1 Peter 1
1 Peter, an emissary of Yeshua the Messiah, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Diaspora in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
Peter, Jesu Kristi Apostel, til Udlændingene i Adspredelse i Pontus, Galatien, Kappadokien, Asien og Bithynien,
2 according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Yeshua the Messiah and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
udvalgte efter Gud Faders Forudviden, ved Aandens Helligelse, til Lydighed og Bestænkelse med Jesu Kristi Blod: Naade og Fred vorde eder mangfoldig til Del!
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Yeshua the Messiah from the dead,
Lovet være Gud og vor Herres Jesu Kristi Fader, som efter sin store Barmhjertighed har genfødt os til et levende Haab ved Jesu Kristi Opstandelse fra de døde,
4 to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn’t fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
til en uforkrænkelig og ubesmittelig og uvisnelig Arv, som er bevaret i Himlene til eder,
5 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
I, som ved Guds Kraft bevogtes ved Tro til en Frelse, som er rede til at aabenbares i den sidste Tid,
6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials,
i hvilken I skulle fryde eder, om I end nu en liden Stund, hvis saa skal være, bedrøves i mange Haande Prøvelser,
7 that the proof of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes, even though it is tested by fire, may be found to result in praise, glory, and honour at the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah—
for at eders prøvede Tro, som er meget dyrebarere end det forgængelige Guld, der dog prøves ved Ild, maa findes til Ros og Herlighed og Ære i Jesu Kristi Aabenbarelse,
8 whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,
ham, som I ikke have set og dog elske, ham, som I, skønt I nu ikke se, men tro, skulle fryde eder over med en uudsigelig og forherliget Glæde,
9 receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
naar I naa Maalet for eders Tro, Sjælenes Frelse.
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently. They prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
Om denne Frelse have Profeter gransket og ransaget, de, som profeterede om den Naade, der skulde blive eder til Del,
11 searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Messiah which was in them pointed to when he predicted the sufferings of Messiah and the glories that would follow them.
idet de granskede over, hvilken eller hvordan en Tid Kristi Aand, som var i dem, henviste til, naar den forud vidnede om Kristi Lidelser og den derpaa følgende Herlighed.
12 To them it was revealed that they served not themselves, but you, in these things, which now have been announced to you through those who preached the Good News to you by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.
Og det blev dem aabenbaret, at det ikke var dem selv, men eder, de tjente med disse Ting, som nu ere blevne eder kundgjorte ved dem, der have forkyndt eder Evangeliet i den Helligaand, som blev sendt fra Himmelen, hvilke Ting Engle begære at skue ind i.
13 Therefore prepare your minds for action. Be sober, and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah—
Derfor, binder op om eders Sinds Lænder, være ædrue, og sætter fuldt ud eders Haab til den Naade, som bliver eder til Del i Jesu Kristi Aabenbarelse.
14 as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,
Som lydige Børn skulle I ikke skikke eder efter de forrige Lyster i eders Vankundighed;
15 but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behaviour,
men efter den hellige, som kaldte eder, skulle ogsaa I vorde hellige i al eders Vandel;
16 because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
thi der er skrevet: „I skulle være hellige, thi jeg er hellig.‟
17 If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judges according to each man’s work, pass the time of your living as foreigners here in reverent fear,
Og dersom I paakalde ham som Fader, der dømmer uden Persons Anseelse efter enhvers Gerning, da bør I vandre i Frygt eders Udlændigheds Tid,
18 knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things like silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,
vel vidende, at det ikke var med forkrænkelige Ting, Sølv eller Guld, at I bleve løskøbte fra eders tomme Vandel, som var overleveret eder fra Fædrene,
19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish or spot, the blood of Messiah,
men med Kristi dyrebare Blod som et lydeløst og uplettet Lams,
20 who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,
han, som var forud kendt før Verdens Grundlæggelse, men blev aabenbaret ved Tidernes Ende for eders Skyld,
21 who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God.
der ved ham tro paa Gud, som oprejste ham fra de døde og gav ham Herlighed, saa at eders Tro ogsaa er Haab til Gud.
22 Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from the heart fervently,
Lutrer eders Sjæle i Lydighed imod Sandheden til uskrømtet Broderkærlighed, og elsker hverandre inderligt af Hjertet,
23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever. (aiōn g165)
genfødte, som I ere, ikke af forkrænkelig, men af uforkrænkelig Sæd, ved Guds levende og blivende Ord. (aiōn g165)
24 For, “All flesh is like grass, and all of man’s glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;
Thi „alt Kød er som Græs, og al dets Herlighed som Græssets Blomst; Græsset visner, og Blomsten falder af;
