Markus 2
1 Og da han nogle Dage derefter atter gik ind i Kapernaum, spurgtes det, at han var hjemme.
Some days later, when Jesus came back to Capernaum, the news spread that he was in a house there;
2 Og der samledes mange, så at der ikke mere var Plads, end ikke foran Døren; og han talte Ordet til dem.
and so many people collected together, that after a while there was no room for them even around the door; and he began to tell them his message.
3 Og de komme og bringe til ham en værkbruden, der blev båren af fire.
Some people came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, who was being carried by four of them.
4 Og da de ikke kunde komme nær til ham for Folkeskaren, toge de Taget af, hvor han var; og da de havde brudt Hul, firede de Sengen ned, hvorpå den værkbrudne lå.
They were unable to get him near to Jesus, because of the crowd, so they removed the roof above Jesus, and, when they had made an opening, they let down the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying.
5 Og da Jesus så deres Tro, siger han til den værkbrudne: "Søn! dine Synder ere forladte."
When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Child, your sins are forgiven.”
6 Men nogle af de skriftkloge sade der og tænkte i deres Hjerter:
But some of the teachers of the Law who were sitting there were debating in their minds,
7 "Hvorfor taler denne således? Han taler bespotteligt. Hvem kan forlade Synder uden een, nemlig Gud?"
“Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins except God?”
8 Og Jesus kendte straks i sin Ånd, at de tænkte således ved sig selv, og sagde til dem: "Hvorfor tænke I dette i eders Hjerter?
Jesus, at once intuitively aware that they were debating with themselves in this way, said to them, “Why are you debating in your minds about this?
9 Hvilket er lettest, at sige til den værkbrudne: Dine Synder ere forladte, eller at sige: Stå op, og tag din Seng, og gå?
Which is easier? – to say to the paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven’? Or to say ‘Get up, and take up your mat, and walk’?
10 Men for at I skulle vide, at Menneskesønnen har Magt på Jorden til at forlade Synder," siger han til den værkbrudne:
But so you may know that the Son of Man has power to forgive sins on earth” – here he said to the paralyzed man –
11 "Jeg siger dig: Stå op, tag din Seng, og gå til dit Hus!"
“To you I say, Get up, take up your mat, and return to your home.”
12 Og han stod op og tog straks Sengen og gik ud for alles Øjne, så de alle bleve forfærdede og priste Gud og sagde: "Aldrig have vi set noget sådant."
The man got up, and immediately took up his mat, and went out before them all; at which they were amazed, and, as they praised God, they said, “We have never seen anything like this!”
13 Og han gik atter ud langs Søen, og hele Skaren kom til ham, og han lærte dem.
Jesus went out again to the sea; and all the people came to him, and he taught them.
14 Og da han gik forbi, så han Levi, Alfæus's Søn sidde ved Toldboden, og han siger til ham: "Følg mig!" Og han stod op og fulgte ham.
As he went along, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting in the tax office, and said to him, “Follow me.” Levi got up and followed him.
15 Og det skete, at han sad til Bords i hans Hus, og mange Toldere og Syndere sade til Bords med Jesus, og hans Disciple; thi de vare mange. Og der fulgte også
Later on he was in his house having dinner, and a number of tax collectors and outcasts took their places at the table with Jesus and his disciples; for many of them were following him.
16 nogle skriftkloge af Farisæerne med ham, og da de så, at han spiste med Toldere og Syndere, sagde de til hans Disciple: "Han spiser og drikker med Toldere og Syndere!"
When the teachers of the Law belonging to the party of the Pharisees saw that he was eating in the company of such people, they said to his disciples, “Why does he eat with the tax collectors and outcasts?”
17 Og da Jesus hørte det, siger han til dem: "De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge. Jeg er ikke kommen for at kalde retfærdige, men Syndere."
Hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not those who are healthy who need a doctor, but those who are ill. I did not come to call the religious, but the outcast.”
18 Og Johannes's Disciple og Farisæerne fastede, og de komme og sige til ham: "Hvorfor faste Johannes's Disciple og Farisæernes Disciple, men dine Disciple faste ikke?"
Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were fasting, and people came and asked Jesus, “Why is it that John’s disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, while yours do not?”
19 Og Jesus sagde til dem: "Kunne Brudesvendene faste, medens Brudgommen er hos dem? Så længe de have Brudgommen hos sig kunne de ikke faste.
Jesus answered, “Can the groom’s friends fast, while the groom is with them? As long as they have the groom with them, they cannot fast.
20 Men der skal komme Dage, da Brudgommen bliver tagen fra dem, da skulle de faste på den Dag.
But the days will come, when the groom will be taken away from them, and they will fast then – when that day comes.”
21 Ingen syr en Lap af uvalket Klæde på et gammelt Klædebon; ellers river den nye Lap på det gamle Klædebon dette itu, og der bliver et værre Hul.
“No one ever sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; if they do, the patch tears away from it – the new from the old – and a worse tear is made.
22 Og ingen kommer ung Vin på gamle Læderflasker; ellers sprænger Vinen Læderflaskerne, og Vinen ødelægges såvel som Læderflaskerne; men kom ung Vin på nye Læderflasker!"
And no one ever puts new wine into old wine-skins; if they do, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the skins are lost. But new wine is put into fresh skins.”
23 Og det skete, at han vandrede på Sabbaten igennem en Sædemark, og hans Disciple begyndte, imedens de gik, at plukke Aks.
One Sabbath, as Jesus was walking through the cornfields, his disciples began to pick the ears of wheat as they went along.
24 Og Farisæerne sagde til ham: "Se, hvorfor gøre de på Sabbaten, hvad der ikke er tilladt?"
“Look!” the Pharisees said to him, “why are they doing what is not allowed on the Sabbath?”
25 Og han siger til dem "Have I aldrig læst, hvad David gjorde, da han kom i Nød og blev hungrig, han selv og de, som vare med ham?
“Have you never read,” answered Jesus, “what David did when he was in need and hungry, he and his companions –
26 Hvorledes han gik ind i Guds Hus, da Abiathar var Ypperstepræst, og spiste Skuebrødene, som det ikke er nogen tilladt at spise uden Præsterne, og gav også dem, som vare med ham?"
how he went into the house of God, in the time of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the consecrated bread, which only the priests are allowed to eat, and gave some to his comrades as well?”
27 Og han sagde til dem: "Sabbaten blev til for Menneskets Skyld og ikke Mennesket for Sabbatens Skyld.
Then Jesus added, “The Sabbath was made for people, and not people for the Sabbath;
28 Derfor er Menneskesønnen Herre også over Sabbaten."
so the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.”
