Luke 16
1 He also said to his disciples, “There was a certain rich man who had a manager. An accusation was made to him that this man was wasting his possessions.
A uèenicima svojijem govoraše: bijaše jedan èovjek bogat koji imaše pristava, i toga oblagaše kod njega da mu prosipa imanje.
2 He called him, and said to him, ‘What is this that I hear about you? Give an accounting of your management, for you can no longer be manager.’
I dozvavši ga reèe mu: šta ovo ja èujem za tebe? Daj raèun kako si kuæio kuæu: jer više ne možeš kuæom upravljati.
3 “The manager said within himself, ‘What will I do, seeing that my lord is taking away the management position from me? I don’t have strength to dig. I am ashamed to beg.
A pristav od kuæe reèe u sebi: šta æu èiniti? gospodar moj uzima od mene upravljanje kuæe: kopati ne mogu, prositi stidim se.
4 I know what I will do, so that when I am removed from management, they may receive me into their houses.’
Znam šta æu èiniti da bi me primili u kuæe svoje kad mi se oduzme upravljanje kuæe.
5 Calling each one of his lord’s debtors to him, he said to the first, ‘How much do you owe to my lord?’
I dozvavši redom dužnike gospodara svojega reèe prvome: koliko si dužan gospodaru mojemu?
6 He said, ‘A hundred batos of oil.’ He said to him, ‘Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.’
A on reèe: sto oka ulja. I reèe mu: uzmi pismo svoje i sjedi brzo te napiši pedeset.
7 Then he said to another, ‘How much do you owe?’ He said, ‘A hundred cors of wheat.’ He said to him, ‘Take your bill, and write eighty.’
A potom reèe drugome: a ti koliko si dužan? A on reèe: sto oka pšenice. I reèe mu: uzmi pismo svoje i napiši osamdeset.
8 “His lord commended the dishonest manager because he had done wisely, for the children of this world are, in their own generation, wiser than the children of the light. (aiōn g165)
I pohvali gospodar nevjernoga pristava što mudro uèini; jer su sinovi ovoga vijeka mudriji od sinova vidjela u svojemu naraštaju. (aiōn g165)
9 I tell you, make for yourselves friends by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when you fail, they may receive you into the eternal tents. (aiōnios g166)
I ja vama kažem: naèinite sebi prijatelje nepravednijem bogatstvom, da bi vas kad osiromašite primili u vjeène kuæe. (aiōnios g166)
10 He who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much. He who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.
Koji je vjeran u malom i u mnogom je vjeran; a ko je nevjeran u malom i u mnogom je nevjeran.
11 If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
Ako dakle u nepravednom bogatstvu vjerni ne biste, ko æe vam u istinom vjerovati?
12 If you have not been faithful in that which is another’s, who will give you that which is your own?
I ako u tuðem ne biste vjerni, ko æe vam dati vaše?
13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will hold to one and despise the other. You aren’t able to serve God and Mammon.”
Nikakav pak sluga ne može dva gospodara služiti; jer ili æe na jednoga mrziti a drugoga ljubiti, ili æe jednome voljeti a za drugoga ne mariti. Ne možete služiti Bogu i bogatstvu.
14 The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they scoffed at him.
A ovo sve slušahu i fariseji, koji bijahu srebroljupci, i rugahu mu se.
15 He said to them, “You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts. For that which is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God.
I reèe im: vi ste oni koji se gradite pravedni pred ljudima; ali Bog zna srca vaša; jer što je u ljudi visoko ono je mrzost pred Bogom.
16 “The law and the prophets were until John. From that time the Good News of God’s Kingdom is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
Zakon i proroci su do Jovana; otsele se carstvo Božije propovijeda jevanðeljem, i svaki navaljuje da uðe u njega.
17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tiny stroke of a pen in the law to fall.
Lašnje je pak nebu i zemlji proæi negoli jednoj titli iz zakona propasti.
18 “Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery. He who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery.
Svaki koji pušta ženu svoju i uzima drugu, preljubu èini; i koji se ženi puštenicom, preljubu èini.
19 “Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.
Èovjek neki pak bješe bogat, koji se oblaèaše u skerlet i u svilu, i življaše svaki dan gospodski i veseljaše se.
20 A certain beggar, named Lazarus, was taken to his gate, full of sores,
A bijaše jedan siromah, po imenu Lazar, koji ležaše pred njegovijem vratima gnojav,
21 and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Yes, even the dogs came and licked his sores.
I željaše da se nasiti mrvama koje padahu s trpeze bogatoga; još i psi dolažahu i lizahu gnoj njegov.
22 The beggar died, and he was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was buried.
A kad umrije siromah, odnesoše ga anðeli u naruèje Avraamovo; a umrije i bogati, i zakopaše ga.
23 In Hades, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
I u paklu kad bješe u mukama podiže oèi svoje i ugleda izdaleka Avraama i Lazara u naruèju njegovu, (Hadēs g86)
24 He cried and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue! For I am in anguish in this flame.’
I povikavši reèe: oèe Avraame! smiluj se na me i pošlji mi Lazara neka umoèi u vodu vrh od prsta svojega, i da mi rashladi jezik; jer se muèim u ovome plamenu.
25 “But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that you, in your lifetime, received your good things, and Lazarus, in the same way, bad things. But here he is now comforted and you are in anguish.
A Avraam reèe: sinko! opomeni se da si ti primio dobra svoja u životu svome, i Lazar opet zla; a sad se on tješi, a ti se muèiš.
26 Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that those who want to pass from here to you are not able, and that no one may cross over from there to us.’
I preko svega toga postavljena je meðu nama i vama velika propast, da oni koji bi htjeli odovud k vama prijeæi, ne mogu, niti oni otuda k nama da prelaze.
27 “He said, ‘I ask you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father’s house—
Tada reèe: molim te dakle, oèe, da ga pošalješ kuæi oca mojega,
28 for I have five brothers—that he may testify to them, so they won’t also come into this place of torment.’
Jer imam pet braæe: neka im posvjedoèi da ne bi i oni došli na ovo mjesto muèenja.
29 “But Abraham said to him, ‘They have Moses and the prophets. Let them listen to them.’
Reèe mu Avraam: oni imaju Mojsija i proroke, neka njih slušaju.
30 “He said, ‘No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’
A on reèe: ne, oèe Avraame! nego ako im doðe ko iz mrtvijeh pokajaæe se.
31 “He said to him, ‘If they don’t listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rises from the dead.’”
A Avraam mu reèe: ako ne slušaju Mojsija i proroka, da ko i iz mrtvijeh ustane neæe vjerovati.
