Acts 28
1 When we had escaped, then we learned that the island was called Malta.
I kad iziðoše sreæno iz laðe, tada razumješe da se ostrvo zove Melit.
2 The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire, and received us all, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
A divljaci èinjahu nam ne malu ljubav, jer naložiše oganj i primiše nas sve zbog dažda koji iðaše, i zbog zime.
3 But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and placed them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
A Pavle zgrabivši gomilu granja naloži na oganj, i izišavši zmija od vruæine skoèi mu na ruku.
4 When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said one to another, "No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live."
I kad vidješe divljaci zmiju gdje visi o ruci njegovoj, govorahu jedan drugome: jamaèno je ovaj èovjek krvnik, kojega izbavljena od mora sud Božij ne ostavi da živi.
5 However he shook off the creature into the fire, and was not harmed.
A on otresavši zmiju u oganj ne bi mu ništa zlo.
6 But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
A oni èekahu da on oteèe ili ujedanput da padne mrtav. A kad zadugo èekaše, i vidješe da mu ništa zlo ne bi, promijeniše se, i govorahu da je on Bog.
7 Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief official of the island, named Publius, who received us, and courteously entertained us for three days.
A naokolo oko onoga mjesta bijahu sela poglavara od ostrva po imenu Poplija, koji nas primi i ugosti ljubazno tri dana.
8 It happened that the father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
A dogodi se da otac Poplijev ležaše od groznice i od srdobolje, kojemu ušavši Pavle pomoli se Bogu i metnu ruke svoje na nj i iscijeli ga.
9 Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came, and were cured.
A kad to bi, dolažahu i drugi koji bijahu bolesni na ostrvu onome, i iscjeljivahu se.
10 They also honored us with many honors, and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.
I poštovahu nas velikijem èastima; i kad poðosmo, spremiše nam što je od potrebe.
11 After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose sign was "The Twin Brothers."
A poslije tri mjeseca odvezosmo se na laði Aleksandrijskoj, koja je bila prezimila na ostrvu, i bijahu na njoj napisani Dioskuri.
12 Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
I doplovivši u Sirakuzu ostasmo ondje tri dana.
13 From there we cast off and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
A odande otplovivši doðosmo u Rigiju; i poslije jednoga dana kad dunu jug, doðosmo drugi dan u Potiole.
14 where we found brothers, and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.
Ondje naðemo braæu, i oni nas zamole te ostanemo kod njih sedam dana; i tako poðosmo u Rim.
15 From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God, and took courage.
I odande èuvši braæa za nas iziðoše nam na susret tja do Apijeva pazara i tri krème. I kad ih vidje Pavle, dade hvalu Bogu, i oslobodi se.
16 When we entered into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.
A kad doðosmo u Rim, kapetan predade sužnje vojvodi. Ali se Pavlu dopusti da živi gdje hoæe s vojnikom koji ga èuvaše.
17 It happened that after three days he called together those who were the Jewish leaders. When they had come together, he said to them, "I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
A poslije tri dana Pavle sazva starješine Jevrejske. I kad se oni skupiše, govoraše im: ljudi braæo! ja ništa ne uèinih protivno narodu ili obièajima otaèkijem; i Jerusalimljani predaše me kao sužnja u ruke Rimljanima,
18 who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.
Koji izvidjevši za mene šæahu da me puste, jer se ne naðe na meni nijedna smrtna krivica.
19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was forced to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
Ali kad Judejci govorahu nasuprot, natjera me nevolja da se ištem pred æesara, ne kao da bih svoj narod imao što tužiti.
20 For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."
Toga radi uzroka zamolih vas da se vidimo i da se razgovorimo; jer nada radi Izrailjeva okovan sam u ovo gvožðe.
21 They said to him, "We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.
A oni mu rekoše: mi niti primismo pisma za te iz Judeje; niti doðe ko od braæe da javi ili da govori što zlo za tebe.
22 But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against."
Nego molimo da èujemo od tebe šta misliš; jer nam je poznato za ovu jeres da joj se svuda nasuprot govori.
23 When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about the Kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets, from morning until evening.
I odredivši mu dan doðoše k njemu u gostionicu mnogi; kojima kazivaše svjedoèeæi carstvo Božije i uvjeravajuæi ih za Isusa iz zakona Mojsijeva i iz proroka od jutra do samoga mraka.
24 Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.
I jedni vjerovahu onome što govoraše a jedni ne vjerovahu.
25 When they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one word, "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah, the prophet, to your fathers,
A buduæi nesložni meðu sobom, odlažahu kad reèe Pavle jednu rijeè: dobro kaza Duh sveti preko proroka Isaije ocevima našijem
26 saying, 'Go to this people, and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.
Govoreæi: idi k narodu ovome i kaži: ušima æete èuti i neæete razumjeti; i oèima æete gledati i neæete vidjeti.
27 For this people's heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.'
Jer odrveni srce ovoga naroda, i ušima teško èuju, i oèima svojijem zažmuriše da kako ne vide oèima, i ušima ne èuju, i srcem ne razumiju, i da se ne obrate da ih iscijelim.
28 "Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the nations. They will also listen."
Da vam je dakle na znanje da se neznabošcima posla spasenije Božije, oni æe i èuti.
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.
I kad on ovo reèe, otidoše Jevreji prepiruæi se meðu sobom.
30 And Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who were coming to him,
A Pavle ostade pune dvije godine o svome trošku, i doèekivaše sve koji mu dolažahu,
31 proclaiming the Kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus (the) Messiah with all boldness, without hindrance.
Propovijedajuæi carstvo Božije, i uèeæi o Gospodu našemu Isusu Hristu slobodno, i niko mu ne branjaše.
