Galačanima 3
1 O bezumni Galaćani, tko li vas opčara? A pred očima vam je Isus Krist bio ocrtan kao Raspeti.
O thoughtless Galatians! who hath bewitched you, —before whose very eyes, Jesus Christ, was openly set forth as a crucified one?
2 Ovo bih samo htio doznati od vas: jeste li primili Duha po djelima Zakona ili po vjeri u Poruku?
This only, am I wishing to learn from you: —by works of law, received ye, the Spirit? or by a believed report?
3 Tako li ste bezumni? Započeli ste u Duhu pa da sada u tijelu dovršite?
So thoughtless, are ye? Having made a beginning in Spirit, are ye, now, in flesh, to be made complete?
4 Zar ste toliko toga uzalud doživjeli? A kad bi doista bilo uzalud!
Such things, suffered ye, in vain, —if at least [it is] even in vain?
5 Onaj dakle koji vam daje Duha i čini među vama silna djela, čini li to zbog djela Zakona ili zbog vjere u Poruku?
He then who was supplying unto you the Spirit, and energising mighty works among you, by works of law, or by a believed report [did he it]?
6 Tako Abraham povjerova Bogu i uračuna mu se u pravednost.
Even as Abraham—believed in God, and it was reckoned unto him as righteousness.
7 Shvatite dakle: oni od vjere, to su sinovi Abrahamovi.
Be taking note, therefore—that, they who are of faith, the same, are, sons, of Abraham;
8 A Pismo, predvidjevši da Bog po vjeri opravdava pogane, unaprijed navijesti Abrahamu: U tebi će blagoslovljeni biti svi narodi.
And, the scripture, foreseeing, that, by faith, God would declare the nations righteous, fore-announced the good news unto Abraham, saying, All the nations shall be blessed in thee.
9 Tako: oni od vjere blagoslivlju se s vjernikom Abrahamom.
So then, they who are of faith, are blessed with believing Abraham;
10 Doista, koji su god od djela Zakona, pod prokletstvom su. Ta pisano je: Proklet tko se god ne drži i tko ne vrši svega što je napisano u Knjizi Zakona.
For, as many as are of works of law, are, under a curse, —for it is written—Accursed, is everyone that continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law to do them.
11 A da se pred Bogom nitko ne opravdava Zakonom, očito je jer: Pravednik će od vjere živjeti.
Moreover, that, in law, no one, is declared righteous with God, [is] evident, —because, The righteous one, by faith, shall live;
12 Zakon pak nije od vjere, nego veli: Tko ga vrši, u njemu će naći život.
And, the law, is not of faith, but—he that hath done them, shall live in them,
13 Krist nas otkupi od prokletstva Zakona, postavši za nas prokletstvom - jer pisano je: Proklet je tko god visi na drvetu -
Christ, hath redeemed, us, out of the curse of the law, having become, in our behalf, a curse; —because it is written—Cursed, is every one that hangeth upon a tree; —
14 da u Kristu Isusu na pogane dođe blagoslov Abrahamov: da Obećanje, Duha, primimo po vjeri.
In order that, unto the nations, the blessing of Abraham, might come about in Jesus Christ, —in order that, the promise of the Spirit, we might receive through means of the faith.
15 Braćo, po ljudsku govorim: već i ljudski valjan savez nitko ne poništava niti mu što dodaje.
Brethren! in human fashion, am I speaking: yet still, a man’s confirmed covenant, no one setteth aside or addeth unto:
16 A ova su obećanja dana Abrahamu i potomstvu njegovu. Ne veli se: “i potomcima” kao o mnogima, nego kao o jednomu: I potomstvu tvojem, to jest Kristu.
Now, unto Abraham, were spoken the promises—and unto his seed; —He saith not—and unto thy seeds, as of many, but, as of one—and unto thy seed, which is Christ:
17 Ovo hoću kazati: Saveza koji je Bog valjano sklopio ne obeskrepljuje Zakon, koji je nastao četiri stotine i trideset godina poslije, i ne dokida obećanja.
And, this, I say—a covenant previously confirmed by God, the law which, after four hundred and thirty years, hath been brought into being, doth not annul, so as to do away with the promise.
18 Doista, ako se baština zadobiva po Zakonu, ne zadobiva se po obećanju. A Abrahama je Bog po obećanju obdario.
For, if, by law, is the inheritance, it is, no longer, by promise; but, unto Abraham, through promise, hath God favoured it.
19 Čemu onda Zakon? Dometnut je poradi prekršaja dok ne dođe potomstvo komu je namijenjeno obećanje; sastavljen je po anđelima preko posrednika.
Why, then, the law? Because of the transgressions, it was added, until such time as the seed should come, unto whom the promise had been made, and was given in charge through messengers, at the hand of a mediator;
20 Posrednika pak nema gdje je samo jedan. A Bog je jedan.
Now, a mediator, is not [a mediator] of one, but, God, is, one.
21 Zar je dakle Zakon protiv obećanja Božjih? Nipošto! Jer da je dan Zakon koji bi mogao oživljavati, pravednost bi doista proizlazila iz Zakona.
Is, the law, then, against the promises [of God]? Far be it! For, if a law had been given, which had been able to give life, verily, in law, would have been our righteousness;
22 Ali je Pismo sve zatvorilo pod grijeh da se, po vjeri u Isusa Krista, obećano dade onima koji vjeruju.
But the Scripture, did shut up, all things, under sin, that, the promise by faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to them who have faith,
23 Prije dolaska vjere, pod Zakonom zatvoreni, bili smo čuvani za vjeru koja se imala objaviti.
Before the coming of the faith, however, under law, were we being kept in ward, being shut up unto the faith which should afterwards, be revealed.
24 Tako nam je Zakon bio nadzirateljem sve do Krista da se po vjeri opravdamo.
So that, the law, hath proved, our tutor, training us, for Christ, in order that, by faith, we might be declared righteous;
25 A otkako je nadošla vjera, nismo više pod nadzirateljem.
But, the faith having come, no longer, are we, under a tutor; —
26 Uistinu, svi ste sinovi Božji, po vjeri u Kristu Isusu.
For ye, all, are, sons of God, through the faith in Christ Jesus;
27 Doista, koji ste god u Krista kršteni, Kristom se zaodjenuste.
For ye, as many as, into Christ, have been immersed, have put Christ, on:
28 Nema više: Židov - Grk! Nema više: rob - slobodnjak! Nema više: muško - žensko! Svi ste vi Jedan u Kristu Isusu!
There cannot be Jew or Greek, there cannot be bond or free, there cannot be male and female, for, all ye, are one, in Christ Jesus:
29 Ako li ste Kristovi, onda ste Abrahamovo potomstvo, baštinici po obećanju.
Now, if, ye, are of Christ, by consequence ye are, Abraham’s seed, according to promise, heirs.
