1 Johannes 2
1 Mine Børn! dette skriver jeg til eder, for at I ikke skulle synde. Og dersom nogen synder, have vi en Talsmand hos Faderen, Jesus Kristus, den retfærdige,
My little children, these things write I unto you that ye may not sin. And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
2 og han er en Forsoning for vore Synder, dog ikke alene for vore, men ogsaa for hele Verdens.
and he is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.
3 Og derpaa kende vi, at vi have kendt ham, om vi holde hans Bud.
And hereby we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4 Den, som siger: „Jeg kender ham, ‟ og ikke holder hans Bud, han er en Løgner, og i ham er Sandheden ikke;
He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;
5 men den, som holder hans Ord, i ham er sandelig Guds Kærlighed fuldkommet. Derpaa kende vi, at vi ere i ham.
but whoso keepeth his word, in him verily hath the love of God been perfected. Hereby we know that we are in him:
6 Den, som siger, at han bliver i ham, han er ogsaa skyldig selv at vandre saaledes, som han vandrede.
he that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked.
7 I elskede, jeg skriver til eder ikke et nyt Bud, men et gammelt Bud, som I have haft fra Begyndelsen. Det gamle Bud er det Ord, som I have hørt.
Beloved, no new commandment write I unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning: the old commandment is the word which ye heard.
8 Og dog skriver jeg til eder et nyt Bud, hvilket er sandt i ham og i eder, thi Mørket drager bort, og det sande Lys skinner allerede.
Again, a new commandment write I unto you, which thing is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light already shineth.
9 Den, som siger, at han er i Lyset, og hader sin Broder, han er i Mørket endnu.
He that saith he is in the light and hateth his brother, is in the darkness even until now.
10 Den, som elsker sin Broder, bliver i Lyset, og der er ingen Forargelse i ham.
He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is no occasion of stumbling in him.
11 Men den, som hader sin Broder, er i Mørket og vandrer i Mørket, og han ved ikke, hvor han gaar hen, fordi Mørket har blindet hans Øjne.
But he that hateth his brother is in the darkness, and walketh in the darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.
12 Jeg skriver til eder, mine Børn! fordi eders Synder ere eder forladte for hans Navns Skyld.
I write unto you, [my] little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake.
13 Jeg skriver til eder, I Fædre! fordi I kende ham, som er fra Begyndelsen. Jeg skriver til eder, I unge! fordi I have overvundet den onde. Jeg har skrevet til eder, mine Børn! fordi I kende Faderen.
I write unto you, fathers, because ye know him who is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the evil one. I have written unto you, little children, because ye know the Father.
14 Jeg har skrevet til eder, I Fædre! fordi I kende ham, som er fra Begyndelsen. Jeg har skrevet til eder, I unge! fordi I ere stærke, og Guds Ord bliver i eder, og I have overvundet den onde.
I have written unto you, fathers, because ye know him who is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the evil one.
15 Elsker ikke Verden, ikke heller de Ting, som ere i Verden! Dersom nogen elsker Verden, er Faderens Kærlighed ikke i ham.
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 Thi alt det, som er i Verden, Kødets Lyst og Øjnenes Lyst og Livets Hoffærdighed, er ikke af Faderen, men af Verden.
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vainglory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
18 Mine Børn! det er den sidste Time, og som I have hørt, at Antikrist kommer, saaledes ere nu mange Antikrister fremtraadte; deraf kende vi, at det er den sidste Time.
Little children, it is the last hour: and as ye heard that antichrist cometh, even now have there arisen many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last hour.
19 De ere udgaaede fra os, men de vare ikke af os; thi dersom de havde været af os, da vare de blevne hos os. Dog, det var, for at det skulde blive aabenbart, at de ikke alle ere af os.
They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us: but [they went out], that they might be made manifest that they all are not of us.
20 Og I have Salvelse fra den hellige og vide alt.
And ye have an anointing from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
21 Jeg har ikke skrevet til eder, fordi I ikke vide Sandheden; men fordi I vide den og vide, at ingen Løgn er af Sandheden.
I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and because no lie is of the truth.
22 Hvem er Løgneren uden den, som nægter, at Jesus er Kristus? Denne er Antikristen, som fornægter Faderen og Sønnen.
Who is the liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, [even] he that denieth the Father and the Son.
23 Hver den, som fornægter Sønnen, har ej heller Faderen; den, som bekender Sønnen, har ogsaa Faderen.
Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that confesseth the Son hath the Father also.
24 Hvad I have hørt fra Begyndelsen, det blive i eder! Dersom det, som I have hørt fra Begyndelsen, bliver i eder, skulle ogsaa I blive i Sønnen og i Faderen.
As for you, let that abide in you which ye heard from the beginning. If that which ye heard from the beginning abide in you, ye also shall abide in the Son, and in the Father.
And this is the promise which he promised us, [even] the life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
26 Dette har jeg skrevet til eder om dem, som forføre eder.
These things have I written unto you concerning them that would lead you astray.
27 Og den Salvelse, som I fik af ham, bliver i eder, og I have ikke nødig, at nogen skal lære eder; men saaledes som hans Salvelse lærer eder alt, er det ogsaa sandt og er ikke Løgn, og som den har lært eder, skulle I blive i ham.
And as for you, the anointing which ye received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any one teach you; but as his anointing teacheth you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, ye abide in him.
28 Og nu mine Børn! bliver i ham, for at vi, naar han aabenbares, kunne have Frimodighed og ikke skulle blive til Skamme for ham ved hans Tilkommelse.
And now, [my] little children, abide in him; that, if he shall be manifested, we may have boldness, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
29 Dersom I vide, at han er retfærdig, da erkender, at hver den, som gør Retfærdighed, er født af ham.
If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one also that doeth righteousness is begotten of him.
