John 10
1 [Jesus continued by saying to us], “Listen carefully to what I say. Anyone who does not enter [the sheep pen] through the gate, if he climbs in some other way, he is a thief or a bandit.
" Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, den, som ikke går ind i Fårefolden gennem Døren, men stiger andensteds over, han er en Tyv og en Røver.
2 The man who enters [the pen] through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.
Men den, som går ind igennem Døren, er Fårenes Hyrde.
3 The man who watches the gate at [night] opens the gate for him. The sheep recognize the shepherd’s voice. He summons his own sheep by [calling out] the names [he has given] them. Then he leads them outside [the pen].
For ham lukker Dørvogteren op, og Fårene høre hans Røst; og han kalder sine egne Får ved Navn og fører dem ud.
4 After he has brought out all his own [sheep], he goes in front of them. His sheep follow him because they recognize [and pay attention to] his voice.
Og når han har ført alle sine egne Får ud, går han foran dem; og Fårene følge ham, fordi de kende hans Røst.
5 But they will never follow a stranger. Instead, they will run away from him, because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.”
Men en fremmed ville de ikke følge, men de ville fly fra ham, fordi de ikke kende de fremmedes Røst."
6 Jesus said that [MET] [to illustrate the difference between himself and the Pharisees, who were deceiving the people]. But they did not understand what he was telling them.
Denne Lignelse sagde Jesus til dem; men de forstode ikke, hvad det var, som han talte til dem.
7 So Jesus spoke to them again. He said, “Listen carefully to what I am saying. I am [like] [MET] a gate for the sheep [to enter the sheepfold, because I am the one who allows people to enter God’s presence].
Jesus sagde da atter til dem: "Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, jeg er Fårenes Dør.
8 All of [your religious leaders] who have come previously [without my authority] are [like] [MET] thieves and bandits [because they act violently and dishonestly for their own benefit]. But [just like] sheep do not [obey strangers, God’s people do not] pay attention to them.
Alle de, som ere komne før mig, ere Tyve og Røvere; men Fårene hørte dem ikke.
9 I am [like] a gate. Those will be saved {[God] will save all those} who come [to God] by [trusting in] me. [Just like sheep] go in and out [through the gate safely] to find pasture [MET], [I will provide for them and protect them].
Jeg er Døren; dersom nogen går ind igennem mig, han skal frelses; og han skal gå ind og gå ud og finde Føde.
10 Thieves come [to a sheep pen] only to steal or kill or destroy [sheep] [MET]. [Similarly, your religious leaders injure God’s people spiritually]. But I have come in order that people may have [eternal/spiritual] life, and that they may have abundantly [all they need to sustain them spiritually].
Tyven kommer ikke uden for at stjæle og slagte og ødelægge; jeg er kommen, for at de skulle have Liv og have Overflod.
11 I am [like] a good shepherd. A good shepherd [is willing to] die to save the sheep [MET]. [Similarly, I am ready to sacrifice myself to save those who belong to me].
Jeg er den gode Hyrde; den gode Hyrde sætter sit Liv til for Fårene.
12 A worker whom someone has hired [to look after the sheep] is not [like] the shepherd or the one who owns the sheep. So when he sees a wolf coming, he leaves the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock of sheep and [seizes one sheep and] causes [the others] to scatter.
Men Lejesvenden, som ikke er Hyrde, hvem Fårene ikke høre til ser Ulven komme og forlader Fårene og flyr, og Ulven røver dem og adspreder dem,
13 The worker runs away because he is [only] a man whom someone has hired. He is not [really] concerned about [what happens to] the sheep [MET]. [Similarly, your religious teachers do not really care what happens to you].
fordi han er en Lejesvend og ikke bryder sig om Fårene.
14 I am [like] a good shepherd. [Just like a good shepherd knows his] sheep [MET], I know those who belong to me, and they know me
Jeg er den gode Hyrde, og jeg kender mine, og mine kende mig,
15 in the same way as [my] Father knows me and I know [my] Father. Furthermore, I am [ready to] sacrifice myself for [those who belong to me].
ligesom Faderen kender mig, og jeg kender Faderen; og jeg sætter mit Liv til for Fårene.
16 And I have other people [who are not Jews] who [will some day] belong to me. They will be [like] [MET] sheep from another sheep pen. I must bring them [to God/myself] also. They will pay attention to what I say, and eventually [all those who belong to me] will be [like] one flock, and [I] will be [like] [MET] their one shepherd.
Og jeg har andre Får, som ikke høre til denne Fold; også dem bør jeg føre, og de skulle høre min Røst; og der skal blive een Hjord, een Hyrde.
17 The reason [my] Father loves me is that I will sacrifice my life. But [after I do that], I will become alive again.
Derfor elsker Faderen mig, fordi jeg sætter mit Liv til for at tage det igen.
18 No one is causing me to die. Instead, I [have chosen to] sacrifice myself. I have authority to sacrifice myself and I have authority to become alive again. That is what my Father has commanded me to do.”
Ingen tager det fra mig, men jeg sætter det til af mig selv. Jeg har Magt til at sætte det til, og jeg har Magt til at tage det igen. Dette Bud modtog jeg af min Fader."
19 After hearing these words [that Jesus said], the Jews were divided again.
Der blev atter Splid iblandt Jøderne for disse Ords Skyld.
20 Many of them said, “A demon is [controlling] him and has caused him to become crazy. (It is useless to listen to him!/Why should we listen to him?) [RHQ]”
Og mange af dem sagde: "Han er besat og raser, hvorfor høre I ham?"
21 But others said, “What he is saying is not something a man whom a demon is controlling would say. (No demon could enable a blind man to see [like he did!/] How could a demon enable a blind man to see [like he did]?) [RHQ]”
Andre sagde: "Dette er ikke Ord af en besat; mon en ond Ånd kan åbne blindes Øjne?"
22 Then it was time for the celebration [to remember when our ancestors] rededicated [the Temple in Jerusalem]. It was in winter.
Men Tempelvielsens Fest indtraf i Jerusalem. Det var Vinter;
23 Jesus was in the Temple [courtyard], walking in [the place that people called King] Solomon’s porch.
og Jesus gik omkring i Helligdommen, i Salomons Søjlegang.
24 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] gathered around him and said, “How long will you keep us from knowing for sure [if you are the Messiah]? If you are the Messiah, tell us clearly!”
Da omringede Jøderne ham og sagde til ham: "Hvor længe holder du vor Sjæl i Uvished? Dersom du er Kristus, da sig os det rent ud!"
25 Jesus answered them, “I have told you [that I am the Messiah], but you do not believe me! You should know who I am because of the miracles I do with my Father’s authority [MTY].
Jesus svarede dem: "Jeg har sagt eder det, og I tro ikke. De Gerninger, som jeg gør i min Faders Navn, de vidne om mig;
26 But instead, you do not believe in me because you do not belong to [me. You are like] [MET] sheep [who belong to a different shepherd].
men I tro ikke, fordi I ikke ere af mine Får.
27 [Just like sheep] heed the voice [of their true shepherd] [MET], my [people pay attention to what I say]. I know them, and they have become my disciples.
Mine Får høre min Røst, og jeg kender dem, og de følge mig,
29 [Those] that my Father has given to me are more precious than anything else (OR, My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than anything that opposes them). So no one can pull them away from belonging to him [MTY].
Min Fader, som har givet mig dem, er større end alle; og ingen kan rive noget af min Faders Hånd.
30 [My] father and I are equal.”
Jeg og Faderen, vi ere eet."
31 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] again picked up stones to throw at Jesus [and kill him because they were angry at his saying that he was equal with God].
Da toge Jøderne atter Sten op for at stene ham.
32 But Jesus said to them, “You have seen me perform many miracles that my Father [told me to do. You should realize from seeing them that I am equal with God]. So, because of which of these miracles [IRO] are you wanting to [kill me by] throwing stones at me?”
Jesus svarede dem: "Mange gode Gerninger har jeg vist eder fra min Fader; for hvilken af disse Gerninger stene I mig?"
33 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied, “We are [wanting to] throw stones at you not because you performed a great miracle. Instead, [we are wanting to do it] because you are dishonoring God. You are just a man, but you are saying that you are God!”
Jøderne svarede ham: "For en god Gerning stene vi dig ikke, men for Gudsbespottelse, og fordi du, som er et Menneske, gør dig selv til Gud."
34 Jesus replied to them, “In the Scriptures it is written {([someone/the Psalmist]) has written} [RHQ] [what God said to the rulers whom he had appointed], ‘I have said that you are [like] gods.’
Jesus svarede dem: "Er der ikke skrevet i eders Lov: Jeg har sagt: I ere Guder?
35 God said that [to those leaders when he appointed them. No one objected to that]. And nothing that is in Scripture can be set aside {no one can set aside anything that is in Scripture}.
Når den nu har kaldt dem Guder, til hvem Guds Ord kom (og Skriften kan ikke rokkes),
36 But I am the one [my] Father set apart to completely belong to him. He sent me here into this world. So (why are you angry with me for saying that [I am equal with God when I say] that I am the man who is also God?/you should not be angry with me for saying that [I am equal with God when I say] that I am the person who is both God and man!) [RHQ]
sige I da til den, hvem Faderen har Helliget og sendt til Verden: Du taler bespotteligt, fordi jeg sagde: Jeg er Guds Søn?
37 If I were not doing the miracles that my Father [told me to do, I would not expect] you to believe in me.
Dersom jeg ikke gør min Faders Gerninger, så tror mig ikke!
38 But because I perform these miracles, believe [what] these miracles [show about me], even though you do not believe what I [say]. If you do that, then you will know and understand that [my] Father has a close relationship with me, and I have a close relationship with [my] Father.”
Men dersom jeg gør dem, så tror Gerningerne, om I end ikke ville tro mig, for at I kunne indse og erkende, at Faderen er i mig, og jeg i Faderen."
39 After they heard that, they tried to seize him again, but he got away from them.
De søgte da atter at gribe ham; og han undslap af deres Hånd.
40 Then Jesus went, along [with us], back across [to the east side of] the Jordan [River]. We went to the place where John was previously baptizing [people]. He/We stayed there [for a few weeks].
Og han drog atter bort hinsides Jordan til det Sted, hvor Johannes først døbte, og han blev der.
41 Many people came to Jesus. They were saying, “John never performed a miracle, [but this man has performed many miracles]! Everything that John said about this man is true!”
Og mange kom til ham, og de sagde: "Johannes gjorde vel intet Tegn; men alt, hvad Johannes sagde om denne, var sandt."
42 Many people [who came] there believed ([that Jesus was the Messiah/that Jesus truly had come from God]).
Og mange troede på ham der.
