Romerne 10
1 Brødre! mit Hjertes Ønske og Bøn til Gud for dem er om deres Frelse.
Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for them, that they may be saved.
2 Thi jeg giver dem det Vidnesbyrd, at de have Nidkærhed for Gud, men ikke med Forstand;
For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
3 thi da de ikke kendte Guds. Retfærdighed og tragtede efter at opstille deres egen Retfærdighed, så bøjede de sig ikke under Guds Retfærdighed.
For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God.
4 Thi Kristus er Lovens Ende til Retfærdighed for hver den, som tror.
For Messiah is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
5 Moses skriver jo, at det Menneske, som gør den Retfærdighed, der er af Loven, skal leve ved den.
For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, "The one who does them will live by them."
6 Men Retfærdigheden af Tro siger således: Sig ikke i dit Hjerte: Hvem vil fare op til Himmelen? nemlig for at hente Kristus ned;
But the righteousness which is of faith says this, "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will go up into heaven?' (that is, to bring Messiah down);
or, 'Who will go down into the deep?' (that is, to bring Messiah up from the dead.)" (Abyssos g12)
8 Men hvad, siger den? Ordet er dig nær, i din Mund og i dit Hjerte, det er det Troens Ord, som vi prædike.
But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;" that is, the message of faith that we proclaim:
9 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.
If you acknowledge with your mouth that Yeshua is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 Thi med Hjertet tror man til Retfærdighed, og med Munden bekender man til Frelse.
For with the heart one believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth acknowledgment is made, resulting in salvation.
11 Skriften siger jo: "Hver den, som tror på ham, skal ikke blive til Skamme."
For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes in him will not be put to shame."
12 Thi der er ikke Forskel på Jøde og Græker; thi den samme er alles Herre, rig nok for alle dem, som påkalde ham.
For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord of all is rich to all who call on him.
13 Thi hver den, som påkalder Herrens Navn, skal blive frelst.
For, "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved."
14 Hvorledes skulde de nu påkalde den, på 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?
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a proclaimer?
15 og hvorledes skulde de prædike, dersom de ikke bleve udsendte? Som der er skrevet: "Hvor dejlige. ere deres Fødder, som forkynde godt Budskab."
And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news of peace, who bring good news of good things."
16 Dog ikke alle løde Evangeliet; thi Esajas siger: "Herre! hvem troede det, (han hørte af os?")
But they did not all listen to the Good News. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?"
17 Altså kommer Troen af det. som høres, men det, som høres, kommer igennem Kristi Ord.
So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Messiah.
18 Men jeg siger: Have de ikke hørt? Jo vist, "over hele Jorden er deres Røst udgået og til Jorderiges Grænser deres Ord."
But I ask, isn't it rather that they did not hear? On the contrary, "Their voice has gone out to all the earth, their words to the farthest parts of the world."
19 Men jeg siger: Har Israel ikke forstået det? Først siger Moses: "Jeg vil gøre eder nidkære på et Folk, som ikke er et Folk, imod et uforstandigt Folk vil jeg opirre eder."
But I ask, did not Israel know? First Moses says, "I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is not a people. I will make you angry with a foolish nation."
20 Men Esajas drister sig til at sige: "Jeg blev funden af dem, som ikke søgte mig; jeg blev åbenbar for dem. som ikke spurgte efter mig."
Isaiah is very bold, and says, "I was found by those who did not seek me. I was revealed to those who did not ask for me."
21 Men om Israel siger han: "Den hele Dag udstrakte jeg mine Hænder imod et ulydigt og genstridigt Folk."
But as to Israel he says, "All day long I have stretched out my hands to a disobedient and obstinate people."
