John 14
1 [Jesus continued by saying to us], “Stop being anxious/worried. Keep on trusting in God (OR, You are trusting in God); also keep trusting in me.
«Lat ikkje hjarta dykkar uroast! Tru på Gud, og tru på meg!
2 Where my Father is [in heaven] there is plenty of room! If that were not true, I would have told you. I am about to go [there] to prepare a place for you.
I huset åt Far min er det mange rom; var det’kje so, vilde eg vel då sagt dykk det; for eg gjeng burt og vil stella til ein verestad åt dykk.
3 And because I will go [there] and prepare a place for you, I will return and take you there to be with me. I will do that so that you may also be where I am.
Og når eg hev gjenge burt og stelt til ein verestad åt dykk, kjem eg att og tek dykk til meg, so de og skal vera der eg er.
4 You know the road to the place where I am going.”
Og vegen dit eg gjeng, den veit de.»
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. [So] how can we know the road?”
Tomas segjer til honom: «Herre, me veit’kje kvar du gjeng av; korleis kann me då vita vegen?»
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the road [MET] [to where my Father is]. I am the [one who reveals] [MET] the truth [about God] and the [one who gives eternal] life [to people]. I am the only one who can [enable people] to come to [my] Father. There is no other way.
Jesus svarar: «Eg er vegen og sanningi og livet. Ingen kjem til Faderen utan gjenom meg;
7 If you [really] knew who I was, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and [it is as though] you have seen him.”
hadde de kjent meg, so hadde de kjent far min og, og frå denne stund kjenner de honom, og hev set honom.»
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us your Father and that will be enough for us!”
Filip segjer til honom: «Herre, lat oss få sjå Faderen, so hev me nok!»
9 Jesus said to him, “Philip, I have been with you for a long time. So (surely you should know who I [really am]!/why have you not come to know who I [really am]?) [RHQ] Those who have seen me, [it is as though] they have seen [my] Father. So (why do you say ‘Show us [your] Father’?/you should not say ‘Show us [your] Father’!) [RHQ]
Jesus svarar: «No hev eg vore so lang ei tid i hop med dykk, og du kjenner meg ikkje, Filip? Den som hev set meg, hev set Faderen; korleis kann du då segja: «Lat oss få sjå Faderen?»
10 Do you not [RHQ] believe that I have a close relationship with [my] Father, and that [my] Father has a close relationship with me? The messages that I tell you do not come from me. They come from my Father, who has a close relationship with me. He is enabling me to [teach these things, and] to perform the miracles that he [wants me to perform].
Trur du ikkje at eg er i Faderen, og Faderen er i meg? Dei ordi eg talar til dykk, talar eg ikkje av meg sjølv; men Faderen, som bur i meg, han er det som gjer sine verk.
11 Believe that I have a close relationship with [my] Father and that [my] Father has a close relationship with me. If you do not believe that just because of what I say, believe it because of the miracles themselves [that I have done].
Tru meg, når eg segjer at eg er i Faderen, og Faderen i meg! Um ikkje det, so tru meg for sjølve verki skuld!
12 Listen to this carefully: [You] who trust in me will do the [kinds of] miracles [that I have done]. [Because of what I will do for you] (OR, [Because I will send God’s Spirit to you]) after I go to my Father, you will be able to do [miracles] that will be greater than [the ones I have done].
Det segjer eg dykk for visst og sant: Den som trur på meg, han skal gjera dei same verki som eg gjer, og han skal gjera større verk enn dei. For eg gjeng til Faderen,
13 And whatever you, using my authority, ask me to do, I will do it, in order that I can show [you] how great [my] Father is.
og alt de bed um i mitt namn, det vil eg gjera, so Faderen kann verta herleggjord i Sonen.
14 Anything that you ask [my Father to do, anything that you ask] with my [authority] [MTY], I will do.”
Bed de meg um noko i mitt namn, so skal eg gjera det.
15 “If you love me, you will do what I have commanded you.
Elskar de meg, so held de bodi mine;
16 Then I myself will request [my] Father, and he will send you someone else who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. (aiōn g165)
då skal eg beda Faderen, so gjev han dykk ein annan målsmann, som skal vera hjå dykk i all æva, (aiōn g165)
17 [I am talking about] the Spirit, who [will teach you God’s] truth. He will be with you forever. Those who are opposed to God [MTY] cannot receive him, because they cannot understand what he [does], and they cannot know who he is. But you know who he is, because he is with you and he will be inside you.
Sannings-Anden, som verdi ikkje kann få, for ho ser honom ikkje og kjenner honom ikkje. De kjenner honom; for han bur hjå dykk og skal vera inni dykk.
18 [When I leave you], I will not let you be alone/helpless [MET]. [When I send the Spirit, it will be like] I am coming back to you (OR, [When I rise from the dead], I will come back to you.)
Eg vil’kje lata dykk vera att åleine som foreldrelause born; eg kjem til dykk.
19 Soon those who do not belong to God [MTY] will not see me any more. But [when the Spirit comes to you, it will be as though] you will be seeing me again (OR, But [after I become alive again], you will see me again.) Because I will be alive again, you also will have [eternal] life.
Um ei liti stund ser verdi meg ikkje lenger; men de ser meg; for eg liver, og de skal liva.
20 At that time you will know that I have a close relationship with my Father, and you will have a close relationship with me, and I will have a close relationship with you.
Den dagen skal de skyna at eg er i far min, og de er i meg, og eg i dykk.
21 Those who have accepted my commands and obey them are the people who love me. My Father will love those who love me. I also will love them, and I will fully reveal to them [what I am like].”
Den som hev bodi mine og held deim, han er den som elskar meg, og den som elskar meg, honom skal far min elska, og eg skal elska honom og openberra meg for honom.»
22 Then Judas spoke to him. He was not Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), [but instead a disciple whose other name was Thaddeus]. He said, “Lord, what has happened so that you can fully reveal to us what you are like, and not reveal that to those who do not belong to God [MTY]?”
Judas - ikkje Iskariot - segjer til honom: «Herre, kva hev hendt, sidan du vil syna deg for oss og ikkje for verdi?»
23 Jesus replied to him, “Those who love me will obey what I have told them. My Father will [also] love them. It is those people whom my Father and I will [be able to] come to and (live with/have a personal relationship with).
Jesus svara so: «Um nokon elskar meg, held han seg etter ordet mitt, og far min skal elska honom; og me skal koma til honom og taka vår bustad hjå honom.
24 But those who do not love me will not obey what I have told them. [So I cannot reveal to them what I am really like]. These words that I am telling you have not come just from me. They came from [my] Father, the one who sent me.
Den som ikkje elskar meg, held seg ikkje etter ordi mine; og ordet de høyrer, er ikkje mitt, men far min’s, som sende meg.
25 I have told you all these things while I am still with you.
Dette hev eg tala til dykk medan eg endå er hjå dykk.
26 But [my] Father will send the Holy Spirit. He is the one who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. He will come with my authority [MTY]. He will teach you all of [God’s truth that you need to know]. He will also cause you to remember all the things that I have told you.
Men målsmannen, den Heilage Ande, som Faderen skal senda i mitt namn, han skal læra dykk alt og minna dykk på alt det eg hev sagt dykk.
27 As I leave you, I am causing you to have [inner] peace. This [inner] peace comes from me. I am not causing you to have something that those who do not belong to God [MTY] can give you. [So] stop being anxious/worried, and do not be afraid.
Fred leiver eg åt dykk, min fred gjev eg dykk; eg gjev dykk ikkje fred på den måten som verdi gjer det. Lat ikkje hjarta dykkar uroast og ikkje ræddast!
28 You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, but [later] I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going back to [my] Father, because [my] Father is greater than I am, [and there he will honor me and will send the Spirit to you].
De høyrde eg sagde til dykk: «Eg gjeng burt og kjem til dykk att; » elska de meg, so gledde de dykk for di eg gjeng til Faderen, for Faderen er større enn eg.
29 I have told you [these things now] before they happen, so that when they happen you will believe [that what I said is true].
Og no hev eg sagt dykk det fyrr det hev hendt, so de skal tru når det hender.
30 I will not [be able to] talk to you much longer, because what happens to me will be as though [Satan], the ruler of this world, is coming [to attack me]. But he has no [control over what happens to] me.
Heretter kjem eg ikkje til å tala mykje med dykk; for no kjem hovdingen yver verdi. I meg eig han ingen ting,
31 Instead, the people who do not belong to God [MTY] must learn [from what happens to me] that I love [my] Father, and I am doing the things that he has commanded me to do. Now, let’s get up and leave here.”
men eg vil verdi skal sjå at eg elskar Faderen, og gjer so som Faderen hev sagt til meg! Reis dykk, og lat oss ganga ifrå her!»
