Wikipedia Info:
The first complete translation of the Bible into Danish was Christian III's Bible from 1550, which was a direct translation of Martin Luther's Bible. It became the official Danish Bible for about half a century, albeit with small revisions in subsequent editions endorsed by later Danish kings such as Frederick II (1589) and Christian IV (1633).
