Luki 3
1 U petnaestoj godini vladanja æesara Tiverija, kad bješe Pontije Pilat sudija u Judeji, i Irod èetverovlasnik u Galileji, a Filip brat njegov èetverovlasnik u Itureji i u Trahonitskoj, i Lisanija èetverovlasnik u Avilini,
NOW in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother tetrarch of Iturea and the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene:
2 Za poglavara sveštenièkijeh Ane i Kajafe, reèe Bog Jovanu sinu Zarijnu u pustinji,
when Annas and Caiaphas were high-priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness;
3 I doðe u svu okolinu Jordansku propovijedajuæi krštenje pokajanja za oproštenje grijeha;
and he came into all the country on the confines of Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
4 Kao što je napisano u knjizi rijeèi proroka Isaije koji govori: glas onoga što vièe u pustinji: pripravite put Gospodnji; poravnite staze njegove;
as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah, saying, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths strait:
5 Sve doline neka se ispune, i sve gore i bregovi neka se slegnu; i što je krivo neka bude pravo, i hrapavi putovi neka budu glatki;
every valley shall be filled up, and every mountain and hill shall be levelled, and the crooked ways made strait, and the rough roads smooth:
6 I svako æe tijelo vidjeti spasenije Božije.
and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.”
7 Jovan pak govoraše ljudima koji izlažahu da ih krsti: porodi aspidini! ko vam kaza da bježite od gnjeva koji ide?
He said, therefore, to the multitudes who came out to be baptised by him, Ye broods of vipers, who hath warned you to fly from the approaching wrath?
8 Rodite dakle rodove dostojne pokajanja, i ne govorite u sebi: oca imamo Avraama; jer vam kažem da Bog može i od ovoga kamenja podignuti djecu Avraamu.
Produce then fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say in yourselves, We have a father, even Abraham; for I say unto you, That God is able out of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
9 Jer veæ i sjekira stoji drvetu kod korijena; i svako drvo koje dobra roda ne raða sijeèe se i u oganj se baca.
But now is the ax laid even to the root of the trees; every tree therefore that produceth not good fruit, is cut down and cast into the fire.
10 I pitahu ga ljudi govoreæi: šta æemo dakle èiniti?
And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then shall we do?
11 On pak odgovarajuæi reèe im: koji ima dvije haljine neka da jednu onome koji nema; i ko ima hrane neka èini tako.
And he answering said to them, He that hath two coats, let him give to him that hath none; and he that hath provisions, let him do in like manner.
12 Doðoše pak i carinici da ih krsti, i rekoše mu: uèitelju! šta æemo èiniti?
Then came also the farmers of the taxes to be baptised, and they said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
13 A on im reèe: ne ištite više nego što vam je reèeno.
He said unto them, Exact nothing more than is appointed for you.
14 Pitahu ga pak i vojnici govoreæi: a mi šta æemo èiniti? I reèe im: nikome da ne èinite sile niti koga da opadate, i budite zadovoljni svojom platom.
And the military men also asked him, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Extort nothing by force; nor turn informers; and be content with your pay.
15 A kad narod bješe u sumnji i pomišljahu svi u srcima svojijem za Jovana: da nije on Hristos?
Now when the people were in expectation, and many reasoned in their hearts respecting John, whether he were the Messiah,
16 Odgovaraše Jovan svima govoreæi: ja vas krstim vodom; ali ide za mnom jaèi od mene, kome ja nijesam dostojan odriješiti remena na obuæi njegovoj; on æe vas krstiti Duhom svetijem i ognjem.
John addressed himself to them all, saying, I indeed baptise you with water; but one mightier than I is coming, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie: he shall baptise you with the Holy Ghost and with fire;
17 On ima lopatu u ruci svojoj, i oèistiæe gumno svoje, i skupiæe pšenicu svoju, a pljevu æe sažeæi ognjem vjeènijem.
whose winnowing fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor, and collect the wheat into his granary; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
18 I drugo mnogo koješta javlja narodu i napominja.
Thus in many and various discourses exhorting them, he preached the glad tidings of the gospel to the people.
19 Iroda pak èetverovlasnika koraše Jovan za Irodijadu, ženu brata njegova, i za sva zla što uèini Irod;
Now Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him, on account of Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the other wicked actions which he had done,
20 I svrh svega uèini i to te zatvori Jovana u tamnicu.
added this also to all the rest, and shut up John in prison.
21 A kad se krsti sav narod, i Isus pošto se krsti i moljaše se Bogu, otvori se nebo,
Now it came to pass, at the time when John was baptising all the people, that Jesus also was baptised, and as he prayed, the heaven was opened,
22 I siðe na nj Duh sveti u tjelesnome obliku kao golub, i èu se glas s neba govoreæi: ti si sin moj ljubazni, ti si po mojoj volji.
and the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily form, like a dove, upon him, and a voice came from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I am well pleased.
23 I taj Isus imaše oko trideset godina kad poèe; i bješe, kao što se mišljaše, sin Josifa sina Ilijna,
And Jesus himself was about thirty years of age when he began his ministry, being (as was supposed the son of Joseph) of Heli,
