Dela apostolska 1
1 Prvu sam ti knjigu napisao o svemu, o Teofile, što poèe Isus i tvoriti i uèiti
The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
2 Do dana kad se uznese, pošto Duhom svetijem zapovjedi apostolima koje izabra,
until the day in which he was received up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.
3 Pred kojima i po stradanju svome pokaza sebe živa mnogijem i istinitijem znacima, i javlja im se èetrdeset dana, i govori o carstvu Božijemu.
To these he also showed himself alive after he suffered, by many proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking about God’s Kingdom.
4 I sabravši ih zapovjedi im da ne idu iz Jerusalima, nego da èekaju obeæanje oèino, koje èuste, reèe, od mene;
Being assembled together with them, he commanded them, “Do not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.
5 Jer je Jovan krstio vodom, a vi æete se krstiti Duhom svetijem ne dugo posle ovijeh dana.
For John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
6 A oni onda koji zajedno bijahu, pitahu ga govoreæi: Gospode! hoæeš li sad naèiniti carstvo Izrailjevo?
Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?”
7 A on im reèe: nije vaše znati vremena i ljeta koje otac zadrža u svojoj vlasti;
He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority.
8 Nego æete primiti silu kad siðe Duh sveti na vas; i biæete mi svjedoci i u Jerusalimu i po svoj Judeji i Samariji i tja do kraja zemlje.
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.”
9 I ovo rekavši vidješe oni gdje se podiže i odnese ga oblak iz oèiju njihovijeh.
When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.
10 I kad gledahu za njim gdje ide na nebo, gle, dva èovjeka stadoše pred njima u bijelijem haljinama,
While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing,
11 Koji i rekoše: ljudi Galilejci! šta stojite i gledate na nebo? Ovaj Isus koji se od vas uze na nebo tako æe doæi kao što vidjeste da ide na nebo.
who also said, “You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who was received up from you into the sky, will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky.”
12 Tada se vratiše u Jerusalim s gore koja se zove Maslinska, koja je blizu Jerusalima jedan subotni dan hoda.
Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away.
13 I kad uðoše, popeše se u sobu gdje stajahu Petar i Jakov i Jovan i Andrija, Filip i Toma, Vartolomije i Matej, Jakov Alfejev i Simon Zilot, i Juda Jakovljev.
When they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were staying, that is Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.
14 Ovi svi jednodušno bijahu jednako na molitvi i u moljenju sa ženama, i s Marijom materom Isusovom i braæom njegovom.
All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer and supplication, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
15 I u dane one ustavši Petar izmeðu uèenika reèe a bijaše naroda zajedno oko sto i dvadeset imena):
In these days, Peter stood up in the middle of the disciples (and the number of names was about one hundred twenty), and said,
16 Ljudi braæo! trebalo je da se izvrši ono pismo što proreèe Duh sveti ustima Davidovijem za Judu koji bješe pred onima što uhvatiše Isusa;
“Brothers, it was necessary that this Scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus.
17 Jer se brojaše s nama, i bijaše primio dijel ove službe.
For he was counted with us, and received his portion in this ministry.
18 On dakle steèe njivu od plate nepravedne, i objesivši se puèe po srijedi, i izasu se sva utroba njegova.
Now this man obtained a field with the reward for his wickedness; and falling headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines gushed out.
19 I postade znano svima koji žive u Jerusalimu da æe se ta njiva prozvati njihovijem jezikom Akeldama, koje znaèi njiva krvna.
It became known to everyone who lived in Jerusalem that in their language that field was called ‘Akeldama,’ that is, ‘The field of blood.’
20 Jer se piše u knjizi psaltiru: da bude dvor njegov pust, i da ne bude nikoga ko bi življeo u njemu, i: vladièanstvo njegovo da primi drugi.
For it is written in the book of Psalms, ‘Let his habitation be made desolate. Let no one dwell in it;’ and, ‘Let another take his office.’
21 Treba dakle od ovijeh ljudi koji su bili s nama za sve vrijeme kako meðu nas uðe i iziðe Gospod Isus,
“Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
22 Poèevši od krštenja Jovanova do dana kad se uze od nas, da bude s nama svjedok njegova vaskrsenija jedan od ovijeh.
beginning from the baptism of John to the day that he was received up from us, of these one must become a witness with us of his resurrection.”
23 I postaviše dvojicu, Josifa koji se zvaše Varsava prezimenom Just, i Matija.
They put forward two: Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also called Justus, and Matthias.
24 I pomolivši se Bogu rekoše: ti, Gospode! koji poznaješ srca sviju, pokaži jednoga od ove dvojice koga si izabrao,
They prayed and said, “You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men, show which one of these two you have chosen
25 Da primi dijel ove službe i apostolstva, iz koga ispade Juda da ide na mjesto svoje.
to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas fell away, that he might go to his own place.”
26 I baciše kocke za njih, i pade kocka na Matija i primiše ga meðu jedanaest apostola.
They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was counted with the eleven apostles.
