Johannes 16

1 "Dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I ikke skulle forarges.

These things have I spoken to you, that ye should not be offended.

2 De skulle udelukke eder af Synagogerne, ja, den Tid skal komme, at hver den, som slår eder ihjel, skal mene, at han viser Gud en Dyrkelse.

They shall put you out of the synagogues: yes, the time cometh, that whoever killeth you, will think that he doeth God service.

3 Og dette skulle de gøre, fordi de hverken kende Faderen eller mig.

And these things will they do to you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

4 Men dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I, når Timen kommer, skulle komme i Hu, at jeg har sagt eder det; men dette sagde jeg eder ikke fra Begyndelsen, fordi jeg var hos eder.

But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not to you at the beginning, because I was with you.

5 Men nu går jeg hen til ham, som sendte mig, og ingen af eder spørger mig: Hvor går du hen?

But now I go to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?

6 Men fordi jeg har talt dette til eder, har Bedrøvelsen opfyldt eders Hjerte.

But because I have said these things to you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

7 Men jeg siger eder Sandheden: Det er eder gavnligt, at jeg går bort, thi går jeg ikke bort, kommer Talsmanden ikke til eder; men går jeg bort, så vil jeg sende ham til eder.

Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: It is expedient for you that I depart; for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send him to you.

8 Og når han kommer, skal han overbevise Verden om Synd og om Retfærdighed og om Dom.

And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

9 Om Synd, fordi de ikke tro på mig;

Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 men om Retfærdighed, fordi jeg går til min Fader, og I se mig ikke længer;

Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

11 men om Dom, fordi denne Verdens Fyrste er dømt.

Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

12 Jeg har endnu meget at sige eder; men I kunne ikke bære det nu.

I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now.

13 Men når han, Sandhedens Ånd, kommer, skal han vejlede eder til hele Sandheden; thi han skal ikke tale af sig selv, men hvad som helst han hører, skal han tale, og de kommende Ting skal han forkynde eder.

But, when he, the Spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into all the truth: for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he shall hear, [that] will he speak: and he will show you things to come.

14 Han skal herliggøre mig; thi han skal tage af mit og forkynde eder.

He will glorify me: for he will receive of mine, and will show [it] to you.

15 Alt, hvad Faderen har, er mit; derfor sagde jeg, at han skal tage af mit og forkynde eder.

All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore I said, that he will take of mine, and show [it] to you.

16 Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig længer, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig."

A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.

17 Da sagde nogle af hans Disciple til hverandre: "Hvad er dette, som han siger os: Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig, og: Jeg går hen til Faderen?"

Then said [some] of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?

18 De sagde altså: "Hvad er dette, han siger: Om en liden Stund? Vi forstå ikke, hvad han taler."

They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.

19 Jesus vidste, at de vilde spørge ham, og han sagde til dem: "I spørge hverandre om dette, at jeg sagde: Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig.

Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said to them, Do ye inquire among yourselves of that which I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?

20 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, I skulle græde og jamre, men Verden skal glæde sig; I skulle være bedrøvede, men eders Bedrøvelse skal blive til Glæde.

Verily, verily, I say to you, that ye will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice: and ye will be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

21 Når Kvinden føder, har hun Bedrøvelse, fordi hendes Time er kommen; men når hun har født Barnet, kommer hun ikke mere sin Trængsel i Hu af Glæde over, at et Menneske er født til Verden.

A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.

22 Også I have da vel nu Bedrøvelse, men jeg skal se eder igen, og eders Hjerte skal glædes, og ingen tager eders Glæde fra eder.

And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.

23 Og på den Dag skulle I ikke spørge mig om noget. Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, hvad som helst I bede Faderen om, skal han give eder i mit Navn.

And in that day ye will ask me nothing: Verily, verily, I say to you, Whatever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give [it] you.

24 Hidindtil have I ikke bedt om noget i mit Navn; beder, og I skulle få, for at eders Glæde må blive fuldkommen.

Hitherto ye have asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

25 Dette har jeg talt til eder i Lignelser; der kommer en Time, da jeg ikke mere skal tale til eder i Lignelser, men frit ud forkynde eder om Faderen.

These things have I spoken to you in proverbs: but the time cometh when I shall no more speak to you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly concerning the Father.

26 På den Dag skulle I bede i mit Navn, og jeg siger ikke til eder, at jeg vil bede Faderen for eder;

At that day ye will ask in my name: and I say not to you, that I will pray the Father for you:

27 thi Faderen selv elsker eder, fordi I have elsket mig og troet, at jeg er udgået fra Gud.

For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.

28 Jeg udgik fra Faderen og er kommen til Verden; jeg forlader Verden igen og går til Faderen."

I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

29 Hans Disciple sige til ham: "Se, nu taler du frit ud og siger ingen Lignelse.

His disciples said to him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.

30 Nu vide vi, at du ved alle Ting og ikke har nødig, at nogen spørger dig; desårsag tro vi, at du er udgået fra Gud."

Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest from God.

31 Jesus svarede dem: "Nu tro I!

Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?

32 Se, den Time kommer, og den er kommen, da I skulle adspredes hver til sit og lade mig alene; dog, jeg er ikke alene, thi Faderen er med mig.

Behold, the hour cometh, and is even now come, that ye shall be scattered every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

33 Dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I skulle have Fred i mig. I Verden have I Trængsel; men værer frimodige, jeg har overvundet Verden."

These things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace. In the world ye will have tribulation, but be of good cheer: I have overcome the world.
