Ephesians 5
1 (Imitate/Behave like) God, because he loves you who are [as though you were] [SIM] his children.
Buďtež tedy následovníci Boží, jakožto synové milí.
2 Do everything in a way that shows that you love [people], just like Christ loved us and willingly died for us. He offered himself [to God as a sacrifice] that was very pleasing to God, [just like Jewish priests offered] sweet-smelling [animal] sacrifices to God [MET].
A choďtež v lásce, jakož i Kristus miloval nás, a vydal sebe samého za nás, dar a obět Bohu u vůni rozkošnou.
3 Do not commit any kind of immoral act [DOU], and do not desire more things than you need. Do not [act in such a way that others could] even (spread rumors/talk) about your acting in such ways, because it is not appropriate/fitting for God’s people to do such things.
Smilstvo pak a všeliká nečistota, neb lakomství, aniž jmenováno buď mezi vámi, jakož sluší na svaté,
4 Do not use obscene/shameful language when you talk to people. Do not talk foolishly. Do not use vulgar/indecent language, because it is not appropriate/fitting that God’s people should talk like that. Instead, tell people how much you thank [God for all he does for you].
A tolikéž mrzkost, ani bláznové mluvení, ani šprýmování, kteréžto věci jsou nenáležité, ale raději ať jest díků činění.
5 You can be sure of this: No person who is sexually immoral or who acts indecently/shamefully will be among those people whom God rules over [MET] [in heaven]. Neither will those who desire more things than they need. Such people worship their possessions [instead of worshipping God].
Víte zajisté o tom, že žádný smilník aneb nečistý, ani lakomec, (jenž jest modloslužebník, ) nemá dědictví v království Kristově a Božím.
6 Do not let anyone deceive you by suggesting that [God will really] not [punish people who commit such sins], because God certainly will punish [MTY] those who habitually disobey him [by doing such things].
Žádný vás nesvoď marnými řečmi; nebo pro takové věci přichází hněv Boží na syny nepoddané.
7 So, do not commit the same kinds of deeds that such people do,
Nebývejtež tedy účastníci jejich.
8 because formerly you [did not know God’s truth] [MET], [as those who] are in darkness [do not know what is around them]. But now [it is as though] you are in the light [MET] [because you know God’s truth] because of your relationship with the Lord [Jesus]. So do those things that those who know God’s truth [MET] should do.
Byli jste zajisté někdy temnosti, ale již nyní jste světlo v Pánu. Jakožto synové světla choďte,
9 Keep in mind that [as] light [MET] causes [good things to grow], those who know God’s truth should do those things that are good, righteous, and honest.
(Nebo ovoce Ducha záleží ve vší dobrotě, a spravedlnosti, a v pravdě, )
10 And as [you do that], try (to find out/to discover) what pleases the Lord.
O to stojíce, což by se dobře líbilo Pánu.
11 Do not do the worthless deeds that the people (who are in [spiritual] darkness/who do not know God’s truth) [MET] do. Instead, let others know that those people’s deeds are worthless.
A neobcujte s skutky neužitečnými tmy, ale raději je trescete.
12 It is shameful for God’s people to even talk [among themselves about] those evil deeds that evil people do secretly and habitually.
Nebo což se tajně děje od nich, mrzko jest o tom i mluviti.
13 But when [God’s people rebuke those evil people about their deeds, it will be clear/evident how evil their deeds really are, just like] everything exposed to the light becomes visible {as light [MET] reveals everything [that we cannot see in the darkness]}.
Všecko pak, což bývá trestáno, od světla bývá zjeveno; nebo to, což všecko zjevuje, světlo jest.
14 [Just like something on which a light shines reflects that light] [MET], [whoever has learned God’s truth reveals that truth to others]. That is why [we believers] say this: You who are not aware of your sins, become aware of them [MET]! It is as though you are sound asleep, so wake up! Be like dead people who are becoming alive again! Christ will cause you to know God’s truth, just like a light [MET] that shines causes people to know what is in the darkness.
Protož praví: Probuď se ty, jenž spíš, a vstaň z mrtvých, a zasvítíť se tobě Kristus.
15 So be very careful how you behave. Do not behave as foolish people do. Instead, behave as wise people do.
Viztež tedy, kterak byste opatrně chodili, ne jako nemoudří, ale jako moudří,
16 Use your time carefully, because these days [MTY] [people do] extremely evil [deeds].
Vykupujíce čas; nebo dnové zlí jsou.
17 So do not be foolish. Instead, understand what the Lord [Jesus] wants you to do, [and do it]!
Protož nebývejte neopatrní, ale rozumějící, která by byla vůle Páně.
18 Do not become drunk by drinking alcoholic drinks, since people are unable to control their behavior when they are drunk. Instead, let [God’s] Spirit control your [behavior] at all times [MTY].
A neopíjejte se vínem, v němžto jest prostopášnost, ale naplněni buďte Duchem svatým,
19 Sing to each other (Psalms/songs [with words from the] Scriptures), sing [other] songs [that the congregation knows], and songs [that God’s] Spirit [gives you]. Sing these Psalms and other songs sincerely to [praise] the Lord [Jesus].
Mluvíce sobě vespolek v žalmích, a v chvalách, a v písničkách duchovních, zpívajíce a plésajíce v srdcích vašich Pánu,
20 At all times thank God, who is our [heavenly] Father, for everything, especially for what the Lord Jesus Christ [MTY] [has done for you].
Díky činíce vždycky ze všeho ve jménu Pána našeho Jezukrista Bohu a Otci,
21 [Humbly] submit yourselves to each other because you reverence Christ, [who is our example].
Poddáni jsouce jedni druhým v bázni Boží.
22 Because husbands have authority over [MET] their wives, just as all of us believers form one group [under the authority of] Christ, you women should submit yourselves to [the authority of your] husbands just as you submit yourselves to the Lord [Jesus]. He is the one who saves all his people [from the guilt of their sins].
Ženy mužům svým poddány buďte jako Pánu.
Nebo muž jest hlava ženy, jako i Kristus jest hlava církve, a onť jest Spasitel těla.
24 Just like all believers submit themselves to [the authority of] Christ, the women must submit themselves completely to the [authority of] their husbands.
A tak jakož církev poddána jest Kristu, tak i ženy mužům svým ať jsou poddány ve všem.
25 Each of you husbands, love your wife as Christ loved all of [us who would become] believers, with the result that he willingly died for our sake,
Muži milujte ženy své, jako i Kristus miloval církev, a vydal sebe samého za ni,
26 in order that he might (set us apart for himself/cause us to belong to him). That is, by [revealing his] message [to us], he wanted to [remove the guilt of our sin, just like people remove dirt from something] by washing it [MET].
Aby ji posvětil, očistiv ji obmytím vody v slovu,
27 [Christ did that] in order that he might cause all of us believers to be a glorious group of people that belong to him, people that do not have any moral flaws/imperfections, but instead might be completely pure [DOU] when he gathers us (to his presence/to himself).
Aby ji sobě postavil slavnou církev, nemající poskvrny, ani vrásky, neb cokoli takového, ale aby byla svatá a bez úhony.
28 In the same way, each man should love his wife as he loves his own body. Men who love their wives, [it is as though] they love themselves.
Takť jsou povinni muži milovati ženy své jako svá vlastní těla. Kdo miluje ženu svou, sebeť samého miluje.
29 This is shown by the fact that no one ever hated his own body. Instead, he feeds his own body and cares for it, just like Christ also cares for all us believers. We have become one group of believers that belongs to him [MET].
Žádný zajisté nikdy těla svého neměl v nenávisti, ale krmí a chová je, jakožto i Pán církev.
Neboť jsme údové těla jeho, z masa jeho a z kostí jeho.
31 [What someone has written in the Scriptures about people who marry is this], [When] a man and [a] woman [marry], they should ([permanently] leave/no longer live with) their fathers and mothers. They should be joined [as husband and] wife, and the two of them shall become [as though they were] one [MET] person.
A protoť opustí člověk otce i matku, a připojí se k manželce své, i budouť dva jedno tělo.
32 It is very difficult to understand the meaning of these things that God has now revealed to me, but [I am telling you that] those words [also] refer to [the relationship between] Christ and all those who belong to him.
Tajemství toto veliké jest, ale já pravím o Kristu a o církvi.
33 However, as for you(pl), each man must love his wife just as he loves himself, and each woman must respect her husband.
Avšak i vy, jeden každý z vás, manželku svou tak jako sám sebe miluj. Žena pak ať se bojí muže svého.
