Luka 11
1 Jednom je Isus na nekome mjestu molio. Čim presta, reče mu jedan od učenika: “Gospodine, nauči nas moliti kao što je i Ivan naučio svoje učenike.”
When he finished praying in a certain place, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples.”
2 On im reče: “Kad molite, govorite: 'Oče! Sveti se ime tvoje! Dođi kraljevstvo tvoje!
He said to them, “When you pray, say, ‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
3 Kruh naš svagdanji daji nam svaki dan!
Give us day by day our daily bread.
4 I otpusti nam grijehe naše: ta i mi otpuštamo svakom dužniku svojem! I ne uvedi nas u napast!'”
Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’”
5 I reče im: “Tko to od vas ima ovakva prijatelja? Pođe k njemu o ponoći i rekne mu: 'Prijatelju, posudi mi tri kruha.
He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
6 Prijatelj mi se s puta svratio te nemam što staviti preda nj!'
for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’
7 A onaj mu iznutra odgovori: 'Ne dosađuj mi! Vrata su već zatvorena, a dječica sa mnom u postelji. Ne mogu ustati da ti dadnem...'
and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’?
8 Kažem vam: ako i ne ustane da mu dadne zato što mu je prijatelj, ustat će i dati mu što god treba zbog njegove bezočnosti.”
I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.
9 “I ja vama kažem: Ištite i dat će vam se! Tražite i naći ćete! Kucajte i otvorit će vam se!
“I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.
10 Doista, tko god ište, prima; i tko traži, nalazi; i onomu tko kuca, otvorit će se.”
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
11 “A koji je to otac među vama: kad ga sin zaište ribu, zar će mu mjesto ribe zmiju dati?
“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?
12 Ili kad zaište jaje, zar će mu dati štipavca?
Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he?
13 Ako dakle vi, iako zli, znate dobrim darima darivati djecu svoju, koliko li će više Otac s neba obdariti Duhom Svetim one koji ga zaištu!”
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”
14 I istjerivaše đavla koji bijaše nijem. Kad iziđe đavao, progovori njemak. I mnoštvo se divilo.
He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. When the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the multitudes marveled.
15 A neki od njih rekoše: “Po Beelzebulu, poglavici đavolskom, izgoni đavle!”
But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
16 A drugi su iskušavajući ga, tražili od njega kakav znak s neba.
Others, testing him, sought from him a sign from heaven.
17 Ali on, znajući njihove misli, reče im: “Svako kraljevstvo u sebi razdijeljeno opustjet će i kuća će na kuću pasti.
But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. A house divided against itself falls.
18 Ako je dakle Sotona u sebi razdijeljen, kako će opstati kraljevstvo njegovo? Jer vi kažete da ja po Beelzebulu izgonim đavle.
If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.
19 Ako dakle ja po Beelzebulu izgonim đavle, po kome ih vaši sinovi izgone? Zato će vam oni biti suci.
But if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
20 Ali ako ja prstom Božjim izgonim đavle, zbilja je došlo k vama kraljevstvo Božje.”
But if I by God’s finger cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come to you.
21 “Dokle god jaki i naoružani čuva svoj stan, u miru je sav njegov posjed.
“When the strong man, fully armed, guards his own dwelling, his goods are safe.
22 Ali ako dođe jači od njega, svlada ga i otme mu sve njegovo oružje u koje se uzdao, a plijen razdijeli.”
But when someone stronger attacks him and overcomes him, he takes from him his whole armor in which he trusted, and divides his plunder.
23 “Tko nije sa mnom, protiv mene je. I tko sa mnom ne sabire, rasipa.”
“He who is not with me is against me. He who doesn’t gather with me scatters.
24 “Kad nečisti duh iziđe iz čovjeka, luta bezvodnim mjestima tražeći spokoja. Kad ga ne nađe, rekne: 'Vratit ću se u kuću odakle iziđoh.'
The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of the man, passes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, ‘I will turn back to my house from which I came out.’
25 Došavši, nađe je pometenu i uređenu.
When he returns, he finds it swept and put in order.
26 Tada ode i uzme sa sobom sedam drugih duhova, gorih od sebe, te uđu i nastane se ondje. Na kraju bude onomu čovjeku gore nego na početku.”
Then he goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first.”
27 Dok je on to govorio, povika neka žena iz mnoštva: “Blažena utroba koja te nosila i prsi koje si sisao!”
It came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman out of the multitude lifted up her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts which nursed you!”
28 On odgovori: “Još blaženiji oni koji slušaju riječ Božju i čuvaju je!”
But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.”
29 Kad je nagrnulo mnoštvo, poče im Isus govoriti: “Naraštaj ovaj naraštaj je opak. Znak traži, ali mu se znak neće dati doli znak Jonin.
When the multitudes were gathering together to him, he began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks after a sign. No sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
30 Doista, kao što je Jona bio znak Ninivljanima, tako će biti i Sin Čovječji ovomu naraštaju.”
For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will also be to this generation.
31 “Kraljica će Juga ustati na Sudu s ljudima ovog naraštaja i osuditi ih jer je s krajeva zemlje došla čuti mudrost Salomonovu, a evo ovdje i više od Salomona!
The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and will condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, one greater than Solomon is here.
32 Ninivljani će ustati na Sudu s ovim naraštajem i osuditi ga jer se obratiše na propovijed Joninu, a evo ovdje i više od Jone!”
The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, one greater than Jonah is here.
33 “Nitko ne užiže svjetiljku da je stavi u zakutak ili pod posudu, nego na svijećnjak da oni koji ulaze vide svjetlost.
“No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.
34 Oko je svjetiljka tvomu tijelu. Kad ti je oko bistro, sve ti je tijelo svijetlo. A kad je ono nevaljalo, i tijelo ti je tamno.
The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.
35 Pazi dakle da svjetlost koja je u tebi ne bude tamna.
Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.
36 Ako ti dakle sve tijelo bude svijetlo, bez djelića tame, bit će posve svijetlo, kao kad te svjetiljka svojim sjajem rasvjetljuje.”
If therefore your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly full of light, as when the lamp with its bright shining gives you light.”
37 Dok je on govorio, pozva ga neki farizej k sebi na objed. On uđe i priđe k stolu.
Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in and sat at the table.
38 Vidjevši to, farizej se začudi što se Isus prije objeda ne opra.
When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.
39 A Gospodin mu reče: “Da, vi farizeji čistite vanjštinu čaše u zdjele, a nutrina vam je puna grabeža i pakosti.
The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
40 Bezumnici! Nije li onaj koji načini vanjštinu načinio i nutrinu.
You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?
41 Nego, dajte za milostinju ono iznutra i gle - sve vam je čisto.”
But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.
42 “Ali jao vama, farizeji! Namirujete desetinu od metvice i rutvice i svake vrste povrća, a ne marite za pravednost i ljubav Božju. Ovo je trebalo činiti, a ono ne zanemariti.”
But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and God’s love. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
43 “Jao vama farizeji! Volite prvo sjedalo u sinagogama i pozdrave na trgovima.
Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
44 Jao vama! Vi ste kao nezamjetljivi grobovi po kojima ljudi ne znajući hode.”
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like hidden graves, and the men who walk over them don’t know it.”
45 Nato će neki zakonoznanac: “Učitelju, tako govoreći i nas vrijeđaš.”
One of the lawyers answered him, “Teacher, in saying this you insult us also.”
46 A on reče: “Jao i vama, zakonoznanci! Tovarite na ljude terete nepodnosive, a sami ni da ih se jednim prstom dotaknete.”
He said, “Woe to you lawyers also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens.
47 “Jao vama! Podižete spomenike prorocima, a vaši ih oci ubiše.
Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Zato ste svjedoci i sumišljenici djela svojih otaca: oni ih ubiše, a vi spomenike podižete!
So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.
49 Zbog toga i kaza Mudrost Božja: 'Poslat ću k njima proroke i apostole. Neke će poubijati i prognati -
Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute,
50 da se od ovog naraštaja zatraži krv svih proroka prolivena od postanka svijeta,
that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,
51 od krvi Abelove do krvi Zaharije, koji je pogubljen između žrtvenika i svetišta.' Da, kažem vam, tražit će se od ovoga naraštaja!”
from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.
52 “Jao vama, zakonoznanci! Uzeste ključ znanja: sami ne uđoste, a spriječiste one koji htjedoše ući.”
Woe to you lawyers! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”
53 Kad Isus izađe odande, stadoše pismoznanci i farizeji žestoko na nj navaljivati i postavljati mu mnoga pitanja
As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him,
54 vrebajući na nj, ne bi li štogod ulovili iz njegovih usta.
lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.
