1 Corinthians 8
1 Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
Za mališke žrtve pa vemo, ker imamo vsi znanje. Znanje napihuje, a ljubezen zbuja pobožnost.
2 But if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he doesn’t yet know as he ought to know.
Če kdo misli, da kaj ve, nikakor ni spoznal, kako je treba spoznati.
3 But anyone who loves God is known by him.
Če pa kdo ljubi Boga, ta je spoznan od njega.
4 Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in the world, and that there is no other God but one.
Za jedenje maliških žrtev torej vemo, da malik ni nič na svetu, in da ni drugega boga razen enega.
5 For though there are things that are called “gods”, whether in the heavens or on earth—as there are many “gods” and many “lords”—
Kajti če tudi so, kteri se imenujejo bogovi, bodi si na nebu, bodi si na zemlji, (kakor je bogov mnogo in gospodov mnogo, )
6 yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we live through him.
Ali za nas je eden Bog oče, od kterega je vse in mi v njem; in eden Gospod Jezus Kristus, po kterem je vse in mi po njem.
7 However, that knowledge isn’t in all men. But some, with consciousness of an idol until now, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
Ali ni v vseh znanja, kajti nekteri v svesti si, da je malik kaj, noter od seh dob, kakor mališke žrtve jedó in njih vest, ker je slaba, skruni se.
8 But food will not commend us to God. For neither, if we don’t eat are we the worse, nor if we eat are we the better.
Jed pa nas ne dela prijetnih pred Bogom; kajti če jemo, nismo nič veči, niti manjši, če ne jemo.
9 But be careful that by no means does this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to the weak.
Gletje pa, da kako ta vaša oblast ne postane spotika slabim.
10 For if a man sees you who have knowledge sitting in an idol’s temple, won’t his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?
Kajti če kdo ugleda tebe, kteri imaš znanje, v mališkej cerkvi ležati za mizo, jeli se ne bo njegova vest, ker je slab, zbujala na jedenje maliških žrtev?
11 And through your knowledge, he who is weak perishes, the brother for whose sake Christ died.
In pogubil se bo po tvojem znanji ta slabi brat za kterega je Kristus umrl?
12 Thus, sinning against the brothers, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.
Tako grešeč zoper brate in bijoč njih slabo vest grešite, zoper Kristusa.
