Marka Evaņg̒elijs 4
1 Un Viņš atkal iesāka mācīt pie jūras, un daudz ļaužu pie Viņa sapulcējās, tā ka Viņš laivā kāpis nosēdās uz jūras un visi ļaudis stāvēja jūrmalā.
Another time Jesus began to teach [people] alongside Lake [Galilee. As he was doing that, a very large crowd gathered around him. Because people were jostling him], he got into a boat in the lake [so that he could speak to the crowd better. Then he sat in it and began to teach the crowd from the boat]. At the same time, the crowd was on the shore close to the lake.
2 Un Viņš tiem daudz mācīja caur līdzībām un Savā mācībā uz tiem sacīja:
Then he taught them many parables. While he was teaching them, he told them [this]:
3 “Klausiet: redzi, sējējs izgāja sēt.
“Consider [well the meaning of this illustration]: A man/farmer went out [to his field] to sow [some seeds].
4 Un notikās, sējot cits krita ceļmalā, un tie putni apakš debess nāca un to apēda.
As he was scattering them [over the soil], some [of the] seeds fell on the path. Then some birds came and ate those seeds.
5 Un cits krita uz akmenāju, kur tam nebija daudz zemes, un uzdīga tūdaļ, tāpēc ka tam nebija dziļas zemes.
Other [seeds] fell on ground where there was not much soil [on top of] rock. Very soon the [seeds] sprouted because [the sun warmed] the moist soil quickly where it was not deep.
6 Bet kad saule bija uzlēkusi, tad tas savīta un nokalta, tāpēc ka nebija saknes.
But after the sun shone [on those young plants], they became scorched. Then they withered because they did not have [deep] roots.
7 Un cits krita starp ērkšķiem, un tie ērkšķi uzauga un to nomāca, un tas nenesa augļus.
As the farmer sowed, other [seeds] fell on [ground that contained roots of] thorny plants. [The] seeds [grew, but] the thorny plants also grew up and crowded out [the] good [plants. So the plants] produced no grain.
8 Un cits krita uz labu zemi un nesa augļus, kas augtin auga, un cits nesa trīsdesmitkārtīgi, cits sešdesmit kārtīgi un cits simtkārtīgi.”
But as the farmer sowed, other [seeds] fell on good soil. As a result, they sprouted, they grew well, and then they produced [plenty of] grain. [Some] plants bore 30 [grains]. [Some] bore 60 [grains]. [Some] bore 100 [grains].”
9 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Kam ausis ir dzirdēt, tas lai dzird.”
Then Jesus said, “If you want to understand this [MTY], you should consider [carefully what I have just said].”
10 Un kad Viņš viens pats bija, tad tie, kas līdz ar tiem divpadsmit pie Viņa bija, Viņu vaicāja šās līdzības dēļ
[Later], when only the twelve [disciples] and a few [other] people were with him, they asked him about the parables.
11 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Jums ir dots, zināt Dieva valstības noslēpumu; bet tiem, kas ārā, viss tas notiek caur līdzībām,
He said to them, “People have not understood before [the new message] about how God wants to rule people’s lives. It is to you that this is being made known {that I am making this known}. But I tell about this [only] (in parables/figuratively) to those who have not [yet invited God to rule their lives].
12 Ka tie redzot redz un nenomana, un dzirdot dzird un nesaprot; ka tie neatgriežas, un grēki tiem netop piedoti.”
As a result [it is true what a prophet has written], Although they see [what I do], they do not perceive [what it means] [DOU]. Although they hear [what I say], they do not understand [what it means] [DOU]. So they do not (repent/turn away from their sinful behavior) in order that they would be forgiven {[God] would forgive them}.”
13 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Vai jūs šo līdzību nesaprotat? Kā tad jūs sapratīsiet visas tās citas līdzības?
He also said to them, “([I am disappointed that] you do not understand this illustration!/Can you not understand this illustration?) [RHQ] [If you do not understand] this, (you will certainly not understand any of the [other] illustrations!/how will you understand any of the [other] illustrations?) [RHQ] [Nevertheless, I will explain it to you].
14 Tas sējējs sēj to vārdu.
[In the illustration that I told you], the man who sows [seeds represents someone who] declares God’s message [DOU].
15 Bet šie ir tie, kas ceļmalā, kur tas vārds top sēts, un kad tie to ir dzirdējuši, tad tūdaļ sātans nāk un to vārdu noņem, kas viņu sirdīs ir sēts.
[Some people are like] the path on which [some of] the seeds fell. When they hear [the message], Satan comes at once and causes them to forget what they have heard.
16 Un tāpat tie, kas uz to akmenāju sēti, ir tie, kas to vārdu dzirdējuši, tūdaļ to uzņem ar prieku.
[Some people are like the ground where the soil was not very deep over] rock. When they hear [God’s] message, they immediately accept it with joy.
17 Bet tiem nav saknes iekš sevis, bet tik kādu laiku tie ir ticīgi. Kad bēdas un vajāšana uziet tā vārda dēļ, tad viņi tūdaļ ņem apgrēcību.
But, because [the message does not penetrate deeply] [MET] [into their hearts/inner beings, they] believe it for [only a short time. They are like the plants that] did not have deep roots. When others treat such people badly or cause them to suffer because [they believe], those people [who are suffering] soon stop believing God’s message.
18 Un kas starp ērkšķiem sēti, ir tie, kas to vārdu dzird,
[Some people are like] the [soil that had roots of] thorny weeds in it. [Although] those people hear [God’s] message,
19 Un šīs pasaules rūpes un bagātības viltība un citas kārības iemetās un noslāpē to vārdu un tas paliek neauglīgs. (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)
20 Un kas uz to labo zemi sēti, ir tie, kas to vārdu dzird un pieņem un augļus nes, cits trīsdesmitkārtīgi, cits sešdesmitkārtīgi, cits simtkārtīgi.”
[But some people] are like the good soil. They hear [God’s] message and they accept it [and they believe] it. [Then they do the things that God wants them to do. They are like the good plants that produced] 30, 60 or 100 [grains].”
21 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Vai svece top iededzināta, lai to liek apakš pūra, vai apakš galda? Vai ne tāpēc, lai to liek uz lukturi?
He also told them [another parable], saying, “(People certainly do not [light] an oil lamp and then bring it [in the house] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} under a container or under a bed./Would anyone [light] an oil lamp and then bring it [in the house] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} under a container or under a bed?) [RHQ] (No, [they light it] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} in a place [where it lights the house].[/Wouldn’t they light it] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} in a place [where it lights the house]?) [RHQ]
22 Jo nekas nav apslēpts, kas nebūtu nācis gaismā; un nekas nenotiek slepeni, kas netaptu zināms.
[Similarly], there are some [parts of God’s message] that people do not know. [But he intends that] people will understand all the things that they do not know [now].
23 Jo kam ausis ir dzirdēt, tas lai dzird.”
If you want to understand this, you should consider [carefully] what you [have just heard].”
24 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Pieraugāt, ko jūs dzirdat. Ar kādu mēru jūs mērojat, mēros jums, un pieliks jums vēl klāt.
Then he said to them, “Consider carefully what you hear [me say to you], for [God] will let you [understand] to the same degree that you [consider what I say]. [He] will let you [understand] even more than that.
25 Jo kam ir, tam taps dots; un kam nav, no tā arī taps atņemts, kas tam ir.”
Those who [consider what I say] and understand it, [God] will enable them to understand more. But those who do not [consider carefully what I say], they will forget even what they already know.”
26 Un Viņš sacīja: “Dieva valstība ir tāpat, kā kāds cilvēks sēklu met zemē.
Jesus also said, “God [has the power to change] people who let him rule their lives. I [will illustrate how that can happen] [MET]. A man planted seeds in the ground.
27 Un guļ un ceļas, nakti un dienu; un tā sēkla uzdīgst un uzaug, tā ka viņš pats to nenomana.
Afterwards he slept each night and rose each day [without worrying about the seeds]. [During that time] the seeds sprouted and grew in a way that he did not understand, because by itself the soil [caused the plants to grow and produce grain].
28 Jo zeme pati no sevis nes augļus, papriekš stiebru, tad vārpu, tad pilnus kviešus iekš vārpas.
First the stalks [appeared]. Then the heads [appeared]. Then the full kernels in the heads [appeared].
29 Un kad tie augļi ienākušies, tad viņš tūdaļ cirpi sūta, jo tas pļaujamais laiks ir klātu.”
As soon as the grain was ripe he sent [people] [MTY] to harvest it because it was time to harvest [the grain].”
30 Un Viņš sacīja: “Kam mēs Dieva valstību līdzināsim? Jeb caur kādu līdzību mēs to nozīmēsim?
[Jesus told them] another [parable. He] said, “I will tell you [RHQ] how the [number of people] whose lives God rules in a new way [will continue to grow] (OR, each continue to have more and more influence in this world). I hope [RHQ] that this illustration will show this [to you].
31 Itin kā sinepju graudiņš, kas zemē sēts, mazākais no visām sēklām virs zemes.
[You know what happens to] mustard seeds when we plant them. Though mustard seeds are among the smallest of seeds, [here in Israel] they become large plants.
32 Un kad tas ir sēts, tad tas augtin aug un top lielāks pār visiem stādiem un dabū lielus zarus, tā ka putni apakš debess viņa pavēnī var ligzdas taisīt.”
After they are planted, they grow up and become larger than the other garden plants. They put out big branches so that birds are able to make nests in their shade.”
33 Un caur daudz tādām līdzībām Viņš uz tiem to vārdu runāja, tā ka tie to varēja saprast.
Jesus used many such illustrations when he talked to the people about God. If they were able to understand [some, he kept telling them more].
34 Un bez līdzībām Viņš uz tiem neko nerunāja; bet Saviem mācekļiem Viņš visu īpaši izstāstīja.
He always used parables when he spoke to them. But he explained all [the illustrations] to his own disciples when he was alone with them.
35 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja tanī dienā, kad vakars metās: “Pārcelsimies uz viņu malu.”
On that same day, when the sun was setting, Jesus said to [his disciples], “Let’s cross over to the opposite side of [Lake Galilee in the boat].”
36 Un tos ļaudis atstājuši, tie Viņu ņēma līdz, tā kā Viņš laivā bija, un tur vēl citas laivas bija pie Viņa.
So they left the crowd, [got in] the boat where Jesus [already] was, and left. [Other people] went with them in other boats.
37 Un liela vētra cēlās, un viļņi gāzās laivā, tā ka tā laiva jau pildījās.
A strong wind came up and the waves started coming into the boat! The boat was soon nearly full [of water]!
38 Un Viņš laivas galā uz spilvena gulēja; un tie Viņu modina un saka uz Viņu: “Mācītāj, vai Tu nebēdā, ka ejam bojā?”
Jesus was in the back part of the boat. He was sleeping, [with his head] on a cushion. So they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher! (You ought to be concerned that we are about to die!/Are you not concerned that we are about to die?) [RHQ]”
39 Un uzmodies Viņš apdraudēja vēju un sacīja uz jūru: “Klusu, mierā!” Un vējš nostājās, un jūra palika it klusu.
So Jesus got up and rebuked the wind. Then he said to the lake, “Be quiet! Be still! [DOU]” The wind [immediately] blowing and then [the lake] became very calm.
40 Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Kam jūs esat tik bailīgi? Kā jums nav ticības?”
He said to the disciples, “([I am disappointed that] you are afraid [like that]!/Why are you afraid [like that]?) [RHQ] Do you not yet believe [that I can protect you]?”
41 Un tie ļoti izbijās un sacīja savā starpā: “Kas Tas tāds? Jo vējš un jūra Viņam paklausa.”
They were very awestruck. They said to one another, “[Not only do the demons obey this man, but] even the wind and the waves obey him! “(What kind of man is he?/This man is [not like ordinary] people!) [RHQ]”
