Matthew 23
1 Then, Jesus spake unto the multitudes and unto his disciples,
Tada Isus reèe k narodu i uèenicima svojima
2 saying—Upon Moses’ seat, have sat down, the Scribes and the Pharisees:
Govoreæi: na Mojsijevu stolicu sjedoše književnici i fariseji.
3 All things, therefore, whatsoever they tell you, do and observe, —but, according to their works, do ye not, for they, say, and do not, perform.
Sve dakle što vam reku da držite, držite i tvorite; ali što oni èine ne èinite; jer govore a ne èine.
4 But they bind together heavy burdens, and lay upon men’s shoulders, whereas, they, with their finger, are not willing to move them.
Nego vežu bremena teška i nezgodna za nošenje, i tovare na pleæa ljudska; a prstom svojijem neæe da ih prihvate.
5 But, all their works, they do, to be gazed at, by men, —for they make broad their amulets, and make large their fringes,
A sva djela svoja èine da ih vide ljudi: raširuju svoje amajlije, i grade velike skute na haljinama svojima.
6 And dearly love the first couch in the chief meals, and the first seats in the synagogues,
I traže zaèelje na gozbama i prva mjesta po zbornicama,
7 And the salutations in the market-places, and to be called by men, Rabbi.
I da im se klanja po ulicama, i da ih ljudi zovu: ravi! ravi!
8 But, ye, —do not be called Rabbi, —for, one, is your Teacher, and, all ye, are brethren;
A vi se ne zovite ravi; jer je u vas jedan ravi Hristos, a vi ste svi braæa.
9 And, father, be none of you called, upon the earth, for, one, is your Father, the Heavenly;
I ocem ne zovite nikoga na zemlji; jer je u vas jedan otac koji je na nebesima.
10 Neither be called leaders, for, your leader, is one, the Christ;
Niti se zovite uèitelji; jer je u vas jedan uèitelj Hristos.
11 And, the greatest of you, shall be to you, a minister;
A najveæi izmeðu vas da vam bude sluga.
12 And, whoever shall exalt himself, shall be, abased, and, whoever shall abase himself, shall be, exalted,
Jer koji se podiže, poniziæe se, a koji se ponižuje, podignuæe se.
13 But alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye are locking up the kingdom of the heavens before men, —for, ye, are not entering, neither, them who are entering, suffer ye to enter.
Teško vama književnici i fariseji, licemjeri, što zatvorate carstvo nebesko od ljudi; jer vi ne ulazite niti date da ulaze koji bi htjeli.
Teško vama književnici i fariseji, licemjeri, što jedete kuæe udovièke, i lažno se Bogu molite dugo; zato æete veæma biti osuðeni.
15 Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: because ye compass sea and dry land, to make one convert—and, when it is done, ye make him a son of gehenna, twofold more than ye. (Geenna g1067)
Teško vama književnici i fariseji, licemjeri, što prehodite more i zemlju da bi prisvojili jednoga, i kad ga prisvojite, èinite ga sinom paklenijem udvoje veæijem od sebe. (Geenna g1067)
16 Alas for you, blind guides! that say—Whosoever shall swear by the Temple, it is, nothing, but, whosoever shall swear by the gold of the Temple, is bound:
Teško vama voði slijepi koji govorite: ako se ko kune crkvom ništa je; a ko se kune zlatom crkvenijem kriv je.
17 Foolish and blind! for which is, greater, The gold, or the Temple that hath hallowed the gold?
Budale slijepe! šta je veæe, ili zlato, ili crkva koja zlato osveti?
18 And, whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is, nothing, but, whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, is bound:
I ako se ko kune oltarom ništa je to, a koji se kune darom koji je na njemu kriv je.
19 Blind! for which is greater, The gift, or the altar that halloweth the gift?
Budale slijepe! šta je veæe, ili dar, ili oltar koji dar osveti?
20 He therefore that hath sworn by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all that is upon it;
Koji se dakle kune oltarom, kune se njim i svijem što je na njemu.
21 And, he that hath sworn by the Temple, sweareth by it, and by him who dwelleth therein;
I koji se kune crkvom, kune se njom i onijem koji živi u njoj.
22 And, he that hath sworn by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him who sitteth thereupon.
I koji se kune nebom, kune se prijestolom Božijem i onijem koji sjedi na njemu.
23 Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye tithe the mint and the anise and the cummin, —and have dismissed the weightier matters of the law—the justice, the mercy, and the faith; whereas, these, it was binding, to do, and, those, not to, dismiss.
Teško vama književnici i fariseji, licemjeri, što dajete desetak od metvice i od kopra i od kima, a ostaviste što je najpretežnije u zakonu: pravdu i milost i vjeru; a ovo je trebalo èiniti i ono ne ostavljati.
24 Blind guides! Straining out the gnat, but, the camel, swallowing.
Voði slijepi koji ocjeðujete komarca a kamilu proždirete.
25 Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, —while, within, they are full of plunder and intemperance.
Teško vama književnici i fariseji, licemjeri, što èistite spolja èašu i zdjelu a iznutra su pune grabeža i nepravde.
26 Blind Pharisee! cleanse, first, the inside, of the cup [and of the dish], that, the outside thereof, may become, clean.
Fariseju slijepi! Oèisti najprije iznutra èašu i zdjelu da budu i spolja èiste.
27 Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye make yourselves like sepulchres whitewashed, which, outside, indeed, appear, beautiful, but, within, are full, of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness, —
Teško vama književnici i fariseji, licemjeri, što ste kao okreèeni grobovi, koji se spolja vide lijepi a unutra su puni kostiju mrtvaèkijeh i svake neèistote.
28 Thus, ye also, outside, indeed, appear to men, righteous, but, within, are full, of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
Tako i vi spolja se pokazujete ljudima pravedni, a iznutra ste puni licemjerja i bezakonja.
29 Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the monuments of the righteous,
Teško vama književnici i fariseji, licemjeri, što zidate grobove prorocima i krasite rake pravednika,
30 and say—If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been their partners in the blood of the prophets:
I govorite: da smo mi bili u vrijeme svojijeh otaca, ne bismo s njima pristali u krv proroka.
31 So that ye bear witness against yourselves, that ye are, sons, of them who murdered the prophets.
Tijem samo svjedoèite za sebe da ste sinovi onijeh koji su pobili proroke.
32 And, ye, fill ye up the measure of your fathers!
I vi dopunite mjeru otaca svojijeh.
Zmije, porodi aspidini! kako æete pobjeæi od presude u oganj pakleni? (Geenna g1067)
34 For this cause, lo! I, send unto you, prophets and wise men and scribes, —some from among them, ye will slay and crucify, And some from among them ye will—scourge in your synagogues, and pursue from city to city:
Zato evo ja æu k vama poslati proroke i premudre i književnike; i vi æete jedne pobiti i raspeti, a jedne biti po zbornicama svojima i goniti od grada do grada,
35 That there may come upon you—all righteous blood poured out upon the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous, unto the blood of Zachariah, son of Barachiah, whom ye murdered between the Temple and the altar.
Da doðe na vas sva krv pravedna što je prolivena na zemlji od krvi Avelja pravednoga do krvi Zarije sina Varahijna, kojega ubiste meðu crkvom i oltarom.
36 Verily, I say unto you—All these things, will have come, upon this generation.
Zaista vam kažem da æe ovo sve doæi na rod ovaj.
37 Jerusalem! Jerusalem! that slayeth the prophets, and stoneth them that have been sent unto her, —how often, would I have gathered thy children, like as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, —and ye would not!
Jerusalime, Jerusalime, koji ubijaš proroke i zasipaš kamenjem poslane k sebi! koliko puta htjeh da skupim èeda tvoja, kao što kokoš skuplja piliæe svoje pod krila, i ne htjeste!
38 Lo! your house is left to you;
Eto æe vam se ostaviti vaša kuæa pusta.
39 For I say unto you—in no wise, may ye see me, henceforth, until ye say, Blessed, is he that cometh, in the name of the Lord!
Jer vam kažem: neæete mene vidjeti otsele dok ne reèete: blagosloven koji ide u ime Gospodnje.
