Hebræerne 2
1 Derfor bør vi des mere agte paa det, vi have hørt, for at vi ikke skulle rives bort.
Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things that were heard, lest perhaps we drift away.
2 Thi naar det Ord, som taltes ved Engle, blev urokket, og hver Overtrædelse og Ulydighed fik velforskyldt Løn,
For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty,
3 hvorledes skulle da vi undfly, naar vi ikke bryde os om saa stor en Frelse, som jo efter først at være bleven forkyndt ved Herren er bleven stadfæstet for os af dem, som havde hørt ham,
how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation—which at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard,
4 idet Gud vidnede med baade ved Tegn og Undere og mange Haande kraftige Gerninger og ved Meddelelse af den Helligaand efter sin Villie.
God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?
5 Thi det var ikke Engle, han underlagde den kommende Verden, om hvilken vi tale.
For he did not subject the world to come, of which we speak, to angels.
6 Men en har vidnet et Sted og sagt: „Hvad er et Menneske, at du kommer ham i Hu? eller en Menneskesøn, at du ser til ham?
But one has somewhere testified, saying, “What is man, that you think of him? Or the son of man, that you care for him?
7 Du gjorde ham en kort Tid ringere end Engle; med Herlighed og Ære kronede du ham;
You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor.
8 alle Ting lagde du under hans Fødder.‟ — Idet han nemlig underlagde ham alle Ting, undtog han intet fra at være ham underlagt. Nu se vi imidlertid endnu ikke alle Ting underlagte ham;
You have put all things in subjection under his feet.” For in that he subjected all things to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him.
9 men ham, som en kort Tid var bleven gjort ringere end Engle, Jesus, se vi paa Grund af Dødens Lidelse kronet med Herlighed og Ære, for at han ved Guds Naade maa have smagt Døden for alle.
But we see him who has been made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for everyone.
10 Thi det sømmede sig ham, for hvis Skyld alle Ting ere, og ved hvem alle Ting ere, naar han førte mange Sønner til Herlighed, da at fuldkomme deres Frelses Ophavsmand igennem Lidelser.
For it became him, for whom are all things and through whom are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
11 Thi baade den, som helliger, og de, som helliges, ere alle af een; hvorfor han ikke skammer sig ved at kalde dem Brødre,
For both he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brothers,
12 naar han siger: „Jeg vil forkynde dit Navn for mine Brødre, midt i en Menighed vil jeg lovsynge dig.‟
saying, “I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the congregation I will sing your praise.”
13 Og fremdeles: „Jeg vil forlade mig paa ham.‟ Og fremdeles: „Se, her er jeg og de Børn, som Gud har givet mig.‟
Again, “I will put my trust in him.” Again, “Behold, here I am with the children whom God has given me.”
14 Efterdi da Børnene ere delagtige i Blod og Kød, blev ogsaa han i lige Maade delagtig deri, for at han ved Døden skulde gøre den magtesløs, som har Dødens Vælde, det er Djævelen,
Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,
15 og befri alle dem, som paa Grund af Dødsfrygt vare under Trældom al deres Livs Tid.
and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16 Thi det er jo dog ikke Engle, han tager sig af, men Abrahams Sæd tager han sig af.
For most certainly, he does not give help to angels, but he gives help to the offspring of Abraham.
17 Derfor maatte han blive sine Brødre lig i alle Ting, for ‟at han kunde blive en barmhjertig og trofast Ypperstepræst over for Gud til at sone Folkets Synder.
Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like his brothers, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.
18 Thi idet han har lidt, kan han som den, der selv er fristet, komme dem til Hjælp, som fristes.
For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.
