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

¹Pavel, povolaný apoštol Ježiša Krista skrze vôľu Božiu, a brat Sostenes

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:

²cirkvi Božej, ktorá je v Korinte, posväteným v Kristu Ježišovi, povolaným svätým, so všetkými, ktorí vzývajú meno našeho Pána Ježiša Krista na každom mieste, ich aj našom:

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

³milosť vám a pokoj od Boha, nášho Otca, a od Pána Ježiša Krista.

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

⁴Ďakujem vždycky svojmu Bohu vzhľadom na vás pre milosť Božiu, ktorá vám je daná v Kristu Ježišovi,

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

⁵že ste v ňom obohatení všetkým, každým slovom i každou známosťou,

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

⁶tak ako je svedoctvo Kristovo upevnené medzi vami,

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

⁷takže nemáte nedostatku v niktorom dare milosti očakávajúc zjavenie nášho Pána Ježiša Krista,

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

⁸ktorý vás aj upevní a zachová až do konca, bezúhonných v deň našeho Pána Ježiša Krista.

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

⁹Verný je Bôh, skrze ktorého ste povolaní v obecenstvo jeho Syna Ježiša Krista, našeho Pána.

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.

¹⁰Ale vás prosím, bratia, menom nášho Pána Ježiša Krista, žeby ste všetci hovorili jedno a to isté, a že by nebolo medzi vami roztržiek, ale aby ste boli dokonalí v jednej a v tej istej mysli a v jednej a v tej istej mienke.

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.

¹¹Lebo mi je oznámené o vás, moji bratia, od domácich Chloy, že sú medzi vami zvady.

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

¹²A hovorím toto, že každý z vás hovorí: Ja som Pavlov, ja Apollov, ja Kéfašov a ja Kristov.

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

¹³Či je Kristus rozdelený? Či azda bol Pavel ukrižovaný za vás? Alebo či ste pokrstení v meno Pavlovo?

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

¹⁴Ďakujem Bohu, že som nikoho z vás nekrstil okrem Krispa a Gája,

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

¹⁵aby niekto nepovedal, že som krstil vo svoje meno.

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

¹⁶No, krstil som i dom Štefanov; viacej neviem, či som niekoho iného krstil.

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.

¹⁷Lebo ma Kristus neposlal krstiť, ale kázať evanjelium, a to nie v múdrosti slova, aby nebol vyprázdnený kríž 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.

¹⁸Lebo slovo kríža je tým, ktorí hynú, bláznovstvom; ale nám, ktorí dosahujeme spasenie, je mocou Božou.

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

¹⁹Lebo je napísané: Zahladím múdrosť múdrych a rozum rozumných zavrhnem.

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?

²⁰Kde je múdry? Kde učený v zákone? Kde dišputant tohoto sveta? Či Bôh neobrátil múdrosti tohoto sveta na bláznovstvo?

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.

²¹Lebo keď v múdrosti Božej svet skrze múdrosť nepoznal Boha, zaľúbilo sa Bohu skrze bláznovstvo kázne spasiť veriacich.

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

²²Keďže i Židia žiadajú znamenia, i Gréci hľadajú múdrosť,

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

²³my kážeme ukrižovaného Krista, Židom pohoršenie a Grékom bláznovstvo;

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

²⁴ale tým istým, povolaným, Židom i Grékom, Krista Božiu moc a Božiu múdrosť.

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

²⁵Lebo bláznivé Božie je múdrejšie ako ľudia a slabé Božie je silnejšie ako ľudia.

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

²⁶Lebo veď vidíte svoje povolanie, bratia, že nie mnoho múdrych podľa tela, nie mnoho mocných, nie mnoho urodzených je medzi vami zachránených.

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;

²⁷Ale bláznivé u sveta si vyvolil Bôh, aby zahanbil múdrych, a slabé u sveta si vyvolil Bôh, aby zahanbil to, čo je silné,

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:

²⁸a neurodzené u sveta a opovrhnuté si vyvolil Bôh, a to, čo nie je, aby zmaril to, čo je niečim,

²⁹that no flesh should boast before God.

²⁹aby sa pred Bohom nechválilo niktoré telo.

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

³⁰A vy ste z neho v Kristu Ježišovi, ktorý sa nám stal múdrosťou od Boha i spravedlivosťou i posvätením i vykúpením,

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

³¹aby bolo, jako je napísané: Ten, kto sa chváli, nech sa chváli Pánom.
