John 13

1 It was now just before the Passover Feast, and Jesus knew that His hour had come to leave this world and return to the Father. Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the very end.

1 Men før Påskehøjtiden, da Jesus vidste, at hans Time var kommen, til at han skulde gå bort fra denne Verden til Faderen, da, ligesom han havde elsket sine egne, som vare i Verden, så elskede han dem indtil Enden.

2 The evening meal was underway, and the devil had already put into the heart of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.

2 Og medens der holdtes Aftensmåltid, da Djævelen allerede havde indskudt i Judas's, Simons Søns, Iskariots Hjerte, at han skulde forråde ham;

3 Jesus knew that the Father had delivered all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was returning to God.

3 da Jesus vidste, at Faderen havde givet ham alle Ting i Hænde, og at han var udgået fra Gud og gik hen til Gud:

4 So He got up from the supper, laid aside His outer garments, and wrapped a towel around His waist.

4 så rejser han sig fra Måltidet og lægger sine Klæder fra sig, og han tog et Linklæde og bandt det om sig.

5 After that, He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and dry them with the towel that was around Him.

5 Derefter hælder han Vand i Vaskefadet og begyndte at to Disciplenes Fødder og at tørre dem med Linklædet, som han var ombunden med.

6 He came to Simon Peter, who asked Him, “Lord, are You going to wash my feet?”

6 Han kommer da til Simon Peter; og denne siger til ham: “Herre! tor du mine Fødder?”

7 Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”

7 Jesus svarede og sagde til ham: “Hvad jeg gør, ved du ikke nu, men du skal forstå det siden efter.”

8 “Never shall You wash my feet!” Peter told Him. Jesus answered, “Unless I wash you, you have no part with Me.”

8 Peter siger til ham: “Du skal i al Evighed ikke to mine Fødder.” Jesus svarede ham: “Dersom jeg ikke tor dig, har du ikke Lod sammen med mig.”

9 “Then, Lord,” Simon Peter replied, “not only my feet, but my hands and my head as well!”

9 Simon Peter siger til ham: “Herre! ikke mine Fødder alene, men også Hænderne og Hovedet.”

10 Jesus told him, “Whoever has already bathed needs only to wash his feet, and he will be completely clean. And you are clean, though not all of you.”

10 Jesus siger til ham: “Den, som er tvættet, har ikke nødig at to andet end Fødderne, men er ren over det hele; og I ere rene, men ikke alle.”

11 For He knew who would betray Him. That is why He said, “Not all of you are clean.”

11 Thi han kendte den, som forrådte ham; derfor sagde han: “I ere ikke alle rene.”

12 When Jesus had washed their feet and put on His outer garments, He reclined with them again and asked, “Do you know what I have done for you?

12 Da han nu havde toet deres Fødder og havde taget sine Klæder og atter sat sig til Bords, sagde han til dem: “Vide I, hvad jeg har gjort ved eder?

13 You call Me Teacher and Lord, and rightly so, because I am.

13 I kalde mig Mester og Herre, og I tale ret, thi jeg er det.

14 So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.

14 Når da jeg, Herren og Mesteren, har toet eders Fødder, så ere også I skyldige at to hverandres Fødder.

15 I have set you an example so that you should do as I have done for you.

15 Thi jeg har givet eder et Eksempel, for at, ligesom jeg gjorde ved eder, skulle også I gøre.

16 Truly, truly, I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.

16 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, en Tjener er ikke større end sin Herre, ikke heller et Sendebud større end den, som har sendt ham.

17 If you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.

17 Når I vide dette, ere I salige, om I gøre det.

18 I am not speaking about all of you; I know whom I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the Scripture: ‘The one who shares My bread has lifted up his heel against Me.’

18 Jeg taler ikke om eder alle; jeg ved, hvilke jeg har udvalgt; men Skriften måtte opfyldes: Den, som æder Brødet med mig, har opløftet sin Hæl imod mig.

19 I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it comes to pass, you will believe that I am He.

19 Fra nu af siger jeg eder det, førend det sker, for at I, når det er sket, skulle tro, at det er mig.

20 Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever receives the one I send receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives the One who sent Me.”

20 Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, den, som modtager, hvem jeg sender, modtager mig; men den, som modtager mig, modtager ham, som har sendt mig.”

21 After Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit and testified, “Truly, truly, I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”

21 Da Jesus havde sagt dette, blev han heftigt bevæget i Ånden og vidnede og sagde: “Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, en af eder vil forråde mig.”

22 The disciples looked at one another, perplexed as to which of them He meant.

22 Da så Disciplene på hverandre, tvivlrådige om, hvem han talte om.

23 One of His disciples, the one whom Jesus loved, was reclining at His side.

23 Men der var en iblandt hans Disciple, som sad* til Bords ved Jesu Side, han, hvem Jesus elskede. { [*egl.: lå ved Jesu Bryst; man lå til Bords (se Luk. 7, 37) med sit Hoved ud for Sidemandens Bryst.] }

24 So Simon Peter motioned to him to ask Jesus which one He was talking about.

24 Til denne nikker da Simon Peter og siger til ham: “Sig, hvem det er, han taler om?”

25 Leaning back against Jesus, he asked, “Lord, who is it?”

25 Men denne bøjer sig op til Jesu Bryst og siger til ham: “Herre! hvem er det?”

26 Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I give this morsel after I have dipped it.” Then He dipped the morsel and gave it to Judas son of Simon Iscariot.

26 Jesus svarer: “Det er den, hvem jeg giver det Stykke Brød, som jeg dypper.” Så dypper han Stykket og tager og giver det til Judas, Simons Søn, Iskariot.

27 And when Judas had taken the morsel, Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to Judas, “What you are about to do, do quickly.”

27 Og efter at han havde fået Stykket, da gik Satan ind i ham. Så siger Jesus til ham: “Hvad du gør, gør det snart!”

28 But no one at the table knew why Jesus had said this to him.

28 Men ingen af dem, som sade til Bords, forstod, hvorfor han sagde ham dette.

29 Since Judas kept the money bag, some thought that Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the feast, or to give something to the poor.

29 Thi nogle mente, efterdi Judas havde Pungen, at Jesus sagde til ham: “Køb, hvad vi have nødig til Højtiden;” eller at han skulde give noget til de fattige.

30 As soon as he had received the morsel, Judas went out into the night.

30 Da han nu havde fået Stykket, gik han straks ud. Men det var Nat.

31 When Judas had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in Him.

31 Da han nu var gået ud, siger Jesus: “Nu er Menneskesønnen herliggjort, og Gud er herliggjort i ham.

32 If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify the Son in Himself—and will glorify Him at once.

32 Dersom Gud er herliggjort i ham, skal Gud også herliggøre ham i sig, og han skal snart herliggøre ham.

33 Little children, I am with you only a little while longer. You will look for Me, and as I said to the Jews, so now I say to you: ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’

33 Børnlille! endnu en liden Stund er jeg hos eder. I skulle lede efter mig, og ligesom jeg sagde til Jøderne: “Hvor jeg går hen, kunne I ikke komme,” siger jeg nu også til eder.

34 A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another.

34 Jeg giver eder en ny Befaling, at I skulle elske hverandre, at ligesom jeg elskede eder, skulle også I elske hverandre.

35 By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.”

35 Derpå skulle alle kende, at I ere mine Disciple, om I have indbyrdes Kærlighed.”

36 “Lord, where are You going?” Simon Peter asked. Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you cannot follow Me now, but you will follow later.”

36 Simon Peter siger til ham: “Herre! hvor går du hen?” Jesus svarede ham: “Hvor jeg går hen, kan du ikke nu følge mig, men siden skal du følge mig.”

37 “Lord,” said Peter, “why can’t I follow You now? I will lay down my life for You.”

37 Peter siger til ham: “Herre! hvorfor kan jeg ikke følge dig nu? Jeg vil sætte mit Liv til for dig?”

38 “Will you lay down your life for Me?” Jesus replied. “Truly, truly, I tell you, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.

38 Jesus svarer: “Vil du sætte dit Liv til for mig? Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg dig, Hanen skal ikke gale, førend du har fornægtet mig tre Gange.”
