Matthew 17
1 A week after Jesus [said that], he took Peter, James, and John, the [younger] brother of James, and led them up a high mountain where they were away from other people.
Un pēc sešām dienām Jēzus ņēma Pēteri un Jēkabu un šā brāli, Jāni, un tos veda savrup uz augstu kalnu,
2 [While they were there, the three disciples] saw that Jesus’ appearance was changed. His face shone like the sun, and his clothing [shone and] became as brilliant as light.
Un tapa apskaidrots viņu priekšā, un Viņa vaigs spīdēja kā saule, un Viņa drēbes tapa baltas kā gaisma.
3 Suddenly Moses and Elijah, [who were important prophets many years ago], appeared and started talking with him.
Un redzi, Mozus un Elija tiem parādījās un runāja ar Viņu.
4 Peter [saw them and] said to Jesus, “Lord, it is wonderful for us to be here! If you want [me to], I will make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
Un Pēteris vērsās pie Jēzus un sacīja: “Kungs, šeit mums labi! Ja Tu gribi, tad mēs šeitan trīs būdas taisīsim, vienu Tev, vienu Mozum, un vienu Elijam.”
5 While Peter was speaking, a bright cloud [appeared and] covered them. [They heard God] speaking [about Jesus from] inside the cloud. He said [to them], “This is my Son. I love him. He pleases me very much. [So] you must listen to him!”
Tam vēl runājot, redzi, spožs padebesis tos apēnoja, un redzi, balss no tā padebeša sacīja: “Šis ir Mans mīļais Dēls, pie kā Man ir labs prāts, To jums būs klausīt.”
6 When the three disciples heard [God speaking], they were terrified. [As a result], they fell prostrate on the ground.
Kad tie mācekļi to dzirdēja, tad tie krita uz savu vaigu un izbijās ļoti.
7 But Jesus went to them and touched them [and] said [to them], “Stand up! Do not be afraid any more!”
Bet Jēzus nāca, tos aizskāra un sacīja: “Ceļaties un nebīstaties.”
8 And when they looked up [MTY], they saw that Jesus was the only one [who was still there].
Bet kad tie savas acis pacēla, tad tie neredzēja nevienu kā tik vien Jēzu.
9 When they were walking down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Do not tell anyone what you saw [on the mountain top] until [God has caused me], the one who has come from heaven, to become alive again after I die.”
Un no kalna noejot, Jēzus tiem pavēlēja un sacīja: “Nesakiet nevienam šo parādīšanos, tiekams Tas Cilvēka Dēls nebūs uzcēlies no miroņiem.”
10 [Those three disciples had just seen Elijah and he did not do anything to prepare people for the coming of the Messiah], so they asked Jesus, “If [what you say is true], why do the men who teach the [Jewish] laws say that it is necessary for Elijah to come [back to earth] before [the Messiah comes]?”
Un Viņa mācekļi Viņam vaicāja sacīdami: “Ko tad tie rakstu mācītāji saka, ka Elijam jānāk papriekš?”
11 Jesus answered [them], “It is true that [God promised that] Elijah would come to prepare many [HYP] [people for the Messiah’s coming].
Bet Jēzus atbildēja un uz tiem sacīja: “Elija gan nāk papriekš un visu atkal sataisīs.
12 But note this: Elijah’s [representative] has already come, [and our leaders have seen him], but they did not recognize him [as the one who would come before the Messiah]. Instead, they treated him [badly], just like they desired. And those same rulers will soon treat [me], the one who came from heaven, in the same manner.”
Bet Es jums saku, ka Elija jau ir nācis, tomēr tie viņu nav atzinuši, bet ar viņu darījuši, ko gribēdami. Tā arī Tam Cilvēka Dēlam būs jācieš no viņiem.”
13 Then the three disciples understood that [when he was talking about Elijah], he was referring to John the Baptizer.
Tad tie mācekļi saprata, ka Viņš tiem sacījis no Jāņa, tā Kristītāja.
14 When [Jesus and the three disciples] returned to the [rest of us disciples] and to the crowd [that had gathered], a man approached Jesus and knelt before him.
Un kad tie nāca pie tiem ļaudīm, tad viens cilvēks pie Viņa atnāca un metās ceļos Viņa priekšā
15 He said [to him], “Sir/Lord, have mercy on my son and [heal him]! He has epilepsy and suffers very much. [Because of this illness], he has fallen in the fire and in the water many times.
Un sacīja: “Kungs, apžēlojies par manu dēlu, jo viņš ir mēnessērdzīgs un viņam briesmīgi jācieš; jo dažkārt viņš krīt ugunī un dažkārt ūdenī.
16 I brought him to your disciples [in order that they might heal him], but they were not able to heal him.”
Un es to pie Taviem mācekļiem esmu atvedis, bet tie to nevarēja veselu darīt.”
17 Jesus responded [by saying to everyone who had gathered there], “[You who have seen how I help people] do not believe [that you can do anything! Your minds] are distorted! How long do I have to be with you [before you] are [able to do what I do] [RHQ]? How long [do] I have to endure your [not believing] [RHQ]? Bring the boy here to me!”
Bet Jēzus atbildēja un sacīja: “Ak tu neticīgā un netiklā cilts, cik ilgi Es vēl būšu pie jums? Cik ilgi Es jūs panesīšu? Vediet Man viņu šurp.”
18 When [they brought the boy to Jesus], Jesus rebuked the demon [that was causing the epilepsy]. [As a result], the demon came out of the boy, and right then the boy was healed.
Un Jēzus viņu apdraudēja, un velns no viņa izbēga; un tas zēns palika vesels tanī pašā stundā.
19 [Later, some of us] disciples approached Jesus. We asked him privately, “Why were we [(exc)] not able to expel the demon?”
Tad tie mācekļi piegāja pie Jēzus atsevišķi un sacīja: “Kāpēc mēs viņu nevarējām izdzīt?”
20 He answered us, “It is because you did not believe very much [in God’s power]. Think about this: Mustard seeds [are very small, but in this area they grow and produce large] [MET] [plants]. [Similarly], if your faith grows until you truly believe [that God will do what you ask him to], you will be able to do anything [LIT]! You [could even] say to this hill, ‘Move from here to there!’ and it would go [where you told it to go].”
Un Jēzus uz tiem sacīja: “Jūsu neticības dēļ; jo patiesi, Es jums saku: kad jums ticība ir kā sinepju graudiņš, tad jūs sacīsiet šim kalnam: nocelies no šejienes uz turieni, un viņš nocelsies, un nekas jums nebūs neiespējams.
Bet šī suga neizbēg kā vien caur lūgšanu un gavēšanu.”
22 When [we disciples] had gathered together in Galilee [district], Jesus said to us, “[I], the one who came from heaven, will soon be handed over {[Someone] will soon hand me, the one who came from heaven, over} to the authorities [SYN].
Kad nu tie Galilejā apkārt staigāja, tad Jēzus uz tiem sacīja: “Tas Cilvēka Dēls taps nodots cilvēku rokās.
23 They will kill me. But [God] will cause me to become alive again on the third day [after I am killed].” [When we heard that], we became very sad.
Un Viņu nokaus, un trešā dienā Viņš celsies augšām;” un tie ļoti noskuma.
24 When we came to Capernaum [city], the men who collect taxes [for the Temple approached Peter and said to him], “Your teacher pays the [Temple tax], does he not?”
Un kad tie Kapernaūmā nāca, tad tie nodokļu saņēmēji atnāca pie Pētera un sacīja: “Vai jūsu Mācītājs nodokli nedod?”
25 He answered [them], “Yes, [he does pay it].” When we came into the house [where Jesus was saying], [before Peter began to talk about paying taxes], Jesus said [to him], “Simon, from whom do you think rulers collect revenue or taxes? [Do they collect taxes] from the citizens of their own [country], or from citizens of countries [they have conquered]?”
Viņš sacīja: “Dod gan.” Un kad tas namā bija iegājis, Jēzus viņam papriekš vaicāja sacīdams: “Ko tu domā, Sīman? No kuriem laicīgie ķēniņi ņem muitu un nodokli? Vai no saviem bērniem, vai no svešiniekiem?”
26 Peter answered [him], “From [citizens of] other [countries].” Then Jesus said to him, “So citizens of their own [country] do not need to [pay taxes].
Pēteris uz Viņu sacīja: “No svešiniekiem.” Tad Jēzus uz to sacīja: “Tad tie bērni ir svabadi.
27 But [even though the Temple is mine, pay the tax for us so that the Temple tax collectors will not become angry with us. In order to get the money to pay it], go to the lake. Cast your [fish line and] hook, and take the first fish that you catch. When you open its mouth, you will find a silver coin [that is worth enough to pay the tax] for you and me. Take that coin and give [it] to the Temple tax collectors.”
Bet lai mēs tiem nedodam apgrēcību, tad ej jūrmalā un izmet makšķeri, un to pirmo zivi, kas piekodīsies, ņem, un viņas muti atdarījis, tu atradīsi vienu stateri, to ņem un dod viņiem priekš Manis un tevis.”
