John 16
1 “I have said these things to you so that you would not be caused to stumble.
„Dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I ikke skulle forarges.
2 They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God.
De skulle udelukke eder af Synagogerne, ja, den Tid skal komme, at hver den, som slaar eder ihjel, skal mene, at han viser Gud en Dyrkelse.
3 They will do these things because they have not known the Father nor me.
Og dette skulle de gøre, fordi de hverken kende Faderen eller mig.
4 But I have told you these things so that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
Men dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I, naar Timen kommer, skulle komme i Hu, at jeg har sagt eder det; men dette sagde jeg eder ikke fra Begyndelsen, fordi jeg var hos eder.
5 But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’
Men nu gaar jeg hen til ham, som sendte mig, og ingen af eder spørger mig: Hvor gaar du hen?
6 But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.
Men fordi jeg har talt dette til eder, har Bedrøvelsen opfyldt eders Hjerte.
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Counselor will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
Men jeg siger eder Sandheden: Det er eder gavnligt, at jeg gaar bort, thi gaar jeg ikke bort, kommer Talsmanden ikke til eder; men gaar jeg bort, saa vil jeg sende ham til eder.
8 When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment;
Og naar han kommer, skal han overbevise Verden om Synd og om Retfærdighed og om Dom.
9 about sin, because they do not believe in me;
Om Synd, fordi de ikke tro paa mig;
10 about righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you will not see me any more;
men om Retfærdighed, fordi jeg gaar til min Fader, og I se mig ikke længere;
11 about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.
men om Dom, fordi denne Verdens Fyrste er dømt.
12 “I still have many things to tell you, but you cannot bear them now.
Jeg har endnu meget at sige eder; men I kunne ikke bære det nu.
13 However, when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.
Men naar han, Sandhedens Aand, kommer, skal han vejlede eder til hele Sandheden; thi han skal ikke tale af sig selv, men hvad som helst han hører, skal han tale, og de kommende Ting skal han forkynde eder.
14 He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine and will declare it to you.
Han skal herliggøre mig; thi han skal tage af mit og forkynde eder.
15 All things that the Father has are mine; therefore I said that he takes of mine and will declare it to you.
Alt, hvad Faderen har, er mit; derfor sagde jeg, at han skal tage af mit og forkynde eder.
16 “A little while, and you will not see me. Again a little while, and you will see me.”
Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig længer, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig.‟
17 Some of his disciples therefore said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;’ and, ‘Because I go to the Father’?”
Da sagde nogle af hans Disciple til hverandre: „Hvad er dette, som han siger os: Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig, og: Jeg gaar hen til Faderen?‟
18 They said therefore, “What is this that he says, ‘A little while’? We do not know what he is saying.”
De sagde altsaa: „Hvad er dette, han siger: Om en liden Stund? Vi forstaa ikke, hvad han taler.‟
19 Therefore Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, “Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’?
Jesus vidste, at de vilde spørge ham, og han sagde til dem: „I spørge hverandre om dette, at jeg sagde: Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig.
20 Most certainly I tell you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.
Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, I skulle græde og jamre, men Verden skal glæde sig; I skulle være bedrøvede, men eders Bedrøvelse skal blive til Glæde.
21 A woman, when she gives birth, has sorrow because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she does not remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.
Naar Kvinden føder, har hun Bedrøvelse, fordi hendes Time er kommen; men naar hun har født Barnet, kommer hun ikke mere sin Trængsel i Hu af Glæde over, at et Menneske er født til Verden.
22 Therefore you now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.
Ogsaa I have da vel nu Bedrøvelse, men jeg skal se eder igen, og eders Hjerte skal glædes, og ingen tager eders Glæde fra eder.
23 “In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
Og paa den Dag skulle I ikke spørge mig om noget. Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, hvad som helst I bede Faderen om, skal han give eder i mit Navn.
24 Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.
Hidindtil have I ikke bedet om noget i mit Navn; beder, og I skulle faa, for at eders Glæde maa blive fuldkommen.
25 “I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.
Dette har jeg talt til eder i Lignelser; der kommer en Time, da jeg ikke mere skal tale til eder i Lignelser, men frit ud forkynde eder om Faderen.
26 In that day you will ask in my name; and I do not say to you that I will pray to the Father for you,
Paa den Dag skulle I bede i mit Navn, og jeg siger ikke til eder, at jeg vil bede Faderen for eder;
27 for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.
thi Faderen selv elsker eder, fordi I have elsket mig og troet, at jeg er udgaaet fra Gud.
28 I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”
Jeg udgik fra Faderen og er kommen til Verden; jeg forlader Verden igen og gaar til Faderen.‟
29 His disciples said to him, “Behold, now you are speaking plainly, and using no figures of speech.
Hans Disciple sige til ham: „Se, nu taler du frit ud og siger ingen Lignelse.
30 Now we know that you know all things, and do not need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came from God.”
Nu vide vi, at du ved alle Ting og ikke har nødig, at nogen spørger dig; desaarsag tro vi, at du er udgaaet fra Gud.‟
31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
Jesus svarede dem: „Nu tro I!
32 Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
Se, den Time kommer, og den er kommen, da I skulle adspredes hver til sit og lade mig alene; dog, jeg er ikke alene, thi Faderen er med mig.
33 I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”
Dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I skulle have Fred i mig. I Verden have I Trængsel; men værer frimodige, jeg har overvundet Verden.‟
