Johannes 4
1 Da Herren nu erfarede, at Farisæerne havde hørt, at Jesus vandt flere Disciple og døbte flere end Johannes
Therefore when the Lord knew, the pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 (skønt Jesus ikke døbte selv, men hans Disciple):
(though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but his disciples, )
3 da forlod han Judæa og drog atter bort til Galilæa.
He left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 Men han maatte rejse igennem Samaria.
And as He must pass through the country of Samaria, He came to a Samaritan city called Sichar,
5 Han kommer da til en By i Samaria, som kaldes Sykar, nær ved det Stykke Land, som Jakob gav sin Søn Josef.
near the piece of ground which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Og der var Jakobs Brønd. Jesus satte sig da, træt af Rejsen, ned ved Brønden; det var ved den sjette Time.
And Jacob's well was there. Now Jesus was tired with his journey, and sat down at the well: and it was about the sixth hour of the day,
7 En samaritansk Kvinde kommer for at drage Vand op. Jesus siger til hende: „Giv mig noget at drikke!‟
when a woman of Samaria coming to draw water, Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
8 Hans Disciple vare nemlig gaaede bort til Byen for at købe Mad.
(For his disciples were gone away to the city to buy food.)
9 Da siger den samaritanske Kvinde til ham: „Hvorledes kan dog du, som er en Jøde, bede mig, som er en samaritansk Kvinde, om noget at drikke?‟ Thi Jøder holde ikke Samkvem med Samaritaner.
But the Samaritan saith unto Him, How is it that thou who art a Jew askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan? for the Jews have no friendly intercourse with the Samaritans.
10 Jesus svarede og sagde til hende: „Dersom du kendte Guds Gave, og hvem det er, som siger til dig: Giv mig noget at drikke, da bad du ham, og han gav dig levende Vand.‟
Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith unto thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldst have asked of Him, and He would have given thee living water.
11 Kvinden siger til ham: „Herre! du har jo intet at drage op med, og Brønden er dyb; hvorfra har du da det levende Vand?
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou the living water?
12 Mon du er større end vor Fader Jakob, som har givet os Brønden, og han har selv drukket deraf og hans Børn og hans Kvæg?‟
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13 Jesus svarede og sagde til hende: „Hver den, som drikker af dette Vand, skal tørste igen.
Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water, will thirst again;
15 Kvinden siger til ham: „Herre! giv mig dette Vand, for at jeg ikke skal tørste og ikke komme hid for at drage op.‟
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.
16 Jesus siger til hende: „Gaa bort, kald paa din Mand, og kom hid!‟
Jesus saith unto her, Go call thine husband, and come hither.
17 Kvinden svarede og sagde: „Jeg har ingen Mand.‟ Jesus siger til hende: „Med Rette sagde du: Jeg har ingen Mand.
The woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou hast said right, I have no husband:
18 Thi du har haft fem Mænd; og han, som du nu har, er ikke din Mand. Det har du sagt sandt.‟
for thou hast had five husbands; and he, whom thou now hast, is not thy husband: this thou hast said true.
19 Kvinden siger til ham: „Herre! jeg ser, at du er en Profet.
The woman saith unto Him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Vore Fædre have tilbedet paa dette Bjerg, og I sige, at i Jerusalem er Stedet, hvor man bør tilbede.‟
Our fathers worshipped on this mountain, and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesus siger til hende: „Tro mig, Kvinde, at den Time kommer, da det hverken skal være paa dette Bjerg eller i Jerusalem, at I tilbede Faderen.
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the time is coming, when ye shall worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22 I tilbede det, I ikke kende; vi tilbede det, vi kende; thi Frelsen kommer fra Jøderne.
Ye worship ye know not what; but we worship what we know: for salvation is from the Jews.
23 Men den Time kommer, ja, den er nu, da de sande Tilbedere skulle tilbede Faderen i Aand og Sandhed; thi det er saadanne Tilbedere, Faderen vil have.
But the time is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for the Father requireth such worshippers of Him.
24 Gud er Aand, og de, som tilbede ham, bør tilbede i Aand og Sandhed.‟
God is a spirit, and they that worship Him, must worship in spirit and truth.
25 Kvinden siger til ham: „Jeg ved, at Messias kommer (hvilket betyder Kristus); naar han kommer, skal han kundgøre os alle Ting.‟
Then saith the woman unto Him, I know that the Messiah, that is to say the Christ, is coming; and when He comes, He will tell us all things.
26 Jesus siger til hende: „Det er mig, jeg, som taler med dig.‟
Jesus saith unto her, I, who am talking to thee, am He.
27 Og i det samme kom hans Disciple, og de undrede sig over, at han talte med en Kvinde; dog sagde ingen: „Hvad søger du?‟ eller: „Hvorfor taler du med hende?‟
And upon this came his disciples and wondered that He talked with the woman: (though none of them said, What dost thou seek? or, Why dost thou talk with her?)
28 Da lod Kvinden sin Vandkrukke staa og gik bort til Byen og siger til Menneskene der:
therefore the woman left her water-pot, and went away into the city,
29 „Kommer og ser en Mand, som har sagt mig alt det, jeg har gjort; mon han skulde være Kristus?‟
and saith to the people, Come, see a man who hath told me all that ever I did; is not this the Christ?
30 De gik ud af Byen og kom gaaende til ham.
They therefore went out of the city, and came to Him.
31 Imidlertid bade Disciplene ham og sagde: „Rabbi, spis!‟
In the mean time his disciples addressed Him, saying, Master, eat.
32 Men han sagde til dem: „Jeg har Mad at spise, som I ikke kende.‟
But He said unto them, I have food to eat, which ye know not of.
33 Da sagde Disciplene til hverandre: „Mon nogen har bragt ham noget at spise?‟
Therefore the disciples said one to another, Hath any one brought Him aught to eat?
34 Jesus siger til dem: „Min Mad er, at jeg gør hans Villie, som udsendte mig, og fuldbyrder hans Gerning.
Jesus saith unto them, My food is to do the will of Him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 Sige I ikke: Der er endnu fire Maaneder, saa kommer Høsten? Se, jeg siger eder, opløfter eders Øjne og ser Markerne; de ere allerede hvide til Høsten.
Do not ye say, it is yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold, lift up your eyes, and see the fields, they are already white for harvest.
36 Den, som høster, faar Løn og samler Frugt til et evigt Liv, saa at de kunne glæde sig tilsammen, baade den, som saar, og den, som høster. (aiōnios g166)
And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth the fruit together unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together; (aiōnios g166)
37 Thi her er det Ord sandt: En saar, og en anden høster.
for herein the saying is verified, that one soweth, and another reapeth,
38 Jeg har udsendt eder at høste det, som I ikke have arbejdet paa; andre have arbejdet, og I ere gaaede ind i deres Arbejde.‟
in as much as I have sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured: others have laboured, and ye are entered into their labors.
39 Men mange af Samaritanerne fra den By troede paa ham paa Grund af Kvindens Ord, da hun vidnede: „Han har sagt mig alt det, jeg har gjort.‟
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on Him, because of what the woman said, testifying, He told me all that ever I did.
40 Da nu Samaritanerne kom til ham, bade de ham om at blive hos dem; og han blev der to Dage.
Therefore when the Samaritans came to Him, they desired Him to stay with them: and He staid there two days.
41 Og mange flere troede for hans Ords Skyld.
And many more believed on account of his own discourse:
42 Og til Kvinden sagde de: „Vi tro nu ikke længer for din Tales Skyld; thi vi have selv hørt, og vi vide, at denne er sandelig Verdens Frelser.‟
and said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of what thou hast spoken; for we ourselves have heard Him, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
43 Men efter de to Dage gik han derfra til Galilæa.
And after two days he departed thence, and went into Cana of Galilee.
44 Thi Jesus vidnede selv, at en Profet ikke bliver æret i sit eget Fædreland.
For Jesus himself had testified that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
45 Da han nu kom til Galilæa, toge Galilæerne imod ham, fordi de havde set alt det, som han gjorde i Jerusalem paa Højtiden; thi ogsaa de vare komne til Højtiden.
And when He was come into Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all that he did in Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went to the feast.
46 Han kom da atter til Kana i Galilæa, hvor han havde gjort Vandet til Vin. Og der var en kongelig Embedsmand, hvis Søn laa syg i Kapernaum.
Therefore Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where He had made the water wine.
47 Da denne hørte, at Jesus var kommen fra Judæa til Galilæa, gik han til ham og bad om, at han vilde komme ned og helbrede hans Søn; thi han var Døden nær.
And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum: who, when he heard that Jesus was come out of Judea into Galilee, went to Him, and intreated Him, that he would come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
48 Da sagde Jesus til ham: „Dersom I ikke se Tegn og Undergerninger, ville I ikke tro.‟
Jesus therefore said unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders ye will not believe.
49 Embedsmanden siger til ham: „Herre! kom, før mit Barn dør.‟
The nobleman saith unto Him, Lord, come down before my child die.
50 Jesus siger til ham: „Gaa bort, din Søn lever.‟ Og Manden troede det Ord, som Jesus sagde til ham, og gik bort.
Jesus saith unto him, Go, thy son is well. And the man believed what Jesus said unto him, and went his way.
51 Men allerede medens han var paa Hjemvejen, mødte hans Tjenere ham og meldte, at hans Barn levede.
And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, Thy son is well.
52 Da udspurgte han dem om den Time, i hvilken det var blevet bedre med ham; og de sagde til ham: „I Gaar ved den syvende Time forlod Feberen ham.‟
He inquired therefore of them the hour in which he grew better: and they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 Da skønnede Faderen, at det var sket i den Time, da Jesus sagde til ham: „Din Søn lever; ‟ og han troede selv og hele hans Hus.
So the father knew that it was in that same hour, in which Jesus said to him, Thy son is well. And he and his whole family believed.
54 Dette var det andet Tegn, som Jesus gjorde, da han var kommen fra Judæa til Galilæa.
This is the second miracle that Jesus wrought, upon coming out of Judea into Galilee.
