Acts, 1

1. Certainly, O Theophilus, I composed the first discourse about everything that Jesus began to do and to teach,

1. Prvu sam knjigu, Teofile, sastavio o svemu što je Isus èinio i uèio

2. instructing the Apostles, whom he had chosen through the Holy Spirit, even until the day on which he was taken up.

2. do dana kad je uznesen pošto je dao upute apostolima koje je izabrao po Duhu Svetome.

3. He also presented himself alive to them, after his Passion, appearing to them throughout forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God with many elucidations.

3. Njima je poslije svoje muke mnogim dokazima pokazao da je živ, èetrdeset im se dana ukazivao i govorio o kraljevstvu Božjem.

4. And dining with them, he instructed them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but that they should wait for the Promise of the Father, “about which you have heard,” he said, “from my own mouth.

4. I dok je jednom s njima blagovao, zapovjedi im da ne napuštaju Jeruzalema, nego neka èekaju Obeæanje Oèevo "koje èuste od mene:

5. For John, indeed, baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit, not many days from now.”

5. Ivan je krstio vodom, a vi æete naskoro nakon ovih dana biti kršteni Duhom Svetim."

6. Therefore, those who had assembled together questioned him, saying, “Lord, is this the time when you will restore the kingdom of Israel?”

6. Nato ga sabrani upitaše: "Gospodine, hoæeš li u ovo vrijeme Izraelu opet uspostaviti kraljevstvo?"

7. But he said to them: “It is not yours to know the times or the moments, which the Father has set by his own authority.

7. On im odgovori: "Nije vaše znati vremena i zgode koje je Otac podredio svojoj vlasti.

8. But you shall receive the power of the Holy Spirit, passing over you, and you shall be witnesses for me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the ends of the earth.”

8. Nego primit æete snagu Duha Svetoga koji æe siæi na vas i bit æete mi svjedoci u Jeruzalemu, po svoj Judeji i Samariji i sve do kraja zemlje."

9. And when he had said these things, while they were watching, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him from their sight.

9. Kada to reèe, bi uzdignut njima naoèigled i oblak ga ote njihovim oèima.

10. And while they were watching him going up to heaven, behold, two men stood near them in white vestments.

10. I dok su netremice gledali kako on odlazi na nebo, gle, dva èovjeka stadoše kraj njih u bijeloj odjeæi

11. And they said: “Men of Galilee, why do you stand here looking up toward heaven? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, shall return in just the same way that you have seen him going up to heaven.”

11. i rekoše im: "Galilejci, što stojite i gledate u nebo? Ovaj Isus koji je od vas uznesen na nebo isto æe tako doæi kao što ste vidjeli da odlazi na nebo."

12. Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain, which is called Olivet, which is next to Jerusalem, within a Sabbath day’s journey.

12. Onda se vratiše u Jeruzalem s brda zvanoga Maslinsko, koje je blizu Jeruzalema, udaljeno jedan subotni hod.

13. And when they had entered into the cenacle, they ascended to the place where Peter and John, James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Jude of James, were staying.

13. I pošto uðu u grad, uspnu se u gornju sobu gdje su boravili: Petar i Ivan i Jakov i Andrija, Filip i Toma, Bartolomej i Matej, Jakov Alfejev i Šimun Revnitelj i Juda Jakovljev -

14. All these were persevering with one accord in prayer with the women, and with Mary, the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.

14. svi oni bijahu jednodušno postojani u molitvi sa ženama, i Marijom, majkom Isusovom, i braæom njegovom.

15. In those days, Peter, rising up in the midst of the brothers, said (now the crowd of men altogether was about one hundred and twenty):

15. U one dane ustade Petar meðu braæom - a bijaše sakupljenog naroda oko sto i dvadeset duša - i reèe:

16. “Noble brothers, the Scripture must be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit predicted by the mouth of David about Judas, who was the leader of those who apprehended Jesus.

16. "Braæo! Trebalo je da se ispuni Pismo što ga na usta Davidova proreèe Duh Sveti o Judi koji bijaše voða onih što uhvatiše Isusa.

17. He had been numbered among us, and he was chosen by lot for this ministry.

17. A Juda se ubrajao meðu nas i imao udio u ovoj službi.

18. And this man certainly possessed an estate from the wages of iniquity, and so, having been hanged, he burst open in the middle and all his internal organs poured out.

18. On, eto, steèe predio cijenom nepravednosti pa se stropošta, raspuèe po sredini i razli mu se sva utroba.

19. And this became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that this field was called in their language, Akeldama, that is, ‘Field of Blood.’

19. I svim je Jeruzalemcima znano da se onaj predio njihovim jezikom zove Akeldama, to jest Predio smrti.

20. For it has been written in the book of Psalms: ‘Let their dwelling place be desolate and may there be no one who dwells within it,’ and ‘Let another take his episcopate.’

20. Pisano je doista u Knjizi psalama: Njegova kuæa nek opusti, nek ne bude stanovnika u njoj! Njegovo nadgledništvo nek dobije drugi!

21. Therefore, it is necessary that, out of these men who have been assembling with us throughout the entire time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

21. Jedan dakle od ovih ljudi što bijahu s nama za sve vrijeme što je meðu nama živio Gospodin Isus -

22. beginning from the baptism of John, until the day when he was taken up from us, one of these be made a witness with us of his Resurrection.”

22. poèevši od krštenja Ivanova pa sve do dana kad bi uzet od nas - treba da bude svjedokom njegova uskrsnuæa.

23. And they appointed two: Joseph, who was called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

23. I postaviše dvojicu: Josipa koji se zvao Barsaba a prozvao se Just, i Matiju.

24. And praying, they said: “May you, O Lord, who knows the heart of everyone, reveal which one of these two you have chosen,

24. Onda se pomoliše: "Ti, Gospodine, poznavaoèe svih srdaca, pokaži koga si od ove dvojice izabrao

25. to take a place in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas prevaricated, so that he might go to his own place.”

25. da primi mjesto ove apostolske službe kojoj se iznevjeri Juda da ode na svoje mjesto."

26. And they cast lots concerning them, and the lot fell upon Matthias. And he was numbered with the eleven Apostles.

26. Onda baciše kocke i kocka pade na Matiju; tako bi pribrojen jedanaestorici apostola.
