Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle—not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised Him out of the dead—
Pavel, apostol (ne od ljudi niti ne po človeku, temveč po Jezusu Kristusu in Bogu Očetu, ki ga je obudil od mrtvih)
2 and all the brothers with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:
in vsi bratje, ki so z menoj, cerkvam v Galatiji:
3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
›Milost bodi vam in mir od Boga Očeta in od našega Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa,
4 who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us out of the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
ki je samega sebe dal za naše grehe, da nas lahko osvobodi iz tega sedanjega hudobnega sveta, glede na voljo Boga in našega Očeta, (aiōn g165)
ki mu bodi slava na veke vekov. Amen.‹ (aiōn g165)
6 I wonder that you are so quickly removed from Him who called you in the grace of Christ to another good news—
Čudim se, da ste se tako hitro oddaljili od tistega, ki vas je poklical v Kristusovo milost, k drugemu evangeliju,
7 not that there is another, except there are certain who are troubling you, and wishing to pervert the good news of the Christ;
ki ni drug, temveč so tam nekateri, ki vas vznemirjajo in hočejo izkriviti Kristusov evangelij.
8 but even if we or a messenger out of Heaven may proclaim good news to you different from what we proclaimed to you—let him be accursed!
Toda čeprav vam mi ali angel iz nebes oznanja kak drug evangelij, kakor tega, ki smo vam ga oznanili, naj bo ta preklet.
9 As we have said before, and now say again: if anyone may proclaim to you good news different from what you received—let him be accursed!
Kakor smo rekli prej, tako ponovno govorim sedaj: »Če vam katerikoli človek oznani kak drug evangelij, kakor ta, ki ste ga prejeli, naj bo preklet.«
10 For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men—I should not be Christ’s servant.
Kajti ali sedaj pregovarjam ljudi ali Boga? Ali poskušam ugajati ljudem? Kajti če bi še ugajal ljudem, ne bi bil Kristusov služabnik.
11 And I make known to you, brothers, the good news that was proclaimed by me, that it is not according to man,
Toda potrjujem vam, bratje, da evangelij, ki je bil oznanjen po meni, ni po človeku.
12 for neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught [it], but through a revelation of Jesus Christ,
Kajti niti ga nisem prejel od človeka niti se ga nisem naučil, temveč po razodetju Jezusa Kristusa.
13 for you heard of my behavior once in Judaism, that I was exceedingly persecuting the Assembly of God, and destroying it,
Kajti slišali ste o mojem vedênju, v preteklem času v judovski religiji, da sem preko mere preganjal Božjo cerkev in jo pustošil,
14 and I was advancing in Judaism above many equals in age in my own race, being more abundantly zealous of my fathers’ deliverances,
in v judovski religiji napredoval nad mnoge svoje vrstnike v svojem lastnem narodu in bil še silno vnet za izročila svojih očetov.
15 and when God was well pleased—having separated me from the womb of my mother, and having called [me] through His grace—
Toda ko je Bogu, ki me je od maternice moje matere odbral in me poklical po svoji milosti, ugajalo,
16 to reveal His Son in me, that I might proclaim Him as good news among the nations, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,
da v meni razodene svojega Sina, da bi ga lahko oznanjal med pogani, se nisem takoj posvetoval z mesom in krvjo,
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away to Arabia, and again returned to Damascus;
niti nisem odšel gor v Jeruzalem k tem, ki so bili apostoli pred menoj, temveč sem odšel v Arabijo in se ponovno vrnil v Damask.
18 then, after three years I went up to Jerusalem to inquire about Peter, and remained with him fifteen days,
Potem sem po treh letih odšel gor v Jeruzalem, da vidim Petra in z njim ostal petnajst dni.
19 and I did not see [any] other of the apostles, except James, the brother of the LORD.
Toda izmed apostolov nisem videl nobenega drugega, razen Jakoba, Gospodovega brata.
20 And the things that I write to you, behold, before God—I do not lie;
Torej stvari, ki vam jih pišem, glejte, pred Bogom, ne lažem.
21 then I came into the regions of Syria and of Cilicia,
Kasneje sem prišel v področja Sirije in Kilikije;
22 and was unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea, that [are] in Christ,
in po obrazu sem bil nepoznan cerkvam v Judeji, ki so bile v Kristusu,
23 and they were only hearing that “he who is persecuting us then, now proclaims good news—the faith that he was then destroying”;
toda samo slišali so: »Da tisti, ki nas je v preteklih časih preganjal, sedaj oznanja vero, ki jo je nekoč uničeval.«
24 and they were glorifying God in me.
In slavili so Boga v meni.
