Da han kom ned fra fjellet, fulgte en stor folkemengde etter ham.

And when he had come down from the mountain, great numbers of people came after him.

Og en spedalsk kom og tilba ham, og sa: Herre, om du vil, kan du gjøre meg ren.

And a leper came and gave him worship, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean.

Han rakte ut hånden, rørte ved ham og sa: Jeg vil, bli ren! Og straks ble han renset for sin spedalskhet.

And he put his hand on him, saying, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away he was made clean.

Og Jesus sa til ham: Se til at du ikke sier dette til noen, men gå og vis deg for presten, og bær den offergaven Moses har bestemt, som et vitnesbyrd for dem.

And Jesus said to him, See that you say nothing about this to anyone; but go and let the priest see you and make the offering which was ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.

Da Jesus kom inn i Kapernaum, kom en høvedsmann til ham med en bønn.

And when Jesus was come into Capernaum, a certain captain came to him with a request,

Han sa: Herre, min tjener ligger lammet hjemme og har store smerter.

Saying, Lord, my servant is ill in bed at the house, with no power in his body, and in great pain.

Han sa til ham: Jeg skal komme og helbrede ham.

And he said to him, I will come and make him well.

Men høvedsmannen svarte: Herre, jeg er ikke verdig at du kommer inn under mitt tak, men si bare et ord, så blir min tjener helbredet.

And the captain in answer said, Lord, I am not good enough for you to come under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be made well.

For jeg er selv en mann under autoritet, og har soldater under meg. Jeg sier til denne: Gå! og han går; og til en annen: Kom! og han kommer; og til min tjener: Gjør dette! og han gjør det.

Because I myself am a man under authority, having under me fighting men; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.

Da Jesus hørte dette, undret han seg og sa til dem som fulgte etter: Sannelig, jeg sier dere: Ikke hos noen i Israel har jeg funnet så stor tro.

And when these words came to the ears of Jesus he was surprised, and said to those who came after him, Truly I say to you, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.

Og jeg sier dere: Mange skal komme fra øst og vest og sitte til bords med Abraham, Isak og Jakob i himmelriket,

And I say to you that numbers will come from the east and the west, and will take their seats with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven:

men rikets barn skal kastes ut i mørket utenfor, der skal det være gråt og tanners gnissel.

But the sons of the kingdom will be put out into the dark, and there will be weeping and cries of pain.

Jesus sa til høvedsmannen: Gå hjem, la det bli som du trodde. Og i samme øyeblikk ble tjeneren helbredet.

And Jesus said to the captain, Go in peace; as your faith is, so let it be done to you. And the servant was made well in that hour.

Da Jesus kom inn i Peters hus, så han at svigermoren hans lå syk med feber.

And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother in bed, very ill.

Han rørte ved hånden hennes, og feberen forlot henne, og hun sto opp og stelte for ham.

And he put his hand on hers and the disease went from her, and she got up and took care of his needs.

Da det ble kveld, brakte de til ham mange besatte. Han drev åndene ut med et ord og helbredet alle som var syke,

And in the evening, they took to him a number of people who had evil spirits; and he sent the spirits out of them with a word, and made well all who were ill;

slik at det ble oppfylt som var sagt ved profeten Jesaja: Han tok på seg våre plager og bar våre sykdommer.

So that the word of Isaiah the prophet might come true: He himself took our pains and our diseases.

Da Jesus så store folkemasser omkring seg, befalte han at de skulle dra til den andre siden.

Now when Jesus saw a great mass of people about him, he gave an order to go to the other side.

Da kom en skriftlærd og sa til ham: Mester, jeg vil følge deg hvor du enn går.

And there came a scribe and said to him, Master, I will come after you wherever you go.

Jesus sa til ham: Reven har hull, og himmelens fugler har reir, men Menneskesønnen har ikke noe sted å hvile sitt hode.

And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of heaven have a resting-place; but the Son of man has nowhere to put his head.

En annen av hans disipler sa til ham: Herre, gi meg lov til først å gå bort og begrave min far.

And another of the disciples said to him, Lord, let me first go and give the last honours to my father.

Men Jesus sa til ham: Følg meg, og la de døde begrave sine døde.

But Jesus said to him, Come after me; and let the dead take care of their dead.

Da han steg i båten, fulgte disiplene ham.

And when he had got into a boat, his disciples went after him.

Og da ble det en voldsom storm på sjøen, så båten nesten gikk under; men han sov.

And there came up a great storm in the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves: but he was sleeping.

De kom til ham og vekket ham og sa: Herre, frels, vi går under.

And they came to him, and, awaking him, said, Help, Lord; destruction is near.

Han sa til dem: Hvorfor er dere redde, dere lite troende? Så reiste han seg opp og truet vinden og sjøen, og det ble fullstendig stille.

And he said to them, Why are you full of fear, O you of little faith? Then he got up and gave orders to the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

Men mennene undret seg og sa: Hva slags mann er dette, som til og med vinden og sjøen adlyder?

And the men were full of wonder, saying, What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea do his orders?

Da han kom til den andre siden, til gadarenernes land, møtte to besatte ham som kom ut fra gravene. De var så voldelige at ingen kunne gå den veien.

And when he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, there came out to him from the place of the dead, two who had evil spirits, so violent that no man was able to go that way.

De ropte høyt og sa: Hva vil du oss, du Guds Sønn? Er du kommet hit for å pine oss før tiden?

And they gave a loud cry, saying, What have we to do with you, you Son of God? Have you come here to give us punishment before the time?

Et stykke fra dem gikk en stor flokk griser og beitet.

Now there was, some distance away, a great herd of pigs taking their food.

De onde åndene ba ham innstendig: Om du driver oss ut, send oss inn i griseflokken.

And the evil spirits made strong prayers to him, saying, If you send us out, let us go into the herd of pigs.

Han sa til dem: Gå. Og de for ut av mennene og inn i grisene. Hele flokken satte av sted over den bratte skrenten ut i sjøen og omkom i vannet.

And he said to them, Go. And they came out, and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea and came to their end in the water.

Hyrdene flyktet og gikk inn til byen og fortalte alt, også om de besatte.

And their keepers went in flight to the town and gave an account of everything, and of the men who had the evil spirits.

Hele byen gikk derfor ut for å møte Jesus, og da de så ham, ba de ham om å dra bort fra deres område.

And all the town came out to Jesus; and seeing him they made request that he would go away from their part of the country.
