Matthieu 21
Segond 21
Entrée triomphale de Jésus à Jérusalem
21 Lorsqu'ils approchèrent de Jérusalem et qu'ils furent arrivés à Bethphagé, vers le mont des Oliviers, Jésus envoya deux disciples 2 en leur disant: «Allez au village qui est devant vous; vous y trouverez tout de suite une ânesse attachée et un ânon avec elle; détachez-les et amenez-les-moi. 3 Si quelqu'un vous dit quelque chose, vous répondrez: ‘Le Seigneur en a besoin.’ Et à l'instant il les laissera aller.»
4 Or [tout] ceci arriva afin que s'accomplisse ce que le prophète avait annoncé: 5 Dites à la fille de Sion: ‘Voici ton roi qui vient à toi, plein de douceur et monté sur un âne, sur un ânon, le petit d'une ânesse.’[a]
6 Les disciples allèrent faire ce que Jésus leur avait ordonné. 7 Ils amenèrent l'ânesse et l'ânon, mirent leurs vêtements sur eux, et Jésus s'assit dessus. 8 Une grande foule de gens étendirent leurs vêtements sur le chemin; d'autres coupèrent des branches aux arbres et en jonchèrent la route. 9 Ceux qui précédaient et ceux qui suivaient Jésus criaient: «Hosanna[b] au Fils de David[c]! Béni soit celui qui vient au nom du Seigneur![d] Hosanna dans les lieux très hauts!»
10 Lorsqu'il entra dans Jérusalem, toute la ville fut troublée. On disait: «Qui est cet homme?» 11 La foule répondait: «C'est Jésus, le prophète de Nazareth en Galilée.»
Jésus dans le temple
12 Jésus entra dans le temple [de Dieu]. Il chassa tous ceux qui vendaient et qui achetaient dans le temple, et il renversa les tables des changeurs de monnaie et les sièges des vendeurs de pigeons. 13 Il leur dit: «Il est écrit: Mon temple sera appelé une maison de prière[e], mais vous, vous en avez fait une caverne de voleurs[f].»
14 Des aveugles et des boiteux s'approchèrent de lui dans le temple, et il les guérit. 15 Mais les chefs des prêtres et les spécialistes de la loi furent indignés à la vue des choses merveilleuses qu'il avait faites et des enfants qui criaient dans le temple: «Hosanna au Fils de David!» 16 Ils lui dirent: «Entends-tu ce qu'ils disent?» «Oui, leur répondit Jésus. N'avez-vous jamais lu ces paroles: Tu as tiré des louanges de la bouche des enfants et des nourrissons[g]?» 17 Puis il les laissa et sortit de la ville pour aller à Béthanie où il passa la nuit.
18 Le lendemain matin, en retournant à la ville, il eut faim. 19 Il vit un figuier sur le bord du chemin et s'en approcha, mais il n'y trouva que des feuilles. Il lui dit: «Que jamais plus tu ne portes de fruit!» Le figuier sécha immédiatement. 20 Voyant cela, les disciples furent étonnés et dirent: «Comment ce figuier a-t-il pu devenir immédiatement sec?» 21 Jésus leur dit alors: «Je vous le dis en vérité, si vous avez de la foi et que vous ne doutez pas, non seulement vous ferez ce qui a été fait à ce figuier, mais même si vous dites à cette montagne: ‘Retire-toi de là et jette-toi dans la mer’, cela arrivera. 22 Tout ce que vous demanderez avec foi par la prière, vous le recevrez.»
23 Jésus se rendit dans le temple et, pendant qu'il enseignait, les chefs des prêtres et les anciens du peuple vinrent lui dire: «Par quelle autorité fais-tu ces choses, et qui t'a donné cette autorité?» 24 Jésus leur répondit: «Je vous poserai moi aussi une question et, si vous m'y répondez, je vous dirai par quelle autorité je fais ces choses. 25 Le baptême de Jean, d'où venait-il? Du ciel ou des hommes?» Mais ils raisonnèrent ainsi entre eux: «Si nous répondons: ‘Du ciel’, il nous dira: ‘Pourquoi donc n'avez-vous pas cru en lui?’ 26 Et si nous répondons: ‘Des hommes’, nous avons à redouter les réactions de la foule, car tous considèrent Jean comme un prophète.» 27 Alors ils répondirent à Jésus: «Nous ne savons pas.» Il leur dit à son tour: «Moi non plus, je ne vous dirai pas par quelle autorité je fais ces choses.
Parabole des deux fils
28 »Qu'en pensez-vous? Un homme avait deux fils. Il s'adressa au premier et lui dit: ‘Mon enfant, va travailler aujourd'hui dans ma vigne.’ 29 Il répondit: ‘Je ne veux pas’ mais, plus tard, il montra du regret et y alla. 30 Le père s'adressa à l'autre et lui dit la même chose. Ce fils répondit: ‘Je veux bien, seigneur’, mais il n'y alla pas. 31 Lequel des deux a fait la volonté du père?» Ils répondirent: «Le premier.» Et Jésus leur dit: «Je vous le dis en vérité, les collecteurs d’impôts et les prostituées vous précéderont dans le royaume de Dieu, 32 car Jean est venu à vous dans la voie de la justice et vous n'avez pas cru en lui. En revanche, les collecteurs d’impôts et les prostituées ont cru en lui et vous, qui avez vu cela, vous n’avez pas ensuite montré de regret pour croire en lui.
Parabole des vignerons
33 »Ecoutez une autre parabole. Il y avait un propriétaire, qui planta une vigne. Il l'entoura d'une haie, y creusa un pressoir et construisit une tour; puis il la loua à des vignerons et partit en voyage. 34 Lorsque le temps de la récolte fut arrivé, il envoya ses serviteurs vers les vignerons pour recevoir sa part de récolte. 35 Mais les vignerons s’emparèrent de ses serviteurs; ils battirent l'un, tuèrent l'autre et lapidèrent le troisième. 36 Il envoya encore d'autres serviteurs, en plus grand nombre que les premiers, et les vignerons les traitèrent de la même manière. 37 Enfin, il envoya vers eux son fils en se disant: ‘Ils auront du respect pour mon fils.’ 38 Mais, quand les vignerons virent le fils, ils se dirent entre eux: ‘Voilà l'héritier. Venez, tuons-le et emparons-nous de son héritage!’ 39 Et ils s’emparèrent de lui, le jetèrent hors de la vigne et le tuèrent. 40 Maintenant, lorsque le maître de la vigne viendra, que fera-t-il à ces vignerons?» 41 Ils lui répondirent: «Il fera mourir misérablement ces misérables et il louera la vigne à d'autres vignerons qui lui donneront sa part de récolte au moment voulu.»
42 Jésus leur dit: «N'avez-vous jamais lu dans les Ecritures: La pierre qu'ont rejetée ceux qui construisaient est devenue la pierre angulaire; c'est l’œuvre du Seigneur, et c'est un prodige à nos yeux[h]? 43 C'est pourquoi, je vous le dis, le royaume de Dieu vous sera enlevé et sera donné à un peuple qui en produira les fruits. 44 Celui qui tombera sur cette pierre s'y brisera et celui sur qui elle tombera sera écrasé.»
45 Après avoir entendu ses paraboles, les chefs des prêtres et les pharisiens comprirent que c'était d'eux que Jésus parlait. 46 Ils cherchaient à l'arrêter, mais ils redoutaient les réactions de la foule, parce qu'elle considérait Jésus comme un prophète.

Matthæus 21
Dette er Biblen på dansk
21 Og da de nærmede sig Jerusalem og kom til Bethfage ved Oliebjerget, da udsendte Jesus to Disciple og sagde til dem: 2 "Går hen i den Landsby, som ligger lige for eder; og straks skulle I finde en Aseninde bunden og et Føl hos hende; løser dem og fører dem til mig! 3 Og dersom nogen siger noget til eder, da siger, at Herren har Brug for dem, så skal han straks sende dem." 4 Men dette er sket, for at det skulde opfyldes, der er talt ved Profeten, som siger: 5 "Siger til Zions Datter: Se, din Konge kommer til dig, sagtmodig og ridende på et Asen og på et Trældyrs Føl." 6 Men Disciplene gik hen og gjorde, som Jesus befalede dem; 7 og de hentede Aseninden og Føllet og lagde deres Klæder på dem, og han satte sig derpå. 8 Men de fleste af Folkeskaren bredte deres Klæder på Vejen, andre huggede Grene af Træerne og strøede dem på Vejen. 9 Men Skarerne, som gik foran ham og fulgte efter, råbte og sagde: "Hosanna Davids Søn! velsignet være den, som kommer, i Herrens Navn! Hosanna i det højeste!" 10 Og da han drog ind i Jerusalem, kom hele Staden i Bevægelse og sagde: "Hvem er denne?" 11 Men Skarerne sagde: "Det er Profeten Jesus fra Nazareth i Galilæa."
12 Og Jesus gik ind i Guds Helligdom og uddrev alle dem, som solgte og købte i Helligdommen, og han væltede Vekselerernes Borde og Duekræmmernes Stole. 13 Og han siger til dem: "Der er skrevet: Mit Hus skal kaldes et Bedehus; men I gøre det til en Røverkule." 14 Og der kom blinde og lamme til ham i Helligdommen, og han helbredte dem. 15 Men da Ypperstepræsterne og de skriftkloge så de Undergerninger, som han gjorde, og Børnene, som råbte i Helligdommen og sagde: "Hosanna Davids Søn!" bleve de vrede og sagde til ham: 16 "Hører du, hvad disse sige?" Men Jesus siger til dem: "Ja! have I aldrig læst: Af umyndiges og diendes Mund har du beredt dig Lovsang?" 17 Og han forlod dem og gik uden for Staden til Bethania og overnattede der.
18 Men da han om Morgenen igen gik ind til Staden, blev hen hungrig. 19 Og han så et Figentræ ved Vejen og gik hen til det, og han fandt intet derpå uden Blade alene. Og han siger til det: "Aldrig i Evighed skal der vokse Frugt mere på dig!" Og Figentræet visnede straks. 20 Og da Disciplene så det, forundrede de sig og sagde: "Hvorledes kunde Figentræet straks visne?" 21 Men Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: "Sandelig, siger jeg eder, dersom I have Tro og ikke tvivle, da skulle I ikke alene kunne gøre det med Figentræet, men dersom I endog sige til dette Bjerg: Løft dig op og kast dig i Havet, da skal det ske. 22 Og alt, hvad I begære i Bønnen troende, det skulle I få."
23 Og da han kom ind i Helligdommen, kom Ypperstepræsterne og Folkets Ældste hen til ham, medens han lærte, og de sagde: "Af hvad Magt gør du disse Ting, og hvem har givet dig denne Magt?" 24 Men Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: "Også jeg vil spørge eder om een Ting, og dersom I sige mig det, vil også jeg sige eder, af hvad Magt jeg gør disse Ting. 25 Johannes's Dåb, hvorfra var den? Fra Himmelen eller fra Mennesker?" Men de tænkte ved sig selv og sagde: "Sige vi: Fra Himmelen, da vil han sige til os: Hvorfor troede I ham da ikke? 26 Men sige vi: Fra Mennesker, frygte vi for Mængden; thi de holde alle Johannes for en Profet." 27 Og de svarede Jesus og sagde: "Det vide vi ikke." Da sagde også han til dem: "Så siger ikke heller jeg eder, af hvad Magt jeg gør disse Ting.
28 Men hvad tykkes eder? En Mand havde to Børn; og han gik til den første og sagde: Barn! gå hen, arbejd i Dag i min Vingård! 29 Men han svarede og sagde: Nej, jeg vil ikke; men bagefter fortrød han det og gik derhen. 30 Og han gik til den anden og sagde ligeså. Men han svarede og sagde: Ja, Herre! og gik ikke derhen. 31 Hvem af de to gjorde Faderens Villie?" De sige: "Den første." Jesus siger til dem: "Sandelig, siger jeg eder, at Toldere og Skøger gå forud for eder ind i Guds Rige. 32 Thi Johannes kom til eder på Retfærdigheds Vej, og I troede ham ikke, men Toldere og Skøger troede ham; men endskønt I så det, fortrøde I det alligevel ikke bagefter, så I troede ham.
33 Hører en anden Lignelse: Der var en Husbond, som plantede en Vingård og satte et Gærde omkring den og gravede en Perse i den og byggede et Tårn; og han lejede den ud til Vingårdsmænd og drog udenlands. 34 Men da Frugttiden nærmede sig, sendte han sine Tjenere til Vingårdsmændene for at få dens Frugter. 35 Og Vingårdsmændene grebe hans Tjenere, og en sloge de, en dræbte de, og en stenede de. 36 Atter sendte han andre Tjenere hen, flere end de første; og de gjorde ligeså med dem. 37 Men til sidst sendte han sin Søn til dem og sagde: De ville undse sig for min Søn. 38 Men da Vingårdsmændene så Sønnen, sagde de til hverandre: Det er Arvingen; kommer lader os slå ham ihjel og få hans Arv! 39 Og de grebe ham og kastede ham ud af Vingården og sloge ham ihjel. 40 Når da Vingårdens Herre kommer, hvad vil han så gøre med disse Vingårdsmænd?" 41 De sige til ham: "Ilde vil han ødelægge de onde og leje sin Vingård ud til andre Vingårdsmænd, som ville give ham Frugterne i deres Tid." 42 Jesus siger til dem: "Have I aldrig læst i Skrifterne: Den Sten, som Bygningsmændene forkastede, den er bleven til en Hovedhjørnesten; fra Herren er dette kommet, og det er underligt for vore Øjne. 43 Derfor siger jeg eder, at Guds Rige skal tages fra eder og gives til et Folk, som bærer dets Frugter. 44 Og den, som falder på denne Sten, skal slå sig sønder; men hvem den falder på, ham skal den knuse." 45 Og da Ypperstepræsterne og Farisæerne hørte hans Lignelser, forstode de, at han talte om dem. 46 Og de søgte at gribe ham, men frygtede for Skarerne; thi de holdt ham for en Profet.
Matthew 21
New International Version
Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(A)(B)
21 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives,(C) Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me. 3 If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”
4 This took place to fulfill(D) what was spoken through the prophet:
5 “Say to Daughter Zion,
‘See, your king comes to you,
gentle and riding on a donkey,
and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”[a](E)
6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt and placed their cloaks on them for Jesus to sit on. 8 A very large crowd spread their cloaks(F) on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted,
10 When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”
11 The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the prophet(J) from Nazareth in Galilee.”
Jesus at the Temple(K)
12 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying(L) and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers(M) and the benches of those selling doves.(N) 13 “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’[e](O) but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’[f]”(P)
14 The blind and the lame came to him at the temple, and he healed them.(Q) 15 But when the chief priests and the teachers of the law saw the wonderful things he did and the children shouting in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David,”(R) they were indignant.(S)
16 “Do you hear what these children are saying?” they asked him.
“Yes,” replied Jesus, “have you never read,
17 And he left them and went out of the city to Bethany,(U) where he spent the night.
Jesus Curses a Fig Tree(V)
18 Early in the morning, as Jesus was on his way back to the city, he was hungry. 19 Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, “May you never bear fruit again!” Immediately the tree withered.(W)
20 When the disciples saw this, they were amazed. “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?” they asked.
21 Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt,(X) not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done. 22 If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for(Y) in prayer.”
The Authority of Jesus Questioned(Z)
23 Jesus entered the temple courts, and, while he was teaching, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him. “By what authority(AA) are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you this authority?”
24 Jesus replied, “I will also ask you one question. If you answer me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 25 John’s baptism—where did it come from? Was it from heaven, or of human origin?”
They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’ 26 But if we say, ‘Of human origin’—we are afraid of the people, for they all hold that John was a prophet.”(AB)
27 So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.”
Then he said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
The Parable of the Two Sons
28 “What do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’(AC)
29 “‘I will not,’ he answered, but later he changed his mind and went.
30 “Then the father went to the other son and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I will, sir,’ but he did not go.
31 “Which of the two did what his father wanted?”
“The first,” they answered.
Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors(AD) and the prostitutes(AE) are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you. 32 For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness,(AF) and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors(AG) and the prostitutes(AH) did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent(AI) and believe him.
The Parable of the Tenants(AJ)
33 “Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted(AK) a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it and built a watchtower.(AL) Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place.(AM) 34 When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants(AN) to the tenants to collect his fruit.
35 “The tenants seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.(AO) 36 Then he sent other servants(AP) to them, more than the first time, and the tenants treated them the same way. 37 Last of all, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
38 “But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, ‘This is the heir.(AQ) Come, let’s kill him(AR) and take his inheritance.’(AS) 39 So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
40 “Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?”
41 “He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,”(AT) they replied, “and he will rent the vineyard to other tenants,(AU) who will give him his share of the crop at harvest time.”
42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures:
“‘The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;
the Lord has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes’[h]?(AV)
43 “Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you(AW) and given to a people who will produce its fruit. 44 Anyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.”[i](AX)
45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard Jesus’ parables, they knew he was talking about them. 46 They looked for a way to arrest him, but they were afraid of the crowd because the people held that he was a prophet.(AY)

Matthew 21
King James Version
21 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,
2 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.
3 And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
4 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.
6 And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,
7 And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.
8 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
10 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
11 And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
15 And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore displeased,
16 And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
17 And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.
18 Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.
19 And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.
20 And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!
21 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.
22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
23 And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
24 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
25 The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?
26 But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.
27 And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
28 But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.
29 He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.
30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.
31 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.
33 Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:
34 And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.
35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.
37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
39 And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
40 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.
