Acts 1

The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

Prvu sam knjigu, Teofile, sastavio o svemu što je Isus činio i učio

Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:

do dana kad je uznesen pošto je dao upute apostolima koje je izabrao po Duhu Svetome.

To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:

Njima je poslije svoje muke mnogim dokazima pokazao da je živ, četrdeset im se dana ukazivao i govorio o kraljevstvu Božjem.

And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.

I dok je jednom s njima blagovao, zapovjedi im da ne napuštaju Jeruzalema, nego neka čekaju Obećanje Očevo "koje čuste od mene:

For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

Ivan je krstio vodom, a vi ćete naskoro nakon ovih dana biti kršteni Duhom Svetim."

When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

Nato ga sabrani upitaše: "Gospodine, hoćeš li u ovo vrijeme Izraelu opet uspostaviti kraljevstvo?"

And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

On im odgovori: "Nije vaše znati vremena i zgode koje je Otac podredio svojoj vlasti.

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Nego primit ćete snagu Duha Svetoga koji će sići na vas i bit ćete mi svjedoci u Jeruzalemu, po svoj Judeji i Samariji i sve do kraja zemlje."

And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

Kada to reče, bi uzdignut njima naočigled i oblak ga ote njihovim očima.

And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

I dok su netremice gledali kako on odlazi na nebo, gle, dva čovjeka stadoše kraj njih u bijeloj odjeći

Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

i rekoše im: "Galilejci, što stojite i gledate u nebo? Ovaj Isus koji je od vas uznesen na nebo isto će tako doći kao što ste vidjeli da odlazi na nebo."

Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.

Onda se vratiše u Jeruzalem s brda zvanoga Maslinsko, koje je blizu Jeruzalema, udaljeno jedan subotni hod.

And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.

I pošto uđu u grad, uspnu se u gornju sobu gdje su boravili: Petar i Ivan i Jakov i Andrija, Filip i Toma, Bartolomej i Matej, Jakov Alfejev i Šimun Revnitelj i Juda Jakovljev -

These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.

svi oni bijahu jednodušno postojani u molitvi sa ženama, i Marijom, majkom Isusovom, i braćom njegovom.

And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,)

U one dane ustade Petar među braćom - a bijaše sakupljenog naroda oko sto i dvadeset duša - i reče:

Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.

"Braćo! Trebalo je da se ispuni Pismo što ga na usta Davidova proreče Duh Sveti o Judi koji bijaše vođa onih što uhvatiše Isusa.

For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.

A Juda se ubrajao među nas i imao udio u ovoj službi.

Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

On, eto, steče predio cijenom nepravednosti pa se stropošta, raspuče po sredini i razli mu se sva utroba.

And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.

I svim je Jeruzalemcima znano da se onaj predio njihovim jezikom zove Akeldama, to jest Predio smrti.

For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.

Pisano je doista u Knjizi psalama: Njegova kuća nek opusti, nek ne bude stanovnika u njoj! Njegovo nadgledništvo nek dobije drugi!

Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

Jedan dakle od ovih ljudi što bijahu s nama za sve vrijeme što je među nama živio Gospodin Isus -

Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.

počevši od krštenja Ivanova pa sve do dana kad bi uzet od nas - treba da bude svjedokom njegova uskrsnuća.

And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

I postaviše dvojicu: Josipa koji se zvao Barsaba a prozvao se Just, i Matiju.

And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen,

Onda se pomoliše: "Ti, Gospodine, poznavaoče svih srdaca, pokaži koga si od ove dvojice izabrao

That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.

da primi mjesto ove apostolske službe kojoj se iznevjeri Juda da ode na svoje mjesto."

And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

Onda baciše kocke i kocka pade na Matiju; tako bi pribrojen jedanaestorici apostola.
