Johannes 16
1 „Dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I ikke skulle forarges.
These things have I spoken unto you, that ye may not be offended:
2 De skulle udelukke eder af Synagogerne, ja, den Tid skal komme, at hver den, som slaar eder ihjel, skal mene, at han viser Gud en Dyrkelse.
for they will excommunicate you: yea, the time is coming, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he offers an acceptable service to God.
3 Og dette skulle de gøre, fordi de hverken kende Faderen eller mig.
And these things will they do unto you; because they have not known the Father, nor me.
4 Men dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I, naar Timen kommer, skulle komme i Hu, at jeg har sagt eder det; men dette sagde jeg eder ikke fra Begyndelsen, fordi jeg var hos eder.
But I have told you these things, that when the time cometh, ye may remember that I told you of them. Though I did not tell you of them at the beginning, because I was with you.
5 Men nu gaar jeg hen til ham, som sendte mig, og ingen af eder spørger mig: Hvor gaar du hen?
But now I am going away to Him that sent me, and yet none of you asketh me, Whither art thou going? but because I have said these things to you,
6 Men fordi jeg har talt dette til eder, har Bedrøvelsen opfyldt eders Hjerte.
sorrow hath filled your heart.
7 Men jeg siger eder Sandheden: Det er eder gavnligt, at jeg gaar bort, thi gaar jeg ikke bort, kommer Talsmanden ikke til eder; men gaar jeg bort, saa vil jeg sende ham til eder.
Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I should go away; for if I go not away, the comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.
8 Og naar han kommer, skal han overbevise Verden om Synd og om Retfærdighed og om Dom.
And when He comes, He will convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement:
9 Om Synd, fordi de ikke tro paa mig;
of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 men om Retfærdighed, fordi jeg gaar til min Fader, og I se mig ikke længere;
of righteousness, because I am going to my Father and ye shall see me no more;
11 men om Dom, fordi denne Verdens Fyrste er dømt.
and of judgement, because the prince of this world is judged.
12 Jeg har endnu meget at sige eder; men I kunne ikke bære det nu.
I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13 Men naar han, Sandhedens Aand, kommer, skal han vejlede eder til hele Sandheden; thi han skal ikke tale af sig selv, men hvad som helst han hører, skal han tale, og de kommende Ting skal han forkynde eder.
But when the Spirit of truth is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He will not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that will He speak, and will shew you things to come.
14 Han skal herliggøre mig; thi han skal tage af mit og forkynde eder.
He shall glorify me, for He shall take of mine and shew it unto you.
15 Alt, hvad Faderen har, er mit; derfor sagde jeg, at han skal tage af mit og forkynde eder.
All that the Father hath are mine: therefore I said, that He shall take of mine and shew it unto you.
16 Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig længer, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig.”
A little while and ye shall not see me: and again a little while and ye shall see me, because I am going to the Father.
17 Da sagde nogle af hans Disciple til hverandre: „Hvad er dette, som han siger os: Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig, og: Jeg gaar hen til Faderen?”
Some of his disciples therefore said one to another, What is the meaning of this that He saith to us, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me, and---because I am going to the Father?
18 De sagde altsaa: „Hvad er dette, han siger: Om en liden Stund? Vi forstaa ikke, hvad han taler.”
they said therefore, What is this little while that He speaks of? we do not understand what He means.
19 Jesus vidste, at de vilde spørge ham, og han sagde til dem: „I spørge hverandre om dette, at jeg sagde: Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig.
Now Jesus knew that they wanted to ask Him, and therefore said unto them, Are ye enquiring among each other about this, that I said, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me?
20 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, I skulle græde og jamre, men Verden skal glæde sig; I skulle være bedrøvede, men eders Bedrøvelse skal blive til Glæde.
Verily I tell you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
21 Naar Kvinden føder, har hun Bedrøvelse, fordi hendes Time er kommen; men naar hun har født Barnet, kommer hun ikke mere sin Trængsel i Hu af Glæde over, at et Menneske er født til Verden.
A woman when she is in labor, hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she is delivered of the child, she thinks no more of the anguish, for joy, that a man is born into the world.
22 Ogsaa I have da vel nu Bedrøvelse, men jeg skal se eder igen, og eders Hjerte skal glædes, og ingen tager eders Glæde fra eder.
And ye therefore now have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy shall no one take from you.
23 Og paa den Dag skulle I ikke spørge mig om noget. Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, hvad som helst I bede Faderen om, skal han give eder i mit Navn.
And in that day ye shall ask me nothing: but I assure you, that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, He will give it you.
24 Hidindtil have I ikke bedet om noget i mit Navn; beder, og I skulle faa, for at eders Glæde maa blive fuldkommen.
Hitherto ye have asked for nothing in my name: ask and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
25 Dette har jeg talt til eder i Lignelser; der kommer en Time, da jeg ikke mere skal tale til eder i Lignelser, men frit ud forkynde eder om Faderen.
These things have I spoken to you in parables: but the time is coming when I shall no more speak to you in parables, but tell you with plainness concerning the Father.
26 Paa den Dag skulle I bede i mit Navn, og jeg siger ikke til eder, at jeg vil bede Faderen for eder;
In that day ye shall ask in my name; and I do not say that I will ask the Father on your behalf.
27 thi Faderen selv elsker eder, fordi I have elsket mig og troet, at jeg er udgaaet fra Gud.
For the Father himself loveth you; because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came from God: and I indeed came from the Father,
28 Jeg udgik fra Faderen og er kommen til Verden; jeg forlader Verden igen og gaar til Faderen.”
and am come into the world: but now I am leaving the world again, and am going to the Father.
29 Hans Disciple sige til ham: „Se, nu taler du frit ud og siger ingen Lignelse.
His disciples said unto Him, Now indeed Thou speakest plainly, and usest no parable.
30 Nu vide vi, at du ved alle Ting og ikke har nødig, at nogen spørger dig; desaarsag tro vi, at du er udgaaet fra Gud.”
Now we are convinced that Thou knowest all things, and hast no need that any one should ask Thee: by this we believe that Thou camest forth from God.
31 Jesus svarede dem: „Nu tro I!
Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
32 Se, den Time kommer, og den er kommen, da I skulle adspredes hver til sit og lade mig alene; dog, jeg er ikke alene, thi Faderen er med mig.
Behold, the time is coming, and is even now come, that ye shall be dispersed every one his own way, and shall leave me alone: but I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
33 Dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I skulle have Fred i mig. I Verden have I Trængsel; men værer frimodige, jeg har overvundet Verden.”
These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have trouble: but be of good courage, I have overcome the world.
