WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Nisam li ja apostol? Nisam li sam svoj? Ne videh li ja Isusa Hrista, Gospoda našeg? Niste li vi delo moje u Gospodu?
1 Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Haven’t I seen Jesus Christ, our Lord? Aren’t you my work in the Lord?
2 Ako drugima i nisam apostol, ali vama jesam, jer ste vi pečat mog apostolstva u Gospodu.
2 If to others I am not an apostle, yet at least I am to you; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
3 Moj odgovor onima koji me uspitaju ovo je:
3 My defense to those who examine me is this:
4 Eda li nemamo vlasti jesti i piti?
4 Have we no right to eat and to drink?
5 Eda li nemamo vlasti sestru ženu voditi, kao i ostali apostoli, i braća Gospodnja, i Kifa?
5 Have we no right to take along a wife who is a believer, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
6 Ili jedan ja i Varnava nemamo vlasti ovo činiti?
6 Or have only Barnabas and I no right to not work?
7 Ko vojuje kad o svom trošku? Ili ko sadi vinograd i od rodova njegovih da ne jede? Ili ko pase stado i od mleka stada da ne jede?
7 What soldier ever serves at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard, and doesn’t eat of its fruit? Or who feeds a flock, and doesn’t drink from the flock’s milk?
8 Eda li ovo govorim po čoveku? Ne govori li ovo i zakon?
8 Do I speak these things according to the ways of men? Or doesn’t the law also say the same thing?
9 Jer je u Mojsijevom zakonu napisano: Da ne zavežeš usta volu koji vrše. Eda li se Bog brine za volove?
9 For it is written in the law of Moses, “You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain.” Is it for the oxen that God cares,
10 Ili jamačno govori za nas? Jer se za nas napisa: Koji ore treba u nadanju da ore; i koji vrše u nadanju da će dobiti od onog što vrše.
10 or does he say it assuredly for our sake? Yes, it was written for our sake, because he who plows ought to plow in hope, and he who threshes in hope should partake of his hope.
11 Kada mi vama duhovna sejasmo, je li to šta veliko ako mi vama telesna požnjemo?
11 If we sowed to you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we reap your fleshly things?
12 Kad se drugi mešaju u vašu vlast, a kamoli ne bi mi? Ali ne učinismo po vlasti ovoj nego sve trpimo da ne učinimo kakvu smetnju jevanđelju Hristovom.
12 If others partake of this right over you, don’t we yet more? Nevertheless we didn’t use this right, but we bear all things, that we may cause no hindrance to the Good News of Christ.
13 Ne znate li da oni koji čine svetu službu od svetinje se hrane? I koji oltaru služe s oltarom dele?
13 Don’t you know that those who serve around sacred things eat from the things of the temple, and those who wait on the altar have their portion with the altar?
14 Tako i Gospod zapovedi da oni koji jevanđelje propovedaju od jevanđelja žive.
14 Even so the Lord ordained that those who proclaim the Good News should live from the Good News.
15 A ja to nijedno ne učinih. I ne pišem ovo da tako bude za mene; jer bih voleo umreti nego da ko slavu moju uništi.
15 But I have used none of these things, and I don’t write these things that it may be done so in my case; for I would rather die, than that anyone should make my boasting void.
16 Jer ako propovedam jevanđelje, nema mi hvale: jer mi je za nevolju; i teško meni ako jevanđelja ne propovedam.
16 For if I preach the Good News, I have nothing to boast about, for necessity is laid on me; but woe is to me if I don’t preach the Good News.
17 Ako dakle ovo činim od svoje volje, platu imam; a ako li činim za nevolju, služba mi je predata.
17 For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward. But if not of my own will, I have a stewardship entrusted to me.
18 Kakva mi je dakle plata? Da propovedajući jevanđelje učinim bez plate jevanđelje Hristovo, da ne činim po svojoj vlasti u propovedanju jevanđelja.
18 What then is my reward? That when I preach the Good News, I may present the Good News of Christ without charge, so as not to abuse my authority in the Good News.
19 Jer premda sam slobodan od svih, svima sebe učinih robom, da ih više pridobijem.
19 For though I was free from all, I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the more.
20 Jevrejima sam bio kao Jevrejin da Jevreje pridobijem; onima koji su pod zakonom bio sam kao pod zakonom, da pridobijem one koji su pod zakonom;
20 To the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain those who are under the law;
21 onima koji su bez zakona bio sam kao bez zakona, premda nisam Bogu bez zakona nego sam u zakonu Hristovom, da pridobijem one koji su bez zakona.
21 to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law.
22 Slabima bio sam kao slab, da slabe pridobijem; svima sam bio sve, da kakogod spasem koga.
22 To the weak I became as weak, that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I may by all means save some.
23 A ovo činim za jevanđelje, da bih imao deo u njemu.
23 Now I do this for the sake of the Good News, that I may be a joint partaker of it.
24 Ne znate li da oni što trče na trku, svi trče, a jedan dobije dar? Tako trčite da dobijete.
24 Don’t you know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run like that, so that you may win.
25 Svaki pak koji se bori od svega se uzdržava: oni dakle da dobiju raspadljiv venac, a mi neraspadljiv.
25 Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.
26 Ja dakle tako trčim, ne kao na nepouzdano; tako se borim, ne kao onaj koji bije vetar;
26 I therefore run like that, not aimlessly. I fight like that, not beating the air,
27 nego morim telo svoje i trudim da kako sam drugima propovedajući izbačen ne budem.
27 but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Inasmuch as he had said, "If meat make my brother to stumble I will eat no flesh forever;" a thing which he had not yet done, but professed he would do if need require: lest any man should say, "Thou vauntest thyself at random, and art severe in discourse, and utterest words of promise, a thing easy to me or …

But I so run, not as uncertainty; I fight, not as one beating the air; but I make my body livid, and bring it into subjection, lest by any means, when preaching to others, I may myself be rendered a castaway." This able wrestler, therefore, exhorts us to the struggle for immortality, that we may be crowned, and may deem …
But now is necessity sweet unto me, and against this sweetness do I fight, lest I be enthralled; and I carry on a daily war by fasting, oftentimes "bringing my body into subjection," and my pains are expelled by pleasure.
