Lukas 7
1 Men da han havde fuldendt alle sine Ord i Folkets Påhør, gik han ind i Kapernaum.
Now when He concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered Capernaum.
2 Men en Høvedsmands Tjener, som denne holdt meget af, var syg og nær ved at dø.
Well a certain centurion's slave, who was valuable to him, was sick and about to die.
3 men da han hørte om Jesus, sendte han nogle af Jødernes Ældste til ham og bad ham om, at han vilde komme og helbrede hans Tjener.
So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, asking Him to come and rescue his slave.
4 Men da de kom til Jesus, bade de ham indtrængende og sagde: "Han er vel værd, at du gør dette for ham;
And when they came to Jesus they started pleading earnestly with Him, saying that the one for whom He would do this was worthy,
5 thi han elsker vort Folk, og han har bygget Synagogen for os."
“Because he loves our nation, and he himself built our synagogue.”
6 Og Jesus gik med dem. Men da han allerede ikke var langt fra Huset, sendte Høvedsmanden nogle Venner og lod ham sige: "Herre! umag dig ikke; thi jeg er ikke værdig til, at du skal gå ind under mit Tag.
So Jesus went with them. But when He was no longer far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him: “Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy that you should come under my roof.
7 Derfor agtede jeg heller ikke mig selv værdig til at komme til dig; men sig det med et Ord, så bliver min Dreng helbredt.
In fact I did not even consider myself worthy to come to you. Just say a word and my servant will be healed;
8 Jeg er jo selv et Menneske, som står under Øvrighed og har Stridsmænd under mig; og siger jeg til den ene: Gå! så går han; og til den anden: Kom! så kommer han; og til min Tjener: Gør dette! så gør han det."
because I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. I say to one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does.”
9 Men da Jesus hørte dette, forundrede han sig over ham; og han vendte sig om og sagde til Skaren, som fulgte ham: "Jeg siger eder, end ikke i Israel har jeg fundet så stor en Tro."
Well upon hearing these things Jesus marveled at him, and turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith!”
10 Og da de, som vare udsendte, kom tilbage til Huset, fandt de den syge Tjener sund.
When those who were sent returned to the house they found that the slave who had been sick was well.
11 Og det skete Dagen derefter, at han gik til en By, som hed Nain, og der gik mange af hans Disciple og en stor Skare med ham.
Now it happened on the next day that He went to a town called Nain, and many of His disciples went with Him, also a large crowd.
12 Men da han nærmede sig Byens Port, se, da blev en død båren ud, som var sin Moders enbårne Søn, og hun var Enke; og en stor Skare fra Byen gik med hende.
But as He approached the town gate, mercy, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; a large crowd from the town was with her.
13 Og da Herren så hende, ynkedes han inderligt over hende og sagde til hende: "Græd ikke!"
When the Lord saw her He had compassion on her and said to her, “Don't cry!”
14 Og han trådte til og rørte ved Båren; men de, som bare, stode stille, og han sagde: "du unge Mand, jeg siger dig, stå op!"
And advancing He took hold of the bier and the bearers stood still. Then He said, “Young man, to you I say, get up!”
15 Og den døde rejste sig op og begyndte at tale; og han gav ham til hans Moder.
So the dead man sat up and began to talk! Yes, He gave him back to his mother.
16 Men Frygt betog alle, og de priste Gud og sagde: "Der er en stor Profet oprejst iblandt os, og Gud har besøgt sit Folk."
Fear took hold of all, and they began glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited His people!”
17 Og denne Tale om ham kom ud i hele Judæa og i hele det omliggende Land.
And this report about Him went throughout Judea, as well as all the surrounding region.
18 Og Johannes's Disciple fortalte ham om alt dette. Og Johannes kaldte to af sine Disciple til sig
Then the disciples of John informed him about all these things.
19 og sendte dem til Herren og lod sige: "Er du den, som kommer, eller skulle vi vente en anden?"
And summoning a certain two of his disciples, John sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the Coming One, or should we look for another?”
20 Og da Mændene kom til ham, sagde de: "Johannes Døberen har sendt os til dig og lader sige: Er du den, som kommer, eller skulle vi vente en anden?"
When the men had come to Him, they said: “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you the Coming One, or should we look for another?’”
21 I den samme Time helbredte han mange for Sygdomme og Plager og onde Ånder og skænkede mange blinde Synet.
Well in that very hour He healed many from diseases and torments and malignant spirits, and to many blind He granted sight.
22 Og han svarede og sagde til dem: "Går hen, og forkynder Johannes de Ting, som I have set og hørt: Blinde se, lamme gå, spedalske renses, døve høre, døde stå op, Evangeliet forkyndes for fattige;
So in answer Jesus said to them: “Go and report to John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind regain sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, dead are raised, the poor are evangelized.
23 og salig er den, som ikke forarges på mig."
And, blessed is he who does not take offense at me!”
24 Men da Johannes's Sendebud vare gåede bort, begyndte han at sige til Skarerne om Johannes: "Hvad gik I ud i Ørkenen at skue? Et Rør, som bevæges hid og did af Vinden?
Now when John's messengers had departed, He began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to observe, a reed being shaken by the wind?
25 Eller hvad gik I ud at se? Et Menneske, iført bløde Klæder? Se, de, som leve i prægtige Klæder og i Vellevned, ere i Kongsgårdene.
But what did you go out to see, a man clothed in soft garments? Really, those with gorgeous apparel and living in luxury are in palaces.
26 Eller hvad gik I ud at se? En Profet? Ja, siger jeg eder, endog mere end en Profet!
But what did you go out to see, a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
27 Han er den, om hvem der er skrevet: Se, jeg sender min Engel for dit Ansigt, han skal berede din Vej foran dig.
This is he about whom it is written: ‘Take note, I am sending my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
28 Jeg siger eder: Iblandt dem, som ere fødte af Kvinder, er ingen større Profet end Johannes; men den mindste i Guds Rige er større end han.
Further, I tell you that among those born of women there is no greater prophet than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 Og hele Folket, som hørte ham, endog Tolderne, gav Gud Ret, idet de bleve døbte med Johannes's Dåb.
(When all the people, including the tax collectors, heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John's baptism.
30 Men Farisæerne og de lovkyndige have foragtet Guds Råd med dem selv, idet de ikke bleve døbte af ham.
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God for themselves, not having been baptized by him.)
31 Ved hvem skal jeg da ligne denne Slægts Mennesker? og hvem ligne de?
“To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and to what are they similar?
32 De ligne Børn, som sidde på Torvet og råbe til hverandre og sige: Vi blæste på Fløjte for eder, og I dansede ikke, vi sang Klagesange for eder, og I græd ikke.
They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying, ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we mourned to you, and you did not cry.’
33 Thi Johannes Døberen kom, som hverken spiste Brød eller drak Vin, og I sige: Han er besat.
Because John the Baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’
34 Menneskesønnen kom, som spiser og drikker, og I sige: Se, en Frådser og en Vindranker, Tolderes og Synderes Ven!
The Son of the Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Just look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Dog Visdommen er retfærdiggjort ved alle sine Børn!"
Still, by all her children wisdom is justified.”
36 Men en af Farisæerne bad ham om, at han vilde spise med ham; og han gik ind i Farisæerens Hus og satte sig til Bords.
Then one of the Pharisees invited Him to eat with Him, so He entered the Pharisee's house and reclined.
37 Og se, der var en Kvinde, som var en Synderinde i Byen; da hun fik at vide, at han sad til Bords i Farisæerens Hus, kom hun med en Alabastkrukke med Salve;
But then, a woman in the town who was a sinner, when she found out that He was reclining in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster flask of perfume,
38 og hun stillede sig bag ved ham, ved hans Fødder og græd og begyndte at væde hans Fødder med sine Tårer og aftørrede dem med sit Hovedhår og kyssede hans Fødder og salvede dem med Salven.
and as she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and kept wiping them with the hair of her head; and she kept kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume.
39 Men da Farisæeren, som havde indbudt ham, så det, sagde han ved sig selv: "Dersom denne var en Profet, vidste han, hvem og hvordan en Kvinde denne er, som rører ved ham, at hun er en Synderinde."
Now as the Pharisee who had invited Him observed this, he was saying to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him, including what sort of woman she is—because she is a sinner!”
40 Og Jesus tog til Orde og sagde til ham: "Simon! jeg har noget at sige dig." Men han siger: "Mester, sig frem!"
So Jesus reacted by saying to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he said, “Teacher, say on.”
41 "En Mand, som udlånte Penge, havde to Skyldnere; den ene var fem Hundrede Denarer skyldig. men den anden halvtredsindstyve.
“A certain creditor had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 Da de ikke havde noget at betale med, eftergav han dem det begge. Hvem af dem vil nu elske ham mest?"
And when they had no way to repay, he freely forgave them both. Now tell me, which of them will love him more?”
43 Simon svarede og sagde: "Jeg holder for, den, hvem han eftergav mest?" Men han sagde til ham: "Du dømte ret."
So Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one to whom he forgave more.” And He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
44 Og han vendte sig imod Kvinden og sagde til Simon: "Ser du denne Kvinde? Jeg kom ind i dit Hus; du gav mig ikke Vand til mine Fødder; men hun vædede mine Fødder med sine Tårer og aftørrede dem med sit Hår.
Then He turned toward the woman and said to Simon: “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Du gav mig intet Kys; men hun ophørte ikke med at kysse mine Fødder, fra jeg kom herind.
You gave me no kiss, but she has not stopped kissing my feet since the time I came in.
46 Du salvede ikke mit Hoved med Olie; men hun salvede mine Fødder med Salve.
You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume.
47 Derfor siger jeg dig: Hendes mange Synder ere hende forladte, eftersom hun elskede meget; men den, hvem lidet forlades, elsker lidet."
For this reason, I say to you, her many sins have been forgiven, because she loved much; but to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”
48 Men han sagde til hende: "Dine Synder ere forladte!"
Then He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 Og de, som sade til Bords med ham, begyndte at sige ved sig selv: "Hvem er denne, som endog forlader Synder?"
The other recliners began to say within themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Men han sagde til Kvinden: "Din Tro har frelst dig, gå bort med Fred!"
Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go into peace.”
