Matej 27
1 A kad objutri, svi su glavari svećenički i starješine narodne održali vijećanje protiv Isusa da ga pogube.
Very early the next morning all the chief priests and Jewish elders decided how [to arrange for the Romans] to execute Jesus.
2 I svezana ga odveli i predali upravitelju Pilatu.
They tied his hands and took him to Pilate, the [Roman] governor.
3 Kada Juda, njegov izdajica, vidje da je Isus osuđen, pokaja se i vrati trideset srebrnjaka glavarima svećeničkim i starješinama
When Judas, the one who had (betrayed/enabled Jesus’ enemies to seize) him, realized that they had decided to have Jesus executed, he was very sorry [about what he had done]. He took the 30 coins back to the chief priests and elders.
4 govoreći: “Sagriješih predavši krv nedužnu!” Odgovoriše: “Što se to nas tiče? To je tvoja stvar!”
He said, “I have sinned. I have (betrayed/enabled you to seize) a man who (is innocent/has not done anything wrong).” They replied, “(That means nothing to us!/What does that mean to us?) [RHQ] That is your problem!”
5 I bacivši srebrnjake u Hram, ode te se objesi.
So Judas [took] the money [and] threw it inside the Temple. Then he went away and hanged himself.
6 Glavari svećenički uzeše srebrnjake i rekoše:
[Later] the high priests [found] the coins. They picked them up and said, “This is money that we paid [to have a man killed] [MTY], and our law does not allow [such money] to be put {us to put [such money]} into the [Temple treasury].”
7 “Nije dopušteno staviti ih u hramsku riznicu jer su krvarina.” Posavjetuju se i kupe za njih lončarovu njivu za ukop stranaca.
So they decided to use that money to buy the field where clay was dug for making pots {men dug ground for making pots}. [They made that field] a place where they buried strangers [who died in Jerusalem].
8 Stoga se ona njiva zove “Krvava njiva” sve do danas.
That is why that place is still called {why they still call that place} ‘The field of blood’.
9 Tada se ispuni što je rečeno po proroku Jeremiji: Uzeše trideset srebrnjaka - cijenu Neprocjenjivoga kojega procijeniše sinovi Izraelovi -
[By buying that field], they fulfilled these words that the prophet Jeremiah wrote [long ago]: They took the 30 silver coins; That was what the leaders of Israel decided [that he was worth];
10 i dadoše ih za njivu lončarovu kako mi naredi Gospodin.
and with that money they bought the field where clay was dug for potters. They did that as the Lord had commanded me.
11 Dovedoše dakle Isusa pred upravitelja. Upita ga upravitelj: “Ti li si kralj židovski?” On odgovori: “Ti kažeš.”
Jesus stood in front of [Pilate], the governor. The governor asked Jesus, “Do you [claim to be] the king of the Jews?” Jesus replied, “[It is] as you have [just] said.”
12 I dok su ga glavari svećenički i starješine narodne optuživale, ništa nije odgovarao.
When he was accused by the chief priests and elders {When the chief priests and elders accused him} about various things, he did not answer.
13 Tada mu reče Pilat: “Ne čuješ li što sve protiv tebe svjedoče?”
So Pilate said to him, “You hear how many things they are saying to accuse you; [are you not going to reply]?”
14 I ne odgovori mu ni na jednu riječ te se upravitelj silno čudio.
But [even though he was not guilty], Jesus did not say anything. He did not reply to any of the things about which they were accusing him. As a result, the governor was very surprised.
15 A o Blagdanu upravitelj je običavao svjetini pustiti jednoga uznika, koga bi već htjeli.
It was the governor’s custom [each year] during the [Passover] celebration to release [one person who was in prison]. [He released] whichever prisoner the people wanted.
16 Tada upravo bijaše u njih poznati uznik zvani Baraba.
At that time there was [in Jerusalem] a well-known prisoner whose name was Barabbas.
17 Kad se dakle sabraše, reče im Pilat: “Koga hoćete da vam pustim: Barabu ili Isusa koji se zove Krist?”
So when the crowd gathered, Pilate asked them, “Which [prisoner] would you like me to release for you: Barabbas, or Jesus, whom [some of you] claim to be the Messiah?”
18 Znao je doista da ga predadoše iz zavisti.
[He asked that question] because he realized that the chief priests [wanted to have Jesus executed]. They had brought Jesus to him [only] because they were jealous of Jesus. [And Pilate thought that the crowd would prefer that he release Jesus].
19 Dok je sjedio na sudačkoj stolici, poruči nu njegova žena: “Mani se ti onoga pravednika jer sam danas u snu mnogo pretrpjela zbog njega.”
While Pilate was sitting on the platform [where he made] judicial [decisions], his wife sent him [this message]: “Early this morning I had a bad dream because of that man. So do not condemn that righteous man!”
20 Međutim, glavari svećenički i starješine nagovore svjetinu da zaište Barabu, a Isus da se pogubi.
But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowd to ask [Pilate to] release Barabbas, and to [order] that Jesus be executed {that [his soldiers] execute Jesus}.
21 Upita ih dakle upravitelj: “Kojega od ove dvojice hoćete da vam pustim?” A oni rekoše: “Barabu!”
So when the governor asked them, “Which of the two men do you want me to release for you?” They replied, “Barabbas!”
22 Kaže im Pilat: “Što dakle da učinim s Isusom koji se zove Krist?” Oni će: “Neka se razapne.”
Pilate, [very astonished], asked, “So what shall I do with Jesus who [some of you] say is the Messiah?” They all answered, “[Command that] he be crucified! {[Command your soldiers] (to crucify him/to nail him to a cross)}!”
23 A on upita: “A što je zla učinio?” Vikahu još jače: “Neka se razapne!”
Pilate replied, “Why? What crime has he committed?” But they shouted even louder, “[Have] him crucified {[Command that your soldiers] crucify him}!”
24 Kad Pilat vidje da ništa ne koristi, nego da biva sve veći metež, uzme vodu i opere ruke pred svjetinom govoreći: “Nevin sam od krvi ove! Vi se pazite!”
Pilate realized that he was accomplishing nothing. He saw that instead, the people were starting to riot. So he took [a basin of] water and washed his hands as the crowd was watching. He said, “[By washing my hands I am showing you that] if this man dies [MTY], it is [your] fault, [not mine]!”
25 Sav narod nato odvrati: “Krv njegova na nas i na djecu našu!”
And all the people answered, “The guilt for causing him to die [MTY] will be on us, and it will be on our children, too!”
26 Tada im pusti Barabu, a Isusa, izbičevana, preda da se razapne.
Then he [ordered the soldiers to] release Barabbas for them. But he [ordered that his soldiers] flog Jesus. And then he turned Jesus over to the soldiers for them (to nail Jesus to a cross/to crucify him).
27 Onda vojnici upraviteljevi uvedoše Isusa u dvor upraviteljev i skupiše oko njega cijelu četu.
Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the government headquarters. The whole (cohort/group of soldiers) gathered around him.
28 Svukoše ga pa zaogrnuše skrletnim plaštem.
They pulled off [his clothes], and [pretending he was a king, they] put a purple robe on him.
29 Spletoše zatim vijenac od trnja i staviše mu na glavu, a tako i trsku u desnicu. Prigibajući pred njim koljena, izrugivahu ga: “Zdravo, kralju židovski!”
They [took some branches with] thorns and wove them to make a crown and put it on his head. They put in his right hand a reed [like a staff that a king would hold]. Then they knelt in front of him and made fun of him, saying, “Hooray for the king of the Jews [IRO]!”
30 Onda pljujući po njemu, uzimahu trsku i udarahu ga njome po glavi.
They kept spitting on him. They took the staff and kept striking him on the head with it.
31 Pošto ga izrugaše, svukoše mu plašt, obukoše mu njegove haljine pa ga odvedoše da ga razapnu.
When they had finished ridiculing him, they pulled off the robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him away to [the place where they] would nail him to a cross.
32 Izlazeći nađu nekoga čovjeka Cirenca, imenom Šimuna, i prisile ga da mu ponese križ.
[After Jesus carried his cross] a short distance, [the soldiers] saw a man named Simon, [who was] from Cyrene [city]. They forced him to carry the cross for Jesus.
33 I dođoše na mjesto zvano Golgota, to jest Lubanjsko mjesto,
They came to a place called Golgotha. That name means ‘the place [like] a skull’.
34 dadoše mu piti vino sa žuči pomiješano. I kad okusi, ne htjede piti.
When [they got there], they mixed with wine something that tasted very bitter. They gave it to [Jesus] to drink [so that he would not feel so much pain when they nailed him on the cross]. But when he tasted it, he refused to drink it. [Some soldiers took his clothes].
35 A pošto ga razapeše, razdijeliše među se haljine njegove bacivši kocku.
Then they nailed him to the cross. Afterwards, they divided his clothes among themselves by gambling with something like dice [to decide which piece of clothing each one would get].
36 I sjedeći ondje, čuvahu ga.
Then the soldiers sat down there to guard him, [to prevent anyone from trying to rescue him].
37 I staviše mu ponad glave krivicu napisanu: “Ovo je Isus, kralj židovski.”
They fastened [to the cross] above Jesus’ head a [sign on which had been] {[they had]} written why [they] were nailing him to the cross. [But all] it said was, ‘This is Jesus, the King of the Jews’.
38 Tada razapeše s njime dva razbojnika, jednoga zdesna, drugoga slijeva.
Two bandits were also nailed {They also nailed two bandits} on crosses. One was nailed to a cross on the right side [of Jesus] and one to a cross on the left side.
39 A prolaznici su ga pogrđivali mašući glavama:
The people who were passing by insulted him by shaking their heads [as if he were an evil man].
40 “Ti koji razvaljuješ Hram i za tri ga dana sagradiš, spasi sam sebe! Ako si Sin Božji, siđi s križa!”
They said, “You [said you] would destroy the Temple, and then you would build it again within three days! [So if you could do that], you [should be able to] save yourself! If you are the man who is also God (OR, If you are the Son of God), come down from the cross!”
41 Slično i glavari svećenički s pismoznancima i starješinama, rugajući se, govorahu:
Similarly, the chief priests, the men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the elders made fun of him. [Various ones of them] said things like,
42 “Druge je spasio, sebe ne može spasiti! Kralj je Izraelov! Neka sada siđe s križa pa ćemo povjerovati u nj!
“He [claims that he] saved others [IRO] [from their sicknesses], but he cannot help himself!” “He [says that he] is [IRO] the King of Israel. So he should come down from the cross. Then we would believe him!”
43 Uzdao se u Boga! Neka ga sad izbavi ako mu omilje! Ta govorio je: 'Sin sam Božji!'”
“He [says that he] trusts in God, and that he is the man who is also God. So if God is pleased with him, God should rescue him now!”
44 Tako ga vrijeđahu i s njim raspeti razbojnici.
And the [two] bandits who had been crucified with him also insulted him, saying similar things.
45 Od šeste ure nasta tama po svoj zemlji - do ure devete.
At noon it became dark over the whole land. [It stayed dark] until three o’clock [in the afternoon].
46 O devetoj uri povika Isus iza glasa: “Eli, Eli, lema sabahtani?” To će reći: “Bože moj, Bože moj, zašto si me ostavio?”
At about three o’clock Jesus shouted loudly, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” That means, ‘My God, my God, why have you deserted me?’
47 A neki od nazočnih, čuvši to, govorahu: “Ovaj zove Iliju.”
When some of the people standing there heard [the word ‘Eli’, misunderstanding it], they said, “He is calling for [the prophet] Elijah!”
48 I odmah pritrča jedan od njih, uze spužvu, natopi je octom, natakne je na trsku i pruži mu piti.
Immediately one of them ran and got a sponge. He filled it with sour wine. Then he put the sponge on [the tip of] a reed and [held it up in order that Jesus] could suck out [the wine that was in it].
49 A ostali rekoše: “Pusti da vidimo hoće li doći Ilija da ga spasi.”
But the other [people there] said, “Wait! Let’s see if Elijah comes to save him!”
50 A Isus opet povika iz glasa i ispusti duh.
Then after Jesus shouted out loudly again, he died, giving his spirit over [to God].
51 I gle, zavjesa se hramska razdrije odozgor dodolje, nadvoje; zemlja se potrese, pećine se raspukoše,
At that moment the [heavy thick] curtain [that closed off the most holy place] in the Temple split into two pieces from top to bottom. [That signified that ordinary people could now go into the presence of God]. The earth shook, and [some large] rocks split open.
52 grobovi otvoriše i tjelesa mnogih svetih preminulih uskrsnuše
[Some] tombs opened up, and the bodies of many godly people who had died became alive again.
53 te iziđoše iz grobova nakon njegova uskrsnuća, uđoše u sveti grad i pokazaše se mnogima.
They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus became alive again, they went into Jerusalem and appeared to many people [there].
54 A satnik i oni koji su s njime čuvali Isusa vidješe potres i što se zbiva, silno se prestrašiše i rekoše: “Uistinu, Sin Božji bijaše ovaj.”
The officer who supervised the soldiers [who nailed Jesus to the cross was standing nearby]. His soldiers who had been on guard [so that no one would rescue] Jesus [were also there]. When they [felt] the earthquake and saw all the [other] things that happened, they were terrified. They exclaimed, “Truly he was both man and God! (OR, a Son of God).”
55 A bijahu ondje i izdaleka promatrahu mnoge žene što su iz Galileje išle za Isusom poslužujući mu;
Many women were there, watching from a distance. They were women who had accompanied Jesus from Galilee [district] in order to provide the things he needed.
56 među njima Marija Magdalena i Marija, Jakovljeva i Josipova majka, i majka sinova Zebedejevih.
Among these women were Mary from Magdala [town], [another] Mary who was the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of James and John.
57 Uvečer dođe neki bogat čovjek iz Arimateje, imenom Josip, koji i sam bijaše učenik Isusov.
When it was [almost] evening, a rich man named Joseph came [there]. He was from Arimathea [town]. He also was a disciple of Jesus.
58 On pristupi Pilatu i zaiska tijelo Isusovo. Tada Pilat zapovjedi da mu se dadne.
He then went to Pilate and asked Pilate to [allow him to take] the body of Jesus [and bury it]. Pilate ordered that [he] be allowed to {[his soldiers] let [Joseph]} take [the body].
59 Josip uze tijelo, povi ga u čisto platno
So Joseph [and others] took the body and wrapped it in a clean white cloth.
60 i položi u svoj novi grob koji bijaše isklesao u stijeni. Dokotrlja velik kamen na grobna vrata i otiđe.
Then they placed it in Joseph’s own new tomb that had been dug out of the rock [cliff]. They rolled a huge [circular flat] stone in front of the entrance to the tomb. Then they left.
61 A bijahu ondje Marija Magdalena i druga Marija: sjedile su nasuprot grobu.
Mary from Magdala and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb, [watching].
62 Sutradan, to jest dan nakon Priprave, sabraše se glavari svećenički i farizeji kod Pilata
The next day was Saturday, the Jewish day of rest. The chief priests and [some of] the Pharisees went to Pilate.
63 te mu rekoše: “Gospodaru, sjetismo se da onaj varalica još za života kaza: 'Nakon tri dana uskrsnut ću.'
They said, “Sir, we remember that while that deceiver was still alive, he said, ‘Three days after I [die I] will become alive again.’
64 Zapovjedi dakle da se grob osigura sve do trećega dana da ne bi možda došli njegovi učenici, ukrali ga pa rekli narodu: 'Uskrsnuo je od mrtvih!' I bit će posljednja prijevara gora od prve.”
So we ask you to order that the tomb be guarded {that [soldiers] guard the tomb} for three days. If you do not do that, his disciples may come and steal the body. Then they will tell people that he has risen from the dead. If they deceive [people by saying that], it will be worse than the way he deceived people before [by saying that he was the Messiah].”
65 Reče im Pilat: “Imate stražu! Idite i osigurajte kako znate!”
Pilate replied, “You [can] take some soldiers. Go to the tomb and make it as secure as you know how.”
66 Nato oni odu i osiguraju grob: zapečate kamen i postave stražu.
So they went and made the tomb secure by [fastening a cord from] the stone [that was in front of the entrance to the rock cliff on each side] and sealing it. They also [left some soldiers there to] guard [the tomb].
