< Matthew 10 >
1 He told [us] twelve disciples to come to him. Then he gave us the power/authority to expel evil spirits [that controlled people]. He also enabled [us] to heal all people who had diseases or who were sick.
Yesus memanggil kedua belas murid-Nya dan memberi kuasa kepada mereka untuk mengusir roh-roh jahat dan untuk melenyapkan segala penyakit dan segala kelemahan.
2 [Here is a list of us] twelve [disciples whom he called] apostles ([which means ‘messengers’]): Simon, [to whom he gave the new name] Peter; Andrew, Peter’s [younger] brother; James, the son of Zebedee; John, the [younger] brother of James;
Inilah nama kedua belas rasul itu: Pertama Simon yang disebut Petrus dan Andreas saudaranya, dan Yakobus anak Zebedeus dan Yohanes saudaranya,
3 Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; me, Matthew, the tax collector; James, the [son] of Alpheus; Thaddeus;
Filipus dan Bartolomeus, Tomas dan Matius pemungut cukai, Yakobus anak Alfeus, dan Tadeus,
4 Simon, a member of the party [that wanted to overthrow the Roman government; ] and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), who [later] enabled [the Jewish leaders] to seize Jesus.
Simon orang Zelot dan Yudas Iskariot yang mengkhianati Dia.
5 When Jesus was [about to] send [us] twelve [apostles to tell his message to people in various places], he gave [us] these instructions: “Do not go where the non-Jews live [MTY] or into the towns [where the] Samaritans live, [because they hate you].
Kedua belas murid itu diutus oleh Yesus dan Ia berpesan kepada mereka: "Janganlah kamu menyimpang ke jalan bangsa lain atau masuk ke dalam kota orang Samaria,
6 Instead, go to the people of Israel [SYN] who have [gone away from God like] sheep that have gotten lost [MET].
melainkan pergilah kepada domba-domba yang hilang dari umat Israel.
7 When you go [to them], proclaim to them that God [EUP/MTY] will soon begin to rule over people.
Pergilah dan beritakanlah: Kerajaan Sorga sudah dekat.
8 Heal sick people, cause dead people to become alive, heal people who have leprosy, and cause demons to leave people [who are controlled by them] {[whom demons control]}. Do not charge money [for helping people, because God] did not charge you anything [for helping you].
Sembuhkanlah orang sakit; bangkitkanlah orang mati; tahirkanlah orang kusta; usirlah setan-setan. Kamu telah memperolehnya dengan cuma-cuma, karena itu berikanlah pula dengan cuma-cuma.
9 Do not take any money with you [MTY], nor a knapsack. Do not take an extra shirt, nor sandals [in addition to what you are wearing], nor a walking stick. Every worker deserves to get pay [from the people for whom he works], [so you deserve to receive food and a place to stay from the people to whom you go].
Janganlah kamu membawa emas atau perak atau tembaga dalam ikat pinggangmu.
Janganlah kamu membawa bekal dalam perjalanan, janganlah kamu membawa baju dua helai, kasut atau tongkat, sebab seorang pekerja patut mendapat upahnya.
11 In whatever town or village you enter, find out which person is worthy [that you should stay in his home]. And as you go into that house, [ask God to] bless the people [who live there] [MTY]. Stay in that home until you leave [that town or village].
Apabila kamu masuk kota atau desa, carilah di situ seorang yang layak dan tinggallah padanya sampai kamu berangkat.
Apabila kamu masuk rumah orang, berilah salam kepada mereka.
13 If the people who live in [MTY] that house are worthy [of being blessed] {[God blessing them]}, [God] will bless them. If the people who live in that house are not worthy [of being blessed] {[of God blessing them]}, [God] will bless you [instead of blessing them].
Jika mereka layak menerimanya, salammu itu turun ke atasnya, jika tidak, salammu itu kembali kepadamu.
14 If the people [who live in any house or town] do not welcome you [to their home or town], nor listen to your message, leave that house or town. And as you leave, shake off the dust from your feet. [By doing that, you will warn them that God will punish them for rejecting your message].
Dan apabila seorang tidak menerima kamu dan tidak mendengar perkataanmu, keluarlah dan tinggalkanlah rumah atau kota itu dan kebaskanlah debunya dari kakimu.
15 Note this carefully: [At the time when God] judges [all people, he] will punish [the people who lived in] Sodom and Gomorrah [MTY], [the ancient cities which God destroyed because their people were extremely wicked]. But in any town where the people [MTY] refuse to hear your message, God will punish them even more severely.”
Aku berkata kepadamu: Sesungguhnya pada hari penghakiman tanah Sodom dan Gomora akan lebih ringan tanggungannya dari pada kota itu."
16 “Take note: After I send you out, [you will be as defenseless] as sheep [MET] in the midst of [people who are as dangerous as] wolves. So you should wisely [stay away from such people, like you stay away from poisonous] snakes [SIM]. You should be as harmless as doves are [SIM].
"Lihat, Aku mengutus kamu seperti domba ke tengah-tengah serigala, sebab itu hendaklah kamu cerdik seperti ular dan tulus seperti merpati.
17 Also, be on guard against [our religious leaders]. They will arrest you and take you to the members of the religious councils [to put you on trial and punish you because you are my disciples]. You will be whipped {The local leaders will whip you} [in] their meeting places.
Tetapi waspadalah terhadap semua orang; karena ada yang akan menyerahkan kamu kepada majelis agama dan mereka akan menyesah kamu di rumah ibadatnya.
18 [And] because [you teach] about me, you will be taken {[the religious leaders] will take you} to governors and kings [in order that they may put you on trial and punish you]. As a result, you will testify to those rulers and to [other] non-Jews [about what I have done].
Dan karena Aku, kamu akan digiring ke muka penguasa-penguasa dan raja-raja sebagai suatu kesaksian bagi mereka dan bagi orang-orang yang tidak mengenal Allah.
19 When [the religious leaders] arrest you, do not be worried about what you will say [to them], because at that very time [the] Holy Spirit will tell you the words that you should say.
Apabila mereka menyerahkan kamu, janganlah kamu kuatir akan bagaimana dan akan apa yang harus kamu katakan, karena semuanya itu akan dikaruniakan kepadamu pada saat itu juga.
20 It is not that you [will decide what to] say. Instead, you will say what the Spirit of your [heavenly] Father tells [you to say].
Karena bukan kamu yang berkata-kata, melainkan Roh Bapamu; Dia yang akan berkata-kata di dalam kamu.
21 [You will be taken] {[People who do not believe in me will] take you} to the authorities to be killed [because you believe in me. For example], people will betray their brothers, and fathers will betray their children. Children will rebel against their parents and cause [them] to be killed.
Orang akan menyerahkan saudaranya untuk dibunuh, demikian juga seorang ayah akan anaknya. Dan anak-anak akan memberontak terhadap orang tuanya dan akan membunuh mereka.
22 Many people will hate you [because you believe in me]. Nevertheless, [many people] will keep on believing in me until they die. They are the people whom [God] will take to live with him.
Dan kamu akan dibenci semua orang oleh karena nama-Ku; tetapi orang yang bertahan sampai pada kesudahannya akan selamat.
23 When people in one town cause you to suffer, escape to another town [and tell the people there about me]. Note this: [I], the one who came down from heaven, will certainly return [to earth] before you have finished going from one town to another town throughout Israel [and telling people about me].
Apabila mereka menganiaya kamu dalam kota yang satu, larilah ke kota yang lain; karena Aku berkata kepadamu: Sesungguhnya sebelum kamu selesai mengunjungi kota-kota Israel, Anak Manusia sudah datang.
24 A disciple should not [expect to be] greater than his teacher, and servants [are not] superior to their master.
Seorang murid tidak lebih dari pada gurunya, atau seorang hamba dari pada tuannya.
25 You do not [expect that] people will [treat] a disciple better than [they treat] his teacher, or that [they will treat] a servant [better than they treat] his master. [Similarly, because I am your teacher and master, you can expect that people will mistreat you, because they have mistreated me]. The most you can expect is that people [will treat you like they treat me. I am like] the ruler of a household [MET]. But people [have insulted me by] calling [me] Beelzebub, [the ruler of the demons]. So they [will] certainly [insult you more, you who are only like] members of my household [MET]!”
Cukuplah bagi seorang murid jika ia menjadi sama seperti gurunya dan bagi seorang hamba jika ia menjadi sama seperti tuannya. Jika tuan rumah disebut Beelzebul, apalagi seisi rumahnya.
26 “Do not be afraid of [people who insult you and do evil things to you. God wants] everything that is unknown now to be revealed {[God wants you to] reveal everything [that is unknown now]}. [He does] not [want his truth] to remain hidden [MET] and kept secret [DOU].
Jadi janganlah kamu takut terhadap mereka, karena tidak ada sesuatupun yang tertutup yang tidak akan dibuka dan tidak ada sesuatupun yang tersembunyi yang tidak akan diketahui.
27 [So, instead of being afraid], what I say to you [secretly as people do] at night [MTY], tell [publicly as people do] during the daytime [MTY]. What I [say to you privately as people do when they] whisper to you [MTY], proclaim publicly [MTY, DOU].
Apa yang Kukatakan kepadamu dalam gelap, katakanlah itu dalam terang; dan apa yang dibisikkan ke telingamu, beritakanlah itu dari atas atap rumah.
28 Do not be afraid of people who [are able to] kill your body [SYN] but are not able to destroy your soul. Instead, fear [God because] he is able to destroy both a [person’s] body and a [person’s] soul in hell. (Geenna )
Dan janganlah kamu takut kepada mereka yang dapat membunuh tubuh, tetapi yang tidak berkuasa membunuh jiwa; takutlah terutama kepada Dia yang berkuasa membinasakan baik jiwa maupun tubuh di dalam neraka. (Geenna )
29 [Think about the] sparrows. [They have so little value] that [you] can buy cares two of them for [only] one small coin [RHQ]. But when [any] sparrow falls to the ground [and dies] [LIT], [God], your [heavenly] Father, knows it, [because he cares about everything].
Bukankah burung pipit dijual dua ekor seduit? Namun seekorpun dari padanya tidak akan jatuh ke bumi di luar kehendak Bapamu.
30 [He cares about you, too]. He even knows how many hairs you have on your head!
Dan kamu, rambut kepalamupun terhitung semuanya.
31 [God] values you much more than he values sparrows [LIT]. So, do not be afraid [of people who threaten to kill you]
Sebab itu janganlah kamu takut, karena kamu lebih berharga dari pada banyak burung pipit.
32 If people, [without being afraid, are willing to] tell others [that they are my disciples], I will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven [that they are my disciples].
Setiap orang yang mengakui Aku di depan manusia, Aku juga akan mengakuinya di depan Bapa-Ku yang di sorga.
33 But if they are afraid to say in front of others that they are my [disciples], I will tell my Father, who is in heaven, [that] they are not [my disciples].”
Tetapi barangsiapa menyangkal Aku di depan manusia, Aku juga akan menyangkalnya di depan Bapa-Ku yang di sorga."
34 “Do not think that I came to earth to cause [people] to live together harmoniously. The result of my coming is that [some of those who follow me] [MTY] will be killed.
"Jangan kamu menyangka, bahwa Aku datang untuk membawa damai di atas bumi; Aku datang bukan untuk membawa damai, melainkan pedang.
35 Because I came [to earth, people who do not believe in me] will oppose [those who do believe in me. For example], some sons will oppose their fathers, some daughters will oppose their mothers, and some daughters-in-law will oppose their mothers-in-law.
Sebab Aku datang untuk memisahkan orang dari ayahnya, anak perempuan dari ibunya, menantu perempuan dari ibu mertuanya,
36 [This shows that sometimes] a person’s enemies will be members of his own household.
dan musuh orang ialah orang-orang seisi rumahnya.
37 People who love their fathers or mothers more than [they love] me are not worthy to [have a relationship with me]. And people who love their sons or daughters more than [they love] me are not worthy [to belong to] me.
Barangsiapa mengasihi bapa atau ibunya lebih dari pada-Ku, ia tidak layak bagi-Ku; dan barangsiapa mengasihi anaknya laki-laki atau perempuan lebih dari pada-Ku, ia tidak layak bagi-Ku.
38 [People who are ready to execute a prisoner force him to] carry a cross [to the place where they will nail him to it] [MET]. Those who are not [willing to allow other people to hurt and disgrace them like that because of being my disciples] are not worthy to belong to me.
Barangsiapa tidak memikul salibnya dan mengikut Aku, ia tidak layak bagi-Ku.
39 People who [deny that they believe in me in order to escape being killed] will not live [with God eternally] [MET], but people who [confess that they believe in] me and, [as a result are] killed, will live [with God eternally] [MET].”
Barangsiapa mempertahankan nyawanya, ia akan kehilangan nyawanya, dan barangsiapa kehilangan nyawanya karena Aku, ia akan memperolehnya.
40 “[God considers that] everyone who welcomes you, welcomes me [SIM], and [he considers that] everyone who welcomes me welcomes [him], the one who sent me [SIM].
Barangsiapa menyambut kamu, ia menyambut Aku, dan barangsiapa menyambut Aku, ia menyambut Dia yang mengutus Aku.
41 Those who welcome [someone because] [MTY] [they know] that person is a prophet they will receive the [same] reward that prophets [receive from God. Likewise], those who welcome a person [because] [MTY] [they know] that person is righteous will receive the reward righteous people [receive from God].
Barangsiapa menyambut seorang nabi sebagai nabi, ia akan menerima upah nabi, dan barangsiapa menyambut seorang benar sebagai orang benar, ia akan menerima upah orang benar.
42 [Note this: ] people [see that you are thirsty] [MTY] [and] give you a drink of cold water because they know that [MTY] you are one of my disciples. [God] will certainly reward people who do that. [They might consider that what they did] is insignificant, [but God will consider it very significant]” [LIT].
Dan barangsiapa memberi air sejuk secangkir sajapun kepada salah seorang yang kecil ini, karena ia murid-Ku, Aku berkata kepadamu: Sesungguhnya ia tidak akan kehilangan upahnya dari padanya."
