Matthew 9
1 Jesus and his disciples got into the boat. They skirted around [the lake] and went to [Capernaum, the city where he was living].
Sesudah itu naiklah Yesus ke dalam perahu lalu menyeberang. Kemudian sampailah Ia ke kota-Nya sendiri.
2 [Some men] brought to him a man who was paralyzed and who was lying on a sleeping pad. When Jesus perceived that they believed [that he could heal the paralyzed man], he said to him, “Young man, be encouraged! I forgive your sins.”
Maka dibawa oranglah kepada-Nya seorang lumpuh yang terbaring di tempat tidurnya. Ketika Yesus melihat iman mereka, berkatalah Ia kepada orang lumpuh itu: "Percayalah, hai anak-Ku, dosamu sudah diampuni."
3 Some of the men who taught the [Jewish] laws said among themselves, “[He claims that he can forgive sins! That means that he claims to be equal with God] He is insulting God!”
Maka berkatalah beberapa orang ahli Taurat dalam hatinya: "Ia menghujat Allah."
4 Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said, “(You should not think evil [thoughts], [accusing me because I claim that I am God]!/Why do you think evil [thoughts], [saying that it is wrong for me to claim that I am God]?) [RHQ]
Tetapi Yesus mengetahui pikiran mereka, lalu berkata: "Mengapa kamu memikirkan hal-hal yang jahat di dalam hatimu?
5 It would [not] be risky [for someone] to say [to this man], ‘[I] forgive your sins’, [because no one could see whether or not it really happened]. But [no one, without having the power to heal], would say [to him], ‘[Get] up and walk!’, [because people could easily see whether it happened or not!] [RHQ]
Manakah lebih mudah, mengatakan: Dosamu sudah diampuni, atau mengatakan: Bangunlah dan berjalanlah?
6 [So I am going to do something] in order that you may know that [God] has authorized [me], the one who came from heaven, to forgive the sins [of people while I am] on the earth, [as well as to heal people].” Then he said to the paralyzed man, “Get up, pick up your sleeping pad, and go home!”
Tetapi supaya kamu tahu, bahwa di dunia ini Anak Manusia berkuasa mengampuni dosa" --lalu berkatalah Ia kepada orang lumpuh itu--:"Bangunlah, angkatlah tempat tidurmu dan pulanglah ke rumahmu!"
7 And [immediately] the man got up, [picked up his sleeping pad], and went home!
Dan orang itupun bangun lalu pulang.
8 When the crowds saw this, they were awestruck. They praised God for giving authority to a human being [to do] such [things].
Maka orang banyak yang melihat hal itu takut lalu memuliakan Allah yang telah memberikan kuasa sedemikian itu kepada manusia.
9 As Jesus was going away from there, he saw me, a man named Matthew. I was sitting at a table where I collected taxes [for the Roman government]. He said to me, “Come with me [and become my disciple]!” So I got up and went with him.
Setelah Yesus pergi dari situ, Ia melihat seorang yang bernama Matius duduk di rumah cukai, lalu Ia berkata kepadanya: "Ikutlah Aku." Maka berdirilah Matius lalu mengikut Dia.
10 [Then I invited] Jesus and his disciples to my home for a meal. While [they] were sitting and eating in my home, many tax collectors and [other people who were] {whom [the Pharisees]} [considered to be habitual] sinners came unexpectedly to eat with us.
Kemudian ketika Yesus makan di rumah Matius, datanglah banyak pemungut cukai dan orang berdosa dan makan bersama-sama dengan Dia dan murid-murid-Nya.
11 When the Pharisees saw [that, they came] to us disciples and said, “([It is disgusting that] your teacher, [who claims to be righteous], eats [and associates] with tax collectors and [other] sinners!/Why is it that your teacher, [who claims to be righteous], eats [and associates] with tax collectors and [other] sinners?)” [RHQ]
Pada waktu orang Farisi melihat hal itu, berkatalah mereka kepada murid-murid Yesus: "Mengapa gurumu makan bersama-sama dengan pemungut cukai dan orang berdosa?"
12 Jesus heard what [they said], so he told them [this parable]: “[It is] people who are sick who need a [doctor] [MET], not people who are well.” [What he meant by that was that it was people who knew that they were sinners who were coming to him in order to be helped spiritually].
Yesus mendengarnya dan berkata: "Bukan orang sehat yang memerlukan tabib, tetapi orang sakit.
13 He continued by saying, “You need to learn what these words that [God said] mean: ‘I want you to [act] mercifully to people and not [just to offer] sacrifices.’ Keep in mind that I came [from heaven, not] to invite [people who think] [IRO] [that they are] righteous [to turn away from their sinful lives and come to me, but to invite people who know they are] sinners [to turn from their sins and come to me].”
Jadi pergilah dan pelajarilah arti firman ini: Yang Kukehendaki ialah belas kasihan dan bukan persembahan, karena Aku datang bukan untuk memanggil orang benar, melainkan orang berdosa."
14 Later, the disciples of John [the Baptizer] came to Jesus and asked him, “We [(exc)] and the Pharisees [often] abstain from food [to show that we want to please God], but your disciples do not do that. Why [do they not]?”
Kemudian datanglah murid-murid Yohanes kepada Yesus dan berkata: "Mengapa kami dan orang Farisi berpuasa, tetapi murid-murid-Mu tidak?"
15 [Jesus wanted to show them and the Pharisees that it was not appropriate for his disciples to abstain from food and mourn while he was still with them]. So he [gave them this illustration]: “When a bridegroom is with [his friends at the time of the wedding], (his friends certainly do not mourn, do they?/do his friends mourn?) [RHQ] [No, they do not mourn, because they are not sad at that time. But when] the bridegroom is taken {[someone] takes the [/his enemies] take the bridegroom} from them, they will abstain from food, [because then they will be sad].”
Jawab Yesus kepada mereka: "Dapatkah sahabat-sahabat mempelai laki-laki berdukacita selama mempelai itu bersama mereka? Tetapi waktunya akan datang mempelai itu diambil dari mereka dan pada waktu itulah mereka akan berpuasa.
16 [Jesus wanted to show them that people who desire to live in accordance with his new message should not try to continue to obey the old religious traditions like] ([abstaining from food/fasting]) [MET]. [So he said to them], “People do not sew a patch of unshrunken cloth on an old garment [to mend a hole]. If they did that, [when they washed the garment], the patch would [shrink] and tear the garment, and the hole would become bigger.
Tidak seorangpun menambalkan secarik kain yang belum susut pada baju yang tua, karena jika demikian kain penambal itu akan mencabik baju itu, lalu makin besarlah koyaknya.
17 Neither does anyone pour freshly-[squeezed] grape juice into old skin bags [to store it]. If anyone did that, those skin bags would tear [because they would not stretch when the grape juice ferments and expands. They] would be ruined, and the wine would be spilled {spill} [on the ground]. Instead, [people] put new wine into new skin bags, [and the bags will stretch when the wine ferments]. As a result, both [the wine and the bags] are preserved.”
Begitu pula anggur yang baru tidak diisikan ke dalam kantong kulit yang tua, karena jika demikian kantong itu akan koyak sehingga anggur itu terbuang dan kantong itupun hancur. Tetapi anggur yang baru disimpan orang dalam kantong yang baru pula, dan dengan demikian terpeliharalah kedua-duanya."
18 While Jesus was saying that, a leader of the Jewish meeting place came and bowed down before him [to show respect]. Then he said, “My daughter just died! But if you come and lay your hand on her, she will live [again]!”
Sementara Yesus berbicara demikian kepada mereka, datanglah seorang kepala rumah ibadat, lalu menyembah Dia dan berkata: "Anakku perempuan baru saja meninggal, tetapi datanglah dan letakkanlah tangan-Mu atasnya, maka ia akan hidup."
19 So Jesus got up, and he and [we] disciples went with the man.
Lalu Yesuspun bangunlah dan mengikuti orang itu bersama-sama dengan murid-murid-Nya.
20 Then a woman who [had been suffering constant vaginal] bleeding for twelve years came near Jesus. She was saying to herself, “[I want Jesus to heal me without anyone finding out that I have this problem of bleeding]. So if I [touch him] or even if I just touch his garment, I will be healed [without anyone finding out about it].” So she came behind him and touched the tassel of his garment.
Pada waktu itu seorang perempuan yang sudah dua belas tahun lamanya menderita pendarahan maju mendekati Yesus dari belakang dan menjamah jumbai jubah-Nya.
Karena katanya dalam hatinya: "Asal kujamah saja jubah-Nya, aku akan sembuh."
22 Then Jesus turned around [to see who had touched him]. And when he saw the woman, he said to her, “Be encouraged, dear woman. Because you believed [PRS] [that I could heal you, I] have healed you.” The woman was healed at that very moment.
Tetapi Yesus berpaling dan memandang dia serta berkata: "Teguhkanlah hatimu, hai anak-Ku, imanmu telah menyelamatkan engkau." Maka sejak saat itu sembuhlah perempuan itu.
23 Then Jesus [and some of us disciples] came to the Jewish leader’s house. Jesus heard the flute players [playing funeral music] and the crowd [that had gathered] wailing loudly [because the girl had died].
Ketika Yesus tiba di rumah kepala rumah ibadat itu dan melihat peniup-peniup seruling dan orang banyak ribut,
24 [Knowing that he would cause her to live again], he said [to them], “Go away [and stop the funeral music and wailing], because the girl is not dead! She is [just] sleeping!” [The people laughed at him, because they knew that she was dead].
berkatalah Ia: "Pergilah, karena anak ini tidak mati, tetapi tidur." Tetapi mereka menertawakan Dia.
25 But Jesus told them to get out of the house. Then he went into [the room where the girl was lying]. He took hold of her hand and she [became alive again and] got up.
Setelah orang banyak itu diusir, Yesus masuk dan memegang tangan anak itu, lalu bangkitlah anak itu.
26 And the [people of that] whole region heard [PRS] about it.
Maka tersiarlah kabar tentang hal itu ke seluruh daerah itu.
27 As Jesus went away from there, two blind men followed him and shouted, “Have mercy on us [and heal our eyes, you who are the Messiah], the Descendant of [King] David!”
Ketika Yesus meneruskan perjalanan-Nya dari sana, dua orang buta mengikuti-Nya sambil berseru-seru dan berkata: "Kasihanilah kami, hai Anak Daud."
28 Jesus went into the house, where he [was staying], and then the blind men went in, too. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able [to heal your eyes]?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord!”
Setelah Yesus masuk ke dalam sebuah rumah, datanglah kedua orang buta itu kepada-Nya dan Yesus berkata kepada mereka: "Percayakah kamu, bahwa Aku dapat melakukannya?" Mereka menjawab: "Ya Tuhan, kami percaya."
29 Then he touched their eyes and he said [to them], “Because you believe [that I can heal your eyes], I am healing them [right now]!”
Lalu Yesus menjamah mata mereka sambil berkata: "Jadilah kepadamu menurut imanmu."
30 And they were able to see [IDM]! Then Jesus told them sternly, “Be sure [IDM] that you do not tell anybody [what I did for you]!”
Maka meleklah mata mereka. Dan Yesuspun dengan tegas berpesan kepada mereka, kata-Nya: "Jagalah supaya jangan seorangpun mengetahui hal ini."
31 But they went out and reported it throughout that whole region.
Tetapi mereka keluar dan memasyhurkan Dia ke seluruh daerah itu.
32 When [Jesus and we disciples] left [the house], some people brought to Jesus a man who was unable to speak because he was controlled by a demon {a demon controlled him}.
Sedang kedua orang buta itu keluar, dibawalah kepada Yesus seorang bisu yang kerasukan setan.
33 After Jesus had expelled the demon, the man who had been unable to speak began to speak! The crowd [who saw this] marveled. They said, “Never before have [we seen] anything as [marvelous] as this happen in Israel!”
Dan setelah setan itu diusir, dapatlah orang bisu itu berkata-kata. Maka heranlah orang banyak, katanya: "Yang demikian belum pernah dilihat orang di Israel."
34 But the Pharisees said, “It is [Satan], who rules the demons, who [enables this man to] expel demons [from people].”
Tetapi orang Farisi berkata: "Dengan kuasa penghulu setan Ia mengusir setan."
35 Then [we] went [with] Jesus through many of [HYP] the cities and towns [in Galilee district. He was teaching (in the synagogues/in the Jewish meeting places)], and preaching the good message about how God rules [over people’s lives]. He also was healing the [people who had] various diseases and illnesses.
Demikianlah Yesus berkeliling ke semua kota dan desa; Ia mengajar dalam rumah-rumah ibadat dan memberitakan Injil Kerajaan Sorga serta melenyapkan segala penyakit dan kelemahan.
36 When he saw the crowd of people, he pitied them because they were harassed and dejected. [They were] like sheep that do not have a shepherd [SIM].
Melihat orang banyak itu, tergeraklah hati Yesus oleh belas kasihan kepada mereka, karena mereka lelah dan terlantar seperti domba yang tidak bergembala.
37 Then he gave [this illustration] to us disciples: “[The people who are ready to receive my message are like a] field that is ready to be harvested {for people to harvest}. But there are only a few [of you who are teaching people my message].
Maka kata-Nya kepada murid-murid-Nya: "Tuaian memang banyak, tetapi pekerja sedikit.
38 So pray and ask the Lord [God] to send [more] workers [who will gather people together and teach them my message, just like a landowner sends workers] into his [field to gather] the [MET] harvest.”
Karena itu mintalah kepada tuan yang empunya tuaian, supaya Ia mengirimkan pekerja-pekerja untuk tuaian itu."
