Matthæus 16
1 Og Farisæerne og Saddukæerne kom hen og fristede ham og begærede, at han vilde vise dem et Tegn fra Himmelen.
Here the Pharisees and Sadducees came up, and, to test Jesus, requested him to show them some sign from the heavens.
2 Men han svarede og sagde til dem: „Om Aftenen sige I: Det bliver en skøn Dag, thi Himmelen er rød;
But Jesus answered, “In the evening you say ‘It will be fine weather, for the sky is as red as fire.’
3 og om Morgenen: Det bliver Storm i Dag, thi Himmelen er rød og mørk. Om Himmelens Udseende vide I at dømme, men om Tidernes Tegn kunne I det ikke.
But in the morning you say ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is as red as fire and threatening.’ You learn to read the sky; yet you are unable to read the signs of the times!
4 En ond og utro Slægt forlanger Tegn; men der skal intet Tegn gives den uden Jonas's Tegn.‟ Og han forlod dem og gik bort.
A wicked and unfaithful generation is asking for a sign, but no sign will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” So he left them and went away.
5 Og da hans Disciple kom over til hin Side, havde de glemt at tage Brød med.
Now the disciples had crossed to the opposite shore, and had forgotten to take any bread.
6 Og Jesus sagde til dem: „Ser til, og tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Surdejg!‟
Presently Jesus said to them, “Take care and be on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
7 Men de tænkte ved sig selv og sagde: „Det er, fordi vi ikke toge Brød med.‟
But the disciples began talking among themselves about their having brought no bread.
8 Men da Jesus mærkede dette, sagde han: „I lidettroende! hvorfor tænke I ved eder selv paa, at I ikke have taget Brød med?
On noticing this, Jesus said, “Why are you talking among yourselves about your being short of bread, you of little faith?
9 Forstaa I ikke endnu? Komme I heller ikke i Hu de fem Brød til de fem Tusinde, og hvor mange Kurve I da toge op?
Don’t you yet see, nor remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took away?
10 Ikke heller de syv Brød til de fire Tusinde, og hvor mange Kurve I da toge op?
Nor yet the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you took away?
11 Hvorledes forstaa I da ikke, at det ej var om Brød, jeg sagde det til eder? Men tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Surdejg.‟
How is it that you do not see that I was not speaking about bread? Be on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
12 Da forstode de, at han havde ikke sagt, at de skulde tage sig i Vare for Surdejgen i Brød, men for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Lære.
Then they understood that he had told them to be on their guard, not against the leaven of bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
13 Men da Jesus var kommen til Egnen ved Kæsarea Filippi, spurgte han sine Disciple og sagde: „Hvem sige Folk, at Menneskesønnen er?‟
On coming into the region of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked his disciples this question – “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?”
14 Men de sagde: „Nogle sige Johannes Døberen; andre Elias; andre Jeremias eller en af Profeterne.‟
“Some say John the Baptist,” they answered, “Others, however, say that he is Elijah, while others again say Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”
15 Han siger til dem: „Men I, hvem sige I, at jeg er?‟
“But you,” he said, “who do you say that I am?”
16 Da svarede Simon Peter og sagde: „Du er Kristus, den levende Guds Søn.‟
To this Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
17 Og Jesus svarede og sagde til ham: „Salig er du, Simon Jonas's Søn! thi Kød og Blod har ikke aabenbaret dig det, men min Fader, som er i Himlene.
“Blessed are you, Simon, Son of Jonah,” Jesus replied. “For no human being has revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
18 Saa siger jeg ogsaa dig, at du er Petrus, og paa denne Klippe vil jeg bygge min Menighed, og Dødsrigets Porte skulle ikke faa Overhaand over den. (Hadēs g86)
Yes, and I say to you, your name is ‘Peter’ – a Rock, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail over it. (Hadēs g86)
19 Og jeg vil give dig Himmeriges Riges Nøgler, og hvad du binder paa Jorden, det skal være bundet i Himlene, og hvad du løser paa Jorden, det skal være løst i Himlene.‟
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be held in heaven to be forbidden, and whatever you allow on earth will be held in heaven to be allowed.”
20 Da bød han sine Disciple, at de maatte ikke sige til nogen, at han var Kristus.
Then he charged his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ.
21 Fra den Tid begyndte Jesus at give sine Disciple til Kende, at han skulde gaa til Jerusalem og lide meget af de Ældste og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge og ihjelslaas og oprejses paa den tredje Dag.
At that time Jesus Christ began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem, and undergo much suffering at the hands of the elders, and chief priests, and teachers of the Law, and be put to death, and rise on the third day.
22 Og Peter tog ham til Side, begyndte at sætte ham i Rette og sagde: „Gud bevare dig, Herre; dette skal ingenlunde ske dig!‟
But Peter took Jesus aside, and began to rebuke him. “Master,” he said, “please God that will never be your fate!”
23 Men han vendte sig og sagde til Peter: „Vig bag mig, Satan! du er mig en Forargelse; thi du sanser ikke, hvad Guds er, men hvad Menneskers er.‟
Jesus, however, turning to Peter, said, “Out of my way, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you look at things, not as God does, but as person does.”
24 Da sagde Jesus til sine Disciple: „Vil nogen komme efter mig, han fornægte sig selv og tage sit Kors op og følge mig!
Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone wishes to walk in my steps, they must renounce self, and take up their cross, and follow me.
25 Thi den, som vil frelse sit Liv, skal miste det; men den, som mister sit Liv for min Skyld, skal bjærge det.
For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, and whoever, for my sake, loses his life will find it.
26 Thi hvad gavner det et Menneske, om han vinder den hele Verden, men maa bøde med sin Sjæl? Eller hvad kan et Menneske give til Vederlag for sin Sjæl?
What good will it do a person to gain the whole world, if he forfeits his life? Or what will a person give that is of equal value with his life?
27 Thi Menneskesønnen skal komme i sin Faders Herlighed med sine Engle; og da skal han betale enhver efter hans Gerning.
For the Son of Man is to come in his Father’s glory, with his angels, and then he will give to everyone what his actions deserve.
28 Sandelig, siger jeg eder, der er nogle af dem, som staa her, der ingenlunde skulle smage Døden, førend de se Menneskesønnen komme i sit Rige.‟
I tell you, some of those who are standing here will not know death until they have seen the Son of Man coming into his kingdom.”
