Luke, 2

1. And it happened in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, so that the whole world would be enrolled.

1. U one dane izaðe naredba cara Augusta da se provede popis svega svijeta.

2. This was the first enrollment; it was made by the ruler of Syria, Quirinius.

2. Bijaše to prvi popis izvršen za Kvirinijeva upravljanja Sirijom.

3. And all went to be declared, each one to his own city.

3. Svi su išli na popis, svaki u svoj grad.

4. Then Joseph also ascended from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,

4. Tako i Josip, buduæi da je bio iz doma i loze Davidove, uziðe iz Galileje, iz grada Nazareta, u Judeju - u grad Davidov, koji se zove Betlehem -

5. in order to be declared, with Mary his espoused wife, who was with child.

5. da se podvrgne popisu zajedno sa svojom zaruènicom Marijom koja bijaše trudna.

6. Then it happened that, while they were there, the days were completed, so that she would give birth.

6. I dok se bili ondje, navršilo joj se vrijeme da rodi.

7. And she brought forth her firstborn son. And she wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them at the inn.

7. I porodi sina svoga, prvoroðenca, povi ga i položi u jasle jer za njih nije bilo mjesta u svratištu.

8. And there were shepherds in the same region, being vigilant and keeping watch in the night over their flock.

8. A u tom kraju bijahu pastiri: pod vedrim su nebom èuvali noænu stražu kod svojih stada.

9. And behold, an Angel of the Lord stood near them, and the brightness of God shone around them, and they were struck with a great fear.

9. Anðeo im Gospodnji pristupi i slava ih Gospodnja obasja! Silno se prestrašiše.

10. And the Angel said to them: “Do not be afraid. For, behold, I proclaim to you a great joy, which will be for all the people.

10. No anðeo im reèe: "Ne bojte se! Evo javljam vam blagovijest, veliku radost za sav narod!

11. For today a Saviour has been born for you in the city of David: he is Christ the Lord.

11. Danas vam se u gradu Davidovu rodio Spasitelj - Krist, Gospodin.

12. And this will be a sign for you: you will find the infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.”

12. I evo vam znaka: naæi æete novoroðenèe povijeno gdje leži u jaslama."

13. And suddenly there was with the Angel a multitude of the celestial army, praising God and saying,

13. I odjednom se anðelu pridruži silna nebeska vojska hvaleæi Boga i govoreæi:

14. “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men of good will.”

14. "Slava na visinama Bogu, a na zemlji mir ljudima, miljenicima njegovim!"

15. And it happened that, when the Angels had departed from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us cross over to Bethlehem and see this word, which has happened, which the Lord has revealed to us.”

15. Èim anðeli otiðoše od njih na nebo, pastiri stanu poticati jedni druge: "Hajdemo dakle do Betlehema. Pogledajmo što se to dogodilo, dogaðaj koji nam obznani Gospodin."

16. And they went quickly. And they found Mary and Joseph; and the infant was lying in a manger.

16. I pohite te pronaðu Mariju, Josipa i novoroðenèe gdje leži u jaslama.

17. Then, upon seeing this, they understood the word that had been spoken to them about this boy.

17. Pošto sve pogledaše, ispripovijediše što im bijaše reèeno o tom djetetu.

18. And all who heard it were amazed by this, and by those things which were told to them by the shepherds.

18. A svi koji su to èuli divili se tome što su im pripovijedali pastiri.

19. But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart.

19. Marija u sebi pohranjivaše sve te dogaðaje i prebiraše ih u svome srcu.

20. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told to them.

20. Pastiri se zatim vratiše slaveæi i hvaleæi Boga za sve što su èuli i vidjeli kako im je bilo reèeno.

21. And after eight days were ended, so that the boy would be circumcised, his name was called JESUS, just as he was called by the Angel before he was conceived in the womb.

21. Kad se navršilo osam dana da bude obrezan, nadjenuše mu ime Isus, kako ga je bio prozvao anðeo prije njegova zaèeæa.

22. And after the days of her purification were fulfilled, according to the law of Moses, they brought him to Jerusalem, in order to present him to the Lord,

22. Kad se zatim po Mojsijevu Zakonu navršiše dani njihova èišæenja, poniješe ga u Jeruzalem da ga prikažu Gospodinu -

23. just as it is written in the law of the Lord, “For every male opening the womb shall be called holy to the Lord,”

23. kao što piše u Zakonu Gospodnjem: Svako muško prvoroðenèe neka se posveti Gospodinu! -

24. and in order to offer a sacrifice, according to what is said in the law of the Lord, “a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons.”

24. i da prinesu žrtvu kako je reèeno u Zakonu Gospodnjem: dvije grlice ili dva golubiæa.

25. And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and God-fearing, awaiting the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Spirit was with him.

25. Živio tada u Jeruzalemu èovjek po imenu Šimun. Taj èovjek, pravedan i bogobojazan, išèekivaše Utjehu Izraelovu i Duh Sveti bijaše na njemu.

26. And he had received an answer from the Holy Spirit: that he would not see his own death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.

26. Objavio mu Duh Sveti da neæe vidjeti smrti dok ne vidi Pomazanika Gospodnjega.

27. And he went with the Spirit to the temple. And when the child Jesus was brought in by his parents, in order to act on his behalf according to the custom of the law,

27. Ponukan od Duha, doðe u Hram. I kad roditelji uniješe dijete Isusa da obave što o njemu propisuje Zakon,

28. he also took him up, into his arms, and he blessed God and said:

28. primi ga on u naruèje, blagoslovi Boga i reèe:

29. “Now you may dismiss your servant in peace, O Lord, according to your word.

29. "Sad otpuštaš slugu svojega, Gospodaru, po rijeèi svojoj, u miru!

30. For my eyes have seen your salvation,

30. Ta vidješe oèi moje spasenje tvoje,

31. which you have prepared before the face of all peoples:

31. koje si pripravio pred licem svih naroda:

32. the light of revelation to the nations and the glory of your people Israel.”

32. svjetlost na prosvjetljenje naroda, slavu puka svoga izraelskoga."

33. And his father and mother were wondering over these things, which were spoken about him.

33. Otac njegov i majka divili se što se to o njemu govori.

34. And Simeon blessed them, and he said to his mother Mary: “Behold, this one has been set for the ruin and for the resurrection of many in Israel, and as a sign which will be contradicted.

34. Šimun ih blagoslovi i reèe Mariji, majci njegovoj: "Ovaj je evo postavljen na propast i uzdignuæe mnogima u Izraelu i za znak osporavan -

35. And a sword will pass through your own soul, so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

35. a i tebi æe samoj maè probosti dušu - da se razotkriju namisli mnogih srdaca!"

36. And there was a prophetess, Anna, a daughter of Phanuel, from the tribe of Asher. She was very advanced in years, and she had lived with her husband for seven years from her virginity.

36. A bijaše neka proroèica Ana, kæi Penuelova, iz plemena Ašerova, žena veoma odmakla u godinama. Nakon djevojaštva živjela je s mužem sedam godina,

37. And then she was a widow, even to her eighty-fourth year. And without departing from the temple, she was a servant to fasting and prayer, night and day.

37. a sama kao udovica do osamdeset i èetvrte. Nije napuštala Hrama, nego je postovima i molitvama danju i noæu služila Bogu.

38. And entering at the same hour, she confessed to the Lord. And she spoke about him to all who were awaiting the redemption of Israel.

38. Upravo u taj èas nadoðe. Hvalila je Boga i svima koji išèekivahu otkupljenje Jeruzalema pripovijedala o djetetu.

39. And after they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their city, Nazareth.

39. Kad obaviše sve po Zakonu Gospodnjem, vratiše se u Galileju, u svoj grad Nazaret.

40. Now the child grew, and he was strengthened with the fullness of wisdom. And the grace of God was in him.

40. A dijete je raslo, jaèalo i napunjalo se mudrosti i milost je Božja bila na njemu.

41. And his parents went every year to Jerusalem, at the time of the solemnity of Passover.

41. Njegovi su roditelji svake godine o blagdanu Pashe išli u Jeruzalem.

42. And when he had become twelve years old, they ascended to Jerusalem, according to the custom of the feast day.

42. Kad mu bijaše dvanaest godina, uziðoše po obièaju blagdanskom.

43. And having completed the days, when they returned, the boy Jesus remained in Jerusalem. And his parents did not realize this.

43. Kad su minuli ti dani, vraæahu se oni, a djeèak Isus osta u Jeruzalemu, a da nisu znali njegovi roditelji.

44. But, supposing that he was in the company, they went a day’s journey, seeking him among their relatives and acquaintances.

44. Uvjereni da je meðu suputnicima, odoše dan hoda, a onda ga stanu tražiti meðu rodbinom i znancima.

45. And not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking him.

45. I kad ga ne naðu, vrate se u Jeruzalem tražeæi ga.

46. And it happened that, after three days, they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, listening to them and questioning them.

46. Nakon tri dana naðoše ga u Hramu gdje sjedi posred uèitelja, sluša ih i pita.

47. But all who listened to him were astonished over his prudence and his responses.

47. Svi koji ga slušahu bijahu zaneseni razumnošæu i odgovorima njegovim.

48. And upon seeing him, they wondered. And his mother said to him: “Son, why have you acted this way toward us? Behold, your father and I were seeking you in sorrow.”

48. Kad ga ugledaše, zapanjiše se, a majka mu njegova reèe: "Sinko, zašto si nam to uèinio? Gle, otac tvoj i ja žalosni smo te tražili."

49. And he said to them: “How is it that you were seeking me? For did you not know that it is necessary for me to be in these things which are of my Father?”

49. A on im reèe: "Zašto ste me tražili? Niste li znali da mi je biti u onome što je Oca mojega?"

50. And they did not understand the word that he spoke to them.

50. Oni ne razumješe rijeèi koju im reèe.

51. And he descended with them and went to Nazareth. And he was subordinate to them. And his mother kept all these words in her heart.

51. I siðe s njima, doðe u Nazaret i bijaše im poslušan. A majka je njegova brižno èuvala sve ove uspomene u svom srcu.

52. And Jesus advanced in wisdom, and in age, and in grace, with God and men.

52. A Isus napredovaše u mudrosti, dobi i milosti kod Boga i ljudi.
