Romans 3 глава

Romans
New Living Translation → Елизаветинская на русском

Then what’s the advantage of being a Jew? Is there any value in the ceremony of circumcision?

Что убо лишшее иудею? или кая польза обрезания?

Yes, there are great benefits! First of all, the Jews were entrusted with the whole revelation of God.a

Много, по всякому образу: первее бо, яко вверена быша им словеса Божия.

True, some of them were unfaithful; but just because they were unfaithful, does that mean God will be unfaithful?

Что бо, аще не вероваша нецыи? еда (убо) неверствие их веру Божию упразднит?

Of course not! Even if everyone else is a liar, God is true. As the Scriptures say about him, “You will be proved right in what you say, and you will win your case in court.”b

Да не будет: да будет же Бог истинен, всяк же человек ложь, якоже есть писано: яко да оправдишися во словесех твоих, и победиши, внегда судити ти.

“But,” some might say, “our sinfulness serves a good purpose, for it helps people see how righteous God is. Isn’t it unfair, then, for him to punish us?” (This is merely a human point of view.)

Аще ли неправда наша Божию правду составляет, что речем? еда ли неправеден Бог наносяй гнев? по человеку глаголю.

Of course not! If God were not entirely fair, how would he be qualified to judge the world?

Да не будет: понеже како судити имать Бог миру?

“But,” someone might still argue, “how can God condemn me as a sinner if my dishonesty highlights his truthfulness and brings him more glory?”

Аще бо истина Божия в моей лжи избыточествова в славу его, что еще и аз яко грешник осуждаюся,

And some people even slander us by claiming that we say, “The more we sin, the better it is!” Those who say such things deserve to be condemned.

И не якоже хулимся, и якоже глаголют нецыи нас глаголати, яко сотворим злая, да приидут благая: ихже суд праведен есть.

Well then, should we conclude that we Jews are better than others? No, not at all, for we have already shown that all people, whether Jews or Gentiles,c are under the power of sin.

Что убо, преимеем ли? Никакоже: предукорихом бо иудеи же и еллины вся под грехом быти,

As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous — not even one.

якоже есть писано. Яко несть праведен никтоже:

No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God.

несть разумеваяи, и несть взыскаяй Бога:

All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.”d

вси уклонишася, вкупе непотребни быша. несть творяй благостыню, несть даже до единаго.

“Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave. Their tongues are filled with lies.” “Snake venom drips from their lips.”e

Гроб отверст гортань их, языки своими льщаху. Яд аспидов под устнами их.

“Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.”f

ихже уста клятвы и горести полна суть.

“They rush to commit murder.

Скоры ноги их пролияти кровь:

Destruction and misery always follow them.

сокрушение и озлобление на путех их,

They don’t know where to find peace.”g

и пути мирнаго не познаша.

“They have no fear of God at all.”h

Несть страха Божия пред очима их.

Obviously, the law applies to those to whom it was given, for its purpose is to keep people from having excuses, and to show that the entire world is guilty before God.

Вемы же, яко елика закон глаголет, сущым в законе глаголет: да всяка уста заградятся, и повинен будет весь мир Богови:

For no one can ever be made right with God by doing what the law commands. The law simply shows us how sinful we are.

зане от дел закона не оправдится всяка плоть пред ним: законом бо познание греха.

But now God has shown us a way to be made right with him without keeping the requirements of the law, as was promised in the writings of Mosesi and the prophets long ago.

Ныне же кроме закона правда Божия явися, свидетельствуема от закона и пророк.

We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are.

Правда же Божия верою Иисус Христовою во всех и на всех верующих: несть бо разнствия,

For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.

вси бо согрешиша, и лишени суть славы Божия,

Yet God, in his grace, freely makes us right in his sight. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins.

оправдаеми туне благодатию его, избавлением, еже о Христе Иисусе,

For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood. This sacrifice shows that God was being fair when he held back and did not punish those who sinned in times past,

егоже предположи Бог очищение верою в крови его, в явление правды своея, за отпущение прежде бывших грехов,

for he was looking ahead and including them in what he would do in this present time. God did this to demonstrate his righteousness, for he himself is fair and just, and he makes sinners right in his sight when they believe in Jesus.

в долготерпении Божии, и в показание правды его в нынешнее время, во еже быти ему праведну и оправдающу сущаго от веры Иисусовы.

Can we boast, then, that we have done anything to be accepted by God? No, because our acquittal is not based on obeying the law. It is based on faith.

Где убо похвала, отгнася. Которым законом? делы ли? Ни, но законом веры.

So we are made right with God through faith and not by obeying the law.

Мыслим убо верою оправдатися человеку, без дел закона.

After all, is God the God of the Jews only? Isn’t he also the God of the Gentiles? Of course he is.

Или иудеев Бог токмо, а не и языков? Ей, и языков:

There is only one God, and he makes people right with himself only by faith, whether they are Jews or Gentiles.j

понеже един Бог, иже оправдит обрезание от веры и необрезание верою.

Well then, if we emphasize faith, does this mean that we can forget about the law? Of course not! In fact, only when we have faith do we truly fulfill the law.

Закон ли убо разоряем верою? Да не будет: но закон утверждаем.
