< Apostelenes gerninger 3 >
1 Men Peter og Johannes gik op i Helligdommen ved Bedetimen, den niende Time.
Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
2 Og en Mand, som var lam fra Moders Liv af, blev baaren frem; ham satte de daglig ved den Dør til Helligdommen, som kaldtes den skønne, for at han kunde bede dem, som gik ind i Helligdommen, om Almisse.
And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;
3 Da han saa Peter og Johannes, idet de vilde gaa ind i Helligdommen, bad han om at faa en Almisse.
Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked alms.
4 Da saa Peter tillige med Johannes fast paa ham og sagde: „Se paa os!‟
And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
5 Og han gav Agt paa dem, efterdi han ventede at faa noget af dem.
And he gave heed to them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Men Peter sagde: „Sølv og Guld ejer jeg ikke, men hvad jeg har, det giver jeg dig: I Jesu Kristi Nazaræerens Navn staa op og gaa!‟
Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have I give thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
7 Og han greb ham ved den højre Haand og rejste ham op.
And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.
8 Men straks bleve hans Ben og Ankler stærke, og han sprang op og stod og gik omkring og gik med dem ind i Helligdommen, hvor han gik omkring og sprang og lovede Gud.
And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
9 Og hele Folket saa ham gaa omkring og love Gud.
And all the people saw him walking and praising God:
10 Og de kendte ham som den, der havde siddet ved den skønne Port til Helligdommen for at faa Almisse; og de bleve fulde af Rædsel og Forfærdelse over det, som var timedes ham.
And they knew that it was he who sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened to him.
11 Medens han nu holdt fast ved Peter og Johannes, løb alt Folket rædselsslaget sammen om dem i den Søjlegang, som kaldes Salomons.
And as the lame man who was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.
12 Men da Peter saa det, talte han til Folket: „I israelitiske Mænd! Hvorfor undre I eder over dette? eller hvorfor stirre I paa os, som om vi af egen Magt eller Gudfrygtighed havde gjort, at han kan gaa?
And when Peter saw it, he answered to the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?
13 Abrahams og Isaks og Jakobs Gud, vore Fædres Gud, har herliggjort sin Tjener Jesus, hvem I prisgave og fornægtede for Pilatus, da han dømte, at han skulde løslades.
The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
14 Men I fornægtede den hellige og retfærdige og bade om, at en Morder maatte skænkes eder.
But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted to you;
15 Men Livets Fyrste sloge I ihjel, hvem Gud oprejste fra de døde, hvorom vi ere Vidner.
And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; to which we are witnesses.
16 Og i Troen paa hans Navn har hans Navn styrket denne, hvem I se og kende, og Troen, som virkedes ved ham, har givet denne hans Førlighed i Paasyn af eder alle.
And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
17 Og nu, Brødre! jeg ved, at I handlede i Uvidenhed, ligesom ogsaa eders Raadsherrer.
And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
18 Men Gud har saaledes fuldbyrdet, hvad han forud forkyndte ved alle Profeternes Mund, at hans Salvede skulde lide.
But those things, which God before had shown by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
19 Derfor fatter et andet Sind og vender om, for at eders Synder maa blive udslettede, for at Vederkvægelsens Tider maa komme fra Herrens Aasyn,
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
20 og han maa sende den for eder bestemte Kristus, Jesus,
And he shall send Jesus Christ, who before was preached to you:
21 hvem Himmelen skal modtage indtil alle Tings Genoprettelses Tider, hvorom Gud har talt ved sine hellige Profeters Mund fra de ældste Dage. (aiōn )
Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. (aiōn )
22 Moses sagde: „En Profet skal Herren eders Gud oprejse eder af eders Brødre ligesom mig; ham skulle I høre i alt, hvad han end vil tale til eder.
For Moses truly said to the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you of your brethren, like me; him shall ye hear in all things whatever he shall say to you.
23 Men det skal ske, hver Sjæl, som ikke hører den Profet, skal udryddes af Folket.‟
And it shall come to pass, that every soul, who will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
24 Men ogsaa alle Profeterne, fra Samuel af og derefter, saa mange som talte, have ogsaa forkyndt disse Dage.
Yea, and all the prophets also from Samuel and those that follow, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold these days.
25 I ere Profeternes Sønner og Sønner af den Pagt, som Gud sluttede med vore Fædre, da han sagde til Abraham: „Og i din Sæd skulle alle Jordens Slægter velsignes.‟
Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
26 For eder først har Gud oprejst sin Tjener og sendt ham for at velsigne eder, naar enhver af eder vender om fra sin Ondskab.‟
To you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away each one of you from his iniquities.
