[영어 성경] Luke chapter 9

CHAPTER 9

Lk. 9:1 When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them

power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure

diseases,

Lk. 9:2 and he sent them out to preach the kingdom of God and to

heal the sick.

Lk. 9:3 He told them: “"Take nothing for the journey —- no staff, no

bag, no bread, no money, no extra tunic.

Lk. 9:4 Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that

town.

Lk. 9:5 If people do not welcome you, shake the dust off your feet

when you leave their town, as a testimony against them.”"

Lk. 9:6 So they set out and went from village to village, preaching

the gospel and healing people everywhere.

Lk. 9:7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was going on.

And he was perplexed, because some were saying that John

had been raised from the dead,

Lk. 9:8 others that Elijah had appeared, and still others that one of

the prophets of long ago had come back to life.

Lk. 9:9 But Herod said, “"I beheaded John. Who, then, is this I hear

such things about?”" And he tried to see him.

Lk. 9:10 When the apostles returned, they reported to Jesus what they

had done. Then he took them with him and they withdrew by

themselves to a town called Bethsaida,

Lk. 9:11 but the crowds learned about it and followed him. He

welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of

God, and healed those who needed healing.

Lk. 9:12 Late in the afternoon the Twelve came to him and said, “"Send

the crowd away so they can go to the surrounding villages

and countryside and find food and lodging, because we are in

a remote place here.”"

173

Lk. 9:13 He replied, “"You give them something to eat.”" They

answered, “"We have only five loaves of bread and two fish —-

unless we go and buy food for all this crowd.”"

Lk. 9:14 (About five thousand men were there.) But he said to his

disciples, “"Make them sit down in groups of about fifty

each.”"

Lk. 9:15 The disciples did so, and everybody sat down.

Lk. 9:16 Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to

heaven, he gave thanks and broke them. Then he gave them

to the disciples to set before the people.

Lk. 9:17 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up

twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

Lk. 9:18 Once when Jesus was praying in private and his disciples

were with him, he asked them, “"Who do the crowds say I

am?”"

Lk. 9:19 They replied, “"Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah;

and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has

come back to life.”"

Lk. 9:20 “"But what about you?”" he asked. “"Who do you say I am?”"

Peter answered, “"The Christ [Or Messiah] of God.”"

Lk. 9:21 Jesus strictly warned them not to tell this to anyone.

Lk. 9:22 And he said, “"The Son of Man must suffer many things and

be rejected by the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law,

and he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.”"

Lk. 9:23 Then he said to them all: “"If anyone would come after me, he

must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

Lk. 9:24 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever

loses his life for me will save it.

Lk. 9:25 What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet

lose or forfeit his very self?

174

Lk. 9:26 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man

will be ashamed of him when he comes in his glory and in the

glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

Lk. 9:27 I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste

death before they see the kingdom of God.”"

Lk. 9:28 About eight days after Jesus said this, he took Peter, John

and James with him and went up onto a mountain to pray.

Lk. 9:29 As he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and

his clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning.

Lk. 9:30 Two men, Moses and Elijah,

Lk. 9:31 appeared in glorious splendour, talking with Jesus. They

spoke about his departure, which he was about to bring to

fulfilment at Jerusalem.

Lk. 9:32 Peter and his companions were very sleepy, but when they

became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men

standing with him.

Lk. 9:33 As the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to him, “"Master, it

is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters —- one

for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.”" (He did not know

what he was saying.)

Lk. 9:34 While he was speaking, a cloud appeared and enveloped

them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.

Lk. 9:35 A voice came from the cloud, saying, “"This is my Son, whom

I have chosen; listen to him.”"

Lk. 9:36 When the voice had spoken, they found that Jesus was alone.

The disciples kept this to themselves, and told no-one at that

time what they had seen.

Lk. 9:37 The next day, when they came down from the mountain, a

large crowd met him.

Lk. 9:38 A man in the crowd called out, “"Teacher, I beg you to look at

my son, for he is my only child.

175

Lk. 9:39 A spirit seizes him and he suddenly screams; it throws him

into convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It scarcely

ever leaves him and is destroying him.

Lk. 9:40 I begged your disciples to drive it out, but they could not.”"

Lk. 9:41 “"O unbelieving and perverse generation,”" Jesus replied, “"how

long shall I stay with you and put up with you? Bring your

son here.”"

Lk. 9:42 Even while the boy was coming, the demon threw him to the

ground in a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the evil [Greek:

unclean] spirit, healed the boy and gave him back to his

father.

Lk. 9:43 And they were all amazed at the greatness of God. While

everyone was marvelling at all that Jesus did, he said to his

disciples,

Lk. 9:44 “"Listen carefully to what I am about to tell you: The Son of

Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men.”"

Lk. 9:45 But they did not understand what this meant. It was hidden

from them, so that they did not grasp it, and they were afraid

to ask him about it.

Lk. 9:46 An argument started among the disciples as to which of them

would be the greatest.

Lk. 9:47 Jesus, knowing their thoughts, took a little child and made

him stand beside him.

Lk. 9:48 Then he said to them, “"Whoever welcomes this little child in

my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me

welcomes the one who sent me. For he who is least among

you all —- he is the greatest.”"

Lk. 9:49 “"Master,”" said John, “"we saw a man driving out demons in

your name and we tried to stop him, because he is not one of

us.”"

Lk. 9:50 “"Do not stop him,”" Jesus said, “"for whoever is not against

you is for you.”"

176

Lk. 9:51 As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven,

Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem.

Lk. 9:52 And he sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan

village to get things ready for him;

Lk. 9:53 but the people there did not welcome him, because he was

heading for Jerusalem.

Lk. 9:54 When the disciples James and John saw this, they asked,

“"Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to

destroy them?”" [Some manuscripts: them, even as Elijah did]

Lk. 9:55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them,

Lk. 9:56 and [Some manuscripts: them. And he said, “"You do not

know what kind of spirit you are of, for the Son of Man did

not come to destroy men’'s lives, but to save them.”" 56 And]

they went to another village.

Lk. 9:57 As they were walking along the road, a man said to him, “"I

will follow you wherever you go.”"

Lk. 9:58 Jesus replied, “"Foxes have holes and birds of the air have

nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”"

Lk. 9:59 He said to another man, “"Follow me.”" But the man replied,

“"Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”"

Lk. 9:60 Jesus said to him, “"Let the dead bury their own dead, but you

go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”"

Lk. 9:61 Still another said, “"I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go

back and say good-bye to my family.”"

Lk. 9:62 Jesus replied, “"No-one who puts his hand to the plough and

looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.”"
