1 Corinthians 10
1 I want you to bear in mind, friends, that all our ancestors were beneath the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
Poleg tega bratje nočem, da vi ne bi premislili, da so bili vsi naši očetje pod oblakom in so vsi šli skozi morje
2 that in the cloud and in the sea they all underwent baptism as followers of Moses;
in vsi so bili krščeni v Mojzesa, v oblaku in v morju,
3 and that they all ate the same supernatural food,
in vsi so jedli isto duhovno jed,
4 and all drank the same supernatural water, for they used to drink from a supernatural rock which followed them, and that rock was the Christ.
in vsi so pili isto duhovno pijačo. Kajti pili so iz te duhovne Skale, ki jih je spremljala. In ta Skala je bil Kristus.
5 Yet with most of them God was displeased; for they were struck down in the desert.
Toda z mnogimi izmed njih Bog ni bil zelo zadovoljen; zato so bili zrušeni v divjini.
6 Now these things happened as warnings to us, to teach us not to long for evil things as our ancestors longed.
Torej te stvari so bile naši zgledi, z namenom, da mi ne bi hlepeli po zlih stvareh, prav tako kakor so oni poželeli.
7 Do not become idolaters, as some of them became. Scripture says – “The people sat down to eat and drink, and stood up to dance.”
Niti ne bodite malikovalci, kakor so bili nekateri izmed njih; kakor je pisano: ›Ljudje so se usedli, da bi jedli in pili in vstali, da bi se zabavali.‹
8 Nor let us act immorally, as some of them acted, with the result that twenty-three thousand of them fell dead in a single day.
Niti ne zagrešimo prešuštvovanja, kakor so storili nekateri izmed njih in [jih] je v enem dnevu padlo triindvajset tisoč.
9 Nor let us try the patience of the Lord too far, as some of them tried it, with the result that they were, one after another, destroyed by snakes.
Niti ne skušajmo Kristusa, kakor so skušali tudi nekateri izmed njih in so bili pokončani od kač.
10 And do not murmur, as some of them murmured, and so were destroyed by the angel of death.
Niti ne godrnjajte, kakor so tudi nekateri izmed njih godrnjali in so bili pokončani od uničevalca.
11 These things happened to them by way of warning, and were recorded to serve as a caution to us, in whose days the close of the ages has come. (aiōn g165)
Torej vse te stvari so se jim zgodile za zglede. Napisane pa so v svarilo nam, nad katere so prišli konci sveta. (aiōn g165)
12 Therefore let the person who thinks that they stand take care that they do not fall.
Zato naj tisti, ki misli, da stoji, pazi, da ne pade.
13 No temptation has come upon you that is not common to all humanity. God will not fail you, and he will not allow you to be tempted beyond your strength; but, when he sends the temptation, he will also provide the way of escape, so that you may have strength to endure.
Nobene preizkušnje niste prestali razen takšne, ki je človeku običajna. Toda Bog je zvest, ki ne bo dovolil, da bi bili skušani nad tem, kar ste zmožni; toda s preizkušnjo bo prav tako pripravil pot za pobeg, da jo boste lahko prestali.
14 Therefore, my dear friends, shun the worship of idols.
Moji srčno ljubljeni, bežite torej od malikovanja.
15 I speak to you as man of discernment; form your own judgment about what I am saying.
Govorim kot modrim možem; presodite, kaj govorim.
16 In the cup of blessing which we bless, is not there a sharing in the blood of the Christ? And in the bread which we break, is not there a sharing in the body of the Christ?
Mar ni čaša blagoslova, ki jo blagoslavljamo, udeležba pri Kristusovi krvi? Mar ni kruh, ki ga lomimo, udeležba pri Kristusovem telesu?
17 The bread is one, and we, though many, are one body; for we all partake of that one bread.
Kajti mi, ki nas je mnogo, smo en kruh in eno telo; ker smo vsi udeleženci tega enega kruha.
18 Look at the people of Israel. Do not those who eat the sacrifices share with the altar?
Glejte Izrael po mesu. Mar niso tisti, ki jedo od žrtev, udeleženci oltarja?
19 What do I mean? That an offering made to an idol, or the idol itself, is anything?
Kaj torej pravim? Da je malik kaj, ali je to, kar je darovano v žrtvovanje malikom kaj?
20 No; what I say is that the sacrifices offered by the Gentiles are offered to demons and to a being who is no God, and I do not want you to share with demons.
Temveč pravim, da stvari, ki jih pogani žrtvujejo, žrtvujejo hudičem, ne pa Bogu; in ne želim, da bi vi imeli družbo s hudiči.
21 You cannot drink both the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake at the table of the Lord and at the table of demons.
Ne morete piti Gospodove čaše in čaše hudičev. Ne morete biti udeleženci Gospodove mize in mize hudičev.
22 Or are we to rouse the jealousy of the Lord? Are we stronger than he?
Ali Gospoda dražimo do ljubosumnosti? Ali smo močnejši od njega?
23 Everything is allowable! Yes, but everything is not profitable. Everything is allowable! Yes, but everything does not build up character.
Dovoljene so mi vse stvari, toda vse stvari niso koristne. Dovoljene so mi vse stvari, toda vse stvari ne izgrajujejo.
24 A person must not study their own interests, but the interests of others.
Naj noben človek ne išče svojega lastnega, temveč vsak srečo drugega.
25 Eat anything that is sold in the market, without making inquiries to satisfy your scruples;
Karkoli se prodaja v mesnicah, to jejte, ne postavljajoč nobenih vprašanj glede vesti;
26 for the earth, with all that is in it, belongs to the Lord.
kajti Gospodova je zemlja in njena polnost.
27 If an unbeliever invites you to his house and you consent to go, eat anything that is put before you, without making inquiries to satisfy your scruples.
Če vas kdorkoli od teh, ki ne veruje, povabi na pojedino in ste pripravljeni, da greste; jejte karkoli je postavljeno pred vas in ne sprašujte se nobenih vprašanj glede vesti.
28 But, if anyone should say to you “This has been offered in sacrifice to an idol,” then, for the sake of the speaker and his scruples, do not eat it.
Toda če vam katerikoli človek reče: »To je darovano v žrtev malikom, « ne jejte zaradi tistega, ki je to pokazal in zaradi vesti; kajti zemlja je Gospodova in njena polnost.
29 I do not say your scruples, but his. For why should the freedom that I claim be condemned by the scruples of another?
Vesti pravim, ne tvoje lastne, temveč od drugega; kajti zakaj je moja svoboda sojena od vesti drugega človeka?
30 If, for my part, I take the food thankfully, why should I be abused for eating that for which I give thanks?
Kajti če sem udeleženec po milosti, zakaj sem obrekovan zaradi tega, za kar se zahvaljujem?
31 Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do everything to the honour of God.
Če torej jeste ali pijete ali delate karkoli, vse to delajte v Božjo slavo.
32 Do not cause offence either to Jews or Greeks or to the church of God;
Ne dajajte nobenega povoda, niti Judom, niti poganom, niti Božji cerkvi;
33 for I, also, try to please everybody in everything, not seeking my own advantage, but do what is best for others, so that they may be saved.
tako kakor jaz v vseh stvareh ugajam vsem ljudem in ne iščem svoje lastne koristi, temveč korist mnogih, da bodo oni lahko rešeni.
