Capítulo 9
1
Istinu govorim u Kristu, ne lažem; susvjedok mi je savjest moja u Duhu Svetom:
2
silna mi je tuga i neprekidna bol u srcu.
3
Da, htio bih ja sam proklet biti, odvojen od Krista, za braću svoju, sunarodnjake svoje po tijelu.
4
Oni su Izraelci, njihovo je posinstvo, i Slava, i Savezi, i zakonodavstvo, i bogoštovlje, i obećanja;
5
njihovi su i oci, od njih je, po tijelu, i Krist, koji je iznad svega, Bog blagoslovljen u vjekove. Amen.
6
Ali ne kao da se izjalovila riječ Božja. Jer nisu Izrael svi koji potječu od Izraela;
7
i nisu svi djeca Abrahamova zato što su njegovo potomstvo, nego po Izaku će ti se nazivati potomstvo;
8
to jest: djeca tijela nisu i djeca Božja, nego - djeca obećanja računaju se u potomstvo.
9
Evo doista riječi obećanja: U ovo ću doba doći i Sara će imati sina.
10
Ali ne samo to! I Rebeka je s jednim, s Izakom, ocem našim, zanijela.
11
Pa kad još blizanci ne bijahu rođeni niti učiniše što dobro ili zlo - da bi trajnom ostala odluka Božja o izabranju:
12
ne po djelima, nego po onome tko poziva - rečeno joj je: Stariji će služiti mlađemu,
13
kako je pisano: Jakova sam zavolio, a Ezav mi omrznu.
14
Što ćemo dakle reći? Možda da u Boga ima nepravde? Nipošto!
15
Ta Mojsiju veli: Smilovat ću se komu hoću da se smilujem; sažalit ću se nad kim hoću da se sažalim.
16
Nije dakle do onoga koji hoće ni do onoga koji trči, nego do Boga koji se smiluje.
17
Jer Pismo veli faraonu: Zato te upravo podigoh da na tebi pokažem svoju moć i da se razglasi ime moje po svoj zemlji.
18
Tako dakle: smiluje se komu hoće, a otvrdnjuje koga hoće.
19
Da, reći ćeš mi: Što se onda još tuži? Ta tko se to volji njegovoj odupro?
20
Čovječe, tko si ti zapravo da se pravdaš s Bogom? Zar da djelo rekne tvorcu: “Što si me ovakvim načinio?”
21
Ili zar lončar nema vlasti nad glinom da od istoga tijesta načini posudu sad časnu, sad nečasnu.
22
A što ako je Bog, hoteći očitovati gnjev i obznaniti svoju moć u silnoj strpljivosti podnosio posude gnjeva, dozrele za propast,
23
da obznani bogatstvo slave svoje na posudama milosrđa, koje unaprijed pripravi za slavu,
24
na nama koje pozva ne samo između Židova nego i između pogana?
25
Tako i u Hošeji veli: Ne-narod moj prozvat ću narodom mojim i Neljubljenu ljubljenom.
26
Na mjestu gdje im je rečeno: Vi niste moj narod prozvat će se sinovi Boga živoga.
27
Izaija pak proglasuje o Izraelu: Zaista, sinova će Izraelovih brojem biti kao pijeska morskog - Ostatak će se spasiti;
28
jer riječ će ispuniti i uskoro izvršiti Gospodin na zemlji.
29
Tako je Izaija i prorekao: Da nam Gospodin nad Vojskama ne ostavi sjeme, ko Sodoma bismo bili i Gomori nalik.
30
Što ćemo dakle reći? Da pogani koji nisu tražili pravednosti stekoše pravednost, pravednost po vjeri.
31
Izrael pak koji je tražio neki zakon pravednosti, nije do zakona dopro.
32
Zašto? Jer nije tražio po vjeri, nego kao po djelima. Spotakoše se o kamen spoticanja,
33
kao što je pisano: Evo postavljam na Sionu kamen spoticanja i stijenu posrtanja. Ali tko u nj vjeruje, neće se postidjeti.
Romans
Capítulo 9
1
I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,
2
That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
3
For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:
4
Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;
5
Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
6
Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
7
Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
8
That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
9
For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son.
10
And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;
11
(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)
12
It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13
As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
14
What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
15
For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16
So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
17
For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
18
Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.
19
Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
20
Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
21
Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
22
What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
23
And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
24
Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
25
As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.
26
And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.
27
Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
28
For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
29
And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.
30
What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
31
But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
32
Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
33
As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
