Apostelenes gerninger 1
1 Den første Bog skrev jeg, o Theofilus! om alt det, som Jesus begyndte baade at gøre og lære,
I have made the former treatise, O Theophilus, of al that Jesus began to doe and teach,
2 indtil den Dag, da han blev optagen, efter at han havde givet Apostlene, som han havde udvalgt, Befaling ved den Helligaand;
Vntill the day that hee was taken vp, after that hee through the holy Ghost, had giuen commandements vnto the Apostles, whome hee had chosen:
3 for hvem han ogsaa, efter at han havde lidt, fremstillede sig levende ved mange Beviser, idet han viste sig for dem i fyrretyve Dage og talte om de Ting, der høre til Guds Rige.
To whome also he presented himselfe aliue after that he had suffered, by many infallible tokens, being seene of them by the space of fourtie daies, and speaking of those thinges which appertaine to the kingdome of God.
4 Og medens han var sammen med dem, bød han dem, at de ikke maatte vige fra Jerusalem, men skulde oppebie Faderens Forjættelse, „hvorom, ‟ sagde han, „I have hørt af mig.
And when he had gathered them together, he commanded them, that they should not depart from Hierusalem, but to waite for the promise of the Father, which sayde hee, yee haue heard of me.
5 Thi Johannes døbte med Vand; men I skulle døbes med den Helligaand om ikke mange Dage.‟
For Iohn in deede baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized with the holy Ghost within these fewe daies.
6 Som de nu vare forsamlede, spurgte de ham og sagde: „Herre! opretter du paa denne Tid Riget igen for Israel?‟
When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdome to Israel?
7 Men han sagde til dem: „Det tilkommer ikke eder at kende Tider eller Timer, hvilke Faderen har fastsat i sin egen Magt.
And hee saide vnto them, It is not for you to know the times, or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his owne power,
8 Men I skulle faa Kraft, naar den Helligaand kommer over eder; og I skulle være mine Vidner baade i Jerusalem og i hele Judæa og Samaria og indtil Jordens Ende.‟
But yee shall receiue power of the holy Ghost, when he shall come on you: and ye shalbe witnesses vnto me both in Hierusalem and in all Iudea, and in Samaria, and vnto the vttermost part of the earth.
9 Og da han havde sagt dette, blev han optagen, medens de saa derpaa, og en Sky tog ham bort fra deres Øjne.
And when he had spoken these things, while they behelde, he was taken vp: for a cloude tooke him vp out of their sight.
10 Og som de stirrede op imod Himmelen, medens han for bort, se, da stode to Mænd hos dem i hvide Klæder,
And while they looked stedfastly towarde heauen, as hee went, beholde, two men stoode by them in white apparell,
11 og de sagde: „I galilæiske Mænd, hvorfor staa I og se op imod Himmelen? Denne Jesus, som er optagen fra eder til Himmelen, skal komme igen paa samme Maade, som I have set ham fare til Himmelen.‟
Which also sayde, Yee men of Galile, why stande yee gasing into heauen? This Iesus which is taken vp from you into heauen, shall so come, as yee haue seene him goe into heauen.
12 Da vendte de tilbage til Jerusalem fra det Bjerg, som kaldes Oliebjerget og er nær ved Jerusalem, en Sabbatsvej derfra.
Then returned they vnto Hierusalem from the mount that is called the mount of Oliues, which is neere to Hierusalem, being from it a Sabbath daies iourney.
13 Og da de kom derind, gik de op paa den Sal, hvor de plejede at opholde sig, Peter og Johannes og Jakob og Andreas, Filip og Thomas, Bartholomæus og Matthæus, Jakob Alfæus's Søn og Simon Zelotes, og Judas, Jakobs Søn.
And when they were come in, they went vp into an vpper chamber, where abode both Peter and Iames, and Iohn, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartlemew, and Matthewe, Iames the sonne of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Iudas Iames brother.
14 Alle disse vare endrægtigt vedholdende i Bønnen tillige med nogle Kvinder og Maria, Jesu Moder, og med hans Brødre.
These all continued with one accorde in prayer and supplication with the women, and Marie the mother of Iesus, and with his brethren.
15 Og i disse Dage stod Peter op midt iblandt Brødrene og sagde, (og der var en Skare samlet paa omtrent hundrede og tyve Personer):
And in those dayes Peter stoode vp in the middes of the disciples, and sayde (nowe the nomber of names that were in one place were about an hundreth and twentie.)
16 „I Mænd, Brødre! det Skriftens Ord burde opfyldes, som den Helligaand forud havde talt ved Davids Mund om Judas, der blev Vejleder for dem, som grebe Jesus;
Yee men and brethren, this scripture must needes haue beene fulfilled, which the holy Ghost by the mouth of Dauid spake before of Iudas, which was guide to them that tooke Iesus.
17 thi han var regnet iblandt os og havde faaet denne Tjenestes Lod.
For hee was nombred with vs, and had obteined fellowship in this ministration.
18 Han erhvervede sig nu en Ager for sin Uretfærdigheds Løn, og han styrtede ned og brast itu, og alle hans Indvolde væltede ud,
He therefore hath purchased a field with the reward of iniquitie: and when he had throwen downe himselfe headlong, hee brast asunder in the middes, and all his bowels gushed out.
19 hvilket ogsaa er blevet vitterligt for alle dem, som bo i Jerusalem, saa at den Ager kaldes paa deres eget Maal Hakeldama, det er Blodager.
And it is knowen vnto all the inhabitants of Hierusalem, in so much, that that field is called in their owne language, Aceldama, That is, the field of blood.
20 Thi der er skrevet i Psalmernes Bog: „Hans Bolig blive øde, og der være ingen, som bor i den, ‟ og: „Lad en anden faa hans Tilsynsgerning.‟
For it is written in the booke of Psalmes, Let his habitation be void, and let no man dwel therein: also, Let another take his charge.
21 Derfor bør en af de Mænd, som vare sammen med os i hele den Tid, da den Herre Jesus gik ind og gik ud hos os,
Wherefore of these men which haue companied with vs, all the time that the Lord Iesus was conuersant among vs,
22 lige fra Johannes's Daab indtil den Dag, da han blev optagen fra os, blive Vidne sammen med os om hans Opstandelse.‟
Beginning from the baptisme of Iohn vnto the day that hee was taken vp from vs, must one of them bee made a witnesse with vs of his resurrection.
23 Og de fremstillede to, Josef, som kaldtes Barsabbas med Tilnavn Justus, og Matthias.
And they presented two, Ioseph called Barsabas, whose surname was Iustus, and Matthias.
24 Og de bade og sagde: „Du Herre! som kender alles Hjerter, vis os den ene, som du har udvalgt af disse to
And they praied, saying, Thou Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shewe whether of these two thou hast chosen,
25 til at faa denne Tjenestes og Apostelgernings Plads, som Judas forlod for at gaa hen til sit eget Sted.‟
That he may take the roume of this ministration and Apostleship, from which Iudas hath gone astray, to goe to his owne place.
26 Og de kastede Lod imellem dem, og Loddet faldt paa Matthias, og han blev regnet sammen med de elleve Apostle.
Then they gaue foorth their lottes: and the lotte fell on Matthias, and hee was by a common consent counted with the eleuen Apostles.
