Hebræerne 5
1 Thi hver Ypperstepræst tages iblandt Mennesker og indsættes for Mennesker til Tjenesten for Gud, for at han skal frembære baade Gaver og Slagtofre for Synder,
For every high priest taken from among men, is ordained for men in the things that appertain to God, that he may offer up gifts and sacrifices for sins:
2 som en, der kan bære over med de vankundige og vildfarende, eftersom han ogsaa selv er stedt i Skrøbelighed
Who can have compassion on them that are ignorant and that err: because he himself also is compassed with infirmity.
3 og for dens Skyld maa frembære Syndoffer, som for Folket saaledes ogsaa for sig selv.
And therefore he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.
4 Og ingen tager sig selv den Ære, men han kaldes af Gud, ligesom jo ogsaa Aron.
Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was.
5 Saaledes har ej heller Kristus tillagt sig selv den Ære at blive Ypperstepræst, men den, som sagde til ham: „Du er min Søn, jeg har født dig i Dag, ‟
So Christ also did not glorify himself, that he might be made a high priest: but he that said unto him: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
6 som han jo ogsaa siger et andet Sted: „Du er Præst til evig Tid, efter Melkisedeks Vis, ‟ (aiōn g165)
As he saith also in another place: Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedech. (aiōn g165)
7 han, som i sit Køds Dage med stærkt Raab og Taarer frembar Bønner og ydmyge Begæringer til den, der kunde frelse ham fra Døden, og blev bønhørt i sin Angest,
Who in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offering up prayers and supplications to him that was able to save him from death, was heard for his reverence.
8 og saaledes, endskønt han var Søn, lærte han Lydighed af det, han led,
And whereas indeed he was the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things which he suffered:
9 og efter at være fuldkommet blev Aarsag til evig Frelse for alle dem, som lyde ham, (aiōnios g166)
And being consummated, he became, to all that obey him, the cause of eternal salvation. (aiōnios g166)
10 idet han af Gud blev kaldt Ypperstepræst efter Melkisedeks Vis.
Called by God a high priest according to the order of Melchisedech.
11 Herom have vi meget at sige, og det er vanskeligt at forklare, efterdi I ere blevne sløve til at høre.
Of whom we have much to say, and hard to be intelligibly uttered: because you are become weak to hear.
12 Thi skønt I efter Tiden endog burde være Lærere, trænge I atter til, at man skal lære eder Begyndelsesgrundene i Guds Ord, og I ere blevne saadanne, som trænge til Mælk og ikke til fast Føde.
For whereas for the time you ought to be masters, you have need to be taught again what are the first elements of the words of God: and you are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
13 Thi hver, som faar Mælk, er ukyndig i den rette Tale, thi han er spæd;
For every one that is a partaker of milk, is unskillful in the word of justice: for he is a little child.
14 men for de fuldkomne er den faste Føde, for dem, som paa Grund af deres Erfaring have Sanserne øvede til at skelne mellem godt og ondt.
But strong meat is for the perfect; for them who by custom have their senses exercised to the discerning of good and evil.
