Luke 7 (DA31) · Opened

1Men da han havde fuldendt alle sine Ord i Folkets Påhør, gik han ind i Kapernaum.When Jesus had concluded His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.

2Men en Høvedsmands Tjener, som denne holdt meget af, var syg og nær ved at dø.There a highly valued servant of a centurion was sick and about to die.

3men da han hørte om Jesus, sendte han nogle af Jødernes Ældste til ham og bad ham om, at han vilde komme og helbrede hans Tjener.When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.

4Men da de kom til Jesus, bade de ham indtrængende og sagde: “Han er vel værd, at du gør dette for ham;They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,

5thi han elsker vort Folk, og han har bygget Synagogen for os.”for he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.”

6Og Jesus gik med dem. Men da han allerede ikke var langt fra Huset, sendte Høvedsmanden nogle Venner og lod ham sige: “Herre! umag dig ikke; thi jeg er ikke værdig til, at du skal gå ind under mit Tag.So Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with the message: “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You come under my roof.

7Derfor agtede jeg heller ikke mig selv værdig til at komme til dig; men sig det med et Ord, så bliver min Dreng helbredt.That is why I did not consider myself worthy to come to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

8Jeg er jo selv et Menneske, som står under Øvrighed og har Stridsmænd under mig; og siger jeg til den ene: Gå! så går han; og til den anden: Kom! så kommer han; og til min Tjener: Gør dette! så gør han det.”For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes, and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”

9Men da Jesus hørte dette, forundrede han sig over ham; og han vendte sig om og sagde til Skaren, som fulgte ham: “Jeg siger eder, end ikke i Israel har jeg fundet så stor en Tro.”When Jesus heard this, He marveled at the centurion. Turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”

10Og da de, som vare udsendte, kom tilbage til Huset, fandt de den syge Tjener sund.And when the messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.

11Og det skete Dagen derefter, at han gik til en By, som hed Nain, og der gik mange af hans Disciple og en stor Skare med ham.Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples went with Him, accompanied by a large crowd.

12Men da han nærmede sig Byens Port, se, da blev en død båren ud, som var sin Moders enbårne Søn, og hun var Enke; og en stor Skare fra Byen gik med hende.As He approached the town gate, He saw a dead man being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her.

13Og da Herren så hende, ynkedes han inderligt over hende og sagde til hende: “Græd ikke!”When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said, “Do not weep.”

14Og han trådte til og rørte ved Båren; men de, som bare, stode stille, og han sagde: “du unge Mand, jeg siger dig, stå op!”Then He went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still. “Young man,” He said, “I tell you, get up!”

15Og den døde rejste sig op og begyndte at tale; og han gav ham til hans Moder.And the dead man sat up and began to speak! Then Jesus gave him back to his mother.

16Men Frygt betog alle, og de priste Gud og sagde: “Der er en stor Profet oprejst iblandt os, og Gud har besøgt sit Folk.”A sense of awe swept over all of them, and they glorified God. “A great prophet has appeared among us!” they said. “God has visited His people!”

17Og denne Tale om ham kom ud i hele Judæa og i hele det omliggende Land.And the news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and all the surrounding region.

18Og Johannes' Disciple fortalte ham om alt dette. Og Johannes kaldte to af sine Disciple til sigThen John’s disciples informed him about all these things.

19og sendte dem til Herren og lod sige: “Er du den, som kommer, eller skulle vi vente en anden?”So John called two of his disciples and sent them to ask the Lord, “Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?”

20Og da Mændene kom til ham, sagde de: “Johannes Døberen har sendt os til dig og lader sige: Er du den, som kommer, eller skulle vi vente en anden?”When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to ask, ‘Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?’”

21I den samme Time helbredte han mange for Sygdomme og Plager og onde Ånder og skænkede mange blinde Synet.At that very hour Jesus healed many people of their diseases, afflictions, and evil spirits, and He gave sight to many who were blind.

22Og han svarede og sagde til dem: “Går hen, og forkynder Johannes de Ting, som I have set og hørt: Blinde se, lamme gå, spedalske renses, døve høre, døde stå op, Evangeliet forkyndes for fattige;So He replied, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.

23og salig er den, som ikke forarges på mig.”Blessed is the one who does not fall away on account of Me.”

24Men da Johannes's Sendebud vare gåede bort, begyndte han at sige til Skarerne om Johannes: “Hvad gik I ud i Ørkenen at skue? Et Rør, som bevæges hid og did af Vinden?After John’s messengers had left, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?

25Eller hvad gik I ud at se? Et Menneske, iført bløde Klæder? Se, de, som leve i prægtige Klæder og i Vellevned, ere i Kongsgårdene.Otherwise, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? Look, those who wear elegant clothing and live in luxury are found in palaces.

26Eller hvad gik I ud at se? En Profet? Ja, siger jeg eder, endog mere end en Profet!What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.

27Han er den, om hvem der er skrevet: Se, jeg sender min Engel for dit Ansigt, han skal berede din Vej foran dig.This is the one about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.’

28Jeg siger eder: Iblandt dem, som ere fødte af Kvinder, er ingen større Profet end Johannes; men den mindste i Guds Rige er større end han.I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John, yet even the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”

29Og hele Folket, som hørte ham, endog Tolderne, gav Gud Ret, idet de bleve døbte med Johannes's Dåb.All the people who heard this, even the tax collectors, acknowledged God’s justice. For they had received the baptism of John.

30Men Farisæerne og de lovkyndige have foragtet Guds Råd med dem selv, idet de ikke bleve døbte af ham.But the Pharisees and experts in the law rejected God’s purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.

31Ved hvem skal jeg da ligne denne Slægts Mennesker? og hvem ligne de?“To what, then, can I compare the men of this generation? What are they like?

32De ligne Børn, som sidde på Torvet og råbe til hverandre og sige: Vi blæste på Fløjte for eder, og I dansede ikke, vi sang Klagesange for eder, og I græd ikke.They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another: ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not weep.’

33Thi Johannes Døberen kom, som hverken spiste Brød eller drak Vin, og I sige: Han er besat.For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’

34Menneskesønnen kom, som spiser og drikker, og I sige: Se, en Frådser og en Vindranker, Tolderes og Synderes Ven!The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’

35Dog Visdommen er retfærdiggjort ved alle sine Børn!”But wisdom is vindicated by all her children.”

36Men en af Farisæerne bad ham om, at han vilde spise med ham; og han gik ind i Farisæerens Hus og satte sig til Bords.Then one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to eat with him, and He entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table.

37Og se, der var en Kvinde, som var en Synderinde i Byen; da hun fik at vide, at han sad* til Bords i Farisæerens Hus, kom hun med en Alabastkrukke med Salve; { }When a sinful woman from that town learned that Jesus was dining there, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume.

38og hun stillede sig bag ved ham, ved hans Fødder og græd og begyndte at væde hans Fødder med sine Tårer og aftørrede dem med sit Hovedhår og kyssede hans Fødder og salvede dem med Salven.As she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and wipe them with her hair. Then she kissed His feet and anointed them with the perfume.

39Men da Farisæeren, som havde indbudt ham, så det, sagde han ved sig selv: “Dersom denne var en Profet, vidste han, hvem og hvordan en Kvinde denne er, som rører ved ham, at hun er en Synderinde.”When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, He would know who this is and what kind of woman is touching Him—for she is a sinner!”

40Og Jesus tog til Orde og sagde til ham: “Simon! jeg har noget at sige dig.” Men han siger: “Mester, sig frem!”But Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he said.

41“En Mand, som udlånte Penge, havde to Skyldnere; den ene var fem Hundrede Denarer* skyldig. men den anden halvtredsindstyve. { }“Two men were debtors to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

42Da de ikke havde noget at betale med, eftergav han dem det begge. Hvem af dem vil nu elske ham mest?”When they were unable to repay him, he forgave both of them. Which one, then, will love him more?”

43Simon svarede og sagde: “Jeg holder for, den, hvem han eftergav mest?” Men han sagde til ham: “Du dømte ret.”“I suppose the one who was forgiven more,” Simon replied. “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.

44Og han vendte sig imod Kvinden og sagde til Simon: “Ser du denne Kvinde? Jeg kom ind i dit Hus; du gav mig ikke Vand til mine Fødder; men hun vædede mine Fødder med sine Tårer og aftørrede dem med sit Hår.And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give Me water for My feet, but she wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

45Du gav mig intet Kys; men hun ophørte ikke med at kysse mine Fødder, fra jeg kom herind.You did not greet Me with a kiss, but she has not stopped kissing My feet since I arrived.

46Du salvede ikke mit Hoved med Olie; men hun salvede mine Fødder med Salve.You did not anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with perfume.

47Derfor siger jeg dig: Hendes mange Synder ere hende forladte, eftersom hun elskede meget; men den, hvem lidet forlades, elsker lidet.”Therefore I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven, for she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.”

48Men han sagde til hende: “Dine Synder ere forladte!”Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

49Og de, som sade til Bords med ham, begyndte at sige ved sig selv: “Hvem er denne, som endog forlader Synder?”But those at the table began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

50Men han sagde til Kvinden: “Din Tro har frelst dig, gå bort med Fred!”And Jesus told the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
