Apostelenes gerninger 14
1 Men det skete i Ikonium, at de sammen gik ind i Jødernes Synagoge og talte saaledes, at en stor Mængde, baade af Jøder og Grækere, troede.
And it came to pass in Iconium, that they did enter together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spake, so that there believed both of Jews and Greeks a great multitude;
2 Men de Jøder, som vare genstridige, ophidsede Hedningernes Sind og satte ondt i dem imod Brødrene.
and the unbelieving Jews did stir up and made evil the souls of the nations against the brethren;
3 De opholdt sig nu en Tid lang der og talte med Frimodighed i Herren, som gav sin Naades Ord Vidnesbyrd, idet han lod Tegn og Undere ske ved deres Hænder.
long time, indeed, therefore, did they abide speaking boldly in the Lord, who is testifying to the word of His grace, and granting signs and wonders to come to pass through their hands.
4 Men Mængden i Byen blev uenig, og nogle holdt med Jøderne, andre med Apostlene.
And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews, and some with the apostles,
5 Men da der blev et Opløb, baade af Hedningerne og Jøderne med samt deres Raadsherrer, for at mishandle og stene dem,
and when there was a purpose both of the nations and of the Jews with their rulers to use [them] despitefully, and to stone them,
6 og de fik dette at vide, flygtede de bort til Byerne i Lykaonien, Lystra og Derbe, og til det omliggende Land,
they having become aware, did flee to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and to the region round about,
7 og der forkyndte de Evangeliet.
and there they were proclaiming good news.
8 Og i Lystra sad der en Mand, som var kraftesløs i Fødderne, lam fra Moders Liv, og han havde aldrig gaaet.
And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in the feet, was sitting, being lame from the womb of his mother — who never had walked,
9 Han hørte Paulus tale; og da denne fæstede Øjet paa ham og saa, at han havde Tro til at frelses, sagde han med høj Røst:
this one was hearing Paul speaking, who, having stedfastly beheld him, and having seen that he hath faith to be saved,
10 „Staa ret op paa dine Fødder!‟ Og han sprang op og gik omkring.
said with a loud voice, 'Stand up on thy feet upright;' and he was springing and walking,
11 Men da Skarerne saa, hvad Paulus havde gjort, opløftede de deres Røst og sagde paa Lykaonisk: „Guderne ere i menneskelig Skikkelse stegne ned til os.‟
and the multitudes having seen what Paul did, did lift up their voice, in the speech of Lycaonia, saying, 'The gods, having become like men, did come down unto us;'
12 Og de kaldte Barnabas Zeus, men Paulus Hermes, fordi han var den, som førte Ordet.
they were calling also Barnabas Zeus, and Paul Hermes, since he was the leader in speaking.
13 Men Præsten ved Zeustemplet, som var uden for Byen, bragte Tyre og Kranse hen til Portene og vilde ofre tillige med Skarerne.
And the priest of the Zeus that is before their city, oxen and garlands unto the porches having brought, with the multitudes did wish to sacrifice,
14 Men da Apostlene, Barnabas og Paulus, hørte dette, sønderreve de deres Klæder og sprang ind i Skaren,
and having heard, the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having rent their garments, did spring into the multitude, crying
15 raabte og sagde: „I Mænd! hvorfor gøre I dette? Vi ere ogsaa Mennesker, lige Kaar undergivne med eder, og vi forkynde eder Evangeliet om at vende om fra disse tomme Ting til den levende Gud, som har gjort Himmelen og Jorden og Havet og alt, hvad der er i dem;
and saying, 'Men, why these things do ye? and we are men like-affected with you, proclaiming good news to you, from these vanities to turn unto the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all the things in them;
16 han, som i de forbigangne Tider lod alle Hedningerne vandre deres egne Veje,
who in the past generations did suffer all the nations to go on in their ways,
17 ihvorvel han ikke lod sig selv være uden Vidnesbyrd, idet han gjorde godt og gav eder Regn og frugtbare Tider fra Himmelen og mættede eders Hjerter med Føde og Glæde.‟
though, indeed, without witness He did not leave himself, doing good — from heaven giving rains to us, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness;'
18 Og det var med Nød og næppe, at de ved at sige dette afholdt Skarerne fra at ofre til dem.
and these things saying, scarcely did they restrain the multitudes from sacrificing to them.
19 Men der kom Jøder til fra Antiokia og Ikonium, og de overtalte Skarerne og stenede Paulus og slæbte ham uden for Byen i den Tro, at han var død.
And there came thither, from Antioch and Iconium, Jews, and they having persuaded the multitudes, and having stoned Paul, drew him outside of the city, having supposed him to be dead;
20 Men da Disciplene omringede ham, stod han op og gik ind i Byen. Og den næste Dag gik han med Barnabas bort til Derbe.
and the disciples having surrounded him, having risen he entered into the city, and on the morrow he went forth with Barnabas to Derbe.
21 Og da de havde forkyndt Evangeliet i denne By og vundet mange Disciple, vendte de tilbage til Lystra og Ikonium og Antiokia
Having proclaimed good news also to that city, and having discipled many, they turned back to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,
22 og styrkede Disciplenes Sjæle og paamindede dem om at blive i Troen og om, at vi maa igennem mange Trængsler indgaa i Guds Rige.
confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting to remain in the faith, and that through many tribulations it behoveth us to enter into the reign of God,
23 Men efter at de i hver Menighed havde udvalgt Ældste for dem, overgave de dem under Bøn og Faste til Herren, hvem de havde givet deres Tro.
and having appointed to them by vote elders in every assembly, having prayed with fastings, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.
24 Og de droge igennem Pisidien og kom til Pamfylien.
And having passed through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia,
25 Og da de havde talt Ordet i Perge, droge de ned til Attalia.
and having spoken in Perga the word, they went down to Attalia,
26 Og derfra sejlede de til Antiokia, hvorfra de vare blevne overgivne til Guds Naade til den Gerning, som de havde fuldbragt.
and thence did sail to Antioch, whence they had been given by the grace of God for the work that they fulfilled;
27 Men da de kom derhen og havde forsamlet Menigheden, forkyndte de, hvor store Ting Gud havde gjort med dem, og at han havde aabnet en Troens Dør for Hedningerne.
and having come and gathered together the assembly, they declared as many things as God did with them, and that He did open to the nations a door of faith;
28 Men de opholdt sig en ikke liden Tid sammen med Disciplene.
and they abode there not a little time with the disciples.
