Matthew 16

1 Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came and tested Jesus by asking Him to show them a sign from heaven.

1 Og Farisæerne og Saddukæerne kom hen og fristede ham og begærede, at han vilde vise dem et Tegn fra Himmelen.

2 But He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘The weather will be fair, for the sky is red,’

2 Men han svarede og sagde til dem: “Om Aftenen sige I: Det bliver en skøn Dag, thi Himmelen er rød;

3 and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but not the signs of the times.

3 og om Morgenen: Det bliver Storm i Dag, thi Himmelen er rød og mørk. Om Himmelens Udseende vide I at dømme, men om Tidernes Tegn kunne I det, ikke.

4 A wicked and adulterous generation demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” Then He left them and went away.

4 En ond og utro Slægt forlanger Tegn; men der skal intet Tegn gives den uden Jonas's Tegn.” Og han forlod dem og gik bort.

5 When they crossed to the other side, the disciples forgot to take bread.

5 Og da hans Disciple kom over til hin Side, havde de glemt at tage Brød med.

6 “Watch out!” Jesus told them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

6 Og Jesus sagde til dem: “Ser til, og tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Surdejg!”

7 They discussed this among themselves and concluded, “It is because we did not bring any bread.”

7 Men de tænkte ved sig selv og sagde: “Det er, fordi vi ikke toge Brød med.”

8 Aware of their conversation, Jesus said, “You of little faith, why are you debating among yourselves about having no bread?

8 Men da Jesus mærkede dette, sagde han: “I lidettroende! hvorfor tænke I ved eder selv på, at I ikke have taget Brød med?

9 Do you still not understand? Do you not remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?

9 Forstå I ikke endnu? Komme I heller ikke i Hu de fem Brød til de fem Tusinde, og hvor mange Kurve I da toge op?

10 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?

10 Ikke heller de syv Brød til de fire Tusinde, og hvor mange Kurve I da toge op?

11 How do you not understand that I was not telling you about bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

11 Hvorledes forstå I da ikke, at det ej var om Brød, jeg sagde det til eder? Men tager eder i Vare for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Surdejg.”

12 Then they understood that He was not telling them to beware of the leaven used in bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

12 Da forstode de, at han havde ikke sagt, at de skulde tage sig i Vare for Surdejgen i Brød, men for Farisæernes og Saddukæernes Lære.

13 When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”

13 Men da Jesus var kommen til Egnen ved Kæsarea Filippi, spurgte han sine Disciple og sagde: “Hvem sige Folk, at Menneskesønnen er?”

14 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

14 Men de sagde: “Nogle sige Johannes Døberen; andre Elias; andre Jeremias eller en af Profeterne.”

15 “But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?”

15 Han siger til dem: “Men I, hvem sige I, at jeg er?”

16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

16 Da svarede Simon Peter og sagde: “Du er Kristus, den levende Guds Søn.”

17 Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by My Father in heaven.

17 Og Jesus svarede og sagde til ham: “Salig er du, Simon Jonas's Søn! thi Kød og Blod har ikke åbenbaret dig det, men min Fader, som er i Himlene.

18 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.

18 Så siger jeg også dig, at du er Petrus, og på denne Klippe vil jeg bygge min Menighed, og Dødsrigets Porte skulle ikke få Overhånd over den.

19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

19 Og jeg vil give dig Himmeriges Riges Nøgler, og hvad du binder på Jorden, det skal være bundet i Himlene, og hvad du løser på Jorden, det skal være løst i Himlene.”

20 Then He admonished the disciples not to tell anyone that He was the Christ.

20 Da bød han sine Disciple, at de måtte ikke sige til nogen at han var Kristus.

21 From that time on Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.

21 Fra den Tid begyndte Jesus at give sine Disciple til Kende, at han skulde gå til Jerusalem og lide meget af de Ældste og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge og ihjelslås og oprejses på den tredje Dag.

22 Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him. “Far be it from You, Lord!” he said. “This shall never happen to You!”

22 Og Peter tog ham til Side, begyndte at sætte ham i Rette og sagde: “Gud bevare dig, Herre; dette skal ingenlunde ske dig!”

23 But Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me. For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”

23 Men han vendte sig og sagde til Peter: “Vig bag mig, Satan! du er mig en Forargelse; thi du sanser ikke, hvad Guds er, men hvad Menneskers er.”

24 Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.

24 Da sagde Jesus til sine Disciple: “Vil nogen komme efter mig, han fornægte sig selv og tage sit Kors op og følge mig!

25 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

25 Thi den, som vil frelse sit Liv, skal miste det; men den, som mister sit Liv for min Skyld, skal bjærge det.

26 What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?

26 Thi hvad gavner det et Menneske, om han vinder den hele Verden, men må bøde med sin Sjæl? Eller hvad kan et Menneske give til Vederlag for sin Sjæl?

27 For the Son of Man will come in His Father’s glory with His angels, and then He will repay each one according to what he has done.

27 Thi Menneskesønnen skal komme i sin Faders Herlighed med sine Engle; og da skal han betale enhver efter hans Gerning.

28 Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”

28 Sandelig siger jeg eder, der er nogle af dem, som stå her, der ingenlunde skulle smage Døden, førend de se Menneskesønnen komme i sit Rige.”
