Acts 13

Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

U antiohijskoj je Crkvi bilo proroka i učitelja: Barnaba, Šimun zvani Niger, Lucije Cirenac, Manahen, suothranjenik Heroda četverovlasnika, i Savao.

As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

Dok su jednom obavljali službu Božju i postili, reče Duh Sveti: "De mi odlučite Barnabu i Savla za djelo na koje sam ih pozvao."

And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.

Onda su postili, molili, položili na njih ruke i otpustili ih.

So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.

Poslani od Svetoga Duha siđu u Seleuciju, a odande odjedre na Cipar.

And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their minister.

Kad se nađoše u Salamini, navješćivahu riječ Božju u židovskim sinagogama. Imali su i Ivana za poslužitelja.

And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus:

Pošto pak prođoše sav otok do Pafa, nađoše nekog vračara, nazoviproroka, Židova, imenom Barjesu.

Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.

On bijaše uz namjesnika Sergija Pavla, čovjeka razborita. Sergije dozva Barnabu i Savla te zaiska čuti riječ Božju,

But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.

ali im se usprotivi Elim, Vračar - tako mu se ime prevodi - nastojeći odvratiti namjesnika od vjere.

Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,

Savao pak, zvan i Pavao, pun Duha Svetoga, ošinu ga pogledom

And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

i reče: "Pun svake lukavosti i prevrtljivosti, sine đavolski, neprijatelju svake pravednosti, zar nikako da prestaneš iskrivljavati ravne putove Gospodnje?

And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

Evo stoga sada ruke Gospodnje na tebi: oslijepljet ćeš i neko vrijeme nećeš gledati sunca!" Odmah pade na nj mrak i tama te on glavinjajući stade tražiti ruke vodilje.

Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

Videći što se dogodilo, povjerova tada namjesnik, zanesen naukom Gospodnjim.

Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.

Pošto se Pavao i oni oko njega otisnuše od Pafa, stigoše u Pergu pamfilijsku. Ivan ih napusti te se vrati u Jeruzalem.

But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.

Oni pak krenuše iz Perge i stigoše u Antiohiju pizidijsku. U dan subotni ušli su u sinagogu i sjeli.

And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.

Nakon čitanja Zakona i Proroka pošalju nadstojnici sinagoge k njima: "Braćo, rekoše, ima li u vas koja riječ utjehe za narod, govorite!"

Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.

Nato usta Pavao, dadne rukom znak i reče: "Izraelci i vi koji se Boga bojite, čujte!

The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.

Bog naroda ovoga, Izraela, izabra oce naše i uzdiže narod za boravka u zemlji egipatskoj te ga ispruženom rukom izvede iz nje.

And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.

Oko četrdeset ga je godina na rukama nosio u pustinji

And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.

pa pošto zatre sedam naroda u zemlji kanaanskoj, ubaštini ga u zemlji njihovoj

And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.

za kakve četiri stotine i pedeset godina. Nakon toga dade im suce - do Samuela proroka.

And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.

Onda zaiskaše kralja pa im Bog za četrdeset godina dade Šaula, sina Kiševa, iz plemena Benjaminova.

And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

Pošto svrgnu njega, podiže im za kralja Davida za kojega posvjedoči: Nađoh Davida, sina Jišajeva, čovjeka po svom srcu, koji će ispuniti sve moje želje.

Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

Iz njegova potomstva izvede Bog po svom obećanju Izraelu Spasitelja, Isusa.

When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

Pred njegovim je dolaskom Ivan propovijedao krštenje obraćenja svemu narodu izraelskomu.

And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.

A kad je Ivan dovršavao svoju trku, govorio je: 'Nisam ja onaj za koga me vi držite. Nego za mnom evo dolazi onaj komu ja nisam dostojan odriješiti obuće na nogama.'"

Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.

"Braćo, sinovi roda Abrahamova, vi i oni koji se među vama Boga boje, nama je upravljena ova Riječ spasenja.

For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.

Doista, žitelji Jeruzalema i glavari njihovi ne upoznaše njega ni riječi proročkih što se čitaju svake subote pa ih, osudivši ga, ispuniše.

And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.

Premda ne nađoše nikakva razloga smrti, zatražiše od Pilata da ga smakne.

And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.

Pošto pak izvršiše sve što je o njemu napisano, skinuše ga s drveta i položiše u grob.

But God raised him from the dead:

Ali Bog ga uskrisi od mrtvih.

And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.

On se mnogo dana ukazivao onima koji s njim bijahu uzašli iz Galileje u Jeruzalem. Oni su sada njegovi svjedoci pred narodom."

And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,

"I mi vam navješćujemo evanđelje: obećanje dano ocima

God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

Bog je ispunio djeci, nama, uskrisivši Isusa, kao što je i pisano u Psalmu drugom: Ti si Sin moj, danas te rodih.

And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.

Da ga pak uskrisi od mrtvih te se on više nikad neće vratiti u trulež, rekao je ovime: Dat ću vama svetinje Davidove, pouzdane.

Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Zato i na drugome mjestu kaže: Nećeš dati da Svetac tvoj ugleda truleži.

For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:

David doista, pošto u svom naraštaju posluži volji Božjoj, preminu, pridruži se ocima svojim i vidje trulež,

But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.

a Onaj koga Bog uskrisi ne vidje truleži.

Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:

/

And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

Neka vam dakle braćo, znano bude: po Ovome vam se navješćuje oproštenje grijeha! Po Ovome se tko god vjeruje, opravdava od svega od čega se po Mojsijevu zakonu niste mogli opravdati!

Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;

Pazite da se ne zbude što je rečeno u Prorocima:

Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.

Obazrite se, preziratelji, snebijte se i nestanite! Jer djelo činim u dane vaše, djelo u koje ne biste vjerovali da vam ga tko ispriča."

And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.

Na izlasku su ih molili da im iduće subote o tome govore.

Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

A pošto se skup raspustio, mnogi Židovi i bogobojazne pridošlice pođoše za Pavlom i Barnabom koji su ih nagovarali ustrajati u milosti Božjoj.

And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.

Iduće se subote gotovo sav grad zgrnu čuti riječ Gospodnju.

But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.

Kad su Židovi ugledali mnoštvo, puni zavisti psujući suprotstavljali su se onomu što je Pavao govorio.

Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

Na to im Pavao i Barnaba smjelo rekoše: "Trebalo je da se najprije vama navijesti riječ Božja. Ali kad je odbacujete i sami sebe ne smatrate dostojnima života vječnoga, obraćamo se evo poganima.

For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.

Jer ovako nam je zapovjedio Gospodin: Postavih te za svjetlost poganima, da budeš na spasenje do nakraj zemlje.

And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

Pogani koji su slušali radovali su se i slavili riječ Gospodnju te povjerovaše oni koji bijahu određeni za život vječni.

And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.

Riječ se pak Gospodnja pronese po svoj onoj pokrajini.

But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.

Ali Židovi potakoše ugledne bogobojazne žene i prvake gradske te zametnuše progon protiv Pavla i Barnabe pa ih izbaciše iz svoga kraja.

But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.

Oni pak stresu prašinu s nogu protiv njih pa odu u Ikonij.

And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.

A učenici su se ispunjali radošću i Duhom Svetim.
