Matius 17
1 Enam hari kemudian Yesus membawa Petrus, Yakobus dan Yohanes saudaranya, dan bersama-sama dengan mereka Ia naik ke sebuah gunung yang tinggi. Di situ mereka sendiri saja.
After six days, Yeshua [Salvation] took with him Peter [Rock], James [Surplanter], and John [Yah is gracious] his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain by themselves.
2 Lalu Yesus berubah rupa di depan mata mereka; wajah-Nya bercahaya seperti matahari dan pakaian-Nya menjadi putih bersinar seperti terang.
He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
3 Maka nampak kepada mereka Musa dan Elia sedang berbicara dengan Dia.
Behold, Moses [Drawn out] and Elijah [My God Yah] appeared to them talking with him.
4 Kata Petrus kepada Yesus: "Tuhan, betapa bahagianya kami berada di tempat ini. Jika Engkau mau, biarlah kudirikan di sini tiga kemah, satu untuk Engkau, satu untuk Musa dan satu untuk Elia."
Peter [Rock] answered, and said to Yeshua [Salvation], “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let’s make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses [Drawn out], and one for Elijah [My God Yah].”
5 Dan tiba-tiba sedang ia berkata-kata turunlah awan yang terang menaungi mereka dan dari dalam awan itu terdengar suara yang berkata: "Inilah Anak yang Kukasihi, kepada-Nyalah Aku berkenan, dengarkanlah Dia."
While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them. Behold, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my agapetos ·beloved, esteemed· Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”
6 Mendengar itu tersungkurlah murid-murid-Nya dan mereka sangat ketakutan.
When the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very afraid.
7 Lalu Yesus datang kepada mereka dan menyentuh mereka sambil berkata: "Berdirilah, jangan takut!"
Yeshua [Salvation] came and touched them and said, “Get up, and don’t be afraid.”
8 Dan ketika mereka mengangkat kepala, mereka tidak melihat seorangpun kecuali Yesus seorang diri.
Lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Yeshua [Salvation] alone.
9 Pada waktu mereka turun dari gunung itu, Yesus berpesan kepada mereka: "Jangan kamu ceriterakan penglihatan itu kepada seorangpun sebelum Anak Manusia dibangkitkan dari antara orang mati."
As they were coming down from the mountain, Yeshua [Salvation] enjoined them, saying, “Don’t tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead.”
10 Lalu murid-murid-Nya bertanya kepada-Nya: "Kalau demikian mengapa ahli-ahli Taurat berkata bahwa Elia harus datang dahulu?"
His disciples asked him, saying, “Then why do the Torah-Teachers say that Elijah [My God Yah] must come first?”
11 Jawab Yesus: "Memang Elia akan datang dan memulihkan segala sesuatu
Yeshua [Salvation] answered them, “Elijah [My God Yah] indeed comes first, and will restore all things,
12 dan Aku berkata kepadamu: Elia sudah datang, tetapi orang tidak mengenal dia, dan memperlakukannya menurut kehendak mereka. Demikian juga Anak Manusia akan menderita oleh mereka."
but I tell you that Elijah [My God Yah] has come already, and they didn’t recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also suffer by them.”
13 Pada waktu itu mengertilah murid-murid Yesus bahwa Ia berbicara tentang Yohanes Pembaptis.
Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John [Yah is gracious] the Immerser.
14 Ketika Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya kembali kepada orang banyak itu, datanglah seorang mendapatkan Yesus dan menyembah,
When they came to the multitude, a man came to him, kneeling down to him, and saying,
15 katanya: "Tuhan, kasihanilah anakku. Ia sakit ayan dan sangat menderita. Ia sering jatuh ke dalam api dan juga sering ke dalam air.
“Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic, and suffers grievously; for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.
16 Aku sudah membawanya kepada murid-murid-Mu, tetapi mereka tidak dapat menyembuhkannya."
So I brought him to your disciples, and they could not cure him.”
17 Maka kata Yesus: "Hai kamu angkatan yang tidak percaya dan yang sesat, berapa lama lagi Aku harus tinggal di antara kamu? Berapa lama lagi Aku harus sabar terhadap kamu? Bawalah anak itu ke mari!"
Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “Faithless and perverse generation! How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me.”
18 Dengan keras Yesus menegor dia, lalu keluarlah setan itu dari padanya dan anak itupun sembuh seketika itu juga.
Yeshua [Salvation] rebuked him, the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.
19 Kemudian murid-murid Yesus datang dan ketika mereka sendirian dengan Dia, bertanyalah mereka: "Mengapa kami tidak dapat mengusir setan itu?"
Then the disciples came to Yeshua [Salvation] privately, and said, “Why were we not able to cast it out?”
20 Ia berkata kepada mereka: "Karena kamu kurang percaya. Sebab Aku berkata kepadamu: Sesungguhnya sekiranya kamu mempunyai iman sebesar biji sesawi saja kamu dapat berkata kepada gunung ini: Pindah dari tempat ini ke sana, --maka gunung ini akan pindah, dan takkan ada yang mustahil bagimu.
He said to them, “Because of your unbelief. For most certainly I tell you, if you have trusting faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.
21 (Jenis ini tidak dapat diusir kecuali dengan berdoa dan berpuasa.)"
But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”
22 Pada waktu Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya bersama-sama di Galilea, Ia berkata kepada mereka: "Anak Manusia akan diserahkan ke dalam tangan manusia
While they were staying in Galilee [District, Circuit], Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,
23 dan mereka akan membunuh Dia dan pada hari ketiga Ia akan dibangkitkan." Maka hati murid-murid-Nya itupun sedih sekali.
and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up.” They were exceedingly sorry.
24 Ketika Yesus dan murid-murid-Nya tiba di Kapernaum datanglah pemungut bea Bait Allah kepada Petrus dan berkata: "Apakah gurumu tidak membayar bea dua dirham itu?"
When they had come to Capernaum [Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion], those who collected the half-shekel coin came to Peter [Rock], and said, “Does not your teacher pay the Temple Tax?”
25 Jawabnya: "Memang membayar." Dan ketika Petrus masuk rumah, Yesus mendahuluinya dengan pertanyaan: "Apakah pendapatmu, Simon? Dari siapakah raja-raja dunia ini memungut bea dan pajak? Dari rakyatnya atau dari orang asing?"
He said, “Yes.” When he came into the house, Yeshua [Salvation] anticipated him, saying, “What do you think, Simeon [Hearing]? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?”
26 Jawab Petrus: "Dari orang asing!" Maka kata Yesus kepadanya: "Jadi bebaslah rakyatnya.
Peter [Rock] said to him, “From strangers.” Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “Therefore the children are exempt.
27 Tetapi supaya jangan kita menjadi batu sandungan bagi mereka, pergilah memancing ke danau. Dan ikan pertama yang kaupancing, tangkaplah dan bukalah mulutnya, maka engkau akan menemukan mata uang empat dirham di dalamnya. Ambillah itu dan bayarkanlah kepada mereka, bagi-Ku dan bagimu juga."
But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel [0.4 oz; 11.34 kg]. Take that, and give it to them for me and you.”
