Johannes 19
1 Nu tog da Pilatus Jesus og lod ham hudstryge.
Then Pilate took Jesus [inside and had soldiers] (scourge Jesus/strike Jesus with a whip that had pieces of metal or bone fastened to it).
2 Og Stridsmændene flettede en Krone af Torne og satte den paa hans Hoved og kastede en Purpurkappe om ham, og de gik hen til ham og sagde:
The soldiers also took [some branches with] thorns and wove them to make [something like] a crown. Then they put it on his head. They also put a purple robe on him. [They did these things to ridicule him by pretending that he was a king].
3 „Hil være dig, du Jødernes Konge!‟ og de sloge ham i Ansigtet.
Then they kept coming to him and saying, “Hooray for the King of the Jews [IRO]!” and slapping him [on his face].
4 Og Pilatus gik atter ud, og han siger til dem: „Se, jeg fører ham ud til eder, for at I skulle vide, at jeg finder ingen Skyld hos ham.‟
Once more Pilate came outside and said to the crowd, “Look! I am bringing him out to you so that you may know that I do not find that he has done anything for which we should punish him [any more].”
5 Da gik Jesus ud med Tornekronen og Purpurkappen paa. Og han siger til dem: „Se, hvilket Menneske!‟
When Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Look at this [wretched] man!”
6 Da nu Ypperstepræsterne og Svendene saa ham, raabte de og sagde: „Korsfæst! korsfæst!‟ Pilatus siger til dem: „Tager I ham og korsfæster ham; thi jeg finder ikke Skyld hos ham.‟
When the chief priests and Temple guards saw him, they shouted, “Command your soldiers to kill him by nailing him to a cross! Crucify him!” Pilate, [knowing that they could not legally do it themselves], said to them, “You yourselves take him and nail him to a cross! As for me, I do not find that he has done anything for which we should punish him.”
7 Jøderne svarede ham: „Vi have en Lov, og efter denne Lov er han skyldig at dø, fordi han har gjort sig selv til Guds Søn.‟
The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied, “[Our ancestor Moses gave us] the law that says we must kill anyone [who claims to be God]. This man claims that he is (the Son of/the man who is also) God, [so you must have him killed] {[command your soldiers to kill him]}.”
8 Da Pilatus nu hørte dette Ord, blev han endnu mere bange.
When Pilate heard that, he was more afraid [of what would happen to himself if he commanded the soldiers to kill Jesus].
9 Og han gik ind igen i Borgen og siger til Jesus: „Hvorfra er du?‟ Men Jesus gav ham intet Svar.
So he [took Jesus] back inside the headquarters. He said to Jesus, “Where do you [really] come from?” But Jesus did not answer him.
10 Pilatus siger da til ham: „Taler du ikke til mig? Ved du ikke, at jeg har Magt til at løslade dig, og at jeg har Magt til at korsfæste dig?‟
So Pilate said to him, “Are you refusing to answer me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you, and I [also] have authority to [have] you crucified {command my soldiers to crucify you}?”
11 Jesus svarede: „Du havde aldeles ingen Magt over mig, dersom den ikke var given dig ovenfra; derfor har den, som overgav mig til dig, større Synd.‟
Jesus replied, “The only authority you have is what has been given to you by God [MTY] {what God [MTY] has given you}. The [high priest] put me into your hands. [He has done to me what he wanted to do, and you do not really want to do it]. So he is guilty of committing a greater sin than you are.”
12 Derefter forsøgte Pilatus at løslade ham. Men Jøderne raabte og sagde: „Dersom du løslader denne, er du ikke Kejserens Ven. Hver den, som gør sig selv til Konge, sætter sig op imod Kejseren.‟
Because of that, Pilate kept trying to release Jesus. But the Jewish [leaders][SYN], [threatening to report to the Emperor that Pilate was not going to punish a man who claimed he was a king], continued to shout, “Anyone who claims that he is a king is opposing the Emperor! So if you release this man, [we will make sure that] the Emperor [learns about it, and then he will not consider you as] his friend!”
13 Da Pilatus hørte disse Ord, førte han Jesus ud og satte sig paa Dommersædet, paa det Sted, som kaldes Stenlagt, men paa Hebraisk Gabbatha;
When Pilate heard that, he brought Jesus out again. He sat down at the place where he made decisions [about punishing people]. The place was called {People called it} The Stone Pavement. In the Aramaic language its name was Gabbatha.
14 men det var Beredelsens Dag i Paasken, ved den sjette Time. Og han siger til Jøderne: „Se, eders Konge!‟
It was almost noontime, on the day that they prepared [things for] the Passover [celebration] (OR, the day before the [Sabbath during] the Passover [celebration]). Pilate said to the Jewish [leaders] [SYN], [ridiculing them], “Look at your king!”
15 De raabte nu: „Bort, bort med ham! korsfæst ham!‟ Pilatus siger til dem: „Skal jeg korsfæste eders Konge?‟ Ypperstepræsterne svarede: „Vi have ingen Konge uden Kejseren.‟
They shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! [Have] him crucified {Command your soldiers to nail him to a cross}!” Pilate said to them, “[He is] your king! Do you really want me to [tell my soldiers to] nail him to a cross?” The chief priests replied, “The Emperor is our king! We do not have any other king!”
16 Saa overgav han ham da til dem til at korsfæstes. De toge nu Jesus;
Then [at last] Pilate agreed to do [what they wanted, and he told the soldiers] to crucify Jesus. John 19:16b-24 Then the soldiers took Jesus away.
17 og han bar selv sit Kors og gik ud til det saakaldte „Hovedskalsted‟, som hedder paa Hebraisk Golgatha,
[As they left], he himself was carrying the cross [on which they were going to nail him]. They went to a place called The Place of a Skull. In the Aramaic language it is called {they call it} Golgotha.
18 hvor de korsfæstede ham og to andre med ham, en paa hver Side, men Jesus midt imellem.
There, [after removing most of his clothes], the soldiers nailed him to the cross. They also [nailed] two other [criminals to crosses]. There was one on each side, and Jesus was in the middle.
19 Men Pilatus havde ogsaa skrevet en Overskrift og sat den paa Korset. Men der var skrevet: „Jesus af Nazareth, Jødernes Konge.‟
Pilate also [had them] write [on a board] a notice [that stated why they were executing him], and fasten it to the cross. But all they wrote was ‘Jesus from Nazareth, the King of the Jews’.
20 Denne Overskrift læste da mange af Jøderne; thi det Sted, hvor Jesus blev korsfæstet, var nær ved Staden; og den var skreven paa Hebraisk, Latin og Græsk.
Many Jews were [able to] read this sign, because the place where Jesus was nailed {where they nailed Jesus} to the cross was very close to [Jerusalem, where many people had come for the celebration], and because it was written {they wrote it} in three languages: Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
21 Da sagde Jødernes Ypperstepræster til Pilatus: „Skriv ikke: Jødernes Konge, men: Han sagde: Jeg er Jødernes Konge.‟
So the Jewish priests went back to Pilate and protested, saying to him, “Change what they have written from ‘The King of the Jews’ to ‘This man said that he is the King of the Jews’!”
22 Pilatus svarede: „Hvad jeg skrev, det skrev jeg.‟
Pilate replied, “What I [told them to] write is what they have written, [and I] will not [change it].”
23 Da nu Stridsmændene havde korsfæstet Jesus, toge de hans Klæder og gjorde fire Dele, een Del for hver Stridsmand, og ligeledes Kjortelen; men Kjortelen var usyet, vævet fra øverst helt igennem.
After the soldiers nailed Jesus to the cross, they took his clothes and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier. But they kept his cloak [separate]. This cloak was without seam, woven [from top to bottom], one piece of cloth.
24 Da sagde de til hverandre: „Lader os ikke sønderskære den, men kaste Lod om den, hvis den skal være; ‟ for at Skriften skulde opfyldes, som siger: „De delte mine Klæder imellem sig og kastede Lod om mit Klædebon.‟ Dette gjorde da Stridsmændene.
So they said to each other, “Let’s not tear it. Instead, let’s [decide] ([by] throwing lots/[by] gambling) who will get it.” So that is what the soldiers did. As a result, these words were fulfilled {they fulfilled these words} that [the Psalmist had written] in Scripture, They divided [most of] my clothes among themselves. They cast lots for [one piece of] my clothing.
25 Men ved Jesu Kors stod hans Moder og hans Moders Søster, Maria, Klopas's Hustru, og Maria Magdalene.
Near the cross where [they had nailed] Jesus stood his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and [another] Mary, the woman from Magdala [village].
26 Da Jesus nu saa sin Moder og den Discipel, han elskede, staa hos, siger han til sin Moder: „Kvinde! se, det er din Søn.‟
Jesus saw his mother standing there. He also saw me standing nearby. Then he said to his mother, “This man [will now be like] your son.”
27 Derefter siger han til Discipelen: „Se, det er din Moder.‟ Og fra den Time tog Discipelen hende hjem til sit.
And he said to me, “[Treat this] woman as [MET] your mother.” So from that time I took her to my home [and took care of her].
28 Derefter, da Jesus vidste, at alting nu var fuldbragt, for at Skriften skulde opfyldes, siger han: „Jeg tørster.‟
Later, Jesus knew that everything [that God sent him to do] had now been completed {that he had now completed everything [that God sent him to do]}, [but he knew that something else that was written in] the Scriptures [had] to be fulfilled {[that he had] to fulfill [something else that they had written in] the Scriptures}. So he said, “I am thirsty!”
29 Der stod et Kar fuldt af Eddike; de satte da en Svamp fuld af Eddike paa en Isopstængel og holdt den til hans Mund.
There was a jar of sour wine there. So [someone took] a stalk of [a plant called] hyssop and [fastened] a sponge [to it. Then] he dipped [the sponge into the wine and] lifted it up to Jesus’ lips.
30 Da nu Jesus havde taget Eddiken, sagde han: „Det er fuldbragt; ‟ og han bøjede Hovedet og opgav Aanden.
When Jesus tasted the sour wine, he shouted, “[I] have finished [all that I came to do]!” Then he bowed his head and (died/handed over his spirit [to God]).
31 Da det nu var Beredelsesdag, bade Jøderne Pilatus om, at Benene maatte blive knuste og Legemerne nedtagne, for at de ikke skulde blive paa Korset Sabbaten over; thi denne Sabbatsdag var stor.
That was the day that they prepared [everything for their] ([Sabbath/day of rest]). The next day was a special day of rest, [because it was the day of rest during the Passover celebration]. The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] did not want the bodies [of the three men] to remain on the cross during their (Sabbath/day of rest) [because leaving bodies hanging overnight would be contrary to their Jewish laws]. So they went to Pilate and asked him [to command that] the legs [of the three men on the crosses] be broken {the [soldiers] to break the legs [of the three men on the crosses]}, [so that they would die quickly]. Then their [bodies] could be taken down [and buried] {someone could take down their bodies [and bury them]}.
32 Da kom Stridsmændene og knuste Benene paa den første og paa den anden, som vare korsfæstede med ham.
So, [after Pilate agreed], the soldiers went and broke the legs of the first man whom they had nailed on a cross near Jesus. Then they broke the legs of the second man.
33 Men da de kom til Jesus og saa, at han allerede var død, knuste de ikke hans Ben.
But when they came to Jesus, they saw that he was dead already. So they did not break his legs.
34 Men en af Stridsmændene stak ham i Siden med et Spyd, og straks flød der Blod og Vand ud.
Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear [to make sure that Jesus was dead]. Immediately blood [clots] and [other] liquid flowed out, [which showed that Jesus was really dead].
35 Og den, der har set det, har vidnet det, og hans Vidnesbyrd er sandt, og han ved, at han siger sandt, for at ogsaa I skulle tro.
I, [John], saw this myself, and what I am writing is true. I [know that] I am telling the truth, and I am saying this in order that you may believe [in] (OR, [my testimony about]) [Jesus].
36 Thi disse Ting skete, for at Skriften skulde opfyldes: „Intet Ben skal sønderbrydes derpaa.‟
These things happened in order that these words would be fulfilled {to fulfill these words} [that are written in] Scripture: “Not one of his bones will be broken {No one will break any of his bones}.”
37 Og atter et andet Skriftord siger: „De skulle se hen til ham, hvem de have gennemstunget.‟
And [they fulfilled] another Scripture passage [that has these words]: ‘They will look on the one whom they have pierced’.
38 Men Josef fra Arimathæa, som var en Jesu Discipel, dog lønligt, af Frygt for Jøderne, bad derefter Pilatus om, at han maatte tage Jesu Legeme, og Pilatus tillod det. Da kom han og tog Jesu Legeme.
Later, Joseph, from Arimathea [town, went to Pilate and] asked Pilate [to allow him] to take Jesus’ body [down from the cross]. Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but he did not tell anyone that, because he was afraid of the [other] Jewish [leaders] [SYN]. Pilate permitted him to take Jesus’ body, so he went, along [with others], and they took Jesus’ body [down from the cross].
39 Men ogsaa Nikodemus, som første Gang var kommen til Jesus om Natten, kom og bragte en Blanding af Myrra og Aloe, omtrent hundrede Pund.
Nicodemus was one of them. He was the man who previously went to visit Jesus at night. Nicodemus bought an [expensive] mixture of myrrh and aloe [spices to put on the body]. It weighed about (75 pounds/35 kilograms).
40 De toge da Jesu Legeme og bandt det i Linklæder med de vellugtende Urter, som Jødernes Skik er at fly Lig til Jorde.
They took the body of Jesus and wrapped strips of linen cloth around it, putting the spices in with the strips of cloth. They did this according to the Jewish customs [about burying bodies in tombs].
41 Men der var paa det Sted, hvor han blev korsfæstet, en Have, og i Haven en ny Grav, hvori endnu aldrig nogen var lagt.
Close to the place where Jesus was crucified {where they nailed Jesus to the cross} there was a grove [of trees], and [at the edge of] that grove was a new burial cave. Nobody had ever been put in that cave [previously].
42 Der lagde de da Jesus, for Jødernes Beredelsesdags Skyld, efterdi Graven var nær.
The Jewish day of rest would start [at sunset, and they had to finish burying his body before then]. So, since that cave was nearby, they laid Jesus’ body there [and rolled a huge stone in front of the entrance].
