Johannes 12
1 Seks Dage før Paaske kom Jesus nu til Bethania, hvor Lazarus boede, han, som Jesus havde oprejst fra de døde.
Then, six days before the Passover, Yeshua came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
2 Der gjorde de da et Aftensmaaltid for ham, og Martha vartede op; men Lazarus var en af dem, som sade til Bords med ham.
So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
3 Da tog Maria et Pund af ægte, saare kostbar Nardussalve og salvede Jesu Fødder og tørrede hans Fødder med sit Haar; og Huset blev fuldt af Salvens Duft.
Therefore Miriam took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed Yeshua’s feet and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
4 Da siger en af hans Disciple, Judas, Simons Søn, Iskariot, han, som siden forraadte ham:
Then Judah Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
5 „Hvorfor blev denne Salve ikke solgt for tre Hundrede Denarer og given til fattige?‟
“Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
6 Men dette sagde han, ikke fordi han brød sig om de fattige, men fordi han var en Tyv og havde Pungen og bar, hvad der blev lagt deri.
Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
7 Da sagde Jesus: „Lad hende med Fred, hun har jo bevaret den til min Begravelsesdag!
But Yeshua said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
8 De fattige have I jo altid hos eder; men mig have I ikke altid.‟
For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
9 En stor Skare af Jøderne fik nu at vide, at han var der; og de kom ikke for Jesu Skyld alene, men ogsaa for at se Lazarus, hvem han havde oprejst fra de døde.
A large crowd therefore of the Judeans learnt that he was there; and they came, not for Yeshua’s sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 Men Ypperstepræsterne raadsloge om ogsaa at slaa Lazarus ihjel;
But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
11 thi for hans Skyld gik mange af Jøderne hen og troede paa Jesus.
because on account of him many of the Judeans went away and believed in Yeshua.
12 Den følgende Dag, da den store Skare, som var kommen til Højtiden, hørte, at Jesus kom til Jerusalem,
On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Yeshua was coming to Jerusalem,
13 toge de Palmegrene og gik ud imod ham og raabte: „Hosanna! velsignet være den, som kommer, i Herrens Navn, Israels Konge!‟
they took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet him, and cried out, “Hoshia'na! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!”
14 Men Jesus fandt et ungt Æsel og satte sig derpaa, som der er skrevet:
Yeshua, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
15 „Frygt ikke, Zions Datter! se, din Konge kommer, siddende paa en Asenindes Føl.‟
“Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
16 Dette forstode hans Disciple ikke først; men da Jesus var herliggjort, da kom de i Hu, at dette var skrevet om ham, og at de havde gjort dette for ham.
His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Yeshua was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.
17 Skaren, som var med ham, vidnede nu, at han havde kaldt Lazarus frem fra Graven og oprejst ham fra de døde.
The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead was testifying about it.
18 Det var ogsaa derfor, at Skaren gik ham i Møde, fordi de havde hørt, at han havde gjort dette Tegn.
For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
19 Da sagde Farisæerne til hverandre: „I se, at I udrette ikke noget; se, Alverden gaar efter ham.‟
The Pharisees therefore said amongst themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
20 Men der var nogle Grækere af dem, som plejede at gaa op for at tilbede paa Højtiden.
Now there were certain Greeks amongst those who went up to worship at the feast.
21 Disse gik nu til Filip, som var fra Bethsajda i Galilæa, og bade ham og sagde: „Herre! vi ønske at se Jesus.‟
Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Yeshua.”
22 Filip kommer og siger det til Andreas, Andreas og Filip komme og sige det til Jesus.
Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Yeshua.
23 Men Jesus svarede dem og sagde: „Timen er kommen, til at Menneskesønnen skal herliggøres.
Yeshua answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
24 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, hvis ikke Hvedekornet falder i Jorden og dør, bliver det ene; men dersom det dør, bærer det megen Frugt.
Most certainly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.
25 Den, som elsker sit Liv, skal miste det; og den, som hader sit Liv i denne Verden, skal bevare det til et evigt Liv. (aiōnios g166)
He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Om nogen tjener mig, han følge mig, og hvor jeg er, der skal ogsaa min Tjener være; om nogen tjener mig, ham skal Faderen ære.
If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there my servant will also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honour him.
27 Nu er min Sjæl forfærdet; og hvad skal jeg sige? Fader, frels mig fra denne Time? Dog, derfor er jeg kommen til denne Time.
“Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time’? But I came to this time for this cause.
28 Fader, herliggør dit Navn!‟ Da kom der en Røst fra Himmelen: „Baade har jeg herliggjort det, og vil jeg atter herliggøre det.‟
Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
29 Da sagde Skaren, som stod og hørte det, at det havde tordnet; andre sagde: „En Engel har talt til ham.‟
Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
30 Jesus svarede og sagde: „Ikke for min Skyld er denne Røst kommen, men for eders Skyld.
Yeshua answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes.
31 Nu gaar der Dom over denne Verden, nu skal denne Verdens Fyrste kastes ud,
Now is the judgement of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
32 og jeg skal, naar jeg bliver ophøjet fra Jorden, drage alle til mig.‟
And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
33 Men dette sagde han for at betegne, hvilken Død han skulde dø.
But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
34 Skaren svarede ham: „Vi have hørt af Loven, at Kristus bliver evindelig, og hvorledes siger da du, at Menneskesønnen bør ophøjes? Hvem er denne Menneskesøn?‟ (aiōn g165)
The multitude answered him, “We have heard out of the law that the Messiah remains forever. How do you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?” (aiōn g165)
35 Da sagde Jesus til dem: „Endnu en liden Tid er Lyset hos eder. Vandrer, medens I have Lyset, for at Mørke ikke skal overfalde eder! Og den, som vandrer i Mørket, ved ikke, hvor han gaar hen.
Yeshua therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.
36 Medens I have Lyset, tror paa Lyset, for at I kunne blive Lysets Børn!‟ Dette talte Jesus, og han gik bort og blev skjult for dem.
While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light.” Yeshua said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.
37 Men endskønt han havde gjort saa mange Tegn for deres Øjne, troede de dog ikke paa ham,
But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,
38 for at Profeten Esajas's Ord skulde opfyldes, som han har sagt: „Herre! hvem troede det, han hørte af os, og for hvem blev Herrens Arm aabenbaret?‟
that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
39 Derfor kunde de ikke tro, fordi Esajas har atter sagt:
For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
40 „Han har blindet deres Øjne og forhærdet deres Hjerte, for at de ikke skulle se med Øjnene og forstaa med Hjertet og omvende sig, saa jeg kunde helbrede dem.‟
“He has blinded their eyes and he hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them.”
41 Dette sagde Esajas, fordi han saa hans Herlighed og talte om ham.
Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
42 Alligevel var der dog mange, endogsaa af Raadsherrerne, som troede paa ham; men for Farisæernes Skyld bekendte de det ikke, for at de ikke skulde blive udelukkede af Synagogen;
Nevertheless, even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they didn’t confess it, so that they wouldn’t be put out of the synagogue,
43 thi de elskede Menneskenes Ære mere end Guds Ære.
for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
44 Men Jesus raabte og sagde: „Den, som tror paa mig, tror ikke paa mig, men paa ham, som sendte mig,
Yeshua cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
45 og den, som ser mig, ser den, som sendte mig.
He who sees me sees him who sent me.
46 Jeg er kommen som et Lys til Verden, for at hver den, som tror paa mig, ikke skal blive i Mørket.
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
47 Og om nogen hører mine Ord og ikke vogter paa dem, ham dømmer ikke jeg; thi jeg er ikke kommen for at dømme Verden, men for at frelse Verden.
If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe, I don’t judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 Den, som foragter mig og ikke modtager mine Ord, har den, som dømmer ham; det Ord, som jeg har talt, det skal dømme ham paa den yderste Dag.
He who rejects me, and doesn’t receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.
49 Thi jeg har ikke talt af mig selv; men Faderen, som sendte mig, han har givet mig Befaling om, hvad jeg skal sige, og hvad jeg skal tale.
For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.
