Luke 17
1 Jesus said to his disciples, ‘It is inevitable that there should be temptations but sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting!
Men han sagde til sine Disciple: „Det er umuligt, at Forargelser ikke skulde komme; men ve den, ved hvem de komme!
2 It would be better for them if they had been flung into the sea with a millstone round their neck, rather than that they should cause even one of these little ones to stumble.
Det er bedre for ham, om en Møllesten er lagt om hans Hals, og han er kastet i Havet, end at han skulde forarge een af disse smaa.
3 Be on your guard! If your brother or sister does wrong, rebuke them; but if they repent, forgive them.
Vogter paa eder selv! Dersom din Broder synder, da irettesæt ham; og dersom han angrer, da tilgiv ham!
4 Even if they wrong you seven times a day, but turns to you every time and says “I am sorry,” you must forgive them.’
Og dersom han syv Gange om Dagen synder imod dig og syv Gange vender tilbage til dig og siger: Jeg angrer det, da skal du tilgive ham.‟
5 ‘Give us more faith,’ said the apostles to the Master;
Og Apostlene sagde til Herren: „Giv os mere Tro!‟
6 but the Master said, ‘If your faith were only like a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree “Be uprooted and planted in the sea,” and it would obey you.
Men Herren sagde: „Dersom I havde Tro som et Sennepskorn, da kunde I sige til dette Morbærfigentræ: Ryk dig op med Rode, og plant dig i Havet, og det skulde adlyde eder.
7 Which of you, if he had a servant ploughing, or tending the sheep, would say to him, when he came in from the fields, “Come at once and take your place at the table,”
Men hvem af eder, som har en Tjener, der pløjer eller vogter, siger til ham, naar han kommer hjem fra Marken: Gaa straks hen og sæt dig til Bords?
8 Instead of saying “Prepare my dinner, and then make yourself ready and serve me while I am eating and drinking, and after that you will eat and drink yourself”?
Vil han ikke tværtimod sige til ham: Tilbered, hvad jeg skal have til Nadvere, og bind op om dig, og vart mig op, medens jeg spiser og drikker; og derefter maa du spise og drikke?
9 Does he feel grateful to his servant for doing what he is told?
Mon han takker Tjeneren, fordi han gjorde det, som var befalet? Jeg mener det ikke.
10 And so with you – when you have done all that you have been told, still say “We are but useless servants; we have done no more than we ought to have done.”’
Saaledes skulle ogsaa I, naar I have gjort alle de Ting, som ere eder befalede, sige: Vi ere unyttige Tjenere; kun hvad vi vare skyldige at gøre, have vi gjort.‟
11 On the way to Jerusalem Jesus passed between Samaria and Galilee.
Og det skete, medens han var paa Vej til Jerusalem, at han drog midt imellem Samaria og Galilæa.
12 As he was entering a village, ten lepers met him.
Og da han gik ind i en Landsby, mødte der ham ti spedalske Mænd, som stode langt borte,
13 Standing still, some distance off, they called out loudly, ‘Jesus! Sir! Pity us!’
og de opløftede Røsten og sagde: „Jesus, Mester, forbarm dig over os!‟
14 When Jesus saw them, he said, ‘Go and show yourselves to the priest.’ And, as they were on their way, they were made clean.
Og da han saa dem, sagde han til dem: „Gaar hen og fremstiller eder for Præsterne!‟ Og det skete, medens de gik bort, bleve de rensede.
15 One of them, finding he was cured, came back, praising God loudly,
Men en af dem vendte tilbage, da han saa, at han var helbredet, og priste Gud med høj Røst.
16 and threw himself on his face at Jesus’ feet, thanking him for what he had done; and this man was a Samaritan.
Og han faldt paa sit Ansigt for hans Fødder og takkede ham; og denne var en Samaritan.
17 ‘Were not all the ten made clean? exclaimed Jesus. But the nine – where are they?
Men Jesus svarede og sagde: „Bleve ikke de ti rensede? hvor ere de ni?
18 Were there none to come back and praise God except this foreigner?
Fandtes der ingen, som vendte tilbage for at give Gud Ære, uden denne fremmede?‟
19 Get up,’ he said to him, ‘and go on your way. Your faith has delivered you.’
Og han sagde til ham: „Staa op, gaa bort; din Tro har frelst dig!‟
20 Being once asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was to come, Jesus answered, ‘The kingdom of God does not come in a way that can be seen,
Men da han blev spurgt af Farisæerne om, naar Guds Rige kommer, svarede han dem og sagde: „Guds Rige kommer ikke saaledes, at man kan vise derpaa.
21 nor will people say “Look, here it is!” or “There it is!”; for the kingdom of God is within you!
Ikke heller vil man sige: Se her, eller: Se der er det; thi se, Guds Rige er inden i eder.‟
22 The day will come,’ he said to his disciples, ‘when you will long to see but one of the days of the Son of Man, and will not see it.
Men han sagde til Disciplene: „Der skal komme Dage, da I skulle attraa at se en af Menneskesønnens Dage, og I skulle ikke se den.
23 People will say to you “There he is!” Or “Here he is!” Do not go and follow them.
Og siger man til eder: Se der, eller: Se her er han, saa gaar ikke derhen, og løber ikke derefter!
24 For, just as lightning will lighten and flare from one side of the heavens to the other, so will it be with the Son of Man.
Thi ligesom Lynet, naar det lyner fra den ene Side af Himmelen, skinner til den anden Side af Himmelen, saaledes skal Menneskesønnen være paa sin Dag.
25 But first he must undergo much suffering, and he must be rejected by the present generation.
Men først bør han lide meget og forkastes af denne Slægt.
26 As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be again in the days of the Son of Man.
Og som det skete i Noas Dage, saaledes skal det ogsaa være i Menneskesønnens Dage:
27 They were eating and drinking and marrying and being married, up to the very day on which Noah entered the ark, and then the flood came and destroyed them all.
De spiste, drak, toge til Ægte, bleve bortgiftede indtil den Dag, da Noa gik ind i Arken, og Syndfloden kom og ødelagde alle.
28 So, too, in the days of Lot. People were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building;
Ligeledes, som det skete i Loths Dage: De spiste, drak, købte, solgte, plantede, byggede;
29 but, on the very day on which Lot came out of Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from the skies and destroyed them all.
men paa den Dag, da Loth gik ud af Sodoma, regnede Ild og Svovl ned fra Himmelen og ødelagde dem alle:
30 It will be the same on the day on which the Son of Man reveals himself.
paa samme Maade skal det være paa den Dag, da Menneskesønnen aabenbares.
31 On that day, if a person is on their house-top and their goods in the house, they must not go down to get them; nor again must one who is on the farm turn back.
Paa den Dag skal den, som er paa Taget og har sine Ejendele i Huset, ikke stige ned for at hente dem; og ligesaa skal den, som er paa Marken, ikke vende tilbage igen!
32 Remember Lot’s wife.
Kommer Loths Hustru i Hu!
33 Whoever is eager to get the most out of their life will lose it; but whoever will lose it will preserve it.
Den, som søger at bjærge sit Liv, skal miste det; og den, som mister det, skal beholde Livet.
34 On that night, I tell you, of two people on the same bed, one will be taken and the other left;
Jeg siger eder: I den Nat skulle to Mænd være paa eet Leje; den ene skal tages med, og den anden skal lades tilbage.
35 of two women grinding grain together, one will be taken and the other left.’
To Kvinder skulle male paa samme Kværn; den ene skal tages med, og den anden skal lades tilbage.
[To Mænd skulle være paa Marken; den ene skal tages med, og den anden skal lades tilbage.‟]
37 ‘Where will it be, Master?’ asked the disciples. ‘Where there is a body,’ said Jesus, ‘there will the vultures flock.’
Og de svare og sige til ham: „Hvor, Herre?‟ Men han sagde til dem: „Hvor Aadselet er, der ville ogsaa Ørnene samle sig.‟
