Marka 1
1 Ten jest początek Ewangielii Jezusa Chrystusa, Syna Bożego.
([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 Jako napisano w prorokach: Oto Ja posyłam Anioła mego przed obliczem twojem, który zgotuje drogę twoję przed tobą.
3 Głos wołającego na puszczy: Gotujcie drogę Pańską, proste czyńcie ścieżki jego.
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 Jan chrzcił na puszczy, i kazał chrzest pokuty na odpuszczenie grzechów.
[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 I wychodziła do niego wszystka kraina Judzka, i Jeruzalemczycy, a wszyscy byli od niego chrzczeni w rzece Jordanie, wyznawając grzechy swoje.
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 Ale Jan przyodziany był sierścią wielbłądową, a pas skórzany był około biódr jego, a jadał szarańczę i miód leśny.
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 I kazał, mówiąc: Idzie za mną możniejszy niżeli ja, któremum nie jest godzien, schyliwszy się, rozwiązać rzemyka u obuwia jego.
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 Jamci was chrzcił wodą; ale on was będzie chrzcił Duchem Świętym.
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 I stało się w one dni, że przyszedł Jezus z Nazaretu Galilejskiego, a ochrzczony jest od Jana w Jordanie.
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 A zarazem wystąpiwszy z wody, ujrzał rozstępujące się niebiosa, i Ducha jako gołębicę na niego zstępującego.
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 I stał się głos z nieba: Tyś jest on Syn mój miły, w którym mi się upodobało.
And [God] [MTY] spoke to him from heaven saying, “You are my Son, whom I love dearly. I am very pleased with you.”
12 A zaraz Duch wypędził go na puszczą.
(Then/Right away) the Spirit [of God] sent Jesus into the desolate area.
13 I był tam na puszczy przez czterdzieści dni, będąc kuszony od szatana, a był z zwierzęty, a Aniołowie służyli mu.
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 Lecz potem, gdy Jan był podany do więzienia, przyszedł Jezus do Galilei, każąc Ewangieliję królestwa Bożego,
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 A mówiąc: Wypełnił się czas i przybliżyło się królestwo Boże: Pokutujcie, a wierzcie Ewangielii.
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 A przechodząc się nad morzem Galilejskiem, ujrzał Szymona i Andrzeja, brata jego, zapuszczających sieć w morze; bo byli rybitwi.
[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 I rzekł im Jezus: Pójdźcie za mną, a uczynię was rybitwami ludzi.
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 A oni zarazem opuściwszy sieci swoje, poszli za nim.
Immediately they abandoned [the work that they were doing with] their nets, and they went with him.
19 A stamtąd troszeczkę odszedłszy, ujrzał Jakóba, syna Zebedeuszowego, i Jana, brata jego, a oni w łodzi poprawiali sieci.
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 I zaraz ich powołał; a oni zostawiwszy ojca swego Zebedeusza w łodzi z czeladzią, poszli za nim.
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 Potem weszli do Kapernaum; a zaraz w sabat wszedłszy Jezus do bóżnicy, nauczał.
[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 I zdumiewali się nad nauką jego; albowiem on ich uczył jako mający moc, a nie jako nauczeni w Piśmie.
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 A był w bóżnicy ich człowiek mający ducha nieczystego, który zawołał,
Suddenly, [while he was teaching], a man [appeared] in their worship place who had an evil spirit in him, and he shouted,
24 Mówiąc: Ach! cóż my z tobą mamy, Jezusie Nazareński? Przyszedłeś, abyś nas wytracił. Znam cię, ktoś jest, żeś on święty Boży.
“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 I zgromił go Jezus, mówiąc: Umilknij, a wynijdź z niego.
Jesus rebuked [the evil spirit], saying, “Be quiet! And come out [of the man]!”
26 Tedy rozdarłszy go duch nieczysty i zawoławszy głosem wielkim, wyszedł z niego.
The evil spirit shook the man hard. He screamed loudly, and then he came out of the man [and left].
27 I wylękli się wszyscy, tak iż się pytali między sobą, mówiąc: Cóż to jest? cóż to za nowa nauka, iż mocą i duchom nieczystym rozkazuje, i są mu posłuszni?
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 I rozeszła się powieść o nim prędko po wszystkiej krainie, leżącej około Galilei.
The people very soon told [many others] throughout the whole Galilee district what Jesus [had done].
29 A wyszedłszy zaraz z bóżnicy, przyszli do domu Szymonowego i Andrzejowego z Jakóbem i z Janem.
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 A świekra Szymonowa leżała, mając gorączkę, o której mu wnet powiedzieli.
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 Tedy przystąpiwszy podniósł ją, ująwszy ją za rękę jej; a zaraz ją gorączka opuściła, i posługowała im.
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 A gdy był wieczór i słońce zachodziło, przynosili do niego wszystkie, którzy się źle mieli, i opętane;
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 A wszystko miasto zgromadziło się do drzwi.
[It seemed as though] everyone [HYP, MTY] [who lived in] the town was gathered at the doorway [of Simon’s house].
34 I uzdrowił wiele tych, co się źle mieli na rozliczne choroby, i wygnał wiele dyjabłów, a nie dopuścił mówić dyjabłom; bo go znali.
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 A bardzo rano przede dniem wstawszy, wyszedł i odszedł na puste miejsce, a tam się modlił.
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 I poszli za nim Szymon i ci, którzy z nim byli;
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 A znalazłszy go, rzekli mu: Wszyscy cię szukają.
“[Come back to the town with us, because] many [HYP] people [in Capernaum] are looking for you!”
38 Tedy im on rzekł: Idźmy do przyległych miasteczek, abym i tam kazał; bom na to przyszedł.
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 I kazał w bóżnicach ich po wszystkiej Galilei, i wyganiał dyjabły.
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 Tedy przyszedł do niego trędowaty, prosząc go i upadając przed nim na kolana, i mówiąc mu: Jeźli chcesz, możesz mię oczyścić.
[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 A tak Jezus użaliwszy się, wyciągnął rękę, a dotknął się go i rzekł mu: Chcę, bądź oczyszczony!
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 A gdy to Pan rzekł, zarazem odszedł trąd od niego, i był oczyszczony.
Immediately the man was healed! He was no longer a leper!
43 A srodze mu przygroziwszy Jezus, zaraz go odprawił;
Jesus spoke sternly to him before he sent him away.
44 I rzekł mu: Patrz, abyś nikomu nic nie powiadał, ale idź, a ukaż się kapłanowi, i ofiaruj za oczyszczenie twoje to, co rozkazał Mojżesz, na świadectwo przeciwko nim.
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 Ale on odszedłszy, począł wiele opowiadać i rozsławiać tę rzecz, tak iż już nie mógł Jezus jawnie wnijść do miasta, ale był na ustroniu na miejscach pustych. I schodzili się do niego zewsząd.
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.
