Acts 13

Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
Men i Antiokia, i den derværende Menighed, var der Profeter og Lærere, nemlig Barnabas og Simeon, med Tilnavn Niger, og Kyrenæeren Lukius og Manaen, en Fosterbroder af Fjerdingsfyrsten Herodes, og Saulus.
As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.
Medens de nu holdt Gudstjeneste og fastede, sagde den Helligånd: "Udtager mig Barnabas og Saulus til den Gerning, hvortil jeg har kaldet dem."
And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
Da fastede de og bade og lagde Hænderne på dem og lode dem fare.
So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
Da de nu således vare udsendte af den Helligånd, droge de ned til Seleukia og sejlede derfra til Kypern.
And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their minister.
Og da de vare komne til Salamis, forkyndte de Guds Ord i Jødernes Synagoger; men de havde også Johannes til Medhjælper.
And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus:
Og da de vare dragne igennem hele Øen indtil Pafus, fandt de en Troldkarl, en falsk Profet, en Jøde, hvis Navn var Barjesus.
Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.
Han var hos Statholderen Sergius Paulus, en forstandig Mand. Denne kaldte Barnabas og Saulus til sig og attråede at høre Guds Ord.
But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
Men Elimas, Troldkarlen, (thi dette betyder hans Navn), stod dem imod og søgte at vende Statholderen bort fra Troen.
Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,
Men Saulus, som også kaldes Paulus, blev fyldt med den Helligånd, så fast på ham og sagde:
And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
"O, du Djævelens Barn, fuld af al Svig og al Underfundighed, du Fjende af al Retfærdighed! vil du ikke holde op med at forvende Herrens de lige Veje?
And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
Og nu se, Herrens Hånd er over dig, og du skal blive blind og til en Tid ikke se Solen." Men straks faldt der Mulm og Mørke over ham, og han gik omkring og søgte efter nogen, som kunde lede ham.
Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
Da Statholderen så det, som var sket, troede han, slagen af Forundring over Herrens Lære.
Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.
Paulus og de, som vare med ham, sejlede da ud fra Pafus og kom til Perge i Pamfylien. Men Johannes skiltes fra dem og vendte tilbage til Jerusalem.
But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.
Men de droge videre fra Perge og kom til Antiokia i Pisidien og gik ind i Synagogen på Sabbatsdagen og satte sig.
And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
Men efter Forelæsningen af Loven og Profeterne sendte Synagogeforstanderne Bud hen til dem og lode sige: "I Mænd, Brødre! have I noget Formaningsord til Folket, da siger frem!"
Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
Men Paulus stod op og slog til Lyd med Hånden og sagde: "I israelitiske Mænd og I, som frygte Gud, hører til!
The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.
Dette Folks, Israels Gud udvalgte vore Fædre og ophøjede Folket i Udlændigheden i Ægyptens Land og førte dem derfra med løftet Arm.
And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.
Og omtrent fyrretyve År tålte han deres Færd i Ørkenen.
And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
Og han udryddede syv Folk i Kanåns Land og fordelte disses Land iblandt dem,
And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.
og derefter i omtrent fire Hundrede og halvtredsindstyve År gav han dem Dommere indtil Profeten Samuel.
And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.
Og derefter bade de om en Konge; og Gud gav dem Saul, Kis's Søn, en Mand af Benjamins Stamme, i fyrretyve År.
And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.
Og da han havde taget ham bort, oprejste han dem David til Konge, om hvem han også vidnede, og sagde: "Jeg har fundet David, Isajs Søn, en Mand efter mit Hjerte, som skal gøre al min Villie."
Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
Af dennes Sæd bragte Gud efter Forjættelsen Israel en Frelser, Jesus,
When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
efter at Johannes forud for hans Fremtræden havde prædiket Omvendelses-Dåb for hele Israels Folk.
And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
Men da Johannes var ved at fuldende sit Løb, sagde han: "Hvad anse I mig for at være? Mig er det ikke; men se, der kommer en efter mig, hvis Sko jeg ikke er værdig at løse."
Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
I Mænd, Brødre, Sønner af Abrahams Slægt, og de iblandt eder, som frygte Gud! Til os er Ordet om denne Frelse sendt.
For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
Thi de, som bo i Jerusalem, og deres Rådsherrer kendte ham ikke; de dømte ham og opfyldte derved Profeternes Ord, som forelæses hver Sabbat.
And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.

And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.
Men da de havde fuldbragt alle Ting, som ere skrevne om ham, toge de ham ned af Træet og lagde ham i en Grav.
But God raised him from the dead:
Men Gud oprejste ham fra de døde,
And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
og han blev set i flere Dage af dem, som vare gåede med ham op fra Galilæa til Jerusalem, dem, som nu ere hans Vidner for Folket.
And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,
Og vi forkynde eder den Forjættelse, som blev given til Fædrene, at Gud har opfyldt denne for os, deres Børn, idet han oprejste Jesus;
God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
som der også er skrevet i den anden Salme: "Du er min Søn, jeg har født dig i Dag."
And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.
Men at han har oprejst ham fra de døde, så at han ikke mere skal vende tilbage til Forrådnelse, derom har han sagt således: "Jeg vil give eder Davids hellige Forjættelser, de trofaste."
Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
Thi han siger også i en anden Salme: "Du skal ikke tilstede din hellige at se Forrådnelse."
For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
David sov jo hen, da han i sin Livstid havde tjent Guds Rådslutning, og han blev henlagt hos sine Fædre og så Forrådnelse;
But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
men den, som Gud oprejste, så ikke Forrådnelse.
Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:
Så være det eder vitterligt, I Mænd, Brødre! at ved ham forkyndes der eder Syndernes Forladelse;
And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
og fra alt, hvorfra I ikke kunde retfærdiggøres ved Mose Lov, retfærdiggøres ved ham enhver, som tror.
Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
Ser nu til, at ikke det, som er sagt ved Profeterne, kommer over eder:
Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.
"Ser, I Foragtere, og forundrer eder og bliver til intet; thi en Gerning gør jeg i eders Dage, en Gerning, som I ikke vilde tro, dersom nogen fortalte eder den."
And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
Men da de gik ud, bad man dem om, at disse Ord måtte blive talte til dem på den følgende Sabbat.
Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
Men da Forsamlingen var opløst, fulgte mange af Jøderne og af de gudfrygtige Proselyter Paulus og Barnabas, som talte til dem og formanede dem til at blive fast ved Guds Nåde.
And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.
Men på den følgende Sabbat forsamledes næsten hele Byen for at høre Guds Ord.
But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
Men da Jøderne så Skarerne, bleve de fulde af Nidkærhed og modsagde det, som blev talt af Paulus, ja, både sagde imod og spottede.
Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
Men Paulus og Barnabas talte frit ud og sagde: "Det var nødvendigt, at Guds Ord først skulde tales til eder; men efterdi I støde det fra eder og ikke agte eder selv værdige til det evige Liv, se, så vende vi os til Hedningerne.
For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.
Thi således har Herren befalet os: "Jeg har sat dig til Hedningers Lys, for at du skal være til Frelse lige ud til Jordens Ende."
And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.
Men da Hedningerne hørte dette, bleve de glade og priste Herrens Ord, og de troede, så mange, som vare bestemte til evigt Liv,
And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
og Herrens Ord udbredtes over hele Landet.
But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.
Men Jøderne ophidsede de fornemme gudfrygtige Kvinder og de første Mænd i Byen; og de vakte en Forfølgelse imod Paulus og Barnabas og joge dem ud fra deres Grænser.
But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.
