Acts 13

1 Now in the church that was at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

A u crkvi koja bješe u Antiohiji bijahu neki proroci i uèitelji, to jest: Varnava i Simeun koji se zvaše Nigar, i Lukije Kirinac, i Manail odgajeni s Irodom èetverovlasnikom, i Savle.

2 As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, "Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them."

A kad oni služahu Gospodu i pošæahu, reèe Duh sveti: odvojte mi Varnavu i Savla na djelo na koje ih pozvah.

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

Tada postivši i pomolivši se Bogu metnuše ruke na njih, i otpustiše ih.

4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.

Ovi dakle poslani od Duha svetoga siðoše u Seleukiju, i odande otploviše u Kipar.

5 When they were at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. They had also John as their attendant.

I došavši u Salamin javiše rijeè Božiju u zbornicama Jevrejskima; a imahu i Jovana slugu.

6 When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a Jewish false prophet whose name was Bar-Jesus,

A kad proðoše ostrvo tja do Pafa, naðoše nekakvoga èovjeka vraèara i lažna proroka, Jevrejina, kome bješe ime Varisus,

7 who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear the word of God.

Koji bješe s namjesnikom Srðem Pavlom, èovjekom razumnijem. Ovaj dozvavši Varnavu i Savla zaiska da èuje rijeè Božiju.

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

A Elima vraèar jer to znaèi ime njegovo) stade im se suprotiti, gledajuæi da odvrati namjesnika od vjere.

9 But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him,

A Savle koji se zvaše i Pavle, pun Duha svetoga pogledavši na nj

10 and said, "Full of all deceit and all fraud, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

Reèe: o napunjeni svakoga lukavstva i svake pakosti, sine ðavolji! neprijatelju svake pravde! zar ne prestaješ kvariti pravijeh putova Gospodnjijeh?

11 Now, look, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind, unable to see the sun for a time." Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him. He went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.

I sad eto ruke Gospodnje na te, i da budeš slijep da ne vidiš sunca za neko vrijeme. I ujedanput napade na nj mrak i tama, i pipajuæi tražaše voða.

12 Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.

Tada namjesnik, kad vidje šta bi, vjerova, diveæi se nauci Gospodnjoj.

13 Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphylia, and John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.

A kad se Pavle sa svojijem društvom odveze iz Pafa, doðoše u Pergu Pamfilijsku; a Jovan se odvoji od njih, i vrati se u Jerusalim.

14 But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down.

A oni otišavši iz Perge doðoše u Antiohiju Pisidijsku, i ušavši u zbornicu u dan subotni sjedoše.

15 After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, "Brothers, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, speak."

A po èitanju zakona i proroka poslaše starješine zbornièke k njima govoreæi: ljudi braæo! ako je u vama rijeè utjehe za narod, govorite.

16 Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, "Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen.

A Pavle ustavši i mahnuvši rukom reèe: ljudi Izrailjci i koji se Boga bojite! èujte.

17 The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed as foreigners in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them out of it.

Bog naroda ovoga izabra oce naše, i podiže narod kad bijahu došljaci u zemlji Misirskoj, i rukom visokom izvede ih iz nje.

18 For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.

I do èetrdeset godina prehrani ih u pustinji.

19 When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance.

I zatrvši sedam naroda u zemlji Hanaanskoj na kocke razdijeli im zemlju njihovu.

20 All this took about four hundred and fifty years. And after these things he gave them judges, until Samuel the prophet.

I potom na èetiri stotine i pedeset godina dade im sudije do Samuila proroka.

21 Afterward they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.

I od tada iskaše cara, i dade im Bog Saula, sina Kisova, èovjeka od koljena Venijaminova, za èetrdeset godina.

22 When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, 'I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my will.'

I uklonivši njega podiže im Davida za cara, kome i reèe svjedoèeæi: naðoh Davida sina Jesejeva, èovjeka po srcu mojemu, koji æe ispuniti sve volje moje.

23 From this man's offspring, according to his promise, God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus,

Od njegova sjemena podiže Bog po obeæanju Izrailju spasa Isusa;

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

Kad Jovan pred njegovijem dolaskom propovijeda krštenje pokajanja svemu narodu Izrailjevu.

25 As John was fulfilling his course, he said, 'What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. But look, one comes after me the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'

I kad svršivaše Jovan teèenje svoje, govoraše: ko mislite da sam ja nijesam ja; nego evo ide za mnom, kome ja nijesam dostojan razdriješiti remena na obuæi njegovoj.

26 Brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, the word of this salvation is sent out to us.

Ljudi braæo! sinovi roda Avraamova, i koji se meðu vama Boga boje! vama se posla rijeè ovoga spasenija.

27 For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they did not know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.

Jer oni što žive u Jerusalimu, i knezovi njihovi, ne poznaše ovoga i glasove proroèke koji se èitaju svake subote osudivši ga izvršiše.

28 Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.

I ne našavši ni jedne krivice smrtne moliše Pilata da ga pogubi.

29 When they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree, and placed him in a tomb.

I kad svršiše sve što je pisano za njega, skinuše ga s drveta i metnuše u grob.

30 But God raised him from the dead,

A Bog vaskrse ga iz mrtvijeh.

31 and he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.

I pokaziva se mnogo dana onima što izlaziše s njim iz Galileje u Jerusalim, koji su sad svjedoci njegovi pred narodom.

32 We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,

I mi vam javljamo obeæanje koje bi ocevima našima da je ovo Bog ispunio nama, djeci njihovoj, podignuvši Isusa;

33 that God has fulfilled for us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second psalm, 'You are my Son. Today I have become your Father.'

Kao što je napisano i u drugom psalmu: ti si moj sin, ja te danas rodih.

34 "Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: 'I will give to you the faithful sacred things of David.'

A da ga iz mrtvijeh vaskrse da se više ne vrati u truhljenje ovako reèe: daæu vam svetinju Davidovu vjernu.

35 Therefore he says also in another psalm, 'You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.'

Zato i na drugom mjestu govori: neæeš dati da tvoj svetac vidi truhljenja.

36 For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was placed with his fathers, and saw decay.

Jer David posluživši rodu svojemu po volji Božijoj umrije, i metnuše ga kod otaca njegovijeh, i vidje truhljenje.

37 But he whom God raised up saw no decay.

A kojega Bog podiže ne vidje truhljenja.

38 Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you forgiveness of sins,

Tako da vam je na znanje, ljudi braæo! da se kroza nj vama propovijeda oproštenje grijeha.

39 and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the Law of Moses.

I od svega, oda šta se ne mogoste opravdati u zakonu Mojsijevu, opravdaæe se u njemu svaki koji vjeruje.

40 So beware, lest what is said in the Prophets should come about:

Gledajte dakle da ne doðe na vas ono što je kazano u prorocima:

41 'Look, you scoffers, and be amazed, and perish; for I am working a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, if one tells it to you.'"

Vidite, nemarljivi! i èudite se, i nek vas nestane; jer ja èinim djelo u dane vaše, djelo koje neæete vjerovati ako vam ko uskazuje.

42 So when they went out they urged them to speak about these things on the next Sabbath.

A kad izlažahu iz zbornice Jevrejske, moljahu neznabošci da im se ove rijeèi u drugu subotu govore.

43 Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.

A kad se sabor raziðe, poðoše za Pavlom i za Varnavom mnogi od Jevreja i pobožnijeh došljaka; a oni govoreæi im svjetovahu ih da ostanu u blagodati Božijoj.

44 The next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of the Lord.

A u drugu subotu sabra se gotovo sav grad da èuju rijeèi Božije.

45 But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and reviled him.

A kad vidješe Jevreji narod, napuniše se zavisti, i govorahu protivno rijeèima Pavlovijem nasuprot govoreæi i huleæi.

46 Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, "It was necessary that God's word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, look, we turn to the non-Jewish people. (aiōnios g166)

A Pavle i Varnava oslobodivši se rekoše: vama je najprije trebalo da se govori rijeè Božija; ali kad je odbacujete, i sami se pokazujete da nijeste dostojni vjeènoga života, evo se obræemo k neznabošcima. (aiōnios g166)

47 For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, 'I have set you as a light to the nations, that you may bring salvation to the farthest part of the earth.'"

Jer nam tako zapovjedi Gospod: postavih te za vidjelo neznabošcima, da budeš spasenije do samoga kraja zemlje.

48 As the non-Jewish people heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord. As many as were appointed to everlasting life believed. (aiōnios g166)

A kad èuše neznabošci, radovahu se i slavljahu rijeè Božiju, i vjerovaše koliko ih bješe pripravljeno za život vjeèni. (aiōnios g166)

49 The Lord's word was spread abroad throughout all the region.

I rijeè se Božija raznošaše po svoj okolini.

50 But the Jews stirred up the devout women of prominence and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their borders.

Ali Jevreji podgovoriše pobožne i poštene žene i starješine gradske te podigoše gonjenje na Pavla i Varnavu, i istjeraše ih iz svoje zemlje.

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

A oni otresavši na njih prah sa svojijeh nogu doðoše u Ikoniju.

52 The disciples were filled with joy with the Holy Spirit.

A uèenici punjahu se radosti i Duha svetoga.
