Djela apostolska 5

Biblija Hrvatski	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Neki pak čovjek po imenu Ananija, zajedno sa svojom ženom Safirom proda imanje	1 But a certain man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a field,
2 pa u dogovoru sa ženom odvoji nešto od utrška, a samo jedan dio donese i postavi pred noge apostolima.	2 and he was deceitful about the price of the field, with his wife’s consent. And bringing only part of it, he placed it at the feet of the Apostles.
3 Petar mu reče: »Ananija, zašto ti Sotona ispuni srce te si slagao Duhu Svetomu i odvojio od utrška imanja?	3 But Peter said: “Ananias, why has Satan tempted your heart, so that you would lie to the Holy Spirit and be deceitful about the price of the land?
4 Da je ostalo neprodano, ne bi li tvoje ostalo; i jednoć prodano, nije li u tvojoj vlasti? Zašto si se na takvo što odlučio? Nisi slagao ljudima, nego Bogu!«	4 Did it not belong to you while you retained it? And having sold it, was it not in your power? Why have you set this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God!”
5 Kako Ananija ču te riječi, sruši se i izdahnu. I silan strah spopade sve koji su to čuli.	5 Then Ananias, upon hearing these words, fell down and expired. And a great fear overwhelmed all who heard of it.
6 Nato ustanu mladići, poviju ga, iznesu i pokopaju.	6 And the young men rose up and removed him; and carrying him out, they buried him.
7 Nakon otprilike tri sata uđe njegova žena ne znajući što se dogodilo.	7 Then about the space of three hours passed, and his wife entered, not knowing what had happened.
8 Petar joj reče: »Reci mi, jeste li za toliko dali imanje?« Ona odgovori: »Da, za toliko.«	8 And Peter said to her, “Tell me, woman, if you sold the field for this amount?” And she said, “Yes, for that amount.”
9 A Petar će joj: »Što vam bi da se složiste iskušati Duha Gospodnjega? Eto na vratima nogu onih koji ti pokopaše muža! I tebe će iznijeti!«	9 And Peter said to her: “Why have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they shall carry you out!”
10 Ona se umah sruši do njegovih nogu i izdahnu. Oni mladići uđu, nađu je mrtvu, iznesu je i pokopaju uz muža.	10 Immediately, she fell down before his feet and expired. Then the young men entered and found her dead. And they carried her out and buried her next to her husband.
11 I silan strah spopade cijelu Crkvu i sve koji su to čuli.	11 And a great fear came over the entire Church and over all who heard these things.
12 Po rukama se apostolskim događala mnoga znamenja i čudesa u narodu. Svi su se jednodušno okupljali u Trijemu Salomonovu.	12 And through the hands of the Apostles many signs and wonders were accomplished among the people. And they all met with one accord at Solomon’s portico.
13 Nitko se drugi nije usuđivao pridružiti im se, ali ih je narod veličao.	13 And among the others, no one dared to join himself to them. But the people magnified them.
14 I sve se više povećavalo mnoštvo muževa i žena što vjerovahu Gospodinu	14 Now the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord was ever increasing,
15 tako da su na trgove iznosili bolesnike i postavljali ih na ležaljkama i posteljama ne bi li, kad Petar bude prolazio, bar sjena njegova osjenila kojega od njih.	15 so much so that they laid the infirm in the streets, placing them on beds and stretchers, so that, as Peter arrived, at least his shadow might fall upon any one of them, and they would be freed from their infirmities.
16 A slijegalo bi se i mnoštvo iz gradova oko Jeruzalema: donosili bi bolesnike i opsjednute od nečistih duhova, i svi bi ozdravljali.	16 But a multitude also hurried to Jerusalem from the neighboring cities, carrying the sick and those troubled by unclean spirits, who were all healed.
17 Onda se podiže veliki svećenik i sve njegove pristaše – sljedba saducejska.	17 Then the high priest and all those who were with him, that is, the heretical sect of the Sadducees, rose up and were filled with jealousy.
18 Puni zavisti, pohvataju apostole i strpaju ih u javnu tamnicu.	18 And they laid hands on the Apostles, and they placed them in the common prison.
19 Ali anđeo Gospodnji noću otvori vrata tamnice, izvede ih i reče:	19 But in the night, an Angel of the Lord opened the doors of the prison and led them out, saying,
20 »Pođite i postojano u Hramu navješćujte narodu sve riječi Života ovoga.«	20 “Go and stand in the temple, speaking to the people all these words of life.”
21 Poslušni, u praskozorje su ušli u Hram te naučavali. Uto stiže veliki svećenik i njegove pristaše, sazovu Vijeće i sve starješinstvo sinova Izraelovih pa pošalju u zatvor da ih dovedu.	21 And when they had heard this, they entered the temple at first light, and they were teaching. Then the high priest, and those who were with him, approached, and they called together the council and all the elders of the sons of Israel. And they sent to the prison to have them brought.
22 Kad stražari stigoše onamo, ne nađoše ih u tamnici pa se vrate i jave:	22 But when the attendants had arrived, and, upon opening the prison, had not found them, they returned and reported to them,
23 »Zatvor smo našli sa svom pomnjom zatvoren i čuvare na straži pred vratima, ali kad smo otvorili, nikoga unutra ne nađosmo.«	23 saying: “We found the prison certainly locked up with all diligence, and the guards standing before the door. But upon opening it, we found no one within.”
24 Kad su hramski zapovjednik i veliki svećenici čuli te riječi, u nedoumici su se pitali što bi to moglo biti.	24 Then, when the magistrate of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were uncertain about them, as to what should happen.
25 Nato netko pristigne i dojavi im: »Eno, ljudi koje baciste u tamnicu, u Hramu stoje i uče narod.«	25 But someone arrived and reported to them, “Behold, the men whom you placed in prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people.”
26 Tada zapovjednik sa stražarima ode te ih dovede – ne na silu jer se bojahu da ih narod ne kamenuje.	26 Then the magistrate, with the attendants, went and brought them without force. For they were afraid of the people, lest they be stoned.
27 Dovedoše ih i privedoše pred Vijeće. Veliki ih svećenik zapita:	27 And when they had brought them, they stood them before the council. And the high priest questioned them,
28 »Nismo li vam strogo zabranili učiti u to ime? A vi ste eto napunili Jeruzalem svojim naukom i hoćete na nas navući krv toga čovjeka.«	28 and said: “We strongly order you not to teach in this name. For behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you wish to bring the blood of this man upon us.”
29 Petar i apostoli odvrate: »Treba se većma pokoravati Bogu negoli ljudima!	29 But Peter and the Apostles responded by saying: “It is necessary to obey God, more so than men.
30 Bog otaca naših uskrisi Isusa kojega vi smakoste objesivši ga na drvo.	30 The God of our fathers has raised up Jesus, whom you put to death by hanging him on a tree.
31 Njega Bog desnicom svojom uzvisi za Začetnika i Spasitelja da obraćenjem podari Izraela i oproštenjem grijeha.	31 It is he whom God has exalted at his right hand as Ruler and Savior, so as to offer repentance and the remission of sins to Israel.
32 I mi smo svjedoci tih događaja i Duh Sveti kojega dade Bog onima što mu se pokoravaju.«	32 And we are witnesses of these things, with the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to all who are obedient to him.”
33 Nato se oni razgnjeviše i htjedoše ih ubiti.	33 When they had heard these things, they were deeply wounded, and they were planning to put them to death.
34 Ali ustade u Vijeću neki farizej imenom Gamaliel, zakonoznanac, kojega je poštovao sav narod. On zapovjedi da ljude načas izvedu	34 But someone in the council, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law honored by all the people, rose up and ordered the men to be put outside briefly.
35 pa će vijećnicima: »Izraelci, dobro promislite što ćete s tim ljudima.	35 And he said to them: “Men of Israel, you should be careful in your intentions about these men.
36 Ta prije nekog vremena podiže se Teuda tvrdeći da je netko, i uza nj prista oko četiri stotine ljudi. Bi smaknut i sve mu se pristaše razbjegoše i netragom ih nesta.	36 For before these days, Theudas stepped forward, asserting himself to be someone, and a number of men, about four hundred, joined with him. But he was killed, and all who believed in him were scattered, and they were reduced to nothing.
37 Nakon toga se u dane popisa podiže Juda Galilejac i odvuče narod za sobom. I on propade i sve mu se pristaše raspršiše.	37 After this one, Judas the Galilean stepped forward, in the days of the enrollment, and he turned the people toward himself. But he also perished, and all of them, as many as had joined with him, were dispersed.
38 I sad evo kanite se, velim vam, tih ljudi i otpustite ih. Jer ako je taj naum ili to djelo od ljudi, propast će;	38 And now therefore, I say to you, withdraw from these men and leave them alone. For if this counsel or work is of men, it will be broken.
39 ako li je pak od Boga, nećete ga moći uništiti – da se i s Bogom u ratu ne nađete.« Poslušaju ga	39 Yet truly, if it is of God, you will not be able to break it, and perhaps you might be found to have fought against God.” And they agreed with him.
40 pa dozovu apostole, išibaju ih, zapovjede im da ne govore u ime Isusovo pa ih otpuste.	40 And calling in the Apostles, having beaten them, they warned them not to speak at all in the name of Jesus. And they dismissed them.
41 Oni pak odu ispred Vijeća radosni što bijahu dostojni podnijeti pogrde za Ime.	41 And indeed, they went forth from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were considered worthy to suffer insult on behalf of the name of Jesus.
42 I svaki su dan u Hramu i po kućama neprestance učili i navješćivali Krista, Isusa.	42 And every day, in the temple and among the houses, they did not cease to teach and to evangelize Christ Jesus.
