Luke 17
1 [One day Jesus] said to his disciples, “Things that will tempt [people] to sin are certain to happen, but it will be terrible for anyone who causes them to happen!
A uèenicima reèe: nije moguæe da ne doðu sablazni; ali teško onome s koga dolaze;
2 Suppose you caused one of these people who [do not believe in me very strongly] to sin. If a huge stone was fastened {someone fastened a huge stone} around your neck and you were thrown {and threw you} into the sea, [you would consider that a severe punishment, but God will punish] you even more severely [if you cause someone to sin!]
Bolje bi mu bilo da mu se vodenièni kamen objesi o vratu, i da ga bace u more, nego da sablazni jednoga od ovijeh malijeh.
3 Be careful [how you act]. If you [know about] a fellow believer who sins, you [(sg)] should rebuke him. If he [says that he] is sorry for having sinned [and asks you to forgive him], forgive him.
Èuvajte se. Ako ti sagriješi brat tvoj, nakaraj ga; pa ako se pokaje, oprosti mu.
4 Even if he sins against you [(sg)] seven times in one day, if he comes to you each time and says, ‘I am sorry for what I did’, you must continue forgiving him.”
I ako ti sedam puta na dan sagriješi, i sedam puta na dan doðe k tebi i reèe: kajem se, oprosti mu.
5 [One day] the apostles said to the Lord, “Help us to trust [in you] (OR, [in God]) more strongly!”
I rekoše apostoli Gospodu: dometni nam vjere.
6 The Lord replied, “Mustard [seeds are very small, but in this area they grow and produce large] [MET] [plants]. [Similarly], if your faith grows until you truly believe that God [will do what you ask him to, you will be able to do anything]. You could [even] say to this mulberry tree, ‘Pull yourself out [with your roots] and plant yourself in the sea!’ and it would obey you!”
A Gospod reèe: kad biste imali vjere koliko zrno gorušièno, i rekli biste ovome dubu: išèupaj se i usadi se u more, i poslušao bi vas.
7 [Jesus also said], “Suppose that one of you had a servant who was plowing [your fields] or taking care of your sheep. After he comes into the house from the field, you [(sg)] would not say [RHQ], ‘Sit down and eat immediately!’
Koji pak od vas kad ima slugu koji ore ili èuva stoku pa kad doðe iz polja, reèe mu: hodi brzo i sjedi za trpezu?
8 Instead, you would say to him, ‘Put on your apron and prepare a meal for me! Then serve it to me so that I can eat and drink! Afterwards you [(sg)] can eat and drink.’
Nego ne kaže li mu: ugotovi mi da veèeram, i zapregni se te mi služi dok jedem i pijem, pa onda i ti jedi i pij?
9 (You will not thank your servant for doing the work that he had been told {you had told him} to do!/Would you thank your servant because he did the work that he had been told {you had told him} to do?) [RHQ]
Eda li æe on zahvaliti sluzi tome kad svrši što mu se zapovjedi? Ne vjerujem.
10 Similarly, when you [(pl)] have done everything that [God] has told you to do, you should say, ‘We [(inc)] are not worthy [of God thanking us] {[being thanked]}. We are only God’s servants. We have only done the things that he told us to do.’”
Tako i vi kad svršite sve što vam je zapovjeðeno, govorite: mi smo zaludne sluge, jer uèinismo što smo bili dužni èiniti.
11 As [Jesus and his disciples] were walking along the road to Jerusalem, they were going through [the region] between Samaria and Galilee [districts].
I kad iðaše u Jerusalim, on prolažaše izmeðu Samarije i Galileje.
12 As they entered one village, ten lepers came near the road. [Because lepers were not permitted to come near other people], they stood at some distance
I kad ulažaše u jedno selo sretoše ga deset gubavijeh ljudi, koji staše izdaleka,
13 and called out, “Jesus, Master, pity us [and heal us]!”
I podigoše glas govoreæi: Isuse uèitelju! pomiluj nas.
14 When he saw them, he said [to them], “Each of you should go and show yourself to a priest [in Jerusalem so that he can see if you are healed].” As they were going [there], they were healed.
I vidjevši ih reèe im: idite i pokažite se sveštenicima. I oni iduæi oèistiše se.
15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God loudly.
A jedan od njih vidjevši da se iscijeli povrati se hvaleæi Boga iza glasa,
16 He [came to Jesus], prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet, and thanked him. This man was a Samaritan, [not a Jew].
I pade nièice pred noge njegove, i zahvali mu. I to bješe Samarjanin.
17 Then Jesus said, “[I] healed ten [lepers] (I am disappointed that the other nine did not come back!/Where are the other nine?) [RHQ]
A Isus odgovarajuæi reèe: ne iscijeliše li se desetorica? Gdje su dakle devetorica?
18 I am disappointed [RHQ] that this non-Jewish man was the only one who returned to thank God; none of the others came back to me!”
Kako se meðu njima koji ne naðe da se vrati da zahvali Bogu, nego sam ovaj tuðin?
19 Then he said to the man, “Get up and continue on your journey. [God] [PRS] [has saved you and] healed you [(sg)] because you trusted [in me].”
I reèe mu: ustani, idi; vjera tvoja pomože ti.
20 [One day] Jesus was asked by [some] Pharisees [SYN] {[some] Pharisees [SYN] asked [Jesus]}, “When is God [going] to rule as king?” He replied, “God’s ruling [MET] is not something people will be able to see with their eyes.
A kad ga upitaše fariseji: kad æe doæi carstvo Božije? odgovarajuæi reèe im: carstvo Božije neæe doæi da se vidi;
21 And people will not be able to say, ‘Look! He is [ruling] here!’ Or ‘He is [ruling] over there!’ because, [contrary to what you think], God’s ruling is people’s inner beings (OR, is already happening among you).”
Niti æe se kazati: evo ga ovdje ili ondje; jer gle, carstvo je Božije unutra u vama.
22 [Jesus] said to his disciples, “There will be a time when you will want to see [me] [MTY], the one who came from heaven, [ruling powerfully]. But you will not see that.
A uèenicima reèe: doæi æe vrijeme kad æete zaželjeti da vidite jedan dan sina èovjeèijega, i neæete vidjeti.
23 [Some] people will say to you, ‘Look, [the Messiah] is over there!’ or [they will say] ‘Look, he is here!’ When they say that, do not believe them. Do not follow them [to go see the Messiah].
I reæi æe vam: evo ovdje je, ili: eno ondje; ali ne izlazite, niti tražite.
24 Because when the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, [everyone can see it. Similarly] [SIM], at the time [MTY] when [I], the one who came from heaven, come back again, [everyone will see me].
Jer kako što munja sine s neba, i zasvijetli se preko svega što je pod nebom, tako æe biti i sin èovjeèij u svoj dan.
25 But before that happens, I must suffer in many ways (OR, very much). And I will be rejected by people {people will reject me}, [even though] they [have observed me doing good for people].
Ali mu najprije treba mnogo postradati, i okrivljenu biti od roda ovoga.
26 But when [I], the one who came from heaven, [come again, people] will be doing things just like people were doing at the time when [MTY] Noah [lived].
I kako je bilo u vrijeme Nojevo onako æe biti u dane sina èovjeèijega:
27 [At that time] people ate and drank [as usual], and they got married [as usual], up until the day when Noah [and his family] entered the big boat. But then the flood came and destroyed all those [who were not in the boat].
Jeðahu, pijahu, ženjahu se, udavahu se do onoga dana kad Noje uðe u kovèeg, i doðe potop i pogubi sve.
28 Similarly, when Lot lived [in Sodom city], people [there] ate and drank [as usual]. They bought things and they sold things. They planted [crops] and they built [houses as usual].
Tako kao što bi u dane Lotove: jeðahu, pijahu, kupovahu, prodavahu, saðahu, zidahu;
29 But on the day that Lot [and his family] left Sodom, fire and [burning] sulfur came down from the sky and destroyed all those [who stayed in the city].
A u dan kad iziðe Lot iz Sodoma, udari oganj i sumpor iz neba i pogubi sve.
30 Similarly, when [I], the one who came from heaven, return to earth, [people will be unprepared] (OR, [enjoying normal life]).
Tako æe biti i u onaj dan kad æe se javiti sin èovjeèij.
31 On that day, those who are outside their houses, with all the things that they own inside [the houses], must not go [in] to take them away, [because there will not be enough time to do that]. Similarly, those who are working in a field must not go back home [to get anything]; [they must flee immediately].
U onaj dan koji se desi na krovu a pokuæstvo njegovo u kuæi, neka ne silazi da ga uzme; i koji se desi u polju, tako neka se ne vraæa natrag.
32 Remember Lot’s wife! [Because she turned back and wanted to get some of her things from Sodom, she died immediately and became a pillar of salt].
Opominjite se žene Lotove.
33 Anyone who wants to hold onto his life [and his possessions] will not [receive eternal] life. But anyone who is [willing to] die [for my sake] will live [eternally].
Koji poðe da saèuva dušu svoju, izgubiæe je; a koji je izgubi, oživljeæe je.
34 I tell you this: On the night [when I return], there will be two people [sleeping] in one bed. The one [who believes in me] will be taken {[God] will take the one [who believes in me]} [to heaven], and the other one will be left [behind and punished] {and [he] will leave the other one [behind and punish him]}.
Kažem vam: u onu noæ biæe dva na jednome odru, jedan æe se uzeti a drugi æe se ostaviti;
35 Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left {[God] will take one and leave the other} [behind].”
Dvije æe mljeti zajedno, jedna æe se uzeti a druga æe se ostaviti;
Dva æe biti na njivi, jedan æe se uzeti a drugi æe se ostaviti.
37 [His disciples] said to him, “Lord, where [will this happen]?” He replied to them, “Wherever there is an animal carcass, the vultures will gather [to eat it] [MET]. [Similarly, wherever there are people who are spiritually dead, God will punish them].”
I odgovarajuæi rekoše mu: gdje, Gospode? A on im reèe: gdje je strvina onamo æe se i orlovi skupiti.
