1 Corinthians 11
1 [Follow my example], just like I [try to] follow Christ’s example.
Бивайте подражатели на мене, както съм и аз на Христа.
2 I praise you because you remember all the things [that I taught you] and because you follow the instructions that I gave you. You have done just like I told you to do.
А похвалявам ви, че ме помните за всичко, като държите преданията тъй, както ви ги предадох.
3 [Now], I want you to know that the one who has authority over [MTY] every man is Christ, and the ones who have authority over women are men (OR, their husbands), and the one who has authority over Christ is God.
Но желая да знаете, че глава на всеки мъж е Христос, а глава на жената е мъжът, глава пък на Христа е Бог.
4 [So] if any man [wears a covering over] his head when he prays or speaks a message God gave him, he disgraces himself [SYN].
Всеки мъж, който се моли или пророкува с покрита глава, засрамва главата си.
5 Also, if any woman does not wear a covering over her head when she prays or speaks a message that God gave her, she disgraces herself (OR, she dishonors her husband). That would be acting like [SIM] [women who are ashamed because] their heads have been shaved.
А всяка жена, която се моли или пророкува гологлава, засрамва главата си, защото това е едно и също, като да е с бръсната глава.
6 So, if women do not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], they should let someone shave their heads [so that they will be ashamed]. But since women are ashamed if someone cuts their hair [short] or shaves off their hair, they should wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them].
Защото, която жена се не покрива, нека остриже и косата си. Но ако е срамотно за жена да си стриже косата, или да си бръсне главата, то нека се покрива.
7 Men should not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], because they represent what God is like [MET] and they show how great God is. But women show how great men (OR, their husbands) are.
Защото мъжът не трябва да си покрива си покрива главата, понеже е образ и слава на Бога; а жената е слава на мъжа.
8 [Remember that God intends that men have authority over women. We know that] because [God] did not make [the first] man, [Adam], from the [first] woman, [Eve]. Instead, he made that woman [from a bone that he took] from the man.
(Защото мъжът не е от жената, а жената е от мъжа;
9 Also, [God] did not create [the first] man [to help] the woman. Instead, [he] created the woman [to help] the man.
понеже, мъжът не бе създаден за жената, а жената за мъжа).
10 For that reason, women should wear something [to cover] their heads [as a symbol of their being under their husbands’] [MTY] authority. They should also [cover their heads] so that the angels [will see that and rejoice].
Затова жената е длъжна да има на главата си белег на власт, заради ангелите.
11 However, remember that [even though God created the first] woman from [the first] man, all other men [have been born] from women. So men cannot be independent of women, nor can women be independent of men. But all things, [including men and women], come from God.
(Обаче, нито жената е без мъжа, нита мъжът без жената, в Господа;
защото, както жената е от мъжа, така и мъжът е чрез жената; а всичко е от Бога).
13 Consider this for yourselves: Is it proper for [RHQ] women to pray to God while they do not have coverings over their heads?
Сами в себе си съдете: Прилично ли е, жената да се моли Богу гологлава?
14 (Everyone senses that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair./Doesn’t everyone sense that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair?) [RHQ]
Не учи ли и самото естество, че, ако мъж оставя косата си да расте, това е позор за него,
15 But it is very delightful if women have long hair, because [God] gave them long hair to be like a [beautiful] covering [for their heads].
но, ако жена оставя косата си да расте, това е слава за нея, защото косата й е дадена за покривало?
16 But whoever wants to argue [with me about my saying that women should have a covering over their heads when they pray or speak a message from God should consider the fact that] we [apostles] do not [permit] any other custom, and the [other] congregations of God do not have any other custom.
Но, ако някой мисли да се препира за това,
17 Now I want to tell you [about some other things]. I do not praise you about them, because whenever you believers meet together, good [things do not happen]. Instead, bad things [happen].
А като ви заръчвам следното, не ви похвалявам, защото се събирате, не за по-добро, но за по-лошо.
18 First of all, people have told me that when you gather together as a group [to worship God], you divide into groups [that are hostile to each other]. To some extent I believe that is true.
Защото, първо, слушам, че когато се събирате в църква, ставали разделения помежду ви; (и отчасти вярвам това;
19 It seems that you must divide into [groups that despise each other] in order that it might be clear/evident which people among you [God] approves of!
защото е нужно да има и разцепление между вас, за да се яви, кои са удобрените помежду ви);
20 When you gather together, you [IRO] eat the meal [that you say is to remember the death of] the Lord [Jesus for us].
прочее, когато така се събирате заедно, не е възможно да ядете Господната вечеря;
21 But [what happens when] you eat is that each person eats his own meal before [he thinks about sharing his food with anyone else]. As a result, [when the meal is over], some people are [still] hungry and others are drunk! [So it is not a meal that honors the Lord].
защото на яденето всеки бърза да вземе своята вечеря преди другиго; и така един остава гладен, а друг се напива.
22 ([You act as though] you do not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]!/Do you not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]?) [RHQ] Do you not realize [RHQ] [that by acting selfishly in this way], it is God’s people whom you are despising, and it is the poor people [in your group] whom you are treating as though they were not important? What shall I say to you about that [RHQ]? Do [you expect] me to praise you [about what you do] [RHQ]? I certainly will not praise you!
Що! къщи ли нямате, гдето да ядете и пиете? Или презирате Божията църква и посрамяте тия, които нямат нищо? Що да ви кажа? Да ви похваля ли за това? Не ви похвалявам.
23 The Lord taught me these things that I also taught you: During the night that Jesus was betrayed {[Judas] enabled [the enemies of] the Lord Jesus to seize him}, he took some bread.
Защото аз от Господа приех това, което ви и предадох, че Господ Исус през нощта, когато беше предаден, взе хляб,
24 After he thanked God for it, he broke it into pieces. [Then he gave it to his disciples] and said, “This bread [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my body, that [I am about to sacrifice] for you. Eat bread in this [way again and again] to remember my [offering myself as a sacrifice for you].”
и, като благодари, разчупи и рече: Това е Моето Тяло, което е [разчупено] за вас; туй правете за Мое възпоменание.
25 Similarly, after they ate their meal, he took a cup [MTY] [of wine]. He [thanked God for it. Then he gave it to his disciples], saying, “[The wine in] [MTY] this cup [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my blood [that will flow from my body] ([to put into effect/to establish]) the new agreement [that God is making with people]. Whenever you drink wine in this way, do it to remember that [my blood flowed for you].”
Така взе и чашата след вечерята и рече: Тая чаша е новият завет в Моята кръв; това правете всеки път, когато пиете, за Мое възпоменание.
26 [Remember that] until the Lord [Jesus] returns [to the earth], whenever you eat the [bread that represents his body] and drink the wine [MTY] [that represents his blood], you are telling other people that he died [for you].
Защото всеки път, когато ядете тоя хляб и пиете [тая] чаша, възвестявате смъртта на Господа, докле дойде Той.
27 So, those who eat that bread and drink that wine [MTY] in a way that is not proper [for those who belong to the Lord] are guilty of [acting in a way that is contrary to what] our [Lord intended when he offered] his body [as a sacrifice] and his blood [flowed when he died].
Затова, който яде хляба или пие Господната чаша недостойно, ще бъде виновен за грях против тялото и кръвта на Господа.
28 Before any believer eats that bread and drinks that wine [MTY], he should think carefully about [what he is doing],
Но да изпитва човек себе си, и така да от хляба и да пие от чашата;
29 because if anyone eats [the bread that represents Christ’s body] and drinks [the wine that represents his blood] without recognizing that all God’s [people should be united, God will] punish him [for doing that].
защото, който яде и пие без да разпознава Господното тяло, той яде и пие осъждане на себе си.
30 Many people in your group are weak and sick, and several have died [EUP] because of [the way they acted when they ate that bread and drank that wine].
По тая причина мнозина между вас са слаби и болнави, а доста и са починали.
31 If we would think carefully about what we [are doing], [God] would not judge [and punish] us [like that].
Но, ако разпознавахме сами себе си, не щяхме да бъдем съдени заедно със света.
32 But when the Lord judges [and punishes] us [for acting wrongly], he disciplines us [to correct us], in order that he will not [need to] punish us when he punishes [the people who do not trust in Christ] [MTY].
А когато биваме съдени от Господа, с това се наказваме, за да не бъдем осъдени заедно със света.
33 So, my fellow believers, when you gather together to eat [food to remember the Lord’s dying for you], wait until everyone [has arrived so that you can find out who does not have enough food].
Затова, братя мои, когато се събирате да ядете, чакайте се един друг.
34 Those who are so hungry [that they cannot wait to eat until everyone else has arrived] should eat in their own homes [first], in order that when you gather together God will not judge [and punish them for] ([being inconsiderate of/not being concerned about]) [others]. And when I come [to Corinth] I will give you instructions about other matters [concerning the Lord’s Supper].
Ако някой е гладен, нека яде у дома си, за да не бъде събирането ви за осъждане. А за останалите работи, ще ги наредя, когато дойда.
