Markus 14
1 Men to Dage derefter var det Paaske og de usyrede Brøds Højtid. Og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge søgte, hvorledes de med List kunde gribe og ihjelslaa ham.
It was only two days before the [people] ([celebrated/started to celebrate]) [for one week the] festival [which they called] Passover. During those days they also celebrated the festival of (Unleavened Bread/[eating] bread that had no yeast in it). The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws were planning how they could seize Jesus secretly. [They wanted to accuse him in front of the Roman authorities] so that they would execute him.
2 Thi de sagde: „Ikke paa Højtiden, for at der ikke skal blive Oprør iblandt Folket.‟
But they were saying to one another, “We must not [do it] during the celebration, because, [if we do it then], the people will [be very angry with us and] riot!”
3 Og da han var i Bethania, i Simon den spedalskes Hus, kom der, medens han sad til Bords, en Kvinde, som havde en Alabastkrukke med ægte, saare kostbar Nardussalve; og hun sønderbrød Alabastkrukken og udgød den paa hans Hoved.
Jesus was at Bethany [town] in the house of Simon, whom [Jesus had healed from] leprosy. While they were eating, a woman came [to him]. [She was carrying] a stone jar that contained expensive [fragrant] perfume called nard. She opened the jar and then she poured the perfume on Jesus’ head.
4 Men der var nogle, som bleve vrede hos sig selv og sagde: „Hvortil er denne Spilde af Salven sket?
One of the people [who were present] became angry and said to the others, “([It is terrible that she] wasted that perfume!/[Why did she] waste that perfume?) [RHQ]
5 Denne Salve kunde jo være solgt for mere end tre Hundrede Denarer og være given til de fattige.‟ Og de overfusede hende.
It could have been sold {[We] could have sold it} for (a huge amount of money/an amount of money for which a person works for a year), and then [the money] could have been given {[we] could have given [the money]} to poor people!” So he rebuked her.
6 Men Jesus sagde: „Lader hende være, hvorfor volde I hende Fortrædeligheder? Hun har gjort en god Gerning imod mig.
But Jesus said, “Stop [scolding] her! She has done to me what I [consider to be] very appropriate/delightful. So (you should not bother her!/why do you bother her?) [RHQ]
7 De fattige have I jo altid hos eder, og naar I ville, kunne I gøre vel imod dem; men mig have I ikke altid.
You will always have poor people among you. So you can help them whenever you want to. But I will not [be here among] you much longer. [So it is good for her to show now that she appreciates me].
8 Hun gjorde, hvad hun kunde; hun salvede forud mit Legeme til Begravelsen.
[It is appropriate that] she has done what she was able to do. [It is as if she knew that I was going to die soon] and has anointed my body for their burying it.
9 Sandelig, siger jeg eder, hvor som helst i hele Verden Evangeliet bliver prædiket, skal ogsaa det, som hun har gjort, omtales til hendes Ihukommelse.‟
I will tell you this: Wherever the good message [about me] is preached {people preach the good message} throughout the world, what she has done will be told {people will tell others what she has done [to me]}, and as a result people will remember her.”
10 Og Judas Iskariot, en af de tolv, gik hen til Ypperstepræsterne for at forraade ham til dem.
Then Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]) went to the chief priests in order to [talk to them about] helping them to seize Jesus. He did that [even though] he was one of the twelve [disciples]
11 Men da de hørte det, bleve de glade og de lovede at give ham Penge; og han søgte, hvorledes han kunde faa Lejlighed til at forraade ham.
When they heard [what he was willing to do for them], they were very happy. They promised that they would give him [a large amount of] money [for doing that. Judas agreed, so they gave him the money]. As a result, he [began] watching for an opportunity (to betray Jesus/to enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him).
12 Og paa de usyrede Brøds første Dag, da man slagtede Paaskelammet, sige hans Disciple til ham: „Hvor vil du, at vi skulle gaa hen og træffe Forberedelse til, at du kan spise Paaskelammet?‟
[Two days later], when they killed the lambs [for the] festival at the beginning of the week when [people ate] bread that had no yeast in it, Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare the meal for the Passover [celebration] in order that you can eat it [with us]?”
13 Og han sender to af sine Disciple og siger til dem: „Gaar ind i Staden, saa skal der møde eder en Mand, som bærer en Vandkrukke; følger ham;
So he [chose] two of his disciples [to prepare everything]. He said to them, “Go into [Jerusalem] city. A man will meet you, who will be carrying a large jar full of water. Follow him.
14 og hvor han gaar ind, der skulle I sige til Husbonden: Mesteren siger: Hvor er mit Herberge, hvor jeg kan spise Paaskelammet med mine Disciple?
When he enters [a house], say to the man who owns the house, ‘[Our] teacher wants us to prepare [the meal of] the Passover celebration so that he can eat it with us his disciples. (Please show us the room that he [arranged with you about]./Where is the room that he [arranged with you about]?) [RHQ]’
15 Og han skal vise eder en stor Sal, opdækket og rede; og der skulle I berede det for os.‟
He will show you a large room that is on the upper floor [of the house]. It will be furnished and ready [for us to eat a meal in it]. Then prepare the meal there for us.”
16 Og hans Disciple gik bort og kom ind i Staden og fandt det, saaledes som han havde sagt dem; og de beredte Paaskelammet.
So the [two] disciples left. They went into the city and found [everything] to be just like he had told them. They prepared the [meal for] the Passover [celebration, and then returned to Jesus and the other disciples].
17 Og da det var blevet Aften, kommer han med de tolv.
When it was evening, Jesus arrived [at that house] with the twelve [disciples].
18 Og medens de sade til Bords og spiste, sagde Jesus: „Sandelig siger jeg eder, en af eder, som spiser med mig, vil forraade mig.‟
As they were all sitting there [and eating], Jesus said, “Listen carefully to this: One of you will enable my enemies to seize me. Specifically, it is one of you who [will do this in spite of the fact that he] is eating with me [right now]!”
19 De begyndte at bedrøves og at sige til ham, en efter en: „Det er dog vel ikke mig?‟
The disciples became very sad and they said to him one by one, “Surely (it is not I!/I am not the one, am I?) [RHQ]”
20 Men han sagde til dem: „En af de tolv, den, som dypper med mig i Fadet.
Then he said to them, “It is one of [you] twelve [disciples], the one who is dipping [bread] into the [sauce in the] dish along with me.
21 Thi Menneskesønnen gaar vel bort, som der er skrevet om ham; men ve det Menneske, ved hvem Menneskesønnen bliver forraadt! Det var godt for det Menneske, om han ikke var født.‟
It is certain that [I], the one who came from heaven, will [die], because that is what has been {what [the prophets] have} written about me. But there will be terrible [punishment] for the man by whom I will be betrayed {who will (betray me/help my enemies to seize me)}! In fact, it would be better for that man if he had never been born!”
22 Og medens de spiste, tog han Brød, velsignede og brød det og gav dem det og sagde: „Tager det; dette er mit Legeme.‟
While they were eating, he took [a flat loaf of] bread and thanked God for it. Then he broke it [into pieces] and gave it to them and said to them, “This [bread represents] [MET] my body. Take it [and eat it].”
23 Og han tog en Kalk, takkede og gav dem den; og de drak alle deraf.
Afterwards, he took a cup [that contained wine] and thanked [God for it]. Then he gave it to them, and then, as they all drank from it,
24 Og han sagde til dem: „Dette er mit Blod, Pagtens, hvilket udgydes for mange.
he said to them, “This [wine represents] [MET] my blood, which is about to be shed {which is about to flow from my body} [when my enemies kill me]. With this blood I [will sign] the agreement [that God has made to forgive the sins of] many people.
25 Sandelig, siger jeg eder, at jeg skal ingen Sinde mere drikke af Vintræets Frugt indtil den Dag, da jeg skal drikke den ny i Guds Rige.‟
I want you to know this: I will not drink any more wine in this way until the time when I drink it with a new [meaning] when I begin to rule as a king.”
26 Og da de havde sunget Lovsangen, gik de ud til Oliebjerget.
After they sang a hymn, they went out toward Olive [Tree] Hill.
27 Og Jesus siger til dem: „I skulle alle forarges; thi der er skrevet: Jeg vil slaa Hyrden, og Faarene skulle adspredes.
[While they were on their way], Jesus said to them, “It has been {[The prophets] have} written [in the Scriptures that God said about me], ‘I will kill the shepherd and his sheep will scatter.’ [Those words will come true. When they are about to capture me], all of you will leave me and run away.
28 Men efter at jeg er bleven oprejst, vil jeg gaa forud for eder til Galilæa.‟
But after I have been made {[God] has made me} alive again, I will go ahead of you to Galilee [district and meet you there].”
29 Men Peter sagde til ham: „Dersom de endog alle forarges, vil jeg dog ikke forarges.‟
Then Peter said to him, “Perhaps all the [other disciples] will leave you, but not I! I will not [leave you]!”
30 Og Jesus siger til ham: „Sandelig siger jeg dig, i Dag, i denne Nat, førend Hanen galer to Gange, skal du fornægte mig tre Gange.‟
Then Jesus said to him, “The truth is that this very night, before the rooster crows a second time, you yourself will deny three times [that you know] me!”
31 Men han sagde end yderligere: „Om jeg end skulde dø med dig, vil jeg ingenlunde fornægte dig.‟ Men ligesaa sagde de ogsaa alle.
But Peter replied strongly, “Even if they kill me [as I defend] you, I will never deny [that I know] you!” And all [the other disciples] said the same thing.
32 Og de komme til en Gaard, hvis Navn var Gethsemane; og han siger til sine Disciple: „Sætter eder her, imedens jeg beder.‟
[On the way], Jesus and the disciples came to the place that [people] call Gethsemane. Then he said to [some/eight of] his disciples, “Stay here while I pray!”
33 Og han tager Peter og Jakob og Johannes med sig, og han begyndte at forfærdes og svarlig at ængstes.
Then he took Peter, James, and John with him. He became extremely distressed, and he said to them,
34 Og han siger til dem: „Min Sjæl er dybt bedrøvet indtil Døden; bliver her og vaager!‟
“I [SYN] am very sorrowful. [It is as if] I were about to die. [You men] remain here and stay awake!”
35 Og han gik lidt frem, kastede sig ned paa Jorden og bad om, at den Time maatte gaa ham forbi, om det var muligt.
He went a bit further and threw himself on the ground. Then he prayed that if it were possible, he would not [have to suffer] [MTY].
36 Og han sagde: „Abba Fader! alting er dig muligt; tag denne Kalk fra mig; dog ikke hvad jeg vil, men hvad du vil.‟
He said, “O my Father, [because] you are able to do everything, rescue me so that I do not have to suffer [now] [MTY]! But do not [do] what I want. Instead, [do] what you want!”
37 Og han kommer og finder dem sovende og siger til Peter: „Simon, sover du? Kunde du ikke vaage een Time?
Then he returned and found his [disciples] sleeping. He [woke them up and] said, “Simon! ([I am disappointed that] you fell asleep and that you were not able to stay awake for just a short time!/[Why is it that] you fell asleep and that you were not able to stay awake for just one hour?) [RHQ]”
38 Vaager og beder, for at I ikke skulle falde i Fristelse; Aanden er vel redebon, men Kødet er skrøbeligt.‟
[And he said to them], “You want [to do what I say], but you are not strong enough [MTY] [to actually do it]. So keep awake and pray in order that you can resist when [something like this] tempts you!”
39 Og han gik atter hen og bad og sagde det samme Ord.
Then he went away again and prayed again what he prayed before.
40 Og han vendte tilbage og fandt dem atter sovende; thi deres Øjne vare betyngede, og de vidste ikke, hvad de skulde svare ham.
When he returned, he found that they were sleeping again because they were [so] sleepy that they could not keep their eyes open. [Because they were ashamed], they did not know what to say to him [when he awakened them].
41 Og han kommer tredje Gang og siger til dem: „Sove I fremdeles og hvile eder? Det er nok; Timen er kommen; se, Menneskesønnen forraades i Synderes Hænder.
[Then he went and prayed again]. He returned a third time; [and he found them sleeping again]. He [woke] all of [them and] said to them, “([I am disappointed that you are] sleeping again!/[Why are you] sleeping again?) [RHQ] [You have slept] enough. The time [for me to suffer] is about to begin. Look! Someone is about to enable sinful men to seize me, the one who came from heaven.
42 Staar op, lader os gaa; se, han, som forraader mig, er nær.‟
[So] get up! Let’s go [toward him] Look! Here comes the one who is enabling them to seize me!”
43 Og straks, medens han endnu talte, kommer Judas, en af de tolv, og med ham en stor Skare med Sværd og Knipler fra Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge og de Ældste.
While he was still speaking, Judas [arrived]. [Even though he was] one of [Jesus’] twelve [disciples], he came [to enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him]. A crowd who carried swords and clubs was with him. The [leaders of] the Jewish Council had sent them.
44 Men han, som forraadte ham, havde givet dem et aftalt Tegn og sagt: „Den, som jeg kysser, ham er det; griber ham, og fører ham sikkert bort!‟
[Judas], who was (betraying Jesus/helping Jesus’ enemies to seize him), had [previously] told this crowd, “The man whom I kiss is the one [whom you want. When I kiss him], seize him and lead him away [while you guard him] carefully.”
45 Og da han kom, traadte han straks hen til ham og siger: „Rabbi! Rabbi!‟ og han kyssede ham.
So, when Judas arrived, he immediately went to Jesus and said, “My teacher!” Then he kissed Jesus [on his neck/cheek].
46 Men de lagde Haand paa ham og grebe ham.
Then [the crowd] seized Jesus.
47 Men en af dem, som stode hos, drog Sværdet, slog Ypperstepræstens Tjener og afhuggede hans Øre.
But one of the [disciples] who was standing nearby drew his short sword. He struck the servant of the high priest with it [to kill him, but he only] cut off his ear.
48 Og Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: „I ere gaaede ud som imod en Røver, med Sværd og med Knipler for at fange mig.
Jesus said to them, “([It is ridiculous that] you come [here to seize] me with swords and clubs, as if I were a bandit!/Have you come [here to seize] me with swords and clubs, as if I were a bandit [RHQ]?) Day after day I was with you in the Temple [courtyard] teaching [the people] Why did you not seize me then? [But this is happening] in order that [what the prophets have written in] the Scriptures [about me] may be fulfilled {may happen}.”
49 Daglig var jeg hos eder i Helligdommen og lærte, og I grebe mig ikke; men dette sker, for at Skrifterne skulle opfyldes.‟
50 Og de forlode ham alle og flyede.
All [the disciples at once] left him and ran away.
51 Og en enkelt, et ungt Menneske, som havde et Linklæde over det blotte Legeme, fulgte med ham; og de gribe ham;
At that time, (a young man/I) was following Jesus. He/[I was] wearing only a linen cloth around his/my body. The crowd seized him/me.
52 men han slap Linklædet og flygtede nøgen.
But, [as he/I pulled away from them], he/I left behind the linen cloth [in their hands], and then he/I ran away naked.
53 Og de førte Jesus hen til Ypperstepræsten; og alle Ypperstepræsterne og de Ældste og de skriftkloge komme sammen hos ham.
The men [who had seized] Jesus led him away to [the house where] the supreme priest [lived]. All of the Jewish Council were gathering [there].
54 Og Peter fulgte ham i Frastand til ind i Ypperstepræstens Gaard, og han sad hos Svendene og varmede sig ved Ilden.
Peter followed Jesus at a distance. He went into the courtyard [of the house] where the supreme priest [lived], and sat there with the men who guarded [the house of the supreme priest]. He was warming himself beside a fire.
55 Men Ypperstepræsterne og hele Raadet søgte Vidnesbyrd imod Jesus, for at de kunde aflive ham; og de fandt intet.
The chief priests and all the rest of the Jewish council [had already] tried to find people who would tell lies about Jesus [in order that they could convince the Roman authorities] to execute him. But they did not succeed,
56 Thi mange sagde falsk Vidnesbyrd imod ham, men Vidnesbyrdene stemmede ikke overens.
because, although many people spoke lies about him, they contradicted each other.
57 Og nogle stode op og vidnede falsk imod ham og sagde:
[Finally], some stood up and accused him falsely by saying,
58 „Vi have hørt ham sige: Jeg vil nedbryde dette Tempel, som er gjort med Hænder, og i tre Dage bygge et andet, som ikke er gjort med Hænder.‟
“We heard him when he said, ‘I will destroy this Temple that was built by men, and then within three days I will build another temple (without help from anyone else/that human hands will not build).’”
59 Og end ikke saaledes stemmede deres Vidnesbyrd overens.
But, what [some of] these men said also did not agree with [what others of them said].
60 Og Ypperstepræsten stod op midt iblandt dem og spurgte Jesus og sagde: „Svarer du slet intet paa, hvad disse vidne imod dig?‟
Then the supreme priest [himself] stood up in front of them and said to Jesus, “Are you not going to reply? What [do you say about] all the things that they are saying in order to accuse you?”
61 Men han tav og svarede intet. Atter spurgte Ypperstepræsten ham og siger til ham: „Er du Kristus, den Højlovedes Søn?‟
But Jesus was silent and did not reply [DOU]. Then the supreme priest [tried again]. He asked him, “Are you the Messiah? [Do you say that you are] (the Son of God/the man who is also God)?”
62 Men Jesus sagde: „Jeg er det; og I skulle se Menneskesønnen sidde ved Kraftens højre Haand og komme med Himmelens Skyer.‟
Jesus said, “I am. Furthermore, you will see me, the one who came from heaven, [ruling] beside God, who is completely powerful. [You will also see me] coming down through the clouds in the sky!”
63 Men Ypperstepræsten sønderrev sine Klæder og sagde: „Hvad have vi længere Vidner nødig?
[In response to Jesus’ words], the supreme priest tore his outer garment. [That was their custom to show that he was shocked that Jesus had said that he was equal to God]. Then he said, “We certainly do not [RHQ] need any [more] people who will testify [against this man],
64 I have hørt Gudsbespottelsen; hvad tykkes eder?‟ Men de fældede alle den Dom over ham, at han var skyldig til Døden.
[because] you have heard what he said against God! [He claimed to be equal with God] Therefore, what have you decided?” They all said that Jesus was guilty and deserved (to be executed/that they should kill him).
65 Og nogle begyndte at spytte paa ham og tilhylle hans Ansigt og give ham Næveslag og sige til ham: „Profetér!‟ og Svendene modtoge ham med Slag paa Kinden.
Then some of them began spitting on Jesus. They put a blindfold on him, and then they began striking him and saying to him, “[If you are] a prophet, tell us [who hit you]!” And those who were guarding Jesus struck him with their hands.
66 Og medens Peter var nedenfor i Gaarden, kommer en af Ypperstepræstens Piger,
While Peter was outside in the courtyard [of the supreme priest’s house], one of the girls who worked for the supreme priest came [near him].
67 og da hun ser Peter varme sig, ser hun paa ham og siger: „Ogsaa du var med Nazaræeren, med Jesus.‟
When she saw Peter warming himself [beside the fire], she looked at him [closely]. Then she said, “You also were with Jesus, that man from Nazareth [town]!”
68 Men han nægtede og sagde: „Jeg hverken ved eller forstaar, hvad du siger; ‟ og han gik ud i Forgaarden, og Hanen galede.
But he denied it by saying, “I do not know or understand [DOU] what you are talking about!” Then he went away [from there] to the gate [of the courtyard].
69 Og Pigen saa ham og begyndte atter at sige til dem, som stode hos: „Denne er en af dem.‟
[The] servant girl saw him there and said to the people who were standing nearby, “This man is one of [those who have been with that man they arrested].”
70 Men han nægtede det atter. Og lidt derefter sagde atter de, som stode hos, til Peter: „Sandelig du er en af dem; du er jo ogsaa en Galilæer.‟
But he denied it again. After a little while, one of those who were standing there said to Peter again, “[The way you speak shows that] you also are from Galilee [district]. So it is certain that you are one of those [who accompanied Jesus!]”
71 Men han begyndte at forbande sig og sværge: „Jeg kender ikke dette Menneske, om hvem I tale.‟
But he began to exclaim, “I do not know the man that you are talking about! Because God knows that I am speaking truthfully, may he punish me [if I am lying]!”
72 Og straks galede Hanen anden Gang. Og Peter kom det Ord i Hu, som Jesus sagde til ham: „Førend Hanen galer to Gange, skal du fornægte mig tre Gange.‟ Og han brast i Graad.
Immediately the rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said to him [before], “Before the rooster crows a second time, you will deny three times [that you know me.” When he realized that he had denied it three times], he started crying.
