Matthæus 9
1 Og han gik om Bord i et Skib og for over og kom til sin egen By.
And he entered into a boat, and passed 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.‟
And behold, they brought to him a man sick with the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the sick of the palsy, Son, be of good cheer; thy sins are forgiven thee.
3 Og se, nogle af de skriftkloge sagde ved sig selv: „Denne taler bespotteligt.‟
And behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This [man] blasphemeth.
4 Og da Jesus saa deres Tanker, sagde han: „Hvorfor tænke I ondt i eders Hjerter?
And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, Why think ye 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, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, 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 ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick with the palsy, ) Arise, take up thy bed, and go to thy house.
7 Og han stod op og gik bort til sit Hus.
And he arose, and departed to his house.
8 Men da Skarerne saa det, frygtede de og priste Gud, som havde givet Menneskene en saadan Magt.
But when the multitude saw [it], they marveled, and glorified God, who had given such power to men.
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.
And as Jesus was passing from thence, he saw a man named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose, 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.
And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at table in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.
11 Og da Farisæerne saa det, sagde de til hans Disciple: „Hvorfor spiser eders Mester med Toldere og Syndere?‟
And when the Pharisees saw [it], they said to his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?
12 Men da Jesus hørte det, sagde han: „De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge.
But when Jesus heard [that], he said to them, They that are in health need not a physician, but they that 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.‟
But go ye and learn what [that] meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
14 Da komme Johannes's Disciple til ham og sige: „Hvorfor faste vi og Farisæerne meget, men dine Disciple faste ikke?‟
Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but thy disciples fast not?
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.
And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the bride-chamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken 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 putteth a piece of new cloth to an old garment: for that which is put in to fill it up, taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.
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 men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are 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 he was speaking these things to them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshiped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she will live.
19 Og Jesus stod op og fulgte ham med sine Disciple.
And Jesus arose, 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;
(And behold, a woman who was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind [him], and touched the hem of his garment.
21 thi hun sagde ved sig selv: „Dersom jeg blot rører ved hans Klædebon, bliver jeg frelst.‟
For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.
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 himself about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.)
23 Og da Jesus kom til Forstanderens Hus og saa Fløjtespillerne og Hoben, som larmede, sagde han:
And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,
24 „Gaar bort, thi Pigen er ikke død, men hun sover.‟ Og de lo ad ham.
He said to them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they derided him.
25 Men da Hoben var dreven ud, gik han ind og tog hende ved Haanden; og Pigen stod op.
But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.
26 Og Rygtet herom kom ud i hele den Egn.
And the fame of this went abroad into all that land.
27 Og da Jesus gik bort derfra, fulgte der ham to blinde, som raabte og sagde: „Forbarm dig over os, du Davids Søn!‟
And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, [Thou] son of David, have mercy on us.
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!‟
And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith to them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.
29 Da rørte han ved deres Øjne og sagde: „Det ske eder efter eders Tro!‟
Then he touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith, be it to you.
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; and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See [that] no man know [it].
31 Men de gik ud og udbredte Rygtet om ham i hele den Egn.
But they, when they had departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.
32 Men da disse gik ud, se, da førte de til ham et stumt Menneske, som var besat.
As thy went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a demon.
33 Og da den onde Aand var uddreven, talte den stumme. Og Skarerne forundrede sig og sagde: „Aldrig er saadant set i Israel.‟
And when the demon was cast out, the dumb spoke: and the multitudes marveled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.
34 Men Farisæerne sagde: „Ved de onde Aanders Fyrste uddriver han de onde Aander.‟
But the Pharisees said, He casteth out demons, through the prince of the 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.
And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness, and every disease among the people.
36 Men da han saa Skarerne, ynkedes han inderligt over dem; thi de vare vanrøgtede og forkomne som Faar, der ikke have Hyrde.
But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
37 Da siger han til sine Disciple: „Høsten er stor, men Arbejderne ere faa;
Then saith he to his disciples, The harvest truly [is] plentiful, but the laborers [are] few.
38 beder derfor Høstens Herre om, at han vil sende Arbejdere ud til sin Høst.‟
Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest.
