Luka 13
1 Upravo u taj čas dođoše neki te mu javiše što se dogodilo s Galilejcima kojih je krv Pilat pomiješao s krvlju njihovih žrtava.
Just at that time some people had come to tell Jesus about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with the blood of their sacrifices.
2 Isus im odgovori: “Mislite li da ti Galilejci, jer tako postradaše, bijahu grešniji od drugih Galilejaca?
“Do you suppose,” replied Jesus, “that, because these Galileans have suffered in this way, they were worse sinners than any other Galileans?
3 Nipošto, kažem vam, nego ako se ne obratite, svi ćete slično propasti!
No, I tell you; but, unless you repent, you will all perish as they did.
4 Ili onih osamnaest na koje se srušila kula u Siloamu i ubila ih, zar mislite da su oni bili veći dužnici od svih Jeruzalemaca?
Or those eighteen men at Siloam on whom the tower fell, killing them all, do you suppose that they were worse offenders than any other inhabitants of Jerusalem?
5 Nipošto, kažem vam, nego ako se ne obratite, svi ćete tako propasti.”
No, I tell you; but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same manner.”
6 Nato im pripovjedi ovu prispodobu: “Imao netko smokvu zasađenu u svom vinogradu. Dođe tražeć ploda na njoj i ne nađe
And Jesus told them this parable — “A man, who had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, came to look for fruit on it, but could not find any.
7 pa reče vinogradaru: 'Evo, već tri godine dolazim i tražim ploda na ovoj smokvi i ne nalazim. Posijeci je. Zašto da iscrpljuje zemlju?'
So he said to his gardener ‘Three years now I have come to look for fruit on this fig tree, without finding any! Cut it down. Why should it rob the soil?’
8 A on mu odgovori: 'Gospodaru, ostavi je još ove godine dok je ne okopam i ne pognojim.
‘Leave it this one year more, Sir,’ the man answered, ‘till I have dug round it and manured it.
9 Možda će ubuduće ipak uroditi. Ako li ne, posjeći ćeš je.'”
Then, if it bears in future, well and good; but if not, you can have it cut down.’”
10 Jedne je subote naučavao u nekoj sinagogi.
Jesus was teaching on a Sabbath in one of the Synagogues,
11 Kad eto žene koja je osamnaest godina imala duha bolesti. Bila je zgrbljena i nikako se nije mogla uspraviti.
and he saw before him a woman who for eighteen years had suffered from weakness owing to her having an evil spirit in her. She was bent double, and was wholly unable to raise herself.
12 Kad je Isus opazi, dozva je i reče joj: “Ženo, oslobođena si svoje bolesti!”
When Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said: “Woman, you are released from your weakness.”
13 I položi na nju ruke, a ona se umah uspravi i poče slaviti Boga.
He placed his hands on her, and she was instantly made straight, and began to praise God.
14 Nadstojnik sinagoge - ozlovoljen što je Isus u subotu izliječio - govoraše mnoštvu: “Šest je dana u koje treba raditi! U te dakle dane dolazite i liječite se, a ne u dan subotni!”
But the President of the Synagogue, indignant that Jesus had worked the cure on the Sabbath, interposed and said to the people: “There are six days on which work ought to be done; come to be cured on one of those, and not on the Sabbath.”
15 Odgovori mu Gospodin: “Licemjeri! Ne driješi li svaki od vas u subotu svoga vola ili magarca od jasala da ga vodi na vodu?
“You hypocrites!” the Master answered him. “Does not every one of you let his ox or his ass loose from its manger, and take it out to drink, on the Sabbath?
16 Nije li dakle i ovu kćer Abrahamovu, koju Sotona sveza evo osamnaest je već godina, trebalo odriješiti od tih spona u dan subotni?”
But this woman, a daughter of Abraham, who has been kept in bondage by Satan for now eighteen years, ought not she to have been released from her bondage on the Sabbath?”
17 Na te njegove riječi postidješe se svi protivnici njegovi, a sav se narod radovaše zbog svega čime se on proslavio.
As he said this, his opponents all felt ashamed; but all the people rejoiced to see all the wonderful things that he was doing.
18 Govoraše dakle: “Čemu je slično kraljevstvo Božje? Čemu da ga prispodobim?
So Jesus said: “What is the Kingdom of God like? and to what can I liken it?
19 Ono je kao kad čovjek uze gorušičino zrno i baci ga u svoj vrt. Uzraste i razvi se u stablo te mu se ptice nebeske gnijezde po granama.”
It is like a mustard-seed which a man took and put in his garden. The seed grew and became a tree, and ‘the wild birds roosted in its branches.’”
20 I opet im reče: “Čemu da prispodobim kraljevstvo Božje?
And again Jesus said: “To what can I liken the Kingdom of God?
21 Ono je kao kad žena uze kvasac i zamijesi ga u tri mjere brašna dok sve ne uskisne.”
It is like some yeast which a woman took and covered in three pecks of flour, until the whole had risen.”
22 Putujući tako u Jeruzalem, prolazio je i naučavao gradovima i selima.
Jesus went through towns and villages, teaching as he went, and making his way towards Jerusalem.
23 Reče mu tada netko: “Gospodine, je li malo onih koji se spasavaju?” A on im reče:
“Master,” some one asked, “are there but few in the path of Salvation?” And Jesus answered:
24 “Borite se da uđete na uska vrata jer mnogi će, velim vam, tražiti da uđu, ali neće moći.”
“Strive to go in by the small door. Many, I tell you, will seek to go in, but they will not be able,
25 “Kada gospodar kuće ustane i zaključa vrata, a vi stojeći vani počnete kucati na vrata: 'Gospodine, otvori nam!', on će vam odgovoriti: 'Ne znam vas odakle ste!'
when once the master of the house has got up and shut the door, while you begin to say, as you stand outside and knock, ‘Sir, open the door for us.’ His answer will be — ‘I do not know where you come from.’
26 Tada ćete početi govoriti: 'Pa mi smo s tobom jeli i pili, po našim si trgovima naučavao!'
Then you will begin to say ‘We have eaten and drunk in your presence, and you have taught in our streets,’ and his reply will be —
27 A on će vam reći: 'Kažem vam: ne znam odakle ste. Odstupite od mene, svi zlotvori!'”
‘I do not know where you come from. Leave my presence, all you who are living in wickedness.’
28 “Ondje će biti plač i škrgut zubi kad ugledate Abrahama i Izaka i Jakova i sve proroke u kraljevstvu Božjem, a sebe vani, izbačene.
There, there will be weeping and grinding of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the Prophets, in the Kingdom of God, while you yourselves are being driven outside.
29 I doći će s istoka i zapada, sa sjevera i juga i sjesti za stol u kraljevstvu Božjem.
People will come from East and West, and from North and South, and take their places at the banquet in the Kingdom of God.
30 Evo, ima posljednjih koji će biti prvi, ima i prvih koji će biti posljednji.”
there are some who are last now who will then be first, and some who are first now who will then be last!”
31 U taj čas pristupe neki farizeji i reknu mu: “Otiđi, otputuj odavde jer te Herod hoće ubiti.”
Just then some Pharisees came up to Jesus and said: “Go away and leave this place, for Herod wants to kill you.”
32 A on će njima: “Idite i kažite toj lisici: 'Evo, izgonim đavle i liječim danas i sutra, a treći dan dovršujem.
But Jesus answered: “Go and say to that fox ‘Look you, I am driving out demons and shall be completing cures to-day and to-morrow, and on the third day I shall have done.’
33 Ali danas, sutra i prekosutra moram nastaviti put jer ne priliči da prorok pogine izvan Jeruzalema.'”
But to-day and to-morrow and the day after I must go on my way, because it cannot be that a Prophet should meet his end outside Jerusalem.
34 “Jeruzaleme, Jeruzaleme, koji ubijaš proroke i kamenuješ one što su tebi poslani! Koliko li puta htjedoh skupiti djecu tvoju kao kvočka piliće pod krila i ne htjedoste!
Jerusalem! Jerusalem! she who slays the Prophets and stones the messengers sent to her — Oh, how often have I wished to gather your children round me, as a hen takes her brood under her wings, and you would not come!
35 Evo, napuštena vam kuća. A kažem vam, nećete me vidjeti dok ne dođe čas te reknete: “Blagoslovljen Onaj koji dolazi u ime Gospodnje!”
Verily your House is left to you desolate! and never, I tell you, shall you see me, until you say — ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
