< 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.
Paweł, powołany apostoł Jezusa Chrystusa z woli Boga, i Sostenes, brat;
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.
Do kościoła Bożego w Koryncie, do uświęconych w Chrystusie Jezusie, powołanych świętych, ze wszystkimi, którzy w każdym miejscu wzywają imienia naszego Pana Jezusa Chrystusa, ich i naszego [Pana].
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.
Łaska wam i pokój od Boga, naszego Ojca, i Pana Jezusa Chrystusa.
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.
Zawsze dziękuję mojemu Bogu za was, za łaskę Bożą, która została wam dana w Chrystusie Jezusie.
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.
We wszystko bowiem jesteście wzbogaceni w nim, we wszelkie słowo i wszelkie poznanie;
6 In that way, [he] confirmed to you that what we [(exc)] proclaimed about Christ is true.
Gdyż świadectwo Chrystusa jest utwierdzone w was;
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].
Tak że żadnego daru nie brakuje wam, którzy oczekujecie objawienia naszego Pana Jezusa Chrystusa.
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].
On też utwierdzi was aż do końca, abyście byli nienaganni w dniu naszego Pana Jezusa Chrystusa.
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.
Wierny [jest] Bóg, przez którego zostaliście powołani do społeczności jego Syna, Jezusa Chrystusa, naszego Pana.
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.
Proszę więc was, bracia, przez imię naszego Pana Jezusa Chrystusa, żebyście wszyscy to samo mówili i żeby nie było wśród was rozłamów, ale abyście byli zespoleni jednakowym umysłem i jednakowym zdaniem.
11 My fellow believers, [I urge this] because some members of Chloe’s household have told me that you are quarreling among yourselves.
Doniesiono mi bowiem o was, moi bracia, przez [domowników] Chloe, że są wśród was spory.
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].”
Mówię to dlatego, że każdy z was twierdzi: Ja jestem Pawła, ja Apollosa, ja Kefasa, a ja Chrystusa.
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]
Czy Chrystus jest podzielony? Czy Paweł został za was ukrzyżowany? Czy w imię Pawła zostaliście ochrzczeni?
14 I thank [God] that Crispus and Gaius were the only ones from among you whom I baptized.
Dziękuję Bogu, że oprócz Kryspusa i Gajusa nikogo z was nie ochrzciłem;
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).”
Aby nikt nie powiedział, że chrzciłem w swoje imię.
16 [Now I remember that] I also baptized the household of Stephanas, but I do not remember baptizing anyone else [there].
Ochrzciłem też dom Stefanasa. Poza tym nie wiem, czy ochrzciłem jeszcze kogoś.
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.
Bo Chrystus nie posłał mnie, abym chrzcił, ale abym głosił ewangelię, [i to] nie w mądrości słowa, aby nie zniweczyć krzyża Chrystusa.
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].
Mowa o krzyżu bowiem jest głupstwem dla tych, którzy giną, ale dla nas, którzy jesteśmy zbawieni, jest mocą Boga.
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.
Bo jest napisane: Wytracę mądrość mądrych, a rozum rozumnych obrócę wniwecz.
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)
Gdzie [jest] mądry? Gdzie uczony w Piśmie? Gdzie badacz tego świata? Czyż Bóg nie obrócił w głupstwo mądrości tego świata? (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.
Skoro bowiem w mądrości Bożej świat nie poznał Boga przez mądrość, upodobało się Bogu przez głupstwo głoszenia zbawić tych, którzy wierzą.
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.
Gdyż Żydzi domagają się znaków, a Grecy szukają mądrości.
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.
My zaś głosimy Chrystusa ukrzyżowanego, [który] dla Żydów wprawdzie [jest] zgorszeniem, a dla Greków głupstwem;
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.
Lecz dla tych, którzy są powołani, zarówno dla Żydów, jak i Greków, [głosimy] Chrystusa – moc Bożą i mądrość Bożą.
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.
Głupstwo Boże bowiem jest mądrzejsze niż ludzie, a słabość Boża jest mocniejsza niż ludzie.
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.
Przypatrzcie się bowiem, bracia, waszemu powołaniu, że niewielu [jest] mądrych według ciała, niewielu możnych, niewielu szlachetnie urodzonych.
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.
Ale Bóg wybrał to, co głupie u świata, aby zawstydzić mądrych, wybrał to, co słabe u świata, aby zawstydzić mocnych.
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].
I [to, co] nieszlachetne u świata i wzgardzone, wybrał Bóg, a nawet to, co nie jest, aby to, co jest, obrócić wniwecz;
29 [He did that] in order that no one could boast to God about being wise or important.
Aby nie chlubiło się przed nim żadne ciało.
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].
Lecz wy z niego jesteście w Chrystusie Jezusie, który stał się dla nas mądrością od Boga i sprawiedliwością, i uświęceniem, i odkupieniem;
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].
Aby, jak to jest napisane: Ten, kto się chlubi, [niech się] chlubi w Panu.
