< Djela apostolska 21 >
1 Pošto se otrgosmo od njih, zaplovismo. Jedreći ravno, stigosmo na Kos, a sutradan na Rod pa odande u Pataru.
And when, having got away from them, we at last sailed away, we came by a direct course to Cos, and on the morrow to Rhodes, and thence to Patara.
2 Kad nađosmo lađu za Feniciju, popesmo se i otplovismo.
And having found a ship passing over into Phoenicia, we went on board and sailed;
3 Kad bijasmo napomol Cipru, ostavismo ga slijeva jedreći prema Siriji. Pristadosmo u Tiru jer je ondje lađa imala iskrcati tovar.
and having sighted Cyprus, and left it on the left hand, we sailed to Syria, and made the land at Tyre, for there the ship was to discharge her cargo.
4 Pronađosmo učenike i ostadosmo ondje sedam dana. Oni po Duhu nagovarahu Pavla da ne uzlazi u Jeruzalem.
And having found out the disciples, we remained there seven days; who said to Paul by the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.
5 Ali kad nam istekoše dani, ipak otputovasmo. Ispratiše nas svi, sa ženama i djecom, do izvan grada. Na žalu klekosmo i pomolismo se.
But when we had completed the days, we set out and took our journey, all of them accompanying us, with wives and children, till [we were] out of the city. And kneeling down upon the shore we prayed.
6 Pozdravismo se, popesmo se na lađu, a oni se vratiše kući.
And having embraced one another, we went on board ship, and they returned home.
7 Tako dovršismo plovidbu. Iz Tira stigosmo u Ptolemaidu. Pozdravili smo braću i ostali jedan dan u njih.
And we, having completed the voyage, arrived from Tyre at Ptolemais, and having saluted the brethren, we remained one day with them.
8 Sutradan otputovasmo i stigosmo u Cezareju. Uđosmo u kuću Filipa evanđelista, jednog od sedmorice, i ostadosmo kod njega.
And leaving on the morrow, we came to Caesarea; and entering into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was of the seven, we abode with him.
9 On je imao četiri kćeri djevice koje su prorokovale.
Now this man had four virgin daughters who prophesied.
10 Kako smo se zadržali mnogo dana, siđe iz Judeje neki prorok imenom Agab,
And as we stayed there many days, a certain man, by name Agabus, a prophet, came down from Judaea,
11 dođe k nama, uze Pavlov pojas, sveza sebi noge i ruke te reče: “Ovo govori Duh Sveti: Čovjeka čiji je ovo pojas ovako će svezati Židovi u Jeruzalemu i predati u ruke pogana.”
and coming to us and taking the girdle of Paul, and having bound his own hands and feet, said, Thus saith the Holy Spirit, The man whose this girdle is shall the Jews thus bind in Jerusalem, and deliver him up into the hands of [the] Gentiles.
12 Kada smo to čuli, stadosmo mi i mještani zaklinjati Pavla da ne uzlazi u Jeruzalem.
And when we heard these things, both we and those of the place besought [him] not to go up to Jerusalem.
13 Nato on odvrati: “Što plačete i parate mi srce? Ta spreman sam ne samo biti svezan nego i umrijeti u Jeruzalemu za ime Gospodina Isusa.”
But Paul answered, What do ye, weeping and breaking my heart? for I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
14 A kako se nije dao nagovoriti, ušutjesmo rekavši: “Gospodnja budi volja!”
And when he would not be persuaded, we were silent, saying, The will of the Lord be done.
15 Nakon tih dana spremismo se i uzađosmo u Jeruzalem.
And after these days, having got our effects ready, we went up to Jerusalem.
16 S nama pođoše i učenici iz Cezareje pa nas odvedoše k nekomu Mnasonu Cipraninu, starom učeniku, da u njega odsjednemo.
And [some] of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing [with them] a certain Mnason, a Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we were to lodge.
17 Kad stigosmo u Jeruzalem, primiše nas braća radosno.
And when we arrived at Jerusalem the brethren gladly received us.
18 Sutradan ode Pavao zajedno s nama k Jakovu. Nađoše se ondje i sve starješine.
And on the morrow Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders came there.
19 Pošto ih pozdravi, stade im potanko izlagati što učini Bog među poganima po njegovoj službi.
And having saluted them, he related one by one the things which God had wrought among the nations by his ministry.
20 Pošto su ga oni poslušali, dadoše slavu Bogu pa mu rekoše: “Vidiš, brate: deseci su tisuća Židova povjerovali i svi su revnitelji Zakona.
And they having heard [it] glorified God, and said to him, Thou seest, brother, how many myriads there are of the Jews who have believed, and all are zealous of the law.
21 A o tebi im je dojavljeno da sve Židove koji su među poganima upućuješ na otpad od Mojsija učeći ih da ne obrezuju djece i ne žive po običajima.
And they have been informed concerning thee, that thou teachest all the Jews among the nations apostasy from Moses, saying that they should not circumcise their children, nor walk in the customs.
22 Što dakle? Čut će svakako da si došao.
What is it then? a multitude must necessarily come together, for they will hear that thou art come.
23 Učini stoga što ti kažemo. U nas su četiri čovjeka koji imaju zavjet.
This do therefore that we say to thee: We have four men who have a vow on them;
24 Njih uzmi, s njima se zajedno posveti, plati za njih da se ošišaju pa će svi spoznati da nema ništa od onoga što im je o tebi dojavljeno, nego da si i ti na pravu putu i da opslužuješ Zakon.
take these and be purified with them, and pay their expenses, that they may have their heads shaved; and all will know that [of those things] of which they have been informed about thee nothing is [true]; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, keeping the law.
25 A što se tiče pogana koji povjerovaše - poslali smo što odlučismo: da se klone mesa žrtvovana idolima, krvi, udavljenoga i bludništva.”
But concerning [those of] the nations who have believed, we have written, deciding that they should [observe no such thing, only to] keep themselves both from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication.
26 Nato Pavao uze one ljude, sutradan se s njima zajedno posveti, uđe u Hram, oglasi svršetak dana posvećenja nakon kojih će se za svakoga od njih prinijeti prinos.
Then Paul, taking the men, on the next day, having been purified, entered with them into the temple, signifying the time the days of the purification would be fulfilled, until the offering was offered for every one of them.
27 Kad se upravo navršavalo tih sedam dana, neki ga Židovi iz Azije opaze u Hramu, uzbune sav narod pa podignu na nj ruke
And when the seven days were nearly completed, the Jews from Asia, having seen him in the temple, set all the crowd in a tumult, and laid hands upon him,
28 vičući: “Izraelci, u pomoć! Evo čovjeka koji sve posvuda poučava protiv naroda, Zakona i ovoga mjesta pa je još i Grke uveo u Hram i oskvrnuo ovo sveto mjesto.”
crying, Israelites, help! this is the man who teaches all everywhere against the people, and the law, and this place, and has brought Greeks too into the temple, and profaned this holy place.
29 Jer prije su s njime u Gradu vidjeli Trofima Efežanina i mislili da je Pavao njega uveo u Hram.
For they had before seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.
30 Sav se grad uskomeša, nasta strka naroda. Pograbe Pavla i odvuku ga izvan Hrama pa odmah pozatvaraju vrata.
And the whole city was moved, and there was a concourse of the people; and having laid hold on Paul they drew him out of the temple, and immediately the doors were shut.
31 Dok su mu o glavi radili, dođe do tisućnika čete glas da je sav Jeruzalem uzavreo.
And as they were seeking to kill him, a representation came to the chiliarch of the band that the whole of Jerusalem was in a tumult;
32 On odmah uze vojnike i satnike pa otrča dolje k njima. Oni pak kako ugledaše tisućnika i vojnike, prestadoše udarati Pavla.
who, taking with him immediately soldiers and centurions, ran down upon them. But they, seeing the chiliarch and the soldiers, ceased beating Paul.
33 Onda se tisućnik približi, uhvati ga, zapovjedi da ga okuju dvojim verigama pa stade ispitivati tko je i što je učinio.
Then the chiliarch came up and laid hold upon him, and commanded [him] to be bound with two chains, and inquired who he might be, and what he had done.
34 Iz svjetine su jedni izvikivali ovo, drugi ono. Kako zbog graje nije mogao saznati ništa pouzdano, zapovjedi da se odvede u vojarnu.
And different persons cried some different thing in the crowd. But he, not being able to know the certainty on account of the uproar, commanded him to be brought into the fortress.
35 Kad se Pavao pojavi na stubama, morali su ga vojnici nositi zbog silovitosti svjetine.
But when he got upon the stairs it was so that he was borne by the soldiers on account of the violence of the crowd.
36 Jer mnoštvo je naroda išlo za njima i vikalo: “Smakni ga!”
For the multitude of the people followed, crying, Away with him.
37 Upravo na ulazu u vojarnu reče Pavao tisućniku: “Smijem li nešto reći?” On ga upita: “Zar znaš grčki?
But as he was about to be led into the fortress, Paul says to the chiliarch, Is it allowed me to say something to thee? And he said, Dost thou know Greek?
38 Ti dakle nisi onaj Egipćanin koji je prije nekoliko dana pobunio i u pustinju odveo one četiri tisuće bodežara?”
Thou art not then that Egyptian who before these days raised a sedition and led out into the wilderness the four thousand men of the assassins?
39 Pavao odvrati: “Ja sam Židov iz Tarza cilicijskoga, građanin grada znamenitoga. Molim te, dopusti mi progovoriti narodu.”
But Paul said, I am a Jew of Tarsus, citizen of no insignificant city of Cilicia, and I beseech of thee, allow me to speak to the people.
40 Kad mu on dopusti, Pavao stojeći na stubama mahnu rukom narodu pa kad nasta velika tišina, prozbori hebrejskim jezikom:
And when he had allowed him, Paul, standing on the stairs, beckoned with his hand to the people; and a great silence having been made, he addressed them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,
