21. Men han stod op, og tog Barnet og dets Moder, og kom til Isracts Land.

22. Men der han hørte, at Archelaus regjerede i Judœa, i sin Faders Herodis Sted, frygtede han for at komme derhen; men han blev advaret af Gud i en Drøm, og veeg hen til Galilæas Egne.

23. Og han fom, og boede i en Stad, som kaldes Nazareth, at det skulde fuldkommes, som sagt er ved Propheterne, at han skal kaldes Nazaræus.

3. Thi han er den, om hvilken Propheten Esaias haver talet, som siger: det er hans Røst, som_raaber i Ørkenen: bereder HErrens Vei, gjører hans Stier rette.

4. Men Johannes, han havde sit Klædebon af Kameelhaar, og et Lœderbelt: om sin Lend; men hans Mad var Græshopper og vild Honning.

5. Da udgif Jerusalem til ham, og det ganske Judæa, og alt Landet omFring Jordan.

6. Og de døbtes af ham i Jordan, de, som bekjendte deres Shuder.

7. Men der han faae mange Pharifæer og Sadducæer komme til sin Daab, sagde han til dem: J Øgleunger! hvo viste eder at flhe fra den tilkommende Brede?

21 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

22 But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:

23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.

CHAPTER III.

[N those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea,

2 And saying, Repent ye; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. 3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. 4 And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.

5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judea, and all the region round about Jordan,

6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

7 ¶ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:

9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: there

Træ, som ikke bær god Frugt, afhugges, og kastes i Jlden.

11. Jeg døber eder vel med Vand til Omvendelse; men den, som kommer efter mig, er stærkere end jeg, hvis Stoe jeg ifte er værdig at bære; han skal døbe eder med den Hellig Aand og Jld.

12. Hans Kasteskovl er i hans Haand, og han skal igjennemrense sin Loe, og sanke sin Hvede i Laden; men Avnerne skal han opbrænde med uslukkelig Jld.

13. Da fom JEsus fra Galilæa til Jordan til Johannes, for at døbes af ham.

14. Men Johannes formeente ham det meget, og sagde: jeg haver behov at debes af dig, og du kommer til mig? 15. Men JEsus svarede, og sagde til ham: tilsted det nu; thi saaledes bør det os at fuldkomme al Retfærdighed. Da tilstedte han ham.

fore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: 12 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

14 But John forbade him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?

15 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water and lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him :

17 And lo, a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

5 Then the devil taketh him up

6. Er du Guds Søn, da kast dig selv her neɔ; thi der er skrevet: han skal give fine Engle Befaling om dig, og de skulle bære dig paa Hænderne, at du ikke skal støde din Fod paa nogen Steen.

7. Da sagde JEsus til ham: der er atter skrevet: du skal ikke friste HErren din Gud.

8. Atter tog Djævelen ham med sig op paa et saare hoit Bjerg, og viste ham alle Verdens Riger og deres Herlighed, og sagde til ham:

9. Alt dette vil jeg give dig, om du vil falde ned, og tilbede mig.

10. Da sagde JEsus til ham: viig bort, Satan! thi der er skrevet: du skal tilbede HErren din Gud, og tjene ham alene.

11. Da forlod Djævelen ham; og fee, Englene gif til ham, og tjente ham.

12 Men der JEsus hørte, at Johannes var overantvordet, veeg han hen til Galilæa.

13. Og der han havde forladt Nazareth, kom han, og boede i Capernaum, det, som ligger ved Søen paa Sebulons og Naphthalis Grændser,

14. at det skulde fuldkommes, som er fagt ved Propheten Esaias, som siger:

15. Sebulons Land og Naphthalis Land ved Havets Vei paa denne Side Jordan, Hedningernes Galilæa:

6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down, for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

11 Then the devil leaveth him, and behold, angels came and min

istered unto him.

12 Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;

13 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea-coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim;

14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:

17. Fra den Tid begyndte JEsus at prædike, og sige: omvender eder; thi Himmeriges Rige er kommet nær.

18. Men der JEsus vandrede ved

which sat in the region and shadow of death, light is sprung up.

17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. 18 And Jesus, walking by the

dre, Simon, som kaldes Petrus, og Andreas, hans Broder, som kastede Garn i Søen — thi de vare Fiskere. — 19. Og han sagde til dem: følger efter mig, faa vil jeg gjøre eder til Menneske-Fisfere.

20. Men de forlode stray Garnene og fulgte ham.

21. Og der han gik frem derfra, faae han to andre Brødre, Jakobus, Zebedæi (Son), og Johannes, hans Broder, i Stibet med deres Fader Zebedæus, at de bødte deres Garn; og han faldte dem.

22. Men de forlode stray Skibet og deres Fader, og fulgte ham.

23. Og JEsus gif omkring i gansfe Galilæa, lærte i deres Synagoger, og prædikede Rigets Evangelium, og helbredede al Sygdom og al Sfrobelighed iblandt Folket.

24. Og hans Rygte udkom over al Syria, og de førte til ham alle dem, som havde Oudt, som med adskillige Sygdomme og Piner vare beheftede, baade de Besatte, og Maanesyge, og Værfbrudne; og han helbredede dem.

19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets: and he called them.

22 And they immediately left the ship, and their father, and follow

ed him.

23 ¶ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness, and all manner of disease among the people. 24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatic, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them. 25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judea, and from beyond Jordan

15. Man tænder heller ikke et Lys, og sætter det under en Stjeppe, men paa en Lysestage; saa skinner det for alle dem, som ere i huset.

16. Lader saa eders Lys skinne for Menneskene, at de see eders gode Gjerninger, og ære eders Fader, som er i Himlene.

17. I skulle ikke mene, at jeg er kommen for at afskaffe Loven eller Propheterne; jeg er iffe fommen for at opløse, men at fuldkomme.

18. Thi sandelig siger jeg eoer: indtil Himmelen og Jorden forgoae, ffat iffe end een den mindste Bogstav eller een Toddel forgaae af Loven, førend de Ting sfee allesammen.

19. Derfor, hvo, som bryder eet af disse mindste Bud, og lærer Menuestene saaledes, han skal faldes den mindste i Himmeriges Nige; men hvo,

6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness · for they shall be filled.

7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8 Blessed are the pure in heart : for they shall see God.

9 Blessed are the peace-makers: for they shall be called the children of God.

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of hea

ven.

11 Blessed are ye when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick: and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in
