John 18
1 When Jesus had said these things, He went with His disciples across the Kidron ravine, where there was a garden, into which He and His disciples entered.
Da Jesus havde sagt dette, gik han ud med sine Disciple over Kedrons Bæk, hvor der var en Have, i hvilken han gik ind med sine Disciple.
2 Now Judas, who was betraying Him, also knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with His disciples.
Men ogsaa Judas, som forraadte ham, kendte Stedet; thi Jesus samledes ofte der med sine Disciple.
3 Then Judas, leading a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
Saa tager Judas Vagtafdelingen og Svende fra Ypperstepræsterne og Farisæerne og kommer derhen med Fakler og Lamper og Vaaben.
4 Therefore Jesus, knowing everything that would happen to Him, went forward and asked them, “Who are you looking for?”
Da nu Jesus vidste alt, hvad der skulde komme over ham, gik han frem og sagde til dem: „Hvem lede I efter?‟
5 They answered, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus told them, “I AM.” Judas, who betrayed Him, also stood with them.
De svarede ham: „Jesus af Nazareth.‟ Jesus siger til dem: „Det er mig.‟ Men ogsaa Judas, som forraadte ham, stod hos dem.
6 Now when He told them, “I AM,” they drew back and fell to the ground.
Som han da sagde til dem: „Det er mig, ‟ vege de tilbage og faldt til Jorden.
7 Then He asked them again, “Who are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
Han spurgte dem nu atter: „Hvem lede I efter?‟ Men de sagde: „Jesus af Nazareth.‟
8 Jesus answered, “I told you that I AM. So, if you are looking for me, let these go their way,”
Jesus svarede: „Jeg har sagt eder, at det er mig; dersom I da lede efter mig, saa lader disse gaa!‟
9 that the saying might be fulfilled which He spoke, “I have lost none of those who You gave me.”
for at det Ord skulde opfyldes, som han havde sagt: „Jeg mistede ingen af dem, som du har givet mig.‟
10 Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.
Simon Peter, som havde et Sværd, drog det nu og slog Ypperstepræstens Tjener og afhuggede hans højre Øre. Men Tjeneren hed Malkus.
11 So Jesus told Peter, “Put your sword into its sheath! Shouldn’t I drink the cup that my Father has given me?”
Da sagde Jesus til Peter: „Stik dit Sværd i Skeden! Skal jeg ikke drikke den Kalk, som min Fader har givet mig?‟
12 Then the detachment of soldiers and their commander and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and tied Him up.
Vagtafdelingen og Krigsøversten og Jødernes Svende grebe da Jesus og bandt ham.
13 They led Him away to Annas first, because he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
Og de førte ham først til Annas; thi han var Svigerfader til Kajfas, som var Ypperstepræst i det Aar.
14 It was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
Men det var Kajfas, som havde givet Jøderne det Raad, at det var gavnligt, at eet Menneske døde for Folket.
15 Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so was another disciple. Since the high priest knew that disciple, he entered with Jesus into the high priest’s court,
Men Simon Peter og en anden Discipel fulgte Jesus, og den Discipel var kendt med Ypperstepræsten, og han gik ind med Jesus i Ypperstepræstens Gaard.
16 but Peter was standing just outside the door. So the other disciple, who the high priest knew, went out and spoke to the woman who guarded the door, and brought Peter in.
Men Peter stod udenfor ved Døren. Da gik den anden Discipel, som var kendt med Ypperstepræsten, ud og sagde det til Dørvogtersken og førte Peter ind.
17 Then the maidservant who kept the door asked Peter, “You aren’t one of this man’s disciples, too, are you?” He said, “I am not.”
Pigen, som var Dørvogterske, siger da til Peter: „Er ogsaa du af dette Menneskes Disciple?‟ Han siger: „Nej, jeg er ikke.‟
18 Because it was cold, the servants and the officers were standing there warming themselves, having made a charcoal fire. Peter was also with them, standing and warming himself.
Men Tjenerne og Svendene stode og havde gjort en Kulild (thi det var koldt) og varmede sig; men ogsaa Peter stod hos dem og varmede sig.
19 Then the high priest asked Jesus about His disciples and His doctrine.
Ypperstepræsten spurgte nu Jesus om hans Disciple og om hans Lære.
20 Jesus answered him, “I have spoken openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jews come together. I said nothing in secret.
Jesus svarede ham: „Jeg har talt frit ud til Verden; jeg har altid lært i Synagoger og i Helligdommen, der, hvor alle Jøderne komme sammen, og i Løndom har jeg intet talt.
21 Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me to tell you what I told them. They certainly know what I said.”
Hvorfor spørger du mig? Spørg dem, som have hørt, hvad jeg talte til dem; se, de vide, hvad jeg har sagt.‟
22 When He had said these things, one of the officers who stood by hit Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, “Is that how you answer the high priest?”
Men som han sagde dette, gav en af Svendene, som stod hos, Jesus et Slag i Ansigtet og sagde: „Svarer du Ypperstepræsten saaledes?‟
23 Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken evil, testify about the evil, but if I have spoken honestly, why do you hit me?”
Jesus svarede ham: „Har jeg talt ilde, da bevis, at det er ondt; men har jeg talt ret, hvorfor slaar du mig da?‟
24 Then Annas sent Him, still bound, to Caiaphas, the high priest.
Annas sendte ham nu bunden til Ypperstepræsten Kajfas.
25 Now Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. Therefore they asked him, “You aren’t one of His disciples, too, are you?” He denied it, saying, “I am not!”
Men Simon Peter stod og varmede sig. Da sagde de til ham: „Er ogsaa du af hans Disciple?‟ Han nægtede det og sagde: „Nej, jeg er ikke.‟
26 One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter cut off, said, “Didn’t I see you in the garden with Him?”
En af Ypperstepræstens Tjenere, som var en Frænde af ham, hvis Øre Peter havde afhugget, siger: „Saa jeg dig ikke i Haven med ham?‟
27 Peter then denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.
Da nægtede Peter det atter, og straks galede Hanen.
28 Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium. It was early morning. They themselves didn’t go into the Praetorium, so that they wouldn’t be defiled, and so that they might eat the Passover supper.
De føre nu Jesus fra Kajfas til Landshøvdingens Borg; men det var aarle. Og de gik ikke ind i Borgen, for at de ikke skulde besmittes, men kunde spise Paaske.
29 So Pilate came out to them and asked, “What charges do you bring against this man?”
Pilatus gik da ud til dem, og han siger: „Hvad Klagemaal føre I mod dette Menneske?‟
30 They answered, “If this man wasn’t a criminal, we wouldn’t have handed him over to you.”
De svarede og sagde til ham: „Var han ikke en Ugerningsmand, da havde vi ikke overgivet ham til dig.‟
31 Then Pilate told them, “You take Him and judge Him according to your Law.” Therefore the Jews said to him, “It’s illegal for us to put anyone to death.”
Da sagde Pilatus til dem: „Tager I ham og dømmer ham efter eders Lov!‟ Da sagde Jøderne til ham: „Det er os ikke tilladt at aflive nogen; ‟
32 This happened so that the words would be fulfilled which Jesus had spoken indicating the kind of death he was going to die.
for at Jesu Ord skulde opfyldes, det, som han sagde, da han gav til Kende, hvilken Død han skulde dø.
33 Then Pilate went back into the Praetorium, summoned Jesus, and asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”
Da gik Pilatus igen ind i Borgen og kaldte paa Jesus og sagde til ham: „Er du Jødernes Konge?‟
34 Jesus answered, “Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this about me?”
Jesus svarede: „Siger du dette af dig selv, eller have andre sagt dig det om mig?‟
35 Pilate answered, “I’m not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered You to me. What have You done?”
Pilatus svarede: „Mon jeg er en Jøde? dit Folk og Ypperstepræsterne have overgivet dig til mig; hvad har du gjort?‟
36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom doesn’t belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, then my servants would be fighting to keep me from being delivered up to the Jews; but as it is, my kingdom isn’t from here.”
Jesus svarede: „Mit Rige er ikke af denne Verden. Var mit Rige af denne Verden, havde mine Tjenere stridt for, at jeg ikke var bleven overgiven til Jøderne; men nu er mit Rige ikke deraf.‟
37 Pilate therefore asked Him, “So You are a king?” Jesus answered, “You are right in saying that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify about the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice.”
Da sagde Pilatus til ham: „Du er altsaa dog en Konge?‟ Jesus svarede: „Du siger det, jeg er en Konge. Jeg er dertil født og dertil kommen til Verden, at jeg skal vidne om Sandheden. Hver den, som er af Sandheden, hører min Røst.‟
38 “What is truth?” Pilate asked. After asking this, he went out again to the Jews and said, “I find no basis for a charge against Him,
Pilatus siger til ham: „Hvad er Sandhed?‟ Og da han havde sagt dette, gik han igen ud til Jøderne, og han siger til dem: „Jeg finder ingen Skyld hos ham.
39 but you have a custom that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Therefore you decide: do you want me to release the King of the Jews to you?”
Men I have den Skik, at jeg løslader eder en om Paasken; ville I da, at jeg skal løslade eder Jødernes Konge?‟
40 Then they all shouted back, saying, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.
Da raabte de alle igen og sagde: „Ikke ham, men Barabbas; ‟ og Barabbas var en Røver.
