Matthew 10
1 And when he had called to [him] his twelve disciples, he gave them power [against] unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness, and all manner of disease.
Og han kaldte sine tolv Disciple til sig og gav dem Magt over urene Aander, til at uddrive dem og at helbrede enhver Sygdom og enhver Skrøbelighed.
2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James [the son] of Zebedee, and John his brother;
Og disse ere de tolv Apostles Navne: Først Simon, som kaldes Peter, og Andreas, hans Broder, og Jakob, Zebedæus's Søn, og Johannes, hans Broder,
3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James [the son] of Alpheus, and Lebbeus, whose surname was Thaddeus;
Filip og Bartholomæus, Thomas og Tolderen Matthæus, Jakob, Alfæus's Søn, og Lebbæus med Tilnavn Thaddæus,
4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
Simon Kananæeren og Judas Iskariot, han, som forraadte ham.
5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and enter ye not into [any] city of the Samaritans.
Disse tolv udsendte Jesus, bød dem og sagde: „Gaar ikke hen paa Hedningers Vej, og gaar ikke ind i Samaritaners By!
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Men gaar hellere hen til de fortabte Faar af Israels Hus!
7 And as ye go, proclaim, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Men paa eders Vandring skulle I prædike og sige: Himmeriges Rige er kommet nær.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons: freely ye have received, freely give.
Helbreder syge, opvækker døde, renser spedalske, uddriver onde Aander! I have modtaget det for intet, giver det for intet!
9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses;
Skaffer eder ikke Guld, ej heller Sølv, ej heller Kobber i eders Bælter;
10 Nor bag for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor a staff: for the workman is worthy of his food.
ej Taske til at rejse med, ej heller to Kjortler, ej heller Sko, ej heller Stav; thi Arbejderen er sin Føde værd.
11 And into whatever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there abide till ye go thence.
Men hvor I komme ind i en By eller Landsby, der skulle I spørge, hvem i den der er det værd, og der skulle I blive, indtil I drage bort.
12 And when ye come into a house, salute it.
Men naar I gaa ind i Huset, da hilser det;
13 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
og dersom Huset er det værd, da komme eders Fred over det; men dersom det ikke er det værd, da vende eders Fred tilbage til eder!
14 And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart from that house, or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
Og dersom nogen ikke modtager eder og ej hører eders Ord, da gaar ud af det Hus eller den By og ryster Støvet af eders Fødder!
15 Verily, I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah, in the day of judgment, than for that city.
Sandelig, siger jeg eder, det skal gaa Sodomas og Gomorras Land taaleligere paa Dommens Dag end den By.
16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
Se, jeg sender eder som Faar midt iblandt Ulve; vorder derfor snilde som Slanger og enfoldige som Duer!
17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues.
Vogter eder for Menneskene; thi de skulle overgive eder til Raadsforsamlinger og hudstryge eder i deres Synagoger.
18 And ye will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
Og I skulle føres for Landshøvdinger og Konger for min Skyld, dem og Hedningerne til et Vidnesbyrd.
19 But when they deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye shall speak, for it shall be given to you in that same hour what ye shall speak.
Men naar de overgive eder, da bekymrer eder ikke for, hvorledes eller hvad I skulle tale; thi det skal gives eder i den samme Time, hvad I skulle tale.
20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.
Thi I ere ikke de, som tale; men det er eders Faders Aand, som taler i eder.
21 And the brother will deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children will rise up against [their] parents, and cause them to be put to death.
Men Broder skal overgive Broder til Døden, og Fader sit Barn, og Børn skulle sætte sig op imod Forældre og slaa dem ihjel.
22 And ye will be hated by all [men] for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
Og I skulle hades af alle for mit Navns Skyld; men den, som holder ud indtil Enden, han skal blive frelst.
23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say to you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel till the Son of man shall have come.
Men naar de forfølge eder i een By, da flyr til en anden; thi sandelig, siger jeg eder, I skulle ikke komme til Ende med Israels Byer, førend Menneskesønnen kommer.
24 The disciple is not above [his] teacher, nor the servant above his lord.
En Discipel er ikke over sin Mester, ej heller en Tjener over sin Herre.
25 It is enough for the disciple that he should be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord: if they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more [will they call] them of his household?
Det er Discipelen nok, at han bliver som sin Mester, og Tjeneren som sin Herre. Have de kaldet Husbonden Beelzebul, hvor meget mere da hans Husfolk?
26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
Frygter altsaa ikke for dem; thi intet er skjult, som jo skal aabenbares, og intet er lønligt, som jo skal blive kendt.
27 What I tell you in darkness, [that] speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, [that] publish ye upon the house-tops.
Taler i Lyset, hvad jeg siger eder i Mørket; og prædiker paa Tagene, hvad der siges eder i Øret!
28 And fear not them who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. (Geenna g1067)
Og frygter ikke for dem, som slaa Legemet ihjel, men ikke kunne slaa Sjælen ihjel; men frygter hellere for ham, som kan fordærve baade Sjæl og Legeme i Helvede. (Geenna g1067)
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father.
Sælges ikke to Spurve for en Penning? Og ikke een af dem falder til Jorden uden eders Faders Villie.
30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Men paa eder ere endog alle Hovedhaar talte.
31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.
Frygter derfor ikke; I ere mere værd end mange Spurve.
32 Whoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven.
Altsaa, enhver som vedkender sig mig for Menneskene, ham vil ogsaa jeg vedkende mig for min Fader, som er i Himlene.
33 But whoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in heaven.
Men den, som fornægter mig for Menneskene, ham vil ogsaa jeg fornægte for min Fader, som er i Himlene.
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Mener ikke, at jeg er kommen for at bringe Fred paa Jorden; jeg er ikke kommen for at bringe Fred, men Sværd.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
Thi jeg er kommen for at volde Splid imellem en Mand og hans Fader og imellem en Datter og hendes Moder og imellem en Svigerdatter og hendes Svigermoder,
36 And a man's foes [will be] they of his own household.
og en Mands Husfolk skulle være hans Fjender.
37 He that loveth father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me, is not worthy of me.
Den, som elsker Fader eller Moder mere end mig, er mig ikke værd; og den, som elsker Søn eller Datter mere end mig, er mig ikke værd;
38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth me, is not worthy of me.
og den, som ikke tager sit Kors og følger efter mig, er mig ikke værd.
39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake, shall find it.
Den, som bjærger sit Liv, skal miste det; og den, som mister sit Liv for min Skyld, skal bjærge det.
40 He that receiveth you, receiveth me, and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.
Den, som modtager eder, modtager mig; og den, som modtager mig, modtager ham, som udsendte mig.
41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man, shall receive a righteous man's reward.
Den, som modtager en Profet, fordi han er en Profet, skal faa en Profets Løn; og den, som modtager en retfærdig, fordi han er en retfærdig, skal faa en retfærdigs Løn.
42 And whoever shall give to drink to one of these little ones, a cup of cold [water] only, in the name of a disciple, verily, I say to you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
Og den, som giver en af disse smaa ikkun et Bæger koldt Vand at drikke, fordi han er en Discipel, sandelig, siger jeg eder, han skal ingenlunde miste sin Løn.‟
