Від Луки 6
1 І сталось другої суботи після першої, ійшов Він через засїви, й рвали ученики Його колоссє, та й їли, потерши в руках.
One (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), while Jesus was walking through some grain fields with his disciples, the disciples picked some of the heads of grain. They rubbed them in their hands [to separate the grains from the husks], and ate the grain. [The law of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
2 Деякі ж з Фарисеїв казали їм: На що робите, чого не годить ся робити в суботу?
Some Pharisees [who were watching] said to Jesus, “(You should not be doing on our rest day [work] that [our] laws forbid!/Why are you doing on our rest day [work] that our laws forbid?)” [RHQ]
3 І, озвавшись до них, рече Ісус: Хиба й того не читали, що зробив Давид, як зголоднів він і тї, що були з ним:
[Jesus wanted to show them that the record in Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. [So] he replied, “[It is written in the Scriptures] what [our revered ancestor, King] David did when he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, ([but you do not think about what it implies/so why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
4 як, увійшовши вій у дом Божий, хлїби показні взяв і їв, і дав також тим, що були з ним, котрих не годилось їсти, хиба одним священикам?
David entered God’s big worship tent [and asked for some food]. [The high priest gave him] the bread that the priests had presented to God. It was permitted [in] one of [Moses’ laws] that only the priests could eat that bread. But [even though David was not a priest], he ate some, and gave some to the men who were with him. [And God did not consider that what David did was wrong]!”
5 І рече їм: Син чоловічий - Вів Господь і суботи.
Jesus also said to them, “[I am] the one who came from heaven, so [I] have the authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do on] the day of rest!”
6 І сталось також другої суботи: ввійшов Він у школу та й навчав; а був там чоловік, що рука в него права була суха.
Another (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) Jesus entered a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place) and taught the people. There was a man there whose right hand was shriveled.
7 Назирали ж Його письменники та Фарисеї, чи в суботу сцїляти ме, щоб знайти вину на Него.
The men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the Pharisees [who were there] watched Jesus, to see if he would heal the man (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day). They did this so that, [if he healed the man], they would accuse him [of disobeying their laws by working on the day of rest].
8 Він же знав думки їх, і рече чоловіку сухорукому: Устань і стань на середину. Він же, вставши, стояв.
But Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Come and stand here [in front of everyone]!” So the man got up and stood there.
9 Рече ж Ісус до них: Спитаю вас: Що годить ся по суботам: добре робити, чи лихе робити? душу спасати, чи погубляти?
Then Jesus said to the others, “I ask you this: Do the laws that [God gave Moses] permit [people] to do what is good (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), or [do they permit people] to harm [others]? [Do they permit us] to save [a person’s] life [on our day of rest] or to let [him] die [HYP] [by refusing to help him]?”
10 І, споглянувши кругом по всіх їх, рече чоловікові: Простягни руку твою. Він же зробив так, і стала рука його здорова, як і друга.
[They refused to answer him. So] after he looked around at them all, he said to the man, “Stretch out your [shriveled] hand!” The man did that, and his hand became all right again!
11 Вони ж сповнились лютостю і говорили один до одного, що б зробити Ісусові.
But the men who taught the Jewish laws and the Pharisees were very angry, and they discussed with one another what they could do to [get rid of] Jesus.
12 Стало ж ся тими днями, вийшов Він на гору молитись, і був усю ніч на молитві Богу.
About that time [Jesus] went up into the hills to pray. He prayed to God all night.
13 А, як настав день, покликав учеників своїх; і, вибравши з них дванайцятьох, котрих і апостолами назвав:
The next day he summoned all his disciples to come near him. From them he chose twelve men, whom he called apostles.
14 Симона, що назвав Петром, та Андрея брата його. Якова та Йоана, Филипа та Вартоломея,
They were Simon, to whom he gave the [new] name, Peter; Andrew, Peter’s [younger] brother; James and [his younger brother], John; Philip; Bartholomew;
15 Маттея та Тому, Якова Алфєєвого та Симона, на прізвище Зилота,
Matthew, whose other name was Levi; Thomas; [another] James, the [son] of Alpheus; Simon, who belonged to the party [that encouraged people to] rebel [against the Roman government];
16 Юду Якового та Юду Іскариоцького, що й став ся зрадником;
Judas, the [son] of [another] James; and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), the one who later (betrayed Jesus./enabled the Jewish leaders to seize Jesus.)
17 і зійшовши з ними, став на місці рівному, й товариство учеників Його, і множество велике людей з усієї Юдеї і Єрусалиму, й з побережжя Тирського та Сидонського, що поприходили слухати Його і сцїлятися від недуг своїх,
[Jesus] came down from the hills with his disciples and stood on a level area. There was a very big crowd of his disciples there. There was also a large group of people who had come from Jerusalem and from many [other] places [in] Judea [district], and from the coastal areas near Tyre and Sidon [cities].
18 і мучені від духів нечистих; і спїляли ся.
They came to hear Jesus talk to them and to be healed {and for him to heal them} from their diseases. He also healed those whom evil spirits had troubled.
19 І ввесь народ шукав приторкнутись до Него: бо сила від Него виходила, й сцїляла всіх.
Everyone [in the crowd] tried to touch him, because he was healing everyone by [his/God’s] power.
20 І знявши Він очі свої на ученики свої, рече: Блаженні вбогі, бо ваше царство Боже.
He looked [MTY] at his disciples and said, “[God] is pleased with you [who know] that you lack what [he wants you to have; ] he will allow you to be the people whose lives he rules over.
21 Блаженні голодні тепер, бо насититесь. Блаженні плачущі тепер, бо сьміяти метесь.
[God] is pleased with you who sincerely desire to receive what [MTY] [he wants you to have]; he will give you what you need, until you are satisfied. [God] is pleased with you that grieve now [because of sin]. Later you will be joyful.
22 Блаженні, коли ненавидіти муть вас люде, й коли проженуть вас, і осоромлять, і викинуть імя ваше, яв зло, задля Сина чоловічого.
[God] is pleased with you when [other] people hate you, when they will not let you join them, when they insult you, when they say that you are evil because [you believe in] me, the one who came from heaven.
23 Радуйтесь того дня і веселїтесь, ось бо нагорода ваша велика на небі; так бо чинили пророкам батьки їх.
When that happens, rejoice! Jump up and down because you are so happy! [God will give] you a great reward in heaven! [When they do these things to you, it will prove that you are God’s servants]. (OR, [People have always treated God’s servants like that].) Do not forget that these people’s ancestors did the same things to the prophets [who served God faithfully]!
24 Горе ж вам, багатим І бо прийняли ви утіху вашу.
But there will be terrible punishment for you that are rich; the happiness you have received [from your riches] is the only happiness that you will get.
25 Горе вам, ситим! бо голодувати мете. Горе вам, що сьмієтесь тепер; бо сумувати мете да плакати мете.
There will be terrible punishment for you who [think that you] have all that you need now; you will [realize] that these things will not make you feel satisfied. There will be terrible punishment for you who are joyful now; you will [later] be very sad.
26 Горе вам, коли добре говорити муть про вас усї люде; так бо робили лжепророкам батьки їх.
When most [HYP] people speak well about you, trouble is ahead for you; [it will not prove that you are God’s servants, because] your ancestors used to speak well about those who falsely [claimed that they were] prophets.”
27 Тільки ж глаголю вам, слухаючим: Любіть ворогів ваших, добре робіть ненавидникам вашим,
“But I say this to each of you [disciples] who are listening [to what I say]: Love your enemies [as well as your friends]. Do good things for those who hate you!
28 благословляйте кленучих вас, і моліть ся за обидників ваших.
[Ask God to] bless those who curse you! Pray for those who mistreat you!
29 Хто бв тебе у щоку, підстав і другу; а хто бере твою свиту, й жупанка не борони.
If someone [insults one of you by] striking you on one of your cheeks, turn your face [so that he can strike] the other cheek [also]. If [a bandit] wants to take away your [(sg)] coat, let him also have your shirt.
30 Всякому, хто просить у тебе, дай, і хто бере що твоє, не допевняй ся.
Give something to everyone who asks you [(sg) for something]. If someone takes away things that belong to you [(sg)], do not ask him to return them.
31 І, як хочете, щоб чинили вам люде, так і ви чинїть їм.
In whatever way you [(pl)] want others to act toward you, that is the way that you should act toward them.
32 І коли любите тих, хто любить. вас, яка вам дяка? бо й грішники тих, хто їх любить, люблять.
If you love [only] those who love you, do not [expect God] to praise you for [doing that] [RHQ], [because] even sinners love those who love them.
33 І коли добро робите тим, хто добро робить вам, яка вам дяка? бо й грішники те саме чинять.
If you do good things [only] for those who do good things for you, do not [expect God] to reward you [for doing that] [RHQ], [because] even sinners do that.
34 І коли позичаєте тим, від кого маєте надію одержати, яка вам дяка? бо й грішники грішникам позичають, щоб одержати стільки ж.
If you lend [things or money only] to those who you expect will give something back to you, do not [expect that God] will reward you [RHQ] [for doing that]. Even sinners lend to other sinners, because they expect them to pay everything back.
35 Нї, любіть ворогів ваших, і добро робіть, і позичайте, нічого від них не сподіваючись; а буде нагорода ваша велика, й будете синами Вишнього; бо Він благий до невдячних і лихих.
Instead, love your enemies! Do good things for them! Lend to them, and do not expect them to pay anything back! [If you do that, God will give] you a big reward. And you will be [acting like] his children [should]. Remember that God is kind to people who are not grateful and to people who are wicked, [and he expects you to be like that too].
36 Будьте ж оце милосердні, як і Отець ваш милосерден.
Act mercifully toward others, just like your Father [in heaven acts] mercifully [toward you].”
37 І не судіть, то й не будете суджені; не осуджуйте, то й не будете осуджені; прощайте, то й буде вам прощено.
“Do not say how sinfully others have acted, and then [God] will not say how sinfully you have acted. Do not condemn others, and then [he] will not condemn you [DOU]. Forgive others [for the evil things that they have done to you], and then [God] will forgive you.
38 Давайте, то й вам буде дано; міру добру, наталовану, й струснуту, й надто пересипану давати муть вам на лоно ваше. Такою бо мірою, якою міряєте, відміряєть ся вам.
Give [good things to others], and then [God] will give [good] things to you. It will be [as though] [MET] [God is putting things in a basket] for you. He will give you a full amount, pressed down in the basket, which he will shake [so that he can put more in], and it will spill over the sides! [Remember that] the way you act [toward others] will be the way that [God] will act toward you!”
39 Сказав же приповість їм: Чи може слїпий сліпого водити? хиба обидва в яму не впадуть?
He also told [his disciples] this parable [to show them that they should be like him, and not be like the Jewish religious leaders]: “(You certainly would not [expect] a blind man to lead another blind man./Would you [expect] a blind man to lead [another] blind man?) [RHQ] If he tried to do [that], (they would both probably fall into a hole!/wouldn’t they both probably fall into a hole?) [RHQ] [I am your teacher, and you disciples should be like me].
40 Нема ученика над учителя свого; звершений же - буде кожен, як учитель його.
A disciple should not [expect to be] better known than his teacher. But if a student is fully trained {if someone fully trains a student}, the student can become like his teacher [MET]. [So you should be content to be like me].
41 Чого ж дивиш ся на порошину в оці брата твого, полїна ж у своєму оці не чуєш?
(Why do you notice [someone else’s small faults]?/None of you should be concerned about [someone else’s small faults] [MET, RHQ].) [That would be like] noticing a speck in that person’s eye. But you should be concerned about [your own big faults. They are like] planks in your own eye, [which you do not notice].
42 І як можеш казати братові твоєму: Брате, дай вийму порошину, що в оцї твоїм, сам в оці своїм полїна не бачивши? Лицеміре, викинь перше ломаку з ока твого, а тодї бачити меш вийняти порошину з ока брата твого.
(You [(sg)] should not say, ‘Friend, let me take out that speck in your eye!’ when you do not notice the log in your own eye!/Why do you say, ‘Friend, let me take out that speck in your eye!’ when you do not notice the log in your own eye?) [RHQ] [If you do that], you are a hypocrite! You should first [stop committing your own sins. That will be like] removing the plank from your own eye. Then, as a result, you will have the spiritual insight you need to help others get rid of the [faults that are like] specks in their eyes.”
43 Нема бо дерева доброго, що родить овощ пустий; анї дерева пустого, що родить овощ добрий.
“[People are like trees] [MET]. Healthy trees do not bear bad fruit (OR, bear only good fruit), and unhealthy trees do not bear good fruit.
44 Кожне бо дерево по свому овощу пізнаєть ся; не збирають бо з тернини смокви, анї збирають з ожини винограду.
[Just like you] can tell if a tree is good or bad by looking at its fruit, [you can tell which people are good and which are bad by looking at the way they] conduct their lives. [For example, because thornbushes cannot produce figs], no one can pick figs from thornbushes. And [since bramble bushes cannot produce grapes], no one can [pick] grapes from bramble bushes.
45 Добрий чоловік з доброго скарбу серця свого виносить добре; а лихий чоловік з лихого скарбу серця свого виносить лихе: бо з переповнї серця промовляють уста його.
[Similarly], good people will conduct their lives in a good way because they think a lot of good [things], and evil people will live in an evil way because they think a lot of evil [things]. The basic principle is that people speak [and act] according to all that they think.”
46 На що ж мене звете Господи, Господи, й не робите, що я глаголю?
“[Because people should obey what their masters tell them], (it is disgraceful that you say that I am your master but you do not do what I tell you!/why do you say that I am your master but you do not do what I tell you?) [RHQ]
47 Всякий, хто приходить до мене, й слухає слова мої, та й чинить їх, покажу вам, кому він подобен:
Some people come to me, and hear my messages and obey them. I will tell you what they are like.
48 подобен він чоловікові, будуючому будинок, що викопав глибоко, й положив підвалину на каменї; як же повідь настала, наперла бистрінь на будинок той, та не змогла схитнути його: збудовано бо його на каменї.
They are like a man who dug deep [into the ground to prepare to build his house]. He made sure that the foundation was on solid ground. Then when there was a flood, the water tried to wash away the house. But the river could not shake the house, because it was built {he built it} on a solid [foundation].
49 Хто ж слухає, та не чинить, подобен чоловікові, будуючому будинок на землї, без підвалини, на котрий наперла бистрінь, і зараз упав, і була руїна будинка того велика.
But some people hear my messages but do not obey them. They are like a man who built a house on top of the ground without [digging] a foundation. When the river flooded, the house collapsed immediately and was completely ruined. [So it is important for you to obey what I teach you].”
