2 Corinthians 5
1 For we knowe that if our earthly house of this tabernacle be destroyed, we haue a building giuen of God, that is, an house not made with handes, but eternall in the heauens. (aiōnios g166)
Thi vi vide, at dersom vor jordiske Teltbolig nedbrydes, have vi en Bygning fra Gud, en Bolig, som ikke er gjort med Hænder, en evig i Himlene. (aiōnios g166)
2 For therefore we sighe, desiring to be clothed with our house, which is from heauen.
Ja, ogsaa i denne sukke vi, længselsfulde efter at overklædes med vor Bolig fra Himmelen,
3 Because that if we be clothed, we shall not be found naked.
saa sandt vi da som iklædte ikke skulle findes nøgne.
4 For in deede we that are in this tabernacle, sigh and are burdened, because we would not be vnclothed, but would be clothed vpon, that mortalitie might be swalowed vp of life.
Ja, vi, som ere i dette Telt, sukke besværede, efterdi vi ikke ville afklædes, men overklædes, for at det dødelige kan blive opslugt af Livet.
5 And he that hath created vs for this thing, is God, who also hath giuen vnto vs the earnest of the Spirit.
Men den, som har sat os i Stand just til dette, er Gud, som gav os Aandens Pant.
6 Therefore we are alway bolde, though we knowe that whiles we are at home in the bodie, we are absent from the Lord.
Derfor ere vi altid frimodige og vide, at medens vi ere hjemme i Legemet, ere vi borte fra Herren —
7 (For we walke by faith, and not by sight.)
thi i Tro vandre vi, ikke i Beskuelse —
8 Neuerthelesse, we are bolde, and loue rather to remoue out of the body, and to dwell with the Lord.
ja, vi ere frimodige og have snarere Lyst til at vandre bort fra Legemet og være hjemme hos Herren.
9 Wherefore also we couet, that both dwelling at home, and remouing from home, we may be acceptable to him.
Derfor sætte vi ogsaa vor Ære i, hvad enten vi ere hjemme eller borte, at være ham velbehagelige.
10 For we must all appeare before the iudgement seate of Christ, that euery man may receiue the things which are done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or euill.
Thi vi skulle alle aabenbares for Kristi Domstol, for at hver kan faa igen, hvad der ved Legemet er gjort, efter det, som han har øvet, enten godt eller ondt.
11 Knowing therefore that terrour of the Lord, we persuade men, and we are made manifest vnto God, and I trust also that we are made manifest in your consciences.
Efterdi vi da kende Frygten for Herren, søge vi at vinde Mennesker; men for Gud ere vi aabenbare; ja, jeg haaber, at vi ogsaa ere aabenbare for eders Samvittigheder.
12 For we prayse not our selues againe vnto you, but giue you an occasion to reioyce of vs, that ye may haue to answere against them, which reioyce in the face, and not in the heart.
Ikke anbefale vi atter os selv til eder; men vi give eder Anledning til at rose eder af os, for at I kunne have noget at svare dem, som rose sig af det udvortes og ikke af Hjertet.
13 For whether we be out of our wit, we are it to God: or whether we be in our right minde, we are it vnto you.
Thi naar vi “bleve afsindige”, var det for Guds Skyld, og naar vi ere besindige, er det for eders Skyld.
14 For that loue of Christ constraineth vs,
Thi Kristi Kærlighed tvinger os,
15 Because we thus iudge, that if one be dead for all, then were all dead, and he died for all, that they which liue, shoulde not henceforth liue vnto themselues, but vnto him which died for them, and rose againe.
idet vi have sluttet saaledes: Een er død for alle, altsaa ere de alle døde; og han døde for alle, for at de levende ikke mere skulle leve for sig selv, men for ham, som er død og oprejst for dem.
16 Wherefore, henceforth know we no man after the flesh, yea though wee had knowen Christ after the flesh, yet nowe henceforth know we him no more.
Saaledes vide vi fra nu af ikke af nogen efter Kødet; om vi ogsaa have kendt Kristus efter Kødet, gøre vi det dog ikke mere nu.
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, let him be a newe creature. Olde things are passed away: beholde, all things are become newe.
Derfor, om nogen er i Kristus, da er han en ny Skabning; det gamle er forbigangent, se, det er blevet nyt!
18 And all things are of God, which hath reconciled vs vnto himselfe by Iesus Christ, and hath giuen vnto vs the ministerie of reconciliation.
Men alt dette er fra Gud, som forligte os med sig selv ved Kristus og gav os Forligelsens Tjeneste,
19 For God was in Christ, and reconciled the world to himselfe, not imputing their sinnes vnto them, and hath committed to vs the word of reconciliation.
efterdi det jo var Gud, som i Kristus forligte Verden med sig selv, idet han ikke tilregner dem deres Overtrædelser og har nedlagt Forligelsens Ord i os.
20 Now then are we ambassadours for Christ: as though God did beseeche you through vs, we pray you in Christes steade, that ye be reconciled to God.
Vi ere altsaa Sendebud i Kristi Sted, som om Gud formaner ved os; vi bede i Kristi Sted: Bliver forligte med Gud!
21 For he hath made him to be sinne for vs, which knewe no sinne, that we should be made the righteousnesse of God in him.
Den, som ikke kendte Synd, har han gjort til Synd for os, for at vi skulle blive Guds Retfærdighed i ham.
