< Luke 13 >

1 Now there were some present at that very season who told him of the Galilæans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
Upravo u taj čas dođoše neki te mu javiše što se dogodilo s Galilejcima kojih je krv Pilat pomiješao s krvlju njihovih žrtava.
2 And he answered and said unto them, Think ye that these Galilæans were sinners above all the Galilæans, because they have suffered these things?
Isus im odgovori: “Mislite li da ti Galilejci, jer tako postradaše, bijahu grešniji od drugih Galilejaca?
3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all in like manner perish.
Nipošto, kažem vam, nego ako se ne obratite, svi ćete slično propasti!
4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them, think ye that they were offenders above all the men that dwell in Jerusalem?
Ili onih osamnaest na koje se srušila kula u Siloamu i ubila ih, zar mislite da su oni bili veći dužnici od svih Jeruzalemaca?
5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Nipošto, kažem vam, nego ako se ne obratite, svi ćete tako propasti.”
6 And he spake this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit thereon, and found none.
Nato im pripovjedi ovu prispodobu: “Imao netko smokvu zasađenu u svom vinogradu. Dođe tražeć ploda na njoj i ne nađe
7 And he said unto the vinedresser, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why doth it also cumber the ground?
pa reče vinogradaru: 'Evo, već tri godine dolazim i tražim ploda na ovoj smokvi i ne nalazim. Posijeci je. Zašto da iscrpljuje zemlju?'
8 And he answering saith unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
A on mu odgovori: 'Gospodaru, ostavi je još ove godine dok je ne okopam i ne pognojim.
9 and if it bear fruit thenceforth, [well]; but if not, thou shalt cut it down.
Možda će ubuduće ipak uroditi. Ako li ne, posjeći ćeš je.'”
10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath day.
Jedne je subote naučavao u nekoj sinagogi.
11 And behold, a woman that had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years; and she was bowed together, and could in no wise lift herself up.
Kad eto žene koja je osamnaest godina imala duha bolesti. Bila je zgrbljena i nikako se nije mogla uspraviti.
12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
Kad je Isus opazi, dozva je i reče joj: “Ženo, oslobođena si svoje bolesti!”
13 And he laid his hands upon her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
I položi na nju ruke, a ona se umah uspravi i poče slaviti Boga.
14 And the ruler of the synagogue, being moved with indignation because Jesus had healed on the sabbath, answered and said to the multitude, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the day of the sabbath.
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!”
15 But the Lord answered him, and said, Ye hypocrites, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering?
Odgovori mu Gospodin: “Licemjeri! Ne driješi li svaki od vas u subotu svoga vola ili magarca od jasala da ga vodi na vodu?
16 And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, lo, [these] eighteen years, to have been loosed from this bond on the day of the sabbath?
Nije li dakle i ovu kćer Abrahamovu, koju Sotona sveza evo osamnaest je već godina, trebalo odriješiti od tih spona u dan subotni?”
17 And as he said these things, all his adversaries were put to shame: and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
Na te njegove riječi postidješe se svi protivnici njegovi, a sav se narod radovaše zbog svega čime se on proslavio.
18 He said therefore, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I liken it?
Govoraše dakle: “Čemu je slično kraljevstvo Božje? Čemu da ga prispodobim?
19 It is like unto a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his own garden; and it grew, and became a tree; and the birds of the heaven lodged in the branches thereof.
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.”
20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?
I opet im reče: “Čemu da prispodobim kraljevstvo Božje?
21 It is like unto leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.
Ono je kao kad žena uze kvasac i zamijesi ga u tri mjere brašna dok sve ne uskisne.”
22 And he went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and journeying on unto Jerusalem.
Putujući tako u Jeruzalem, prolazio je i naučavao gradovima i selima.
23 And one said unto him, Lord, are they few that are saved? And he said unto them,
Reče mu tada netko: “Gospodine, je li malo onih koji se spasavaju?” A on im reče:
24 Strive to enter in by the narrow door: for many, I say unto you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
“Borite se da uđete na uska vrata jer mnogi će, velim vam, tražiti da uđu, ali neće moći.”
25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not whence ye are;
“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!'
26 then shall ye begin to say, We did eat and drink in thy presence, and thou didst teach in our streets;
Tada ćete početi govoriti: 'Pa mi smo s tobom jeli i pili, po našim si trgovima naučavao!'
27 and he shall say, I tell you, I know not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
A on će vam reći: 'Kažem vam: ne znam odakle ste. Odstupite od mene, svi zlotvori!'”
28 There shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and yourselves cast forth without.
“Ondje će biti plač i škrgut zubi kad ugledate Abrahama i Izaka i Jakova i sve proroke u kraljevstvu Božjem, a sebe vani, izbačene.
29 And they shall come from the east and west, and from the north and south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.
I doći će s istoka i zapada, sa sjevera i juga i sjesti za stol u kraljevstvu Božjem.
30 And behold, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.
Evo, ima posljednjih koji će biti prvi, ima i prvih koji će biti posljednji.”
31 In that very hour there came certain Pharisees, saying to him, Get thee out, and go hence: for Herod would fain kill thee.
U taj čas pristupe neki farizeji i reknu mu: “Otiđi, otputuj odavde jer te Herod hoće ubiti.”
32 And he said unto them, Go and say to that fox, Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures to-day and to-morrow, and the third [day] I am perfected.
A on će njima: “Idite i kažite toj lisici: 'Evo, izgonim đavle i liječim danas i sutra, a treći dan dovršujem.
33 Nevertheless I must go on my way to-day and to-morrow and the [day] following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.
Ali danas, sutra i prekosutra moram nastaviti put jer ne priliči da prorok pogine izvan Jeruzalema.'”
34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen [gathereth] her own brood under her wings, and ye would not!
“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!
35 Behold, your house is left unto you [desolate]: and I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until ye shall say, Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
Evo, napuštena vam kuća. A kažem vam, nećete me vidjeti dok ne dođe čas te reknete: “Blagoslovljen Onaj koji dolazi u ime Gospodnje!”
