1 Corinthians 4
1 Let a man so thinke of vs, as of the ministers of Christ, and disposers of the secrets of God:
Tako naj za nas misli človek, kakor da smo hlapci Kristusovi in oskrbniki skrivnosti Božjih.
2 And as for the rest, it is required of the disposers, that euery man be found faithfull.
Kar se pa v ostalem išče od oskrbnikov, to je, da se vsak zvest najde.
3 As touching me, I passe very litle to be iudged of you, or of mans iudgement: no, I iudge not mine owne selfe.
Meni je pa to najmanje, da me sodite vi ali človečji dan; ali tudi sam sebe ne sodim.
4 For I know nothing by my selfe, yet am I not thereby iustified: but he that iudgeth me, is the Lord.
Kajti ničesar sam sebi nimam očitati, ali to me ne opravičuje; a sodnik mi je Gospod.
5 Therefore iudge nothing before the time, vntill the Lord come, who will lighten things that are hid in darkenesse, and make the counsels of the hearts manifest: and then shall euery man haue praise of God.
Tako pred časom nič ne sodíte, dokler ne pride Gospod, kteri bo razsvetil, kar je skrito tme in odkril misli srčne, in tedaj se bo hvala zgodila vsakemu od Boga.
6 Nowe these things, brethren, I haue figuratiuely applied vnto mine owne selfe and Apollos, for your sakes, that ye might learne by vs, that no man presume aboue that which is written, that one swell not against another for any mans cause.
To sem pa, bratje, obrnil na se in na Apola za voljo vas; da se od naju naučite ne više o sebi misliti, nego je pisano, da se nikdor nad nikogar ne napihujete za drugega.
7 For who separateth thee? and what hast thou, that thou hast not receiued? if thou hast receiued it, why reioycest thou, as though thou haddest not receiued it?
Ker kdo te razloča? kaj pa imaš, česar nisi prejel? če si pa tudi prejel, kaj se hvališ, kakor da nisi prejel?
8 Nowe ye are full: nowe ye are made rich: ye reigne as kings without vs, and would to God ye did reigne, that we also might reigne with you.
Uže ste nasičeni, uže ste obogateli, brez nas ste zakraljevali, in Bog daj, da bi bili zakraljevali, da bi tudi mi z vami zakraljevali.
9 For I thinke that God hath set forth vs the last Apostles, as men appointed to death: for we are made a gasing stocke vnto the worlde, and to the Angels, and to men.
Ker mislim, da je Bog nas aposteljne poslednje postavil kakor te, kteri so za smrt odločeni, ker smo postali pogled svetu in angeljem in ljudém.
10 We are fooles for Christes sake, and ye are wise in Christ: we are weake, and ye are strong: ye are honourable, and we are despised.
Mi smo neumni za voljo Kristusa, a vi razumni v Kristusu; mi slabi, a vi močni; vi slavni, a mi brez časti.
11 Vnto this houre we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and haue no certaine dwelling place,
Noter do te ure tudi trpimo lakoto in žejo in goli smo in bijejo nas za ušesa in nimamo stalnega mesta,
12 And labour, working with our owne handes: we are reuiled, and yet we blesse: we are persecuted, and suffer it.
In trudimo se delajoč z lastnimi rokami; ko nas izmerjajo, blagoslavljamo; ko nas preganjajo, trpimo;
13 We are euill spoken of, and we pray: we are made as the filth of the world, the offskowring of all things, vnto this time.
Ko nas preklinjajo, molimo; kakor smeti sveta smo postali, vseh opláčina noter do sedaj.
14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloued children I admonish you.
Ne pišem tega, da bi vas sramotil, nego vas kakor svoje ljubljene otroke svarim.
15 For though ye haue tenne thousand instructours in Christ, yet haue ye not many fathers: for in Christ Iesus I haue begotten you through the Gospel.
Kajti če imate deset tisoči učiteljev v Kristusu, ali nimate mnogo očetov, ker v Kristusu Jezusu po evangelji sem vas jaz rodil.
16 Wherefore, I pray you, be ye folowers of me.
Prosim vas torej, bodite moji posnemalci.
17 For this cause haue I sent vnto you Timotheus, which is my beloued sonne, and faithfull in the Lord, which shall put you in remembrance of my wayes in Christ as I teache euery where in euery Church.
Za to sem vam poslal Timoteja, kteri je dete moje ljubljeno in verno v Gospodu, kteri vas bo opomenil mojih poti, ktere so v Kristusu, kakor povsodi v vsakej cerkvi učim.
18 Some are puffed vp as though I woulde not come vnto you.
Kakor da ne bi k vam prišel, napihnili so se nekteri.
19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will knowe, not the wordes of them which are puffed vp, but the power.
Ali prišel bom kmalu k vam, če Gospod hoče, in bom spoznal ne besedo napihnenih, nego moč.
20 For the kingdome of God is not in worde, but in power.
Kajti ni v besedi kraljestvo Božje, nego v moči.
21 What will ye? shall I come vnto you with a rod, or in loue, and in ye spirite of meekenes?
Kaj hočete? da pridem k vam s šibo ali z ljubeznijo in v duhu krotkosti?
