Acts 14
1 At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish meeting place and spoke very convincingly [about the Lord Jesus]. As a result, many Jews and also non-Jews believed [in Jesus].
U Ikoniji pak dogodi se da oni zajedno uðoše u zbornicu Jevrejsku, i govorahu tako da vjerova veliko mnoštvo Jevreja i Grka.
2 But [some of] the Jews refused to believe [that message, and] told the non-Jews not to believe it. They told the non-Jewish people that the message [about Jesus] was not true. As a result, [some of] the non-Jews became angry towards the believers [there].
A Jevreji koji ne vjerovahu podbuniše i razdražiše duše neznabožaca na braæu.
3 So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there speaking boldly for the Lord, and the Lord Jesus enabled them to do many miracles. In this way he showed [people] that the message about how the Lord saves us in a way that we do not deserve is true.
Ali oni ostaše dosta vremena govoreæi slobodno u Gospodu koji svjedoèaše rijeè blagodati svoje i davaše te se tvorahu znaci i èudesa rukama njihovijem.
4 The people [who lived] in [Iconium] city strongly disagreed with each other [concerning the message about Jesus]. Some of them agreed with the Jews [SYN] [who did not believe that message]. Others agreed with Paul and Barnabas.
A mnoštvo gradsko razdijeli se, i jedni bijahu s Jevrejima, a jedni s apostolima.
5 Then the non-Jewish people and the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] [who opposed those two] talked among themselves about how they could mistreat them. Some of the important men in that city agreed to help them. Together, they decided that they would [kill Paul and Barnabas by] throwing stones at them.
A kad navališe i neznabošci i Jevreji sa svojijem poglavarima da im dosade i kamenjem da ih pobiju,
6 But Paul and Barnabas heard about that, so they quickly went away to Lycaonia [district. They went] to Lystra and Derbe [cities in that district] and to the area surrounding [those cities].
Oni doznavši pobjegoše u gradove Likaonske, u Listru i u Dervu i u okolinu njihovu.
7 [While they were] in that area, they continually told people the message [about the Lord Jesus].
I onamo propovijedahu jevanðelje.
8 [Once while Paul was preaching to people] in Lystra, a man was sitting there who was crippled in his legs. When [his mother] bore him he had crippled legs, so he was never able to walk.
I jedan èovjek u Listri sjeðaše nemoæan u nogama, i bješe hrom od utrobe matere svoje, i ne bješe nikad hodio.
9 He listened as Paul was speaking [about the Lord Jesus]. Paul looked directly at him and could see [in the man’s face] that he believed that [the Lord Jesus] could make him well.
Ovaj slušaše Pavla gdje govori. Pavle pogledavši na nj i vidjevši da vjeruje da æe ozdraviti,
10 So Paul called out [to him], “Stand up!” [When the man heard that], he [immediately] jumped up and began to walk [normally].
Reèe velikijem glasom: tebi govorim u ime Gospoda Isusa Hrista, ustani na svoje noge upravo. I skoèi, i hoðaše.
11 When the crowd saw what Paul had done, [they thought that Paul and Barnabas] [were/must be]) [the gods that they worshipped]. So they shouted [excitedly] in their [own] Lycaonia language, “[Look! These people are] the gods [that we(inc) worship! They] made themselves look like people and have come down [from the sky/heaven to help us]!”
A kad vidje narod šta uèini Pavle, podigoše glas svoj govoreæi Likaonski: bogovi naèiniše se kao ljudi, i siðoše k nama.
12 They began to say that Barnabas was [probably the chief god, whose name was]. And [they began to say that] Paul was Hermes, [the messenger/spokesman for the other gods. They mistakenly thought that] because Paul was the one who had been speaking.
I nazivahu Varnavu Jupiterom, a Pavla Merkurijem, jer on upravljaše rijeèju.
13 Just outside [the gates of] the city there was a temple [where the people worshipped Zeus. The priest who was there heard what Paul and Barnabas had done, so he came] to the city gate, where many people had already gathered. He brought [two] bulls with wreaths [of flowers around their necks]. The priest and the other people wanted to kill the bulls [as part of a ceremony] to worship Paul and Barnabas.
A sveštenik Jupitera koji bješe pred gradom njihovijem dovede junce, i donese vijence pred vrata, i s narodom šæadijaše da prinosi žrtvu.
14 But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard about that, [and understood that the people thought that they were gods and wanted to sacrifice the bulls to worship them], they [were very distressed], so they tore their own clothes. They rushed among the people, shouting,
A kad èuše apostoli, Varnava i Pavle, razdriješe haljine svoje, i skoèiše meðu narod vièuæi i govoreæi:
15 “Men, (you must not kill those bulls [to worship us(dl)!]/why are you doing this?) [RHQ] [We are not gods]! We are just human beings like you! We have come to tell you some good news! [We have come to tell you about] God who is all-powerful. He wants you to stop worshipping other gods, because they cannot help you. This true God made the heaven/sky and the earth and the oceans and everything in it.
Ljudi! šta to èinite? I mi smo kao i vi smrtni ljudi, koji vam propovijedamo jevanðelje da se od ovijeh lažnijeh stvari obratite k Bogu živome, koji stvori nebo i zemlju i more i sve što je u njima;
16 In the past, all of you non-Jewish people [worshipped whatever gods that you wanted to]. God let you worship them, [because you did not know him].
Koji u prošavšijem naraštajima bješe pustio sve narode da idu svojijem putovima:
17 But he has shown us [LIT] [that] he acts kindly [toward us(inc)]. He is the one who causes it to rain and causes crops to grow. He is the one who gives you plenty of food, and makes you very happy.”
I opet ne ostavi sebe neposvjedoèena, èineæi dobro, dajuæi nam s neba dažd i godine rodne, puneæi srca naša jelom i veseljem.
18 The people heard what [Paul] said, but they still thought that they should sacrifice those bulls to worship Paul and Barnabas. [But finally, the people decided not to do it].
I ovo govoreæi jedva ustaviše narod da im ne prinose žrtve, nego da ide svaki svojoj kuæi. A dok oni življahu ondje i uèahu,
19 [However], after that, some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and persuaded many of the people of Lystra [that the message Paul had been telling them] was not true. The people [who believed what those Jews said became angry with Paul. They let the Jews] throw stones at him [until he fell down, unconscious]. They [all] thought that he was dead, so they dragged him outside the city [and left him lying there]. But some of the believers [in Lystra had followed them outside the city].
Doðoše iz Antiohije i iz Ikonije nekaki Jevreji, i kad se oni prepirahu slobodno, podgovoriše narod da ih odustanu, govoreæi da ništa pravo ne govore, nego sve lažu. I podgovorivši narod zasuše Pavla kamenjem i izvukoše ga iz grada misleæi da je mrtav.
20 They came and stood around Paul, [where he was lying on the ground]. And Paul [became conscious! He] stood up and went back into the city [with the believers]. Acts 14:20b-23 The next day, Paul and Barnabas [left Lystra and] traveled to Derbe.
A kad ga opkoliše uèenici njegovi, ustade i uðe u grad, i sjutradan iziðe s Varnavom u Dervu.
21 They [stayed there several days and they kept telling] the people the good message [about Jesus]. Many people became believers. After that, Paul and Barnabas [started on their way back. They] went again to Lystra. [Then they went from there] to Iconium, and [then they went] to Antioch [in Pisidia province].
I propovjedivši jevanðelje gradu onome i nauèivši mnoge vratiše se u Listru i Ikoniju i Antiohiju
22 [In each city], they helped the believers [SYN] to become strong [spiritually], and they urged them to keep on trusting in [the Lord Jesus]. They told [the believers], “It is necessary that [we endure] people often persecuting us [(inc)] before we enter the place where God will rule [over us forever].”
Utvrðujuæi duše uèenika i svjetujuæi ih da ostanu u vjeri, i da nam kroz mnoge nevolje valja uæi u carstvo Božije.
23 Paul and Barnabas appointed leaders for each congregation. [And before Paul and Barnabas left each town, they gathered the believers together and spent some time] praying and (fasting/not eating any food). Then Paul and Barnabas entrusted the [leaders and other believers] to the Lord [Jesus], in whom they had believed, [in order that he would care for them].
I postavivši im starješine po svijem crkvama, i pomolivši se Bogu s postom, predadoše ih Gospodu koga vjerovaše.
24 After Paul and Barnabas had traveled through Pisidia [district], they went [south] to Pamphylia [district].
I prošavši Pisidiju doðoše u Pamfiliju.
25 [In that district], they [arrived] at Perga and preached God’s message [about the Lord Jesus to the people there. Then] they went down [to the seacoast] at Attalia.
I govorivši rijeè Gospodnju u Perzi siðoše u Ataliju.
26 There they got on a ship and went back to Antioch [in Syria province]. That was the place where Paul and Barnabas had been appointed {where [believers] had sent Paul and Barnabas} to go [to other places] and preach. [Antioch was the place where the believers] had asked God to kindly help Paul and Barnabas in the work that they had now completed.
I odande otploviše u Antiohiju, odakle bijahu predani blagodati Božijoj na djelo koje svršiše.
27 When they arrived in Antioch, they called the believers together. Then Paul and Barnabas told them all that God had helped them to do. [Specifically, they told them how God] had enabled [IDM] [many] non-Jewish people to believe [in Jesus].
A kad doðoše i sabraše crkvu, kazaše sve šta uèini Bog s njima, i kako otvori neznabošcima vrata vjere.
28 Then Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch with the [other] believers for several months.
I ostaše ondje ne malo vremena s uèenicima.
