1 Corinthians 7
1 Nowe concerning the thinges whereof ye wrote vnto mee, It were good for a man not to touche a woman.
Sada o onome što ste mi pisali. Dobro je čovjeku ne dotaći ženu.
2 Neuertheles, to auoide fornication, let euery man haue his wife, and let euery woman haue her owne husband.
Ipak, zbog bludnosti, neka svaki ima svoju ženu i svaka neka ima svoga muža.
3 Let the husband giue vnto the wife due beneuolence, and likewise also the wife vnto the husband.
Muž neka vrši dužnost prema ženi, a tako i žena prema mužu.
4 The wife hath not the power of her owne bodie, but ye husband: and likewise also the husband hath not ye power of his own body, but the wife.
Žena nije gospodar svoga tijela, nego muž, a tako ni muž nije gospodar svoga tijela, nego žena.
5 Defraude not one another, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may giue your selues to fasting and praier, and againe come together that Satan tempt you not for your incontinecie.
Ne uskraćujte se jedno drugome, osim po dogovoru, povremeno, da se posvetite molitvi pa se opet združite da vas Sotona ne bi napastovao zbog vaše neizdržljivosti.
6 But I speake this by permission, not by commandement.
Ali to velim kao dopuštenje, ne kao zapovijed.
7 For I woulde that all men were euen as I my selfe am: but euery man hath his proper gift of God, one after this maner, and another after that.
A htio bih da svi ljudi budu kao i ja; ali svatko ima svoj dar od Boga, ovaj ovako, onaj onako.
8 Therefore I say vnto the vnmaried, and vnto the widowes, It is good for them if they abide euen as I doe.
Neoženjenima pak i udovicama velim: dobro im je ako ostanu kao i ja.
9 But if they cannot abstaine, let them marrie: for it is better to marrie then to burne.
Ako li se ne mogu uzdržati, neka se žene, udaju. Jer bolje je ženiti se negoli izgarati.
10 And vnto ye maried I comand, not I, but ye Lord, Let not ye wife depart from her husband.
A oženjenima zapovijedam, ne ja, nego Gospodin: žena neka se od muža ne rastavlja -
11 But and if shee depart, let her remaine vnmaried, or be reconciled vnto her husband, and let not the husband put away his wife.
ako se ipak rastavi, neka ostane neudana ili neka se s mužem pomiri - i muž neka ne otpušta žene.
12 But to ye remnant I speake, and not ye Lord, If any brother haue a wife, ye beleeueth not, if she be content to dwell with him, let him not forsake her.
Ostalima pak velim - ja, ne Gospodin: ima li koji brat ženu nevjernicu i ona privoli stanovati s njime, neka je ne otpušta.
13 And the woman which hath an husband that beleeueth not, if he be content to dwell with her, let her not forsake him.
I žena koja ima muža nevjernika te on privoli stanovati s njome, neka ne otpušta muža.
14 For the vnbeleeuing husband is sanctified to the wife, and the vnbeleeuing wife is sanctified to the husband, els were your children vncleane: but nowe are they holie.
Ta muž nevjernik posvećen je ženom i žena nevjernica posvećena je bratom. Inače bi djeca vaša bila nečista, a ovako - sveta su.
15 But if the vnbeleeuing depart, let him depart: a brother or a sister is not in subiection in such things: but God hath called vs in peace.
Ako li se nevjernik hoće rastaviti, neka se rastavi; brat ili sestra u takvim prilikama nisu vezani: ta na mir nas je pozvao Bog.
16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt saue thine husband? Or what knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt saue thy wife?
Jer što znaš, ženo, hoćeš li spasiti muža? Ili što znaš, mužu, hoćeš li spasiti ženu?
17 But as God hath distributed to euery man, as the Lord hath called euery one, so let him walke: and so ordaine I, in all Churches.
U drugome svatko neka živi kako mu je Gospodin dodijelio, kako ga je Bog pozvao. Tako određujem po svim crkvama.
18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not gather his vncircumcision: is any called vncircumcised? let him not be circumcised.
Je li tko pozvan kao obrezan, neka ne prepravlja obrezanja. Ako je pozvan kao neobrezan, neka se ne obrezuje.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and vncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandements of God.
Obrezanje nije ništa i neobrezanje nije ništa, nego - držanje Božjih zapovijedi.
20 Let euery man abide in the same vocation wherein he was called.
Svatko neka ostane u onom zvanju u koje je pozvan.
21 Art thou called being a seruant? care not for it: but if yet thou maiest be free, vse it rather.
Jesi li pozvan kao rob? Ne brini! Nego, ako i možeš postati slobodan, radije se okoristi.
22 For he that is called in the Lord, being. a seruant, is the Lords freeman: likewise also he that is called being free, is Christes seruant.
Jer tko je u Gospodinu pozvan kao rob, slobodnjak je Gospodnji. Tako i tko je pozvan kao slobodnjak, rob je Kristov.
23 Yee are bought with a price: be not the seruants of men.
Otkupninom ste kupljeni: ne budite robovi ljudima.
24 Brethren, let euery man, wherein hee was called, therein abide with God.
Svatko u čemu je pozvan, braćo, u tome neka i ostane pred Bogom.
25 Nowe concerning virgines, I haue no commandement of the Lord: but I giue mine aduise, as one that hath obtained mercie of the Lord to be faithfull.
O djevicama nemam zapovijedi, nego dajem savjet kao čovjek po milosrđu Gospodnjem vrijedan povjerenja.
26 I suppose then this to bee good for the present necessitie: I meane that it is good for a man so to be.
Smatram dakle: dobro je to zbog sadašnje nevolje, dobro je čovjeku tako biti.
27 Art thou bounde vnto a wife? seeke not to be loosed: art thou loosed from a wife? seeke not a wife.
Jesi li vezan za ženu? Ne traži rastave. Jesi li slobodan od žene? Ne traži žene.
28 But if thou takest a wife, thou sinnest not: and if a virgine marrie, shee sinneth not: neuerthelesse, such shall haue trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
Ali ako se i oženiš, nisi sagriješio; i djevica ako se uda, nije sagriješila. Ali takvi će imati tjelesnu nevolju, a ja bih vas rado poštedio.
29 And this I say, brethren, because the time is short, hereafter that both they which haue wiues, be as though they had none:
Ovo hoću reći, braćo: Vrijeme je kratko. Odsele i koji imaju žene, neka budu kao da ih nemaju;
30 And they that weepe, as though they wept not: and they that reioyce, as though they reioyced not: and they that bye, as though they possessed not:
i koji plaču, kao da ne plaču; i koji se vesele, kao da se ne vesele; i koji kupuju, kao da ne posjeduju;
31 And they that vse this worlde, as though they vsed it not: for the fashion of this worlde goeth away.
i koji uživaju ovaj svijet, kao da ga ne uživaju, jer - prolazi obličje ovoga svijeta.
32 And I would haue you without care. The vnmaried careth for the things of the Lord, howe he may please the Lord.
A rado bih da budete bezbrižni. Neoženjen se brine za Gospodnje, kako da ugodi Gospodinu.
33 But hee that is maried, careth for the things of the world, how he may please his wife.
A oženjen se brine za svjetovno, kako da ugodi ženi,
34 There is difference also betweene a virgine and a wife: the vnmaried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy, both in body and in spirite: but shee that is maried, careth for the things of the worlde, howe shee may please her husband.
pa je razdijeljen. I žena neudana i djevica brine se za Gospodnje, da bude sveta i tijelom i duhom; a udana se brine za svjetovno, kako da ugodi mužu.
35 And this I speake for your owne commoditie, not to tangle you in a snare, but that yee follow that, which is honest, and that yee may cleaue fast vnto the Lord without separation.
Ovo pak govorim vama na korist, ne da vam postavim zamku, nego da primjerno i nesmetano budete privrženi Gospodinu.
36 But if any man thinke that it is vncomely for his virgine, if shee passe the flower of her age, and neede so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them be maried.
Misli li tko da je nepriličan prema svojoj djevici kad je preživotan i s njome mora biti, neka čini što je nakanio, ne griješi: neka se uzmu.
37 Neuerthelesse, hee that standeth firme in his heart, that hee hath no neede, but hath power ouer his owne will, and hath so decreed in his heart, that hee will keepe his virgine, hee doeth well.
Tko je pak nepokolebljivo stalan u srcu te nema potrebe, a u vlasti mu je volja pa to odluči u svom srcu - čuvati svoju djevicu - dobro čini.
38 So then hee that giueth her to mariage, doeth well, but he that giueth her not to mariage, doeth better.
Tako, tko se oženi svojom djevicom, dobro čini, a tko se ne oženi, bolje čini.
39 The wife is bounde by the Lawe, as long as her husband liueth: but if her husband bee dead, shee is at libertie to marie with whome she will, onely in the Lord.
Žena je vezana dokle živi muž njezin. Umre li muž, slobodna je: neka se uda za koga hoće, samo u Gospodinu.
40 But shee is more blessed, if she so abide, in my iudgement: and I thinke that I haue also the Spirite of God.
Bit će ipak blaženija ostane li onako, po mojem savjetu. A mislim da i ja imam Duha Božjega.
