Matthæus 8
1 Men da han var gaaet ned af Bjerget, fulgte store Skarer ham.
So when He came down from the mountain large crowds followed Him.
2 Og se, en spedalsk kom, faldt ned for ham og sagde: „Herre! om du vil, saa kan du rense mig.”
And then, a leper came and worshiped Him saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
3 Og han udrakte Haanden, rørte ved ham og sagde: „Jeg vil; bliv ren!” Og straks blev han renset for sin Spedalskhed.
So reaching out His hand Jesus touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed!” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 Og Jesus siger til ham: „Se til, at du ikke siger det til nogen; men gaa hen, fremstil dig selv for Præsten, og offer den Gave, som Moses har befalet, til Vidnesbyrd for dem.”
And Jesus says to him: “See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a proof to them.”
5 Men da han gik ind i Kapernaum, traadte en Høvedsmand hen til ham, bad ham og sagde:
As He entered Capernaum a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him
6 „Herre! min Dreng ligger hjemme værkbruden og pines svarlig.”
and saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, being terribly tormented.”
7 Jesus siger til ham: „Jeg vil komme og helbrede ham.”
And Jesus says to him, “I will go and heal him.”
8 Og Høvedsmanden svarede og sagde: „Herre! jeg er ikke værdig til, at du skal gaa ind under mit Tag; men sig det blot med et Ord, saa bliver min Dreng helbredet.
But in answer the centurion said: “Lord, I am not worthy that you should come under my roof; but only speak a word and my servant will be healed.
9 Jeg er jo selv et Menneske, som staar under Øvrighed og har Stridsmænd under mig; og siger jeg til den ene: Gaa! saa gaar han; og til den anden: Kom! saa kommer han; og til min Tjener: Gør dette! saa gør han det.”
For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my slave, ‘Do this,’ and he does.”
10 Men da Jesus hørte det, forundrede han sig og sagde til dem, som fulgte ham: „Sandelig, siger jeg eder, end ikke i Israel har jeg fundet saa stor en Tro.
Upon hearing him Jesus marveled, and said to those who were following: “Assuredly I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith!
11 Men jeg siger eder, at mange skulle komme fra Øster og Vester og sidde til Bords med Abraham og Isak og Jakob i Himmeriges Rige.
And I say to you that many will come from east and west and sit down with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of the heavens;
12 Men Rigets Børn skulle kastes ud i Mørket udenfor; der skal der være Graad og Tænders Gnidsel.”
but the sons of the kingdom will be thrown out into the darkness farthest away. There, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13 Og Jesus sagde til Høvedsmanden: „Gaa bort, dig ske, som du troede!” Og Drengen blev helbredet i den samme Time.
Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; and let it be done for you just as you believed.” And his servant was healed in that very hour.
14 Og Jesus kom ind i Peters Hus og saa, at hans Svigermoder laa og havde Feber.
Now when Jesus had come into Peter's house, He saw his mother-in-law laid up and burning with fever.
15 Og han rørte ved hendes Haand, og Feberen forlod hende, og hun stod op og vartede ham op.
So He touched her hand and the fever left her; and she got up and began to serve Him.
16 Men da det var blevet Aften, førte de mange besatte til ham, og han uddrev Aanderne med et Ord og helbredte alle de syge;
And when evening came they brought to Him many who were demonized. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick,
17 for at det skulde opfyldes, som er talt ved Profeten Esajas, der siger: „Han tog vore Skrøbeligheder og bar vore Sygdomme.”
so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet should be fulfilled, namely: “He Himself took our infirmities and bore our diseases.”
18 Men da Jesus saa store Skarer omkring sig, befalede han at fare over til hin Side.
Seeing large crowds around Him Jesus gave an order to depart for the opposite shore.
19 Og der kom een, en skriftklog, og sagde til ham: „Mester! jeg vil følge dig, hvor du end gaar hen.”
Then a certain scribe approaching said to Him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you may go.”
20 Og Jesus siger til ham: „Ræve have Huler, og Himmelens Fugle Reder; men Menneskesønnen har ikke det, hvortil han kan hælde sit Hoved.”
So Jesus says to him, “The foxes have dens and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of the Man does not have where He may lay His head.”
21 Men en anden af Disciplene sagde til ham: „Herre! tilsted mig først at gaa hen og begrave min Fader.”
Then a different one of the disciples said to Him, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.”
22 Men Jesus siger til ham: „Følg mig, og lad de døde begrave deres døde!”
But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.”
23 Og da han gik om Bord i Skibet, fulgte hans Disciple ham.
Now when He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him.
24 Og se, det blev en stærk Storm paa Søen, saa at Skibet skjultes af Bølgerne; men han sov.
And then—a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered by the waves. But He was sleeping.
25 Og de gik hen til ham, vækkede ham og sagde: „Herre, frels os! vi forgaa.”
So the disciples came and awakened Him saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”
26 Og han siger til dem: „Hvorfor ere I bange, I lidettroende?” Da stod han op og truede Vindene og Søen, og det blev ganske blikstille.
And He says to them, “Why are you cowardly, you little-faiths?” Then rising He rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.
27 Men Menneskene forundrede sig og sagde: „Hvem er dog denne, siden baade Vindene og Søen ere ham lydige?”
So the men marveled, saying, “What sort of being is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
28 Og da han kom over til hin Side til Gadarenernes Land, mødte ham to besatte, som kom ud fra Gravene, og de vare saare vilde, saa at ingen kunde komme forbi ad den Vej.
Upon His coming to the other side, to the region of the Gergesenes, two demonized men met Him, coming out from the tombs, very dangerous, so that no one could pass that way.
29 Og se, de raabte og sagde: „Hvad have vi med dig at gøre, du Guds Søn? Er du kommen hid før Tiden for at pine os?”
And then—they cried out saying: “What do you have to do with us, Jesus, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?”
30 Men der var langt fra dem en stor Hjord Svin, som græssede.
Now a good way off from them there was a herd of many pigs feeding.
31 Og de onde Aander bade ham og sagde: „Dersom du uddriver os, da send os i Svinehjorden!”
So the demons kept imploring Him saying, “Since you are going to cast us out, permit us to go into the herd of pigs.”
32 Og han sagde til dem: „Gaar!” Men de fore ud og fore i Svinene; og se, hele Hjorden styrtede sig ned over Brinken ud i Søen og døde i Vandet.
So He said to them, “Go!” And coming out they went off into the herd of pigs. And then—the whole herd of pigs rushed down the steep bank into the sea and died in the water!
33 Men Hyrderne flyede og gik hen i Byen og fortalte det alt sammen, og hvorledes det var gaaet til med de besatte.
So the swineherds ran away, and going into the town they told everything, including about the demonized men.
34 Og se, hele Byen gik ud for at møde Jesus; og da de saa ham, bade de ham om, at han vilde gaa bort fra deres Egn.
And then, the whole town went out to meet with Jesus; and upon seeing Him they begged Him to depart from their borders.
