Johannes 7
1 Derefter vandrede Jesus omkring i Galilæa; thi han vilde ikke vandre i Judæa, fordi Jøderne søgte at slå ham ihjel.
And, after these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee; for he was not wishing, in Judaea, to be walking, because the Jews were seeking to slay him.
2 Men Jødernes Højtid, Løvsalsfesten, var nær.
But the feast of the Jews was near, that of the pitching of tents.
3 Da sagde hans Brødre til ham: "Drag bort herfra og gå til Judæa, for at også dine Disciple kunne se dine Gerninger, som du gør.
His brethren, therefore, said unto him—Remove hence, and withdraw into Judaea, that, thy disciples also, may view thy works which thou art doing.
4 Thi ingen gør noget i Løndom, når han selv ønsker at være åbenbar; dersom du gør dette, da vis dig for Verden!"
For, no one, anything in secret, doeth, and yet is seeking, himself, to be well-known. If, these things, thou art doing, manifest thyself unto the world.
5 Thi heller ikke hans Brødre troede på ham.
For, not even his brethren, were believing on him.
6 Da siger Jesus til dem: "Min Tid er endnu ikke kommen; men eders Tid er stedse for Hånden.
Jesus, therefore, saith unto them—My season, not yet, is here; but, your season, at anytime, is ready:
7 Verden kan ikke hade eder; men mig hader den, fordi jeg vidner om den, at dens Gerninger ere onde.
The world cannot hate you; but, me, it hateth, because, I, bear witness concerning it, that, the works thereof, are, wicked.
8 Drager I op til Højtiden; jeg drager endnu ikke op til denne Højtid, thi min Tid er endnu ikke fuldkommet."
Ye, go up unto the feast: I, not yet, am coming up unto this feast, because, my season, not yet, hath fully come.
9 Da han havde sagt dette til dem, blev han i Galilæa.
And, these things, having said unto them, he was still abiding in Galilee.
10 Men da hans Brødre vare dragne op til Højtiden, da drog han også selv op, ikke åbenlyst, men lønligt.
But, when his brethren had gone up unto the feast, then, he also, went up, —not openly, but as it were in secret.
11 Da ledte Jøderne efter ham på Højtiden og sagde: "Hvor er han?"
The Jews, therefore, were seeking him in the feast, and were saying—Where is that one?
12 Og der blev mumlet meget om ham iblandt Skarerne; nogle sagde: "Han er en god Mand;" men andre sagde: "Nej, han forfører Mængden."
and there was great, murmuring, about him among the multitudes: some, indeed, were saying—Good, is he! [but], others, were saying—Not so! but he is leading the multitude astray.
13 Dog talte ingen frit om ham af Frygt for Jøderne.
No one, nevertheless, was speaking, openly, about him, because of their fear of the Jews.
14 Men da det allerede var midt i Højtiden. gik Jesus op i Helligdommen og lærte.
Presently, however, the feast being at its height, Jesus went up unto the temple and was teaching.
15 Jøderne undrede sig nu og sagde: "Hvorledes kan denne have Lærdom, da han ikke er oplært?"
The Jews, therefore, began to marvel, saying—How, doth this one know, letters, not having learned?
16 Da svarede Jesus dem og sagde: "Min Lære er ikke min, men hans, som sendte mig.
Jesus, therefore, answered them, and said—My teaching, is not mine, but his who sent me.
17 Dersom nogen vil gøre hans Villie, skal han erkende, om Læren er fra Gud, eller jeg taler af mig selv.
If any one intend, his will, to do, he shall get to know concerning the teaching—whether it is, of God, or, I, from myself, am speaking,
18 Den, der taler af sig selv, søger sin egen Ære; men den, som søger hans Ære, der sendte ham, han er sanddru, og der er ikke Uret i ham.
He that, from himself, doth speak, his own glory, is seeking: he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, the same, is, true, and, injustice, in him, is there none.
19 Har ikke Moses givet eder Loven? Og ingen af eder holder Loven. Hvorfor søge I at slå mig ihjel?"
Did not, Moses, give you the law? And yet, not one of you, doeth the law!—Why, seek ye, to slay, me?
20 Mængden svarede: "Du er besat; hvem søger at slå dig ihjel?"
The multitude answered—A demon, thou hast: Who, is seeking, to slay, thee?
21 Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: "Een Gerning gjorde jeg, og I undre eder alle derover.
Jesus answered, and said unto them—One work, I did, and ye, all, are marvelling:
22 Moses har givet eder Omskærelsen, (ikke at den er fra Moses, men fra Fædrene) og I omskære et Menneske på en Sabbat.
For this cause, Moses, hath given you, circumcision, —not that, of Moses, it is, but of the fathers; —and, on Sabbath, ye circumcise a man.
23 Dersom et Menneske får Omskærelse på en Sabbat, for at Mose Lov ikke skal brydes, ere I da vrede på mig, fordi jeg har gjort et helt Menneske rask på en Sabbat?
If, circumcision, a man receiveth, on Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, with me, are ye bitter as gall, because, a whole man, I made, well, on Sabbath?
24 Dømmer ikke efter Skinnet, men dømmer en retfærdig Dom!"
Be not judging according to appearance, but, just judgment, be judging,
25 Da sagde nogle af dem fra Jerusalem: "Er det ikke ham, som de søge at slå ihjel?
So then, some of them of Jerusalem were saying—Is not, this, he whom they are seeking to kill?
26 Og se, han taler frit, og de sige intet til ham; mon Rådsherrerne virkelig skulde have erkendt, at han er Kristus?
And yet, see! with freedom of speech, he is talking, and, nothing, unto him, do they say: —Have the rulers perhaps come to know, of a truth, that, this, is, the Christ?
27 Dog vi vide, hvorfra denne er; men når Kristus kommer, kender ingen, hvorfra han er."
But, as for this one, we know whence he is; The Christ, however, whensoever he shall come, no one, getteth to know whence he is.
28 Derfor råbte Jesus, idet han lærte i Helligdommen, og sagde: "Både kende I mig og vide, hvorfra jeg er! Og af mig selv er jeg ikke kommen, men han, som sendte mig, er sand, han, hvem I ikke kende.
Jesus, therefore, cried aloud in the temple, teaching, and saying—Both me, ye know, and ye know whence I am, —and yet, of myself, have I not come, but he is real, who sent me, whom, ye, know not.
29 Jeg kender ham; thi jeg er fra ham, og han har udsendt mig."
I, know him, because, from him, I am, and, he, sent me forth.
30 De søgte da at gribe ham; og ingen lagde Hånd på ham, thi hans Time var endnu ikke kommen.
They were seeking therefore to seize him; and yet no one laid on him his hand, because, not yet, had come his hour.
31 Men mange af Folket troede på ham, og de sagde: "Når Kristus kommer, mon han da skal gøre flere Tegn, end denne har gjort?"
But, from amongst the multitude, many, believed on him, and were saying—The Christ, whensoever he cometh, greater signs, will he do, than those which, this one, did?
32 Farisæerne hørte, at Mængden mumlede dette om ham; og Ypperstepræsterne og Farisæerne sendte Tjenere ud for at gribe ham.
The Pharisees hearkened unto the multitude murmuring concerning him these things; and the High-priests and the Pharisees sent forth officers, that they might seize him.
33 Da sagde Jesus: "Endnu en liden Tid er jeg hos eder, så går jeg bort til den, som sendte mig.
Jesus, therefore, said—Yet a little time, I am, with you, and withdraw unto him that sent me:
34 I skulle lede efter mig og ikke finde mig, og der, hvor jeg er, kunne I ikke komme."
Ye shall seek me, and not find me, and, where, I, am, ye, cannot come.
35 Da sagde Jøderne til hverandre: "Hvor vil han gå hen, siden vi ikke skulle finde ham? Mon han vil gå til dem, som ere adspredte iblandt Grækerne, og lære Grækerne?
The Jews, therefore, said unto themselves—Whither, is, this one, about to go, that we shall not find him? Unto the dispersion of the Greeks, is he about to go, and teach the Greeks?
36 Hvad er det for et Ord, han siger: I skulle lede efter mig og ikke finde mig, og der, hvor jeg er, kunne I ikke komme?"
What, is this which he said: Ye shall seek me and not find me, and, where, I, am, ye, cannot come?
37 Men på den sidste, den store Højtidsdag stod Jesus og råbte og sagde: "Om nogen tørster, han komme til mig og drikke!
Now, on the last—the great—day of the feast, Jesus was standing, and he cried aloud, saying—If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink:
38 Den, som tror på mig, af hans Liv skal der, som Skriften har sagt, flyde levende Vandstrømme:"
He that believeth on me—just as said the Scripture, —River, from within him, shall flow, of living water.
39 Men dette sagde han om den Ånd, som de, der troede på ham, skulde få; thi den Helligånd var der ikke endnu, fordi Jesus endnu ikke var herliggjort.
Now, this, spake he concerning the Spirit which they who believed on him were about to receive; for, not yet, was there Spirit, because, Jesus, not yet, was glorified!
40 Nogle af Mængden, som hørte disse Ord, sagde nu: "Dette er sandelig Profeten."
Some from amongst the multitude, therefore, having hearkened unto these words, were saying—This, is, in truth, the prophet.
41 Andre sagde: "Dette er Kristus;" men andre sagde: "Mon da Kristus kommer fra Galilæa?
Others, were saying—This, is, the Christ. But, others, were saying—Out of Galilee, is, the Christ, to come?
42 Har ikke Skriften sagt, at Kristus kommer af Davids Sæd og fra Bethlehem, den Landsby, hvor David var?"
Hath not the Scripture said: Of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was, cometh the Christ?
43 Således blev der Splid iblandt Mængden om ham.
A division, therefore, arose in the multitude, because of him.
44 Men nogle af dem vilde gribe ham; dog lagde ingen Hånd på ham.
Certain, indeed, from among them, were wishing to seize him; but, no one, thrust upon him his hands.
45 Tjenerne kom nu til Ypperstepræsterne og Farisæerne, og disse sagde til dem: "Hvorfor have I ikke ført ham herhen?"
So then the officers came unto the High-priests and Pharisees, and, they, said unto them—For what cause, have ye not brought him?
46 Tjenerne svarede: "Aldrig har noget Menneske talt således som dette Menneske."
The officers answered—Never, man spake thus!
47 Da svarede Farisæerne dem: "Ere også I forførte?
The Pharisees, therefore, answered them—Surely, ye also, have not been led astray?
48 Mon nogen af Rådsherrerne har troet på ham, eller nogen af Farisæerne?
Surely, none of the rulers, hath believed in him, nor of the Pharisees?
49 Men denne Hob, som ikke kender Loven, er forbandet."
But, this multitude, that take no note of the law, are, laid under a curse.
50 Nikodemus, han, som var kommen til ham om Natten og var en af dem, sagde til dem:
Nicodemus saith unto them—he that came unto him formerly, being, one, from among them—
51 "Mon vor Lov dømmer et Menneske, uden at man først forhører ham og får at vide, hvad han gør?"
Surely, our law, doth not judge the man, unless it hear first from him, and get to know what he is doing?
52 De svarede og sagde til ham: "Er også du fra Galilæa? Ransag og se, at der ikke fremstår nogen Profet fra Galilæa."
They answered and said unto him—Surely, thou also, art not, of Galilee? Search and see! That, out of Galilee, a prophet is not to arise.
53 Og de gik hver til sit Hus.
And they went, each unto his own house;
