< Hebrews 13 >
1 Let brotherly love abide.
Broderkærligheden blive ved!
2 Do not forget love for strangers, for by this some lodged agents, unaware.
Glemmer ikke Gæstfriheden; thi ved den have nogle, uden at vide det, haft Engle til Gæster.
3 Remember the prisoners as being in bondage together, those who are ill-treated as also yourselves being in the body.
Kommer de fangne i Hu, som vare I selv medfangne; dem, der lide ilde, som de, der ogsaa selv ere i et Legeme.
4 Marriage is precious in every way, and the undefiled bed, but God will judge fornicators and adulterers.
Ægteskabet være æret hos alle, og Ægtesengen ubesmittet; thi utugtige og Horkarle skal Gud dømme.
5 The Way of life is to be without love of money, being content with the things that are present, for he has said, I will, no, not leave thee, and also, I will, no, not forsake thee.
Eders Vandel være uden Pengegridskhed, nøjes med det, I have; thi han har selv sagt: „Jeg vil ingenlunde slippe dig og ingenlunde forlade dig, ‟
6 So then we have confidence to say, The Lord is a helper to me, and I will not fear. What will man do to me?
saa at vi kunne sige med frit Mod: „Herren er min Hjælper, jeg vil ikke frygte; hvad kan et Menneske gøre mig?‟
7 Remember those who lead you, men who spoke the word of God to you, of whom, carefully observing the outcome of their conduct, imitate the faith-
Kommer eders Vejledere i Hu, som have forkyndt eder Guds Ord, og idet I betragte deres Vandrings Udgang, saa efterligner deres Tro!
8 Jesus Christ, the same yesterday and today, and into the ages. (aiōn )
Jesus Kristus er i Gaar og i Dag den samme, ja, til evig Tid. (aiōn )
9 Be not carried away by various and foreign doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established with grace, not with foods by which those who walked were not benefited.
Lader eder ikke lede vild af mange Haande og fremmede Lærdomme; thi det er godt, at Hjertet styrkes ved Naaden, ikke ved Spiser; thi deraf have de, som holdt sig dertil, ingen Nytte haft.
10 We have an altar from which they have no right to eat, those officiating at the tabernacle.
Vi have et Alter, hvorfra de, som tjene ved Tabernakelet, ikke have Ret til at spise.
11 For of the beasts whose blood is brought into the holy things for sin by the high priest, the bodies of these are burned outside the camp.
Thi de Dyr, hvis Blod for Syndens Skyld bæres ind i Helligdommen af Ypperstepræsten, deres Kroppe opbrændes uden for Lejren.
12 Therefore Jesus also, so that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered outside the gate.
Derfor led ogsaa Jesus uden for Porten, for at han kunde hellige Folket ved sit eget Blod.
13 Let us therefore go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.
Saa lader os da gaa ud til ham uden for Lejren, idet vi bære hans Forsmædelse;
14 For here we have no enduring city, but we seek that which is coming.
thi her have vi ikke en blivende Stad, men vi søge den kommende.
15 Through him therefore, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, fruit of lips acknowledging his name.
Lader os da ved ham altid frembære Gud Lovprisnings Offer, det er: En Frugt af Læber, som bekende hans Navn.
16 But do not forget benevolence and fellowship, for God is well pleased with such sacrifices.
Men glemmer ikke at gøre vel og at meddele; thi i saadanne Ofre har Gud Velbehag.
17 Have confidence in those who lead you, and yield yourselves, for they watch for your souls as men who will render account, so that they may do this with joy, and not groaning, for this is unprofitable for you.
Lyder eders Vejledere og retter eder efter dem; thi de vaage over eders Sjæle som de, der skulle gøre Regnskab — for at de maa gøre dette med Glæde og ikke sukkende; thi dette er eder ikke gavnligt.
18 Pray about us, for we trust that we have a good conscience, desiring to behave well in all things.
Beder for os; thi vi ere forvissede om, at vi have en god Samvittighed, idet vi ønske at vandre rettelig i alle Ting.
19 But I urge you to do this even more, so that I may be restored to you sooner.
Og jeg formaner eder des mere til at gøre dette, for at jeg desto snarere kan gives eder igen.
20 Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep by the blood of an eternal covenant-our Lord Jesus- (aiōnios )
Men Fredens Gud, som førte den store Faarenes Hyrde, vor Herre Jesus, op fra de døde med en evig Pagts Blod, (aiōnios )
21 may he make you fully qualified in every good work in order to do his will, doing in you what is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory into the ages of the ages. Truly. (aiōn )
han bringe eder til Fuldkommenhed i alt godt, til at gøre hans Villie, og han virke i eder det, som er velbehageligt for hans Aasyn, ved Jesus Kristus: Ham være Æren i Evighedernes Evigheder! Amen. (aiōn )
22 And I urge you, brothers, bear with the word of exhortation, for I also wrote to you in brief.
Jeg beder eder, Brødre! at I finde eder i dette Formaningsord; thi jeg har jo skrevet til eder i Korthed.
23 Know ye, brother Timothy who was set free is with whom I will see you, if he comes sooner.
Vider, at vor Broder Timotheus er løsladt; sammen med ham vil jeg se eder, dersom han snart kommer.
24 Salute all those who lead you, and all the sanctified. The men from Italy salute you.
Hilser alle eders Vejledere og alle de hellige! De fra Italien hilse eder.
25 Grace is with you all. Truly.
Naaden være med eder alle!
