< Markus 2 >
1 Og da han nogle Dage derefter atter gik ind i Kapernaum, spurgtes det, at han var hjemme.
And again He entered into Capernaum, after [some] days, and it was heard that He is in the house,
2 Og der samledes mange, saa at der ikke mere var Plads, end ikke foran Døren; og han talte Ordet til dem.
and immediately many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even at the door, and He was speaking to them the word.
3 Og de komme og bringe til ham en værkbruden, der blev baaren af fire.
And they come to Him, bringing a paralytic, carried by four,
4 Og da de ikke kunde komme nær til ham for Folkeskaren, toge de Taget af, hvor han var; og da de havde brudt Hul, firede de Sengen ned, hvorpaa den værkbrudne laa.
and not being able to come near to Him because of the multitude, they uncovered the roof where He was, and having broken [it] up, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic was lying,
5 Og da Jesus saa deres Tro, siger han til den værkbrudne: „Søn! dine Synder ere forladte.‟
and Jesus having seen their faith, says to the paralytic, “Child, your sins have been forgiven you.”
6 Men nogle af de skriftkloge sade der og tænkte i deres Hjerter:
And there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7 „Hvorfor taler denne saaledes? Han taler bespotteligt. Hvem kan forlade Synder uden een, nemlig Gud?‟
“Why does this One thus speak evil words? Who is able to forgive sins except one—God?”
8 Og Jesus kendte straks i sin Aand, at de tænkte saaledes ved sig selv, og sagde til dem: „Hvorfor tænke I dette i eders Hjerter?
And immediately Jesus, having known in His spirit that they thus reason in themselves, said to them, “Why do you reason these things in your hearts?
9 Hvilket er lettest, at sige til den værkbrudne: Dine Synder ere forladte, eller at sige: Staa op, og tag din Seng, og gaa?
Which is easier? To say to the paralytic, Your sins are forgiven; or to say, Rise, and take up your pallet, and walk?
10 Men for at I skulle vide, at Menneskesønnen har Magt paa Jorden til at forlade Synder, ‟ siger han til den værkbrudne:
And that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins—(He says to the paralytic)—
11 „Jeg siger dig: Staa op, tag din Seng, og gaa til dit Hus!‟
I say to you, rise, and take up your pallet, and go away to your house”;
12 Og han stod op og tog straks Sengen og gik ud for alles Øjne, saa de alle bleve forfærdede og priste Gud og sagde: „Aldrig have vi set noget saadant.‟
and he rose immediately, and having taken up the pallet, he went forth before all, so that all were astonished, and glorify God, saying, “Never thus did we see.”
13 Og han gik atter ud langs Søen, og hele Skaren kom til ham, og han lærte dem.
And He went forth again by the sea, and all the multitude was coming to Him, and He was teaching them,
14 Og da han gik forbi, saa han Levi, Alfæus's Søn sidde ved Toldboden, og han siger til ham: „Følg mig!‟ Og han stod op og fulgte ham.
and passing by, He saw Levi of Alpheus sitting at the tax office, and says to him, “Follow Me,” and he, having risen, followed Him.
15 Og det skete, at han sad til Bords i hans Hus, og mange Toldere og Syndere sade til Bords med Jesus og hans Disciple; thi de vare mange. Og der fulgte ogsaa
And it came to pass, in His reclining in his house, that many tax collectors and sinners were dining with Jesus and His disciples, for there were many, and they followed Him.
16 nogle skriftkloge af Farisæerne med ham, og da de saa, at han spiste med Toldere og Syndere, sagde de til hans Disciple: „Han spiser og drikker med Toldere og Syndere!‟
And the scribes and the Pharisees, having seen Him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, said to His disciples, “Why—that with the tax collectors and sinners He eats and drinks?”
17 Og da Jesus hørte det, siger han til dem: „De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge. Jeg er ikke kommen for at kalde retfærdige, men Syndere.‟
And Jesus, having heard, says to them, “They who are strong have no need of a physician, but they who are ill; I did not come to call righteous men, but sinners.”
18 Og Johannes's Disciple og Farisæerne fastede, og de komme og sige til ham: „Hvorfor faste Johannes's Disciple og Farisæernes Disciple, men dine Disciple faste ikke?‟
And the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting, and they come and say to Him, “Why do the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees fast, and Your disciples do not fast?”
19 Og Jesus sagde til dem: „Kunne Brudesvendene faste, medens Brudgommen er hos dem? Saa længe de have Brudgommen hos sig, kunne de ikke faste.
And Jesus said to them, “Are the sons of the bride-chamber able, while the bridegroom is with them, to fast? As long a time [as] they have the bridegroom with them they are not able to fast;
20 Men der skal komme Dage, da Brudgommen bliver tagen fra dem, da skulle de faste paa den Dag.
but days will come when the bridegroom may be taken from them, and then they will fast—in those days.
21 Ingen syr en Lap af uvalket Klæde paa et gammelt Klædebon; ellers river den nye Lap paa det gamle Klædebon dette itu, og der bliver et værre Hul.
And no one sews a patch of undressed cloth on an old garment, and if not—the new, filling it up, takes from the old and the split becomes worse;
22 Og ingen kommer ung Vin paa gamle Læderflasker; ellers sprænger Vinen Læderflaskerne, og Vinen ødelægges saavel som Læderflaskerne; men kom ung Vin paa nye Læderflasker!‟
and no one puts new wine into old skins, and if not—the new wine bursts the skins, and the wine is poured out, and the skins will be destroyed; but new wine is to be put into new skins.”
23 Og det skete, at han vandrede paa Sabbaten igennem en Sædemark, og hans Disciple begyndte, imedens de gik, at plukke Aks.
And it came to pass—He is going along on the Sabbaths through the grainfields—and His disciples began to make a way, plucking the ears,
24 Og Farisæerne sagde til ham: „Se, hvorfor gøre de paa Sabbaten, hvad der ikke er tilladt?‟
and the Pharisees said to Him, “Behold, why do they do on the Sabbaths that which is not lawful?”
25 Og han siger til dem: „Have I aldrig læst, hvad David gjorde, da han kom i Nød og blev hungrig, han selv og de, som vare med ham?
And He said to them, “Did you never read what David did when he had need and was hungry, he and those with him?
26 Hvorledes han gik ind i Guds Hus, da Abiathar var Ypperstepræst, og spiste Skuebrødene, som det ikke er nogen tilladt at spise uden Præsterne, og gav ogsaa dem, som vare med ham?‟
How he went into the house of God, in [the days of] Abiathar the chief priest, and ate the Bread of the Presentation, which it is not lawful to eat, except to the priests, and he also gave to those who were with him?”
27 Og han sagde til dem: „Sabbaten blev til for Menneskets Skyld, og ikke Mennesket for Sabbatens Skyld.
And He said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath,
28 Derfor er Menneskesønnen Herre ogsaa over Sabbaten.‟
so that the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.”
