Rimljanom 1
1 Pavel, služabnik Jezusa Kristusa, poklican, da bi bil apostol, odbran za evangelij Boga,
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, an Apostle by the selection of God, given authority as a preacher of the good news,
2 (ki ga je vnaprej obljubil po svojih prerokih v svetih pismih),
Of which God had given word before by his prophets in the holy Writings,
3 glede svojega Sina Jezusa Kristusa, našega Gospoda, ki je glede na meso zrasel iz Davidovega potomca;
About his Son who, in the flesh, came from the family of David,
4 in z vstajenjem od mrtvih je, glede na duha svetosti, razglasil, da je Božji Sin z močjo;
But was marked out as Son of God in power by the Holy Spirit through the coming to life again of the dead; Jesus Christ our Lord,
5 po katerem smo zaradi njegovega imena prejeli milost in apostolstvo, za poslušnost veri med vsemi narodi;
Through whom grace has been given to us, sending us out to make disciples to the faith among all nations, for his name:
6 med katere ste po Jezusu Kristusu poklicani tudi vi.
Among whom you in the same way have been marked out to be disciples of Jesus Christ:
7 Vsem, ki ste v Rimu, Božji ljubljenci, poklicani, da ste sveti: ›Milost vam in mir od Boga, našega Očeta in Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.‹
To all those who are in Rome, loved by God, marked out as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 Najprej se po Jezusu Kristusu zahvaljujem svojemu Bogu za vas vse, da se o vaši veri govori po vsem celotnem svetu.
First of all, I give praise to my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because news of your faith has gone into all the world.
9 Kajti Bog je moja priča, ki mu služim s svojim duhom v evangeliju njegovega Sina, da vas brez prenehanja vedno omenjam v svojih molitvah,
For God is my witness, whose servant I am in spirit in the good news of his Son, that you are at all times in my memory and in my prayers,
10 ker prosim, če bi na kakršenkoli način torej končno lahko imel uspešno potovanje, da po Božji volji pridem k vam.
And that I am ever making prayers that God will give me a good journey to you.
11 Kajti hrepenim, da vas vidim, da bi vam lahko posredoval kak duhoven dar, z namenom, da boste lahko utrjeni;
For I have a strong desire to see you, and to give you some grace of the spirit, so that you may be made strong;
12 to je, da bom lahko skupaj z vami potolažen po vzajemni veri, tako vaši kakor moji.
That is to say, that all of us may be comforted together by the faith which is in you and in me.
13 Torej, nočem, da bi bili nepoučeni, bratje, da sem se pogosto namenil priti k vam (toda doslej sem bil zadržan), da bi lahko imel, kakor med drugimi pogani, nekaj sadu tudi med vami.
You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you (but till now I was kept from it), so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.
14 Dolžnik sem, tako Grkom kakor barbarom, tako modrim, kakor ne modrim.
I have a debt to Greeks and to the nations outside; to the wise and to those who have no learning.
15 Torej, kar se mene tiče, sem pripravljen evangelij oznaniti tudi vam, ki ste v Rimu.
For which reason I have the desire, as far as I am able, to give the knowledge of the good news to you who are in Rome.
16 Kajti ne sramujem se Kristusovega evangelija, kajti ta je Božja moč za rešitev duš vsakemu, ki veruje; najprej Judu in tudi Grku.
For I have no feeling of shame about the good news, because it is the power of God giving salvation to everyone who has faith, to the Jew first, and then to the Greek.
17 Kajti v njem se razodeva Božja pravičnost, iz vere v vero, kakor je pisano: ›Pravični bo živel iz vere.‹
For in it there is the revelation of the righteousness of God from faith to faith: as it is said in the holy Writings, The man who does righteousness will be living by his faith.
18 Kajti Božji bes je razodet iz nebes zoper vso brezbožnost in nepravičnost ljudi, ki resnico zadržujejo v nepravičnosti;
For there is a revelation of the wrath of God from heaven against all the wrongdoing and evil thoughts of men who keep down what is true by wrongdoing;
19 zato ker je to, kar je lahko spoznano od Boga, očitno v njih; kajti Bog jim je to pokazal.
Because the knowledge of God may be seen in them, God having made it clear to them.
20 Kajti od stvarjenja sveta so nevidne stvari o njem jasno vidne, ker so razumljene po stvareh, ki so narejene; celó njegova večna moč in Božanstvo, tako da so brez opravičila. (aïdios g126)
For from the first making of the world, those things of God which the eye is unable to see, that is, his eternal power and existence, are fully made clear, he having given the knowledge of them through the things which he has made, so that men have no reason for wrongdoing: (aïdios g126)
21 Zato ker ko so spoznali Boga, ga niso slavili kakor Boga niti niso bili hvaležni, temveč so v svojih zamislih postali prazni in njihovo nespametno srce je otemnelo.
Because, having the knowledge of God, they did not give glory to God as God, and did not give praise, but their minds were full of foolish things, and their hearts, being without sense, were made dark.
22 Ker so o sebi izpovedovali, da so modri, so postali bedaki
Seeming to be wise, they were in fact foolish,
23 in slavo netrohljivega Boga spremenili v podobo, podobno trohljivemu človeku in pticam in štirinožnim živalim in plazečim stvarem.
And by them the glory of the eternal God was changed and made into the image of man who is not eternal, and of birds and beasts and things which go on the earth.
24 Zato jih je tudi Bog, zaradi poželenj njihovih lastnih src, prepustil nečistosti, da med seboj onečaščajo svoja lastna telesa.
For this reason God gave them up to the evil desires of their hearts, working shame in their bodies with one another:
25 Ki so Božjo resnico zamenjali v laž in so bolj oboževali in služili stvarstvu kakor Stvarniku, ki je blagoslovljen na veke. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Because by them the true word of God was changed into that which is false, and they gave worship and honour to the thing which is made, and not to him who made it, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it. (aiōn g165)
26 Zaradi tega razloga jih je Bog prepustil ogabnim strastem; kajti celó njihove ženske so spremenile naravno uporabo v to, kar je protinaravno.
For this reason God gave them up to evil passions, and their women were changing the natural use into one which is unnatural:
27 In prav tako so tudi moški, ki so opustili naravno uporabo ženske, v svojem poželenju goreli eden k drugemu; moški so z moškimi počenjali to, kar je nespodobno in na sebi prejemali to povračilo svoje zablode, ki je bilo primerno.
And in the same way the men gave up the natural use of the woman and were burning in their desire for one another, men doing shame with men, and getting in their bodies the right reward of their evil-doing.
28 In celó kot v svojem spoznanju niso želeli obdržati Boga, jih je Bog izročil pokvarjenemu umu, da počenjajo te stvari, ki niso primerne.
And because they had not the mind to keep God in their knowledge, God gave them up to an evil mind, to do those things which are not right;
29 Izpolnjeni so z vso nepravičnostjo, prešuštvom, zlobnostjo, pohlepnostjo, zlonamernostjo; polni zavisti, umora, razpravljanja, prevar, pogubnosti; opravljivci,
Being full of all wrongdoing, evil, desire for the goods of others, hate, envy, putting to death, fighting, deceit, cruel ways, evil talk, and false statements about others;
30 obrekovalci, sovražniki Boga, kruti, ponosni, bahači, izmišljevalci hudobnih stvari, neposlušni staršem,
Hated by God, full of pride, without respect, full of loud talk, given to evil inventions, not honouring father or mother,
31 brez razumevanja, lomilci zavez, brez naravne naklonjenosti, nespravljivi, neusmiljeni.
Without knowledge, not true to their undertakings, unkind, having no mercy:
32 Ki poznajo Božje sodbe, da so tisti, ki zagrešijo takšne stvari, vredni smrti, ne samo, da to počenjajo, temveč imajo zadovoljstvo v tistih, ki jih počno.
Who, though they have knowledge of the law of God, that the fate of those who do these things is death, not only go on doing these things themselves, but give approval to those who do them.
