Galatians 1
1 [I], Paul, [write this letter to you. I remind you that I am] an apostle. That is not because a group of people [appointed me], nor because a human being [sent me to be an apostle]. Instead, Jesus Christ and God [our heavenly] Father, who caused Jesus to become alive again after he died, have [appointed and] sent [me to be an apostle].
Pavel apostelj, ne od ljudî, tudi ne po človeku, nego po Jezusu Kristusu in Bogu očetu, kteri ga je obudil iz mrtvih, )
2 All the fellow believers [who are here] with me [approve of this message that I am writing. I am sending this letter] to the congregations that [are] in Galatia [province].
In vsi bratje, kteri so z menoj, cerkvam Galaških,
3 [I pray that] God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ will kindly [help] you and enable [you to have inner] peace.
Milost vam in mir od Boga očeta in Gospoda našega Jezusa Kristusa,
4 Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] in order that [he might remove the guilt for] our sins. He did that in order that he might enable us to not [do the evil things that people who do not know him] do. [He did this] because God, who is our Father, wanted it. (aiōn g165)
Kteri je dal sebe za grehe naše, da nas reši iz sedanjega hudega veka po volji Boga in očeta našega, (aiōn g165)
Kteremu slava na veke vekov. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 I am very disappointed [IRO] that so soon [after you trusted in Christ] you have turned away from [God]. He chose you in order that [you might have what] Christ freely/kindly gives. I am also disappointed that so soon you are believing a different [message which some say is] “good news.”
Čudim se, da ste se tako hitro odvrnili od tega, kteri vas je poklical v milosti Kristusovej na drugi evangelj,
7 Their message is not a true message. [What is happening is that] certain persons are confusing your [minds]. They are desiring to change the good message (that Christ [revealed/about] Christ) [and are creating another message].
Kteri ni drugi, samo da so nekteri, kteri vas zmedajo in hočejo preobrniti evangelj Kristusov.
8 But even if we [(exc) apostles] or an angel from heaven would tell you a message that is different from the good message that we told you [before], I [appeal to God] that [he] punish such a person [forever].
Ali tudi, ko bi vam mi ali angelj iz nebes oznanjeval evangelj drugač, nego smo vam mi oznanili, preklet bodi.
9 As I told you previously, so now I tell you this once more: Someone is telling you [what he says is] a good message, but it is a message that is different from [the good message] that I gave you. So I [appeal to God] that [he] severely punish that person.
Kakor smo poprej rekli, tudi sedaj zopet pravim: če vam kdo oznanjuje evangelj drugač, nego ste ga prejeli, preklet bodi.
10 [I said that] because [RHQ] I do not desire that people approve me, [contrary to what some have said about me]. It is God whom I desire to approve me. [Specifically, I do not say and do] [RHQ] things just to please people. If it were still people whom I was trying to please, then I would not be one who [willingly and completely] serves Christ.
Jeli sedaj ljudî nagovarjam ali Boga? ali gledam ljudém po godu biti? Kajti ko bi še ljudém po godu bil, ne bil bi Kristusov služabnik.
11 My fellow believers, I want you to know that the message about Christ that I proclaim to people is not one that some person [created/thought up].
Na znanje vam pa dajem, bratje, da evangelj, kterega sem jaz oznanil, ni po človeku;
12 I did not receive this message from a human [messenger], and no [human being] taught it to me. Instead, Jesus Christ revealed it to me.
Tudi ga nisem jaz po človeku prejel, niti ga se naučil, nego po razodetji Jezusa Kristusa.
13 People have told you how I used to behave when [I practiced] the Jewish religion. They told you that I continually did very harmful things to the groups of believers that God [established], and they told you that I tried to get rid of those people.
Kajti slišali ste moje vedenje nekdaj v judovstvu, da sem črez mero preganjal cerkev Božjo in jo zatiral,
14 I practiced the Jewish religion more thoroughly than many [other Jews] who were my age practiced it. I much more enthusiastically tried to get others to obey the traditions that my ancestors [kept].
In sem napredoval v judovstvu bolje od mnogih vrstnikov v rodu svojem in bil sem preobilo vnet za očetovska svoja sporočila.
15 Nevertheless, before I was born, [God] (set me apart/selected me). He chose me [to live eternally], something that I did not deserve.
A kedar se je zvidelo Bogu, kteri me je izbral iz telesa matere moje in poklical po milosti svojej,
16 He wanted me to know that Jesus is (his Son/the man who is also God), so that I would tell others the message about him in regions where non-Jews live. But I did not immediately go to any human beings [SYN] in order to gain [an understanding of that message. I received it directly from Christ!]!
Da razodene sina svojega v meni, da ga z evangeljem oznanim med pogani, precej nisem za svet poprašal mesa in krvi,
17 I did not [immediately] leave Damascus and go to Jerusalem [for that purpose] to those who were apostles before I was. Instead, I went away to Arabia [region, a desert area]. Later I returned once more to Damascus [city].
Tudi nisem šel gor v Jeruzalem k tistim, kteri so bili pred menoj aposteljni, nego odšel sem v Arabijo in zopet sem se povrnil v Damask.
18 Then three years after [God revealed this good message to me], I went up to Jerusalem in order that I might meet Peter. But I stayed with him for [only] 15 days, [which was not long enough for him to teach me thoroughly about Christ].
Po tem črez tri leta sem prišel gor v Jeruzalem, da vidim Petra, in ostal sem pri njem petnajst dnî.
19 I also saw James, the brother of our Lord [Jesus and the leader of the believers there, but] I did not see any other apostle.
Ali drugega izmed aposteljnov nisem videl, razen Jakoba, brata Gospodovega.
20 God knows that what I am writing to you is completely true [LIT]!
A kar vam pišem, lej pričo Boga, da ne lažem.
21 After [I left Jerusalem], I went to [the regions of] Syria and Cilicia.
Po tem sem prišel v kraje Sirske in Cilicijske.
22 [At that time, people in] the Christian congregations that are in Judea [province] still had not met me [SYN] personally.
A bil sem neznan po licu cerkvam Judejskim, ktere so v Kristusu bile;
23 They only heard [others say about me] repeatedly, “[Paul], the one who was formerly doing harmful things to us, is now telling the [same message] which we believe and which formerly he was trying (to destroy/to cause people to stop believing)!”
Samo slišali so, da tisti, kteri nas je nekdaj preganjal, sedaj oznanjuje vero, ktero je nekdaj zatiral,
24 And they praised God because of [what had happened to] me.
In slavili so v meni Boga.
