Romans 1
1 Paul a seruant of Iesus Christ called to be an Apostle, put apart to preache the Gospel of God,
Pavao, sluga Krista Isusa, pozvan za apostola, odlučen za evanđelje Božje -
2 (Which he had promised afore by his Prophetes in the holy Scriptures)
koje Bog unaprijed obećavaše po svojim prorocima u Pismima svetim
3 Concerning his Sonne Iesus Christ our Lord (which was made of the seede of Dauid according to the flesh,
o Sinu svome, potomku Davidovu po tijelu,
4 And declared mightily to be the Sonne of God, touching the Spirit of sanctification by the resurrection from the dead)
postavljenu Sinom Božjim, u snazi, po Duhu posvetitelju uskrsnućem od mrtvih, o Isusu Kristu, Gospodinu našemu,
5 By whom we haue receiued grace and Apostleship (that obedience might be giuen vnto ye faith) for his Name among al ye Gentiles,
po komu primismo milost i apostolstvo da na slavu imena njegova k poslušnosti vjere privodimo sve pogane
6 Among whom ye be also the called of Iesus Christ:
među kojima ste i vi pozvanici Isusa Krista:
7 To all you that be at Rome beloued of God, called to be Saints: Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.
svima u Rimu, miljenicima Božjim, pozvanicima, svetima. Milost vam i mir od Boga, Oca našega, i Gospodina Isusa Krista.
8 First I thanke my God through Iesus Christ for you all, because your faith is published throughout the whole world.
Ponajprije zahvaljujem Bogu mojemu po Isusu Kristu za sve vas: što se vaša vjera navješćuje po svem svijetu.
9 For God is my witnesse (whom I serue in my spirit in the Gospel of his Sonne) that without ceasing I make mention of you
Doista, svjedok mi je Bog - komu duhom svojim služim u evanđelju Sina njegova - da vas se
10 Alwayes in my prayers, beseeching that by some meanes, one time or other I might haue a prosperous iourney by the will of God, to come vnto you.
u svojim molitvama neprekidno spominjem i uvijek molim ne bi li mi se već jednom s voljom Božjom nekako posrećilo doći k vama.
11 For I long to see you, that I might bestowe among you some spirituall gift, that you might be strengthened:
Jer čeznem vidjeti vas da vam predam nešto dara duhovnoga te se ojačate, zapravo -
12 That is, that I might be comforted together with you, through our mutuall faith, both yours and mine.
da se zajedno s vama ohrabrim zajedničkom vjerom, vašom i mojom.
13 Now my brethren, I would that ye should not be ignorant, how that I haue oftentimes purposed to come vnto you (but haue bene let hitherto) that I might haue some fruite also among you, as I haue among the other Gentiles.
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.
14 I am detter both to the Grecians, and to the Barbarians, both to the wise men and vnto the vnwise.
Dužnik sam Grcima i barbarima, mudracima i neznalicama.
15 Therefore, as much as in me is, I am readie to preach ye Gospel to you also that are at Rome.
Odatle moja nakana da i vama u Rimu navijestim evanđelje.
16 For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God vnto saluation to euery one that beleeueth, to the Iewe first, and also to the Grecian.
Ne stidim se, uistinu, evanđelja: ono je snaga Božja na spasenje svakomu tko vjeruje - Židovu najprije, pa Grku.
17 For by it the righteousnesse of God is reueiled from faith to faith: as it is written, The iust shall liue by faith.
Jer pravednost se Božja od vjere k vjeri u njemu otkriva kao što je pisano: Pravednik će od vjere živjeti.
18 For the wrath of God is reueiled from heauen against all vngodlinesse, and vnrighteousnesse of men, which withhold the trueth in vnrighteousnesse.
Otkriva se doista s neba gnjev Božji na svaku bezbožnost i nepravednost ljudi koji istinu sputavaju nepravednošću.
19 Forasmuch as that, which may be knowe of God, is manifest in them: for God hath shewed it vnto them.
Jer što se o Bogu može spoznati, očito im je: Bog im očitova.
20 For the inuisible things of him, that is, his eternal power and Godhead, are seene by ye creation of the worlde, being considered in his workes, to the intent that they should be without excuse: (aïdios g126)
Uistinu, ono nevidljivo njegovo, vječna njegova moć i božanstvo, onamo od stvaranja svijeta, umom se po djelima razabire tako da nemaju isprike. (aïdios g126)
21 Because that when they knewe God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankefull, but became vaine in their thoughtes, and their foolish heart was full of darkenesse.
Jer premda upoznaše Boga, ne iskazaše mu kao Bogu ni slavu ni zahvalnost, nego ishlapiše u mozganjima svojim te se pomrači bezumno srce njihovo.
22 When they professed themselues to be wise, they became fooles.
Gradeći se mudrima, poludješe i
23 For they turned the glorie of the incorruptible God to the similitude of the image of a corruptible man, and of birdes, and foure footed beastes, and of creeping things.
zamijeniše slavu neraspadljivog Boga likom, obličjem raspadljiva čovjeka, i ptica, i četveronožaca, i gmazova.
24 Wherefore also God gaue them vp to their hearts lusts, vnto vncleannesse, to defile their owne bodies betweene themselues:
Zato ih je Bog po pohotama srdaca njihovih predao nečistoći te sami obeščašćuju svoja tijela,
25 Which turned the trueth of God vnto a lie, and worshipped and serued the creature, forsaking the Creator, which is blessed for euer, Amen. (aiōn g165)
oni što su Istinu - Boga zamijenili lažju, častili i štovali stvorenje umjesto Stvoritelja, koji je blagoslovljen u vjekove. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 For this cause God gaue them vp vnto vile affections: for euen their women did change the naturall vse into that which is against nature.
Stoga ih je Bog predao sramotnim strastima: njihove žene zamijeniše naravno općenje protunaravnim,
27 And likewise also the men left the naturall vse of the woman, and burned in their lust one toward another, and man with man wrought filthinesse, and receiued in themselues such recompence of their errour, as was meete.
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.
28 For as they regarded not to acknowledge God, euen so God deliuered them vp vnto a reprobate minde, to doe those things which are not conuenient,
I kako nisu smatrali vrijednim držati se spoznaje Boga, predade ih Bog nevaljanu umu te čine što ne dolikuje,
29 Being full of all vnrighteousnesse, fornication, wickednes, couetousnes, maliciousnes, full of enuie, of murder, of debate, of deceit, taking all things in the euill part, whisperers,
puni svake nepravde, pakosti, lakomosti, zloće; puni zavisti, ubojstva, svađe, prijevare, zlonamjernosti; došaptavači,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, doers of wrong, proude, boasters, inuenters of euil things, disobedient to parents,
klevetnici, mrzitelji Boga, drznici, oholice, preuzetnici, izmišljači zala, roditeljima neposlušni,
31 without vnderstanding, couenant breakers, without naturall affection, such as can neuer be appeased, mercilesse.
nerazumni, nevjerni, bešćutni, nemilosrdni.
32 Which men, though they knew ye Lawe of God, how that they which comit such things are worthie of death, yet not onely do the same, but also fauour them that doe them.
Znaju za odredbu Božju - da smrt zaslužuju koji takvo što čine - a oni ne samo da to čine nego i povlađuju onima koji čine.
