Markus 1
1 Inilah permulaan Injil tentang Yesus Kristus, Anak Allah.
([This is/I want to tell you]) the good message about Jesus Christ, the Son of God (OR, the man who was also God). [What I want to tell you] begins just like the prophet Isaiah [said it would begin, when] he wrote [these words that God said to Jesus: ] Listen! I am sending my messenger ahead of you. He will prepare [people for] your [coming].
2 Seperti ada tertulis dalam kitab nabi Yesaya: "Lihatlah, Aku menyuruh utusan-Ku mendahului Engkau, ia akan mempersiapkan jalan bagi-Mu;
3 ada suara orang yang berseru-seru di padang gurun: Persiapkanlah jalan untuk Tuhan, luruskanlah jalan bagi-Nya",
He will call out to people [who pass by where he is] in the desolate area, “As people improve and straighten out pathways [before an important official arrives] [MET], make [yourselves] ready [DOU] [in order that you will be prepared when] the Lord [comes].”
4 demikianlah Yohanes Pembaptis tampil di padang gurun dan menyerukan: "Bertobatlah dan berilah dirimu dibaptis dan Allah akan mengampuni dosamu."
[The messenger that Isaiah predicted was] John. [People called him] ‘The Baptizer’. In the desolate area near the Jordan River he kept telling people, “If you want God to forgive you for having sinned, you must turn away from your sinful behavior [before you ask me to] baptize [you].”
5 Lalu datanglah kepadanya orang-orang dari seluruh daerah Yudea dan semua penduduk Yerusalem, dan sambil mengaku dosanya mereka dibaptis di sungai Yordan.
A great number [HYP] of people who lived in Jerusalem [city] and [elsewhere] in the Judea [district] were going out to where John was. There, [after hearing John’s message], they [responded by] confessing the sinful things [that they had done]. Then they were being baptized by John {John was baptizing them} in the Jordan River.
6 Yohanes memakai jubah bulu unta dan ikat pinggang kulit, dan makanannya belalang dan madu hutan.
John wore [rough] clothes made of camel’s hair. And [as the prophet Elijah had done], he wore a leather belt around his waist; and what he ate was [only] grasshoppers and honey [that he found] in that desolate area.
7 Inilah yang diberitakannya: "Sesudah aku akan datang Ia yang lebih berkuasa dari padaku; membungkuk dan membuka tali kasut-Nyapun aku tidak layak.
He was preaching, “Very shortly a man will come who is very great. I [am nothing compared to him. Because he is so superior to me], I am not even worthy to [serve him like a slave] by stooping down and untying his sandals.
8 Aku membaptis kamu dengan air, tetapi Ia akan membaptis kamu dengan Roh Kudus."
I used [only] water when I baptized you [because you said that you wanted to change your lives], but he will put his Holy Spirit [within] you [to truly change your lives].”
9 Pada waktu itu datanglah Yesus dari Nazaret di tanah Galilea, dan Ia dibaptis di sungai Yordan oleh Yohanes.
During that time [when John was preaching], Jesus came from Nazareth [town], which is in Galilee [district]. He went to [where John was preaching] and he was baptized by John {John baptized him} in the Jordan [River].
10 Pada saat Ia keluar dari air, Ia melihat langit terkoyak, dan Roh seperti burung merpati turun ke atas-Nya.
Immediately after [Jesus] came up out of the water, he saw heaven opened up [and he saw] the Spirit [of God] descending on himself. He came in the form of a dove.
11 Lalu terdengarlah suara dari sorga: "Engkaulah Anak-Ku yang Kukasihi, kepada-Mulah Aku berkenan."
And [God] [MTY] spoke to him from heaven saying, “You are my Son, whom I love dearly. I am very pleased with you.”
12 Segera sesudah itu Roh memimpin Dia ke padang gurun.
(Then/Right away) the Spirit [of God] sent Jesus into the desolate area.
13 Di padang gurun itu Ia tinggal empat puluh hari lamanya, dicobai oleh Iblis. Ia berada di sana di antara binatang-binatang liar dan malaikat-malaikat melayani Dia.
He was there for 40 days. During that time, he was tempted by Satan {Satan tempted him}. There were wild animals [there] also. But angels took care of him.
14 Sesudah Yohanes ditangkap datanglah Yesus ke Galilea memberitakan Injil Allah,
Later, after John was put in prison {after [soldiers] put John in prison} [because he had rebuked the governor Herod Antipas for his sins], Jesus went to Galilee [district]. There he was preaching the good message [that came] from God.
15 kata-Nya: "Waktunya telah genap; Kerajaan Allah sudah dekat. Bertobatlah dan percayalah kepada Injil!"
He was repeatedly saying, “Now is the time when God will begin to rule people’s lives [in a new way]. [So] turn away from your sinful behavior! Believe the good message [in order] ([to belong to him/to become those whose lives he will rule])!”
16 Ketika Yesus sedang berjalan menyusur danau Galilea, Ia melihat Simon dan Andreas, saudara Simon. Mereka sedang menebarkan jala di danau, sebab mereka penjala ikan.
[One day], while Jesus was walking along by Galilee Lake, he saw [two men], Simon and Simon’s [younger] brother, Andrew. They were casting their [fishing] net into the lake. They [earned money by] catching [and selling] fish.
17 Yesus berkata kepada mereka: "Mari, ikutlah Aku dan kamu akan Kujadikan penjala manusia."
Then Jesus said to them, “[Just like you have been] gathering fish, come with me and I will [teach] you how to [gather people to become my disciples]” [MET].
18 Lalu merekapun segera meninggalkan jalanya dan mengikuti Dia.
Immediately they abandoned [the work that they were doing with] their nets, and they went with him.
19 Dan setelah Yesus meneruskan perjalanan-Nya sedikit lagi, dilihat-Nya Yakobus, anak Zebedeus, dan Yohanes, saudaranya, sedang membereskan jala di dalam perahu.
After they had gone on a little further, Jesus saw [two other men], James and James’ [younger] brother, John. They were the sons of [a man named] Zebedee. They were both in a boat mending [fishing] nets.
20 Yesus segera memanggil mereka dan mereka meninggalkan ayahnya, Zebedeus, di dalam perahu bersama orang-orang upahannya lalu mengikuti Dia.
As soon as Jesus saw them, he told them that [they should leave their work and to come with him]. So they left their father, [who remained] in the boat with the hired servants, and they went away with Jesus.
21 Mereka tiba di Kapernaum. Setelah hari Sabat mulai, Yesus segera masuk ke dalam rumah ibadat dan mengajar.
[Later] Jesus [and those disciples] arrived at Capernaum [town]. On the next (Sabbath/Jewish rest day), after Jesus had entered (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place), he began teaching [the people who had gathered there].
22 Mereka takjub mendengar pengajaran-Nya, sebab Ia mengajar mereka sebagai orang yang berkuasa, tidak seperti ahli-ahli Taurat.
They were continually amazed at the way he taught. [He did] not [just teach what others had taught], like the men who teach the [Jewish] laws did. [They habitually just repeated what other people had taught]. Instead, he taught with [his own] authority.
23 Pada waktu itu di dalam rumah ibadat itu ada seorang yang kerasukan roh jahat. Orang itu berteriak:
Suddenly, [while he was teaching], a man [appeared] in their worship place who had an evil spirit in him, and he shouted,
24 "Apa urusan-Mu dengan kami, hai Yesus orang Nazaret? Engkau datang hendak membinasakan kami? Aku tahu siapa Engkau: Yang Kudus dari Allah."
“Jesus, from Nazareth [town, since] we [evil spirits] have nothing in common with you, ([do not interfere with us]!/what do you want with us [evil spirits]?) [RHQ] (Do not destroy us [now]!/Have you come to destroy us [now]?) [RHQ] I know who you are. I know that you are the holy one [who has come] from God!”
25 Tetapi Yesus menghardiknya, kata-Nya: "Diam, keluarlah dari padanya!"
Jesus rebuked [the evil spirit], saying, “Be quiet! And come out [of the man]!”
26 Roh jahat itu menggoncang-goncang orang itu, dan sambil menjerit dengan suara nyaring ia keluar dari padanya.
The evil spirit shook the man hard. He screamed loudly, and then he came out of the man [and left].
27 Mereka semua takjub, sehingga mereka memperbincangkannya, katanya: "Apa ini? Suatu ajaran baru. Ia berkata-kata dengan kuasa. Roh-roh jahatpun diperintah-Nya dan mereka taat kepada-Nya."
All [the people who were there] were amazed. As a result, they discussed this among themselves, [exclaiming], “(This is [amazing]!/What is this?) [RHQ] Not only does he teach in a new and authoritative way, but also the evil spirits obey him [when] he commands [them]!”
28 Lalu tersebarlah dengan cepat kabar tentang Dia ke segala penjuru di seluruh Galilea.
The people very soon told [many others] throughout the whole Galilee district what Jesus [had done].
29 Sekeluarnya dari rumah ibadat itu Yesus dengan Yakobus dan Yohanes pergi ke rumah Simon dan Andreas.
After they left (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place), [Jesus, Simon and Andrew], along with James and John went directly to Simon and Andrew’s house.
30 Ibu mertua Simon terbaring karena sakit demam. Mereka segera memberitahukan keadaannya kepada Yesus.
Simon’s mother-in-law was lying in bed because she had a [high] fever. Right away someone told Jesus about her [being sick].
31 Ia pergi ke tempat perempuan itu, dan sambil memegang tangannya Ia membangunkan dia, lalu lenyaplah demamnya. Kemudian perempuan itu melayani mereka.
He went to her, and helped her up by taking hold of her hand. She recovered [at once] from the fever, and then she [got up and] served them [some food].
32 Menjelang malam, sesudah matahari terbenam, dibawalah kepada Yesus semua orang yang menderita sakit dan yang kerasukan setan.
That evening, after the sun had gone down [and restrictions about travel on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]) [were ended], some people brought to Jesus many people who were sick and others whose lives evil spirits were controlling.
33 Maka berkerumunlah seluruh penduduk kota itu di depan pintu.
[It seemed as though] everyone [HYP, MTY] [who lived in] the town was gathered at the doorway [of Simon’s house].
34 Ia menyembuhkan banyak orang yang menderita bermacam-macam penyakit dan mengusir banyak setan; Ia tidak memperbolehkan setan-setan itu berbicara, sebab mereka mengenal Dia.
Jesus healed many people who were ill with various diseases. He also expelled many demons [from people]. He did not allow the demons to tell people [about him], because they knew that he [had come from God, and for various reasons he did not want everyone to know that yet].
35 Pagi-pagi benar, waktu hari masih gelap, Ia bangun dan pergi ke luar. Ia pergi ke tempat yang sunyi dan berdoa di sana.
Jesus got up very early [the next morning] while it was still dark. He left [the house] and went away [from the town] to a place where there were no people. Then he prayed there.
36 Tetapi Simon dan kawan-kawannya menyusul Dia;
Simon and his companions searched for him. When they found him, [wanting him to go back to town to help other people], they said to him,
37 waktu menemukan Dia mereka berkata: "Semua orang mencari Engkau."
“[Come back to the town with us, because] many [HYP] people [in Capernaum] are looking for you!”
38 Jawab-Nya: "Marilah kita pergi ke tempat lain, ke kota-kota yang berdekatan, supaya di sana juga Aku memberitakan Injil, karena untuk itu Aku telah datang."
He said to them, “[No], let’s go on to the neighboring towns in order that I can preach there also, because the reason that I came [into the world] was to [preach to people] in many places!”
39 Lalu pergilah Ia ke seluruh Galilea dan memberitakan Injil dalam rumah-rumah ibadat mereka dan mengusir setan-setan.
So they went throughout Galilee [district. As they did so, each (Sabbath/Jewish rest day]) he preached in (synagogues/Jewish meeting places). He was also expelling evil spirits [from people].
40 Seorang yang sakit kusta datang kepada Yesus, dan sambil berlutut di hadapan-Nya ia memohon bantuan-Nya, katanya: "Kalau Engkau mau, Engkau dapat mentahirkan aku."
[One day] a man who had [a bad skin disease called] leprosy came to Jesus. He knelt down in front of Jesus and then he pleaded with him saying, “[Please heal me, because I know] you are able to heal me if you want to!”
41 Maka tergeraklah hati-Nya oleh belas kasihan, lalu Ia mengulurkan tangan-Nya, menjamah orang itu dan berkata kepadanya: "Aku mau, jadilah engkau tahir."
Jesus felt very sorry for him. [So he ignored the religious laws about coming close to people who had that disease]. He reached out his hand and touched the man. Then he said to him, “Since I am willing [to heal you], be healed {I heal you} [now]!”
42 Seketika itu juga lenyaplah penyakit kusta orang itu, dan ia menjadi tahir.
Immediately the man was healed! He was no longer a leper!
43 Segera Ia menyuruh orang itu pergi dengan peringatan keras:
Jesus spoke sternly to him before he sent him away.
44 "Ingatlah, janganlah engkau memberitahukan apa-apa tentang hal ini kepada siapapun, tetapi pergilah, perlihatkanlah dirimu kepada imam dan persembahkanlah untuk pentahiranmu persembahan, yang diperintahkan oleh Musa, sebagai bukti bagi mereka."
What Jesus said was, “Go to a local priest and show yourself to him [in order that he may examine you and verify that you are healed]. Then, [after the priest tells the local people], they will know [that you have been healed, and you will be able to associate with them again]. Make sure that you do not tell others [about what happened] Then go to [Jerusalem and take to the priest what Moses commanded that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer, in order that he] may offer it [as a sacrifice to God].”
45 Tetapi orang itu pergi memberitakan peristiwa itu dan menyebarkannya kemana-mana, sehingga Yesus tidak dapat lagi terang-terangan masuk ke dalam kota. Ia tinggal di luar di tempat-tempat yang sepi; namun orang terus juga datang kepada-Nya dari segala penjuru.
The man went [and presented himself to the priest. But then] he began to tell many people about [how Jesus had healed him] [DOU]. As a result, Jesus was no longer able to enter any town publicly [because the crowds would surround him]. Instead, he remained outside [the towns] in places [where no people lived]. But people kept coming to him from all over that region.
