1 Corinthians 14
1 Pursue love; nevertheless be envious of the spiritual gifts, —and, rather, that ye may be prophesying.
Držite se ljubavi, a starajte se za duhovne dare, a osobito da prorokujete.
2 For, he that speaketh with a tongue, not unto men, doth speak, but, unto God, —for, no one, understandeth, although, in spirit, he is speaking sacred secrets;
Jer koji govori jezike, ne govori ljudima nego Bogu: jer niko ne sluša, a on duhom govori tajne.
3 But, be that prophesieth, unto men, doth speak—edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
A koji prorokuje govori ljudima za popravljanje i utjehu i utvrðenje.
4 He that speaketh with a tongue, buildeth up, himself, whereas, he that prophesieth, buildeth up, an assembly.
Jer koji govori jezike sebe popravlja, a koji prorokuje crkvu popravlja.
5 Howbeit I wish you all to speak with tongues, but, rather, that ye may prophesy, —moreover, greater, is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues, —unless indeed he translate, that, the assembly, may receive upbuilding.
Ali ja bih htio da vi svi govorite jezike, a još više da prorokujete: jer je veæi onaj koji prorokuje negoli koji govori jezike, veæ ako ko kazuje, da se crkva popravlja.
6 But, now, brethren—if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit, you, except I speak, unto you, either by way of revelation, or knowledge, or prophesying, or teaching?
A sad, braæo, ako doðem k vama jezike govoreæi, kaku æu korist uèiniti ako vam ne govorim ili u otkrivenju, ili u razumu, ili u proroštvu, ili u nauci?
7 In like manner, the things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, if, a distinction in the sounds, they do not give, how shall it be known, what is being piped or harped?
Kao neke stvari bezdušne koje daju glas, bila svirala ili gusle, ako razlièna glasa ne daju, kako æe se razumjeti šta se svira ili gudi?
8 For, if also, an uncertain sound, a trumpet, should give, who shall prepare himself for battle?
Jer ako truba da nerazgovijetan glas, ko æe se pripraviti na boj?
9 So, also, ye, through means of the tongue, except ye give intelligible discourse, how shall it be known what is being spoken? for ye will be speaking, to the air.
Tako i vi ako nerazumljivu rijeè reèete jezikom, kako æe se razumjeti šta govorite? Jer æete govoriti u vjetar.
10 There may happen to be so many kinds of languages in the world, and, not one, unspoken: —
Ima na svijetu Bog zna koliko razliènijeh glasova, ali nijedan nije bez znaèenja.
11 If, then, I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be, unto him that is speaking, a foreigner, and, he that is speaking, shall be, in my case, a foreigner.
Ako dakle ne znam sile glasa, biæu nijemac onome kome govorim, i onaj koji govori biæe meni nijemac.
12 So, ye, also—since ye are, envious, of spirits, unto the upbuilding of the assembly, seek to be pre-eminent.
Tako i vi, buduæi da se starate za duhovne darove, gledajte da budete onima bogati koji su na popravljanje crkve.
13 Wherefore, he that speaketh with a tongue, let him pray that he may translate;
Zato koji govori jezikom neka se moli Bogu da kazuje.
14 [For], if I am praying in a tongue, my spirit, is praying, but, my mind, is unfruitful.
Jer ako se jezikom molim Bogu, moj se duh moli, a um je moj bez ploda.
15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, but I will pray also with the mind, —I will strike the strings with the spirit, [but] I will strike the strings also with the mind.
Šta æe se dakle èiniti? Moliæu se Bogu duhom, a moliæu se i umom; hvaliæu Boga duhom, a hvaliæu i umom.
16 Else, if thou be blessing in a spirit, he that filleth up the place of the ungifted person, how shall he say the Amen upon thy thanksgiving? since indeed, what thou art saying, he knoweth not;
Jer kad blagosloviš duhom kako æe onaj koji stoji mjesto prostaka reæi amin po tvome blagoslovu, kad ne zna šta govoriš?
17 For, thou, indeed, excellently art giving thanks, but, the other, is not being built up.
Ti dobro zahvaljuješ, ali se drugi ne popravlja.
18 I give thanks unto God!—More than ye all, am I speaking with tongues;
Hvala Bogu mojemu što govorim jezike veæma od sviju vas.
19 But, in assembly, I desire to speak five words with my mind, that, others also, I may instruct, than myriads of words in a tongue.
Ali u crkvi volim pet rijeèi umom svojijem reæi, da se i drugi pomognu, negoli hiljadu rijeèi jezikom.
20 Brethren! do not become children, in your understandings; but, in baseness, become babes, while, in your understandings, ye become, full-grown.
Braæo! ne budite djeca umom, nego pakošæu djetinjite, a umom budite savršeni.
21 In the law, it is written—With strange tongues, and with lips of strangers, will I speak unto this people; and, not even so, will they hearken unto me, —saith the Lord.
U zakonu piše: drugijem jezicima i drugijem usnama govoriæu narodu ovome, i ni tako me neæe poslušati, govori Gospod.
22 So that, the tongues, are for a sign—not unto them that believe, but, unto them that believe not; whereas, prophesying, is not for them that believe not, but, for them that believe.
Zato su jezici za znak ne onima koji vjeruju, nego koji ne vjeruju; a proroštvo ne onima koji ne vjeruju, nego koji vjeruju.
23 If, then, the whole assembly come together with one consent, and, all, are speaking with tongues, —and there come in persons unskilled or unbelieving, will they not say that ye are raving?
Ako se dakle skupi crkva sva na jedno mjesto, i svi uzgovorite jezicima, a doðu i prostaci, ili nevjernici, neæe li reæi da ste poludjeli?
24 But, if, all, be prophesying, —and there come in one who is unbelieving or unskilled, he is convicted by all, he is searched by all, the secrets of his heart, become manifest,
A ako svi prorokuju, i doðe kakav nevjernik ili prostak, bude pokaran od sviju i suðen od sviju.
25 And, so, falling down upon his face, he will do homage unto God, reporting that, in reality, God is, among you.
I tako tajne srca njegova bivaju javljene, i tako padnuvši nièice pokloniæe se Bogu, i kazaæe da je zaista Bog s vama.
26 What, then, is it, brethren? Whensoever ye are coming together, each one, hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath a translation: —let, all things, be done, unto building up.
Šta æe se dakle èiniti, braæo? Kad se sabirate svaki od vas ima psalam, ima nauku, ima jezik, ima otkrivenje, ima kazivanje; a sve da biva na popravljanje.
27 If, with a tongue, one is speaking, let it be by two, or, at the most, three, —and by turns; and let, one, be translating;
Ako govori ko jezikom, ili po dvojica, ili najviše po trojica, i to poredom; a jedan da kazuje.
28 But, if there be none to translate, let him keep silence in assembly, and, unto himself, be speaking, and, unto God!
Ako li ne bude nikoga da kazuje, neka æuti u crkvi, a sebi neka govori i Bogu.
29 Prophets, moreover, let two or three speak, and let, the others, judge.
A proroci dva ili tri neka govore, i drugi neka rasuðuju.
30 If, however, unto another, a revelation be made, as he is sitting, let the first be silent;
Ako li se otkrije što drugome koji sjedi, neka èeka dok prvi uæuti.
31 For, one by one, ye can, all, be prophesying, —that, all, may learn, and, all, be encouraged.
Jer možete prorokovati svi, jedan po jedan, da se svi uèe, i svi da se tješe.
32 And, spirits of prophets, unto prophets, do submit themselves;
I duhovi proroèki pokoravaju se prorocima;
33 For God is not [a God] of confusion, but, of peace: —as in all the assemblies of the saints.
Jer Bog nije Bog bune, nego mira, kao po svima crkvama svetijeh.
34 As for the women, in the assemblies, let them be silent, for it is not permitted them to be speaking; but let them be in submission, —even as, the law, saith.
Žene vaše da æute u crkvama; jer se njima ne dopusti da govore, nego da slušaju, kao što i zakon govori.
35 If, however, they are wishing to learn something, at home, their own husbands, let them question; for it is a shame for a woman to be speaking in assembly.
Ako li hoæe èemu da se nauèe, kod kuæe muževe svoje neka pitaju; jer je ružno ženi da govori u crkvi.
36 Or, from you, did the word of God come forth? Or, unto you alone, did it extend?
Eda li od vas rijeè Božija iziðe? ili samijem vama doðe?
37 If anyone thinketh himself to be a prophet, or spiritually gifted, let him acknowledge the things which I am writing to you, —that they are, a commandment, of the Lord.
Ako ko misli da je prorok ili duhovan, neka razumije što vam pišem, jer su Gospodnje zapovijesti.
38 But, if anyone knoweth not, he is unknown!
Ako li ko ne razumije, neka ne razumije.
39 So, then, my brethren, —be zealous to prophesy, and do not forbid, to be speaking with tongues;
Zato, braæo moja, starajte se da prorokujete, i ne zabranjujte govoriti jezicima.
40 But let, all things, with comeliness, and by arrangement, be done.
A sve neka biva pošteno i uredno.
