1 John 2
1 My little children, these things I write to you, that you may not sin. But if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the just:
Mine Børn! dette skriver jeg til eder, for at I ikke skulle synde. Og dersom nogen synder, have vi en Talsmand hos Faderen, Jesus Kristus, den retfærdige,
2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.
og han er en Forsoning for vore Synder, dog ikke alene for vore, men også for hele Verdens.
3 And by this we know that we have known him, if we keep his commandments.
Og derpå kende vi, at vi have kendt ham, om vi holde hans Bud.
4 He who saith that he knoweth him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Den, som siger: "Jeg kender ham," og ikke holder hans Bud. han er en Løgner, og i ham er Sandheden ikke;
5 But he that keepeth his word, in him in very deed the charity of God is perfected; and by this we know that we are in him.
men den, som holder hans Ord, i ham er sandelig Guds Kærlighed fuldkommet. Derpå kende vi, at vi ere i ham.
6 He that saith he abideth in him, ought himself also to walk, even as he walked.
Den, som siger, at han bliver i ham, han er også skyldig selv at vandre således, som han vandrede.
7 Dearly beloved, I write not a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard.
I elskede, jeg skriver til eder ikke et nyt Bud, men et gammelt Bud, som I have haft fra Begyndelsen. Det gamle Bud er det Ord, som I have hørt.
8 Again a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true both in him and in you; because the darkness is passed, and the true light now shineth.
Og dog skriver jeg til eder et nyt Bud, hvilket er sandt i ham og i eder, thi Mørket drager bort, og det sande Lys skinner allerede.
9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
Den, som siger, at han er i Lyset, og hader sin Broder, han er i Mørket endnu.
10 He that loveth his brother, abideth in the light, and there is no scandal in him.
Den, som elsker sin Broder, bliver i Lyset, og der er ingen Forargelse i ham.
11 But he that hateth his brother, is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth; because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.
Men den, som hader sin Broder, er i Mørket og vandrer i Mørket, og han ved ikke, hvor han går hen, fordi Mørket har blindet hans Øjne.
12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake.
Jeg skriver til eder, mine Børn! fordi eders Synder ere eder forladte for hans Navns Skyld.
13 I write unto you, fathers, because you have known him, who is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one.
Jeg skriver til eder, I Fædre! fordi I kende ham, som er fra Begyndelsen. Jeg skriver til eder, I unge! fordi I have overvundet den onde. Jeg har skrevet til eder, mine Børn! fordi I kende Faderen.
14 I write unto you, babes, because you have known the Father. I write unto you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.
Jeg har skrevet til eder, I Fædre! fordi I kende ham, som er fra Begyndelsen. Jeg har skrevet til eder, I unge! fordi I ere stærke, og Guds Ord bliver i eder, og I have overvundet den onde.
15 Love not the world, nor the things which are in the world. If any man love the world, the charity of the Father is not in him.
Elsker ikke Verden, ikke heller de Ting, som ere i Verden! Dersom nogen elsker Verden, er Faderens Kærlighed ikke i ham.
16 For all that is in the world, is the concupiscence of the flesh, and the concupiscence of the eyes, and the pride of life, which is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Thi alt det, som er i Verden, Kødets Lyst og Øjnenes Lyst og Livets Hoffærdighed, er ikke af Faderen, men af Verden.
17 And the world passeth away, and the concupiscence thereof: but he that doth the will of God, abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
Og Verden forgår og dens Lyst; men den, som gør Guds Villie, bliver til evig Tid. (aiōn g165)
18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that Antichrist cometh, even now there are become many Antichrists: whereby we know that it is the last hour.
Mine Børn! det er den sidste Time, og som I have hørt, at Antikrist kommer, således ere nu mange Antikrister fremtrådte; deraf kende vi, at det er den sidste Time.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us. For if they had been of us, they would no doubt have remained with us; but that they may be manifest, that they are not all of us.
De ere udgåede fra os, men de vare ikke af os; thi dersom de havde været af os, da vare de blevne hos os. Dog, det var, for at det skulde blive åbenbart, at de ikke alle ere af os.
20 But you have the unction from the Holy One, and know all things.
Og I have Salvelse fra den hellige og vide alt.
21 I have not written to you as to them that know not the truth, but as to them that know it: and that no lie is of the truth.
Jeg har ikke skrevet til eder, fordi I ikke vide Sandheden; men fordi I vide den og vide, at ingen Løgn er af Sandheden.
22 Who is a liar, but he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is Antichrist, who denieth the Father, and the Son.
Hvem er Løgneren uden den, som nægter, at Jesus er Kristus? Denne er Antikristen, som fornægter Faderen og Sønnen.
23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father. He that confesseth the Son, hath the Father also.
Hver den, som fornægter Sønnen, har ej heller Faderen; den, som bekender Sønnen, har også Faderen.
24 As for you, let that which you have heard from the beginning, abide in you. If that abide in you, which you have heard from the beginning, you also shall abide in the Son, and in the Father.
Hvad I have hørt fra Begyndelsen, det blive i eder! Dersom det, som I have hørt fra Begyndelsen, bliver i eder, skulle også I blive i Sønnen og i Faderen.
Og dette er den Forjættelse, som han selv tilsagde os, det evige Liv. (aiōnios g166)
26 These things have I written to you, concerning them that seduce you.
Dette har jeg skrevet til eder om dem, som forføre eder.
27 And as for you, let the unction, which you have received from him, abide in you. And you have no need that any man teach you; but as his unction teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie. And as it hath taught you, abide in him.
Og den Salvelse, som I fik af ham, bliver i eder, og I have ikke nødig, at nogen skal lære eder; men således som hans Salvelse lærer eder alt, er det også sandt og er ikke Løgn, og som den har lært eder, skulle I blive i ham.
28 And now, little children, abide in him, that when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be confounded by him at his coming.
Og nu mine Børn! bliver i ham, for at vi, når han åbenbares, kunne have Frimodighed og ikke skulle blive til Skamme for ham ved hans Tilkommelse.
29 If you know, that he is just, know ye, that every one also, who doth justice, is born of him.
Dersom I vide, at han er retfærdig, da erkender, at hver den, som gør Retfærdighed, er født af ham.
