Matthæus 16
1 Og Farisæerne og Saddukæerne kom hen og fristede ham og begærede, at han vilde vise dem et Tegn fra Himmelen.
The Pharisees and Sadducees came to test Jesus, demanding that he show them a sign from heaven.
2 Men han svarede og sagde til dem: "Om Aftenen sige I: Det bliver en skøn Dag, thi Himmelen er rød;
Jesus replied, “In the evening you say, ‘It'll be a fine day tomorrow, because the sky is red,’
3 og om Morgenen: Det bliver Storm i Dag, thi Himmelen er rød og mørk. Om Himmelens Udseende vide I at dømme, men om Tidernes Tegn kunne I det, ikke.
while in the morning you say, ‘It'll be bad weather today, because the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to predict the weather by what the sky looks like, but you can't recognize the signs of the times!
4 En ond og utro Slægt forlanger Tegn; men der skal intet Tegn gives den uden Jonas's Tegn." Og han forlod dem og gik bort.
Evil people who don't trust in God are the ones who look for a miraculous sign, and no sign will be given to them except the sign of Jonah.” He left them and went away.
5 Og da hans Disciple kom over til hin Side, havde de glemt at tage Brød med.
Going to the other side of the lake, the disciples forgot to bring bread with them.
6 Og Jesus sagde til dem: "Ser til, og tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Surdejg!"
“Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees,” Jesus told them.
7 Men de tænkte ved sig selv og sagde: "Det er, fordi vi ikke toge Brød med."
The disciples started arguing among themselves. “He's saying that because we didn't bring any bread,” they concluded.
8 Men da Jesus mærkede dette, sagde han: "I lidettroende! hvorfor tænke I ved eder selv på, at I ikke have taget Brød med?
Jesus knew what they were saying and said, “You have so little trust in me! Why are you arguing among yourselves about not having any bread?
9 Forstå I ikke endnu? Komme I heller ikke i Hu de fem Brød til de fem Tusinde, og hvor mange Kurve I da toge op?
Haven't you worked it out yet? Don't you remember the five loaves that fed five thousand? How many baskets of leftovers did you collect?
10 Ikke heller de syv Brød til de fire Tusinde, og hvor mange Kurve I da toge op?
And what about the seven loaves that fed the four thousand? How many baskets of leftovers did you collect?
11 Hvorledes forstå I da ikke, at det ej var om Brød, jeg sagde det til eder? Men tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Surdejg."
Haven't you worked it out yet that I wasn't talking to you about bread? Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees!”
12 Da forstode de, at han havde ikke sagt, at de skulde tage sig i Vare for Surdejgen i Brød, men for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Lære.
Then they realized that he wasn't warning them to watch out for bread yeast, but about the teachings of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
13 Men da Jesus var kommen til Egnen ved Kæsarea Filippi, spurgte han sine Disciple og sagde: "Hvem sige Folk, at Menneskesønnen er?"
When Jesus arrived in the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of man is?”
14 Men de sagde: "Nogle sige Johannes Døberen; andre Elias; andre Jeremias eller en af Profeterne."
“Some say John the Baptist, some say Elijah, and others say Jeremiah or one of the other prophets,” they replied.
15 Han siger til dem: "Men I, hvem sige I, at jeg er?"
“But what about you?” he asked them. “Who do you say I am?”
16 Da svarede Simon Peter og sagde: "Du er Kristus, den levende Guds Søn."
“You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God,” Simon Peter replied.
17 Og Jesus svarede og sagde til ham: "Salig er du, Simon Jonas's Søn! thi Kød og Blod har ikke åbenbaret dig det, men min Fader, som er i Himlene.
“You are truly blessed, Simon son of John,” Jesus told him. “For this wasn't revealed to you by human flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven.
18 Så siger jeg også dig, at du er Petrus, og på denne Klippe vil jeg bygge min Menighed, og Dødsrigets Porte skulle ikke få Overhånd over den. (Hadēs g86)
I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church and the powers of death won't overcome it. (Hadēs g86)
19 Og jeg vil give dig Himmeriges Riges Nøgler, og hvad du binder på Jorden, det skal være bundet i Himlene, og hvad du løser på Jorden, det skal være løst i Himlene."
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you ban on earth will be banned in heaven, and whatever you allow on earth will be allowed in heaven.”
20 Da bød han sine Disciple, at de måtte ikke sige til nogen at han var Kristus.
Then he warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Messiah.
21 Fra den Tid begyndte Jesus at give sine Disciple til Kende, at han skulde gå til Jerusalem og lide meget af de Ældste og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge og ihjelslås og oprejses på den tredje Dag.
From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he would have to go Jerusalem, and that he would suffer terribly at the hands of the elders, chief priests, and religious teachers; and that he would be killed, but he would rise again on the third day.
22 Og Peter tog ham til Side, begyndte at sætte ham i Rette og sagde: "Gud bevare dig, Herre; dette skal ingenlunde ske dig!"
Peter took Jesus aside and started to tell him he shouldn't talk like that. “God forbid, Lord, that this would ever happen to you!” he said.
23 Men han vendte sig og sagde til Peter: "Vig bag mig, Satan! du er mig en Forargelse; thi du sanser ikke, hvad Guds er, men hvad Menneskers er."
Jesus turned to Peter, and told him, “Get away from me, Satan! You are a trap to trip me up, because you're thinking in a human way, and not as God thinks!”
24 Da sagde Jesus til sine Disciple: "Vil nogen komme efter mig, han fornægte sig selv og tage sit Kors op og følge mig!
Then Jesus told his disciples, “If you want to be a follower of mine, you must deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow me.
25 Thi den, som vil frelse sit. Liv, skal miste det; men den, som mister sit Liv for min Skyld, skal bjærge det.
For if you want to save your life you will lose it, and if you lose your life for my sake you will save it.
26 Thi hvad gavner det et Menneske, om han vinder den hele Verden, men må bøde med sin Sjæl? Eller hvad kan et Menneske give til Vederlag for sin Sjæl?
What benefit is it for you to gain the whole world, yet lose your life? What would you give in exchange for your life?
27 Thi Menneskesønnen skal komme i sin Faders Herlighed med sine Engle; og da skal han betale enhver efter hans Gerning.
For the Son of man is going to come in his Father's glory, together with his angels. Then he will give everyone what they deserve according to what they've done.
28 Sandelig siger jeg eder, der er nogle af dem, som stå her, der ingenlunde skulle smage Døden, førend de se Menneskesønnen komme i sit Rige."
I tell you the truth, there are some standing here who won't die before they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.”
