Matthæus 9
1 Og han gik om Bord i et Skib og for over og kom til sin egen By.
So he went on board, crossed the sea, and came to his own city.
2 Og se, de bare til ham en værkbruden, som lå på en Seng; og da Jesus så deres Tro, sagde han til den værkbrudne: "Søn! vær frimodig, dine Synder forlades dig."
And here they brought to him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith he said to the paralytic, "Courage, son, your sins are forgiven."
3 Og se, nogle af de skriftkloge sagde ved sig selv: "Denne taler bespotteligt."
And behold! certain scribes said to themselves, "This man is blaspheming."
4 Og da Jesus så deres Tanker, sagde han: "Hvorfor tænke I ondt i eders Hjerter?
And because Jesus knew well their thought, he said.
5 Thi hvilket er lettest at sige: Dine Synder forlades dig, eller at sige: Stå op og gå?
"Why do you think evil in your hearts? For which is easier, to say’Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’?
6 Men for at I skulle vide, at Menneskesønnen har Magt på Jorden til at forlade Synder," da siger han til den værkbrudne: "Stå op, og tag din Seng, og gå til dit Hus!"
"But that you may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins"- he then says to the paralytic, "Rise, take up your bed, and go to your home."
7 Og han stod op og gik bort til sit Hus.
And he rose and went to his home.
8 Men da Skarerne så det, frygtede de og priste Gud, som havde givet Menneskene en sådan Magt.
But all the crowd were awestruck, and glorified God, who had given such power to men.
9 Og da Jesus gik videre derfra, så han en Mand, som hed Matthæus, sidde ved Toldboden; og han siger til ham: "Følg mig!" Og han stod op og fulgte ham.
As Jesus was passing thence, he saw a man called Mathew sitting at the tax-office, and said to him, "Follow me."
10 Og det skete, da han sad til Bords i Huset, se, da kom der mange Toldere og Syndere og sade til Bords med Jesus og hans Disciple.
And he rose and followed him. And while he was at table in Matthew’s house, there came many tax-gatherers and sinners, and they dined with Jesus and his disciples.
11 Og da Farisæerne så det, sagde de til hans Disciple: "Hvorfor spiser eders Mester med Toldere og Syndere?"
When the Pharisees saw it, they kept saying to his disciples, "Why does your Teacher eat with the tax-gatherers and sinners?"
12 Men da Jesus hørte det, sagde han: "De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge.
"It is not those who are well," said Jesus, when he heard this, "but the sick, who need a doctor.
13 Men går hen og lærer, hvad det vil sige: Jeg har Lyst til Barmhjertighed og ikke til Offer; thi jeg er ikke kommen for at kalde retfærdige, men Syndere,"
"But go and learn what this means, "It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice; for I am come not to call just men, but sinners."
14 Da komme Johannes's Disciple til ham og sige: "Hvorfor faste vi og Farisæerne meget, men dine Disciple faste ikke?"
At that time the disciples of Johncame and asked him, "Why are we and the Pharisees always fasting, while your disciples are not?"
15 Og Jesus sagde til dem: "Kunne Brudesvendene sørge, så længe Brudgommen er hos dem? Men der skal komme Dage, da Brudgommen bliver tagen fra dem, og da skulle de faste.
"Can the friends fast at a wedding-feast," said Jesus, "so long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom has been taken from them, and then they will fast.
16 Men ingen sætter en Lap af uvalket Klæde på et gammelt Klædebon; thi Lappen river Klædebonnet itu, og der bliver et værre Hul.
"No one ever sews a piece of undressed cloth on an old cloak. If they did, the patch put on to fill it up would tear away from the cloak, and the rent be made worse.
17 Man kommer heller ikke ung Vin på gamle Læderflasker, ellers sprænges Læderflaskerne, og Vinen spildes, og Læderflaskerne ødelægges; men man kommer ung Vin på nye Læderflasker, så blive begge Dele bevarede."
"Nor do they put new wine into old wine-skins; if they did, the wine- skins would split, the wine would run out, and the skins be ruined. Instead, they put new wine into fresh wine-skins and both are preserved."
18 Medens han talte dette til dem, se, da kom der en Forstander og faldt ned for ham og sagde: "Min Datter er lige nu død; men kom og læg din Hånd på hende, så bliver hun levende."
As he was saying these words to them, a ruler came up and knelt before him, saying. "My daughter has just died; but come, put your hand upon her, and she will live."
19 Og Jesus stod op og fulgte ham med sine Disciple.
And Jesus rose and followed him, and so did his disciples.
20 Og se, en Kvinde, som havde haft Blodflod i tolv År, trådte hen bagfra og rørte ved Fligen af hans Klædebon;
But a woman who had had a hemorrhage for twelve years came up behind him, and touched the tassel of his cloak.
21 thi hun sagde ved sig selv: "Dersom jeg blot rører ved hans Klædebon, bliver jeg frelst."
For she said to herself, "If only I can touch his cloak, I shall be cured."
22 Men Jesus vendte sig om, og da han så hende, sagde han: "Datter! vær frimodig, din Tro har frelst dig." Og Kvinden blev frelst fra den samme Time.
But Jesus turned and saw her and said, "Be of good courage, daughter, your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that hour.
23 Og da Jesus kom til Forstanderens Hus og så Fløjtespillerne og Hoben, som larmede, sagde han:
Now when Jesus had come into the house of the ruler, and had seen the flute-players and the wailing crowd, he said,
24 "Gå bort, thi Pigen er ikke død, men hun sover." Og de lo ad ham.
"Leave the room, for the little girl is not dead, she is sleeping." And they began laughing at him.
25 Men da Hoben var dreven ud, gik han ind og tog hende ved Hånden; og Pigen stod op.
When, however, the crowd had been driven out, he went in and took her hand, and the little girl woke up.
26 Og Rygtet herom kom ud i hele den Egn.
And the report of this spread throughout that whole region.
27 Og da Jesus gik bort derfra, fulgte der ham to blinde, som råbte og sagde: "Forbarm dig over os, du Davids Søn!"
And as he went on from thence two blind men followed Jesus, crying, "Have pity on us, Son of David!"
28 Men da han kom ind i Huset, gik de blinde til ham; og Jesus siger til dem: "Tro I, at jeg kan gøre dette?"De siger til ham:"Ja, Herre!"
And when he had gone indoors, they came to him. "Do you believe that I can do this?" asked Jesus. "Yes, Lord," they answered.
29 Da rørte han ved deres Øjne og sagde: "Det ske eder efter eders Tro!"
Then he touched their eyes, saying "According to your faith be it unto you," and their eyes were opened.
30 Og deres Øjne bleve åbnede. Og Jesus bød dem strengt og sagde: "Ser til, lad ingen få det at vide."
Jesus charged them sternly, saying, "See to it that you let no one know."
31 Men de gik ud og udbredte Rygtet om ham i hele den Egn.
But they went and published his fame in that whole region.
32 Men da disse gik ud, se, da førte de til ham et stumt Menneske, som var besat.
And as they were departing a dumb demoniac was brought to him,
33 Og da den onde Ånd var uddreven, talte den stumme. Og Skarerne forundrede sig og sagde: "Aldrig er sådant set i Israel."
and when he had driven out the demon, the dumb spoke. The crowds were amazed, saying, "Never was such a thing seen in Israel!"
34 Men Farisæerne sagde: "Ved de onde Ånders Fyrste uddriver han de onde Ånder."
But the Pharisees kept saying, "It is in the power of the Prince of the demons that he is casting out demons."
35 Og Jesus gik omkring i alle Byerne og Landsbyerne, lærte i deres Synagoger og prædikede Rigets Evangelium og helbredte enhver Sygdom og enhver Skrøbelighed.
And Jesus continued to go throughout all the cities and towns, teaching in the synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and infirmity.
36 Men da han så Skarerne, ynkedes han inderligt over dem; thi de vare vanrøgtede og forkomne som Får, der ikke have Hyrde.
And when he saw the crowds he had compassion on them because they were distressed and fainting, like sheep without a shepherd.
37 Da siger han til sine Disciple: "Høsten er stor, men Arbejderne ere få;
And he said to his disciples. "The harvest is great, but the laborers are few;
38 beder derfor Høstens Herre om, at han vil sende Arbejdere ud til sin Høst."
"therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to thrust forth laborers into his harvest field."
