Romerne 16
1 Men jeg anbefaler eder Føbe, vor Søster, som er Tjenerinde ved Menigheden i Kenkreæ,
Herewith I introduce our sister Phoebe to you, who is a servant of the Church at Cenchreae,
2 for at I maa modtage hende i Herren, som det sømmer sig de hellige, og yde hende Bistand, i hvad som helst hun maatte trænge til eder; thi ogsaa hun har været en Hjælperske for mange og for mig selv med.
that you may receive her as a fellow Christian in a manner worthy of God's people, and may assist her in any matter in which she may need help. For she has indeed been a kind friend to many, including myself.
3 Hilser Priska og Akvila, mine Medarbejdere i Kristus Jesus,
Greetings to Prisca and Aquila my fellow labourers in the work of Christ Jesus--
4 som jo for mit Liv have sat deres egen Hals i Vove, hvem ikke alene jeg takker, men ogsaa alle Hedningernes Menigheder;
friends who have endangered their own lives for mine. I am grateful to them, and not I alone, but all the Gentile Churches also.
5 og hilser Menigheden i deres Hus! Hilser Epænetus, min elskede, som er Asiens Førstegrøde for Kristus.
Greetings, too, to the Church that meets at their house. Greetings to my dear Epaenetus, who was the earliest convert to Christ in the province of Asia;
6 Hilser Maria, som har arbejdet meget for eder.
to Mary who has laboured strenuously among you;
7 Hilser Andronikus og Junias, mine Frænder og mine medfangne, som jo ere navnkundige iblandt Apostlene og tilmed have været i Kristus før mig.
and to Andronicus and Junia, my countrymen, who once shared my imprisonment. They are of note among the Apostles, and are Christians of longer standing than myself.
8 Hilser Ampliatus, min elskede i Herren!
Greetings to Ampliatus, dear to me in the Lord;
9 Hilser Urbanus, vor Medarbejder i Kristus, og Stakys, min elskede!
to Urban, our fellow labourer in Christ, and to my dear Stachys.
10 Hilser Apelles, den prøvede i Kristus. Hilser dem, som ere af Aristobulus's Hus.
Greetings to Apella, that veteran believer; and to the members of the household of Aristobulus.
11 Hilser Herodion, min Frænde! Hilser dem af Narkissus's Hus, som ere i Herren.
Greetings to my countryman, Herodion; and to the believing members of the household of Narcissus.
12 Hilser Tryfæna og Tryfosa, som arbejde i Herren. Hilser Persis, den elskede, som jo har arbejdet meget i Herren.
Greetings to those Christian workers, Tryphaena and Tryphosa; also to dear Persis, who has laboured strenuously in the Lord's work.
13 Hilser Rufus, den udvalgte i Herren, og hans og min Moder!
Greetings to Rufus, who is one of the Lord's chosen people; and to his mother, who has also been a mother to me.
14 Hilser Asynkritus, Flegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas og Brødrene hos dem!
Greetings to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and to the brethren associated with them;
15 Hilser Filologus og Julia, Nereus og hans Søster og Olympas og alle de hellige hos dem!
to Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister and Olympas, and to all God's people associated with them.
16 Hilser hverandre med et helligt Kys! Alle Kristi Menigheder hilse eder!
Salute one another with a holy kiss. All the Churches of Christ send greetings to you.
17 Men jeg formaner eder, Brødre! til at give Agt paa dem, som volde Splittelserne og Forargelserne tvært imod den Lære, som I have lært, og viger bort fra dem!
But I beseech you, brethren, to keep a watch on those who are causing the divisions among you, and are leading others into sin, in defiance of the instruction which you have received; and habitually to shun them.
18 Thi saadanne tjene ikke vor Herre Kristus, men deres egen Bug, og ved søde Ord og skøn Tale forføre de de troskyldiges Hjerter.
For men of that stamp are not bondservants of Christ our Lord, but are slaves to their own appetites; and by their plausible words and their flattery they utterly deceive the minds of the simple.
19 Eders Lydighed er jo kommen alle for Øre; derfor glæder jeg mig over eder. Men jeg vil, at I skulle være vise med Hensyn til det gode og enfoldige med Hensyn til det onde.
Your fidelity to the truth is everywhere known. I rejoice over you, therefore, but I wish you to be wise as to what is good, and simple-minded as to what is evil.
20 Men Fredens Gud skal hastelig knuse Satan under eders Fødder. Vor Herres Jesu Kristi Naade være med eder!
And before long, God the giver of peace will crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you!
21 Timotheus, min Medarbejder, og Lukius og Jason og Sosipater, mine Frænder, hilse eder.
Timothy, my fellow worker, sends you greetings, and so do my countrymen Lucius, Jason and Sosipater.
22 Jeg, Tertius, som har nedskrevet dette Brev, hilser eder i Herren.
I, Tertius, who write this letter, send you Christian greetings.
23 Kajus, min og den hele Menigheds Vært, hilser eder. Erastus, Stadens Rentemester, hilser eder, og Broderen Kvartus. [
Gaius, my host, who is also the host of the whole Church, greets you. So do Erastus, the treasurer of the city, and Quartus our brother.
24 Vor Herres Jesu Kristi Naade være med eder alle! Amen.]
25 Men ham, som kan styrke eder i mit Evangelium og Forkyndelsen af Jesus Kristus, i Overensstemmelse med Aabenbarelse af en Hemmelighed, som var fortiet fra evige Tider, (aiōnios g166)
To Him who has it in His power to make you strong, as declared in the Good News which I am spreading, and the proclamation concerning Jesus Christ, in harmony with the unveiling of the Truth which in the periods of past Ages remained unuttered, (aiōnios g166)
26 men nu er bragt for Dagen og ved profetiske Skrifter efter den evige Guds Befaling kundgjort for alle Hedningerne til Tros-Lydighed: (aiōnios g166)
but has now been brought fully to light, and by the command of the God of the Ages has been made known by the writings of the Prophets among all the Gentiles to win them to obedience to the faith-- (aiōnios g166)
