Romans 5
1 Now that we have been made right by God by trusting in him, we have peace with him through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Altså retfærdiggjorte af Tro have vi Fred med Gud ved vor Herre Jesus Krist,
2 It's through Jesus, trusting in him, that we've gained access to this position of grace where we now stand, looking forward with happiness and confidence to sharing in God's glory.
ved hvem vi også have fået Adgang ved Troen til denne Nåde, hvori vi stå, og vi rose os af Håb om Guds Herlighed;
3 Not only this—we also remain confident when problems come, because we know that experiencing problems develops spiritual stamina.
ja, ikke det alene, men vi rose os også af Trængslerne, idet vi vide, at Trængselen virker Udholdenhed,
4 Spiritual stamina in turn develops a mature character, and this mature character results in confident hope.
men Udholdenheden Prøvethed, men Prøvetheden Håb,
5 Since we have this hope we're never disappointed, for God's love has been poured into us through the Holy Spirit he's given us.
men Håbet beskæmmer ikke; thi Guds Kærlighed er udøst i vore Hjerter ved den Helligånd, som blev given os.
6 When we were completely helpless, at just the right time Christ died for us ungodly people.
Thi medens vi endnu vare kraftesløse, døde Kristus til den bestemte Tid for ugudelige.
7 Who would die for anybody else, even someone who does what's right? (Though perhaps somebody would be brave enough to die for someone really good.)
Næppe vil nemlig nogen dø for en retfærdig - for den gode var der jo måske nogen, som tog sig på at dø -,
8 But God demonstrates his love for us in that Christ died for us while we were still sinners.
men Gud beviser sin Kærlighed over for os, ved at Kristus døde for os, medens vi endnu vare Syndere.
9 Now that we are made right by his death, we can be absolutely sure we'll be saved by him from the coming judgment.
Så meget mere skulle vi altså, da vi nu ere blevne retfærdiggjorte ved hans Blod, frelses ved ham fra Vreden.
10 While we were his enemies, God made us his friends through the death of his Son, and so we can be absolutely sure that he will save us through the life of his Son.
Thi når 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 In addition to this we now celebrate what God has done through our Lord Jesus Christ to reconcile us and make us his friends.
ja, ikke det alene, men også således, at vi rose os af Gud ved vor Herre Jesus Kristus, ved hvem vi nu have fået Forligelsen.
12 For through one man sin entered the world, and sin led to death. In this way death came to everyone, for everyone sinned.
Derfor, ligesom Synden kom ind i Verden ved eet Menneske, og Døden ved Synden, og Døden således trængte igennem til alle Mennesker, efterdi de syndede alle
13 Even before the law was given, sin was in the world, however it wasn't counted as sin because there was no law.
thi inden Loven var der Synd i Verden; men Synd tilregnes ikke. hvor der ikke er Lov;
14 But death still ruled from Adam until Moses, even over those who didn't sin in the same way as Adam did. Now Adam prefigured the one to come.
dog herskede Døden fra Adam til Moses også over dem, som ikke syndede i Lighed med Adams Overtrædelse, han, som er et Forbillede på den, der skulde komme.
15 But the gift of Jesus is not like the sin of Adam. Though many people died because of one man's sin, God's grace is so much greater and has been shared with so many through his gracious gift in the person of Jesus Christ.
Men det er ikke således med Nådegaven som med Faldet; thi døde de mange ved den enes Fald, da har meget mere Guds Nåde og Gaven i det ene Menneskes Jesu Kristi Nåde udbredt sig overflødig, til de mange.
16 The result of the gift is not like that of the sin. The result of Adam's sin was judgment and condemnation, but the gift sets us right with God, despite our many sins.
Og Gaven er ikke som igennem en enkelt, der syndede; thi Dommen blev ud fra en enkelt til Fordømmelse, men Nådegaven blev ud fra mange Fald til Retfærdiggørelse.
17 As a result of one man's sin, death ruled because of him. But God's grace is so much greater and his gift sets us right, for everyone who receives it will rule in life through the person of Jesus Christ!
Thi når på Grund af dennes Fald Døden herskede ved den ene, da skulle meget mere de, som modtage den overvættes Nåde og Retfærdigheds Gave, herske i Liv ved den ene, Jesus Kristus.
18 Just as one sin brought condemnation on everyone, in the same way one right act gave everyone the opportunity to live right.
Altså, ligesom det ved eens Fald blev for alle Mennesker til Fordømmelse, således også ved eens Retfærdighed for alle Mennesker til Retfærdiggørelse til Liv.
19 Just as through one man's disobedience many became sinners, in the same way through one man's obedience many are made right with God.
Thi ligesom ved det ene Menneskes Ulydighed de mange bleve til Syndere, så skulle også ved den enes Lydighed de mange blive til retfærdige.
20 When the law was introduced, sin became even more obvious. But while sin became much more obvious, grace became even more obvious!
Men Loven kom til, for at Faldet kunde blive større; men hvor Synden blev større, der blev Nåden end mere overvættes,
21 Just as sin ruled us and brought us death, now grace rules by making us right with God, bringing us eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
for at, ligesom Synden herskede ved Døden, således også Nåden skulde herske ved Retfærdighed til et evigt Liv ved Jesus Kristus, vor Herre. (aiōnios g166)
