Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Yeshua Meshikha, according to the faith of God's chosen ones, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
Od Pavla, sluge Božijega, a apostola Isusa Hrista po vjeri izbranijeh Božijih, i po poznanju istine pobožnosti,
2 in hope of everlasting life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began; (aiōnios g166)
Za nad vjeènoga života, koji obeæa nelažni Bog prije vremena vjeènijeh, (aiōnios g166)
3 but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior;
A javi u vremena svoja rijeè svoju propovijedanjem, koje je meni povjereno po zapovijesti spasitelja našega Boga,
4 to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Meshikha Yeshua our Savior.
Titu, pravome sinu po vjeri nas obojice, blagodat, milost, mir od Boga oca i Gospoda Isusa Hrista, spasa našega.
5 I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking, and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you;
Zato te ostavih u Kritu da popraviš što je nedovršeno, i da postaviš po svijem gradovima sveštenike, kao što ti ja zapovjedih,
6 if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.
Ako je ko bez mane, jedne žene muž, i ima vjernu djecu, koju ne kore za kurvarstvo ili za nepokornost.
7 For the qashisha must be blameless, as God's steward; not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain;
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 given to hospitality, as a lover of good, sober minded, fair, holy, self-controlled;
Nego gostoljubiv, blag, pošten, pravedan, svet, èist;
9 holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him.
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 rebellious people, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
Jer ima mnogo neposlušnijeh, praznogovorljivijeh, i umom prevarenijeh, a osobito koji su iz obrezanja,
11 whose mouths must be silenced; who are upsetting whole families, teaching things which they should not, for the sake of dishonest gain.
Kojima treba usta zatvoriti; koji cijele kuæe izopaèuju uèeæi što ne treba, poganoga dobitka radi.
12 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons."
A reèe neko od njih, njihov prorok: Kriæani svagda lažljivi, zli zvjerovi, besposleni trbusi.
13 This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, 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 paying attention to Jewish myths and commandments of people who reject the truth.
Ne slušajuæi Jevrejskijeh gatalica ni zapovijesti ljudi koji se odvraæaju od istine.
15 To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are 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 that they know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.
Govore da poznaju Boga, a djelima ga se odrièu; jer su mrski i neposlušni, i ni za kakvo dobro djelo valjani.
