Matthew 12
1 During that period of time, on a (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), Jesus [and we] disciples were walking through some grain fields. And because we were hungry, we began to pick some of the heads of grain and eat them. [The laws of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
У то време иђаше Исус у суботу кроз усеве: а ученици Његови огладнеше, и почеше тргати класје, и јести.
2 Some Pharisees saw us [do what they considered to be work]. So they said to Jesus, [accusing him], “Look! Your disciples are doing [work] that is not permitted [in our] laws [PRS] [for us] to do on our day of rest!”
А фарисеји видевши то рекоше Му: Гле, ученици твоји чине шта не ваља чинити у суботу.
3 [Jesus wanted to show them that the record in the Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. [So] he said to them, “[It is written] {[Someone wrote]} [in the Scriptures] [RHQ] what [our revered ancestor King] David did when he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, ([but you do not think about what it implies!/so why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
А Он рече им: Нисте ли читали шта учини Давид кад огладне, он и који беху с њим?
4 David entered the big tent [where they worshipped] God [and asked for some food. The high priest gave him] the bread that had been {they had} presented [to God]. According to the laws [of Moses], only priests were permitted to eat that bread, but David and the men who were with him ate it. And [God did not consider that what they did was wrong]
Како уђе у кућу Божју, и хлебове постављене поједе, којих није ваљало јести њему ни онима што су били с њим, него самим свештеницима.
5 Also, think about the laws that [Moses wrote] [RHQ]. He said that [even though] the priests, [by working] in the Temple on our Jewish day of rest, are not obeying the Jewish day of rest [laws], they are not guilty. You have surely read that, [but you do not understand what it means].
Или нисте читали у закону како у суботу свештеници у цркви суботу погане, па нису криви?
6 Note this: [God allows men to work in] the Temple [on our rest day because that work must be done. But in addition, I] tell you that [I have] more [authority than the authority of] the Temple. So, it is more important for you to obey my teachings than to obey your traditions about our rest day.
А ја вам кажем да је овде онај који је већи од цркве.
7 [You should think about] these words [of God in the Scriptures]: ‘I want you to [act] mercifully toward people, and not [just] offer sacrifices.’ If you understood what that means, you would not condemn [my disciples], who have done no wrong.
Кад бисте пак знали шта је то: Милости хоћу а не прилога, никад не бисте осуђивали праве;
8 [And I want you to know that] I, the one who came from heaven, have [the] authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do on] the days of rest.”
Јер је Господар и од суботе Син човечији.
9 After Jesus left there [that day], he went into a building where we Jews worship God.
И отишавши оданде дође у зборницу њихову.
10 [He saw] a man with a shriveled hand there. [The Pharisees thought that Jesus would be disobeying the tradition about not working on the day of rest if he healed the man, so one of] them asked him, “Does [God] permit [us] to heal [people] on our day of rest?” [They asked that question] so that they might accuse him [if he healed someone] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day).
И гле, човек беше ту с руком сувом; и запиташе Га говорећи: Ваља ли у суботу лечити? Да би Га окривили.
11 He replied to them, “Would anyone among you who has [only] one sheep that falls into a hole (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) [just leave it there] [RHQ]? [Certainly not]! You would take hold of it and lift it out right away, [and that would be acceptable work on our day of rest, too]
А Он рече им: Који је међу вама човек који има овцу једну па ако она у суботу упадне у јаму неће је узети и извадити?
12 [Because] sheep are valuable, [their owners may work on our day of rest in order to rescue them. So, because] people are more valuable than sheep, it is certainly right for us to do something good [by healing another person any day, including] our day of rest!”
А колико је човек претежнији од овце? Дакле ваља у суботу добро чинити.
13 Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your [withered] hand!” The man stretched it out, and it became normal like the other hand!
Тада рече човеку: Пружи руку своју. И пружи. И постаде здрава као и друга.
14 Then the Pharisees left [the meeting house. They were worried that the people would reject their traditions and would accept Jesus’ teaching instead. So] they met together to plan how they could kill him.
А фарисеји изишавши начинише веће о Њему како би Га погубили. Но Исус дознавши то уклони се оданде.
15 Because Jesus knew [that the Pharisees were plotting to kill him], he [took us disciples and] went away from there. Crowds, [including many sick people], followed him, [wanting him to heal them], and he healed them all.
И за Њим идоше људи многи, и исцели их све.
16 But he told them firmly that they should not tell [other people yet] who he was.
И запрети им да Га не разглашују:
17 [By acting humbly like that] he fulfilled what was written by Isaiah the prophet {what Isaiah the prophet wrote} [long ago about the Messiah]. [Isaiah wrote] that God said:
Да се збуде шта је казао Исаија пророк говорећи:
18 Take note of my servant whom I have chosen, the one whom I love and with whom I am pleased. I will put my Spirit in him, and he will proclaim that [God] will judge the non-Jews justly.
Гле, слуга мој, кога сам изабрао, љубазни мој, који је по вољи душе моје: метнућу дух свој на Њега, и суд незнабошцима јавиће.
19 He will not quarrel [with people], neither will he shout. He will not [teach with] a loud voice in the [main] streets.
Неће се свађати ни викати, нити ће чути ко по распутицама глас Његов.
20 Until he has justly judged [the people who trust in him and] has declared them not guilty, he will not destroy [anyone who is weak like] a smashed stalk [MET], nor will he silence [anyone who is as helpless as] a smoldering [linen] wick [MET, DOU].
Трску стучену неће преломити и свештило запаљено неће угасити док правда не одржи победу.
21 As a result, the non-Jews will confidently expect [that he will do great things for them].
И у име Његово уздаће се народи.
22 One day when Jesus was at home, [some men] brought to [Jesus] a man [who, because of being] controlled by a demon {a demon controlled him}, was blind and unable to speak. [Jesus] healed him [by expelling the demon]. As a result, the man [began to] talk and [was able to] see.
Тада доведоше к Њему беснога који беше нем и слеп; и исцели га да неми и слепи стаде говорити и гледати.
23 All the crowd [who saw it] marveled. They began asking [each other], “Could this man be the [Messiah, the] descendant of [King] David, [whom we have been expecting]?”
И дивљаху се сви људи говорећи: Није ли ово Христос, син Давидов?
24 Because the Pharisees [and the men who taught the Jewish laws] heard [that the people thought that Jesus might be the Messiah because he had expelled the demon], they said, “[It is not God, but] Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons, who enables [this man] to expel demons [from people!]”
А фарисеји чувши то рекоше: Овај другачије не изгони ђавола до помоћу Веелзевула кнеза ђаволског.
25 But Jesus knew what [the Pharisees] were thinking [and saying]. So, [in order to show them that what they said did not make sense], he said to them, “If [the people in] [MTY] one nation fight against each other, [they] will destroy their nation {their nation will be destroyed}. If [people who live in] the same city or house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one group or family].
А Исус знајући мисли њихове рече им: Свако царство које се раздели само по себи, опустеће; и сваки град или дом који се раздели сам по себи, пропашће.
26 [Similarly], if Satan were expelling his own [demons] [MTY], [it would be as though] he was fighting against himself. (His kingdom would not continue!/How could his kingdom continue?) [RHQ] His rule over them would [certainly] not last!
И ако сотона сотону изгони, сам по себи разделио се; како ће дакле остати царство његово?
27 Furthermore, if [it is true that] Satan enables me to expel demons, is it also true that your disciples [who] expel demons [do so] by [Satan’s] power [RHQ]? [No] So they will show you that you [are not thinking logically].
И ако ја помоћу Веелзевула изгоним ђаволе, синови ваши чијом помоћу изгоне? Зато ће вам они бити судије.
28 But because it is God’s Spirit who [enables] me to expel demons, [that proves that the power of] God to rule [people’s lives] has come to you.
А ако ли ја Духом Божијим изгоним ђаволе, дакле је дошло к вама царство небеско.
29 [I will illustrate why I am able to expel demons]. (A person cannot go into the house of a strong man) [RHQ] [But if he ties up the strong man], then he will be able to steal [the things in that man’s] house.
Или како може ко ући у кућу јакога и покућство његово отети, ако најпре не свеже јакога? И онда ће кућу његову опленити.
30 [No one can be neutral]. Those who do not acknowledge [that the Holy Spirit enables] me [to expel demons] are opposing me, and those who do not gather [people to become] my [disciples] are causing [those people] to [DOU] go away [from me].
Који није са мном, против мене је; и који не сабира са мном, просипа.
31 You [are saying that it is not the Holy Spirit who is enabling me to expel demons]. So I will say this to you: [If] those who offend and slander other people in any way are [then sorry and ask God to forgive them, God] will forgive them. But people who discredit what the Holy Spirit does will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive [people] who discredit what the Holy Spirit does}.
Зато вам кажем: сваки грех и хула опростиће се људима; а на Духа Светог хула неће се опростити људима.
32 [God is willing to] forgive people who criticize [me], the One who came from heaven. But I [warn you that] those who say evil things about what the Holy Spirit [does] will not be forgiven {[God] will not forgive people who speak evil words about what the Holy Spirit [does]}. They will not be forgiven {[He] will not forgive them} now, and they will never be forgiven {[he] will never forgive them}.” (aiōn g165)
И ако ко рече реч на Сина човечијег, опростиће му се; а који рече реч на Духа Светог, неће му се опростити ни на овом свету ни на оном. (aiōn g165)
33 “Think about this: You can know whether [a person is good and what that person says is good, in the same way that you] can know whether a tree [MET] and the fruit it produces [MET] are good. [You can also know whether a person and what that person says is evil in the same way that you can know] whether a tree [MET] and its fruit [MET] are blighted. You can know whether a tree is good by [seeing] its fruit, and similarly [people can know the evil character of you Pharisees by listening to your accusations against me].
Или усадите дрво добро, и род његов биће добар; или усадите дрво зло, и род његов зао биће; јер се по роду дрво познаје.
34 [What] you [teach harms people spiritually like poisonous] snakes [harm them physically] [MET]! You are not able to speak good things because you are evil [RHQ]. Evil people [SYN] [like you] speak what comes from all that is in their (inner beings/hearts).
Породи аспидини! Како можете добро говорити, кад сте зли? Јер уста говоре од сувишка срца.
35 Good people [speak good things. That is like] taking good things out of buildings where they are stored. But evil people [speak evil things. That is like] taking evil things out of buildings where they are stored.
Добар човек из добре клети износи добро; а зао човек из зле клети износи зло.
36 I tell you that on the day when God judges [MTY], he will make people recall every useless word they have spoken, [and he will judge them accordingly].
А ја вам кажем да ће за сваку празну реч коју кажу људи дати одговор у дан страшног суда.
37 Based on the words that you have spoken, [God] will [either] declare that you are righteous based on the words that you have spoken, or [else] he will condemn you.”
Јер ћеш се својим речима оправдати, и својим ћеш се речима осудити.
38 Then some of the Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws responded [to what Jesus was teaching] by saying to him, “Teacher, we want to see you [perform] a miracle [that would prove to us that God sent you].”
Тада одговорише неки од књижевника и фарисеја говорећи: Учитељу! Ми би ради од тебе знак видети.
39 Then Jesus said to them, “[You] people [have already seen me perform miracles], but you are evil, and you do not faithfully worship God [MET]! You want [me to perform] a miracle [that would prove to you that God sent me], but [God will enable] you to see only one miracle. It will be [like] what happened to Jonah the prophet [MET].
А Он одговарајући рече им: Род зли и прељуботворни тражи знак; и неће му се дати знак осим знака Јоне пророка.
40 Jonah was in the stomach of a huge fish for three days and nights [before God caused him to live again]. Similarly, for three days and nights I, the one who came from heaven, will be in a place [where dead people are, and then God will cause me to live again].
Јер као што је Јона био у трбуху китовом три дана и три ноћи: тако ће бити и Син човечији у срцу земље три дана и три ноћи.
41 When [God] judges [all people], the people who lived in Nineveh will stand [in front of him] with [you] people who [have seen me perform miracles]. The [people of Nineveh turned from their sinful ways as a result of hearing what] Jonah preached. [Jonah was important, but I], who am more important than Jonah, [have come and preached to you, but you have not turned from your sinful ways. So] when [God] judges [all people, he] will condemn you.
Ниневљани изићи ће на суд с родом овим, и осудиће га; јер се покајаше Јониним поучењем: а гле, овде је већи од Јоне.
42 The queen from [Sheba, South of Israel, who lived long ago, came from a distant region in order to listen to King Solomon teach] many wise things. But now [I], [a man] who [is much] greater [and wiser] than Solomon, am here, [but you have not listened to what I have told you]. So at the time when [God] judges [all people], the queen from [Sheba will stand in front of him, along] with you people, and will condemn you.”
Царица јужна изићи ће на суд с родом овим, и осудиће га; јер она дође с краја земље да слуша премудрост Соломунову: а гле, овде је већи од Соломуна.
43 “[Sometimes] when an evil spirit leaves a person, it wanders around in desolate areas, seeking [someone in whom it can] rest. If it does not find anyone,
А кад нечисти дух изиђе из човека, иде кроз безводна места тражећи покоја, и не нађе га.
44 it says [to itself], ‘I will return to the person [MET] in whom I used to live.’ So it goes back [and finds that the Spirit of God is not in control of that] person’s [life. The person’s life is like] a house that has been swept clean and everything put in order [MET], [but it is] empty.
Онда рече: Да се вратим у дом свој откуда сам изишао; и дошавши нађе празан, пометен и украшен.
45 Then [this evil spirit] goes and gets seven other spirits that are [even] more evil, and they [all] enter [that person] and [begin] living there. [So, although] that person’s condition [was bad] before, it becomes much worse. That is what [you] wicked people who [have heard me teach] will experience.”
Тада отиде и узме седам других духова горих од себе, и ушавши живе онде; и буде потоње горе човеку оном од првог. Тако ће бити и овоме роду зломе.
46 While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his [younger] brothers [arrived]. They stood outside [the house], wanting to speak with him.
Док Он још говораше с људима, гле, мати Његова и браћа Његова стајаху напољу и чекаху да говоре с Њиме.
47 Someone said to him, “Your mother and your [younger] brothers are standing outside [the house], wanting to talk to you.”
И неко Му рече: Ево мати Твоја и браћа Твоја стоје на пољу, ради су да говоре с Тобом.
48 Then Jesus said to the person who told him [that], “([I will tell you something about] my mother and brothers [MET].[/Do you know] who I [consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [MET, RHQ]
А Он одговори и рече ономе што Му каза: Ко је мати моја, и ко су браћа моја?
49 He then pointed toward [us] disciples and said, “These are ones [whom I love as much as I love] my mother and my brothers [MET].
И пруживши руку своју на ученике своје рече: Ето мати моја и браћа моја.
50 Those who do what [God] my Father [who is] in heaven wants, are [as dear to me] [MET] [as] my brother, my sister, or my mother.”
Јер ко извршује вољу Оца мог који је на небесима, онај је брат мој и сестра и мати.
