Acts 12
1 Now about that time Herod the king put forth his hands to afflict certain of the church.
U ono pak vrijeme podiže Irod car ruke da muèi neke od crkve.
2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
I pogubi Jakova brata Jovanova maèem.
3 And when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. And [those] were the days of unleavened bread.
I vidjevši da je to po volji Jevrejima nastavi da uhvati i Petra a bijahu dani prijesnijeh hljebova
4 And when he had taken him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to guard him; intending after the Passover to bring him forth to the people.
Kojega i uhvati i baci u tamnicu, i predade ga èetvorici èetvrtnika vojnièkijeh da ga èuvaju, i mišljaše ga po pashi izvesti pred narod.
5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison: but prayer was made earnestly of the church unto God for him.
I tako Petra èuvahu u tamnici; a crkva moljaše se za njega Bogu bez prestanka.
6 And when Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and guards before the door kept the prison.
A kad šæaše Irod da ga izvede, onu noæ spavaše Petar meðu dvojicom vojnika, okovan u dvoje verige, a stražari pred vratima èuvahu tamnicu.
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shined in the cell: and he smote Peter on the side, and awoke him, saying, Rise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
I gle, anðeo Gospodnji pristupi, i svjetlost obasja po sobi, i kucnuvši Petra u rebra probudi ga govoreæi: ustani brže. I spadoše mu verige s ruku.
8 And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And he did so. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.
A anðeo mu reèe: opaši se, i obuj opanke svoje. I uèini tako. I reèe mu anðeo: obuci haljinu svoju, pa hajde za mnom.
9 And he went out, and followed; and he wist not that it was true which was done by the angel, but thought he saw a vision.
I izišavši iðaše za njim, i ne znadijaše da je to istina što anðeo èinjaše, nego mišljaše da vidi utvaru.
10 And when they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth into the city; which opened to them of its own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and straightway the angel departed from him.
A kad proðoše prvu stražu i drugu i doðoše k vratima gvozdenijem koja voðahu u grad, ona im se sama otvoriše; i izišavši proðoše jednu ulicu, i anðeo odmah otstupi od njega.
11 And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a truth, that the Lord hath sent forth his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
I kad doðe Petar k sebi reèe: sad zaista vidim da Bog posla anðela svojega te me izbavi iz ruku Irodovijeh i od svega èekanja naroda Jevrejskoga.
12 And when he had considered [the thing], he came to the house of Mary the mother of John whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together and were praying.
I razmislivši doðe kuæi Marije matere Jovana koji se zvaše Marko, gdje bijahu mnogi sabrani i moljahu se Bogu.
13 And when he knocked at the door of the gate, a maid came to answer, named Rhoda.
A kad kucnu Petar u vrata od dvora, pristupi djevojka po imenu Roda, da èuje.
14 And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for joy, but ran in, and told that Peter stood before the gate.
I poznavši glas Petrov od radosti ne otvori vrata, nego utrèa i kaza da Petar stoji pred vratima.
15 And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she confidently affirmed that it was even so. And they said, It is his angel.
A oni joj rekoše: jesi li ti luda? A ona potvrðivaše da je tako. A oni govorahu: anðeo je njegov.
16 But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened, they saw him, and were amazed.
A Petar jednako kucaše. A kad otvoriše, vidješe ga, i udiviše se.
17 But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him forth out of the prison. And he said, Tell these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went to another place.
A on mahnuvši na njih rukom da æute, kaza im kako ga Gospod izvede iz tamnice; i reèe: javite ovo Jakovu i braæi. I izišavši otide na drugo mjesto.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
A kad bi dan, bješe ne mala buna meðu vojnicima, šta to bi od Petra.
19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the guards, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and tarried there.
A kad ga Irod zaiska i ne naðe, onda ispita stražare, i zapovjedi da ih odvedu; i izišavši iz Judeje u Æesariju onamo življaše.
20 Now he was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: and they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, they asked for peace, because their country was fed from the king’s country.
Jer se Irod srðaše na Tirce i Sidonce. Ali oni jednodušno doðoše k njemu, i uzevši na svoju ruku Vlasta, posteljnika careva, iskahu mira, jer se njihove zemlje hranjahu od njegova carstva.
21 And upon a set day Herod arrayed himself in royal apparel, and sat on the throne, and made an oration unto them.
A u odreðeni dan obuèe se Irod u carsku haljinu, i sjedavši na prijesto govoraše im;
22 And the people shouted, [saying], The voice of a god, and not of a man.
A narod vikaše: ovo je glas Božij, a ne èovjeèij.
23 And immediately an angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
Ali ujedanput udari ga anðeo Gospodnji; jer ne dade slave Bogu; i buduæi izjeden od crvi izdahnu.
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
A rijeè Božija rastijaše i množaše se.
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministration, taking with them John whose surname was Mark.
A Varnava i Savle predavši pomoæ vratiše se iz Jerusalima u Antiohiju, uzevši sa sobom i Jovana koji se zvaše Marko.
