English: World English Bible - WEB
4 Rejoice in the Lord always! Again I will say, Rejoice! ⁵ Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. ⁶ In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. ⁷ And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. ⁸ Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things. ⁹ The things which you learned, received, heard, and saw in me: do these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

⁴ Veselite se vedno v Gospodu; zopet pravim: Veselite se! ⁵ Vaša blagost bodi znana vsem ljudem. ⁶ Gospod je blizu. Nikar ne bodite v skrbeh, ampak v vsem razodevajte svoje želje Bogu v molitvi in prošnji z zahvalo. ⁷ In božji mir, ki vsak razum presega, bo varoval vaša srca in vaše misli v Kristusu Jezusu. ⁸ Končno, bratje: kar je resnično, kar pošteno, kar pravično, kar čisto, kar ljubeznivo, kar je častno, karkoli je krepostno in karkoli hvale vredno, to imejte v mislih. ⁹ Česar ste se naučili, kar ste prejeli in slišali in na meni videli, to izvršujte, in Bog miru bo z vami.

2 Give thanks to Yahweh with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings. ³ Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy! ⁴ For the word of Yahweh is right. All his work is done in faithfulness. ⁵ He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of Yahweh. ⁶ By Yahweh’s word the heavens were made; All their army by the breath of his mouth. ⁷ He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in storehouses. ⁸ Let all the earth fear Yahweh. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. ⁹ For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood firm.

² Slavite Gospoda s citrami,
igrajte mu na harfo deseterih strun!
³ Pojte mu novo pesem,
dobro mu pojte, da bo donelo!
⁴ Zakaj Gospodova beseda je prava
in vse njegovo delo je zanesljivo.
⁵ Ljubi, kar je prav in pravično,
zemlja je polna Gospodove milosti.
⁶ Z Gospodovo besedo je nebo narejeno
in z dihom njegovih ust vsa nebesna vojska.
⁷ Kakor v mehu zbira morske vode,
in v shrambe devlje vodovje globin.
⁸ Boj se Gospoda vsa zemlja,
pred njim naj trepetajo vsi prebivalci na svetu!
⁹ Zakaj on je rekel in je nastalo,
on je ukazal in je bilo.

21 When Jesus had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a great multitude was gathered to him; and he was by the sea. ²² Behold, one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, came; and seeing him, he fell at his feet, ²³ and begged him much, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death. Please come and lay your hands on her, that she may be made healthy, and live.” ²⁴ He went with him, and a great multitude followed him, and they pressed upon him on all sides. ²⁵ A certain woman, who had an issue of blood for twelve years, ²⁶ and had suffered many things by many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better, but rather grew worse, ²⁷ having heard the things concerning Jesus, came up behind him in the crowd, and touched his clothes. ²⁸ For she said, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be made well.” ²⁹ Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction. ³⁰ Immediately Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd, and asked, “Who touched my clothes?” ³¹ His disciples said to him, “You see the multitude pressing against you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’” ³² He looked around to see her who had done this thing. ³³ But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. ³⁴ He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be cured of your disease.” ³⁵ While he was still speaking, they came from the synagogue ruler’s house saying, “Your daughter is dead. Why bother the Teacher any more?” ³⁶ But Jesus, when he heard the message spoken, immediately said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Don’t be afraid, only believe.” ³⁷ He allowed no one to follow him, except Peter, James, and John the brother of James. ³⁸ He came to the synagogue ruler’s house, and he saw an uproar, weeping, and great wailing. ³⁹ When he had entered in, he said to them, “Why do you make an uproar and weep? The child is not dead, but is asleep.” ⁴⁰ They ridiculed him. But he, having put them all out, took the father of the child and her mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was lying. ⁴¹ Taking the child by the hand, he said to her, “Talitha cumi;” which means, being interpreted, “Girl, I tell you, get up.” ⁴² Immediately the girl rose up, and walked, for she was twelve years old. They were amazed with great amazement. ⁴³ He strictly ordered them that no one should know this, and commanded that something should be given to her to eat.

²¹ Ko se je Jezus prepeljal v čolnu spet na drugo stran, se je okoli njega zbrala velika množica in je ostal kraj morja. ²² Tedaj pride eden izmed načelnikov shodnice, Jair po imenu. Ko ga zagleda, mu pade k nogam ²³ in ga zelo prosi: »Moja hčerka umira; pridi in položi nanjo roke, da ozdravi in bo živela.« ²⁴ In odšel je z njim. Spremljalo pa ga je mnogo ljudstva in so ga stiskali. ²⁵ In neka žena, ki je že dvanajst let imela krvotok ²⁶ in je od mnogih zdravnikov veliko pretrpela ter vse svoje imetje potrošila, pa ji ni nič pomagalo, ampak se ji je še poslabšalo, ²⁷ je slišala o Jezusu; od zadaj se mu je v gneči približala in se dotaknila njegove obleke. ²⁸ Mislila je namreč: »Ako se le dotaknem njegove obleke, bom ozdravela.« ²⁹ In pri priči ji je vir krvi usahnil in je na telesu začutila, da je bolezen ozdravljena. ³⁰ Jezus je brž spoznal, da je šla iz njega moč, se obrnil k množici in rekel: »Kdo se je dotaknil moje obleke?« ³¹ Učenci so mu rekli: »Vidiš množico, ki te stiska od vseh strani, pa praviš: Kdo se me je dotaknil?« ³² In oziral se je okoli sebe, da bi ugledal tisto, ki je to storila. ³³ Žena pa, ki se je zavedala, kaj se ji je zgodilo, je preplašena in drhteč pristopila in se vrgla predenj ter mu povedala vso resnico. ³⁴ On ji je rekel: »Hči, tvoja vera te je ozdravila. Pojdi v miru in bodi ozdravljena svoje bolezni.« ³⁵ Še je govoril, ko pridejo načelnikovi domači in mu rečejo: »Tvoja hči je umrla; kaj še nadleguješ Učenika?« ³⁶ Ko Jezus sliši to sporočilo reče načelniku: »Ne boj se, samo veruj!« ³⁷ In ni pustil nikogar, da bi šel z njim, razen Petra, Jakoba in Jakobovega brata Janeza. ³⁸ Pridejo do načelnikove hiše, in opazi hrup in jok in žalno vpitje. ³⁹ Vstopi in jim reče: »Kaj se razburjate in jokate? Deklica ni umrla, ampak spi.« In posmehovali so se mu. ⁴⁰ On pa vse odslovi, vzame s seboj očeta in mater deklice in te, ki so bili z njim, in gre tja, kjer je deklica ležala. ⁴¹ Prime deklico za roko in ji ukaže:

»Talíta kum«

– kar pomeni: »Deklica, rečem ti, vstani!« ⁴² In deklica je brž vstala in hodila; imela je namreč dvanajst let. Obšla jih je silna groza. ⁴³ In ostro jim je zabičal, naj tega nihče ne zve; in rekel je, naj ji dajo jesti.

Dragi bratje in sestre! (torek 4. Navadnega tedna, Sv. Don Bosko; 31.1.12)
Danes lahko iz evangelija občudujemo ženo in Jaira, ki sta bila polna vere in vedela sta, da ju lahko reši življenjskih muk le Jezus in v to sta tudi zaupala. Kakšna vera torej, kakšno zaupanje.
Na drugi strani pa sprva krvotočna žena in deklica, ki sta praktično mrtvi, v njiju ni veliko upanja, sta duhovno mrtvi. Tako sta deklica in žena podoba vseh nas. Deklica, kar v grščini pomeni korasion denimo dekle za možitev. Če deklica nima ob sebi ženina in je ne prime za roko, životari, kajti naše življenje je v tem, da ljubimo Boga kakor nas on ljubi. Žena pa že dvanajst let trpi za to boleznijo, kar bi pomenilo seveda simboliko števila 12, kot polnost, od vedno.
A tukaj je sedaj ključen trenutek, žena prepozna in začne verovati in je prepričana, da more samo Jezus pinesti ozdravitev, kajti bila je nad zdravniki razočarana, celo obupala je nad njimi. Še bolj pa je smrt opazna pri deklici in tukaj je potrebno videti, da poleg telesne smrti gre tukaj dosti bolj še za drugo smrt, za smrt srca in duše. Smrt duše nastopi, ko človek živi v grehu; smrt srca nastopi, ko človek živi tesnobno, obupuje ali pa je neprestano žalosten. Jezusove besede:

»Talíta kum

– deklica, vstani!« torej niso namenjene le mrtvim dečkom in deklicam, ampak tudi živim fantom in dekletom, še toliko bolj pa vsem nam.

Kako žalostno je videti … žalostne mlade…. In koliko jih je med nami, Bog varuj da bi bili tudi med nami. Žalost, pesimizem, brezvoljnost do življenja je vedno nekaj težkega, toda ko to opazimo ali pa slišimo pri mladih, nas še bolj stisne pri srcu.
Med nami so mladostniki, ki imajo na videz vse, vključno z računalnikom in motorjem. Toda, če jih skušaš spodbuditi k upanju in veselju, odgovorijo (in njihov obraz izraža, da ne gre za narejenost): »Mi lahko poveš razlog, en sam razlog, zaradi česar bi moral biti srečen?«. Radi bi jim odgovorili: »Ker si mlad/a, ker te Bog ljubi, ker te ljubijo tvoji starši …«, a zavedamo se, da to ne koristi, ostane nam le pogled pomilovanja in naklonjenosti. Včasih nam je, da bi v takem primeru v sebi zakričali: »Okrutni in zlobni svet, ki tem mladim ubijaš veselje do življenja! Obljubljaš jim širino morja in višino gora, potem pa jih puščaš suhih ust srca«. Z močno vero se moremo temu stanju postaviti po robu in moremo plavati proti toku.
Dragi bratje tudi sveti Don Bosko je bil še kako poln vere in optimizma, ne le v svojem življenju, marveč še toliko bolj v življenju mladih ljudi, tistih mladih, ki so bili brez upanja in vere, ki niso bili ljubljeni od bližnjega, pokazal jim je,

kako jih Bog ljubi

in tako so mnogi sprejeli vero in jo našli kakor danes ta krvotočna žena, prepoznala je da le Jezus prinaša življenje in temu je verovala ter bila je tako ozdravljena bolezni najprej duhovne in kasneje tudi telesne. Tega z vero obogatenega pogleda Bog pričakuje tudi od nas in ne le navideznega kimanja s svetom.
Bodimo tudi mi prinašalci vere, upanja in ljubezni, tistega kar Bog pričakuje od nas in naj nam pri tem pomaga priprošnja svetega Janeza don Boska. Amen
