Acts 3
1 Peter and John were on their way up to the Temple at the time of the afternoon prayer, around 3 p.m.
Men Peter og Johannes gik op i Helligdommen ved Bedetimen, den niende Time.
2 A man who had been lame from birth was being carried there. Every day he was placed beside the Temple gate called “Beautiful” so he could beg from the people going into the Temple.
Og en Mand, som var lam fra Moders Liv af, blev båren frem; ham satte de daglig ved den Dør til Helligdommen, som kaldtes den skønne, for at han kunde bede dem, som gik ind i Helligdommen, om Almisse.
3 He saw Peter and John as they were about to enter the Temple and asked them for some money.
Da han så Peter og Johannes, idet de vilde gå ind i Helligdommen, bad han om at få en Almisse.
4 Peter looked right at him. John did, too. “Look at us!” Peter said.
Da så Peter tillige med Johannes fast på ham og sagde: "Se på os!"
5 The lame man gave them his full attention, expecting to get something from them.
Og han gav Agt på dem, efterdi han ventede at få noget af dem.
6 “I don't have any silver or gold,” Peter told him, “but I'll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk!”
Men Peter sagde: "Sølv og Guld ejer jeg ikke, men hvad jeg har, det giver jeg dig: I Jesu Kristi Nazaræerens Navn stå op og gå!"
7 Peter took him by the right hand and helped him up. Right away his feet and ankles became strong.
Og han greb ham ved den højre Hånd og rejste ham op.
8 He jumped to his feet, and then began to walk. He went with them into the Temple, walking and jumping and praising God.
Men straks bleve hans Ben og Ankler stærke, og han sprang op og stod og gik omkring og gik med dem ind i Helligdommen, hvor han gik omkring og sprang og lovede Gud.
9 Everyone there saw him walking around and praising God.
Og hele Folket så ham gå omkring og love Gud.
10 They recognized him as the beggar who used to sit by the Temple's Beautiful Gate, and they were surprised and amazed at what had happened to him.
Og de kendte ham som den, der havde siddet ved den skønne Port til Helligdommen for at få Almisse; og de bleve fulde af Rædsel og Forfærdelse over det, som var timedes ham.
11 He held on tightly to Peter and John while everyone ran to them by Solomon's Porch in complete astonishment at what had happened.
Medens han nu holdt fast ved Peter og Johannes, løb alt Folket rædselsslagent sammen om dem i den Søjlegang, som kaldes Salomons.
12 When Peter saw this opportunity he told them, “People of Israel, why are you surprised at what's happened to this man? Why are you staring at us as if it was by our own power or faith that we made him walk?
Men da Peter så det, talte han til Folket: "I israelitiske Mænd! Hvorfor undre I eder over dette? eller hvorfor stirre I på os, som om vi af egen Magt eller Gudfrygtighed havde gjort, at han kan gå?
13 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—the God of our forefathers—has glorified his servant Jesus. He was the one you betrayed and rejected in the presence of Pilate, even after Pilate had decided to release him.
Abrahams og Isaks og Jakobs Gud, vore Fædres Gud, har herliggjort sin Tjener" Jesus, hvem I prisgave og fornægtede for Pilatus, da han dømte, at han skulde løslades.
14 You rejected the one who is holy and good, and demanded a murderer be released to you.
Men I fornægtede den hellige og retfærdige og bade om, at en Morder måtte skænkes eder.
15 You killed the author of life, the one God raised from the dead—and we are witnesses to this.
Men Livets Fyrste sloge I ihjel, hvem Gud oprejste fra de døde, hvorom vi ere Vidner.
16 By trusting in Jesus' name this man was healed by him. You see this man here; you know him. Through trusting in Jesus this man has received complete healing right in front of all of you.
Og i Troen på hans Navn har hans Navn styrket denne, hvem I se og kende, og Troen, som virkedes ved ham, har givet denne hans Førlighed i Påsyn af eder alle.
17 Now I know, brothers and sisters, that you did this in ignorance, like your rulers.
Og nu, Brødre! jeg ved, at I handlede i Uvidenhed, ligesom også eders Rådsherrer.
18 But God fulfilled what he had prophesied through all the prophets: that his Messiah would suffer.
Men Gud har således fuldbyrdet, hvad han forud forkyndte ved alle Profeternes Mund, at hans Salvede skulde lide.
19 Now repent, and change your ways, that your sins can be wiped away, so the Lord can send opportunities for you to heal and recover,
Derfor fatter et andet Sind og vender om, for at eders Synder må blive udslettede, for at Vederkvægelsens Tider må komme fra Herrens Åsyn,
20 and send Jesus, the Messiah appointed for you.
og han må sende den for eder bestemte Kristus, Jesus,
21 For he must stay in heaven until the time when everything is restored, as God announced through his holy prophets long ago. (aiōn g165)
hvem Himmelen skal modtage indtil alle Tings Genoprettelses Tider, hvorom Gud har talt ved sine hellige Profeters Mund fra de ældste Dage. (aiōn g165)
22 Moses said, ‘The Lord God will send you a prophet from among your own people who is like me. You must listen to everything he tells you.
Moses sagde: "En Profet skal Herren eders Gud oprejse eder af eders Brødre ligesom mig; ham skulle I høre i alt, hvad han end vil tale til eder.
23 Anybody who doesn't listen to him will be totally removed from the people.’
Men det skal ske, hver Sjæl, som ikke hører den Profet, skal udryddes af Folket."
24 All the prophets who have spoken, from Samuel on, prophesied about these days.
Men også alle Profeterne, fra Samuel af og derefter, så mange som talte, have også forkyndt disse Dage.
25 You are the sons of the prophets, and of the agreement which God made with your fathers when he said to Abraham, ‘From your descendants all the families of the earth will be blessed.’
I ere Profeternes Sønner og Sønner af den Pagt, som Gud sluttede med vore Fædre, da han sagde til Abraham: "Og i din Sæd skulle alle Jordens Slægter velsignes."
26 God prepared his Servant and sent him to you first, to bless you by turning every one of you from your evil ways.”
For eder først har Gud oprejst sin Tjener og sendt han for at velsigne eder, når enhver af eder vender om fra sin Ondskab."
