Filipperne 4
1 Derfor, mine Brødre, elskede og savnede, min Glæde og Krans! staar saaledes fast i Herren, I elskede!
Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
2 Evodia formaner jeg, og Syntyke formaner jeg til at være enige i Herren.
I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord.
3 Ja, jeg beder ogsaa dig, min ægte Synzygus! tag dig af dem; thi de have med mig stridt i Evangeliet, tillige med Klemens og mine øvrige Medarbejdere, hvis Navne staa i Livets Bog.
And I entreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women who laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.
4 Glæder eder i Herren altid; atter siger jeg: Glæder eder!
Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.
5 Eders milde Sind vorde kendt af alle Mennesker! Herren er nær!
Let your moderation be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
6 Værer ikke bekymrede for noget, men lader i alle Ting eders Begæringer komme frem for Gud i Paakaldelse og Bøn med Taksigelse;
Be anxious for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
7 og Guds Fred, som overgaar al Forstand, skal bevare eders Hjerter og eders Tanker i Kristus Jesus.
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
8 I øvrigt, Brødre! alt, hvad der er sandt, hvad der er ærbart, hvad der er retfærdigt, hvad der er rent, hvad der er elskeligt, hvad der har godt Lov, enhver Dyd og enhver Hæder: Lægger eder det paa Sinde!
Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think on these things.
9 Hvad I baade have lært og modtaget og hørt og set paa mig, dette skulle I gøre, og Fredens Gud skal være med eder.
Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
10 Men jeg har højlig glædet niig i Herren over, at I nu omsider ere komne til Kræfter, saa at I kunne tænke paa mit Vel, hvorpaa I ogsaa forhen tænkte, men I manglede Lejlighed.
But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; in which ye were also concerned, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Dette siger jeg ikke af Trang; thi jeg har lært at nøjes med det, jeg har.
Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatever state I am, with that to be content.
12 Jeg forstaar at være i ringe Kaar, og jeg forstaar ogsaa at have Overflod; i alt og hvert er jeg indviet, baade i at mættes og i at hungre, baade i at have Overflod og i at lide Savn.
I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
13 Alt formaar jeg i ham, som gør mig stærk.
I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me.
14 Dog gjorde I vel i at tage Del i min Trængsel.
However ye have done well, that ye did share with my affliction.
15 Men I vide det ogsaa selv, Filippensere! at i Evangeliets Begyndelse, da jeg drog ud fra Makedonien, var der ingen Menighed, som havde Regning med mig over givet og modtaget, uden I alene.
Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.
16 Thi endog i Thessalonika sendte I mig baade en og to Gange, hvad jeg havde nødig.
For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again to my necessity.
17 Ikke at jeg attraar Gaven, men jeg attraar den Frugt, som bliver rigelig til eders Fordel.
Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
18 Nu har jeg nok af alt og har Overflod; jeg har fuldt op efter ved Epafroditus at have modtaget eders Gave, en Vellugts-Duft, et velkomment Offer, velbehageligt for Gud.
But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
19 Men min Gud skal efter sin Rigdom fuldelig give eder alt, hvad I have nødig, i Herlighed i Kristus Jesus.
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Now to God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Hilser hver hellig i Kristus Jesus.
Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me greet you.
22 De Brødre, som ere hos mig, hilse eder. Alle de hellige hilse eder, men mest de af Kejserens Hus.
All the saints greet you, chiefly they that are of Caesar’s household.
23 Den Herres Jesu Kristi Naade være med eders Aand!
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. To the Philippians written from Rome, by Epaphroditus.
