Luke 14

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	Biblija Hrvatski
1 One sabbath when he went to dine at the house of a ruler who belonged to the Pharisees, they were watching him.	1 Jedne subote dođe on u kuću nekoga prvaka farizejskog na objed. A oni ga vrebahu.
2 And behold, there was a man before him who had dropsy.	2 Kad evo: pred njim neki čovjek koji je imao vodenu bolest.
3 And Jesus spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath, or not?"	3 Nato Isus upita zakonoznance i farizeje: »Je li dopušteno subotom liječiti ili nije?«
4 But they were silent. Then he took him and healed him, and let him go.	4 A oni mukom ponikoše. On ga dotaknu, izliječi i otpusti.
5 And he said to them, "Which of you, having an ass or an ox that has fallen into a well, will not immediately pull him out on a sabbath day?"	5 A njima reče: »Ako komu od vas sin ili vol padne u bunar, neće li ga brže bolje izvući i u dan subotnji?«
6 And they could not reply to this.	6 I ne mogoše mu na to odgovoriti.
7 Now he told a parable to those who were invited, when he marked how they chose the places of honor, saying to them,	7 Promatrajući kako uzvanici biraju prva mjesta, kaza im prispodobu:
8 "When you are invited by any one to a marriage feast, do not sit down in a place of honor, lest a more eminent man than you be invited by him;	8 »Kada te tko pozove na svadbu, ne sjedaj na prvo mjesto da ne bi možda bio pozvan koji časniji od tebe,
9 and he who invited you both will come and say to you, 'Give place to this man,' and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place.	9 te ne dođe onaj koji je pozvao tebe i njega i ne rekne ti: ‘Ustupi mjesto ovome.’ Tada ćeš, postiđen, morati zauzeti posljednje mjesto.
10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when your host comes he may say to you, 'Friend, go up higher'; then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you.	10 Nego kad budeš pozvan, idi i sjedni na posljednje mjesto pa, kada dođe onaj koji te pozvao, da ti rekne: ‘Prijatelju, pomakni se naviše!’ Bit će ti to tada na čast pred svim sustolnicima,
11 For every one who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."	11 jer – svaki koji se uzvisuje, bit će ponižen, a koji se ponizuje, bit će uzvišen.«
12 He said also to the man who had invited him, "When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your kinsmen or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return, and you be repaid.	12 A i onome koji ga pozva, kaza: »Kad priređuješ objed ili večeru, ne pozivaj svojih prijatelja, ni braće, ni rodbine, ni bogatih susjeda, da ne bi možda i oni tebe pozvali i tako ti uzvratili.
13 But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind,	13 Nego kad priređuješ gozbu, pozovi siromahe, sakate, hrome, slijepe.
14 and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. You will be repaid at the resurrection of the just."	14 Blago tebi jer oni ti nemaju čime uzvratiti. Uzvratit će ti se doista o uskrsnuću pravednih.«
15 When one of those who sat at table with him heard this, he said to him, "Blessed is he who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God!"	15 Kad je to čuo jedan od sustolnika, reče mu: »Blago onome koji bude blagovao u kraljevstvu Božjem!«
16 But he said to him, "A man once gave a great banquet, and invited many;	16 A on mu reče: »Čovjek neki priredi veliku večeru i pozva mnoge.
17 and at the time for the banquet he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, 'Come; for all is now ready.'	17 I posla slugu u vrijeme večere da rekne uzvanicima: ‘Dođite! Već je pripravljeno!’
18 But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, 'I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it; I pray you, have me excused.'	18 A oni se odreda počeli ispričavati. Prvi mu reče: ‘Njivu sam kupio i valja mi poći pogledati je. Molim te, ispričaj me.’
19 And another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to examine them; I pray you, have me excused.'	19 Drugi reče: ‘Kupio sam pet jarmova volova pa idem okušati ih. Molim te, ispričaj me.’
20 And another said, 'I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.'	20 Treći reče: ‘Oženio sam se i zato ne mogu doći.’«
21 So the servant came and reported this to his master. Then the householder in anger said to his servant, 'Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor and maimed and blind and lame.'	21 »Sluga se vrati i javi to domaćinu. Tada domaćin, gnjevan, reče sluzi: ‘Iziđi brzo na trgove gradske i ulice pa dovedi ovamo prosjake, sakate, slijepe i hrome.’
22 And the servant said, 'Sir, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.'	22 I sluga reče: ‘Gospodaru, učinjeno je što si naredio i još ima mjesta.’
23 And the master said to the servant, 'Go out to the highways and hedges, and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled.	23 Reče gospodar sluzi: ‘Iziđi na putove i među ograde i prisili neka uđu da mi se napuni kuća.’
24 For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste my banquet.'"	24 A kažem vam: nijedan od onih pozvanih neće okusiti moje večere.«
25 Now great multitudes accompanied him; and he turned and said to them,	25 S njim je zajedno putovalo silno mnoštvo. On se okrene i reče im:
26 "If any one comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.	26 »Dođe li tko k meni, a ne mrzi svog oca i majku, ženu i djecu, braću i sestre, pa i sam svoj život, ne može biti moj učenik!
27 Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me, cannot be my disciple.	27 I tko ne nosi svoga križa i ne ide za mnom, ne može biti moj učenik!«
28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?	28 »Tko od vas, nakanivši graditi kulu, neće prije sjesti i proračunati troškove ima li čime dovršiti:
29 Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him,	29 da ga ne bi – pošto već postavi temelj, a ne mogne dovršiti – počeli ismjehivati svi koji to vide:
30 saying, 'This man began to build, and was not able to finish.'	30 ‘Ovaj čovjek poče graditi, a ne može dovršiti!’
31 Or what king, going to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and take counsel whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?	31 Ili koji kralj kad polazi da se zarati s drugim kraljem, neće prije sjesti i promisliti da li s deset tisuća može presresti onoga koji na nj dolazi s dvadeset tisuća?
32 And if not, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an embassy and asks terms of peace.	32 Ako ne može, dok je onaj još daleko, poslat će poslanstvo da zaište mir.«
33 So therefore, whoever of you does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple."	33 »Tako dakle nijedan od vas koji se ne odrekne svega što posjeduje, ne može biti moj učenik.«
34 "Salt is good; but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltness be restored?	34 »Dobra je sol. Ali ako i sol obljutavi, čime će se ona začiniti?
35 It is fit neither for the land nor for the dunghill; men throw it away. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."	35 Nije prikladna ni za zemlju ni za gnojište. Van se baca. Tko ima uši da čuje, neka čuje!«
