1 Corinthians 11
1 [Follow my example], just like I [try to] follow Christ’s example.
Varen I mina efterföljare, såsom jag är Kristi.
2 I praise you because you remember all the things [that I taught you] and because you follow the instructions that I gave you. You have done just like I told you to do.
Jag prisar eder för det att I i alla stycken haven mig i minne och hållen fast vid mina lärdomar, såsom de äro eder givna av mig.
3 [Now], I want you to know that the one who has authority over [MTY] every man is Christ, and the ones who have authority over women are men (OR, their husbands), and the one who has authority over Christ is God.
Men jag vill att I skolen inse detta, att Kristus är envar mans huvud, och att mannen är kvinnans huvud, och att Gud är Kristi huvud.
4 [So] if any man [wears a covering over] his head when he prays or speaks a message God gave him, he disgraces himself [SYN].
Var och en man som har sitt huvud betäckt, när han beder eller profeterar, han vanärar sitt huvud.
5 Also, if any woman does not wear a covering over her head when she prays or speaks a message that God gave her, she disgraces herself (OR, she dishonors her husband). That would be acting like [SIM] [women who are ashamed because] their heads have been shaved.
Men var kvinna som beder eller profeterar med ohöljt huvud, hon vanärar sitt huvud, ty det är då alldeles som om hon hade sitt hår avrakat.
6 So, if women do not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], they should let someone shave their heads [so that they will be ashamed]. But since women are ashamed if someone cuts their hair [short] or shaves off their hair, they should wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them].
Om en kvinna icke vill hölja sig, så kan hon lika väl låta skära av sitt hår; men eftersom det är en skam för en kvinna att låta skära av sitt hår eller att låta raka av det, så må hon hölja sig.
7 Men should not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], because they represent what God is like [MET] and they show how great God is. But women show how great men (OR, their husbands) are.
En man är icke pliktig att hölja sitt huvud, eftersom han är Guds avbild och återspeglar hans härlighet, då kvinnan däremot återspeglar mannens härlighet.
8 [Remember that God intends that men have authority over women. We know that] because [God] did not make [the first] man, [Adam], from the [first] woman, [Eve]. Instead, he made that woman [from a bone that he took] from the man.
Ty mannen är icke av kvinnan, utan kvinnan av mannen.
9 Also, [God] did not create [the first] man [to help] the woman. Instead, [he] created the woman [to help] the man.
Icke heller skapades mannen för kvinnans skull, utan kvinnan för mannens skull.
10 For that reason, women should wear something [to cover] their heads [as a symbol of their being under their husbands’] [MTY] authority. They should also [cover their heads] so that the angels [will see that and rejoice].
Därför bör kvinnan på sitt huvud hava en »makt», för änglarnas skull.
11 However, remember that [even though God created the first] woman from [the first] man, all other men [have been born] from women. So men cannot be independent of women, nor can women be independent of men. But all things, [including men and women], come from God.
Dock är det i Herren så, att varken kvinnan är till utan mannen, eller mannen utan kvinnan.
Ty såsom kvinnan är av mannen, så är ock mannen genom kvinnan; men alltsammans är av Gud. --
13 Consider this for yourselves: Is it proper for [RHQ] women to pray to God while they do not have coverings over their heads?
Dömen själva: höves det en kvinnan att ohöljd bedja till Gud?
14 (Everyone senses that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair./Doesn’t everyone sense that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair?) [RHQ]
Lär icke själva naturen eder att det länder en man till vanheder, om han har långt hår,
15 But it is very delightful if women have long hair, because [God] gave them long hair to be like a [beautiful] covering [for their heads].
men att det länder en kvinna till ära, om hon har långt hår? Håret är ju henne givet såsom slöja.
16 But whoever wants to argue [with me about my saying that women should have a covering over their heads when they pray or speak a message from God should consider the fact that] we [apostles] do not [permit] any other custom, and the [other] congregations of God do not have any other custom.
Om nu likväl någon vill vara genstridig, så mån han veta att vi för vår del icke hava en sådan sedvänja, ej heller andra Guds församlingar.
17 Now I want to tell you [about some other things]. I do not praise you about them, because whenever you believers meet together, good [things do not happen]. Instead, bad things [happen].
Detta bjuder jag eder nu. Men vad jag icke kan prisa är att I kommen tillsammans, icke till förbättring, utan till försämring.
18 First of all, people have told me that when you gather together as a group [to worship God], you divide into groups [that are hostile to each other]. To some extent I believe that is true.
Ty först och främst hör jag sägas att vid edra församlingsmöten söndringar yppa sig bland eder. Och till en del tror jag att så är.
19 It seems that you must divide into [groups that despise each other] in order that it might be clear/evident which people among you [God] approves of!
Ty partier måste ju finnas bland eder, för att det skall bliva uppenbart vilka bland eder som hålla provet.
20 When you gather together, you [IRO] eat the meal [that you say is to remember the death of] the Lord [Jesus for us].
När I alltså kommen tillsammans med varandra, kan ingen Herrens måltid hållas;
21 But [what happens when] you eat is that each person eats his own meal before [he thinks about sharing his food with anyone else]. As a result, [when the meal is over], some people are [still] hungry and others are drunk! [So it is not a meal that honors the Lord].
ty vid måltiden tager var och en i förväg själv den mat han har medfört, och så får den ene hungra, medan den andre får för mycket.
22 ([You act as though] you do not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]!/Do you not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]?) [RHQ] Do you not realize [RHQ] [that by acting selfishly in this way], it is God’s people whom you are despising, and it is the poor people [in your group] whom you are treating as though they were not important? What shall I say to you about that [RHQ]? Do [you expect] me to praise you [about what you do] [RHQ]? I certainly will not praise you!
Haven I då icke edra hem, där I kunnen äta ock dricka? Eller är det så, att I förakten Guds församling och viljen komma dem att blygas, som intet hava? Vad skall jag då säga till eder? Skall jag prisa eder? Nej, i detta stycke prisar jag eder icke.
23 The Lord taught me these things that I also taught you: During the night that Jesus was betrayed {[Judas] enabled [the enemies of] the Lord Jesus to seize him}, he took some bread.
Ty jag har från Herren undfått detta, som jag ock har meddelat eder: I den natt då Herren Jesus blev förrådd tog han ett bröd
24 After he thanked God for it, he broke it into pieces. [Then he gave it to his disciples] and said, “This bread [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my body, that [I am about to sacrifice] for you. Eat bread in this [way again and again] to remember my [offering myself as a sacrifice for you].”
och tackade Gud och bröt det och sade: »Detta är min lekamen, som varder utgiven för eder. Gören detta till min åminnelse.»
25 Similarly, after they ate their meal, he took a cup [MTY] [of wine]. He [thanked God for it. Then he gave it to his disciples], saying, “[The wine in] [MTY] this cup [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my blood [that will flow from my body] ([to put into effect/to establish]) the new agreement [that God is making with people]. Whenever you drink wine in this way, do it to remember that [my blood flowed for you].”
Sammalunda tog han ock kalken, efter måltiden, och sade: »Denna kalk är det nya förbundet, i mitt blod. Så ofta I dricken den, så gören detta till min åminnelse.»
26 [Remember that] until the Lord [Jesus] returns [to the earth], whenever you eat the [bread that represents his body] and drink the wine [MTY] [that represents his blood], you are telling other people that he died [for you].
Ty så ofta I äten detta bröd och dricken kalken, förkunnen I Herrens död, till dess att han kommer.
27 So, those who eat that bread and drink that wine [MTY] in a way that is not proper [for those who belong to the Lord] are guilty of [acting in a way that is contrary to what] our [Lord intended when he offered] his body [as a sacrifice] and his blood [flowed when he died].
Den som nu på ett ovärdigt sätt äter detta bröd eller dricker Herrens kalk, han försyndar sig på Herrens lekamen och blod.
28 Before any believer eats that bread and drinks that wine [MTY], he should think carefully about [what he is doing],
Pröve då människan sig själv, och äte så av brödet och dricke av kalken.
29 because if anyone eats [the bread that represents Christ’s body] and drinks [the wine that represents his blood] without recognizing that all God’s [people should be united, God will] punish him [for doing that].
Ty den som äter och dricker, utan att göra åtskillnad mellan Herrens lekamen och annan spis, han äter och dricker en dom över sig.
30 Many people in your group are weak and sick, and several have died [EUP] because of [the way they acted when they ate that bread and drank that wine].
Därför finnas ock bland eder många som äro svaga och sjuka, och ganska många äro avsomnade.
31 If we would think carefully about what we [are doing], [God] would not judge [and punish] us [like that].
Om vi ginge till doms med oss själva, så bleve vi icke dömda.
32 But when the Lord judges [and punishes] us [for acting wrongly], he disciplines us [to correct us], in order that he will not [need to] punish us when he punishes [the people who do not trust in Christ] [MTY].
Men då vi nu bliva dömda, så är detta en Herrens tuktan, som drabbar oss, för att vi icke skola bliva fördömda tillika med världen.
33 So, my fellow believers, when you gather together to eat [food to remember the Lord’s dying for you], wait until everyone [has arrived so that you can find out who does not have enough food].
Alltså, mina bröder, när I kommen tillsammans för att hålla måltid, så vänten på varandra.
34 Those who are so hungry [that they cannot wait to eat until everyone else has arrived] should eat in their own homes [first], in order that when you gather together God will not judge [and punish them for] ([being inconsiderate of/not being concerned about]) [others]. And when I come [to Corinth] I will give you instructions about other matters [concerning the Lord’s Supper].
Om någon är hungrig, då må han äta hemma, så att eder sammankomst icke bliver eder till en dom. Om det övriga skall jag förordna, när jag kommer.
