Mark 8
1 In those days the crowd once again became very large, and they had nothing to eat. Jesus called the disciples to Him and said,
I de Dage, da der atter var en stor Skare, og de intet havde at spise, kaldte han sine Disciple til sig og siger til dem:
2 “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat.
„Jeg ynkes inderligt over Skaren; thi de have allerede tøvet hos mig i tre Dage og have intet at spise.
3 If I send them home hungry, they will faint along the way. For some of them have come a great distance.”
Og dersom jeg lader dem gaa fastende hjem, ville de vansmægte paa Vejen, og nogle af dem ere komne langvejsfra.”
4 His disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could anyone find enough bread to feed all these people?”
Og hans Disciple svarede ham: „Hvorfra skal nogen kunne mætte disse med Brød her i en Ørken?”
5 “How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied.
Og han spurgte dem: „Hvor mange Brød have I?” Og de sagde: „Syv.”
6 And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then He took the seven loaves, gave thanks and broke them, and gave them to His disciples to set before the people. And they distributed them to the crowd.
Og han byder Skaren at sætte sig ned paa Jorden; og han tog de syv Brød, takkede, brød dem og gav sine Disciple dem, at de skulde lægge dem for; og de lagde dem for Skaren.
7 They also had a few small fish, and Jesus blessed them and ordered that these be set before them as well.
Og de havde nogle faa Smaafisk; og han velsignede dem og sagde, at ogsaa disse skulde lægges for.
8 The people ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
Og de spiste og bleve mætte; og de opsamlede af tiloversblevne Stykker syv Kurve.
9 And about four thousand men were present. As soon as Jesus had dismissed the crowd,
Men de vare omtrent fire Tusinde; og han lod dem gaa bort.
10 He got into the boat with His disciples and went to the district of Dalmanutha.
Og straks gik han om Bord i Skibet med sine Disciple og kom til Dalmanuthas Egne.
11 Then the Pharisees came and began to argue with Jesus, testing Him by demanding from Him a sign from heaven.
Og Farisæerne gik ud og begyndte at strides med ham og forlangte af ham et Tegn fra Himmelen for at friste ham.
12 Jesus sighed deeply in His spirit and said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
Og han sukkede dybt i sin Aand og siger: „Hvorfor forlanger denne Slægt et Tegn? Sandelig, siger jeg eder, der skal ikke gives denne Slægt noget Tegn!”
13 And He left them, got back into the boat, and crossed to the other side.
Og han forlod dem og gik atter om Bord og for over til hin Side.
14 Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat.
Og de havde glemt at tage Brød med og havde kun eet Brød med sig i Skibet.
15 “Watch out!” He cautioned them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of Herod.”
Og han bød dem og sagde: „Ser til, tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes Surdejg og Herodes's Surdejg!”
16 So they began to discuss with one another the fact that they had no bread.
Og de tænkte med hverandre: „Det er, fordi vi ikke have Brød.”
17 Aware of their conversation, Jesus asked them, “Why are you debating about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Do you have such hard hearts?
Og da han mærkede dette, siger han til dem: „Hvorfor tænke I paa, at I ikke have Brød? Skønne I ikke endnu, og forstaa I ikke? Er eders Hjerte forhærdet?
18 ‘Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?’ And do you not remember?
Have I Øjne og se ikke? Og have I Øren og høre ikke? Og komme I ikke i Hu?
19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Twelve,” they answered.
Da jeg brød de fem Brød til de fem Tusinde, hvor mange Kurve fulde af Stykker toge I da op?” De sige til ham: „Tolv.”
20 “And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Seven,” they said.
„Og da jeg brød de syv til de fire Tusinde, hvor mange Kurve fulde af Stykker toge I da op?” Og de sige til ham: „Syv.”
21 Then He asked them, “Do you still not understand?”
Og han sagde til dem: „Hvorledes forstaa I da ikke?”
22 When they arrived at Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him.
Og de komme til Bethsajda. Og man fører en blind til ham og beder ham om, at han vil røre ved ham.
23 So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then He spit on the man’s eyes and placed His hands on him. “Can you see anything?” He asked.
Og han tog den blinde ved Haanden og førte ham uden for Landsbyen og spyttede paa hans Øjne og lagde Hænderne paa ham og spurgte ham, om han saa noget.
24 The man looked up and said, “I can see the people, but they look like trees walking around.”
Og han saa op og sagde: „Jeg ser Menneskene; thi jeg ser noget ligesom Træer gaa omkring.”
25 Once again Jesus placed His hands on the man’s eyes, and when he opened them his sight was restored, and he could see everything clearly.
Derefter lagde han atter Hænderne paa hans Øjne, og han blev klarsynet og var helbredet og kunde se alle Ting tydeligt.
26 Jesus sent him home and said, “Do not go back into the village.”
Og han sendte ham hjem og sagde: „Du maa ikke gaa ind i Landsbyen, [ej heller sige det til nogen i Landsbyen.”]
27 Then Jesus and His disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say I am?”
Og Jesus og hans Disciple gik ud til Landsbyerne ved Kæsarea Filippi; og paa Vejen spurgte han sine Disciple og sagde til dem: „Hvem sige Menneskene, at jeg er?”
28 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”
Og de sagde til ham: „Johannes Døberen; og andre: Elias; men andre: En af Profeterne.”
29 “But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
Og han spurgte dem: „Men I, hvem sige I, at jeg er?” Peter svarede og siger til ham: „Du er Kristus.”
30 And Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about Him.
Og han bød dem strengt, at de ikke maatte sige nogen dette om ham.
31 Then He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and after three days rise again.
Og han begyndte at lære dem, at Menneskesønnen skulde lide meget og forkastes af de Ældste og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge og ihjelslaas og opstaa efter tre Dage.
32 He spoke this message quite frankly, and Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.
Og han talte dette frit ud. Og Peter tog ham til Side og begyndte at sætte ham i Rette.
33 But Jesus, turning and looking at His disciples, rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind Me, Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”
Men han vendte sig og saa paa sine Disciple og irettesatte Peter og siger: „Vig bag mig, Satan! thi du sanser ikke, hvad Guds er, men hvad Menneskers er.”
34 Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples, and He told them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.
Og han kaldte Skaren tillige med sine Disciple til sig og sagde til dem: „Den, som vil følge efter mig, han fornægte sig selv og tage sit Kors op og følge mig!
35 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and for the gospel will save it.
Thi den, som vil frelse sit Liv, skal miste det; men den, som mister sit Liv for min og Evangeliets Skyld, han skal frelse det.
36 What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?
Thi hvad gavner det et Menneske at vinde den hele Verden og at bøde med sin Sjæl?
37 Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?
Thi hvad kunde et Menneske give til Vederlag for sin Sjæl?
38 If anyone is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in His Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
Thi den, som skammer sig ved mig og mine Ord i denne utro og syndige Slægt, ved ham skal ogsaa Menneskesønnen skamme sig, naar han kommer i sin Faders Herlighed med de hellige Engle.”
