Johannes 10
1 „Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, den, som ikke gaar ind i Faarefolden gennem Døren, men stiger andensteds over, han er en Tyv og en Røver.
"Truly, truly, I tell you, one who does not enter by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
2 Men den, som gaar ind igennem Døren, er Faarenes Hyrde.
But one who enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 For ham lukker Dørvogteren op, og Faarene høre hans Røst; og han kalder sine egne Faar ved Navn og fører dem ud.
The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out.
4 Og naar han har ført alle sine egne Faar ud, gaar han foran dem; og Faarene følge ham, fordi de kende hans Røst.
Whenever he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
5 Men en fremmed ville de ikke følge, men de ville fly fra ham, fordi de ikke kende de fremmedes Røst.‟
They will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him; for they do not know the voice of strangers."
6 Denne Lignelse sagde Jesus til dem; men de forstode ikke, hvad det var, som han talte til dem.
Jesus spoke this parable to them, but they did not understand what he was telling them.
7 Jesus sagde da atter til dem: „Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, jeg er Faarenes Dør.
Jesus therefore said to them again, "Truly, truly, I tell you, I am the sheep's door.
8 Alle de, som ere komne før mig, ere Tyve og Røvere; men Faarene hørte dem ikke.
All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
9 Jeg er Døren; dersom nogen gaar ind igennem mig, han skal frelses; og han skal gaa ind og gaa ud og finde Føde.
I am the door. If anyone enters in by me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out, and will find pasture.
10 Tyven kommer ikke uden for at stjæle og slagte og ødelægge; jeg er kommen, for at de skulle have Liv og have Overflod.
The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
11 Jeg er den gode Hyrde; den gode Hyrde sætter sit Liv til for Faarene.
I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
12 Men Lejesvenden, som ikke er Hyrde, hvem Faarene ikke høre til, ser Ulven komme og forlader Faarene og flyr, og Ulven røver dem og adspreder dem,
He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away; and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.
13 fordi han er en Lejesvend og ikke bryder sig om Faarene.
And the hired hand flees because he is a hired hand and the sheep means nothing to him.
14 Jeg er den gode Hyrde, og jeg kender mine, og mine kende mig,
I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and my own know me;
15 ligesom Faderen kender mig, og jeg kender Faderen; og jeg sætter mit Liv til for Faarene.
even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 Og jeg har andre Faar, som ikke høre til denne Fold; ogsaa dem bør jeg føre, og de skulle høre min Røst; og der skal blive een Hjord, een Hyrde.
I have other sheep, which are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will hear my voice. They will become one flock with one shepherd.
17 Derfor elsker Faderen mig, fordi jeg sætter mit Liv til for at tage det igen.
Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
18 Ingen tager det fra mig, men jeg sætter det til af mig selv. Jeg har Magt til at sætte det til, og jeg har Magt til at tage det igen. Dette Bud modtog jeg af min Fader.‟
No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down by myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father."
19 Der blev atter Splid iblandt Jøderne for disse Ords Skyld.
A division arose again among the Jewish people because of these words.
20 Og mange af dem sagde: „Han er besat og raser, hvorfor høre I ham?‟
Many of them said, "He has a demon, and is insane. Why do you listen to him?"
21 Andre sagde: „Dette er ikke Ord af en besat; mon en ond Aand kan aabne blindes Øjne?‟
Others said, "These are not the sayings of one possessed by a demon. It is not possible for a demon to open the eyes of the blind, is it?"
22 Men Tempelvielsens Fest indtraf i Jerusalem. Det var Vinter;
At that time Hanukkah took place in Jerusalem.
23 og Jesus gik omkring i Helligdommen, i Salomons Søjlegang.
It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in Solomon's porch.
24 Da omringede Jøderne ham og sagde til ham: „Hvor længe holder du vor Sjæl i Uvished? Dersom du er Kristus, da sig os det rent ud!‟
The Jewish leaders therefore came around him and said to him, "How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."
25 Jesus svarede dem: „Jeg har sagt eder det, og I tro ikke. De Gerninger, som jeg gør i min Faders Navn, de vidne om mig;
Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name, these testify about me.
26 men I tro ikke, fordi I ikke ere af mine Faar.
But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.
27 Mine Faar høre min Røst, og jeg kender dem, og de følge mig,
As I said to you, my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
29 Min Fader, som har givet mig dem, er større end alle; og ingen kan rive noget af min Faders Haand.
My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand.
30 Jeg og Faderen, vi ere eet.‟
I and the Father are one."
31 Da toge Jøderne atter Stene op for at stene ham.
Therefore the Jewish leaders took up stones again to stone him.
32 Jesus svarede dem: „Mange gode Gerninger har jeg vist eder fra min Fader; for hvilken af disse Gerninger stene I mig?‟
Jesus answered them, "I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of those works do you stone me?"
33 Jøderne svarede ham: „For en god Gerning stene vi dig ikke, men for Gudsbespottelse, og fordi du, som er et Menneske, gør dig selv til Gud.‟
The Jewish leaders answered him, "We do not stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy: because you, being a man, make yourself God."
34 Jesus svarede dem: „Er der ikke skrevet i eders Lov: Jeg har sagt: I ere Guder?
Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I said, you are gods?'
35 Naar den nu har kaldt dem Guder, til hvem Guds Ord kom (og Skriften kan ikke rokkes),
If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),
36 sige I da til den, hvem Faderen har helliget og sendt til Verden: Du taler bespotteligt, fordi jeg sagde: Jeg er Guds Søn?
do you say of him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, 'You blaspheme,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God?'
37 Dersom jeg ikke gør min Faders Gerninger, saa tror mig ikke!
If I do not do the works of my Father, do not believe me.
38 Men dersom jeg gør dem, saa tror Gerningerne, om I end ikke ville tro mig, for at I kunne indse og erkende, at Faderen er i mig, og jeg i Faderen.‟
But if I do them, though you do not believe me, believe the works; that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father."
39 De søgte da atter at gribe ham; og han undslap af deres Haand.
Now they sought again to seize him, and he went out of their hand.
40 Og han drog atter bort hinsides Jordan til det Sted, hvor Johannes først døbte, og han blev der.
He went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John was baptizing at first, and there he stayed.
41 Og mange kom til ham, og de sagde: „Johannes gjorde vel intet Tegn; men alt, hvad Johannes sagde om denne, var sandt.‟
Many came to him. They said, "John indeed did no sign, but everything that John said about this man is true."
42 Og mange troede paa ham der.
And many believed in him there.
