Hebrews, 10

1. For the law contains the shadow of future good things, not the very image of these things. So, by the very same sacrifices which they offer ceaselessly each year, they can never cause these to approach perfection.

1. Buduæi da Zakon ima tek sjenu buduæih dobara, a ne sam lik zbiljnosti, on uistinu žrtvama koje se - iz godine u godinu iste - neprestano prinose ne može nikada usavršiti one što pristupaju.

2. Otherwise, they would have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, once cleansed, would no longer be conscious of any sin.

2. Ta ne bi li se prestale prinositi kad bogoslužnici, jednom oèišæeni, ne bi više imali nikakve svijesti grijeha?

3. Instead, in these things, a commemoration of sins is made every year.

3. Ali po njima se iz godine u godinu podsjeæa na grijehe.

4. For it is impossible for sins to be taken away by the blood of oxen and goats.

4. Jer krv bikova i jaraca nikako ne može odnijeti grijeha.

5. For this reason, as Christ enters into the world, he says: “Sacrifice and oblation, you did not want. But you have fashioned a body for me.

5. Zato On ulazeæi u svijet veli: Žrtva i prinos ne mile ti se, nego si mi tijelo pripravio;

6. Holocausts for sin were not pleasing to you.

6. paljenice i okajnice ne sviðaju ti se.

7. Then I said, ‘Behold, I draw near.’ At the head of the book, it has been written of me that I should do your will, O God.”

7. Tada rekoh: "Evo dolazim!" U svitku knjige piše za mene: "Vršiti, Bože, volju tvoju!"

8. In the above, by saying, “Sacrifices, and oblations, and holocausts for sin, you did not want, nor are those things pleasing to you, which are offered according to the law;

8. Pošto gore reèe: Žrtve i prinosi, paljenice i okajnice - koje se po Zakonu prinose - ne mile ti se i ne sviðaju,

9. then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God,’ ” he takes away the first, so that he may establish what follows.

9. veli zatim: Evo dolazim vršiti volju tvoju! Dokida prvo da uspostavi drugo.

10. For by this will, we have been sanctified, through the one time oblation of the body of Jesus Christ.

10. U toj smo volji posveæeni prinosom tijela Isusa Krista jednom zauvijek.

11. And certainly, every priest stands by, ministering daily, and frequently offering the same sacrifices, which are never able to take away sins.

11. I svaki je sveæenik dan za danom u bogoslužju te uèestalo prinosi iste žrtve, koje nikako ne mogu odnijeti grijeha.

12. But this man, offering one sacrifice for sins, sits at the right hand of God forever,

12. A ovaj, pošto je prinio jednu jedincatu žrtvu za grijehe, zauvijek sjede zdesna Bogu

13. awaiting that time when his enemies will be made his footstool.

13. èekajuæi otad dok se neprijatelji ne podlože za podnožje nogama njegovim.

14. For, by one oblation, he has brought to fulfillment, for all time, those who are sanctified.

14. Jednim uistinu prinosom zasvagda usavrši posveæene.

15. Now the Holy Spirit also testifies for us about this. For afterward, he said:

15. A to nam svjedoèi i Duh Sveti. Pošto je doista rekao:

16. “And this is the testament which I will commit to them after those days, says the Lord. I will instill my laws in their hearts, and I will inscribe my laws on their minds.

16. "Ovo je Savez kojim æu se svezati s njima nakon ovih dana", Gospodin govori: "Zakone æu svoje staviti u njihova srca i upisati ih u dušu njihovu.

17. And I will no longer remember their sins and iniquities.”

17. I grijeha se njihovih i bezakonja njihovih neæu više spominjati."

18. Now, when there is a remission of these things, there is no longer an oblation for sin.

18. A gdje su grijesi oprošteni, nema više prinosa za njih.

19. And so, brothers, have faith in the entrance into the Holy of Holies by the blood of Christ,

19. Imamo dakle, braæo, slobodan ulaz u Svetinju po krvi Isusovoj -

20. and in the new and living Way, which he has initiated for us by the veil, that is, by his flesh,

20. put nov i živ što nam ga On otvori kroz zavjesu, to jest svoje tijelo;

21. and in the Great Priest over the house of God.

21. imamo i Velikog sveæenika nad kuæom Božjom.

22. So, let us draw near with a true heart, in the fullness of faith, having hearts cleansed from an evil conscience, and bodies absolved with clean water.

22. Pristupajmo stoga s istinitim srcem u punini vjere, srdaca škropljenjem oèišæenih od zle savjesti i tijela oprana èistom vodom.

23. Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope, without wavering, for he who has promised is faithful.

23. Èuvajmo nepokolebljivu vjeru nade jer je vjeran Onaj koji dade obeæanje.

24. And let us be considerate of one another, so as to prompt ourselves to charity and to good works,

24. I pazimo jedni na druge da se potièemo na ljubav i dobra djela

25. not deserting our assembly, as some are accustomed to do, but consoling one another, and even more so as you see that the day is approaching.

25. te ne propuštamo svojih sastanaka, kako je u nekih obièaj, nego se hrabrimo, to više što više vidite da se bliži Dan.

26. For if we sin willingly, after receiving knowledge of the truth, there is no sacrifice remaining for sins,

26. Jer ako svojevoljno griješimo pošto primismo spoznanje istine, nema više žrtve za grijehe,

27. but instead, a certain terrible expectation of judgment, and the rage of a fire that shall consume its adversaries.

27. nego strašno isèekivanje suda i bijesa ognja što æe proždrijeti protivnike.

28. If someone dies for acting against the law of Moses, and is shown no compassion because of two or three witnesses,

28. Je li tko prekršio Zakon Mojsijev, bez milosrða biva pogubljen na osnovi dvojice ili trojice svjedoka.

29. how much more, do you think, someone would deserve worse punishments, if he has tread upon the Son of God, and has treated the blood of the testament, by which he was sanctified, as unclean, and has acted with disgrace toward the Spirit of grace?

29. Zamislite koliko li æe goru kaznu zavrijediti tko Sina Božjega pogazi, i neèistom smatra krv Saveza kojom je posveæen, i Duha milosti pogrdi?

30. For we know that he has said: “Vengeance is mine, and I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge his people.”

30. Ta poznajemo Onoga koji je rekao: Moja je odmazda, ja æu je vratiti; i još: Sudit æe Gospodin svome puku.

31. It is dreadful to fall into the hands of the living God.

31. Strašno je upasti u ruke Boga živoga.

32. But call to mind the former days, in which, after being enlightened, you endured a great struggle of afflictions.

32. A spomenite se onih prvih dana kada ste, tek prosvijetljeni, izdržali veliku patnièku borbu:

33. And certainly, in one way, by insults and tribulations, you were made a spectacle, but in another way, you became the companions of those who were the object of such behavior.

33. ovamo javno izvrgnuti porugama i nevoljama, onamo postavši zajednièari onih s kojima se tako postupalo.

34. For you even had compassion on those who were imprisoned, and you accepted with gladness being deprived of your goods, knowing that you have a better and more lasting substance.

34. I doista, sa sužnjevima ste suosjeæali i s radošæu prihvatili otimanje dobara znajuæi da imate bolji, trajan posjed.

35. And so, do not lose your confidence, which has a great reward.

35. Ne gubite dakle pouzdanja! Pripada mu velika plaæa!

36. For it is necessary for you to be patient, so that, by doing the will of God, you may receive the promise.

36. Postojanosti vam uistinu treba da biste vršeæi volju Božju zadobili obeæano.

37. “For, in a little while, and somewhat longer, he who is to come will return, and he will not delay.

37. Jer još malo, sasvim malo, i Onaj koji dolazi doæi æe i neæe zakasniti

38. For my just man lives by faith. But if he were to draw himself back, he would not please my soul.”

38. A pravednik æe moj od vjere živjeti, ako li pak otpadne, ne mili se on duši mojoj.

39. So then, we are not sons who are drawn away to perdition, but we are sons of faith toward the securing of the soul.

39. A mi nismo od onih koji otpadaju, sebi na propast, nego od onih koji vjeruju na spas duše.
