< Romerne 5 >
1 Altsaa retfærdiggjorte af Tro have vi Fred med Gud ved vor Herre Jesus Kristus,
Therefore having been justified on the principle of faith, we have peace towards God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
2 ved hvem vi ogsaa have faaet Adgang ved Troen til denne Naade, hvori vi staa, og vi rose os af Haab om Guds Herlighed;
by whom we have also access by faith into this favour in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God.
3 ja, ikke det alene, men vi rose os ogsaa af Trængslerne, idet vi vide, at Trængselen virker Udholdenhed,
And not only [that], but we also boast in tribulations, knowing that tribulation works endurance;
4 men Udholdenheden Prøvethed, men Prøvetheden Haab,
and endurance, experience; and experience, hope;
5 men Haabet beskæmmer ikke; thi Guds Kærlighed er udøst i vore Hjerter ved den Helligaand, som blev given os.
and hope does not make ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by [the] Holy Spirit which has been given to us:
6 Thi medens vi endnu vare kraftesløse, døde Kristus til den bestemte Tid for ugudelige.
for we being still without strength, in [the] due time Christ has died for [the] ungodly.
7 Næppe vil nemlig nogen dø for en retfærdig — for den gode var der jo maaske nogen, som tog sig paa at dø —,
For scarcely for [the] just [man] will one die, for perhaps for [the] good [man] some one might also dare to die;
8 men Gud beviser sin Kærlighed over for os, ved at Kristus døde for os, medens vi endnu vare Syndere.
but God commends his love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us.
9 Saa meget mere skulle vi altsaa, da vi nu ere blevne retfærdiggjorte ved hans Blod, frelses ved ham fra Vreden.
Much rather therefore, having been now justified in [the power of] his blood, we shall be saved by him from wrath.
10 Thi naar vi, da vi vare Fjender, bleve forligte med Gud ved hans Søns Død, da skulle vi meget mere, efter at vi ere blevne forligte, frelses ved hans Liv,
For if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much rather, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in [the power of] his life.
11 ja, ikke det alene, men ogsaa saaledes, at vi rose os af Gud ved vor Herre Jesus Kristus, ved hvem vi nu have faaet Forligelsen.
And not only [that], but [we are] making our boast in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we have received the reconciliation.
12 Derfor, ligesom Synden kom ind i Verden ved eet Menneske, og Døden ved Synden, og Døden saaledes trængte igennem til alle Mennesker, efterdi de syndede alle; (
For this [cause], even as by one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death; and thus death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
13 thi inden Loven var der Synd i Verden; men Synd tilregnes ikke, hvor der ikke er Lov;
(for until law sin was in [the] world; but sin is not put to account when there is no law;
14 dog herskede Døden fra Adam til Moses ogsaa over dem, som ikke syndede i Lighed med Adams Overtrædelse, han, som er et Forbillede paa den, der skulde komme.
but death reigned from Adam until Moses, even upon those who had not sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is [the] figure of him to come.
15 Men det er ikke saaledes med Naadegaven som med Faldet; thi døde de mange ved den enes Fald, da har meget mere Guds Naade og Gaven i det ene Menneskes Jesu Kristi Naade udbredt sig overflødig, til de mange.
But [shall] not the act of favour [be] as the offence? For if by the offence of one the many have died, much rather has the grace of God, and the free gift in grace, which [is] by the one man Jesus Christ, abounded unto the many.
16 Og Gaven er ikke som igennem en enkelt, der syndede; thi Dommen blev ud fra en enkelt til Fordømmelse, men Naadegaven blev ud fra mange Fald til Retfærdiggørelse.
And [shall] not as by one that has sinned [be] the gift? For the judgment [was] of one to condemnation, but the act of favour, of many offences unto justification.
17 Thi naar paa Grund af den enes Fald Døden herskede ved den ene, da skulle meget mere de, som modtage den overvættes Naade og Retfærdigheds Gave, herske i Liv ved den ene, Jesus Kristus.)
For if by the offence of the one death reigned by the one, much rather shall those who receive the abundance of grace, and of the free gift of righteousness, reign in life by the one Jesus Christ: )
18 Altsaa, ligesom det ved eens Fald blev for alle Mennesker til Fordømmelse, saaledes ogsaa ved eens Retfærdighed for alle Mennesker til Retfærdiggørelse til Liv.
so then as [it was] by one offence towards all men to condemnation, so by one righteousness towards all men for justification of life.
19 Thi ligesom ved det ene Menneskes Ulydighed de mange bleve til Syndere, saa skulle ogsaa ved den enes Lydighed de mange blive til retfærdige.
For as indeed by the disobedience of the one man the many have been constituted sinners, so also by the obedience of the one the many will be constituted righteous.
20 Men Loven kom til, for at Faldet kunde blive større; men hvor Synden blev større, der blev Naaden end mere overvættes,
But law came in, in order that the offence might abound; but where sin abounded grace has overabounded,
21 for at, ligesom Synden herskede ved Døden, saaledes ogsaa Naaden skulde herske ved Retfærdighed til et evigt Liv ved Jesus Kristus, vor Herre. (aiōnios )
in order that, even as sin has reigned in [the power of] death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
