Rimljanima 1
1 Pavao, sluga Krista Isusa, pozvan za apostola, odlučen za evanđelje Božje -
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called Apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,
2 koje Bog unaprijed obećavaše po svojim prorocima u Pismima svetim
(which he formerly announced by his prophets, in the Sacred Writings, )
3 o Sinu svome, potomku Davidovu po tijelu,
concerning his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord; descended from David, as to his flesh,
4 postavljenu Sinom Božjim, u snazi, po Duhu posvetitelju uskrsnućem od mrtvih, o Isusu Kristu, Gospodinu našemu,
and constituted the Son of God, with power, as to his holy spiritual nature, after his resurrection from the dead:
5 po komu primismo milost i apostolstvo da na slavu imena njegova k poslušnosti vjere privodimo sve pogane
by whom we have received favor, even the apostolic office, for the obedience of faith among all nations, for his name's sake:
6 među kojima ste i vi pozvanici Isusa Krista:
among whom are you, also, called of Jesus Christ:
7 svima u Rimu, miljenicima Božjim, pozvanicima, svetima. Milost vam i mir od Boga, Oca našega, i Gospodina Isusa Krista.
To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints; favor be to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 Ponajprije zahvaljujem Bogu mojemu po Isusu Kristu za sve vas: što se vaša vjera navješćuje po svem svijetu.
First of all, I thank my God, through the Lord Jesus Christ, for you all, that your faith is published in all the world.
9 Doista, svjedok mi je Bog - komu duhom svojim služim u evanđelju Sina njegova - da vas se
For God is my witness, whom I serve sincerely in the gospel of his Son, that continually I make mention of you;
10 u svojim molitvama neprekidno spominjem i uvijek molim ne bi li mi se već jednom s voljom Božjom nekako posrećilo doći k vama.
always in my prayers, requesting that, by some means, now at length, I may have a prosperous journey, (God willing, ) to come to you.
11 Jer čeznem vidjeti vas da vam predam nešto dara duhovnoga te se ojačate, zapravo -
For I greatly desire to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, that you may be established;
12 da se zajedno s vama ohrabrim zajedničkom vjerom, vašom i mojom.
and that I may be comforted, together with you, through the mutual faith both of you and me.
13 A ne bih htio, braćo, da ne znate: često sam bio nakanio doći k vama - i sve dosad bio spriječen - da i među vama uberem koji plod kao i među drugim narodima.
Now, brethren, I would not have you ignorant, that I often purposed to come to you, thought I have, as yet been hindered; that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the other Gentiles.
14 Dužnik sam Grcima i barbarima, mudracima i neznalicama.
I am a debtor, both to the Greeks and to the barbarians; both to the wise and to the unwise.
15 Odatle moja nakana da i vama u Rimu navijestim evanđelje.
Therefore, I am willing, according to my ability, to declare the glad tidings, even to you who are in Rome.
16 Ne stidim se, uistinu, evanđelja: ono je snaga Božja na spasenje svakomu tko vjeruje - Židovu najprije, pa Grku.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel; because it is the power of God for salvation, to every one who believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 Jer pravednost se Božja od vjere k vjeri u njemu otkriva kao što je pisano: Pravednik će od vjere živjeti.
For in it the justification of God by faith is revealed, in order to faith; as it is written, "Now the just by faith, shall live."
18 Otkriva se doista s neba gnjev Božji na svaku bezbožnost i nepravednost ljudi koji istinu sputavaju nepravednošću.
Besides the wrath of God is revealed from heaven, against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth by unrighteousness.
19 Jer što se o Bogu može spoznati, očito im je: Bog im očitova.
Because that which may be known of God is manifest among them, for God has manifested it to them:
20 Uistinu, ono nevidljivo njegovo, vječna njegova moć i božanstvo, onamo od stvaranja svijeta, umom se po djelima razabire tako da nemaju isprike. (aïdios g126)
(for his invisible attributes, even his eternal power and divinity, since the creation of the world, are very evident; being known by his works: ) so that they are inexcusable. (aïdios g126)
21 Jer premda upoznaše Boga, ne iskazaše mu kao Bogu ni slavu ni zahvalnost, nego ishlapiše u mozganjima svojim te se pomrači bezumno srce njihovo.
Because, though they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, neither gave him thanks; but became foolish by their own reasonings, and their inconsiderate heart was darkened.
22 Gradeći se mudrima, poludješe i
Professing to be wise men, they became fools:
23 zamijeniše slavu neraspadljivog Boga likom, obličjem raspadljiva čovjeka, i ptica, i četveronožaca, i gmazova.
for they changed the glory of the immortal God into the likeness of an image of mortal man, of fowls, or four-footed beasts, and of reptiles.
24 Zato ih je Bog po pohotama srdaca njihovih predao nečistoći te sami obeščašćuju svoja tijela,
Therefore, also, God, through the lusts of their own hearts, delivered them over to uncleanness, to dishonor their own bodies among themselves.
25 oni što su Istinu - Boga zamijenili lažju, častili i štovali stvorenje umjesto Stvoritelja, koji je blagoslovljen u vjekove. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Who changed the truth concerning God, into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature, rather than the Creator, who is forever blessed. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 Stoga ih je Bog predao sramotnim strastima: njihove žene zamijeniše naravno općenje protunaravnim,
For this, God delivered them over to shameful passions; for even their females changed the natural use unto what is contrary to nature.
27 a tako su i muškarci napustili naravno općenje sa ženom i raspalili se pohotom jedni za drugima te muškarci s muškarcima sramotno čine i sami na sebi primaju zasluženu plaću svoga zastranjenja.
In like manner, also, the males, leaving the natural use of the female, burned in their lust toward one another, males with males, working out that which is shameful, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due.
28 I kako nisu smatrali vrijednim držati se spoznaje Boga, predade ih Bog nevaljanu umu te čine što ne dolikuje,
And as they did not like to acknowledge God, God delivered them over to an undiscerning mind, to work those things which are not suitable;
29 puni svake nepravde, pakosti, lakomosti, zloće; puni zavisti, ubojstva, svađe, prijevare, zlonamjernosti; došaptavači,
being filled with all injustice, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, bad habits, whisperers,
30 klevetnici, mrzitelji Boga, drznici, oholice, preuzetnici, izmišljači zala, roditeljima neposlušni,
revilers, haters of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil pleasure, disobedient to parents,
31 nerazumni, nevjerni, bešćutni, nemilosrdni.
impudent, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful.
32 Znaju za odredbu Božju - da smrt zaslužuju koji takvo što čine - a oni ne samo da to čine nego i povlađuju onima koji čine.
Some, who clearly understand the law of God, (that they who practice such things are worthy of death, ) not only do these things, but even commend those who practice them.
