Johannes 5
1 Derefter var det Jødernes Højtid, og Jesus gik op til Jerusalem.
After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Men der er i Jerusalem ved Faareporten en Dam, som paa Hebraisk kaldes Bethesda, og den har fem Søjlegange.
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
3 I dem laa der en Mængde syge, blinde, lamme, visne, [som ventede paa, at Vandet skulde røres.
In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
4 Thi paa visse Tider for en Engel ned i Dammen og oprørte Vandet. Den, som da, efter at Vandet var blevet oprørt, steg først ned, blev rask, hvilken Sygdom han end led af.]
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
5 Men der var en Mand, som havde været syg i otte og tredive Aar.
And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 Da Jesus saa ham ligge der og vidste, at han allerede havde ligget i lang Tid, sagde han til ham: „Vil du blive rask?‟
When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he says unto him, Will you be made whole?
7 Den syge svarede ham: „Herre! jeg har ingen, som kan bringe mig ned i Dammen, naar Vandet bliver oprørt; men naar jeg kommer, stiger en anden ned før mig.‟
The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steps down before me.
8 Jesus siger til ham: „Staa op, tag din Seng og gaa!‟
Jesus says unto him, Rise, take up your bed, and walk.
9 Og straks blev Manden rask, og han tog sin Seng og gik. Men det var Sabbat paa den Dag;
And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
10 derfor sagde Jøderne til ham, som var bleven helbredet: „Det er Sabbat; og det er dig ikke tilladt at bære Sengen.‟
The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for you to carry your bed.
11 Han svarede dem: „Den, som gjorde mig rask, han sagde til mig: Tag din Seng og gaa!‟
He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up your bed, and walk.
12 Da spurgte de ham: „Hvem er det Menneske, som sagde til dig: Tag din Seng og gaa?‟
Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto you, Take up your bed, and walk?
13 Men han, som var bleven helbredet, vidste ikke, hvem det var; thi Jesus havde unddraget sig, da der var mange Mennesker paa Stedet.
And he that was healed know not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
14 Derefter finder Jesus ham i Helligdommen, og han sagde til ham: „Se, du er bleven rask; synd ikke mere, for at ikke noget værre skal times dig!‟
Afterward Jesus finds him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, you are made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto you.
15 Manden gik bort og sagde til Jøderne, at det var Jesus, som havde gjort ham rask.
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.
16 Og derfor forfulgte Jøderne Jesus, fordi han havde gjort dette paa en Sabbat.
And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
17 Men Jesus svarede dem: „Min Fader arbejder indtil nu; ogsaa jeg arbejder.‟
But Jesus answered them, My Father works until now, and I work.
18 Derfor tragtede da Jøderne end mere efter at slaa ham ihjel, fordi han ikke alene brød Sabbaten, men ogsaa kaldte Gud sin egen Fader og gjorde sig selv Gud lig.
Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
19 Saa svarede Jesus og sagde til dem: „Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, Sønnen kan slet intet gøre af sig selv, uden hvad han ser Faderen gøre; thi hvad han gør, det gør ogsaa Sønnen ligesaa.
Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do: for what things whatsoever he does, these also does the Son likewise.
20 Thi Faderen elsker Sønnen og viser ham alt det, han selv gør, og han skal vise ham større Gerninger end disse, for at I skulle undre eder.
For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that himself does: and he will show him greater works than these, that all of you may marvel.
21 Thi ligesom Faderen oprejser de døde og gør levende, saaledes gør ogsaa Sønnen levende, hvem han vil.
For as the Father raises up the dead, and replenishes life to them; even so the Son gives life to whom he will.
22 Thi heller ikke dømmer Faderen nogen, men har givet Sønnen hele Dommen,
For the Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 for at alle skulle ære Sønnen, ligesom de ære Faderen. Den, som ikke ærer Sønnen, ærer ikke Faderen, som udsendte ham.
That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honors not the Son honors not the Father which has sent him.
24 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, den, som hører mit Ord og tror den, som sendte mig, har et evigt Liv og kommer ikke til Dom, men er gaaet over fra Døden til Livet. (aiōnios g166)
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that hears my word, (logos) and believes on him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, den Time kommer, ja den er nu, da de døde skulle høre Guds Søns Røst, og de, som høre den, skulle leve.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
26 Thi ligesom Faderen har Liv i sig selv, saaledes har han ogsaa givet Sønnen at have Liv i sig selv.
For as the Father has life in himself; so has he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27 Og han har givet ham Magt til at holde Dom, efterdi han er Menneskesøn.
And has given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
28 Undrer eder ikke herover; thi den Time kommer, paa hvilken alle de, som ere i Gravene, skulle høre hans Røst,
Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 og de skulle gaa frem, de, som have gjort det gode, til Livets Opstandelse, men de, som have gjort det onde, til Dommens Opstandelse.
And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
30 Jeg kan slet intet gøre af mig selv; saaledes som jeg hører, dømmer jeg, og min Dom er retfærdig; thi jeg søger ikke min Villie, men hans Villie, som sendte mig.
I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which has sent me.
31 Dersom jeg vidner om mig selv, er mit Vidnesbyrd ikke sandt.
If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
32 Det er en anden, som vidner om mig, og jeg ved, at det Vidnesbyrd er sandt, som han vidner om mig.
There is another that bears witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesses of me is true.
33 I have sendt Bud til Johannes, og han har vidnet for Sandheden.
All of you sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
34 Dog, jeg henter ikke Vidnesbyrdet fra et Menneske; men dette siger jeg, for at I skulle frelses.
But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that all of you might be saved.
35 Han var det brændende og skinnende Lys, og I have til en Tid villet fryde eder ved hans Lys.
He was a burning and a shining light: and all of you were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
36 Men det Vidnesbyrd, som jeg har, er større end Johannes's; thi de Gerninger, som Faderen har givet mig at fuldbyrde, selve de Gerninger, som jeg gør, vidne om mig, at Faderen har udsendt mig.
But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father has given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father has sent me.
37 Og Faderen, som sendte mig, han har vidnet om mig. I have aldrig hverken hørt hans Røst eller set hans Skikkelse,
And the Father himself, which has sent me, has borne witness of me. All of you have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
38 og hans Ord have I ikke blivende i eder; thi den, som han udsendte, ham tro I ikke.
And all of you have not his word (logos) abiding in you: for whom he has sent, him all of you believe not.
39 I ransage Skrifterne, fordi I mene i dem at have evigt Liv; og det er dem, som vidne om mig. (aiōnios g166)
Search the scriptures; for in them all of you think all of you have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. (aiōnios g166)
40 Og I ville ikke komme til mig, for at I kunne have Liv.
And all of you will not come to me, that all of you might have life.
41 Jeg tager ikke Ære af Mennesker;
I receive not honour from men.
42 men jeg kender eder, at I have ikke Guds Kærlighed i eder.
But I know you, that all of you have not the love (agape) of God in you.
43 Jeg er kommen i min Faders Navn, og I modtage mig ikke; dersom en anden kommer i sit eget Navn, ham ville I modtage.
I am come in my Father's name, and all of you receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him all of you will receive.
44 Hvorledes kunne I tro, I, som tage Ære af hverandre, og den Ære, som er fra den eneste Gud, søge I ikke?
How can all of you believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that comes from God only?
45 Tænker ikke, at jeg vil anklage eder for Faderen; der er en, som anklager eder, Moses, til hvem I have sat eders Haab.
Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuses you, even Moses, in whom all of you trust.
46 Thi dersom I troede Moses, troede I mig; thi han har skrevet om mig.
For had all of you believed Moses, all of you would have believed me; for he wrote of me.
47 Men tro I ikke hans Skrifter, hvorledes skulle I da tro mine Ord?‟
But if all of you believe not his writings, how shall all of you believe my words? (rhema)
