< Matthæus 9 >

1 Og han gik om Bord i et Skib og for over og kom til sin egen By.
Jesus entered a boat, crossed over, and came into his own city.
2 Og se, de bare til ham en værkbruden, som laa paa en Seng; og da Jesus saa deres Tro, sagde han til den værkbrudne: „Søn! vær frimodig, dine Synder forlades dig.‟
Behold, they brought to him a paralyzed man lying on a mat. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralyzed man, “Son, be of good cheer. Your sins have been forgiven.”
3 Og se, nogle af de skriftkloge sagde ved sig selv: „Denne taler bespotteligt.‟
Behold, some of the scribes said among themselves, “This man is blaspheming.”
4 Og da Jesus saa deres Tanker, sagde han: „Hvorfor tænke I ondt i eders Hjerter?
Jesus knew their thoughts and said, “Why are you thinking evil in your hearts?
5 Thi hvilket er lettest at sige: Dine Synder forlades dig, eller at sige: Staa op og gaa?
For which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up and walk'?
6 Men for at I skulle vide, at Menneskesønnen har Magt paa Jorden til at forlade Synder, ‟ da siger han til den værkbrudne: „Staa op, og tag din Seng, og gaa til dit Hus!‟
But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins, ... “he said to the paralytic, “Get up, pick up your mat, and go to your house.”
7 Og han stod op og gik bort til sit Hus.
Then the man got up and went away to his house.
8 Men da Skarerne saa det, frygtede de og priste Gud, som havde givet Menneskene en saadan Magt.
When the crowds saw this, they were amazed and praised God, who had given such authority to people.
9 Og da Jesus gik videre derfra, saa han en Mand, som hed Matthæus, sidde ved Toldboden; og han siger til ham: „Følg mig!‟ Og han stod op og fulgte ham.
As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man named Matthew, who was sitting at the tax collection's tent. He said to him, “Follow me.” He got up and followed him.
10 Og det skete, da han sad til Bords i Huset, se, da kom der mange Toldere og Syndere og sade til Bords med Jesus og hans Disciple.
As Jesus sat down to eat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinful people came and dined with Jesus and his disciples.
11 Og da Farisæerne saa det, sagde de til hans Disciple: „Hvorfor spiser eders Mester med Toldere og Syndere?‟
When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinful people?”
12 Men da Jesus hørte det, sagde han: „De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge.
When Jesus heard this, he said, “People who are strong in body do not need a physician, only those who are sick.
13 Men gaar hen og lærer, hvad det vil sige: Jeg har Lyst til Barmhjertighed og ikke til Offer; thi jeg er ikke kommen for at kalde retfærdige, men Syndere.‟
You should go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice.' For I came not to call the righteous to repent, but sinners.”
14 Da komme Johannes's Disciple til ham og sige: „Hvorfor faste vi og Farisæerne meget, men dine Disciple faste ikke?‟
Then the disciples of John came to him and said, “Why do we and the Pharisees often fast, but your disciples do not fast?”
15 Og Jesus sagde til dem: „Kunne Brudesvendene sørge, saa længe Brudgommen er hos dem? Men der skal komme Dage, da Brudgommen bliver tagen fra dem, og da skulle de faste.
Jesus said to them, “Can wedding attendants be sorrowful while the bridegroom is still with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.
16 Men ingen sætter en Lap af uvalket Klæde paa et gammelt Klædebon; thi Lappen river Klædebonnet itu, og der bliver et værre Hul.
No man puts a piece of new cloth on an old garment, for the patch will tear away from the garment, and a worse tear will be made.
17 Man kommer heller ikke ung Vin paa gamle Læderflasker, ellers sprænges Læderflaskerne, og Vinen spildes, og Læderflaskerne ødelægges; men man kommer ung Vin paa nye Læderflasker, saa blive begge Dele bevarede.‟
Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will be spilled, and the wineskins will be destroyed. Instead, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both will be preserved.”
18 Medens han talte dette til dem, se, da kom der en Forstander og faldt ned for ham og sagde: „Min Datter er lige nu død; men kom og læg din Haand paa hende, saa bliver hun levende.‟
While Jesus was saying these things to them, behold, an official came and bowed down to him. He said, “My daughter has just now died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”
19 Og Jesus stod op og fulgte ham med sine Disciple.
Then Jesus got up and followed him, and so did his disciples.
20 Og se, en Kvinde, som havde haft Blodflod i tolv Aar, traadte hen bagfra og rørte ved Fligen af hans Klædebon;
Behold, a woman who suffered from a discharge of blood for twelve years came up behind Jesus and touched the edge of his garment.
21 thi hun sagde ved sig selv: „Dersom jeg blot rører ved hans Klædebon, bliver jeg frelst.‟
For she had said to herself, “If only I touch his clothes, I will be made well.”
22 Men Jesus vendte sig om, og da han saa hende, sagde han: „Datter! vær frimodig, din Tro har frelst dig.‟ Og Kvinden blev frelst fra den samme Time.
But Jesus turned and saw her, and said, “Daughter, take courage; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was healed from that hour.
23 Og da Jesus kom til Forstanderens Hus og saa Fløjtespillerne og Hoben, som larmede, sagde han:
When Jesus came into the official's house, he saw the flute players and the crowds making much noise.
24 „Gaar bort, thi Pigen er ikke død, men hun sover.‟ Og de lo ad ham.
He said, “Go away, for the girl is not dead, but she is asleep.” But they laughed at him in mockery.
25 Men da Hoben var dreven ud, gik han ind og tog hende ved Haanden; og Pigen stod op.
When the crowd had been put outside, he entered the room and took her by the hand, and the girl got up.
26 Og Rygtet herom kom ud i hele den Egn.
The news about this spread into all that region.
27 Og da Jesus gik bort derfra, fulgte der ham to blinde, som raabte og sagde: „Forbarm dig over os, du Davids Søn!‟
As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him. They kept shouting and saying, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”
28 Men da han kom ind i Huset, gik de blinde til ham; og Jesus siger til dem: „Tro I, at jeg kan gøre dette?‟ De sige til ham: „Ja, Herre!‟
When Jesus had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I can do this?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord.”
29 Da rørte han ved deres Øjne og sagde: „Det ske eder efter eders Tro!‟
Then Jesus touched their eyes and said, “Let it be done to you according to your faith,”
30 Og deres Øjne bleve aabnede. Og Jesus bød dem strengt og sagde: „Ser til, lad ingen faa det at vide.‟
and their eyes were opened. Then Jesus strictly commanded them and said, “See that no one knows about this.”
31 Men de gik ud og udbredte Rygtet om ham i hele den Egn.
But the two men went out and spread the news about this throughout that region.
32 Men da disse gik ud, se, da førte de til ham et stumt Menneske, som var besat.
As those two men were going away, behold, a mute man possessed by a demon was brought to Jesus.
33 Og da den onde Aand var uddreven, talte den stumme. Og Skarerne forundrede sig og sagde: „Aldrig er saadant set i Israel.‟
When the demon had been driven out, the mute man spoke. The crowds were astonished and said, “This has never been seen before in Israel!”
34 Men Farisæerne sagde: „Ved de onde Aanders Fyrste uddriver han de onde Aander.‟
But the Pharisees were saying, “By the ruler of the demons, he drives out demons.”
35 Og Jesus gik omkring i alle Byerne og Landsbyerne, lærte i deres Synagoger og prædikede Rigets Evangelium og helbredte enhver Sygdom og enhver Skrøbelighed.
Jesus went about all the cities and the villages. He continued teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of disease and all kinds of sickness.
36 Men da han saa Skarerne, ynkedes han inderligt over dem; thi de vare vanrøgtede og forkomne som Faar, der ikke have Hyrde.
When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were troubled and discouraged. They were like sheep without a shepherd.
37 Da siger han til sine Disciple: „Høsten er stor, men Arbejderne ere faa;
He said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
38 beder derfor Høstens Herre om, at han vil sende Arbejdere ud til sin Høst.‟
Therefore urgently pray to the Lord of the harvest, so that he may send out laborers into his harvest.”
