< Matthew 15 >

1 Then the scribes and the Pharisees came to him from Jerusalem, saying:
Da kommer der fra Jerusalem Farisæere og skriftkloge til Jesus og sige:
2 “Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.”
„Hvorfor overtræde dine Disciple de gamles Overlevering? thi de to ikke deres Hænder, naar de holde Maaltid.‟
3 But responding, he said to them: “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition? For God said:
Men han svarede og sagde til dem: „Hvorfor overtræde ogsaa I Guds Bud for eders Overleverings Skyld?
4 ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and, ‘Whoever will have cursed father or mother shall die a death.’
Thi Gud har paabudt og sagt: „Ær din Fader og din Moder; ‟ og: „Den, som bander Fader eller Moder, skal visselig dø.‟
5 But you say: ‘If anyone will have said to father or mother, “It is dedicated, so that whatever is from me will benefit you,”
Men I sige: „Den, som siger til sin Fader eller sin Moder: „Det, hvormed du skulde være hjulpet af mig, skal være en Tempelgave, ‟ han skal ingenlunde ære sin Fader eller sin Moder.‟
6 then he shall not honor his father or his mother.’ So have you nullified the commandment of God, for the sake of your tradition.
Og I have ophævet Guds Lov for eders Overleverings Skyld.
7 Hypocrites! How well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying:
I Hyklere! Rettelig profeterede Esajas om eder, da han sagde:
8 ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
„Dette Folk ærer mig med Læberne; men deres Hjerte er langt borte fra mig.
9 For in vain do they worship me, teaching the doctrines and commandments of men.’”
Men de dyrke mig forgæves, idet de lære Lærdomme, som ere Menneskers Bud.‟
10 And having called the multitudes to him, he said to them: “Listen and understand.
Og han kaldte Folkeskaren til sig og sagde til dem: „Hører og forstaar!
11 A man is not defiled by what enters into the mouth, but by what proceeds from the mouth. This is what defiles a man.”
Ikke det, som gaar ind i Munden, gør Mennesket urent, men det, som gaar ud af Munden, dette gør Mennesket urent.‟
12 Then his disciples drew near and said to him, “Do you know that the Pharisees, upon hearing this word, were offended?”
Da kom hans Disciple hen og sagde til ham: „Ved du, at Farisæerne bleve forargede, da de hørte den Tale?‟
13 But in response he said: “Every plant which has not been planted by my heavenly Father shall be uprooted.
Men han svarede og sagde: „Enhver Plantning, som min himmelske Fader ikke har plantet, skal oprykkes med Rode.
14 Leave them alone. They are blind, and they lead the blind. But if the blind are in charge of the blind, both will fall into the pit.”
Lader dem fare, det er blinde Vejledere for blinde; men naar en blind leder en blind, falde de begge i Graven.‟
15 And responding, Peter said to him, “Explain this parable to us.”
Men Peter svarede og sagde til ham: „Forklar os Lignelsen!‟
16 But he said: “Are you, even now, without understanding?
Og han sagde: „Ere ogsaa I endnu saa uforstandige?
17 Do you not understand that everything that enters into the mouth goes into the gut, and is cast into the sewer?
Forstaa I endnu ikke, at alt, hvad der gaar ind i Munden, gaar i Bugen og føres ud ad den naturlige Vej?
18 But what proceeds from the mouth, goes forth from the heart, and those are the things that defile a man.
Men det, som gaar ud af Munden, kommer ud fra Hjertet, og det gør Mennesket urent.
19 For from the heart go out evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, blasphemies.
Thi ud fra Hjertet kommer der onde Tanker, Mord, Hor, Utugt, Tyverier, falske Vidnesbyrd, Forhaanelser.
20 These are the things that defile a man. But to eat without washing hands does not defile a man.”
Det er disse Ting, som gøre Mennesket urent; men at spise med utoede Hænder gør ikke Mennesket urent.‟
21 And departing from there, Jesus withdrew into the areas of Tyre and Sidon.
Og Jesus gik bort derfra og drog til Tyrus's og Sidons Egne.
22 And behold, a woman of Canaan, going out from those parts, cried out, saying to him: “Take pity on me, Lord, Son of David. My daughter is badly afflicted by a demon.”
Og se, en kananæisk Kvinde kom fra disse Egne, raabte og sagde: „Herre, Davids Søn! forbarm dig over mig! min Datter plages ilde af en ond Aand.‟
23 He did not say a word to her. And his disciples, drawing near, petitioned him, saying: “Dismiss her, for she is crying out after us.”
Men han svarede hende ikke et Ord. Da traadte hans Disciple til, bade ham og sagde: „Skil dig af med hende, thi hun raaber efter os.‟
24 And responding, he said, “I was not sent except to the sheep who have fallen away from the house of Israel.”
Men han svarede og sagde: „Jeg er ikke udsendt uden til de fortabte Faar af Israels Hus.‟
25 But she approached and adored him, saying, “Lord, help me.”
Men hun kom og kastede sig ned for ham og sagde: „Herre, hjælp mig!‟
26 And responding, he said, “It is not good to take the bread of the children and cast it to the dogs.”
Men han svarede og sagde: „Det er ikke smukt at tage Børnenes Brød og kaste det for de smaa Hunde.‟
27 But she said, “Yes, Lord, but the young dogs also eat from the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.”
Men hun sagde: „Jo, Herre! de smaa Hunde æde jo dog ogsaa af de Smuler, som falde fra deres Herrers Bord.‟
28 Then Jesus, responding, said to her: “O woman, great is your faith. Let it be done for you just as you wish.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
Da svarede Jesus og sagde til hende: „O Kvinde, din Tro er stor, dig ske, som du vil!‟ Og hendes Datter blev helbredet fra samme Time.
29 And when Jesus had passed from there, he arrived beside the sea of Galilee. And ascending onto a mountain, he sat down there.
Og Jesus gik bort derfra og kom hen til Galilæas Sø, og han gik op paa Bjerget og satte sig der.
30 And great multitudes came to him, having with them the mute, the blind, the lame, the disabled, and many others. And they cast them down at his feet, and he cured them,
Og store Skarer kom til ham og havde lamme, blinde, stumme, Krøblinger og mange andre med sig; og de lagde dem for hans Fødder, og han helbredte dem,
31 so much so that the crowds wondered, seeing the mute speaking, the lame walking, the blind seeing. And they magnified the God of Israel.
saa at Skaren undrede sig, da de saa, at stumme talte, Krøblinger bleve raske, lamme gik, og blinde saa; og de priste Israels Gud.
32 And Jesus, calling together his disciples, said: “I have compassion on the crowds, because they have persevered with me now for three days, and they do not have anything to eat. And I am not willing to dismiss them, fasting, lest they faint along the way.”
Men Jesus kaldte sine Disciple til sig og sagde: „Jeg ynkes inderligt over Skaren; thi de have allerede tøvet hos mig tre Dage og have intet at spise; og lade dem gaa fastende bort vil jeg ikke, for at de ikke skulle vansmægte paa Vejen.‟
33 And the disciples said to him: “From where, then, in the desert, would we obtain enough bread to satisfy so a great multitude?”
Og hans Disciple sige til ham: „Hvorfra skulle vi faa saa mange Brød i en Ørken, at vi kunne mætte saa mange Mennesker?‟
34 And Jesus said to them, “How many loaves of bread do you have?” But they said, “Seven, and a few little fish.”
Og Jesus siger til dem: „Hvor mange Brød have I?‟ Men de sagde: „Syv og nogle faa Smaafisk.‟
35 And he instructed the crowds to recline upon the ground.
Og han bød Skaren at sætte sig ned paa Jorden
36 And taking the seven loaves and the fish, and giving thanks, he broke and gave to his disciples, and the disciples gave to the people.
og tog de syv Brød og Fiskene, takkede, brød dem og gav Disciplene dem, og Disciplene gave dem til Skarerne.
37 And they all ate and were satisfied. And, from what was left over of the fragments, they took up seven full baskets.
Og de spiste alle og bleve mætte; og de opsamlede det, som blev tilovers af Stykkerne, syv Kurve fulde.
38 But those who ate were four thousand men, plus children and women.
Men de, som spiste, vare fire Tusinde Mænd, foruden Kvinder og Børn.
39 And having dismissed the crowd, he climbed into a boat. And he went into the coastal region of Magadan.
Og da han havde ladet Skarerne gaa bort, gik han om Bord i Skibet og kom til Magadans Egne.
