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 I write to you, that you may not sin. Yet if any one has sinned, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Just One.
2 og han er en Forsoning for vore Synder, dog ikke alene for vore, men ogsaa for hele Verdens.
And he is a 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 by this, we know that we have known 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 who says, I have known him, and does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in this man.
5 men den, som holder hans Ord, i ham er sandelig Guds Kærlighed fuldkommet. Derpaa kende vi, at vi ere i ham.
But whoever keeps his word, truly in this man the love of God is perfected. By this 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 who says he abides in him, ought, himself, also, so 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.
Brethren, I do not write a new commandment to you; but an old commandment, which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word, which you have heard from the beginning.
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.
On the other hand, I write to you a new commandment, which is true concerning him and concerning you. For the darkness is passing away, and the light, which is true, now shines.
9 Den, som siger, at han er i Lyset, og hader sin Broder, han er i Mørket endnu.
He who says he is in the light and yet hates his brother, is in the darkness till now.
10 Den, som elsker sin Broder, bliver i Lyset, og der er ingen Forargelse i ham.
He who loves his brother, abides in the light, and there is no stumbling block to 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 who hates his brother, is in the darkness, and walks in that darkness, and does not know whither he goes; because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
12 Jeg skriver til eder, mine Børn! fordi eders Synder ere eder forladte for hans Navns Skyld.
Little children, I write to you, because your sins are forgiven you, on account of his name.
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.
Fathers, I write to you, because you have known him from the beginning. Young men, I write to you, because you have overcome the wicked one.
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.
Fathers, I have written to you, because you have known him from the beginning. Young men, I have written to you, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the wicked 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 which are in the world. If any one 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 pride of life--is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Now the world passes away, and the lust of it; be he who does the will of God, abides forever. (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.
Young children, it is the last period. And as you have heard that the antichrist comes, so, now, there are many antichrists; whence you know that it is the last period.
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 away from us, but they were not of us. For, if they had been of us, they would have abode with us; but they went away, that they might be made manifest that they were not of us.
20 Og I have Salvelse fra den hellige og vide alt.
But you have an unction from the Holy One, and 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 to you because you know not the truth, but because you know it, and that 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 a liar, if not he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is the antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.
23 Hver den, som fornægter Sønnen, har ej heller Faderen; den, som bekender Sønnen, har ogsaa Faderen.
Whoever denies the Son, does not acknowledge the Father.
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.
Therefore, let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you have heard from the beginning, abide in you; you also shall abide in the Son, and in the Father:
and this is the promise which he has promised to us, even eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Dette har jeg skrevet til eder om dem, som forføre eder.
These things I have written to you, concerning them who deceive you;
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.
but the unction which you have received from him abides in you; and you have no need that any one should teach you, unless the same unction teaches you concerning all things, and is truth, and is no lie: and as it has taught you, you will 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, little children, abide in him, that when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and may not be put to shame by 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 you know that he is righteous, you know that every one who works righteousness, has been begotten by him.
