [was not a Jew. Her ancestors came] from Greece [country], but she was born in [the region around] Phoenicia [town] in Syria district. She pleaded with Jesus that he expel the evil spirit from her daughter.
Das Weib war eine Heidin und stammte aus dem syrischen Phönizien. Sie bat ihn, daß er den Dämon aus ihrer Tochter austreibe.
27 But he [wanted to see how strongly she believed in him. So, suggesting that he should help the Jews first and not the non-Jews whom some Jews called dogs] [MET], [he] spoke to her saying, “First let the children eat all they want, because it is not good for someone to take the food [the mother has prepared] for the children and then throw it to the [little] dogs.”
Er aber sprach zu ihr: "Laß doch die Kinder erst einmal gesättigt werden! Es ist nicht recht, den Kindern das Brot wegzunehmen und es den Hunden vorzuwerfen."
28 But [to show that she believed that non-Jews could also receive help from God] [MET], she replied to him, “Sir, [what you say is] correct, but even the [little] dogs, which lie under the table, eat the crumbs that the children [drop].”
Doch sie entgegnete und sprach zu ihm: "Gewiß, o Herr! Doch auch die Hunde unterm Tisch fressen, was die Kinder übriglassen."
29 [Jesus] said to her, “Because of what you have said, [you have shown me that you believe in what I can do for you]. So I will help you. Now you may go [home, because I have caused] the evil spirit to leave your daughter.”
Da sagte er zu ihr: "Um dieses Wortes willen geh heim! Der Dämon ist aus deiner Tochter ausgefahren."
30 The woman returned to her house and saw that her child was lying [quietly] on the bed and that the evil spirit had left.
Sie ging nach Hause, fand das Kind auf seinem Bett liegen; der Dämon war wirklich ausgefahren.
31 Jesus [and his disciples] left the region around Tyre [city] and went [north] through Sidon [city], then [toward the east] through the district of the Ten Towns, and then [south] to [the towns near] Lake Galilee.
Und er verließ das Land von Tyrus wieder und begab sich über Sidon mitten in das Gebiet der Dekapolis hinein an das Meer von Galiläa.
32 [There], people brought to him a man who was deaf and who could hardly talk. They begged [Jesus] to lay his hands on him [in order to heal him].
Da brachte man ihm einen Tauben, der zugleich stumm war, und bat ihn, daß er ihm die Hand auflege.
33 [So Jesus] took him away from the crowd [in order that the two of them could be] alone. Then he put [one of] his fingers into [each of] the man’s ears. After he spat [on his fingers], he touched the man’s tongue [with his fingers].
Er nahm ihn aus der Menge weg, abseits, und legte ihm seine Finger in die Ohren, berührte seine Zunge mit Speichel,
34 Then he looked up toward heaven, he sighed [because he was concerned for the man], and then [in his own language] he said to the man’s [ears], “Ephphatha”, which means, “Be opened {Open up}!”.
schaute zum Himmel auf, seufzte und sprach zu ihm: "Effetha!" das heißt: Tu dich auf!
35 At once the man could hear plainly [MTY]. He also began to speak clearly because [what was causing him to be unable to speak] was healed {Jesus healed [what was causing him to be unable to speak]}.
Und sogleich waren ihm die Ohren aufgetan; gelöst war das Band seiner Zunge, und er konnte richtig sprechen.
36 Jesus told ([the people/his friends]) not to tell anyone [what he had done]. But, although he ordered them [and others] repeatedly [not to tell anyone about it], they kept talking about it very much.
Jedoch er verbot ihnen, dies weiter auszusagen; allein je strenger er es ihnen verwehrte, desto weiter machten sie es bekannt.
37 [People who heard about it] were utterly amazed and were saying [enthusiastically], “Everything he has done is wonderful! [Besides doing other amazing things], he enables deaf people to hear! And he enables those who cannot speak to speak!”
Und man staunte über alle Maßen und sagte: "Er macht alles wohl; die Tauben macht er hören und die Stummen reden."
