Mark 7

1 Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus,

1 Og Farisæerne og nogle af de skriftkloge, som vare komne fra Jerusalem, samle sig om ham.

2 and they saw some of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed.

2 Og da de så nogle af hans Disciple holde Måltid med vanhellige, det er utoede, Hænder

3 Now in holding to the tradition of the elders, the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat until they wash their hands ceremonially.

3 thi Farisæerne og alle Jøderne spise ikke uden at to Hænderne omhyggeligt, idet de fastholde de gamles Overlevering;

4 And on returning from the market, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other traditions for them to observe, including the washing of cups, pitchers, kettles, and couches for dining.

4 og når de komme fra Torvet, spise de ikke uden først at tvætte sig; og der er mange andre Ting, som de have vedtaget at holde, Tvætninger af Bægere og Krus og Kobberkar og Bænke,

5 So the Pharisees and scribes questioned Jesus: “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders? Instead, they eat with defiled hands.”

5 så spurgte Farisæerne og de skriftkloge ham ad: “Hvorfor vandre dine Disciple ikke efter de gamles Overlevering, men holde Måltid med vanhellige Hænder?”

6 Jesus answered them, “Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.

6 Men han sagde til dem: “Rettelig profeterede Esajas om eder, I Hyklere! som der er skrevet: “Dette Folk ærer mig med Læberne, men deres Hjerte er langt borte fra mig.

7 They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’

7 Men de dyrke mig forgæves, idet de lære Lærdomme, som ere Menneskers Bud.”

8 You have disregarded the commandment of God to keep the tradition of men.”

8 I forlade Guds Bud og holde Menneskers Overlevering.”

9 He went on to say, “You neatly set aside the command of God to maintain your own tradition.

9 Og han sagde til dem: “Smukt ophæve I Guds Bud, for at I kunne holde eders Overlevering.

10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’

10 Thi Moses har sagt: “Ær din Fader og din Moder”; og: “Den, som hader Fader eller Moder, skal visselig dø”.

11 But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is Corban’ (that is, a gift devoted to God),

11 Men I sige: Når en Mand siger til sin Fader eller sin Moder: “Det, hvormed du skulde være hjulpen af mig, skal være Korban (det er: Tempelgave),”

12 he is no longer permitted to do anything for his father or mother.

12 da tilstede I ham ikke mere at gøre noget for sin Fader eller Moder,

13 Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”

13 idet I ophæve Guds Ord ved eders Overlevering, som I have overleveret; og mange lignende Ting gøre I.”

14 Once again Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “All of you, listen to Me and understand:

14 Og han kaldte atter Folkeskaren til sig og sagde til dem: “Hører mig alle, og forstår!

15 Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him; but the things that come out of a man, these are what defile him.”

15 Der er intet uden for Mennesket, som, når det går ind i ham, kan gøre ham uren; men hvad der går ud af Mennesket, det er det, som gør Mennesket urent.

16

16 [Dersom nogen har Øren at høre med, han høre!”]* { [*Verset mangler i flere af de ældste Håndskrifter.] }

17 After Jesus had left the crowd and gone into the house, His disciples inquired about the parable.

17 Og da han var gået ind i Huset og var borte fra Skaren, spurgte hans Disciple ham om Lignelsen.

18 “Are you still so dull?” He asked. “Do you not understand? Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him,

18 Og han siger til dem: “Ere også I så uforstandige? Forstå I ikke, at intet, som udefra går ind i Mennesket, kan gøre ham uren?

19 because it does not enter his heart, but it goes into the stomach and then is eliminated.” (Thus all foods are clean.)

19 Thi det går ikke ind i hans Hjerte men i hans Bug og går ud ad den naturlige Vej, og således renses al Maden.”

20 He continued: “What comes out of a man, that is what defiles him.

20 Men han sagde: “Det, som går ud af Mennesket, dette gør Mennesket urent.

21 For from within the hearts of men come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,

21 Thi indvortes fra, fra Menneskenes Hjerte, udgå de onde Tanker, Utugt, Tyveri, Mord,

22 greed, wickedness, deceit, debauchery, envy, slander, arrogance, and foolishness.

22 Hor, Havesyge, Ondskab, Svig, Uterlighed, et ondt Øje, Forhånelse, Hovmod, Fremfusenhed;

23 All these evils come from within, and these are what defile a man.”

23 alle disse onde Ting udgå indvortes fra og gøre Mennesket urent.”

24 Jesus left that place and went to the region of Tyre. Not wanting anyone to know He was there, He entered a house, but was unable to escape their notice.

24 Og han stod op og gik bort derfra til Tyrus's og Sidons Egne. Og han gik ind i et Hus og vilde ikke, at nogen skulde vide det. Og han kunde dog ikke være skjult;

25 Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she came and fell at His feet.

25 men en Kvinde, hvis lille Datter havde en uren Ånd, havde hørt om ham og kom straks ind og faldt ned for hans Fødder;

26 Now she was a Greek woman of Syrophoenician origin, and she kept asking Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.

26 (men Kvinden var græsk*, af Herkomst en Syrofønikerinde), og hun bad ham om, at han vilde uddrive den onde Ånd af hendes Datter. { [*d. e. hedensk.] }

27 “First let the children have their fill,” He said. “For it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

27 Og han sagde til hende: “Lad først Børnene mættes; thi det er ikke smukt at tage Børnenes Brød og kaste det for de små Hunde.”

28 “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”

28 Men hun svarede og siger til ham: “Jo, Herre! også de små Hunde æde under Bordet af Børnenes Smuler.”

29 Then Jesus told her, “Because of this answer, you may go. The demon has left your daughter.”

29 Og han sagde til hende: “For dette Ords Skyld gå bort; den onde Ånd er udfaren af din Datter.”

30 And she went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon was gone.

30 Og hun gik bort til sit Hus og fandt Barnet liggende på Sengen og den onde Ånd udfaren.

31 Then Jesus left the region of Tyre and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis.

31 Og da han gik bort igen fra Tyrus's Egne, kom han over Sidon midt igennem Dekapolis's Egne til Galilæas Sø.

32 Some people brought to Him a man who was deaf and hardly able to speak, and they begged Jesus to place His hand on him.

32 Og de bringe ham en døv, som også vanskeligt kunde tale, og bede ham om, at han vilde lægge Hånden på ham.

33 So Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd, and put His fingers into the man’s ears. Then He spit and touched the man’s tongue.

33 Og han tog ham afsides fra Skaren og lagde sine Fingre i hans Øren og spyttede og rørte ved hans Tunge

34 And looking up to heaven, He sighed deeply and said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means, “Be opened!”).

34 og så op til Himmelen, sukkede og sagde til ham: “Effata!” det er: lad dig op!

35 Immediately the man’s ears were opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak plainly.

35 Og hans Øren åbnedes, og straks løstes hans Tunges Bånd, og han talte ret.

36 Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone. But the more He ordered them, the more widely they proclaimed it.

36 Og han bød dem, at de ikke måtte sige det til nogen; men jo mere han bød dem, desto mere kundgjorde de det.

37 The people were utterly astonished and said, “He has done all things well! He makes even the deaf hear and the mute speak!”

37 Og de bleve over al Måde slagne af Forundring og sagde: “Han har gjort alle Ting vel; både gør han, at de døve høre, og at målløse tale.”
