Romans 10
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and my request to God is for them, for their salvation.
Brødre! mit Hjertes Ønske og Bøn til Gud for dem er om deres Frelse.
2 For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
Thi jeg giver dem det Vidnesbyrd, at de have Nidkærhed for Gud, men ikke med Forstand;
3 For they do not know of God's righteousness, and they seek 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 the fulfillment of the law for righteousness for everyone who believes.
Thi Kristus er Lovens Ende til Retfærdighed for hver den, som tror.
5 For Moses writes about the righteousness that comes from the law: “The man who does the righteousness of the law will live by this righteousness.”
Moses skriver jo, at det Menneske, som gør den Retfærdighed, der er af Loven, skal leve ved den.
6 But the righteousness that comes from faith says this, “Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into 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 and do not say, 'Who will descend into the abyss?'” (that is, to bring Christ up from 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 word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart.” That is the word of faith, which we proclaim.
Men hvad siger den? Ordet er dig nær, i din Mund og i dit Hjerte, det er det Troens Ord, som vi prædike.
9 For if with your mouth you acknowledge Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from 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 man believes for righteousness, and with the mouth he acknowledges for salvation.
Thi med Hjertet tror man til Retfærdighed, og med Munden bekender man til Frelse.
11 For scripture says, “Everyone who believes on him will not be put to shame.”
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 is Lord of all, and he is rich to all who call upon 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 calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Thi hver den, som paakalder Herrens Navn, skal blive frelst.
14 How then can they call on him in whom they have not believed? How can they believe in him of whom they have not heard? How can they hear without a preacher?
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 Then how can they preach, unless they are sent?—As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who proclaim glad tidings of 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 did not all listen to the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”
Dog ikke alle løde Evangeliet; thi Esajas siger: „Herre! hvem troede det, han hørte af os?‟
17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
Altsaa kommer Troen af det, som høres, men det, som høres, kommer igennem Kristi Ord.
18 But I say, “Did they not hear?” Yes, most certainly. “Their sound has gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.”
Men jeg siger: Have de ikke hørt? Jo vist, „over hele Jorden er deres Røst udgaaet og til Jorderiges Grænser deres Ord.‟
19 Moreover, I say, “Did Israel not know?” First Moses says, “I will provoke you to jealousy by what is not a nation. By means of a nation without understanding, I will stir you up to anger.”
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 Then Isaiah was very bold when he says, “I was found by those who did not seek me. I appeared to those who did not ask for 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 But to Israel he says, “All the day long I reached out my hands to a disobedient and stubborn people.”
Men om Israel siger han: „Den hele Dag udstrakte jeg mine Hænder imod et ulydigt og genstridigt Folk.‟
