Matthæus 26
1 Og det skete, da Jesus havde fuldendt alle disse Ord, sagde han til sine Disciple:
When Jesus had finished saying all these things, He told His disciples,
2 "I vide, at om to Dage er det Påske; så forrådes Menneskesønnen til at korsfæstes."
“You know that the Passover is two days away, and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”
3 Da forsamledes Ypperstepræsterne og Folkets Ældste i Ypperstepræstens Gård; han hed Kajfas.
At that time the chief priests and elders of the people assembled in the courtyard of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,
4 Og de rådsloge om at gribe Jesus med List og ihjelslå ham.
and they conspired to arrest Jesus covertly and kill Him.
5 Men de sagde: "Ikke på Højtiden, for at der ikke skal blive Oprør iblandt Folket."
“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”
6 Men da Jesus var kommen til Bethania, i Simon den spedalskes Hus,
While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper,
7 kom der en Kvinde til ham, som havde en Alabastkrukke med såre kostbar Salve, og hun udgød den på hans Hoved, medens han sad til Bords.
a woman came to Him with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, which she poured on His head as He reclined at the table.
8 Men da Disciplene så det, bleve de vrede og sagde: "Hvortil denne Spilde?
When the disciples saw this, they were indignant and asked, “Why this waste?
9 Dette kunde jo være solgt til en høj Pris og være givet til fattige."
This perfume could have been sold at a high price, and the money given to the poor.”
10 Men da Jesus mærkede det, sagde han til dem: "Hvorfor volde I Kvinden Fortrædeligheder? Hun har jo gjort en god Gerning imod mig.
Aware of this, Jesus asked, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.
11 Thi de fattige have I altid hos eder; men mig have I ikke altid.
The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me.
12 Thi da hun udgød denne Salve over mit Legeme, gjorde hun det for at berede mig til at begraves.
By pouring this perfume on Me, she has prepared My body for burial.
13 Sandelig, siger jeg eder, hvor som helst i hele Verden dette Evangelium bliver prædiket, skal også det, som hun har gjort, omtales til hendes Ihukommelse."
Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”
14 Da gik en af de tolv, han, som hed Judas Iskariot, hen til Ypperstepræsterne
Then one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests
15 og sagde: "Hvad ville I give mig, så skal jeg forråde ham til eder?" Men de betalte ham tredive Sølvpenge".
and asked, “What are you willing to give me if I hand Him over to you?” And they set out for him thirty pieces of silver.
16 Og fra den Stund søgte han Lejlighed til at forråde ham.
So from then on Judas looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.
17 Men på den første Dag af de usyrede Brøds Højtid kom Disciplene til Jesus og sagde: "Hvor vil du, at vi skulle træffe Forberedelse for dig til at spise Påskelammet?"
On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”
18 Men han sagde: "Går ind i Staden til den og den Mand, og siger til ham: Mesteren siger: Min Time er nær; hos dig holder jeg Påske med mine Disciple."
He answered, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him that the Teacher says, ‘My time is near. I will keep the Passover with My disciples at your house.’”
19 Og Disciplene gjorde, som Jesus befalede dem, og beredte Påskelammet.
So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.
20 Men da det var blevet Aften, sad han til Bords med de tolv.
When evening came, Jesus was reclining with the twelve disciples.
21 Og medens de spiste, sagde han: "Sandelig, siger jeg eder, en af eder vil forråde mig."
And while they were eating, He said to them, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”
22 Og de bleve såre bedrøvede og begyndte hver især at sige til ham: "Det er dog vel ikke mig, Herre?"
They were deeply grieved and began to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I, Lord?”
23 Men han svarede og sagde: "Den, som dyppede Hånden tillige med mig i Fadet, han vil forråde mig.
Jesus answered, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with Me will betray Me.
24 Menneskesønnen går vel bort, som der er skrevet om ham; men ve det Menneske, ved hvem Menneskesønnen bliver forrådt! Det var godt for det Menneske, om han ikke var født."
The Son of Man will go just as it is written about Him, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed. It would be better for him if he had not been born.”
25 Men Judas, som forrådte ham, svarede og sagde: "Det er dog vel ikke mig, Rabbi?" Han siger til ham: "Du har sagt det."
Then Judas, who would betray Him, said, “Surely not I, Rabbi?” Jesus answered, “You have said it yourself.”
26 Men medens de spiste, tog Jesus Brød, og han velsignede og brød det og gav Disciplene det og sagde: "Tager, æder; dette er mit Legeme."
While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is My body.”
27 Og han tog en Kalk og takkede. gav dem den og sagde: "Drikker alle deraf;
Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you.
28 thi dette er mit Blod, Pagtens, hvilket udgydes for mange til Syndernes Forladelse.
This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
29 Men jeg siger eder, fra nu af skal jeg ingenlunde drikke af denne Vintræets Frugt indtil den Dag, da jeg skal drikke den ny med eder i min Faders Rige."
I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it anew with you in My Father’s kingdom.”
30 Og da de havde sunget Lovsangen, gik de ud til Oliebjerget.
And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
31 Da siger Jesus til dem: "I skulle alle forarges på mig i denne Nat; thi der er skrevet: Jeg vil slå Hyrden, og Hjordens Får skulle adspredes.
Then Jesus said to them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of Me. For it is written: ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
32 Men efter at jeg er bleven oprejst, vil jeg gå forud for eder til Galilæa."
But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”
33 Men Peter svarede og sagde til ham: "Om end alle ville forarges på dig, så vil jeg dog aldrig forarges."
Peter said to Him, “Even if all fall away on account of You, I never will.”
34 Jesus sagde til ham: "Sandelig, siger jeg dig, i denne Nat, førend Hanen galer, skal du fornægte mig tre Gange."
“Truly I tell you,” Jesus declared, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”
35 Peter siger til ham: "Om jeg end skulde dø med dig, vil jeg ingenlunde fornægte dig." Ligeså sagde også alle Disciplene.
Peter replied, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the other disciples said the same thing.
36 Da kommer Jesus med dem til en Gård, som kaldes Gethsemane, og han siger til Disciplene: "Sætter eder her, medens jeg går derhen og beder."
At that time Jesus went with His disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and He told them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”
37 Og han tog Peter og Zebedæus's to Sønner med sig, og han begyndte at bedrøves og svarlig at ængstes.
He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee and began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.
38 Da siger han til dem: "Min Sjæl er dybt bedrøvet indtil Døden; bliver her og våger med mig!"
Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with Me.”
39 Og han gik lidt frem, faldt på sit Ansigt, bad og sagde: "Min Fader! er det muligt, da gå denne Kalk mig forbi; dog ikke som jeg vil, men som du vil."
Going a little farther, He fell facedown and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me. Yet not as I will, but as You will.”
40 Og han kommer til Disciplene og finder dem sovende, og han siger til Peter: "Så kunde I da ikke våge een Time med mig!
Then Jesus returned to the disciples and found them sleeping. “Were you not able to keep watch with Me for one hour?” He asked Peter.
41 Våger og beder, for at I ikke skulle falde i Fristelse! Ånden er vel redebon, men Kødet er skrøbeligt."
“Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”
42 Han gik atter anden Gang hen, bad og sagde: "Min Fader! hvis denne Kalk ikke kan gå mig forbi, uden jeg drikker den, da ske din Villie!"
A second time He went away and prayed, “My Father, if this cup cannot pass unless I drink it, may Your will be done.”
43 Og han kom og fandt dem atter sovende, thi deres Øjne vare betyngede.
And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping—for their eyes were heavy.
44 Og han forlod dem og gik atter hen og bad tredje Gang og sagde atter det samme Ord.
So He left them and went away once more and prayed a third time, saying the same thing.
45 Da kommer han til Disciplene og siger til dem: "Sove I fremdeles og Hvile eder? Se, Timen er nær, og Menneskesønnen forrådes i Synderes Hænder.
Then He returned to the disciples and said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Står op, lader os gå; se, han, som forråder mig, er nær."
Rise, let us go! See, My betrayer is approaching!”
47 Og medens han endnu talte, se, da kom Judas, en af de tolv, og med ham en stor Skare, med Sværd og Knipler, fra Ypperstepræsterne og Folkets Ældste.
While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48 Men han, som forrådte ham, havde givet dem et Tegn og sagt: "Den, som jeg kysser, ham er det; griber ham!"
Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him.”
49 Og han trådte straks hen til Jesus og sagde: "Hil være dig, Rabbi!" og kyssede ham.
Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.
50 Men Jesus sagde til ham: "Ven, hvorfor kommer du her?" Da trådte de til og lagde Hånd på Jesus og grebe ham.
“Friend,” Jesus replied, “do what you came for.” Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus, and arrested Him.
51 Og se, en af dem, som vare med Jesus, rakte Hånden ud og drog sit Sværd og slog Ypperstepræstens Tjener og huggede hans Øre af.
At this, one of Jesus’ companions drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.
52 Da siger Jesus til ham: "Stik dit Sværd igen på dets Sted; thi alle de, som tage Sværd, skulle omkomme ved Sværd.
“Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him. “For all who draw the sword will die by the sword.
53 Eller mener du, at jeg ikke kan bede min Fader, så han nu tilskikker mig mere end tolv Legioner Engle?
Are you not aware that I can call on My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels?
54 Hvorledes skulde da Skrifterne opfyldes, at det bør gå således til?"
But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen this way?”
55 I den samme Time sagde Jesus til Skarerne: "I ere gåede ud ligesom imod en Røver med Sværd og Knipler for at fange mig. Daglig sad jeg i Helligdommen og lærte, og I grebe mig ikke.
At that time Jesus said to the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw? Every day I sat teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me.
56 Men det er alt sammen sket, for at Profeternes Skrifter skulde opfyldes." Da forlode alle Disciplene ham og flyede.
But this has all happened so that the writings of the prophets would be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples deserted Him and fled.
57 Men de, som havde grebet Jesus, førte ham hen til Ypperstepræsten Kajfas, hvor de skriftkloge og de Ældste vare forsamlede.
Those who had arrested Jesus led Him away to the house of Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and elders had gathered.
58 Men Peter fulgte ham i Frastand indtil Ypperstepræstens Gård, og han gik indenfor og satte sig hos Svendene for at se, hvad Udgang det vilde få.
But Peter followed Him at a distance, right up to the courtyard of the high priest. And he went in and sat down with the guards to see the outcome.
59 Men Ypperstepræsterne og hele Rådet søgte falsk Vidnesbyrd imod Jesus, for at de kunde aflive ham.
Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus in order to put Him to death.
60 Og de fandt intet, endskønt der trådte mange falske Vidner frem. Men til sidst trådte to frem og sagde:
But they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward
61 "Denne har sagt: Jeg kan nedbryde Guds Tempel og bygge det op i tre Dage."
and declared, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’”
62 Og Ypperstepræsten stod op og sagde til ham: "Svarer du intet på, hvad disse vidne imod dig?"
So the high priest stood up and asked Him, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”
63 Men Jesus tav. Og Ypperstepræsten tog til Orde og sagde til ham: "Jeg besværger dig ved den levende Gud, at du siger os, om du er Kristus, Guds Søn."
But Jesus remained silent. Then the high priest said to Him, “I charge You under oath by the living God: Tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God.”
64 Jesus siger til ham: "Du har sagt det; dog jeg siger eder: Fra nu af skulle I se Menneskesønnen sidde ved Kraftens højre Hånd og komme på Himmelens Skyer."
“You have said it yourself,” Jesus answered. “But I say to all of you, from now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.”
65 Da sønderrev Ypperstepræsten sine Klæder og sagde: "Han har talt bespotteligt; hvad have vi længere Vidner nødig? se, nu have I hørt Bespottelsen.
At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “He has blasphemed! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy.
66 Hvad tykkes eder?" Og de svarede og sagde: "Han er skyldig til Døden."
What do you think?” “He deserves to die,” they answered.
67 Da spyttede de ham i Ansigtet og gave ham Næveslag; andre sloge ham på Kinden
Then they spit in His face and struck Him. Others slapped Him
68 og sagde: "Profeter os, Kristus, hvem var det, der slog dig?"
and said, “Prophesy to us, Christ! Who hit You?”
69 Men Peter sad udenfor i Gården; og en Pige kom hen til ham og sagde: "Også du var med Jesus Galilæeren."
Meanwhile, Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl came up to him. “You also were with Jesus the Galilean,” she said.
70 Men han nægtede det i alles Påhør og sagde: "Jeg forstår ikke, hvad du siger."
But he denied it before them all: “I do not know what you are talking about.”
71 Men da han gik ud i Portrummet, så en anden Pige ham; og hun siger til dem, som vare der: "Denne var med Jesus af Nazareth."
When Peter had gone out to the gateway, another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
72 Og han nægtede det atter med en Ed: "Jeg kender ikke det Menneske."
And again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man!”
73 Men lidt efter kom de, som stode der, hen og sagde til Peter: "Sandelig, også du er en af dem. dit Mål røber dig jo også."
After a little while, those standing nearby came up to Peter. “Surely you are one of them,” they said, “for your accent gives you away.”
74 Da begyndte han at forbande sig og sværge: "Jeg kender ikke det Menneske." Og straks galede Hanen.
At that he began to curse and swear to them, “I do not know the man!” And immediately a rooster crowed.
75 Og Peter kom Jesu Ord i Hu at han havde sagt: "Førend Hanen galer, skal du fornægte mig tre Gange." Og han gik udenfor og græd bitterligt.
Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.
