Pāvila 1. Vēstule Korintiešiem 11
1 Dzenaties man pakaļ, tā kā es Kristum.
Imitate me, as I myself imitate Christ.
2 Un es jūs slavēju, brāļi, ka jūs visās lietās mani pieminat un turat tās mācības, kā jums tās esmu mācījis.
I praise you, indeed, because you never forget me, and are keeping my injunctions in mind, exactly as I laid them on you.
3 Bet es gribu, ka jūs zināt, ka ikkatra vīra galva ir Kristus, bet sievas galva ir vīrs, bet Kristus galva ir Dievs.
But I am anxious that you should understand that the Christ is the head of every man, that man is the head of woman, and that God is the head of the Christ.
4 Ikviens vīrs, kas Dievu lūgdams vai mācīdams apsegu tur uz galvas, apkauno savu galvu.
Any man who keeps his head covered, when praying or preaching in public, dishonours him who is his head;
5 Bet ikviena sieva ar neapsegtu galvu Dievu lūgdama vai mācīdama, apkauno savu galvu. Jo tas tikpat, tā kā tā būtu apcirpta.
while any woman, who prays or preaches in public bare-headed, dishonours him who is her head; for that is to make herself like one of the shameless women who shave their heads.
6 Jo ja sieva neapsedzās, tad lai tā arī top apcirpta. Bet kad nu tas sievai par kaunu, ka tā ir apcirpta jeb plikgalve, tad lai tā apsedzās.
Indeed, if a woman does not keep her head covered, she may as well cut her hair short. But, since to cut her hair short, or shave it off, marks her as one of the shameless women, she should keep her head covered.
7 Bet vīram nebūs galvu apsegt, jo viņš ir Dieva ģīmis un gods; bet sieva ir vīra gods.
A man ought not to have his head covered, for he has been from the beginning the likeness of God and the reflection of his glory, but woman is the reflection of man’s glory.
8 Jo vīrs nav no sievas, bet sieva no vīra.
For it was not man who was taken from woman, but woman who was taken from man.
9 Un vīrs arī nav radīts sievas dēļ, bet sieva vīra dēļ.
Besides, man was not created for the sake of woman, but woman for the sake of man.
10 Tāpēc sievai būs valdnieka zīmi galvā turēt eņģeļu dēļ.
And, therefore, a woman ought to wear on her head a symbol of her subjection, because of the presence of the angels.
11 Tomēr nedz vīrs ir bez sievas, nedz sieva bez vīra iekš Tā Kunga.
Still, when in union with the Lord, woman is not independent of man, or man of woman;
12 Jo tā kā sieva ir no vīra, tāpat arī vīrs ir caur sievu; bet viss tas ir no Dieva.
for just as woman came from man, so man comes by means of woman; and all things come from God.
13 Spriežat paši, vai pieklājās, ka sieva Dievu lūdz neapsegta?
Judge for yourselves. Is it fitting that a woman should pray to God in public with her head uncovered?
14 Jeb vai pati daba jums nemāca, ka tas vīram par negodu, kad tam gari mati,
Does not nature herself teach us that, while for a man to wear his hair long is degrading to him,
15 Bet ja sievai gari mati: tad tas viņai par godu; jo mati viņai doti par apsegu.
a woman’s long hair is her glory? Her hair has been given her to serve as a covering.
16 Bet ja kāds grib par to tiepties: mums tāda ieraduma nav, nedz Dieva draudzēm.
If, however, anyone still thinks it right to contest the point – well, we have no such custom, nor have the churches of God.
17 Es jūs pamācu un to nevaru uzteikt, ka jūs sanākat ne par svētību, bet par nesvētību.
In giving directions on the next subject, I cannot praise you; because your meetings do more harm than good.
18 Jo pirmā kārtā, kad jūs sanākat draudzē, es dzirdu, ka šķelšanās ir jūsu starpā, un pa daļai to gan ticu.
To begin with, I am told that when you meet together as a church there are divisions among you. In part I believe this,
19 Jo šķelšanām gan vajag būt jūsu starpā, lai tie pastāvīgie jūsu starpā top zināmi.
indeed, there must be parties among you, so that the people of real worth become known.
20 Kad nu jūs sanākat kopā, tad tā nenotiek, kā pieklājās baudīt Tā Kunga mielastu.
When you meet together, as I understand, it is not possible to eat the Lord’s Supper;
21 Jo pie mielasta ikviens steidzās paņemt savu paša ēdienu un cits paliek neēdis un cits ir pilns.
for, as you eat, each of you tries to secure his own supper first, with the result that one has too little to eat, and another has too much to drink!
22 Jo vai tad jums nav māju, kur varat ēst un dzert? Jeb vai jūs Dieva draudzi nicinājiet un tos apkaunojiet, kam nav nekā? Ko lai jums saku? Vai lai jūs teicu? Šinī lietā es jūs neteicu.
Have you no houses in which you can eat and drink? Or are you trying to show your contempt for the church of God, and to humiliate the poor? What can I say to you? Should I praise you? In this matter I cannot praise you.
23 Jo no Tā Kunga es to esmu dabūjis, ko atkal jums esmu mācījis, ka Tas Kungs Jēzus tanī naktī, kad Tas kļuva nodots, to maizi ņēma,
For I myself received from the Lord the account which I have in turn given to you – how the Lord Jesus, on the very night of his betrayal, took some bread,
24 Un pateicies pārlauza un sacīja: ņemiet, ēdiet, tā ir Mana miesa, kas par jums top lauzta; to dariet Mani pieminēdami.
and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke it and said ‘This is my own body given on your behalf. Do this in memory of me.’
25 Tāpat arī to biķeri, pēc tā vakarēdiena, sacīdams: Šis biķeris ir tā jaunā derība iekš Manām asinīm. To dariet, cikkārt jūs to dzeriet, Mani pieminēdami.
And in the same way with the cup, after supper, saying ‘This cup is the new covenant made by my blood. Do this, whenever you drink it, in memory of me.’
26 Jo cikkārt jūs no šīs maizes ēdat un no šī biķera dzerat, tad pasludinājiet Tā Kunga nāvi, tiekams Tas nāk.
For whenever you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death – until he comes.
27 Tad nu, kas necienīgi ēd šo maizi, vai dzer Tā Kunga biķeri, tas būs noziedzīgs pie Tā Kunga miesas un asinīm.
Therefore, whoever eats the bread, or drinks the Lord’s cup, in an irreverent spirit, will have to answer for an offence against the Lord’s body and blood.
28 Bet lai cilvēks pats izmeklējās, un tā lai viņš ēd no šīs maizes un dzer no šī biķera.
Let everyone look into their own heart, and only then eat of the bread and drink from the cup.
29 Jo kas necienīgi ēd un dzer, tas ēd un dzer sev pašam sodu, neizšķirdams Tā Kunga miesu.
For the person who eats and drinks brings a judgment on themselves by their eating and drinking, when they do not discern the body.
30 Tādēļ jūsu starpā daudz ir vāji un neveseli, un daudz ir aizmiguši (garīgi, iekš draudzes).
That is why so many among you are weak and ill, and why some are sleeping.
31 Jo ja mēs paši sevi tiesātu, tad netaptu tiesāti.
But, if we judged ourselves rightly, we should not be judged.
32 Bet kad mēs topam tiesāti, tad no Tā Kunga topam pārmācīti, lai ar pasauli netopam pazudināti.
Yet, in being judged by the Lord, we are undergoing discipline, so that we may not have judgment passed on us with the rest of the world.
33 Tad nu, mani brāļi, kad jūs sanākat pie mielasta, tad gaidiet cits uz citu.
Therefore, my friends, when you meet together to eat the Supper, wait for one another.
34 Bet ja kas ir izsalcis, tas lai ēd mājās, lai jūs nesanākat par sodu. To citu es mācīšu, kad es nākšu.
If anyone is hungry, they should eat at home, so that your meetings may not bring a judgment on you. The other details I will settle when I come.
