Matej 8
1 Kad je Isus sišao s gore, pohrli za njim silan svijet.
When Jesus came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him.
2 I gle, pristupi neki gubavac, pokloni mu se do zemlje i reče: “Gospodine, ako hoćeš, možeš me očistiti.”
Suddenly a leper came and knelt before Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
3 Isus pruži ruku i dotakne ga se govoreći: “Hoću, očisti se!” I odmah se očisti od gube.
Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 Kaže mu Isus: “Pazi, nikomu ne kazuj, nego idi, pokaži se svećeniku i prinesi dar što ga propisa Mojsije, njima za svjedočanstvo.”
Then Jesus instructed him, “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift prescribed by Moses, as a testimony to them.”
5 Kad uđe u Kafarnaum, pristupi mu satnik pa ga zamoli:
When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came and pleaded with Him,
6 “Gospodine, sluga mi leži kod kuće uzet, u strašnim mukama.”
“Lord, my servant lies at home, paralyzed and in terrible agony.”
7 Kaže mu: “Ja ću doći izliječiti ga.”
“I will go and heal him,” Jesus replied.
8 Odgovori satnik: “Gospodine, nisam dostojan da uđeš pod krov moj, nego samo reci riječ i izliječen će biti sluga moj.
The centurion answered, “Lord, I am not worthy to have You come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
9 Ta i ja, premda sam čovjek pod vlašću, imam pod sobom vojnike pa reknem jednomu: 'Idi!' - i ode, drugomu: 'Dođi!' - i dođe, a sluzi svomu: 'Učini to' - i učini.”
For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes; and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”
10 Čuvši to, zadivi se Isus i reče onima koji su išli za njim: “Zaista, kažem vam, ni u koga u Izraelu ne nađoh tolike vjere.
When Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those following Him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.
11 A kažem vam: Mnogi će s istoka i zapada doći i sjesti za stol s Abrahamom, Izakom i Jakovom u kraljevstvu nebeskom,
I say to you that many will come from the east and the west to share the banquet with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.
12 a sinovi će kraljevstva biti izbačeni van u tamu. Ondje će biti plač i škrgut zubi.”
But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13 I reče Isus satniku: “Idi, neka ti bude kako si vjerovao!” I ozdravi sluga u taj čas.
Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! As you have believed, so will it be done for you.” And his servant was healed at that very hour.
14 Ušavši u kuću Petrovu, Isus ugleda njegovu punicu koja ležaše u ognjici.
When Jesus arrived at Peter’s house, He saw Peter’s mother-in-law sick in bed with a fever.
15 Dotače joj se ruke i pusti je ognjica. Ona ustade i posluživaše mu.
So He touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she got up and began to serve them.
16 A uvečer mu doniješe mnoge opsjednute. On izagna duhove riječju i sve bolesnike ozdravi -
When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to Jesus, and He drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick.
17 da se ispuni što je rečeno po Izaiji proroku: On slabosti naše uze i boli ponese.
This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: “He took on our infirmities and carried our diseases.”
18 Kad Isus vidje mnoštvo oko sebe, zapovjedi da se prijeđe prijeko.
When Jesus saw a large crowd around Him, He gave orders to cross to the other side of the sea.
19 I pristupi jedan pismoznanac te mu reče: “Učitelju, za tobom ću kamo god ti pošao.”
And one of the scribes came to Him and said, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.”
20 Kaže mu Isus: “Lisice imaju jazbine i ptice nebeske gnijezda, a Sin Čovječji nema gdje bi glavu naslonio.”
Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head.”
21 Drugi mu od učenika reče: “Gospodine, dopusti mi da prije odem i pokopam svoga oca.”
Another of His disciples requested, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
22 Isus mu kaže: “Hajde za mnom i pusti neka mrtvi pokapaju svoje mrtve.”
But Jesus told him, “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
23 Kad uđe u lađu, pođoše za njim njegovi učenici.
When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him.
24 I gle, žestok vihor nasta na moru tako da lađu prekrivahu valovi. A on je spavao.
Suddenly a violent storm came up on the sea, so that the boat was engulfed by the waves; but Jesus was sleeping.
25 Oni pristupiše i probudiše ga govoreći: “Gospodine, spasi, pogibosmo!”
The disciples went and woke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”
26 Kaže im: “Što ste plašljivi, malovjerni?” Tada ustade i zaprijeti vjetrovima i moru te nasta velika utiha.
“You of little faith,” Jesus replied, “why are you so afraid?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was perfectly calm.
27 A ljudi su u čudu pitali: “Tko je taj da mu se i vjetrovi i more pokoravaju?”
The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey Him!”
28 I kada dođe prijeko, u gadarski kraj, eto mu u susret dvaju opsjednutih: izlazili su iz grobnica, silno goropadni, te nitko nije mogao proći onim putem.
When Jesus arrived on the other side in the region of the Gadarenes, He was met by two demon-possessed men coming from the tombs. They were so violent that no one could pass that way.
29 I gle, povikaše: “Što ti imaš s nama, Sine Božji? Došao si ovamo prije vremena mučiti nas?”
“What do You want with us, Son of God?” they shouted. “Have You come here to torture us before the appointed time?”
30 A podalje od njih paslo je veliko krdo svinja.
In the distance a large herd of pigs was feeding.
31 Zlodusi ga zaklinjahu: “Ako nas istjeraš, pošalji nas u ovo krdo svinja.”
So the demons begged Jesus, “If You drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”
32 On im reče: “Idite!” Oni iziđoše i uđoše u svinje. I gle, sve krdo jurnu niz obronak u more i podavi se u vodama.
“Go!” He told them. So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and died in the waters.
33 A svinjari pobjegoše, odoše u grad te razglasiše sve, napose o opsjednutima.
Those tending the pigs ran off into the town and reported all this, including the account of the demon-possessed men.
34 I gle, sav grad iziđe u susret Isusu. Kad ga ugledaše, zamole ga da ode iz njihova kraja.
Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged Him to leave their region.
