Matthew 11

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	Biblija Hrvatski
1 And when Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went on from there to teach and preach in their cities.	1 Pošto Isus završi upućivati dvanaestoricu učenika, ode odande naučavati i propovijedati po njihovim gradovima.
2 Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples	2 A kad Ivan u tamnici doču za djela Kristova, posla svoje učenike
3 and said to him, "Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?"	3 da ga upitaju: »Jesi li ti Onaj koji ima doći ili drugoga da čekamo?«
4 And Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John what you hear and see:	4 Isus im odgovori: »Pođite i javite Ivanu što ste čuli i vidjeli:
5 the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.	5 Slijepi progledaju, hromi hode, gubavi se čiste, gluhi čuju, mrtvi ustaju, siromasima se navješćuje evanđelje.
6 And blessed is he who takes no offense at me."	6 I blago onom tko se ne sablazni zbog mene.«
7 As they went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to behold? A reed shaken by the wind?	7 Kad oni odoše, poče Isus govoriti mnoštvu o Ivanu: »Što ste izišli u pustinju gledati? Trsku koju vjetar ljulja?
8 Why then did you go out? To see a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, those who wear soft raiment are in kings' houses.	8 Ili što ste izišli vidjeti? Čovjeka u mekušasto odjevena? Eno, oni što se mekušasto nose po kraljevskim su dvorima.
9 Why then did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.	9 Ili što ste izišli? Vidjeti proroka? Da, kažem vam, i više nego proroka.
10 This is he of whom it is written, 'Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.'	10 On je onaj o kome je pisano: Evo, ja šaljem glasnika svoga pred licem tvojim da pripravi put pred tobom.
11 Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.	11 Zaista, kažem vam, između rođenih od žene ne usta veći od Ivana Krstitelja. A ipak, i najmanji u kraljevstvu nebeskom veći je od njega!
12 From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and men of violence take it by force.	12 A od dana Ivana Krstitelja do sada kraljevstvo nebesko silom se probija i siloviti ga grabe.
13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John;	13 Uistinu, svi proroci i Zakon prorokovahu do Ivana.
14 and if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who is to come.	14 Zapravo ako hoćete: on je Ilija koji ima doći.«
15 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.	15 »Tko ima uši, neka čuje.«
16 "But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the market places and calling to their playmates,	16 »A komu da prispodobim ovaj naraštaj? Nalik je djeci što sjede na trgovima pa jedni drugima dovikuju:
17 'We piped to you, and you did not dance; we wailed, and you did not mourn.'	17 ‘Zasvirasmo vam i ne zaigraste, zakukasmo i ne zaplakaste.’«
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, 'He has a demon';	18 »Doista, dođe Ivan. Nije jeo ni pio, a govori se: ‘Đavla ima.’
19 the Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds."	19 Dođe Sin Čovječji koji jede i pije, a govori se: ‘Gle, izjelice i vinopije, prijatelja carinikâ i grešnikâ!’ Ali opravda se Mudrost djelima svojim.«
20 Then he began to upbraid the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent.	20 Tada stane prekoravati gradove u kojima se dogodilo najviše njegovih čudesa, a oni se ne obratiše:
21 "Woe to you, Chorazin! woe to you, Beth-saida! for if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.	21 »Jao tebi, Korozaine! Jao tebi, Betsaido! Da su se u Tiru i Sidonu zbila čudesa koja su se dogodila u vama, odavna bi se već oni u kostrijeti i pepelu bili obratili.
22 But I tell you, it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.	22 Ali kažem vam: Tiru i Sidonu bit će na Dan sudnji lakše negoli vama.«
23 And you, Caperna-um, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.	23 »I ti, Kafarnaume! Zar ćeš se do neba uzvisiti? Do u podzemlje ćeš se strovaliti! Doista, da su se u Sodomi zbila čudesa koja su se dogodila u tebi, ostala bi ona do danas.
24 But I tell you that it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you."	24 Ali kažem vam: Zemlji će sodomskoj biti na Dan sudnji lakše nego tebi.«
25 At that time Jesus declared, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes;	25 U ono vrijeme reče Isus: »Slavim te, Oče, Gospodaru neba i zemlje, što si ovo sakrio od mudrih i umnih, a objavio malenima.
26 yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.	26 Da, Oče, tako se tebi svidjelo.
27 All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.	27 Sve je meni predao Otac moj i nitko ne pozna Sina doli Otac niti tko pozna Oca doli Sin i onaj kome Sin hoće objaviti.«
28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.	28 »Dođite k meni svi koji ste izmoreni i opterećeni i ja ću vas odmoriti.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.	29 Uzmite jaram moj na sebe, učite se od mene jer sam krotka i ponizna srca i naći ćete spokoj dušama svojim.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."	30 Uistinu, jaram je moj sladak i breme moje lako.«
