Johannes 8
1 Men Jesus gik til Oliebjerget.
But Jesus went to the mount of Olives;
2 og årle om Morgenen kom han igen i Helligdommen, og hele Folket kom til ham; og han satte sig og lærte dem.
and returned early in the morning into the temple, and all the people came to Him: and He sat down, and taught them.
3 Men de skriftkloge og Farisæerne føre en Kvinde til ham, greben i Hor, og stille hende frem i Midten.
And the scribes and pharisees brought to Him a woman taken in adultery;
4 Og de sige til ham: "Mester! denne Kvinde er greben i Hor på fersk Gerning.
and setting her in the midst, they said to Him, "This woman was caught in the very act, committing adultery.
5 Men Moses bød os i Loven, at sådanne skulle stenes; hvad siger nu du?"
Now Moses in the law has commanded us that such women should be stoned, but what sayest Thou?"
6 Men dette sagde de for at friste ham, for at de kunde have noget at anklage ham for. Men Jesus bøjede sig ned og skrev med Fingeren på Jorden.
This they said to tempt Him, that they might have something to accuse Him of. But Jesus stooping down, wrote with his finger upon the ground.
7 Men da de bleve ved at spørge ham, rettede han sig op og sagde til dem: "Den iblandt eder, som er uden Synd, kaste først Stenen på hende!"
And as they continued asking Him, He raised himself up and said unto them, "Let him that is without sin among you, first cast a stone at her."
8 Og han bøjede sig atter ned og skrev på Jorden.
Then He stooped down again and wrote on the ground.
9 Men da de hørte det, gik de bort, den ene efter den anden, fra de ældste til de yngste, og Jesus blev alene tilbage med Kvinden, som stod der i Midten.
But when they heard his answer, being convicted by their own conscience, they went out one by one, beginning at the elder, even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst of the people.
10 Men da Jesus rettede sig op og ingen så uden Kvinden, sagde han til hende: "Kvinde! hvor ere de henne? Var der ingen, som fordømte dig?,"
Then Jesus rising up, and seeing none but the woman, said unto her, Where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 Men hun sagde: "Herre! ingen." Da sagde Jesus: "Heller ikke jeg fordømmer dig; gå bort, og synd ikke mere!"
And she said, None, Lord. Then said Jesus unto her, Neither do I condemn thee, Go thy way and sin no more.
12 Jesus talte da atter til dem og sagde: "Jeg er Verdens Lys; den, som følger mig, skal ikke vandre i Mørket, men have Livets Lys."
Then spake Jesus again to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he, that followeth me, shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 Da sagde Farisæerne til ham: "Du vidner om dig selv; dit Vidnesbyrd er ikke sandt."
The pharisees therefore said to Him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy testimony is not true.
14 Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: "Om jeg end vidner om mig selv. er mit Vidnesbyrd sandt; thi jeg ved, hvorfra jeg kom, og hvor jeg går hen; men I vide ikke, hvorfra jeg kommer, og hvor jeg går hen.
Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear witness of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I come, nor whither I go.
15 I dømme efter Kødet; jeg dømmer ingen.
Ye judge according to the flesh, but I judge no man as yet:
16 Men om jeg også dømmer, er min Dom sand; thi det er ikke mig alene, men mig og Faderen, han, som sendte mig.
though if I should judge, my judgement is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father that sent me.
17 Men også i eders Lov er der skrevet, at to Menneskers Vidnesbyrd er sandt.
And it is written in your own law, that the testimony of two persons is valid.
18 Jeg er den, der vidner om mig selv, og Faderen, som sendte mig, vidner om mig."
Now I am one, who bear witness of myself; and the Father, who sent me, beareth witness of me.
19 Derfor sagde de til ham: "Hvor er din Fader?" Jesus svarede: "I kende hverken mig eller min Fader; dersom I kendte mig, kendte I også min Fader."
Then said they unto Him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also.
20 Disse Ord talte Jesus ved Tempelblokken, da han lærte i Helligdommen; og ingen greb ham, fordi hans Time endnu ikke var kommen.
These words spake Jesus in the treasury, when He was teaching in the temple: and no one laid hands on Him, for his hour was not yet come.
21 Da sagde han atter til dem: "Jeg går bort, og I skulle lede efter mig, og I skulle dø i eders Synd; hvor jeg går hen, kunne I ikke komme."
Jesus therefore said unto them again, "I am going away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin: where I go ye cannot come."
22 Da sagde Jøderne: "Mon han vil slå sig selv ihjel, siden han siger: Hvor jeg går hen, kunne I ikke komme?"
The Jews therefore said, What! will He kill himself; that He says, where I am going, ye cannot come?
23 Og han sagde til dem: "I ere nedenfra, jeg er ovenfra; I ere af denne Verden, jeg er ikke af denne Verden.
And He said unto them, Ye are from beneath, I am from above: ye are of this world, I am not of this world.
24 Derfor har jeg sagt eder, at I skulle dø i eders Synder; thi dersom I ikke tro, at det er mig, skulle I dø i eders Synder."
Therefore I said unto you, that ye shall die in your sins; for if ye believe not that I am the Messiah, ye shall die in your sins.
25 De sagde da til ham: "Hvem er du?" Og Jesus sagde til dem: "Just det, som jeg siger eder.
Then said they to Him, Who art thou? And Jesus answered them, Even the same that I told you at first.
26 Jeg har meget at tale og dømme om eder; men den, som sendte mig, er sanddru, og hvad jeg har hørt af ham, det taler jeg til Verden."
I have many things to say and to judge concerning you: but I only say, He that sent me is true, and I declare to the world those things, which I have heard from Him.
27 De forstode ikke, at han talte til dem om Faderen.
But they did not know that He spake unto them of the Father.
28 Da sagde Jesus til dem: "Når I få ophøjet Menneskesønnen, da skulle I kende, at det er mig, og at jeg gør intet af mig selv; men som min Fader har lært mig, således taler jeg.
Jesus therefore said unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then ye shall know that I am He, and that I do nothing of myself, but as my Father hath instructed me, I speak these things.
29 Og han, som sendte mig, er med mig; han har ikke ladet mig alene, fordi jeg; gør altid det, som er ham til Behag."
And He that sent me, is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him.
30 Da han talte dette, troede mange på ham.
As He spake these words many believed on Him.
31 Jesus sagde da til de Jøder, som vare komne til Tro på ham: "Dersom I blive i mit Ord, ere I sandelig mine Disciple,
Therefore said Jesus to the Jews that believed on Him, If ye continue in my word, ye are indeed my disciples.
32 og I skulle erkende Sandheden, og Sandheden skal frigøre eder."
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 De svarede ham: "Vi ere Abrahams Sæd og have aldrig været nogens Trælle; hvorledes siger du da: I skulle vorde frie?"
They answered Him, We are the seed of Abraham, and never were slaves to any one, how then dost thou say, Ye shall be made free?
34 Jesus svarede dem: "Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, hver den, som gør Synden, er Syndens Træl.
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily I say unto you, whosoever maketh a practice of sin, is the servant of sin.
Now the servant does not continue always in the family: but the Son abideth always. (aiōn g165)
36 Dersom da Sønnen får frigjort eder, skulle I være virkelig frie.
If therefore the Son make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 Jeg ved, at I ere Abrahams Sæd; men I søge at slå mig ihjel, fordi min Tale ikke finder Rum hos eder.
I know that ye are the seed of Abraham, but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 Jeg taler det, som jeg har set hos min Fader; så gøre også I det, som I have hørt af eders Fader."
I speak that which I have seen with my Father, and ye do what ye have seen with your father.
39 De svarede og sagde til ham: "Vor Fader er Abraham." Jesus sagde til dem: "Dersom I vare Abrahams Børn, gjorde I Abrahams Gerninger.
They answered Him, Abraham is our father, Jesus replied, If ye were the children of Abraham, ye would do the works of Abraham:
40 Men nu søge I at slå mig ihjel, et Menneske, der har sagt eder Sandheden, som jeg har hørt af Gud; dette gjorde Abraham ikke.
but now ye seek to kill me, who have told you the truth which I have heard from God: Abraham did not thus.
41 I gøre eders Faders Gerninger." De sagde til ham: "Vi ere ikke avlede i Hor; vi have een Fader, Gud."
But ye do the works of your father. Then said they unto Him, We are not born of fornication, we have one Father, even God.
42 Jesus sagde til dem: "Dersom Gud var eders Fader, da elskede I mig; thi jeg er udgået og kommen fra Gud; thi jeg er heller ikke kommen af mig selv, men han har udsendt mig.
Jesus said unto them, If God were your father, ye would love me: for I came forth, and do come, from God; neither came I of myself, but He sent me.
43 Hvorfor forstå I ikke min Tale? fordi I ikke kunne høre mit Ord.
And why do ye not understand my language, but because ye cannot bear my doctrine?
44 I ere af den Fader Djævelen, og eders Faders Begæringer ville I gøre. Han var en Manddraber fra Begyndelsen af, og han står ikke i Sandheden; thi Sandhed er ikke i ham. Når han taler Løgn, taler han af sit eget; thi han er en Løgner og Løgnens Fader.
Ye are of your father the devil, and are bent upon doing the lusts of your father: he was a murderer from the beginning, and continued not in the truth: for there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh like himself, for he is a liar, and the father of such.
45 Men mig tro I ikke, fordi jeg siger Sandheden.
And because I say the truth, ye believe me not. Which of you convicteth me of sin?
46 Hvem af eder kan overbevise mig om nogen Synd? Siger jeg Sandhed, hvorfor tro I mig da ikke?
And if I speak truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 Den, som er af Gud, hører Guds Ord; derfor høre I ikke, fordi I ere ikke af Gud."
He, that is of God, receiveth the words of God; but ye therefore receive them not, because ye are not of God.
48 Jøderne svarede og sagde til ham: "Sige vi ikke med Rette, at du er en Samaritan og er besat?"
The Jews therefore answered and said unto Him. Do we not rightly say, that thou art a Samaritan, and art possessed by a demon?
49 Jesus svarede: "Jeg er ikke besat, men jeg ærer min Fader, og I vanære mig.
Jesus answered I am not possessed by a demon, but I honour my Father, though ye dishonour me.
50 Men jeg søger ikke min Ære; der er den, som søger den og dømmer.
And I seek not my own glory; there is One that seeketh it, and judgeth.
51 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, dersom nogen holder mit Ord, skal han i al Evighed ikke se Døden." (aiōn g165)
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If any one keep my word, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
52 Jøderne sagde til ham: "Nu vide vi, at du et besat; Abraham døde og Profeterne, og du siger: Dersom nogen holder mit Ord, han skal i al Evighed ikke smage Døden. (aiōn g165)
The Jews therefore said unto Him, Now we are sure that thou art possessed by a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets too; and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he shall never taste of death: art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? (aiōn g165)
53 Mon du er større end vor Fader Abraham, som jo døde? også Profeterne døde; hvem gør du dig selv til?"
and the prophets are dead: whom dost thou pretend to be?
54 Jesus svarede: "Dersom jeg ærer mig selv, er min Ære intet; det er min Fader, som ærer mig, han, om hvem I sige, at han er eders Gud.
Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honor is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom ye say that He is your God.
55 Og I have ikke kendt ham, men jeg kender ham. Og dersom jeg siger: "Jeg kender ham ikke," da bliver jeg en Løgner ligesom I; men jeg kender ham og holder hans Ord.
And yet ye know him not; but I know Him: and if I should say, That I know Him not, I shall be like you, a liar: but I know Him, and obey his word.
56 Abraham, eders Fader, frydede sig til at se min Dag, og han så den og glædede sig."
Your father Abraham longed to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
57 Da sagde Jøderne til ham: "Du er endnu ikke halvtredsindstyve År gammel, og du har set Abraham?"
Then said the Jews unto Him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus sagde til dem: "Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, førend Abraham blev til, har jeg været."
Jesus said unto them, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Så toge de Sten for at kaste på ham; men Jesus skjulte sig og gik ud af Helligdommen.
Therefore they took up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus concealed Himself, and went out of the temple, through the midst of them, and so passed on.
