Romans 1
1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the gospel of God—
Pavel, služabnik Jezusa Kristusa, poklican, da bi bil apostol, odbran za evangelij Boga,
2 the gospel He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures,
(ki ga je vnaprej obljubil po svojih prerokih v svetih pismih),
3 regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh,
glede svojega Sina Jezusa Kristusa, našega Gospoda, ki je glede na meso zrasel iz Davidovega potomca;
4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.
in z vstajenjem od mrtvih je, glede na duha svetosti, razglasil, da je Božji Sin z močjo;
5 Through Him and on behalf of His name, we received grace and apostleship to call all those among the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith.
po katerem smo zaradi njegovega imena prejeli milost in apostolstvo, za poslušnost veri med vsemi narodi;
6 And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.
med katere ste po Jezusu Kristusu poklicani tudi vi.
7 To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Vsem, ki ste v Rimu, Božji ljubljenci, poklicani, da ste sveti: ›Milost vam in mir od Boga, našega Očeta in Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.‹
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed all over the world.
Najprej se po Jezusu Kristusu zahvaljujem svojemu Bogu za vas vse, da se o vaši veri govori po vsem celotnem svetu.
9 God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of His Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you
Kajti Bog je moja priča, ki mu služim s svojim duhom v evangeliju njegovega Sina, da vas brez prenehanja vedno omenjam v svojih molitvah,
10 in my prayers at all times, asking that now at last by God’s will I may succeed in coming to you.
ker prosim, če bi na kakršenkoli način torej končno lahko imel uspešno potovanje, da po Božji volji pridem k vam.
11 For I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,
Kajti hrepenim, da vas vidim, da bi vam lahko posredoval kak duhoven dar, z namenom, da boste lahko utrjeni;
12 that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.
to je, da bom lahko skupaj z vami potolažen po vzajemni veri, tako vaši kakor moji.
13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, how often I planned to come to you (but have been prevented from visiting until now), in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.
Torej, nočem, da bi bili nepoučeni, bratje, da sem se pogosto namenil priti k vam (toda doslej sem bil zadržan), da bi lahko imel, kakor med drugimi pogani, nekaj sadu tudi med vami.
14 I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.
Dolžnik sem, tako Grkom kakor barbarom, tako modrim, kakor ne modrim.
15 That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.
Torej, kar se mene tiče, sem pripravljen evangelij oznaniti tudi vam, ki ste v Rimu.
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek.
Kajti ne sramujem se Kristusovega evangelija, kajti ta je Božja moč za rešitev duš vsakemu, ki veruje; najprej Judu in tudi Grku.
17 For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that comes by faith from start to finish, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”
Kajti v njem se razodeva Božja pravičnost, iz vere v vero, kakor je pisano: ›Pravični bo živel iz vere.‹
18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness.
Kajti Božji bes je razodet iz nebes zoper vso brezbožnost in nepravičnost ljudi, ki resnico zadržujejo v nepravičnosti;
19 For what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
zato ker je to, kar je lahko spoznano od Boga, očitno v njih; kajti Bog jim je to pokazal.
20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse. (aïdios g126)
Kajti od stvarjenja sveta so nevidne stvari o njem jasno vidne, ker so razumljene po stvareh, ki so narejene; celó njegova večna moč in Božanstvo, tako da so brez opravičila. (aïdios g126)
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but they became futile in their thinking and darkened in their foolish hearts.
Zato ker ko so spoznali Boga, ga niso slavili kakor Boga niti niso bili hvaležni, temveč so v svojih zamislih postali prazni in njihovo nespametno srce je otemnelo.
22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools,
Ker so o sebi izpovedovali, da so modri, so postali bedaki
23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images of mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
in slavo netrohljivega Boga spremenili v podobo, podobno trohljivemu človeku in pticam in štirinožnim živalim in plazečim stvarem.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity for the dishonoring of their bodies with one another.
Zato jih je tudi Bog, zaradi poželenj njihovih lastnih src, prepustil nečistosti, da med seboj onečaščajo svoja lastna telesa.
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is forever worthy of praise! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Ki so Božjo resnico zamenjali v laž in so bolj oboževali in služili stvarstvu kakor Stvarniku, ki je blagoslovljen na veke. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
Zaradi tega razloga jih je Bog prepustil ogabnim strastem; kajti celó njihove ženske so spremenile naravno uporabo v to, kar je protinaravno.
27 Likewise, the men abandoned natural relations with women and burned with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
In prav tako so tudi moški, ki so opustili naravno uporabo ženske, v svojem poželenju goreli eden k drugemu; moški so z moškimi počenjali to, kar je nespodobno in na sebi prejemali to povračilo svoje zablode, ki je bilo primerno.
28 Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.
In celó kot v svojem spoznanju niso želeli obdržati Boga, jih je Bog izročil pokvarjenemu umu, da počenjajo te stvari, ki niso primerne.
29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips,
Izpolnjeni so z vso nepravičnostjo, prešuštvom, zlobnostjo, pohlepnostjo, zlonamernostjo; polni zavisti, umora, razpravljanja, prevar, pogubnosti; opravljivci,
30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, and boastful. They invent new forms of evil; they disobey their parents.
obrekovalci, sovražniki Boga, kruti, ponosni, bahači, izmišljevalci hudobnih stvari, neposlušni staršem,
31 They are senseless, faithless, heartless, merciless.
brez razumevanja, lomilci zavez, brez naravne naklonjenosti, nespravljivi, neusmiljeni.
32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things are worthy of death, they not only continue to do these things, but also approve of those who practice them.
Ki poznajo Božje sodbe, da so tisti, ki zagrešijo takšne stvari, vredni smrti, ne samo, da to počenjajo, temveč imajo zadovoljstvo v tistih, ki jih počno.
