1 Korintusi 15
1 Eszetekbe juttatom továbbá, atyámfiai, az evangyéliomot, melyet hirdettem néktek, melyet be is vettetek, melyben állotok is,
Now, my fellow believers, I want to remind you about the message about Christ that I preached to you. It is the message that you received and that you have continued to trust firmly.
2 A mely által üdvözültök is, ha megtartjátok, a minémű beszéddel hirdettem néktek, hacsak nem hiába lettetek hívőkké.
If you keep on firmly [believing] this message that I preached to you, you will be saved {[God] will save you}. If you do not continue to believe it, your believing [in Christ] was (all for nothing/useless)!
3 Mert azt adtam előtökbe főképen, a mit én is úgy vettem, hogy a Krisztus meghalt a mi bűneinkért az írások szerint;
The most important part of the message that I received [from the Lord Jesus], and that I told you, was this: Christ died to [take away the guilt] of our sins, as the Scriptures [said that he would do].
4 És hogy eltemettetett; és hogy feltámadott a harmadik napon az írások szerint;
His [dead body] was buried {They buried his [body]}. On the third day [after that], [God] caused him to become alive again, as the Scriptures [said would happen].
5 És hogy megjelent Kéfásnak; azután a tizenkettőnek;
After that, [Christ] was seen by {appeared to} Peter. Then he appeared to [eleven of] the [original] twelve [apostles].
6 Azután megjelent több mint ötszáz atyafinak egyszerre, kik közül a legtöbben mind máig élnek, némelyek azonban el is aludtak;
Later he was seen by {appeared to} more than 500 of our fellow believers. Most of those are still living, but some of them have died [EUP].
7 Azután megjelent Jakabnak; azután mind az apostoloknak;
Then he was seen by {appeared [to]} [his younger brother] James, [who became the leader of the congregation in Jerusalem]. Then he appeared to all of the apostles.
8 Legutolszor pedig mindenek között, mint egy idétlennek, nékem is megjelent.
Finally, he was seen by {appeared to} me, but I became an apostle in a way that was very unusual [MET].
9 Mert én vagyok a legkisebb az apostolok között, ki nem vagyok méltó, hogy apostolnak neveztessem, mert háborgattam az Istennek anyaszentegyházát.
The fact is, I [consider that I] am the least important of the apostles. I do not deserve to be an apostle, because I (persecuted God’s groups of believers/caused God’s groups of believers to suffer) [everywhere I went].
10 De Isten kegyelme által vagyok, a mi vagyok; és az ő hozzám való kegyelme nem lőn hiábavaló; sőt többet munkálkodtam, mint azok mindnyájan de nem én, hanem az Istennek velem való kegyelme.
But it is because God acted kindly toward me in ways that I did not deserve that I became what I am now. And his acting kindly toward me produced a great result [LIT], which is that I worked harder [for Christ] than all the other apostles. But it was not that I [was working with my own ability]. Instead, God was helping me in a way I did not deserve.
11 Akár én azért, akár azok, így prédikálunk, és így lettetek ti hívőkké.
So it does not matter whether it was I [who was preaching or whether it was the other apostles who were preaching]. We all preached [the same message], and that message is what you believed.
12 Ha azért Krisztusról hirdettetik, hogy a halottak közül feltámadott, mimódon mondják némelyek ti köztetek, hogy nincsen halottak feltámadása?
So now [let me ask you this]: Since [we] have all preached to you that Christ was raised again {that [God] caused Christ to become alive} after he died, (no one among you should be saying that [God] will not cause [believers] to become alive again after they die!/why do some of you say that [God] will not cause [believers] to become alive again after they die?) [RHQ]
13 Mert ha nincsen halottak feltámadása, akkor Krisztus sem támadott fel.
If [it is true that God] will not cause anyone to become alive again, that situation would mean that Christ was not raised from the dead {[he] did not cause Christ to become alive again}!
14 Ha pedig Krisztus fel nem támadott, akkor hiábavaló a mi prédikálásunk, de hiábavaló a ti hitetek is.
And if Christ was not raised from the dead {if [God] did not cause Christ to become alive again}, then what we preached to you was useless, and your believing [in Christ] is useless.
15 Sőt az Isten hamis bizonyságtevőinek is találtatunk, mivelhogy az Isten felől bizonyságot tettünk, hogy feltámasztotta a Krisztust; a kit nem támasztott fel, ha csakugyan nem támadnak fel a halottak.
[If it is true that] no one will be raised from the dead {[that God] will not cause anyone to become alive again after he dies}, we [(exc)] have been guilty of lying to you about God, because we told you that God caused Christ to become alive again.
16 Mert ha a halottak fel nem támadnak, a Krisztus sem támadott fel.
But if it were really true that no one who has died will be raised {that [God will] not cause anyone who has died to become alive} again, then Christ was not raised {[he] did not cause Christ to become alive} again either!
17 Ha pedig a Krisztus fel nem támadott, hiábavaló a ti hitetek; még bűneitekben vagytok.
If it were true that Christ was not raised {that [God] did not cause Christ to become alive} again after he died, you have believed in Christ for nothing, [because] God will still [punish] you for [MTY] your sins.
18 A kik a Krisztusban elaludtak, azok is elvesztek tehát.
And those people who died [EUP] [while they were trusting] in Christ will go to hell. (questioned)
19 Ha csak ebben az életben reménykedünk a Krisztusban, minden embernél nyomorultabbak vagyunk.
In this life [many of us have suffered much for Christ] because we confidently expect [that he will reward us in heaven]. If we have confidently expected this in vain, people should pity us more than they pity anyone else!
20 Ámde Krisztus feltámadott a halottak közül, zsengéjök lőn azoknak, kik elaludtak.
But [the truth is that] Christ has been raised from the dead {that [God] has caused Christ to live again after he had died}, and (that guarantees/because of that, it is certain) [MET] that he will also cause those [believers] who have died [EUP] to become alive again.
21 Miután ugyanis ember által van a halál, szintén ember által van a halottak feltámadása is.
What one man, [Adam, did affects us all]. We all die. Similarly, what one man—[Christ]—did [affects us(inc) all]: God will cause [all believers] to become alive again.
22 Mert a miképen Ádámban mindnyájan meghalnak, azonképen a Krisztusban is mindnyájan megeleveníttetnek.
Because of what Adam did, all [of us who are descended] from him die. Similarly, because of what [Christ did], all of us who have a close relationship with him will be brought back to life {[God] will make alive all of us who have a close relationship with Christ}.
23 Mindenki pedig a maga rendje szerint. Első zsenge a Krisztus; azután a kik a Krisztuséi, az ő eljövetelekor.
But we must all take our turn. [God raised] Christ first [MET]. And when Christ returns, [God will cause] those who belong to Christ to become alive again.
24 Aztán a vég, mikor átadja az országot az Istennek és Atyának; a mikor eltöröl minden birodalmat és minden hatalmat és erőt.
Then, after Christ has destroyed all [DOU] the evil powers that oppose God, [the world] will end. Then Christ will give to God, his Father, his kingdom to completely rule over it.
25 Mert addig kell néki uralkodnia, mígnem ellenségeit mind lábai alá veti.
You must realize that Christ must rule [here on earth] until he has completely defeated [MTY] all his enemies.
26 Mint utolsó ellenség töröltetik el a halál.
The last thing that [he] will get rid of is death. [But he certainly will get rid of death, which is like] an enemy [to us].
27 Mert mindent az ő lábai alá vetett. Mikor pedig azt mondja, hogy minden alája van vetve, nyilvánvaló, hogy azon kívül, a ki neki mindent alávetett.
[In the Scriptures the Psalmist wrote that] God will cause everything to be under Christ’s [authority] [MTY]. But it is clear that the word ‘everything’ here does not include God, because God is the one who will cause everything to be under Christ’s [authority] [MTY].
28 Mikor pedig minden alája vettetett, akkor maga a Fiú is alávettetik annak, a ki neki mindent alávetett, hogy az Isten legyen minden mindenben.
After everything is put under [the authority of] God’s Son, then Christ will put himself completely under [the authority of] God, the one who gave him that authority. Then God will be completely in control of everything [IDM], everywhere.
29 Különben mit cselekesznek azok, a kik a halottakért keresztelkednek meg, a halottak teljességgel nem támadnak fel? Miért is keresztelkednek meg a halottakért?
[Now think about this: Some among you] are being baptized (OR, are baptizing people) on behalf of those who died [before someone baptized them] (OR, who died [before they became believers]). If, [as some people say, believers] will not be raised [from the dead] {[God] will not cause [believers] to become alive again}, (what is the value in those people doing that?/there is no value in those people doing that!) [RHQ] If [God] will not cause any [believers] to become alive again, it is senseless to be baptized {baptize anyone} on behalf of someone who has died. [RHQ]
30 Mi is miért veszélyeztetjük magunkat minden pillanatban?
Furthermore, [if God will not cause us believers to become alive again], it is [RHQ] very foolish for me and the other apostles to be constantly [putting ourselves] in danger [because we tell people the gospel].
31 Naponként halál révén állok. A veletek való dicsekedésre mondom, mely van nékem a Krisztus Jézusban a mi Urunkban.
My fellow believers, every day I [am in danger of] being killed {people killing me}! That is as true as it is that I am pleased with you because of your close relationship with Christ Jesus our Lord.
32 Ha csak emberi módon viaskodtam Efézusban a fenevadakkal, mi a hasznom abból, ha a halottak fel nem támadnak? Együnk és igyunk, holnap úgyis meghalunk!
[If God will not cause us believers to become alive again after we die], (I will receive no benefit at all [from having opposed those who attacked me so strongly] in Ephesus [city]./what will I gain [from having opposed those who attacked me so strongly] in Ephesus [city]?) [RHQ] They were [fighting me like] wild beasts! If we [believers] will not be raised [from the dead] {If [God] will not cause us [believers] to live again}, we might as well say [as people often say]: “Tomorrow we are going to die, so we might as well enjoy now everything that we can. We might as well feast and get drunk!”
33 Ne tévelyegjetek. Jó erkölcsöt megrontanak gonosz társaságok.
Do not let [yourselves be deceived by those who say that God will not cause believers to live again] {Do not let [people who say that God will not cause believers to live again] deceive you}. If you associate with evil people [who say such things], they will (influence you to do evil things/destroy your good moral way of living).
34 Serkenjetek fel igazán és ne vétkezzetek; mert némelyek nem ismerik Istent; megszégyenítéstekre mondom.
Start thinking correctly again [about these matters], as you should, and [stop your sinful behavior which has resulted from] your wrong thinking. [I say that] because [it seems that] some among you do not know God, and as a result they [are thinking wrongly]. I say that to make you ashamed.
35 De mondhatná valaki: Mi módon támadnak fel a halottak? és minémű testtel jönnek ki?
But some of you are asking, “How will dead people be raised {How will [God] cause dead people to become alive} again? What kind of bodies will they have?”
36 Balgatag! a mit te vetsz, nem elevenedik meg, hanemha megrothadánd.
[Anyone who asks such questions is] foolish. You [know that] a seed that is planted in the ground must completely change its form [MET] before it sprouts.
37 És abban, a mit elvetsz, nem azt a testet veted el, a mely majd kikél, hanem puszta magot, talán búzáét, vagy más egyébét.
A seed, such as a wheat seed, is very different from the plant that sprouts from it.
38 Az Isten pedig testet ád annak, a mint akarta, és pedig mindenféle magnak az ő saját testét.
God gives everything that lives the form that he desires. He gives each seed its own form.
39 Nem minden test azon egy test, hanem más az embereknek teste, más a barmoknak teste, más a halaké, más a madaraké.
[Similarly], people, animals, birds, and fish all have flesh, but each one has a different kind of flesh.
40 És vannak mennyei testek és földi testek; de más a mennyeiek dicsősége, más a földieké.
Also, there are angelic beings in heaven (OR, stars and planets in the sky), and there are people with bodies on the earth. The angelic beings (OR, stars and planets) are beautiful in one way, and people on earth are beautiful in a different way.
41 Más a napnak dicsősége és más a holdnak dicsősége és más a csillagok dicsősége; mert csillag a csillagtól különbözik dicsőségre nézve.
The sun is bright in one way, and the moon is bright in a different way, and the stars are bright in a different way. And even the various stars are different from each other in how bright they are.
42 Épenígy a halottak feltámadása is. Elvettetik romlandóságban, feltámasztatik romolhatatlanságban;
And it is the same way [with our bodies. The bodies that we will have when God causes us] to live again after we die [will not be the same as the bodies that we have now] [MET]. [The bodies that we have now] will die and decay. [The new bodies that we will have] will never die.
43 Elvettetik gyalázatosságban, feltámasztatik dicsőségben; elvettetik erőtelenségben, feltámasztatik erőben.
We despise [the bodies that we have now], before we die. But our [new bodies] will be glorious. The [bodies that we have before we die] are weak. But our new bodies will be strong.
44 Elvettetik érzéki test, feltámasztatik lelki test. Van érzéki test, és van lelki test is.
The bodies that we have before we die are natural bodies. But [our new bodies] will be ones that [God’s] Spirit ([controls/gives us]). Just like there are natural bodies, there are bodies that [God’s] Spirit [completely] controls (OR, makes alive).
45 Így is van megírva: Lőn az első ember, Ádám, élő lélekké; az utolsó Ádám megelevenítő szellemmé.
[In the Scriptures] it is written {we read} that [when] the first man, Adam, [was created], he became a living human being. [Christ later also became a human being]. But [he is different from Adam, because he] became a person who gives us [spiritual] life.
46 De nem a lelki az első, hanem az érzéki, azután a lelki.
But our bodies that God’s Spirit (will completely control/will give us) are not the first bodies that we have. We have our natural bodies first.
47 Az első ember földből való, földi; a második ember, az Úr, mennyből való.
The first man, [Adam], was created {[God] created the first man, Adam} from the dust of the earth. But [Christ], the one who came later, came from heaven.
48 A milyen ama földi, olyanok a földiek is; és a milyen ama mennyei, olyanok a mennyeiek is.
Everyone on earth [has a body] like the first man on the earth had. And in heaven, [everyone will have a body like Christ], the man who came from heaven, has.
49 És a miképen hordtuk a földinek ábrázatját, hordani fogjuk a mennyeinek ábrázatját is.
And just like [God] gave us bodies like the first man on earth had, so we [believers will have bodies] like [Christ] has, who is now in heaven.
50 Azt pedig állítom atyámfiai, hogy test és vér nem örökölheti Isten országát, sem a romlandóság nem örökli a romolhatatlanságot.
My fellow believers, I want you to know that we [(inc)] [SYN] cannot go [to heaven, where] God rules [over everything], with our physical bodies, because our bodies [cannot last forever]. They will die and decay.
51 Ímé titkot mondok néktek. Mindnyájan ugyan nem aluszunk el, de mindnyájan elváltozunk.
But I will tell you something that [God] has not revealed [before]: [Some of] us [believers] will not die [EUP]. However, all of us will be changed {[God] will change all of us}.
52 Nagy hirtelen, egy szempillantásban, az utolsó trombitaszóra; mert trombita fog szólni, és a halottak feltámadnak romolhatatlanságban, és mi elváltozunk.
[It will happen] suddenly, as [fast as someone can] blink his eye [MET], when [we hear the sound of God’s] trumpet for the last time. When we hear that trumpet, all [the believers] who have died will come back to life and will have bodies that are changed {that [God] has changed}, bodies that will never decay.
53 Mert szükség, hogy ez a romlandó test romolhatatlanságot öltsön magára, és e halandó test halhatatlanságot öltsön magára.
And the [bodies of us who are alive at that time] will [also] be changed {And [God] will [also] change the [bodies of us who are alive at that time]}. These bodies of ours that die and decay must be transformed into [new bodies that] will never die; [it will be like someone] [MET] getting rid of [his old clothes] and putting on [new ones].
54 Mikor pedig ez a romlandó test romolhatatlanságba öltözik, és e halandó halhatatlanságba öltözik, akkor beteljesül amaz ige, mely meg vagyon írva: Elnyeletett a halál diadalra.
When that happens, what is written {what ([a prophet/Isaiah]) wrote} [in the Scriptures] will come true/happen: [God] will completely get rid of [MET] death. Our dying will no longer have any power to defeat us;
Death [APO] will not win a victory over us. Death will not be able to hurt us. (Hadēs g86)
56 A halál fullánkja pedig a bűn; a bűn ereje pedig a törvény.
It is because we sin [MET] [that we die, and it is because we] have God’s laws that we [know that we] have sinned.
57 De hála az Istennek, a ki a diadalmat adja nékünk a mi Urunk Jézus Krisztus által.
But because of what our Lord Jesus Christ [has done], he enables us to be free [from having to obey God’s laws to be saved and to be free of being afraid to die]. We should thank God for that!
58 Azért szerelmes atyámfiai erősen álljatok, mozdíthatatlanul, buzgólkodván az Úrnak dolgában mindenkor, tudván, hogy a ti munkátok nem hiábavaló az Úrban.
So, my fellow believers whom I love, continue to hold strongly to [the things that you believe]. Do not let anything cause you to doubt them. Always be doing enthusiastically the work that the Lord [gives you]. And remember that the work that you do for the Lord is never (in vain/useless), [as it would be if God will not cause us to live again after we die].
