Apostelenes gerninger 4

¹ Men medens de talte til Folket, kom Præsterne og Høvedsmanden for Helligdommen og Saddukæerne over dem,

¹ As they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple guard and the Sadducees came up to them,

³ Og de lagde Hånd på dem og satte dem i Forvaring til den følgende Dag; thi det var allerede Aften.

³ And they laid hands on them and put them in jail until the next day, for it was already evening.

⁵ Men det skete Dagen derefter, at deres Rådsherrer og Ældste og skriftkloge forsamlede sig i Jerusalem,

⁵ On the next day, their rulers and elders and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem;

⁷ Og de stillede dem midt iblandt sig og spurgte: "Af hvad Magt eller i hvilket Navn have I gjort dette?"

⁷ When they had placed them in the center, they began to inquire, “By what power, or in what name, have you done this?”

⁹ Når vi i Dag forhøres angående denne Velgerning imod en vanfør Mand, om hvorved han er bleven helbredt;

⁹ if we are on trial today for a benefit done to a sick man, as to how this man has been made well,

¹¹ Han er den Sten, som blev agtet for intet af eder, I Bygningsmænd, men som er bleven til en Hovedhjørnesten.

¹¹ He is the stone which was rejected by you, the builders, but which became the chief corner stone.

¹³ Men da de så Peters og Johannes Frimodighed og kunde mærke, at de vare ulærde Mænd og Lægfolk, forundrede de sig, og de kendte dem, at de havde været med Jesus.

¹³ Now as they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus.

¹⁵ Men de bøde dem at træde ud fra Rådet og rådførte sig med hverandre og sagde:

¹⁵ But when they had ordered them to leave the Council, they began to confer with one another,

¹⁷ Men for at det ikke skal komme videre ud iblandt Folket, da lader os true dem til ikke mere at tale til noget Menneske i dette Navn."

¹⁷ But so that it will not spread any further among the people, let us warn them to speak no longer to any man in this name.”

¹⁹ Men Peter og Johannes svarede og sagde til dem: "Dømmer selv. om det er ret for Gud at lyde eder mere end Gud.

¹⁹ But Peter and John answered and said to them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to give heed to you rather than to God, you be the judge;

²¹ Men de truede dem end mere og løslode dem, da de ikke kunde udfinde, hvorledes de skulde straffe dem, for Folkets Skyld; thi alle priste Gud for det, som var sket.

²¹ When they had threatened them further, they let them go (finding no basis on which to punish them) on account of the people, because they were all glorifying God for what had happened;

²³ Da de nu vare løsladte, kom de til deres egne og fortalte dem alt, hvad Ypperstepræsterne og de Ældste havde sagt til dem.

²³ When they had been released, they went to their own companions and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.

²⁵ du, som har sagt ved din Tjener Davids Mund: "Hvorfor fnyste Hedninger, og Folkeslag oplagde forfængelige Råd?

²⁵ who by the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David Your servant, said,‘Why did the Gentiles rage,And the peoples devise futile things?

²⁷ Ja, de have i Sandhed forsamlet sig i denne Stad imod din hellige Tjener Jesus, hvem du har salvet, både Herodes og Pontius Pilatus tillige med Hedningerne og Israels Folkestammer

²⁷ For truly in this city there were gathered together against Your holy servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, along with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel,

²⁹ Og nu, Herre! se til deres Trusler, og giv dine Tjenere at tale dit Ord med al Frimodighed,

²⁹ And now, Lord, take note of their threats, and grant that Your bond-servants may speak Your word with all confidence,

³¹ Og da de havde bedt, rystedes Stedet, hvor de vare forsamlede; og de bleve alle fyldte med den Helligånd, og de talte Guds Ord med Frimodighed.

³¹ And when they had prayed, the place where they had gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God with boldness.

³³ Og med stor Kraft aflagde Apostlene Vidnesbyrdet om den Herres Jesu Opstandelse, og der var stor Nåde over dem alle.

³³ And with great power the apostles were giving testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and abundant grace was upon them all.

³⁵ og lagde dem for Apostlenes Fødder; men der blev uddelt til enhver, efter hvad han havde Trang til.

³⁵ and lay them at the apostles’ feet, and they would be distributed to each as any had need.

³⁷ som ejede en Jordlod, solgte den og bragte Pengene og lagde dem for Apostlenes Fødder. 

³⁷ and who owned a tract of land, sold it and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
