< Matthew 19 >
1 When Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee and came into the borders of Judea beyond the Jordan.
Kui Jeesus lõpetas kõnelemise, lahkus ta Galileast, ning läks Jordani jõe taha Juuda aladele.
2 Great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
Suured rahvahulgad järgisid teda ja ta tegi terveks need, kes rahva seast haiged olid.
3 Pharisees came to him, testing him and saying, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?”
Mõned variserid tulid teda proovile panema. „Kas mehel on lubatud oma naisest mingil põhjusel lahutada?“küsisid nad.
4 He answered, “Haven’t you read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,
Jeesus vastas: „Kas te ei ole lugenud, et Jumal, kes lõi alguses inimesed, tegi nad meheks ja naiseks?
5 and said, ‘For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh’?
Ta ütles: „Sel põhjusel jätab mees maha oma isa ja ema ning ühineb oma naisega ja nemad kaks saavad üheks.“
6 So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, don’t let man tear apart.”
Nüüd ei ole nad enam kaks, vaid üks. Keegi ei tohi eraldada seda, mille Jumal on liitnud.“
7 They asked him, “Why then did Moses command us to give her a certificate of divorce and divorce her?”
„Miks siis Mooses andis seaduse, et mees võib oma naisest lahutada, kui annab talle lahutustunnistuse, ja ta minema saata?“küsisid nad.
8 He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.
„Teie kalgi südame pärast lubas Mooses teil oma naisest lahutada, aga alguses ei olnud see nii, “vastas Jeesus.
9 I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and he who marries her when she is divorced commits adultery.”
„Ma ütlen teile, igaüks, kes lahutab oma naisest muidu kui seksuaalse ebamoraalsuse tõttu ja abiellub siis teise naisega, rikub abielu.“
10 His disciples said to him, “If this is the case of the man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.”
„Kui olukord mehe ja naise vahel on selline, siis on parem mitte abielluda!“ütlesid ta jüngrid talle.
11 But he said to them, “Not all men can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given.
„Kõik ei suuda seda õpetust vastu võtta, vaid ainult need, kellele see on antud, “lausus Jeesus neile.
12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.”
„Mõni on sündinud eunuhh, mõne on eunuhhiks teinud inimesed ning mõni otsustab olla eunuhh taevariigi pärast. Need, kes suudavad selle vastu võtta, peaks seda tegema.“
13 Then little children were brought to him that he should lay his hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them.
Inimesed tõid väikesed lapsed tema juurde, et ta neid õnnistaks ja nende eest palvetaks. Kuid jüngrid keelasid neid.
14 But Jesus said, “Allow the little children, and don’t forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these.”
Aga Jeesus ütles: „Laske lastel minu juurde tulla. Ärge takistage neid. Taevariik kuulub neile, kes on nendesarnased!“
15 He laid his hands on them, and departed from there.
Ta pani oma käed nende peale ja õnnistas neid ning siis ta lahkus.
16 Behold, one came to him and said, “Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?” (aiōnios )
Üks mees tuli Jeesuse juurde ja küsis temalt: „Õpetaja, mida head ma pean tegema, et igavest elu saada?“ (aiōnios )
17 He said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”
„Miks sa küsid minult, mis on hea?“vastas Jeesus. „On ainult üks, kes on hea. Aga kui tahad igavest elu saada, siis pea käske.“
18 He said to him, “Which ones?” Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder.’ ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ ‘You shall not steal.’ ‘You shall not offer false testimony.’
„Missuguseid?“küsis mees temalt. „Ära tapa, ära riku abielu, ära varasta, ära anna valetunnistust,
19 ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ And, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”
austa oma isa ja ema ning armasta oma kaasinimest nagu iseennast, “vastas Jeesus.
20 The young man said to him, “All these things I have observed from my youth. What do I still lack?”
„Olen kõiki neid käske pidanud, “lausus noormees. „Mida ma veel pean tegema?“
21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
Jeesus kostis talle: „Kui sa tahad täiuslik olla, siis mine ja müü oma vara ära, anna raha vaestele ja sul on aare taevas. Siis tule ja järgi mind.“
22 But when the young man heard this, he went away sad, for he was one who had great possessions.
Kui noormees kuulis Jeesuse vastust, läks ta väga kurvalt ära, sest tal oli palju vara.
23 Jesus said to his disciples, “Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty.
„Ma räägin teile tõtt, “ütles Jeesus oma jüngritele, „rikastel inimestel on raske taevariiki siseneda.
24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
Ma ütlen teile ka seda: lihtsam on kaamelil läbi nõelsilma minna, kui rikkal inimesel Jumala riiki siseneda.“
25 When the disciples heard it, they were exceedingly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
Kui jüngrid seda kuulsid, olid nad väga üllatunud ja küsisid: „Kes võib siis päästetud saada?“
26 Looking at them, Jesus said, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Jeesus vaatas neid ja ütles: „Inimlikust vaatenurgast on see võimatu, aga Jumalaga koos on kõik võimalik.“
27 Then Peter answered, “Behold, we have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?”
Peetrus vastas talle: „Vaata, me oleme jätnud kõik maha ja sind järginud. Mis tasu me saame?“
28 Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Jeesus vastas: „Ma ütlen teile tõtt: kui kõik on uueks loodud ja inimese Poeg istub oma hiilgaval troonil, siis teie, kes te olete mind järginud, istute ka kaheteistkümnel troonil ning mõistate kohut Iisraeli kaheteistkümne suguharu üle.
29 Everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, will receive one hundred times, and will inherit eternal life. (aiōnios )
Kõik need, kes on minu pärast jätnud maha oma kodu, vennad, õed, isa, ema, lapsed ja põllud, saavad sada korda rohkem tagasi ja igavese elu. (aiōnios )
30 But many will be last who are first, and first who are last.
Sest paljud, kes on esimesed, jäävad viimasteks, ja paljud, kes on viimased, saavad esimesteks.
