Mark, 4

1. And again, he began to teach by the sea. And a great crowd was gathered to him, so much so that, climbing into a boat, he was seated on the sea. And the entire crowd was on the land along the sea.

1. I poèe opet pouèavati uz more. I zgrnu se k njemu silan svijet te on uðe u laðu i sjede na moru, a sve ono mnoštvo bijaše uz more, na kopnu.

2. And he taught them many things in parables, and he said to them, in his doctrine:

2. Pouèavao ih je u prispodobama mnogoèemu. Govorio im u pouci:

3. “Listen. Behold, the sower went out to sow.

3. "Poslušajte! Gle, iziðe sijaè sijati.

4. And while he was sowing, some fell along the way, and the birds of the air came and ate it.

4. I dok je sijao, poneko zrno pade uz put, doðoše ptice i pozobaše ga.

5. Yet truly, others fell upon stony ground, where it did not have much soil. And it rose up quickly, because it had no depth of soil.

5. Neko opet pade na kamenito tlo gdje nemaše dosta zemlje. Odmah izniknu jer nemaše duboke zemlje.

6. And when the sun was risen, it was scorched. And because it had no root, it withered away.

6. Ali kad ogranu sunce, izgorje; i jer nemaše korijenja, osuši se.

7. And some fell among thorns. And the thorns grew up and suffocated it, and it did not produce fruit.

7. Neko opet pade u trnje i trnje uzraste i uguši ga te ploda ne donese.

8. And some fell on good soil. And it brought forth fruit that grew up, and increased, and yielded: some thirty, some sixty, and some one hundred.”

8. Neko napokon pade u dobru zemlju i dade plod, razraste se i razmnoži, te donese: jedno tridesetostruko, jedno šezdesetostruko, jedno stostruko."

9. And he said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”

9. I doda: "Tko ima uši da èuje, neka èuje!"

10. And when he was alone, the twelve, who were with him, questioned him about the parable.

10. Kad bijaše nasamo, oni oko njega zajedno s dvanaestoricom pitahu ga o prispodobama.

11. And he said to them: “To you, it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God. But to those who are outside, everything is presented in parables:

11. I govoraše im: "Vama je dano otajstvo kraljevstva Božjega, a onima vani sve biva u prispodobama:

12. ‘so that, seeing, they may see, and not perceive; and hearing, they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they may be converted, and their sins would be forgiven them.’ ”

12. da gledaju, gledaju - i ne vide, slušaju, slušaju - i ne razumiju, da se ne obrate pa da im se otpusti."

13. And he said to them: “Do you not understand this parable? And so, how will you understand all the parables?

13. I kaže im: "Zar ne znate tu prispodobu? Kako æete onda razumjeti prispodobe uopæe?

14. He who sows, sows the word.

14. Sijaè sije Rijeè.

15. Now there are those who are along the way, where the word is sown. And when they have heard it, Satan quickly comes and takes away the word, which was sown in their hearts.

15. Oni uz put, gdje je Rijeè posijana, jesu oni kojima, netom èuju, odmah dolazi Sotona i odnosi Rijeè u njih posijanu.

16. And similarly, there are those who were sown upon stony ground. These, when they have heard the word, immediately accept it with gladness.

16. Zasijani na tlo kamenito jesu oni koji kad èuju Rijeè, odmah je s radošæu prime,

17. But they have no root in themselves, and so they are for a limited time. And when next tribulation and persecution arises because of the word, they quickly fall away.

17. ali nemaju u sebi korijena, nego su nestalni: kad nastane nevolja ili progonstvo zbog Rijeèi, odmah se sablazne.

18. And there are others who are sown among thorns. These are those who hear the word,

18. A drugi su oni u trnje zasijani. To su oni koji poslušaju Rijeè,

19. but worldly tasks, and the deception of riches, and desires about other things enter in and suffocate the word, and it is effectively without fruit.

19. ali nadošle brige vremenite, zavodljivost bogatstva i ostale požude uguše Rijeè te ona ostane bez ploda.

20. And there are those who are sown upon good soil, who hear the word and accept it; and these bear fruit: some thirty, some sixty, and some one hundred.”

20. A zasijani na dobru zemlju jesu oni koji èuju i prime Rijeè te urode: tridesetostruko, šezdesetostruko, stostruko.

21. And he said to them: “Would someone enter with a lamp in order to place it under a basket or under a bed? Would it not be placed upon a lampstand?

21. I govoraše im: "Unosi li se svjetiljka da se pod posudu stavi ili pod postelju? Zar ne da se stavi na svijeænjak?

22. For there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. Neither was anything done in secret, except that it may be made public.

22. Ta ništa nije zastrto, osim zato da se oèituje; i ništa skriveno, osim zato da doðe na vidjelo!

23. If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

23. Ima li tko uši da èuje, neka èuje."

24. And he said to them: “Consider what you hear. With whatever measure you have measured out, it shall be measured back to you, and more shall be added to you.

24. I govoraše im: "Pazite što slušate. Mjerom kojom mjerite mjerit æe vam se. I nadodat æe vam se.

25. For whoever has, to him it shall be given. And whoever has not, from him even what he has shall be taken away.”

25. Doista, onomu tko ima dat æe se, a onomu tko nema oduzet æe se i ono što ima."

26. And he said: “The kingdom of God is like this: it is as if a man were to cast seed on the land.

26. I govoraše im: "Kraljevstvo je Božje kao kad èovjek baci sjeme u zemlju.

27. And he sleeps and he arises, night and day. And the seed germinates and grows, though he does not know it.

27. Spavao on ili bdio, noæu i danju sjeme klija i raste - sam ne zna kako;

28. For the earth bears fruit readily: first the plant, then the ear, next the full grain in the ear.

28. zemlja sama od sebe donosi plod: najprije stabljiku, onda klas i napokon puno zrnja na klasu.

29. And when the fruit has been produced, immediately he sends out the sickle, because the harvest has arrived.”

29. A èim plod dopusti, brže se on laæa srpa jer eto žetve."

30. And he said: “To what should we compare the kingdom of God? Or to what parable should we compare it?

30. I govoraše: "Kako da prispodobimo kraljevstvo nebesko ili u kojoj da ga prispodobi iznesemo?

31. It is like a grain of mustard seed which, when it has been sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds which are in the earth.

31. Kao kad se gorušièino zrno posije u zemlju. Manje od svega sjemenja na zemlji,

32. And when it is sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all the plants, and it produces great branches, so much so that the birds of the air are able to live under its shadow.”

32. jednoæ posijano, naraste i postane veæe od svega povræa pa potjera velike grane te se pod sjenom njegovom gnijezde ptice nebeske."

33. And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as much as they were able to hear.

33. Mnogim takvim prispodobama navješæivaše im Rijeè, kako veæ mogahu slušati.

34. But he did not speak to them without a parable. Yet separately, he explained all things to his disciples.

34. Bez prispodobe im ne govoraše, a nasamo bi svojim uèenicima sve razjašnjavao.

35. And on that day, when evening had arrived, he said to them, “Let us cross over.”

35. Uveèer istoga dana kaže im: "Prijeðimo prijeko!"

36. And dismissing the crowd, they brought him, so that he was in one boat, and other boats were with him.

36. Oni otpuste mnoštvo i povezu Isusa kako veæ bijaše u laði. A pratile su ga i druge laðe.

37. And a great wind storm occurred, and the waves broke over the boat, so that the boat was being filled.

37. Najednom nasta žestoka oluja, na laðu navale valovi te su je veæ gotovo napunili.

38. And he was in the stern of the boat, sleeping on a pillow. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, does it not concern you that we are perishing?”

38. A on na krmi spavaše na uzglavku. Probude ga i kažu mu: "Uèitelju! Zar ne mariš što ginemo?"

39. And rising up, he rebuked the wind, and he said to the sea: “Silence. Be stilled.” And the wind ceased. And a great tranquility occurred.

39. On se probudi, zaprijeti vjetru i reèe moru: "Utihni! Umukni!" I smiri se vjetar i nasta velika utiha.

40. And he said to them: “Why are you afraid? Do you still lack faith?” And they were struck with a great fear. And they said to one another, “Who do you think this is, that both wind and sea obey him?”

40. Tada im reèe: "Što ste bojažljivi? Kako nemate vjere?"

41.

41. Oni se silno prestrašiše pa se zapitkivahu: "Tko li je ovaj da mu se i vjetar i more pokoravaju?"
