¹Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, drew near.

¹Men de usyrede Brøds Højtid, som kaldes Påske, nærmede sig.

²The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.

²Og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge søgte, hvorledes de kunde slå ham ihjel; thi de frygtede for Folket.

³Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered with the twelve.

³Men Satan gik ind i Judas, som kaldes Iskariot og var en af de tolv.

⁴He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them.

⁴Og han gik hen og talte med Ypperstepræsterne og Høvedsmændene om, hvorledes han vilde forråde ham til dem.

⁵They were glad, and agreed to give him money.

⁵Og de bleve glade og lovede at give ham Penge.

⁶He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.

⁶Og han tilsagde det; og han søgte Lejlighed til at forråde ham til dem uden Opløb.

⁷The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed.

⁷Men de usyrede Brøds Dag kom, på hvilken man skulde slagte Påskelammet.

⁸He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”

⁸Og han udsendte Peter og Johannes og sagde: "Går hen og bereder os Påskelammet, at vi kunne spise det."

⁹They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare?”

⁹Men de sagde til ham: "Hvor vil du, at vi skulle berede det?"

¹⁰He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters.

¹⁰Men han sagde til dem: "Se, når I ere komne ind i Staden, skal der møde eder en Mand, som bærer en Vandkrukke; følger ham til Huset, hvor han går ind,

¹¹ Tell the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’

¹¹og I skulle sige til Husbonden i Huset: Mesteren siger: Hvor er det Herberge, hvor jeg kan spise Påskelammet med mine Disciple?

¹² He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there.”

¹²Og han skal vise eder en stor Sal opdækket; der skulle I berede det."

¹³They went, found things as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

¹³Og de gik hen og fandt det således, som han havde sagt dem; og de beredte Påskelammet.

¹⁴When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve apostles.

¹⁴Og da Timen kom, satte han sig til Bords, og Apostlene med ham.

¹⁵He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,

¹⁵Og han sagde til dem: "Jeg har hjerteligt længtes efter at spise dette Påskelam med eder, førend jeg lider.

¹⁶ for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.”

¹⁶Thi jeg siger eder, at jeg skal ingen Sinde mere spise det, førend det bliver fuldkommet i Guds Rige."

¹⁷He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this, and share it among yourselves,

¹⁷Og han tog en Kalk, takkede og sagde: "Tager dette, og deler det imellem eder!

¹⁸ for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until the Kingdom of God comes.”

¹⁸Thi jeg siger eder, at fra nu af skal jeg ikke drikke af Vintræets Frugt, førend Guds Rige kommer."

¹⁹He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.”

¹⁹Og han tog Brød, takkede og brød det og gav dem det og sagde: "Dette er mit Legeme, det, som gives for eder; gører dette til min Ihukommelse!"

²⁰Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

²⁰Ligeså tog han også Kalken efter Aftensmåltidet og sagde: "Denne Kalk er den nye Pagt i mit Blod, det, som udgydes for eder.

²¹ But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.

²¹Men se, hans Hånd, som forråder mig, er her på Bordet hos mig.

²² The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”

²²Thi Menneskesønnen går bort, som det er beskikket; dog ve det Menneske, ved hvem han bliver forrådt!"

²³They began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.

²³Og de begyndte at spørge hverandre indbyrdes om, hvem af dem det dog kunde være, som skulde gøre dette.

²⁴There arose also a contention among them, which of them was considered to be greatest.

²⁴Men der opstod også en Trætte iblandt dem om, hvem at dem der måtte synes at være den største.

²⁵He said to them, “The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’

²⁵Men han sagde til dem: "Folkenes Konger herske over dem, og de, som bruge Myndighed over dem, kaldes deres Velgørere.

²⁶ But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.

²⁶I derimod ikke således; men den ældste iblandt eder blive som den yngste, og Føreren som den, der tjener.

²⁷ For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am in the midst of you as one who serves.

²⁷Thi hvem er størst: den, som sidder til Bords? eller den, som tjener? Mon ikke den, som sidder til Bords? Men jeg er iblandt eder som den, der tjener.

²⁸ But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.

²⁸Men I ere de, som have holdt ud med mig i mine Fristelser.

²⁹ I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me,

²⁹Og ligesom min Fader har tildelt mig Kongedømme, tildeler jeg eder

³⁰ that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

³⁰at skulle spise og drikke ved mit Bord i mit Rige og sidde på Troner og dømme Israels tolv Stammer."

³¹The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat,

³¹Men Herren sagde: "Simon, Simon! se, Satan begærede eder for at sigte eder som Hvede.

³² but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers The word for “brothers” here may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” .”

³²Men jeg bad for dig, at din Tro ikke skal svigte; og når du engang omvender dig, da styrk dine Brødre!"

³³He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”

³³Men han sagde til ham: "Herre! jeg er rede til at gå med dig både i Fængsel og i Døden."

³⁴He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁴Men han sagde: "Peter! jeg siger dig: Hanen skal ikke gale i Dag, førend du tre Gange har nægtet, at du kender mig."

³⁵He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, and wallet, and shoes, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁵Og han sagde til dem: "Da jeg udsendte eder uden Pung og Taske og Sko, manglede I da noget?" Og de sagde: "Intet."

³⁶Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁶Men han sagde til dem: "Men nu, den, som har en Pung, tage den med, ligeså også en Taske; og den, som ikke har noget Sværd, sælge sin Kappe og købe et!

³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ Isaiah 53:12 For that which concerns me has an end.”

³⁷Thi jeg siger eder: Det, som er skrevet, bør opfyldes på mig, dette: "Og han blev regnet iblandt Overtrædere;" thi også med mig har det en Ende."

³⁸They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”

³⁸Men de sagde: "Herre! se, her er to Sværd." Men han sagde til dem: "Det er nok."

³⁹He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

³⁹Og han gik ud og gik efter sin Sædvane til Oliebjerget; men også Disciplene fulgte ham.

⁴⁰When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

⁴⁰Men da han kom til Stedet, sagde han til dem: "Beder om ikke at falde i Fristelse."

⁴¹He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴¹Og han rev sig løs fra dem, så meget som et Stenkast, og faldt på Knæ, bad og sagde:

⁴²saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴²"Fader, vilde du dog tage denne Kalk fra mig! dog ske ikke min Villie, men din!"

⁴³An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴³Men en Engel fra Himmelen viste sig for ham og styrkede ham.

⁴⁴Being in agony he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁴Og da han var i Dødsangst, bad han heftigere; men hans Sved blev som Blodsdråber, der faldt ned på Jorden.

⁴⁵When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁵Og da han stod op fra Bønnen og kom til Disciplene, fandt han dem sovende af Bedrøvelse.

⁴⁶and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁶Og han sagde til dem: "Hvorfor sove I? Står op og beder, for at I ikke skulle falde i Fristelse."

⁴⁷While he was still speaking, behold, a multitude, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁷Medens han endnu talte, se, da kom der en Skare; og han, som hed Judas, en af de tolv, gik foran dem og nærmede sig til Jesus for at kysse ham.

⁴⁸But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁸Men Jesus sagde til ham: "Judas! forråder du Menneskesønnen med et Kys?"

⁴⁹When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

⁴⁹Men da de,som vare omkring ham, så, hvad der vilde ske, sagde de: "Herre! skulle vi slå til med Sværd?"

⁵⁰A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

⁵⁰Og en af dem slog Ypperstepræstens Tjener og afhuggede hans højre Øre.

⁵¹But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this” —and he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵¹Men Jesus tog til Orde og sagde: "Lad dem gøre også dette!" Og han rørte ved hans Øre og lægte ham.

⁵²Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵²Men Jesus sagde til Ypperstepræsterne og Høvedsmændene for Helligdommen og de ældste, som vare komne til ham: "I ere gåede ud som imod en Røver med Sværd og Knipler.

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵³Da jeg var daglig hos eder i Helligdommen, udrakte I ikke Hænderne imod mig; men dette er eders Time og Mørkets Magt."

⁵⁴They seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance.

⁵⁴Og de grebe ham og førte ham bort og bragte ham ind i Ypperstepræstens Hus; men Peter fulgte efter i Frastand.

⁵⁵When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard, and had sat down together, Peter sat among them.

⁵⁵Og de tændte en Ild midt i Gården og satte sig sammen, og Peter sad midt iblandt dem.

⁵⁶A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁶Men en Pige så ham sidde i Lysskæret og stirrede på ham og sagde: "Også denne var med ham."

⁵⁷He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

⁵⁷Men han fornægtede ham og sagde: "Jeg kender ham ikke. Kvinde!"

⁵⁸After a little while someone else saw him, and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁸Og lidt derefter så en anden ham og sagde: "Også du er en af dem." Men Peter sagde: "Menneske! det er jeg ikke."

⁵⁹After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

⁵⁹Og omtrent en Time derefter forsikrede en anden det og sagde: "I Sandhed, også denne var med ham; han er jo også en Galilæer."

⁶⁰But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶⁰Men Peter sagde: "Menneske! jeg forstår ikke, hvad du siger." Og straks, medens han endnu talte. galede Hanen.

⁶¹The Lord turned, and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

⁶¹Og Herren vendte sig og så på Peter; og Peter kom Herrens Ord i Hu, hvorledes han havde sagt til ham: "Førend Hanen galer i Dag, skal du fornægte mig tre Gange."

⁶²He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶²Og han gik udenfor og græd bitterligt.

⁶³The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

⁶³Og de Mænd, som holdt Jesus, spottede ham og sloge ham;

⁶⁴Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁴og de kastede et Klæde over ham og spurgte ham og sagde: "Profeter! hvem var det, som slog dig?"

⁶⁵They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁵Og mange andre Ting sagde de spottende til ham.

⁶⁶As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁶Og da det blev Dag, samlede Folkets Ældste sig og Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge, og de førte ham hen for deres Råd

⁶⁷“If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁷og sagde: "Er du Kristus, da sig os det!" Men han sagde til dem: "Siger jeg eder det, tro I det ikke.

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁸Og om jeg spørger, svare I mig ikke, ej heller løslade I mig.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁶⁹Men fra nu af skal Menneskesønnen sidde ved Guds Krafts højre Hånd."

⁷⁰They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷⁰Men de sagde alle: "Er du da Guds Søn?" Og han sagde til dem: "I sige det; jeg er det."

⁷¹They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

⁷¹Men de sagde: "Hvad have vi længere Vidnesbyrd nødig? vi have jo selv hørt det af hans Mund!"
