< Matthæus 16 >

1 Og Farisæerne og Saddukæerne kom hen og fristede ham og begærede, at han vilde vise dem et Tegn fra Himmelen.
And the Pharisees and Sadducees having come, tempting, did question him, to shew to them a sign from the heaven,
2 Men han svarede og sagde til dem: "Om Aftenen sige I: Det bliver en skøn Dag, thi Himmelen er rød;
and he answering said to them, 'Evening having come, ye say, Fair weather, for the heaven 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.
and at morning, Foul weather to-day, for the heaven is red — gloomy; hypocrites, the face of the heavens indeed ye do know to discern, but the signs of the times ye are not able!
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.
'A generation evil and adulterous doth seek a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;' and having left them he went away.
5 Og da hans Disciple kom over til hin Side, havde de glemt at tage Brød med.
And his disciples having come to the other side, forgot to take loaves,
6 Og Jesus sagde til dem: "Ser til, og tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Surdejg!"
and Jesus said to them, 'Beware, and take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees;'
7 Men de tænkte ved sig selv og sagde: "Det er, fordi vi ikke toge Brød med."
and they were reasoning in themselves, saying, 'Because we took no loaves.'
8 Men da Jesus mærkede dette, sagde han: "I lidettroende! hvorfor tænke I ved eder selv på, at I ikke have taget Brød med?
And Jesus having known, said to them, 'Why reason ye in yourselves, ye of little faith, because ye took no loaves?
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?
do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand-baskets ye took up?
10 Ikke heller de syv Brød til de fire Tusinde, og hvor mange Kurve I da toge op?
nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
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."
how do ye not understand that I did not speak to you of bread — to take heed of the leaven 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 understood that he did not say to take heed of the leaven of the bread, but of the teaching, 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?"
And Jesus, having come to the parts of Caesarea Philippi, was asking his disciples, saying, 'Who do men say me to be — the Son of Man?'
14 Men de sagde: "Nogle sige Johannes Døberen; andre Elias; andre Jeremias eller en af Profeterne."
and they said, 'Some, John the Baptist, and others, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.'
15 Han siger til dem: "Men I, hvem sige I, at jeg er?"
He saith to them, 'And ye — who do ye say me to be?'
16 Da svarede Simon Peter og sagde: "Du er Kristus, den levende Guds Søn."
and Simon Peter answering said, 'Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.'
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.
And Jesus answering said to him, 'Happy art thou, Simon Bar-Jona, because flesh and blood did not reveal [it] to thee, but my Father who is in the heavens.
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)
'And I also say to thee, that thou art a rock, and upon this rock I will build my assembly, and gates of Hades shall not prevail against 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."
and I will give to thee the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever thou mayest bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever thou mayest loose upon the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.'
20 Da bød han sine Disciple, at de måtte ikke sige til nogen at han var Kristus.
Then did he charge his disciples that they may say to no one that he is Jesus the Christ.
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 began Jesus to shew to his disciples that it is necessary for him to go away to Jerusalem, and to suffer many things from the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be put to death, and the third day to rise.
22 Og Peter tog ham til Side, begyndte at sætte ham i Rette og sagde: "Gud bevare dig, Herre; dette skal ingenlunde ske dig!"
And having taken him aside, Peter began to rebuke him, saying, 'Be kind to thyself, sir; this shall not be to thee;'
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."
and he having turned, said to Peter, 'Get thee behind me, adversary! thou art a stumbling-block to me, for thou dost not mind the things of God, but the things of men.'
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 said Jesus to his disciples, 'If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his 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 whoever may will to save his life, shall lose it, and whoever may lose his life for my sake shall find 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?
for what is a man profited if he may gain the whole world, but of his life suffer loss? or what shall a man give as an exchange for his 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 about to come in the glory of his Father, with his messengers, and then he will reward each, according to his work.
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."
Verily I say to you, there are certain of those standing here who shall not taste of death till they may see the Son of Man coming in his reign.'
