Matthew 19
1 And it came to pass when Jesus had ended these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judea, beyond Jordan.
Og det skete, da Jesus havde fuldendt disse Ord, drog han bort fra Galilæa og kom til Judæas Egne, hinsides Jordan.
2 And great multitudes followed him: and he healed them there.
Og store Skarer fulgte ham, og han helbredte dem der.
3 And there came to him the Pharisees tempting him, and saying: Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
Og Farisæerne kom til ham, fristede ham og sagde: „Er det tilladt at skille sig fra sin Hustru af hvilken som helst Grund?‟
4 Who answering, said to them: Have ye not read, that he who made man from the beginning, Made them male and female? And he said:
Men han svarede og sagde: „Have I ikke læst, at Skaberen fra Begyndelsen skabte dem som Mand og Kvinde
5 For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be in one flesh.
og sagde: „Derfor skal en Mand forlade sin Fader og sin Moder og holde sig til sin Hustru, og de to skulle blive til eet Kød?‟
6 Therefore now they are not two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.
Saaledes ere de ikke længer to, men eet Kød. Derfor, hvad Gud har sammenføjet, maa et Menneske ikke adskille.‟
7 They say to him: Why then did Moses command to give a bill of divorce, and to put away?
De sige til ham: „Hvorfor bød da Moses at give et Skilsmissebrev og skille sig fra hende?‟
8 He saith to them: Because Moses by reason of the hardness of your heart permitted you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
Han siger til dem: „Moses tilstedte eder at skille eder fra eders Hustruer for eders Hjerters Haardheds Skyld; men fra Begyndelsen har det ikke været saaledes.
9 And I say to you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that shall marry her that is put away, committeth adultery.
Men jeg siger eder, at den, som skiller sig fra sin Hustru, naar det ikke er for Hors Skyld, og tager en anden til Ægte, han bedriver Hor; og den, som tager en fraskilt Hustru til Ægte, han bedriver Hor.‟
10 His disciples say unto him: If the case of a man with his wife be so, it is not expedient to marry.
Hans Disciple sige til ham: „Staar Mandens Sag med Hustruen saaledes, da er det ikke godt at gifte sig.‟
11 Who said to them: All men take not this word, but they to whom it is given.
Men han sagde til dem: „Ikke alle rumme dette Ord, men de, hvem det er givet:
12 For there are eunuchs, who were born so from their mother’s womb: and there are eunuchs, who were made so by men: and there are eunuchs, who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven. He that can take, let him take it.
Thi der er Gildinger, som ere fødte saaledes fra Moders Liv; og der er Gildinger, som ere gildede af Mennesker; og der er Gildinger, som have gildet sig selv for Himmeriges Riges Skyld. Den, som kan rumme det, han rumme det!‟
13 Then were little children presented to him, that he should impose hands upon them and pray. And the disciples rebuked them.
Da blev der baaret smaa Børn til ham, for at han skulde lægge Hænderne paa dem og bede; men Disciplene truede dem.
14 But Jesus said to them: Suffer the little children, and forbid them not to come to me: for the kingdom of heaven is for such.
Da sagde Jesus: „Lader de smaa Børn komme, og formener dem ikke at komme til mig; thi Himmeriges Rige hører saadanne til.‟
15 And when he had imposed hands upon them, he departed from thence.
Og han lagde Hænderne paa dem, og han drog derfra.
16 And behold one came and said to him: Good master, what good shall I do that I may have life everlasting? (aiōnios g166)
Og se, en kom til ham og sagde: „Mester! hvad godt skal jeg gøre, for at jeg kan faa et evigt Liv?‟ (aiōnios g166)
17 Who said to him: Why asketh thou me concerning good? One is good, God. But if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
Men han sagde til ham: „Hvorfor spørger du mig om det gode? Een er den gode. Men vil du indgaa til Livet, da hold Budene!‟
18 He said to him: Which? And Jesus said: Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness.
Han siger til ham: „Hvilke?‟ Men Jesus sagde: „Dette: Du maa ikke slaa ihjel; du maa ikke bedrive Hor; du maa ikke stjæle; du maa ikke sige falsk Vidnesbyrd;
19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
ær din Fader og din Moder, og: Du skal elske din Næste som dig selv.‟
20 The young man saith to him: All these I have kept from my youth, what is yet wanting to me?
Den unge Mand siger til ham: „Det har jeg holdt alt sammen; hvad fattes mig endnu?‟
21 Jesus saith to him: If thou wilt be perfect, go sell what thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come follow me.
Jesus sagde til ham: „Vil du være fuldkommen, da gaa bort, sælg, hvad du ejer, og giv det til fattige, saa skal du have en Skat i Himmelen; og kom saa og følg mig!‟
22 And when the young man had heard this word, he went away sad: for he had great possessions.
Men da den unge Mand hørte det Ord, gik han bedrøvet bort; thi han havde meget Gods.
23 Then Jesus said to his disciples: Amen, I say to you, that a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Men Jesus sagde til sine Disciple: „Sandelig siger jeg eder: En rig kommer vanskeligt ind i Himmeriges Rige.
24 And again I say to you: It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Atter siger jeg eder: Det er lettere for en Kamel at gaa igennem et Naaleøje end for en rig at gaa ind i Guds Rige.‟
25 And when they had heard this, the disciples wondered very much, saying: Who then can be saved?
Men da Disciplene hørte dette, forfærdedes de saare og sagde: „Hvem kan da blive frelst?‟
26 And Jesus beholding, said to them: With men this is impossible: but with God all things are possible.
Men Jesus saa paa dem og sagde: „For Mennesker er dette umuligt, men for Gud ere alle Ting mulige.‟
27 Then Peter answering, said to him: Behold we have left all things, and have followed thee: what therefore shall we have?
Da svarede Peter og sagde til ham: „Se, vi have forladt alle Ting og fulgt dig; hvad skulle da vi have?‟
28 And Jesus said to them: Amen, I say to you, that you, who have followed me, in the regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit on the seat of his majesty, you also shall sit on twelve seats judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Men Jesus sagde til dem: „Sandelig siger jeg eder, at i Igenfødelsen, naar Menneskesønnen sidder paa sin Herligheds Trone, skulle ogsaa I, som have fulgt mig, sidde paa tolv Troner og dømme Israels tolv Stammer.
29 And every one that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands for my name’s sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall possess life everlasting. (aiōnios g166)
Og hver, som har forladt Hus eller Brødre eller Søstre eller Fader eller Moder eller Hustru eller Børn eller Marker for mit Navns Skyld, skal faa det mange Fold igen og arve et evigt Liv. (aiōnios g166)
30 And many that are first, shall be last: and the last shall be first.
Men mange af de første skulle blive de sidste, og af de sidste de første.
