Hebrews 7
1 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham turning back from the striking of the kings, and blessed him,
Jer ovaj Melhisedek bješe car Salimski, sveštenik Boga najvišega, koji srete Avraama kad se vraæaše s boja careva, i blagoslovi ga;
2 to whom also Abraham divided a tenth of all (first, indeed, being interpreted, “King of righteousness,” and then also, “King of Salem,” which is, King of Peace),
Kojemu i Avraam dade desetak od svega. Prvo dakle znaèi car pravde, potom i car Salimski, to jest car mira;
3 without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, and having been like the Son of God, remains a priest continually.
Bez oca, bez matere, bez roda, ne imajuæi ni poèetka danima, ni svršetka životu, a isporeðen sa sinom Božijim, i ostaje sveštenik dovijeka.
4 And see how great this one [is], to whom Abraham the patriarch also gave a tenth out of the best of the spoils,
Ali pogledajte koliki je ovaj kome je i Avraam patrijarh dao desetak od plijena.
5 and those, indeed, out of the sons of Levi receiving the priesthood, have a command to take tithes from the people according to the Law, that is, their brothers, even though they came forth out of the loins of Abraham;
Istina, i oni od sinova Levijevijeh koji primiše sveštenstvo, imaju zapovijest da uzimaju po zakonu desetak od naroda, to jest braæe svoje, ako su i izišli iz bedara Avraamovijeh.
6 and he who was not reckoned by genealogy of them, received tithes from Abraham, and he has blessed him having the promises,
Ali onaj koji se ne broji od njihova roda, uze desetak od Avraama, i blagoslovi onoga koji ima obeæanje.
7 and apart from all controversy, the less is blessed by the better—
Ali bez svakoga izgovora manje blagoslovi veæe.
8 and here, indeed, men who die receive tithes, and there [he] who is testified to that he was living,
I tako ovdje uzimaju desetak ljudi koji umiru, a onamo onaj za kojega se posvjedoèi da živi.
9 and so to speak, through Abraham even Levi who is receiving tithes, has paid tithes,
I, da ovako reèem, Levije koji uze desetak, dao je desetak kroz Avraama:
10 for he was yet in the loins of the father when Melchizedek met him.
Jer bijaše još u bedrima oèinima kad ga srete Melhisedek.
11 If indeed, then, perfection were through the Levitical priesthood—for the people under it had received law—what further need, according to the order of Melchizedek, for another priest to arise, and not to be called according to the order of Aaron?
Ako je dakle savršenstvo postalo kroz Levitsko sveštenstvo jer je narod pod njim zakon primio kaka je još potreba bila govoriti da æe drugi sveštenik postati po redu Melhisedekovu a ne po redu Aronovu?
12 For the priesthood being changed, of necessity also, a change comes of the Law,
Jer kad se promijeni sveštenstvo, mora se i zakon promijeniti.
13 for He of whom these things are said in another tribe has had part, of whom no one gave attendance at the altar,
Jer za koga se ovo govori on je od drugoga koljena, od kojega niko ne pristupi k oltaru.
14 for [it is] evident that out of Judah has arisen our Lord, in regard to which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.
Jer je poznato da Gospod naš od koljena Judina iziðe, za koje koljeno Mojsije ne govori ništa o sveštenstvu.
15 And it is yet more abundantly most evident, if according to the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another priest,
I još je više poznato da æe po redu Melhisedekovu drugi sveštenik postati,
16 who did not come according to the law of a fleshly command, but according to the power of an endless life,
Koji nije postao po zakonu tjelesne zapovijesti nego po sili života vjeènoga.
17 for He testifies, “You [are] a priest—throughout the age, according to the order of Melchizedek”; (aiōn g165)
Jer svjedoèi: ti si sveštenik vavijek po redu Melhisedekovu. (aiōn g165)
18 for an annulling indeed comes of the command going before because of its weakness, and unprofitableness
Tako se ukida preðašnja zapovijest, što bi slaba i zaludna.
19 (for nothing did the Law perfect), and the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
Jer zakon nije ništa savršio; a postavi bolji nad, kroz koji se približujemo k Bogu.
20 And inasmuch as [it is] not apart from oath
I još ne bez zakletve;
21 (for those indeed apart from oath have become priests, and He [became priest] with an oath through Him who is saying to Him, “The LORD swore, and will not regret, You [are] a priest throughout the age, according to the order of Melchizedek”), (aiōn g165)
Jer oni bez zakletve postaše sveštenici; a ovaj sa zakletvom kroz onoga koji mu govori: zakle se Gospod i neæe se raskajati: ti si sveštenik vavijek po redu Melhisedekovu. (aiōn g165)
22 by so much also has Jesus become guarantee of a better covenant,
Toliko boljega zavjeta posta Isus jamac.
23 and those indeed are many who have become priests, because by death they are hindered from remaining;
I oni mnogi biše sveštenici, jer im smrt ne dade da ostanu.
A ovaj, buduæi da ostaje vavijek, ima vjeèno sveštenstvo. (aiōn g165)
25 from where also He is able to save to the very end, those coming through Him to God—ever living to make intercession for them.
Zato i može vavijek spasti one koji kroza nj dolaze k Bogu, kad svagda živi da se može moliti za njih.
26 For also such a Chief Priest was fitting for us—holy, innocent, undefiled, separate from the sinners, and having become higher than the heavens,
Jer takov nama trebaše poglavar sveštenièki: svet, bezazlen, èist, odvojen od grješnika, i koji je bio više nebesa;
27 who has no daily necessity, as the chief priests, to first offer up sacrifice for His own sins, then for those of the people; for this He did once, having offered up Himself;
Kojemu nije potrebno svaki dan, kao sveštenicima, najprije za svoje grijehe žrtve prinositi, a potom za narodne, jer on ovo uèini jednom, kad sebe prinese.
28 for the Law appoints men [as] chief priests, having weakness, but the word of the oath that [is] after the Law [appoints] the Son having been perfected throughout the age. (aiōn g165)
Jer zakon postavlja ljude za sveštenike koji imaju slabost; a rijeè zakletve koja je reèena po zakonu, postavi sina vavijek savršena. (aiōn g165)
