Acts 2
1 And on the day of Pentecost they were all together in one place.
Og da Pinsefestens Dag kom, vare de alle endrægtigt forsamlede.
2 And suddenly there came out of heaven a sound, as of a rushing mighty wind; and it filled the whole house where they were sitting;
Og der kom pludseligt fra Himmelen en Lyd som af et fremfarende vældigt Vejr og fyldte hele Huset, hvor de sade.
3 and there appeared to them tongues as of fire, distributing themselves; and one sat upon each of them.
Og der viste sig for dem Tunger som af Ild, der fordelte sig og satte sig paa hver enkelt af dem.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, even as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Og de bleve alle fyldte med den Helligaand, og de begyndte at tale i andre Tungemaal, efter hvad Aanden gav dem at udsige.
5 Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
Men der var Jøder, bosiddende i Jerusalem, gudfrygtige Mænd af alle Folkeslag under Himmelen.
6 And when this sound took place, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because every one heard them speaking in his own language.
Da denne Lyd kom, strømmede Mængden sammen og blev forvirret; thi hver enkelt hørte dem tale paa hans eget Maal.
7 And they were amazed, and marveled, saying, Behold, are not all these who speak Galilaeans?
Og de forbavsedes alle og undrede sig og sagde: „Se, ere ikke alle disse, som tale, Galilæere?
8 and how is it that we every one hear them in our own language, wherein we were born?
Hvor kunne vi da høre dem tale, hver paa vort eget Maal, hvori vi ere fødte,
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, Judaea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
Parthere og Medere og Elamiter, og vi, som høre hjemme i Mesopotamien, Judæa og Kappadokien, Pontus og Asien,
10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and Romans who sojourn here, both Jews and Proselytes,
i Frygien og Pamfylien, Ægypten og Libyens Egne ved Kyrene, og vi her boende Romere,
11 Cretans and Arabians—how is it that we hear them speaking in our tongues the wonderful works of God?
Jøder og Proselyter, Kretere og Arabere, vi høre dem tale om Guds store Gerninger i vore Tungemaal?”
12 And they were all amazed and were in doubt, saying one to another, What can this mean?
Og de forbavsedes alle og vare tvivlraadige og sagde den ene til den anden: „Hvad kan dette være?”
13 Others making sport of it, said, They are full of new wine.
Men andre sagde spottende: „De ere fulde af sød Vin.”
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Men of Judea, and all that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words.
Da stod Peter frem med de elleve og opløftede sin Røst og talte til dem: „I jødiske Mænd og alle I, som bo i Jerusalem! dette være eder vitterligt, og laaner Øre til mine Ord!
15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose; for it is the third hour of the day;
Thi disse ere ikke drukne, som I mene; det er jo den tredje Time paa Dagen;
16 but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel,
men dette er, hvad der er sagt ved Profeten Joel:
17 “It shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams;
„Og det skal ske i de sidste Dage, siger Gud, da vil jeg udgyde af min Aand over alt Kød; og eders Sønner og eders Døtre skulle profetere, og de unge iblandt eder skulle se Syner, og de gamle iblandt eder skulle have Drømme.
18 and even on my servants, and on my handmaids, I will pour out of my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
Ja, endog over mine Trælle og over mine Trælkvinder vil jeg i de Dage udgyde af min Aand, og de skulle profetere.
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;
Og jeg vil lade ske Undere paa Himmelen oventil og Tegn paa Jorden nedentil, Blod og Ild og rygende Damp.
20 the sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord cometh, the great and notable day.
Solen skal forvandles til Mørke og Maanen til Blod, førend Herrens store og herlige Dag kommer.
21 And it shall be that every one that calleth on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Og det skal ske, enhver, som paakalder Herrens Navn, skal frelses.” —
22 Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God to you by miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God wrought by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves know, —
I israelitiske Mænd! hører disse Ord: Jesus af Nazareth, en Mand, som fra Gud var godtgjort for eder ved kraftige Gerninger og Undere og Tegn, hvilke Gud gjorde ved ham midt iblandt eder, som I jo selv vide,
23 this man, being delivered up by the settled purpose and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of godless men, crucified and slew.
ham, som efter Guds bestemte Raadslutning og Forudviden var bleven forraadt, ham have I ved lovløses Haand korsfæstet og ihjelslaaet.
24 But God raised him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it.
Men Gud oprejste ham, idet han gjorde Ende paa Dødens Veer, eftersom det ikke var muligt, at han kunde fastholdes af den.
25 For David saith concerning him, “I saw the Lord always before me; because he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Thi David siger med Henblik paa ham: „Jeg havde altid Herren for mine Øjne; thi han er ved min højre Haand, for at jeg ikke skal rokkes.
26 Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue exulted; moreover also, my flesh shall dwell in hope;
Derfor glædede mit Hjerte sig, og min Tunge jublede, ja, ogsaa mit Kød skal bo i Haab;
27 because thou wilt not abandon my soul to the underworld, nor wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
thi du skal ikke lade min Sjæl tilbage i Dødsriget, ikke heller tilstede din hellige at se Forraadnelse. (Hadēs g86)
28 Thou didst make known to me the ways of life; thou wilt make me full of joy with thy countenance.”
Du har kundgjort mig Livets Veje; du skal fylde mig med Glæde for dit Aasyn.”
29 Brethren, I may speak to you with freedom of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us to this day.
I Mænd, Brødre! Jeg kan sige med Frimodighed til eder om Patriarken David, at han er baade død og begraven, og hans Grav er hos os indtil denne Dag.
30 Being then a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that he would set one sprung from his loins upon his throne,
Da han nu var en Profet og vidste, at Gud med Ed havde tilsvoret ham, at af hans Lænds Frugt skulde en sidde paa hans Trone,
31 he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that neither was he abandoned to the underworld, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
talte han, forudseende, om Kristi Opstandelse, at hverken blev han ladt tilbage i Dødsriget, ej heller saa hans Kød Forraadnelse. (Hadēs g86)
32 This Jesus God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
Denne Jesus oprejste Gud, hvorom vi alle ere Vidner.
33 Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye both see and hear.
Efter at nu han ved Guds højre Haand er ophøjet og af Faderen har faaet den Helligaands Forjættelse, har han udgydt denne, hvilket I baade se og høre.
34 For David did not ascend into the heavens; but he himself saith, The Lord said to my lord, “Sit thou on my right hand,
Thi David for ikke op til Himmelen; men han siger selv: „Herren sagde til min Herre: Sæt dig ved min højre Haand,
35 until I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
indtil jeg faar lagt dine Fjender som en Skammel for dine Fødder.”
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified.
Derfor skal hele Israels Hus vide for vist, at denne Jesus, hvem I korsfæstede, har Gud gjort baade til Herre og til Kristus.”
37 And when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what must we do?
Men da de hørte dette, stak det dem i Hjertet, og de sagde til Peter og de øvrige Apostle: „I Mænd, Brødre! hvad skulle vi gøre?”
38 But Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized to the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Men Peter sagde til dem: „Omvender eder, og hver af eder lade sig døbe paa Jesu Kristi Navn til eders Synders Forladelse; og I skulle faa den Helligaands Gave.
39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.
Thi for eder er Forjættelsen og for eders Børn og for alle dem, som ere langt borte, saa mange som Herren vor Gud vil tilkalde.”
40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.
Ogsaa med mange andre Ord vidnede han for dem og formanede dem, idet han sagde: „Lader eder frelse fra denne vanartede Slægt!”
41 They therefore received his word, and were baptized; and there were added on that day about three thousand souls.
De, som nu toge imod hans Ord, bleve døbte; og der føjedes samme Dag omtrent tre Tusinde Sjæle til.
42 And they were constantly attending on the teaching of the apostles, and the imparting [[of their substance]], the breaking of bread, and the prayers.
Og de holdt fast ved Apostlenes Lære og Samfundet, Brødets Brydelse og Bønnerne.
43 And fear came upon every soul; and many wonders and signs were wrought through the apostles.
Men der kom Frygt over enhver Sjæl, og der skete mange Undere og Tegn ved Apostlene.
44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
Og alle de troende holdt sig sammen og havde alle Ting fælles.
45 and they sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as any one had need.
Og de solgte deres Ejendom og Gods og delte det ud iblandt alle, efter hvad enhver havde Trang til.
46 And attending daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread in a private house, they partook of their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
Og idet de hver Dag vedholdende og endrægtigt kom i Helligdommen og brød Brødet hjemme, fik de deres Føde med Fryd og i Hjertets Enfold,
47 praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were in the way of salvation.
idet de lovede Gud og havde Yndest hos hele Folket. Men Herren føjede daglig til dem nogle, som lode sig frelse.
