1 Corinthians, 15

1. And so I make known to you, brothers, the Gospel that I preached to you, which you also received, and on which you stand.

1. Dozivljem vam, braæo, u pamet evanðelje koje vam navijestih, koje primiste, u kome stojite,

2. By the Gospel, too, you are being saved, if you hold to the understanding that I preached to you, lest you believe in vain.

2. po kojem se spasavate, ako držite što sam vam navijestio; osim ako uzalud povjerovaste.

3. For I handed on to you, first of all, what I also received: that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures;

3. Doista, predadoh vam ponajprije što i primih: Krist umrije za grijehe naše po Pismima;

4. and that he was buried; and that he rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures;

4. bi pokopan i uskrišen treæi dan po Pismima;

5. and that he was seen by Cephas, and after that by the eleven.

5. ukaza se Kefi, zatim dvanaestorici.

6. Next he was seen by more than five hundred brothers at one time, many of whom remain, even to the present time, although some have fallen asleep.

6. Potom se ukaza braæi, kojih bijaše više od pet stotina zajedno; veæina ih još i sada živi, a neki usnuše.

7. Next, he was seen by James, then by all the Apostles.

7. Zatim se ukaza Jakovu, onda svim apostolima.

8. And last of all, he was seen also by me, as if I were someone born at the wrong time.

8. Najposlije, kao nedonošèetu, ukaza se i meni.

9. For I am the least of the Apostles. I am not worthy to be called an Apostle, because I persecuted the Church of God.

9. Da, ja sam najmanji meðu apostolima i nisam dostojan zvati se apostolom jer sam progonio Crkvu Božju.

10. But, by the grace of God, I am what I am. And his grace in me has not been empty, since I have labored more abundantly than all of them. Yet it is not I, but the grace of God within me.

10. Ali milošæu Božjom jesam što jesam i njegova milost prema meni ne bijaše zaludna; štoviše, trudio sam se više nego svi oni - ali ne ja, nego milost Božja sa mnom.

11. For whether it is I or they: so we preach, and so you have believed.

11. Ili dakle ja ili oni: tako propovijedamo, tako vjerujete.

12. Now if Christ is preached, that he rose again from the dead, how is it that some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

12. No ako se propovijeda da je Krist od mrtvih uskrsnuo, kako neki meðu vama govore da nema uskrsnuæa mrtvih?

13. For if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not risen.

13. Ako nema uskrsnuæa mrtvih, ni Krist nije uskrsnuo.

14. And if Christ has not risen, then our preaching is useless, and your faith is also useless.

14. Ako pak Krist nije uskrsnuo, uzalud je doista propovijedanje naše, uzalud i vjera vaša.

15. Then, too, we would be found to be false witnesses of God, because we would have given testimony against God, saying that he had raised up Christ, when he had not raised him up, if, indeed, the dead do not rise again.

15. Zatekli bismo se i kao lažni svjedoci Božji što posvjedoèismo protiv Boga: da je uskrisio Krista, kojega nije uskrisio, ako doista mrtvi ne uskršavaju.

16. For if the dead do not rise again, then neither has Christ risen again.

16. Jer ako mrtvi ne uskršavaju, ni Krist nije uskrsnuo.

17. But if Christ has not risen, then your faith is vain; for you would still be in your sins.

17. A ako Krist nije uskrsnuo, uzaludna je vjera vaša, još ste u grijesima.

18. Then, too, those who have fallen asleep in Christ would have perished.

18. Onda i oni koji usnuše u Kristu, propadoše.

19. If we have hope in Christ for this life only, then we are more miserable than all men.

19. Ako se samo u ovom životu u Krista ufamo, najbjedniji smo od svih ljudi.

20. But now Christ has risen again from the dead, as the first-fruits of those who sleep.

20. Ali sada: Krist uskrsnu od mrtvih, prvina usnulih!

21. For certainly, death came through a man. And so, the resurrection of the dead came through a man

21. Doista po èovjeku smrt, po Èovjeku i uskrsnuæe od mrtvih!

22. And just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be brought to life,

22. Jer kao što u Adamu svi umiru, tako æe i u Kristu svi biti oživljeni.

23. but each one in his proper order: Christ, as the first-fruits, and next, those who are of Christ, who have believed in his advent.

23. Ali svatko u svom redu: prvina Krist, a zatim koji su Kristovi, o njegovu Dolasku;

24. Afterwards is the end, when he will have handed over the kingdom to God the Father, when he will have emptied all principality, and authority, and power.

24. potom - svršetak, kad preda kraljevstvo Bogu i Ocu, pošto obeskrijepi svako Vrhovništvo, svaku Vlast i Silu.

25. For it is necessary for him to reign, until he has set all his enemies under his feet.

25. Doista, on treba da kraljuje dok ne podloži sve neprijatelje pod noge svoje.

26. Lastly, the enemy called death shall be destroyed. For he has subjected all things under his feet. And although he says,

26. Kao posljednji neprijatelj bit æe obeskrijepljena Smrt

27. “All things have been subjected to him,” without doubt he does not include the One who has subjected all things to him.

27. jer sve podloži nogama njegovim. A kad veli: Sve je podloženo, jasno - sve osim Onoga koji mu je sve podložio.

28. And when all things will have been subjected to him, then even the Son himself will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to him, so that God may be all in all.

28. I kad mu sve bude podloženo, tada æe se i on sam, Sin, podložiti Onomu koji je njemu sve podložio da Bog bude sve u svemu.

29. Otherwise, what will those who are being baptized for the dead do, if the dead do not rise again at all? Why then are they being baptized for them?

29. Što onda èine oni koji se krste za mrtve? Ako mrtvi uopæe ne uskršavaju, što se krste za njih?

30. Why also do we endure trials every hour?

30. Što se onda i mi svaki èas izlažemo pogiblima?

31. Daily I die, by means of your boasting, brothers: you whom I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.

31. Dan za danom umirem, tako mi slave vaše, braæo, koju imam u Kristu Isusu, Gospodinu našem!

32. If, according to man, I fought with the beasts at Ephesus, how would that benefit me, if the dead do not rise again? “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die.”

32. Ako sam se po ljudsku borio sa zvijerima u Efezu, kakva mi korist? Ako mrtvi ne uskršavaju, jedimo i pijmo jer sutra nam je umrijeti.

33. Do not be led astray. Evil communication corrupts good morals.

33. Ne varajte se: "Zli razgovori kvare dobre obièaje."

34. Be vigilant, you just ones, and do not be willing to sin. For certain persons have an ignorance of God. I say this to you with respect.

34. Otrijeznite se kako valja i ne griješite jer neki, na sramotu vam kažem, ne znaju za Boga.

35. But someone may say, “How do the dead rise again?” or, “What type of body do they return with?”

35. Ali reæi æe netko: Kako uskršavaju mrtvi? I s kakvim li æe tijelom doæi?

36. How foolish! What you sow cannot be brought back to life, unless it first dies.

36. Bezumnièe! Što siješ, ne oživljuje ako ne umre.

37. And what you sow is not the body that will be in the future, but a bare grain, such as of wheat, or of some other grain.

37. I što siješ, ne siješ tijelo buduæe, veæ golo zrno, pšenice - recimo - ili èega drugoga.

38. For God gives it a body according to his will, and according to each seed’s proper body.

38. A Bog mu daje tijelo kakvo hoæe, i to svakom sjemenu svoje tijelo.

39. Not all flesh is the same flesh. But one is indeed of men, another truly is of beasts, another is of birds, and another is of fish.

39. Nije svako tijelo isto tijelo; drugo je tijelo èovjeèje, drugo tijelo stoke, drugo tijelo ptièje, a drugo riblje.

40. Also, there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But while the one, certainly, has the glory of heaven, the other has the glory of earth.

40. Ima tjelesa nebeskih i tjelesa zemaljskih, ali drugi je sjaj nebeskih, a drugi zemaljskih.

41. One has the brightness of the sun, another the brightness of the moon, and another the brightness of the stars. For even star differs from star in brightness.

41. Drugi je sjaj sunca, drugi sjaj mjeseca i drugi sjaj zvijezda; jer zvijezda se od zvijezde razlikuje u sjaju.

42. So it is also with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown in corruption shall rise to incorruption.

42. Tako i uskrsnuæe mrtvih: sije se u raspadljivosti, uskršava u neraspadljivosti;

43. What is sown in dishonor shall rise to glory. What is sown in weakness shall rise to power.

43. sije se u sramoti, uskršava u slavi; sije se u slabosti, uskršava u snazi;

44. What is sown with an animal body shall rise with a spiritual body. If there is an animal body, there is also a spiritual one.

44. sije se tijelo naravno, uskršava tijelo duhovno. Ako ima tijelo naravno, ima i duhovno.

45. Just as it was written that the first man, Adam, was made with a living soul, so shall the last Adam be made with a spirit brought back to life.

45. Tako je i pisano: Prvi èovjek, Adam, postade živa duša, posljednji Adam - duh životvorni.

46. So what is, at first, not spiritual, but animal, next becomes spiritual.

46. Ali ne bi najprije duhovno, nego naravno pa onda duhovno.

47. The first man, being earthly, was of the earth; the second man, being heavenly, will be of heaven.

47. Prvi je èovjek od zemlje, zemljan; drugi èovjek - s neba.

48. Such things as are like the earth are earthly; and such things as are like the heavens are heavenly.

48. Kakav je zemljani takvi su i zemljani, a kakav je nebeski takvi su i nebeski.

49. And so, just as we have carried the image of what is earthly, let us also carry the image of what is heavenly.

49. I kao što smo nosili sliku zemljanoga, nosit æemo i sliku nebeskoga.

50. Now I say this, brothers, because flesh and blood is not able to possess the kingdom of God; neither will what is corrupt possess what is incorrupt.

50. A ovo, braæo, tvrdim: tijelo i krv ne mogu baštiniti kraljevstva Božjega i raspadljivost ne baštini neraspadljivosti.

51. Behold, I tell you a mystery. Certainly, we shall all rise again, but we shall not all be transformed:

51. Evo otajstvo vam kazujem: svi doduše neæemo usnuti, ali svi æemo se izmijeniti.

52. in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will rise up, incorruptible. And we shall be transformed.

52. Odjednom, u tren oka, na posljednju trublju - jer zatrubit æe - i mrtvi æe uskrsnuti neraspadljivi i mi æemo se izmijeniti.

53. Thus, it is necessary for this corruptibility to be clothed with incorruptibility, and for this mortality to be clothed with immortality.

53. Jer ovo raspadljivo treba da se obuèe u neraspadljivost i ovo smrtno da se obuèe u besmrtnost.

54. And when this mortality has been clothed with immortality, then the word that was written shall occur: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”

54. A kad se ovo raspadljivo obuèe u neraspadljivost i ovo smrtno obuèe u besmrtnost, tada æe se obistiniti rijeè napisana: Pobjeda iskapi smrt.

55. “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?”

55. Gdje je, smrti, pobjeda tvoja? Gdje je, smrti, žalac tvoj?

56. Now the sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.

56. Žalac je smrti grijeh, snaga je grijeha Zakon.

57. But thanks be to God, who has given us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

57. A hvala Bogu koji nam daje pobjedu po Gospodinu našem Isusu Kristu!

58. And so, my beloved brothers, be steadfast and unmovable, abounding always in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not useless in the Lord.

58. Tako, braæo moja ljubljena, budite postojani, nepokolebljivi, i obilujte svagda u djelu Gospodnjem znajuæi da trud vaš nije neplodan u Gospodinu.
