Mark 8
1 IN those days the multitude being exceedingly great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus calling his disciples to him, said unto them,
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 on the multitude, for they have stayed with me already 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 and if I send them away fasting to their houses, they will faint on the road; for many of them came from 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 answered him, Whence can a man here in the desert satisfy these with bread?
Og hans Disciple svarede ham: „Hvorfra skal nogen kunne mætte disse med Brød her i en Ørken?”
5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
Og han spurgte dem: „Hvor mange Brød have I?” Og de sagde: „Syv.”
6 And he commanded the multitude to recline in order on the ground: and taking the seven loaves, having given thanks he brake them, and gave to his disciples, that they should set before the people; and they distributed them to the multitude.
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 And they had a few small fishes; and blessing, he commanded to set these also before them.
Og de havde nogle faa Smaafisk; og han velsignede dem og sagde, at ogsaa disse skulde lægges for.
8 And they did eat and were filled and they took up what remained of the fragments, seven baskets.
Og de spiste og bleve mætte; og de opsamlede af tiloversblevne Stykker syv Kurve.
9 And the persons who had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
Men de vare omtrent fire Tusinde; og han lod dem gaa bort.
10 And immediately going into the vessel with his disciples, he came into the coasts of Dalmanutha.
Og straks gik han om Bord i Skibet med sine Disciple og kom til Dalmanuthas Egne.
11 Then the Pharisees came out, and began to question him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
Og Farisæerne gik ud og begyndte at strides med ham og forlangte af ham et Tegn fra Himmelen for at friste ham.
12 And fetching a deep sigh from his very soul, he saith, Why seeketh this generation a sign? verily I tell you, no sign shall 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 leaving them, going again on board the vessel, he departed to the other side.
Og han forlod dem og gik atter om Bord og for over til hin Side.
14 And they had forgotten to take bread, and had not with them in the vessel but a single loaf.
Og de havde glemt at tage Brød med og havde kun eet Brød med sig i Skibet.
15 And he earnestly charged them, saying, Beware, take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
Og han bød dem og sagde: „Ser til, tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes Surdejg og Herodes's Surdejg!”
16 And they talked the matter over among themselves, saying, This is because we have no loaves of bread.
Og de tænkte med hverandre: „Det er, fordi vi ikke have Brød.”
17 And Jesus knowing it said unto them, Why reason ye together, because ye have no loaves? Do ye not yet consider, nor understand? Have ye your heart yet hardened?
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 ye not see? and having ears, do ye not hear? and do ye 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 among the five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.
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 the seven loaves among the four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They said, Seven.
„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 And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?
Og han sagde til dem: „Hvorledes forstaa I da ikke?”
22 And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring him a blind man, and entreat him that he would 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 And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him without the city; and spitting on his eyes, he laid his hands upon him, and asked him if he saw aught.
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 And looking up, he said, I see men walking, as trees.
Og han saa op og sagde: „Jeg ser Menneskene; thi jeg ser noget ligesom Træer gaa omkring.”
25 Then again he put his hands upon his eyes, and made him look up again: and he was entirely restored, and saw all men distinctly.
Derefter lagde han atter Hænderne paa hans Øjne, og han blev klarsynet og var helbredet og kunde se alle Ting tydeligt.
26 And he sent him away unto his own house, saying, Neither enter thou into the city, nor speak to any in the city.
Og han sendte ham hjem og sagde: „Du maa ikke gaa ind i Landsbyen, [ej heller sige det til nogen i Landsbyen.”]
27 And Jesus and his disciples went out into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and on the road he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that 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 And they answered, John the Baptist: others say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.
Og de sagde til ham: „Johannes Døberen; og andre: Elias; men andre: En af Profeterne.”
29 And he said unto them, But who do ye say that I am? Then Peter answering, said unto him, Thou art the Messiah.
Og han spurgte dem: „Men I, hvem sige I, at jeg er?” Peter svarede og siger til ham: „Du er Kristus.”
30 And he strictly enjoined them, that they should tell no man of this.
Og han bød dem strengt, at de ikke maatte sige nogen dette om ham.
31 And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and be slain, 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 And he spake this saying openly. And Peter taking him aside, began to remonstrate with him.
Og han talte dette frit ud. Og Peter tog ham til Side og begyndte at sætte ham i Rette.
33 But he turned himself around, and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou dost not relish the things which are of God, but those that are 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 calling to him the multitude, with his disciples, he said to them, Whosoever will come after me, let him 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 whosoever would preserve his life shall lose it; but whosoever would lose his life for my sake and the Gospel, he shall preserve 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 For what would it profit a man, though he should gain the whole world, if he be punished with the loss of his own soul?
Thi hvad gavner det et Menneske at vinde den hele Verden og at bøde med sin Sjæl?
37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Thi hvad kunde et Menneske give til Vederlag for sin Sjæl?
38 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, before this adulterous and sinful generation; of him will the Son of man also be ashamed, when he shall come in the glory of his Father, 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.”
