Matthæus 19
1 Og det skete, da Jesus havde fuldendt disse Ord, drog han bort fra Galilæa og kom til Judæas Egne, hinsides Jordan.
And when Jesus had finished these discourses, He departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judea, beyond Jordan:
2 Og store Skarer fulgte ham, og han helbredte dem der.
and great multitudes followed Him, and there He healed them.
3 Og Farisæerne kom til ham, fristede ham og sagde: „Er det tilladt at skille sig fra sin Hustru af hvilken som helst Grund?”
And the pharisees came to Him to ensnare Him, and asked Him, whether it was lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4 Men han svarede og sagde: „Have I ikke læst, at Skaberen fra Begyndelsen skabte dem som Mand og Kvinde
And He answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that He, who made them at first, made them male and female, and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother,
5 og sagde: „Derfor skal en Mand forlade sin Fader og sin Moder og holde sig til sin Hustru, og de to skulle blive til eet Kød?”
and be joined to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh:
6 Saaledes ere de ikke længer to, men eet Kød. Derfor, hvad Gud har sammenføjet, maa et Menneske ikke adskille.”
so that they are no longer two, but one flesh. And therefore what God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
7 De sige til ham: „Hvorfor bød da Moses at give et Skilsmissebrev og skille sig fra hende?”
They say unto Him, Why then did Moses order a bill of divorce to be given, and so to put her away?
8 Han siger til dem: „Moses tilstedte eder at skille eder fra eders Hustruer for eders Hjerters Haardheds Skyld; men fra Begyndelsen har det ikke været saaledes.
He answered them, Moses because of your hardheartedness, permitted you to put away your wives; but it was not so from the beginning:
9 Men jeg siger eder, at den, som skiller sig fra sin Hustru, naar det ikke er for Hors Skyld, og tager en anden til Ægte, han bedriver Hor; og den, som tager en fraskilt Hustru til Ægte, han bedriver Hor.”
and I tell you, that whosoever putteth away his wife, except for whoredom, and marrieth another, committeth adultery; and he that marrieth her so put away committeth adultery.
10 Hans Disciple sige til ham: „Staar Mandens Sag med Hustruen saaledes, da er det ikke godt at gifte sig.”
His disciples say unto Him, if the case of a man with his wife be thus, it is not adviseable to marry:
11 Men han sagde til dem: „Ikke alle rumme dette Ord, men de, hvem det er givet:
but He said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying of yours, but those only who have the gift of continence:
12 Thi der er Gildinger, som ere fødte saaledes fra Moders Liv; og der er Gildinger, som ere gildede af Mennesker; og der er Gildinger, som have gildet sig selv for Himmeriges Riges Skyld. Den, som kan rumme det, han rumme det!”
for there are some eunuchs, who were born so from their mother's womb; and there be some, who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs, who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He that can receive this saying, let him receive it.
13 Da blev der baaret smaa Børn til ham, for at han skulde lægge Hænderne paa dem og bede; men Disciplene truede dem.
Then were brought to Him little children, that He might put his hands upon them, and bless them: and the disciples rebuked them;
14 Da sagde Jesus: „Lader de smaa Børn komme, og formener dem ikke at komme til mig; thi Himmeriges Rige hører saadanne til.”
but Jesus said, Suffer the children to come to me, and do not hinder them: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
15 Og han lagde Hænderne paa dem, og han drog derfra.
And when He had laid his hands on them, he departed thence.
16 Og se, en kom til ham og sagde: „Mester! hvad godt skal jeg gøre, for at jeg kan faa et evigt Liv?” (aiōnios g166)
And behold, there came one to Him, and said, Good master, what good shall I do, that I may have eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
17 Men han sagde til ham: „Hvorfor spørger du mig om det gode? Een er den gode. Men vil du indgaa til Livet, da hold Budene!”
And He said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou desirest to enter into life, keep the commandments.
18 Han siger til ham: „Hvilke?” Men Jesus sagde: „Dette: Du maa ikke slaa ihjel; du maa ikke bedrive Hor; du maa ikke stjæle; du maa ikke sige falsk Vidnesbyrd;
He saith unto Him, Which? And Jesus answered, Thou shalt do no murther, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and mother;
19 ær din Fader og din Moder, og: Du skal elske din Næste som dig selv.”
and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thy self.
20 Den unge Mand siger til ham: „Det har jeg holdt alt sammen; hvad fattes mig endnu?”
The young man saith unto Him, All these have I kept from my youth: wherein am I yet deficient?
21 Jesus sagde til ham: „Vil du være fuldkommen, da gaa bort, sælg, hvad du ejer, og giv det til fattige, saa skal du have en Skat i Himmelen; og kom saa og følg mig!”
Jesus replied, If thou wouldst be perfect, go, sell thy estate, and give it to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come and follow me.
22 Men da den unge Mand hørte det Ord, gik han bedrøvet bort; thi han havde meget Gods.
But when the young man heard that, he went away sorrowful; for he had large possessions.
23 Men Jesus sagde til sine Disciple: „Sandelig siger jeg eder: En rig kommer vanskeligt ind i Himmeriges Rige.
Then said Jesus to his disciples, Verily I tell you, that a rich man shall with difficulty enter into the kingdom of heaven:
24 Atter siger jeg eder: Det er lettere for en Kamel at gaa igennem et Naaleøje end for en rig at gaa ind i Guds Rige.”
and again I tell you, It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
25 Men da Disciplene hørte dette, forfærdedes de saare og sagde: „Hvem kan da blive frelst?”
His disciples, when they heard this, were exceedingly struck, and said, Who then can be saved?
26 Men Jesus saa paa dem og sagde: „For Mennesker er dette umuligt, men for Gud ere alle Ting mulige.”
But Jesus looking upon them said unto them, With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
27 Da svarede Peter og sagde til ham: „Se, vi have forladt alle Ting og fulgt dig; hvad skulle da vi have?”
Then Peter replied and said unto Him, Behold we have quitted all and have followed thee; what then shall we have?
28 Men Jesus sagde til dem: „Sandelig siger jeg eder, at i Igenfødelsen, naar Menneskesønnen sidder paa sin Herligheds Trone, skulle ogsaa I, som have fulgt mig, sidde paa tolv Troner og dømme Israels tolv Stammer.
And Jesus said unto them, Verily I tell you, that ye who have followed me, in the regeneration, when the son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon the twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel:
29 Og hver, som har forladt Hus eller Brødre eller Søstre eller Fader eller Moder eller Hustru eller Børn eller Marker for mit Navns Skyld, skal faa det mange Fold igen og arve et evigt Liv. (aiōnios g166)
yea and every one who hath left houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, shall receive an hundred-fold, and shall inherit eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
30 Men mange af de første skulle blive de sidste, og af de sidste de første.
But many that are first shall be last, and the last first.
