John 2
1 Two days later there was a wedding [celebration] in Cana [town], in Galilee [district]. Jesus’ mother was there.
Og paa den tredje Dag var der et Bryllup i Kana i Galilæa; og Jesu Moder var der.
2 Jesus and [we] his disciples [were also there, because] we had been invited {someone had invited us} also.
Men ogsaa Jesus og hans Disciple bleve budne til Brylluppet.
3 When the guests had drunk all the wine [that was there], Jesus’ mother said to him, “The wine is all gone; [can you do something about that]?”
Og da Vinen slap op, siger Jesu Moder til ham: „De have ikke Vin.”
4 Jesus said to her, “Ma’am/Woman, (do not [tell] me [what to do]!/why do you [tell] me [what to do]?) [RHQ] It is not yet time [MTY] [to show] that I am [the Messiah by working miracles].”
Jesus siger til hende: „Kvinde! hvad vil du mig? min Time er endnu ikke kommen.”
5 Then Jesus’ mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you!”
Hans Moder siger til Tjenerne: „Hvad som han siger eder, det skulle I gøre.”
6 There were six [empty] stone jars there. The Jews [habitually put water in them] to use for washing things [to make them acceptable to God]. Each jar held (20 to 30 gallons/80 to 120 liters).
Men der var der efter Jødernes Renselsesskik fremsat seks Vandkar af Sten, som rummede hvert to eller tre Spande.
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water!” So they filled the jars to the brim.
Jesus siger til dem: „Fylder Vandkarrene med Vand;” og de fyldte dem indtil det øverste.
8 Then he told them, “Now, ladle out some [of it] and take it (to the head waiter/to the master of ceremonies).” So the servants did that.
Og han siger til dem: „Øser nu og bærer til Køgemesteren;” og de bare det til ham.
9 (The head waiter/The master of ceremonies) tasted the water, which had now become wine. He did not know where the wine had come from, but the servants who had ladled out the wine knew. [The wine was delicious]! So he called the bridegroom over,
Men da Køgemesteren smagte Vandet, som var blevet Vin, og ikke vidste, hvorfra det kom (men Tjenerne, som havde øst Vandet, vidste det), kalder Køgemesteren paa Brudgommen og siger til ham:
10 and said to him, “Everyone [else] serves the best wine first. Then when the guests have drunk so much [that they cannot tell the difference], [they serve] the cheap wine. But you [have not done what others do]. You have kept the best wine until now!”
„Hvert Menneske sætter først den gode Vin frem, og naar de ere blevne drukne, da den ringere; du har gemt den gode Vin indtil nu.”
11 That was the first miracle that Jesus did. He did it in Cana [town], in Galilee [district]. By doing it he showed how awesome he is, and as a result, [we] his disciples believed that he [truly was the Messiah].
Denne Begyndelse paa sine Tegn gjorde Jesus i Kana i Galilæa, og han aabenbarede sin Herlighed; og hans Disciple troede paa ham.
12 Jesus then went down to Capernaum [city] with his mother and [younger] brothers and [us] his disciples. We stayed there several days.
Derefter drog han ned til Kapernaum, han og hans Moder og hans Brødre og hans Disciple, og de bleve der ikke mange Dage.
13 Later, when it was almost time for the Jewish Passover [celebration], Jesus [and we his disciples] went up to Jerusalem.
Og Jødernes Paaske var nær, og Jesus drog op til Jerusalem.
14 There, in the Temple [courtyard], he saw some men who were selling cattle, sheep, and pigeons [for sacrifices]. He also saw men who were sitting at tables, [making a big profit as they] gave people [Temple tax] coins in exchange for [their Roman] coins.
Og han fandt siddende i Helligdommen dem, som solgte Okser og Faar og Duer, og Vekselererne.
15 Then Jesus made a whip from some cords and [used it to] chase out the sheep and cattle from the Temple [courtyard]. By overturning their tables he scattered the coins of the men who were exchanging them.
Og han gjorde en Svøbe af Reb og drev dem alle ud af Helligdommen, baade Faarene og Okserne, og han spredte Vekselerernes Smaapenge og væltede Bordene.
16 He said to those who were selling doves, “Take these doves away [from here]! Stop [defiling] my Father’s Temple [by] making it a market!”
Og han sagde til dem, som solgte Duer: „Tager dette bort herfra; gører ikke min Faders Hus til en Købmandsbod!”
17 Then [we] disciples remembered that these words had been written {that [someone/David] had written [these words]} [in the Scriptures prophesying what the Messiah would say]: “Others [PRS] will strongly oppose me because I greatly desire that [people respect] your Sacred Tent.”
Hans Disciple kom i Hu, at der er skrevet: „Nidkærheden for dit Hus vil fortære mig.”
18 So [one of] the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied to him, “What miracle will you perform to show us that [you have authority from God] to do these things?”
Da svarede Jøderne og sagde til ham: „Hvad viser du os for et Tegn, efterdi du gør dette?”
19 Jesus replied to them, “If/When you destroy this temple, I will build it again within three days.”
Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: „Nedbryder dette Tempel, og i tre Dage vil jeg oprejse det.”
20 So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said, “We have been building this Temple for 46 years [and it is not finished yet]! So (there is no way you will build it within three days!/how will you build it within three days?) [RHQ]”
Da sagde Jøderne: „I seks og fyrretyve Aar er der bygget paa dette Tempel, og du vil oprejse det i tre Dage?”
21 But when Jesus said that about the temple, [he was really talking about] his own body.
Men han talte om sit Legemes Tempel.
22 [Later], after Jesus had [died and had] become alive again, [we] his disciples remembered the words he had said. As a result, we believed [what had been prophesied in] the Scriptures [about the Messiah becoming alive again], and we believed that what Jesus said [was true].
Da han saa var oprejst fra de døde, kom hans Disciple i Hu, at han havde sagt dette; og de troede Skriften og det Ord, som Jesus havde sagt.
23 While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover celebration, many people came to believe [that he was the Messiah] because they saw the miracles he was performing.
Men da han var i Jerusalem i Paasken paa Højtiden, troede mange paa hans Navn, da de saa hans Tegn, som han gjorde.
24 But he did not let them tell him what he should do [as the Messiah], because he knew within himself what they were all [thinking].
Men Jesus selv betroede sig ikke til dem, fordi han kendte alle,
25 He did not need anyone to tell him what others were thinking, because he already knew what they were [thinking and wanting].
og fordi han ikke havde nødig, at nogen skulde vidne om Mennesket; thi han vidste selv, hvad der var i Mennesket.
