Lukas 11
1 Og det skete, da han var på et Sted og bad, at en af hans Disciple sagde til ham, da han holdt op: "Herre! lær os at bede, som også Johannes lærte sine Disciple."
When he finished praying in a certain place, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as Yochanan also taught his disciples.”
2 Da sagde han til dem: "Når I bede, da siger: Fader, Helliget vorde dit Navn; komme dit Rige;
He said to them, “When you pray, say, ‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
3 giv os hver dag vort daglige Brød;
Give us day by day our daily bread.
4 og forlad os vore Synder, thi også vi forlade hver, som er os skyldig; og led os ikke i Fristelse!"
Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’”
5 Og han sagde til dem: "Om nogen af eder har en Ven og går til ham ved Midnat og siger til ham: Kære! lån mig tre Brød,
He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight and tell him, ‘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 has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’
7 og hin så svarer derinde fra og siger: Vold mig ikke Besvær; Døren er allerede lukket, og mine Børn ere med mig i Seng; jeg kan ikke stå op og give dig det:
and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’?
8 da, siger jeg eder, om han end ikke står op og giver ham det, fordi han er hans Ven, så står han dog op for hans Påtrængenheds Skyld og giver ham alt, hvad han trænger til.
I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.
9 Og jeg siger eder: Beder, så skal eder gives; søger, så skulle I finde; banker på, så skal der lukkes op for eder.
“I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.
10 Thi hver den, som beder, han får, og den, som søger, han finder, og den, som banker på, for ham skal der lukkes op.
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
11 Men hvilken Fader iblandt eder vil give sin Søn en Sten, når han beder om Brød, eller når han beder om en Fisk, mon han da i Stedet for en Fisk vil give ham en Slange?
“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?
12 Eller når han beder om et Æg, mon han da vil give ham en Skorpion?
Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he?
13 Dersom da I, som ere onde, vide at give eders Børn gode Gaver, hvor meget mere skal da Faderen fra Himmelen give den Helligånd til dem, som bede ham!"
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”
14 Og han uddrev en ond Ånd, og den var stum; men det skete, da den onde Ånd var udfaren, talte den stumme, og Skaren forundrede sig.
He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. When the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the multitudes marvelled.
15 Men nogle af dem sagde: "Ved Beelzebul, de onde Ånders Fyrste, uddriver han de onde Ånder."
But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
16 Men andre fristede ham og forlangte af ham et Tegn fra Himmelen.
Others, testing him, sought 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.
But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. A house divided against itself falls.
18 Men hvis også Satan er kommen i Splid med sig selv, hvorledes skal hans Rige da bestå? Thi l sige, at jeg uddriver de onde Ånder ved Beelzebul.
If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.
19 Men dersom jeg uddriver de onde Ånder ved Beelzebul, ved hvem uddrive da eders Sønner dem? Derfor skulle de være eders Dommere.
But if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
20 Men dersom jeg uddriver de onde Ånder ved Guds Finger, da er jo Guds Rige kommet til eder.
But if I by God’s finger cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come to you.
21 Når den stærke bevæbnet vogter sin Gård, bliver det, han ejer, i Fred.
“When the strong man, fully armed, guards his own dwelling, his goods are safe.
22 Men når en stærkere end han er kommen over ham og har overvundet ham, da tager han hans fulde Rustning, som han forlod sig på, og uddeler hans Bytte.
But when someone stronger attacks him and overcomes him, he takes from him his whole armour in which he trusted, and divides his plunder.
23 Den, som ikke er med mig, er imod mig; og den, som ikke samler med mig, adspreder.
“He who is not with me is against me. He who doesn’t gather with me scatters.
24 Når den urene Ånd er faren ud af Mennesket, vandrer den igennem vandløse Steder og søger Hvile; og når den ikke finder den, siger den: Jeg vil vende tilbage til mit Hus, som jeg gik ud af.
The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of the man, passes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, ‘I will turn back to my house from which I came out.’
25 Og når den kommer, finder den det fejet og prydet.
When he returns, he finds it swept and put in order.
26 Da går den bort og tager syv andre Ånder med sig, som ere værre end den selv, og når de ere komne derind, bo de der; og det sidste bliver værre med dette Menneske end det første."
Then he goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes 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 came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman out of the multitude lifted up her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts which nursed you!”
28 Men han sagde: "Ja, salige ere de, som høre Guds Ord og bevare det."
But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear 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 multitudes were gathering together to him, he began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks after a sign. No sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
30 Thi ligesom Jonas blev et Tegn for Niniviterne, således skal også Menneskesønnen være det for denne Slægt.
For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will also 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 will rise up in the judgement with the men of this generation and will condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, one greater than Solomon is here.
32 Mænd fra Ninive skulle opstå 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 Nineveh will stand up in the judgement with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the proclaiming of Jonah; and behold, one greater than Jonah is here.
33 Ingen tænder et Lys og sætter det i Skjul, ikke heller under Skæppen, men på Lysestagen, for at de, som komme ind, kunne se dets Skin.
“No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.
34 Dit Øje er Legemets Lys; når dit Øje er sundt, er også hele dit Legeme lyst, men dersom det er dårligt, er også dit Legeme mørkt.
The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.
35 Se derfor til, at det Lys, der er i dig, ikke er Mørke.
Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.
36 Dersom da hele dit Legeme et lyst, så at ingen Del deraf er mørk, vil det være helt lyst, som når Lyset bestråler dig med sin Glans."
If therefore your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly full of light, as when the lamp with its bright shining gives you light.”
37 Men idet han talte, beder en Farisæer ham om, at han vilde spise Middagsmåltid hos ham, og han gik ind og satte sig til Bords.
Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in and sat at the table.
38 Men Farisæeren forundrede sig, da han så, at han ikke toede sig først før Måltidet.
When the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.
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.
The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
40 I Dårer! han, som gjorde det ydre, gjorde han ikke også det indre?
You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?
41 Men giver det, som er indeni, til Almisse; se, så ere alle Ting eder rene.
But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.
42 Men ve eder, I Farisæere! thi I give Tiende af Mynte og Rude og alle Hånde Urter og forbigå Retten og Kærligheden til Gud; disse Ting burde man gøre og ikke forsømme hine.
But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and God’s love. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
43 Ve eder, I Farisæere! thi I elske den fornemste Plads i Synagogerne og Hilsenerne på Torvene.
Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
44 Ve eder, thi I ere som de ukendelige Grave, og Menneskene, som gå over dem, vide det ikke."
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like hidden graves, and the men who walk over them don’t know it.”
45 Men en af de lovkyndige svarede og siger til ham: "Mester! idet du siger dette, forhåner du også os,"
One of the Torah scholars answered him, “Rabbi, in saying this you insult us also.”
46 Men han sagde: "Ve også eder, I lovkyndige! thi I lægge Menneskene Byrder på, vanskelige at bære, og selv røre I ikke Byrderne med een af eders Fingre.
He said, “Woe to you Torah scholars also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens.
47 Ve eder! thi I bygge Profeternes Grave, og eders Fædre sloge dem ihjel.
Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Altså ere I Vidner og samtykke i eders Fædres Gerninger; thi de sloge dem ihjel, og I bygge.
So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.
49 Derfor har også Guds Visdom sagt: Jeg vil sende Profeter og Apostle til dem, og nogle af dem skulle de slå ihjel og forfølge,
Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and emissaries; and some of them they will kill and persecute,
50 for at alle Profeternes Blod, som er udøst fra Verdens Grundlæggelse, skal kræves af denne Slægt,
that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of 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 Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.
52 Ve eder, I lovkyndige! thi I have taget Kundskabens Nøgle; selv ere I ikke gåede ind, og dem, som vilde gå ind, have I forhindret."
Woe to you Torah scholars! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”
53 Og da han var gået ud derfra, begyndte de skriftkloge og Farisæerne at trænge stærkt ind på ham og at lokke Ord af hans Mund om flere Ting;
As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him,
54 thi de lurede på ham for at opfange noget af hans Mund, for at de kunde anklage ham.
lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.
