< Marko 4 >

1 I poče opet poučavati uz more. I zgrnu se k njemu silan svijet te on uđe u lađu i sjede na moru, a sve ono mnoštvo bijaše uz more, na kopnu.
And He began to teach again by the sea-side, and there was gathered unto Him a great multitude; so that He went into a ship, and sat on board, and all the people were by the sea, upon the shore.
2 Poučavao ih je u prispodobama mnogočemu. Govorio im u pouci:
And He taught them many things by similitudes, and said to them in his instruction,
3 “Poslušajte! Gle, iziđe sijač sijati.
hearken, Behold a sower went out to sow:
4 I dok je sijao, poneko zrno pade uz put, dođoše ptice i pozobaše ga.
and in sowing, some fell by the way-side, and the birds came and ate it up:
5 Neko opet pade na kamenito tlo gdje nemaše dosta zemlje. Odmah izniknu jer nemaše duboke zemlje.
and some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth, and it sprang up immediately, because it had not depth of earth;
6 Ali kad ogranu sunce, izgorje; i jer nemaše korijenja, osuši se.
but when the sun rose, it was burnt up, and withered because it had no root:
7 Neko opet pade u trnje i trnje uzraste i uguši ga te ploda ne donese.
and some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit:
8 Neko napokon pade u dobru zemlju i dade plod, razraste se i razmnoži, te donese: jedno tridesetostruko, jedno šezdesetostruko, jedno stostruko.”
and other fell on good ground, and yielded fruit springing up and increasing; and produced some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred-fold.
9 I doda: “Tko ima uši da čuje, neka čuje!”
And He said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 Kad bijaše nasamo, oni oko njega zajedno s dvanaestoricom pitahu ga o prispodobama.
And when He was apart from the multitude, those that were about Him with the twelve asked Him concerning the parable.
11 I govoraše im: “Vama je dano otajstvo kraljevstva Božjega, a onima vani sve biva u prispodobama:
And he said unto them, To you it is granted to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but unto them that are without all things are delivered in parables:
12 da gledaju, gledaju - i ne vide, slušaju, slušaju - i ne razumiju, da se ne obrate pa da im se otpusti.”
that in seeing they may see and not perceive, and in hearing they may hear and not understand, least they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven them.
13 I kaže im: “Zar ne znate tu prispodobu? Kako ćete onda razumjeti prispodobe uopće?
Then saith He unto them, Do ye not understand this parable? how then will ye understand all my other parables.
14 Sijač sije Riječ.
The sower is he that soweth the word. And these are they by the way-side:
15 Oni uz put, gdje je Riječ posijana, jesu oni kojima, netom čuju, odmah dolazi Sotona i odnosi Riječ u njih posijanu.
where the word is sown; but when they have heard it, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.
16 Zasijani na tlo kamenito jesu oni koji kad čuju Riječ, odmah je s radošću prime,
And in like manner, they that are sown as on stony grounds are such, as when they hear the word,
17 ali nemaju u sebi korijena, nego su nestalni: kad nastane nevolja ili progonstvo zbog Riječi, odmah se sablazne.
immediately receive it with joy, but have no root in themselves, and so continue but for a short season: and then, when affliction cometh, or persecution on account of the word, they are as soon offended.
18 A drugi su oni u trnje zasijani. To su oni koji poslušaju Riječ,
And those that are sown as among thorns, are these: such as hear the word indeed,
19 ali nadošle brige vremenite, zavodljivost bogatstva i ostale požude uguše Riječ te ona ostane bez ploda. (aiōn g165)
but the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and inordinate desires after other things entering in choke the word, and so it becometh unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 A zasijani na dobru zemlju jesu oni koji čuju i prime Riječ te urode: tridesetostruko, šezdesetostruko, stostruko.
And these are they who are like seed sown on good ground: such as hear the word, and receive it; and bring forth fruit, some thirty-fold, and some sixty, and some an hundred.
21 I govoraše im: “Unosi li se svjetiljka da se pod posudu stavi ili pod postelju? Zar ne da se stavi na svijećnjak?
And He said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or a bed, and not to be set on a candlestick?
22 Ta ništa nije zastrto, osim zato da se očituje; i ništa skriveno, osim zato da dođe na vidjelo!
for there is nothing hidden, which may not be revealed; nor was there any thing concealed, but in order to become manifest.
23 Ima li tko uši da čuje, neka čuje.”
If any one hath ears to hear, let him hear.
24 I govoraše im: “Pazite što slušate. Mjerom kojom mjerite mjerit će vam se. I nadodat će vam se.
And mind what ye hear: for with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you; and more shall be imparted to you that are observant:
25 Doista, onomu tko ima dat će se, a onomu tko nema oduzet će se i ono što ima.”
for whosoever hath, to him more shall be given; and he that hath not, even what he hath, or seemeth to have, shall be taken from him.
26 I govoraše im: “Kraljevstvo je Božje kao kad čovjek baci sjeme u zemlju.
And He said, The kingdom of God is as if a man should cast seed into the ground,
27 Spavao on ili bdio, noću i danju sjeme klija i raste - sam ne zna kako;
and sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up, and increase; he knows not how.
28 zemlja sama od sebe donosi plod: najprije stabljiku, onda klas i napokon puno zrnja na klasu.
For the earth produces fruit of itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full corn in the ear:
29 A čim plod dopusti, brže se on laća srpa jer eto žetve.”
but when the fruit is ripe, he immediately puts in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
30 I govoraše: “Kako da prispodobimo kraljevstvo nebesko ili u kojoj da ga prispodobi iznesemo?
And He said, To what shall we compare the kingdom of God, or by what similitude shall we represent it?
31 Kao kad se gorušičino zrno posije u zemlju. Manje od svega sjemenja na zemlji,
It is like to a grain of mustard-seed, which when it is sown in the ground, is one of the lest of all the seeds on the earth:
32 jednoć posijano, naraste i postane veće od svega povrća pa potjera velike grane te se pod sjenom njegovom gnijezde ptice nebeske.”
but after it is sown, it grows up, and becomes greater than all herbs, and produces large branches, so that the birds of the air may lodge under it's shadow.
33 Mnogim takvim prispodobama navješćivaše im Riječ, kako već mogahu slušati.
And in many such parables spake He the word to them, as they had ability to hear it: but spake not to them without a parable.
34 Bez prispodobe im ne govoraše, a nasamo bi svojim učenicima sve razjašnjavao.
And He explained all to his disciples in private.
35 Uvečer istoga dana kaže im: “Prijeđimo prijeko!”
And the same day, in the evening, He saith to them, Let us go over to the other side.
36 Oni otpuste mnoštvo i povezu Isusa kako već bijaše u lađi. A pratile su ga i druge lađe.
So they dismissed the multitude, and took Him as He was in the ship. But there were other small vessels likewise with Him.
37 Najednom nasta žestoka oluja, na lađu navale valovi te su je već gotovo napunili.
And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now almost full.
38 A on na krmi spavaše na uzglavku. Probude ga i kažu mu: “Učitelju! Zar ne mariš što ginemo?”
And He was in the stern asleep on a pillow: and they awake Him, and say unto Him, Master, art thou under no concern that we are perishing?
39 On se probudi, zaprijeti vjetru i reče moru: “Utihni! Umukni!” I smiri se vjetar i nasta velika utiha.
And He rose and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still; and the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 Tada im reče: “Što ste bojažljivi? Kako nemate vjere?”
And He said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how! have ye no faith?
41 Oni se silno prestrašiše pa se zapitkivahu: “Tko li je ovaj da mu se i vjetar i more pokoravaju?”
And they were exceedingly afraid, and said to one another, Who is this? that even the wind and the sea obey Him?
