Hebrews 5
1 Every high priest is appointed from among men to represent them in matters relating to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.
Thi hver Ypperstepræst tages iblandt Mennesker og indsættes for Mennesker til Tjenesten for Gud, for at han skal frembære baade Gaver og Slagtofre for Synder,
2 He is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and misguided, since he himself is beset by weakness.
som en, der kan bære over med de vankundige og vildfarende, eftersom han ogsaa selv er stedt i Skrøbelighed
3 That is why he is obligated to offer sacrifices for his own sins, as well as for the sins of the people.
og for dens Skyld maa frembære Syndoffer, som for Folket saaledes ogsaa for sig selv.
4 No one takes this honor upon himself; he must be called by God, just as Aaron was.
Og ingen tager sig selv den Ære, men han kaldes af Gud, ligesom jo ogsaa Aron.
5 So also Christ did not take upon Himself the glory of becoming a high priest, but He was called by the One who said to Him: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.”
Saaledes har ej heller Kristus tillagt sig selv den Ære at blive Ypperstepræst, men den, som sagde til ham: „Du er min Søn, jeg har født dig i Dag,”
6 And in another passage God says: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)
som han jo ogsaa siger et andet Sted: „Du er Præst til evig Tid, efter Melkisedeks Vis,” (aiōn g165)
7 During the days of Jesus’ earthly life, He offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the One who could save Him from death, and He was heard because of His reverence.
han, som i sit Køds Dage med stærkt Raab og Taarer frembar Bønner og ydmyge Begæringer til den, der kunde frelse ham fra Døden, og blev bønhørt i sin Angest,
8 Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from what He suffered.
og saaledes, endskønt han var Søn, lærte han Lydighed af det, han led,
9 And having been made perfect, He became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey Him (aiōnios g166)
og efter at være fuldkommet blev Aarsag til evig Frelse for alle dem, som lyde ham, (aiōnios g166)
10 and was designated by God as high priest in the order of Melchizedek.
idet han af Gud blev kaldt Ypperstepræst efter Melkisedeks Vis.
11 We have much to say about this, but it is hard to explain, because you are dull of hearing.
Herom have vi meget at sige, og det er vanskeligt at forklare, efterdi I ere blevne sløve til at høre.
12 Although by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to reteach you the basic principles of God’s word. You need milk, not solid food!
Thi skønt I efter Tiden endog burde være Lærere, trænge I atter til, at man skal lære eder Begyndelsesgrundene i Guds Ord, og I ere blevne saadanne, som trænge til Mælk og ikke til fast Føde.
13 For everyone who lives on milk is still an infant, inexperienced in the message of righteousness.
Thi hver, som faar Mælk, er ukyndig i den rette Tale, thi han er spæd;
14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained their senses to distinguish good from evil.
men for de fuldkomne er den faste Føde, for dem, som paa Grund af deres Erfaring have Sanserne øvede til at skelne mellem godt og ondt.
