1 Korinterne 6
1 Kan nogen af eder, naar han har Sag med en anden, føre det over sit Sind at søge Dom hos de uretfærdige, og ikke hos de hellige?
Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbour, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?
2 Eller vide I ikke, at de hellige skulle dømme Verden? og naar Verden dømmes ved eder, ere I da uværdige til at sidde til Doms i de ringeste Sager?
Or know ye not that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
3 Vide I ikke, at vi skulle dømme Engle? end sige da i timelige Ting!
Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more, things that pertain to this life?
4 Naar I da have Sager om timelige Ting, sætte I da dem til Dommere, som ere agtede for intet i Menigheden?
If then ye have to judge things pertaining to this life, do ye set them to judge who are of no account in the church?
5 Til Skam for eder siger jeg det: Er der da slet ingen viis iblandt eder, som kan dømme sine Brødre imellem?
I say [this] to move you to shame. Is it so, that there cannot be [found] among you one wise man, who shall be able to decide between his brethren,
6 Men Broder fører Sag imod Broder, og det for vantro!
but brother goeth to law with brother, and that before unbelievers?
7 Overhovedet er jo allerede det en Fejl hos eder, at I have Retssager med hverandre. Hvorfor lide I ikke hellere Uret? hvorfor lade I eder ikke hellere plyndre?
Nay, already it is altogether a defect in you, that ye have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather take wrong? why not rather be defrauded?
8 Men I gøre Uret og plyndre, og det Brødre!
Nay, but ye yourselves do wrong, and defraud, and that [your] brethren.
9 Eller vide I ikke, at uretfærdige skulle ikke arve Guds Rige? Farer ikke vild! Hverken utugtige eller Afgudsdyrkere eller Horkarle eller de, som lade sig bruge til unaturlig Utugt, eller de, som øve den,
Or know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with men,
10 eller Tyve eller havesyge eller Drankere, ingen Skændegæster, ingen Røvere skulle arve Guds Rige.
nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 Og saadanne vare I for en Del; men I lode eder aftvætte, ja, I bleve helligede, ja, I bleve retfærdiggjorte ved den Herres Jesu Navn og ved vor Guds Aand.
And such were some of you: but ye were washed, but ye were sanctified, but ye were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.
12 Alt er mig tilladt, men ikke alt er gavnligt; alt er mig tilladt, men jeg skal ikke lade mig beherske af noget.
All things are lawful for me; but not all things are expedient. All things are lawful for me; but I will not be brought under the power of any.
13 Maden er for Bugen og Bugen for Maden; men Gud skal tilintetgøre baade denne og hin. Legemet derimod er ikke for Utugt, men for Herren, og Herren for Legemet;
Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall bring to nought both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body:
14 og Gud har baade oprejst Herren og skal oprejse os ved sin Kraft.
and God both raised the Lord, and will raise up us through his power.
15 Vide I ikke, at eders Legemer ere Kristi Lemmer? Skal jeg da tage Kristi Lemmer og gøre Skøgelemmer deraf? Det være langtfra!
Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? shall I then take away the members of Christ, and make them members of a harlot? God forbid.
16 Eller vide I ikke, at den, som holder sig til Skøgen, er eet Legeme med hende? „Thi de to, ‟ hedder det, „skulle blive til eet Kød.‟
Or know ye not that he that is joined to a harlot is one body? for, The twain, saith he, shall become one flesh.
17 Men den, som holder sig til Herren, er een Aand med ham.
But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
18 Flyr Utugt! Enhver Synd, som et Menneske ellers gør, er uden for Legemet; men den, som bedriver Utugt, synder imod sit eget Legeme.
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
19 Eller vide I ikke, at eders Legeme er et Tempel for den Helligaand, som er i eder, hvilken I have fra Gud, og at I ikke ere eders egne?
Or know ye not that your body is a temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have from God? and ye are not your own;
20 Thi I bleve købte dyrt; ærer derfor Gud i eders Legeme!
for ye were bought with a price: glorify God therefore in your body.
