Matthæus 9
1 Og han gik om Bord i et Skib og for over og kom til sin egen By.
And going on board a boat, he crossed over, 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 lo! they brought to him a man that was palsied, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the palsied man, Be of good cheer, son; thy sins are forgiven.
3 Og se, nogle af de skriftkloge sagde ved sig selv: "Denne taler bespotteligt."
And lo! some of the scribes said within themselves, This man is blaspheming.
4 Og da Jesus så deres Tanker, sagde han: "Hvorfor tænke I ondt i eders Hjerter?
And Jesus seeing their thoughts, said, Wherefore have ye evil thoughts in your hearts?
5 Thi hvilket er lettest at sige: Dine Synder forlades dig, eller at sige: Stå op og gå?
For which is easier? to say, Thy sins are forgiven? or to say, Arise, 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 ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on earth to forgive sins, —then he saith to the palsied man, —Arise, take up thy bed, and go to thy house.
7 Og han stod op og gik bort til sit Hus.
And he arose, and went away to his house.
8 Men da Skarerne så det, frygtede de og priste Gud, som havde givet Menneskene en sådan Magt.
And when the multitudes saw it, they were struck with fear, and gave glory to 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.
And as Jesus passed on from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the custom-house; and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.
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 it came to pass, as he was reclining at table in the house, lo! many publicans and sinners came and reclined with Jesus and his disciples.
11 Og da Farisæerne så det, sagde de til hans Disciple: "Hvorfor spiser eders Mester med Toldere og Syndere?"
And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why doth your teacher eat with the publicans and sinners?
12 Men da Jesus hørte det, sagde han: "De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge.
But when he heard that, he said, They who are well do not need a physician, but they who are sick.
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 ye and learn what this meaneth: “I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.” For I came not to call righteous men, but sinners.
14 Da komme Johannes's Disciple til ham og sige: "Hvorfor faste vi og Farisæerne meget, men dine Disciple faste ikke?"
Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples fast 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.
And Jesus said to them, Can the companions of the bridegroom mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then will they 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 putteth a patch of undressed cloth on an old garment; for the piece that filleth in teareth away from the garment, and a worse rent is made.
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 men put new wine into old skins; else the skins burst, and the wine runneth out, and the skins are spoilt. But they put new wine into new skins, and both are preserved together.
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."
While he was thus speaking to them, lo! a certain ruler came in and bowed down before him, saying, My daughter just now died; but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she will live.
19 Og Jesus stod op og fulgte ham med sine Disciple.
And Jesus arose and followed him, with his disciples.
20 Og se, en Kvinde, som havde haft Blodflod i tolv År, trådte hen bagfra og rørte ved Fligen af hans Klædebon;
And, lo! a woman, who had had an issue of blood for twelve years, came up behind, and touched the fringe of his garment.
21 thi hun sagde ved sig selv: "Dersom jeg blot rører ved hans Klædebon, bliver jeg frelst."
For she said within herself, If I only touch his garment, I shall be made well.
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.
And he turned round, and seeing her, said, Be of good cheer, daughter; thy faith hath made thee well. And the woman was made well from that hour.
23 Og da Jesus kom til Forstanderens Hus og så Fløjtespillerne og Hoben, som larmede, sagde han:
And Jesus coming into the ruler's house, and seeing the minstrels, and the crowd making a noise,
24 "Gå bort, thi Pigen er ikke død, men hun sover." Og de lo ad ham.
said, Withdraw; for the girl is not dead, but is sleeping. And they laughed him to scorn.
25 Men da Hoben var dreven ud, gik han ind og tog hende ved Hånden; og Pigen stod op.
But when the crowd had been put out, he went in, and took hold of her hand; and the girl arose.
26 Og Rygtet herom kom ud i hele den Egn.
And the report of this went abroad into all that country.
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 Jesus passed on from thence, two blind men followed him, crying out and saying, 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 come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus saith to them, Do ye believe that I am able to do this? They say to him, Yea, Lord.
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 done to you.
30 Og deres Øjne bleve åbnede. Og Jesus bød dem strengt og sagde: "Ser til, lad ingen få det at vide."
And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly charged them, saying, See that no one know it.
31 Men de gik ud og udbredte Rygtet om ham i hele den Egn.
But they went out, and spread abroad his fame in all that country.
32 Men da disse gik ud, se, da førte de til ham et stumt Menneske, som var besat.
And as they were going out, lo! they brought to him a dumb man, possessed by a demon.
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 the demon was cash out, the dumb man spoke. And the multitudes marveled, saying, Never was the like seen in Israel.
34 Men Farisæerne sagde: "Ved de onde Ånders Fyrste uddriver han de onde Ånder."
But the Pharisees said, He casteth out the demons through the prince of the 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 went round all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the glad tidings of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease.
36 Men da han så Skarerne, ynkedes han inderligt over dem; thi de vare vanrøgtede og forkomne som Får, der ikke have Hyrde.
And seeing the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and scattered about, as sheep having no shepherd.
37 Da siger han til sine Disciple: "Høsten er stor, men Arbejderne ere få;
Then he saith to his disciples, The harvest indeed is great, but the laborers are few.
38 beder derfor Høstens Herre om, at han vil sende Arbejdere ud til sin Høst."
Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers for his harvest.
