Lukas 7
1 Men da han havde fuldendt alle sine Ord i Folkets Paahør, gik han ind i Kapernaum.
When Jesus had finished saying all this in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
2 Men en Høvedsmands Tjener, som denne holdt meget af, var syg og nær ved at dø.
There a centurion's servant, who was highly regarded by his master, was sick and about to die.
3 Men da han hørte om Jesus, sendte han nogle af Jødernes Ældste til ham og bad ham om, at han vilde komme og helbrede hans Tjener.
The centurion heard about Jesus and sent some Jewish elders to him, asking him to come and heal his servant.
4 Men da de kom til Jesus, bade de ham indtrængende og sagde: „Han er vel værd, at du gør dette for ham;
When they came to Jesus, they earnestly pleaded with him, saying, “This man is worthy to have yoʋ do this for him,
5 thi han elsker vort Folk, og han har bygget Synagogen for os.‟
for he loves our nation and built our synagogue for us.”
6 Og Jesus gik med dem. Men da han allerede ikke var langt fra Huset, sendte Høvedsmanden nogle Venner og lod ham sige: „Herre! umag dig ikke; thi jeg er ikke værdig til, at du skal gaa ind under mit Tag.
So Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yoʋrself, for I am not worthy to have yoʋ enter under my roof;
7 Derfor agtede jeg heller ikke mig selv værdig til at komme til dig; men sig det med et Ord, saa bliver min Dreng helbredet.
therefore I did not even consider myself worthy to come to yoʋ. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Jeg er jo selv et Menneske, som staar under Øvrighed og har Stridsmænd under mig; og siger jeg til den ene: Gaa! saa gaar han; og til den anden: Kom! saa kommer han; og til min Tjener: Gør dette! saa gør han det.‟
For I too am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me. I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
9 Men da Jesus hørte dette, forundrede han sig over ham; og han vendte sig om og sagde til Skaren, som fulgte ham: „Jeg siger eder, end ikke i Israel har jeg fundet saa stor en Tro.‟
When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at the centurion. And turning to the crowd that was following him, he said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”
10 Og da de, som vare udsendte, kom tilbage til Huset, fandt de den syge Tjener sund.
Then the men the centurion had sent returned to the house and found that the servant who had been sick was well.
11 Og det skete Dagen derefter, at han gik til en By, som hed Nain, og der gik mange af hans Disciple og en stor Skare med ham.
Soon afterward Jesus went to a town called Nain, and many of his disciples went with him, along with a large crowd.
12 Men da han nærmede sig Byens Port, se, da blev en død baaren ud, som var sin Moders enbaarne Søn, og hun var Enke; og en stor Skare fra Byen gik med hende.
As he drew near to the gate of the town, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the one and only son of his mother (who was a widow). And a large crowd from the town was with her.
13 Og da Herren saa hende, ynkedes han inderligt over hende og sagde til hende: „Græd ikke!‟
When the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her and said to her, “Do not weep.”
14 Og han traadte til og rørte ved Baaren; men de, som bare, stode stille, og han sagde: „Du unge Mand, jeg siger dig, staa op!‟
Then he came up and touched the bier, and those who were carrying it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to yoʋ, arise!”
15 Og den døde rejste sig op og begyndte at tale; og han gav ham til hans Moder.
So the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
16 Men Frygt betog alle, og de priste Gud og sagde: „Der er en stor Profet oprejst iblandt os, og Gud har besøgt sit Folk.‟
Then all the people were filled with awe and began glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us,” and, “God has visited his people.”
17 Og denne Tale om ham kom ud i hele Judæa og i hele det omliggende Land.
This news about Jesus then spread throughout Judea and all the surrounding region.
18 Og Johannes's Disciple fortalte ham om alt dette. Og Johannes kaldte to af sine Disciple til sig
John's disciples told him about all these things.
19 og sendte dem til Herren og lod sige: „Er du den, som kommer, eller skulle vi vente en anden?‟
So John called two of his disciples and sent them to ask Jesus, “Are yoʋ the one who is to come, or should we wait for another?”
20 Og da Mændene kom til ham, sagde de: „Johannes Døberen har sendt os til dig og lader sige: Er du den, som kommer, eller skulle vi vente en anden?‟
When the men came to him, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to yoʋ to ask, ‘Are yoʋ the one who is to come, or should we wait for another?’”
21 I den samme Time helbredte han mange for Sygdomme og Plager og onde Aander og skænkede mange blinde Synet.
Now in that very hour Jesus had healed many people of diseases, afflictions, and evil spirits, and had given sight to many who were blind.
22 Og han svarede og sagde til dem: „Gaar hen, og forkynder Johannes de Ting, som I have set og hørt: Blinde se, lamme gaa, spedalske renses, døve høre, døde staa op, Evangeliet forkyndes for fattige;
So Jesus replied to John's disciples, “Go tell John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have good news preached to them.
23 og salig er den, som ikke forarges paa mig.‟
And blessed is anyone who does not take offense at me.”
24 Men da Johannes's Sendebud vare gaaede bort, begyndte han at sige til Skarerne om Johannes: „Hvad gik I ud i Ørkenen at skue? Et Rør, som bevæges hid og did af Vinden?
When John's messengers had gone away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Eller hvad gik I ud at se? Et Menneske, iført bløde Klæder? Se, de, som leve i prægtige Klæder og i Vellevned, ere i Kongsgaardene.
What then did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Behold, those who are dressed in splendid clothing and who live in luxury are in royal palaces.
26 Eller hvad gik I ud at se? En Profet? Ja, siger jeg eder, endog mere end en Profet!
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
27 Han er den, om hvem der er skrevet: Se, jeg sender min Engel for dit Ansigt, han skal berede din Vej foran dig.
This is the one of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of yoʋ, who will prepare yoʋr way before yoʋ.’
28 Jeg siger eder: Iblandt dem, som ere fødte af Kvinder, er ingen større Profet end Johannes; men den mindste i Guds Rige er større end han.
For I tell you, among those born of women there is no prophet greater than John the Baptist, but whoever is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 Og hele Folket, som hørte ham, endog Tolderne, gav Gud Ret, idet de bleve døbte med Johannes's Daab.
(When all the people heard this, including the tax collectors, they affirmed that God's way was right, because they had been baptized with the baptism of John.
30 Men Farisæerne og de lovkyndige have foragtet Guds Raad med dem selv, idet de ikke bleve døbte af ham.
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the will of God for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.)
31 Ved hvem skal jeg da ligne denne Slægts Mennesker? og hvem ligne de?
Jesus went on to say, “To what then should I compare the people of this generation, and what are they like?
32 De ligne Børn, som sidde paa Torvet og raabe til hverandre og sige: Vi blæste paa Fløjte for eder, og I dansede ikke, vi sang Klagesange for eder, og I græd ikke.
They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call out to one another, ‘We played the flute for you, but you did not dance; we sang a lament for you, but you did not weep.’
33 Thi Johannes Døberen kom, som hverken spiste Brød eller drak Vin, og I sige: Han er besat.
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
34 Menneskesønnen kom, som spiser og drikker, og I sige: Se, en Fraadser og en Vindranker, Tolderes og Synderes Ven!
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Dog Visdommen er retfærdiggjort ved alle sine Børn.‟
Yet wisdom is justified by all her children.”
36 Men en af Farisæerne bad ham om, at han vilde spise med ham; og han gik ind i Farisæerens Hus og satte sig til Bords.
One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to eat with him, so he went into the Pharisee's house and reclined at the table.
37 Og se, der var en Kvinde, som var en Synderinde i Byen; da hun fik at vide, at han sad til Bords i Farisæerens Hus, kom hun med en Alabastkrukke med Salve;
And behold, when a woman in that city who was a sinner found out that Jesus was reclining at the table in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 og hun stillede sig bag ved ham, ved hans Fødder og græd og begyndte at væde hans Fødder med sine Taarer og aftørrede dem med sit Hovedhaar og kyssede hans Fødder og salvede dem med Salven.
As she stood behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Men da Farisæeren, som havde indbudt ham, saa det, sagde han ved sig selv: „Dersom denne var en Profet, vidste han, hvem og hvordan en Kvinde denne er, som rører ved ham, at hun er en Synderinde.‟
When the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner.”
40 Og Jesus tog til Orde og sagde til ham: „Simon! jeg har noget at sige dig.‟ Men han siger: „Mester, sig frem!‟
Jesus said to him in response, “Simon, I have something to say to yoʋ.” So he said, “Say it, Teacher.”
41 „En Mand, som udlaante Penge, havde to Skyldnere; den ene var fem Hundrede Denarer skyldig, men den anden halvtredsindstyve.
“A certain moneylender had two debtors. The one owed him five hundred denarii, and the other owed him fifty.
42 Da de ikke havde noget at betale med, eftergav han dem det begge. Hvem af dem vil nu elske ham mest?‟
When they did not have the means to repay, he forgave the debts of them both. So tell me, which of them will love him more?”
43 Simon svarede og sagde: „Jeg holder for, den, hvem han eftergav mest?‟ Men han sagde til ham: „Du dømte ret.‟
Simon answered, “I suppose that it would be the one for whom he forgave the larger debt.” Jesus said to him, “Yoʋ have judged correctly.”
44 Og han vendte sig imod Kvinden og sagde til Simon: „Ser du denne Kvinde? Jeg kom ind i dit Hus; du gav mig ikke Vand til mine Fødder; men hun vædede mine Fødder med sine Taarer og aftørrede dem med sit Haar.
Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do yoʋ see this woman? When I came into yoʋr house, yoʋ did not give me water for my feet, but this woman has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Du gav mig intet Kys; men hun ophørte ikke med at kysse mine Fødder, fra jeg kom herind.
Yoʋ did not give me a kiss, but from the time I came in, this woman has not stopped kissing my feet.
46 Du salvede ikke mit Hoved med Olie; men hun salvede mine Fødder med Salve.
Yoʋ did not anoint my head with oil, but this woman has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Derfor siger jeg dig: Hendes mange Synder ere hende forladte, eftersom hun elskede meget; men den, hvem lidet forlades, elsker lidet.‟
Therefore I tell yoʋ, her many sins are forgiven; that is why she has shown great love. But he to whom little is forgiven shows little love.”
48 Men han sagde til hende: „Dine Synder ere forladte!‟
Then Jesus said to her, “Yoʋr sins are forgiven.”
49 Og de, som sade til Bords med ham, begyndte at sige ved sig selv: „Hvem er denne, som endog forlader Synder?‟
Those who were reclining at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this man that even forgives sins?”
50 Men han sagde til Kvinden: „Din Tro har frelst dig, gaa bort med Fred!‟
And Jesus said to the woman, “Yoʋr faith has saved yoʋ; go in peace.”
