2 Corinthians 2
1 For I have determined, unto myself, this—not, again, in grief, to come unto you.
Ovo pak sudih u sebi da opet ne doðem k vama u žalosti.
2 For, if, I, grieve you, who then is he that is to gladden me, —save he who is being grieved through me;
Jer ako ja èinim žalost vama, ko je koji æe mene veseliti osim onoga koji prima žalost od mene?
3 And I wrote this very thing—lest, if I came, I should have, grief, from those over whom I had need to rejoice, —having confidence in you all, that, my joy, is the joy, of you all.
I pisah vam ovo isto, da kad doðem ne primim žalost na žalost, a za koje bi valjalo da se veselim nadajuæi se na sve vas da je moja radost sviju vas.
4 For, out of much tribulation and anguish of heart, wrote I unto you, through many tears, —not that ye might be grieved, but that, the love, ye might know, which I have very abundantly unto you.
Jer od brige mnoge i tuge srca napisah vam s mnogijem suzama, ne da biste se ožalostili nego da biste poznali ljubav koju imam izobilno k vama.
5 Now, if anyone hath caused grief, not unto me hath he caused grief, but—that I may not bear too heavily—unto you all.
Ako li je ko mene ražalio, ne ražali mene, do nekoliko, da ne otežam svima vama.
6 Sufficient, unto such a one, the punishment itself which [was inflicted] by the many;
Jer je dovoljno takovome kar ovaj od mnogijeh.
7 So that, on the contrary, ye should forgive and encourage, lest, by any means, by his excessive grief, such a one should be swallowed up.
Zato vi nasuprot veæma da opraštate i tješite, da takovi kako ne padne u preveliku žalost.
8 Wherefore, I beseech you, assure him, of love;
Zato vas molim, utvrdite k njemu ljubav.
9 For, to this end, I also wrote, —that I might know the proof of you, whether, in all things, ye are obedient.
Jer vam zato i pisah, da poznam poštenje vaše jeste li u svaèemu poslušni.
10 Now, to whom ye forgive anything, I, also; for, I also, what I have forgiven, if, anything, I have forgiven, for your sake, in the person of Christ, [have I forgiven it].
A kome vi što oprostite onome opraštam i ja; jer ja ako što kome oprostih, oprostih mu vas radi mjesto Isusa Hrista,
11 Lest we should be overreached by Satan, for, of his thoughts, we are not ignorant.
Da nas ne prevari sotona; jer znamo šta on misli.
12 Moreover, although I came unto Troas for the glad-message of the Christ, and a door for me had been opened in the Lord,
A kad doðoh u Troadu da propovijedam jevanðelje Hristovo, i otvoriše mi se vrata u Gospodu,
13 I had no relief in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother; but, taking my leave of them, I came away into Macedonia.
Ne imadoh mira u duhu svojemu, ne našavši Tita, brata svojega; nego oprostivši se s njima iziðoh u Maæedoniju.
14 But, unto God, be thanks, who, ever, leadeth us in triumph in the Christ, and, the fragrance of the knowledge of him, maketh manifest, through us, in every place,
Ali hvala Bogu koji svagda nama daje pobjedu u Hristu Isusu, i kroz nas javlja miris poznanja svojega na svakom mjestu.
15 That, of Christ, a grateful odour, are we, unto God, —in them who are being saved, and in them who are being lost:
Jer smo mi Hristov miris Bogu i meðu onima koji se spasavaju i koji ginu:
16 In these, indeed, a fragrance out of death into death, but, in those, a fragrance out of life into life. And, for these things, who is sufficient?
Jednima dakle miris smrtni za smrt, a drugima miris životni za život. I za ovo ko je vrijedan?
17 For we are not, as the many, driving a petty trade with the word of God; but, as of sincerity, but, as of God, before God, in Christ, we speak.
Jer mi nijesmo kao mnogi koji neèisto propovijedaju rijeè Božiju, nego iz èistote, i kao iz Boga, pred Bogom, u Hristu govorimo.
