< Hebrews 9 >
1 Now that first covenant did indeed have regulations for divine service and the earthly sanctuary.
Vel havde ogsaa den første Pagt Forskrifter for Gudstjenesten og en jordisk Helligdom.
2 Yes, a tabernacle was set up: the first part, which is called the Holy Place, in which were the lamp stand, the table and the showbread;
Thi der var indrettet et Telt, det forreste, hvori Lysestagen var og Bordet og Skuebrødene, det, som jo kaldes det hellige.
3 and behind the second curtain an area called the Holy of Holies,
Men bag det andet Forhæng var et Telt, det, som kaldes det allerhelligste,
4 having a golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold—in it were a golden jar holding the manna, Aaron's rod that budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant;
som havde et gyldent Røgelsealter og Pagtens Ark, overalt beklædt med Guld, i hvilken der var en Guldkrukke med Mannaen, og Arons Stav, som havde blomstret, og Pagtens Tavler,
5 while above it were cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat (this is not the place to go into detail about them).
men oven over den var Herlighedens Keruber, som overskyggede Naadestolen, hvorom der nu ikke skal tales enkeltvis.
6 Now when these things had been thus prepared, the priests continually went into the first part, performing the divine services,
Idet nu dette er saaledes indrettet, gaa Præsterne til Stadighed ind i det forreste Telt, naar de forrette Tjenesten;
7 but into the second one only the high priest could go, once a year and only with blood, which he offered for himself and for the people's sins of ignorance;
men i det andet gaar alene Ypperstepræsten ind een Gang om Aaret, ikke uden Blod, hvilket han ofrer for sig selv og Folkets Forseelser,
8 the Holy Spirit was making clear that the way into the Most Holy Place was not yet open to the public while the first tabernacle was still in existence.
hvorved den Helligaand giver til Kende, at Vejen til Helligdommen endnu ikke er bleven aabenbar, saa længe det forreste Telt endnu staar,
9 It was a figure during the time then present, a time when both gifts and sacrifices were being offered that were incapable of clearing the conscience of the worshiper—
hvilket jo er et Sindbillede indtil den nærværende Tid, og stemmende hermed frembæres der baade Gaver og Ofre, som ikke i Henseende til Samvittigheden kunne fuldkomme den, der forretter sin Gudsdyrkelse,
10 they were only about foods and drinks and various ceremonial washings and physical regulations, things imposed until the time of restructuring.
men som kun, ved Siden af Mad og Drikke og forskellige Tvættelser, ere kødelige Forskrifter, paalagte indtil den rette Ordnings Tid.
11 But Christ entered once for all into the real Holy Places, having obtained eternal redemption—He had come as High Priest of the good things that are about to be, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,
Men da Kristus kom som Ypperstepræst for de kommende Goder, gik han igennem det større og fuldkomnere Telt, som ikke er gjort med Hænder, det er: Som ikke er af denne Skabning,
12 and with His own blood, not that of goats and calves. (aiōnios )
og gik ikke heller med Blod af Bukke eller Kalve, men med sit eget Blod een Gang for alle ind i Helligdommen og vandt en evig Forløsning. (aiōnios )
13 For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who had been ceremonially defiled, restored ceremonial purity to the body,
Thi dersom Blodet af Bukke og Tyre og Aske af en Kvie ved at stænkes paa de besmittede helliger til Kødets Renhed:
14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the Holy Spirit offered Himself unblemished to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (aiōnios )
Hvor meget mere skal da Kristi Blod, hans, som ved en evig Aand frembar sig selv lydeløs for Gud, rense eders Samvittighed fra døde Gerninger til at tjene den levende Gud? (aiōnios )
15 For this reason He is mediator of a new covenant, so that those who have been called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant. (aiōnios )
Og derfor er han Mellemmand for en ny Pagt, for at de kaldede, da der har fundet Død Sted til Genløsning fra Overtrædelserne under den første Pagt, maa faa den evige Arvs Forjættelse. (aiōnios )
16 Now where there is a will, the death of the one who made it must be established;
Thi hvor der er en Arvepagt, der er det nødvendigt, at hans Død, som har oprettet Pagten, skal godtgøres.
17 because a will is in force after men are dead, since it never takes effect while the one who made it lives.
Thi en Arvepagt er urokkelig efter døde, da den ingen Sinde træder i Kraft, medens den, som har oprettet den, lever.
18 Therefore, not even the first covenant was inaugurated without blood;
Derfor er heller ikke den første bleven indviet uden Blod.
19 because when every commandment of the Law had been proclaimed by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the scroll itself and all the people,
Thi da hvert Bud efter Loven var forkyndt af Moses for hele Folket, tog han Kalve- og Bukkeblod med Vand og skarlagenrød Uld og Isop og bestænkede baade Bogen selv og hele Folket, idet han sagde:
20 saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which God has decreed to you.”
„Dette er den Pagts Blod, hvilken Gud har paalagt eder.‟
21 Then he sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the divine service with the blood in the same way.
Og Tabernakelet og alle Tjenestens Redskaber bestænkede han ligeledes med Blodet.
22 In fact, according to the Law nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.
Og næsten alt bliver efter Loven renset med Blod, og uden Blods Udgydelse sker der ikke Forladelse.
23 So then, it was necessary for the copies of the things in the heavens to be cleansed with such, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than those.
Altsaa var det en Nødvendighed, at Afbildningerne af de himmelske Ting skulde renses herved, men selve de himmelske Ting ved bedre Ofre end disse.
24 For Christ did not enter into Holy Places made by hands, mere copies of the true ones, but into Heaven itself, now to appear in God's presence on our behalf;
Thi Kristus gik ikke ind i en Helligdom, som var gjort med Hænder og kun var et Billede af den sande, men ind i selve Himmelen for nu at træde frem for Guds Ansigt til Bedste for os;
25 but not in order to offer Himself repeatedly, like the high priest who entered the Most Holy Place year by year with another's blood
ikke heller for at han skulde ofre sig selv mange Gange, ligesom Ypperstepræsten hvert Aar gaar ind i Helligdommen med fremmed Blod;
26 —otherwise He would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world; but now, once for all at the end of the ages, He has been revealed to nullify sin by the sacrifice of Himself. (aiōn )
ellers havde han maattet lide mange Gange fra Verdens Grundlæggelse; men nu er han een Gang for alle ved Tidernes Fuldendelse aabenbaret for at bortskaffe Synden ved sit Offer. (aiōn )
27 Also, inasmuch as men are destined to die but once, after which the judgment,
Og ligesom det er Menneskene beskikket at dø een Gang og derefter Dom,
28 so the Christ also, having been offered once for all to bear the sins of many—He will appear a second time to those who are eagerly waiting for Him, apart from sin, into salvation.
saaledes skal ogsaa Kristus, efter at være bleven een Gang ofret for at bære manges Synder, anden Gang, uden Synd, vise sig for dem, som forvente ham til Frelse.
