Apostelenes gerninger 4
1 Men medens de talte til Folket, kom Præsterne og Høvedsmanden for Helligdommen og Saddukæerne over dem,
And as they were speaking to the people, the priests and captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,
2 da de harmedes over, at de lærte Folket og i Jesus forkyndte Opstandelsen fra de døde.
being distressed on account of their teaching the people and preaching by Jesus the resurrection from among [the] dead;
3 Og de lagde Haand paa dem og satte dem i Forvaring til den følgende Dag; thi det var allerede Aften.
and they laid hands on them, and put them in ward till the morrow; for it was already evening.
4 Men mange af dem, som havde hørt Ordet, troede, og Tallet paa Mændene blev omtrent fem Tusinde.
But many of those who had heard the word believed; and the number of the men had become [about] five thousand.
5 Men det skete Dagen derefter, at deres Raadsherrer og Ældste og skriftkloge forsamlede sig i Jerusalem,
And it came to pass on the morrow that their rulers and elders and scribes were gathered together at Jerusalem,
6 ligesaa Ypperstepræsten Annas og Kajfas og Johannes og Alexander og alle, som vare af ypperstepræstelig Slægt.
and Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of [the] high priestly family;
7 Og de stillede dem midt iblandt sig og spurgte: „Af hvad Magt eller i hvilket Navn have I gjort dette?”
and having placed them in the midst they inquired, In what power or in what name have ye done this?
8 Da sagde Peter, fyldt med den Helligaand, til dem: „I Folkets Raadsherrer og Ældste!
Then Peter, filled with [the] Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people and elders [of Israel],
9 Naar vi i Dag forhøres angaaende en Velgerning imod en vanfør Mand, om hvorved han er bleven helbredet,
if we this day are called upon to answer as to the good deed [done] to the infirm man, how he has been healed,
10 da skal det være eder alle og hele Israels Folk vitterligt, at ved Jesu Kristi Nazaræerens Navn, hvem I have korsfæstet, hvem Gud har oprejst fra de døde, ved dette Navn er det, at denne staar rask her for eders Øjne.
be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazaraean, whom ye have crucified, whom God has raised from among [the] dead, by him this [man] stands here before you sound [in body].
11 Han er den Sten, som blev agtet for intet af eder, I Bygningsmænd, men som er bleven til en Hovedhjørnesten.
He is the stone which has been set at nought by you the builders, which is become the corner stone.
12 Og der er ikke Frelse i nogen anden; thi der er ikke noget andet Navn under Himmelen, givet iblandt Mennesker, ved hvilket vi skulle blive frelste.”
And salvation is in none other, for neither is there another name under heaven which is given among men by which we must be saved.
13 Men da de saa Peters og Johannes's Frimodighed og kunde mærke, at de vare ulærde Mænd og Lægfolk, forundrede de sig, og de kendte dem, at de havde været med Jesus.
But seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and perceiving that they were unlettered and uninstructed men, they wondered; and they recognised them that they were with Jesus.
14 Og da de saa Manden, som var helbredet, staa hos dem, havde de intet at sige derimod.
And beholding the man who had been healed standing with them, they had nothing to reply;
15 Men de bøde dem at træde ud fra Raadet og raadførte sig med hverandre og sagde:
but having commanded them to go out of the council they conferred with one another,
16 „Hvad skulle vi gøre med disse Mennesker? thi at et vitterligt Tegn er sket ved dem, det er aabenbart for alle dem, som bo i Jerusalem, og vi kunne ikke nægte det.
saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed an evident sign has come to pass through their means is manifest to all that inhabit Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.
17 Men for at det ikke skal komme videre ud iblandt Folket, da lader os true dem til ikke mere at tale til noget Menneske i dette Navn.”
But that it be not further spread among the people, let us threaten them severely no longer to speak to any man in this name.
18 Og de kaldte dem ind og forbøde dem aldeles at tale eller lære i Jesu Navn.
And having called them, they charged [them] not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 Men Peter og Johannes svarede og sagde til dem: „Dømmer selv, om det er ret for Gud at lyde eder mere end Gud.
But Peter and John answering said to them, If it be righteous before God to listen to you rather than to God, judge ye;
20 Thi vi kunne ikke lade være at tale om det, som vi have set og hørt.”
for as for us we cannot refrain from speaking of the things which we have seen and heard.
21 Men de truede dem end mere og løslode dem, da de ikke kunde udfinde, hvorledes de skulde straffe dem, for Folkets Skyld; thi alle priste Gud for det, som var sket.
But they, having further threatened them, let them go, finding no way how they might punish them, on account of the people, because all glorified God for what had taken place;
22 Thi den Mand, paa hvem dette Helbredelsestegn var sket, var mere end fyrretyve Aar gammel.
for the man on whom this sign of healing had taken place was above forty years old.
23 Da de nu vare løsladte, kom de til deres egne og fortalte dem alt, hvad Ypperstepræsterne og de Ældste havde sagt til dem.
And having been let go, they came to their own [company], and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.
24 Men da de hørte dette, opløftede de endrægtigt Røsten til Gud og sagde: „Herre, du, som har gjort Himmelen og Jorden og Havet og alle Ting, som ere i dem,
And they, having heard [it], lifted up [their] voice with one accord to God, and said, Lord, thou art the God who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them;
25 du, som har sagt ved din Tjener Davids Mund: „Hvorfor fnyste Hedninger, og Folkeslag oplagde forfængelige Raad?
who hast said by the mouth of thy servant David, Why have [the] nations raged haughtily and [the] peoples meditated vain things?
26 Jordens Konger rejste sig, og Fyrsterne samlede sig til Hobe imod Herren og imod hans Salvede.”
The kings of the earth were there, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against his Christ.
27 Ja, de have i Sandhed forsamlet sig i denne Stad imod din hellige Tjener Jesus, hvem du har salvet, baade Herodes og Pontius Pilatus tillige med Hedningerne og Israels Folkestammer
For in truth against thy holy servant Jesus, whom thou hadst anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with [the] nations, and peoples of Israel, have been gathered together in this city
28 for at gøre det, som din Haand og dit Raad forud havde bestemt skulde ske.
to do whatever thy hand and thy counsel had determined before should come to pass.
29 Og nu, Herre! se til deres Trusler, og giv dine Tjenere at tale dit Ord med al Frimodighed,
And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings, and give to thy bondmen with all boldness to speak thy word,
30 idet du udrækker din Haand til Helbredelse, og der sker Tegn og Undere ved din hellige Tjeners Jesu Navn.”
in that thou stretchest out thy hand to heal, and that signs and wonders take place through the name of thy holy servant Jesus.
31 Og da de havde bedet, rystedes Stedet, hvor de vare forsamlede; og de bleve alle fyldte med den Helligaand, og de talte Guds Ord med Frimodighed.
And when they had prayed, the place in which they were assembled shook, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and spoke the word of God with boldness.
32 Men de troendes Mængde havde eet Hjerte og een Sjæl; og end ikke een kaldte noget af det, han ejede, sit eget; men de havde alle Ting fælles.
And the heart and soul of the multitude of those that had believed were one, and not one said that anything of what he possessed was his own, but all things were common to them;
33 Og med stor Kraft aflagde Apostlene Vidnesbyrdet om den Herres Jesu Opstandelse, og der var stor Naade over dem alle.
and with great power did the apostles give witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all.
34 Thi der var end ikke nogen trængende iblandt dem; thi alle de, som vare Ejere af Jordstykker eller Huse, solgte dem og bragte Salgssummerne
For neither was there any one in want among them; for as many as were owners of lands or houses, selling them, brought the price of what was sold
35 og lagde dem for Apostlenes Fødder; men der blev uddelt til enhver, efter hvad han havde Trang til.
and laid it at the feet of the apostles; and distribution was made to each according as any one might have need.
36 Og Josef, som af Apostlene fik Tilnavnet Barnabas, (det er udlagt: Trøstens Søn), en Levit, født paa Kypern,
And Joseph, who had been surnamed Barnabas by the apostles (which is, being interpreted, Son of consolation), a Levite, Cyprian by birth,
37 som ejede en Jordlod, solgte den og bragte Pengene og lagde dem for Apostlenes Fødder.
being possessed of land, having sold [it], brought the money and laid it at the feet of the apostles.
