2 Corinthians 5
1 Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is dismantled, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. (aiōnios g166)
Ker vemo, če zemeljska naša hiša prebivanja razpade, da imamo prebivališče od Boga, hišo ne z rokami napravljeno, večno v nebesih. (aiōnios g166)
2 For in this tent we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling,
Kajti tudi v tem zdihujemo, želeč obleči se v prebivališče svoje, ktero je iz nebes,
3 because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.
Če se bomo le tudi oblečeni, ne goli našli.
4 So while we are in this tent, we groan under our burdens, because we do not wish to be unclothed but clothed, so that our mortality may be swallowed up by life.
Kajti kteri smo v tem prebivanji, zdihujemo obteženi; ker se ne čemo sleči, nego na to obleči, da življenje pogoltne to, kar je smrtno.
5 And God has prepared us for this very purpose and has given us the Spirit as a pledge of what is to come.
Kteri nas je pa ravno za to ustvaril, Bog je, kteri nam je tudi dal zalog duha.
6 Therefore we are always confident, although we know that while we are at home in the body, we are away from the Lord.
Dobre volje smo torej vsegdar in vemo, dokler smo v telesu doma, da potujemo na tujem, od Gospoda.
7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
(Ker po veri hodimo, ne po gledanji.)
8 We are confident, then, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
Ali smo dobre volje in hočemo rajši izseliti se iz telesa in naseliti se k Gospodu.
9 So we aspire to please Him, whether we are here in this body or away from it.
Za to tudi hrepenimo biti mu ugodni, bodi si da smo doma, bodi si da smo se izselili.
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad.
Kajti vsi se moramo pokazati pred sodišče Kristusovo, da prejme vsak po tem, kar je v telesu storil, bodi si dobro, bodi si hudo.
11 Therefore, since we know what it means to fear the Lord, we try to persuade men. What we are is clear to God, and I hope it is clear to your conscience as well.
Vedoč torej za strah Gospodov ljudem svetujemo, a Bogu smo razodeti. Upam pa, da smo tudi v vaših vestih razodeti.
12 We are not commending ourselves to you again. Instead, we are giving you an occasion to be proud of us, so that you can answer those who take pride in appearances rather than in the heart.
Ker vam zopet sami sebe ne hvalimo, nego vam priložnost dajemo hvaliti se z nami, da imate kaj proti tem, kteri se na lice hvalijo in ne v srcu.
13 If we are out of our mind, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you.
Ker če smo predaleč stopili, Bogu smo, če smo pa zmerni, vam smo.
14 For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that One died for all, therefore all died.
Kajti ljubezen Kristusova nas priganja, kteri smo to sodili da, če je eden za vse umrl, po tem so vsi umrli;
15 And He died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died for them and was raised again.
In za vse je umrl, da bi ti, kteri živé, nič več za se ne živeli, nego za tega, kteri je za nje umrl in vstal.
16 So from now on we regard no one according to the flesh. Although we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.
Tako mi od sedaj nikogar ne poznamo po mesu; če smo pa tudi poznali po mesu Kristusa, ali sedaj nič več ne poznamo.
17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has come!
Tako če je kdo v Kristusu, novo stvarjenje je; staro je prešlo, lej, postalo je novo vse.
18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:
A vse to je od Boga, kteri nas je spravil s seboj po Jezusu Kristusu in nam je dal službo sprave.
19 that God was reconciling the world to Himself in Christ, not counting men’s trespasses against them. And He has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
Kajti Bog je bil v Kristusu in je svet spravil s seboj in ni mu zaračunil njegovih pregreh in položil je v nas besedo sprave.
20 Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making His appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ: Be reconciled to God.
Na mesto Kristusa smo torej poslani, kakor da bi Bog opominjal po nas. Prosimo na mesto Kristusa: spravite se z Bogom.
21 God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.
Kajti tega, kteri ni vedel za greh, storil je za voljo nas greh, da bi bili mi pravica Božja v njem.
