Romans 5
1 For which reason, because we have righteousness through faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Altsaa retfærdiggjorte af Tro have vi Fred med Gud ved vor Herre Jesus Kristus,
2 Through whom, in the same way, we have been able by faith to come to this grace in which we now are; and let us have joy in hope of the glory of God.
ved hvem vi ogsaa have faaet Adgang ved Troen til denne Naade, hvori vi staa, og vi rose os af Haab om Guds Herlighed;
3 And not only so, but let us have joy in our troubles: in the knowledge that trouble gives us the power of waiting;
ja, ikke det alene, men vi rose os ogsaa af Trængslerne, idet vi vide, at Trængselen virker Udholdenhed,
4 And waiting gives experience; and experience, hope:
men Udholdenheden Prøvethed, men Prøvetheden Haab,
5 And hope does not put to shame; because our hearts are full of the love of God through the Holy Spirit which is given to us.
men Haabet beskæmmer ikke; thi Guds Kærlighed er udøst i vore Hjerter ved den Helligaand, som blev given os.
6 For when we were still without strength, at the right time Christ gave his life for evil-doers.
Thi medens vi endnu vare kraftesløse, døde Kristus til den bestemte Tid for ugudelige.
7 Now it is hard for anyone to give his life even for an upright man, though it might be that for a good man someone would give his life.
Næppe vil nemlig nogen dø for en retfærdig — for den gode var der jo maaske nogen, som tog sig paa at dø —,
8 But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.
men Gud beviser sin Kærlighed over for os, ved at Kristus døde for os, medens vi endnu vare Syndere.
9 Much more, if we now have righteousness by his blood, will salvation from the wrath of God come to us through him.
Saa meget mere skulle vi altsaa, da vi nu ere blevne retfærdiggjorte ved hans Blod, frelses ved ham fra Vreden.
10 For if, when we were haters of God, the death of his Son made us at peace with him, much more, now that we are his friends, will we have salvation through his life;
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,
11 And not only so, but we have joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we are now at peace with God.
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.
12 For this reason, as through one man sin came into the world, and death because of sin, and so death came to all men, because all have done evil:
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; (
13 Because, till the law came, sin was in existence, but sin is not put to the account of anyone when there is no law to be broken.
thi inden Loven var der Synd i Verden; men Synd tilregnes ikke, hvor der ikke er Lov;
14 But still death had power from Adam till Moses, even over those who had not done wrong like Adam, who is a picture of him who was to come.
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.
15 But the free giving of God is not like the wrongdoing of man. For if, by the wrongdoing of one man death came to numbers of men, much more did the grace of God, and the free giving by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, come to men.
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.
16 And the free giving has not the same effect as the sin of one: for the effect of one man's sin was punishment by the decision of God, but the free giving had power to give righteousness to wrongdoers in great number.
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.
17 For, if by the wrongdoing of one, death was ruling through the one, much more will those to whom has come the wealth of grace and the giving of righteousness, be ruling in life through the one, even Jesus Christ.
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.)
18 So then, as the effect of one act of wrongdoing was that punishment came on all men, even so the effect of one act of righteousness was righteousness of life for all men.
Altsaa, ligesom det ved eens Fald blev for alle Mennesker til Fordømmelse, saaledes ogsaa ved eens Retfærdighed for alle Mennesker til Retfærdiggørelse til Liv.
19 Because, as numbers of men became sinners through the wrongdoing of one man, even so will great numbers get righteousness through the keeping of the word of God by one man.
Thi ligesom ved det ene Menneskes Ulydighed de mange bleve til Syndere, saa skulle ogsaa ved den enes Lydighed de mange blive til retfærdige.
20 And the law came in addition, to make wrongdoing worse; but where there was much sin, there was much more grace:
Men Loven kom til, for at Faldet kunde blive større; men hvor Synden blev større, der blev Naaden end mere overvættes,
21 That, as sin had power in death, so grace might have power through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
for at, ligesom Synden herskede ved Døden, saaledes ogsaa Naaden skulde herske ved Retfærdighed til et evigt Liv ved Jesus Kristus, vor Herre. (aiōnios g166)
