Tobija 4

Biblija Hrvatski	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Toga dana Tobit se sjeti novca što ga bijaše pohranio kod Gabaela, u Ragesu Medijskom.	1 In that day Tobit remembered the money which he had committed to Gabael in Rages of Media,
2 I reče u sebi: »Zazivao sam smrt; zašto ne bih radije dozvao Tobiju, svoga sina, da mu kažem to o novcu prije nego umrem?«	2 And said with himself, I have wished for death; wherefore do I not call for my son Tobias that I may signify to him of the money before I die?
3 Dozvavši ga, reče mu: »Sine, kada umrem, pristojno me pokopaj. Poštuj svoju majku, ne ostavljaj je svega svog života, čini sve što će joj biti milo i nemoj je žalostiti.	3 And when he had called him, he said, My son, when I am dead, bury me; and despise not thy mother, but honour her all the days of thy life, and do that which shall please her, and grieve her not.
4 Sjeti se, sine, da se ona suočila s mnogim opasnostima dok si joj bio u krilu. A kad umre, sahrani je pokraj mene u istome grobu.	4 Remember, my son, that she saw many dangers for thee, when thou wast in her womb: and when she is dead, bury her by me in one grave.
5 Svakog dana, sine, sjeti se Gospodina Boga našega; nemoj griješiti ili kršiti njegovih zapovijedi. Čini pravedna djela svega svog vijeka i ne kroči putovima nepravde.	5 My son, be mindful of the Lord our God all thy days, and let not thy will be set to sin, or to transgress his commandments: do uprightly all thy life long, and follow not the ways of unrighteousness.
6 Jer ako činiš po istini, uspijevat ćeš u djelima svojim, kao svi oni koji čine pravdu.	6 For if thou deal truly, thy doings shall prosperously succeed to thee, and to all them that live justly.
7 Dijeli milostinju od svoga dobra: kad dijeliš milostinju, neka ti ne bude oko stisnuto. Ne okreći lica od siromaha, pa ni Bog neće okrenuti lica od tebe.	7 Give alms of thy substance; and when thou givest alms, let not thine eye be envious, neither turn thy face from any poor, and the face of God shall not be turned away from thee.
8 Od onoga što imaš i prema tome koliko imaš dijeli milostinju: imaš li malo, daj malo, ali ne oklijevaj dati milostinju.	8 If thou hast abundance give alms accordingly: if thou have but a little, be not afraid to give according to that little:
9 Jer dobar polog spremaš sebi za dan potrebe.	9 For thou layest up a good treasure for thyself against the day of necessity.
10 Udijeljena milostinja oslobađa od smrti i ne dopušta da odeš u mrak.	10 Because that alms do deliver from death, and suffereth not to come into darkness.
11 Jer milostinja je mio dar pred licem Svevišnjega.	11 For alms is a good gift unto all that give it in the sight of the most High.
12 Čuvaj se, sine, svakoga preljuba. I pazi da ti žena bude iz plemena tvojih otaca; ne uzimaj za ženu tuđinku koja ne pripada koljenu tvoga oca, jer mi smo sinovi proročki. Noa, Abraham, Izak, Jakov naši su oci odiskona; sjeti se, sine, da su svi oni uzeli žene među svojom braćom i da su bili blagoslovljeni u svojoj djeci, njihovo potomstvo dobit će zemlju u nasljedstvo.	12 Beware of all whoredom, my son, and chiefly take a wife of the seed of thy fathers, and take not a strange woman to wife, which is not of thy father's tribe: for we are the children of the prophets, Noe, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: remember, my son, that our fathers from the beginning, even that they all married wives of their own kindred, and were blessed in their children, and their seed shall inherit the land.
13 I onda, sine, ljubi svoju braću i nemoj se uzoholiti u srcu pred svojom braćom, ni pred sinovima i kćerima svoga naroda, skanjujući se da odabereš ženu između njih! U oholosti leži mnoga propast i nemir, a od dangube samo je šteta i bijeda, jer je nerad majka gladi.	13 Now therefore, my son, love thy brethren, and despise not in thy heart thy brethren, the sons and daughters of thy people, in not taking a wife of them: for in pride is destruction and much trouble, and in lewdness is decay and great want: for lewdness is the mother of famine.
14 Neka ničija zarada ne prenoći kod tebe, nego je isplati odmah. Budeš li služio Bogu, platit će ti se. Razmišljaj, sine, o svakome svom djelu i lijepo se vladaj.	14 Let not the wages of any man, which hath wrought for thee, tarry with thee, but give him it out of hand: for if thou serve God, he will also repay thee: be circumspect my son, in all things thou doest, and be wise in all thy conversation.
15 Ne čini nikome što bi tebi samomu bilo mrsko. Ne pij vina do pijanosti; neumjerenost uklanjaj sa svoga puta.	15 Do that to no man which thou hatest: drink not wine to make thee drunken: neither let drunkenness go with thee in thy journey.
16 Dijeli svoj kruh s gladnima, a svojom odjećom odjeni gologa. Sve što ti je suvišno daj drugima, a kada dijeliš milostinju, neka ti oko ne bude stisnuto.	16 Give of thy bread to the hungry, and of thy garments to them that are naked; and according to thine abundance give alms: and let not thine eye be envious, when thou givest alms.
17 Metni svoj kruh na grob pravednih i ne daj ga grešnicima.	17 Pour out thy bread on the burial of the just, but give nothing to the wicked.
18 Obraćaj se uvijek onome tko je mudar i ne odbacuj korisna savjeta.	18 Ask counsel of all that are wise, and despise not any counsel that is profitable.
19 U svakoj prilici hvali Gospoda Boga i moli ga da ti upravlja putove, da sve tvoje staze i namjere dobro završe. Jer nijedan narod ne posjeduje mudrosti: Bog je onaj koji udjeljuje svako dobro, ponižava kako hoće, sve do dna carstva mrtvih. Sjeti se, sine, mojih pouka: neka ti se nikada iz srca ne izbrišu.	19 Bless the Lord thy God alway, and desire of him that thy ways may be directed, and that all thy paths and counsels may prosper: for every nation hath not counsel; but the Lord himself giveth all good things, and he humbleth whom he will, as he will; now therefore, my son, remember my commandments, neither let them be put out of thy mind.
20 A sada ću te, sine, uputiti glede onih deset srebrnih talenata koje sam pohranio u Gabaela, sina Gabrijeva, u Ragesu Medijskom.	20 And now I signify this to they that I committed ten talents to Gabael the son of Gabrias at Rages in Media.
21 Ne plaši se, sine, što smo osiromašili. Bit ćeš bogat budeš li se bojao Boga, klonio se svakoga grijeha i vršio ono što je Bogu milo.«	21 And fear not, my son, that we are made poor: for thou hast much wealth, if thou fear God, and depart from all sin, and do that which is pleasing in his sight.
