Lukas 11
1 Og det skete, da han var paa et Sted og bad, at en af hans Disciple sagde til ham, da han holdt op: „Herre! lær os at bede, som ogsaa Johannes lærte sine Disciple.‟
It happened he was praying in a certain place, and when he stopped, one of his disciples said to him, "Master, teach us how to pray, just as Johntaught his disciples."
2 Da sagde han til dem: „Naar I bede, da siger: Fader, helliget vorde dit Navn; komme dit Rige;
So he said to them. "When you pray, say, "Father, hallowed be thy name; May thy kingdom come,
3 giv os hver Dag vort daglige Brød;
"Give us day by day our bread for the coming day;
4 og forlad os vore Synder, thi ogsaa vi forlade hver, som er os skyldig; og led os ikke i Fristelse!‟
"Forgive us our sins; for we also forgive everyone who has offended us; "And bring us not into temptation."
5 Og han sagde til dem: „Om nogen af eder har en Ven og gaar til ham ved Midnat og siger til ham: Kære! laan mig tre Brød,
He also said to them. "Suppose you have a friend and you go to him, ‘My friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
6 efterdi en Ven af mig er kommen til mig fra Rejsen, og jeg har intet at sætte for ham;
"for a friend of mine is come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’
7 og hin saa svarer derinde fra og siger: Vold mig ikke Besvær; Døren er allerede lukket, og mine Børn ere med mig i Seng; jeg kan ikke staa op og give dig det:
"and he from indoors shall answer. ‘Do not pester me. The door is now closed, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot rise and give to you.’
8 da, siger jeg eder, om han end ikke staar op og giver ham det, fordi han er hans Ven, saa staar han dog op for hans Paatrængenheds Skyld og giver ham alt, hvad han trænger til.
"I tell you that, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunate persistence he will rise and give him whatever he needs.
9 Og jeg siger eder: Beder, saa skal eder gives; søger, saa skulle I finde; banker paa, saa skal der lukkes op for eder.
"So I say to you. "Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you.
10 Thi hver den, som beder, han faar, og den, som søger, han finder, og den, som banker paa, for ham skal der lukkes op.
"For he that asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks the door shall be opened.
11 Men hvilken Fader iblandt eder vil give sin Søn en Sten, naar han beder om Brød, eller naar han beder om en Fisk, mon han da i Stedet for en Fisk vil give ham en Slange?
"What father is there among you who, if his son asks for a loaf, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish will give him instead a serpent?
12 Eller naar han beder om et Æg, mon han da vil give ham en Skorpion?
"Or if he asks for an egg, will offer him a scorpion?
13 Dersom da I, som ere onde, vide at give eders Børn gode Gaver, hvor meget mere skal da Faderen fra Himmelen give den Helligaand til dem, som bede ham!‟
"If you give good gifts to your children, how much more shall the Father who is in heaven give the Holy spirit to those that ask him!"
14 Og han uddrev en ond Aand, og den var stum; men det skete, da den onde Aand var udfaren, talte den stumme, og Skarerne forundrede sig.
Once he was casting out a dumb demon, and when the demon was gone out, the dumb man spoke, and the people wondered.
15 Men nogle af dem sagde: „Ved Beelzebul, de onde Aanders Fyrste, uddriver han de onde Aander.‟
But some of them said, "It is by Beelzebub, the prince of demons, that he cast out demons."
16 Men andre fristede ham og forlangte af ham et Tegn fra Himmelen.
Others, tempting him, kept seeking from him a sign from heaven.
17 Men da han kendte deres Tanker, sagde han til dem: „Hvert Rige, som er kommet i Splid med sig selv, lægges øde, og Hus falder over Hus.
He knew their intentions and said to them. "Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste and house falls upon house.
18 Men hvis ogsaa Satan er kommen i Splid med sig selv, hvorledes skal hans Rige da bestaa? Thi I sige, at jeg uddriver de onde Aander ved Beelzebul.
"And if Satan also is divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand?
19 Men dersom jeg uddriver de onde Aander ved Beelzebul, ved hvem uddrive da eders Sønner dem? Derfor skulle de være eders Dommere.
"Do you say that I am casting out demons by the power of Beelzebub? If I then am casting out demons by Beelzebub, by whom are your sons casting them out? They therefore shall be your judges.
20 Men dersom jeg uddriver de onde Aander ved Guds Finger, da er jo Guds Rige kommet til eder.
"But if it is by the finger of God that I am casting out demons, then the kingdom of God is come upon you.
21 Naar den stærke bevæbnet vogter sin Gaard, bliver det, han ejer, i Fred.
"When the strong man fully aroused keeps guard over his homestead, his property is undisturbed;
22 Men naar en stærkere end han er kommen over ham og har overvundet ham, da tager han hans fulde Rustning, som han forlod sig paa, og uddeler hans Bytte.
"but when the stronger man attacks him, he takes away from the strong armor in which he was trusting and divides up the spoil.
23 Den, som ikke er med mig, er imod mig; og den, som ikke samler med mig, adspreder.
"He who is not for me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me is scattering.
24 Naar den urene Aand er faren ud af Mennesket, vandrer den igennem vandløse Steder og søger Hvile; og naar den ikke finder den, siger den: Jeg vil vende tilbage til mit Hus, som jeg gik ud af.
"Whenever a foul spirit is gone out of a man, it roams through waterless places, in search of rest; but when it can find none, it says, ‘I will go back to the house which I have left.’
25 Og naar den kommer, finder den det fejet og prydet.
When it comes and finds the house completely swept and garnished.
26 Da gaar den bort og tager syv andre Aander med sig, som ere værre end den selv, og naar de ere komne derind, bo de der; og det sidste bliver værre med dette Menneske end det første.‟
"Then it goes off and fetches seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the last state of that man is worse than the first."
27 Men det skete, medens han sagde disse Ting, da opløftede en Kvinde af Skaren sin Røst og sagde til ham: „Saligt er det Liv, som bar dig, og de Bryster, som du diede.‟
It happened while he was saying this, that a certain woman out of the crowd shouted to him, saying, "Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breast that you have sucked."
28 Men han sagde: „Ja, salige ere de, som høre Guds Ord og bevare det.‟
"No, rather," he answered, "blessed are those who listen to the word of God, and keep it."
29 Men da Skarerne strømmede til, begyndte han at sige: „Denne Slægt er en ond Slægt; et Tegn forlanger den, og der skal intet Tegn gives den uden Jonas's Tegn.
When the crowd were beginning to throng about him he proceeded to say. "This is an evil generation! It seeks a sign, and there shall be no sign be given to it except the sign of Jonah;
30 Thi ligesom Jonas blev et Tegn for Niniviterne, saaledes skal ogsaa Menneskesønnen være det for denne Slægt.
"for as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so shall the Son of man be to this generation.
31 Sydens Dronning skal oprejses ved Dommen sammen med Mændene af denne Slægt og fordømme dem; thi hun kom fra Jordens Grænser for at høre Salomons Visdom; og se, her er mere end Salomon.
"The queen of the South shall rise up in Judgement with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them; because she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the wisdom of Solomon, and lo, one greater than Solomon is here!
32 Mænd fra Ninive skulle opstaa ved Dommen sammen med denne Slægt og fordømme den; thi de omvendte sig ved Jonas's Prædiken; og se, her er mere end Jonas.
"The men of the Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with his generation and shall condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and lo! one greater than Jonah is here!
33 Ingen tænder et Lys og sætter det i Skjul, ikke heller under Skæppen, men paa Lysestagen, for at de, som komme ind, kunne se dets Skin.
"When one lights a lamp he does not put it in a cellar nor under the bushel, but on a lamp-stand that those who enter may see the light.
34 Dit Øje er Legemets Lys; naar dit Øje er sundt, er ogsaa hele dit Legeme lyst, men dersom det er daarligt, er ogsaa dit Legeme mørkt.
"The lamp of the body is your eye; when your eye is single then your whole body is full of light; but when it is evil your whole body is full of darkness.
35 Se derfor til, at det Lys, der er i dig, ikke er Mørke.
"Look carefully! Perhaps that very light of yours is darkness.
36 Dersom da hele dit Legeme er lyst, saa at ingen Del deraf er mørk, vil det være helt lyst, som naar Lyset bestraaler dig med sin Glans.‟
"If, however, your whole body is full of light, without having any part dark, it will be wholly radiant with light, as when the lamp illumines you with its bright rays."
37 Men idet han talte, beder en Farisæer ham om, at han vilde spise Middagsmaaltid hos ham, og han gik ind og satte sig til Bords.
When he had finished speaking a Pharisee asked him to dine with him; so he went in with him and reclined.
38 Men Farisæeren forundrede sig, da han saa, at han ikke toede sig først før Maaltidet.
And the Pharisee noticed, to his amazement, that he did not wash his hands before eating,
39 Men Herren sagde til ham: „I Farisæere rense nu det udvendige af Bægeret og Fadet; men eders Indre er fuldt af Rov og Ondskab.
but the Lord said to him. "You Pharisee do cleanse the outside of your cup or plate, but your secret heart is full of extortion and wickedness.
40 I Daarer! han, som gjorde det ydre, gjorde han ikke ogsaa det indre?
"Foolish men! Did not He who made the outside make the inside also?
41 Men giver det, som er indeni, til Almisse; se, saa ere alle Ting eder rene.
"Better cleanse what is within, and nothing will be unclean for you.
42 Men ve eder, I Farisæere! thi I give Tiende af Mynte og Rude og alle Haande Urter og forbigaa Retten og Kærligheden til Gud; disse Ting burde man gøre og ikke forsømme hine.
"But woe unto you Pharisee! for you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and disregard justice and the love of God; but these you ought to have done, and not leave the other undone.
43 Ve eder, I Farisæere! thi I elske den fornemste Plads i Synagogerne og Hilsenerne paa Torvene.
"Woe unto you Pharisee! for you delight in the best seats in the synagogue, and in the salutation in the market-places.
44 Ve eder, thi I ere som de ukendelige Grave, og Menneskene, som gaa over dem, vide det ikke.‟
"Woe unto you! for you are like the tombs which are hidden, and men walk over them unsuspecting."
45 Men en af de lovkyndige svarede og siger til ham: „Mester! idet du siger dette, forhaaner du ogsaa os.‟
Hereupon one of the lawyers exclaimed, "But teacher, in saying such things you are also reproaching us also."
46 Men han sagde: „Ve ogsaa eder, I lovkyndige! thi I lægge Menneskene Byrder paa, vanskelige at bære, og selv røre I ikke Byrderne med een af eders Fingre.
"Woe unto you lawyers also!" said Jesus, "for you load men with irksome burdens, and you yourselves will not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 Ve eder! thi I bygge Profeternes Grave, og eders Fædre sloge dem ihjel.
"Woe to you! for you are building the tombs of the prophets whom you ancestors killed.
48 Altsaa ere I Vidner og samtykke i eders Fædres Gerninger; thi de sloge dem ihjel, og I bygge.
"So you are witnesses, and you consent to the actions of your ancestors. for they killed them, and you build their tombs.
49 Derfor har ogsaa Guds Visdom sagt: Jeg vil sende Profeter og Apostle til dem, og nogle af dem skulle de slaa ihjel og forfølge,
"For this reason also said the Wisdom of God. ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and some they will persecute;
50 for at alle Profeternes Blod, som er udøst fra Verdens Grundlæggelse, skal kræves af denne Slægt,
"so that the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world may be required from this generation,
51 fra Abels Blod indtil Sakarias's Blod, som blev dræbt imellem Alteret og Templet; ja, jeg siger eder: Det skal kræves af denne Slægt.
"from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the alter and the sanctuary; yes; I tell you, it shall be required of this generation!
52 Ve eder, I lovkyndige! thi I have taget Kundskabens Nøgle; selv ere I ikke gaaede ind, og dem, som vilde gaa ind, have I forhindret.‟
"Woe to you lawyers, for you have taken away the key of knowledge!’ You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who are trying to enter."
53 Og da han var gaaet ud derfra, begyndte de skriftkloge og Farisæerne at trænge stærkt ind paa ham og at lokke Ord af hans Mund om flere Ting;
After he had gone away, the Scribes and the Pharisee began to set themselves vehemently against him, and to cross-question him upon many points,
54 thi de lurede paa ham for at opfange noget af hans Mund, for at de kunde anklage ham.
laying in wait for him, in order to catch a word from his lips.
