John 18
1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples over the wadi of the Kidron, where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples entered.
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 Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.
Men ogsaa Judas, som forraadte ham, kendte Stedet; thi Jesus samledes ofte der med sine Disciple.
3 Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
Saa tager Judas Vagtafdelingen og Svende fra Ypperstepræsterne og Farisæerne og kommer derhen med Fakler og Lamper og Vaaben.
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went forth, and said to them, "Who are you looking for?"
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 the Nazorean." Jesus said to them, "I AM." Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
De svarede ham: „Jesus af Nazareth.‟ Jesus siger til dem: „Det er mig.‟ Men ogsaa Judas, som forraadte ham, stod hos dem.
6 When therefore he said to them, "I AM," 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, "Who are you looking for?" They said, "Jesus the Nazorean."
Han spurgte dem nu atter: „Hvem lede I efter?‟ Men de sagde: „Jesus af Nazareth.‟
8 Jesus answered, "I told you that I AM. 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, saa lader disse gaa!‟
9 that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, "Of those whom you have given me, I have lost none."
for at det Ord skulde opfyldes, som han havde sagt: „Jeg mistede ingen af dem, som du har givet mig.‟
10 Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name 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 the sword into its sheath. Am I not to drink the cup which the Father has given me?"
Da sagde Jesus til Peter: „Stik dit Sværd i Skeden! Skal jeg ikke drikke den Kalk, som min Fader har givet mig?‟
12 So the detachment, the commanding officer, and the officers of the Jewish leaders, seized Jesus and bound him,
Vagtafdelingen og Krigsøversten og Jødernes Svende grebe da Jesus og bandt ham.
13 and led him to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
Og de førte ham først til Annas; thi han var Svigerfader til Kajfas, som var Ypperstepræst i det Aar.
14 Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jewish leaders that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
Men det var Kajfas, som havde givet Jøderne det Raad, at det var gavnligt, at eet Menneske døde for Folket.
15 Simon Peter followed Jesus, as did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered 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 Gaard.
16 but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, 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 Then the maid who kept the door said to Peter, "Are you also one of this man's disciples?" He said, "I am not."
Pigen, som var Dørvogterske, siger da til Peter: „Er ogsaa du af dette Menneskes Disciple?‟ Han siger: „Nej, jeg er ikke.‟
18 Now the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold. They were warming themselves. Peter was with them, standing and warming himself.
Men Tjenerne og Svendene stode og havde gjort en Kulild (thi det var koldt) og varmede sig; men ogsaa Peter stod hos dem og varmede sig.
19 The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his teaching.
Ypperstepræsten spurgte nu Jesus om hans Disciple og om hans Lære.
20 Jesus answered him, "I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jewish people come together. I said nothing in secret.
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 do you ask me? Ask those who have heard what I spoke to them; surely they know what I said."
Hvorfor spørger du mig? Spørg dem, som have hørt, hvad jeg talte til dem; se, de vide, hvad jeg har sagt.‟
22 When he had said this, one of the officers standing by slapped Jesus with his hand, saying, "Do you answer the high priest like that?"
Men som han sagde dette, gav en af Svendene, som stod hos, Jesus et Slag i Ansigtet og sagde: „Svarer du Ypperstepræsten saaledes?‟
23 Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?"
Jesus svarede ham: „Har jeg talt ilde, da bevis, at det er ondt; men har jeg talt ret, hvorfor slaar du mig da?‟
24 Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.
Annas sendte ham nu bunden til Ypperstepræsten Kajfas.
25 Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, "You are not also one of his disciples, are you?" He denied it, and said, "I am not."
Men Simon Peter stod og varmede sig. Da sagde de til ham: „Er ogsaa du af hans Disciple?‟ Han nægtede det og sagde: „Nej, jeg er ikke.‟
26 One of the servants of the high priest, being a relative of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?"
En af Ypperstepræstens Tjenere, som var en Frænde af ham, hvis Øre Peter havde afhugget, siger: „Saa jeg dig ikke i Haven med ham?‟
27 Peter therefore denied it again, and immediately the rooster crowed.
Da nægtede Peter det atter, og straks galede Hanen.
28 They led Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early, and they themselves did not enter into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.
De føre nu Jesus fra Kajfas til Landshøvdingens Borg; men det var aarle. Og de gik ikke ind i Borgen, for at de ikke skulde besmittes, men kunde spise Paaske.
29 Pilate therefore went out to them, and said, "What accusation do you bring against this man?"
Pilatus gik da ud til dem, og han siger: „Hvad Klagemaal føre I mod dette Menneske?‟
30 They answered him, "If this man weren't an evildoer, we would not have delivered him up to you."
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 yourselves, and judge him according to your law." Therefore the Jewish leaders said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put anyone 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 spoke, signifying by what kind of 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 entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"
Da gik Pilatus igen ind i Borgen og kaldte paa Jesus og sagde til ham: „Er du Jødernes Konge?‟
34 Jesus answered him, "Do you say this by yourself, or did others tell you about me?"
Jesus svarede: „Siger du dette af dig selv, eller have andre sagt dig det om mig?‟
35 Pilate answered, "I'm not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered you to me. What have you 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, then my servants would fight, that I would not be delivered to the Jewish leaders. But now my Kingdom is not from here."
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, "Are you a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this reason I have been born, and for this reason I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice."
Da sagde Pilatus til ham: „Du er altsaa 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 said to him, "What is truth?" When he had said this, he went out again to the Jewish leaders, and said to them, "I find no basis for a charge against 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 someone to you at the Passover. Therefore do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?"
Men I have den Skik, at jeg løslader eder en om Paasken; ville I da, at jeg skal løslade eder Jødernes Konge?‟
40 Then they shouted again, saying, "Not this man, but Barabbas." Now Barabbas was a robber.
Da raabte de alle igen og sagde: „Ikke ham, men Barabbas; ‟ og Barabbas var en Røver.
