Markus 9
1 Og han sagde til dem: „Sandelig, siger jeg eder, der er nogle af dem, som staa her, der ingenlunde skulle smage Døden, førend de se Guds Rige være kommet med Kraft.‟
He went on to say, "In solemn truth I tell you that some of those who are standing here will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Kingdom of God already come in power."
2 Og seks Dage derefter tager Jesus Peter og Jakob og Johannes med sig og fører dem alene afsides op paa et højt Bjerg, og han blev forvandlet for deres Øjne.
Six days later, Jesus took with Him Peter, James, and John, and brought them alone, apart from the rest, up a high mountain; and in their presence His appearance underwent a change.
3 Og hans Klæder bleve skinnende, meget hvide, saa at ingen Blegemand paa Jorden kan gøre Klæder saa hvide.
His garments also became dazzling with brilliant whiteness--such whiteness as no bleaching on earth could give.
4 Og Elias tillige med Moses viste sig for dem, og de samtalede med Jesus.
Moreover there appeared to them Elijah accompanied by Moses; and the two were conversing with Jesus,
5 Og Peter tog til Orde og siger til Jesus: „Rabbi! det er godt, at vi ere her, og lader os gøre tre Hytter, dig en og Moses en og Elias en.‟
when Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, we are thankful to you that we are here. Let us put up three tents--one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
6 Thi han vidste ikke, hvad han skulde sige; thi de vare blevne helt forfærdede.
For he knew not what to say: they were filled with such awe.
7 Og der kom en Sky, som overskyggede dem; og en Røst kom fra Skyen: „Denne er min Søn, den elskede, hører ham!‟
Then there came a cloud spreading over them, and a voice issued from the cloud, "This is my Son, dearly loved: listen to Him."
8 Og pludseligt, da de saa sig om, saa de ingen mere uden Jesus alene hos dem.
Instantly they looked round, and now they could no longer see any one, but themselves and Jesus.
9 Og da de gik ned fra Bjerget, bød han dem, at de ikke maatte fortælle nogen, hvad de havde set, førend Menneskesønnen var opstanden fra de døde.
As they were coming down from the mountain, He very strictly forbad them to tell any one what they had seen "until after the Son of Man has risen from among the dead."
10 Og de fastholdt dette Ord hos sig selv og spurgte hverandre, hvad det er at opstaa fra de døde.
So they kept the matter to themselves, although frequently asking one another what was meant by the rising from the dead.
11 Og de spurgte ham og sagde: „De skriftkloge sige jo, at Elias bør først komme?‟
They also asked Him, "How is it that the Scribes say that Elijah must first come?"
12 Men han sagde til dem: „Elias kommer først og genopretter alting; og hvorledes er der skrevet om Menneskesønnen? At han skal lide meget og foragtes.
"Elijah," He replied, "does indeed come first and reforms everything; but how is it that it is written of the Son of Man that He will endure much suffering and be held in contempt?
13 Men jeg siger eder, at baade er Elias kommen, og de gjorde ved ham alt, hvad de vilde, efter som der er skrevet om ham.‟
Yet I tell you that not only has Elijah come, but they have also done to him whatever they chose, as the Scriptures say about him."
14 Og da de kom til Disciplene, saa de en stor Skare omkring dem og skriftkloge, som tvistedes med dem.
As they came to rejoin the disciples, they saw an immense crowd surrounding them and a party of Scribes disputing with them.
15 Og straks studsede hele Skaren, da de saa ham, og de løb hen og hilsede ham.
Immediately the whole multitude on beholding Him were astonished and awe-struck, and yet they ran forward and greeted Him.
16 Og han spurgte dem: „Hvorom tvistes I med dem?‟
"What is the subject you are discussing?" He asked them.
17 Og en af Skaren svarede ham: „Mester! jeg har bragt min Søn til dig; han har en maalløs Aand.
"Rabbi," answered one of the crowd, "I have brought you my son. He has a dumb spirit in him;
18 Og hvor som helst den griber ham, slider den i ham, og han fraader og skærer Tænder, og han visner hen; og jeg har sagt til dine Disciple, at de skulde uddrive den, og de kunde ikke.‟
and wherever it comes upon him, it dashes him to the ground, and he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth, and he is pining away. I begged your disciples to expel it, but they had not the power."
19 Men han svarede dem og sagde: „O du vantro Slægt! hvor længe skal jeg være hos eder, hvor længe skal jeg taale eder? Bringer ham til mig!‟
"O unbelieving generation!" replied Jesus; "how long must I be with you? how long must I have patience with you? Bring the boy to me."
20 Og de ledte ham frem til ham; og da han saa ham, sled Aanden straks i ham, og han faldt om paa Jorden og væltede sig og fraadede.
So they brought him to Jesus. And the spirit, when he saw Jesus, immediately threw the youth into convulsions, so that he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.
21 Og han spurgte hans Fader: „Hvor længe er det siden, at dette er kommet over ham?‟ Men han sagde: „Fra Barndommen af;
Then Jesus asked the father, "How long has he been like this?" "From early childhood," he said;
22 og den har ofte kastet ham baade i Ild og i Vand for at ødelægge ham; men om du formaar noget, da forbarm dig over os, og hjælp os!‟
"and often it has thrown him into the fire or into pools of water to destroy him. But, if you possibly can, have pity on us and help us."
23 Men Jesus sagde til ham: „Om du formaar! Alle Ting ere mulige for den, som tror.‟
"'If I possibly can!'" replied Jesus; "why, everything is possible to him who believes."
24 Straks raabte Barnets Fader og sagde med Taarer: „Jeg tror, hjælp min Vantro!‟
Immediately the father cried out, "I do believe: strengthen my weak faith."
25 Men da Jesus saa, at Skaren stimlede sammen, truede han den urene Aand og sagde til den: „Du maalløse og døve Aand! jeg byder dig, far ud af ham, og far ikke mere ind i ham!‟
Then Jesus, seeing that an increasing crowd was running towards Him, rebuked the foul spirit, and said to it, "Dumb and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter into him again."
26 Da skreg og sled den meget i ham og for ud, og han blev ligesom død, saa at de fleste sagde: „Han er død.‟
So with a loud cry he threw the boy into fit after fit, and came out. The boy looked as if he were dead, so that most of them said he was dead;
27 Men Jesus tog ham ved Haanden og rejste ham op; og han stod op.
but Jesus took his hand and raised him up, and he stood on his feet.
28 Og da han var kommen ind i et Hus, spurgte hans Disciple ham i Enrum: „Hvorfor kunde vi ikke uddrive den?‟
After the return of Jesus to the house His disciples asked Him privately, "How is it that we could not expel the spirit?"
29 Og han sagde til dem: „Denne Slags kan ikke fare ud ved noget, uden ved Bøn og Faste.‟
"An evil spirit of this kind," He answered, "can only be driven out by prayer."
30 Og da de gik ud derfra, vandrede de igennem Galilæa; og han vilde ikke, at nogen skulde vide det.
Departing thence they passed through Galilee, and He was unwilling that any one should know it;
31 Thi han lærte sine Disciple og sagde til dem: „Menneskesønnen overgives i Menneskers Hænder, og de skulle slaa ham ihjel; og naar han er ihjelslaaet, skal han opstaa tre Dage efter.‟
for He was teaching His disciples, and telling them, "The Son of Man is to be betrayed into the hands of men, and they will put Him to death; and after being put to death, in three days He will rise to life again."
32 Men de forstode ikke det Ord og frygtede for at spørge ham.
They, however, did not understand what He meant, and were afraid to question Him.
33 Og de kom til Kapernaum, og da han var kommen ind i Huset, spurgte han dem: „Hvad var det, I overvejede med hverandre paa Vejen?‟
So they came to Capernaum; and when in the house He asked them, "What were you arguing about on the way?"
34 Men de tav; thi de havde talt med hverandre paa Vejen om, hvem der var den største.
But they remained silent; for on the way they had debated with one another who was the chief of them.
35 Og han satte sig og kaldte paa de tolv og siger til dem: „Dersom nogen vil være den første, han skal være den sidste af alle og alles Tjener.‟
Then sitting down He called the Twelve, and said to them, "If any one wishes to be first, he must be last of all and servant of all."
36 Og han tog et lille Barn og stillede det midt iblandt dem og tog det i Favn og sagde til dem:
And taking a young child He made him stand in their midst, then threw His arms round him and said,
37 „Den, som modtager eet af disse smaa Børn for mit Navns Skyld, modtager mig; og den, som modtager mig, modtager ikke mig, men den, som udsendte mig.‟
"Whoever for my sake receives one such young child as this, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not so much me as Him who sent me."
38 Johannes sagde til ham: „Mester! vi saa en, som ikke følger os, uddrive onde Aander i dit Navn; og vi forbøde ham det, fordi han ikke følger os.‟
"Rabbi," said John to Him, "we saw a man making use of your name to expel demons, and we tried to hinder him, on the ground that he did not follow us."
39 Men Jesus sagde: „Forbyder ham det ikke; thi der er ingen, som gør en kraftig Gerning i mit Navn og snart efter kan tale ilde om mig.
"You should not have tried to hinder him," replied Jesus, "for there is no one who will use my name to perform a miracle and be able the next minute to speak evil of me.
40 Thi den, som ikke er imod os, er for os.
He who is not against us is for us;
41 Thi den, som giver eder et Bæger Vand at drikke i mit Navn, fordi I høre Kristus til, sandelig, siger jeg eder, han skal ingenlunde miste sin Løn.
and whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, I solemnly tell you that he will certainly not lose his reward.
42 Og den, som forarger en af disse smaa, som tro, for ham var det bedre, at der laa en Møllesten om hans Hals, og han var kastet i Havet.
"And whoever shall occasion the fall of one of these little ones who believe, he would be better off if, with a millstone round his neck, he were lying at the bottom of the sea.
43 Og dersom din Haand forarger dig, saa hug den af; det er bedre for dig at gaa som en Krøbling ind til Livet end at have to Hænder og fare til Helvede til den uudslukkelige Ild, (Geenna g1067)
If your hand should cause you to sin, cut it off: it would be better for you to enter into Life maimed, than remain in possession of both your hands and go away into Gehenna, into the fire which cannot be put out. (Geenna g1067)
44 [hvor deres Orm ikke dør, og Ilden ikke udslukkes.]
45 Og dersom din Fod forarger dig, saa hug den af; det er bedre for dig at gaa lam ind til Livet end at have to Fødder og blive kastet i Helvede, (Geenna g1067)
Or if your foot should cause you to sin, cut it off: it would be better for you to enter into Life crippled, than remain in possession of both your feet and be thrown into Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
46 [hvor deres Orm ikke dør, og Ilden ikke udslukkes.]
47 Og dersom dit Øje forarger dig, saa riv det ud; det er bedre for dig at gaa enøjet ind i Guds Rige end at have to Øjne og blive kastet i Helvede, (Geenna g1067)
Or if your eye should cause you to sin, tear it out. It would be better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God half-blind than remain in possession of two eyes and be thrown into Gehenna, (Geenna g1067)
48 hvor deres Orm ikke dør, og Ilden ikke udslukkes.
where their worm does not die and the fire does not go out.
49 Thi enhver skal saltes med Ild, og alt Offer skal saltes med Salt.
Every one, however, will be salted with fire.
50 Saltet er godt; men dersom Saltet bliver saltløst, hvormed ville I da give det sin Kraft igen? Haver Salt i eder selv, og holder Fred med hverandre!‟
Salt is a good thing, but if the salt should become tasteless, what will you use to give it saltness? Have salt within you and live at peace with one another."
