John 18
1 When Jesus had said these things, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where there was a garden, into which he entered with his disciples.
Da Jesus havde sagt dette, gik han ud med sine Disciple over Kedrons Bæk, hvor der var en Have, i hvilken han gik ind med sine Disciple.
2 And Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place; because Jesus had often resorted thither together with his disciples.
Men også Judas, som forrådte ham, kendte Stedet; thi Jesus samledes ofte der med sine Disciple.
3 Judas therefore having received a band of soldiers and servants from the chief priests and the Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.
Så tager Judas Vagtafdelingen og Svende fra Ypperstepræsterne og Farisæerne og kommer derhen med Fakler og Lamper og Våben.
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said to them: Whom seek ye?
Da nu Jesus vidste alt, hvad der skulde komme over ham, gik han frem og sagde til dem: "Hvem lede I efter?"
5 They answered him: Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith to them: I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them.
De svarede ham: "Jesus af Nazareth." Jesus siger til dem: "Det er mig." Men også Judas, som forrådte ham, stod hos dem.
6 As soon therefore as he had said to them: I am he; they went backward, and fell to the ground.
Som han da sagde til dem: "Det er mig," vege de tilbage og faldt til Jorden.
7 Again therefore he asked them: Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
Han spurgte dem nu atter: "Hvem lede I efter?" Men de sagde: "Jesus af Nazareth."
8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way.
Jesus svarede: "Jeg har sagt eder, at det er mig; dersom I da lede efter mig, så lader disse gå!"
9 That the word might be fulfilled which he said: Of them whom thou hast given me, I have not lost any one.
for at det Ord skulde opfyldes, som han havde sagt: "Jeg mistede ingen af dem, som du har givet mig."
10 Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And the name of the servant was Malchus.
Simon Peter, som havde et Sværd, drog det nu og slog Ypperstepræstens Tjener og afhuggede hans højre Øre. Men Tjeneren hed Malkus.
11 Jesus therefore said to Peter: Put up thy sword into the scabbard. The chalice which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
Da sagde Jesus til Peter: "Stik dit Sværd i Skeden! Skal jeg ikke drikke den Kalk, som min Fader har givet mig?"
12 Then the band and the tribune, and the servants of the Jews, took Jesus, and bound him:
Vagtafdelingen og Krigsøversten og Jødernes Svende grebe da Jesus og bandt ham.
13 And they led him away to Annas first, for he was father in law to Caiphas, who was the high priest of that year.
Og de førte ham først til Annas; thi han var Svigerfader til Kajfas, som var Ypperstepræst i det År.
14 Now Caiphas was he who had given the counsel to the Jews: That it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
Men det var Kajfas, som havde givet Jøderne det Råd, at det var gavnligt, at eet Menneske døde for Folket.
15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. And that disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest.
Men Simon Peter og en anden Discipel fulgte Jesus, og den Discipel var kendt med Ypperstepræsten, og han gik ind med Jesus i Ypperstepræstens Gård.
16 But Peter stood at the door without. The other disciple therefore, who was known to the high priest, went out, and spoke to the portress, and brought in Peter.
Men Peter stod udenfor ved Døren. Da gik den anden Discipel, som var kendt med Ypperstepræsten, ud og sagde det til Dørvogtersken og førte Peter ind.
17 The maid therefore that was portress, saith to Peter: Art not thou also one of this man’s disciples? He saith: I am not.
Pigen, som var Dørvogterske, siger da til Peter: "Er også du af dette Menneskes Disciple?" Han siger: "Nej, jeg er ikke."
18 Now the servants and ministers stood at a fire of coals, because it was cold, and warmed themselves. And with them was Peter also, standing, and warming himself.
Men Tjenerne og Svendene stode og havde gjort en Kulild (thi det var koldt) og varmede sig; men også Peter stod hos dem og varmede sig.
19 The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.
Ypperstepræsten spurgte nu Jesus om hans Disciple og om hans Lære.
20 Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world: I have always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither all the Jews resort; and in secret I have spoken nothing.
Jesus svarede ham: "Jeg har talt frit ud til Verden; jeg har altid lært i Synagoger og i Helligdommen, der, hvor alle Jøderne komme sammen, og i Løndom har jeg intet talt.
21 Why asketh thou me? ask them who have heard what I have spoken unto them: behold they know what things I have said.
Hvorfor spørger du mig? Spørg dem, som have hørt, hvad jeg talte til dem; se, de vide, hvad jeg har sagt."
22 And when he had said these things, one of the servants standing by, gave Jesus a blow, saying: Answerest thou the high priest so?
Men som han sagde dette, gav en af Svendene, som stode hos, Jesus et Slag i Ansigtet og sagde: "Svarer du Ypperstepræsten således?"
23 Jesus answered him: If I have spoken evil, give testimony of the evil; but if well, why strikest thou me?
Jesus svarede ham: "Har jeg talt ilde, da bevis, at det er ondt: men har jeg talt ret, hvorfor slår du mig da?"
24 And Annas sent him bound to Caiphas the high priest.
Annas sendte ham nu bunden til Ypperstepræsten Kajfas.
25 And Simon Peter was standing, and warming himself. They said therefore to him: Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said: I am not.
Men Simon Peter stod og varmede sig. Da sagde de til ham: "Er også du af hans Disciple?" Han nægtede det og sagde: "Nej, jeg er ikke."
26 One of the servants of the high priest (a kinsman to him whose ear Peter cut off) saith to him: Did I not see thee in the garden with him?
En af Ypperstepræstens Tjenere, som var en Frænde af ham, hvis Øre Peter havde afhugget, siger: "Så jeg dig ikke i Haven med ham?"
27 Again therefore Peter denied; and immediately the cock crew.
Da nægtede Peter det atter, og straks galede Hanen.
28 Then they led Jesus from Caiphas to the governor’s hall. And it was morning; and they went not into the hall, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the pasch.
De føre nu Jesus fra Kajfas til Landshøvdingens Borg; men det var årle. Og de gik ikke ind i Borgen, for at de ikke skulde besmittes, men kunde spise Påske,
29 Pilate therefore went out to them, and said: What accusation bring you against this man?
Pilatus gik da ud til dem, og han siger: "Hvad Klagemål føre I mod dette Menneske?"
30 They answered, and said to him: If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up to thee.
De svarede og sagde til ham: "Var han ikke en Ugerningsmand, da havde vi ikke overgivet ham til dig."
31 Pilate therefore said to them: Take him you, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him: It is not lawful for us to put any man to death;
Da sagde Pilatus til dem: "Tager I ham og dømmer ham efter eders Lov!" Da sagde Jøderne til ham: "Det er os ikke tilladt at aflive nogen; "
32 That the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he said, signifying what death he should die.
for at Jesu Ord skulde opfyldes, det, som han sagde, da han gav til Kende, hvilken Død han skulde dø.
33 Pilate therefore went into the hall again, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews?
Da gik Pilatus igen ind i Borgen og kaldte på Jesus og sagde til ham: "Er du Jødernes Konge?"
34 Jesus answered: Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of me?
Jesus svarede: "Siger du dette af dig selv, eller have andre sagt dig det om mig?"
35 Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Thy own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done?
Pilatus svarede: "Mon jeg er en Jøde? dit Folk og Ypperstepræsterne have overgivet dig til mig; hvad har du gjort?"
36 Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.
Jesus svarede: "Mit Rige er ikke af denne Verden. Var mit Rige af denne verden, havde mine Tjenere stridt for, at jeg ikke var bleven overgiven til Jøderne; men nu er mit Rige ikke deraf."
37 Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice.
Da sagde Pilatus til ham: "Du er altså dog en Konge?" Jesus svarede: "Du siger det, jeg er en Konge. Jeg er dertil født og dertil kommen til Verden, at jeg skal vidne om Sandheden. Hver den, som er af Sandheden, hører min Røst."
38 Pilate saith to him: What is truth? And when he said this, he went out again to the Jews, and saith to them: I find no cause in him.
Pilatus siger til ham: "Hvad er Sandhed?" Og da han havde sagt dette, gik han igen ud til Jøderne, og han siger til dem: "Jeg finder ingen Skyld hos ham.
39 But you have a custom that I should release one unto you at the pasch: will you, therefore, that I release unto you the king of the Jews?
Men I have den Skik, at jeg løslade eder en om Påsken; ville I da, at jeg skal løslade eder Jødernes Konge?"
40 Then cried they all again, saying: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
Da råbte de alle igen og sagde: "Ikke ham, men Barabbas;" og Barabbas var en Røver.
