Romans 8
1 Hence there is now, no, condemnation unto them who are in Christ Jesus;
Nikakva dakle sad nema osuðenja onima koji su u Hristu Isusu i ne hode po tijelu nego po Duhu.
2 For, the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus, hath set thee free from the law of sin and of death; —
Jer zakon duha koji oživljava u Hristu Isusu, oprostio me je od zakona grjehovnoga i smrti.
3 For, what was impossible by the law in that it was weak through the flesh, God, by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and concerning sin, condemned sin in the flesh,
Jer što zakonu bješe nemoguæe, jer bješe oslabljen tijelom, posla Bog sina svojega u oblièju tijela grjehovnoga, i za grijeh osudi grijeh u tijelu,
4 In order that, the righteous requirement of the law, might be fulfilled in us—who, not according to flesh, do walk, but according to spirit;
Da se pravda zakona ispuni u nama koji ne živimo po tijelu nego po duhu;
5 For, they who according to flesh have their being, the things of the flesh do prefer, but, they according to the spirit, the things of the spirit;
Jer koji su po tijelu tjelesno misle, a koji su po duhu duhovno misle.
6 For, what is preferred by the flesh, [is] death, whereas, what is preferred by the spirit, [is] life and peace; —
Jer tjelesno mudrovanje smrt je, a duhovno mudrovanje život je i mir.
7 Inasmuch as, what is preferred by the flesh, [is] hostile towards God, for, unto the law of God, it doth not submit itself, neither in fact can it.—
Jer tjelesno mudrovanje neprijateljstvo je Bogu, jer se ne pokorava zakonu Božijemu niti može.
8 They, moreover, who in flesh have their being, cannot please, God.
A koji su u tijelu ne mogu Bogu ugoditi.
9 But, ye, have not your being in flesh, but in spirit, —if at least, God’s Spirit, dwelleth in you; and, if anyone hath not Christ’s Spirit, the same, is not his; —
A vi nijeste u tijelu nego u duhu; jer Duh Božij u vama živi. A ako ko nema Duha Hristova, on nije njegov.
10 But, if Christ is in you, the body, indeed, is dead by reason of sin, whereas, the spirit, is life by reason of righteousness;
A ako je Hristos u vama, onda je tijelo mrtvo grijeha radi a Duh živ pravde radi.
11 If, moreover, the Spirit of him that raised Jesus from among the dead dwelleth in you, he that raised from among the dead Christ Jesus, shall make alive [even] your death-doomed bodies, through means of his indwelling Spirit within you.
A ako li živi u vama Duh onoga koji je vaskrsao Isusa iz mrtvijeh, onaj koji je podigao Hrista iz mrtvijeh oživljeæe i vaša smrtna tjelesa Duhom svojijem koji živi u vama.
12 Hence, then, brethren—debtors, we are, not unto the flesh, that, according to flesh, we should live, —
Tako dakle, braæo, nijesmo dužni tijelu da po tijelu živimo.
13 For, if according to flesh ye live, ye are about to die, whereas, if in spirit, the practices of the flesh, ye are putting to death, ye shall attain unto life;
Jer ako živite po tijelu, pomrijeæete; ako li duhom poslove tjelesne morite, življeæete.
14 For, as many as by God’s Spirit are being led, the same, are God’s sons, —
Jer koji se vladaju po duhu Božijemu oni su sinovi Božiji.
15 For ye have not received a spirit of servitude, leading back into fear, but ye have received a spirit of sonship, whereby we are exclaiming—Abba! Oh Father!
Jer ne primiste duha ropstva, opet da se bojite; nego primiste Duha posinaèkoga, kojijem vièemo: Ava, oèe!
16 The Spirit itself, beareth witness together with our spirit that we are children of God;
Ovaj Duh svjedoèi našemu duhu da smo djeca Božija.
17 And, if children, heirs also—heirs, indeed, of God, but co-heirs with Christ, —if, at least, we are suffering together, in order that we may also be glorified together.
A kad smo djeca i našljednici smo: našljednici dakle Božiji, a sunašljednici Hristovi: jer s njim stradamo da se s njim i proslavimo.
18 For I reckon that unworthy are the sufferings of the present season to be compared with the glory about to be revealed towards us;
Jer mislim da stradanja sadašnjega vremena nijesu ništa prema slavi koja æe nam se javiti.
19 For, the eager outlook of creation, ardently awaiteth the revealing of the sons of God, —
Jer èekanje tvari èeka da se jave sinovi Božiji.
20 For, unto vanity, hath creation been made subject—not by choice, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope
Jer se tvar pokori propadljivosti ne od svoje volje nego za volju onoga koji je pokori) na nad,
21 That, creation itself also, shall be freed—from the bondage of the decay into the freedom of the glory of the sons of God;
Da æe se i sama tvar oprostiti od ropstva raspadljivosti na slobodu slave djece Božije.
22 For we know that, all creation, is sighing together, and travailing-in-birth-throes together until the present, —
Jer znamo da sva tvar uzdiše i tuži s nama dosad.
23 And, not only so, but, we ourselves, also, who have the first-fruit of the Spirit—[we] even ourselves, within our own selves do sigh, —sonship ardently awaiting—the redeeming of our body; —
A ne samo ona, nego i mi koji novinu duha imamo, i mi sami u sebi uzdišemo èekajuæi posinjenja i izbavljenja tijelu svojemu.
24 For, by our hope, have we been saved, —but, hope beheld, is not hope, for, what one beholdeth, why doth he hope for?
Jer se nadom spasosmo. A nad koji se vidi nije nad; jer kad ko vidi što, kako æe mu se nadati?
25 If, however, what we do not behold we hope for, with endurance, are we ardently awaiting [it]; —
Ako li se nadamo onome što ne vidimo, èekamo s trpljenjem.
26 In the selfsame way moreover, even the Spirit, helpeth together in our weakness, —for, what we should pray for as we ought, we know not, but, the Spirit itself, maketh intercession with sighings unutterable,
A tako i Duh pomaže nam u našijem slabostima: jer ne znamo za što æemo se moliti kao što treba, nego sam Duh moli se za nas uzdisanjem neiskazanijem.
27 And, he that searcheth the hearts, knoweth what is preferred by the Spirit—that, according to God, he maketh intercession in behalf of saints;
A onaj što ispituje srca zna što je misao Duha, jer po volji Božijoj moli se za svete.
28 We know, further, that, unto them who love God, God causeth all things to work together for good, —unto them who, according to purpose, are such as he hath called;
A znamo da onima koji ljube Boga sve ide na dobro, koji su pozvani po namjerenju.
29 For, whom he fore-approved, he also fore-appointed to be conformed unto the image of his Son, that he might be firstborn among many brethren, —
Jer koje naprijed pozna one i odredi da budu jednaki oblièju sina njegova, da bi on bio prvoroðeni meðu mnogom braæom.
30 And, whom he fore-appointed, the same, he also called, and, whom he called, the same, he also declared righteous, and, whom he declared righteous, the same, he also made glorious: —
A koje odredi one i dozva; a koje dozva one i opravda; a koje opravda one i proslavi.
31 What, then, shall we say to a these things? If God [is] for us, who [shall be] against us?
Šta æemo dakle reæi na ovo? Ako je Bog s nama, ko æe na nas?
32 He, at least, who his own Son did not spare, but in behalf of us all delivered him up, how shall he not also, with him, all things upon us in favour bestow?
Koji dakle svoga sina ne poštedje, nego ga predade za sve nas, kako dakle da nam s njim sve ne daruje?
33 Who shall bring an accusation against the chosen ones of God? God, who declareth righteous?
Ko æe optužiti izbrane Božije? Bog koji pravda?
34 Who is he that condemneth? Christ [Jesus] who died?—Nay! rather was raised [from among the dead], —who is on the right hand of God, who also is making intercession in our behalf?
Ko æe osuditi? Hristos Isus, koji umrije, pa još i vaskrse, koji je s desne strane Bogu, i moli za nas?
35 Who shall separate us from the love of the Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?—
Ko æe nas rastaviti od ljubavi Božije? Nevolja li ili tuga? ili gonjenje? ili glad? ili golotinja? ili strah? ili maè? kao što stoji napisano:
36 According as it is written—For thy sake, are we being put to death all the day long, we have been reckoned as sheep for slaughter.—
Za tebe nas ubijaju vas dan, drže nas kao ovce koje su za klanje.
37 Nay, in all these things, we are more than conquering through him that hath loved us.
Ali u svemu ovome pobjeðujemo onoga radi koji nas je ljubio.
38 For I am persuaded that—neither death nor life, nor messengers nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,
Jer znam jamaèno da ni smrt, ni život, ni anðeli, ni poglavarstva, ni sile, ni sadašnje, ni buduæe,
39 Nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ni visina, ni dubina, ni druga kakva tvar može nas razdvojiti od ljubavi Božije, koja je u Hristu Isusu Gospodu našemu.
