Aabenbaringen 21
1 Og jeg saa en ny Himmel og en ny Jord; thi den forrige Himmel og den forrige Jord var veget bort, og Havet var ikke mere.
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were gone; and there was no more sea.
2 Og jeg saa den hellige Stad, det nye Jerusalem, stige ned fra Himmelen fra Gud, beredet som en Brud, der er smykket for sin Brudgom.
And I saw the holy town, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, like a bride made beautiful for her husband.
3 Og jeg hørte en høj Røst fra Himmelen, som sagde: Se, Guds Telt er hos Menneskene, og han skal bo hos dem, og de skulle være hans Folk, og Gud selv skal være hos dem og være deres Gud.
And there came to my ears a great voice out of the high seat, saying, See, the Tent of God is with men, and he will make his living-place with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them, and be their God.
4 Og han skal aftørre hver Taare af deres Øjne, og Døden skal ikke være mere, ej heller Sorg, ej heller Skrig, ej heller Pine skal være mere; thi det forrige er veget bort.
And he will put an end to all their weeping; and there will be no more death, or sorrow, or crying, or pain; for the first things have come to an end.
5 Og han, som sad paa Tronen, sagde: Se, jeg gør alle Ting nye. Og han siger til mig: Skriv; thi disse Ord ere troværdige og sande.
And he who is seated on the high seat said, See, I make all things new. And he said, Put it in the book; for these words are certain and true.
6 Og han sagde til mig: De ere skete. Jeg er Alfa og Omega, Begyndelsen og Enden. Jeg vil give den tørstige af Livets Vands Kilde uforskyldt.
And he said to me, It is done. I am the First and the Last, the start and the end. I will freely give of the fountain of the water of life to him who is in need.
7 Den, som sejrer, skal arve dette, og jeg vil være hans Gud, og han skal være min Søn.
He who overcomes will have these things for his heritage; and I will be his God, and he will be my son.
8 Men de fejge og utro og vederstyggelige og Morderne og de utugtige og Troldkarlene og Afgudsdyrkerne og alle Løgnerne, deres Lod skal være i Søen, som brænder med Ild og Svovl; dette er den anden Død. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
But those who are full of fear and without faith, the unclean and takers of life, those who do the sins of the flesh, and those who make use of evil powers or who give worship to images, and all those who are false, will have their part in the sea of ever-burning fire which is the second death. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
9 Og en af de syv Engle, som havde de syv Skaaler, der vare fulde af de syv sidste Plager, kom og talte med mig og sagde: Kom, jeg vil vise dig Bruden, Lammets Hustru.
And one of the seven angels who had the seven vessels in which were the seven last punishments, came and said to me, Come here, and see the bride, the Lamb's wife.
10 Og han førte mig i Aanden hen paa et stort og højt Bjerg og viste mig den hellige Stad, Jerusalem, stigende ned fra Himmelen fra Gud
And he took me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and let me see the holy town Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 med Guds Herlighed. Dens Glans var som den kostbareste Sten, som krystalklar Jaspissten.
Having the glory of God: and her light was like a stone of great price, a jasper stone, clear as glass:
12 Den havde en stor og høj Mur; den havde tolv Porte og over Portene tolv Engle og paaskrevne Navne, hvilke ere Israels Børns tolv Stammers;
She had a wall great and high, with twelve doors, and at the doors twelve angels; and names on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
13 mod Øst tre Porte og mod Nord tre Porte og mod Syd tre Porte og mod Vest tre Porte.
And on the east were three doors; and on the north three doors; and on the south three doors; and on the west three doors.
14 Og Stadens Mur havde tolv Grundstene, og paa dem Lammets tolv Apostles tolv Navne.
And the wall of the town had twelve bases, and on them the twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.
15 Og han, som talte med mig, havde en Maalestok, et Guldrør, for at han skulde maale Staden og dens Porte og dens Mur.
And he who was talking with me had a gold measuring-rod to take the measure of the town, and of its doors, and its wall.
16 Og Staden ligger i Firkant, og dens Længde er lige saa stor som Bredden. Og han maalte Staden med Røret: Tolv Tusinde Stadier; dens Længde, Bredde og Højde ere lige.
And the town is square, as wide as it is long; and he took the measure of the town with the rod, one thousand and five hundred miles: it is equally long and wide and high.
17 Og han maalte dens Mur, hundrede og fire og fyrretyve Alen, efter Menneskemaal, hvilket er Englemaal.
And he took the measure of its wall, one hundred and forty-four cubits, after the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.
18 Og dens Murværk var Jaspis, og Staden var rent Guld, lig det rene Glar.
And the building of its wall was of jasper, and the town was clear gold, clear as glass.
19 Stadmurens Grundstene vare prydede med alle Haande Ædelstene: Den første Grundsten var Jaspis, den anden Safir, den tredje Kalkedon, den fjerde Smaragd,
The bases of the wall of the town had ornaments of all sorts of beautiful stones. The first base was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;
20 den femte Sardonyks, den sjette Sarder, den syvende Krysolit, den ottende Beryl, den niende Topas, den tiende Krysopras, den ellevte Hyacint, den tolvte Ametyst.
The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
21 Og de tolv Porte vare tolv Perler, hver af Portene var af een Perle, og Stadens Gade var rent Guld som gennemsigtigt Glar.
And the twelve doors were twelve pearls; every door was made of one pearl; and the street of the town was clear gold, as clear as glass.
22 Og jeg saa intet Tempel i den; thi dens Tempel er Herren, Gud, den almægtige, og Lammet.
And I saw no Temple there; because the Lord God, the Ruler of all, and the Lamb are its Temple.
23 Og Staden trænger ikke til Sol eller Maane til at skinne for den; thi Guds Herlighed oplyste den, og Lammet var dens Lys.
And the town has no need of the sun, or of the moon, to give it light: for the glory of God did make it light, and the light of it is the Lamb.
24 Og Folkeslagene skulle vandre i dens Lys, og Jordens Konger bringe deres Herlighed til den,
And the nations will go in its light: and the kings of the earth will take their glory into it.
25 og dens Porte skulle ikke lukkes om Dagen; thi Nat skal ikke være der,
And the doors of it will never be shut by day (for there is no night there):
26 og de skulle bringe Folkeslagenes Herlighed og Ære til den.
And the glory and honour of the nations will come into it:
27 Og intet urent skal komme ind i den, ej heller nogen, som øver Vederstyggelighed og Løgn; kun de, som ere skrevne i Lammets Livets Bog.
And nothing unclean may come into it, or anyone whose works are cursed or false; but only those whose names are in the Lamb's book of life.
