Pāvila 1. Vēstule Korintiešiem 7
1 Bet par to, ko jūs man esat rakstījuši, saku: cilvēkam ir labi, sievas neaizskart;
But concerning those things about which you wrote to me: That it is good for a man not to receive a wife:
2 Bet lai maucība nenotiek, tad lai ikkatram ir sava sieva, un lai ikkatrai ir savs vīrs,
but on account of fornication, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.
3 Vīrs sievai lai parāda pienākamu mīlestību; tā arīdzan sieva vīram.
Let the husband give to the wife that which is due, and likewise the wife also to the husband.
4 Sievai nav vaļas par savu miesu, bet vīram; tā arī vīram nav vaļas par savu miesu, bet sievai.
The wife has not the authority over her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband has not the authority over his own body, but the wife.
5 Neatraujaties viens otram, kā tikai vienā prātā uz kādu laiku, lai jums vaļa ir Dievu lūgt; un nāciet atkal kopā, lai sātans jūs nekārdina, kad nevarat valdīties.
Do not defraud one another, unless it may be with consent for a time, that you may give attention to prayer, and again come together, in order that Satan may not tempt you on account of your incontinency.
6 To saku, atvēlēdams un ne pavēlēdams.
But I speak this according to knowledge, not according to commandment.
7 Jo es gribētu, ka visi cilvēki tādi būtu, kā es; bet ikkatram ir sava dāvana no Dieva, vienam šāda, otram tāda.
But I wish that all men were even as myself; but each one has his own gift from God, some one, and some another.
8 Bet es saku nelaulātiem un atraitnēm: labi tiem, ja tie paliek itin kā es.
But I speak to the unmarried and the widows, that it is good for them that they may remain even as I:
9 Bet ja tie nevar valdīties, tad lai iedodas laulībā: jo labāki ir iedoties laulībā, nekā degt kārībā.
but if they do not contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
10 Bet laulātiem pavēlu ne es, bet Tas Kungs, lai sieva neatšķiras no vīra.
But I proclaim to those who have married, not I, but the Lord, That a wife shall not depart from her husband
11 Un ja tā arī būtu atšķīrusies, tad tai būs palikt bez laulības, vai salīgt ar vīru; un lai vīrs neatstumj sievu.
(but if indeed she may depart, let her remain unmarried, or let her be reconciled unto her husband); and that the husband shall not send away the wife.
12 Bet tiem citiem saku es, ne Tas Kungs: ja kādam brālim ir neticīga sieva un tai ir pa prātam, dzīvot ar viņu, lai viņš to neatstumj.
But I say to the rest, not the Lord, if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and she is willing to live with him, let him not send her away.
13 Un ja sievai ir neticīgs vīrs, un tam ir pa prātam, dzīvot ar viņu, tā lai viņu neatstumj.
And if any wife has an unbelieving husband, and he is willing to live with her, let her not send away her husband.
14 Jo neticīgais vīrs ir svētīts caur sievu, un neticīgā sieva ir svētīta caur vīru, jo citādi jūsu bērni būtu nešķīsti, bet tagad tie ir svēti.
For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified by the brother. Since then your children are unclean; but now they are holy.
15 Bet ja tas neticīgais atšķiras, tad lai tas atšķiras; tas brālis vai tā māsa šinīs lietās nav saistīti. Dievs mūs ir aicinājis uz mieru.
But if the unbeliever departs, let him or her depart; the brother or the sister has not been enslaved in such things. God has called you in peace.
16 Jo ko tu, sieva, zini, vai tu vīru izglābsi? Jeb ko tu, vīrs, zini, vai tu sievu izglābsi?
For what do you know, O wife, if you shall save your husband? And what do you know, O husband, if you shall save your wife?
17 Tomēr kā kuram Dievs ir piešķīris, kā kuru Tas Kungs ir aicinājis, tā lai tas staigā, un tāpat es pavēlu visās draudzēs.
If not as the Lord has imparted to each one, and as God has called each one, so let him or her walk. And thus I command in all the churches.
18 Jo kas ir aicināts apgraizīts, tas lai neuzvelk priekšādu; ja kas ir aicināts iekš priekšādas, tas lai netop apgraizīts.
Is one called having been circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised: has one been called in uncircumcision? let him not get circumcised.
19 Apgraizīšana nav nekas, un priekšāda nav nekas, bet Dieva baušļu turēšana.
Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
20 Kā kurš ir aicināts, tā lai viņš paliek.
Let each one abide in the same calling in which he is called.
21 Ja tu kalps būdams esi aicināts, nebēdā par to; bet ja tu vari tapt svabads, tad to jo labāki pieņem.
Have you been called being a slave? let it not be a care to you: but if indeed you are able to become free, use it in preference.
22 Ja kas iekš Tā Kunga ir aicināts, kalps būdams, tas ir Tā Kunga svabadnieks; tāpat arīdzan, kas svabadnieks būdams, ir aicināts, tas ir Kristus kalps.
For the one having been called in the Lord, being a slave, is the Lord's freeman: likewise the one having been called, while free, is the slave of Christ.
23 Jūs esat dārgi atpirkti; netopiet cilvēku kalpi.
You have been bought with a price; be not the slaves of men.
24 Ikkatram, brāļi, kā tas ir aicināts, tā tam būs palikt pie Dieva.
Let each one remain with the Lord, in the same calling in which he was called, brethren.
25 Bet par tām meitām man nav Tā Kunga pavēles; bet padomu dodu, kā no Tā Kunga žēlastību dabūjis, ka esmu uzticīgs.
But concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: but I give knowledge, as one having obtained mercy from the Lord to be faithful.
26 Tad nu man šķiet, tā esam labi tagadēja bēdu laika dēļ, ka cilvēkam labi, tāpat palikt.
But I consider this to be good on account of the present distress, that it is good for a man so to be.
27 Ja esi saderēts ar sievu, tad nemeklē atlaišanu; ja esi vaļā no sievas, tad nemeklē sievu.
Have you been given to a wife? do not seek separation; have you been separated from a wife? do not seek a wife.
28 Bet ja arī būsi laulībā iedevies, tad neesi grēkojis, un ja meita būs laulībā iedevusies, tad tā nav grēkojusi; bet tādiem pie miesas būs bēdas, bet es jūs gribētu saudzēt.
But if, indeed you may marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin may marry, she has not sinned; but such shall have trouble in the flesh, but I spare you.
29 Bet to es saku, brāļi, tas laiks ir īss; tāpēc nu tie, kam sievas, lai ir, tā kā kad tiem nebūtu;
But I say this, brethren; that the time is at hand, that moreover indeed those having wives may be as those not having;
30 Un tie, kas raud, lai ir kā kas neraud; un kas priecājās, kā kas nepriecājās, un kas pērk, kā kas to nepatur:
and those weeping, as those not weeping; and those rejoicing, as those not rejoicing; and those buying, as those not possessing;
31 Un kas šo pasauli lieto, kā kas to nelieto; jo šīs pasaules būšana paiet.
and those using the world, as those not using it thoroughly: for the fashion of this world is passing away.
32 Bet es gribu, ka jūs esat bez zūdīšanās. Kas nelaulāts, tas rūpējās par Tā Kunga lietām, kā tas Tam Kungam var patikt;
I wish you to be free from solicitude. The unmarried man cares for the things of the Lord, in order that he may please the Lord:
33 Bet kas laulāts, tas rūpējās par pasaules lietām, kā tas sievai var patikt.
but the one having married cares for the things of the world, in order that he may please his wife.
34 Tāda pat starpība ir starp sievu un meitu: tā nelaulātā rūpējās par Tā Kunga lietām, ka tā svēta būtu miesā un garā; bet tā laulātā rūpējās par pasaules lietām, kā tā vīram var patikt.
A wife and a virgin truly also differ: the unmarried woman cares for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy in body and in spirit: but she having married cares for the things of the world, that she may please her husband.
35 Un to es saku jums pašiem par labu: ne, ka gribētu jums apmest valgu, bet ka jūs godīgi dzīvojiet un pie Tā Kunga turaties bez mitēšanās.
I speak this for the profit of you yourselves; not that I may cast a burden upon you, but for that which is pleasing and acceptable to the Lord without perturbation.
36 Bet ja kam šķiet, ka viņa meitai, kas pāri par gadiem, tas nepieklājoties, un ja tam tā vajag notikt, tad lai dara, ko gribēdams; viņš negrēko: lai tā laulībā iedodas.
But if any one considers that he is acting indiscreetly towards his virgin, if she may be marriageable, and thus it ought so to be, let him do what he wishes; he does not sin; let them marry.
37 Bet kas ir pastāvīgs savā sirdī, un kam vajadzības nav, bet ir vaļa, pēc sava paša prāta darīt, un to savā sirdī ir apņēmies, savu meitu paturēt nelaulātu, - tas dara labi.
But whosoever stands firm in his heart, having no necessity, and has the right according to his own will, and has determined this in his heart, to keep his virgin, will do well.
38 Tad nu, kas laulībā izdod, tas dara labi, un kas laulībā neizdod, tas dara labāki.
So indeed he that marries his own virgin does well; and he that marries her not will do better.
39 Sieva caur bauslību ir sieta, kamēr viņas vīrs dzīvs; bet kad viņas vīrs ir miris, tad tai ir vaļa precēt kuru grib, tikai iekš Tā Kunga.
A wife has been given so long a time as her husband may live; but if her husband may die, she is free to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
40 Bet viņa ir jo svētīga, ja viņa tāpat paliek, pēc mana padoma; bet man šķiet, ka man arīdzan ir Dieva Gars.
But she is happier if she may so remain, according to my opinion: but I realize that I truly have the Spirit of God.
