Again and again in my work I experience that when it comes to true freedom, we are talking about freedom with faith in Jesus Christ. | BLARK_translated | Aftur og aftur upplivi eg í mínum arbeiði, at tá talan er um veruligt frælsi, so tala vit um frælsi við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. |
Already in 1877 the founders of the Blue Cross in Switzerland saw the same thing, that true freedom is obtained through faith in Jesus Christ. They were so certain of this that they put it on paper. Since then this has been at the very top of the banner of the fundamental vision of the International Blue Cross. | BLARK_translated | Longu í 1877 sóu stovnararnir av Bláa Krossi í Sveits tað sama, at veruligt frælsi fæst við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. Hesum kendu teir seg so vísan í, at teir festu tað á blað. Síðani tá hevur hetta staðið ovast á breddanum fyri grundhugsjónina hjá Altjóða Bláa Krossi. |
When we in 1996 drew up bylaws for Blue Cross of the Faroe Islands, we chose to do the same. Thus this is also the first rule in the conviction of Blue Cross of the Faroe Islands: that true freedom is gained through faith in Jesus Christ. This was done because we were convinced that this is the reality. | BLARK_translated | Tá ið vit í 1996 gjørdu egnar viðtøkur fyri Bláa Kross Føroya, valdu vit at gera tað sama. Sostatt er hetta eisini fyrsta regla í hugsjónini hjá Bláa Krossi Føroya: at veruligt frælsi fæst við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. Hetta varð gjørt, tí vit kendu okkum sannførdan um, at soleiðis er veruleikin. |
I have met many people who, with tearful voices, say they want to get away from this slavery that being addicted to alcohol is. They can't go on any longer, and their loved ones can't either. But they are not able to do it. | BLARK_translated | Eg havi hitt mong menniskju, sum við gráturødd siga seg vilja sleppa burtur úr hesum trælahaldi, ið tað er at vera bundin at rúsdrekka. Tey orka ikki meira, og tey avvarðandi orka heldur ikki meira. Men tey megna tað ikki. |
I have also met many people who had been addicted to alcohol for a long time, but who have now become free and have gotten rid of it. | BLARK_translated | Eg havi eisini hitt mong menniskju, sum hava verið bundin at rúsdrekka í langa tíð, men sum nú eru vorðin fræls og eru sloppin av við tað. |
Most of those I know who have truly gotten free from addiction can testify that it was with God's help and His Word, and that true freedom is obtained by faith in Jesus Christ. These people now feel free to be in the faith of Jesus Christ. | BLARK_translated | Tey flestu, ið eg kenni og sum veruliga eru sloppin burtur úr misnýtsluni, kunna vitna, at tað var við Guds og hansara orðs hjálp og at veruligt frælsi fæst við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. Hesi menniskju kenna seg nú frælsan at vera við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. |
It strengthens my faith that the vision of the Blue Cross is the right one. God’s word is powerful and can loosen chains of slavery, even for the most badly gone. Therefore we in the Blue Cross want and must continue to hold firmly to this vision of ours: that true freedom is obtained through faith in Jesus Christ. | BLARK_translated | Tað styrkir meg í trúnni um, at hugsjónin hjá Bláa Krossi er tann rætta. Guds orð er máttmikið og kann loysa trælabond, sjálvt hjá tí ringast farna. Tí vilja vit og tí eiga vit í Bláa Krossi framhaldandi at halda rimmar fast við hesa hugsjón okkara: at veruligt frælsi fæst við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. |
Time after time we have read in the Blue Cross magazine about former addicts who were chained and bound to substance abuse, but who are now truly free through faith in Jesus Christ. | BLARK_translated | Ferð eftir ferð hava vit lisið í Blákrossblaðnum um fyrrverandi misnýtarar, sum hava verið leinkjaðir og bundnir at rúsdrekka, men sum nú veruliga eru frælsir við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. |
Again this time we have a conversation with a former addict, a woman who now dares to come forward and testify that she has now, with God's help and the help of His word, been saved by faith in Jesus Christ. | BLARK_translated | Aftur hesa ferð hava vit samrøðu við ein fyrrverandi misnýtara, eina kvinnu, sum nú torir at standa fram og vitna, at hon nú, við Guds og hansara orðs hjálp, er vorðin fræls við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. |
Yes, it is a proven fact that true freedom is obtained through faith in Jesus Christ. | BLARK_translated | Jú, tað er ein sannroynd, at veruligt frælsi fæst við trúnni á Jesus Kristus. |
I knew that my drinking affected the family — for example, the children didn’t dare bring friends home because they never knew what the situation at home would be. They were also crushed inside. I saw it and it hurt me terribly, and time after time I promised both myself and them that it was over now, that I would neve... | BLARK_translated | Eg visti, at drekkaríði hjá mær ávirkaði familjuna t.d. tordu børnini ikki at taka vinir heim við sær, tí tey ongantíð vistu, hvussu støðan var heima. Tey vóru eisini knúst innaní. Eg sá tað og tað píndi meg ræðuliga og ferð eftir ferð lovaði eg bæði mær sjálvum og teimum, at nú var liðugt, nú skuldi eg ongantíð drekka... |
51-year-old Sigrid Ludvig lives in Tvøroyri and today works at Føroyar Fiskavirking in her hometown. She is married and they have three children. Sigrid is now a happy woman who feels good about herself and her family, but it has not always been that way. | BLARK_translated | 51 ára gamla Sigrid Ludvig er búsitandi á Tvøroyri og arbeiðir í dag á Føroya Fiskavirking í heimbýnum. Hon er gift og tey eiga trý børn. Sigrid er í dag ein glað kvinna, sum hevur tað gott við seg sjálvan og við familjuna, men soleiðis hevur ikki altíð verið. |
Not until Sigrid was 31 years old did she taste the first beer of her life, but why did she do it? "I drank that first beer because there were certain problems at home that I probably tried to solve or suppress in that way," she says, without, however, saying exactly what the problems were. She thought the beer had bee... | BLARK_translated | Ikki fyrr enn Sigrid var 31 ára gomul smakkaði hon fyrstu ølina í lívinum, men hví gjørdi hon tað? - Eg drakk tað fyrstu ølina, tí tað vóru ávísir trupulleikar heima, sum eg helst á henda hátt royndi at loysa ella fortreingja, sigur hon, uttan tó at siga júst hvørjir trupulleikarnir vóru. Hon helt, at ølin hevði verið ... |
After the first beers had gone down, others quickly followed. — At first I drank only when there was something special on the program, but it wasn’t long before I started drinking beer at home. I was at home all day and wasn’t feeling very well. After a while the beers were replaced with schnapps, says Sigrid. She goes... | BLARK_translated | Eftir at fyrsta ølin var farin niðurum, fylgdu skjótt aðrar aftaná. - Í fyrstuni drakk eg bert, tá okkurt serligt var á skránni, men tað var nokk so skjótt, at eg byrjaði at drekka øl heima við hús. Eg gekk jú heima allan dagin og hevði tað ikki so gott. Tá ein tíð varð farin, varð ølin býtt um við sjussar, sigur Sigri... |
In 1989 this no longer worked. The family made demands that if she did not go into treatment, the family would leave her. The result was that she went into treatment, but this did not help very much. — I don't think it helps much for the family to force someone into treatment if the addict doesn't want it themselves. I... | BLARK_translated | Í 1989 gekk hetta ikki longur. Familjan setti fram krav um, at fór hon ikki í viðgerð, so fór familjan frá henni. Úrslitið varð, at hon fór í viðgerð, men hetta hjálpti ikki serliga nógv. - Eg haldi ikki, at tað nyttar so nógv, at familjan noyðir ein í viðgerð, um misnýtarin ikki vil tað sjálvur. Tað er avgerandi neyðu... |
After about three years of going on like that she didn’t have the strength anymore. - I wanted to get away from this hell before I lost everything and especially my family. I have always believed in God deep down and I knew that I was living a dirty life. So it often happened that I was afraid of being lost. I was afra... | BLARK_translated | Tá umleið trý ár vóru gingin á henda hátt orkaði hon ikki meira. - Eg vildi sleppa burtur úr hesum helviti, áðrenn eg misti alt og serliga familjuna. Eg havi altíð trúð á Guð innast inni og eg visti, at eg livdi eitt skitið lív. Tað kom tí ofta fyri, at eg var bangin fyri at fara fortapt. Eg var bangin fyri, at Guð fór... |
Sigrid says that this time she really wanted to get away from the addiction. "I was afraid to go into treatment. I was a lonely woman and it was just before Christmas, but I had decided that enough was enough," she says. Sigrid remembers that immediately when she arrived at the Blue Cross home, she was very well receiv... | BLARK_translated | Sigrid sigur, at hesaferð vildi hon veruliga sleppa burturúr misnýtsluni. - Eg var bangin fyri at fara í viðgerð. Eg var einsamøll kvinna og tað var beint undan jólum, men eg hevði avgjørt, at nú var nóg mikið, sigur hon. Sigrid minnist, at beinanvegin, tá hon kom inn á Blákrossheimið, varð hon sera væl móttikin. - Eg ... |
Sigrid believes that many who come out of treatment and want to be sober do too much for the family, while they forget themselves. - You are responsible for your own life. Therefore it is important that you first think about yourself, that you yourself are happy and satisfied and that your self-worth and self-confidenc... | BLARK_translated | Sigrid heldur, at nógv sum koma úr viðgerð og ynskja at verða edrú gera ov nógv fyri familjuna, meðan tey gloyma seg sjálvan. - Tú hevur ábyrgd av tínum lívi. Tí er umráðandi at tú fyrst hugsar um teg sjálvan, at tú sjálvur ert glaður og nøgdur og at sjálvsvirðið og sjálvsálitið er í lagi, áðrenn tú kanst hugsa um fami... |
In 1995 Sigrid accepted personal faith in Jesus Christ and since then she has not drunk. "I am very happy that I got Jesus into my life. He is the best friend in life and the best thing that can happen to a person. I know well that people can become dry without Jesus, but Jesus is by far the best solution for the bottl... | BLARK_translated | Í 1995 tók Sigrid við persónligari trúgv á Jesus Kristus og síðan tá hevur hon ikki drukkið. - Eg eri sera glað fyri, at eg fekk Jesus inn í mítt lív. Hann er tann besti vinurin í lívinum og er tað besta, sum kann henda eini menniskju. Eg veit væl, at menniskju kunnu verða turrløgd uttan Jesus, men Jesus er so avgjørt ... |
A servant of the Lord recounts this gripping event from his service to God: | BLARK_translated | Ein Harrans tænari sigur frá hesari hugtakandi hending frá sínum gerningi fyri Gud: |
While we were talking, he told me that God himself had several times called him so seriously that he had understood that now it must be; but he had always pushed it away again. The first time the horses, which were harnessed to a heavy work wagon that he was driving, became frightened, and they ran away in a frenzy. He... | BLARK_translated | Meðan vit tosaðu saman, segði hann mær, at Gud sjálvur fleiri ferðir hevði kallað so álvarsliga á hann, at hann hevði skilt, at nú mátti tað vera; men altíð hevði hann skumpað tað frá sær aftur. Fyrstu ferð vórðu hestarnir, sum vóru spentir fyri ein tungan arbeiðsvogn, sum hann koyrdi, blivnir stygdir, og teir runnu av... |
When he regained consciousness, he felt extremely miserable and weak and did not have the strength to move. Shortly afterwards he heard early the familiar sound of a train approaching, and when he turned his head a little, he saw, terrified, the locomotive’s doors quite clearly somewhat away from him. | BLARK_translated | Tá ið hann fekk vitið aftur, føldi hann seg ógvuliga ússaligan og veikan og orkaði ikki at flyta seg úr stað. Beint aftaná hoyrdi hann tíðiliga tað kenda ljóðið av einum toki, sum nærkaðist, og tá ið hann snaraði høvdinum eitt sindur, sá hann ræðslusligin heilt skilliga lyktirnar á lokomotivinum nakað burtur frá sær. |
All this this man told me, and then he ended with these words: "On all these occasions I had a certain feeling that God was calling me and wanted me to turn back. It has not happened yet; but I will undoubtedly do it one day." | BLARK_translated | Alt hetta segði hesin maður mær, og so endaði hann við hesum orðunum: "Allar hesar ferðirnar hevði eg eina vissa fatan av, at Gud kallaði á meg og vildi hava meg at venda um. Enn er tað ikki hent; men eg geri tað óivað einaferð." |
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts. | BLARK_translated | Tí er tað eins og heilagi andin sigur: Í dag, um tit hoyra rødd hansara, tá forherðið ikki hjørtu tykkara." Hebr. 3,7-8. |
Dagens Nyheder writes that more and more Swedes are becoming ill because of stress. In the last two years the number of illnesses caused by too high work pressure, too large workloads and harassment at workplaces has almost doubled. The number has increased especially among women. Men most often develop heart problems ... | BLARK_translated | Dagens Nyheder skrivar, at alt fleiri sviar gerast sjúkir vegna strongd.

Stavanger Aftenblad writes that when mothers and fathers drink a lot, there is a high likelihood that their children will also drink a lot. This is shown by new studies in Rogaland in Norway, where people aged 40–43 in some selected municipalities were asked about their addictions. The outcome may indicate that childre... | BLARK_translated | Stavanger aftenblad skrivar, at tá mamma og pápi drekka nógv, er stórur møguleiki fyri at børn teirra eisini fara at drekka nógv. Hetta vísa nýggjar kanningar í Rogalandi í Noregi, har fólk í aldrinum 40 - 43 ár í nøkrum útvaldum kommunum vórðu spurd um teirra rúsvanar. Úrslitið kann benda á, at børn læra av rúsvanunum... |
Many of those who visit here have no housing at all. Others come here as needed, for example when the wife has kicked the husband out, and also several of those who live in shared housing but then fall out of it, says Niels Edvard Olsen, manager of the Salvation Army shelter, among other things in an interview with Blá... | BLARK_translated | Nógv av teimum, ið vitja her, hava ongan bústað yvirhøvur. Onnur koma her eftir tørvi t.d. tá konan hevur blakað mannin út og so koma eisini fleiri av teimum, sum búgva í búfelagsskapum, men sum detta útí aftur, sigur Niels Edvard Olsen, leiðari á herberginum hjá Frelsunarherinum m.a. í samrøðu við Blákrossblaðið. |
For some time the Salvation Army has had a shelter in Tórshavn. One day recently the Blue Cross magazine stopped by to inquire further about this and there we met the appointed leader, Niels Edvard Olsen, and had a chat with him. First we asked him when they started with this shelter? | BLARK_translated | Í eina tíð hevur Frelsunarherurin havt eitt herberg í Tórshavn. Ein dagin herfyri var Blákrossblaðið framvið, fyri at fregnast nærri um hetta og har hittu vit setta leiðaran, Niels Edvard Olsen, og fingu eitt prát við hann. Fyrst spurdu vit hann, nær tey byrjaðu við hesum herbergi? |
Those who come to the shelter are mostly substance abusers of various kinds. Many of those who visit here have no housing whatsoever. Others come here out of need—for example when the woman has kicked the man out—and several of those who live in shared accommodations but fall out of them also come, says Niels. He goes ... | BLARK_translated | Tey, sum koma í herbergið, eru fyri tað mesta rúsmisnýtarar av ymiskum slag. - Nógv av teimum, ið vitja her, hava ongan bústað yvirhøvur. Onnur koma her eftir tørvi t.d. tá konan hevur blakað mannin út og so koma eisini fleiri av teimum, sum búgva í búfelagsskapum, men sum detta útí aftur, sigur Niels. Hann sigur víðar... |
Those who come into the room are substance abusers. But it varies greatly what kind of abuse they are tied to. — It’s not only alcohol abusers who come here. Many are pill abusers and there are also several who are addicted to hard drugs, says Niels. He goes on to say that those who are drug addicts are harder to deal ... | BLARK_translated | Tey, sum koma inn í herbergið eru misnýtarar. Men tað er sera ymiskt, hvat fyri misnýtslu tey eru bundin av. - Tað eru ikki bara brennivíns misnýtarar, ið koma her. Nógv eru tablettmisnýtarar og eisini eru fleiri, ið eru bundin av harðari stoffum, sigur Niels. Hann heldur víðari, at tey, ið eru stoffmisnýtarar eru verr... |
Our network in Albania became a congregation in Tirana. Every day we were in contact with them and consulted about the selection of goods according to a wish list, at the top of which were bandages, pads and new underwear — and quick help is double help, was our conviction. | BLARK_translated | Samband okkara í Albania gjørdist ein samkoma í Tirana. Hvønn dag høvdu vit samband við tey og ráðførdu okkum um vøruúrval eftir einum ynskilista, har ovast stóðu blæður, bind og nýggj undirklæði - og skjót hjálp er dupult hjálp, var okkara sannføring. |
We had the opportunity to visit a refugee camp. It gave a good insight into some lives that we will remember for the rest of our lives. There were women sitting alone with children, elderly people without family, small children without parents. But there were also some who had made it through the border crossings with ... | BLARK_translated | Vit fingu høvi at vitja eina flóttarfólkalegu. Hetta gav gott innlit í nakrar mannalagnur, sum vit minnast fyri lívið. Har vóru kvinnur, sum sótu einsamallar við børnum, gomul fólk uttan familju, smá børn uttan foreldur. Men eisini vóru nøkur komin ígjøgnum marknaðarliðini við nærum allari familju sínari. |
Everyone was glad to receive gifts from the Faroes and had difficulty understanding that Christian people would give gifts to Muslims. It was more than they had expected, and they thanked us as warmly as they could. This opened the hearts of some, who accepted the Christian faith while they were refugees in Albania. In... | BLARK_translated | Øll vóru fegin um at fáa gávur úr Føroyum og skiltu illa, at kristin fólk geva muslimum gávur. Tað var meira enn tey høvdu væntað, og takkaðu so hjartaliga, sum tey kundu. Hetta opnaði hjartað hjá nøkrum, sum tóku við kristnari trúgv, meðan tey vóru flóttarfólk í Albania. Í flóttarfólkaleguni fingu vit boðið serstakt k... |
“No,” the young man replied, “I am a teetotaler and drink neither weak beer nor anything stronger.” | BLARK_translated | Nei," svaraði hesin ungi aftur, "eg eri fráhaldsmaður og drekki hvørki veikt øl ella tað, ið sterkari er." |
"We don't have a foreman here at the workplace," the foreman replied. | BLARK_translated | Vit hava ongan fráhaldsmann her á arbeiðplássinum," svaraði arbeiðsformaðurin aftur. |
“Yes, as long as I work here, you have one,” the bold one answered back. | BLARK_translated | Jú, so leingi eg arbeiði her, hava tit ein," svaraði hin djarvliga aftur. |
“You must have the beer, whether it’s kept inside or outside,” the chairman snapped angrily. | BLARK_translated | Ølið skalt tú hava, um tað so blívur innvendiga ella útvendiga," svaraði formaðurin ilskur. |
“When I came here this morning, I was in clean clothes. You may soil the clothes; but you shall not be allowed to soil my character,” said the young man, determined in his tone. | BLARK_translated | Tá ið eg kom her í morgun, var eg í reinum klæðum. Klæðini kanst tú dálka; men karakter mín skalt tú ikki sleppa at dálka," segði hin ungi maðurin avgjørdur á málinum. |
It would be good if we had many young people of this kind, who dare to go against the tide and take a determined stand, even if they are partly alone, because “no” can certainly also be a positive word. | BLARK_translated | Gævi satt, at vit høvdu nógvar ungdómar av hasum slagnum, sum tora at reka ímóti streyminum og taka eina avgjørda støðu, um tey so eru einsamøll í parti, tí " nei" kann avgjørt eisini vera eitt positivt orð. |
It is Josefina Strøm-Nielsen who is telling about the work of the Home Mission in Tvøroyri and Trongisvágur. She describes it as follows: | BLARK_translated | Tað er Josefina Strøm-Nielsen, sum sigur frá virkinum hjá Heimamissiónini á Tvøroyri og í Trongisvági. Hon greiðir soleiðis frá: |
I remember well when Blue Cross meetings began to be held in Tvøroyri. It was Pauli Nolsøe, Pauli of Tangan, who managed to arrange this. There is a special story about him. He was married to a merchant's daughter from Trongisvágur named Jetta. He himself was originally from Garður in Trongisvágur. | BLARK_translated | Eg minnist væl, tá ið byrjað varð at halda blákrossmøtir á Tvøroyri. Tað var Pauli Nolsøe, Pauli á Tanganum, ið fekk hetta í lag. Tað er ein serlig søga um hann. Hann var giftur við eini keypmansdóttur úr Trongisvági, ið æt Jetta. Sjálvur var hann ættaður úr Garði í Trongisvági. |
Pauli had a merchant business where they also sold spirits, and he himself came to use a lot of the wet stuff. A cousin of my mother, a young lad, was a shop assistant with him. | BLARK_translated | Pauli hevði eitt keypmansvirki, har ið tey eisini seldu brennivín, og sjálvur kom hann at nýta nógv av tí váta slagnum. Eitt systkinabarn móður mína, ein blaðungur drongur, var krambakallur hjá honum. |
So it was the day that had been so much talked about in Tvøroyri. Pauli sat in the shop at night in his drunkenness. He was so very good to Jetta, the woman, even though he was so fallen. | BLARK_translated | So var tað dagurin, ið so nógv hevur verið tosað um á Tvøroyri. Pauli sat um náttina í krambúðini í fyllskapi sínum. Hann var so ógvuliga góður við Jettu, konuna, hóast hann var so forfallin. |
So he woke up, and he was so shaken that when the shopkeeper came down to the shop in the morning, Pauli had not gone to bed. He therefore says to him: | BLARK_translated | So vaknaði hann, og hann var so skakaður, at tí ið krambakallurin kemur oman í handilin um morgunin, var Pauli ikki farin í song. Hann sigur tí við hann: |
"From this day I will no longer sell spirits!" And then he asked that young boy to carry everything away. And so he went with one barrel in front and another behind down to the sea. And the smell of the spirits was noticed in the village for several days. Bottles of various kinds went the same way. The other believed t... | BLARK_translated | Frá hesum degi selji eg ikki meira brennivín!" Og so biður hann henda unga drongin koyra alt burtur. Og so fór hann við einari tunnuni fyri og aðrari eftir oman á sjógvin. Og roykurin av brennivíninum kendist í fleiri dagar í bygdini. Eisini fløskur av ymiskum slagi fóru sama vegin. Hin trúði, at keypmaðurin gjørdi tað... |
No, this is my serious one. You must do it, because I won't sell any more liquor! | BLARK_translated | Nei, hetta er álvara mítt. Tú skalt gera tað, tí eg selji ikki meiri brennivín!" Hann vildi sleppa har, sum Jetta fór. |
But be that as it may, Pauli became a converted man and went to work for the Blue Cross. There he gave his testimony. He was a good speaker and very fond of the Bible. | BLARK_translated | Men hvussu var og ikki, Pauli gjørdist ein umvendur maður og fór at arbeiða hjá Bláa Krossi. Har bar hann so fram vitnisburð sín. Hann var góður talari og sera bíbliukønur. |
I walked like a little girl the quarter of the way out to Tvøroyri. It was in the community hall; they had Blue Cross meetings. They were good meetings. They read a lesson and sang from the Blue Cross book. | BLARK_translated | Eg gekk sum ein smágenta tann fjórðingsvegin út á Tvøroyri. Tað varð í felagshúsinum, tey høvdu blákross fundirnar. Tað vóru góð møtir. Tey lósu ein lestur og sungu úr blákross bókini." |
Regin also doesn’t think that drinking alcohol in small amounts greatly harms the performance of athletes, but when it comes to larger quantities it’s wrong. - When I have sometimes been out in town, I can feel it on my body long afterwards. Drinking larger amounts of alcohol is therefore definitely not good for my per... | BLARK_translated | Regin heldur ikki, at rúsdrekka í smáum nøgdum skaðar avrikið hjá ítróttarfólki tað heilt stóra, men tá talan er um størri nøgdir er galið. - Tá eg onkuntíð havi verið í býnum, kann eg merkja hetta á mínum kroppi leingi eftir. Rúsdrekka í størri nøgdum, er tí als ikki gott fyri mítt avrik og tað haldi eg, at ein og hvø... |
After that day this man and his wife had one wish: to help people who were suffering from alcohol. | BLARK_translated | Eftir henda dag høvdu hesin maðurin og kona hansara eitt ynski: at hjálpa menniskjum, sum lógu undir fyri alkoholi. |
So far there is no research indicating that teaching children to drink is the right way to go. | BLARK_translated | Higartil finst eingin kanning, ið bendir á, at tað at læra børn at drekka er rætti vegurin at |
walk. On the contrary, there are many scientific studies that warn against such | BLARK_translated | ganga. Tvørturímóti finnast nógvar vísindaligar kanningar, ið ávarða ímóti slíkum |
procedures. Scientific studies in Sweden and Norway show quite clearly that those children who | BLARK_translated | framferðarhátti. Vísindaligar kanningar í Svøríki og Noregi vísa púra greitt, at tey børn, sum |
start drinking early at home in the household and with their parents, they are the ones who drink the most | BLARK_translated | byrja tíðliga at drekka heima við hús hjá og saman við foreldrunum, eru tey, ið drekka mest |
Well-meaning parents are therefore completely wrong if they want to teach their children to drink by doing | BLARK_translated | Vælmeint foreldur fara sostatt púra skeiv, um tey vilja læra børnini at drekka, við at gera |
this with alcohol naturally and openly at home. Apparently the children perceive | BLARK_translated | hetta við rúsdrekka nátúrligt og opið heima við hús. Eftir øllum at døma uppfata børnini |
adult life. The result can then be that these later become heavy users of | BLARK_translated | vaksnamannalívinum. Úrslitið kann tá verða, at hesi seinni verða stórbrúkarar av |

It seems as if most Faroese people want to use alcoholic beverages often or rarely, a lot or | BLARK_translated | Tað tykist sum um flestu føroyingar ynskja at nýta rúsdrekka ofta ella sjáldan, nógv ella |
small. They simultaneously wish that a so-called measurement system should become the concern of the ordinary | BLARK_translated | lítið. Hesi ynskja samstundis, at eitt sokallað mátahald eigur at verða málið fyri hin vanliga |
the Faroese woman. Didactically (pedagogically) and as a role model, this is extremely disappointing | BLARK_translated | føroyingin. Frálæruliga (pædagogiskt) og fyrimyndarliga, er hetta ein ógvuliga vánaligur |
procedure/behavior, because no one can say where the limit lies and what is too much or too little. | BLARK_translated | framferðarháttur, tí eingin kann siga hvar markið gongur og hvat er ov nógv ella ov lítið. |
The only thing one can be sure of is that any consumption of alcoholic beverages, small or large, is dangerous. | BLARK_translated | Tað einasta ein kann vera vísur í er, at øll nýtsla av rúsdrekka, lítil ella stór, er vandamikil, |
harmful and can create immeasurable problems for the individual and those concerned. | BLARK_translated | skaðilig og kann skapa ómetaligar trupulleikar fyri hin einstaka og tey avvarðandi. |
Therefore we strongly recommend people not to teach children to drink, but rather not to teach them to | BLARK_translated | Tí vilja vit so staðiliga mæla fólki frá at læra børnini at drekka, men heldur læra tey ikki at |
drink. See also letters to the editor elsewhere in the paper about the same subject. | BLARK_translated | drekka. Sí eisini lesarabræv aðrastaðni í blaðnum um sama evnið. |
The most important thing for those involved is to give the abuser responsibility, so that | BLARK_translated | Tað mest týdningarmesta hjá teimum avvarðandi er at geva misnýtaranum ábyrgd, soleiðis |
that they feel threatened or afraid. So it is not enough just to be nice to them, to pamper them | BLARK_translated | at tey kenna seg hótt ella bangin. Tað nyttar altso ikki bara at vera fittur við tey, hjúkla um |
misuse just continues, said Diana Borgnýardóttir among other things in an interesting lecture at | BLARK_translated | misnýtslan bara heldur áfram, segði Diana Borgnýardóttir m.a. í áhugaverdum fyrilestri á |
On Saturday, April 18, at the national meeting of the Blue Cross, alcohol counselor Diana | BLARK_translated | Leygardagin 18. apríl, á landsstevnuni hjá Bláa Krossi, hevði alkoholráðgevin Diana |
Borgnýardóttir lecture on the topic "Children, parents and alcohol". Diana herself | BLARK_translated | Borgnýardóttir fyrilestur yvir evnið "Børn, foreldur og rúsdrekka". Diana hevur sjálv |
long experience in this area, both as a guardian of the abused and as an adviser in recent years | BLARK_translated | drúgvar royndir á hesum øki, bæði sum avvarðandi at misnýtara og sum ráðgevi seinastu |
12 years, during which she has particularly focused on the families of abusers. | BLARK_translated | 12 árini, har hon serliga hevur lagt dent á familjuna hjá misnýtarum. |
In the interesting lecture, Diana said, among other things, that for the person concerned it is very common that they | BLARK_translated | Í áhugaverda fyrilestrinum segði Diana m.a., at fyri avvarðandi er tað sera vanligt, at tey |
isolate themselves and talk about the abuser outwardly. The relatives also often feel a strong sense of guilt | BLARK_translated | isolera seg og fjala útyvir misnýtaran. Tey avvarðandi hava eisini oftast stóra skuldarkenslu |
and feel it that way, that there is something wrong with themselves, for example the wife or | BLARK_translated | og kenna tað soleiðis, at tað er nakað galið við teimum sjálvum t.d. kunnu konan ella |
belong. This also often causes those affected to lose self-confidence and for their self-esteem to decrease. | BLARK_translated | eiga. Hetta ger eisini mangan, at tey avvarðandi missa sjálvsálitið og at sjálvsvirðið minkar. |
To cover up the problem, the family often takes all the responsibility away from the abuser, who... | BLARK_translated | Fyri at fjala útyvir trupulleikan, tekur familjan ofta alla ábyrgd frá misnýtaranum, sum |
thus can continue with his drinking. One part of the cover-up is, among other things, lying. | BLARK_translated | sostatt kann halda áfram við sínum drekkaríði. Ein partur av at fjala útyvir er m.a. at lúgva. |
the person is sick, when in reality he is drunk. Another classic example is when | BLARK_translated | viðkomandi er sjúkur, tá hann í veruleikanum er fullur. Eitt annað klassiskt dømi er tá |
the abuser has been violent and given, for example, the wife a black eye, yes, so the woman lies | BLARK_translated | misnýtarin hevur verið harðligur og givið t.d. konuni blátt eyga, ja, so lýgur konan fyri |
Diana went on to say that the family is often worse than the abuser, because they are always sober and... | BLARK_translated | Diana segði víðari, at familjan mangan er verri fyri enn misnýtarin, tí tey eru jú altíð edrú og |
remember everything! On the other hand, being abused is like a child who loses everything in a trance and | BLARK_translated | minnast alt! Harafturímóti er misnýtarin sum eitt barn, ið doyvir alt burtur í einum rúsi og |
sees no problems. The relatives thus become “super humans” who must take everything | BLARK_translated | sær ongar trupulleikar. Tey avvarðandi verða soleiðis "super menniskju", ið mugu taka alla |
Relatives of addicts are very often betrayed. Diana said that many promises are made, | BLARK_translated | Avvarðandi at misnýtarum verða sera ofta svikin. Diana segði, at nógv lyfti verða givin, |
but these are also often broken and therefore such people can have great difficulty trusting | BLARK_translated | men hesi verða líka ofta brotin og tí kunnu tílík menniskju hava sera trupult við at hava álit á |
some. Relatives are also insecure, because they never know what will happen, for example if | BLARK_translated | nøkrum. Eisini eru avvarðandi ótrygg, tí tey vita ongantíð, hvat fer at henda t.d. um |
the father/mother comes home alone after a finished workday. Further Diana said that "normal" | BLARK_translated | pápin/mamman kemur full heim eftir loknan arbeiðsdag. Víðari segði Diana, at "vanlig" |
misuse homes, no they worry instead about holidays and vacations, because then it is often completely | BLARK_translated | misnýtaraheimum, nei tey stúra tvørturímóti fyri høgtíðum og ferium, tí tá er oftast heilt |
This lack of self-confidence, self-worth, with fear, insecurity, etc., often causes that | BLARK_translated | Hetta við vantandi sjálvsábyrd, sjálvsvirðið, við ótta, ótryggleika osfr. ger mangan tað, at |
Children of abusers themselves become abusers. Partly because they are not used to anything else and | BLARK_translated | børn hjá misnýtarum sjálvi gerast misnýtarar. Partvís tí tey ikki eru von við annað og |
partly to kill the pain and the problems they have had since childhood. Diana | BLARK_translated | partvís fyri sjálvi at doyva pínuna og trupulleikarnar tey hava havt frá barnsbeini av. Diana |
said that public statistics indicate that about 70% of abused children themselves become abusers! | BLARK_translated | segði, at almennu tølini siga, at uml. 70% av misnýtarabørnum sjálvi gerast misnýtarar! |
