< Romans 10 >

1 Brothers, the pleasure indeed of my heart, and my supplication that [is] to God for Israel, is—for salvation;
Brødre! mit Hjertes Ønske og Bøn til Gud for dem er om deres Frelse.
2 for I bear them testimony that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge,
Thi jeg giver dem det Vidnesbyrd, at de have Nidkærhed for Gud, men ikke med Forstand;
3 for not knowing the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit to the righteousness of God.
thi da de ikke kendte Guds Retfærdighed og tragtede efter at opstille deres egen Retfærdighed, saa bøjede de sig ikke under Guds Retfærdighed.
4 For Christ is an end of law for righteousness to everyone who is believing,
Thi Kristus er Lovens Ende til Retfærdighed for hver den, som tror.
5 for Moses describes the righteousness that [is] of the Law, that, “The man who did them will live in them,”
Moses skriver jo, at det Menneske, som gør den Retfærdighed, der er af Loven, skal leve ved den.
6 and the righteousness of faith thus speaks: “You may not say in your heart, Who will go up to Heaven?” (that is, to bring Christ down)
Men Retfærdigheden af Tro siger saaledes: Sig ikke i dit Hjerte: Hvem vil fare op til Himmelen? nemlig for at hente Kristus ned;
7 or, “Who will go down to the abyss?” (that is, to bring up Christ out of the dead). (Abyssos g12)
eller: Hvem vil fare ned i Afgrunden? nemlig for at hente Kristus op fra de døde. (Abyssos g12)
8 But what does it say? “The saying is near you—in your mouth, and in your heart”: that is, the saying of the faith that we preach;
Men hvad siger den? Ordet er dig nær, i din Mund og i dit Hjerte, det er det Troens Ord, som vi prædike.
9 that if you may confess with your mouth that Jesus [is] LORD, and may believe in your heart that God raised Him out of the dead, you will be saved,
Thi dersom du med din Mund bekender Jesus som Herre og tror i dit Hjerte, at Gud oprejste ham fra de døde, da skal du blive frelst.
10 for with the heart [one] believes to righteousness, and with the mouth is confession made to salvation;
Thi med Hjertet tror man til Retfærdighed, og med Munden bekender man til Frelse.
11 for the Writing says, “Everyone who is believing on Him will not be ashamed,”
Skriften siger jo: „Hver den, som tror paa ham, skal ikke blive til Skamme.‟
12 for there is no difference between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord of all [is] rich to all those calling on Him,
Thi der er ikke Forskel paa Jøde og Græker; thi den samme er alles Herre, rig nok for alle dem, som paakalde ham.
13 for “Everyone who, if he may have called on the Name of the LORD, will be saved.”
Thi hver den, som paakalder Herrens Navn, skal blive frelst.
14 How then will they call on [Him] in whom they did not believe? And how will they believe [on Him] of whom they did not hear? And how will they hear apart from one preaching?
Hvorledes skulde de nu paakalde den, paa hvem de ikke have troet? og hvorledes skulde de tro den, som de ikke have hørt? og hvorledes skulde de høre, uden der er nogen, som prædiker?
15 And how will they preach, if they may not be sent? According as it has been written: “How beautiful the feet of those proclaiming good tidings of peace, of those proclaiming good tidings of the good things!”
og hvorledes skulde de prædike, dersom de ikke bleve udsendte? Som der er skrevet: „Hvor dejlige ere deres Fødder, som forkynde godt Budskab.‟
16 But they were not all obedient to the good tidings, for Isaiah says, “LORD, who gave credence to our report?”
Dog ikke alle løde Evangeliet; thi Esajas siger: „Herre! hvem troede det, han hørte af os?‟
17 So then faith [is] by a report, and the report through a saying of God,
Altsaa kommer Troen af det, som høres, men det, som høres, kommer igennem Kristi Ord.
18 but I say, did they not hear? Yes, indeed, “their voice went forth to all the earth, and their sayings to the ends of the habitable world.”
Men jeg siger: Have de ikke hørt? Jo vist, „over hele Jorden er deres Røst udgaaet og til Jorderiges Grænser deres Ord.‟
19 But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says, “I will provoke you to jealousy by [that which is] not a nation, By an unintelligent nation I will anger you,”
Men jeg siger: Har Israel ikke forstaaet det? Først siger Moses: „Jeg vil gøre eder nidkære paa et Folk, som ikke er et Folk, imod et uforstandigt Folk vil jeg opirre eder.‟
20 and Isaiah is very bold and says, “I was found by those not seeking Me; I became visible to those not inquiring after Me”;
Men Esajas drister sig til at sige: „Jeg blev funden af dem, som ikke søgte mig; jeg blev aabenbar for dem, som ikke spurgte efter mig.‟
21 and to Israel He says, “All the day I stretched out My hands to a people unbelieving and contradicting.”
Men om Israel siger han: „Den hele Dag udstrakte jeg mine Hænder imod et ulydigt og genstridigt Folk.‟
