1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes the brother,
Paulus, Jesu Kristi kaldede Apostel ved Guds Villie, og Broderen Sosthenes
2 to the congregation of God that is at Corinth, to called men, to holy men who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus with all in every place who call upon the name of our the Lord Jesus Christ-both ours and theirs.
til Guds Menighed, som er i Korinth, helligede i Kristus Jesus, hellige ifølge Kald tillige med alle dem, der paa ethvert Sted paakalde vor Herres Jesu Kristi, deres og vor Herres Navn:
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Naade være med eder og Fred fra Gud vor Fader og den Herre Jesus Kristus!
4 I thank my God always about you, for the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus,
Jeg takker min Gud altid for eder, for den Guds Naade, som blev given eder i Kristus Jesus,
5 that in everything ye were enriched in him, in all speech and in all knowledge.
at I ved ham ere blevne rige i alt, i al Tale og al Kundskab,
6 Just as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,
ligesom Vidnesbyrdet om Kristus er blevet stadfæstet hos eder,
7 so that ye come behind in not one gift, waiting for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
saa at I ikke staa tilbage i nogen Naadegave, idet I forvente vor Herres Jesu Kristi Aabenbarelse,
8 who will also confirm you until the end, irreproachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
han, som ogsaa skal stadfæste eder indtil Enden som ustraffelige paa vor Herres Jesu Kristi Dag.
9 God is faithful through whom ye were called for the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Trofast er Gud, ved hvem I bleve kaldede til Samfund med hans Søn, Jesus Kristus, vor Herre.
10 Now I beseech you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and there be no divisions among you, but ye may be thoroughly prepared in the same mind and in the same understanding.
Men jeg formaner eder, Brødre! ved vor Herres Jesu Kristi Navn, at I alle skulle føre samme Tale, og at der ikke maa findes Splittelser iblandt eder, men at I skulle være forenede i det samme Sind og i den samme Mening.
11 For it was declared to me about you, my brothers, by those of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
Thi det er blevet mig fortalt om eder, mine Brødre! af Kloes Husfolk, at der er Splidagtighed iblandt eder.
12 Now I say this. That each of you actually say, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.
Jeg mener dette, at enhver af eder siger: Jeg hører Paulus til, og jeg Apollos, og jeg Kefas, og jeg Kristus.
13 Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you, or were ye immersed in the name of Paul?
Er Kristus delt? mon Paulus blev korsfæstet for eder? eller bleve I døbte til Paulus's Navn?
14 I thank God that I immersed none of you except Crispus and Gaius,
Jeg takker Gud for, at jeg ikke døbte nogen af eder, uden Krispus og Kajus,
15 lest some man should say that I immersed in my name.
for at ikke nogen skal sige, at I bleve døbte til mit Navn.
16 And I also immersed the household of Stephanas. Besides, I know not whether I immersed any other.
Dog, jeg døbte ogsaa Stefanas's Hus; ellers ved jeg ikke, om jeg døbte nogen anden.
17 For Christ sent me not to immerse, but to preach the good news, not in wisdom of speech lest the cross of Christ would be emptied.
Thi Kristus sendte mig ikke for at døbe, men for at forkynde Evangeliet, ikke med vise Ord, for at Kristi Kors ikke skulde tabe sin Kraft.
18 For the message of the cross is of course foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is a power of God.
Thi Korsets Ord er vel for dem, som fortabes, en Daarskab, men for dem, som frelses, for os er det en Guds Kraft.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will frustrate the understanding of those of understanding.
Thi der er skrevet: „Jeg vil lægge de vises Visdom øde, og de forstandiges Forstand vil jeg gøre til intet.‟
20 Where is a wise man? Where is a scholar? Where is a researcher of this age? Did not God make foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)
Hvor er der en viis? hvor er der en skriftklog? hvor er der en Ordkæmper af denne Verden? har Gud ikke gjort Verdens Visdom til Daarskab? (aiōn g165)
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world did not know God through its wisdom, it pleased God through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.
Thi efterdi Verden ved sin Visdom ikke erkendte Gud i hans Visdom, behagede det Gud ved Prædikenens Daarskab at frelse dem, som tro,
22 And because Jews demand a sign and Greeks search for wisdom,
eftersom baade Jøder kræve Tegn, og Grækere søge Visdom,
23 but we proclaim Christ crucified, it is truly to Jews a stumbling-block and to Gentiles foolishness.
vi derimod prædike Kristus som korsfæstet, for Jøder en Forargelse og for Hedninger en Daarskab,
24 But to them, to the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
men for selve de kaldede baade Jøder og Grækere, Kristus som Guds Kraft og Guds Visdom.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weak thing of God is stronger than men.
Thi Guds Daarskab er visere end Menneskene, og Guds Svaghed er stærkere end Menneskene.
26 For notice your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many eminent.
Thi ser, Brødre! paa eders Kaldelse, at I ere ikke mange vise efter Kødet, ikke mange mægtige, ikke mange fornemme;
27 But God chose the foolish things of the world, so that he might humiliate the wise, and God chose the weak things of the world, so that he might humiliate the powerful.
men det, som var Daarskab for Verden, udvalgte Gud for at beskæmme de vise, og det, som var svagt for Verden, udvalgte Gud for at beskæmme det stærke;
28 And God chose the common things of the world, and the disdained things, and the things that are not, so that he might make useless the things that are,
og det for Verden uædle og det ringeagtede, det, som intet var, udvalgte Gud for at gøre det, som var noget, til intet,
29 so that no flesh may boast before God.
for at intet Kød skal rose sig for Gud.
30 But ye are his, in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
Men ud af ham ere I i Kristus Jesus, som blev os Visdom fra Gud, baade Retfærdighed og Helliggørelse og Forløsning;
31 so that, just as it is written, He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.
for at, som der er skrevet: „Den, som roser sig, rose sig af Herren!‟
