Matthew 10
1 And having called to [him] his twelve disciples, he gave them power over unclean spirits, so that they should cast them out, and heal every disease and every bodily weakness.
Og han kaldte sine tolv Disciple til sig og gav dem Magt over urene Aander, til at uddrive dem og at helbrede enhver Sygdom og enhver Skrøbelighed.
2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother;
Og disse ere de tolv Apostles Navne: Først Simon, som kaldes Peter, og Andreas, hans Broder, og Jakob, Zebedæus's Søn, og Johannes, hans Broder,
3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the tax-gatherer; James the [son] of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, who was surnamed Thaddaeus;
Filip og Bartholomæus, Thomas og Tolderen Matthæus, Jakob, Alfæus's Søn, og Lebbæus med Tilnavn Thaddæus,
4 Simon the Cananaean, and Judas the Iscariote, who also delivered him up.
Simon Kananæeren og Judas Iskariot, han, som forraadte ham.
5 These twelve Jesus sent out when he had charged them, saying, Go not off into [the] way of [the] nations, and into a city of Samaritans enter ye not;
Disse tolv udsendte Jesus, bød dem og sagde: „Gaar ikke hen paa Hedningers Vej, og gaar ikke ind i Samaritaners By!
6 but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Men gaar hellere hen til de fortabte Faar af Israels Hus!
7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of the heavens has drawn nigh.
Men paa eders Vandring skulle I prædike og sige: Himmeriges Rige er kommet nær.
8 Heal [the] infirm, [raise the dead], cleanse lepers, cast out demons: ye have received gratuitously, give gratuitously.
Helbreder syge, opvækker døde, renser spedalske, uddriver onde Aander! I have modtaget det for intet, giver det for intet!
9 Do not provide yourselves with gold, or silver, or brass, for your belts,
Skaffer eder ikke Guld, ej heller Sølv, ej heller Kobber i eders Bælter;
10 nor scrip for the way, nor two body coats, nor sandals, nor a staff: for the workman is worthy of his nourishment.
ej Taske til at rejse med, ej heller to Kjortler, ej heller Sko, ej heller Stav; thi Arbejderen er sin Føde værd.
11 But into whatsoever city or village ye enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there remain till ye go forth.
Men hvor I komme ind i en By eller Landsby, der skulle I spørge, hvem i den der er det værd, og der skulle I blive, indtil I drage bort.
12 And as ye enter into a house salute it.
Men naar I gaa ind i Huset, da hilser det;
13 And if the house indeed be worthy, let your peace come upon it; but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
og dersom Huset er det værd, da komme eders Fred over det; men dersom det ikke er det værd, da vende eders Fred tilbage til eder!
14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, as ye go forth out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
Og dersom nogen ikke modtager eder og ej hører eders Ord, da gaar ud af det Hus eller den By og ryster Støvet af eders Fødder!
15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in judgment-day than for that city.
Sandelig, siger jeg eder, det skal gaa Sodomas og Gomorras Land taaleligere paa Dommens Dag end den By.
16 Behold, I send you as sheep in the midst of wolves; be therefore prudent as the serpents, and guileless as the doves.
Se, jeg sender eder som Faar midt iblandt Ulve; vorder derfor snilde som Slanger og enfoldige som Duer!
17 But beware of men; for they will deliver you up to sanhedrims, and scourge you in their synagogues;
Vogter eder for Menneskene; thi de skulle overgive eder til Raadsforsamlinger og hudstryge eder i deres Synagoger.
18 and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
Og I skulle føres for Landshøvdinger og Konger for min Skyld, dem og Hedningerne til et Vidnesbyrd.
19 But when they deliver you up, be not careful how or what ye shall speak; for it shall be given to you in that hour what ye shall speak.
Men naar de overgive eder, da bekymrer eder ikke for, hvorledes eller hvad I skulle tale; thi det skal gives eder i den samme Time, hvad I skulle tale.
20 For ye are not the speakers, but the Spirit of your Father which speaks in you.
Thi I ere ikke de, som tale; men det er eders Faders Aand, som taler i eder.
21 But brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child; and children shall rise up against parents and shall put them to death;
Men Broder skal overgive Broder til Døden, og Fader sit Barn, og Børn skulle sætte sig op imod Forældre og slaa dem ihjel.
22 and ye shall be hated of all on account of my name. But he that has endured to [the] end, he shall be saved.
Og I skulle hades af alle for mit Navns Skyld; men den, som holder ud indtil Enden, han skal blive frelst.
23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee to the other; for verily I say to you, Ye shall not have completed the cities of Israel until the Son of man be come.
Men naar de forfølge eder i een By, da flyr til en anden; thi sandelig, siger jeg eder, I skulle ikke komme til Ende med Israels Byer, førend Menneskesønnen kommer.
24 The disciple is not above his teacher, nor the bondman above his lord.
En Discipel er ikke over sin Mester, ej heller en Tjener over sin Herre.
25 [It is] sufficient for the disciple that he should become as his teacher, and the bondman as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more those of his household?
Det er Discipelen nok, at han bliver som sin Mester, og Tjeneren som sin Herre. Have de kaldet Husbonden Beelzebul, hvor meget mere da hans Husfolk?
26 Fear them not therefore; for there is nothing covered which shall not be revealed, and secret which shall not be known.
Frygter altsaa ikke for dem; thi intet er skjult, som jo skal aabenbares, og intet er lønligt, som jo skal blive kendt.
27 What I say to you in darkness speak in the light, and what ye hear in the ear preach upon the houses.
Taler i Lyset, hvad jeg siger eder i Mørket; og prædiker paa Tagene, hvad der siges eder i Øret!
28 And be not afraid of those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul; but fear rather him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. (Geenna g1067)
Og frygter ikke for dem, som slaa Legemet ihjel, men ikke kunne slaa Sjælen ihjel; men frygter hellere for ham, som kan fordærve baade Sjæl og Legeme i Helvede. (Geenna g1067)
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall to the ground without your Father;
Sælges ikke to Spurve for en Penning? Og ikke een af dem falder til Jorden uden eders Faders Villie.
30 but of you even the hairs of the head are all numbered.
Men paa eder ere endog alle Hovedhaar talte.
31 Fear not therefore; ye are better than many sparrows.
Frygter derfor ikke; I ere mere værd end mange Spurve.
32 Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, I also will confess him before my Father who is in [the] heavens.
Altsaa, enhver som vedkender sig mig for Menneskene, ham vil ogsaa jeg vedkende mig for min Fader, som er i Himlene.
33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in [the] heavens.
Men den, som fornægter mig for Menneskene, ham vil ogsaa jeg fornægte for min Fader, som er i Himlene.
34 Do not think that I have come to send peace upon the earth: I have not come to send peace, but a sword.
Mener ikke, at jeg er kommen for at bringe Fred paa Jorden; jeg er ikke kommen for at bringe Fred, men Sværd.
35 For I have come to set a man at variance with his father, and the daughter with her mother, and the daughter-in-law with her mother-in-law;
Thi jeg er kommen for at volde Splid imellem en Mand og hans Fader og imellem en Datter og hendes Moder og imellem en Svigerdatter og hendes Svigermoder,
36 and they of his household [shall be] a man's enemies.
og en Mands Husfolk skulle være hans Fjender.
37 He who loves father or mother above me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter above me is not worthy of me.
Den, som elsker Fader eller Moder mere end mig, er mig ikke værd; og den, som elsker Søn eller Datter mere end mig, er mig ikke værd;
38 And he who does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.
og den, som ikke tager sit Kors og følger efter mig, er mig ikke værd.
39 He that finds his life shall lose it, and he who has lost his life for my sake shall find it.
Den, som bjærger sit Liv, skal miste det; og den, som mister sit Liv for min Skyld, skal bjærge det.
40 He that receives you receives me, and he that receives me receives him that sent me.
Den, som modtager eder, modtager mig; og den, som modtager mig, modtager ham, som udsendte mig.
41 He that receives a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man, shall receive a righteous man's reward.
Den, som modtager en Profet, fordi han er en Profet, skal faa en Profets Løn; og den, som modtager en retfærdig, fordi han er en retfærdig, skal faa en retfærdigs Løn.
42 And whosoever shall give to drink to one of these little ones a cup of cold [water] only, in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
Og den, som giver en af disse smaa ikkun et Bæger koldt Vand at drikke, fordi han er en Discipel, sandelig, siger jeg eder, han skal ingenlunde miste sin Løn.‟
