< Acts 21 >

1 When, at last, we had torn ourselves away and had set sail, we ran in a straight course to Cos; the next day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.
I kad bi te se odvezosmo otrgnuvši se od njih, iduæi pravo doðosmo u Ko, i drugi dan u Rod i odande u Pataru.
2 Finding a ship bound for Phoenicia, we went on board and put to sea.
I našavši laðu koja polazi u Finikiju, uðosmo i odvezosmo se.
3 After sighting Cyprus and leaving that island on our left, we continued our voyage to Syria and put in at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload her cargo.
A kad nam se ukaza Kipar, ostavismo ga nalijevo, i plovljasmo u Siriju, i stadosmo u Tiru; jer ondje valjaše da se istovari laða.
4 Having searched for the disciples and found them, we stayed at Tyre for seven days; and, taught by the Spirit, they repeatedly urged Paul not to proceed to Jerusalem.
I našavši uèenike ostasmo ondje sedam dana: oni Pavlu govorahu Duhom da ne ide gore u Jerusalim.
5 When, however, our time was up, we left and went on our way, all the disciples and their wives and children coming to see us off. Then, after kneeling down on the beach and praying,
A kad bi te mi dane navršismo, izišavši iðasmo, i praæahu nas svi sa ženama i djecom do iza grada, i kleknuvši na brijegu pomolismo se Bogu.
6 we took leave of one another; and we went on board, while they returned home.
I oprostivši se jedan s drugijem uðosmo u laðu; a oni se vratiše svojijem kuæama.
7 As for us, our voyage was over when having sailed from Tyre we reached Ptolemais. here we inquired after the welfare of the brethren, and remained a day with them.
A mi poèevši plovljenje od Tira, doðosmo u Ptolemaidu; i pozdravivši se s braæom ostasmo kod njih jedan dan.
8 On the morrow we left Ptolemais and went on to Caesarea, where we came to the house of Philip the Evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.
A sjutradan pošavši Pavle i koji bijasmo s njim doðosmo u Æesariju; i ušavši u kuæu Filipa jevanðelista, koji bješe jedan od sedam ðakona, ostasmo u njega.
9 Now Philip had four unmarried daughters who were prophetesses;
I ovaj imaše èetiri kæeri djevojke koje proricahu.
10 and during our somewhat lengthy stay a Prophet of the name of Agabus came down from Judaea.
Stojeæi mi pak ondje mnogo dana, doðe odozgo iz Judeje jedan prorok, po imenu Agav;
11 When he arrived he took Paul's loincloth, and bound his own feet and arms with it, and said, "Thus says the Holy Spirit, 'So will the Jews in Jerusalem bind the owner of this loincloth, and will hand him over to the Gentiles.'"
I došavši k nama uze pojas Pavlov i svezavši svoje ruke i noge reèe: tako veli Duh sveti: èovjeka kojega je ovaj pojas, ovako æe ga svezati u Jerusalimu Jevreji, i predaæe ga u ruke neznabožaca.
12 As soon as we heard these words, both we and the brethren at Caesarea entreated Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
I kad èusmo ovo, molismo i mi i ondašnji da ne ide gore u Jerusalim.
13 His reply was, "What can you mean by thus breaking my heart with your grief? Why, as for me, I am ready not only to go to Jerusalem and be put in chains, but even to die there for the sake of the Lord Jesus."
A Pavle odgovori i reèe: šta èinite te plaèete i cijepate mi srce? Jer ja ne samo svezan biti hoæu, nego i umrijeti u Jerusalimu gotov sam za ime Gospoda Isusa.
14 So when he was not to be dissuaded, we ceased remonstrating with him and said, "The Lord's will be done!"
A kad ga ne mogasmo odvratiti, umukosmo rekavši: volja Božija neka bude.
15 A few days afterwards we loaded our baggage-cattle and continued our journey to Jerusalem.
A poslije ovijeh dana spremivši se iziðosmo u Jerusalim.
16 Some of the disciples from Caesarea also joined our party, and brought with them Mnason, a Cyprian, one of the early disciples, at whose house we were to lodge.
A doðoše s nama i neki uèenici iz Æesarije vodeæi sa sobom nekoga Mnasona iz Kipra, staroga uèenika, u kojega bismo mi stajali.
17 At length we reached Jerusalem, and there the brethren gave us a hearty welcome.
I kad doðosmo u Jerusalim, primiše nas braæa ljubazno.
18 On the following day we went with Paul to call on James, and all the Elders of the Church came also.
A sjutradan otide Pavle s nama k Jakovu, i doðoše sve starješine.
19 After exchanging friendly greetings, Paul told in detail all that God had done among the Gentiles through his instrumentality.
I pozdravivši se s njima kazivaše sve redom šta uèini Bog u neznabošcima njegovom službom.
20 And they, when they had heard his statement, gave the glory to God. Then they said, "You see, brother, how many tens of thousands of Jews there are among those who have accepted the faith, and they are all zealous upholders of the Law.
A oni èuvši hvaljahu Boga i rekoše mu: vidiš li, brate! koliko je hiljada Jevreja koji vjerovaše, i svi teže na stari zakon.
21 Now what they have been repeatedly told about you is that you teach all the Jews among the Gentiles to abandon Moses, and that you forbid them to circumcise their children or observe old-established customs.
A doznali su za tebe da uèiš otpadanju od zakona Mojsijeva sve Jevreje koji žive meðu neznabošcima, kazujuæi da im ne treba obrezivati djece svoje, niti držati obièaja otaèkijeh.
22 What then ought you to do? They are sure to hear that you have come to Jerusalem;
Šta æemo dakle sad? narod æe se sabrati jamaèno; jer æe èuti da si došao.
23 so do this which we now tell you. We have four men here who have a vow resting on them.
Ovo dakle uèini što ti reèemo: u nas imaju èetiri èovjeka koji su se zavjetovali Bogu;
24 Associate with these men and purify yourself with them, and pay their expenses so that they can shave their heads. Then everybody will know that there is no truth in these stories about you, but that in your own actions you yourself scrupulously obey the Law.
Ove uzmi i oèisti se s njima, i potroši na njih neka ostrigu glave svoje, i svi æe doznati da ono što su èuli za tebe ništa nije, nego da i sam držiš zakon i živiš po njemu.
25 But as for the Gentiles who have accepted the faith, we have communicated to them our decision that they are carefully to abstain from anything sacrificed to an idol, from blood, from what is strangled, and from fornication."
A za neznabošce koji vjerovaše mi poslasmo presudivši da oni takovo ništa ne drže osim da se èuvaju od priloga idolskijeh, i od krvi, i od udavljenoga, i od kurvarstva.
26 So Paul associated with the men; and the next day, having purified himself with them, he went into the Temple, giving every one to understand that the days of their purification were finished, and there he remained until the sacrifice for each of them was offered.
Tada Pavle uze one ljude, i sjutradan oèistivši se s njima, uðe u crkvu, i pokaza kako izvršuje dane oèišæenja dokle se ne prinese žrtva za svakoga njih.
27 But, when the seven days were nearly over, the Jews from the province of Asia, having seen Paul in the Temple, set about rousing the fury of all the people against him.
A kad šæaše da se navrši sedam dana, vidjevši ga u crkvi oni Jevreji što bijahu iz Azije, pobuniše sav narod, i metnuše ruke na nj
28 They laid hands on him, crying out, "Men of Israel, help! help! This is the man who goes everywhere preaching to everybody against the Jewish people and the Law and this place. And besides, he has even brought Gentiles into the Temple and has desecrated this holy place."
Vièuæi: pomagajte, ljudi Izrailjci! ovo je èovjek koji protiv naroda i zakona i protiv ovoga mjesta uèi sve svuda; pa još i Grke uvede u crkvu i opogani sveto mjesto ovo.
29 (For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and imagined that Paul had brought him into the Temple.)
Jer bijahu vidjeli s njim u gradu Trofima iz Efesa, kojega mišljahu da je uveo Pavle u crkvu.
30 The excitement spread through the whole city, and the people rushed in crowds to the Temple, and there laid hold of Paul and began to drag him out; and the Temple gates were immediately closed.
I sav se grad podiže, i navali narod sa sviju strana, i uhvativši Pavla vucijahu ga napolje iz crkve; i odmah se zatvoriše vrata.
31 But while they were trying to kill Paul, word was taken up to the Tribune in command of the battalion, that all Jerusalem was in a ferment.
A kad šæahu da ga ubiju, doðe glas gore k vojvodi od èete da se pobuni sav Jerusalim.
32 He instantly sent for a few soldiers and their officers, and came down among the people with all speed. At the sight of the Tribune and the troops they ceased beating Paul.
A on odmah uzevši vojnike i kapetane dotrèa na njih. A oni vidjevši vojvodu i vojnike prestaše biti Pavla.
33 Then the Tribune, making his way to him, arrested him, and, having ordered him to be secured with two chains, proceeded to ask who he was and what he had been doing.
A vojvoda pristupivši uze ga, i zapovjedi da ga metnu u dvoje verige, i pitaše ko je i šta je uèinio.
34 Some of the crowd shouted one accusation against Paul and some another, until, as the uproar made it impossible for the truth to be ascertained with certainty, the Tribune ordered him to be brought into the barracks.
A jedan vikaše jedno, a drugi drugo po narodu. A kad ne može od bune ništa da razumije upravo, zapovjedi da ga odvedu u oko.
35 When Paul was going up the steps, he had to be carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the mob;
A kad bi na basamacima, moraše ga vojnici nositi sile radi naroda.
36 for the whole mass of the people pressed on in the rear, shouting, "Away with him!"
Jer za njim prista mnoštvo naroda koji vikahu: pogubi ga.
37 When he was about to be taken into the barracks, Paul said to the Tribune, "May I speak to you?" "Do you know Greek?" the Tribune asked.
A kad šæaše Pavle da uðe u oko, reèe vojvodi: je li mi slobodno govoriti što tebi? A on reèe: zar umiješ Grèki?
38 "Are you not the Egyptian who some years ago excited the riot of the 4,000 cut-throats, and led them out into the Desert?"
Nijesi li ti Misirac koji prije ovijeh dana podbuni i izvede u pustinju èetiri hiljade hajduka?
39 "I am a Jew," replied Paul, "belonging to Tarsus in Cilicia, and am a citizen of no unimportant city. Give me leave, I pray you, to speak to the people."
A Pavle reèe: ja sam èovjek Jevrejin iz Tarsa, graðanin poznatoga grada u Kilikiji: nego te molim dopusti mi da govorim k narodu.
40 So with his permission Paul stood on the steps and motioned with his hand to the people to be quiet; and when there was perfect silence he addressed them in Hebrew.
A kad mu dopusti, stade Pavle na basamacima i mahnu rukom na narod; i kad posta velika tišina progovori Jevrejskim jezikom govoreæi:
