< Mark 8 >

1 In those days, when there was a large crowd, and they had nothing to eat, he called the disciples to himself, and said to 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 crowd, because they have stayed with me now 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 If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, and some of them have come a long way."
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, "From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?"
Og hans Disciple svarede ham: „Hvorfra skal nogen kunne mætte disse med Brød her i en Ørken?”
5 He asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven."
Og han spurgte dem: „Hvor mange Brød have I?” Og de sagde: „Syv.”
6 He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them, and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the crowd.
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 They had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.
Og de havde nogle faa Smaafisk; og han velsignede dem og sagde, at ogsaa disse skulde lægges for.
8 They ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
Og de spiste og bleve mætte; og de opsamlede af tiloversblevne Stykker syv Kurve.
9 Now they were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
Men de vare omtrent fire Tusinde; og han lod dem gaa bort.
10 Immediately he entered into the boat with his disciples, and came into the region of Dalmanutha.
Og straks gik han om Bord i Skibet med sine Disciple og kom til Dalmanuthas Egne.
11 The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, and testing him.
Og Farisæerne gik ud og begyndte at strides med ham og forlangte af ham et Tegn fra Himmelen for at friste ham.
12 He sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will 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 he left them, and got into the boat again, and went to the other side.
Og han forlod dem og gik atter om Bord og for over til hin Side.
14 Now they forgot to take bread; and they did not have more than one loaf in the boat with them.
Og de havde glemt at tage Brød med og havde kun eet Brød med sig i Skibet.
15 He warned them, saying, "Watch out; guard yourselves against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod."
Og han bød dem og sagde: „Ser til, tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes Surdejg og Herodes's Surdejg!”
16 And they began discussing among themselves that they had no bread.
Og de tænkte med hverandre: „Det er, fordi vi ikke have Brød.”
17 He, perceiving it, said to them, "Why do you reason that it's because you have no bread? Do you not perceive yet, neither understand? Are your hearts 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 you not see? Having ears, do you not hear? Do you 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 broken pieces did you take up?" They told 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 "When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?" And 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 He asked them, "Do you not yet understand?"
Og han sagde til dem: „Hvorledes forstaa I da ikke?”
22 He came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to him, and begged Jesus to 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 He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spit on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
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 He looked up, and said, "I see people; they look like trees walking."
Og han saa op og sagde: „Jeg ser Menneskene; thi jeg ser noget ligesom Træer gaa omkring.”
25 Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He made him look up, and was restored, and saw everything clearly.
Derefter lagde han atter Hænderne paa hans Øjne, og han blev klarsynet og var helbredet og kunde se alle Ting tydeligt.
26 He sent him away to his house, saying, "Do not enter into the village."
Og han sendte ham hjem og sagde: „Du maa ikke gaa ind i Landsbyen, [ej heller sige det til nogen i Landsbyen.”]
27 Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, "Who do people 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 said to him, saying, "John the Baptist, and others say Elijah, but others: one of the prophets."
Og de sagde til ham: „Johannes Døberen; og andre: Elias; men andre: En af Profeterne.”
29 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said to him, "You are the Christ."
Og han spurgte dem: „Men I, hvem sige I, at jeg er?” Peter svarede og siger til ham: „Du er Kristus.”
30 He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.
Og han bød dem strengt, at de ikke maatte sige nogen dette om ham.
31 He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, 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 He spoke to them openly. Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
Og han talte dette frit ud. Og Peter tog ham til Side og begyndte at sætte ham i Rette.
33 But he, turning around, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan. For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of humans."
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 He called the crowd to himself with his disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wants to 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 whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save 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 does it profit a person to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?
Thi hvad gavner det et Menneske at vinde den hele Verden og at bøde med sin Sjæl?
37 Or what will a person give in exchange for his soul?
Thi hvad kunde et Menneske give til Vederlag for sin Sjæl?
38 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him, when he comes 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.”
