Markus 8
1 I de Dage, da der atter var en stor Skare, og de intet havde at spise, kaldte han sine Disciple til sig og siger til dem:
About that time there was again an immense crowd, and they found themselves with nothing to eat. So He called His disciples to Him.
2 „Jeg ynkes inderligt over Skaren; thi de have allerede tøvet hos mig i tre Dage og have intet at spise.
"My heart yearns over the people," He said; "for this is now the third day they have remained with me, and they have nothing to eat.
3 Og dersom jeg lader dem gaa fastende hjem, ville de vansmægte paa Vejen, og nogle af dem ere komne langvejsfra.‟
If I were to send them home hungry, they would faint on the way, some of them having come a great distance."
4 Og hans Disciple svarede ham: „Hvorfra skal nogen kunne mætte disse med Brød her i en Ørken?‟
"Where can we possibly get bread here in this remote place to satisfy such a crowd?" answered His disciples.
5 Og han spurgte dem: „Hvor mange Brød have I?‟ Og de sagde: „Syv.‟
"How many loaves have you?" He asked. "Seven," they said.
6 Og han byder Skaren at sætte sig ned paa Jorden; og han tog de syv Brød, takkede, brød dem og gav sine Disciple dem, at de skulde lægge dem for; og de lagde dem for Skaren.
So He passed the word to the people to sit down on the ground. Then taking the seven loaves He blessed them, and broke them into portions and proceeded to give them to His disciples for them to distribute, and they distributed them to the people.
7 Og de havde nogle faa Smaafisk; og han velsignede dem og sagde, at ogsaa disse skulde lægges for.
They had also a few small fish. He blessed them, and He told His disciples to distribute these also.
8 Og de spiste og bleve mætte; og de opsamlede af tiloversblevne Stykker syv Kurve.
So the people ate an abundant meal; and what remained over they picked up and carried away--seven hampers of broken pieces.
9 Men de vare omtrent fire Tusinde; og han lod dem gaa bort.
The number fed were about 4,000. Then He sent them away,
10 Og straks gik han om Bord i Skibet med sine Disciple og kom til Dalmanuthas Egne.
and at once going on board with His disciples He came into the district of Dalmanutha.
11 Og Farisæerne gik ud og begyndte at strides med ham og forlangte af ham et Tegn fra Himmelen for at friste ham.
The Pharisees followed Him and began to dispute with Him, asking Him for a sign in the sky, to make trial of Him.
12 Og han sukkede dybt i sin Aand og siger: „Hvorfor forlanger denne Slægt et Tegn? Sandelig, siger jeg eder, der skal ikke gives denne Slægt noget Tegn!‟
Heaving a deep and troubled sigh, He said, "Why do the men of to-day ask for a sign? In solemn truth I tell you that no sign will be given to the men of to-day."
13 Og han forlod dem og gik atter om Bord og for over til hin Side.
So He left them, went on board again, and came away to the other side.
14 Og de havde glemt at tage Brød med og havde kun eet Brød med sig i Skibet.
Now they had forgotten to take bread, nor had they more than a single loaf with them in the boat;
15 Og han bød dem og sagde: „Ser til, tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes Surdejg og Herodes's Surdejg!‟
and when He admonished them, "See to it, be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod,"
16 Og de tænkte med hverandre: „Det er, fordi vi ikke have Brød.‟
they explained His words to one another by saying, "We have no bread!"
17 Og da han mærkede dette, siger han til dem: „Hvorfor tænke I paa, at I ikke have Brød? Skønne I ikke endnu, og forstaa I ikke? Er eders Hjerte forhærdet?
He perceived what they were saying, and He said to them, "What is this discussion of yours about having no bread? Do you not yet see and understand? Are your minds so dull of comprehension?
18 Have I Øjne og se ikke? Og have I Øren og høre ikke? Og komme I ikke i Hu?
You have eyes! can you not see? You have ears! can you not hear? and have you no memory?
19 Da jeg brød de fem Brød til de fem Tusinde, hvor mange Kurve fulde af Stykker toge I da op?‟ De sige til ham: „Tolv.‟
When I broke up the five loaves for the 5,000 men, how many baskets did you carry away full of broken portions?" "Twelve," they said.
20 „Og da jeg brød de syv til de fire Tusinde, hvor mange Kurve fulde af Stykker toge I da op?‟ Og de sige til ham: „Syv.‟
"And when the seven for the 4,000, how many hampers full of portions did you take away?" "Seven," they answered.
21 Og han sagde til dem: „Hvorledes forstaa I da ikke?‟
"Do you not yet understand?" He said.
22 Og de komme til Bethsajda. Og man fører en blind til ham og beder ham om, at han vil røre ved ham.
And they came to Bethsaida. And a blind man was brought to Jesus and they entreated Him to touch him.
23 Og han tog den blinde ved Haanden og førte ham uden for Landsbyen og spyttede paa hans Øjne og lagde Hænderne paa ham og spurgte ham, om han saa noget.
So He took the blind man by the arm and brought him out of the village, and spitting into his eyes He put His hands on him and asked him, "Can you see anything?"
24 Og han saa op og sagde: „Jeg ser Menneskene; thi jeg ser noget ligesom Træer gaa omkring.‟
He looked up and said, "I can see the people: I see them like trees--only walking."
25 Derefter lagde han atter Hænderne paa hans Øjne, og han blev klarsynet og var helbredet og kunde se alle Ting tydeligt.
Then for the second time He put His hands on the man's eyes, and the man, looking steadily, recovered his sight and saw everything distinctly.
26 Og han sendte ham hjem og sagde: „Du maa ikke gaa ind i Landsbyen, [ej heller sige det til nogen i Landsbyen.‟]
So He sent him home, and added, "Do not even go into the village."
27 Og Jesus og hans Disciple gik ud til Landsbyerne ved Kæsarea Filippi; og paa Vejen spurgte han sine Disciple og sagde til dem: „Hvem sige Menneskene, at jeg er?‟
From that place Jesus and His disciples went to the villages belonging to Caesarea Philippi. On the way He began to ask His disciples, "Who do people say that I am?"
28 Og de sagde til ham: „Johannes Døberen; og andre: Elias; men andre: En af Profeterne.‟
"John the Baptist," they replied, "but others say Elijah, and others, that it is one of the Prophets."
29 Og han spurgte dem: „Men I, hvem sige I, at jeg er?‟ Peter svarede og siger til ham: „Du er Kristus.‟
Then He asked them pointedly, "But you yourselves, who do you say that I am?" "You are the Christ," answered Peter.
30 Og han bød dem strengt, at de ikke maatte sige nogen dette om ham.
And He strictly forbad them to tell this about Him to any one.
31 Og han begyndte at lære dem, at Menneskesønnen skulde lide meget og forkastes af de Ældste og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge og ihjelslaas og opstaa efter tre Dage.
And now for the first time He told them, "The Son of Man must endure much suffering, and be rejected by the Elders and the High Priests and the Scribes, and be put to death, and after two days rise to life."
32 Og han talte dette frit ud. Og Peter tog ham til Side og begyndte at sætte ham i Rette.
This He told them plainly; whereupon Peter took Him and began to remonstrate with Him.
33 Men han vendte sig og saa paa sine Disciple og irettesatte Peter og siger: „Vig bag mig, Satan! thi du sanser ikke, hvad Guds er, men hvad Menneskers er.‟
But turning round and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter. "Get behind me, Adversary," He said, "for your thoughts are not God's thoughts, but men's."
34 Og han kaldte Skaren tillige med sine Disciple til sig og sagde til dem: „Den, som vil følge efter mig, han fornægte sig selv og tage sit Kors op og følge mig!
Then calling to Him the crowd and also His disciples, He said to them, "If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross, and so be my follower.
35 Thi den, som vil frelse sit Liv, skal miste det; men den, som mister sit Liv for min og Evangeliets Skyld, han skal frelse det.
For whoever is bent on securing his life will lose it, but he who loses his life for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News, will secure it.
36 Thi hvad gavner det et Menneske at vinde den hele Verden og at bøde med sin Sjæl?
Why, what does it benefit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
37 Thi hvad kunde et Menneske give til Vederlag for sin Sjæl?
For what could a man give to buy back his life?
38 Thi den, som skammer sig ved mig og mine Ord i denne utro og syndige Slægt, ved ham skal ogsaa Menneskesønnen skamme sig, naar han kommer i sin Faders Herlighed med de hellige Engle.‟
Every one, however, who has been ashamed of me and of my teachings in this faithless and sinful age, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in His Father's glory with the holy angels."
