Lukas 22

1 Men de usyrede Brøds Høitid, som kaldes Paaske, nærmede sig.2 Og de Ypperstepræster og Skriftkloge søgte, hvorledes de kunde ihjelslaae ham; thi de frygtede for Folket.3 Men Satanas foer i Judas med Tilnavn Ischariotes, som var en af de Tolv.4 Og han gik hen og talede med de Ypperstepræster og Høvedsmændene, hvorledes han vilde forraade ham til dem.5 Og de bleve glade og lovede at give ham Penge.6 Og han tilsagde det; og han søgte beleilig Tid til at forraade ham til dem uden Opløb.7 Men de usyrede Brøds Dag kom, paa hvilken man burde slagte Paaskelammet.8 Og han sendte Peter og Johannes og sagde: gaaer hen og bereder os Paaskelammet, at vi kunne æde det.9 Men de sagde til ham: hvor vil du, at vi skulle berede det?10 Men han sagde til dem: see, naar I komme ind i Staden, skal et Menneske møde Eder, som bærer en Vandkrukke; følger ham i Huset, hvor han gaaer ind,11 og siger til huusbonden i Huset: Mesteren lader dig sige: hvor er det Herberge, der jeg kan æde Paaskelammet med mine Disciple?12 Og han skal vise Eder en stor Sal tillavet; der bereder det.13 Men de gik hen og fandt det, ligesom han havde sagt dem, og de beredte Paaskelammet.14 Og der Timen kom, satte han sig tilbords, og de tolv Apostler med ham.15 Og han sagde til dem: jeg har hjerteligen længtes efter at æde dette Paaskelam med Eder, forend jeg lider.16 Thi jeg siger Eder, at jeg skal indenlunde mere æde af det, førend det bliver fuldkommet i Guds Rige.17 Og han tog Kalken, takkede og sagde: tager dette, og deler det imellem Eder.18 Thi jeg siger Eder, at jeg skal ikke drikke af Viintræets Frugt, forend Guds Rige kommer.19 Og han tog Brødet, takkede og brød det og gav dem det og sagde: dette er mit Legeme, hvilket gives for Eder; dette gjører til min Ihukommelse.20 Ligesaa tog han og Kalken, efterat de havde holdt nadvere, og sagde: denne Kalk er det Nye Testament i mit Blod, hvilket udgydes for Eder.21 Dog see, hans Haand, som mig forraader, er over Bordet med mig.22 Og Menneskens Søn gaaer vel hen, som det er beskikket; dog vee det Menneske, ved hvem han bliver forraadt!23 Og de begyndte at bespørge sig indbyrdes om, hvo af dem det dog maatte være, som dette skulde gjøre?24 Der var og en Trætte iblandt dem derom, hvo af dem skulde holdes for at være den Største?25 Men han sagde til dem: Folkenes Konger herske over dem, og de, som have Magt over dem, kaldes naadige Herrer.26 I derimod ikke saaledes; men den Største ibaldt Eder være som den Yngste, og den Øverste, som den, der tjener.27 Thi hvilken er størst: den, som sidder tilbords? eller den, som tjener? Mon ikke den, som sidder tilbords? Men jeg er i blandt Eder som den, der tjener? Mon ikke den, som sidder tilbords? Men jeg er iblandt Eder som den, der tjener.28 Men I ere de, som ere blevne varagtige hos mig i mine Fristelser.29 Og jeg bskikker Eder Riget, ligesom min Fader beskikkede mig det,30 at I skulle æde og drikke ved mit Bord i mit Rige og sidde paa Throner og dømme de tolv Israels Stammer.31 Men Herren sagde: Simon, Simon! see, Satanas begjerede Eder, at sigte Eder som Hvede.32 Men jeg bad for dig, at din Tro skal ikke aflade; og naar du engang omvender dig, da styrk dine Brødre.33 Men han sagde til ham: Herre! jeg er rede at gaae med dig, baade i Fængsel og i Døden.34 Men han sagde: Peter! jeg siger dig: Hanen skal ikke gale i Dag, førend du tre Gange har nægtet, at du kjender mig.35 Og han sagde til dem; der jeg udsendte Eder uden pung og Taske og Skoe, fattedes Eder Noget? Men de sagde: Intet.36 Da sagde han til dem: men nu, hvo som har en Pung, tage den, ligesaa og en Taske; og hvo som ikke har Sværd, sælge sit Klædebon, og kjøbe et.37 Thi jeg siger Eder: det bør endnu fuldkommes paa mig, hvad skrevet er: han er og regnet iblandt Overtrædere; thi hvad der er skrevet om mig, har Ende.38 Men de sagde: Herre! see, her ere to Sværd. Men han sagde til dem: det er nok.39 Og han gik ud og gik efter Sædvane til Oliebjerget; men hans Disciple fulgte ham ogsaa.40 Men der han kom til Stedet, sagde han til dem: beder, at I ikke skulle falde i Fristelse.41 Og han sled sig fra dem omtrent et Steenkast og faldt paa Knæ, og bad og sagde:42 Fader, vilde du tage denne kalk, fra mig! dog skee ikke mine Villie, men din!43 Men en Engel af Himmelen aabenbaredes for ham og styrkede ham.44 Og der han var i Dødsangest, bad han heftigere; men hans Sved blev som Blodsdraaber, der falde ned paa Jorden.45 Og der han stod op fra Bønnen og kom til sine Disciple, fandt han dem sovende af Bedrøvelse.46 Og han sagde til dem: hvi sove I? Staaer op og beder, at I ikke skulle falde i Fristelse.47 Men der han endnu talede, see, da kom Skaren; og een af de Tolv, ved Navn Judas, gik foran dem og nærmede sig til Jesus for at kysse ham.48 Men Jesus sagde til ham: Judas! forraader du Menneskens Søn med et Kys?49 Men der de, som vare omkring ham, saae, hvad der vilde skee, sagde de til ham: Herre! skulle vi slaae til med Sværd?50 Og een af dem slog den Ypperstepræstes Tjener og afhuggede hans høire Øre.51 Men Jesus svarede og sagde: tillader dem saavidt! Og han rørte ved hans Øre og lægte ham.52 Men Jesus sagde til de Ypperstepræster og Høvedsmændene for Templet og de Ældste, som vare komne til ham: I ere udgangne som mod en Røver med Sværd og Stænger.53 Der jeg var dagligen hos Eder i Templet, udrakte I ikke Hænder imod mig; men denne er Eders Time og Mørkets Magt.54 Men de grebe ham og førte ham bort og bragte ham ind i den Ypperstepræstes Huus; men Peter fulgte langt fra efter.55 Men de tændte en Ild midt i Paladset og satte sig tilsammen, og Peter sad midt iblandt dem.56 Men en Pige saae ham sidde ved Ilden og stirrede paa ham og sagde: denne var og med ham.57 Men han fornægtede ham og sagde: Kvinde! jeg kjender ham ikke.58 Og lidet derefter saae en Anden ham og sagde: du er og een af dem; men Peter sagde: Menneske! jeg er det ikke.59 Og henved en Time derefter bekræftede en Anden hardt og sagde: i Sandhed, denne var og med ham; thi han er og en Galilæer.60 Men Peter sagde: Menneske! jeg veed ikke, hvad du siger. Og strax, der han endnu talede, goel Hanen.61 Og Herren vendte sig og saae paa Peter; og Peter kom Herrens Ord ihu, hvorledes hanhavde sagt til ham: førend Hanen galer, skal du fornægte mig tre Gange.62 Og Peter gik udenfor og græd bitterligen.63 Og de Mænd, som holdt Jesus, bespottede ham og sloge ham.64 Og de kastede et Klæde over ham og sloge ham i Ansigtet og spurgte ham og sagde: spaa, hvo er den, som dig slog?65 Og mange andre Bespottelser sagde de imod ham.66 Og der det blev Dag, forsamlede Folkets Ældste sig og de Ypperstepræster og Skriftkloge og førte ham op for deres Raad,67 og sagde: er du Christus? siig os det. Men han sagde til dem: siger jeg Eder det, troe I det ikke.68 Men om jeg og spørger, svare I mig ikke eller lade mig løs.69 Fra nu af skal Menneskens Søn sidde hos Guds Krafts høire Haand.70 Men de sagde alle: er du da den Guds Søn? Men han sagde til dem: I sige det; thi jeg er det.71 Men de sagde: hvad have vi ydermere Vidnesbyrd behov? thi vi have selv hørt det af hans Mund.

Luke 22

Judas’ Decision to Betray Jesus

1 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread,s which is called the Passover, was approaching.

2 Thet chief priests and the experts in the lawt were trying to find some wayt to executet Jesus,t for they were afraid of the people.s
3 Thent Satans entered Judas, the one called Iscariot, who was one of the twelve.t4 He went away and discussed with the chief priests and officers of the temple guardt how he mightt betray Jesus,t handing him over to them.t5 Theyt were delighteds and arranged to give him money.s

6 Sot Judast agreed and began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesust when no crowd was present.ts

The Passover

7 Then the day for the feastt of Unleavened Bread came, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.s8 Jesust sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passovers for us to eat.”t9 Theyt said to him, “Where do you want us to preparet it?”10 He said to them, “Listen,t when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of waters will meet you.s Follow him into the house that he enters,11 and tell the owner of the house,t ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’12 Then he will show you a large furnished room upstairs. Make preparations there.”

13 Sot they went and found thingst just as he had told them,s and they prepared the Passover.

The Lord’s Supper

14 Nowt when the hour came, Jesust took his place at the tablet and the apostles joinedt him.15 And he said to them, “I have earnestly desiredt to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.16 For I tell you, I will not eat it againt until it is fulfilleds in the kingdom of God.”s17 Thent he took a cup,s and after giving thanks he said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves.18 For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruitt of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”s19 Thent he took bread, and after giving thanks he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my bodys which is given for you.s Do this in remembrance of me.”

20 And in the same way he tookt the cup after they had eaten,t saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenants in my blood.

A Final Discourse

21 “But look, the hand of the one who betrayss me is with me on the table.s22 For the Son of Man is to go just as it has been determined,s but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!”

23 Sot they began to question one another as to which of them it could possibly be who would do this.
24 A dispute also startedt among them over which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.t25 Sot Jesust said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’s26 Not so with you;t instead the one who is greatest among you must become like the youngest, and the leadert like the one who serves.s

27 For who is greater, the one who is seated at the table,t or the one who serves? Is it nott the one who is seated at the table? But I am among you as ones who serves.
28 “You are the ones who have remainedt with me in my trials.29 Thust I grants to you a kingdom,t just as my Father granted to me,

30 that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and you will sitt on thrones judgings the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 “Simon,s Simon, pay attention!t Satan has demanded to have you all,s to sift you like wheat,s32 but I have prayed for you, Simon,s that your faith may not fail.s Whent you have turned back,t strengthens your brothers.”33 But Petert said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”s

34 Jesus replied,t “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crows today until you have denieds three times that you know me.”
35 Thent Jesust said to them, “When I sent you out with no money bag,t or traveler’s bag,t or sandals, you didn’t lacks anything, did you?” They replied,t “Nothing.”36 He said to them, “But now, the one whot has a money bag must take it, and likewise a traveler’s bagt too. And the one who has no sword must sell his cloak and buy one.37 For I tell you that this scripture must bes fulfilled in me, ‘And he was counted with the transgressors.’ts For what is written about me is being fulfilled.”t

38 Sot they said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords.”s Then he told them, “It is enough.”s

On the Mount of Olives

39 Thent Jesust went out and made his way,t as he customarily did, to the Mount of Olives,s and the disciples followed him.40 When he came to the place,s he said to them, “Pray that you will not fall into temptation.”s41 He went away from them about a stone’s throw, knelt down, and prayed,42 “Father, if you are willing, taket this cups away from me. Yet not my will but yourss be done.”43 Then an angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him.44 And in his anguisht he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.]sss45 Whent he got up from prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping, exhaustedt from grief.

46 Sot he said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you will not fall into temptation!”s

Betrayal and Arrest

47 While he was still speaking, suddenly a crowd appeared,t and the man named Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He walked upt to Jesus to kiss him.s48 But Jesus said to him, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”s49 Whent those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said, “Lord, shouldt we use our swords?”s50 Thent one of thems struck the high priest’s slave,t cutting off his right ear.51 But Jesus said,t “Enough of this!” And he touched the man’st ear and healeds him.52 Thent Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard,t and the elders who had come out to get him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs like you would against an outlaw?t

53 Day after day when I was with you in the temple courts,t you did not arrest me.t But this is your hour,t and that of the powert of darkness!”

Jesus’ Condemnation and Peter’s Denials

54 Thent they arrestedt Jesus,t led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house.s But Peter was following at a distance.55 When they had made a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.56 Then a slave girl,t seeing him as he sat in the firelight, stared at him and said, “This man was with him too!”57 But Petert denied it: “Woman,s I don’t knows him!”58 Thent a little later someone elses saw him and said, “You are one of them too.” But Peter said, “Man,t I am not!”59 And after about an hour still another insisted,t “Certainly this man was with him, because he too is a Galilean.”s60 But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” At that moment,t while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.t61 Thent the Lord turned and looked straight at Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord,t how he had said to him, “Before a rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.”

62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.s
63 Nowt the men who were holding Jesust under guard began to mock him and beat him.64 Theyt blindfolded him and asked him repeatedly,t “Prophesy! Who hit you?”ts

65 They also said many other things against him, revilingt him.
66 When day came, the council of the elders of the people gathered together, both the chief priests and the experts in the law.t Thent they led Jesust away to their councils67 and said, “Ift you are the Christ,ts tell us.” But he said to them, “Ift I tell you, you will nott believe,68 and ift I ask you, you will nott answer.69 But from now onsthe Son of Man will be seated at the right hands of the powers of God.”70 Sot they all said, “Are you the Son of God,s then?” He answeredt them, “You says that I am.”

71 Thent they said, “Why do we need further testimony? We have heard it ourselvess from his own lips!”t
