5 Mosebok 1

Студија

1 Dette er de ord Moses talte til hele Israel i ørkenen på hin side* Jordan, i ødemarken, midt imot Suf, mellem Paran og Tofel og Laban og Haserot og Di-Sahab, / {* østenfor.}

2 elleve dagsreiser fra Horeb efter den vei som fører til Se'ir-fjellene, til Kades-Barnea.

3 Det var i det firtiende år, i den ellevte måned, på den første dag i måneden Moses talte til Israels barn og bar frem alt det Herren hadde befalt ham å tale til dem,

4 efterat han hadde slått Sihon, amorittenes konge, som bodde i Hesbon, og ved Edre'i hadde slått Og, kongen i Basan, som bodde i Astarot.

5 På hin side Jordan, i Moabs land, tok Moses sig fore å utlegge denne lov og sa:

6 Herren vår Gud talte til oss ved Horeb og sa: Lenge nok har I opholdt eder ved dette fjell.

7 Bryt nu op og gi eder på veien til amoritter-fjellene og til alle de folk som bor deromkring, i ødemarken, i fjellbygdene og i lavlandet og i sydlandet og ved havstranden, til kana'anittenes land og til Libanon, helt til den store elv, elven Frat.

8 Se, jeg har gitt landet i eders vold; dra avsted og innta det land som Herren har tilsvoret eders fedre Abraham, Isak og Jakob å ville gi dem og deres ætt efter dem!

9 Dengang sa jeg til eder: Jeg makter ikke alene å bære eder.

10 Herren eders Gud har gjort eder tallrike, så I idag er som stjernene på himmelen i mengde;

11 og måtte bare Herren, eders fedres Gud, gjøre eder tusen ganger flere enn I er, og velsigne eder, som han har tilsagt eder!

12 Men hvorledes kan jeg alene bære strevet og møien med eder og alle eders tretter?

13 Kom med nogen vise og forstandige og prøvede menn fra hver av eders stammer! Så vil jeg sette dem til høvdinger over eder.

14 Da svarte I mig: Det er både rett og godt det du sier.

15 Så tok jeg høvdingene for eders stammer, vise og prøvede menn, og satte dem til høvdinger over eder, nogen over tusen og nogen over hundre og nogen over femti og nogen over ti, og jeg gjorde dem til tilsynsmenn over eders stammer.

16 Dengang bød jeg også eders dommere og sa: Hør på de saker som eders brødre har sig imellem, og døm med rettferdighet mellem en mann og hans bror eller en fremmed som bor hos ham!

17 I skal ikke gjøre forskjell på folk når I dømmer; den minste som den største skal I høre på. I skal ikke være redde for nogen, for dommen hører Gud til. Men om nogen sak er for vanskelig for eder, skal I føre den frem for mig; så vil jeg høre på den.

18 Og på samme tid bød jeg eder alt det I skulde gjøre.

19 Så brøt vi op fra Horeb og drog gjennem hele den store og forferdelige ørken som I har sett, på veien til amoritter-fjellene, således som Herren vår Gud bød oss; og vi kom til Kades-Barnea.

20 Da sa jeg til eder: Nu er I kommet til amoritter-fjellene, som Herren vår Gud vil gi oss.

21 Se, Herren din Gud har gitt landet i din vold; dra op og innta det, som Herren, dine fedres Gud, har tilsagt dig! Frykt ikke og vær ikke redd!

22 Da kom I til mig alle sammen og sa: La oss sende folk i forveien for oss, så de kan utspeide landet for oss og gi oss beskjed om hvad vei vi skal dra dit op, og hvad byer vi kommer til!

23 Dette syntes jeg godt om, og jeg tok ut blandt eder tolv menn, én mann for hver stamme.

24 Og de tok avsted og drog op i fjellene og kom til Eskol-dalen; og de utspeidet landet.

25 Og de tok med sig av landets frukter ned til oss, og de gav oss beskjed tilbake og sa: Det land som Herren vår Gud vil gi oss, er et godt land.

26 Men I vilde ikke dra dit op; I var gjenstridige mot Herrens, eders Guds ord.

27 Og I knurret i eders telter og sa: Herren hater oss; derfor har han ført oss ut av Egyptens land og vil gi oss i amorittenes hånd og ødelegge oss.

28 Hvad er det for et land vi skal dra op til! Våre brødre har gjort vårt hjerte mistrøstig ved å si: Det er et folk som er større og høiere enn vi, og de har store byer med murer som når til himmelen; og der så vi også anakittenes barn.

29 Da sa jeg til eder: I skal ikke forferdes og ikke være redde for dem;

30 Herren eders Gud, som går foran eder, han skal stride for eder, således som I så han gjorde for eder i Egypten

31 og i ørkenen du har sett, der hvor Herren din Gud bar dig som en mann bærer sitt barn, på hele den vei I har vandret til I kom til dette sted.

32 Men allikevel trodde I ikke på Herren eders Gud,

33 han som gikk foran eder på veien for å søke ut leirplass for eder, om natten i en ild, så I kunde se den vei I skulde gå, og om dagen i en sky.

34 Da Herren hørte eders tale, blev han vred og svor:

35 Sannelig, ikke nogen av disse menn, av denne onde slekt, skal se det gode land jeg har svoret å ville gi eders fedre -

36 ingen uten Kaleb, Jefunnes sønn; han skal få se det; ham og hans barn vil jeg gi det land han har trådt på med sin fot, for han har trolig fulgt Herren.

37 Også mig blev Herren vred på for eders skyld og sa: Heller ikke du skal komme der inn.

38 Josva, Nuns sønn, som går dig til hånde, han skal komme der inn; styrk ham, for han skal skifte det ut til arv blandt Israel.

39 Og eders barn, som I sa vilde bli til rov, og eders sønner, som ennu ikke kan skille godt fra ondt, de skal komme der inn, dem vil jeg gi det, og de skal ta det i eie.

40 Men vend I om og ta ut i ørkenen, på veien til det øde Hav!

41 Da svarte I og sa til mig: Vi har syndet mot Herren; nu vil vi dra op og stride, således som Herren vår Gud har befalt oss. Og I omgjordet eder med eders stridsvåben hver og en, og I holdt det for en lett sak å dra op i fjellene.

42 Da sa Herren til mig: Si til dem: I skal ikke dra op, og I skal ikke stride; for jeg er ikke med eder; I kommer bare til å bli slått av eders fiender.

43 Og jeg talte til eder, men I hørte ikke på mig; I var gjenstridige mot Herrens ord og dristet eder til å dra op i fjellene.

44 Da drog amorittene, som bodde der i fjellene, ut mot eder, og de forfulgte eder likesom en bisverm, og de slo eder sønder og sammen i Se'ir og drev eder like til Horma.

45 Og I vendte tilbake og gråt for Herrens åsyn; men Herren hørte ikke på eders klager og vendte ikke sitt øre til eder.

46 Og I måtte bli i Kades i lang tid, hele den tid I var der.

Apocalypse Explained #505

505. And they were cast unto the earth, signifies progression towards the lower parts, where the evil were. This is evident from the signification of "being cast unto the earth," namely, "hail and fire mingled with blood," which was effected by "the first angel sounding," as being to advance towards the lower parts, where the evil were consociated, with whom also there were some of the good. This signifies progression towards the lower parts, because the changes and desolations that are signified by "the third part of the trees and all the green grass were burnt up," were effected progressively towards the lower parts where the evil were, as has been said above. "The earth" means here the lower parts, because these things were seen by John when he was in the spirit, that is, when he was in the spiritual world; for man's spirit, when it has its sight opened, sees the things that are in the spiritual world and in that world there are mountains, hills, and valleys, and upon the mountains and hills there are the angelic heavens, but in the valleys below are those who have not yet been taken up into heaven; on these, therefore, there were now the evil mixed with the good; wherefore these valleys that were below the mountains and hills are here meant by "the earth" (or land); so "to be cast unto the earth" means out of the heavens towards the lower parts. But when mountains, hills, and valleys taken together are called "the earth," then "the earth" signifies the church there.

Matthew 13

Студија

   

1 On that day Jesus went out of the house, and sat by the seaside.

2 Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat, and sat, and all the multitude stood on the beach.

3 He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, "Behold, a farmer went out to sow.

4 As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.

5 Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn't have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.

6 When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.

7 Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.

8 Others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.

9 He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

10 The disciples came, and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"

11 He answered them, "To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.

12 For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance, but whoever doesn't have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.

13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they don't see, and hearing, they don't hear, neither do they understand.

14 In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, 'By hearing you will hear, and will in no way understand; Seeing you will see, and will in no way perceive:

15 for this people's heart has grown callous, their ears are dull of hearing, they have closed their eyes; or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and should turn again; and I would heal them.'

16 "But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.

17 For most certainly I tell you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you see, and didn't see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and didn't hear them.

18 "Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.

19 When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn't understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.

20 What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word, and immediately with joy receives it;

21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.

22 What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.

23 What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty."

24 He set another parable before them, saying, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,

25 but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel weeds also among the wheat, and went away.

26 But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then the darnel weeds appeared also.

27 The servants of the householder came and said to him, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where did this darnel come from?'

28 "He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' "The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and gather them up?'

29 "But he said, 'No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel weeds, you root up the wheat with them.

30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, "First, gather up the darnel weeds, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn."'"

31 He set another parable before them, saying, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field;

32 which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches."

33 He spoke another parable to them. "The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, until it was all leavened."

34 Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn't speak to them,

35 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, "I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world."

36 Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field."

37 He answered them, "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,

38 the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the children of the Kingdom; and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one.

39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.

40 As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of this age.

41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and those who do iniquity,

42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

43 Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

44 "Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found, and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.

45 "Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,

46 who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

47 "Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some fish of every kind,

48 which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach. They sat down, and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.

49 So will it be in the end of the world. The angels will come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous,

50 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth."

51 Jesus said to them, "Have you understood all these things?" They answered him, "Yes, Lord."

52 He said to them, "Therefore, every scribe who has been made a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things."

53 It happened that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.

54 Coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom, and these mighty works?

55 Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother called Mary, and his brothers, James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?

56 Aren't all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?"

57 They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and in his own house."

58 He didn't do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
