Markus 4
1 Og han begyndte atter at lære ved Søen. Og en meget stor Skare samles om ham, saa at han maatte gaa om Bord og sætte sig i et Skib paa Søen; og hele Skaren var paa Land ved Søen.
And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.
2 Og han lærte dem meget i Lignelser og sagde til dem i sin Undervisning:
And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,
3 „Hører til: Se, en Sædemand gik ud at saa.
Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:
4 Og det skete, idet han saaede, at noget faldt ved Vejen, og Fuglene kom og aade det op.
And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.
5 Og noget faldt paa Stengrund, hvor det ikke havde megen Jord; og det voksede straks op, fordi det ikke havde dyb Jord.
And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
6 Og da Solen kom op, blev det svedet af, og fordi det ikke havde Rod, visnede det.
But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 Og noget faldt iblandt Torne, og Tornene voksede op og kvalte det, og det bar ikke Frugt.
And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 Og noget faldt i god Jord og bar Frugt, som skød frem og voksede, og det bar tredive og tresindstyve og hundrede Fold.‟
And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.
9 Og han sagde: „Den, som har Øren at høre med, han høre!‟
And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 Og da han blev ene, spurgte de, som vare om ham, tillige med de tolv ham om Lignelserne.
And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.
11 Og han sagde til dem: „Eder er Guds Riges Hemmelighed givet; men dem, som ere udenfor, meddeles alt ved Lignelser,
And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all [these] things are done in parables:
12 for at de, skønt seende, skulle se og ikke indse og, skønt hørende, skulle høre og ikke forstaa, for at de ikke skulle omvende sig og faa Forladelse.‟
That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and [their] sins should be forgiven them.
13 Og han siger til dem: „Fatte I ikke denne Lignelse? Hvorledes ville I da forstaa alle de andre Lignelser?
And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?
14 Sædemanden saar Ordet.
The sower soweth the word.
15 Men de ved Vejen, det er dem, hvor Ordet bliver saaet, og naar de høre det, kommer straks Satan og borttager Ordet, som er saaet i dem.
And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.
16 Og ligeledes de, som blive saaede paa Stengrunden, det er dem, som, naar de høre Ordet, straks modtage det med Glæde;
And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;
17 og de have ikke Rod i sig, men holde kun ud til en Tid; derefter, naar der kommer Trængsel eller Forfølgelse for Ordets Skyld, forarges de straks.
And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.
18 Og andre ere de, som blive saaede blandt Torne; det er dem, som have hørt Ordet,
And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
19 og denne Verdens Bekymringer og Rigdommens Forførelse og Begæringerne efter de andre Ting komme ind og kvæle Ordet, saa det bliver uden Frugt. (aiōn g165)
And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 Og de, der bleve saaede i god Jord, det er dem, som høre Ordet og modtage det og bære Frugt, tredive og tresindstyve og hundrede Fold.‟
And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive [it], and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.
21 Og han sagde til dem: „Mon Lyset kommer ind for at sættes under Skæppen eller under Bænken? Mon ikke for at sættes paa Lysestagen?
And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?
22 Thi ikke er noget skjult uden for at aabenbares; ej heller er det blevet lønligt uden for at komme for Lyset.
For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.
23 Dersom nogen har Øren at høre med, han høre!‟
If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
24 Og han sagde til dem: „Agter paa, hvad I høre! Med hvad Maal I maale, skal der tilmaales eder, og der skal gives eder end mere.
And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.
25 Thi den, som har, ham skal der gives; og den, som ikke har, fra ham skal endog det tages, som han har.‟
For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.
26 Og han sagde: „Med Guds Rige er det saaledes, som naar en Mand har lagt Sæden i Jorden
And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;
27 og sover og staar op Nat og Dag, og Sæden spirer og bliver høj, han ved ej selv hvorledes.
And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.
28 Af sig selv bærer Jorden Frugt, først Straa, derefter Aks, derefter fuld Kerne i Akset;
For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
29 men naar Frugten er tjenlig, sender han straks Seglen ud; thi Høsten er for Haanden.‟
But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
30 Og han sagde: „Hvormed skulle vi ligne Guds Rige, eller under hvilken Lignelse skulle vi fremstille det?
And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?
31 Det er som et Sennepskorn, som, naar det saas i Jorden, er mindre end alt andet Frø paa Jorden,
[It is] like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:
32 og naar det er saaet, vokser det op og bliver større end alle Urterne og skyder store Grene, saa at Himmelens Fugle kunne bygge Rede i dets Skygge.‟
But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
33 Og i mange saadanne Lignelser talte han Ordet til dem, efter som de kunde fatte det.
And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear [it].
34 Men uden Lignelse talte han ikke til dem; men i Enrum udlagde han det alt sammen for sine Disciple.
But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.
35 Og paa den Dag, da det var blevet Aften, siger han til dem: „Lader os fare over til hin Side!‟
And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.
36 Og de forlade Folkeskaren og tage ham med, som han sad i Skibet; men der var ogsaa andre Skibe med ham.
And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
37 Og der kommer en stærk Stormvind, og Bølgerne sloge ind i Skibet, saa at Skibet allerede var ved at fyldes.
And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.
38 Og han var i Bagstavnen og sov paa en Hovedpude, og de vække ham og sige til ham: „Mester! bryder du dig ikke om, at vi forgaa?‟
And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
39 Og han stod op og truede Vinden og sagde til Søen: „Ti, vær stille!‟ og Vinden lagde sig, og det blev ganske blikstille.
And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 Og han sagde til dem: „Hvorfor ere I saa bange? Hvorfor have I ikke Tro?‟
And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
41 Og de frygtede saare og sagde til hverandre: „Hvem er dog denne, siden baade Vinden og Søen ere ham lydige?‟
And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
