1 Corinthians 1
1 I, Paul, [am writing this letter]. Sosthenes, our fellow believer, is with [me as I write it]. [God] appointed me to be an apostle of Christ Jesus because that is what God desired.
Од Павла вољом Божијом позваног апостола Исуса Христа, и од Состена брата,
2 [I am sending this letter] to all you who are God’s believers in Corinth [city]. You have been set apart [by God] {[God] has set you apart} for himself because (of your close relationship with/you belong to) Christ Jesus. God has appointed you to be his people and to live in a morally pure way, just like he has appointed all the people everywhere who belong to him to live in a morally pure way. You and they have trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ [MTY]. He is their sovereign Lord as well as the sovereign Lord of all of us [(inc)] who have trusted in him.
Цркви Божијој која је у Коринту, освећенима у Христу Исусу, позванима светима, са свима који призивају име Господа нашег Исуса Христа на сваком месту и њиховом и нашем:
3 We [(exc)] desire that God, who is our [heavenly] Father, and Jesus Christ, who is our sovereign Lord, will continue to act kindly toward you and cause you to experience [inner] peace.
Благодат вам и мир од Бога Оца нашег и Господа Исуса Христа.
4 I very often [HYP] thank God for you because he has acted toward you kindly, acting in ways that you do not deserve. He has done this because of your (having a close relationship with/being united to) Christ Jesus.
Захваљујем свагда Богу свом за вас што вам је дана благодат Божија у Христу Исусу,
5 That is, [God] has [HYP] helped you spiritually very much because of your (having a close relationship with/being united to) Christ. Specifically, God has very much [HYP] enabled you to speak messages [that his Spirit revealed to you], and he has very much enabled you to know many things [HYP] that his Spirit revealed to you.
Те се у свему обогатисте кроза Њ, у свакој речи и сваком разуму,
6 In that way, [he] confirmed to you that what we [(exc)] proclaimed about Christ is true.
Као што се сведочанство Христово утврди међу вама;
7 As a result, while you wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to return, within your group you truly have [LIT] every ability that [God’s] Spirit gives [to believers].
Тако да немате недостатка ни у једном дару, ви који чекате откривења Господа нашег Исуса Христа,
8 God will also cause you to steadfastly [trust Christ to the very end of your lives] [EUP]. The result will be that God will not consider you guilty [of any sin] when our Lord Jesus Christ returns to earth [MTY].
Који ће вас и утврдити до самог краја да будете прави на дан Господа нашег Исуса Христа.
9 You can depend on God to do that. He is the one who chose you to become intimately associated with his Son, Jesus Christ, who is our Lord.
Веран је Бог који вас позва у заједницу Сина свог Исуса Христа, Господа нашег.
10 My fellow believers, by the authority of [MTY] our Lord Jesus Christ, I urgently appeal to all of you to agree with one another. What I mean is, stop dividing into groups. Instead, be united [MET] concerning what you understand [about spiritual matters], and be united in what you decide.
Молим вас пак, браћо, именом Господа нашег Исуса Христа да сви једно говорите, и да не буду међу вама распре, него да будете утврђени у једном разуму и у једној мисли.
11 My fellow believers, [I urge this] because some members of Chloe’s household have told me that you are quarreling among yourselves.
Јер сам чуо за вас, браћо моја, од Хлојиних домашњих да су свађе међу вама,
12 That is, some of you say, “Paul is the one to whom we [are loyal],” and others say, “Peter is the one to whom we [are loyal],” and still others say, “Christ is the one to whom we [are loyal].”
А то кажем да један од вас говори: Ја сам Павлов; а други: Ја сам Аполов; а трећи: Ја сам Кифин; а четврти: Ја сам Христов.
13 [It is ridiculous that] [RHQ] [you are quarreling and] dividing up [into groups instead of being loyal to] Christ alone. Christ certainly has not divided himself into parts and distributed those parts out [to groups of people who oppose each other]! [MET, RHQ] I, Paul, certainly did not die on the cross for you! [RHQ] When you were baptized {When someone baptized you}, you certainly did not promise that you were submitting to me! [RHQ]
Еда ли се Христос раздели? Еда ли се Павле разапе за вас? Или се у име Павлово крстисте?
14 I thank [God] that Crispus and Gaius were the only ones from among you whom I baptized.
Хвала Богу што ја ниједног од вас не крстих осим Криспа и Гаја;
15 As a result, no one [there in Corinth except those two] can say, “Paul baptized me so that I would become (his disciple/submissive to him).”
Да не рече ко да у своје име крстих.
16 [Now I remember that] I also baptized the household of Stephanas, but I do not remember baptizing anyone else [there].
А крстих и Стефанин дом: даље не знам јесам ли кога другог крстио.
17 Christ sent me not [primarily] to baptize people but to preach the good message about him. When I do that, he does not want me to use words that human philosophers [consider] wise [IRO]. I do not want the message about [what] he [accomplished when he was nailed to] the cross [MTY] to lose its power.
Јер Христос не посла мене да крстим, него да проповедам јеванђеље, не премудрим речима, да не изгуби силу крст Христов.
18 Those who are perishing spiritually [because they do not believe that message consider] that the message [about what Christ accomplished when he was nailed to the] cross [MTY] [is] foolish. But to us who are being saved {whom [God] is saving} [spiritually because we believe that message], it [demonstrates that] God acts powerfully [in order to save us].
Јер је реч крстова лудост онима који гину; а нама је који се спасавамо сила Божија.
19 [It is like what God said that] a prophet wrote long ago, [By the things that I will do], I will show that the ideas of those who [think] [IRO] they are wise are completely useless. I will ignore the ideas that they think are [IRO] so smart.
Јер је писано: Погубићу премудрост премудрих, и разум разумних одбацићу.
20 So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn g165)
Где је премудри? Где је књижевник? Где је препирач овог века? Не претвори ли Бог мудрост овог света у лудост? (aiōn g165)
21 God, acting very wisely, made it impossible for unbelievers to know God by doing what they thought was [IRO] wise. Instead, he was happy to save those who trust [in Christ] as the result of their hearing [the message that] was proclaimed to them, a message that others consider to be foolish.
Јер будући да у премудрости Божијој не позна свет премудрошћу Бога, била је Божија воља да лудошћу поучења спасе оне који верују.
22 The Jews want [people to prove, by performing] miracles, [that their message is true]. The non-Jews want to hear only messages consisting of talk that they consider to be very wise.
Јер и Јевреји знаке ишту, и Грци премудрости траже.
23 As for us, we proclaim [the message about what] Christ [accomplished for us when] he was nailed {[when they] nailed him} to the cross. That message offends Jews [because they do not think that the Messiah will die, and] non-Jews think it is [IRO] a foolish message.
А ми проповедамо Христа разапетог, Јеврејима, дакле, саблазан а Грцима безумље;
24 But to us whom God has chosen to belong to himself, both Jews and non-Jews, that message shows that God acted powerfully and wisely [by sending] Christ [to die] for us.
Онима пак који су позвани, и Јеврејима и Грцима, Христа, Божију силу и Божију премудрост.
25 [Unbelievers may think] [IRO] [that] God was [acting] foolishly [by doing that], but [the truth is that] he was acting more wisely than unbelievers who [just think that] [IRO] they are wise. And unbelievers may think that God was [acting] weakly [by sending his son to die], but he was acting more powerfully than unbelievers who [just think] [IRO] [that they] act powerfully.
Јер је лудост Божија мудрија од људи, и слабост је Божија јача од људи.
26 My fellow believers, remember what [kind of people you] were when God chose you. [Not many of you] whom he chose are people whom [unbelievers considered to be] wise. Very few of you were considered to be important. Very few of you came from families with a high social standing.
Јер погледајте знање своје, браћо, да нема ни много премудрих по телу, ни много силних ни много племенитих;
27 Instead, it was [usually] those whom [unbelievers considered to be] foolish whom God chose. He did that in order to shame/discredit those whom [unbelievers consider] [IRO] wise. It was [usually] those [whom unbelievers] considered [IRO] unimportant whom God chose, in order to shame/discredit those whom unbelievers consider important.
Него што је лудо пред светом оно изабра Бог да посрами премудре; и што је слабо пред светом оно изабра Бог да посрами јако;
28 It was usually those who are despised and considered {whom [unbelievers] despise and consider} worthless whom God chose, in order to make completely ineffective [what unbelievers consider to be important].
И што је неплеменито пред светом и уништено изабра Бог, и што није, да уништи оно што јесте,
29 [He did that] in order that no one could boast to God about being wise or important.
Да се не похвали ниједно тело пред Богом.
30 It is because of what God [has done] that you (have a close relationship with/belong to) Christ Jesus. God [put into effect] his wise [plan to save us] by what Christ did for us. As a result of what Christ did, God erases the record of our sins, sets us apart for himself, and frees us from our being guilty [for our sins].
Из ког сте ви у Христу Исусу, који нам поста премудрост од Бога и правда и освећење и избављење.
31 So, it is the Lord whom we should boast about, [not about one spiritual leader being better than another]. We should do as ([a prophet/Jeremiah]) wrote [in the Scriptures that we should do]: Those who boast should boast [only] about what the Lord [has done].
Да (као што се пише) ко се хвали, Господом да се хвали.
