Matthæus 13
1 Paa hin Dag gik Jesus ud af Huset og satte sig ved Søen.
And on that day, having departed from the house, Jesus was sitting beside the sea.
2 Og store Skarer samlede sig om ham, saa han gik om Bord i et Skib og satte sig; og hele Skaren stod paa Strandbredden.
And many multitudes were gathered to him, so as for him (having entered in) to sit in the boat, and all the multitude had stood on the shore.
3 Og han talte meget til dem i Lignelser og sagde: „Se, en Sædemand gik ud at saa.
And he spoke many things to them in parables, saying, Behold, the man who sows went forth to sow.
4 Og idet han saaede, faldt noget ved Vejen; og Fuglene kom og aade det op.
And as he sowed, some fell by the wayside, and the birds came and devoured them.
5 Og noget faldt paa Stengrund, hvor det ikke havde megen Jord; og det voksede straks op, fordi det ikke havde dyb Jord.
But others fell upon the rocky places, where they had not much soil, and straightaway they sprang up because they had no depth of soil.
6 Men da Solen kom op, blev det svedet af, og fordi det ikke havde Rod, visnede det.
But when the sun was risen, they were scorched, and because they had no root they withered.
7 Og noget faldt iblandt Torne; og Tornene voksede op og kvalte det.
And others fell in the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.
8 Og noget faldt i god Jord og bar Frugt, noget hundrede, noget tresindstyve, noget tredive Fold.
But others fell upon the good ground, and yielded fruit, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
9 Den, som har Øren, han høre!‟
He who has ears, let him hear.
10 Og Disciplene gik hen og sagde til ham: „Hvorfor taler du til dem i Lignelser?‟
And the disciples having come, they said to him, Why do thou speak to them in parables?
11 Men han svarede og sagde til dem: „Fordi det er eder givet at kende Himmeriges Riges Hemmeligheder; men dem er det ikke givet.
And having answered, he said to them, Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to those men it has not been given.
12 Thi den, som har, ham skal der gives, og han skal faa Overflod; men den, som ikke har, fra ham skal endog det tages, som han har.
For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance, but whoever has not, even what he has will be taken away from him.
13 Derfor taler jeg til dem i Lignelser, fordi de skønt seende dog ikke se, og hørende dog ikke høre og forstaa ikke heller.
Because of this I speak to them in parables, because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, nor do they understand.
14 Og paa dem opfyldes Esajas Profeti, som siger: Med eders Øren skulle I høre og dog ikke forstaa og se med eders Øjne og dog ikke se.
And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which says, By hearing ye will hear, and will, no, not understand, and seeing ye will see, and will, no, not perceive.
15 Thi dette Folks Hjerte er blevet sløvet, og med Ørene høre de tungt, og deres Øjne have de tillukket, for at de ikke skulle se med Øjnene og høre med Ørene og forstaa med Hjertet og omvende sig, saa jeg kunde helbrede dem.
For this people's heart became fat, and their ears hear heavily, and their eyes are shut, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should turn, and I will heal them.
16 Men salige ere eders Øjne, fordi de se, og eders Øren, fordi de høre.
But blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears, because they hear.
17 Thi sandelig, siger jeg eder, mange Profeter og retfærdige attraaede at se, hvad I se, og saa det ikke; og at høre, hvad I høre, og hørte det ikke.
For truly I say to you, that many prophets and righteous men longed to see the things that ye see, and did not see them, and to hear the things that ye hear, and did not hear them.
18 Saa hører nu I Lignelsen om Sædemanden!
Hear ye then the parable of the man who sows.
19 Naar nogen hører Rigets Ord og ikke forstaar det, da kommer den Onde og river det bort, som er saaet i hans Hjerte; denne er det, som blev saaet ved Vejen.
Of every man who hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, evil comes, and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is that which was sown by the wayside.
20 Men det, som blev saaet paa Stengrund, er den, som hører Ordet og straks modtager det med Glæde.
And that which was sown upon the rocky places, this is he who hears the word, and straightaway receiving it with joy,
21 Men han har ikke Rod i sig og holder kun ud til en Tid; men naar der kommer Trængsel eller Forfølgelse for Ordets Skyld, forarges han straks.
yet he has no root in himself, instead it is temporary. And when tribulation or persecution develops because of the word, straightaway he is caused to stumble.
22 Men det, som blev saaet iblandt Torne, er den, som hører Ordet, og Verdens Bekymring og Rigdommens Forførelse kvæler Ordet, og det bliver uden Frugt. (aiōn g165)
And that which was sown in the thorns, this is he who hears the word, and the care of this age, and the deceitfulness of wealth, choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
23 Men det, som blev saaet i god Jord, er den, som hører Ordet og forstaar det, og som saa bærer Frugt, en hundrede, en tresindstyve, en tredive Fold.‟
But that which was sown upon the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who indeed bears fruit, and is productive, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
24 En anden Lignelse fremsatte han for dem og sagde: „Himmeriges Rige lignes ved et Menneske, som saaede god Sæd i sin Mark.
He set forth another parable to them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is compared to a man sowing good seed in his field.
25 Men medens Folkene sov, kom hans Fjende og saaede Ugræs iblandt Hveden og gik bort.
But while the men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares in the midst of the wheat, and went away.
26 Men da Sæden spirede frem og bar Frugt, da kom ogsaa Ugræsset til Syne.
And when the blade sprouted and produced fruit, then the tares also appeared.
27 Og Husbondens Tjenere kom til ham og sagde: Herre, saaede du ikke god Sæd i din Mark? Hvor har den da faaet Ugræsset fra?
But the bondmen of the house-ruler having come, they said to him, Sir, did thou not sow good seed in thy field? From where then does it have tares?
28 Men han sagde til dem: Det har et fjendsk Menneske gjort. Da sige Tjenerne til ham: Vil du da, at vi skulle gaa hen og sanke det sammen?
And he said to them, A hostile man did this. And the bondmen said to him, Do thou desire therefore, after going, we would gather them up?
29 Men han siger: Nej, for at I ikke, naar I sanke Ugræsset sammen, skulle rykke Hveden op tillige med det.
But he said, No, lest while gathering up the tares, ye uproot the wheat together with them.
30 Lader dem begge vokse tilsammen indtil Høsten; og i Høstens Tid vil jeg sige til Høstfolkene: Sanker først Ugræsset sammen og binder det i Knipper for at brænde det, men samler Hveden i min Lade!‟
Allow both to grow together until the harvest. And at the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather up first the tares, and bind them in bundles in order to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.
31 En anden Lignelse fremsatte han for dem og sagde: „Himmeriges Rige ligner et Sennepskorn, som en Mand tog og saaede i sin Mark.
He set forth another parable to them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is like a grain of mustard plant, which having taken, a man sowed in his field.
32 Dette er vel mindre end alt andet Frø; men naar det er vokset op, er det større end Urterne og bliver et Træ, saa at Himmelens Fugle komme og bygge Rede i dets Grene.‟
Which indeed is smaller than all seeds, but when it is grown, it is greater than the plants, and becomes a tree, so as for the birds of the sky to come and lodge in the branches of it.
33 En anden Lignelse talede han til dem: „Himmeriges Rige ligner en Surdejg, som en Kvinde tog og lagde ned i tre Maal Mel, indtil det blev syret alt sammen.‟
He spoke another parable to them. The kingdom of the heavens is like leaven, which having taken, a woman hid in three measures of meal until it was all leavened.
34 Alt dette talte Jesus til Skarerne i Lignelser, og uden Lignelse talte han intet til dem,
Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes, and he did not speak to them independent of a parable,
35 for at det skulde opfyldes, som er talt ved Profeten, der siger: „Jeg vil oplade min Mund i Lignelser; jeg vil udsige det, som har været skjult fra Verdens Grundlæggelse.‟
so that what was spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled, which says, I will open my mouth in parables. I will utter things concealed from the foundation of the world.
36 Da forlod han Skarerne og gik ind i Huset; og hans Disciple kom til ham og sagde: „Forklar os Lignelsen om Ugræsset paa Marken!‟
Then having sent the multitudes away, Jesus came into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field.
37 Men han svarede og sagde: „Den, som saar den gode Sæd, er Menneskesønnen,
And having answered, he said to them, He who sows the good seed is the Son of man,
38 og Marken er Verden, og den gode Sæd er Rigets Børn, men Ugræsset er den Ondes Børn,
and the field is the world, and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of evil.
39 og Fjenden, som saaede det, er Djævelen; og Høsten er Verdens Ende; og Høstfolkene ere Engle. (aiōn g165)
And the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are agents. (aiōn g165)
40 Ligesom nu Ugræsset sankes sammen og opbrændes med Ild, saaledes skal det ske ved Verdens Ende. (aiōn g165)
As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned in fire, so it will be at the end of this age. (aiōn g165)
41 Menneskesønnen skal udsende sine Engle, og de skulle sanke ud af hans Rige alle Forargelserne og dem, som gøre Uret;
The Son of man will send forth his agents, and they will gather out of his kingdom all the stumbling-blocks, and those doing lawlessness,
42 og de skulle kaste dem i Ildovnen; der skal være Graad og Tænders Gnidsel.
and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
43 Da skulle de retfærdige skinne som Solen i deres Faders Rige. Den, som har Øren, han høre!
Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
44 Himmeriges Rige ligner en Skat, som er skjult i en Mark, og en Mand fandt og skjulte den, og af Glæde over den gaar han hen og sælger alt, hvad han har, og køber den Mark.
Again the kingdom of the heavens is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man having found, he hid. And from the joy of it, he goes and sells all, as many things as he has, and buys that field.
45 Atter ligner Himmeriges Rige en Købmand, som søgte efter skønne Perler;
Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like a man, a merchant, seeking fine pearls.
46 og da han fandt een meget kostbar Perle, gik han hen og solgte alt, hvad han havde, og købte den.
Who, having found one very valuable pearl, after departing, sold all, as many things as he had, and bought it.
47 Atter ligner Himmeriges Rige et Vod, som blev kastet i Havet og samlede Fisk af alle Slags.
Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like a net that was cast into the sea, and gathered from every kind,
48 Og da det var blevet fuldt, drog man det op paa Strandbredden og satte sig og sankede de gode sammen i Kar, men kastede de raadne ud.
which, when it was full, after dragging to the shore, having sat down, they gathered the good into vessels, but they cast out the useless.
49 Saaledes skal det gaa til ved Verdens Ende. Englene skulle gaa ud og skille de onde fra de retfærdige (aiōn g165)
So it will be at the end of the age. The agents will come forth, and separate the bad from among the righteous, (aiōn g165)
50 og kaste dem i Ildovnen; der skal være Graad og Tænders Gnidsel.
and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
51 Have I forstaaet alt dette?‟ De sige til ham: „Ja.‟
Jesus says to them, Have ye understood all these things? They say to him, Yes, Lord.
52 Men han sagde til dem: „Derfor er hver skriftklog, som er oplært for Himmeriges Rige, ligesom en Husbond, der tager nyt og gammelt frem af sit Forraad.‟
And he said to them, Because of this every scholar who has been instructed in the kingdom of the heavens is like a man, a house-ruler, who brings forth out of his treasure things new and old.
53 Og det skete, da Jesus havde fuldendt disse Lignelser, drog han bort derfra.
And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these parables, he departed from there.
54 Og han kom til sin Fædreneby og lærte dem i deres Synagoge, saa at de bleve slagne af Forundring og sagde: „Hvorfra har han denne Visdom og de kraftige Gerninger?
And having come into his fatherland he taught them in their synagogue, so as for them to be astonished, and say, From where is this wisdom and powers in this man?
55 Er denne ikke Tømmermandens Søn? Hedder ikke hans Moder Maria og hans Brødre Jakob og Josef og Simon og Judas?
Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brothers, James and Joses and Simon and Judas?
56 Og hans Søstre, ere de ikke alle hos os? Hvorfra har han da alt dette?‟
And his sisters, are they not all near us? From where then are all these things in this man?
57 Og de forargedes paa ham. Men Jesus sagde til dem: „En Profet er ikke foragtet uden i sit eget Fædreland og i sit Hus.‟
And they were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, except in his fatherland, and in his house.
58 Og han gjorde ikke mange kraftige Gerninger der for deres Vantros Skyld.
And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
