¹Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,

¹Pavao, po Božjoj volji pozvan za apostola Krista Isusa, i brat Sosten

²to the assembly of God which is at Corinth; those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs and ours:

²Crkvi Božjoj u Korintu - posvećenima u Kristu Isusu, pozvanicima, svetima, sa svima što na bilo kojemu mjestu prizivlju ime Isusa Krista, Gospodina našega, njihova i našega.

³Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

³Milost vam i mir od Boga, Oca našega, i Gospodina Isusa Krista!

⁴I always thank my God concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus;

⁴Zahvaljujem Bogu svojemu svagda za vas zbog milosti Božje koja vam je dana u Kristu Isusu:

⁵that in everything you were enriched in him, in all speech and all knowledge;

⁵u njemu se obogatiste u svemu - u svakoj riječi i svakom spoznanju.

⁶even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

⁶Kako li se svjedočanstvo o Kristu utvrdilo u vama

⁷so that you come behind in no gift; waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;

⁷te ne oskudijevate ni na jednom daru čekajući Objavljenje Gospodina našega Isusa Krista!

⁸who will also confirm you until the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁸On će vas učiniti i postojanima do kraja, besprigovornima u Dan Gospodina našega Isusa Krista.

⁹God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

⁹Vjeran je Bog koji vas pozva u zajedništvo Sina svojega Isusa Krista, Gospodina našega.

¹⁰Now I beg you, brothers, The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

¹⁰Zaklinjem vas, braćo, imenom Gospodina našega Isusa Krista: svi budite iste misli; neka ne bude među vama razdora, nego budite savršeno istog osjećanja i istog mišljenja.

¹¹For it has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those who are from Chloe’s household, that there are contentions among you.

¹¹Jer Klojini mi, braćo moja, o vama rekoše da među vama ima svađa.

¹²Now I mean this, that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” and, “I follow Christ.”

¹²Mislim to što svaki od vas govori: "Ja sam Pavlov", "A ja Apolonov", "A ja Kefin", "A ja Kristov".

¹³Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul?

¹³Zar je Krist razdijeljen? Zar je Pavao raspet za vas? Ili ste u Pavlovo ime kršteni?

¹⁴I thank God that I baptized none of you, except Crispus and Gaius,

¹⁴Hvala Bogu što ne krstih nikoga od vas, osim Krispa i Gaja;

¹⁵so that no one should say that I had baptized you into my own name.

¹⁵da ne bi tko rekao da ste u moje ime kršteni.

¹⁶(I also baptized the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don’t know whether I baptized any other.)

¹⁶A da, krstih i Stefanin dom. Inače ne znam krstih li koga drugoga.

¹⁷For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of Christ wouldn’t be made void.

¹⁷Jer ne posla me Krist krstiti, nego navješćivati evanđelje, i to ne mudrošću besjede, da se ne obeskrijepi križ Kristov.

¹⁸For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are saved it is the power of God.

¹⁸Uistinu, besjeda o križu ludost je onima koji propadaju, a nama spašenicima sila je Božja.

¹⁹For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.” Isaiah 29:14

¹⁹Ta pisano je: Upropastit ću mudrost mudrih, i odbacit ću umnost umnih.

²⁰Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the lawyer of this world? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

²⁰Gdje je mudrac? Gdje je književnik? Gdje je istraživač ovoga svijeta? Zar ne izludi Bog mudrost svijeta?

²¹For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.

²¹Doista, kad svijet u mudrosti Božjoj Boga ne upozna mudrošću, svidjelo se Bogu ludošću propovijedanja spasiti vjernike.

²²For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,

²²Jer i Židovi znake ištu i Grci mudrost traže,

²³but we preach Christ crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks,

²³a mi propovijedamo Krista raspetoga: Židovima sablazan, poganima ludost,

²⁴but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.

²⁴pozvanima pak - i Židovima i Grcima - Krista, Božju snagu i Božju mudrost.

²⁵Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

²⁵Jer ludo Božje mudrije je od ljudi i slabo Božje jače je od ljudi.

²⁶For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble;

²⁶Ta gledajte, braćo, sebe, pozvane: nema mnogo mudrih po tijelu, nema mnogo snažnih, nema mnogo plemenitih.

²⁷but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong;

²⁷Nego lude svijeta izabra Bog da posrami mudre, i slabe svijeta izabra Bog da posrami jake;

²⁸and God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that are not, that he might bring to nothing the things that are:

²⁸i neplemenite svijeta i prezrene izabra Bog, i ono što nije, da uništi ono što jest,

²⁹that no flesh should boast before God.

²⁹da se nijedan smrtnik ne bi hvalio pred Bogom.

³⁰But of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

³⁰Od njega je da vi jeste u Kristu Isusu, koji nama posta mudrost od Boga, i pravednost, i posvećenje, i otkupljenje,

³¹that, according as it is written, “He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.” Jeremiah 9:24

³¹da bude kako je pisano: Tko se hvali, u Gospodu neka se hvali.
