Romans 2
1 [God will severely punish non-Jewish people who habitually do evil things, because he has clearly revealed that he is angry with them]. So, [when God judges people], he will not excuse any one of you Jews [to whom I am writing]. You [(sg)] say that [God should] punish [non-Jews for doing evil things]. But when any one of you says that, it is you yourself whom you are saying that God should punish, because you [(sg)] do [some of] the same [evil] things [that the non-Jews do].
Зато се не можеш изговорити, о човече који год судиш! Јер којим судом судиш другом, себе осуђујеш; јер то чиниш судећи.
2 We know very well that God will judge and punish fairly [non-Jewish] people who do such [evil] things.
А знамо да је суд Божји прав на оне који то чине.
3 So, you who [say God should punish] others for doing evil things yet you do evil things yourself, (you should certainly not think that you yourself will be able to escape from being punished by God!/do you think that you yourself will be able to escape from being punished by God?) [RHQ]
Него помишљаш ли, о човече који судиш онима који то чине, и сам чиниш то! Да ћеш ти побећи од суда Божијег?
4 And you should not say, “God is acting very tolerantly and patiently toward me, [so I do not need to stop sinning] [DOU].” (You should realize that God is acting in a kind manner [toward you] in order to encourage you [(sg)] to turn away from your sinful behavior!/Do you not realize that God is acting in a kind manner [toward you] in order to encourage you [(sg)] to turn away from your sinful behavior?) [RHQ]
Или не мариш за богатство Његове доброте и кротости и трпљења, не знајући да те доброта Божија на покајање води?
5 But instead, by your stubbornly refusing to turn away from your sinful behavior [DOU], you are causing [MET] God to punish you even more severely. [He will do that] at the time when he shows that he is angry and judges people fairly.
Него својом дрвености и непокајаним срцем сабираш себи гнев за дан гнева у који ће се показати праведни суд Бога,
6 God will pay back everyone according to [what they deserve for] what they have done.
Који ће дати свакоме по делима његовим:
7 [Specifically], some people, by continuing to doing good things, strive to be highly honored [by God] [DOU] and to receive a life that will not end. [God will reward them by enabling them] to live forever. (aiōnios g166)
Онима, дакле, који су трпљењем дела доброг тражили славу и част и нераспадљивост, живот вечни; (aiōnios g166)
8 But some people act in a selfish way and refuse to believe that [what God says is] true, and they do the things that [God says] are wrong. [God will] punish them very severely [DOU, MTY].
А онима који се уз пркос супроте истини, а покоравају се неправди, немилост и гнев.
9 He will cause everyone who habitually does evil deeds to suffer greatly, [with the result that they will become severely] distressed [DOU]. This certainly will happen to the Jews [who refuse to accept God’s message, because God gave them the privilege to be his special people], but it will also happen to the non-Jews.
Невоља и туга на сваку душу човека који чини зло, а најпре Јеврејина и Грка;
10 But [God will] greatly reward spiritually [MET, DOU] every person who habitually does good deeds. He will [certainly] do this for the Jews [because God chose them as his special people], but he will also do it for the non-Jews.
А слава и част и мир свакоме који чини добро, а најпре Јеврејину и Грку;
11 God [will do this fairly], because people’s status does not influence him.
Јер Бог не гледа ко је ко.
12 Although [non-Jews do not have] the laws that [God gave to Moses], all [non-Jews] who sin will be eternally separated from God. He will [not consider whether or not they knew] the laws that he [gave to Moses]. And all the [Jews] who have sinned in spite of knowing the laws that [God gave to Moses will also be punished] {[God will also punish them]}. [They will be punished for disobeying] God’s laws.
Јер који без закона сагрешише, без закона ће и изгинути; и који у закону сагрешише, по закону ће се осудити
13 [It is right for them to be punished] {[God to punish them]} [because] it is not those who [merely] know God’s laws whom he considers to be righteous. On the contrary, it is only those who continually have obeyed [all] (of [God’s] laws/of the laws that [God gave to Moses]) (whom God will consider righteous/whose record of sins God will erase).
(Јер пред Богом нису праведни они који слушају закон, него ће се они оправдати који га творе;
14 Whenever the non-Jews, who do not have the laws [God gave to Moses], naturally obey those laws, [they prove that] they have a law within their own minds, even though they do not have the laws [God gave to Moses].
Јер кад незнабошци не имајући закон сами од себе чине шта је по закону, они закон не имајући сами су себи закон:
15 They show that they know in their own minds what God [commands in his] laws [MET], as each person in his very own conscience either accuses or excuses/defends himself [concerning his own behavior].
Они доказују да је оно написано у срцима њиховим што се чини по закону, будући да им савест сведочи, и мисли међу собом туже се или правдају)
16 God [will punish people] at the time when he will judge them according to what they have thought and done. He will judge them [even] for the things that they have done secretly. He will judge people by [authorizing] Christ Jesus [to judge them]. This is [what I tell people when] I preach the gospel to them.
На дан када Бог узасуди тајне људске по јеванђељу мом преко Исуса Христа.
17 [Now I have something to say to any one of] you [Jews to whom I am writing]: You [(sg)] boast about yourself saying, “I am a Jew.” You [(sg)] trust [that God will save you because you possess] the laws [that he gave to Moses]. You boast that [you belong to] God.
Гле, ти се зовеш Јеврејин, а ослањаш се на закон и хвалиш се Богом,
18 You know what God desires. Because you have been taught {[people] have taught you} [God’s] laws, you are able to know which things are right and to choose to do them.
И познајеш вољу, и избираш шта је боље, јер си научен од закона;
19 You are certain that you [are able to] show [God’s truth to non-Jews], as guides [show the road] to those who are blind [MET]. You are certain that by what you say you can show God’s way to the [non-Jews who do not understand it], as a light shows the way to [those who walk in] the darkness [MET, DOU].
И мислиш да си вођ слепима, видело онима који су у мраку,
20 [You are certain that you] can instruct/correct [non-Jews, whom you consider] foolish [because of their not understanding God’s message]. Because you have in [God’s] laws a [written] expression of true knowledge [HEN], you are certain that you can teach [people who, being like] children, do not know [God’s truth] [MET].
Наказатељ безумнима, учитељ деци, који имаш углед разума и истине у закону.
21 [Since you claim that you have all these advantages because you are a Jew], (it is disgusting that you who teach other people [that they should obey the laws God gave Moses] do not [obey the laws that you] yourself teach!/why is it that you who teach other people [that they should obey the laws God gave Moses] do not [obey the laws that you] yourself teach?) [RHQ] You who preach that people should not steal things, it is disgusting that you yourself steal things! [RHQ]
Учећи, дакле, другог себе не учиш;
22 You who command people not to have sexual relations with someone to whom they are not married, it is disgusting that you commit adultery yourself! [RHQ] You who detest idols, it is disgusting that you rob temples [where people worship idols]! [RHQ]
Проповедајући да се не краде, крадеш; говорећи: Не чини прељубе, чиниш прељубу: гадећи се на идоле, крадеш светињу;
23 You who boast saying, “[I have God’s] laws,” it is disgusting that you disobey those same laws! [RHQ] As a result you are insulting God!
Који се хвалиш законом, а преступом закона срамотиш Бога.
24 [You must not be like our ancestors, about whom] were written [these words in the Scriptures: ] “The non-Jews speak evil about God because of [the evil actions of] many of you [Jews].” The non-Jews say God must be a hypocrite if he condones the behavior of people like you.
Јер се име Божије због вас хули у незнабошцима, као што стоји написано.
25 Any one of you who [is] circumcised [to show that he belongs to God] can benefit from that if he obeys the laws [God gave to Moses]. But if you [(sg), a circumcised person], disobey [God’s] laws, [God will consider that] you who are circumcised are no better [in God’s sight] than [someone who is] not circumcised.
Обрезање помаже ако закон држиш; ако ли си преступник закона, обрезање је твоје необрезање постало.
26 This means that God will certainly consider that even [non-Jews who are] not circumcised can become his people if they obey the things that he commanded in his laws. [RHQ]
Ако, дакле, необрезање правду закона држи, зашто се не би његово необрезање за обрезање узело?
27 [If any one of] you disobeys God’s laws, even though [you(sg) have] the Scriptures and even though someone has circumcised you {you are circumcised} [God will punish you]. And those people who are not circumcised, but who obey God’s laws, [will declare that God is right] when he says that he will punish you.
И онај који је од рода необрезан и извршује закон, осудиће тебе који си са словима и обрезањем преступник закона.
28 It is not those who perform rituals [to show they are God’s people] who are [true] Jews, and it is not being circumcised in their bodies [that causes God to accept them] [MTY].
Јер оно није Јеврејин који је споља Јеврејин, нити је оно обрезање које је споља, на телу;
29 On the contrary, we whom [God has changed] inwardly are [true] Jews [MTY]. And [God has accepted us because we have allowed God’s] Spirit to change our hearts, not because we perform rituals. Even if [other] people will not praise us [for that change], God will praise us.
Него је оно Јеврејин који је изнутра и обрезање срца духом а не словима, то је обрезање; коме је хвала не од људи него од Бога.
