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!”
| عیسی به شاگردان خود فرمود: «یقین بدانید که در اینجا کسانی ایستاده‌اند که تا آمدن قدرتمند ملکوت خدا را نبینند، نخواهند مرد.» |
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.
| شش روز بعد، عیسی پطرس و یعقوب و یوحنا را برداشت و آنان را بر فراز کوهی بلند، به خلوت برد. در آنجا، ظاهر عیسی در مقابل چشمان ایشان دگرگون شد |
3 His clothes became dazzling white. They were whiter than anyone on earth could make them by bleaching them.
| و لباسش درخشان و بسیار سفید شد، چنانکه هیچ‌کس بر روی زمین نمی‌تواند لباسی را آنقدر سفید بشوید. |
4 [Two prophets who had lived long ago], Moses and Elijah, appeared to them. Then the two of them began talking with Jesus.
| آنگاه ایلیا و موسی ظاهر شدند و با عیسی به گفتگو پرداختند. |
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!”
| پطرس شگفت‌زده گفت: «استاد، چه خوب است ما اینجا هستیم! بگذار سه سایبان بسازیم، یکی برای تو، یکی برای موسی، و یکی دیگر هم برای ایلیا.» |
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.
| پطرس این حرف را زد تا چیزی گفته باشد، چون نمی‌دانست چه بگوید و همه از ترس می‌لرزیدند. |
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!”
| اما در همان حال، ابری بالای سرشان سایه افکند و ندایی از آن در رسید که «این است پسر عزیز من؛ به او گوش فرا دهید.» |
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.
| ایشان بلافاصله به اطراف نگاه کردند، ولی جز عیسی کسی را ندیدند. |
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.”
| هنگامی که از کوه پایین می‌آمدند، عیسی به ایشان دستور داد تا دربارۀ آنچه دیده‌اند به کسی چیزی نگویند تا زمانی که پسر انسان پس از مرگ زنده شود. |
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.
| آنان نیز اطاعت نمودند، ولی اغلب دربارهٔ آن ماجرا با یکدیگر گفتگو می‌کردند و در این فکر بودند که منظور عیسی از «زنده شدن» چه بوده است. |
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?]”
| سپس از عیسی پرسیدند: «چرا علمای دین یهود اصرار دارند که قبل از ظهور مسیح، ایلیای نبی باید دوباره ظهور کند؟» |
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}.”
| عیسی پاسخ داد: «البته که اول ایلیا می‌آید تا همه چیز را آماده کند. ولی در مورد پسر انسان، در کتب مقدّس چه نوشته شده است؟ نوشته شده که او عذاب خواهد کشید، و با خفت و خواری با او رفتار خواهند کرد. |
| اما من به شما می‌گویم، همان‌طور که نوشته شده، ایلیا آمده است، و با او بسیار بدرفتاری کردند.» |
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.
| وقتی نزد بقیۀ شاگردان رسیدند، دیدند عدهٔ زیادی دور آنها جمع شده‌اند و چند تن از علمای دین نیز با ایشان بحث و گفتگو می‌کنند. |
15 As soon as the crowd saw Jesus, they were very surprised [to see him come]. So they ran to him and greeted him.
| جماعت به‌مجرد اینکه عیسی را دیدند، غرق در حیرت شدند، و شتابان دویدند تا او را تحیّت گویند. |
16 He asked them, “What are you arguing about?”
| عیسی پرسید: «دربارهٔ چه بحث می‌کنید؟» |
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.
| مردی از آن میان جواب داد: «استاد، پسرم را به اینجا آوردم تا او را شفا دهید. او نمی‌تواند حرف بزند چون اسیر یک روح پلید است. |
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.”
| هرگاه روح پلید پسرم را می‌گیرد، او را بر زمین می‌کوبد و دهانش کف می‌کند و دندانهایش به هم می‌خورند و بدنش مثل چوب خشک می‌شود. از شاگردانت خواهش کردم روح پلید را از او بیرون کنند، ولی نتوانستند.» |
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!”
| عیسی فرمود: «ای مردم بی‌ایمان! تا کی رفتار شما را تحمل کنم؟ او را نزد من بیاورید.» |
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.
| پس او را آوردند؛ اما به محض اینکه چشمش به عیسی افتاد، روح پلید او را تکان سختی داد و بر زمین زد. پسر می‌غلتید و دهانش کف می‌کرد. |
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.
| عیسی از پدر او پرسید: «از کی چنین شده است؟» جواب داد: «از کودکی. |
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!”
| روح پلید بارها او را در آب و آتش انداخته تا نابودش کند. به ما رحم کن و اگر می‌توانی او را شفا بده.» |
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]!”
| عیسی فرمود: «اگر می‌توانم؟! اگر ایمان داشته باشی همه چیز برایت امکان خواهد داشت.» |
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!”
| پدر فوری با صدای بلند جواب داد: «بلی، ایمان دارم؛ کمکم کن تا ایمانم بیشتر شود.» |
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!”
| چون عیسی دید جمعیت زیادتر می‌شود، به روح پلید نهیب زده، گفت: «ای روح کر و لال، به تو می‌گویم از این پسر بیرون برو و دیگر داخل او نشو!» |
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!”
| روح پلید نعره‌ای زد و بار دیگر پسر را تکان داد و از او خارج شد. پسر غش کرد و مانند مرده بی‌حرکت بر زمین افتاد. مردم به یکدیگر گفتند: «مُرد!» |
27 However, Jesus took him by the hand and helped him get up. Then the boy stood up. [He was healed]!
| اما عیسی دست او را گرفت و بلند کرد. پسر، صحیح و سالم بر پاهای خود ایستاد. |
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]?”
| بعداً وقتی عیسی در خانه تنها بود، شاگردانش در خلوت از او پرسیدند: «چرا ما نتوانستیم روح پلید را از وجود پسر بیرون کنیم؟» |
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.”
| عیسی فرمود: «این نوع روح پلید جز با دعا بیرون نمی‌رود.» |
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
| عیسی از آنجا به جلیل رفت و سعی کرد از نظر مردم دور بماند، |
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!”
| تا بتواند وقت بیشتری را با شاگردانش صرف کند و ایشان را تعلیم دهد. او به ایشان می‌گفت: «پسر انسان را به دست مردم تسلیم خواهند کرد و او را خواهند کشت. اما پس از سه روز زنده خواهد شد.» |
32 But they did not understand what he was telling them. Also, they were afraid to ask him about what he had said.
| ولی منظور او را نفهمیدند و می‌ترسیدند بپرسند. |
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?”
| سپس به کَفَرناحوم رسیدند. وقتی به خانه‌ای وارد شدند که بنا بود در آنجا بمانند، عیسی از ایشان پرسید: «در بین راه با هم چه می‌گفتید؟» |
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].
| ایشان خجالت می‌کشیدند جواب دهند، زیرا در بین راه بحث و گفتگو می‌کردند که کدام یک از ایشان از همه بزرگتر است. |
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].”
| پس عیسی نشست و آنها را دور خود جمع کرد و گفت: «هر که می‌خواهد اول باشد، باید آخر همه و خدمتگزار همه باشد.» |
36 Then he took a child and placed him among them. He took the child in his arms and then he said to them,
| سپس کودکی را به میان آورد و او را در آغوش گرفت و گفت: |
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.”
| «هر که به خاطر من چنین کودکی را بپذیرد، در واقع مرا پذیرفته است، و هر که مرا بپذیرد، نه فقط مرا، بلکه فرستندۀ مرا نیز پذیرفته است.» |
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].”
| یوحنا، به او گفت: «استاد، مردی را دیدیم که به نام تو ارواح پلید را از مردم بیرون می‌کرد؛ ولی ما به او گفتیم که این کار را نکند چون از گروه ما نبود.» |
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].
| عیسی فرمود: «مانع او نشوید، چون کسی که به اسم من معجزه‌ای می‌کند، مخالف من نیست. |
40 Furthermore, those who are not opposing us are trying to [achieve the same goals that] we are.
| کسی که بر ضد ما نیست، با ما است. |
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]!”
| اگر کسی به شما حتی یک لیوان آب بدهد، فقط به خاطر اینکه به مسیح تعلق دارید، بدون شک بی‌پاداش نخواهد ماند. |
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].
| ولی اگر کسی باعث شود یکی از این کودکان که به من ایمان دارند، ایمانش را از دست بدهد، برای او بهتر است که یک سنگ بزرگ دور گردنش آویخته و به دریا انداخته شود. |
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)
| «اگر دستت باعث لغزش تو می‌شود، آن را قطع کن، زیرا بهتر است با یک دست به حیات وارد شوی، تا اینکه با دو دست به دوزخ بروی، جایی که آتش آن هرگز خاموش نمی‌شود. (Geenna g1067) |
| جایی که کِرم آنها نمی‌میرد و آتش خاموشی نمی‌پذیرد. |
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)
| و اگر پایت باعث لغزش تو می‌شود، آن را قطع کن و دور انداز، زیرا بهتر است با یک پا به حیات وارد شوی، تا اینکه با دو پا به دوزخ انداخته شوی. (Geenna g1067) |
| جایی که کِرم آنها نمی‌میرد و آتش خاموشی نمی‌پذیرد. |
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)
| «اگر چشمت باعث لغزش تو می‌گردد، آن را از حدقه درآور، زیرا بهتر است با یک چشم وارد ملکوت خدا شوی تا اینکه با دو چشم به دوزخ انداخته شوی. (Geenna g1067) |
48 In that place people suffer forever and the fires are never put out {never go out}.”
| جایی که کرمهای بدن‌خوار هرگز نمی‌میرند و آتش، هیچگاه خاموش نمی‌شود. |
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].
| «زیرا هر کس با آتش نمکین و آزموده خواهد شد. |
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.”
| «نمک خوب است، اما اگر طعم و خاصیتش را از دست بدهد، چگونه می‌توان طعم و خاصیتش را به آن برگرداند؟ پس شما نیز در میان خود خاصیت نمک را داشته باشید و با هم در صلح و صفا زندگی کنید.» |
