1 Korinterne 1
1 Paulus, Jesu Kristi kaldede Apostel ved Guds Villie, og Broderen Sosthenes
PAUL, a called apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Sosthenes a brother,
2 til Guds Menighed, som er i Korinth, helligede i Kristus Jesus, hellige ifølge Kald tillige med alle dem, der paa ethvert Sted paakalde vor Herres Jesu Kristi, deres og vor Herres Navn:
to the church of God which is at Corinth, sanctified in Christ Jesus, to the called saints, with all those who invoke the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both their’s and our’s:
3 Naade være med eder og Fred fra Gud vor Fader og den Herre Jesus Kristus!
grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
4 Jeg takker min Gud altid for eder, for den Guds Naade, som blev given eder i Kristus Jesus,
I give thanks to my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which hath been given you in Christ Jesus;
5 at I ved ham ere blevne rige i alt, i al Tale og al Kundskab,
that in every thing ye have been enriched by him, in all utterance, and all knowledge;
6 ligesom Vidnesbyrdet om Kristus er blevet stadfæstet hos eder,
thus the testimony of Jesus hath been confirmed among you:
7 saa at I ikke staa tilbage i nogen Naadegave, idet I forvente vor Herres Jesu Kristi Aabenbarelse,
so that ye have not been deficient in any gift; waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ:
8 han, som ogsaa skal stadfæste eder indtil Enden som ustraffelige paa vor Herres Jesu Kristi Dag.
who shall confirm you to the end blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Trofast er Gud, ved hvem I bleve kaldede til Samfund med hans Søn, Jesus Kristus, vor Herre.
Faithful is God, by whom ye have been called into communion with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
10 Men jeg formaner eder, Brødre! ved vor Herres Jesu Kristi Navn, at I alle skulle føre samme Tale, og at der ikke maa findes Splittelser iblandt eder, men at I skulle være forenede i det samme Sind og i den samme Mening.
Now I conjure you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no schisms among you; but that ye be perfectly united together in the same mind and the same sentiment.
11 Thi det er blevet mig fortalt om eder, mine Brødre! af Kloes Husfolk, at der er Splidagtighed iblandt eder.
For I have been informed concerning you, my brethren, by those of the family of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
12 Jeg mener dette, at enhver af eder siger: Jeg hører Paulus til, og jeg Apollos, og jeg Kefas, og jeg Kristus.
Now this I observe, that one and another of you saith, I am indeed of Paul; but I of Apollos; but I of Cephas; but I am of Christ.
13 Er Kristus delt? mon Paulus blev korsfæstet for eder? eller bleve I døbte til Paulus's Navn?
Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptised into the name of Paul?
14 Jeg takker Gud for, at jeg ikke døbte nogen af eder, uden Krispus og Kajus,
I thank God that I baptised none of you, except Crispus and Gaius;
15 for at ikke nogen skal sige, at I bleve døbte til mit Navn.
that no man might say, I baptised into my own name.
16 Dog, jeg døbte ogsaa Stefanas's Hus; ellers ved jeg ikke, om jeg døbte nogen anden.
And I also baptised the household of Stephanus: besides these, I know not if I baptised any other person.
17 Thi Kristus sendte mig ikke for at døbe, men for at forkynde Evangeliet, ikke med vise Ord, for at Kristi Kors ikke skulde tabe sin Kraft.
For Christ sent me not to baptise, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of discourse, lest the cross of Christ should be slighted.
18 Thi Korsets Ord er vel for dem, som fortabes, en Daarskab, men for dem, som frelses, for os er det en Guds Kraft.
For the discourse, the subject of which is the cross, is indeed to those who perish, folly; but to us who are saved it is the power of God.
19 Thi der er skrevet: „Jeg vil lægge de vises Visdom øde, og de forstandiges Forstand vil jeg gøre til intet.“
For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the understanding of the intelligent will I make useless.”
20 Hvor er der en viis? hvor er der en skriftklog? hvor er der en Ordkæmper af denne Verden? har Gud ikke gjort Verdens Visdom til Daarskab? (aiōn g165)
Where is the sophist? where is the scribe? where is the inquisitive searcher after this world’s wisdom? hath not God turned into folly the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)
21 Thi efterdi Verden ved sin Visdom ikke erkendte Gud i hans Visdom, behagede det Gud ved Prædikenens Daarskab at frelse dem, som tro,
for since in the wisdom of God the world by its wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
22 eftersom baade Jøder kræve Tegn, og Grækere søge Visdom,
For the Jews demand a miracle, and the Greeks seek wisdom:
23 vi derimod prædike Kristus som korsfæstet, for Jøder en Forargelse og for Hedninger en Daarskab,
but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews indeed an offence, and to the Greeks folly;
24 men for selve de kaldede baade Jøder og Grækere, Kristus som Guds Kraft og Guds Visdom.
but to those who are called, whether Jews or Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25 Thi Guds Daarskab er visere end Menneskene, og Guds Svaghed er stærkere end Menneskene.
For this foolishness of God is wiser than men; and this weakness of God is stronger than men.
26 Thi ser, Brødre! paa eders Kaldelse, at I ere ikke mange vise efter Kødet, ikke mange mægtige, ikke mange fornemme;
For ye see your calling, brethren, that not many fleshly wise, not many men in power, not many men of high birth, are called:
27 men det, som var Daarskab for Verden, udvalgte Gud for at beskæmme de vise, og det, som var svagt for Verden, udvalgte Gud for at beskæmme det stærke;
but the foolish things of this world hath God elected, that he might confound the wise; and the feeble things of the world hath God elected, that he might confound the mighty;
28 og det for Verden uædle og det ringeagtede, det, som intet var, udvalgte Gud for at gøre det, som var noget, til intet,
and the ignoble things of the world, and the despicable, hath God elected, and the things that are not, to bring to nought the things which are,
29 for at intet Kød skal rose sig for Gud.
that no flesh should glory in his presence.
30 Men ud af ham ere I i Kristus Jesus, som blev os Visdom fra Gud, baade Retfærdighed og Helliggørelse og Forløsning;
But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who hath been made to us of God wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
31 for at, som der er skrevet: „Den, som roser sig, rose sig af Herren!“
that, as it is written, “He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.”
