2 Korinčanom 11

1 O da bi me trpeli malo v mojej nespameti, pa saj me tudi trpite!

WOULD to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.

2 Kajti vnet sem za vas z Božjo vnetostjo, ker sem vas zagovoril enemu možu, da devico čisto privedem Kristusu;

For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

3 Ali se bojim, da se ne bi kako, kakor je kača Evo ukanila z zvijačo svojo, tako tudi pokvarile misli vaše od priprostosti, ktera je v Kristusu.

But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

4 Kajti ko bi ta, kteri prihaja, drugega Jezusa oznanjeval, kterega nismo oznanili, ali bi drugega duha prejemali, kterega niste prejeli, lepo bi trpeli.

For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

5 Ker mislim, da v ničemer nisem manjši od prevelikih aposteljnov.

For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.

6 Kajti če tudi sem neuk v govoru, vendar nisem v znanji: ali v vsem smo znani pri vseh med vami.

But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.

7 Jeli sem greh storil sam sebe ponižujoč, da se vi povišate, da sem vam zastonj Božji evangelj oznanil?

Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?

8 Druge cerkve sem slekel vzemši plačo na službo vam, in ko sem prišel k vam in bil ubog, nisem bil nikomur nadležen;

I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.

9 Kajti moje uboštvo so nadopolnili bratje, kteri so prišli od Macedonije, in v vsem brez teže vam sem se zdržal in bom se držal.

And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself.

10 Je resnica Kristusova v meni, da mi se ta hvala ne bo zadelala v krajih Ahajskih.

As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.

11 Za kaj? ker vas ne ljubim? Bog ve.

Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.

12 Kar pa delam, to bom tudi delal, da odsečem priložnost tistim, kteri priložnost hočejo, da bi se, v čemer se hvalijo, našli taki, kakor tudi mi.

But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.

13 Kajti taki so krivi aposteljni, ukanljivi delalci, premenjajoči se v aposteljne Kristusove,

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

14 In ni čuda, kajti sam satan se premenja v angelje svetlobe.

And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

15 Ni torej nič velikega, če se tudi služabniki njegovi premenjajo v služabnike pravice, kterih konec bo poleg njih del.

Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

16 Zopet pravim: Nikdor naj ne misli, da sem nespameten; če pa ne, pa me sprejemite kakor nespametnega, da se nemalo tudi jaz pohvalim.

I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.

17 Kar govorim, ne govorim po Gospodu, nego kakor v nespameti, v tej stanovitnosti hvale.

That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

18 Ko se mnogi hvalijo po mesu, hvalil se bom tudi jaz.

Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.

19 Kajti radi trpite nespametne, ko ste sami pametni;

For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.

20 Ker trpite, če vas kdo usužnjuje, če kdo pojeda, če kdo jemlje, če se kdo povzdiguje, če vas kdo v lice bije.

For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.

21 Po nečasti pravim, ker kakor da smo mi oslabeli. V čemer je pa kdo drzen, (po nespameti govorim), drzen sem tudi jaz.

I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly, ) I am bold also.

22 Hebrejci so? tudi jaz sem; Izraelci so? tudi jaz sem; seme Abrahamovo so? tudi jaz sem;

Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.

23 Služabniki Kristusovi so? (ne govorim po pameti), še bolje sem jaz: v trudih obilneje, v udarcih neizmerneje, v ječah obilneje, v smrti mnogi krat.

Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.

24 Od Judov sem jih dobil pet krat štirideset brez ene,

Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.

25 Tri krat sem bil izšiban, en krat kamenovan, trikrat se je z menoj ladja razbila, noč in dan sem v globočini prebil.

Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;

26 Potoval sem mnogi krat, bil sem v nevarnostih od vod, v nevarnostih od razbojnikov, v nevarnostih od rodovine, v nevarnostih od poganov, v nevarnostih v mestu, v nevarnostih v puščavi, v nevarnostih na morji, v nevarnostih med krivimi brati;

In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;

27 V trudu in težavi, dosti krat v nespavanji, v lakoti in žeji, velikokrat v postu, v mrazu in goloti,

In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

28 Brez tega, kar je zvun tega: prihajanje ljudi k meni vsak dan, skrb za vse cerkve.

Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.

29 Kdo oslabi, da bi tudi jaz ne oslabel? Kdo se pohujšuje, da bi tudi mene ne skelelo?

Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?

30 Če se je treba hvaliti, s svojo slabostjo se bom hvalil.

If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.

31 Bog in oče Gospoda našega Jezusa Kristusa, kteri je blagoslovljen na veke, ve, da ne lažem. (aiōn g165)

The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not. (aiōn g165)

32 V Damasku je dal namestnik kralja Areta stražiti Damaščansko mesto ter me je hotel vjeti,

In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me:

33 In skozi okno v košari so me po zidu spustili in izbegnil sem iz njegovih rok.

And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped his hands.
