John 10
1 [Jesus continued by saying to us], “Listen carefully to what I say. Anyone who does not enter [the sheep pen] through the gate, if he climbs in some other way, he is a thief or a bandit.
Заиста, заиста вам кажем: ко не улази на врата у тор овчији него прелази на другом месту он је лупеж и хајдук;
2 The man who enters [the pen] through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.
А који улази на врата јесте пастир овцама.
3 The man who watches the gate at [night] opens the gate for him. The sheep recognize the shepherd’s voice. He summons his own sheep by [calling out] the names [he has given] them. Then he leads them outside [the pen].
Њему вратар отвара, и овце глас његов слушају, и своје овце зове по имену, и изгони их;
4 After he has brought out all his own [sheep], he goes in front of them. His sheep follow him because they recognize [and pay attention to] his voice.
И кад своје овце истера, иде пред њима, и овце иду за њим, јер познају глас његов.
5 But they will never follow a stranger. Instead, they will run away from him, because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.”
А за туђином неће да иду, него беже од њега, јер не познају глас туђи.
6 Jesus said that [MET] [to illustrate the difference between himself and the Pharisees, who were deceiving the people]. But they did not understand what he was telling them.
Ову причу каза им Исус, али они не разумеше шта то беше што им каза.
7 So Jesus spoke to them again. He said, “Listen carefully to what I am saying. I am [like] [MET] a gate for the sheep [to enter the sheepfold, because I am the one who allows people to enter God’s presence].
Тада им рече Исус опет: Заиста, заиста вам кажем: ја сам врата к овцама.
8 All of [your religious leaders] who have come previously [without my authority] are [like] [MET] thieves and bandits [because they act violently and dishonestly for their own benefit]. But [just like] sheep do not [obey strangers, God’s people do not] pay attention to them.
Сви колико их год дође пре мене лупежи су и хајдуци; али их овце не послушаше.
9 I am [like] a gate. Those will be saved {[God] will save all those} who come [to God] by [trusting in] me. [Just like sheep] go in and out [through the gate safely] to find pasture [MET], [I will provide for them and protect them].
Ја сам врата; ко уђе кроза ме спашће се, и ући ће и изићи ће, и пашу ће наћи.
10 Thieves come [to a sheep pen] only to steal or kill or destroy [sheep] [MET]. [Similarly, your religious leaders injure God’s people spiritually]. But I have come in order that people may have [eternal/spiritual] life, and that they may have abundantly [all they need to sustain them spiritually].
Лупеж не долази низашта друго него да украде и убије и погуби; ја дођох да имају живот и изобиље.
11 I am [like] a good shepherd. A good shepherd [is willing to] die to save the sheep [MET]. [Similarly, I am ready to sacrifice myself to save those who belong to me].
Ја сам пастир добри; пастир добри душу своју полаже за овце.
12 A worker whom someone has hired [to look after the sheep] is not [like] the shepherd or the one who owns the sheep. So when he sees a wolf coming, he leaves the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock of sheep and [seizes one sheep and] causes [the others] to scatter.
А најамник, који није пастир, коме нису овце своје, види вука где иде, и оставља овце, и бежи: и вук зграби овце и распуди их;
13 The worker runs away because he is [only] a man whom someone has hired. He is not [really] concerned about [what happens to] the sheep [MET]. [Similarly, your religious teachers do not really care what happens to you].
А најамник бежи, јер је најамник и не мари за овце.
14 I am [like] a good shepherd. [Just like a good shepherd knows his] sheep [MET], I know those who belong to me, and they know me
Ја сам пастир добри и знам своје, и моје мене знају.
15 in the same way as [my] Father knows me and I know [my] Father. Furthermore, I am [ready to] sacrifice myself for [those who belong to me].
Као што мене зна Отац и ја знам Оца; и душу своју полажем за овце.
16 And I have other people [who are not Jews] who [will some day] belong to me. They will be [like] [MET] sheep from another sheep pen. I must bring them [to God/myself] also. They will pay attention to what I say, and eventually [all those who belong to me] will be [like] one flock, and [I] will be [like] [MET] their one shepherd.
И друге овце имам које нису из овог тора, и оне ми ваља довести; и чуће глас мој, и биће једно стадо и један пастир.
17 The reason [my] Father loves me is that I will sacrifice my life. But [after I do that], I will become alive again.
Зато ме Отац љуби, јер ја душу своју полажем да је опет узмем.
18 No one is causing me to die. Instead, I [have chosen to] sacrifice myself. I have authority to sacrifice myself and I have authority to become alive again. That is what my Father has commanded me to do.”
Нико је не отима од мене, него је ја сам од себе полажем. Власт имам положити је и власт имам узети је опет. Ову сам заповест примио од Оца свог.
19 After hearing these words [that Jesus said], the Jews were divided again.
Тада опет поста распра међу Јеврејима за ове речи.
20 Many of them said, “A demon is [controlling] him and has caused him to become crazy. (It is useless to listen to him!/Why should we listen to him?) [RHQ]”
Многи од њих говораху: У њему је ђаво, и полудео је; шта га слушате?
21 But others said, “What he is saying is not something a man whom a demon is controlling would say. (No demon could enable a blind man to see [like he did!/] How could a demon enable a blind man to see [like he did]?) [RHQ]”
Други говораху: Ове речи нису лудога; зар може ђаво слепима очи отварати?
22 Then it was time for the celebration [to remember when our ancestors] rededicated [the Temple in Jerusalem]. It was in winter.
А беше тада празник обновљења у Јерусалиму, и беше зима.
23 Jesus was in the Temple [courtyard], walking in [the place that people called King] Solomon’s porch.
И ходаше Исус у цркви по трему Соломуновом.
24 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] gathered around him and said, “How long will you keep us from knowing for sure [if you are the Messiah]? If you are the Messiah, tell us clearly!”
А Јевреји Га опколише, и говораху Му: Докле ћеш мучити душе наше? Ако си ти Христос, кажи нам слободно.
25 Jesus answered them, “I have told you [that I am the Messiah], but you do not believe me! You should know who I am because of the miracles I do with my Father’s authority [MTY].
Исус им одговори: Ја вам казах, па не верујете. Дела која творим ја у име Оца свог она сведоче за ме.
26 But instead, you do not believe in me because you do not belong to [me. You are like] [MET] sheep [who belong to a different shepherd].
Али ви не верујете; јер нисте од мојих оваца, као што вам казах.
27 [Just like sheep] heed the voice [of their true shepherd] [MET], my [people pay attention to what I say]. I know them, and they have become my disciples.
Овце моје слушају глас мој, и ја познајем њих, и за мном иду.
29 [Those] that my Father has given to me are more precious than anything else (OR, My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than anything that opposes them). So no one can pull them away from belonging to him [MTY].
Отац мој који ми их даде већи је од свих; и нико их не може отети из руке Оца мог.
30 [My] father and I are equal.”
Ја и Отац једно смо.
31 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] again picked up stones to throw at Jesus [and kill him because they were angry at his saying that he was equal with God].
А Јевреји опет узеше камење да Га убију.
32 But Jesus said to them, “You have seen me perform many miracles that my Father [told me to do. You should realize from seeing them that I am equal with God]. So, because of which of these miracles [IRO] are you wanting to [kill me by] throwing stones at me?”
Исус им одговори: Многа вам добра дела јавих од Оца свог; за које од оних дела бацате камење на ме?
33 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied, “We are [wanting to] throw stones at you not because you performed a great miracle. Instead, [we are wanting to do it] because you are dishonoring God. You are just a man, but you are saying that you are God!”
Одговорише Му Јевреји говорећи: За добро дело не бацамо камење на те, него за хулу на Бога, што ти, човек будући, градиш се Бог.
34 Jesus replied to them, “In the Scriptures it is written {([someone/the Psalmist]) has written} [RHQ] [what God said to the rulers whom he had appointed], ‘I have said that you are [like] gods.’
Исус им одговори: Не стоји ли написано у закону вашем: Ја рекох: богови сте?
35 God said that [to those leaders when he appointed them. No one objected to that]. And nothing that is in Scripture can be set aside {no one can set aside anything that is in Scripture}.
Ако оне назва боговима којима реч Божија би, и писмо се не може покварити;
36 But I am the one [my] Father set apart to completely belong to him. He sent me here into this world. So (why are you angry with me for saying that [I am equal with God when I say] that I am the man who is also God?/you should not be angry with me for saying that [I am equal with God when I say] that I am the person who is both God and man!) [RHQ]
Како ви говорите Ономе ког Отац посвети и посла на свет: Хулу на Бога говориш, што рекох: Ја сам Син Божји?
37 If I were not doing the miracles that my Father [told me to do, I would not expect] you to believe in me.
Ако не творим дела Оца свог не верујте ми.
38 But because I perform these miracles, believe [what] these miracles [show about me], even though you do not believe what I [say]. If you do that, then you will know and understand that [my] Father has a close relationship with me, and I have a close relationship with [my] Father.”
Ако ли творим, ако мени и не верујете, делима мојим верујте, да познате и верујете да је Отац у мени и ја у Њему.
39 After they heard that, they tried to seize him again, but he got away from them.
Тада опет гледаху да Га ухвате; али им се измаче из руку.
40 Then Jesus went, along [with us], back across [to the east side of] the Jordan [River]. We went to the place where John was previously baptizing [people]. He/We stayed there [for a few weeks].
И отиде опет преко Јордана на оно место где Јован пре крштаваше; и оста онде.
41 Many people came to Jesus. They were saying, “John never performed a miracle, [but this man has performed many miracles]! Everything that John said about this man is true!”
И многи дођоше к Њему и говораху: Јован не учини ни једног чуда, али све што каза Јован за Овог истина беше.
42 Many people [who came] there believed ([that Jesus was the Messiah/that Jesus truly had come from God]).
И многи вероваше Га онде.
