Acts 13
1 Now there were in Antioch, in the Church there--as Prophets and teachers--barnabas, Symeon surnamed 'the black,' Lucius the Cyrenaean, Manaen (who was Herod the Tetrarch's foster-brother), and Saul.
A u crkvi koja bješe u Antiohiji bijahu neki proroci i uèitelji, to jest: Varnava i Simeun koji se zvaše Nigar, i Lukije Kirinac, i Manail odgajeni s Irodom èetverovlasnikom, i Savle.
2 While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for Me, now at once, Barnabas and Saul, for the work to which I have called them."
A kad oni služahu Gospodu i pošæahu, reèe Duh sveti: odvojte mi Varnavu i Savla na djelo na koje ih pozvah.
3 So, after fasting and prayer and the laying on of hands, they let them go.
Tada postivši i pomolivši se Bogu metnuše ruke na njih, i otpustiše ih.
4 They therefore, being thus sent out by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleuceia, and from there sailed to Cyprus.
Ovi dakle poslani od Duha svetoga siðoše u Seleukiju, i odande otploviše u Kipar.
5 Having reached Salamis, they began to announce God's Message in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John as their assistant.
I došavši u Salamin javiše rijeè Božiju u zbornicama Jevrejskima; a imahu i Jovana slugu.
6 When they had gone through the whole length of the island as far as Paphos, they there met with a Jewish magician and false prophet, Bar-Jesus by name,
A kad proðoše ostrvo tja do Pafa, naðoše nekakvoga èovjeka vraèara i lažna proroka, Jevrejina, kome bješe ime Varisus,
7 who was a friend of the Proconsul Sergius Paulus. The Proconsul was a man of keen intelligence. He sent for Barnabas and Saul, and asked to be told God's Message.
Koji bješe s namjesnikom Srðem Pavlom, èovjekom razumnijem. Ovaj dozvavši Varnavu i Savla zaiska da èuje rijeè Božiju.
8 But Elymas (or 'the Magician,' for such is the meaning of the name) opposed them, and tried to prevent the Proconsul from accepting the faith.
A Elima vraèar jer to znaèi ime njegovo) stade im se suprotiti, gledajuæi da odvrati namjesnika od vjere.
9 Then Saul, who is also called Paul, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and, fixing his eyes on Elymas,
A Savle koji se zvaše i Pavle, pun Duha svetoga pogledavši na nj
10 said, "You who are full of every kind of craftiness and unscrupulous cunning--you son of the Devil and foe to all that is right--will you never cease to misrepresent the straight paths of the Lord?
Reèe: o napunjeni svakoga lukavstva i svake pakosti, sine ðavolji! neprijatelju svake pravde! zar ne prestaješ kvariti pravijeh putova Gospodnjijeh?
11 The Lord's hand is now upon you, and you will be blind for a time and unable to see the light of day." Instantly there fell upon him a mist and a darkness, and, as he walked about, he begged people to lead him by the hand.
I sad eto ruke Gospodnje na te, i da budeš slijep da ne vidiš sunca za neko vrijeme. I ujedanput napade na nj mrak i tama, i pipajuæi tražaše voða.
12 Then the Proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed, being struck with amazement at the teaching of the Lord.
Tada namjesnik, kad vidje šta bi, vjerova, diveæi se nauci Gospodnjoj.
13 From Paphos, Paul and his party put out to sea and sailed to Perga in Pamphylia. John, however, left them and returned to Jerusalem.
A kad se Pavle sa svojijem društvom odveze iz Pafa, doðoše u Pergu Pamfilijsku; a Jovan se odvoji od njih, i vrati se u Jerusalim.
14 But they themselves, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch in Pisidia. Here, on the Sabbath day, they went into the synagogue and sat down.
A oni otišavši iz Perge doðoše u Antiohiju Pisidijsku, i ušavši u zbornicu u dan subotni sjedoše.
15 After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the Wardens of the synagogue sent word to them. "Brethren," they said, "if you have anything encouraging to say to the people, speak."
A po èitanju zakona i proroka poslaše starješine zbornièke k njima govoreæi: ljudi braæo! ako je u vama rijeè utjehe za narod, govorite.
16 So Paul rose, and motioning with his hand for silence, said, "Israelites, and you others who fear God, pay attention to me.
A Pavle ustavši i mahnuvši rukom reèe: ljudi Izrailjci i koji se Boga bojite! èujte.
17 The God of this people of Israel chose our forefathers, and made the people great during their stay in Egypt, until with wondrous power He brought them out from that land.
Bog naroda ovoga izabra oce naše, i podiže narod kad bijahu došljaci u zemlji Misirskoj, i rukom visokom izvede ih iz nje.
18 For a period of about forty years, He fed them, like a nurse, in the Desert.
I do èetrdeset godina prehrani ih u pustinji.
19 Then, after overthrowing seven nations in the land of Canaan, He divided that country among them as their inheritance for about four hundred and fifty years;
I zatrvši sedam naroda u zemlji Hanaanskoj na kocke razdijeli im zemlju njihovu.
20 and afterwards He gave them judges down to the time of the Prophet Samuel.
I potom na èetiri stotine i pedeset godina dade im sudije do Samuila proroka.
21 Next they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a Benjamite, who reigned forty years.
I od tada iskaše cara, i dade im Bog Saula, sina Kisova, èovjeka od koljena Venijaminova, za èetrdeset godina.
22 After removing him, He raised up David to be their king, to whom He also bore witness when He said, "'I have found David the son of Jesse, a man I love, who will obey all My commands.'
I uklonivši njega podiže im Davida za cara, kome i reèe svjedoèeæi: naðoh Davida sina Jesejeva, èovjeka po srcu mojemu, koji æe ispuniti sve volje moje.
23 "It is from among David's descendants that God, in fulfilment of His promise, has raised up a Saviour for Israel, even Jesus.
Od njegova sjemena podiže Bog po obeæanju Izrailju spasa Isusa;
24 Before the coming of Jesus, John had proclaimed to all the people of Israel a baptism of repentance.
Kad Jovan pred njegovijem dolaskom propovijeda krštenje pokajanja svemu narodu Izrailjevu.
25 But John, towards the end of his career, repeatedly asked the people, "'What do you suppose me to be? I am not the Christ. But there is One coming after me whose sandal I am not worthy to unfasten.'
I kad svršivaše Jovan teèenje svoje, govoraše: ko mislite da sam ja nijesam ja; nego evo ide za mnom, kome ja nijesam dostojan razdriješiti remena na obuæi njegovoj.
26 "Brethren, descendants of the family of Abraham, and all among you who fear God, to us has this Message of salvation been sent.
Ljudi braæo! sinovi roda Avraamova, i koji se meðu vama Boga boje! vama se posla rijeè ovoga spasenija.
27 For the people of Jerusalem and their rulers, by the judgement they pronounced on Jesus, have actually fulfilled the predictions of the Prophets which are read Sabbath after Sabbath, through ignorance of those predictions and of Him.
Jer oni što žive u Jerusalimu, i knezovi njihovi, ne poznaše ovoga i glasove proroèke koji se èitaju svake subote osudivši ga izvršiše.
28 Without having found Him guilty of any capital offence they urged Pilate to have Him put to death;
I ne našavši ni jedne krivice smrtne moliše Pilata da ga pogubi.
29 and when they had carried out everything which had been written about Him, they took Him down from the cross and laid Him in a tomb.
I kad svršiše sve što je pisano za njega, skinuše ga s drveta i metnuše u grob.
30 "But God raised Him from the dead.
A Bog vaskrse ga iz mrtvijeh.
31 And, after a few days, He appeared to the people who had gone up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem and are now witnesses concerning Him to the Jews.
I pokaziva se mnogo dana onima što izlaziše s njim iz Galileje u Jerusalim, koji su sad svjedoci njegovi pred narodom.
32 And we bring you the Good News about the promise made to our forefathers,
I mi vam javljamo obeæanje koje bi ocevima našima da je ovo Bog ispunio nama, djeci njihovoj, podignuvši Isusa;
33 that God has amply fulfilled it to our children in raising up Jesus; as it is also written in the second Psalm, 'Thou art My Son: to-day I have become Thy Father.'
Kao što je napisano i u drugom psalmu: ti si moj sin, ja te danas rodih.
34 And as to His having raised Him from among the dead, never again to be in the position of one soon to return to decay, He speaks thus: 'I will give you the holy and trustworthy promises made to David.'
A da ga iz mrtvijeh vaskrse da se više ne vrati u truhljenje ovako reèe: daæu vam svetinju Davidovu vjernu.
35 Because in another Psalm also He says, 'Thou wilt not give up Thy Holy One to undergo decay.'
Zato i na drugom mjestu govori: neæeš dati da tvoj svetac vidi truhljenja.
36 For David, after having been useful to his own generation in accordance with God's purpose, did fall asleep, was gathered to his forefathers, and did undergo decay.
Jer David posluživši rodu svojemu po volji Božijoj umrije, i metnuše ga kod otaca njegovijeh, i vidje truhljenje.
37 But He whom God raised to life underwent no decay.
A kojega Bog podiže ne vidje truhljenja.
38 "Understand therefore, brethren, that through this Jesus forgiveness of sins is announced to you;
Tako da vam je na znanje, ljudi braæo! da se kroza nj vama propovijeda oproštenje grijeha.
39 and in Him every believer is absolved from all offences, from which you could not be absolved under the Law of Moses.
I od svega, oda šta se ne mogoste opravdati u zakonu Mojsijevu, opravdaæe se u njemu svaki koji vjeruje.
40 Beware, then, lest what is spoken in the Prophets should come true of you:
Gledajte dakle da ne doðe na vas ono što je kazano u prorocima:
41 'Behold, you despisers, be astonished and perish, because I am carrying on a work in your time--a work which you will utterly refuse to believe, though it be fully declared to you.'"
Vidite, nemarljivi! i èudite se, i nek vas nestane; jer ja èinim djelo u dane vaše, djelo koje neæete vjerovati ako vam ko uskazuje.
42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people earnestly begged to have all this repeated to them on the following Sabbath.
A kad izlažahu iz zbornice Jevrejske, moljahu neznabošci da im se ove rijeèi u drugu subotu govore.
43 And, when the congregation had broken up, many of the Jews and of the devout converts from heathenism continued with Paul and Barnabas, who talked to them and urged them to hold fast to the grace of God.
A kad se sabor raziðe, poðoše za Pavlom i za Varnavom mnogi od Jevreja i pobožnijeh došljaka; a oni govoreæi im svjetovahu ih da ostanu u blagodati Božijoj.
44 On the next Sabbath almost the whole population of the city came together to hear the Lord's Message.
A u drugu subotu sabra se gotovo sav grad da èuju rijeèi Božije.
45 Seeing the crowds, the Jews, filled with angry jealousy, opposed Paul's statements and abused him.
A kad vidješe Jevreji narod, napuniše se zavisti, i govorahu protivno rijeèima Pavlovijem nasuprot govoreæi i huleæi.
46 Then, throwing off all reserve, Paul and Barnabas said, "We were bound to proclaim God's Message to you first. But since you spurn it and judge yourselves to be unworthy of the Life of the Ages--well, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
A Pavle i Varnava oslobodivši se rekoše: vama je najprije trebalo da se govori rijeè Božija; ali kad je odbacujete, i sami se pokazujete da nijeste dostojni vjeènoga života, evo se obræemo k neznabošcima. (aiōnios g166)
47 For such is the Lord's command to us. "'I have placed Thee,' He says of Christ, 'as a light to the Gentiles, in order that Thou mayest be a Saviour as far as the remotest parts of the earth.'"
Jer nam tako zapovjedi Gospod: postavih te za vidjelo neznabošcima, da budeš spasenije do samoga kraja zemlje.
48 The Gentiles listened with delight and extolled the Lord's Message; and all who were pre-destined to the Life of the Ages believed. (aiōnios g166)
A kad èuše neznabošci, radovahu se i slavljahu rijeè Božiju, i vjerovaše koliko ih bješe pripravljeno za život vjeèni. (aiōnios g166)
49 So the Lord's Message spread through the whole district.
I rijeè se Božija raznošaše po svoj okolini.
50 But the Jews influenced the gentlewomen of rank who worshipped with them, and also the leading men in the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas and drove them out of the district.
Ali Jevreji podgovoriše pobožne i poštene žene i starješine gradske te podigoše gonjenje na Pavla i Varnavu, i istjeraše ih iz svoje zemlje.
51 But they shook off the dust from their feet as a protest against them and came to Iconium;
A oni otresavši na njih prah sa svojijeh nogu doðoše u Ikoniju.
52 and as for the disciples, they were more and more filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
A uèenici punjahu se radosti i Duha svetoga.
