< Galatians 2 >

1 After 14 years passed, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas. I took Titus also.
Potom po čtrnácti letech opět vstoupil jsem do Jeruzaléma s Barnabášem, pojav s sebou i Tita.
2 But [I tell you that] I went up there because of what God revealed to me. [It was not because someone there asked me to come]. I told people what was the good message that I was preaching in regions where non-Jews live. But I talked privately to those whom your new teachers highly respect. I did that in order that what I was doing and what I had done [MET] might not become useless [MET] [as a result of people rejecting my message because they thought that I was teaching something that was not true].
Vstoupil jsem pak podlé zjevení, a vypravoval jsem jim evangelium, kteréž káži mezi pohany, a zvláště pak znamenitějším, abych snad nadarmo neběžel nyní i prvé.
3 But [even though the leaders of the believers usually insisted that when non-Jews trusted in Christ someone must circumcise them], they did not even insist that Titus be circumcised, even though he was a Greek man who was with me.
Ale ani Titus, kterýž se mnou byl, pohan byv, nebyl přinucen obřezati se,
4 [I talked to them privately] because some people [successfully] pretended that they were fellow believers and associated with the true believers. They did that in order that they might observe closely what we do because we are free [from having to obey all the Jewish laws and rituals] because of our close relationship with Christ Jesus [MET]. Those people wanted to make us [like] slaves [MET] [of those rituals by convincing us that we cannot trust Christ solely but that we must also obey all the Jewish rituals].
Totiž pro podešlé falešné bratří, kteříž se byli vloudili k vyšpehování svobody naší, kterouž máme v Kristu Ježíši, aby nás v službu podrobili.
5 But not even briefly did we [(exc)] do what they wanted [about circumcision. We(exc) resisted them] in order that the truth of the message about Christ might continue to [benefit] you.
Kterýmž ani na chvilku neustoupili jsme, a nepoddali se, aby pravda evangelium zůstala u vás.
6 The [leaders in Jerusalem], whom your new teachers respect, did not add anything to what I preach. [And I would add that] what status those leaders had did not influence me, because God does not favor certain/important persons [IDM] more than others.
Od těch pak, kteříž se zdadí něco býti, ač jací někdy byli, mně potom nic není, Bůhť osoby člověka nepřijímá, ti, pravím, kteříž se něco zdadí býti, nic mi nepřidali.
7 Instead of those leaders adding to the message that I tell people, they understood that I had been given the good message {God had given the good message to me} so that I might proclaim it to the non-Jews [MTY], just like [God] had given the good message to Peter so that he might tell it to those who are Jews [MTY].
Nýbrž naodpor, když uzřeli, že jest mi svěřeno evangelium, abych je kázal neobřezaným, jako i Petrovi mezi Židy,
8 That is, just like [God] had empowered/authorized Peter in order that he might be an apostle [to bring God’s message] to the Jews [MTY], he also had empowered/authorized me in order that I might be an apostle to [bring his message to] the non-Jews.
(Nebo ten, kterýž mocný byl skrze Petra z strany apoštolství mezi Židy, byl mocný i skrze mne mezi pohany, )
9 And [those leaders] knew that God had kindly given to me this special work. So James, Peter, and John, the ones whom your new teachers [respect because they are] leaders [MET] [of the believers], shook hands with us [IDM] [to show that they agreed that Barnabas and I are serving the Lord just like they are, and that we are preaching the same message that they are preaching]. They also agreed that we [(exc)] are the ones whom God was sending to [tell his message to] non-Jews, but that God is sending them to [tell his message to] Jews [MTY].
A poznavše milost mně danou, Jakub a Petr a Jan, kteříž se zdadí sloupové býti, podali pravic mně a Barnabášovi na tovaryšství, abychom my mezi pohany, a oni mezi Židy kázali.
10 They merely urged that we [(exc)] still remember to help the poor [fellow believers who live in Jerusalem]. That is exactly what I have been eager to do.
Toliko abychom na chudé pamatovali, což jsem se i činiti snažoval.
11 But [later while I was at] Antioch [city], after Peter came there, I told him directly [SYN] that what he was doing was wrong.
A když byl přišel Petr do Antiochie, zjevně jsem jemu odepřel; hoden zajisté byl trestání.
12 [This is what happened]: [Peter went to Antioch and started eating regularly with non-Jewish believers there]. Later there were certain [Jewish believers who] came [to Antioch who claimed that] James, [the leader of the congregations in Jerusalem], had sent them. But when [those certain] men came, Peter gradually quit [eating] with the non-Jewish believers and would not associate with them. He was afraid that the Jewish [believers from Jerusalem would criticize him for associating with non-Jews].
Nebo prvé než přišli někteří od Jakuba, jídal s pohany, a když přišli, ucházel a odděloval se, boje se těch, kteříž byli z Židovstva.
13 Also, the other Jewish [believers who were in Antioch] [SYN] acted (insincerely/in a way that they knew was not right) along with [Peter]. The result was that they convinced even Barnabas to [stop associating with the non-Jewish believers]!
A spolu s ním v tom pokrytství byli i jiní Židé, tak že i Barnabáš uveden byl v to jejich pokrytství.
14 But when I realized that they were not acting according to the truth of the message about Christ, [when] all [the fellow believers there] were present, I told Peter [the following]: “Although you [(sg)] are a Jew, [you often conduct yourself] like non-Jews [do by disregarding Jewish laws about food. When you are among non-Jews], you [(sg)] do not customarily conduct yourself at all like Jews [do]. So, (now it is wrong that you [(sg)] are causing non-Jews [to think that they must obey all] the Jewish rituals and customs!/why are you [(sg)] causing non-Jews [to think that they must obey all] the Jewish rituals and customs?) [RHQ]”
Ale já uzřev, že nesprostně chodí v pravdě evangelium, řekl jsem Petrovi přede všemi: Poněvadž ty jsa Žid, pohansky živ jsi, a ne Židovsky, proč pohany k Židovskému způsobu nutíš?
15 Some of us [believers] were born as Jews. We [(exc)] were not born as non-Jews. [We Jews have always considered non-Jews to be] ‘sinners’ [because they do not obey the Jewish rituals and laws].
My přirození Židé, a ne pohané hříšní,
16 But we [(exc)] now know that it is not because some person obeys the laws [that God gave to Moses] that [God] erases the record of that person’s sins. [God erases the record of a person’s sins only if that person trusts in what Jesus Christ has done]. Even we [(exc)] Jews trusted Christ Jesus. We [(exc)] did that in order that [God] would erase the record of our sins because of our trusting Christ, and not because of our obeying the laws [that God gave to Moses. God has said that] he will [never] erase the record of people’s sins just because of their obeying those laws.
Vědouce, že nebývá člověk ospravedlněn z skutků zákona, ale skrze víru v Jezukrista, i my v Krista uvěřili jsme, abychom ospravedlněni byli z víry Kristovy, a ne z skutků zákona, proto že nebude ospravedlněn z skutků zákona žádný člověk.
17 Furthermore, because we [(exc) Jews] desired that [God] would erase the record of our sins because of our relationship with Christ, [it means that] we realized that we ourselves were sinners [like non-Jews, whom we called] sinners, [because we(exc) also were not obeying the Jewish rituals and laws]. [But] ([we(inc) certainly cannot conclude] that it is Christ who causes us to sin./[should we conclude] that it is Christ who causes us to sin?) [RHQ] [No, Christ] certainly does not [cause anyone to sin].
Jestliže pak hledajíce ospravedlněni býti v Kristu, nalézáme se i my hříšníci, tedy jest Kristus služebník hřícha? Nikoli.
18 So if I should again believe [that God would erase the record of my sins because of my obeying the laws that he gave to Moses] [MET], [I would be like a man who] rebuilds an old building that he tore down. It would [soon] be clear that I am one who disobeys those same laws [that God gave to Moses].
Nebo budu-li to, což jsem zbořil, opět zase vzdělávati, přestupníkem sebe činím.
19 When [I realized that I could not earn God’s favor] by [obeying] the laws [that he gave to Moses, I decided not] to [respond to what those laws demanded] [MET], [just like] a dead person [does not respond to anything]. Now I live to [honor/serve] God.
Já zajisté skrze zákon zákonu umřel jsem, abych živ byl Bohu.
20 [It is as though] I was with Christ when he was crucified {died on the cross} [MET] (OR, [It is as though] my [old way of life ended when] Christ died on the cross.) No longer am I [directing the way I behave as I did before I believed in Christ]. Now Christ [is directing how] I [behave. And whatever I do] now while I live, I do it trusting in God’s Son. He is the one who loved me and offered himself [as a sacrifice] for me.
S Kristem ukřižován jsem. Živť jsem pak již ne já, ale živ jest ve mně Kristus. Že pak nyní živ jsem v těle, u víře Syna Božího živ jsem, kterýž zamiloval mne, a vydal sebe samého za mne.
21 I am not rejecting [as useless] what God [did for me] ([kindly/that I did not deserve]), [as my opponents are doing. I fully accept that God saved me by acting kindly towards me]. If it is because people [obey the] laws [that God gave to Moses] that God erases the record of their sins, then Christ died (for nothing/needlessly).
Nepohrdámť tou milostí Boží. Nebo jestližeť jest z zákona spravedlnost, tedyť Kristus nadarmo umřel.
