1 Korinčanima 8
1 U pogledu mesa žrtvovana idolima, znamo, svi posjedujemo znanje. Ali znanje nadima, a ljubav izgrađuje.
And as touching things sacrificed vnto idols, wee knowe that wee all haue knowledge: knowledge puffeth vp, but loue edifieth.
2 Ako tko misli da što zna, još ne zna kako treba znati.
Nowe, if any man thinke that hee knoweth any thing, hee knoweth nothing yet as hee ought to knowe.
3 A ljubi li tko Boga, Bog ga poznaje.
But if any man loue God, the same is knowen of him.
4 Dakle, u pogledu blagovanja mesa žrtvovana idolima, znamo: nema idola na svijetu i nema Boga do Jednoga.
Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed vnto idoles, we knowe that an idole is nothing in the worlde, and that there is none other God but one.
5 Jer sve kad bi i bilo nazovibogova ili na nebu ili na zemlji - kao što ima mnogo “bogova” i mnogo “gospodara”! -
For though there bee that are called gods, whether in heauen, or in earth (as there be many gods, and many lords)
6 nama je jedan Bog, Otac, od koga je sve, a mi za njega; i jedan Gospodin, Isus Krist, po kome je sve, i mi po njemu.
Yet vnto vs there is but one God, which is that Father, of whome are all things, and we in him: and one Lord Iesus Christ, by whome are all things, and we by him.
7 Ali nemaju svi toga znanja. Neki, navikli na idole, još jedu meso kao idolima žrtvovano i njihova se savjest kalja jer je nejaka.
But euery man hath not that knowledge: for many hauing conscience of the idole, vntill this houre, eate as a thing sacrificed vnto the idole, and so their conscience being weake, is defiled.
8 A k Bogu nas ne privodi jelo. Niti što gubimo ako ne jedemo; niti što dobivamo ako jedemo.
But meate maketh not vs acceptable to God, for neither if we eate, haue we the more: neither if we eate not, haue we the lesse.
9 A pazite da ne bi možda ta vaša sloboda bila spoticaj nejakima.
But take heede lest by any meanes this power of yours be an occasion of falling, to them that are weake.
10 Jer vidi li tko tebe koji imaš znanje za stolom u hramu idolskomu, neće li se njegova savjest, jer je nejaka, “izgraditi” da jede žrtvovano idolima?
For if any man see thee which hast knowledge, sit at table in the idoles temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weake, be boldened to eate those things which are sacrificed to idoles?
11 I s tvoga znanja propada nejaki, brat za kojega je Krist umro.
And through thy knowledge shall the weake brother perish, for whome Christ died.
12 Tako griješeći protiv braće i ranjavajući njihovu nejaku savjest, protiv Krista griješite.
Nowe when ye sinne so against the brethren, and wound their weake conscience, ye sinne against Christ.
