Lukas 4
1 Sedan gick Jesus ifrå Jordan igen, full med den Helga Anda, och vardt hafder af Andanom uti öknena;
As Jesus left the Jordan [River valley], the Holy Spirit was completely controlling him.
2 Och frestades i fyratio dagar af djefvulen, och åt intet i de dagar; utan då de ändade voro, sedan hungrade honom.
For 40 days the Spirit led him around in the desolate area. During that time Jesus was being tempted by the devil {the devil was tempting him}, and Jesus did not eat anything. When that time ended, he was [very] hungry.
3 Då sade djefvulen till honom: Äst du Guds Son, så säg till denna stenen, att han varder bröd.
Then the devil said to Jesus, “Because you [claim that you] ([have a relationship with] God as a son [has with his father] [MET]/are the man who is both God and man), [prove it by] telling these stones to become bread [so that you can eat them]!”
4 Då svarade Jesus, och sade till honom: Det är skrifvet: Menniskan lefver icke allenast af bröd, utan af hvart och ett Guds ord.
Jesus replied, “[No, I will not change stones into bread, because it is written] {[Moses] wrote} [in the Scriptures] that [eating] food sustains people physically, but it does not [sustain them spiritually. They also need food for their spirits].”
5 Och djefvulen hade honom på ett högt berg, och viste honom all rike i verldene, uti ett ögnablick.
Then the devil took him on top of [a high mountain] and showed him in an instant all the nations in the world.
6 Och djefvulen sade till honom: Dig vill jag gifva all denna magten, och deras härlighet; ty de äro mig i händer gifven, och hvem jag vill, gifver jag dem.
Then he said to [Jesus], “I will give you the authority [to rule] all these areas and will make you famous. [I can do this] because [God] has permitted me [to control these areas], and I can allow anyone I desire to rule them!
7 Vill du nu falla ned, och tillbedja mig, så skola de all höra dig till.
So if you worship me, I will [let] you [rule] them all!”
8 Jesus svarade, och sade till honom: Gack bort ifrå mig, Satan; ty det är skrifvet: Din Herra Gud skall du tillbedja, och honom allena skall du dyrka.
But Jesus replied, “[No, I] will not [worship you, because] it is written {[the Psalmist] wrote} [in the Scriptures], ‘It is the Lord, your God, whom you must worship, and you must serve only him!’”
9 Och hade han honom till Jerusalem, och satte honom uppå tinnarna af templet, och sade till honom: Äst du Guds Son, så gif dig här nedföre.
Then the devil took [Jesus] to Jerusalem. He set him on the highest part of the Temple and said to him, “Because you [claim that you] ([have a relationship with God as a son has with his father] [MET]/are the man who is both God and man), [prove it by] jumping down from here.
10 Ty det är skrifvet: Han skall befalla sina Änglar om dig; att de skola förvara dig;
[You will not be hurt], because it is written {the [Psalmist] wrote} [in the Scriptures], ‘God will command his angels to protect you [(sg)].
11 Och bära dig på sina händer, att du icke stöter din fot emot stenen.
They will lift you up with their hands [when you are falling], so that [you will not get hurt]. You will not [even] strike your foot on a stone.’”
12 Då svarade Jesus, och sade till honom: Det är sagdt: Du skall icke fresta Herran din Gud.
But Jesus replied, “[No, I] will not [do that, because] it is written {[Moses] wrote} [in the Scriptures]: ‘Do not try to test the Lord your God [to see if he will prevent something bad from happening to you when you do something foolish]’.”
13 Och sedan djefvulen hade fullkomnat all frestelsen, for han ifrå honom till en tid.
Then, after the devil had finished trying to tempt [Jesus] in many ways, he left him. He wanted to try to tempt him later at an appropriate time.
14 Och Jesus kom, genom Andans kraft, in i Galileen igen; och ryktet gick ut om honom i all den ängden deromkring.
As the Spirit empowered him, Jesus returned to Galilee [district. People] throughout all that region heard about what he [was doing].
15 Och han lärde i deras Synagogor, och vardt prisad af allom.
He taught [people] in their (synagogues/meeting places). [As a result], he was praised by everyone {everyone praised him}.
16 Och han kom till Nazareth, der han uppfödder var; och gick om Sabbathsdagen in i Synagogon, som hans sedvänja var, och stod upp, och ville läsa.
Then [Jesus] went to Nazareth, [the town] where he grew up. (On the Sabbath/On the Jewish rest day) he went (to the synagogue/to the Jewish meeting place), as he usually did. He stood up [to indicate that he wanted] to read [Scriptures] to them.
17 Då vardt honom fången Esaie Prophetens bok; och då han lät upp bokena, fann han det rummet, der skrifvet står:
A scroll containing [the words] that the prophet Isaiah [had written] was given to him {[Someone] gave to him a scroll containing [the words] that the prophet Isaiah [had written]}. He opened the scroll and found the place from which he [wanted to] read. [He read these words]:
18 Herrans Ande är öfver mig, derföre att han hafver smort mig; till att förkunna Evangelium dem fattigom hafver han sändt mig, till att läka de förkrossada hjerta; till att predika de fångar frihet, och dem blindom syn, och dem sönderslagnom förlossning;
The Spirit (of the Lord/of God) is upon me. He has appointed [MTY] me to declare God’s good news to the poor. He has sent me [here] to proclaim that God will deliver those whom [Satan] has captured, and he will [enable me to] enable those who are blind to see. He will enable me to free people who have been oppressed {whom [others] have oppressed}.
19 Till att predika Herrans behageliga år.
And he sent me to declare that now is the time when (the Lord/God) will [act] favorably [toward people].
20 Sedan lade han boken tillhopa, och fick tjenarenom, och satte sig; och allas deras ögon, som i Synagogone vore, aktade på honom.
Then he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down [to teach the people]. Everyone in the synagogue was looking intently [MTY] at him.
21 Då begynte han till att säga till dem: I dag är denna Skrift fullbordad för edor öron.
He said to them, “Today as you have been hearing [MTY] [me speak], [I am beginning] to fulfill this Scripture passage.”
22 Och de båro honom alle vittnesbörd, och förundrade sig på de nådefulla ord, som gingo af hans mun, och sade: Är icke denne Josephs son?
[At first] everyone there spoke well about him, and they were amazed at the charming words that he spoke. [But then some of] them said, “(He is [only] Joseph’s son!/Isn’t he [only] Joseph’s son?) [RHQ] [So] ([it is useless for us(exc) to listen to what he says!/why should we(exc) listen to what he says]?) [RHQ]”
23 Då sade han till dem: Visserliga mågen I säga till mig denna liknelsen: Läkare, läk dig sjelfvan; huru stor ting hafve vi hört i Capernaum skedd vara; gör ock sådana här i ditt fädernesland.
He said to them, “Surely [some of] you will quote to me the proverb that says, ‘Doctor, heal yourself!’ [What you will mean is], ‘People told us that you did miracles in Capernaum [town, but we(exc) do not know if those reports are true. So] do miracles here in your own hometown, too!’”
24 Sade han: Sannerliga säger jag eder: Ingen Prophet är afhållen i sitt fädernesland.
Then he said, “It is certainly true that [people] do not accept [the message of] a prophet when he speaks in his hometown, [just like you(pl) are not accepting my message now].
25 Men jag säger eder i sanning: Många enkor voro i Israel, uti Elie tid, då himmelen igenlyckt var i tre år och sex månader, då stor hunger var öfver hela landet.
But think about this: There were many widows in Israel during the time when [the prophet] Elijah [lived. During that time], because of there being no rain [MTY] for three years and six months, there was a great famine throughout the country.
26 Och till ingen af dem vardt Elias sänd; utan till ena enko uti Sareptha Sidons.
But [God] did not send Elijah to [help] any of those [Jewish] widows. [God sent him] to Zarepath [town] near Sidon [city], to [help] a [non-Jewish] widow.
27 Och månge spitelske voro i Israel, i Elisei Prophetens tid; och ingen af dem vardt ren gjord, förutan Naeman af Syrien.
There were also many [Jewish] lepers in Israel during the time when the prophet Elisha [lived]. But [Elisha] did not heal any of them. He healed only Naaman, a [non-Jewish] man from Syria.”
28 Och alle, de i Synagogon voro, uppfylldes med vrede, då de detta hörde;
When all the people in the synagogue heard him say that, they were very angry, [because they realized that he was inferring that he similarly would help non-Jewish people instead of helping Jews] (OR, [that they also were not worthy of receiving God’s help]).
29 Och uppreste sig emot honom, och drefvo honom utu staden, och ledde honom ut öfverst på klinten af berget, der deras stad på byggder var, och ville stört honom der utföre;
So they all got up and shoved him out of the town. They took him to the top of the hill outside their town in order to throw him off the cliff [and kill him].
30 Men han gick midt igenom dem sin väg.
But he [simply] walked through their midst and went away.
31 Och han kom ned till den staden Capernaum i Galileen; och der lärde han dem om Sabbatherna.
[One day] Jesus went [with his disciples] down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee [district]. On the next (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) (OR, Each (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest)), he taught the people ([in the synagogue/in the Jewish meeting place]).
32 Och de förundrade sig på hans lärdom; ty med hans tal var väldighet.
They were continually amazed at what he was teaching, because [he spoke] ([with authority/as people speak who have] the right to command others what to do).
33 Och uti Synagogon var en menniska besatt med en oren djefvuls anda; och han ropade med höga röst,
[That day], (OR, On one of those Jewish days of rest, ) there was a man in the synagogue who was controlled by an evil spirit. That man shouted very loudly,
34 Sägandes: Hej, hvad hafve vi med dig, Jesu Nazarene? Äst du kommen till att förderfva oss? Jag vet ho du äst, nämliga den Guds Helige.
“Hey! Jesus, from Nazareth! [We(exc) evil spirits] have nothing in common with you, so ([do not interfere with us now!/why should you interfere with us now]?) [RHQ] (Do not destroy us [now!]/Have you come to destroy us [now]?) [RHQ] I know who you are. You are the Holy One [who has come] from God!”
35 Och Jesus näpste honom, sägandes: Var tyst, och gack ut af honom. Och djefvulen kastade honom midt ibland dem, och gick ut af honom, och gjorde honom ingen skada.
Jesus rebuked [the evil spirit], saying, “Be quiet! And come out [of the man]!” The demon threw the man down on the ground in the midst of the people. But without harming the man, the demon left him.
36 Och en förfärelse kom öfver dem alla; och de talade inbördes med hvarannan, sägande: Hvad skall detta vara? Ty han bjuder de orena andar med magt och väldighet, och de gå ut.
The people were all amazed. They said to each other, “(What he says to the demons [has great power!/] [kind of] teaching is this?) [RHQ] He speaks to them like he knows that they must obey him, and as a result they leave people!”
37 Och ryktet gick ut om honom allestäds i de landsändar deromkring.
The people were telling everyone in [every village] in the surrounding region what Jesus [had done].
38 Då Jesus uppstod utu Synagogon, gick han in i Simons hus. Och Simons svära betvingades med stora skälfvosot; då bådo de honom för henne.
Jesus [and his disciples] left (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place) and entered Simon’s house. Simon’s mother-in-law was sick and had a high fever. So [others in Simon’s family] (OR, [the disciples]) asked Jesus to [heal] her.
39 Och han trädde in till henne, och näpste skälfvone; och skälfvan öfvergaf henne; och hon stod straxt upp, och tjente dem.
So he bent over her and commanded the fever to leave her. At once she became well! She got up and served them [some food].
40 Då solen nedergick, alle de som hade sjukt folk af allahanda sjukor, ledde dem till honom; och han lade händerna på hvar och en, och gjorde dem helbregda.
When the sun was setting [that day, and the restriction about not traveling] (on [the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]) [was ended], many people [HYP] whose [friends or relatives] were sick or who had various diseases brought them to Jesus. He put his hands on them and healed [all of] them.
41 Foro också djeflarna ut af mångom, ropade och sade: Du äst Christus, Guds Son; då näpste han dem, och stadde icke till att de skulle tala; ty de visste, att han var Christus.
He also was [expelling demons] from many people. As the demons left those people, they shouted to Jesus, “You are (the Son of God/the one who is God and man)!” But he rebuked those demons and would not allow them to tell [people about him], because they knew that he was the Messiah, and [for various reasons he did not want everyone to know that yet].
42 Då dager vardt, gick han ut i ödemarken; och folket sökte honom, och kommo till honom, och förhöllo honom, att han icke skulle gå ifrå dem.
[Early] the next morning [Jesus] left that house and went to an uninhabited place [to pray]. Many people searched for him, and when they found him they kept urging him not to leave them.
43 Då sade han till dem: Andra städer måste jag ock predika Guds rike; ty jag är dertill sänd.
But he said to them, “I must tell [people] in other towns also the good message about how God wants to rule [MET] their lives, because that is what I was sent {[God] sent me} to do.”
44 Och han predikade uti de Synagogor i Galileen.
So he kept preaching in (the synagogues/Jewish worship places) [in various towns] in Judea [province].
