Mark 2
1 Some days later, when Jesus came back to Capernaum, the news spread that he was in a house there;
Og da han nogle Dage derefter atter gik ind i Kapernaum, spurgtes det, at han var hjemme.
2 and so many people collected together, that after a while there was no room for them even around the door; and he began to tell them his message.
Og der samledes mange, så at der ikke mere var Plads, end ikke foran Døren; og han talte Ordet til dem.
3 Some people came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, who was being carried by four of them.
Og de komme og bringe til ham en værkbruden, der blev båren af fire.
4 They were unable to get him near to Jesus, because of the crowd, so they removed the roof above Jesus, and, when they had made an opening, they let down the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying.
Og da de ikke kunde komme nær til ham for Folkeskaren, toge de Taget af, hvor han var; og da de havde brudt Hul, firede de Sengen ned, hvorpå den værkbrudne lå.
5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Child, your sins are forgiven.”
Og da Jesus så deres Tro, siger han til den værkbrudne: "Søn! dine Synder ere forladte."
6 But some of the teachers of the Law who were sitting there were debating in their minds,
Men nogle af de skriftkloge sade der og tænkte i deres Hjerter:
7 “Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins except God?”
"Hvorfor taler denne således? Han taler bespotteligt. Hvem kan forlade Synder uden een, nemlig Gud?"
8 Jesus, at once intuitively aware that they were debating with themselves in this way, said to them, “Why are you debating in your minds about this?
Og Jesus kendte straks i sin Ånd, at de tænkte således ved sig selv, og sagde til dem: "Hvorfor tænke I dette i eders Hjerter?
9 Which is easier? – to say to the paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven’? Or to say ‘Get up, and take up your mat, and walk’?
Hvilket er lettest, at sige til den værkbrudne: Dine Synder ere forladte, eller at sige: Stå op, og tag din Seng, og gå?
10 But so you may know that the Son of Man has power to forgive sins on earth” – here he said to the paralyzed man –
Men for at I skulle vide, at Menneskesønnen har Magt på Jorden til at forlade Synder," siger han til den værkbrudne:
11 “To you I say, Get up, take up your mat, and return to your home.”
"Jeg siger dig: Stå op, tag din Seng, og gå til dit Hus!"
12 The man got up, and immediately took up his mat, and went out before them all; at which they were amazed, and, as they praised God, they said, “We have never seen anything like this!”
Og han stod op og tog straks Sengen og gik ud for alles Øjne, så de alle bleve forfærdede og priste Gud og sagde: "Aldrig have vi set noget sådant."
13 Jesus went out again to the sea; and all the people came to him, and he taught them.
Og han gik atter ud langs Søen, og hele Skaren kom til ham, og han lærte dem.
14 As he went along, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting in the tax office, and said to him, “Follow me.” Levi got up and followed him.
Og da han gik forbi, så han Levi, Alfæus's Søn sidde ved Toldboden, og han siger til ham: "Følg mig!" Og han stod op og fulgte ham.
15 Later on he was in his house having dinner, and a number of tax collectors and outcasts took their places at the table with Jesus and his disciples; for many of them were following him.
Og det skete, at han sad til Bords i hans Hus, og mange Toldere og Syndere sade til Bords med Jesus, og hans Disciple; thi de vare mange. Og der fulgte også
16 When the teachers of the Law belonging to the party of the Pharisees saw that he was eating in the company of such people, they said to his disciples, “Why does he eat with the tax collectors and outcasts?”
nogle skriftkloge af Farisæerne med ham, og da de så, at han spiste med Toldere og Syndere, sagde de til hans Disciple: "Han spiser og drikker med Toldere og Syndere!"
17 Hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not those who are healthy who need a doctor, but those who are ill. I did not come to call the religious, but the outcast.”
Og da Jesus hørte det, siger han til dem: "De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge. Jeg er ikke kommen for at kalde retfærdige, men Syndere."
18 Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were fasting, and people came and asked Jesus, “Why is it that John’s disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, while yours do not?”
Og Johannes's Disciple og Farisæerne fastede, og de komme og sige til ham: "Hvorfor faste Johannes's Disciple og Farisæernes Disciple, men dine Disciple faste ikke?"
19 Jesus answered, “Can the groom’s friends fast, while the groom is with them? As long as they have the groom with them, they cannot fast.
Og Jesus sagde til dem: "Kunne Brudesvendene faste, medens Brudgommen er hos dem? Så længe de have Brudgommen hos sig kunne de ikke faste.
20 But the days will come, when the groom will be taken away from them, and they will fast then – when that day comes.”
Men der skal komme Dage, da Brudgommen bliver tagen fra dem, da skulle de faste på den Dag.
21 “No one ever sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; if they do, the patch tears away from it – the new from the old – and a worse tear is made.
Ingen syr en Lap af uvalket Klæde på et gammelt Klædebon; ellers river den nye Lap på det gamle Klædebon dette itu, og der bliver et værre Hul.
22 And no one ever puts new wine into old wine-skins; if they do, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the skins are lost. But new wine is put into fresh skins.”
Og ingen kommer ung Vin på gamle Læderflasker; ellers sprænger Vinen Læderflaskerne, og Vinen ødelægges såvel som Læderflaskerne; men kom ung Vin på nye Læderflasker!"
23 One Sabbath, as Jesus was walking through the cornfields, his disciples began to pick the ears of wheat as they went along.
Og det skete, at han vandrede på Sabbaten igennem en Sædemark, og hans Disciple begyndte, imedens de gik, at plukke Aks.
24 “Look!” the Pharisees said to him, “why are they doing what is not allowed on the Sabbath?”
Og Farisæerne sagde til ham: "Se, hvorfor gøre de på Sabbaten, hvad der ikke er tilladt?"
25 “Have you never read,” answered Jesus, “what David did when he was in need and hungry, he and his companions –
Og han siger til dem "Have I aldrig læst, hvad David gjorde, da han kom i Nød og blev hungrig, han selv og de, som vare med ham?
26 how he went into the house of God, in the time of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the consecrated bread, which only the priests are allowed to eat, and gave some to his comrades as well?”
Hvorledes han gik ind i Guds Hus, da Abiathar var Ypperstepræst, og spiste Skuebrødene, som det ikke er nogen tilladt at spise uden Præsterne, og gav også dem, som vare med ham?"
27 Then Jesus added, “The Sabbath was made for people, and not people for the Sabbath;
Og han sagde til dem: "Sabbaten blev til for Menneskets Skyld og ikke Mennesket for Sabbatens Skyld.
28 so the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.”
Derfor er Menneskesønnen Herre også over Sabbaten."
