Acts, 21

1. And after these things had happened, having reluctantly parted from them, we sailed a direct course, arriving at Cos, and on following the day at Rhodes, and from there to Patara.

1. Pošto se otrgosmo od njih, zaplovismo. Jedreæi ravno, stigosmo na Kos, a sutradan na Rod pa odande u Pataru.

2. And when we had found a ship sailing across to Phoenicia, climbing aboard, we set sail.

2. Kad naðosmo laðu za Feniciju, popesmo se i otplovismo.

3. Then, after we had caught sight of Cyprus, keeping it to the left, we sailed on to Syria, and we arrived at Tyre. For the ship was going to unload its cargo there.

3. Kad bijasmo napomol Cipru, ostavismo ga slijeva jedreæi prema Siriji. Pristadosmo u Tiru jer je ondje laða imala iskrcati tovar.

4. Then, having found the disciples, we lodged there for seven days. And they were saying to Paul, through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.

4. Pronaðosmo uèenike i ostadosmo ondje sedam dana. Oni po Duhu nagovarahu Pavla da ne uzlazi u Jeruzalem.

5. And when the days were completed, setting out, we went on; and they all accompanied us with their wives and children, until we were outside of the city. And we kneeled down at the shore and prayed.

5. Ali kad nam istekoše dani, ipak otputovasmo. Ispratiše nas svi, sa ženama i djecom, do izvan grada. Na žalu klekosmo i pomolismo se.

6. And when we had said farewell to one another, we climbed aboard the ship. And they returned to their own.

6. Pozdravismo se, popesmo se na laðu, a oni se vratiše kuæi.

7. Yet truly, having completed our journey by boat from Tyre, we descended to Ptolemais. And greeting the brothers, we lodged with them for one day.

7. Tako dovršismo plovidbu. Iz Tira stigosmo u Ptolemaidu. Pozdravili smo braæu i ostali jedan dan u njih.

8. Then, after setting out the next day, we arrived at Caesarea. And upon entering into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, we stayed with him.

8. Sutradan otputovasmo i stigosmo u Cezareju. Uðosmo u kuæu Filipa evanðelista, jednog od sedmorice, i ostadosmo kod njega.

9. Now this man had four daughters, virgins, who were prophesying.

9. On je imao èetiri kæeri djevice koje su prorokovale.

10. And while we were delayed for some days, a certain prophet from Judea, named Agabus, arrived.

10. Kako smo se zadržali mnogo dana, siðe iz Judeje neki prorok imenom Agab,

11. And he, when he had come to us, took Paul’s belt, and binding his own feet and hands, he said: “Thus says the Holy Spirit: The man whose belt this is, the Jews will bind in this way at Jerusalem. And they will deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.”

11. doðe k nama, uze Pavlov pojas, sveza sebi noge i ruke te reèe: "Ovo govori Duh Sveti: Èovjeka èiji je ovo pojas ovako æe svezati Židovi u Jeruzalemu i predati u ruke pogana."

12. And when we had heard this, both we and those who were from that place begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.

12. Kada smo to èuli, stadosmo mi i mještani zaklinjati Pavla da ne uzlazi u Jeruzalem.

13. Then Paul responded by saying: “What do you accomplish by weeping and afflicting my heart? For I am prepared, not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem, for the name of the Lord Jesus.”

13. Nato on odvrati: "Što plaèete i parate mi srce? Ta spreman sam ne samo biti svezan nego i umrijeti u Jeruzalemu za ime Gospodina Isusa."

14. And since we were not able to persuade him, we quieted, saying: “May the will of the Lord be done.”

14. A kako se nije dao nagovoriti, ušutjesmo rekavši: "Gospodnja budi volja!"

15. Then, after those days, having made preparations, we ascended to Jerusalem.

15. Nakon tih dana spremismo se i uzaðosmo u Jeruzalem.

16. Now some of the disciples from Caesarea also went with us, bringing with them a certain Cypriot named Mnason, a very old disciple, whose guests we would be.

16. S nama poðoše i uèenici iz Cezareje pa nas odvedoše k nekomu Mnasonu Cipraninu, starom uèeniku, da u njega odsjednemo.

17. And when we had arrived at Jerusalem, the brothers received us willingly.

17. Kad stigosmo u Jeruzalem, primiše nas braæa radosno.

18. Then, on the following day, Paul entered with us to James. And all the elders were assembled.

18. Sutradan ode Pavao zajedno s nama k Jakovu. Naðoše se ondje i sve starješine.

19. And when he had greeted them, he explained each thing that God had accomplished among the Gentiles through his ministry.

19. Pošto ih pozdravi, stade im potanko izlagati što uèini Bog meðu poganima po njegovoj službi.

20. And they, upon hearing it, magnified God and said to him: “You understand, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law.

20. Pošto su ga oni poslušali, dadoše slavu Bogu pa mu rekoše: "Vidiš, brate: deseci su tisuæa Židova povjerovali i svi su revnitelji Zakona.

21. Now they have heard about you, that you are teaching those Jews who are among the Gentiles to withdraw from Moses, telling them that they should not circumcise their sons, nor act according to custom.

21. A o tebi im je dojavljeno da sve Židove koji su meðu poganima upuæuješ na otpad od Mojsija uèeæi ih da ne obrezuju djece i ne žive po obièajima.

22. What is next? The multitude ought to be convened. For they will hear that you have arrived.

22. Što dakle? Èut æe svakako da si došao.

23. Therefore, do this thing that we ask of you: We have four men, who are under a vow.

23. Uèini stoga što ti kažemo. U nas su èetiri èovjeka koji imaju zavjet.

24. Take these and sanctify yourself with them, and require them to shave their heads. And then everyone will know that the things that they have heard about you are false, but that you yourself walk in keeping with the law.

24. Njih uzmi, s njima se zajedno posveti, plati za njih da se ošišaju pa æe svi spoznati da nema ništa od onoga što im je o tebi dojavljeno, nego da si i ti na pravu putu i da opslužuješ Zakon.

25. But, about those Gentiles who have believed, we have written a judgment that they should keep themselves from what has been immolated to idols, and from blood, and from what has been suffocated, and from fornication.”

25. A što se tièe pogana koji povjerovaše - poslali smo što odluèismo: da se klone mesa žrtvovana idolima, krvi, udavljenoga i bludništva."

26. Then Paul, taking the men on the next day, was purified with them, and he entered the temple, announcing the process of the days of purification, until an oblation would be offered on behalf of each one of them.

26. Nato Pavao uze one ljude, sutradan se s njima zajedno posveti, uðe u Hram, oglasi svršetak dana posveæenja nakon kojih æe se za svakoga od njih prinijeti prinos.

27. But when the seven days were reaching completion, those Jews who were from Asia, when they had seen him in the temple, incited all the people, and they laid hands on him, crying out:

27. Kad se upravo navršavalo tih sedam dana, neki ga Židovi iz Azije opaze u Hramu, uzbune sav narod pa podignu na nj ruke

28. “Men of Israel, help! This is the man who is teaching, everyone, everywhere, against the people and the law and this place. Furthermore, he has even brought Gentiles into the temple, and he has violated this holy place.”

28. vièuæi: "Izraelci, u pomoæ! Evo èovjeka koji sve posvuda pouèava protiv naroda, Zakona i ovoga mjesta pa je još i Grke uveo u Hram i oskvrnuo ovo sveto mjesto."

29. (For they had seen Trophimus, an Ephesian, in the city with him, and they supposed that Paul had brought him into the temple.)

29. Jer prije su s njime u Gradu vidjeli Trofima Efežanina i mislili da je Pavao njega uveo u Hram.

30. And the entire city was stirred up. And it happened that the people ran together. And apprehending Paul, they dragged him outside of the temple. And immediately the doors were closed.

30. Sav se grad uskomeša, nasta strka naroda. Pograbe Pavla i odvuku ga izvan Hrama pa odmah pozatvaraju vrata.

31. Then, as they were seeking to kill him, it was reported to the tribune of the cohort: “All Jerusalem is in confusion.”

31. Dok su mu o glavi radili, doðe do tisuænika èete glas da je sav Jeruzalem uzavreo.

32. And so, immediately taking soldiers and centurions, he rushed down to them. And when they had seen the tribune and the soldiers, they ceased to strike Paul.

32. On odmah uze vojnike i satnike pa otrèa dolje k njima. Oni pak kako ugledaše tisuænika i vojnike, prestadoše udarati Pavla.

33. Then the tribune, drawing near, apprehended him and ordered that he be bound with two chains. And he was asking who he was and what he had done.

33. Onda se tisuænik približi, uhvati ga, zapovjedi da ga okuju dvojim verigama pa stade ispitivati tko je i što je uèinio.

34. Then they were crying out various things within the crowd. And since he could not understand anything clearly because of the noise, he ordered him to be brought into the fortress.

34. Iz svjetine su jedni izvikivali ovo, drugi ono. Kako zbog graje nije mogao saznati ništa pouzdano, zapovjedi da se odvede u vojarnu.

35. And when he had arrived at the stairs, it happened that he was carried up by the soldiers, because of the threat of violence from the people.

35. Kad se Pavao pojavi na stubama, morali su ga vojnici nositi zbog silovitosti svjetine.

36. For the multitude of the people were following and crying out, “Take him away!”

36. Jer mnoštvo je naroda išlo za njima i vikalo: "Smakni ga!"

37. And as Paul was beginning to be brought into the fortress, he said to the tribune, “Is it permissible for me to say something to you?” And he said, “You know Greek?

37. Upravo na ulazu u vojarnu reèe Pavao tisuæniku: "Smijem li nešto reæi?" On ga upita: "Zar znaš grèki?

38. So then, are you not that Egyptian who before these days incited a rebellion and led out into the desert four thousand murderous men?”

38. Ti dakle nisi onaj Egipæanin koji je prije nekoliko dana pobunio i u pustinju odveo one èetiri tisuæe bodežara?"

39. But Paul said to him: “I am a man, indeed a Jew, from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of a well-known city. So I petition you, permit me to speak to the people.”

39. Pavao odvrati: "Ja sam Židov iz Tarza cilicijskoga, graðanin grada znamenitoga. Molim te, dopusti mi progovoriti narodu."

40. And when he had given him permission, Paul, standing on the stairs, motioned with his hand to the people. And when a great silence occurred, he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, saying:

40. Kad mu on dopusti, Pavao stojeæi na stubama mahnu rukom narodu pa kad nasta velika tišina, prozbori hebrejskim jezikom:
