Mark 2

1 A few days later Jesus went back to Capernaum. And when the people heard that He was home,

1 Og da han nogle Dage derefter atter gik ind i Kapernaum, spurgtes det, at han var hjemme.

2 they gathered in such large numbers that there was no more room, not even outside the door, as Jesus spoke the word to them.

2 Og der samledes mange, så at der ikke mere var Plads, end ikke foran Døren; og han talte Ordet til dem.

3 Then a paralytic was brought to Him, carried by four men.

3 Og de komme og bringe til ham en værkbruden, der blev båren af fire.

4 Since they were unable to get to Jesus through the crowd, they uncovered the roof above Him, made an opening, and lowered the paralytic on his mat.

4 Og da de ikke kunde komme nær til ham for Folkeskaren, toge de Taget af, hvor han var; og da de havde brudt Hul, firede de Sengen ned, hvorpå den værkbrudne lå.

5 When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”

5 Og da Jesus så deres Tro, siger han til den værkbrudne: “Søn! dine Synder ere forladte.”

6 But some of the scribes were sitting there and thinking in their hearts,

6 Men nogle af de skriftkloge sade der og tænkte i deres Hjerter:

7 “Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

7 “Hvorfor taler denne således? Han taler bespotteligt. Hvem kan forlade Synder uden én, nemlig Gud?”

8 At once Jesus knew in His spirit that they were thinking this way within themselves. “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?” He asked.

8 Og Jesus kendte straks i sin Ånd, at de tænkte således ved sig selv, og sagde til dem: “Hvorfor tænke I dette i eders Hjerter?

9 “Which is easier: to say to a paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, pick up your mat, and walk’?

9 Hvilket er lettest, at sige til den værkbrudne: Dine Synder ere forladte, eller at sige: Stå op, og tag din Seng, og gå?

10 But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...” He said to the paralytic,

10 Men for at I skulle vide, at Menneskesønnen har Magt på Jorden til at forlade Synder,” siger han til den værkbrudne:

11 “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

11 “Jeg siger dig: Stå op, tag din Seng, og gå til dit Hus!”

12 And immediately the man got up, picked up his mat, and walked out in front of them all. As a result, they were all astounded and glorified God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”

12 Og han stod op og tog straks Sengen og gik ud for alles Øjne, så de alle bleve forfærdede og priste Gud og sagde: “Aldrig have vi set noget sådant.”

13 Once again Jesus went out beside the sea. All the people came to Him, and He taught them there.

13 Og han gik atter ud langs Søen, og hele Skaren kom til ham, og han lærte dem.

14 As He was walking along, He saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him, and Levi got up and followed Him.

14 Og da han gik forbi, så han Levi, Alfæus' Søn sidde ved Toldboden, og han siger til ham: “Følg mig!” Og han stod op og fulgte ham.

15 While Jesus was dining at Levi’s house, many tax collectors and sinners were eating with Him and His disciples—for there were many who followed Him.

15 Og det skete, at han sad til Bords i hans Hus, og mange Toldere og Syndere sade til Bords med Jesus, og hans Disciple; thi de vare mange. Og der fulgte også

16 When the scribes who were Pharisees saw Jesus eating with these people, they asked His disciples, “Why does He eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

16 nogle skriftkloge af Farisæerne med ham, og da de så, at han spiste med Toldere og Syndere, sagde de til hans Disciple: “Han spiser og drikker med Toldere og Syndere!”

17 On hearing this, Jesus told them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

17 Og da Jesus hørte det, siger han til dem: “De raske trænge ikke til Læge, men de syge. Jeg er ikke kommen for at kalde retfærdige, men Syndere.”

18 Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were often fasting. So people came to Jesus and asked, “Why don’t Your disciples fast like John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees?”

18 Og Johannes' Disciple og Farisæerne fastede, og de komme og sige til ham: “Hvorfor faste Johannes's Disciple og Farisæernes Disciple, men dine Disciple faste ikke?”

19 Jesus replied, “How can the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them? As long as He is with them, they cannot fast.

19 Og Jesus sagde til dem: “Kunne Brudesvendene faste, medens Brudgommen er hos dem? Så længe de have Brudgommen hos sig kunne de ikke faste.

20 But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.

20 Men der skal komme Dage, da Brudgommen bliver tagen fra dem, da skulle de faste på den Dag.

21 No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. If he does, the new piece will pull away from the old, and a worse tear will result.

21 Ingen syr en Lap af uvalket Klæde på et gammelt Klædebon; ellers river den nye Lap på det gamle Klædebon dette itu, og der bliver et værre Hul.

22 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.”

22 Og ingen kommer ung Vin på gamle Læderflasker; ellers sprænger Vinen Læderflaskerne, og Vinen ødelægges såvel som Læderflaskerne; men kom ung Vin på nye Læderflasker!”

23 One Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain as they walked along.

23 Og det skete, at han vandrede på Sabbaten igennem en Sædemark, og hans Disciple begyndte, imedens de gik, at plukke Aks.

24 So the Pharisees said to Him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”

24 Og Farisæerne sagde til ham: “Se, hvorfor gøre de på Sabbaten, hvad der ikke er tilladt?”

25 Jesus replied, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need?

25 Og han siger til dem “Have I aldrig læst, hvad David gjorde, da han kom i Nød og blev hungrig, han selv og de, som vare med ham?

26 During the high priesthood of Abiathar, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which was lawful only for the priests. And he gave some to his companions as well.”

26 Hvorledes han gik ind i Guds Hus, da Abiathar var Ypperstepræst, og spiste Skuebrødene, som det ikke er nogen tilladt at spise uden Præsterne, og gav også dem, som vare med ham?”

27 Then Jesus declared, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

27 Og han sagde til dem: “Sabbaten blev til for Menneskets Skyld og ikke Mennesket for Sabbatens Skyld.

28 Therefore, the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”

28 Derfor er Menneskesønnen Herre også over Sabbaten.”
