Lukas 5
1 Men det skete, da Folkeskaren trængte sig sammen om ham og hørte Guds Ord, og han stod ved Genezareths Sø,
On one occasion the crowd was pressing on Him and listening to God's Message, while He was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret.
2 da så han to Skibe stå ved Søen; men Fiskerne vare gåede fra dem og toede Garnene.
He, however, saw two fishing-boats drawn up on the beach (for the men had gone away from them and were washing the nets),
3 Og han gik om Bord i et af Skibene, som var Simons, og bad ham at lægge lidt fra Land; og han satte sig og lærte Skarerne fra Skibet.
and going on board one of them, which was Simon's He asked him to push out a little from land. Then He sat down and taught the crowd of people from the boat.
4 Men da han holdt op med at tale, sagde han til Simon: "Far ud på Dybet, og kaster eders Garn ud til en Dræt!"
When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, "Push out into deep water, and let down your nets for a haul."
5 Og Simon svarede og sagde til ham: "Mester! vi have arbejdet hele Natten og fik intet; men på dit Ord vil jeg kaste Garnene ud."
"Rabbi," replied Peter, "all night long we have worked hard and caught nothing; but at your command I will let down the nets."
6 Og da de gjorde det, fangede de en stor Mængde Fisk, og deres Garn sønderreves.
This they did, and enclosed a vast number of fish; and their nets began to break.
7 Og de vinkede ad deres Staldbrødre i det andet Skib, at de skulde komme og hjælpe dem; og de kom og de fyldte begge Skibene, så at de var nær ved at synke.
So they signalled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them; they came, and they filled both the boats so that they almost sank.
8 Men da Simon Peter så det, faldt han ned for Jesu Knæ og sagde: "Gå bort fra mig, thi jeg er en syndig Mand, Herre!"
When Simon Peter saw this, he fell down at the knees of Jesus, and exclaimed, "Master, leave my boat, for I am a sinful man."
9 Thi en Rædsel var påkommen ham og alle dem, som vare med ham, over den Fiskedræt, som de havde fået;
(For he was astonished and terrified--he and all his companions--at the haul of fish which they had taken;
10 ligeledes også Jakob og Johannes, Zebedæus's Sønner, som vare Simons Staldbrødre. Og Jesus sagde til Simon: "Frygt ikke, fra nu af skal du fange Mennesker."
and so were Simon's partners James and John, the sons of Zabdi.) But Jesus replied to Simon, "Fear not: from this time you shall be a catcher of men."
11 Og de lagde Skibene til Land og forlode alle Ting og fulgte ham.
Then, after bringing their boats to land, they left everything and followed Him.
12 Og det skete, medens han var i en af Byerne, se, da var der en Mand fuld af Spedalskhed; og da han så Jesus, faldt han på sit Ansigt, bad ham og sagde: "Herre! om du vil, kan du rense mig."
On another occasion, when He was in one of the towns, there was a man there covered with leprosy, who, seeing Jesus, threw himself at His feet and implored Him, saying, "Sir, if only you are willing, you are able to make me clean."
13 Og han udrakte Hånden og rørte ved ham og sagde: "Jeg vil; bliv ren!" Og straks forlod Spedalskheden ham.
Reaching out His hand and touching him, Jesus said, "I am willing; be cleansed!" And instantly the leprosy left him.
14 Og han bød ham, at han skulde ikke sige det til nogen, men "gå bort, og fremstil dig for Præsten, og offer for din Renselse, således som Moses har befalet, til Vidnesbyrd for dem!"
He ordered him to tell no one. "But go," He said, "show yourself to the Priest, and make the offering for your purification which Moses appointed, as evidence for them."
15 Men Rygtet om ham udbredte sig end mere, og store Skarer kom sammen for at høre og for at helbredes for deres Sygdomme.
But all the more the report about Him spread abroad, and great multitudes crowded to hear Him and to be cured of their diseases;
16 Men han gik bort til Ørkenerne og bad.
but Jesus Himself constantly withdrew into the Desert and there prayed.
17 Og det skete en af de Dage, at han lærte, og der sad Farisæere og Lovlærere, som vare komne fra enhver Landsby i Galilæa og Judæa og fra Jerusalem; og Herrens Kraft var hos ham til at helbrede.
One day He was teaching, and there were Pharisees and teachers of the Law sitting there who had come from every village in Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present for Him to cure people.
18 Og se, nogle Mænd bare på en Seng en Mand, som var værkbruden, og de søgte at bære ham ind og lægge ham foran ham.
And a party of men came carrying a palsied man on a bed, and they endeavoured to bring him in and lay him before Jesus.
19 Og da de ikke fandt nogen Vej til at bære ham ind for Skarens Skyld, stege de op oven på Taget og firede ham tillige med Sengen ned imellem Tagstenene midt iblandt dem foran Jesus.
But when they could find no way of doing so because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down through the tiling--bed and all--into the midst, in front of Jesus.
20 Og da han så deres Tro, sagde han: "Menneske! dine Synder ere dig forladte."
He saw their faith and said to him, "Friend, your sins are forgiven."
21 Og de skriftkloge og Farisæerne begyndte at tænke således ved sig selv: "Hvem er denne, som taler Gudsbespottelser? Hvem kan forlade Synder, uden Gud alene?"
Then the Scribes and Pharisees began to cavil, asking, "Who is this, uttering blasphemies? Who but God alone can forgive sins?"
22 Men da Jesus kendte deres Tanker, svarede han og sagde til dem: "Hvad tænke I på i eders Hjerter?
Well aware of their reasonings, Jesus answered their questions by asking in turn, "What is this that you are debating in your hearts?
23 Hvilket er lettest at sige: Dine Synder ere dig forladte? eller at sige: Stå op og gå?
Which is easier? --to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Rise and walk'?
24 Men for at I skulle vide, at Menneskesønnen har Magt på Jorden til at forlade Synder," så sagde han til den værkbrudne: "Jeg siger dig, stå op, og tag din Seng, og gå til dit Hus!"
But to prove to you that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" --Turning to the paralytic He said, "I bid you, Rise, take up your bed, and go home."
25 Og han stod straks op for deres Øjne og tog det, som han lå på, og gik hen til sit Hus og priste Gud.
Instantly he stood up in their presence, took up the mattress on which he had been lying, and went away to his home, giving glory to God.
26 Og Forfærdelse betog alle, og de priste Gud; og de bleve fulde af Frygt og sagde: "Vi have i Dag set utrolige Ting."
Amazement seized them all. "Glory to God!" was the abiding feeling. Yet fear flashed through their minds and they said, "We have seen strange things to-day."
27 Og derefter gik han ud og så en Tolder ved Navn Levi sidde ved Toldboden, og han sagde til ham: "Følg mig!"
After this He went out and noticed a tax-gatherer, Levi by name, sitting at the Toll office; and He said to him, "Follow me."
28 Og han forlod alle Ting og stod op og fulgte ham.
He rose, left everything, and followed Him.
29 Og Levi gjorde et stort Gæstebud for ham i sit Hus; og der var en stor Skare af Toldere og andre, som sade til Bords med dem.
Levi also gave a great entertainment at his house in honour of Jesus, and there was a large party of tax-gatherers and others at table with them.
30 Og Farisæerne og deres Skriftkloge knurrede imod hans Disciple og sagde: "Hvorfor spise og drikke I med Toldere og Syndere?"
This led the Pharisees and Scribes of their party to expostulate with His disciples and ask, "Why are you eating and drinking with these tax-gatherers and notorious sinners?"
31 Og Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: "De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge.
But Jesus replied to them, "It is not men in good health who require a physician, but the sick.
32 Jeg er ikke kommen for at kalde retfærdige, men Syndere til Omvendelse."
I have not come to call the righteous to repentance, but sinners."
33 Men de sagde til ham: "Johannes's Disciple faste ofte og holde Bønner og Farisæernes ligeså; men dine spise og drikke?"
Again they said to Him, "John's disciples fast often and pray, as do also those of the pharisees; but yours eat and drink."
34 Men Jesus sagde til dem: "Kunne I vel få Brudesvendene til at faste, så længe Brudgommen er hos dem?
"Can you compel the bridal party to fast," replied Jesus, "so long as they have the bridegroom among them?
35 Men der skal komme Dage, da Brudgommen bliver tagen fra dem; da skulle de faste i de Dage."
But a time for this will come, when the Bridegroom has been taken away from them: then, at that time, they will fast."
36 Men han sagde også en Lignelse til dem: "Ingen river en Lap af et nyt Klædebon og sætter den på et gammelt Klædebon; ellers river han både det nye sønder, og Lappen fra det nye vil ikke passe til det gamle.
He also spoke in figurative language to them. "No one," He said, "tears a piece from a new garment to mend an old one. Otherwise he would not only spoil the new, but the patch from the new would not match the old.
37 Og ingen kommer ung Vin på gammle Læderflasker; ellers sprænger den unge Vin Læderflaskerne, og den spildes, og Læderflaskerne ødelægges.
Nor does any one pour new wine into old wine-skins. Otherwise the new wine would burst the skins, the wine itself would be spilt, and the skins be destroyed.
38 Men man skal komme ung Vin på nye Læderflasker, så blive de begge bevarede.
But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.
39 Og ingen, som har drukket den gamle, vil have den unge; thi han siger: Den gamle er god."
Nor does any one after drinking old wine wish for new; for he says, 'The old is better.'"
