1 STF Ili ne znate, braжo- ja govorim onima koji znaju zakon- da zakon vlada nad иovekom (samo) dok je иovek ћiv? BSB BSB: Do you not know, brothers (for I am speaking to those who know the law), that the law has authority over a man only as long as he lives?
2 STF Udata ћena privezana je zakonom za muћa (samo) dok je on ћiv; a ako li muћ njezin umre, razdreљi se od zakona muћevljega. BSB BSB: For instance, a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is released from the law of marriage.
3 STF (Samo) жe se, dakle, dok joj je muћ ћiv, zvati preljuboиinica ako poрe za drugog иoveka; a ako joj umre muћ, prosta je od zakona, i nije preljuboиinica ako poрe za drugog иoveka. BSB BSB: So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an adulteress if she marries another man.
4 STF Tako, braжo moja, i vi umreste zakonu telom Hristovim, da budete drugoga, onoga koji usta iz mrtvih, da plod donosimo Bogu. BSB BSB: Therefore, my brothers, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God.
5 STF Jer, kad besmo u mesu, zakonom raspaljene greљne strasti radile su u udima naљim, i donosili smo plod smrti. BSB BSB: For when we lived according to the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our bodies, bearing fruit for death.
6 STF A sad smo se oprostili zakona, jer smo umrli zakonu kojim smo bili vezani, pa (sad) sluћimo u novome duhu, a ne po starome slovu. BSB BSB: But now, having died to what bound us, we have been released from the law, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
7 STF Љta жemo, dakle, reжi? Je li zakon greh? Boћje saиuvaj! Ali sam greh poznao samo kroz zakon. Jer ne bih znao za ћelju, da zakon ne kaza: "Ne zaћeli!" BSB BSB: What then shall we say? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed, I would not have been mindful of sin if not for the law. For I would not have been aware of coveting if the law had not said, “Do not covet.”
8 STF Greh se posluћi zapoveљжu i stvori u meni svaku ћelju; jer je greh bez zakona mrtav. BSB BSB: But sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
9 STF Ja nekad ћivljah bez zakona; a kad doрe zapovest, greh oћive, BSB BSB: Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.
10 STF a ja umreh, i naрe se da mi je zapovest koja je data za ћivot, donela smrt. BSB BSB: So I discovered that the very commandment that was meant to bring life actually brought death.
11 STF Jer se greh posluћi zapoveљжu, prevari me i ubi me njome. BSB BSB: For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through the commandment put me to death.
13 STF Dobro mi, dakle, donese smrt? Boћe saиuvaj! Nego greh, da bi se pokazao kao greh, pomoжu dobroga donese mi smrt, da bi bio greh odviљe greљan zapoveљжu. BSB BSB: Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But in order that sin might be exposed as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
14 STF Jer znamo da je zakon duhovan, a ja sam od mesa, (te) prodan pod greh. BSB BSB: We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.
15 STF Jer ne znam љta иinim; jer ne иinim ono љto hoжu, nego na љto mrzim, to иinim. BSB BSB: I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do. But what I hate, I do.
16 STF A kad ono иinim љto neжu, slaћem se sa zakonom (i priznajem) da je dobar. BSB BSB: And if I do what I do not want to do, I admit that the law is good.
17 STF Ali tada ne иinim viљe ja to, nego greh koji ћivi u meni. BSB BSB: In that case, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
18 STF Jer znam da dobro ne ћivi u meni, t.j. u mesu mome. Jer hteti, kadar sam, ali uиiniti dobro, nisam kadar. BSB BSB: I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh; for I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
19 STF Jer ne иinim dobro, љto hoжu, nego zlo, љto neжu, to иinim. BSB BSB: For I do not do the good I want to do. Instead, I keep on doing the evil I do not want to do.
20 STF A kad иinim ono љto neжu, veж ne иinim ja to, nego greh koji ћivi u meni. BSB BSB: And if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
21 STF Kad, dakle, hoжu dobro da uиinim, nalazim zakon da sam kadar samo zlo uиiniti. BSB BSB: So this is the principle I have discovered: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me.
22 STF Radujem se zakonu Boћjem po unutraљnjem иoveku, BSB BSB: For in my inner being I delight in God’s law.
23 STF ali vidim drugi zakon u udima svojim, koji vojuje protiv zakona uma moga i zarobljava me zakonom greha koji je u udima mojim. BSB BSB: But I see another law at work in my body, warring against the law of my mind and holding me captive to the law of sin that dwells within me.
24 STF Ja nesreжni иovek! Ko жe me izbaviti od ovoga smrtnoga tela? BSB BSB: What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?
25 STF Bogu hvala kroz Isusa Hrista Gospoda naљeg! Tako, dakle, ja sam umom sluћim zakonu Boћjem, a mesom zakonu grehovnom. BSB BSB: Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
