Mark 9
1 He also said to [his disciples], “Listen carefully! Some of you who are here now will see God ruling powerfully in [many ways]. You will see it before you die!”
Někteří z vás, jak tu stojíte, se ještě dočkají mocných projevů Božího království.“
2 A week later Jesus took Peter, James and [James’ younger brother] John and led them up a high mountain. [While they were] alone up there, he appeared very different to them.
Po šesti dnech vzal s sebou Ježíš Petra, Jakuba a Jana a vystoupili na vršek hory. Tam, daleko od lidí, se před očima učedníků stala s Ježíšem zvláštní proměna.
3 His clothes became dazzling white. They were whiter than anyone on earth could make them by bleaching them.
Jeho tvář ozářila nadpozemská sláva a oděv se skvěl oslnivou bělostí, nedosažitelnou lidskými prostředky. Tu uviděli dva muže, jak s Ježíšem rozmlouvají;
4 [Two prophets who had lived long ago], Moses and Elijah, appeared to them. Then the two of them began talking with Jesus.
byli to Elijáš a Mojžíš.
5 [After a short time], Peter [interrupted by] exclaiming, “Teacher, it is wonderful to be here! So allow us to make three shelters. One [will be] for you, one [will be] for Moses, and one [will be] for Elijah!”
Petr zvolal: „Mistře, jak je dobře, žes nás vzal s sebou! Hned vám třem postavíme přístřeší.“
6 [He said this] because [he wanted to say something, but] he did not know what to say, because he and the other [two disciples] were very awestruck.
Ani si vzrušením neuvědomoval, co říká; tak byli tím viděním vyvedeni z míry.
7 Then a [shining] cloud appeared that covered them. [God] [EUP] spoke to them from the cloud saying, “This is my Son. I love him. [Therefore], listen to him!”
Vtom je všechny zahalil oblak a z něho se ozval hlas: „Toto je můj milovaný Syn, toho poslouchejte!“
8 When [the three disciples] looked around, they saw that suddenly Jesus was alone with them, and that there was no longer anyone [else] there.
Když se mrak rozplynul, učedníci se rozhlédli, ale kromě Ježíše už nikoho neviděli.
9 While they were coming down the mountain, Jesus told them that they should not tell anyone [yet] what had just happened to him. He said, “You may tell them after I, the one who came from heaven, (rise from the dead/become alive again) after I die.”
Cestou dolů jim Ježíš přikázal, aby o té události nikomu nevyprávěli dříve, než vstane z mrtvých.
10 So they did not tell others about it [for a long time]. But they discussed among themselves what it meant when he said that he would (rise from the dead/become alive again) after he died.
Slíbili, že o tom zatím budou mlčet, ale vůbec nechápali, co myslel tím, že „vstane z mrtvých“.
11 [The three disciples had just seen Elijah, but Elijah had not done anything to prepare people to accept Jesus. So] they asked Jesus, “The men who teach the [Jewish] laws say that Elijah must come back to the earth before [the Messiah comes to earth. But you have been here a long time and Elijah came just today. So is what they are teaching wrong?]”
„Proč učitelé zákona říkají, že dříve než Kristus musí znovu přijít prorok Elijáš?“otázali se Ježíše.
12 [Jesus wanted them to know that John the Baptizer was the one who represented Elijah. So] he answered them, “It is true that [God promised to send Elijah to come] first [so that people would be ready when I came]. Elijah’s representative has already come, and our leaders treated him very badly, just like they wanted to do, just like it was prophesied {[the prophets] prophesied} long ago. But, (I also want you to consider what is written {what [the prophets] wrote} in the Scriptures about me, the one who came from heaven./why have you not thought about what is written {what [the prophets] wrote} about me, the one who came from heaven?) [RHQ] It is written {They wrote} that I would suffer much and that I would be rejected {that [many people] would reject me}.”
„Ano, nejprve měl přijít Elijáš, aby dal vše do pořádku. A on také přišel a připravil mi cestu. Ovšem, jak je v Bibli předpověděno, naložili s ním, jak se jim zlíbilo. Ale všimněte si, že Písmo hovoří také o Synu člověka, jak musí velmi trpět a upadnout do opovržení.“
14 [Jesus and those three disciples] returned to where the [other] disciples were. They saw a large crowd around the other disciples and [some] men who taught the [Jewish] laws arguing with them.
Když sestoupili k ostatním učedníkům, našli je obklopené množstvím lidí; mezi nimi byli i učitelé zákona, kteří se s učedníky o něčem dohadovali.
15 As soon as the crowd saw Jesus, they were very surprised [to see him come]. So they ran to him and greeted him.
Když však uviděli Ježíše, uctivě ztichli a šli mu naproti, aby ho uvítali.
16 He asked them, “What are you arguing about?”
„O čem se dohadujete?“zeptal se jich.
17 A man in the crowd answered him, “Teacher, I brought my son [here in order that] you [would heal him]. There is an evil spirit in him [that makes him] unable to talk.
Z davu vystoupil jeden muž: „Mistře, přivedl jsem k tobě svého syna; je posedlý démonem, který ho připravuje o řeč i sluch.
18 Whenever the spirit attacks him, it throws him down. He foams at the mouth, he grinds his teeth together, and he becomes stiff. I asked your disciples to expel the spirit, but they were not able to do it.”
Kdykoliv se ho ten duch zmocní, svíjí se v křeči, skřípe zuby, z úst mu jde pěna a upadá do bezvědomí. Žádal jsem tvé učedníky, aby ho od toho osvobodili, ale nedokázali to.“
19 Jesus replied by saying to those people, “(I am very disappointed that [although you] have observed how I help people, you do not believe [that you are able to do anything]!/Why is it that [although you] have observed how I help people, you do not believe [that you are able to do anything]?) [RHQ] (I have been with you a long time, [and you still cannot do what I do]!/How long do I have to be with you [before you can do what I do]?) [RHQ] Bring the boy to me!”
„Ach, vy lidé, “zvolal Ježíš, „jak dlouho bude trvat, než uvěříte? Jak dlouho vás budu ještě snášet a mít s vámi trpělivost? Přiveďte toho hocha ke mně!“
20 So they brought the boy to Jesus. As soon as the evil spirit saw Jesus, it shook the boy severely, and [the boy] fell on the ground. He rolled around, and he foamed at the mouth.
Šli pro něj. Sotva se s však přiblížil k Ježíšovi, chlapec se svalil na zem a svíjel se s pěnou u úst.
21 Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has he been like this?” He replied, “[This started to happen] when he was a child.
„Jak dlouho tím trpí?“otázal se Ježíš otce. „Už od malička.
22 [The spirit does not only do this], but he also often throws him into the fire or into the water in order to kill him. But, pity us and help us, if you can!”
Často byl ve smrtelném nebezpečí, protože ten démon jím smýkal do ohně i do vody. Jestliže je to možné, slituj se a pomoz!“
23 Jesus exclaimed to him, “[Do not say] [RHQ] ‘If you can’, for [God/I] can do anything for people who believe [in him/me]!”
„Jestli je to možné?“podivil se Ježíš. „Všechno je možné pro toho, kdo věří.“
24 Immediately the child’s father shouted, “I believe [that you can help me, but I do not believe strongly]. Help me to believe more strongly!”
„Věřím, Pane, ale pomoz mi věřit víc!“zvolal otec se slzami v očích:
25 Because [Jesus wanted to heal the boy before] the crowd got bigger, he rebuked the evil spirit, saying, “You evil spirit, you who are [causing this boy to be] deaf and unable to talk! I command you to come out of him and never enter him again!”
Ježíš si všiml, že se sbíhají další lidé, a tak přikázal: „Duchu, který ovládáš jeho smysly, vyjdi z něho – jednou provždy!“
26 The evil spirit shouted, it shook the boy violently, and then it left the boy. The boy did not move. He seemed like a dead body. So many of the people there said, “He is dead!”
Mladík vykřikl, ještě jednou se zkroutil křečí a pak ztichl. Démon ho opustil. Hoch však zůstal ležet bez známek života. Davem proběhl šepot, že je mrtvý.
27 However, Jesus took him by the hand and helped him get up. Then the boy stood up. [He was healed]!
Ale Ježíš ho vzal za ruku, zvedl jej a on se postavil.
28 Later, when Jesus and his disciples were alone in a house, one of them asked him, “Why were we not able to expel [the evil spirit]?”
Když pak Ježíš vešel do domu a jeho učedníci s ním byli sami, zeptali se ho: „Proč jsme toho démona nemohli vyhnat my?“
29 He said to them, “You can expel this kind [of evil spirit] only by your praying [that God will give you the power to do it]. There is no other way that you can expel them.”
„Zde pomůže jen modlitba a půst, “odpověděl jim.
30 After [Jesus and his disciples] left that [district], they traveled through Galilee [district]. Jesus did not want anyone [else] to know [that he was in their area]; he did not want
Když se odtamtud vydali na další cestu, procházeli Galileou, ale Ježíš si nepřál, aby se o něm lidé dozvěděli.
31 [anyone to interrupt him] as he taught his disciples. He was telling them, “[Some day my enemies] [SYN] will seize [MTY] me, the one who came from heaven, and I will be handed over [to other] men. Those men will kill me. But on the third day after I am killed {after they kill me}, I will become alive again!”
Chtěl mít čas pro své učedníky. Znovu je připravoval na to, že Syn člověka – totiž on sám – bude vydán na pospas lidem, kteří ho zabijí. Ale třetí den po smrti zase vstane k životu.
32 But they did not understand what he was telling them. Also, they were afraid to ask him about what he had said.
Oni tomu sice stále nerozuměli, styděli se však zeptat se ho.
33 Jesus and his disciples returned to Capernaum [town]. When they were in the house, he asked them, “What were you discussing [while we were traveling] on the road?”
Potom se vrátili do Ježíšova příbytku v Kafarnaum. Tam se Ježíš zeptal svých učedníků, o čem se to cestou dohadovali.
34 But they did not reply. [They were ashamed to reply] because, [while they were traveling], they had been arguing with each other about which one of them [would be] the most important [when Jesus became king].
Oni však mlčeli. Přeli se totiž, kdo z nich je významnější.
35 He sat down, he summoned the twelve disciples [to come close to him], and then he said to them, “If anyone wants [God to consider him] to be the most important person of all, he must [consider himself] to be the least important person of all, and he must serve everyone [else].”
Ježíš se posadil a shromáždil je kolem sebe. „Kdo chce být na prvním místě u mne, bude u lidí jako ten poslední a všem bude sloužit, “řekl.
36 Then he took a child and placed him among them. He took the child in his arms and then he said to them,
Pak k sobě zavolal malé děcko a vzal je před nimi do náruče se slovy:
37 “Those who, [because they love] me, welcome a child like this one, [God considers that] they are welcoming me. So [it is as though] they are also welcoming [God], who sent me.”
„Kdo se zastane takového dítěte a přijme ho v mém jménu, přijímá mne. Nepřijímá však jenom mne, ale i toho, který mne poslal.“
38 John said to Jesus, “Teacher, we saw someone who was expelling demons, ([claiming he had] authority from you [to do that/while telling people] that you [have told him to do it]). So we told him to stop doing it because he was not one of us [disciples].”
„Mistře, “hlásil mu Jan, „viděli jsme člověka, který tvým jménem vyhání démony, a nebyl to nikdo z našich. Zakázali jsme mu to, když mezi nás nepatří.“
39 Jesus said, “Do not tell him [not to do that]! For no one will speak evilly about me just after he performs a miracle while saying that I [have told him to do it].
„Neměli jste mu bránit, “odpověděl Ježíš. „Vždyť přece žádný, kdo v mém jménu učiní zázrak, nemůže se hned po tom obrátit proti mně.
40 Furthermore, those who are not opposing us are trying to [achieve the same goals that] we are.
Kdo není proti nám, je s námi.
41 Also think about this: Those [who belong to me who help you in any way, even] if they [just] give you a cup of water to drink because you follow [me], the Messiah, will certainly be rewarded [by God]!”
A kdyby vám někdo podal sklenici vody jen proto, že jste moji – říkám vám, nepřijde o svou odměnu.
42 [Jesus also said], “But if you cause someone who believes in me to sin, [God will severely punish you], even if that person is [socially unimportant like] this little child. If someone tied a heavy stone around your neck and you were thrown {and threw you} into the sea, [you would consider that was a severe punishment. But God will punish you more severely] than that [if you cause a person who believes in me to sin].
Kdo by však připravil o víru někoho, kdo mi důvěřuje jako toto dítě, lépe by mu bylo uvázat mlýnský kámen na krk a hodit ho do moře.
43 [So], if you are [wanting to use one of] [MTY, PRS] [your hands to sin, stop using your hand! Even if you have to] cut your hand off and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good that you not sin and that you live eternally, [even though you lack one of] your hands [while you are here on earth]. But it is not good that you sin and as a result God throws your whole body into hell. There the fires never go out! (Geenna g1067)
Svádí-li tě tvá ruka k činění zla, utni ji! Je pro tebe rozhodně lépe být bez ruky a mít jistotu, že budeš žít věčně, než mít obě ruce a jít do neuhasitelného ohně, odkud není vysvobození. (Geenna g1067)
45 If you are [wanting to use] one of [PRS] your feet to sin, [stop using your foot! Even if you have to] cut off your foot [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good that you not sin and live eternally, [even though] you lack one of your feet [while you are here on earth]. But it is not good that you sin and go to hell. (Geenna g1067)
Podobně – svádí-li tě ke zlému tvá noha, zbav se jí. Je lépe být chromý a mít jistý věčný život, než s oběma nohama navěky zahynout. (Geenna g1067)
47 If because of what you see [MTY, PRS] you are tempted to sin, [stop looking at those things]! Even if you have to gouge out your eye and throw it away [HYP] [to avoid sinning, do it! It is good that you not sin and live eternally, even though you lack one of] your eyes [while you are here on earth]. But it is not good that you sin and, as a result, God puts your whole body in hell. (Geenna g1067)
A tak i oko: je-li původcem zla ve tvém životě, zbav se ho. Lépe je vejít do Božího království jednooký, než s oběma očima do věčného zahynutí. (Geenna g1067)
48 In that place people suffer forever and the fires are never put out {never go out}.”
49 “[You must endure difficulties in order that God will be pleased with you. Your difficulties are like] a fire [that makes things pure] [MET]. [Your enduring is also like] [MET] salt being put [on] {people putting salt on their} [sacrifices to make them pure].
Ke každé oběti patří sůl.
50 Salt is useful [to put on food], but you cannot [RHQ] make salt to taste salty again if it becomes flavorless [MET]. Similarly, you must remain useful to God, [because no one can make you useful to God again if you become useless]. You must also live peacefully with each other.”
Sůl je dobrá věc. Ztratí-li však svou chuť a schopnost bránit rozkladu, čím ji nahradíte? Nebraňte se proto zkouškám a držte spolu.“
