Matthew 12
1 At that time Jesus went on the sabbath through the grain fields; and his disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the heads of grain, and to eat.
Paa den Tid vandrede Jesus paa Sabbaten igennem en Sædemark; men hans Disciple bleve hungrige og begyndte at plukke Aks og at spise.
2 But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, Behold, thy disciples do that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath.
Men da Farisæerne saa det, sagde de til ham: „Se, dine Disciple gøre, hvad det ikke er tilladt at gøre paa en Sabbat.‟
3 But he said to them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, and they that were with him;
Men han sagde til dem: „Have I ikke læst, hvad David gjorde, da han blev hungrig og de, som vare med ham?
4 How he entered into the house of God, and ate the showbread, which it was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them who were with him, but only for the priests?
hvorledes han gik ind i Guds Hus og spiste Skuebrødene, som det ikke var ham tilladt at spise, ej heller dem, som vare med ham, men alene Præsterne?
5 Or have ye not read in the law, that on the sabbath the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
Eller have I ikke læst i Loven, at paa Sabbaterne vanhellige Præsterne Sabbaten i Helligdommen og ere dog uden Skyld?
6 But I say to you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
Men jeg siger eder, at her er det, som er større end Helligdommen.
7 But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
Men dersom I havde vidst, hvad det Ord betyder: Jeg har Lyst til Barmhjertighed og ikke til Offer, da havde I ikke fordømt dem, som ere uden Skyld.
8 For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath.
Thi Menneskesønnen er Herre over Sabbaten.‟
9 And when he had departed from there, he went into their synagogue:
Og han gik videre derfra og kom ind i deres Synagoge.
10 And, behold, there was a man who had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath? that they might accuse him.
Og se, der var en Mand, som havde en vissen Haand; og de spurgte ham ad og sagde: „Er det tilladt at helbrede paa Sabbaten?‟ for at de kunde anklage ham.
11 And he said to them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it shall fall into a pit on the sabbath, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
Men han sagde til dem: „Hvilket Menneske er der iblandt eder, som har kun eet Faar, og ikke tager fat paa det og drager det op, dersom det paa Sabbaten falder i en Grav?
12 How much then is a man better than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do good on the sabbath days.
Hvor meget er nu ikke et Menneske mere end et Faar? Altsaa er det tilladt at gøre vel paa Sabbaten.‟
13 Then saith he to the man, Stretch out thy hand. And he stretched it out; and it was restored as whole, as the other.
Da siger han til Manden: „Ræk din Haand ud!‟ og han rakte den ud, og den blev igen sund som den anden.
14 Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
Men Farisæerne gik ud og lagde Raad op imod ham, hvorledes de kunde slaa ham ihjel.
15 But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from there: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
Men da Jesus mærkede det, drog han bort derfra; og mange fulgte ham, og han helbredte dem alle.
16 And charged them that they should not make him known:
Og han bød dem strengt, at de ikke maatte gøre ham kendt;
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying,
for at det skulde opfyldes, som er talt ved Profeten Esajas, som siger:
18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall show justice to the Gentiles.
„Se, min Tjener, som jeg har udvalgt, min elskede, i hvem min Sjæl har Velbehag; jeg vil give min Aand over ham, og han skal forkynde Hedningerne Ret.
19 He shall not quarrel, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
Han skal ikke kives og ikke raabe, og ingen skal høre hans Røst paa Gaderne.
20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he shall send forth justice to victory.
Han skal ikke sønderbryde det knækkede Rør og ikke udslukke den rygende Tande, indtil han faar ført Retten frem til Sejr.
21 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
Og paa hans Navn skulle Hedninger haabe.‟
22 Then was brought to him one possessed with a demon, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb both spoke and saw.
Da blev en besat, som var blind og stum, ført til ham; og han helbredte ham, saa at den stumme talte og saa.
23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
Og alle Skarerne forfærdedes og sagde: „Mon denne skulde være Davids Søn?‟
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This man doth not cast out demons, but by Beelzebub the prince of the demons.
Men da Farisæerne hørte det, sagde de: „Denne uddriver ikke de onde Aander uden ved Beelzebul, de onde Aanders Fyrste.‟
25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
Men saasom han kendte deres Tanker, sagde han til dem: „Hvert Rige, som er kommet i Splid med sig selv, lægges øde; og hver By eller Hus, som er kommet i Splid med sig selv, kan ikke bestaa.
26 And if Satan casteth out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then shall his kingdom stand?
Og hvis Satan uddriver Satan, saa er han kommen i Splid med sig selv; hvorledes skal da hans Rige bestaa?
27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.
Og dersom jeg uddriver de onde Aander ved Beelzebul, ved hvem uddrive da eders Sønner dem? Derfor skulle de være eders Dommere.
28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come to you.
Men dersom jeg uddriver de onde Aander ved Guds Aand, da er jo Guds Rige kommet til eder.
29 Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and seize his goods, except he shall first bind the strong man? and then he will plunder his house.
Eller hvorledes kan nogen gaa ind i den stærkes Hus og røve hans Ejendele, uden han først binder den stærke? Da kan han plyndre hans Hus.
30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
Den, som ikke er med mig, er imod mig; og den, som ikke samler med mig, adspreder.
31 Therefore I say to you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.
Derfor siger jeg eder: Al Synd og Bespottelse skal forlades Menneskene, men Bespottelsen imod Aanden skal ikke forlades.
32 And whoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whoever speaketh against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. (aiōn g165)
Og den, som taler et Ord imod Menneskesønnen, ham skal det forlades; men den, som taler imod den Helligaand, ham skal det ikke forlades, hverken i denne Verden eller i den kommende. (aiōn g165)
33 Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit.
Lader enten Træet være godt og dets Frugt god; eller lader Træet være raaddent, og dets Frugt raadden; thi Træet kendes paa Frugten.
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
I Øgleunger! hvorledes kunne I tale godt, naar I ere onde? Thi af Hjertets Overflødighed taler Munden.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
Et godt Menneske fremtager gode Ting af sit gode Forraad; og et ondt Menneske fremtager onde Ting af sit onde Forraad.
36 But I say to you, That for every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account for it in the day of judgment.
Men jeg siger eder, at Menneskene skulle gøre Regnskab paa Dommens Dag for hvert utilbørligt Ord, som de tale.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
Thi af dine Ord skal du retfærdiggøres, og af dine Ord skal du fordømmes.‟
38 Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
Da svarede nogle af de skriftkloge og Farisæerne ham og sagde: „Mester! vi ønske at se et Tegn af dig.‟
39 But he answered and said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh for a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonah:
Men han svarede og sagde til dem: „En ond og utro Slægt forlanger Tegn, men der skal intet Tegn gives den uden Profeten Jonas's Tegn.
40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Thi ligesom Jonas var tre Dage og tre Nætter i Havdyrets Bug, saaledes skal Menneskesønnen være tre Dage og tre Nætter i Jordens Skød.
41 The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and, behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
Mænd fra Ninive skulle opstaa ved Dommen sammen med denne Slægt og fordømme den; thi de omvendte sig ved Jonas's Prædiken; og se, her er mere end Jonas.
42 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
Sydens Dronning skal oprejses ved Dommen sammen med denne Slægt og fordømme den; thi hun kom fra Jordens Grænser for at høre Salomons Visdom; og se, her er mere end Salomon.
43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and he findeth none.
Men naar den urene Aand er faren ud af Mennesket, vandrer den igennem vandløse Steder, søger Hvile og finder den ikke.
44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from which I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.
Da siger den: Jeg vil vende om til mit Hus, som jeg gik ud af; og naar den kommer, finder den det ledigt, fejet og prydet.
45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also to this wicked generation.
Saa gaar den hen og tager syv andre Aander med sig, som ere værre end den selv, og naar de ere komne derind, bo de der; og det sidste bliver værre med dette Menneske end det første. Saaledes skal det ogsaa gaa denne onde Slægt.‟
46 While he was yet speaking to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood outside, desiring to speak with him.
Medens han endnu talte til Skarerne, se, da stode hans Moder og hans Brødre udenfor og begærede at tale med ham.
47 Then one said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand outside, desiring to speak with thee.
Da sagde en til ham: „Se, din Moder og dine Brødre staa udenfor og begære at tale med dig.‟
48 But he answered and said to him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
Men han svarede og sagde til den, som sagde ham det: „Hvem er min Moder? og hvem ere mine Brødre?‟
49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
Og han rakte sin Haand ud over sine Disciple og sagde: „Se, her er min Moder og mine Brødre!
50 For whoever shall do the will of my Father who is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Thi enhver, der gør min Faders Villie, som er i Himlene, han er min Broder og Søster og Moder.‟
