1 Corinthians 1
1 To the church of God in Corinth, to those who have been consecrated by union with Christ Jesus and called to become his people, and also to all, wherever they may be, who invoke the name of our Lord Jesus Christ – their Master and ours,
Pavel, poklican, da je po Božji volji apostol Jezusa Kristusa in naš brat Sostén,
2 from Paul, who has been called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and from Sosthenes, our fellow follower of the Lord.
Božji cerkvi, ki je v Korintu, tem, ki so posvečeni v Kristusu Jezusu, poklicani, da so sveti, z vsemi, ki na vsakem kraju, tako njihovem kakor našem, kličejo ime Jezusa Kristusa, našega Gospoda:
3 May God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.
›Milost bodi vam in mir od Boga, našega Očeta in od Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.‹
4 I always thank God for you. I thank him for the blessing bestowed on you in Christ Jesus.
Vedno se vam v prid zahvaljujem svojemu Bogu za Božjo milost, ki vam je dana po Jezusu Kristusu,
5 For through union with him you were enriched in every way – in your power to preach, and in your knowledge of the truth;
da ste v vsaki stvari obogateni po njem, v vsej izgovarjavi in v vsem spoznanju;
6 and so became yourselves a confirmation of my testimony to the Christ.
celó kakor je bilo Kristusovo pričevanje potrjeno v vas,
7 There is no gift in which you are deficient, while waiting for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed.
tako da vam, ki pričakujete prihod našega Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa, ne primanjkuje nobenega daru;
8 And God himself will strengthen you to the end, so that at the day of our Lord Jesus Christ you may be found blameless.
ki vas bo tudi do konca potrdil, da boste lahko brez krivde na dan našega Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.
9 God will not fail you, and it is he who called you into communion with his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Bog je zvest, po katerem ste bili poklicani v družbo njegovega Sina Jezusa Kristusa, našega Gospoda.
10 But I appeal to you, my friends, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to agree in what you profess, and not to allow divisions to exist among you, but to be united – of one mind and of one opinion.
Torej vas rotim, bratje, v imenu našega Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa, da vsi govorite isto stvar in da med vami ne bo nobenih nesoglasij; temveč da boste popolnoma združeni skupaj, v istem mišljenju in v isti sodbi.
11 For I have been informed, my friends, by the members of Chloe’s household, that party feeling exists among you.
Kajti razodeto mi je bilo o vas, moji bratje, po teh, ki so iz Hloine hiše, da so med vami prepiri.
12 I mean this: that every one of you says either ‘I follow Paul,’ or ‘I Apollos,’ or ‘I Cephas,’ or ‘I Christ.’
Pravim torej to, da vsak izmed vas govori: »Jaz sem Pavlov, jaz Apolov, jaz Kefov, jaz pa Kristusov.«
13 You have torn the Christ in pieces! Was it Paul who was crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
Ali je Kristus razdeljen? Ali je bil Pavel križan za vas? Ali ste bili krščeni v Pavlovo ime?
14 I am thankful that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius,
Zahvaljujem se Bogu, da nisem krstil nobenega izmed vas razen Krispa in Gaja,
15 so that no one can say that you were baptized in my name.
da ne bi kdorkoli lahko rekel, da sem krščeval v svojem lastnem imenu.
16 I baptized also the household of Stephanas. I do not know that I baptized anyone else.
In krstil sem tudi Stefanájevo družino; razen tega ne vem, če sem krstil kogarkoli drugega.
17 My mission from Christ was not to baptize, but to tell the good news; not, however, in the language of philosophy, in case the cross of the Christ should be robbed of its meaning.
Kajti Kristus me ni poslal krščevat, temveč oznanjat evangelij; ne z modrostjo besed, da ne bi bil Kristusov križ storjen brez učinka.
18 The message of the cross is indeed mere folly to those who are on the path to ruin, but to us who are on the path of salvation it is the power of God.
Kajti oznanjevanje križa je tem, ki propadajo, nespametnost; toda nam, ki smo rešeni, je Božja moč.
19 For scripture says – ‘I will bring the philosophy of the philosophers to naught, and the shrewdness of the shrewd I will bring to nothing.’
Kajti pisano je: ›Uničil bom modrost modrih in zavrgel bom razum razsodnih.‹
20 Where is the philosopher? Where the teacher of the Law? Where the disputant of today? Has not God shown the world’s philosophy to be folly? (aiōn g165)
Kje je modri? Kje je pisar? Kje je razpravljavec tega sveta? Mar ni modrosti tega sveta Bog naredil za nespametnost? (aiōn g165)
21 For since the world, in God’s wisdom, did not by its philosophy learn to know God, God saw fit, by the ‘folly’ of our proclamation, to save those who believe in Christ!
Kajti potem, ko v Božji modrosti svet po modrosti ni spoznal Boga, je Bogu ugajalo, da po nespametnosti oznanjevanja reši te, ki verujejo.
22 While Jews ask for miraculous signs, and Greeks study philosophy,
Kajti Judje zahtevajo znamenje in Grki iščejo modrost,
23 we are proclaiming Christ crucified! – to the Jews an obstacle, to the Gentiles mere folly,
toda mi oznanjamo križanega Kristusa, Judom kamen spotike in Grkom nespametnost;
24 but to those who have received the call, whether Jews or Greeks, Christ, the power of God and the wisdom of God!
toda tem, ki so poklicani, tako Judom kakor Grkom, [je] Kristus Božja moč in Božja modrost.
25 For God’s ‘folly’ is wiser than people, and God’s ‘weakness’ is stronger than people.
Kajti Božja nespametnost je modrejša od ljudi in Božja slabost močnejša od ljudi.
26 Look at the facts of your call, friends. There are not many among you who are wise, as people reckon wisdom, not many who are influential, not many who are high-born;
Kajti vidite svoj klic, bratje, da ni poklicanih veliko modrih po mesu, ne veliko mogočnih, ne veliko plemenitih;
27 but God chose what the world counts foolish to put its wise to shame, and God chose what the world counts weak to put its strong to shame,
toda Bog je izbral nespametne stvari sveta, da zbega modre; in Bog je izbral slabotne stvari sveta, da zbega stvari, ki so mogočne;
28 and God chose what the world counts poor and insignificant – things that to it are unreal – to bring its ‘realities’ to nothing,
in nizke stvari sveta in stvari, ki so prezirane, je Bog izbral, da, in stvari, ki niso, da zavrže stvari, ki so,
29 so that in his presence no one should boast.
da se v njegovi prisotnosti ne bi poveličevalo nobeno meso.
30 But you, by your union with Christ Jesus, belong to God; and Christ, by God’s will, became not only our wisdom, but also our righteousness, holiness, and deliverance,
Toda vi ste iz njega v Kristusu Jezusu, ki je za nas postal modrost od Boga in pravičnost in posvečenje in odkupitev;
31 so that – in the words of scripture – ‘Whoever boasts should boast of the Lord!’
da, kakor je pisano: ›Kdor se ponaša, naj se ponaša v Gospodu.‹
