Matthew 11
1 When Jesus had made an end of instructing his twelve disciples, he departed thence, to teach and give warning in the cities.
I kad svrši Isus zapovijesti dvanaestorici uèenika svojijeh, otide odande dalje da uèi i da propovijeda po gradovima njihovijem.
2 Now John, having heard in prison of the works of the Messiah, sent two of his disciples,
A Jovan èuvši u tamnici djela Hristova posla dvojicu uèenika svojijeh,
3 who asked him, Are you he that comes, or must we expect another?
I reèe mu: jesi li ti onaj što æe doæi, ili drugoga da èekamo?
4 Jesus answering, said to them, Go, and relate to John, what you have heard and seen.
A Isus odgovarajuæi reèe im: idite i kažite Jovanu što èujete i vidite:
5 The blind are made to see, the lame to walk; lepers are cleansed; the deaf hear; the dead are raised; and good news is brought to the poor;
Slijepi progledaju i hromi hode, gubavi èiste se i gluhi èuju, mrtvi ustaju i siromašnima propovijeda se jevanðelje.
6 and happy is he, to whom I shall not prove a stumbling block.
I blago onome koji se ne sablazni o mene.
7 When they were departed, Jesus said to the people concerning John, What did you go out into the wilderness to behold? A reed shaken by the wind?
A kad ovi otidoše, poèe Isus ljudima govoriti o Jovanu: šta ste izišli u pustinji da vidite? Trsku, koju ljulja vjetar?
8 But what did you go out to see? A man effeminately dressed? It is king's palaces that such frequent.
Ili šta ste izišli da vidite? Èovjeka u meke haljine obuèena? Eto, koji meke haljine nose po carskijem su dvorovima.
9 What did you go to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and something superior to a prophet:
Ili šta ste izišli da vidite? Proroka? Da, ja vam kažem, i više od proroka.
10 for this is he, concerning whom it is written, "Behold I will send my angel before you, who shall prepare your way."
Jer je ovo onaj za koga je pisano: eto, ja šaljem anðela svojega pred licem tvojijem, koji æe pripraviti put tvoj pred tobom.
11 Indeed, I say to you, among those that are born of women, there has not arisen a greater than John the Immerser. Yet the least in the Reign of Heaven is greater than he.
Zaista vam kažem: nijedan izmeðu roðenijeh od žena nije izišao veæi od Jovana krstitelja; a najmanji u carstvu nebeskome veæi je od njega.
12 From the first appearing of John the Immerser until now, the kingdom of heaven is invaded, and invaders take possession by force.
A od vremena Jovana krstitelja dosad carstvo nebesko na silu se uzima, i siledžije dobijaju ga.
13 For till John appeared, all the prophets and the law were your instructions:
Jer su svi proroci i zakon proricali do Jovana.
14 and, if you will bear to be told it, this is the Elijah that was to come.
I ako hoæete vjerovati, on je Ilija što æe doæi.
15 Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.
Koji ima uši da èuje neka èuje.
16 But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like boys in the market places, to whom their playfellows complain,
Ali kakav æu kazati da je ovaj rod? On je kao djeca koja sjede po ulicama i vièu svojijem drugovima,
17 saying, We have played to you upon the pipe, but you have not danced; we have sung mournful songs to you, but you have not lamented.
I govore: svirasmo vam, i ne igraste; žalismo vam se, i ne jaukaste.
18 For John came abstaining from meat and drink, and they say, He has a demon;
Jer Jovan doðe, koji ni jede ni pije, a oni kažu: ðavo je u njemu.
19 the Son of Man came using meat and drink, and they say, He is a lover of banquets and wine, a companion of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified by her children.
Doðe sin èovjeèij, koji i jede i pije, a oni kažu: gle èovjeka izjelice i pijanice, druga carinicima i grješnicima. I opravdaše premudrost djeca njezina.
20 Then he began to reproach the cities, in which most of his miracles had been performed, because they reformed not.
Tada poèe Isus vikati na gradove u kojima su se dogodila najveæa èudesa njegova, pa se nijesu pokajali:
21 Alas for thee, Chorazin! Alas for thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles which have been performed in you, had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they had reformed long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
Teško tebi, Horazine! Teško tebi, Vitsaido! Jer da su u Tiru i Sidonu bila èudesa koja su bila u vama, davno bi se u vreæi i pepelu pokajali.
22 Know, therefore, that the condition of Tyre and Sidon, on the day of judgment, shall be more tolerable than yours.
Ali vam kažem: Tiru i Sidonu lakše æe biti u dan strašnoga suda nego vama.
23 And thou, Capernaum, which hast been exalted to heaven, shalt be brought down to Hades; for, if the miracles which have been performed in thee, had been performed in Sodom, it had remained till now. (Hadēs g86)
I ti, Kapernaume! koji si se do nebesa podigao do pakla æeš propasti: jer da su u Sodomu bila èudesa što su u tebi bila, ostao bi do današnjeg dana. (Hadēs g86)
24 Know, therefore, that the condition of Sodom, on the day of judgment, shall be more tolerable than thine.
Ali vam kažem da æe zemlji Sodomskoj lakše biti u dan strašnoga suda nego tebi.
25 On that occasion Jesus said, I adore thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because, having concealed these things from sages and the learned, thou hast revealed them to babes:
U to vrijeme odgovori Isus, i reèe: hvalim te, oèe, Gospode neba i zemlje, što si ovo sakrio od premudrijeh i razumnijeh a kazao si prostima.
26 yes, Father, because such is thy pleasure.
Da, oèe, jer je tako bila volja tvoja.
27 My Father has imparted everything to me; and no one knows the Son, except the Father; neither knows any one the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
Sve je meni predao otac moj, i niko ne zna sina do otac; niti oca ko zna do sin i ako kome sin hoæe kazati.
28 Come to me, all you who toil and are burdened, and I will give you rest.
Hodite k meni svi koji ste umorni i natovareni, i ja æu vas odmoriti.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and be taught by me; for I am meek and condescending: and your souls shall find relief.
Uzmite jaram moj na sebe, i nauèite se od mene; jer sam ja krotak i smjeran u srcu, i naæi æete pokoj dušama svojijem.
30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
Jer je jaram moj blag, i breme je moje lako.
