1 Korinčanima 6
1 Tko bi se od vas u sporu s drugim usudio parničiti se pred nepravednima, a ne pred svetima?
If one of you has a grievance against an opponent, does he dare to go to law before irreligious men and not before God's people?
2 Ili zar ne znate da će sveti suditi svijet? Pa ako ćete vi suditi svijet, zar niste vrijedni suditi sitnice?
Do you not know that God's people will sit in judgement upon the world? And if you are the court before which the world is to be judged, are you unfit to deal with these petty matters?
3 Ne znate li da ćemo suditi anđele, kamo li ne ono svagdanje?
Do you not know that we are to sit in judgement upon angels--to say nothing of things belonging to this life?
4 A vi, kad imate sporove o svagdanjem, sucima postavljate one do kojih Crkva ništa ne drži!
If therefore you have things belonging to this life which need to be decided, is it men who are absolutely nothing in the Church--is it they whom you make your judges?
5 Vama na sramotu govorim. Tako? Zar nema među vama ni jednoga mudra koji bi mogao rasuditi među braćom?
I say this to put you to shame. Has it come to this, that there does not exist among you a single wise man competent to decide between a man and his brother,
6 Nego brat se s bratom parniči, i to pred nevjernicima?
but brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers?
7 Zapravo, već vam je to nedostatak što se parničite među sobom. Zašto radije ne trpite nepravdu? Zašto se radije ne pustite oplijeniti?
To say no more, then, it is altogether a defect in you that you have law-suits with one another. Why not rather endure injustice? Why not rather submit to being defrauded?
8 Nego vi činite nepravdu i plijenite, i to braću.
On the contrary you yourselves inflict injustice and fraud, and upon brethren too.
9 Ili zar ne znate da nepravednici neće baštiniti kraljevstva Božjega? Ne varajte se! Ni bludnici, ni idolopoklonici, ni preljubnici, ni mekoputnici, ni muškoložnici,
Do you not know that unrighteous men will not inherit God's Kingdom? Cherish no delusion here. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor any who are guilty of unnatural crime,
10 ni kradljivci, ni lakomci, ni pijanice, ni psovači, ni razbojnici neće baštiniti kraljevstva Božjega.
nor theives, nor avaricious people, nor any who are addicted to hard drinking, to abusive language or to greed of gain, will inherit God's Kingdom.
11 To evo, bijahu neki od vas, ali oprali ste se, ali posvetili ste se, ali opravdali ste se u imenu Gospodina našega Isusa Krista i u Duhu Boga našega.
And all this describes what some of you were. But now you have had every stain washed off: now you have been set apart as holy: now you have been pronounced free from guilt; in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and through the Spirit of our God.
12 “Sve mi je dopušteno!” Ali - sve ne koristi. “Sve mi je dopušteno!” Ali - neću da mnome išta vlada.
Everything is allowable to me, but not everything is profitable. Everything is allowable to me, but to nothing will I become a slave.
13 “Jela trbuhu, a trbuh jelima; Bog će i jedno i drugo uništiti.” Ali ne tijelo bludnosti, nego Gospodinu, i Gospodin tijelu!
Food of all kinds is meant for the stomach, and the stomach is meant for food, and God will cause both of them to perish. Yet the body does not exist for the purpose of fornication, but for the Master's service, and the Master exists for the body;
14 Ta Bog koji je Gospodina uskrisio i nas će uskrisiti snagom njegovom.
and as God by His power raised the Master to life, so He will also raise us up.
15 Ne znate li da su tijela vaša udovi Kristovi? Hoću li dakle uzeti udove Kristove i učiniti ih udovima bludničinim? Nipošto!
Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them the members of a prostitute? No, indeed.
16 Ili zar ne znate: tko uz bludnicu prione, jedno je tijelo? Jer veli se: Bit će njih dvoje jedno tijelo.
Or do you not know that a man who has to do with a prostitute is one with her in body? For God says, "The two shall become one."
17 A tko prione uz Gospodina, jedan je duh.
But he who is in union with the Master is one with Him in spirit.
18 Bježite od bludnosti! Svaki grijeh koji učini čovjek, izvan tijela je, a bludnik griješi protiv svojega tijela.
Flee from fornication. Any other sin that a human being commits lies outside the body; but he who commits fornication sins against his own body.
19 Ili zar ne znate? Tijelo vaše hram je Duha Svetoga koji je u vama, koga imate od Boga, te niste svoji.
Or do you not know that your bodies are a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who is within you--the Spirit whom you have from God?
20 Jer kupljeni ste otkupninom. Proslavite dakle Boga u tijelu svojem!
And you are not your own, for you have been redeemed at infinite cost. Therefore glorify God in your bodies.
