John 4
1 When therefore Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
Da Herren nu erfarede, at Farisæerne havde hørt, at Jesus vandt flere Disciple og døbte flere end Johannes
2 (though Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples, )
(skønt Jesus ikke døbte selv, men hans Disciple):
3 he left Judaea, and went again to Galilee.
da forlod han Judæa og drog atter bort til Galilæa.
4 And he must necessarily pass through Samaria.
Men han måtte rejse igennem Samaria.
5 He cometh therefore to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the piece of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
Han kommer da til en By i Samaria, som kaldes Sykar, nær ved det Stykke Land, som Jakob gav sin Søn Josef.
6 And Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with the journey, was sitting thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
Og der var Jakobs Brønd. Jesus satte sig da, træt af Rejsen, ned ved Brønden; det var ved den sjette Time.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith to her, Give me to drink.
En samaritansk Kvinde kommer for at drage Vand op. Jesus siger til hende: "Giv mig noget at drikke!"
8 For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
Hans Disciple vare nemlig gåede bort til Byen for at købe Mad.
9 The Samaritan woman saith to him, How is it that thou, who art a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.
Da siger den samaritanske Kvinde til ham: "Hvorledes kan dog du, som er en Jøde, bede mig, som er en samaritansk Kvinde, om noget at drikke?" Thi Jøder holde ikke Samkvem med Samaritanere.
10 Jesus answered and said to her, If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
Jesus svarede og sagde til hende: "Dersom du kendte Guds Gave, og hvem det er, som siger til dig: Giv mig noget at drikke, da bad du ham, og han gav dig levende Vand."
11 The woman saith to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Whence hast thou the living water?
Kvinden siger til ham: "Herre! du har jo intet at drage op med, og Brønden er dyb; hvorfra har du da det levende Vand?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
Mon du er større end vor Fader Jakob, som har givet os Brønden, og han har selv drukket deraf og hans Børn og hans Kvæg?"
13 Jesus answered and said to her, Every one that drinketh of this water, will thirst again;
Jesus svarede og sagde til hende: "Hver den, som drikker af dette Vand, skal tørste igen.
15 The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.
Kvinden siger til ham: "Herre! giv mig dette Vand, for at jeg ikke skal tørste og ikke komme hid for at drage op."
16 He saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
Jesus siger til hende: "Gå bort, kald på din Mand, og kom hid!"
17 The woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidst well, that thou hast no husband.
Kvinden svarede og sagde: "Jeg har ingen Mand." Jesus siger til hende: "Med Rette sagde du: Jeg har ingen Mand.
18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband; in this thou hast spoken truly.
Thi du har haft fem Mænd; og han, som du nu har, er ikke din Mand. Det har du sagt sandt."
19 The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
Kvinden siger til ham: "Herre! jeg ser, at du er en Profet.
20 Our fathers worshipped on this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
Vore Fædre have tilbedt på dette Bjerg, og I sige, at i Jerusalem er Stedet, hvor man bør tilbede."
21 Jesus saith to her, Believe me, woman, the hour is coming, when ye shall neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.
Jesus siger til hende: "Tro mig, Kvinde, at den Time kommer, da det hverken skal være på dette Bjerg eller i Jerusalem, at I tilbede Faderen.
22 Ye worship that which ye know not; we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
I tilbede det, I ikke kende; vi tilbede det, vi kende; thi Frelsen kommer fra Jøderne.
23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for such worshippers the Father seeketh.
Men den Time kommer, ja, den er nu, da de sande Tilbedere skulle tilbede Faderen i Ånd og Sandhed; thi det er sådanne Tilbedere, Faderen vil have.
24 God is a spirit; and they who worship must worship in spirit and in truth.
Gud er Ånd, og de, som tilbede ham, bør tilbede i Ånd og Sandhed."
25 The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah cometh (who is called Christ); when he hath come, he will tell us all things.
Kvinden siger til ham: "Jeg ved, at Messias kommer (hvilket betyder Kristus); når han kommer, skal han kundgøre os alle Ting."
26 Jesus saith to her, I who speak to thee am he.
Jesus siger til hende: "Det er mig, jeg, som taler med dig."
27 And upon this his disciples came, and marveled that he was talking with a woman. Yet no one said, What dost thou seek? or, Why dost thou talk with her?
Og i det samme kom hans Disciple, og de undrede sig over, at han talte med en Kvinde; dog sagde ingen: "Hvad søger du?" eller: "Hvorfor taler du med hende?"
28 The woman then left her water-pot, and went away into the city, and saith to the men,
Da lod Kvinden sin Vandkrukke stå og gik bort til Byen og siger til Menneskene der:
29 Come, see a man who told me all things which I have done. Is this the Christ?
"Kommer og ser en Mand, som har sagt mig alt det, jeg har gjort; mon han skulde være Kristus?"
30 They went out of the city, and came to him.
De gik ud af Byen og kom gående til ham.
31 In the mean while the disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
Imidlertid bade Disciplene ham og sagde: "Rabbi, spis!"
32 But he said to them, I have food to eat that ye know not of.
Men han sagde til dem, jeg har Mad at spise, som I ikke kende."
33 The disciples therefore said to one another, Hath any one brought him anything to eat?
Da sagde Disciplene til hverandre: "Mon nogen har bragt ham noget at spise?"
34 Jesus saith to them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
Jesus siger til dem: "Min Mad er, at jeg gør hans Villie, som udsendte mig, og fuldbyrder hans Gerning.
35 Do ye not say, There are yet four months, and the harvest cometh? Lo! I say to you, lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest.
Sige I ikke: Der er endnu fire Måneder, så kommer Høsten? Se, jeg siger eder, opløfter eders Øjne og ser Markene; de ere allerede hvide til Høsten.
36 Already is the reaper receiving wages, and gathering fruit unto everlasting life; that both the sower and the reaper may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
Den, som høster, får Løn og samler Frugt til et evigt Liv, så at de kunne glæde sig tilsammen, både den, som sår, og den, som høster. (aiōnios g166)
37 And herein is fulfilled the true saying, One soweth, and another reapeth.
Thi her er det Ord sandt: En sår, og en anden høster.
38 I have sent you to reap that whereon ye have not labored. Others have labored, and ye have entered into their labor.
Jeg har udsendt eder at høste det, som I ikke have arbejdet på; andre have arbejdet, og I ere gåede ind i deres Arbejde."
39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in him because of the words of the woman, who testified, He told me all things which I have done.
Men mange af Samaritanerne fra den By troede på ham på Grund af Kvindens Ord, da hun vidnede: "Han har sagt mig alt det, jeg har gjort."
40 When therefore the Samaritans came to him, they besought him to remain with them; and he remained there two days.
Da nu Samaritanerne kom til ham, bade de ham om at blive hos dem; og han blev der to Dage.
41 And many more believed on account of his word;
Og mange flere troede for hans Ords Skyld.
42 and said to the woman, No longer do we believe on account of what thou hast told us; for we have ourselves heard him, and know that this is in truth the Saviour of the world.
Og til Kvinden sagde de: "Vi tro nu ikke længer for din Tales Skyld; thi vi have selv hørt, og vi vide, at denne er sandelig Verdens Frelser."
43 And after the two days he went from that place into Galilee.
Men efter de to Dage gik han derfra til Galilæa.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
Thi Jesus vidnede selv, at en Profet ikke bliver æret i sit eget Fædreland.
45 When therefore he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all that he did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also went to the feast.
Da han nu kom til Galilæa, toge Galilæerne imod ham, fordi de havde set alt det, som han gjorde i Jerusalem på Højtiden; thi også de vare komne til Højtiden.
46 So he came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick, at Capernaum.
Han kom da atter til Kana i Galilæa, hvor han havde gjort Vandet til Vin. Og der var en kongelig Embedsmand, hvis Søn lå syg i Kapernaum.
47 He, having heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, went to him, and asked him to go down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
Da denne hørte, at Jesus var kommen fra Judæa til Galilæa, gik han til ham og bad om, at han vilde komme ned og helbrede hans Søn; thi han var Døden nær.
48 Then Jesus said to him, Unless ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
Da sagde Jesus til ham: "Dersom I ikke se Tegn og Undergerninger, ville I ikke tro."
49 The nobleman saith to him, Sir, come down before my child die.
Embedsmanden siger til ham: "Herre! kom, før mit Barn dør."
50 Jesus saith to him, Go; thy son liveth. The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and went away.
Jesus siger til ham: "Gå bort, din Søn lever." Og Manden troede det Ord, som Jesus sagde til ham, og gik bort.
51 And as he was now going down, the servants met him, and brought word that his child was living.
Men allerede medens han var på Hjemvejen, mødte hans Tjenere ham og meldte, at hans Barn levede.
52 Then he inquired of them the hour when he began to mend. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
Da udspurgte han dem om den Time, i hvilken det var blevet bedre med ham; og de sagde til ham: "I Går ved den syvende time forlod Feberen ham."
53 So the father knew that it was in the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son is living. And he himself believed, and his whole house.
Da skønnede Faderen, at det var sket i den Time, da Jesus sagde til ham: "Din Søn lever;" og han troede selv og hele hans Hus.
54 This again, a second sign, Jesus wrought, when he had come out of Judaea into Galilee.
Dette var det andet Tegn, som Jesus gjorde, da han var kommen fra Judæa til Galilæa.
