Titus 1
1 Paul, bondman of God, and apostle of Jesus Christ according to [the] faith of God's elect, and knowledge of [the] truth which [is] according to piety;
Od Pavla, sluge Božijega, a apostola Isusa Hrista po vjeri izbranijeh Božijih, i po poznanju istine pobožnosti,
2 in [the] hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before the ages of time, (aiōnios g166)
Za nad vjeènoga života, koji obeæa nelažni Bog prije vremena vjeènijeh, (aiōnios g166)
3 but has manifested in its own due season his word, in [the] proclamation with which I have been entrusted, according to [the] commandment of our Saviour God;
A javi u vremena svoja rijeè svoju propovijedanjem, koje je meni povjereno po zapovijesti spasitelja našega Boga,
4 to Titus, my own child according to [the] faith common [to us]: Grace and peace from God [the] Father, and Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Titu, pravome sinu po vjeri nas obojice, blagodat, milost, mir od Boga oca i Gospoda Isusa Hrista, spasa našega.
5 For this cause I left thee in Crete, that thou mightest go on to set right what remained [unordered], and establish elders in each city, as I had ordered thee:
Zato te ostavih u Kritu da popraviš što je nedovršeno, i da postaviš po svijem gradovima sveštenike, kao što ti ja zapovjedih,
6 if any one be free from all charge [against him], husband of one wife, having believing children not accused of excess or unruly.
Ako je ko bez mane, jedne žene muž, i ima vjernu djecu, koju ne kore za kurvarstvo ili za nepokornost.
7 For the overseer must be free from all charge [against him] as God's steward; not headstrong, not passionate, not disorderly through wine, not a striker, not seeking gain by base means;
Jer vladika treba da je bez mane, kao Božij pristav; ne koji sebi ugaða, ne gnjevljiv, ne pijanica, ne bojac, ne lakom na pogani dobitak;
8 but hospitable, a lover of goodness, discreet, just, pious, temperate,
Nego gostoljubiv, blag, pošten, pravedan, svet, èist;
9 clinging to the faithful word according to the doctrine taught, that he may be able both to encourage with sound teaching and refute gainsayers.
Koji se drži vjerne rijeèi po nauci, da bude kadar i svjetovati sa zdravom naukom, i pokarati one koji se protive.
10 For there are many and disorderly vain speakers and deceivers of people's minds, specially those of [the] circumcision,
Jer ima mnogo neposlušnijeh, praznogovorljivijeh, i umom prevarenijeh, a osobito koji su iz obrezanja,
11 who must have their mouths stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which ought not [to be taught] for the sake of base gain.
Kojima treba usta zatvoriti; koji cijele kuæe izopaèuju uèeæi što ne treba, poganoga dobitka radi.
12 One of themselves, a prophet of their own, has said, Cretans are always liars, evil wild beasts, lazy gluttons.
A reèe neko od njih, njihov prorok: Kriæani svagda lažljivi, zli zvjerovi, besposleni trbusi.
13 This testimony is true; for which cause rebuke them severely, that they may be sound in the faith,
Svjedoèanstvo je ovo istinito; zaradi toga uzroka karaj ih bez šteðenja, da budu zdravi u vjeri,
14 not turning [their] minds to Jewish fables and commandments of men turning away from the truth.
Ne slušajuæi Jevrejskijeh gatalica ni zapovijesti ljudi koji se odvraæaju od istine.
15 All things [are] pure to the pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving nothing [is] pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.
Èistima je sve èisto; a poganima i nevjernima ništa nije èisto, nego je opoganjen njihov i um i savjest.
16 They profess to know God, but in works deny [him], being abominable, and disobedient, and found worthless as to every good work.
Govore da poznaju Boga, a djelima ga se odrièu; jer su mrski i neposlušni, i ni za kakvo dobro djelo valjani.
