Luke 8 (DA31) · Opened

1Og det skete i Tiden der efter, at han rejste igennem Byer og Landsbyer og prædikede og forkyndte Evangeliet om Guds Rige, og med ham de tolvSoon afterward, Jesus traveled from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The Twelve were with Him,

2og nogle Kvinder, som vare helbredte fra onde Ånder og Sygdomme, nemlig: Maria, der kaldes Magdalene, af hvem syv onde Ånder vare udfarne;as well as some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

3og Johanna, Herodes's Husfoged Kuzas Hustru, og Susanna og mange andre, som tjente dem med, hvad de ejede.Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were ministering to them out of their own means.

4Men da en stor Skare kom sammen, og de droge til ham fra de forskellige Byer, sagde han ved en Lignelse:While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told them this parable:

5“En Sædemand gik ud at så sin Sæd; og idet han såede, faldt noget ved Vejen og blev nedtrådt, og Himmelens Fugle åde det op.“A farmer went out to sow his seed. And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, where it was trampled, and the birds of the air devoured it.

6Og noget faldt på Klippen; og da det voksede op, visnede det, fordi det ikke havde Væde.Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.

7Og noget faldt midt iblandt Torne, og Tornene voksede op med og kvalte det.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the seedlings.

8Og noget faldt i den gode Jord, og det voksede op og bar hundrede Fold Frugt.” Da han sagde dette, råbte han: “Den, som har Øren at høre med, han høre!”Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprang up and produced a crop—a hundredfold.” As Jesus said this, He called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

9Men hans Disciple spurgte ham, hvad denne Lignelse skulde betyde.Then His disciples asked Him what this parable meant.

10Og han sagde: “Eder er det givet at kende Guds Riges Hemmeligheder, men de andre i Lignelser, for at de, skønt seende, ikke skulle se, og, skønt hørende, ikke skulle forstå.He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that, ‘though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.’

11Men dette er Lignelsen: Sæden er Guds Ord.Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.

12Men de ved Vejen ere de, som høre det; derefter kommer Djævelen og tager Ordet bort af deres Hjerte, for at de ikke skulle tro og blive frelste.The seeds along the path are those who hear, but the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved.

13Men de på Klippen ere de, som modtage Ordet med Glæde, når de høre det, og disse have ikke Rod; de tro til en Tid og falde fra i Fristelsens Tid.The seeds on rocky ground are those who hear the word and receive it with joy, but they have no root. They believe for a season, but in the time of testing, they fall away.

14Men det, som faldt iblandt Torne, det er dem, som have hørt og så gå hen og kvæles under Livets Bekymringer og Rigdom og Nydelser og ikke bære moden Frugt.The seeds that fell among the thorns are those who hear, but as they go on their way, they are choked by the worries, riches, and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature.

15Men det i den gode Jord, det er dem, som, når de have hørt Ordet, beholde det i et smukt og godt Hjerte og bære Frugt i Udholdenhed.But the seeds on good soil are those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, cling to it, and by persevering produce a crop.

16Men ingen, som tænder et Lys, skjuler det med et Kar eller sætter det under en Bænk; men han sætter det på en Lysestage, for at de, som komme ind, kunne se Lyset.No one lights a lamp and covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

17Thi der er ikke noget skjult, som jo skal blive åbenbart; og ikke noget lønligt, som jo skal blive kendt og komme for Lyset.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be made known and brought to light.

18Ser derfor til, hvorledes I høre; thi den, som har, ham skal der gives; og den, som ikke har, fra ham skal endog det tages, han synes at have.”Pay attention, therefore, to how you listen. Whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”

19Men hans Moder og Brødre kom til ham og kunde ikke nå frem til ham for Skaren.Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him, but they were unable to reach Him because of the crowd.

20Og det blev ham meddelt: “Din Moder og dine Brødre stå udenfor og begære at se dig.”He was told, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to see You.”

21Men han svarede og sagde til dem: “Min Moder og mine Brødre ere disse, som høre Guds Ord og gøre efter det.”But He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear the word of God and carry it out.”

22Og det skete en af de Dage, at han gik om Bord i et Skib tillige med sine Disciple, og han sagde til dem: “Lader os fare over til hin Side af Søen;” og de sejlede ud.One day Jesus said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side of the lake.” So He got into a boat with them and set out.

23Men medens de sejlede, faldt han i Søvn; og en Stormvind for ned over Søen, og Skibet blev fuldt af Vand, og de vare i Fare.As they sailed, He fell asleep, and a windstorm came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.

24Da trådte de hen og vækkede ham og sagde: “Mester, Mester! vi forgå.” Men han stod op og truede Vinden og Vandets Bølger; og de lagde sig, og det blev blikstille.The disciples went and woke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters, and they subsided, and all was calm.

25Og han sagde til dem: “Hvor, er eders Tro?” Men de frygtede og undrede sig, og sagde til hverandre: “Hvem er dog denne, siden han byder både over Vindene og Vandet, og de ere ham lydige?”“Where is your faith?” He asked. Frightened and amazed, they asked one another, “Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey Him!”

26Og de sejlede ind til Gadarenernes Land, som ligger lige over for Galilæa.Then they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, across the lake from Galilee.

27Men da han trådte ud på Landjorden, mødte der ham en Mand fra Byen, som i lang Tid havde været besat af onde Ånder og ikke havde haft Klæder på og ikke opholdt sig i Hus, men i Gravene.When Jesus stepped ashore, He was met by a demon-possessed man from the town. For a long time this man had not worn clothing or lived in a house, but he stayed in the tombs.

28Men da han så Jesus, råbte han og faldt ned for ham og sagde med høj Røst: “Hvad har jeg med dig at gøre, Jesus, den højeste Guds Søn? jeg beder dig om, at du ikke vil pine mig.”When the man saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him, shouting in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You not to torture me!”

29Thi han bød den urene Ånd at fare ud af Manden; thi i lange Tider havde den revet ham med sig, og han blev bunden med Lænker og Bøjer og bevogtet, og han sønderrev, hvad man bandt ham med, og dreves af den onde Ånd ud i Ørkenerne.For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and been driven by the demon into solitary places.

30Men Jesus spurgte ham og sagde: “Hvad er dit Navn?” Men han sagde: “Legion”; thi mange onde Ånder vare farne i ham.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him.

31Og de bade ham om at han ikke vilde byde dem at fare ned i Afgrunden;And the demons kept begging Jesus not to order them to go into the Abyss.

32men der var sammesteds en stor Hjord Svin, som græssede på Bjerget; og de bade ham om, at han vilde tilstede dem at fare i dem; og han tilstedte dem det.There on the hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding. So the demons begged Jesus to let them enter the pigs, and He gave them permission.

33Men de onde Ånder fore ud at Manden og fore i Svinene, og Hjorden styrtede sig ned over Brinken ud i Søen og druknede.Then the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.

34Men da Hyrderne så det, som var sket, flyede de og forkyndte det i Byen og på Landet.When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside.

35Da gik de ud for at se det, som var sket, og de kom til Jesus og fandt Manden, af hvem de onde Ånder vare udfarne, siddende ved Jesu Fødder, påklædt og ved Samling; og de frygtede.So the people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man whom the demons had left, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

36Og de, som havde set det, fortalte dem, hvorledes den besatte var bleven frelst.Meanwhile, those who had seen it reported how the demon-possessed man had been healed.

37Og hele Mængden fra Gadarenernes Omegn bad ham om, at han vilde gå bort fra dem; thi de vare betagne af stor Frygt. Men han gik om Bord i et Skib og vendte tilbage igen.Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to depart from them, because great fear had taken hold of them. So He got into the boat and started back.

38Men Manden, af hvem de onde Ånder vare udfarne, bad ham om, at han måtte være hos ham; men han lod ham fare og sagde:The man whom the demons had left begged to go with Jesus. But He sent him away, saying,

39“Vend tilbage til dit Hus, og fortæl, hvor store Ting Gud har gjort imod dig.” Og han gik bort og kundgjorde over hele Byen, hvor store Ting Jesus havde gjort imod ham.“Return home and describe how much God has done for you.” So the man went away and proclaimed all over the town how much Jesus had done for him.

40Men det skete, da Jesus kom tilbage, tog Skaren imod ham; thi de ventede alle på ham.When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him.

41Og se, det kom en Mand, som hed Jairus, og han var Forstander for Synagogen; og han faldt ned for Jesu Fødder og bad ham komme ind i hans Hus;Just then a synagogue leader named Jairus came and fell at Jesus’ feet. He begged Him to come to his house,

42thi han havde en enbåren Datter, omtrent tolv År gammel, og hun droges med Døden. Men idet han gik, trængte Skarerne sig sammen om ham.because his only daughter, who was about twelve, was dying. As Jesus went with him, the crowds pressed around Him,

43Og en Kvinde, som havde haft Blodflod i tolv År og havde kostet al sin Formue på Læger og ikke kunde blive helbredt af nogen,including a woman who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years. She had spent all her money on physicians, but no one was able to heal her.

44hun gik til bagfra og rørte ved Fligen af hans Klædebon, og straks standsedes hendes Blodflod.She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.

45Og Jesus sagde: “Hvem var det, som rørte ved mig?” Men da alle nægtede det, sagde Peter og de, som vare med ham: “Mester! Skarerne trykke og trænge dig, og du siger: Hvem var det, som rørte ved mig?”“Who touched Me?” Jesus asked. But they all denied it. “Master,” said Peter, “the people are crowding and pressing against You.”

46Men Jesus sagde: “Der rørte nogen ved mig; thi jeg mærkede, at der udgik en Kraft fra mig.”But Jesus declared, “Someone touched Me, for I know that power has gone out from Me.”

47Men da Kvinden så, at det ikke var skjult, kom hun bævende og faldt ned for ham og fortalte i alt Folkets Påhør, af hvad Årsag hun havde rørt ved ham, og hvorledes hun straks var bleven helbredt.Then the woman, seeing that she could not escape notice, came trembling and fell down before Him. In the presence of all the people, she explained why she had touched Him and how she had immediately been healed.

48Men han sagde til hende: “Datter! din Tro har frelst dig; gå bort med Fred!”“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

49Medens han endnu talte, kommer der en fra Synagogeforstanderens Hus og siger til ham: “Din Datter er død; umag ikke Mesteren!”While He was still speaking, someone arrived from the house of the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” he told Jairus. “Do not bother the Teacher anymore.”

50Men da Jesus hørte det, svarede han ham: “Frygt ikke; tro blot; så skal hun blive frelst.”But Jesus overheard them and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”

51Men da han kom til Huset, tillod han ingen at gå ind med sig uden Peter og Johannes og Jakob og Pigens Fader og Moder.When He entered the house, He did not allow anyone to go in with Him except Peter, John, James, and the child’s father and mother.

52Og de græd alle og holdt Veklage over hende; men han sagde: “Græder ikke; hun er ikke død, men sover.”Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”

53Og de lo ad ham; thi de vidste, at hun var død.And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54Men han greb hendes Hånd og råbte og sagde: “Pige, stå op!”But Jesus took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

55Og hendes Ånd vendte tilbage, og hun stod straks op; og han befalede, at de skulde give hende noget at spise.Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given something to eat.

56Og hendes Forældre bleve forfærdede; men han bød dem, at de ikke måtte sige nogen det, som var sket.Her parents were astounded, but Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
