Matthew 26
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these saying, he said to his disciples,
Og det skete, da Jesus havde fuldendt alle disse Ord, sagde han til sine Disciple:
2 Ye know that after two days the Passover comes, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
„I vide, at om to Dage er det Paaske; saa forraades Menneskesønnen til at korsfæstes.‟
3 Then the chief priests, and the scholars, and the elders of the people, assembled together to the courtyard of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
Da forsamledes Ypperstepræsterne og Folkets Ældste i Ypperstepræstens Gaard; han hed Kajfas.
4 and they deliberated so that they might take Jesus by trickery, and kill him.
Og de raadsloge om at gribe Jesus med List og ihjelslaa ham.
5 But they said, Not during the feast, lest an uproar develop among people.
Men de sagde: „Ikke paa Højtiden, for at der ikke skal blive Oprør iblandt Folket.‟
6 Now when Jesus happened to be in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
Men da Jesus var kommen til Bethania, i Simon den spedalskes Hus,
7 a woman came to him having an alabaster cruse of precious ointment, and she poured it upon his head as he sat relaxing.
kom der en Kvinde til ham, som havde en Alabastkrukke med saare kostbar Salve, og hun udgød den paa hans Hoved, medens han sad til Bords.
8 But when his disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, Why this waste?
Men da Disciplene saa det, bleve de vrede og sagde: „Hvortil denne Spilde?
9 For this ointment could have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
Dette kunde jo være solgt til en høj Pris og være givet til fattige.‟
10 But Jesus knowing it, he said to them, Why do ye cause troubles to the woman? For she has wrought a good work upon me.
Men da Jesus mærkede det, sagde han til dem: „Hvorfor volde I Kvinden Fortrædeligheder? Hun har jo gjort en god Gerning imod mig.
11 For ye always have the poor with you, but ye do not always have me.
Thi de fattige have I altid hos eder; men mig have I ikke altid.
12 For by pouring this ointment upon my body, she did it for my burial.
Thi da hun udgød denne Salve over mit Legeme, gjorde hun det for at berede mig til at begraves.
13 Truly I say to you, wherever this good news may be proclaimed in the whole world, what this woman did will also be told for a memorial of her.
Sandelig, siger jeg eder, hvor som helst i hele Verden dette Evangelium bliver prædiket, skal ogsaa det, som hun har gjort, omtales til hendes Ihukommelse.‟
14 Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, having gone to the chief priests,
Da gik en af de tolv, han, som hed Judas Iskariot, hen til Ypperstepræsterne
15 he said, What are ye willing to give me, and I will deliver him to you? And they weighed out to him thirty silver pieces.
og sagde: „Hvad ville I give mig, saa skal jeg forraade ham til eder?‟ Men de betalte ham tredive Sølvpenge.
16 And from that time he sought a favorable opportunity so that he might betray him.
Og fra den Stund søgte han Lejlighed til at forraade ham.
17 Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where do thou want that we should prepare for thee to eat the Passover?
Men paa 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 Paaskelammet?‟
18 And he said, Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, The teacher says, My time is near. I keep the Passover with my disciples with thee.
Men han sagde: „Gaar ind i Staden til den og den Mand, og siger til ham: Mesteren siger: Min Time er nær; hos dig holder jeg Paaske med mine Disciple.‟
19 And the disciples did as Jesus arranged for them, and they prepared the Passover.
Og Disciplene gjorde, som Jesus befalede dem, og beredte Paaskelammet.
20 Now having become evening, he was sitting with the twelve.
Men da det var blevet Aften, sad han til Bords med de tolv.
21 And as they were eating, he said, Truly I say to you, that one of you will betray me.
Og medens de spiste, sagde han: „Sandelig, siger jeg eder, en af eder vil forraade mig.‟
22 And being exceedingly sorrowful, they began, each of them, to say to him, Is it I, Lord?
Og de bleve saare bedrøvede og begyndte hver især at sige til ham: „Det er dog vel ikke mig, Herre?‟
23 And having answered, he said, He who dipped his hand with me in the dish, this man will betray me.
Men han svarede og sagde: „Den, som dyppede Haanden tillige med mig i Fadet, han vil forraade mig.
24 The Son of man indeed goes as it is written about him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for him if that man had not been born.
Menneskesønnen gaar vel bort, som der er skrevet om ham; men ve det Menneske, ved hvem Menneskesønnen bliver forraadt! Det var godt for det Menneske, om han ikke var født.‟
25 And Judas (the man who betrayed him) having answered, he said, Is it I, Rabbi? He says to him, Thou have said.
Men Judas, som forraadte ham, svarede og sagde: „Det er dog vel ikke mig, Rabbi?‟ Han siger til ham: „Du har sagt det.‟
26 And as they were eating, Jesus, having taken bread, having expressed thanks, broke in pieces, and he gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat, this is my body.
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.‟
27 And having taken the cup, having expressed thanks, he gave to them, saying, All ye drink of it,
Og han tog en Kalk og takkede, gav dem den og sagde: „Drikker alle deraf;
28 for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed on behalf of many for remission of sins.
thi dette er mit Blod, Pagtens, hvilket udgydes for mange til Syndernes Forladelse.
29 But I say to you, that I will, no, not drink of this fruit of the grapevine henceforth until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
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.‟
30 And having sung a hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives.
Og da de havde sunget Lovsangen, gik de ud til Oliebjerget.
31 Then Jesus says to them, All ye will be caused to stumble by me in this night, for it is written, I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.
Da siger Jesus til dem: „I skulle alle forarges paa mig i denne Nat; thi der er skrevet: Jeg vil slaa Hyrden, og Hjordens Faar skulle adspredes.
32 But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.
Men efter at jeg er bleven oprejst, vil jeg gaa forud for eder til Galilæa.‟
33 But having answered, Peter said to him, If all men will be caused to stumble by thee, I will never be caused to stumble.
Men Peter svarede og sagde til ham: „Om end alle ville forarges paa dig, saa vil jeg dog aldrig forarges.‟
34 Jesus said to him, Truly I say to thee, that in this night, before a cock sounds, thou will deny me thrice.
Jesus sagde til ham: „Sandelig, siger jeg dig, i denne Nat, førend Hanen galer, skal du fornægte mig tre Gange.‟
35 Peter says to him, Even if I must die with thee, I will, no, not deny thee. And likewise also, said all the disciples.
Peter siger til ham: „Om jeg end skulde dø med dig, vil jeg ingenlunde fornægte dig.‟ Ligesaa sagde ogsaa alle Disciplene.
36 Then Jesus comes with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, Sit ye here until, after going, I may pray there.
Da kommer Jesus med dem til en Gaard, som kaldes Gethsemane, og han siger til Disciplene: „Sætter eder her, medens jeg gaar derhen og beder.‟
37 And having taken Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and distressed.
Og han tog Peter og Zebedæus's to Sønner med sig, og han begyndte at bedrøves og svarlig at ængstes.
38 Then Jesus says to them, My soul is deeply grieved, as far as of death. Remain ye here and watch with me.
Da siger han til dem: „Min Sjæl er dybt bedrøvet indtil Døden; bliver her og vaager med mig!‟
39 And having gone forward a little, he fell on his face praying, and saying, My Father, if it be possible, may this cup pass from me. Nevertheless, not as I want, but as thou.
Og han gik lidt frem, faldt paa sit Ansigt, bad og sagde: „Min Fader! er det muligt, da gaa denne Kalk mig forbi; dog ikke som jeg vil, men som du vil.‟
40 And he comes to the disciples, and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter, So ye could not watch with me one hour.
Og han kommer til Disciplene og finder dem sovende, og han siger til Peter: „Saa kunde I da ikke vaage een Time med mig!
41 Watch and pray that ye enter not into temptation. Truly, the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Vaager og beder, for at I ikke skulle falde i Fristelse! Aanden er vel redebon, men Kødet er skrøbeligt.‟
42 Having gone again a second time, he prayed, saying, My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to pass from me, except I drink it, may thy will happen.
Han gik atter anden Gang hen, bad og sagde: „Min Fader! hvis denne Kalk ikke kan gaa mig forbi, uden jeg drikker den, da ske din Villie!‟
43 And having come again, he finds them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
Og han kom og fandt dem atter sovende, thi deres Øjne vare betyngede.
44 And when he left them, having gone away again, he prayed a third time, saying again the same statement.
Og han forlod dem og gik atter hen og bad tredje Gang og sagde atter det samme Ord.
45 Then he comes to his disciples, and says to them, Sleep what remains, and take rest. Behold, the hour has come near, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
Da kommer han til Disciplene og siger til dem: „Sove I fremdeles og hvile eder? Se, Timen er nær, og Menneskesønnen forraades i Synderes Hænder.
46 Awake, we go. Behold, he who betrays me has come near.
Staar op, lader os gaa; se, han, som forraader mig, er nær.‟
47 And while he was still speaking, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs from the chief priest and elders of the people.
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.
48 Now the man who betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomever I may kiss is he. Seize him.
Men han, som forraadte ham, havde givet dem et Tegn og sagt: „Den, som jeg kysser, ham er det; griber ham!‟
49 And straightaway having come to Jesus, he said, Hail, Rabbi, and kissed him much.
Og han traadte straks hen til Jesus og sagde: „Hil være dig, Rabbi!‟ og kyssede ham.
50 And Jesus said to him, Friend, why are thou here? Then having come, they threw their hands on Jesus, and seized him.
Men Jesus sagde til ham: „Ven, hvorfor kommer du her?‟ Da traadte de til og lagde Haand paa Jesus og grebe ham.
51 And behold, one of those with Jesus, having stretched out a hand, drew his sword, and when he struck the bondman of the high priest, he cut off his ear.
Og se, en af dem, som vare med Jesus, rakte Haanden ud og drog sit Sværd og slog Ypperstepræstens Tjener og huggede hans Øre af.
52 Then Jesus says to him, Return thy sword into its place, for all those who take a sword will die by a sword.
Da siger Jesus til ham: „Stik dit Sværd igen paa dets Sted; thi alle de, som tage Sværd, skulle omkomme ved Sværd.
53 Or do thou think that I cannot now call my Father, and he will provide to me more than twelve legions of agents?
Eller mener du, at jeg ikke kan bede min Fader, saa han nu tilskikker mig mere end tolv Legioner Engle?
54 How then would the scriptures be fulfilled that it is necessary to happen this way?
Hvorledes skulde da Skrifterne opfyldes, at det bør gaa saaledes til?‟
55 In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, Did ye come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not seize me.
I den samme Time sagde Jesus til Skarerne: „I ere gaaede 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.
56 But all this has come to pass, so that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples fled, having forsook him.
Men det er alt sammen sket, for at Profeternes Skrifter skulde opfyldes.‟ Da forlode alle Disciplene ham og flyede.
57 And those who seized Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest where the scholars and the elders were assembled together.
Men de, som havde grebet Jesus, førte ham hen til Ypperstepræsten Kajfas, hvor de skriftkloge og de Ældste vare forsamlede.
58 But Peter followed him from afar, as far as the courtyard of the high priest. And having entered inside, he sat with the subordinates to see the outcome.
Men Peter fulgte ham i Frastand indtil Ypperstepræstens Gaard, og han gik indenfor og satte sig hos Svendene for at se, hvad Udgang det vilde faa.
59 Now the chief priests and the elders and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus, so that they might put him to death,
Men Ypperstepræsterne og hele Raadet søgte falsk Vidnesbyrd imod Jesus, for at de kunde aflive ham.
60 and they did not find it. And although many false witnesses came, they did not find it.
Og de fandt intet, endskønt der traadte mange falske Vidner frem. Men til sidst traadte to frem og sagde:
61 But finally two false witnesses having come, they said, This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it by three days.
„Denne har sagt: Jeg kan nedbryde Guds Tempel og bygge det op i tre Dage.‟
62 And the high priest having stood up, he said to him, Answer thou nothing? What do these testify against thee?
Og Ypperstepræsten stod op og sagde til ham: „Svarer du intet paa, hvad disse vidne imod dig?‟
63 But Jesus was silent. And having responded, the high priest said to him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou are the Christ, the Son of God.
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.‟
64 Jesus says to him, Thou have said. Nevertheless I say to you, Henceforth ye will see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming in the clouds of the sky.
Jesus siger til ham: „Du har sagt det; dog jeg siger eder: Fra nu af skulle I se Menneskesønnen sidde ved Kraftens højre Haand og komme paa Himmelens Skyer.‟
65 Then the high priest tore his garments, saying, He has blasphemed. What further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now ye heard his blasphemy.
Da sønderrev Ypperstepræsten sine Klæder og sagde: „Han har talt bespotteligt; hvad have vi længere Vidner nødig? se, nu have I hørt Bespottelsen.
66 What does it seem to you? Having answered, they said, He is deserving of death.
Hvad tykkes eder?‟ Og de svarede og sagde: „Han er skyldig til Døden.‟
67 Then they spat in his face and struck him with a fist. And some slapped him,
Da spyttede de ham i Ansigtet og gave ham Næveslag; andre sloge ham paa Kinden
68 saying, Prophesy to us, thou Christ. Who is he who struck thee?
og sagde: „Profetér os, Kristus, hvem var det, der slog dig?‟
69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and one servant girl came to him, saying, Thou also were with Jesus the Galilean.
Men Peter sad udenfor i Gaarden; og en Pige kom hen til ham og sagde: „Ogsaa du var med Jesus Galilæeren.‟
70 But he denied before them all, saying, I do not know what thou say.
Men han nægtede det i alles Paahør og sagde: „Jeg forstaar ikke, hvad du siger.‟
71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another woman saw him, and says to them there, This man was also with Jesus the Nazarene.
Men da han gik ud i Portrummet, saa en anden Pige ham; og hun siger til dem, som vare der: „Denne var med Jesus af Nazareth.‟
72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
Og han nægtede det atter med en Ed: „Jeg kender ikke det Menneske.‟
73 And after a little while those who stood, having approached, said to Peter, Surely thou also are of them, for thy accent even makes thee apparent.
Men lidt efter kom de, som stode der, hen og sagde til Peter: „Sandelig, ogsaa du er en af dem, dit Maal røber dig jo ogsaa.‟
74 Then he began to curse vehemently and to swear, I do not know the man. And straightaway a cock sounded.
Da begyndte han at forbande sig og sværge: „Jeg kender ikke det Menneske.‟ Og straks galede Hanen.
75 And Peter remembered the saying that Jesus said to him, Before a cock sounds, thou will deny me thrice. And having gone outside, he wept bitterly.
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.
