< Matthew 12 >

1 During that period of time, on a (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), Jesus [and we] disciples were walking through some grain fields. And because we were hungry, we began to pick some of the heads of grain and eat them. [The laws of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
В то время проходил Иисус в субботу засеянными полями; ученики же Его взалкали и начали срывать колосья и есть.
2 Some Pharisees saw us [do what they considered to be work]. So they said to Jesus, [accusing him], “Look! Your disciples are doing [work] that is not permitted [in our] laws [PRS] [for us] to do on our day of rest!”
Фарисеи, увидев это, сказали Ему: вот, ученики Твои делают, чего не должно делать в субботу.
3 [Jesus wanted to show them that the record in the Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. [So] he said to them, “[It is written] {[Someone wrote]} [in the Scriptures] [RHQ] what [our revered ancestor King] David did when he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, ([but you do not think about what it implies!/so why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
Он же сказал им: разве вы не читали, что сделал Давид, когда взалкал сам и бывшие с ним?
4 David entered the big tent [where they worshipped] God [and asked for some food. The high priest gave him] the bread that had been {they had} presented [to God]. According to the laws [of Moses], only priests were permitted to eat that bread, but David and the men who were with him ate it. And [God did not consider that what they did was wrong]
как он вошел в дом Божий и ел хлебы предложения, которых не должно было есть ни ему, ни бывшим с ним, а только одним священникам?
5 Also, think about the laws that [Moses wrote] [RHQ]. He said that [even though] the priests, [by working] in the Temple on our Jewish day of rest, are not obeying the Jewish day of rest [laws], they are not guilty. You have surely read that, [but you do not understand what it means].
Или не читали ли вы в законе, что в субботы священники в храме нарушают субботу, однако невиновны?
6 Note this: [God allows men to work in] the Temple [on our rest day because that work must be done. But in addition, I] tell you that [I have] more [authority than the authority of] the Temple. So, it is more important for you to obey my teachings than to obey your traditions about our rest day.
Но говорю вам, что здесь Тот, Кто больше храма;
7 [You should think about] these words [of God in the Scriptures]: ‘I want you to [act] mercifully toward people, and not [just] offer sacrifices.’ If you understood what that means, you would not condemn [my disciples], who have done no wrong.
если бы вы знали, что значит: милости хочу, а не жертвы, то не осудили бы невиновных,
8 [And I want you to know that] I, the one who came from heaven, have [the] authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do on] the days of rest.”
ибо Сын Человеческий есть Господин и субботы.
9 After Jesus left there [that day], he went into a building where we Jews worship God.
И, отойдя оттуда, вошел Он в синагогу их.
10 [He saw] a man with a shriveled hand there. [The Pharisees thought that Jesus would be disobeying the tradition about not working on the day of rest if he healed the man, so one of] them asked him, “Does [God] permit [us] to heal [people] on our day of rest?” [They asked that question] so that they might accuse him [if he healed someone] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day).
И вот, там был человек, имеющий сухую руку. И спросили Иисуса, чтобы обвинить Его: можно ли исцелять в субботы?
11 He replied to them, “Would anyone among you who has [only] one sheep that falls into a hole (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) [just leave it there] [RHQ]? [Certainly not]! You would take hold of it and lift it out right away, [and that would be acceptable work on our day of rest, too]
Он же сказал им: кто из вас, имея одну овцу, если она в субботу упадет в яму, не возьмет ее и не вытащит?
12 [Because] sheep are valuable, [their owners may work on our day of rest in order to rescue them. So, because] people are more valuable than sheep, it is certainly right for us to do something good [by healing another person any day, including] our day of rest!”
Сколько же лучше человек овцы! Итак можно в субботы делать добро.
13 Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your [withered] hand!” The man stretched it out, and it became normal like the other hand!
Тогда говорит человеку тому: протяни руку твою. И он протянул, и стала она здорова, как другая.
14 Then the Pharisees left [the meeting house. They were worried that the people would reject their traditions and would accept Jesus’ teaching instead. So] they met together to plan how they could kill him.
Фарисеи же, выйдя, имели совещание против Него, как бы погубить Его. Но Иисус, узнав, удалился оттуда.
15 Because Jesus knew [that the Pharisees were plotting to kill him], he [took us disciples and] went away from there. Crowds, [including many sick people], followed him, [wanting him to heal them], and he healed them all.
И последовало за Ним множество народа, и Он исцелил их всех
16 But he told them firmly that they should not tell [other people yet] who he was.
и запретил им объявлять о Нем,
17 [By acting humbly like that] he fulfilled what was written by Isaiah the prophet {what Isaiah the prophet wrote} [long ago about the Messiah]. [Isaiah wrote] that God said:
да сбудется реченное через пророка Исаию, который говорит:
18 Take note of my servant whom I have chosen, the one whom I love and with whom I am pleased. I will put my Spirit in him, and he will proclaim that [God] will judge the non-Jews justly.
Се, Отрок Мой, Которого Я избрал, Возлюбленный Мой, Которому благоволит душа Моя. Положу дух Мой на Него, и возвестит народам суд;
19 He will not quarrel [with people], neither will he shout. He will not [teach with] a loud voice in the [main] streets.
не воспрекословит, не возопиет, и никто не услышит на улицах голоса Его;
20 Until he has justly judged [the people who trust in him and] has declared them not guilty, he will not destroy [anyone who is weak like] a smashed stalk [MET], nor will he silence [anyone who is as helpless as] a smoldering [linen] wick [MET, DOU].
трости надломленной не переломит и льна курящегося не угасит, доколе не доставит суду победы;
21 As a result, the non-Jews will confidently expect [that he will do great things for them].
и на имя Его будут уповать народы.
22 One day when Jesus was at home, [some men] brought to [Jesus] a man [who, because of being] controlled by a demon {a demon controlled him}, was blind and unable to speak. [Jesus] healed him [by expelling the demon]. As a result, the man [began to] talk and [was able to] see.
Тогда привели к Нему бесноватого слепого и немого; и исцелил его, так что слепой и немой стал и говорить и видеть.
23 All the crowd [who saw it] marveled. They began asking [each other], “Could this man be the [Messiah, the] descendant of [King] David, [whom we have been expecting]?”
И дивился весь народ и говорил: не это ли Христос, сын Давидов?
24 Because the Pharisees [and the men who taught the Jewish laws] heard [that the people thought that Jesus might be the Messiah because he had expelled the demon], they said, “[It is not God, but] Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons, who enables [this man] to expel demons [from people!]”
Фарисеи же, услышав сие, сказали: Он изгоняет бесов не иначе как силою веельзевула, князя бесовского.
25 But Jesus knew what [the Pharisees] were thinking [and saying]. So, [in order to show them that what they said did not make sense], he said to them, “If [the people in] [MTY] one nation fight against each other, [they] will destroy their nation {their nation will be destroyed}. If [people who live in] the same city or house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one group or family].
Но Иисус, зная помышления их, сказал им: всякое царство, разделившееся само в себе, опустеет; и всякий город или дом, разделившийся сам в себе, не устоит.
26 [Similarly], if Satan were expelling his own [demons] [MTY], [it would be as though] he was fighting against himself. (His kingdom would not continue!/How could his kingdom continue?) [RHQ] His rule over them would [certainly] not last!
И если сатана сатану изгоняет, то он разделился сам с собою: как же устоит царство его?
27 Furthermore, if [it is true that] Satan enables me to expel demons, is it also true that your disciples [who] expel demons [do so] by [Satan’s] power [RHQ]? [No] So they will show you that you [are not thinking logically].
И если Я силою веельзевула изгоняю бесов, то сыновья ваши чьею силою изгоняют? Посему они будут вам судьями.
28 But because it is God’s Spirit who [enables] me to expel demons, [that proves that the power of] God to rule [people’s lives] has come to you.
Если же Я Духом Божиим изгоняю бесов, то, конечно, достигло до вас Царствие Божие.
29 [I will illustrate why I am able to expel demons]. (A person cannot go into the house of a strong man) [RHQ] [But if he ties up the strong man], then he will be able to steal [the things in that man’s] house.
Или, как может кто войти в дом сильного и расхитить вещи его, если прежде не свяжет сильного? и тогда расхитит дом его.
30 [No one can be neutral]. Those who do not acknowledge [that the Holy Spirit enables] me [to expel demons] are opposing me, and those who do not gather [people to become] my [disciples] are causing [those people] to [DOU] go away [from me].
Кто не со Мною, тот против Меня; и кто не собирает со Мною, тот расточает.
31 You [are saying that it is not the Holy Spirit who is enabling me to expel demons]. So I will say this to you: [If] those who offend and slander other people in any way are [then sorry and ask God to forgive them, God] will forgive them. But people who discredit what the Holy Spirit does will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive [people] who discredit what the Holy Spirit does}.
Посему говорю вам: всякий грех и хула простятся человекам, а хула на Духа не простится человекам;
32 [God is willing to] forgive people who criticize [me], the One who came from heaven. But I [warn you that] those who say evil things about what the Holy Spirit [does] will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive people who speak evil words about what the Holy Spirit [does]}. They will not be forgiven {[He] will not forgive them} now, and they will never be forgiven {[he] will never forgive them}.” (aiōn g165)
если кто скажет слово на Сына Человеческого, простится ему; если же кто скажет на Духа Святаго, не простится ему ни в сем веке, ни в будущем. (aiōn g165)
33 “Think about this: You can know whether [a person is good and what that person says is good, in the same way that you] can know whether a tree [MET] and the fruit it produces [MET] are good. [You can also know whether a person and what that person says is evil in the same way that you can know] whether a tree [MET] and its fruit [MET] are blighted. You can know whether a tree is good by [seeing] its fruit, and similarly [people can know the evil character of you Pharisees by listening to your accusations against me].
Или признайте дерево хорошим и плод его хорошим; или признайте дерево худым и плод его худым, ибо дерево познается по плоду.
34 [What] you [teach harms people spiritually like poisonous] snakes [harm them physically] [MET]! You are not able to speak good things because you are evil [RHQ]. Evil people [SYN] [like you] speak what comes from all that is in their (inner beings/hearts).
Порождения ехиднины! как вы можете говорить доброе, будучи злы? Ибо от избытка сердца говорят уста.
35 Good people [speak good things. That is like] taking good things out of buildings where they are stored. But evil people [speak evil things. That is like] taking evil things out of buildings where they are stored.
Добрый человек из доброго сокровища выносит доброе, а злой человек из злого сокровища выносит злое.
36 I tell you that on the day when God judges [MTY], he will make people recall every useless word they have spoken, [and he will judge them accordingly].
Говорю же вам, что за всякое праздное слово, какое скажут люди, дадут они ответ в день суда:
37 Based on the words that you have spoken, [God] will [either] declare that you are righteous based on the words that you have spoken, or [else] he will condemn you.”
ибо от слов своих оправдаешься, и от слов своих осудишься.
38 Then some of the Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws responded [to what Jesus was teaching] by saying to him, “Teacher, we want to see you [perform] a miracle [that would prove to us that God sent you].”
Тогда некоторые из книжников и фарисеев сказали: Учитель! хотелось бы нам видеть от Тебя знамение.
39 Then Jesus said to them, “[You] people [have already seen me perform miracles], but you are evil, and you do not faithfully worship God [MET]! You want [me to perform] a miracle [that would prove to you that God sent me], but [God will enable] you to see only one miracle. It will be [like] what happened to Jonah the prophet [MET].
Но Он сказал им в ответ: род лукавый и прелюбодейный ищет знамения; и знамение не дастся ему, кроме знамения Ионы пророка;
40 Jonah was in the stomach of a huge fish for three days and nights [before God caused him to live again]. Similarly, for three days and nights I, the one who came from heaven, will be in a place [where dead people are, and then God will cause me to live again].
ибо как Иона был во чреве кита три дня и три ночи, так и Сын Человеческий будет в сердце земли три дня и три ночи.
41 When [God] judges [all people], the people who lived in Nineveh will stand [in front of him] with [you] people who [have seen me perform miracles]. The [people of Nineveh turned from their sinful ways as a result of hearing what] Jonah preached. [Jonah was important, but I], who am more important than Jonah, [have come and preached to you, but you have not turned from your sinful ways. So] when [God] judges [all people, he] will condemn you.
Ниневитяне восстанут на суд с родом сим и осудят его, ибо они покаялись от проповеди Иониной; и вот, здесь больше Ионы.
42 The queen from [Sheba, South of Israel, who lived long ago, came from a distant region in order to listen to King Solomon teach] many wise things. But now [I], [a man] who [is much] greater [and wiser] than Solomon, am here, [but you have not listened to what I have told you]. So at the time when [God] judges [all people], the queen from [Sheba will stand in front of him, along] with you people, and will condemn you.”
Царица южная восстанет на суд с родом сим и осудит его, ибо она приходила от пределов земли послушать мудрости Соломоновой; и вот, здесь больше Соломона.
43 “[Sometimes] when an evil spirit leaves a person, it wanders around in desolate areas, seeking [someone in whom it can] rest. If it does not find anyone,
Когда нечистый дух выйдет из человека, то ходит по безводным местам, ища покоя, и не находит;
44 it says [to itself], ‘I will return to the person [MET] in whom I used to live.’ So it goes back [and finds that the Spirit of God is not in control of that] person’s [life. The person’s life is like] a house that has been swept clean and everything put in order [MET], [but it is] empty.
тогда говорит: возвращусь в дом мой, откуда я вышел. И, придя, находит его незанятым, выметенным и убранным;
45 Then [this evil spirit] goes and gets seven other spirits that are [even] more evil, and they [all] enter [that person] and [begin] living there. [So, although] that person’s condition [was bad] before, it becomes much worse. That is what [you] wicked people who [have heard me teach] will experience.”
тогда идет и берет с собою семь других духов, злейших себя, и, войдя, живут там; и бывает для человека того последнее хуже первого. Так будет и с этим злым родом.
46 While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his [younger] brothers [arrived]. They stood outside [the house], wanting to speak with him.
Когда же Он еще говорил к народу, Матерь и братья Его стояли вне дома, желая говорить с Ним.
47 Someone said to him, “Your mother and your [younger] brothers are standing outside [the house], wanting to talk to you.”
И некто сказал Ему: вот Матерь Твоя и братья Твои стоят вне, желая говорить с Тобою.
48 Then Jesus said to the person who told him [that], “([I will tell you something about] my mother and brothers [MET].[/Do you know] who I [consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [MET, RHQ]
Он же сказал в ответ говорившему: кто Матерь Моя? и кто братья Мои?
49 He then pointed toward [us] disciples and said, “These are ones [whom I love as much as I love] my mother and my brothers [MET].
И, указав рукою Своею на учеников Своих, сказал: вот матерь Моя и братья Мои;
50 Those who do what [God] my Father [who is] in heaven wants, are [as dear to me] [MET] [as] my brother, my sister, or my mother.”
ибо, кто будет исполнять волю Отца Моего Небесного, тот Мне брат, и сестра, и матерь.
