Matthæus 4
1 Da blev Jesus af Aanden ført op i Ørkenen for at fristes af Djævelen.
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 Og da han havde fastet fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter, blev han omsider hungrig.
And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.
3 Og Fristeren gik til ham og sagde: „Er du Guds Søn, da sig, at disse Stene skulle blive Brød.‟
And the tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread."
4 Men han svarede og sagde: „Der er skrevet: Mennesket skal ikke leve af Brød alene, men af hvert Ord, som udgaar igennem Guds Mund.‟
But he answered and said, "It is written, 'Humankind cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.'"
5 Da tager Djævelen ham med sig til den hellige Stad og stiller ham paa Helligdommens Tinde og siger til ham:
Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6 „Er du Guds Søn, da kast dig herned; thi der er skrevet: Han skal give sine Engle Befaling om dig, og de skulle bære dig paa Hænder, for at du ikke skal støde din Fod paa nogen Sten.‟
and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, 'He will put his angels in charge of you.' and, 'In their hands they will lift you up, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'"
7 Jesus sagde til ham: „Der er atter skrevet: Du maa ikke friste Herren din Gud.‟
Jesus said to him, "Again, it is written, 'Do not test the Lord your God.'"
8 Atter tager Djævelen ham med sig op paa et saare højt Bjerg og viser ham alle Verdens Riger og deres Herlighed; og han sagde til ham:
Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory.
9 „Alt dette vil jeg give dig, dersom du vil falde ned og tilbede mig.‟
And he said to him, "I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me."
10 Da siger Jesus til ham: „Vig bort, Satan! thi der er skrevet: Du skal tilbede Herren din Gud og tjene ham alene.‟
Then Jesus said to him, "Go away, Satan. For it is written, 'You are to worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'"
11 Da forlader Djævelen ham, og se, Engle kom til ham og tjente ham.
Then the devil left him, and look, angels came and served him.
12 Men da Jesus hørte, at Johannes var kastet i Fængsel, drog han bort til Galilæa.
Now when he heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.
13 Og han forlod Nazareth og kom og tog Bolig i Kapernaum, som ligger ved Søen, i Sebulons og Nafthalis Egne,
And leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,
14 for at det skulde opfyldes, som er talt ved Profeten Esajas, som siger:
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
15 „Sebulons Land og Nafthalis Land langs Søen, Landet hinsides Jordan, Hedningernes Galilæa,
"The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
16 det Folk, som sad i Mørke, har set et stort Lys, og for dem, som sad i Dødens Land og Skygge, for dem er der opgaaet et Lys.‟
The people sitting in darkness have seen a great light, and those living in the land and shadow of death, on them a light has dawned."
17 Fra den Tid begyndte Jesus at prædike og sige: „Omvender eder, thi Himmeriges Rige er kommet nær.‟
From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near."
18 Men da han vandrede ved Galilæas Sø, saa han to Brødre, Simon, som kaldes Peter, og Andreas, hans Broder, i Færd med at kaste Garn i Søen; thi de vare Fiskere.
And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers: Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
19 Og han siger til dem: „Følger efter mig, saa vil jeg gøre eder til Menneskefiskere.‟
And he said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of people."
20 Og de forlode straks Garnene og fulgte ham.
And they immediately left their nets and followed him.
21 Og da han derfra gik videre, saa han to andre Brødre, Jakob, Zebedæus's Søn, og Johannes, hans Broder, i Skibet med deres Fader Zebedæus, i Færd med at bøde deres Garn, og han kaldte paa dem.
Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.
22 Og de forlode straks Skibet og deres Fader og fulgte ham.
And they immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.
23 Og Jesus gik omkring i hele Galilæa, idet han lærte i deres Synagoger og prædikede Rigets Evangelium og helbredte enhver Sygdom og enhver Skrøbelighed iblandt Folket.
And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
24 Og hans Ry kom ud over hele Syrien; og de bragte til ham alle dem, som lede af mange Haande Sygdomme og vare plagede af Lidelser, baade besatte og maanesyge og værkbrudne; og han helbredte dem.
And the report about him went out into all Syria, and they brought to him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, possessed with demons, and epileptics, and paralytics; and he healed them.
25 Og store Skarer fulgte ham fra Galilæa og Dekapolis og Jerusalem og Judæa og fra Landet hinsides Jordan.
And large crowds from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan followed him.
