Luke 8
1 Soon afterwards, he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of God’s Kingdom. With him were the twelve,
Og det skete i Tiden der efter, at han rejste igennem Byer og Landsbyer og prædikede og forkyndte Evangeliet om Guds Rige, og med ham de tolv
2 and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;
og nogle Kvinder, som vare helbredte fra onde Ånder og Sygdomme, nemlig: Maria, der kaldes Magdalene, af hvem syv onde Ånder vare udfarne;
3 and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others who served them from their possessions.
og Johanna, Herodes's Husfoged Kuzas Hustru, og Susanna og mange andre, som tjente dem med, hvad de ejede.
4 When a great multitude came together and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable:
Men da en stor Skare kom sammen, og de droge til ham fra de forskellige Byer, sagde han ved en Lignelse:
5 “The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
"En Sædemand gik ud at så sin Sæd; og idet han såede, faldt noget ved Vejen og blev nedtrådt, og Himmelens Fugle åde det op.
6 Other seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
Og noget faldt på Klippen; og da det voksede op, visnede det, fordi det ikke havde Væde.
7 Other fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
Og noget faldt midt iblandt Torne, og Tornene voksede op med og kvalte det.
8 Other fell into the good ground and grew and produced one hundred times as much fruit.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
Og noget faldt i den gode Jord, og det voksede op og bar hundrede Fold Frugt." Da han sagde dette, råbte han: "Den, som har Øren at høre med, han høre!"
9 Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”
Men hans Disciple spurgte ham, hvad denne Lignelse skulde betyde.
10 He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
Og han sagde: "Eder er det givet at kende Guds Riges Hemmeligheder, men de andre i Lignelser, for at de, skønt seende, ikke skulle se, og, skønt hørende, ikke skulle forstå.
11 “Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
Men dette er Lignelsen: Sæden er Guds Ord.
12 Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
Men de ved Vejen ere de, som høre det; derefter kommer Djævelen og tager Ordet bort af deres Hjerte, for at de ikke skulle tro og blive frelste.
13 Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
Men de på Klippen ere de, som modtage Ordet med Glæde, når de høre det, og disse have ikke Rod; de tro til en Tid og falde fra i Fristelsens Tid.
14 What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life; and they bring no fruit to maturity.
Men det, som faldt iblandt Torne, det er dem, som have hørt og så gå hen og kvæles under Livets Bekymringer og Rigdom og Nydelser og ikke bære moden Frugt.
15 Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.
Men det i den gode Jord, det er dem, som, når de have hørt Ordet, beholde det i et smukt og godt Hjerte og bære Frugt i Udholdenhed.
16 “No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.
Men ingen, som tænder et Lys, skjuler det med et Kar eller sætter det under en Bænk; men han sætter det på en Lysestage, for at de, som komme ind, kunne se Lyset.
17 For nothing is hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.
Thi der er ikke noget skjult, som jo skal blive åbenbart; og ikke noget lønligt, som jo skal blive kendt og komme for Lyset.
18 Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever does not have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”
Ser derfor til, hvorledes I høre; thi den, som har, ham skal der gives; og den, som ikke har, fra ham skal endog det tages, han synes at have."
19 His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.
Men hans Moder og Brødre kom til ham og kunde ikke nå frem til ham for Skaren.
20 Some people told him, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”
Og det blev ham meddelt: "Din Moder og dine Brødre stå udenfor og begære at se dig."
21 But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
Men han svarede og sagde til dem: "Min Moder og mine Brødre ere disse, som høre Guds Ord og gøre efter det."
22 Now on one of those days, he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.
Og det skete en af de Dage, at han gik om Bord i et Skib tillige med sine Disciple, og han sagde til dem: "Lader os fare over til hin Side af Søen;" og de sejlede ud.
23 But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.
Men medens de sejlede, faldt han i Søvn; og en Stormvind for ned over Søen, og Skibet blev fuldt af Vand, og de vare i Fare.
24 They came to him and awoke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are dying!” He awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; then they ceased, and it was calm.
Da trådte de hen og vækkede ham og sagde: "Mester, Mester! vi forgå." Men han stod op og truede Vinden og Vandets Bølger; og de lagde sig, og det blev blikstille.
25 He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid, they marveled, saying to one another, “Who is this then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
Og han sagde til dem: "Hvor, er eders Tro?" Men de frygtede og undrede sig, og sagde til hverandre: "Hvem er dog denne, siden han byder både over Vindene og Vandet, og de ere ham lydige?"
26 Then they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
Og de sejlede ind til Gadarenernes Land, som ligger lige over for Galilæa.
27 When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and did not live in a house, but in the tombs.
Men da han trådte ud på Landjorden, mødte der ham en Mand fra Byen, som i lang Tid havde været besat af onde Ånder og ikke havde haft Klæder på og ikke opholdt sig i Hus, men i Gravene.
28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me!”
Men da han så Jesus, råbte han og faldt ned for ham og sagde med høj Røst: "Hvad har jeg med dig at gøre, Jesus, den højeste Guds Søn? jeg beder dig om, at du ikke vil pine mig."
29 For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.
Thi han bød den urene Ånd at fare ud af Manden; thi i lange Tider havde den revet ham med sig, og han blev bunden med Lænker og Bøjer og bevogtet, og han sønderrev, hvad man bandt ham med, og dreves af den onde Ånd ud i Ørkenerne.
30 Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
Men Jesus spurgte ham og sagde: "Hvad er dit Navn?" Men han sagde: "Leion"; thi mange onde Ånder vare farne i ham.
Og de bade ham om at han ikke vilde byde dem at fare ned i Afgrunden; (Abyssos g12)
32 Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. Then he allowed them.
men der var sammesteds en stor Hjord Svin, som græssede på Bjerget; og de bade ham om, at han vilde tilstede dem at fare i dem; og han tilstedte dem det.
33 The demons came out of the man and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
Men de onde Ånder fore ud at Manden og fore i Svinene, og Hjorden styrtede sig ned over Brinken ud i Søen og druknede.
34 When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.
Men da Hyrderne så det, som var sket, flyede de og forkyndte det i Byen og på Landet.
35 People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
Da gik de ud for af se det, som var sket, og de kom til Jesus og fandt Manden, af hvem de onde Ånder vare udfarne, siddende ved Jesu Fødder, påklædt og ved Samling; og de frygtede.
36 Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.
Og de, som havde set det, fortalte dem, hvorledes den besatte var bleven frelst.
37 All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. Then he entered into the boat and returned.
Og hele Mængden fra Gadarenernes Omegn bad ham om, at han vilde gå bort fra dem; thi de vare betagne af stor Frygt. Men han gik om Bord i et Skib og vendte tilbage igen.
38 But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
Men Manden, af hvem de onde Ånder vare udfarne, bad ham om, at han måtte være hos ham; men han lod ham fare og sagde:
39 “Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
"Vend tilbage til dit Hus, og fortæl, hvor store Ting Gud har gjort imod dig." Og han gik bort og kundgjorde over hele Byen, hvor store Ting Jesus havde gjort imod ham.
40 When Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
Men det skete, da Jesus kom tilbage, tog Skaren imod ham; thi de ventede alle på ham.
41 Behold, a man named Jairus came. He was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into his house,
Og se, det kom en Mand, som hed Jairus, og han var Forstander for Synagogen; og han faldt ned for Jesu Fødder og bad ham komme ind i hans Hus;
42 for he had an only born daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.
thi han havde en enbåren Datter, omtrent tolv År gammel, og hun droges med Døden. Men idet han gik, trængte Skarerne sig sammen om ham.
43 A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians and could not be healed by any,
Og en Kvinde, som havde haft Blodflod i tolv År og havde kostet al sin Formue på Læger og ikke kunde blive helbredt af nogen,
44 came behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak. Immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
hun gik til bagfra og rørte ved Fligen af hans Klædebon, og straks standsedes hendes Blodflod.
45 Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
Og Jesus sagde: "Hvem var det, som rørte ved mig?" Men da alle nægtede det, sagde Peter og de, som vare med ham: "Mester! Skarerne trykke og trænge dig, og du siger: Hvem var det, som rørte ved mig?"
46 But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”
Men Jesus sagde: "Der rørte nogen ved mig; thi jeg mærkede, at der udgik en Kraft fra mig."
47 When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
Men da Kvinden så, at det ikke var skjult, kom hun bævende og faldt ned for ham og fortalte i alt Folkets Påhør, af hvad Årsag hun havde rørt ved ham, og hvorledes hun straks var bleven helbredt.
48 He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
Men han sagde til hende: "Datter! din Tro har frelst dig; gå bort med Fred!"
49 While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the Teacher.”
Medens han endnu talte, kommer der en fra Synagogeforstanderens Hus og siger til ham: "Din Datter er død; umag ikke Mesteren!"
50 But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Do not be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”
Men da Jesus hørte det, svarede han ham: "Frygt ikke; tro blot; så skal hun blive frelst."
51 When he came to the house, he did not allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.
Men da han kom til Huset, tillod han ingen at gå ind med sig uden Peter og Johannes og Jakob og Pigens Fader og Moder.
52 All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Do not weep. She is not dead, but sleeping.”
Og de græd alle og holdt Veklage over hende; men han sagde: "Græder ikke; hun er ikke død, men sover."
53 They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.
Og de lo ad ham; thi de vidste, at hun var død.
54 But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”
Men han greb hendes Hånd og råbte og sagde: "Pige, stå op!"
55 Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.
Og hendes Ånd vendte tilbage, og hun stod straks op; og han befalede, at de skulde give hende noget at spise.
56 Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.
Og hendes Forældre bleve forfærdede; men han bød dem, at de ikke måtte sige nogen det, som var sket.
