John 16
1 [Jesus continued by saying to us], “I have told you these things in order that you will not stop trusting in me [when people] ([cause you to suffer/persecute you]).
Ово вам казах да се не саблазните.
2 They will not allow you to worship in (synagogues/[their] meeting places). In fact, there will be a time when anyone who kills you will think that he is serving God [by doing that].
Изгониће вас из зборница; а доћи ће време кад ће сваки који вас убије мислити да Богу службу чини.
3 They will do such things because they have never known who I [really am], nor who [my] Father [is].
И ово ће чинити, јер не познаше Оца ни мене.
4 I have told you these things in order that when [they start] ([to cause you to suffer]/to [persecute you]) [MTY], you will remember that I warned you. I did not tell you these things when you first started [to accompany me] [MTY] because I was with you, [and they were causing trouble for me, not for you].”
Него вам ово казах кад дође време да се опоменете овог да вам ја казах; а испрва не казах вам ово, јер бејах с вама.
5 “Now I am [about to] return to the one who sent me. But [I am disappointed that] none of you is asking me, ‘Where are you going?’
А сад идем к Ономе који ме посла, и нико ме од вас не пита: Куда идеш?
6 Instead, because I have told you these things, you are very sad.
Него што вам ово казах жалости напуни се срце ваше.
7 But the truth is that it is good for you that I am going away, because if I do not go away, the [Holy Spirit], who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you will not come to you. But when I go, I will send him to you.
Него вам ја истину говорим: боље је за вас да ја идем; јер ако ја не идем, утешитељ неће доћи к вама; ако ли идем, послаћу Га к вама.
8 When he comes, he will prove that those who do not belong to God [MTY] [are wrong about what is] sinful and about who is really righteous and about whom [God will] judge [and condemn for their sin].
И кад Он дође покараће свет за грех, и за правду, и за суд;
9 [He will tell people that their greatest] sin is that they do not believe in me.
За грех, дакле, што не верују мене;
10 [He will tell people that] because I am going [back] to my Father, and you will no longer see me, [you will know that I am the one who was truly] righteous.
А за правду што идем к Оцу свом; и више ме нећете видети;
11 [He will tell people that the fact] that [God] has already determined that [he] will punish [Satan], the one who rules this world, shows that [some day God] will also punish [those who do not belong to him].
А за суд што је кнез овог света осуђен.
12 I have many more things that [I would like] to tell you, but you are not able to accept them now.
Још вам много имам казати; али сад не можете носити.
13 But [God’s] Spirit is the one who will teach you [God’s] truth. When he comes, he will guide you so that you [understand] all [spiritual] truth. He will not speak from his own [authority]. Instead, it is the things that he hears [my Father say] that he will tell you. He will also tell you about things that will happen [later].
А кад дође Он, Дух истине, упутиће вас на сваку истину; јер неће од себе говорити, него ће говорити шта чује, и јавиће вам шта ће бити унапред.
14 He will honor me by revealing my [truth] to you.
Он ће ме прославити, јер ће од мог узети, и јавиће вам:
15 Everything that [my] Father has is mine. That is why I said that the Spirit is able to reveal my truth to you.”
Све што има Отац моје је; зато рекох да ће од мог узети, и јавити вам.
16 “After a short time [I will leave you, and] you will not see me. Then a short time [after that] you will see me [again].”
Још мало, и нећете ме видети, и опет мало, па ћете ме видети: јер идем к Оцу.
17 [So] some of us said to each other, “What does he mean by saying ‘After a short time you will not see me,’ and ‘A short time after that you will see me again’? And [what does he mean by] ‘Because I am going back to [my] Father’?”
А неки од ученика Његових рекоше међу собом: Шта је то што нам каже: Још мало, и нећете ме видети; и опет мало па ћете ме видети; и: Ја идем к оцу?
18 We kept asking each other, “What [does he mean by] saying ‘After a little while’? We do not understand what he is saying.”
Говораху, дакле: Шта је то што говори: Мало? Не знамо шта говори.
19 Jesus realized that we wanted to ask him [about that]. So he said to us, “You are asking [RHQ] each other [what I meant] when I said, ‘After a short time you will not see me, and then a short time [after that] you will see me [again].’
А Исус разуме да хтеше да Га запитају, па им рече: Зато ли се запиткујете међу собом што рекох: Још мало и нећете ме видети, и опет мало па ћете ме видети?
20 Listen to this carefully: [After I] ([leave you/die]), those who oppose God [MTY] will be happy, but you will be sad. But [later] you will stop being sad and you will become joyful.
Заиста, заиста вам кажем да ћете ви заплакати и заридати, а свет ће се радовати; и ви ћете жалосни бити, али ће се ваша жалост окренути на радост.
21 A woman who is about to bear a child feels pain, because that is [what happens] [MTY] [at] that time. But after her baby is born, she forgets that pain, because she is very joyful that her child has been born.
Жена кад рађа трпи муку; јер дође час њен: али кад роди дете, више се не опомиње жалости од радости, јер се роди човек на свет.
22 It will be the same with you. [I will soon die and] you will be sad. But after that, I will see you again. Then you will be joyful, and no one will be able to stop you from being joyful.
Тако и ви, дакле, имате сад жалост; али ћу вас опет видети, и радоваће се срце ваше, и вашу радост неће нико узети од вас;
23 When that happens, you will not ask me any questions [about anything]. Listen to this carefully: [After that happens, my] Father will do for you anything you ask, because of his relationship with me [MTY].
И у онај дан нећете ме питати низашта. Заиста, заиста вам кажем да шта год узиштете у Оца у име моје, даће вам.
24 Up to the present time, using my authority you have not asked [God to do] anything for you [MTY]. Now keep asking [him for things that you need. If you do that], you will receive them, and then you will be completely joyful.
Досле не искасте ништа у име моје; иштите и примићете, да радост ваша буде испуњена.
25 Although I have been speaking these things using figurative language, there will soon be a time when I will no longer use that kind of language. Instead, I will tell you plainly (about my Father/what my Father [wants]).
Ово вам говорих у причама; али ће доћи време кад вам више нећу говорити у причама, него ћу вам управо јавити за Оца.
26 At that time, you will ask [him for things] (because you belong to me/with my authority) [MTY]. I will not [need to] ask [my] Father to do what you ask.
У онај ћете дан у име моје заискати, и не велим вам да ћу ја умолити Оца за вас;
27 [My] Father himself loves you because you have loved me and because you have believed that I came from God [my Father], [so he wants you to ask] him (OR, [so he does not need anyone to persuade] him [to help you])
Јер сам Отац има љубав к вама као што ви имасте љубав к мени, и веровасте да ја од Бога изиђох.
28 I came from [my] Father into this world. Very soon I will be leaving this world and going [back] to my Father.”
Изиђох од Оца, и дођох на свет; и опет остављам свет, и идем к Оцу.
29 Then [we], his disciples, said, “Now you are speaking plainly, without using figurative language.
Рекоше Му ученици Његови: Ето сад управо говориш, а приче никакве не говориш.
30 Now we understand that you know everything. You do not need anyone to ask you questions [about anything, because you know what we want to ask before we ask you]. That [also] leads us to believe that you came from God.”
Сад знамо да све знаш, и не треба Ти да Те ко пита. По томе верујемо да си од Бога изишао.
31 Jesus replied, “Now you [RHQ] say that you believe [that I came from God].
Исус им одговори: Зар сад верујете?
32 But listen! There will soon be a time, and that time is already here, when you will all run away! Each of you will run away to your own home. You will leave me, and I will be alone. But I will not [really] be alone [at that time], because [my] Father is always with me.
Ево иде час, и већ је настао, да се разбегнете сваки на своју страну и мене самог оставите; али нисам сам, јер је Отац са мном.
33 I have told you these things in order that you may have [inner] peace because of your relationship with me. In this world you will have trouble. But be courageous! I have defeated those who are opposed to me [MTY], and [you can defeat them, too]!”
Ово вам казах, да у мени мир имате. У свету ћете имати невољу; али не бојте се, јер ја надвладах свет.
