Galaterne 6
1 Brødre! om også et Menneske bliver overrasket af nogen Forsyndelse, da hjælper en sådan til Rette, I åndelige! med Sagtmodigheds Ånd, og se til dig selv, at ikke også du bliver fristet!
Brethren! if a man should even be overtaken in any fault, ye, the spiritual, be restoring such a one, in a spirit of meekness, looking to thyself, lest, even thou, be put to the test.
2 Bærer hverandres Byrder og opfylder således Kristi Lov!
One another’s burdens, be ye bearing, and, so, fill up the law of the Christ.
3 Thi når nogen mener, at han er noget, skønt han intet er, da bedrager han sig selv.
For, if any one thinketh he is something, when he is, nothing, he deceiveth himself;
4 Men hver prøve sin egen Gerning, og da skal han have sin Ros i Forhold til sig selv alene, og ikke til Næsten;
But, his own work, let each one be putting to the proof, and, then, for himself alone, the matter of boasting, shall he have, and not for some other,
5 thi hver skal bære sin egen Byrde.
For, each one, his own proper load, shall bear: —
6 Men den, som undervises i Ordet skal dele alt godt med den, som underviser ham.
Howbeit, let him who is being orally instructed in the word, have fellowship with him that is so instructing him, in all good things.
7 Farer ikke vild; Gud lader sig ikke spotte; thi hvad et Menneske sår, det skal han også høste.
Be not deceiving yourselves! God, is not to be mocked; for, whatsoever a man soweth, the same, shall he also reap, —
8 Thi den, som sår i sit Kød, skal høste Fordærvelse af Kødet; men den, som sår i Ånden, skal høste evigt Liv af Ånden. (aiōnios g166)
Because, he that soweth into his own flesh, out of the flesh, shall reap corruption, whereas, he that soweth into the Spirit, out of the Spirit, shall reap age-abiding life. (aiōnios g166)
9 Men når vi gøre det gode, da lader os ikke blive trætte; thi i sin Tid skulle vi høste, såfremt vi ikke give tabt.
And, in doing that which is honourable, let us not be fainthearted; for, in due season, we shall reap, if we faint not.
10 Så lader os altså, efter som vi have Lejlighed, gøre det gode imod alle, men mest imod Troens egne!
Hence, then, as we have opportunity, let us be working what is good, towards all, —but, especially, towards the family of the faith.
11 Ser nu, med hvor store Bogstaver jeg skriver til eder med min egen Hånd!
See! with what large letters, unto you, I have written, with my own hand: —
12 Alle de, som ville tage sig godt ud i Kødet, de tvinge eder til at lade eder omskære, alene for at de ikke skulle forfølges for Kristi Kors's Skyld.
As many as are wishing to make a good show in flesh, the same, are compelling you to get circumcised, —only that, for the cross of Christ [Jesus], they may not be suffering persecution!
13 Thi ikke engang de, som lade sig omskære, holde selv Loven; men de ville, at I skulle lade eder omskære, for at de kunne rose sig af eders Kød.
For, not even they who are getting circumcised, are, themselves, observing law, —but are wishing you to be circumcised, that, in your flesh, they may boast themselves.
14 Men det være langt fra mig at rose mig uden af vor Herres Jesu Kristi Kors, ved hvem Verden er korsfæstet for mig, og jeg for Verden.
With me, however, far be it! to be boasting, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, —whereby, unto me, a world hath been crucified, and, I, unto a world;
15 Thi hverken Omskærelse eller Forhud er noget, men en ny Skabning.
For neither circumcision is anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation; —
16 Og så mange, som vandre efter denne Rettesnor, over dem være Fred og Barmhjertighed, og over Guds Israel!
And, as many as, by this rule, shall walk, peace be upon them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
17 Herefter volde ingen mig Besvær; thi jeg bærer Jesu Mærketegn på mit Legeme:
For the rest, annoyances, unto me, let no one be offering; for, I, the brandmarks of Jesus, in my body, am bearing.
18 Vor Herres Jesu Kristi Nåde være med eders Ånd, Brødre! Amen.
The favour of our Lord Jesus Christ, be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.
