You [boast] saying, “We have made an alliance with [the leaders of Egypt], so we will not be killed [in battles]; we will never go to the place where the dead people are.

Што рекосте: Ухватисмо веру са смрћу, и уговорисмо с гробом; кад зађе бич као поводањ, неће нас дохватити, јер од лажи начинисмо себи уточиште, и за превару заклонисмо се; (Sheol )
I will annul/destroy the agreement that you made [with the leaders of Egypt].

This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘When that great tree was cut down, [it was as though] the springs that watered it mourned for it, because I caused the plentiful water [from the springs] to dry up. I caused [the mountains in] Lebanon to become black, and all the trees there to wither. (Sheol )
Овако вели Господ Господ: У који дан сиђе у гроб, учиних жалост, покрих бездану њега ради, и уставих реке њене, и велика вода стаде, и расцвелих за њим Ливан, и сва дрвета пољска повенуше за њим. (Sheol )
I caused the people of other nations to tremble when they heard that tree fall to the ground. [They realized] that it would decay, like all people who die and are buried decay. And all the [leaders of other countries represented by] other beautiful trees in my garden in Eden and in Lebanon, were like beautiful trees [that were very proud]. They were ones which had roots that grew down deep into the [ground where there was plenty of] water. They were comforted when [the king represented by] [MET] that cedar tree was there with them in the place where the dead people are. (Sheol )
Праском падања његовог устресох народе, кад га свалих у гроб с онима који силазе у јаму; и утешише се на најдоњој страни земље сва дрвета едемска, што је најбоље и најлепше на Ливану, сва што се натапаху. (Sheol )

И они сиђоше с њим у гроб к онима што су побијени мачем, и мишица његова, и који сеђаху у хладу његовом међу народима. (Sheol )
In the place where the dead people are, mighty leaders [of other countries] will [make fun of the people of Egypt] and say, “They have come here to lie with us godless people who were killed by our enemies’ swords!”’ (Sheol )
Говориће му најхрабрији јунаци исред гроба с помоћницима његовим, који сиђоше и леже необрезани, побијени мачем. (Sheol )
They will surely [RHQ] not be buried honorably like the soldiers who have died, whose shields were buried with their corpses, whose swords were placed on their skulls in the graves. While those godless people were alive, they had caused many people in the land to be terrified, so they were punished for their sins. (Sheol )
Али не леже међу јунацима који падоше између необрезаних, који сиђоше у гроб с оружјем својим, и метнуше мачеве под главе своје, и безакоње њихово лежи на костима њиховим, ако и беху јунаци страшни на земљи живих. (Sheol )
I certainly will not [RHQ] save you from being killed and from going to the place where the dead people are. I will [RHQ] cause you to be afflicted by plagues and to die and be buried in graves. I will not be merciful [to you]. (Sheol )
Од гроба ћу их избавити, од смрти ћу их сачувати; где је, смрти, помор твој, где је, гробе, погибао твоја? Кајање ће бити сакривено од очију мојих. (Sheol )
If they dig deep pits in the ground, or if they try to climb up to the sky [in order to escape], I will reach out and grab them. (Sheol )
Да се закопају у најдоњи крај земље, оданде ће их узети рука моја; и да изађу на небо, оданде ћу их скинути; (Sheol )
Jonah said, “Yahweh, when I was greatly distressed [here], I prayed to you, and you heard what I [prayed]. When I was [about to descend way down into] the place where dead people go, you heard me when I called out [for you to help/save me]. (Sheol )
И рече: Завапих у невољи својој ка Господу, и услиши ме; из утробе гробне повиках, и Ти чу глас мој. (Sheol )
If people [trust in their wealth], they will deceive themselves, and proud people are never able to rest. [It is as though] the greedy people [of Babylonia open their mouths] as wide as the place where dead people are, and they never have enough, like [the place where] dead people go never has enough dead people [PRS]. The [armies of Babylonia] conquer many nations for themselves, and capture all their people. (Sheol )
А како вино вара, такав је човек охол, нити остаје у стану; јер раширује дух свој као гроб, и као смрт је, која се не може наситити и збира к себи све народе и скупља к себи сва племена. (Sheol )
But what I say to you is this: [If you are] angry with someone, [God] will judge you. If you say to someone, ‘[You are worthless],’ the Jewish Council will judge you.

А ја вам кажем да ће сваки који се гневи на брата свог низашта, бити крив суду; а ако ли ко рече брату свом: Рака! Биће крив скупштини; а ко рече: Будало! Биће крив паклу огњеном. (Geenna )
If because of what you see [MTY] you [are tempted to] sin, [stop looking at those things! Even if you have to] gouge out one of your eyes and throw it away [HYP] [to avoid sinning, do it!] It is good [that you not sin and] as a result [go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both of] your eyes. But it is not good [that you continue to have two eyes and sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell. (Geenna )
А ако те око твоје десно саблажњава, ископај га и баци од себе: јер ти је боље да погине један од удова твојих неголи све тело твоје да буде бачено у пакао. (Geenna )
If you are [tempted to] use one of your hands to sin [MTY], [stop using your hand. Even if you have to] cut your hand off and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good [that you do not sin and as a result you go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both] of your [hands]. But it is not good [that you sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell.” (Geenna )
И ако те десна рука твоја саблажњава, одсеци је и баци од себе: јер ти је боље да погине један од удова твојих неголи све тело твоје да буде бачено у пакао. (Geenna )
Do not be afraid of people who [are able to] kill your body [SYN] but are not able to destroy your soul. Instead, fear [God because] he is able to destroy both a [person’s] body and a [person’s] soul in hell. (Geenna )
И не бојте се оних који убијају тело, а душу не могу убити; него се бојте Оног који може и душу и тело погубити у паклу. (Geenna )
[also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city] [MTY]. (Do not [think that] you will be honored {that [God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you think that you will be honored {that [God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary, after you die, you will be sent] {[God] will send you} down into the place where [sinful people] will be punished {he will punish sinful people} [forever. God destroyed the ancient city of] Sodom [because the people who lived in that city were extremely wicked]. If I had performed in [Sodom the miracles that I performed in your city, the people there would have turned away from their wicked behavior and] their [city] [MET] would still exist now [MTY]. But you, [although I did miracles in your city, you did not turn from your wicked behavior]. (Hadēs )
И ти Капернауме! Који си се до небеса подигао до пакла ћеш пропасти: јер да су у Содому била чудеса што су у теби била, остао би до данашњег дана. (Hadēs )
[God is willing to] forgive people who criticize [me], the One who came from heaven. But I [warn you that] those who say evil things about what the Holy Spirit [does] will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive people who speak evil words about what the Holy Spirit [does]}. They will not be forgiven {[He] will not forgive them} now, and they will never be forgiven {[he] will never forgive them}.” (aiōn )
И ако ко рече реч на Сина човечијег, опростиће му се; а који рече реч на Духа Светог, неће му се опростити ни на овом свету ни на оном. (aiōn )
[Some people are like the soil that had the roots of] thorny [weeds] in it. They hear God’s message, but they desire to be rich, [so they] worry [only] about [MTY, PRS] material things. As a result, they [PRS] forget [God’s] message, and they do not do [IDM] the things that God wants them to do. (aiōn )
А посејано у трњу то је који слуша реч, но брига овог света и превара богатства загуше реч, и без рода остане. (aiōn )
The enemy who sowed the weed seeds represents the devil. The [time when the reapers will] harvest [the grain] represents the time when the world will end. The reapers represent the angels. (aiōn )
А непријатељ који га је посејао јесте ђаво; а жетва је последак овог века; а жетеоци су анђели. (aiōn )
The weeds are gathered and burned. {The reapers gather the weeds. Then they burn them.} That represents [the judging of people, which God will do] when the world will end. [It will be like this]: (aiōn )
Као што се дакле кукољ сабира, и огњем сажиже, тако ће бити на крају овог века. (aiōn )
[What they did in separating the good fish from the bad ones] is like [what will happen to people] when the world ends. The angels will come [to where God is judging people], and will separate the wicked [people] from the righteous [ones]. (aiōn )
Тако ће бити на полетку века: изићи ће анђели и одлучиће зле од праведних. (aiōn )
I will also tell you this: You are Peter, [which means rock]. [You are like] a rock. What you [and your fellow apostles teach] (OR, [what] you [do]) [will be like a foundation on which I] will create congregations of people who [believe in] me. And the demons [PRS], [who live] where the dead people who lived evil lives are, will not be able to [come and] prevent [MET] [me from doing] that.” (Hadēs )
А и ја теби кажем: ти си Петар, и на овом камену сазидаћу цркву своју, и врата паклена неће је надвладати. (Hadēs )
So, if you [are wanting to use] one of your hands or feet to sin, [stop using that hand or foot! Even if you have to] cut it off [to avoid sinning, do it] [MET]! It is good [that you not sin and] go where you will live [with God eternally, even though while you are still here on earth] you are maimed or lame and do not have a hand or a foot.

If what you see you [makes you want] to sin, [stop looking at those things! Even if you have to] gouge out one of your eyes and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good [that you not sin and] go where you will live [with God eternally, even though while you are still here on earth] you have only one eye. But it is not good that you continue to have your two eyes [and do the sinful things you want to, and as a result], you are thrown {God throws you} into hell where there is eternal fire burning.” (Geenna )

“You are hypocrites, you men who teach the [Jewish] laws and you Pharisees!

And [as a result], when one person [believes what you teach], you make that person much more deserving to go to hell than you yourselves [deserve to].” (Geenna )

[So], if you are [wanting to use one of] [MTY, PRS] [your hands to sin, stop using your hand! Even if you have to] cut your hand off and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good that you not sin and that you live eternally, [even though you lack one of] your hands [while you are here on earth].

(Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen!

[If you help them to accept my message], I will reward you [MET], [as an owner of a field] pays those who harvest the crops. Because of your work, people will gain eternal life.’ [I have been telling people God’s message. That is like] [MET] a man who plants seeds. [You will help people to accept my message. That will be like] [MET] harvesting crops. [When that happens], both you and I will rejoice. (aiōnios )
И који жње прима плату, и сабира род за живот вечни, да се радују заједно и који сеје и који жње; (aiōnios )
Listen to this carefully: Those who hear my message and believe that [God] is the one who sent me have eternal life. [God will] not (condemn them/say that he will punish them). They are no longer separated from God. Instead, they have [eternal] life. (aiōnios )

Тада Му одговори Симон Петар: Господе! Коме ћемо ићи? Ти имаш речи вечног живота. (aiōnios )
A slave is not a permanent member of a family. But a son is a member of a family forever.

What kind of man who came from heaven are you [talking about]? (OR, That’s not the [kind] of Messiah [we are expecting]!)” (aiōn )
Народ Му одговори: Ми чусмо из закона да ће Христос остати вавек; како ти говориш да се сину човечијем ваља подигнути? Ко је тај син човечији? (aiōn )
I know that [paying attention to] what he has instructed us [leads to] eternal life. So whatever I say is exactly (OR, only) what [my] Father has told me to say.” (aiōnios )

Јер нећеш оставити душу моју у паклу, нити ћеш дати да Светац Твој види труљење. (Hadēs )
David knew beforehand [what God would do], so he [was able to] say that God would cause the Messiah to live again [after he died]. He said that God would not let the Messiah remain in the place of the dead, nor let his body decay.” (Hadēs )
Предвидевши говори за васкрсење Христово да се не остави душа Његова у паклу, ни тело Његово виде труљење. (Hadēs )

Then, speaking very boldly, Paul and Barnabas said [to those Jewish leaders], “[We two] had to speak the message from God [about Jesus] to you [Jews] first [before we proclaim it to non-Jews, because God commanded us to do that. But] you are rejecting God’s message. [By doing that], you have shown that you are not worthy (to have eternal life/to live eternally [with God]).

While the non-Jewish people were listening [to those words], they began to rejoice, and they repeatedly said that the message about the Lord [Jesus] was wonderful.

А кад чуше незнабошци, радоваху се и слављаху реч Божју, и вероваху колико их беше приправљено за живот вечни. (aiōnios )
I [caused my people to know about them] long ago.” (aiōn )
Богу су позната од постања света сва дела Његова; (aiōn )
[People] cannot see what God is like. But ever since he created the world, by means of what he created he has clearly revealed what he is like. He has made clear to everyone that he has always been able to do very powerful things. [Therefore, we should recognize that] God is powerful, [completely different from all that he created]. So no one has a basis for saying, [“We never knew about God].” (aïdios )
Јер шта се на Њему не може видети, од постања света могло се познати и видети на створењима, и Његова вечна сила и божанство, да немају изговора. (aïdios )
Also, they [chose to worship] false [gods] instead (of admitting/of choosing to believe) what is true [about] God. They worshipped and served things [that God] created instead of [worshipping and serving God himself], the one who created [everything. They did this even though] he [deserves that those he created] would forever praise him. Amen!/May it be so! (aiōn )

Онима, дакле, који су трпљењем дела доброг тражили славу и част и нераспадљивост, живот вечни; (aiōnios )
He did that in order that just like people everywhere inevitably sin, [which results in their] dying [MET, PRS], people everywhere might inevitably experience God’s acting kindly towards them in a way they do not deserve [MET, PRS] by [erasing the record of their sins]. [The result is that people can] live eternally because of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for them]. (aiōnios )
Да као што царова грех за смрт, тако и благодат да царује правдом за живот вечни, кроз Исуса Христа Господа нашег. (aiōnios )
But you have been freed {[God] has freed you} from [letting the desire to] sin control you. You have become [as though you are] [MET] the slaves of God. So now the result is that God has caused you to completely belong to him and, as a result, you will live eternally. (aiōnios )
А сад опростивши се од греха, и поставши слуге Божје, имате плод свој на посвећење, а крај живот вечни. (aiōnios )
[What people receive for] sinning [is that they are] eternally separated from God. That is [like] wages that [people receive] [MET]. But what God gives us is a gift. What he gives us is that we live eternally because of [our relationship with] (OR, because [we are united to]) Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios )
Јер је плата за грех смрт, а дар Божји је живот вечни у Христу Исусу Господу нашем. (aiōnios )
It was our ancestors, [Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whom God chose to found our nation]. And, [most importantly], it was from us Israelites that the Messiah received his human nature.

(aiōn )
Којих су и оци, и од којих је Христос по телу, који је над свима, Бог благословен ва век. Амин. (aiōn )
“Or [you should not think inwardly], ‘(Someone will have to go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are!/Who will go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go down and] bring Christ up [from there to bring the message of salvation to us. You should not say that because Christ has already come down to save us, and has already become alive after he died]! (Abyssos )
Или: Ко ће сићи у бездан? То јест да изведе Христа из мртвих. (Abyssos )
God has declared and proved that all people, [both Jews and non-Jews] [MET], disobey ([him/his laws]). He has declared that because he wants to act mercifully towards us all. (eleēsē )
Јер Бог затвори све у неверство, да све помилује. (eleēsē )
God [is the one who created] all things. He is also the one who [sustains all things]. The reason that he created them was that [everything he created might praise] him. May [all people] honor him forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Јер је од Њега и кроз Њега и у Њему све. Њему слава вавек. Амин. (aiōn )
Do not let anything non-Christian determine how you should act. Instead, let God change your [way of life] by making your way of thinking new, in order that you may know what he wants you to do. That is, you will know what is good, and you will know what pleases [God], and you will know how to be all that he wants you to be. (aiōn )
И не владајте се према овоме веку, него се промените обновљењем ума свог, да бисте могли кушати које је добра и угодна и савршена воља Божија. (aiōn )
As [I] proclaim [the good message about] Jesus Christ, [I tell about God], the one who is able to strengthen you [spiritually]. I also proclaim the [truth] that was not revealed {which [God] did not reveal} in all previous ages/times (aiōnios )
А ономе који вас може утврдити по јеванђељу мом и проповедању Исуса Христа, по откривењу тајне која је била сакривена од постања света, (aiōnios )
but which has now been {which [he] has now} revealed. [I, along with others, have proclaimed] what the prophets wrote [about Christ]. We are doing what the eternal God commanded [us(exc)/me to do]. We want [people in] all ethnic groups to know [Christ] so that they can believe [in him] and obey [him]. (aiōnios )
А сад се јавила и обзнанила кроз писма пророчка, по заповести вечног Бога, за послушање вере међу свима незнабошцима, (aiōnios )
[I desire that by] Jesus Christ [enabling us, we] will forever praise the one who alone is God, who alone is [truly] wise. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Једином премудром Богу, кроз Исуса Христа, слава вавек. Амин. (aiōn )
So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn )
Где је премудри? Где је књижевник? Где је препирач овог века? Не претвори ли Бог мудрост овог света у лудост? (aiōn )
I do teach a message that people who are [spiritually] mature [consider to] be wise. But I do not teach a message that unbelievers [consider to be] wise. I also do not teach a message that unbelieving rulers in the world consider to be wise. [What they think about it does not matter], because [some day] (they will lose their power/not be ruling any more). (aiōn )
Али премудрост говоримо која је у савршенима, а не премудрост века овог ни кнезова века овог који пролазе. (aiōn )
Instead, I teach about what God planned wisely [long ago]. It is something that people did not know about previously because [God] did not reveal it previously. But God determined before he created the world that he would greatly benefit us by his wise plan. (aiōn )
Него говоримо премудрост Божију у тајности сакривену, коју одреди Бог пре света за славу нашу; (aiōn )
None of those who rule this world knew that wise plan. If they had known it, they would not have nailed our wonderful Lord to the cross. (aiōn )
Које ниједан од кнезова века овог не позна; јер да су је познали, не би Господа славе разапели. (aiōn )
Some among you think that you are wise because unbelievers thought you were wise previously. Stop deceiving yourselves. [If you really want to be wise, by accepting what God considers to be wise] you should [be willing to let unbelievers consider that you are] foolish [IRO]. (aiōn )
Нико нека се не вара: ако ко међу вама мисли да је мудар на овом свету, нека буде луд да буде мудар. (aiōn )
So if [I, Paul, think that by] eating a certain food I might cause a fellow believer to be ruined spiritually, I will never eat such food again. I do not want to cause any fellow believer (to be ruined spiritually/to stop believing in Christ). [And you should] ([do as I do/imitate my example]). (aiōn )
Зато, ако јело саблажњава брата мог, нећу јести меса довека, да не саблазним брата свог. (aiōn )
All those things [that happened to our ancestors long ago] are examples for us. [Moses] wrote those things to warn us [who are living at this time which is near the end]. We are the people for whom God has done [the things that he decided to do in] the previous periods of time. (aiōn )
Ово се пак све догађаше угледи њима, а написа се за науку нама, на које последак света дође. (aiōn )
Death [APO] will not win a victory over us. Death will not be able to hurt us. (Hadēs )
Где ти је, смрти, жалац? Где ти је, пакле, победа? (Hadēs )
[Satan, who is] the one [who rules] this world, controls the thoughts of those unbelievers. He prevents them from understanding the message about how wonderful Christ is. [They are not able to understand that] Jesus is like God [in every way]. (aiōn )
У којима бог света овог ослепи разуме неверника, да им не засветли видело јеванђеља славе Христове, који је обличје Бога, који се не види. (aiōn )
[I know that] all these troubles that [happen to us in this life are] not significant and will not last forever. [When we think of] the glorious things [that God is preparing] for us [to enjoy] forever [in heaven], all [our suffering now] is not important. (aiōnios )
Јер наша лака садашња брига доноси нам вечну и од свега претежнију славу. (aiōnios )
That is why we say, “We will not continue thinking about [all the suffering that we] are experiencing now. Even though [we] cannot see [all the things that God has prepared for us in heaven], those are what we should be thinking about.” [That is how we should think], because [all these troubles] that [we(exc)] have [now] will last only a short time. But what [we will have in heaven], what [we] cannot see [now], will last forever. (aiōnios )
Нама који не гледамо на ово што се види, него на оно што се не види; јер је ово што се види, за време, а оно што се не види, вечно. (aiōnios )
We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios )
Јер знамо да кад се земаљска наша кућа тела раскопа, имамо зграду од Бога, кућу нерукотворену, вечну на небесима. (aiōnios )
[Those who give willingly and cheerfully will be rewarded like the man about whom] it is written {[about whom] (someone/the Psalmist) wrote} in the Scriptures, He generously [helps others], [he gives to those] who are poor. [God will remember] the good things that he did, [and reward him with] good things forever. (aiōn )
Као што је писано: Просу, даде сиромасима; правда његова остаје вавек. (aiōn )
God, who is the Father of our [(inc)] Lord Jesus, and who is the one [whom we should] praise forever, knows that I am not lying [about this]. (aiōn )
Бог и Отац Господа нашег Исуса Христа, који је благословен вавек, зна да не лажем. (aiōn )
Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] in order that [he might remove the guilt for] our sins. He did that in order that he might enable us to not [do the evil things that people who do not know him] do. [He did this] because God, who is our Father, wanted it. (aiōn )
Који даде себе за грехе наше да избави нас од садашњег света злог, по вољи Бога и Оца нашег, (aiōn )
[I pray that people will] praise God forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Коме слава ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
[God] will punish eternally those who do what their self-directed natures urge them to do. But those who please [God’s] Spirit will live forever [with God] because of what [God’s] Spirit does for them. (aiōnios )
Јер који сеје у тело своје, од тела ће пожњети погибао; а који сеје у дух, од духа ће пожњети живот вечни. (aiōnios )
[There], Christ is the supreme ruler over every powerful spirit of every level of authority. His rank is much higher than any powerful spirit can receive, not only now, but forever. (aiōn )
Над свим поглаварствима, и властима, и силама, и господствима, и над сваким именом што се може назвати, не само на овом свету него и на оном који иде. (aiōn )
You were acting in the same [evil] way as those who oppose Christ [MTY] act. That is, you were behaving in the [evil] ways [that Satan wanted you to behave]. He rules over evil spiritual beings that no person can see [MTY]. He is the spirit who now powerfully controls the people who disobey God. (aiōn )
У којима некад ходисте по веку овог света, по кнезу који влада у ветру, по духу који сад ради у синовима противљења; (aiōn )
in order that he might show to everyone at all times in the future that he has acted toward us in an extremely kind way because of what Christ Jesus [did for us]. (aiōn )
Да покаже у вековима који иду превелико богатство благодати своје добротом на нама у Христу Исусу. (aiōn )
and to enable everyone to understand clearly how God accomplished what he planned. God, who created everything, [has now revealed] this message, which he never revealed to anyone before. (aiōn )
И да откријем свима шта је служба тајне од постања света сакривене у Богу, који је саздао све кроз Исуса Христа; (aiōn )
That is what God had always planned, and it is what he accomplished by what our Lord Jesus [has done]. (aiōn )
По наредби векова, коју учини у Христу Исусу, Господу нашем, (aiōn )
Because of our relationship with Christ Jesus, may all (believers/those who belong to him) praise him forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn )
Ономе слава у цркви по Христу Исусу у све нараштаје ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
You must do this because the fighting that we [believers] do is not only against human beings [SYN]. Instead, we are also fighting against evil spirits who rule and have authority over all that is evil [MET] in the world. And we are fighting against evil spirits who are in heavenly places (OR, everywhere). (aiōn )
Јер наш рат није с крвљу и с телом, него с поглаварима и властима, и с управитељима таме овог света, с духовима пакости испод неба. (aiōn )
[So], praise God our Father forever and ever! Amen! (aiōn )
А Богу и Оцу нашем слава ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
[We did not know this message previously; that is, God] concealed it from [the people who lived in all] the previous ages, but he has now revealed it to his people. (aiōn )
Тајну која је била сакривена од постања света и нараштаја, а сад се јави светима Његовим, (aiōn )
[Our Lord Jesus] will forbid them from ever coming near to him and near to the glory which he has [because he is so] powerful (OR, the glory that is manifested by his power). He will cause those people to suffer forever. (aiōnios )
Који ће примити муку, погибао вечну од лица Господњег и од славе Његове, (aiōnios )
Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios )
А сам Господ наш Исус Христос, и Бог и Отац наш, коме омилесмо и даде нам утеху вечну и наду добру у благодати, (aiōnios )
Yet Christ Jesus acted mercifully to me in order that he might demonstrate [to people that he is perfectly patient with them]. He did that by his being patient with me, one who has sinned worse than everyone else. He wanted what he did for me (to be an example/to demonstrate his patience) to people who would [later] believe in him, and as a result would live forever. (aiōnios )
Али тога ради ја бих помилован да на мени првом покаже све трпљење Исус Христос за углед онима који Му хоће веровати за живот вечни. (aiōnios )
I desire that people will honor and praise the only [true] God forever! Even though no one can see him, he is the King who rules for all time, who will never die! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn )
А Цару вечном, Нераспадљивом, који се не види, једином премудром Богу част и слава ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
Try earnestly and with all your energy/strength [MET] to live in accordance with what you believe. [Continue to do your tasks well in order that] you will know for sure that you will live eternally. Remember that [God] chose you to [live with him], and that when many elders were listening you said strongly ([what you believe/that you trust in Christ]). (aiōnios )
Бори се у доброј борби вере, мучи се за вечни живот на који си и позван, и признао си добро признање пред многим сведоцима. (aiōnios )
He is the only one who will never die, [and he lives in heaven surrounded by] light [that is so bright that] no one can approach it! He is the one whom no person has ever seen and whom no person is able to see! My desire is that all people will honor him and that he [will rule] powerfully [MTY] forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōnios )
Који сам има бесмртност, и живи у светлости којој се не може приступити, ког нико од људи није видео, нити може видети, коме част и држава вечна. Амин. (aiōnios )
Tell [the believers] who are rich here in this present world that they should not be proud, and that they should not trust in their many [possessions], because they cannot be certain [how long they will have them]. Teach them that instead of [trusting in their wealth, they should trust] in God. He is the one who generously gives us everything we have in order that we may enjoy it. (aiōn )
Богатима на овом свету заповедај да се не поносе нити уздају у богатство пропадљиво, него у Бога Живога, који нам све даје изобилно за ужитак; (aiōn )
[God] saved us and chose us to conduct our lives in a pure way. It was not our doing good deeds/actions [that caused him to do this for us—something] that we did not deserve. Instead, before (time began/he created the world) he purposed/planned to [be kind to us] as a result of what Christ Jesus [would do for us]. (aiōnios )
Који нас спасе и призва звањем светим, не по делима нашим, него по својој наредби и благодати, која нам је дана у Христу Исусу пре времена вечних; (aiōnios )
Therefore I [willingly] endure all [that I am suffering] for the sake of those [whom God has] chosen. [I do this] in order that Christ Jesus will save them, too, and that they will be forever with [him in the] glorious [place where he is]. (aiōnios )
Зато трпим све избраних ради да и они добију спасење у Христу Исусу са славом вечном. (aiōnios )
[I say that] because Demas has left me. He wanted very much [the good things that he might enjoy] [MTY] in this world [right now], and so he went to Thessalonica [city]. Crescens [went to serve the Lord] in Galatia [province], and Titus went to Dalmatia [district]. (aiōn )
Јер ме Димас остави, омилевши му садашњи свет, и отиде у Солун; Крискент у Галатију, Тит у Далмацију; Лука је сам код мене. (aiōn )
[Therefore, I am sure that] the Lord will rescue me from everything that is truly evil and will bring me safely to heaven, where he rules. Praise him forever! (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn )
И Господ ће ме избавити од сваког злог дела, и сачуваће ме за царство своје небеско; коме слава ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
[As a result of my doing these things, his people] confidently expect that God will cause them to live forever. God, who never lies, promised before he created the world that [his people] would live forever. (aiōnios )
За наду вечног живота, који обећа нелажни Бог пре времена вечних, (aiōnios )
God teaches/tells us [PRS] how to stop doing what he dislikes, and to stop desiring the things that (ungodly people/people who habitually do things that do not please God) desire [MTY]. He wants us to control our behavior and to do what is right and to do what pleases him while we live in this present age/time. (aiōn )
Учећи нас да се одрекнемо безбожности и жеља овог света, и да поштено и праведно и побожно поживимо на овом свету, (aiōn )
He wanted to erase the record of our sins even though we did not deserve that, and he wanted us to receive all that [God desires] to give us. [These are the things that we] confidently expect to receive when we live [with him] eternally. (aiōnios )
Да се оправдамо благодаћу Његовом, и да будемо наследници живота вечног по нади. (aiōnios )
Perhaps the reason that [God permitted] Onesimus to be separated from {to leave} you for a little while was that [he would believe in Christ, and as a result] you would have him (back/with you) forever! (aiōnios )
Јер може бити да се за то растаде с тобом на неко време да га добијеш вечно, (aiōnios )
But now when this final age [is beginning], God has communicated to us [just once] by means of what (his Son/the man who was also God) [said and did. God] appointed him in order that he would possess everything [that truly belongs to God. God also appointed] him in order that he would create the universe. (aiōn )
говори и нама у последак дана ових преко сина, Ког постави наследника свему, кроз ког и свет створи. (aiōn )
But on the other hand, [in the Scriptures it is written that God said] this to his Son: You [(sg)] who are [also] God will rule forever [MTY], and you will reign righteously over your kingdom [MTY]. (aiōn )
А сину: Престо је Твој, Боже, ва век века; палица је правде палица царства Твог. (aiōn )
And he also said [to Christ what the Psalmist wrote] in another Scripture passage, You are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn )
Као што и на другом месту говори: Ти си свештеник вавек по реду Мелхиседековом. (aiōn )
By becoming (all [that] God intended him to be/perfect), [he has now] become fully qualified [to be our Supreme Priest. As a result, he is the one who saves] eternally all who obey him. (aiōnios )
И свршивши све, постаде свима који Га послушаше узрок спасења вечног. (aiōnios )
[I am referring to the teaching about what] various [Jewish and Christian] rituals for purifying people [signify. I am referring to the teaching about how elders enable people to receive spiritual gifts by] laying hands [on them] [MTY]. [I am referring to the teaching that God will] ([cause] those who have died to live again/raise people from the dead). And [I am referring to the teaching that God] will judge [some people and punish them] eternally. (aiōnios )
Науке крштења, и стављања руку, и васкрсења мртвих, и суда вечног. (aiōnios )
They have experienced that God’s message is good. And by what they have experienced [now], they know how [God will work] powerfully in the future. If those people reject [the message about Christ], it will not be possible for anyone to persuade them to turn away from their sinful behavior again! (aiōn )
И окусили добру реч Божју, и силу оног света, и отпали, (aiōn )
Jesus went [into God’s presence] ahead of us [(inc)] to [help] us when he became a Supreme Priest eternally in the way that Melchizedek was a Supreme Priest. (aiōn )
Где Исус уђе напред за нас, поставши поглавар свештенички довека по реду Мелхиседековом. (aiōn )
[We know this] since [God] confirmed it in [the Scripture passage in which he said to his Son], You [(sg)] are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn )
Јер сведочи: Ти си свештеник вавек по реду Мелхиседековом. (aiōn )
However, when he [appointed Christ to be a priest], it was by these words that [the Psalmist wrote in Scripture]: The Lord has solemnly declared [to the Messiah], —and he will not change his mind— “You will be a priest forever!” (aiōn )
Јер они без заклетве посташе свештеници; а Овај са заклетвом кроз Оног који Му говори: Закле се Господ и неће се раскајати: Ти си свештеник вавек по реду Мелхиседековом. (aiōn )
But because [Jesus] lives eternally, he will continue to be a Supreme Priest forever. (aiōn )
А Овај, будући да остаје вавек, има вечно свештенство. (aiōn )
[We need a Supreme Priest like] him, because in the laws [that God gave Moses] [PRS] the ones who would be appointed to be priests would be men who tended [to sin easily]. But [God] solemnly [declared] [PRS] after [he had given] his laws [to Moses] that [he would appoint] (his Son/the man who is also God) [to be a Supreme Priest. Now] ([his Son/the man who is also God]) has forever become all that God intends him to be. (aiōn )
Јер закон поставља људе за свештенике који имају слабост; а реч заклетве које је речена по закону, постави сина вавек савршена. (aiōn )
[When a Supreme Priest goes into the inner room in the tent each year, he takes] goats’ blood and calves’ blood [to offer as a sacrifice]. But Christ did not [do that. It was as though] he went into that very holy place only once, taking his own blood with him. By doing that, he eternally redeemed us. (aiōnios )
Ни с крвљу јарчијом, нити телећом, него кроз своју крв уђе једном у светињу, и нађе вечни откуп. (aiōnios )
[So, because we know what] Christ [accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died for us] [PRS, MTY], we will be very certain that we are not guilty [of having] done those things [that those who are spiritually] dead do. [As a result], we can serve God, who is all-powerful. [The priests always offer to God animals] with no defects. Similarly, when Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] to God, he was sinless [MET]. He did that as a result of [God’s] eternal Spirit [helping him]. (aiōnios )
А камоли неће крв Христа, који Духом Светим себе принесе без кривице Богу, очистити савест нашу од мртвих дела, да служимо Богу Живом и Истинитом? (aiōnios )
[By] dying [for us], [Christ] ([redeemed/] free from the penalty for their sins) even those who disobeyed the [conditions of] (OR, [during the time of]) the first covenant. So, [because] no [one could be made perfect by obeying the old covenant], now Christ establishes [between God and people] a new covenant. He does that in order that those whom God has chosen may eternally have [the blessings that God] has promised them. (aiōnios )
И зато је новом завету посредник, да кроз смрт, која би за откуп од преступака у првом завету, обећање вечног наследства приме звани. (aiōnios )
[If that were so], he would have needed to suffer [and shed his blood] repeatedly since [the time when God] created the world. But instead, in this final age, [Christ] has appeared once in order that by sacrificing himself he could cause [that people] no longer will be [punished for their] sins. (aiōn )
Иначе би Он морао много пута страдати од постања света; а сад једном на свршетку века јави се да својом жртвом сатре грех. (aiōn )
It is because we trust in God that we understand that he formed the universe by commanding [it to exist]. The result is that the things that we see were not made from things that already existed. (aiōn )
Вером познајемо да је свет речју Божјом свршен, да је све што видимо из ништа постало. (aiōn )
Jesus Christ [is] the same now as he was previously, and he will be the same forever. (aiōn )
Исус Христос јуче је и данас онај исти и вавек. (aiōn )
Jesus [provides for us], [protects us, and guides us as] a great shepherd does for his sheep [MET]. And God, who gives us [inner] peace, brought our Lord Jesus back to life. By doing that, God ratified his eternal covenant with us by the blood [that flowed from Jesus when he died on the] cross. (aiōnios )
А Бог мира, који изведе из мртвих великог Пастира овцама, крвљу завета вечног, Господа нашег Исуса Христа, (aiōnios )
So I pray that God will equip you with everything good [that you need in order] that you may do the things that he desires. May he accomplish in our lives whatever he considers pleasing as a result of Jesus Christ [equipping us]. May Jesus Christ be praised forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn )
Да вас саврши у сваком делу добром, да учините вољу Његову, чинећи у вама шта је угодно пред Њиме, кроз Исуса Христа, коме слава ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
[Just like a fire damages a forest] [MET], when we say things that are evil, [we harm many people]. What we say [MTY] reveals that we are very evil. What we say contaminates/defiles everything that we think and do [PRS, MET]. [Just like a flame of fire easily] causes [the whole surrounding area] [MET] to burn, what we say [MTY] can cause [others] to want to do evil. It is the devil himself [MTY] who causes us to say evil things. (Geenna )
И језик је ватра, свет пут неправде. Тако и језик живи међу нашим удима, поганећи све тело, и палећи време живота нашег, и запаљујући се од пакла. (Geenna )
[I ask you to do this, because you now have] a new life [MET]. It was not [by means of] something that will perish that you received this new life. Instead, it was [by means of] something that will last forever; that is, by believing the life-giving and enduring message of God. (aiōn )
Као прерођени не од семена које труне, него од оног које не труне, речју Живог Бога, која остаје довека. (aiōn )
but God’s message endures/lasts forever. This message [that endures/lasts] is the message [about Christ] that was proclaimed to you. (aiōn )
Али реч Господња осаје довека. А ово је реч што је објављена међу вама. (aiōn )
Those who speak [to the congregation] should do that as though they are speaking the [very] words of God. Those who do kind things to others should do it with the strength that God gives them, in order that God may be honored by all this {that all this may honor God} as Jesus Christ [enables us to do it. I pray that we will] praise [God] (OR, [Jesus]) and allow him [to rule over us] forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Ако ко говори, нека говори као речи Божије; ако ко служи нека служи као по моћи коју Бог даје: да се у свачему слави Бог кроз Исуса Христа, коме је слава и држава ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
God is the one who kindly helps us in every [situation], and [he is the one] who chose us to share his eternal glory/greatness [in heaven] because of our relationship with Christ. [And] after you have suffered for a while [because of things that people do to harm you], he will remove your spiritual defects/imperfections, he will strengthen you [spiritually] [DOU], and he will support you [emotionally]. (aiōnios )
А Бог сваке благодати, који вас позва на вечну своју славу у Христу Исусу, он да вас, пошто мало пострадате, саврши, да утврди, да укрепи, да утемељи. (aiōnios )
[I pray/desire that] he will [rule] powerfully forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Њему слава и држава ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
and [God] will very wholeheartedly welcome you into the place where our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will rule [his people] forever. (aiōnios )
Јер вам се тако обилно допусти улазак у вечно царство Господа нашег и спаса Исуса Христа. (aiōnios )
God destroyed [LIT] the angels who sinned. He threw them into the worst place in hell and imprisoned them [there] in darkness in order to keep them there until he judges [and punishes them]. (Tartaroō )
Јер кад Бог не поштеде анђела који сагрешише, него их метну у окове мрака пакленог, и предаде да се чувају за суд; (Tartaroō )
[Instead, live in such a manner that you] experience more and more our Savior Jesus Christ being kind [to you], and that you get to know him [better and better]. 2 Peter 3:18b [I pray/desire that Jesus Christ] will be honored both now and forever! (aiōn )
Него напредујте у благодати и у познању Господа нашег и спаса Исуса Христа. Њему слава и сад и у вечна времена. Амин. (aiōn )
Because he came here [to the earth] and we have seen him, we proclaim to you clearly that the one whom we have seen is the [one who] has always lived. He was [previously] with his Father in heaven, but he came to live among us. (aiōnios )
И живот се јави, и видесмо, и сведочимо, и јављамо вам живот вечни, који беше у Оца, и јави се нама; (aiōnios )
The [godless people in] the world [MTY], along with what they desire, will disappear, but those who do what God wants [them to do] will live forever! You know that it is now the final period of this age when there are liars who deny that Jesus is God’s Chosen One. But you have the power of God’s Spirit and you know what is true and what is false. So continue to live according to the true message that you heard when you began to believe in Christ, in order that you may continue to live united both to God’s Son and to the Father. (aiōn )
И свет пролази и жеља његова; а који твори вољу Божију остаје довека. (aiōn )
And what God told us is that [he will cause us] to live forever! (aiōnios )
И ово је обећање које нам Он обећа, живот вечни. (aiōnios )
Those who hate [any of] their fellow believers, [God considers] [MET] them [to be] murderers. And you know that no murderer has eternal life. (aiōnios )
Сваки који мрзи на брата свог крвник је људски; и знате да ниједан крвник људски нема у себи вечни живот. (aiōnios )
This is what [God] says [to us]: “I have given you eternal life!” We will live forever if we have a close relationship with his Son. (aiōnios )
И ово је сведочанство да нам је Бог дао живот вечни; и овај живот вечни у Сину је Његовом. (aiōnios )
I have written this [letter] to you who believe that Jesus is [MTY] (God’s Son/the one who is also God) in order that you may know that you have eternal life. (aiōnios )
Ово писах вама који верујете у име Сина Божијег, да знате да имате живот вечни и да верујете у име Сина Божијег. (aiōnios )
We also know that (God’s Son/the one who is also God) has come [to us], and [we know] that he has enabled us to know God, the one who is really/truly God. So now we have a close relationship with [God because] we belong to Jesus Christ, the one who is the (Son of/man who is also) God. Jesus Christ is truly God, and [he is the one who enables us to have] eternal life. (aiōnios )
А знамо да Син Божји дође, и дао нам је разум да познамо Бога Истинитог, и да будемо у истинитом Сину Његовом Исусу Христу. Ово је Истинити Бог и Живот вечни. (aiōnios )
All of us [believe God’s] true message. It is in our ([inner beings/hearts]) and we will continue [to believe it] forever! (aiōn )
За истину која у нама стоји и биће с нама довека: (aiōn )
And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios , questioned)
И анђеле који не држаше своје старешинство него оставише свој стан чува у вечним оковима под мраком за суд великог дана. (aïdios )
Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios , questioned)
Као што Содом и Гомор, и околни њихови градови, који су се прокурвали онако као и они, и ходили за другим месом, поставише се углед и муче се у вечном огњу: (aiōnios )
They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn , questioned)
Бесни валови морски, који се пене својим срамотама, звезде лажне, којима се чува мрак вечне таме. (aiōn )
Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios )
И сами себе држите у љубави Божијој, чекајући милост Господа нашег Исуса Христа за живот вечни. (aiōnios )
He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn )
Једином премудром Богу и Спасу нашем, кроз Исуса Христа Господа нашег, слава и величанство, држава и власт пре свију векова и сад и у све векове. Амин. (aiōn )
He is [the one who] has caused us to become people whose lives God rules, and he has made us to be priests [who serve] God his Father. [As a result of this, we acknowledge that] Jesus Christ is eternally divine and eternally powerful. (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn )
И учини нас цареве и свештенике Богу и Оцу свом; томе слава и држава ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
I am the living one. Although I died, I am alive again and will live forever! I have [the power to cause people] to die, and I have authority over the place where all the dead people [are]. (aiōn , Hadēs )
И Живи: и бејах мртав и ево сам жив ва век века, амин. И имам кључеве од пакла и од смрти. (aiōn , Hadēs )
The living [creatures praise], honor [DOU], and thank the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever. (aiōn )
И кад даше животиње славу и част и хвалу Ономе што сеђаше на престолу, што живи ва век века, (aiōn )
Whenever they do that, the 24 elders (prostrate themselves/kneel down) before the one who sits on the throne, and they worship him, the one who lives forever. They lay their crowns in front of the throne and sing: (aiōn )
Падоше двадесет и четири старешине пред Оним што сеђаше на престолу, и поклонише се Ономе што живи ва век века, и метнуше круне своје пред престолом говорећи: (aiōn )
I also heard every creature that is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the ocean, every creature in all those places, saying (OR, singing): “We must forever praise and honor the one who sits on the throne and the one who is like a lamb, May they reign with complete power forever!” (aiōn )
И свако створење, што је на небу, и на земљи, и под земљом, и што је на мору, и што је у њима, све чух где говоре: Ономе што седи на престолу, и Јагњету благослов и част и слава и држава ва век века. (aiōn )
This time I saw a pale horse [come out]. The one who sat on it is named ‘[The one who causes] death [PRS]’, and [the one that is named ‘The place where dead people go’] accompanied him. [God] gave them authority over one quarter of the people on earth to incite them to kill each other with weapons [SYN], and also authority to kill them (by [causing them to] starve, by [their causing them to become] sick from epidemics, and by [their causing them to be attacked by] wild animals. (Hadēs )
И видех, и гле, коњ блед, и ономе што сеђаше на њему беше име смрт, и пакао иђаше за њим; и њему се даде област на четвртом делу земље да убије мачем и глађу и смрћу и зверињем земаљским. (Hadēs )
They said, “May it be so! [We(exc)] praise, thank, and honor [you], our [(exc)] God, forever! [We(exc) acknowledge] that you are completely wise, the powerful one, who is forever able to accomplish everything he wants to. (May everyone acknowlege that it is so!/Amen!)” (aiōn )
Говорећи: Амин; благослов и слава и премудрост и хвала и част и сила и јачина Богу нашем ва век века. Амин. (aiōn )
The fifth angel blew his trumpet. Then I saw [an evil angel. He was like] a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. He was given {[Someone] gave him} the key to the shaft [that descended] ([to] the underworld/[to] the deep dark pit). (Abyssos )
И пети анђео затруби, и видех звезду где паде с неба на земљу, и даде јој се кључ од студенца бездана; (Abyssos )
When he opened that shaft, smoke arose from it like smoke from a huge burning furnace. The smoke prevented [anyone from seeing] the sky and the light of the sun. (Abyssos )
И отвори студенац бездана, и изиђе дим из студенца као дим велике пећи, и поцрне сунце и небо од дима студенчевог. (Abyssos )
The king who ruled over them was the angel of the underworld. His name in the Hebrew language is Abaddon. In the Greek language it is Apollyon. [Both of] those names [mean ‘Destroyer’]. (Abyssos )
И имаху над собом цара анђела бездана коме је име јеврејски Авадон, а грчки Аполион. (Abyssos )
and he asked the one who lives forever, the one who created heaven and everything that is in it, [who created] the earth and everything that is in it, and [who created] the ocean and everything that is in it, to affirm that what he said was true. [He said that he] would surely no longer delay [what he had planned to do]. (aiōn )
И закле се Оним који живи ва век века, који сазда небо и шта је на њему, и земљу и шта је на њој, и море и шта је у њему, да времена већ неће бити; (aiōn )
When they have finished proclaiming [to people the message from God], the beast that comes up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit) will attack them, overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos )
И кад сврше сведочанство своје, онда ће звер што излази из бездана учинити с њима рат, и победиће их и убиће их. (Abyssos )
Then the seventh angel blew [his trumpet]. Angels in heaven shouted loudly, “Our Lord [God] and the Messiah [whom he has appointed] can now govern [everyone in] [MTY] the world, and they will continue to rule people forever!” (aiōn )
И седми анђео затруби и посташе велики гласови на небесима говорећи: Поста царство света Господа нашег и Христа Његовог, и цароваће ва век века. (aiōn )
I saw another angel that was flying between the sky and heaven. He was bringing [God’s] eternal good message [to earth], in order that he might proclaim it to people who live on the earth. He will proclaim it to every nation, [to every] tribe, [to speakers of every] language [MTY], and [to every] people-[group]. (aiōnios )
И видех другог анђела где лети посред неба, који имаше вечно јеванђеље да објави онима који живе на земљи, и сваком племену, и језику и колену и народу. (aiōnios )
The smoke [from the fire] that torments them will rise forever. [They will] be tormented {[God will] torment them} continually, day and night. [That is what will happen to] the people who worship the beast and its image and who allow its name to be marked on them {allow [its agent] to mark them with its name}.” (aiōn )
И дим мучења њиховог излазиће ва век века; и неће имати мира дан и ноћ који се поклањају звери и икони њеној, и који примају жиг имена њеног. (aiōn )
One of the four living [creatures] gave [each of] the seven angels a golden bowl, filled with [wine/liquid. That wine/liquid symbolized] that God, who lives forever, would severely punish [rebellious people]. (aiōn )
И једна од четири животиње даде седморици анђела седам чаша златних напуњених гнева Бога, који живи ва век века. (aiōn )
The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos )
Звер коју си видео беше и није, и изићи ће из бездана и отићи ће у пропаст; и удивиће се који живе на земљи, којима имена написана нису у књигу живота од постања света, кад виде звер која беше, и није, и доћи ће опет. (Abyssos )
[The crowd] shouted a second time saying: (Hallelujah!/Praise God!) The smoke of the fire that is burning the cities will rise forever! (aiōn )
И другом рекоше: Алилуја! И дим њен излажаше ва век века. (aiōn )
The beast and the false prophet were captured {[He] captured the beast and the false prophet}. The false prophet is the one who had performed miracles in the beast’s presence. By doing that he had deceived the people who had accepted the beast’s mark [on their foreheads] and who worshipped its image. The beast and the false prophet were thrown {[He] threw the beast and the one who falsely said that he spoke messages that came directly from God} alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. (Limnē Pyr )
И би ухваћена звер, и с њом лажни пророк који учини пред њом знаке којима превари оне који примише жиг зверин и који се поклањају икони њеној: живи бише бачени обоје у језеро огњено, које гори сумпором. (Limnē Pyr )
I saw an angel coming down from heaven. He had the key to the deep dark pit, and he was carrying a large chain in his hand. (Abyssos )
И видех анђела где силази с неба, који имаше кључ од бездана и вериге велике у руци својој. (Abyssos )
The angel threw him into the deep dark pit. He shut [the door of the pit], locked it, and sealed it [to prevent anyone from opening it]. He did that in order that Satan might no longer deceive [the people of the] nations [MTY], until those 1,000 years are ended. After that [time], Satan must be released {[God/God’s angel] must release Satan} for a short time [in order that he can do what God has planned]. (Abyssos )
И у бездан баци је, и затвори је, и запечати над њом, да више не прелашћује народе, док се не наврши хиљаду година; и потом ваља да буде одрешена на мало времена. (Abyssos )
The devil, who had deceived those people, will be thrown {[God’s angel] will throw the devil, who had deceived those people} into the lake of burning sulfur. [This is the same lake] into which both the beast and the false prophet had been [thrown] {[he] had [thrown] both the beast and the false prophet}. [As a result], they will continually suffer severely forever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
И ђаво који их вараше би бачен у језеро огњено и сумпорито, где је звер и лажни пророк; и биће мучени дан и ноћ ва век века. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
[The people whose bodies were buried in the] sea [became alive again in order to stand before God’s throne]. Everyone who had been buried on the land (OR, Every person who was waiting in the place where dead people stay) [became alive again, in order to stand before the throne]. [God] judged each one of them according to what each one had done. (Hadēs )
И море даде своје мртваце, и смрт и пакао дадоше своје мртваце; и суд примише по делима својим. (Hadēs )
All the unbelievers [PRS, MTY] —those who had been in the place where they waited after they died— [were thrown into the burning lake]. The burning lake is [the place in which people] die the second time. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
И смрт и пакао бачени бише у језеро огњено. И ово је друга смрт. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
The people whose [names] [MTY] are not in the book, the one [where God] has written [the names of people who] have [eternal] life, [were also thrown] {([God/God’s angel]) threw them also} [into the lake] of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
И ко се не нађе написан у књизи живота, бачен би у језеро огњено. (Limnē Pyr )
But those who are cowardly, those who do not believe [in me], those [who do] detestable things, those who are murderers, those who sin sexually, those who commit sorcery, those who worship idols, and every liar, will [all suffer] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. [Anyone who suffers in that lake] will be dying the second time.” (Limnē Pyr )
А страшљивима и невернима и поганима и крвницима, и курварима, и врачарима, и идолопоклоницима, и свима лажама, њима је део у језеру што гори огњем и сумпором; које је смрт друга. (Limnē Pyr )
There will never again be night. [God’s servants] will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will shine his light upon them. And they will rule forever. (aiōn )
И ноћи тамо неће бити, и неће потребовати видела од жишка, ни видела сунчаног, јер ће их обасјавати Господ Бог, и цароваће ва век века. (aiōn )
My [committing adultery] would [produce in me a fire like] [MET] the fire that burns people in hell, and it would burn up everything that I own. ()
If you go into houses of women who are like that, you will die [when you are still young]; the road [to their houses] leads to hell. ()
They will look around the land and see only trouble/distress and darkness and things that cause them to despair. And [then] they will be thrown into the very black darkness [of hell]. ()
Many of those who have died [EUP] will become alive again. Some of them will live eternally [with God], and some will be eternally shamed/disgraced [in hell]. ()
“As for me, I [am not very important, because] I baptize you [only] with water. I [baptize you] because of your feeling sorry that you have sinned. But someone else will come soon who is very great; [he will do powerful deeds] (OR, [act powerfully]). [Because he is] superior to me, I am not worthy [even to do a menial task for him, such as] to carry his sandals. He will put [his] Holy Spirit [within] you [to truly change] the way you live [MET], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [in hell]. ()
“[Going to] where people live eternally [with God in heaven] is difficult. [It is like] going along a narrow road [PRS, MET] that leads to a narrow gate. Not many people find that way. [The way] that most [people take] is easy, [but it results in their being punished] {[God punishing them]} [in hell. That way is like a] wide road that people walk on [PRS, MET] until they reach the wide gate, but that road and that gate lead to where [they] will be destroyed {[God] will destroy them}. Many people enter that gate. So I [am telling you to leave the wide road and] enter the narrow gate [to heaven].” ()
[And] all the trees that do not produce good fruit are chopped down and burned in a fire {people chop them down and burn them in a fire} [to get rid of them]. [Similarly], those who falsely claim to be prophets [will be thrown] {[God will throw false prophets]} [into the fires of hell]. ()
But [the Jews] [IDM] [who should have allowed] God to rule over them will be sent to [hell, where there is] total darkness. And as a result, they will weep [because of their suffering] and will grind their teeth [because they will have severe pain] [MTY].” ()
“You [people who live in] Chorazin [city] [MTY] and you [people who live in] Bethsaida [city] [MTY] will suffer terribly in hell! [I] did great miracles in your [cities, but you did not turn from your sinful behavior]. If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in [the ancient cities of] Tyre and Sidon, the [wicked people who lived there] long ago would have sat in ashes, wearing coarse cloth [to show that they were sorry for their sins]. ()
They will throw those people into the fires of [hell]. There those people will weep and grind their teeth [because of the great pain that they are suffering]. ()
They will throw the wicked people into the fire [in hell]. And those wicked people will weep and gnash their teeth [because of the intense pain they are suffering].” ()
Do not pay any attention to [the Pharisees]. They [do not help people who do not know God’s truth] to [understand it, just like] blind guides [do not help] blind [people to perceive where they should go] [MET]. If a blind person [tries to] lead [another] blind person, they will both fall into a big hole [MET]. [Similarly, both the Pharisees and their disciples will end up in hell].” ()
In the same way [that shepherds do not want one of] their [sheep to stray away], so [God], your Father in heaven, does not want [even] one of these children to go to hell.” ()
John replied to them all, “No, [I am not]. I used [only] water when I baptized you. But [the Messiah] will soon come! He is far greater than I am. [He is so great that] I am not worthy to [be like his slave and] untie his sandals [MET] [like] a slave would do! He will put [his] Holy Spirit within [MTY] you [to truly change your lives], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [MET] [in hell]. ()
Not one! But, on the contrary, some of this crowd [have believed in him]. They do not know [the true teachings of] our laws! They will go to hell [for listening to him]!” ()
But Peter said to him, “May you [(sg)] and your money go to hell, because you [mistakenly] think that you can buy [from us] what God [alone] gives to [people] ()
If [the things that we have taught] are not valuable and long-lasting [MET], [we will not get a reward]. We will be saved {[God] will save us} [from hell], but [that is all that we will get. We will be like a man who] escapes from a fire [without saving any of his possessions]. ()
And those people who died [EUP] [while they were trusting] in Christ will go to hell. ()
To those who [are on the way to hell, our message is like] [MET] a foul smell [because it is about dying] and being separated from God forever. But, to those [on the way to heaven, the message that we teach is like] a pure fragrant smell, [because we tell them] that they will live [forever with God. As we think about that, we think] (no one is able [to do] such important work [for God!]/how can anyone be able [to do] such important work [for God]?) [RHQ] ()
And by doing wicked [things], he will completely deceive those who will [certainly] (perish/go to hell). [He will deceive them] because they will have refused to love the true [message]. So they will not be saved {God will not save them}. ()
These [teachers who each false things mislead/deceive people by promising what they cannot do], as [MET] dried-up springs [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect to get water from them]. They [mislead/deceive people] [MET] just like clouds that are blown along by strong winds [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect rain, but no rain falls. Therefore], God has reserved the darkness of hell [for those teachers of false doctrines]. ()
