Djela apostolska 18
1 Nakon toga napusti Pavao Atenu i ode u Korint.
After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth.
2 Ondje nađe nekog Židova imenom Akvilu, rodom iz Ponta, koji netom bijaše došao iz Italije sa svojom ženom Priscilom jer je Klaudije naredio da svi Židovi napuste Rim. Pohodio ih je
He found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, who had recently come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome. He came to them,
3 i, kako bijahu istog zanimanja, ostao kod njih i radio. Po zanimanju bijahu šatorari.
and because he practiced the same trade, he lived with them and worked, for by trade they were tent makers.
4 Svake je pak subote raspravljao u sinagogi i uvjeravao Židove i Grke.
He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.
5 Kad iz Makedonije pristigoše Sila i Timotej, Pavao se potpuno posveti Riječi svjedočeći Židovima da Isus jest Krist.
But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the word, testifying to the Jews that Yeshua was the Messiah.
6 Kako se pak oni stadoše protiviti i huliti, otrese on haljine i reče im: “Krv vaša na glave vaše! Ja sam nedužan. Od sada idem k poganima.”
When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, "Your blood be on your own heads. I am clean. From now on, I will go to the non-Jewish people."
7 I ode odande te prijeđe u kuću nekoga bogobojazna čovjeka, imenom Ticija Justa, čija kuća bijaše tik do sinagoge.
He departed there, and went into the house of a certain man named Titius Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
8 A nadstojnik sinagoge Krisp povjerova Gospodinu zajedno sa svim svojim domom. I mnogi od Korinćana koji su to slušali povjerovaše i pokrstiše se.
Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house. Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were immersed.
9 Jedne noći reče Gospodin Pavlu u viđenju: “Ne boj se, nego govori i ne daj se ušutkati!
The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent;
10 Ta ja sam s tobom i nitko se neće usuditi da ti naudi. Jer mnogo je naroda mojega u ovome gradu.”
for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city."
11 Tako se zadrža godinu i šest mjeseci naučavajući među njima riječ Božju.
He lived there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
12 Ali dok je Galion bio prokonzul Ahaje, navališe Židovi jednodušno na Pavla, dovukoše ga u sudnicu
But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,
13 i rekoše: “Ovaj potiče ljude da protiv zakona štuju Boga.”
saying, "This one persuades people to worship God contrary to the law."
14 Pavao samo što nije zaustio kadli Galion reče Židovima: “Da je posrijedi zločin kakav ili nedjelo opako, saslušao bih vas, Židovi, kako je pravo;
But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime, you Jews, it would be reasonable that I should bear with you;
15 je li pak raspra o riječi i imenima i o nekom vašem zakonu, proviđajte sami; u tome ja ne želim biti sudac.”
but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves. For I do not want to be a judge of these matters."
16 I otpremi ih iz sudnice.
He drove them from the judgment seat.
17 A oni svi pograbiše nadstojnika sinagoge Sostena i stadoše ga šibati pred sudnicom. Galion nije za to ništa mario.
Then they all took hold of Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. But none of these things were of concern to Gallio.
18 Pavao osta još podosta vremena, a onda se oprosti s braćom pa pošto se u Kenhreji ošiša jer imaše zavjet, zaplovi prema Siriji, a s njime i Priscila i Akvila.
Paul, having stayed after this many more days, took his leave of the brothers, and sailed from there for Syria, together with Priscilla and Aquila. He shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had a vow.
19 Stigoše u Efez. Tu ih ostavi, a on uđe u sinagogu i stade raspravljati sa Židovima.
They came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.
20 Oni ga zamole da ostanu duže vremena, ali on ne pristade,
When they asked him to stay a longer time, he declined;
21 nego se oprosti: “Još ću se, reče, vratiti k vama, bude li Božja volja.” I otplovi iz Efeza.
but taking his leave of them, and saying, "I will return again to you if God wills," he set sail from Ephesus.
22 Kad stiže u Cezareju, uziđe pozdraviti Crkvu pa onda siđe u Antiohiju.
When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the congregation, and went down to Antioch.
23 Neko se vrijeme zadrža pa onda ode i zareda galacijskim područjem i Frigijom utvrđujući sve učenike.
Having spent some time there, he departed, and went through the region of Galatia, and Phrygia, in order, strengthening all the talmidim.
24 Uto neki Židov imenom Apolon, rodom Aleksandrijac, čovjek rječit i upućen u Pisma, stiže u Efez.
Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus. He was mighty in the Scriptures.
25 On bijaše upućen u Put Gospodnji pa je vatrene duše govorio i naučavao pomno o Isusu, premda je znao samo za Ivanovo krštenje.
This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Yeshua, although he knew only the immersion of John.
26 Poče on tako smjelo govoriti u sinagogi. Čuše ga Priscila i Akvila, uzeše ga k sebi i pomnije mu izložiše Put Božji.
He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside, and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
27 A kad je nakanio otići u Ahaju, ohrabriše ga braća i napisaše učenicima da ga prime. Kad je stigao onamo, uvelike je koristio vjernicima po milosti
When he had determined to pass over into Achaia, the brothers encouraged him, and wrote to the talmidim to receive him. When he had come, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace;
28 jer je snažno pobijao Židove javno pokazujući iz Pisama da Isus jest Krist.
for he powerfully refuted the Jews, publicly showing by the Scriptures that Yeshua was the Messiah.
