Lukas 9
1 Men han sammenkaldte de tolv og gav dem Magt og Myndighed over alle de onde Ånder og til at helbrede Sygdomme.
Jesus called the Twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all demons, as well as to cure diseases.
2 Og han sendte dem ud for at prædike Guds Rige og helbrede de syge.
He sent them out as his messengers, to proclaim the kingdom of God, and to work cures.
3 Og han sagde til dem: "Tager intet med på Vejen, hverken Stav eller Taske eller Brød eller Penge, ej heller skal nogen have to Kjortler.
“Do not,” he said to them, “take anything for your journey; not even a staff, or a bag, or bread, or any silver, or a change of clothes with you.
4 Og hvor I komme ind i et Hus, der skulle I blive og derfra drage bort.
Whatever house you go to stay in, remain there, and leave from that place.
5 Og hvor som helst de ikke modtage eder, fra den By skulle I gå ud og endog ryste Støvet af eders Fødder til Vidnesbyrd imod dem."
If people do not welcome you, as you leave that town, shake even the dust off your feet, as a protest against them.”
6 Men de gik ud og droge fra Landsby til Landsby, idet de forkyndte Evangeliet og helbredte alle Vegne.
Then they set out and went from village to village, telling the good news and curing people everywhere.
7 Men Fjerdingsfyrsten Herodes hørte alt det, som skete; og han var tvivlrådig, fordi nogle sagde, at Johannes var oprejst fra de døde;
Herod the ruler heard of all that was happening, and was perplexed, because it was said by some that John must be risen from the dead.
8 men nogle, at Elias havde vist sig; men andre, at en af de gamle Profeter var opstanden.
Some again said that Elijah had appeared, and others that one of the old prophets had risen again.
9 Men Herodes sagde: "Johannes har jeg ladet halshugge; men hvem er denne, om hvem jeg hører sådanne Ting?" Og han søgte at få ham at se.
But Herod himself said, “John I beheaded; but who is this of whom I hear such things?” And he endeavored to see him.
10 Og Apostlene kom tilbage og fortalte ham, hvor store Ting de havde gjort. Og han tog dem med sig og drog bort afsides til en By, som kaldes Bethsajda.
When the apostles returned, they related to Jesus all that they had done. Then Jesus went privately to a town called Bethsaida, taking the apostles with him.
11 Men da Skarerne fik det at vide, fulgte de efter ham; og han tog imod dem og talte til dem om Guds Rige og helbredte dem, som trængte til Lægedom.
But the people recognized him and followed him in crowds; and Jesus welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, while he cured those who were in need of help.
12 Men Dagen begyndte at hælde. Og de tolv kom hen og sagde til ham: "Lad Skaren gå bort, for at de kunne gå herfra til de omliggende Landsbyer og Gårde og få Herberge og finde Føde; thi her ere vi på et øde Sted."
The day was drawing to a close, when the twelve came up to him, and said, “Send the crowd away, so that they may make their way to the villages and farms around about, and find themselves lodgings and provisions, for we are in a lonely spot here.”
13 Men han sagde til dem: "Giver I dem at spise!"Men de sagde: "Vi have ikke mere end fem Brød og to Fisk, med mindre vi skulle gå bort og købe Mad til hele denne Mængde."
But Jesus said, “It is for you to give them something to eat.” “We have not more than five loaves and two fish,” they answered. “Unless indeed we are to go and buy food for all these people.”
14 De vare nemlig omtrent fem Tusinde Mænd. Men han sagde til sine Disciple: "Lader dem sætte sig ned i Hobe, halvtredsindstyve i hver."
(For the men among them were about five thousand.) “Get them seated in companies,” was his reply, “about fifty in each.”
15 Og de gjorde så og lode dem alle sætte sig ned.
This they did, and got all the people seated.
16 Men han tog de fem Brød og de to Fisk, så op til Himmelen og velsignede dem, og han brød dem og gav sine Disciple dem at lægge dem for Skaren.
Taking the five loaves and the two fish, Jesus looked up to heaven and said the blessing over them. Then he broke them in pieces, and gave them to his disciples to set before the people.
17 Og de spiste og bleve alle mætte; og det, som de fik tilovers af Stykker, blev opsamlet, tolv Kurve.
Everyone had sufficient to eat, and what was left of the broken pieces was picked up – twelve baskets.
18 Og det skete, medens han bad, vare hans Disciple alene hos ham; og han spurgte dem og sagde: "Hvem sige Skarerne, at jeg er?"
Afterward, when Jesus was alone, praying, his disciples joined him, and he asked them this question – “Who do the people say that I am?”
19 Men de svarede og sagde: "Johannes Døberen; men andre: Elias; men andre: En af de gamle Profeter er opstanden."
“John the Baptist,” was their answer. “Others, however, say that you are Elijah, while others say that one of the old prophets has risen again.”
20 Og han sagde til dem: "Men I hvem sige I, at jeg er?" Og Peter svarede og sagde: "Guds Kristus."
“But you,” he went on, “who do you say that I am?” And to this Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”
21 Men han bød dem strengt ikke at sige dette til nogen,
Jesus, however, strictly charged them not to say this to anyone;
22 idet han sagde: "Menneskesønnen skal lide meget og forkastes af de Ældste og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge og ihjelslås og oprejses på den tredje Dag."
he told them that the Son of Man must undergo much suffering, and be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and teachers of the Law, and be put to death, and rise on the third day.
23 Men han sagde til alle: "Vil nogen komme efter mig, han fornægte sig selv og tage sit Kors op daglig og følge mig;
And to all present he said, “If any one wishes to walk in my steps, they must renounce self, and take up their cross daily, and follow me.
24 thi den, som vil frelse sit Liv. skal miste det; men den, som mister sit Liv for min Skyld, han skal frelse det.
For whoever wishes to save their life will lose it, and whoever, for my sake, loses his life – that person will save it.
25 Thi hvad gavner det et Menneske, om han har vundet den hele Verden, men mistet sig selv eller bødet med sig selv?
What good does it do someone if, when they has gained the whole world, they has lost or forfeited themselves?
26 Thi den, som skammer sig ved mig og mine Ord, ved ham skal Menneskesønnen skamme sig, når han kommer i sin og Faderens og de hellige Engles Herlighed.
Whoever is ashamed of me and of my teaching, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them, when he comes in his glory and the glory of the father and of the holy angels.
27 Men sandelig, siger jeg eder: Der er nogle af dem, som stå her. der ingenlunde skulle smage Døden. førend de se Guds Rige."
Indeed, I tell you, some who are standing before me will not know death, until they have seen the kingdom of God.”
28 Men det skete omtrent otte Dage efter denne Tale, at han tog Peter og Johannes og Jakob med sig og gik op på Bjerget for at bede.
About eight days after speaking these words, Jesus went up the mountain to pray, taking with him Peter, John, and James.
29 Og det skete, medens han bad, da blev hans Ansigts Udseende anderledes, og hans Klædebon blev hvidt og strålende.
As he was praying, the aspect of his face was changed, and his clothing became a dazzling white.
30 Og se, to Mænd talte med ham, og det var Moses og Elias,
And all at once two men were talking with Jesus; they were Moses and Elijah,
31 som bleve set i Herlighed og talte om hans Udgang, som han skulde fuldbyrde i Jerusalem.
who appeared in a glorified state, and spoke of his departure, which was destined to take place at Jerusalem.
32 Men Peter og de, som vare med ham, vare betyngede af Søvn; men da de vågnede op, så de hans Herlighed og de to Mænd, som stode hos ham.
Peter and his companions had been overpowered by sleep but, suddenly becoming wide awake, they saw Jesus glorified and the two men who were standing beside him.
33 Og det skete, da disse skiltes fra ham, sagde Peter til Jesus: "Mester! det er godt, at vi ere her; og lader os gøre tre Hytter, en til dig og en til Moses og en til Elias;" men han vidste ikke, hvad han sagde.
And, as Moses and Elijah were passing away from Jesus, Peter exclaimed, “Sir, it is good to be here; let us make three tents, one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” He did not know what he was saying;
34 Men idet han sagde dette, kom en Sky og overskyggede dem; men de frygtede, da de kom ind i Skyen.
and, while he was speaking, a cloud came down and enveloped them; and they were afraid, as they passed into the cloud;
35 Og der kom fra Skyen en Røst, som sagde: "Denne er min Søn, den udvalgte, hører ham!"
and from the cloud came a voice which said – “This is my Son, the Chosen One; him you must hear.”
36 Og da Røsten kom, blev Jesus funden alene. Og de tav og forkyndte i de Dage ingen noget af det, de havde set.
And, as the voice ceased, Jesus was found alone. The apostles kept silence, and told no one about any of the things that they had seen.
37 Men det skete Dagen derefter, da de kom ned fra Bjerget, at der mødte ham en stor Skare.
The next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met Jesus.
38 Og se, en Mand af Skaren råbte og sagde: "Mester! jeg beder dig, se til min Søn: thi han er min enbårne.
And just then a man in the crowd shouted out, “Teacher, I entreat you to look at my son, for he is my only child;
39 Og se, en Ånd griber ham, og pludseligt skriger han, og den slider i ham, så at han fråder, og med Nød viger den fra ham, idet den mishandler ham;
all at once a spirit will seize him, suddenly shriek out, and throw him into convulsions until he foams, and will leave him only when he is utterly exhausted.
40 og jeg bad dine Disciple om at uddrive den; og de kunde ikke."
I entreated your disciples to drive the spirit out, but they could not.”
41 Men Jesus svarede og sagde: "O du vantro og forvendte Slægt! hvor længe skal jeg være hos eder og tåle eder? Bring din Søn hid!"
“Faithless and perverse generation!” Jesus exclaimed, “How long must I be with you and have patience with you? Lead your son here.”
42 Men endnu medens han gik derhen, rev og sled den onde Ånd i ham. Men Jesus truede den urene Ånd og helbredte drengen og gav hans Fader ham tilbage.
While the boy was coming up to Jesus, the demon dashed him down and threw him into convulsions. But Jesus rebuked the foul spirit, and cured the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 Men de bleve alle slagne af Forundring over Guds Majestæt. Men da alle undrede sig over alt det, han gjorde, sagde han til sine Disciple:
And all present were struck with awe at the majesty of God. In the midst of the general astonishment at all that Jesus was doing, he said to his disciples,
44 "Gemmer i eders Øren disse Ord: Menneskesønnen skal overgives i Menneskers Hænder."
“Listen carefully to my words. For the Son of Man is destined to be betrayed into the hands of his fellow men.”
45 Men de forstode ikke dette Ord, og det var skjult for dem, så de ikke begreb det, og de frygtede for at spørge ham om dette Ord.
But the disciples did not understand the meaning of this; it had been concealed from them so that they did not see it, and they were afraid to question him as to what he meant.
46 Men der opstod den Tanke hos dem, hvem der vel var den største af dem.
A discussion arose among the disciples as to which of them was the greatest;
47 Men da Jesus så deres Hjertes Tanke, tog, han et Barn og stillede det hos sig.
and Jesus, knowing of the discussion that was occupying their thoughts, took hold of a little child, and placed it beside him,
48 Og han sagde til dem: "Den, som modtager dette Barn for mit Navns Skyld, modtager mig; og den, som modtager mig, modtager den, som udsendte mig; thi den, som er den mindste iblandt eder alle, han er stor."
and then said to them, “Anyone who, for the sake of my name, welcomes even this little child is welcoming me; and anyone who welcomes me is welcoming him who sent me as his messenger. For whoever is least among you all – that person is great.”
49 Men Johannes tog til Orde og sagde: "Mester! vi så en uddrive onde Ånder i dit Navn; og vi forbød ham det, fordi han ikke følger med os."
John said, “Sir, we saw a man driving out demons by using your name, and we tried to prevent him, because he does not follow you with us.”
50 Men Jesus sagde til ham: "Forbyder ham det ikke; thi den, som ikke er imod eder, er for eder."
“None of you must prevent him,” Jesus said to John, “whoever is not against you is for you.”
51 Men det skete, da hans Optagelses Dage vare ved at fuldkommes, da fæstede han sit Ansigt på at drage til Jerusalem.
As the days before his being taken up to heaven were growing few, Jesus set his face resolutely in the direction of Jerusalem; and he sent on messengers in advance.
52 Og han sendte Sendebud forud for sig; og de gik og kom ind i en Samaritanerlandsby for at berede ham Herberge.
On their way, they went into a Samaritan village to make preparations for him,
53 Og de modtoge ham ikke, fordi han var på Vejen til Jerusalem.
but the people there did not welcome him, because his face was set in the direction of Jerusalem.
54 Men da hans Disciple, Jakob og Johannes, så det, sagde de: "Herre! vil du, at vi skulle byde Ild fare ned fra Himmelen og fortære dem, ligesom også Elias gjorde?"
When James and John saw this, they said, “Master, do you wish us to call for fire to come down from the heavens and consume them?”
55 Men han vendte sig og irettesatte dem.
But Jesus turned and rebuked them.
56 Og de gik til en anden Landsby.
And they made their way to another village.
57 Og medens de vandrede på Vejen, sagde en til ham: "Jeg vil følge dig, hvor du end går hen."
And, while they were on their way, a man said to Jesus, “I will follow you wherever you go.”
58 Og Jesus sagde til ham: "Ræve have Huler, og Himmelens Fugle Reder; men Menneskesønnen har ikke det, hvortil han kan hælde sit Hoved."
“Foxes have holes,” he replied, “and wild birds their nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”
59 Men han sagde til en anden: "Følg mig!" Men denne sagde: "Herre! tilsted mig først at gå hen at begrave min Fader."
To another man Jesus said, “Follow me.” “Let me first go and bury my father,” said the man.
60 Men han sagde til ham: "Lad de døde begrave deres døde; men gå du hen og forkynd Guds Rige!"
But Jesus said, “Leave the dead to bury their dead; but go yourself and carry far and wide the news of the kingdom of God.”
61 Men også en anden sagde: "Herre! jeg vil følge dig; men tilsted mig først at tage Afsked med dem, som ere i mit Hus."
“Master,” said another, “I will follow you; but first let me say goodbye to my family.”
62 Men Jesus sagde til ham: "Ingen, som lægger sin Hånd på Ploven og ser tilbage, er vel skikket for Guds Rige."
But Jesus answered, “No one who looks back, after putting their hand to the plow, is fitted for the kingdom of God.”
