All of his children came to try to comfort him, but he did not pay attention to what they said. He said, “No, I will still be mourning/crying when I die and go to be with my son.” So Joseph’s father continued to cry because of what had happened to his son. (Sheol h7585)

But if Yahweh does something that has never happened before, if he causes the ground [that is under their feet] to open up and swallow these men [and their families] and all their possessions, and they fall into the opening and are buried while they are still alive, then you will know that these men have insulted Yahweh.” (Sheol h7585)

But men who go to those women’s houses do not know that those who have gone there are now dead; they have descended down into the deepest parts of the place where dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Er weiß aber nicht, daß die Schatten daselbst hausen und ihre Gäste in den Tiefen des Scheols. (Sheol h7585)
Yahweh knows [what is happening in] the place where dead people [DOU] are, so he certainly knows [RHQ] what people are thinking. (Sheol h7585)

Trage mich wie einen Siegelstein auf deinem Herzen, wie einen Siegelring an deinem Arm! Denn Liebe ist stark wie der Tod, und Eifersucht hart wie das Totenreich; ihre Glut ist Feuerglut, eine Flamme des HERRN. (Sheol h7585)
[It is as though] [PRS] the place where the dead people are is eagerly looking for more Israeli people, opening its mouth to swallow them, and a huge number of people will be thrown into that place, including their leaders as well as a noisy crowd of people who enjoy living in Jerusalem. (Sheol h7585)
Darum verlangt auch das Totenreich große Opfer und hat seinen Rachen über die Maßen weit aufgesperrt, und es fährt hinunter ihr Adel und ihre Menge samt all ihrem Getümmel und wer in ihr frohlockt! (Sheol h7585)
[He said to tell him], “Request me, Yahweh your God, to do something that will enable you to be sure [that I will help/protect you]. What you request can be [from a place that is] as high as the sky or as low as the place where the dead people are.” (Sheol h7585)
Fordere ein Zeichen von dem HERRN, deinem Gott, in der Tiefe unten oder droben in der Höhe! Da antwortete Ahas: (Sheol h7585)
The dead people are [PRS] are eagerly waiting for you to come to the place where they are. The spirits of the world leaders will be delighted to welcome you; those who were kings of many nations [before they died] will stand up [to welcome you]. (Sheol h7585)
Das Totenreich drunten gerät in Aufregung vor dir in Erwartung deines Kommens; es weckt die Schatten auf deinethalben; alle Fürsten der Erde läßt er von ihren Thronen aufstehen, alle Könige der Heiden. (Sheol h7585)
You were very proud and powerful, [but all] that ended when you died, along with the sounds of harps [being played in your palace]. [Now in your grave] maggots will be under you [like a sheet] [MET], and worms will cover you [like a blanket] [MET]. (Sheol h7585)
Deine Pracht und das Rauschen deiner Harfen ist auch ins Totenreich gefahren; Maden werden dein Lager und Würmer deine Decke sein! (Sheol h7585)

Ja, zum Totenreich fährst du hinab, in die tiefste Grube! (Sheol h7585)
You [boast] saying, “We have made an alliance with [the leaders of Egypt], so we will not be killed [in battles]; we will never go to the place where the dead people are. When the [army of Assyria] attacks us, they will never defeat us, because we have made [an agreement with Egypt] to protect us!” [But that agreement consists of] a lot of lies [DOU]. (Sheol h7585)
Weil ihr sprecht: «Wir haben mit dem Tode einen Bund und mit dem Totenreich einen Vertrag gemacht; wenn eine überschwemmende Flut daherkommt, wird sie nicht zu uns gelangen; denn wir haben Lüge zu unserer Zuflucht gemacht und in Betrug uns geborgen»; (Sheol h7585)
I will annul/destroy the agreement that you made [with the leaders of Egypt]. You thought that [because of that agreement] you would not be killed, and you would not go to the place where the dead are. [But] when the vast [army of Assyria] overwhelms you like a flood, they will trample you into the ground. (Sheol h7585)
daß euer Bund mit dem Tode abgetan werde und euer Vertrag mit dem Totenreich nicht bestehe. Wenn die überschwemmende Flut daherfährt, so wird sie über euch weggehen, (Sheol h7585)
I thought to myself, “Is it necessary for me to die and go to the place where the dead people are during this time of my life when I am still strong? Is Yahweh going to rob me of the remaining years that I [should live]?” (Sheol h7585)
Ich sprach: In meinen besten Jahren muß ich zu den Toren des Totenreichs eingehen! Mit dem Verluste des Restes meiner Jahre werde ich bestraft. (Sheol h7585)
Dead people [MTY] cannot praise you; they cannot sing to praise you. Those who have descended to their graves cannot confidently expect you to faithfully [do things for them]. (Sheol h7585)
Denn das Totenreich kann dich nicht loben, noch der Tod dich preisen; und die in die Grube fahren, können nicht auf deine Treue warten; (Sheol h7585)
You have given [fragrant] oil and lots of perfume to your god Molech, and you sent messengers to distant countries [to find other gods to worship]; you [even tried to] send [messengers] to the place of the dead [to search for new gods]. (Sheol h7585)
Du bist zum Könige gezogen, in Öl gebadet, und hast dich fleißig gesalbt; du hast deine Boten in die weiteste Ferne geschickt und dich erniedrigt bis zum Totenreich. (Sheol h7585)
This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘When that great tree was cut down, [it was as though] the springs that watered it mourned for it, because I caused the plentiful water [from the springs] to dry up. I caused [the mountains in] Lebanon to become black, and all the trees there to wither. (Sheol h7585)
Gott, der HERR, hat also gesprochen: An dem Tage, da er ins Totenreich hinabfuhr, ließ ich eine Klage abhalten; ich ließ über ihn trauern die Flut; ich hemmte ihre Ströme, und die großen Wasser wurden zurückgehalten, und ich ließ den Libanon um ihn trauern, und alle Bäume des Feldes verschmachteten seinetwegen. (Sheol h7585)
I caused the people of other nations to tremble when they heard that tree fall to the ground. [They realized] that it would decay, like all people who die and are buried decay. And all the [leaders of other countries represented by] other beautiful trees in my garden in Eden and in Lebanon, were like beautiful trees [that were very proud]. They were ones which had roots that grew down deep into the [ground where there was plenty of] water. They were comforted when [the king represented by] [MET] that cedar tree was there with them in the place where the dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Von dem Getöse seines Falles machte ich die Heiden erbeben, da ich ihn ins Totenreich hinabstieß mit denen, welche in die Grube hinabfahren. Und es trösteten sich in den Tiefen der Erde alle Bäume Edens, samt allen auserlesenen und besten Bäumen Libanons, alle, die vom Wasser getränkt worden waren. (Sheol h7585)
The [leaders of other countries represented by] [MET] trees that grew in the shade of the huge tree, [the allies of] the great nation [that the cedar tree represents], had also joined those who had been killed by the sword and gone down to where the dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Auch sie fuhren mit ihm ins Totenreich hinab zu denen, welche durchs Schwert umgekommen sind und als seine Setzlinge unter seinem Schatten gewohnt haben inmitten der Heiden. (Sheol h7585)
In the place where the dead people are, mighty leaders [of other countries] will [make fun of the people of Egypt] and say, “They have come here to lie with us godless people who were killed by our enemies’ swords!”’ (Sheol h7585)
Es werden die Starken unter den Helden aus der Mitte der Unterwelt von ihm und seinen Helfern sagen: «Sie sind hinabgefahren, sie liegen da, die Unbeschnittenen, die vom Schwerte durchbohrt sind!» (Sheol h7585)
They will surely [RHQ] not be buried honorably like the soldiers who have died, whose shields were buried with their corpses, whose swords were placed on their skulls in the graves. While those godless people were alive, they had caused many people in the land to be terrified, so they were punished for their sins. (Sheol h7585)
Und sie liegen nicht bei den Helden, welche unter den Unbeschnittenen gefallen sind, die mit ihren Kriegswaffen in die Unterwelt hinabfuhren, denen man ihre Schwerter unter ihre Häupter legte; sondern ihre Missetat ist auf ihrem Gebein, weil sie ein Schrecken der Helden waren im Lande der Lebendigen. (Sheol h7585)
I certainly will not [RHQ] save you from being killed and from going to the place where the dead people are. I will [RHQ] cause you to be afflicted by plagues and to die and be buried in graves. I will not be merciful [to you]. (Sheol h7585)
Ich will sie erlösen aus der Gewalt des Totenreichs, vom Tode will ich sie loskaufen. Tod, wo ist dein Verderben? Totenreich, wo ist dein Sieg? Mitleid muß verschwinden vor mir! (Sheol h7585)
If they dig deep pits in the ground, or if they try to climb up to the sky [in order to escape], I will reach out and grab them. (Sheol h7585)
Wenn sie auch bis ins Totenreich eindrängen, so würde sie doch meine Hand von dannen holen, und wenn sie zum Himmel emporstiegen, so würde ich sie von dort hinunterstoßen. (Sheol h7585)
Jonah said, “Yahweh, when I was greatly distressed [here], I prayed to you, and you heard what I [prayed]. When I was [about to descend way down into] the place where dead people go, you heard me when I called out [for you to help/save me]. (Sheol h7585)
Als mir angst war, rief ich zu dem HERRN, und er erhörte mich; aus dem Bauch der Hölle schrie ich, und du hörtest meine Stimme! (Sheol h7585)
If people [trust in their wealth], they will deceive themselves, and proud people are never able to rest. [It is as though] the greedy people [of Babylonia open their mouths] as wide as the place where dead people are, and they never have enough, like [the place where] dead people go never has enough dead people [PRS]. The [armies of Babylonia] conquer many nations for themselves, and capture all their people. (Sheol h7585)
Und dazu kommt noch der tückische Wein. Der Mann wird übermütig und bleibt nicht ruhig; er wird so begehrlich wie der Scheol und unersättlich wie der Tod, daß er alle Völker zu sich sammeln und alle Nationen an sich ziehen will. (Sheol h7585)
But what I say to you is this: [If you are] angry with someone, [God] will judge you. If you say to someone, ‘[You are worthless],’ the Jewish Council will judge you. If you [hate someone], and say to them 'You fool!' you. yourself, will be in danger of being thrown into the fires in hell. (Geenna g1067)
Ich aber sage euch: Jeder, der seinem Bruder zürnt, wird dem Gericht verfallen sein. Wer aber zu seinem Bruder sagt: Raka! der wird dem Hohen Rat verfallen sein. Wer aber sagt: Du Narr! der wird dem höllischen Feuer verfallen sein. (Geenna g1067)
If because of what you see [MTY] you [are tempted to] sin, [stop looking at those things! Even if you have to] gouge out one of your eyes and throw it away [HYP] [to avoid sinning, do it!] It is good [that you not sin and] as a result [go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both of] your eyes. But it is not good [that you continue to have two eyes and sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell. (Geenna g1067)
Wenn dir aber dein rechtes Auge ein Anstoß zur Sünde wird, so reiß es aus und wirf es von dir. Denn es ist besser für dich, daß eins deiner Glieder verloren gehe, als daß dein ganzer Leib in die Hölle geworfen werde. (Geenna g1067)
If you are [tempted to] use one of your hands to sin [MTY], [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 do not sin and as a result you go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both] of your [hands]. But it is not good [that you sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell.” (Geenna g1067)
Und wenn deine rechte Hand für dich ein Anstoß zur Sünde wird, so haue sie ab und wirf sie von dir. Denn es ist besser für dich, daß eins deiner Glieder verloren gehe, als daß dein ganzer Leib in die Hölle geworfen werde. (Geenna g1067)
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 g1067)
Und fürchtet euch nicht vor denen, die den Leib töten, die Seele aber nicht zu töten vermögen, fürchtet vielmehr den, welcher Seele und Leib verderben kann in der Hölle. (Geenna g1067)
[also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city] [MTY]. (Do not [think that] you will be honored {that [God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you think that you will be honored {that [God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary, after you die, you will be sent] {[God] will send you} down into the place where [sinful people] will be punished {he will punish sinful people} [forever. God destroyed the ancient city of] Sodom [because the people who lived in that city were extremely wicked]. If I had performed in [Sodom the miracles that I performed in your city, the people there would have turned away from their wicked behavior and] their [city] [MET] would still exist now [MTY]. But you, [although I did miracles in your city, you did not turn from your wicked behavior]. (Hadēs g86)
Und du, Kapernaum, die du bis zum Himmel erhoben bist, du wirst bis zur Hölle hinabgeworfen werden. Denn wenn zu Sodom die Taten geschehen wären, die bei dir geschehen sind, es stünde noch heutzutage! (Hadēs g86)
[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)
Und wer ein Wort redet wider des Menschen Sohn, dem wird vergeben werden; wer aber wider den heiligen Geist redet, dem wird nicht vergeben werden, weder in dieser Weltzeit noch in der zukünftigen. (aiōn g165)
[Some people are like the soil that had the roots of] thorny [weeds] in it. They hear God’s message, but they desire to be rich, [so they] worry [only] about [MTY, PRS] material things. As a result, they [PRS] forget [God’s] message, and they do not do [IDM] the things that God wants them to do. (aiōn g165)
Unter die Dornen gesät aber ist es bei dem, welcher das Wort hört; aber die Sorge um das Zeitliche und der Betrug des Reichtums ersticken das Wort, und es bleibt ohne Frucht. (aiōn g165)
The enemy who sowed the weed seeds represents the devil. The [time when the reapers will] harvest [the grain] represents the time when the world will end. The reapers represent the angels. (aiōn g165)
Der Feind, der es sät, ist der Teufel; die Ernte ist das Ende der Weltzeit, die Schnitter sind die Engel. (aiōn g165)
The weeds are gathered and burned. {The reapers gather the weeds. Then they burn them.} That represents [the judging of people, which God will do] when the world will end. [It will be like this]: (aiōn g165)
Gleichwie man nun das Unkraut sammelt und mit Feuer verbrennt, so wird es sein am Ende der Weltzeit. (aiōn g165)
[What they did in separating the good fish from the bad ones] is like [what will happen to people] when the world ends. The angels will come [to where God is judging people], and will separate the wicked [people] from the righteous [ones]. (aiōn g165)
So wird es am Ende der Weltzeit sein: Die Engel werden ausgehen und die Bösen von den Gerechten scheiden (aiōn g165)
I will also tell you this: You are Peter, [which means rock]. [You are like] a rock. What you [and your fellow apostles teach] (OR, [what] you [do]) [will be like a foundation on which I] will create congregations of people who [believe in] me. And the demons [PRS], [who live] where the dead people who lived evil lives are, will not be able to [come and] prevent [MET] [me from doing] that.” (Hadēs g86)
Und ich sage dir auch: Du bist Petrus, und auf diesen Felsen will ich meine Gemeinde bauen, und die Pforten der Hölle sollen sie nicht überwältigen. (Hadēs g86)
So, if you [are wanting to use] one of your hands or feet to sin, [stop using that hand or foot! Even if you have to] cut it off [to avoid sinning, do it] [MET]! It is good [that you not sin and] go where you will live [with God eternally, even though while you are still here on earth] you are maimed or lame and do not have a hand or a foot. But it is not good that you continue to have your two hands and two feet [and do] [MTY] [the sinful things you want to, and as a result], you are thrown into [hell], where there is eternal fire burning. (aiōnios g166, questioned)
Wenn aber deine Hand oder dein Fuß für dich ein Anstoß zur Sünde wird, so haue sie ab und wirf sie von dir! Es ist besser für dich, daß du lahm oder verstümmelt in das Leben eingehest, als daß du zwei Hände oder zwei Füße habest und in das ewige Feuer geworfen werdest. (aiōnios g166)
If what you see you [makes you want] to sin, [stop looking at those things! Even if you have to] gouge out one of your eyes and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good [that you not sin and] go where you will live [with God eternally, even though while you are still here on earth] you have only one eye. But it is not good that you continue to have your two eyes [and do the sinful things you want to, and as a result], you are thrown {God throws you} into hell where there is eternal fire burning.” (Geenna g1067)
Und wenn dein Auge für dich ein Anstoß zur Sünde wird, so reiß es aus und wirf es von dir! Es ist besser für dich, daß du einäugig in das Leben eingehest, als daß du zwei Augen habest und in das höllische Feuer geworfen werdest. (Geenna g1067)
[As Jesus was walking along, a young] man approached him and said [to him], “Teacher, what good [deeds] must I do in order to live [with God] eternally?” (aiōnios g166)
Und siehe, einer trat herzu und fragte ihn: Guter Meister, was soll ich Gutes tun, um das ewige Leben zu erlangen? (aiōnios g166)
[God will reward] those who, because of being my [disciples], have left [behind] a house or plot of ground, [their] brothers, [their] sisters, their father, their mother, their children, [or any other family] [MTY] [members]. [God] will give them 100 times [as many benefits as they have given up]. And they will live [with God] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
Und ein jeglicher, welcher Häuser oder Brüder oder Schwestern oder Vater oder Mutter oder Weib oder Kinder oder Äcker um meines Namens willen verlassen hat, der wird es hundertfältig empfangen und das ewige Leben erben. (aiōnios g166)
He saw a fig tree near the road. [So he went over to it to pick some figs to eat]. But when he got close, he saw that there were no [figs on the tree]. There were only leaves on it. So [to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel], he said to the fig tree, “May you never again produce figs!” As a result, the fig tree withered that night. (aiōn g165)
Und als er einen einzelnen Feigenbaum am Wege sah, ging er zu ihm hin und fand nichts daran als nur Blätter. Da sprach er zu ihm: Nun komme von dir keine Frucht mehr in Ewigkeit! Und auf der Stelle verdorrte der Feigenbaum. (aiōn g165)
“You are hypocrites, you men who teach the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees! Your punishment will be terrible, because you exert yourselves very much to get [even] one person to believe what you teach. For instance, you travel across seas and lands [to distant places] in order to do that. And [as a result], when one person [believes what you teach], you make that person much more deserving to go to hell than you yourselves [deserve to].” (Geenna g1067)
Wehe euch, Schriftgelehrte und Pharisäer, ihr Heuchler, daß ihr Meer und Land durchziehet, um einen einzigen Judengenossen zu machen, und wenn er es geworden ist, macht ihr ein Kind der Hölle aus ihm, zwiefältig mehr, als ihr seid! (Geenna g1067)
[You people are so wicked] You are [as dangerous as poisonous] snakes [DOU, MET]! (You [foolishly] think that you will escape being punished in hell!/Do you [foolishly] think that you will escape when [God] punishes [wicked people] in hell?) [RHQ] (Geenna g1067)
Ihr Schlangen! Ihr Otterngezüchte! Wie wollt ihr dem Gerichte der Hölle entgehen? (Geenna g1067)
[Later], as Jesus was sitting alone on [the slope of] Olive [Tree] Hill, [we] disciples went to him and asked him, “When will this happen [to the buildings of the Temple? Also, tell us what will happen to indicate that you are about to] come again, and [to indicate] that this world is ending?” (aiōn g165)
Als er aber auf dem Ölberge saß, traten die Jünger zu ihm besonders und sprachen: Sage uns, wann wird das alles geschehen, und welches wird das Zeichen deiner Wiederkunft und des Endes der Weltzeit sein? (aiōn g165)
Then I will say to those on my left, ‘You people who have been cursed [by God] {whom God has cursed}, leave me! Go into the eternal fire that God has prepared for (the devil/Satan) and his angels! (aiōnios g166)
Dann wird er auch denen zur Linken sagen: Gehet hinweg von mir, ihr Verfluchten, in das ewige Feuer, das bereitet ist dem Teufel und seinen Engeln! (aiōnios g166)
Then those people [on my left] will go away to the place where [they] will be punished {[God] will punish them} eternally, but the righteous people will go to where they will live forever [with God].” (aiōnios g166)
Und sie werden in die ewige Pein gehen, die Gerechten aber in das ewige Leben. (aiōnios g166)
Teach them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember that [by the Spirit] I will be with you always, until the end of [this] age.” (aiōn g165)
und sie halten lehret alles, was ich euch befohlen habe. Und siehe, ich bin bei euch alle Tage bis ans Ende der Weltzeit! (aiōn g165)
they desire to be rich, and they desire to own many other things. So they worry [only] about material things. The result is that they forget [God’s] message and they do not do [the things that God wants them to do]. (aiōn g165)
aber die Sorgen dieser Weltzeit und der Betrug des Reichtums und die Begierden nach andern Dingen dringen ein und ersticken das Wort, und es wird unfruchtbar. (aiōn g165)
[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)
Und wenn deine Hand für dich ein Anstoß zur Sünde wird, so haue sie ab! Es ist besser für dich, daß du als Krüppel in das Leben eingehest, als daß du beide Hände habest und in die Hölle fahrest, in das unauslöschliche Feuer, (Geenna g1067)
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)
Und wenn dein Fuß für dich ein Anstoß zur Sünde wird, so haue ihn ab! Es ist besser für dich, daß du lahm in das Leben eingehest, als daß du beide Füße habest und in die Hölle geworfen werdest, in das unauslöschliche Feuer, (Geenna g1067)
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)
Und wenn dein Auge für dich ein Anstoß zur Sünde wird, so reiße es aus! Es ist besser für dich, daß du einäugig in das Reich Gottes eingehest, als daß du zwei Augen habest und in das höllische Feuer geworfen werdest, (Geenna g1067)
As Jesus was starting to travel [again with his disciples], a [young] man ran up to him. He knelt before Jesus and then he asked him, “Good teacher, what must I do to have eternal life/in order to live [with God] eternally?” (aiōnios g166)
Und als er auf den Weg hinausging, lief einer herzu, fiel vor ihm auf die Knie und fragte ihn: Guter Meister, was soll ich tun, um das ewige Leben zu ererben? (aiōnios g166)
will receive in this life 100 times as much [as they left behind. That will include houses and people as dear as] brothers and sisters and mothers and children, and plots of ground. Furthermore, although people will persecute them [here on earth because they believe in me], in the future age [they] will ([have] eternal life/live [with God] eternally). (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
[But to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel, ] he said to the tree, “No one shall ever eat from you again [because you will no longer bear figs].” The disciples heard what he said. (aiōn g165)
Und Jesus hob an und sprach zu ihm: Es esse in Ewigkeit niemand mehr eine Frucht von dir! Und seine Jünger hörten es. (aiōn g165)
He will be the King of [the] Jews, the descendants [MTY] of [your ancestor] Jacob, forever. He will rule as king forever!” (aiōn g165)
und er wird regieren über das Haus Jakobs in Ewigkeit, und seines Reiches wird kein Ende sein. (aiōn g165)
He promised to Abraham and all our other ancestors who descended from him that he would act mercifully toward them forever.” (aiōn g165)
wie er geredet hat zu unsern Vätern, Abraham und seinem Samen, auf ewig! (aiōn g165)
Long ago God caused his prophets to say that he would do that. (aiōn g165)
wie er verheißen hat durch den Mund seiner heiligen Propheten von alters her: (aiōn g165)
[The demons] kept begging [Jesus] that he would not command them to go into the deep place [where God punishes demons]. (Abyssos g12)
Und sie baten ihn, er möge ihnen nicht befehlen, in den Abgrund zu fahren. (Abyssos g12)
[I also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city]. (Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary], [after you die, God] will send you down to the place where [sinful people] will be punished [forever]!” (Hadēs g86)
Und du, Kapernaum, die du bis zum Himmel erhoben worden, du wirst bis zur Hölle hinabgeworfen werden! (Hadēs g86)
[One day as Jesus was teaching people], a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that [God gave Moses]. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live [with God] forever?” (aiōnios g166)
Und siehe, ein Schriftgelehrter trat auf, versuchte ihn und sprach: Meister, was muß ich tun, um das ewige Leben zu ererben? (aiōnios g166)
But I will warn you about the one that you should truly be afraid of. You should be afraid of [God], because he not only has [the power to] cause people to die, he has the power to throw them into hell afterward! Yes, he is truly the one that you should be afraid of! (Geenna g1067)
Ich will euch aber zeigen, wen ihr fürchten sollt: Fürchtet den, welcher, nachdem er getötet, auch Macht hat, in die Hölle zu werfen! Ja, ich sage euch, den fürchtet! (Geenna g1067)
When his master [heard what the manager had done], he admired the dishonest manager for the clever thing he had done. [The truth] is that the ungodly people in this world act more wisely toward other people than godly people [MET] act. (aiōn g165)
Und der Herr lobte den ungerechten Haushalter, daß er klug gehandelt habe. Denn die Kinder dieser Welt sind ihrem Geschlecht gegenüber klüger als die Kinder des Lichts. (aiōn g165)
[So] I tell you [(pl)] this: Use the money that you have [here] on earth to help others so that they will become your friends. Then when [you die and] you cannot [take] any money with you, [God and his angels] will welcome you into a home [in heaven] that will last forever. (aiōnios g166)
Auch ich sage euch: Machet euch Freunde mit dem ungerechten Mammon, auf daß, wenn er [euch] ausgeht, sie euch aufnehmen in die ewigen Hütten. (aiōnios g166)
In the place where dead people wait [for God to judge them], he was suffering great pain. He looked up and saw Abraham far away, and he saw Lazarus sitting close to Abraham. (Hadēs g86)
Und als er im Totenreich seine Augen erhob, da er Qualen litt, sieht er Abraham von ferne und Lazarus in seinem Schoß. (Hadēs g86)
A [Jewish] leader asked [Jesus], “Good teacher, what shall I do in order to have eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Und es fragte ihn ein Oberster und sprach: Guter Meister, was muß ich tun, um das ewige Leben zu ererben? (aiōnios g166)
Jesus replied to them, “Men who live here in this world take wives, or are given wives [by their parents] {their [parents] choose wives [for them]}. (aiōn g165)
Und Jesus antwortete ihnen: Die Kinder dieser Weltzeit freien und lassen sich freien; (aiōn g165)
But the men whom God considers worthy of [being in heaven after] they become alive again will not be married. (aiōn g165)
welche aber gewürdigt werden, jene Weltzeit zu erlangen und die Auferstehung von den Toten, die werden weder freien noch sich freien lassen, (aiōn g165)
As a result, everyone who believes/trusts in me will have eternal life.” (aiōnios g166)
auf daß jeder, der an ihn glaubt, nicht verloren gehe, sondern ewiges Leben habe. (aiōnios g166)
God loved us people [MTY] in the world so much that he gave his only Son [as a sacrifice for us], in order that everyone who believes in him would not be separated from God forever. Instead, they would have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Denn Gott hat die Welt so geliebt, daß er seinen eingeborenen Sohn gab, damit jeder, der an ihn glaubt, nicht verloren gehe, sondern ewiges Leben habe. (aiōnios g166)
Those who trust in [God’s] Son have eternal life. But those who reject God’s Son will never have [eternal] life. Instead, God is angry with them [and he will surely punish them]. (aiōnios g166)
Wer an den Sohn glaubt, der hat ewiges Leben; wer aber dem Sohne nicht glaubt, der wird das Leben nicht sehen, sondern der Zorn Gottes bleibt auf ihm. (aiōnios g166)
[If you help them to accept my message], I will reward you [MET], [as an owner of a field] pays those who harvest the crops. Because of your work, people will gain eternal life.’ [I have been telling people God’s message. That is like] [MET] a man who plants seeds. [You will help people to accept my message. That will be like] [MET] harvesting crops. [When that happens], both you and I will rejoice. (aiōnios g166)
Wer erntet, der empfängt Lohn und sammelt Frucht zum ewigen Leben, auf daß sich der Sämann und der Schnitter miteinander freuen. (aiōnios g166)
Listen to this carefully: Those who hear my message and believe that [God] is the one who sent me have eternal life. [God will] not (condemn them/say that he will punish them). They are no longer separated from God. Instead, they have [eternal] life. (aiōnios g166)
Wahrlich, wahrlich, ich sage euch, wer mein Wort hört und dem glaubt, der mich gesandt hat, der hat ewiges Leben und kommt nicht ins Gericht, sondern er ist vom Tode zum Leben hindurchgedrungen. (aiōnios g166)
You carefully study (OR, Study) the Scriptures, because you think that by [studying] them you will [find the way to] have eternal life. And those Scriptures tell people about me! (aiōnios g166)
Ihr erforschet die Schriften, weil ihr meinet, darin das ewige Leben zu haben; und sie sind es, die von mir zeugen. (aiōnios g166)
Stop desiring food that will soon spoil! Instead, desire to get [spiritual] food that will last forever! Yearn for eternal life! That is what I, the one who came from heaven, will give you. God [my] Father has shown that he approves of me [enabling me to do that].” (aiōnios g166)
Wirket nicht die Speise, die vergänglich ist, sondern die Speise, die ins ewige Leben bleibt, welche des Menschen Sohn euch geben wird; denn diesen hat Gott, der Vater, bestätigt! (aiōnios g166)
[Long ago in the desolate area when those who were bitten by snakes looked at the bronze replica of a snake, they were healed] [MET]. What my Father wants is that [similarly] everyone who looks at [what] I [have done] and believes in me will have eternal life. I will cause them to become alive again (on the last day/on the day [when I judge everyone]) [MTY].” (aiōnios g166)
Denn das ist der Wille meines Vaters, daß jeder, der den Sohn sieht und an ihn glaubt, ewiges Leben habe; und ich werde ihn auferwecken am letzten Tage. (aiōnios g166)
Listen to this carefully: Everyone who believes ([my message/in me]) has eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Wahrlich, wahrlich, ich sage euch, wer an mich glaubt, hat ewiges Leben. (aiōnios g166)
I am the one who came down from heaven to enable people to have [spiritual] life. If people take what I will give them, they will live forever. What I will give them is my flesh, which I will give to [all the people in] [MTY] the world in order that they may have [spiritual] life.” (aiōn g165)
Ich bin das lebendige Brot, vom Himmel herabgekommen. Wenn jemand von diesem Brot ißt, wird er in Ewigkeit leben. Das Brot aber, das ich geben werde, ist mein Fleisch, welches ich geben werde für das Leben der Welt. (aiōn g165)
Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will cause them to become alive again at (the last day/the [judgment] day), (aiōnios g166)
Wer mein Fleisch ißt und mein Blut trinkt, der hat ewiges Leben, und ich werde ihn auferwecken am letzten Tage. (aiōnios g166)
[I am] the true bread that came down from heaven. Although our ancestors ate [manna], they [later] died [anyway]. But those who eat this bread will live forever.” (aiōn g165)
Dies ist das Brot, das vom Himmel herabgekommen ist; nicht wie eure Väter [das Manna] gegessen haben und gestorben sind; wer dieses Brot ißt, der wird leben in Ewigkeit! (aiōn g165)
Simon Peter replied to him, “Lord, [we] will not [leave you], [because] (there is no other person [like you] to whom we can go!/what other person is there like [you] to whom we can go?) [RHQ] You have the message about eternal life! (aiōnios g166)
Da antwortete ihm Simon Petrus: Herr, zu wem sollen wir gehen? Du hast Worte ewigen Lebens. (aiōnios g166)
A slave is not a permanent member of a family. But a son is a member of a family forever. [Similarly, you say you are members of God’s family because you are descendants of Abraham, but really, because you are like slaves of your sinful desires, you are no longer permanent members of God’s family]. (aiōn g165)
Der Knecht aber bleibt nicht ewig im Hause; der Sohn bleibt ewig. (aiōn g165)
But the truth is that anyone who obeys what I say will never die!” (aiōn g165)
Wahrlich, wahrlich, ich sage euch, wenn jemand mein Wort bewahrt, so wird er den Tod nicht sehen in Ewigkeit! (aiōn g165)
Then the Jewish [leaders] [SYN], [thinking that he was talking about ordinary death and not about spiritual death], said to him, “Now we are sure that a demon [controls] you! Abraham and the prophets died [long ago]! But you say that anyone who obeys what you teach will never die! (aiōn g165)
Da sprachen die Juden zu ihm: Jetzt erkennen wir, daß du einen Dämon hast! Abraham ist gestorben und die Propheten, und du sagst: Wenn jemand mein Wort bewahrt, so wird er den Tod nicht schmecken in Ewigkeit. (aiōn g165)
No one has ever enabled a man to see who was blind when he was born [like I was]. That has never happened since the world began! (aiōn g165)
Seit die Welt steht, ist nicht gehört worden, daß jemand einem Blindgeborenen die Augen aufgetan hat. (aiōn g165)
Furthermore, all those who believe in me while they are alive, [their souls] will not die [forever]. Do you believe that?” (aiōn g165)
und jeder, der da lebt und an mich glaubt, wird in Ewigkeit nicht sterben. Glaubst du das? (aiōn g165)
Anyone who strongly wants to keep on living [here on earth] will surely lose his life forever. But anyone who is willing to die [HYP] [for my sake] will surely gain eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Wer seine Seele liebt, der wird sie verlieren; wer aber seine Seele in dieser Welt haßt, wird sie zum ewigen Leben bewahren. (aiōnios g166)
[Someone in] the crowd answered him, “We understand from the Scriptures that the Messiah will live forever. So why do you say that the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], will be lifted up {that [men] will lift up the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], } on a cross? What kind of man who came from heaven are you [talking about]? (OR, That’s not the [kind] of Messiah [we are expecting]!)” (aiōn g165)
Das Volk antwortete ihm: Wir haben aus dem Gesetze gehört, daß Christus in Ewigkeit bleibt; wie sagst du denn, des Menschen Sohn müsse erhöht werden? Wer ist dieser Menschensohn? (aiōn g165)
I know that [paying attention to] what he has instructed us [leads to] eternal life. So whatever I say is exactly (OR, only) what [my] Father has told me to say.” (aiōnios g166)
Und ich weiß, daß sein Gebot ewiges Leben ist. Darum, was ich rede, das rede ich so, wie der Vater es mir gesagt hat. (aiōnios g166)
Peter said, “I will never, ever, [allow you to] wash my feet!” Jesus replied to him, “If I do not wash you, you cannot continue (to be my [disciple/to belong to] me).” (aiōn g165)
Petrus spricht zu ihm: Nimmermehr sollst du mir die Füße waschen! Jesus antwortete ihm: Werde ich dich nicht waschen, so hast du keine Gemeinschaft mit mir. (aiōn g165)
Then I myself will request [my] Father, and he will send you someone else who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. (aiōn g165)
Und ich will den Vater bitten, und er wird euch einen andern Beistand geben, daß er bei euch bleibe in Ewigkeit, (aiōn g165)
You gave me authority over all people, in order that I might enable all those whom you chose [to come] to me to live eternally. (aiōnios g166)
gleichwie du ihm Vollmacht gegeben hast über alles Fleisch, auf daß er ewiges Leben gebe allen, die du ihm gegeben hast. (aiōnios g166)
[The way for people] to live eternally is for them to know that you are the only true God, and to know that [I], Jesus, am the Messiah, the one you have sent. (aiōnios g166)
Das ist aber das ewige Leben, daß sie dich, den allein wahren Gott, und den du gesandt hast, Jesus Christus, erkennen. (aiōnios g166)
You will not allow my spirit to remain in the place where the dead are. You will not [even] let my body decay, [because] I am devoted to you and always obey [you]. (Hadēs g86)
denn du wirst meine Seele nicht im Totenreich lassen und nicht zugeben, daß dein Heiliger die Verwesung sehe. (Hadēs g86)
David knew beforehand [what God would do], so he [was able to] say that God would cause the Messiah to live again [after he died]. He said that God would not let the Messiah remain in the place of the dead, nor let his body decay.” (Hadēs g86)
hat er in dieser Voraussicht von der Auferstehung Christi geredet, daß seine Seele nicht im Totenreich gelassen werde, noch sein Fleisch die Verwesung sehe. (Hadēs g86)
Jesus must stay in heaven until the time when God will cause all that he has created to become new. Long ago God promised [to do that, and] he chose holy prophets to tell [that to people]. (aiōn g165)
welchen der Himmel aufnehmen muß bis auf die Zeiten der Wiederherstellung alles dessen, wovon Gott durch den Mund seiner heiligen Propheten von alters her geredet hat. (aiōn g165)
Then, speaking very boldly, Paul and Barnabas said [to those Jewish leaders], “[We two] had to speak the message from God [about Jesus] to you [Jews] first [before we proclaim it to non-Jews, because God commanded us to do that. But] you are rejecting God’s message. [By doing that], you have shown that you are not worthy (to have eternal life/to live eternally [with God]). [Therefore], we are leaving [you, and now we] will go to the non-Jewish people [to tell them the message from God]. (aiōnios g166)
Da sprachen Paulus und Barnabas freimütig: Euch mußte das Wort Gottes zuerst gepredigt werden; da ihr es aber von euch stoßet und euch selbst des ewigen Lebens nicht würdig achtet, siehe, so wenden wir uns zu den Heiden. (aiōnios g166)
While the non-Jewish people were listening [to those words], they began to rejoice, and they repeatedly said that the message about the Lord [Jesus] was wonderful. And all of the non-Jewish people whom [God] had chosen (to have eternal [life/to live eternally with God]) believed [the message about the Lord Jesus]. (aiōnios g166)
Als die Heiden das hörten, wurden sie froh und priesen das Wort des Herrn, und es wurden gläubig, soviele ihrer zum ewigen Leben verordnet waren. (aiōnios g166)
I [caused my people to know about them] long ago.” (aiōn g165)
und dem sie von Ewigkeit her bekannt sind. (aiōn g165)
[People] cannot see what God is like. But ever since he created the world, by means of what he created he has clearly revealed what he is like. He has made clear to everyone that he has always been able to do very powerful things. [Therefore, we should recognize that] God is powerful, [completely different from all that he created]. So no one has a basis for saying, [“We never knew about God].” (aïdios g126)
denn sein unsichtbares Wesen, das ist seine ewige Kraft und Gottheit, wird seit Erschaffung der Welt an den Werken durch Nachdenken wahrgenommen, so daß sie keine Entschuldigung haben. (aïdios g126)
Also, they [chose to worship] false [gods] instead (of admitting/of choosing to believe) what is true [about] God. They worshipped and served things [that God] created instead of [worshipping and serving God himself], the one who created [everything. They did this even though] he [deserves that those he created] would forever praise him. Amen!/May it be so! (aiōn g165)
sie, welche die Wahrheit Gottes mit der Lüge vertauschten und dem Geschöpf mehr Ehre und Dienst erwiesen als dem Schöpfer, der da gelobt ist in Ewigkeit. Amen! (aiōn g165)
[Specifically], some people, by continuing to doing good things, strive to be highly honored [by God] [DOU] and to receive a life that will not end. [God will reward them by enabling them] to live forever. (aiōnios g166)
denen nämlich, die mit Ausdauer im Wirken des Guten Herrlichkeit, Ehre und Unsterblichkeit erstreben, ewiges Leben; (aiōnios g166)
He did that in order that just like people everywhere inevitably sin, [which results in their] dying [MET, PRS], people everywhere might inevitably experience God’s acting kindly towards them in a way they do not deserve [MET, PRS] by [erasing the record of their sins]. [The result is that people can] live eternally because of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for them]. (aiōnios g166)
auf daß, gleichwie die Sünde geherrscht hat im Tode, also auch die Gnade herrsche durch Gerechtigkeit zu ewigem Leben, durch Jesus Christus, unsren Herrn. (aiōnios g166)
But you have been freed {[God] has freed you} from [letting the desire to] sin control you. You have become [as though you are] [MET] the slaves of God. So now the result is that God has caused you to completely belong to him and, as a result, you will live eternally. (aiōnios g166)
Nun aber, da ihr von der Sünde frei und Gott dienstbar geworden seid, habt ihr als eure Frucht die Heiligung, als Ende aber das ewige Leben. (aiōnios g166)
[What people receive for] sinning [is that they are] eternally separated from God. That is [like] wages that [people receive] [MET]. But what God gives us is a gift. What he gives us is that we live eternally because of [our relationship with] (OR, because [we are united to]) Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
Denn der Tod ist der Sünde Sold; aber die Gnadengabe Gottes ist das ewige Leben in Christus Jesus, unsrem Herrn. (aiōnios g166)
It was our ancestors, [Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whom God chose to found our nation]. And, [most importantly], it was from us Israelites that the Messiah received his human nature. [Nevertheless, most of my fellow Israelites have rejected Christ], who is the one who controls all things! He is God, the one who is worthy that we praise him forever! This is true! (OR, Amen!) (aiōn g165)
ihnen gehören auch die Väter an, und von ihnen stammt dem Fleische nach Christus, der da ist über alle, hochgelobter Gott, in Ewigkeit. Amen! (aiōn g165)
“Or [you should not think inwardly], ‘(Someone will have to go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are!/Who will go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go down and] bring Christ up [from there to bring the message of salvation to us. You should not say that because Christ has already come down to save us, and has already become alive after he died]! (Abyssos g12)
oder: «wer will in den Abgrund hinuntersteigen?» nämlich um Christus von den Toten zu holen! (Abyssos g12)
God has declared and proved that all people, [both Jews and non-Jews] [MET], disobey ([him/his laws]). He has declared that because he wants to act mercifully towards us all. (eleēsē g1653)
Denn Gott hat alle miteinander in den Unglauben verschlossen, damit er sich aller erbarme. (eleēsē g1653)
God [is the one who created] all things. He is also the one who [sustains all things]. The reason that he created them was that [everything he created might praise] him. May [all people] honor him forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
Denn von ihm und durch ihn und zu ihm sind alle Dinge; ihm sei Ehre von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Do not let anything non-Christian determine how you should act. Instead, let God change your [way of life] by making your way of thinking new, in order that you may know what he wants you to do. That is, you will know what is good, and you will know what pleases [God], and you will know how to be all that he wants you to be. (aiōn g165)
Und passet euch nicht diesem Weltlauf an, sondern verändert euer Wesen durch die Erneuerung eures Sinnes, um prüfen zu können, was der Wille Gottes sei, der gute und wohlgefällige und vollkommene. (aiōn g165)
As [I] proclaim [the good message about] Jesus Christ, [I tell about God], the one who is able to strengthen you [spiritually]. I also proclaim the [truth] that was not revealed {which [God] did not reveal} in all previous ages/times (aiōnios g166)
Dem aber, der euch stärken kann laut meines Evangeliums und der Predigt von Jesus Christus, gemäß der Offenbarung des Geheimnisses, das von ewigen Zeiten her verschwiegen gewesen, (aiōnios g166)
but which has now been {which [he] has now} revealed. [I, along with others, have proclaimed] what the prophets wrote [about Christ]. We are doing what the eternal God commanded [us(exc)/me to do]. We want [people in] all ethnic groups to know [Christ] so that they can believe [in him] and obey [him]. (aiōnios g166)
jetzt aber geoffenbart und durch prophetische Schriften auf Befehl des ewigen Gottes kundgetan worden ist, zum Gehorsam des Glaubens, für alle Völker, (aiōnios g166)
[I desire that by] Jesus Christ [enabling us, we] will forever praise the one who alone is God, who alone is [truly] wise. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
ihm, dem allein weisen Gott, durch Jesus Christus, sei die Ehre von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (An die Römer gesandt von Korinth durch Phöbe, die Dienerin der Gemeinde zu Kenchreä.) (aiōn g165)
So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn g165)
Wo ist der Weise, wo der Schriftgelehrte, wo der Disputiergeist dieser Welt? Hat nicht Gott die Weisheit dieser Welt zur Torheit gemacht? (aiōn g165)
I do teach a message that people who are [spiritually] mature [consider to] be wise. But I do not teach a message that unbelievers [consider to be] wise. I also do not teach a message that unbelieving rulers in the world consider to be wise. [What they think about it does not matter], because [some day] (they will lose their power/not be ruling any more). (aiōn g165)
Wir reden allerdings Weisheit, unter den Gereiften; aber keine Weisheit dieser Welt, auch nicht der Obersten dieser Welt, welche vergehen. (aiōn g165)
Instead, I teach about what God planned wisely [long ago]. It is something that people did not know about previously because [God] did not reveal it previously. But God determined before he created the world that he would greatly benefit us by his wise plan. (aiōn g165)
Sondern wir reden Gottes Weisheit im Geheimnis, die verborgene, welche Gott vor den Weltzeiten zu unserer Herrlichkeit vorherbestimmt hat, (aiōn g165)
None of those who rule this world knew that wise plan. If they had known it, they would not have nailed our wonderful Lord to the cross. (aiōn g165)
welche keiner der Obersten dieser Welt erkannt hat; denn hätten sie sie erkannt, so würden sie den Herrn der Herrlichkeit nicht gekreuzigt haben. (aiōn g165)
Some among you think that you are wise because unbelievers thought you were wise previously. Stop deceiving yourselves. [If you really want to be wise, by accepting what God considers to be wise] you should [be willing to let unbelievers consider that you are] foolish [IRO]. (aiōn g165)
Niemand betrüge sich selbst! Dünkt sich jemand unter euch weise zu sein in dieser Weltzeit, so werde er ein Tor, damit er weise werde! (aiōn g165)
So if [I, Paul, think that by] eating a certain food I might cause a fellow believer to be ruined spiritually, I will never eat such food again. I do not want to cause any fellow believer (to be ruined spiritually/to stop believing in Christ). [And you should] ([do as I do/imitate my example]). (aiōn g165)
Darum wenn eine Speise meinem Bruder zum Anstoß wird, so will ich lieber in Ewigkeit kein Fleisch essen, damit ich meinem Bruder keinen Anstoß gebe. (aiōn g165)
All those things [that happened to our ancestors long ago] are examples for us. [Moses] wrote those things to warn us [who are living at this time which is near the end]. We are the people for whom God has done [the things that he decided to do in] the previous periods of time. (aiōn g165)
Das alles, was jenen widerfuhr, ist ein Vorbild und wurde zur Warnung geschrieben für uns, auf welche das Ende der Zeitalter gekommen ist. (aiōn g165)
Death [APO] will not win a victory over us. Death will not be able to hurt us. (Hadēs g86)
«Der Tod ist verschlungen in Sieg! Tod, wo ist dein Stachel? Totenreich, wo ist dein Sieg?» (Hadēs g86)
[Satan, who is] the one [who rules] this world, controls the thoughts of those unbelievers. He prevents them from understanding the message about how wonderful Christ is. [They are not able to understand that] Jesus is like God [in every way]. (aiōn g165)
in welchen der Gott dieser Welt die Sinne der Ungläubigen verblendet hat, daß ihnen nicht aufleuchte das helle Licht des Evangeliums von der Herrlichkeit Christi, welcher Gottes Ebenbild ist. (aiōn g165)
[I know that] all these troubles that [happen to us in this life are] not significant and will not last forever. [When we think of] the glorious things [that God is preparing] for us [to enjoy] forever [in heaven], all [our suffering now] is not important. (aiōnios g166)
Denn unsere Trübsal, die zeitlich und leicht ist, verschafft uns eine ewige und über alle Maßen gewichtige Herrlichkeit, (aiōnios g166)
That is why we say, “We will not continue thinking about [all the suffering that we] are experiencing now. Even though [we] cannot see [all the things that God has prepared for us in heaven], those are what we should be thinking about.” [That is how we should think], because [all these troubles] that [we(exc)] have [now] will last only a short time. But what [we will have in heaven], what [we] cannot see [now], will last forever. (aiōnios g166)
uns, die wir nicht sehen auf das Sichtbare, sondern auf das Unsichtbare; denn was sichtbar ist, das ist zeitlich; was aber unsichtbar ist, das ist ewig. (aiōnios g166)
We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios g166)
Denn wir wissen, daß, wenn unsere irdische Zeltwohnung abgebrochen wird, wir einen Bau von Gott haben, ein Haus, nicht mit Händen gemacht, das ewig ist, im Himmel. (aiōnios g166)
[Those who give willingly and cheerfully will be rewarded like the man about whom] it is written {[about whom] (someone/the Psalmist) wrote} in the Scriptures, He generously [helps others], [he gives to those] who are poor. [God will remember] the good things that he did, [and reward him with] good things forever. (aiōn g165)
wie geschrieben steht: «Er hat ausgestreut, er hat den Armen gegeben; seine Gerechtigkeit bleibt in Ewigkeit.» (aiōn g165)
God, who is the Father of our [(inc)] Lord Jesus, and who is the one [whom we should] praise forever, knows that I am not lying [about this]. (aiōn g165)
Der Gott und Vater des Herrn Jesus, der gelobt ist in Ewigkeit, weiß, daß ich nicht lüge. (aiōn g165)
Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] in order that [he might remove the guilt for] our sins. He did that in order that he might enable us to not [do the evil things that people who do not know him] do. [He did this] because God, who is our Father, wanted it. (aiōn g165)
der sich selbst für unsere Sünden gegeben hat, damit er uns herausrette aus dem gegenwärtigen argen Weltlauf, nach dem Willen Gottes und unsres Vaters, (aiōn g165)
[I pray that people will] praise God forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
welchem die Ehre gebührt von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit. Amen. (aiōn g165)
[God] will punish eternally those who do what their self-directed natures urge them to do. But those who please [God’s] Spirit will live forever [with God] because of what [God’s] Spirit does for them. (aiōnios g166)
Denn wer auf sein Fleisch sät, wird vom Fleisch Verderben ernten; wer aber auf den Geist sät, wird vom Geist ewiges Leben ernten. (aiōnios g166)
[There], Christ is the supreme ruler over every powerful spirit of every level of authority. His rank is much higher than any powerful spirit can receive, not only now, but forever. (aiōn g165)
hoch über jedes Fürstentum und [jede] Gewalt, Macht und Herrschaft und jeden Namen, der genannt wird nicht allein in diesem Zeitalter, sondern auch in dem zukünftigen (aiōn g165)
You were acting in the same [evil] way as those who oppose Christ [MTY] act. That is, you were behaving in the [evil] ways [that Satan wanted you to behave]. He rules over evil spiritual beings that no person can see [MTY]. He is the spirit who now powerfully controls the people who disobey God. (aiōn g165)
in welchen ihr einst wandeltet nach dem Lauf dieser Welt, nach dem Fürsten, der in der Luft herrscht, dem Geiste, der jetzt in den Kindern des Unglaubens wirkt, (aiōn g165)
in order that he might show to everyone at all times in the future that he has acted toward us in an extremely kind way because of what Christ Jesus [did for us]. (aiōn g165)
auf daß er in den darauffolgenden Zeiten den überschwenglichen Reichtum seiner Gnade erzeigte durch Güte gegen uns in Christus Jesus. (aiōn g165)
and to enable everyone to understand clearly how God accomplished what he planned. God, who created everything, [has now revealed] this message, which he never revealed to anyone before. (aiōn g165)
und alle zu erleuchten darüber, was die Haushaltung des Geheimnisses sei, das von den Ewigkeiten her in dem Gott verborgen war, der alles erschaffen hat, (aiōn g165)
That is what God had always planned, and it is what he accomplished by what our Lord Jesus [has done]. (aiōn g165)
nach dem Vorsatz der Ewigkeiten, den er gefaßt hat in Christus Jesus, unserm Herrn, (aiōn g165)
Because of our relationship with Christ Jesus, may all (believers/those who belong to him) praise him forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
ihm sei die Ehre in der Gemeinde und in Christus Jesus, auf alle Geschlechter der Ewigkeit der Ewigkeiten! Amen. (aiōn g165)
You must do this because the fighting that we [believers] do is not only against human beings [SYN]. Instead, we are also fighting against evil spirits who rule and have authority over all that is evil [MET] in the world. And we are fighting against evil spirits who are in heavenly places (OR, everywhere). (aiōn g165)
denn unser Kampf richtet sich nicht wider Fleisch und Blut, sondern wider die Herrschaften, wider die Gewalten, wider die Weltbeherrscher dieser Finsternis, wider die geistlichen [Mächte] der Bosheit in den himmlischen [Regionen]. (aiōn g165)
[So], praise God our Father forever and ever! Amen! (aiōn g165)
Unsrem Gott und Vater aber sei die Ehre von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
[We did not know this message previously; that is, God] concealed it from [the people who lived in all] the previous ages, but he has now revealed it to his people. (aiōn g165)
[nämlich] das Geheimnis, das vor den Zeitaltern und Geschlechtern verborgen war, nun aber seinen Heiligen geoffenbart worden ist, (aiōn g165)
[Our Lord Jesus] will forbid them from ever coming near to him and near to the glory which he has [because he is so] powerful (OR, the glory that is manifested by his power). He will cause those people to suffer forever. (aiōnios g166)
welche Strafe erleiden werden, ewiges Verderben, von dem Angesicht des Herrn und von der Herrlichkeit seiner Kraft, (aiōnios g166)
Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios g166)
Er selbst aber, unser Herr Jesus Christus, und Gott, unser Vater, der uns geliebt und einen ewigen Trost und eine gute Hoffnung durch Gnade gegeben hat, (aiōnios g166)
Yet Christ Jesus acted mercifully to me in order that he might demonstrate [to people that he is perfectly patient with them]. He did that by his being patient with me, one who has sinned worse than everyone else. He wanted what he did for me (to be an example/to demonstrate his patience) to people who would [later] believe in him, and as a result would live forever. (aiōnios g166)
Aber darum ist mir Erbarmung widerfahren, damit an mir zuerst Jesus Christus alle Geduld erzeige, zum Beispiel denen, die an ihn glauben würden zum ewigen Leben. (aiōnios g166)
I desire that people will honor and praise the only [true] God forever! Even though no one can see him, he is the King who rules for all time, who will never die! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
Dem König der Ewigkeit aber, dem unvergänglichen, unsichtbaren, allein weisen Gott, sei Ehre und Ruhm von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Try earnestly and with all your energy/strength [MET] to live in accordance with what you believe. [Continue to do your tasks well in order that] you will know for sure that you will live eternally. Remember that [God] chose you to [live with him], and that when many elders were listening you said strongly ([what you believe/that you trust in Christ]). (aiōnios g166)
Kämpfe den guten Kampf des Glaubens, ergreife das ewige Leben, zu welchem du berufen bist und worüber du das gute Bekenntnis vor vielen Zeugen abgelegt hast. (aiōnios g166)
He is the only one who will never die, [and he lives in heaven surrounded by] light [that is so bright that] no one can approach it! He is the one whom no person has ever seen and whom no person is able to see! My desire is that all people will honor him and that he [will rule] powerfully [MTY] forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōnios g166)
der allein Unsterblichkeit hat, der in einem unzugänglichen Lichte wohnt, welchen kein Mensch gesehen hat noch sehen kann; Ihm sei Ehre und ewige Macht! Amen. (aiōnios g166)
Tell [the believers] who are rich here in this present world that they should not be proud, and that they should not trust in their many [possessions], because they cannot be certain [how long they will have them]. Teach them that instead of [trusting in their wealth, they should trust] in God. He is the one who generously gives us everything we have in order that we may enjoy it. (aiōn g165)
Den Reichen im jetzigen Zeitalter gebiete, daß sie nicht stolz seien, auch nicht ihre Hoffnung auf die Unbeständigkeit des Reichtums setzen, sondern auf den lebendigen Gott, der uns alles reichlich zum Genuß darreicht, (aiōn g165)
[God] saved us and chose us to conduct our lives in a pure way. It was not our doing good deeds/actions [that caused him to do this for us—something] that we did not deserve. Instead, before (time began/he created the world) he purposed/planned to [be kind to us] as a result of what Christ Jesus [would do for us]. (aiōnios g166)
der uns gerettet und mit einem heiligen Ruf berufen hat, nicht nach unsren Werken, sondern nach seinem eigenen Vorsatz und der Gnade, die uns in Christus Jesus vor ewigen Zeiten gegeben, (aiōnios g166)
Therefore I [willingly] endure all [that I am suffering] for the sake of those [whom God has] chosen. [I do this] in order that Christ Jesus will save them, too, and that they will be forever with [him in the] glorious [place where he is]. (aiōnios g166)
Darum erdulde ich alles um der Auserwählten willen, damit auch sie das Heil erlangen, das in Christus Jesus ist, mit ewiger Herrlichkeit. (aiōnios g166)
[I say that] because Demas has left me. He wanted very much [the good things that he might enjoy] [MTY] in this world [right now], and so he went to Thessalonica [city]. Crescens [went to serve the Lord] in Galatia [province], and Titus went to Dalmatia [district]. (aiōn g165)
Denn Demas hat mich verlassen, weil er diesen Weltlauf liebgewonnen hat, und ist nach Thessalonich gezogen, Crescens nach Galatien, Titus nach Dalmatien. (aiōn g165)
[Therefore, I am sure that] the Lord will rescue me from everything that is truly evil and will bring me safely to heaven, where he rules. Praise him forever! (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
Und der Herr wird mich von jedem boshaften Werk erlösen und mich retten in sein himmlisches Reich. Ihm sei die Ehre von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
[As a result of my doing these things, his people] confidently expect that God will cause them to live forever. God, who never lies, promised before he created the world that [his people] would live forever. (aiōnios g166)
auf Hoffnung ewigen Lebens, welches der untrügliche Gott vor ewigen Zeiten verheißen hat; (aiōnios g166)
God teaches/tells us [PRS] how to stop doing what he dislikes, and to stop desiring the things that (ungodly people/people who habitually do things that do not please God) desire [MTY]. He wants us to control our behavior and to do what is right and to do what pleases him while we live in this present age/time. (aiōn g165)
sie nimmt uns in Zucht, damit wir unter Verleugnung des ungöttlichen Wesens und der weltlichen Lüste vernünftig und gerecht und gottselig leben in der jetzigen Weltzeit, (aiōn g165)
He wanted to erase the record of our sins even though we did not deserve that, and he wanted us to receive all that [God desires] to give us. [These are the things that we] confidently expect to receive when we live [with him] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
damit wir, durch seine Gnade gerechtfertigt, der Hoffnung gemäß Erben des ewigen Lebens würden. (aiōnios g166)
Perhaps the reason that [God permitted] Onesimus to be separated from {to leave} you for a little while was that [he would believe in Christ, and as a result] you would have him (back/with you) forever! (aiōnios g166)
Denn vielleicht ist er darum auf eine kurze Zeit von dir getrennt worden, damit du ihn auf ewig besitzest, (aiōnios g166)
But now when this final age [is beginning], God has communicated to us [just once] by means of what (his Son/the man who was also God) [said and did. God] appointed him in order that he would possess everything [that truly belongs to God. God also appointed] him in order that he would create the universe. (aiōn g165)
welchen er zum Erben von allem eingesetzt, durch welchen er auch die Weltzeiten gemacht hat; (aiōn g165)
But on the other hand, [in the Scriptures it is written that God said] this to his Son: You [(sg)] who are [also] God will rule forever [MTY], and you will reign righteously over your kingdom [MTY]. (aiōn g165)
aber von dem Sohn: «Dein Thron, o Gott, währt von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit. Das Zepter deines Reiches ist ein gerades Zepter; (aiōn g165)
And he also said [to Christ what the Psalmist wrote] in another Scripture passage, You are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn g165)
Wie er auch an anderer Stelle spricht: «Du bist ein Priester in Ewigkeit nach der Ordnung Melchisedeks.» (aiōn g165)
By becoming (all [that] God intended him to be/perfect), [he has now] become fully qualified [to be our Supreme Priest. As a result, he is the one who saves] eternally all who obey him. (aiōnios g166)
und [so] zur Vollendung gelangt, ist er allen, die ihm gehorchen, der Urheber ewigen Heils geworden, (aiōnios g166)
[I am referring to the teaching about what] various [Jewish and Christian] rituals for purifying people [signify. I am referring to the teaching about how elders enable people to receive spiritual gifts by] laying hands [on them] [MTY]. [I am referring to the teaching that God will] ([cause] those who have died to live again/raise people from the dead). And [I am referring to the teaching that God] will judge [some people and punish them] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
mit der Lehre von Taufen, von der Handauflegung, der Totenauferstehung und dem ewigen Gericht. (aiōnios g166)
They have experienced that God’s message is good. And by what they have experienced [now], they know how [God will work] powerfully in the future. If those people reject [the message about Christ], it will not be possible for anyone to persuade them to turn away from their sinful behavior again! (aiōn g165)
und das gute Wort Gottes, dazu Kräfte der zukünftigen Welt geschmeckt haben, (aiōn g165)
Jesus went [into God’s presence] ahead of us [(inc)] to [help] us when he became a Supreme Priest eternally in the way that Melchizedek was a Supreme Priest. (aiōn g165)
wohin als Vorläufer Jesus für uns eingegangen ist, nach der Ordnung Melchisedeks Hoherpriester geworden in Ewigkeit. (aiōn g165)
[We know this] since [God] confirmed it in [the Scripture passage in which he said to his Son], You [(sg)] are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn g165)
denn es wird bezeugt: «Du bist Priester in Ewigkeit nach der Ordnung Melchisedeks.» (aiōn g165)
However, when he [appointed Christ to be a priest], it was by these words that [the Psalmist wrote in Scripture]: The Lord has solemnly declared [to the Messiah], —and he will not change his mind— “You will be a priest forever!” (aiōn g165)
dieser aber mit einem Eid durch den, der zu ihm sprach: «Der Herr hat geschworen und es wird ihn nicht gereuen: Du bist Priester in Ewigkeit»; (aiōn g165)
But because [Jesus] lives eternally, he will continue to be a Supreme Priest forever. (aiōn g165)
er aber hat, weil er in Ewigkeit bleibt, ein unübertragbares Priestertum. (aiōn g165)
[We need a Supreme Priest like] him, because in the laws [that God gave Moses] [PRS] the ones who would be appointed to be priests would be men who tended [to sin easily]. But [God] solemnly [declared] [PRS] after [he had given] his laws [to Moses] that [he would appoint] (his Son/the man who is also God) [to be a Supreme Priest. Now] ([his Son/the man who is also God]) has forever become all that God intends him to be. (aiōn g165)
Denn das Gesetz macht Menschen zu Hohenpriestern, die mit Schwachheit behaftet sind, das Wort des Eidschwurs aber, der nach der Zeit des Gesetzes erfolgte, den Sohn, welcher für alle Ewigkeit vollendet ist. (aiōn g165)
[When a Supreme Priest goes into the inner room in the tent each year, he takes] goats’ blood and calves’ blood [to offer as a sacrifice]. But Christ did not [do that. It was as though] he went into that very holy place only once, taking his own blood with him. By doing that, he eternally redeemed us. (aiōnios g166)
auch nicht durch das Blut von Böcken und Kälbern, sondern durch sein eigenes Blut ein für allemal in das Heiligtum eingegangen und hat eine ewige Erlösung erfunden. (aiōnios g166)
[So, because we know what] Christ [accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died for us] [PRS, MTY], we will be very certain that we are not guilty [of having] done those things [that those who are spiritually] dead do. [As a result], we can serve God, who is all-powerful. [The priests always offer to God animals] with no defects. Similarly, when Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] to God, he was sinless [MET]. He did that as a result of [God’s] eternal Spirit [helping him]. (aiōnios g166)
wieviel mehr wird das Blut Christi, der durch ewigen Geist sich selbst als ein tadelloses Opfer Gott dargebracht hat, unser Gewissen reinigen von toten Werken, zu dienen dem lebendigen Gott! (aiōnios g166)
[By] dying [for us], [Christ] ([redeemed/] free from the penalty for their sins) even those who disobeyed the [conditions of] (OR, [during the time of]) the first covenant. So, [because] no [one could be made perfect by obeying the old covenant], now Christ establishes [between God and people] a new covenant. He does that in order that those whom God has chosen may eternally have [the blessings that God] has promised them. (aiōnios g166)
Darum ist er auch Mittler eines neuen Bundes, damit (nach Verbüßung des Todes zur Erlösung von den unter dem ersten Bunde begangenen Übertretungen) die Berufenen das verheißene ewige Erbe empfingen. (aiōnios g166)
[If that were so], he would have needed to suffer [and shed his blood] repeatedly since [the time when God] created the world. But instead, in this final age, [Christ] has appeared once in order that by sacrificing himself he could cause [that people] no longer will be [punished for their] sins. (aiōn g165)
Nun aber ist er einmal gegen das Ende der Weltzeiten hin erschienen zur Aufhebung der Sünde durch das Opfer seiner selbst; (aiōn g165)
It is because we trust in God that we understand that he formed the universe by commanding [it to exist]. The result is that the things that we see were not made from things that already existed. (aiōn g165)
Durch Glauben erkennen wir, daß die Weltzeiten durch Gottes Wort bereitet worden sind, also das, was man sieht, aus Unsichtbarem entstanden ist. (aiōn g165)
Jesus Christ [is] the same now as he was previously, and he will be the same forever. (aiōn g165)
Jesus Christus ist gestern und heute und derselbe auch in Ewigkeit! (aiōn g165)
Jesus [provides for us], [protects us, and guides us as] a great shepherd does for his sheep [MET]. And God, who gives us [inner] peace, brought our Lord Jesus back to life. By doing that, God ratified his eternal covenant with us by the blood [that flowed from Jesus when he died on the] cross. (aiōnios g166)
Der Gott des Friedens aber, der den großen Hirten der Schafe von den Toten ausgeführt hat, mit dem Blut eines ewigen Bundes, unsren Herrn Jesus, (aiōnios g166)
So I pray that God will equip you with everything good [that you need in order] that you may do the things that he desires. May he accomplish in our lives whatever he considers pleasing as a result of Jesus Christ [equipping us]. May Jesus Christ be praised forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
der rüste euch mit allem Guten aus, seinen Willen zu tun, indem er selbst in euch schafft, was vor ihm wohlgefällig ist, durch Jesus Christus. Ihm sei die Ehre von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
[Just like a fire damages a forest] [MET], when we say things that are evil, [we harm many people]. What we say [MTY] reveals that we are very evil. What we say contaminates/defiles everything that we think and do [PRS, MET]. [Just like a flame of fire easily] causes [the whole surrounding area] [MET] to burn, what we say [MTY] can cause [others] to want to do evil. It is the devil himself [MTY] who causes us to say evil things. (Geenna g1067)
Auch die Zunge ist ein Feuer. Als die Welt der Ungerechtigkeit nimmt die Zunge ihren Platz ein unter unsren Gliedern; sie befleckt den ganzen Leib und steckt den Familienkreis in Brand und wird selbst von der Hölle in Brand gesteckt. (Geenna g1067)
[I ask you to do this, because you now have] a new life [MET]. It was not [by means of] something that will perish that you received this new life. Instead, it was [by means of] something that will last forever; that is, by believing the life-giving and enduring message of God. (aiōn g165)
als die da wiedergeboren sind nicht aus vergänglichem, sondern aus unvergänglichem Samen, durch das lebendige und bleibende Gotteswort! (aiōn g165)
but God’s message endures/lasts forever. This message [that endures/lasts] is the message [about Christ] that was proclaimed to you. (aiōn g165)
Das ist aber das Wort, welches euch als frohe Botschaft verkündigt worden ist. (aiōn g165)
Those who speak [to the congregation] should do that as though they are speaking the [very] words of God. Those who do kind things to others should do it with the strength that God gives them, in order that God may be honored by all this {that all this may honor God} as Jesus Christ [enables us to do it. I pray that we will] praise [God] (OR, [Jesus]) and allow him [to rule over us] forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
Wenn jemand redet, so rede er es als Gottes Wort; wenn jemand dient, so tue er es als aus dem Vermögen, das Gott darreicht, auf daß in allem Gott verherrlicht werde durch Jesus Christus, welchem die Herrlichkeit und die Gewalt gehört von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
God is the one who kindly helps us in every [situation], and [he is the one] who chose us to share his eternal glory/greatness [in heaven] because of our relationship with Christ. [And] after you have suffered for a while [because of things that people do to harm you], he will remove your spiritual defects/imperfections, he will strengthen you [spiritually] [DOU], and he will support you [emotionally]. (aiōnios g166)
Der Gott aller Gnade aber, der euch zu seiner ewigen Herrlichkeit in Christus berufen hat, wird euch selbst nach kurzem Leiden zubereiten, festigen, stärken, gründen. (aiōnios g166)
[I pray/desire that] he will [rule] powerfully forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
Sein ist die Kraft von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
and [God] will very wholeheartedly welcome you into the place where our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will rule [his people] forever. (aiōnios g166)
denn so wird euch der Eingang in das ewige Reich unsres Herrn und Retters Jesus Christus reichlich gewährt werden. (aiōnios g166)
God destroyed [LIT] the angels who sinned. He threw them into the worst place in hell and imprisoned them [there] in darkness in order to keep them there until he judges [and punishes them]. (Tartaroō g5020)
Denn wenn Gott die Engel, die gesündigt hatten, nicht verschonte, sondern sie in Banden der Finsternis der Hölle übergab, um sie zum Gericht aufzubehalten, (Tartaroō g5020)
[Instead, live in such a manner that you] experience more and more our Savior Jesus Christ being kind [to you], and that you get to know him [better and better]. 2 Peter 3:18b [I pray/desire that Jesus Christ] will be honored both now and forever! (aiōn g165)
Wachset dagegen in der Gnade und Erkenntnis unsres Herrn und Retters Jesus Christus! Sein ist die Herrlichkeit, sowohl jetzt, als für den Tag der Ewigkeit! (aiōn g165)
Because he came here [to the earth] and we have seen him, we proclaim to you clearly that the one whom we have seen is the [one who] has always lived. He was [previously] with his Father in heaven, but he came to live among us. (aiōnios g166)
und das Leben ist erschienen, und wir haben gesehen und bezeugen und verkündigen euch das ewige Leben, welches bei dem Vater war und uns erschienen ist; (aiōnios g166)
The [godless people in] the world [MTY], along with what they desire, will disappear, but those who do what God wants [them to do] will live forever! You know that it is now the final period of this age when there are liars who deny that Jesus is God’s Chosen One. But you have the power of God’s Spirit and you know what is true and what is false. So continue to live according to the true message that you heard when you began to believe in Christ, in order that you may continue to live united both to God’s Son and to the Father. (aiōn g165)
und die Welt vergeht mit ihrer Lust; wer aber den Willen Gottes tut, der bleibt in Ewigkeit. (aiōn g165)
And what God told us is that [he will cause us] to live forever! (aiōnios g166)
Und das ist die Verheißung, die er uns verheißen hat: das ewige Leben. (aiōnios g166)
Those who hate [any of] their fellow believers, [God considers] [MET] them [to be] murderers. And you know that no murderer has eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Jeder, der seinen Bruder haßt, ist ein Totschläger; und ihr wisset, daß kein Totschläger ewiges Leben bleibend in sich hat. (aiōnios g166)
This is what [God] says [to us]: “I have given you eternal life!” We will live forever if we have a close relationship with his Son. (aiōnios g166)
Und darin besteht das Zeugnis, daß uns Gott ewiges Leben gegeben hat, und dieses Leben ist in seinem Sohne. (aiōnios g166)
I have written this [letter] to you who believe that Jesus is [MTY] (God’s Son/the one who is also God) in order that you may know that you have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Solches habe ich euch geschrieben, damit ihr wisset, daß ihr ewiges Leben habt, die ihr an den Namen des Sohnes Gottes glaubt. (aiōnios g166)
We also know that (God’s Son/the one who is also God) has come [to us], and [we know] that he has enabled us to know God, the one who is really/truly God. So now we have a close relationship with [God because] we belong to Jesus Christ, the one who is the (Son of/man who is also) God. Jesus Christ is truly God, and [he is the one who enables us to have] eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
wir wissen aber, daß der Sohn Gottes gekommen ist und uns einen Sinn gegeben hat, daß wir den Wahrhaftigen erkennen. Und wir sind in dem Wahrhaftigen, in seinem Sohne Jesus Christus. Dieser ist der wahrhaftige Gott und das ewige Leben. (aiōnios g166)
All of us [believe God’s] true message. It is in our ([inner beings/hearts]) and we will continue [to believe it] forever! (aiōn g165)
um der Wahrheit willen, die in uns bleibt und mit uns sein wird in Ewigkeit. (aiōn g165)
And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios g126, questioned)
und daß er die Engel, welche ihr Fürstentum nicht bewahrten, sondern ihre eigene Behausung verließen, für das Gericht des großen Tages mit ewigen Banden unter der Finsternis verwahrt hat; (aïdios g126)
Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios g166, questioned)
wie Sodom und Gomorra und die umliegenden Städte, die in gleicher Weise wie diese die Unzucht bis aufs äußerste trieben und anderem Fleisch nachgingen, nun als Beispiel vor uns liegen, indem sie die Strafe eines ewigen Feuers erleiden. (aiōnios g166)
They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn g165, questioned)
wilde Wellen des Meeres, die ihre eigene Schande ausschäumen, Irrsterne, welchen das Dunkel der Finsternis in Ewigkeit aufbehalten ist. (aiōn g165)
Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios g166)
bewahret euch selbst in der Liebe Gottes und hoffet auf die Barmherzigkeit unsres Herrn Jesus Christus zum ewigen Leben. (aiōnios g166)
He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
Gott allein, unsrem Retter durch Jesus Christus, unsren Herrn, gebührt Herrlichkeit, Majestät, Macht und Gewalt vor aller Zeit, jetzt und in alle Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
He is [the one who] has caused us to become people whose lives God rules, and he has made us to be priests [who serve] God his Father. [As a result of this, we acknowledge that] Jesus Christ is eternally divine and eternally powerful. (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
Ihm, der uns liebt und uns durch sein Blut von unsren Sünden gewaschen und uns zu einem Königreich gemacht hat, zu Priestern für seinen Gott und Vater: ihm gehört die Herrlichkeit und die Macht in alle Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
The living [creatures praise], honor [DOU], and thank the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever. (aiōn g165)
Und so oft die lebendigen Wesen Ruhm und Ehre und Dank darbringen dem, der auf dem Throne sitzt, der da lebt von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit, (aiōn g165)
Whenever they do that, the 24 elders (prostrate themselves/kneel down) before the one who sits on the throne, and they worship him, the one who lives forever. They lay their crowns in front of the throne and sing: (aiōn g165)
so fallen die vierundzwanzig Ältesten nieder vor dem, der auf dem Throne sitzt, und beten den an, der da lebt von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit, und werfen ihre Kronen vor dem Throne nieder und sprechen: (aiōn g165)
I also heard every creature that is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the ocean, every creature in all those places, saying (OR, singing): “We must forever praise and honor the one who sits on the throne and the one who is like a lamb, May they reign with complete power forever!” (aiōn g165)
Und alle Geschöpfe, die im Himmel und auf Erden und unter der Erde und auf dem Meere sind, und alles, was darin ist, hörte ich sagen: Dem, der auf dem Throne sitzt, und dem Lamm gebührt das Lob und die Ehre und der Ruhm und die Gewalt von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! (aiōn g165)
This time I saw a pale horse [come out]. The one who sat on it is named ‘[The one who causes] death [PRS]’, and [the one that is named ‘The place where dead people go’] accompanied him. [God] gave them authority over one quarter of the people on earth to incite them to kill each other with weapons [SYN], and also authority to kill them (by [causing them to] starve, by [their causing them to become] sick from epidemics, and by [their causing them to be attacked by] wild animals. (Hadēs g86)
Und ich sah, und siehe, ein fahles Pferd, und der darauf saß, dessen Name ist: der Tod; und das Totenreich folgte ihm nach, und ihnen wurde Macht gegeben über den vierten Teil der Erde, zu töten mit dem Schwert und mit Hunger und mit Pest und durch die wilden Tiere der Erde. (Hadēs g86)
They said, “May it be so! [We(exc)] praise, thank, and honor [you], our [(exc)] God, forever! [We(exc) acknowledge] that you are completely wise, the powerful one, who is forever able to accomplish everything he wants to. (May everyone acknowlege that it is so!/Amen!)” (aiōn g165)
und sprachen: Amen! Lobpreisung und Ruhm und Weisheit und Dank und Ehre und Macht und Stärke sei unsrem Gott von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen. (aiōn g165)
The fifth angel blew his trumpet. Then I saw [an evil angel. He was like] a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. He was given {[Someone] gave him} the key to the shaft [that descended] ([to] the underworld/[to] the deep dark pit). (Abyssos g12)
Und der fünfte Engel posaunte; und ich sah einen Stern, der vom Himmel auf die Erde gefallen war, und es wurde ihm der Schlüssel zum Schlunde des Abgrunds gegeben. (Abyssos g12)
When he opened that shaft, smoke arose from it like smoke from a huge burning furnace. The smoke prevented [anyone from seeing] the sky and the light of the sun. (Abyssos g12)
Und er öffnete den Schlund des Abgrunds, und ein Rauch stieg empor aus dem Schlunde, wie der Rauch eines großen Ofens, und die Sonne und die Luft wurden verfinstert von dem Rauch des Schlundes. (Abyssos g12)
The king who ruled over them was the angel of the underworld. His name in the Hebrew language is Abaddon. In the Greek language it is Apollyon. [Both of] those names [mean ‘Destroyer’]. (Abyssos g12)
Und sie haben als König über sich den Engel des Abgrunds; sein Name ist auf hebräisch Abaddon, und im Griechischen hat er den Namen Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)
and he asked the one who lives forever, the one who created heaven and everything that is in it, [who created] the earth and everything that is in it, and [who created] the ocean and everything that is in it, to affirm that what he said was true. [He said that he] would surely no longer delay [what he had planned to do]. (aiōn g165)
und schwur bei dem, der von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit lebt, der den Himmel geschaffen hat und was darin ist, und die Erde und was darauf ist, und das Meer und was darin ist: es wird keine Zeit mehr sein; (aiōn g165)
When they have finished proclaiming [to people the message from God], the beast that comes up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit) will attack them, overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos g12)
Und wenn sie ihr Zeugnis vollendet haben, wird das Tier, das aus dem Abgrund heraufsteigt, mit ihnen Krieg führen und sie überwinden und sie töten. (Abyssos g12)
Then the seventh angel blew [his trumpet]. Angels in heaven shouted loudly, “Our Lord [God] and the Messiah [whom he has appointed] can now govern [everyone in] [MTY] the world, and they will continue to rule people forever!” (aiōn g165)
Und der siebente Engel posaunte; da erschollen laute Stimmen im Himmel, die sprachen: Das Weltreich unsres Herrn und seines Gesalbten ist zustande gekommen, und er wird regieren von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! (aiōn g165)
I saw another angel that was flying between the sky and heaven. He was bringing [God’s] eternal good message [to earth], in order that he might proclaim it to people who live on the earth. He will proclaim it to every nation, [to every] tribe, [to speakers of every] language [MTY], and [to every] people-[group]. (aiōnios g166)
Und ich sah einen andern Engel durch die Mitte des Himmels fliegen, der hatte ein ewiges Evangelium den Bewohnern der Erde zu verkündigen, allen Nationen und Stämmen und Zungen und Völkern. (aiōnios g166)
The smoke [from the fire] that torments them will rise forever. [They will] be tormented {[God will] torment them} continually, day and night. [That is what will happen to] the people who worship the beast and its image and who allow its name to be marked on them {allow [its agent] to mark them with its name}.” (aiōn g165)
Und der Rauch ihrer Qual steigt auf von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit; und keine Ruhe haben Tag und Nacht, die das Tier und sein Bild anbeten, und wer das Malzeichen seines Namens annimmt! (aiōn g165)
One of the four living [creatures] gave [each of] the seven angels a golden bowl, filled with [wine/liquid. That wine/liquid symbolized] that God, who lives forever, would severely punish [rebellious people]. (aiōn g165)
Und eines der vier lebendigen Wesen gab den sieben Engeln sieben goldene Schalen voll vom Zorn Gottes, der da lebt von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit. (aiōn g165)
The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos g12)
Das Tier, welches du gesehen hast, war und ist nicht mehr, und es wird aus dem Abgrund heraufkommen und ins Verderben laufen; und die auf Erden wohnen, deren Namen nicht geschrieben sind im Buche des Lebens von Grundlegung der Welt an, werden sich verwundern, wenn sie das Tier sehen, daß es war und nicht ist und da sein wird. (Abyssos g12)
[The crowd] shouted a second time saying: (Hallelujah!/Praise God!) The smoke of the fire that is burning the cities will rise forever! (aiōn g165)
Und abermals sprachen sie: Halleluja! Und ihr Rauch steigt auf von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! (aiōn g165)
The beast and the false prophet were captured {[He] captured the beast and the false prophet}. The false prophet is the one who had performed miracles in the beast’s presence. By doing that he had deceived the people who had accepted the beast’s mark [on their foreheads] and who worshipped its image. The beast and the false prophet were thrown {[He] threw the beast and the one who falsely said that he spoke messages that came directly from God} alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
I saw an angel coming down from heaven. He had the key to the deep dark pit, and he was carrying a large chain in his hand. (Abyssos g12)
Und ich sah einen Engel aus dem Himmel herabsteigen, der hatte den Schlüssel des Abgrundes und eine große Kette in seiner Hand. (Abyssos g12)
The angel threw him into the deep dark pit. He shut [the door of the pit], locked it, and sealed it [to prevent anyone from opening it]. He did that in order that Satan might no longer deceive [the people of the] nations [MTY], until those 1,000 years are ended. After that [time], Satan must be released {[God/God’s angel] must release Satan} for a short time [in order that he can do what God has planned]. (Abyssos g12)
und warf ihn in den Abgrund und schloß zu und versiegelte über ihm, damit er die Völker nicht mehr verführte, bis die tausend Jahre vollendet wären. Und nach diesen muß er auf kurze Zeit losgelassen werden. (Abyssos g12)
The devil, who had deceived those people, will be thrown {[God’s angel] will throw the devil, who had deceived those people} into the lake of burning sulfur. [This is the same lake] into which both the beast and the false prophet had been [thrown] {[he] had [thrown] both the beast and the false prophet}. [As a result], they will continually suffer severely forever. (aiōn g165, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
[The people whose bodies were buried in the] sea [became alive again in order to stand before God’s throne]. Everyone who had been buried on the land (OR, Every person who was waiting in the place where dead people stay) [became alive again, in order to stand before the throne]. [God] judged each one of them according to what each one had done. (Hadēs g86)
Und das Meer gab die Toten, die darin waren, und der Tod und das Totenreich gaben die Toten, die darin waren; und sie wurden gerichtet, ein jeder nach seinen Werken. (Hadēs g86)
But those who are cowardly, those who do not believe [in me], those [who do] detestable things, those who are murderers, those who sin sexually, those who commit sorcery, those who worship idols, and every liar, will [all suffer] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. [Anyone who suffers in that lake] will be dying the second time.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
There will never again be night. [God’s servants] will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will shine his light upon them. And they will rule forever. (aiōn g165)
Und es wird keine Nacht mehr sein, und sie bedürfen nicht des Lichtes eines Leuchters, noch des Sonnenscheines; denn Gott der Herr wird sie erleuchten, und sie werden herrschen von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit. (aiōn g165)
Questioned verse translations do not contain Aionian Glossary words, but may wrongly imply eternal or Hell

[Because he is] superior to me, I am not worthy [even to do a menial task for him, such as] to carry his sandals. He will put [his] Holy Spirit [within] you [to truly change] the way you live [MET], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [in hell]. (questioned)
“[Going to] where people live eternally [with God in heaven] is difficult. [It is like] going along a narrow road [PRS, MET] that leads to a narrow gate. Not many people find that way. [The way] that most [people take] is easy, [but it results in their being punished] {[God punishing them]} [in hell. That way is like a] wide road that people walk on [PRS, MET] until they reach the wide gate, but that road and that gate lead to where [they] will be destroyed {[God] will destroy them}. Many people enter that gate. So I [am telling you to leave the wide road and] enter the narrow gate [to heaven].” (questioned)

“You [people who live in] Chorazin [city] [MTY] and you [people who live in] Bethsaida [city] [MTY] will suffer terribly in hell!

If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in [the ancient cities of] Tyre and Sidon, the [wicked people who lived there] long ago would have sat in ashes, wearing coarse cloth [to show that they were sorry for their sins]. (questioned)
They will throw those people into the fires of [hell]. There those people will weep and grind their teeth [because of the great pain that they are suffering]. (questioned)
They will throw the wicked people into the fire [in hell]. And those wicked people will weep and gnash their teeth [because of the intense pain they are suffering].” (questioned)
Do not pay any attention to [the Pharisees]. They [do not help people who do not know God’s truth] to [understand it, just like] blind guides [do not help] blind [people to perceive where they should go] [MET]. If a blind person [tries to] lead [another] blind person, they will both fall into a big hole [MET]. [Similarly, both the Pharisees and their disciples will end up in hell].” (questioned)
In the same way [that shepherds do not want one of] their [sheep to stray away], so [God], your Father in heaven, does not want [even] one of these children to go to hell.” (questioned)
John replied to them all, “No, [I am not]. I used [only] water when I baptized you. But [the Messiah] will soon come! He is far greater than I am.

If [the things that we have taught] are not valuable and long-lasting [MET], [we will not get a reward]. We will be saved {[God] will save us} [from hell], but [that is all that we will get. We will be like a man who] escapes from a fire [without saving any of his possessions]. (questioned)
And those people who died [EUP] [while they were trusting] in Christ will go to hell. (questioned)
To those who [are on the way to hell, our message is like] [MET] a foul smell [because it is about dying] and being separated from God forever. But, to those [on the way to heaven, the message that we teach is like] a pure fragrant smell, [because we tell them] that they will live [forever with God. As we think about that, we think] (no one is able [to do] such important work [for God!]/how can anyone be able [to do] such important work [for God]?) [RHQ] (questioned)
