Johannes 8
1 [Men Jesus gik til Oliebjerget.
But Jesus went to the mount of Olives.
2 Og aarle om Morgenen kom han igen i Helligdommen, og hele Folket kom til ham; og han satte sig og lærte dem.
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him; and he sat down and taught them.
3 Men de skriftkloge og Farisæerne føre en Kvinde til ham, greben i Hor, og stille hende frem i Midten.
And the scribes and the Pharisees bring [to him] a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
4 Og de sige til ham: „Mester! denne Kvinde er greben i Hor paa fersk Gerning.
they say to him, Teacher, this woman has been taken in the very act, committing adultery.
5 Men Moses bød os i Loven, at saadanne skulle stenes; hvad siger nu du?‟
Now in the law Moses has commanded us to stone such; thou therefore, what sayest thou?
6 Men dette sagde de for at friste ham, for at de kunde have noget at anklage ham for. Men Jesus bøjede sig ned og skrev med Fingeren paa Jorden.
But this they said proving him, that they might have [something] to accuse him [of]. But Jesus, having stooped down, wrote with his finger on the ground.
7 Men da de bleve ved at spørge ham, rettede han sig op og sagde til dem: „Den iblandt eder, som er uden Synd, kaste først Stenen paa hende!‟
But when they continued asking him, he lifted himself up and said to them, Let him that is without sin among you first cast the stone at her.
8 Og han bøjede sig atter ned og skrev paa Jorden.
And again stooping down he wrote on the ground.
9 Men da de hørte det, gik de bort, den ene efter den anden, fra de ældste til de yngste, og Jesus blev alene tilbage med Kvinden, som stod der i Midten.
But they, having heard [that], went out one by one beginning from the elder ones until the last; and Jesus was left alone and the woman standing there.
10 Men da Jesus rettede sig op og ingen saa uden Kvinden, sagde han til hende: „Kvinde! hvor ere de henne? Var der ingen, som fordømte dig?‟
And Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee?
11 Men hun sagde: „Herre! ingen.‟ Da sagde Jesus: „Heller ikke jeg fordømmer dig; gaa bort, og synd ikke mere!‟]
And she said, No one, sir. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Jesus talte da atter til dem og sagde: „Jeg er Verdens Lys; den, som følger mig, skal ikke vandre i Mørket, men have Livets Lys.‟
Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 Da sagde Farisæerne til ham: „Du vidner om dig selv; dit Vidnesbyrd er ikke sandt.‟
The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true.
14 Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: „Om jeg end vidner om mig selv, er mit Vidnesbyrd sandt; thi jeg ved, hvorfra jeg kom, og hvor jeg gaar hen; men I vide ikke, hvorfra jeg kommer, og hvor jeg gaar hen.
Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is true, because I know whence I came and whither I go: but ye know not whence I come and whither I go.
15 I dømme efter Kødet; jeg dømmer ingen.
Ye judge according to the flesh, I judge no one.
16 Men om jeg ogsaa dømmer, er min Dom sand; thi det er ikke mig alene, men mig og Faderen, han, som sendte mig.
And if also I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who has sent me.
17 Men ogsaa i eders Lov er der skrevet, at to Menneskers Vidnesbyrd er sandt.
And in your law too it is written that the testimony of two men is true:
18 Jeg er den, der vidner om mig selv, og Faderen, som sendte mig, vidner om mig.‟
I am [one] who bear witness concerning myself, and the Father who has sent me bears witness concerning me.
19 Derfor sagde de til ham: „Hvor er din Fader?‟ Jesus svarede: „I kende hverken mig eller min Fader; dersom I kendte mig, kendte I ogsaa min Fader.‟
They said to him therefore, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me nor my Father. If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father.
20 Disse Ord talte Jesus ved Tempelblokken, da han lærte i Helligdommen; og ingen greb ham, fordi hans Time endnu ikke var kommen.
These words spoke he in the treasury, teaching in the temple; and no one took him, for his hour was not yet come.
21 Da sagde han atter til dem: „Jeg gaar bort, og I skulle lede efter mig, og I skulle dø i eders Synd; hvor jeg gaar hen, kunne I ikke komme.‟
He said therefore again to them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin; where I go ye cannot come.
22 Da sagde Jøderne: „Mon han vil slaa sig selv ihjel, siden han siger: Hvor jeg gaar hen, kunne I ikke komme?‟
The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he says, Where I go ye cannot come?
23 Og han sagde til dem: „I ere nedenfra, jeg er ovenfra; I ere af denne Verden, jeg er ikke af denne Verden.
And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above. Ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 Derfor har jeg sagt eder, at I skulle dø i eders Synder; thi dersom I ikke tro, at det er mig, skulle I dø i eders Synder.‟
I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins; for unless ye shall believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.
25 De sagde da til ham: „Hvem er du?‟ Og Jesus sagde til dem: „Just det, som jeg siger eder.
They said therefore to him, Who art thou? [And] Jesus said to them, Altogether that which I also say to you.
26 Jeg har meget at tale og dømme om eder; men den, som sendte mig, er sanddru, og hvad jeg har hørt af ham, det taler jeg til Verden.‟
I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but he that has sent me is true, and I, what I have heard from him, these things I say to the world.
27 De forstode ikke, at han talte til dem om Faderen.
They knew not that he spoke to them of the Father.
28 Da sagde Jesus til dem: „Naar I faa ophøjet Menneskesønnen, da skulle I kende, at det er mig, og at jeg gør intet af mig selv; men som min Fader har lært mig, saaledes taler jeg.
Jesus therefore said to them, When ye shall have lifted up the Son of man, then ye shall know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things.
29 Og han, som sendte mig, er med mig; han har ikke ladet mig alene, fordi jeg gør altid det, som er ham til Behag.‟
And he that has sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, because I do always the things that are pleasing to him.
30 Da han talte dette, troede mange paa ham.
As he spoke these things many believed on him.
31 Jesus sagde da til de Jøder, som vare komne til Tro paa ham: „Dersom I blive i mit Ord, ere I sandelig mine Disciple,
Jesus therefore said to the Jews who believed him, If ye abide in my word, ye are truly my disciples;
32 og I skulle erkende Sandheden, og Sandheden skal frigøre eder.‟
and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.
33 De svarede ham: „Vi ere Abrahams Sæd og have aldrig været nogens Trælle; hvorledes siger du da: I skulle vorde frie?‟
They answered him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never been under bondage to any one; how sayest thou, Ye shall become free?
34 Jesus svarede dem: „Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, hver den, som gør Synden, er Syndens Træl.
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Every one that practises sin is the bondman of sin.
Now the bondman abides not in the house for ever: the son abides for ever. (aiōn g165)
36 Dersom da Sønnen faar frigjort eder, skulle I være virkelig frie.
If therefore the Son shall set you free, ye shall be really free.
37 Jeg ved, at I ere Abrahams Sæd; men I søge at slaa mig ihjel, fordi min Tale ikke finder Rum hos eder.
I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word has no entrance in you.
38 Jeg taler det, som jeg har set hos min Fader; saa gøre ogsaa I det, som I have hørt af eders Fader.‟
I speak what I have seen with my Father, and ye then do what ye have seen with your father.
39 De svarede og sagde til ham: „Vor Fader er Abraham.‟ Jesus sagde til dem: „Dersom I vare Abrahams Børn, gjorde I Abrahams Gerninger.
They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham;
40 Men nu søge I at slaa mig ihjel, et Menneske, der har sagt eder Sandheden, som jeg har hørt af Gud; dette gjorde Abraham ikke.
but now ye seek to kill me, a man who has spoken the truth to you, which I have heard from God: this did not Abraham.
41 I gøre eders Faders Gerninger.‟ De sagde da til ham: „Vi ere ikke avlede i Hor; vi have een Fader, Gud.‟
Ye do the works of your father. They said [therefore] to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one father, God.
42 Jesus sagde til dem: „Dersom Gud var eders Fader, da elskede I mig; thi jeg er udgaaet og kommen fra Gud; thi jeg er heller ikke kommen af mig selv, men han har udsendt mig.
Jesus said to them, If God were your father ye would have loved me, for I came forth from God and am come [from him]; for neither am I come of myself, but he has sent me.
43 Hvorfor forstaa I ikke min Tale? fordi I ikke kunne høre mit Ord.
Why do ye not know my speech? Because ye cannot hear my word.
44 I ere af den Fader Djævelen, og eders Faders Begæringer ville I gøre. Han var en Manddraber fra Begyndelsen af, og han staar ikke i Sandheden; thi Sandhed er ikke i ham. Naar han taler Løgn, taler han af sit eget; thi han er en Løgner og Løgnens Fader.
Ye are of the devil, as [your] father, and ye desire to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks falsehood, he speaks of what is his own; for he is a liar and its father:
45 Men mig tro I ikke, fordi jeg siger Sandheden.
and because I speak the truth, ye do not believe me.
46 Hvem af eder kan overbevise mig om nogen Synd? Siger jeg Sandhed, hvorfor tro I mig da ikke?
Which of you convinces me of sin? If I speak truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 Den, som er af Gud, hører Guds Ord; derfor høre I ikke, fordi I ere ikke af Gud.‟
He that is of God hears the words of God: therefore ye hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
48 Jøderne svarede og sagde til ham: „Sige vi ikke med Rette, at du er en Samaritan og er besat?‟
The Jews answered and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan and hast a demon?
49 Jesus svarede: „Jeg er ikke besat, men jeg ærer min Fader, og I vanære mig.
Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.
50 Men jeg søger ikke min Ære; der er den, som søger den og dømmer.
But I do not seek my own glory: there is he that seeks and judges.
51 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, dersom nogen holder mit Ord, skal han i al Evighed ikke se Døden.‟ (aiōn g165)
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If any one shall keep my word, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
52 Jøderne sagde til ham: „Nu vide vi, at du er besat; Abraham døde og Profeterne, og du siger: Dersom nogen holder mit Ord, han skal i al Evighed ikke smage Døden. (aiōn g165)
The Jews therefore said to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham has died, and the prophets, and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he shall never taste death. (aiōn g165)
53 Mon du er større end vor Fader Abraham, som jo døde? ogsaa Profeterne døde; hvem gør du dig selv til?‟
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who has died? and the prophets have died: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Jesus svarede: „Dersom jeg ærer mig selv, er min Ære intet; det er min Fader, som ærer mig, han, om hvem I sige, at han er eders Gud.
Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who glorifies me, [of] whom ye say, He is our God.
55 Og I have ikke kendt ham, men jeg kender ham. Og dersom jeg siger: „Jeg kender ham ikke, ‟ da bliver jeg en Løgner ligesom I; men jeg kender ham og holder hans Ord.
And ye know him not; but I know him; and if I said, I know him not, I should be like you, a liar. But I know him, and I keep his word.
56 Abraham, eders Fader, frydede sig til at se min Dag, og han saa den og glædede sig.‟
Your father Abraham exulted in that he should see my day, and he saw and rejoiced.
57 Da sagde Jøderne til ham: „Du er endnu ikke halvtredsindstyve Aar gammel, og du har set Abraham?‟
The Jews therefore said to him, Thou hast not yet fifty years, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus sagde til dem: „Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, førend Abraham blev til, har jeg været.‟
Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Saa toge de Stene for at kaste paa ham; men Jesus skjulte sig og gik ud af Helligdommen.
They took up therefore stones that they might cast [them] at him; but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple, [going through the midst of them, and thus passed on.]
