< Romerne 15 >

1 Men vi, som ere stærke, bør bære de svages Skrøbeligheder og ikke være os selv til Behag.
Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 Enhver af os være sin Næste til Behag til det gode, til Opbyggelse.
Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.
3 Thi ogsaa Kristus var ikke sig selv til Behag; men, som der er skrevet: „Deres Forhaanelser, som haane dig, ere faldne paa mig.‟
For even Meshikha did not please himself. But, as it is written, "The insults of those who insult you fell on me."
4 Thi alt, hvad der er skrevet tilforn, det er skrevet til vor Belæring, for at vi skulle have Haabet ved Udholdenheden og Skrifternes Trøst.
For whatever things were written before were written for our instruction, that through patience and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
5 Men Udholdenhedens og Trøstens Gud give eder at være enige indbyrdes, som Kristus Jesus vil det,
Now the God of patience and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Meshikha Yeshua,
6 for at I endrægtigt med een Mund kunne prise Gud og vor Herres Jesu Kristi Fader.
that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua Meshikha.
7 Derfor tager eder af hverandre, ligesom ogsaa Kristus har taget sig af os, til Guds Ære.
Therefore accept one another, even as Meshikha also accepted you, to the glory of God.
8 Jeg siger nemlig, at Kristus er bleven Tjener for omskaarne for Guds Sanddruheds Skyld for at stadfæste Forjættelserne til Fædrene;
Now I say that Meshikha has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,
9 men at Hedningerne skulle prise Gud for hans Barmhjertigheds Skyld, som der er skrevet: „Derfor vil jeg bekende dig iblandt Hedninger og lovsynge dit Navn.‟
and that the non-Jews might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "therefore I will give praise to you among the non-Jews, and sing to your name."
10 Og atter siges der: „Fryder eder, I Hedninger, med hans Folk!‟
Again he says, "Rejoice, you nations, with his people."
11 Og atter: „Lover Herren, alle Hedninger, og alle Folkene skulle prise ham.‟
Again, "Praise the Lord, all you nations. Let all the peoples praise him."
12 Og atter siger Esajas: „Komme skal Isajs Rodskud og han, der rejser sig for at herske over Hedninger; paa ham skulle Hedninger haabe.‟
Again, Eshaya says, "There will be the root of Ishai, he who arises to rule over the peoples; in him will the nations hope."
13 Men Haabets Gud fylde eder med al Glæde og Fred, idet I tro, for at I maa blive rige i Haabet ved den Helligaands Kraft! —
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Rukha d'Qudsha.
14 Men ogsaa jeg, mine Brødre! har selv den Forvisning om eder, at I ogsaa selv ere fulde af Godhed, fyldte med al Kundskab, i Stand til ogsaa at paaminde hverandre.
I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.
15 Dog har jeg for en Del tilskrevet eder noget dristigere for at paaminde eder paa Grund af den Naade, som er given mig fra Gud
But I write the more boldly to you in part, as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,
16 til iblandt Hedningerne at være en Kristi Jesu Offertjener, der som Præst betjener Guds Evangelium, for at Hedningerne maa blive et velbehageligt Offer, helliget ved den Helligaand.
that I should be a servant of Meshikha Yeshua to the non-Jews, serving as a priest the Good News of God, that the offering up of the non-Jews might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Rukha d'Qudsha.
17 Saaledes har jeg min Ros i Kristus Jesus af min Tjeneste for Gud.
I have therefore my boasting in Meshikha Yeshua in things pertaining to God.
18 Thi jeg vil ikke driste mig til at tale om noget af det, som Kristus ikke har udført ved mig til at virke Hedningers Lydighed, ved Ord og Handling,
For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Meshikha worked through me, for the obedience of the non-Jews, by word and deed,
19 ved Tegns og Undergerningers Kraft, ved Guds Aands Kraft, saa at jeg fra Jerusalem og trindt omkring indtil Illyrien har til fulde forkyndt Kristi Evangelium;
in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Rukha of God; so that from Urishlim, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Meshikha.
20 dog saaledes, at jeg sætter min Ære i at forkynde Evangeliet ikke der, hvor Kristus er nævnet, for at jeg ikke skal bygge paa en andens Grundvold,
And in this way I desire to preach the Good News where Meshikha was not known, that I might not build on another's foundation.
21 men, som der er skrevet: „De, for hvem der ikke blev kundgjort om ham, skulle se, og de, som ikke have hørt, skulle forstaa.‟
But, as it is written, "Those who were not told about him, they will see, and those who have not heard, they will understand."
22 Derfor er jeg ogsaa de mange Gange bleven forhindret i at komme til eder.
Therefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you,
23 Men nu, da jeg ikke mere har Rum i disse Egne og i mange Aar har haft Længsel efter at komme til eder,
but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you,
24 vil jeg, naar jeg rejser til Spanien, komme til eder; thi jeg haaber at se eder paa Gennemrejsen og af eder at blive befordret derhen, naar jeg først i nogen Maade er bleven tilfredsstillet hos eder.
whenever I journey to Spain I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.
25 Men nu rejser jeg til Jerusalem i Tjeneste for de hellige.
But now, I say, I am going to Urishlim, serving the saints.
26 Thi Makedonien og Akaja have fundet Glæde i at gøre et Sammenskud til de fattige iblandt de hellige i Jerusalem.
For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Urishlim.
27 De have nemlig fundet Glæde deri, og de ere deres Skyldnere. Thi ere Hedningerne blevne delagtige i hines aandelige Goder, da ere de ogsaa skyldige at tjene dem med de timelige.
Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the non-Jewish people have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.
28 Naar jeg da har fuldbragt dette og beseglet denne Frugt for dem, vil jeg derfra drage om ad eder til Spanien.
When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.
29 Men jeg ved, at naar jeg kommer til eder, skal jeg komme med Kristi Velsignelses Fylde.
I know that, when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Meshikha.
30 Men jeg formaner eder, Brødre! ved vor Herre Jesus Kristus og ved Aandens Kærlighed til med mig at stride i eders Bønner for mig til Gud,
Now I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Yeshua Meshikha, and by the love of the Rukha, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,
31 for at jeg maa udfries fra de genstridige i Judæa, og mit Ærinde til Jerusalem maa blive de hellige kærkomment,
that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Yehuda, and that my service which I have for Urishlim may be acceptable to the saints;
32 for at jeg kan komme til eder med Glæde, ved Guds Villie, og vederkvæges med eder.
that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and together with you, find rest.
33 Men Fredens Gud være med eder alle! Amen.
Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
