Acts of the Apostles 13

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	Biblija Hrvatski
1 Now there were, in the Church at Antioch, prophets and teachers, among whom were Barnabas, and Simon, who was called the Black, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manahen, who was the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.	1 U antiohijskoj je Crkvi bilo proroka i učitelja: Barnaba, Šimun zvani Niger, Lucije Cirenac, Manahen, suothranjenik Heroda četverovlasnika, i Savao.
2 Now as they were ministering for the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said to them: “Separate Saul and Barnabas for me, for the work for which I have selected them.”	2 Dok su jednom obavljali službu Božju i postili, reče Duh Sveti: »De mi odlučite Barnabu i Savla za djelo na koje sam ih pozvao.«
3 Then, fasting and praying and imposing their hands upon them, they sent them away.	3 Onda su postili, molili, položili na njih ruke i otpustili ih.
4 And having been sent by the Holy Spirit, they went to Seleucia. And from there they sailed to Cyprus.	4 Poslani od Svetoga Duha siđu u Seleuciju, a odande odjedre na Cipar.
5 And when they had arrived at Salamis, they were preaching the Word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they also had John in the ministry.	5 Kad se nađoše u Salamini, navješćivahu riječ Božju u židovskim sinagogama. Imali su i Ivana za poslužitelja.
6 And when they had traveled throughout the entire island, even to Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-Jesu.	6 Pošto pak prođoše sav otok do Pafa, nađoše nekog vračara, nazoviproroka, Židova, imenom Barjesu.
7 And he was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. This man, summoning Barnabas and Saul, wanted to hear the Word of God.	7 On bijaše uz namjesnika Sergija Pavla, čovjeka razborita. Sergije dozva Barnabu i Savla te zaiska čuti riječ Božju,
8 But Elymas the magician (for so his name is translated) stood against them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the Faith.	8 ali im se usprotivi Elim, Vračar – tako mu se ime prevodi – nastojeći odvratiti namjesnika od vjere.
9 Then Saul, who is also called Paul, having been filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him,	9 Savao pak, zvan i Pavao, pun Duha Svetoga, ošinu ga pogledom
10 and he said: “So full of every deceit and of all falsehoods, son of the devil, enemy of all justice, you never cease to subvert the righteous ways of the Lord!	10 i reče: »Pun svake lukavosti i prevrtljivosti, sine đavolski, neprijatelju svake pravednosti, zar nikako da prestaneš iskrivljavati ravne putove Gospodnje?
11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you. And you will be blinded, not seeing the sun for a length of time.” And immediately a fog and a darkness fell over him. And wandering around, he was seeking someone who might lead him by the hand.	11 Evo stoga sada ruke Gospodnje na tebi: oslijepljet ćeš i neko vrijeme nećeš gledati sunca!« Odmah pade na nj mrak i tama te on glavinjajući stade tražiti ruke vodilje.
12 Then the proconsul, when he had seen what was done, believed, being in wonder over the doctrine of the Lord.	12 Videći što se dogodilo, povjerova tada namjesnik, zanesen naukom Gospodnjim.
13 And when Paul and those who were with him had sailed from Paphos, they arrived at Perga in Pamphylia. Then John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.	13 Pošto se Pavao i oni oko njega otisnuše od Pafa, stigoše u Pergu pamfilijsku. Ivan ih napusti te se vrati u Jeruzalem.
14 Yet truly, they, traveling on from Perga, arrived at Antioch in Pisidia. And upon entering the synagogue on the Sabbath day, they sat down.	14 Oni pak krenuše iz Perge i stigoše u Antiohiju pizidijsku. U dan subotnji ušli su u sinagogu i sjeli.
15 Then, after the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the leaders of the synagogue sent to them, saying: “Noble brothers, if there is in you any word of exhortation to the people, speak.”	15 Nakon čitanja Zakona i Prorokâ pošalju nadstojnici sinagoge k njima: »Braćo, rekoše, ima li u vas koja riječ utjehe za narod, govorite!«
16 Then Paul, rising up and motioning for silence with his hand, said: “Men of Israel and you who fear God, listen closely.	16 Nato usta Pavao, dadne rukom znak i reče: »Izraelci i vi koji se Boga bojite, čujte!
17 The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people, when they were settlers in the land of Egypt. And with an exalted arm, he led them away from there.	17 Bog naroda ovoga, Izraela, izabra oce naše i uzdiže narod za boravka u zemlji egipatskoj te ga ispruženom rukom izvede iz nje.
18 And throughout a time of forty years, he endured their behavior in the desert.	18 Oko četrdeset ga je godina na rukama nosio u pustinji
19 And by destroying seven nations in the land of Canaan, he divided their land among them by lot,	19 pa pošto zatre sedam naroda u zemlji kanaanskoj, ubaštini ga u zemlji njihovoj
20 after about four hundred and fifty years. And after these things, he gave them judges, even until the prophet Samuel.	20 za kakve četiri stotine i pedeset godina. Nakon toga dade im suce – do Samuela proroka.
21 And later on, they petitioned for a king. And God gave them Saul, the son of Kish, a man from the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.	21 Onda zaiskaše kralja pa im Bog za četrdeset godina dade Šaula, sina Kiševa, iz plemena Benjaminova.
22 And having removed him, he raised up for them king David. And offering testimony about him, he said, ‘I have found David, the son of Jesse, to be a man according to my own heart, who will accomplish all that I will.’	22 Pošto svrgnu njega, podiže im za kralja Davida za kojega posvjedoči: Nađoh Davida, sina Jišajeva, čovjeka po svom srcu, koji će ispuniti sve moje želje.
23 From his offspring, according to the Promise, God has brought Jesus the Savior to Israel.	23 Iz njegova potomstva izvede Bog po svom obećanju Izraelu Spasitelja, Isusa.
24 John was preaching, before the face of his advent, a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.	24 Pred njegovim je dolaskom Ivan propovijedao krštenje obraćenja svemu narodu izraelskomu.
25 Then, when John completed his course, he was saying: ‘I am not the one you consider me to be. For behold, one arrives after me, the shoes of whose feet I am not worthy to loosen.’	25 A kad je Ivan dovršavao svoju trku, govorio je: ‘Nisam ja onaj za koga me vi držite. Nego za mnom evo dolazi onaj komu ja nisam dostojan odriješiti obuće na nogama.’«
26 Noble brothers, sons of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, it is to you the Word of this salvation has been sent.	26 »Braćo, sinovi roda Abrahamova, vi i oni koji se među vama Boga boje, nama je upravljena ova Riječ spasenja.
27 For those who were living in Jerusalem, and its rulers, heeding neither him, nor the voices of the Prophets that are read on every Sabbath, fulfilled these by judging him.	27 Doista, žitelji Jeruzalema i glavari njihovi ne upoznaše njega ni riječi proročkih što se čitaju svake subote pa ih, osudivši ga, ispuniše.
28 And although they found no case for death against him, they petitioned Pilate, so that they might put him to death.	28 Premda ne nađoše nikakva razloga smrti, zatražiše od Pilata da ga smakne.
29 And when they had fulfilled everything that had been written about him, taking him down from the tree, they placed him in a tomb.	29 Pošto pak izvršiše sve što je o njemu napisano, skinuše ga s drveta i položiše u grob.
30 Yet truly, God raised him up from the dead on the third day.	30 Ali Bog ga uskrisi od mrtvih.
31 And he was seen for many days by those who went up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who even now are his witnesses to the people.	31 On se mnogo dana ukazivao onima koji s njim bijahu uzašli iz Galileje u Jeruzalem. Oni su sada njegovi svjedoci pred narodom.«
32 And we are announcing to you that the Promise, which was made to our fathers,	32 »I mi vam navješćujemo evanđelje: obećanje dano ocima
33 has been fulfilled by God for our children by raising up Jesus, just as it has been written in the second Psalm also: ‘You are my Son. This day I have begotten you.’	33 Bog je ispunio djeci, nama, uskrisivši Isusa, kao što je i pisano u Psalmu drugom: Ti si Sin moj, danas te rodih.
34 Now, since he raised him from the dead, so as to no longer return to corruption, he has said this: ‘I will give to you the holy things of David, the faithful one.’	34 Da ga pak uskrisi od mrtvih te se on više nikad neće vratiti u trulež, rekao je ovime: Dat ću vama svetinje Davidove, pouzdane.
35 And also then, in another place, he says: ‘You will not allow your Holy One to see corruption.’	35 Zato i na drugome mjestu kaže: Nećeš dati da Svetac tvoj ugleda truleži.
36 For David, when he had ministered to his generation in accordance with the will of God, fell asleep, and he was placed next to his fathers, and he saw corruption.	36 David doista, pošto u svom naraštaju posluži volji Božjoj, preminu, pridruži se ocima svojim i vidje trulež,
37 Yet truly, he whom God has raised from the dead has not seen corruption.	37 a Onaj koga Bog uskrisi ne vidje truleži.
38 Therefore, let it be known to you, noble brothers, that through him is announced to you remission from sins and from everything by which you were not able to be justified in the law of Moses.	38 /
39 In him, all who believe are justified.	39 Neka vam dakle, braćo, znano bude: po Ovome vam se navješćuje oproštenje grijeha! Po Ovome se tko god vjeruje, opravdava od svega od čega se po Mojsijevu zakonu niste mogli opravdati!
40 Therefore, be careful, lest what was said by the Prophets may overwhelm you:	40 Pazite da se ne zbude što je rečeno u Prorocima:
41 ‘You despisers! Look, and wonder, and be scattered! For I am working a deed in your days, a deed which you would not believe, even if someone were to explain it to you.’ ”	41 Obazrite se, preziratelji, snebijte se i nestanite! Jer djelo činim u dane vaše, djelo u koje ne biste vjerovali da vam ga tko ispriča.«
42 Then, as they were departing, they asked them if, on the following Sabbath, they might speak these words to them.	42 Na izlasku su ih molili da im iduće subote o tome govore.
43 And when the synagogue had been dismissed, many among the Jews and the new worshipers were following Paul and Barnabas. And they, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.	43 A pošto se skup raspustio, mnogi Židovi i bogobojazne pridošlice pođoše za Pavlom i Barnabom koji su ih nagovarali ustrajati u milosti Božjoj.
44 Yet truly, on the following Sabbath, nearly the entire city came together to hear the Word of God.	44 Iduće se subote gotovo sav grad zgrnu čuti riječ Gospodnju.
45 Then the Jews, seeing the crowds, were filled with envy, and they, blaspheming, contradicted the things that were being said by Paul.	45 Kad su Židovi ugledali mnoštvo, puni zavisti psujući suprotstavljali su se onomu što je Pavao govorio.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas said firmly: “It was necessary to speak the Word of God first to you. But because you reject it, and so judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.	46 Na to im Pavao i Barnaba smjelo rekoše: »Trebalo je da se najprije vama navijesti riječ Božja. Ali kad je odbacujete i sami sebe ne smatrate dostojnima života vječnoga, obraćamo se evo poganima.
47 For so has the Lord instructed us: ‘I have set you as a light to the Gentiles, so that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’ ”	47 Jer ovako nam je zapovjedio Gospodin: Postavih te za svjetlost poganima da budeš na spasenje do nakraj zemlje.
48 Then the Gentiles, upon hearing this, were gladdened, and they were glorifying the Word of the Lord. And as many as believed were preordained to eternal life.	48 Pogani koji su slušali radovali su se i slavili riječ Gospodnju te povjerovaše oni koji bijahu određeni za život vječni.
49 Now the word of the Lord was disseminated throughout the entire region.	49 Riječ se pak Gospodnja pronese po svoj onoj pokrajini.
50 But the Jews incited some devout and honest women, and the leaders of the city. And they stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas. And they drove them away from their parts.	50 Ali Židovi potakoše ugledne bogobojazne žene i prvake gradske te zametnuše progon protiv Pavla i Barnabe pa ih izbaciše iz svoga kraja.
51 But they, shaking the dust from their feet against them, went on to Iconium.	51 Oni pak stresu prašinu s nogu protiv njih pa odu u Ikonij.
52 The disciples were likewise filled with gladness and with the Holy Spirit.	52 A učenici su se ispunjali radošću i Duhom Svetim.
