Matthew, 12

1. At that time, Jesus went out through the ripe grain on the Sabbath. And his disciples, being hungry, began to separate the grain and to eat.

1. U ono vrijeme prolazio je Isus subotom kroz usjeve. Uèenici su njegovi ogladnjeli te poèeli trgati klasje i jesti.

2. Then the Pharisees, seeing this, said to him, “Behold, your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbaths.”

2. Vidjevši to, farizeji mu rekoše: "Gle, uèenici tvoji èine što nije dopušteno èiniti subotom."

3. But he said to them: “Have you not read what David did, when he was hungry, and those who were with him:

3. On im reèe: "Niste li èitali što uèini David kad ogladnje on i njegovi pratioci?

4. how he entered the house of God and ate the bread of the Presence, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?

4. Kako uðe u Dom Božji te pojedoše prinesene kruhove, a to ne bijaše slobodno jesti ni njemu ni njegovim pratiocima, nego samo sveæenicima?

5. Or have you not read in the law, that on the Sabbaths the priests in the temple violate the Sabbath, and they are without guilt?

5. Ili zar niste èitali u Zakonu da subotom sveæenici u Hramu krše subotu, a bez krivnje su?

6. But I say to you, that something greater than the temple is here.

6. A velim vam: veæe od Hrama jest ovdje!

7. And if you knew what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you would never have condemned the innocent.

7. I kad biste razumjeli što ono znaèi: Milosrðe mi je milo, a ne žrtva, ne biste osudili ove nekrive.

8. For the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”

8. Ta Sin Èovjeèji gospodar je subote!"

9. And when he had passed from there, he went into their synagogues.

9. Otišavši odande, doðe u njihovu sinagogu,

10. And behold, there was a man who had a withered hand, and they questioned him, so that they might accuse him, saying, “Is it lawful to cure on the Sabbaths?”

10. kad gle èovjeka s usahlom rukom. A oni upitaše Isusa da bi ga mogli optužiti: "Je li dopušteno subotom lijeèiti?"

11. But he said to them: “Who is there among you, having even one sheep, if it will have fallen into a pit on the Sabbath, would not take hold of it and lift it up?

11. On im reèe: "Tko to od vas jedinu ovcu koju ima ne bi subotom prihvatio i izvadio kad bi mu upala u jamu?

12. How much better is a man than a sheep? And so, it is lawful to do good on the Sabbaths.”

12. A koliko je èovjek vredniji od ovce! Tako, slobodno je subotom èiniti dobro!"

13. Then he said to the man, “Extend your hand.” And he extended it, and it was restored to health, just like the other one.

13. Tada reèe èovjeku: "Ispruži ruku!" On je ispruži, i - ruka mu zdrava kao i druga!

14. Then the Pharisees, departing, took council against him, as to how they might destroy him.

14. A farizeji iziðoše i održaše vijeæanje protiv njega, kako da ga pogube.

15. But Jesus, knowing this, withdrew from there. And many followed him, and he cured them all.

15. Kad Isus to dozna, ukloni se odande. Za njim je išlo mnoštvo. On ih sve ozdravi

16. And he instructed them, lest they make him known.

16. i poprijeti im da ga ne prokazuju -

17. Then what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah was fulfilled, saying:

17. da se ispuni što je reèeno po Izaiji proroku:

18. “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will place my Spirit over him, and he shall announce judgment to the nations.

18. Evo Sluge mojega, koga sebi izabrah: mog ljubimca, miljenika duše moje! Stavit æu Duha svoga na njega: naviještat æe pravo narodima;

19. He shall not contend, nor cry out, neither shall anyone hear his voice in the streets.

19. preti se neæe, neæe buèiti, glas mu se neæe èuti po trgovima;

20. He shall not crush the bruised reed, and he shall not extinguish the smoking wick, until he sends forth judgment unto victory.

20. trske stuèene prelomiti neæe, stijenja što tek tinja neæe ugasiti - sve dok do pobjede ne izvede pravo.

21. And the Gentiles shall hope in his name.”

21. Ime njegovo nada je narodima!

22. Then one who had a demon, who was blind and mute, was brought to him. And he cured him, so that he spoke and saw.

22. Tada mu donesoše opsjednuta, slijepa i nijema. I ozdravi ga te njemak progovori i progleda.

23. And all the crowds were stupefied, and they said, “Could this be the son of David?”

23. I sve ono mnoštvo zapanjeno govoraše: "Da ovo nije Sin Davidov?"

24. But the Pharisees, hearing it, said, “This man does not cast out demons, except by Beelzebub, the prince of the demons.”

24. A farizeji èuvši to rekoše: "Ne može ovaj izgoniti ðavle osim po Beelzebulu, poglavici ðavolskom."

25. But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself will become desolate. And every city or house divided against itself will not stand.

25. A on, znajuæi njihove misli, reèe im: "Svako kraljevstvo u sebi razdijeljeno opustjet æe i svaki grad ili kuæa u sebi razdijeljena neæe opstati.

26. So if Satan casts out Satan, then he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?

26. Ako Sotona Sotonu izgoni, u sebi je razdijeljen. Kako æe dakle opstati kraljevstvo njegovo?

27. And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your own sons cast them out? Therefore, they shall be your judges.

27. I ako ja po Beelzebulu izgonim ðavle, po kome ih sinovi vaši izgone? Zato æe vam oni biti suci.

28. But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has arrived among you.

28. Ali ako ja po Duhu Božjem izgonim ðavle, zbilja je došlo k vama kraljevstvo Božje."

29. Or how can anyone enter into the house of a strong man, and plunder his belongings, unless he first restrains the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.

29. "Ili kako bi tko mogao uæi u kuæu jakoga i oplijeniti mu pokuæstvo ako prije ne sveže jakoga? Tada æe mu kuæu oplijeniti."

30. Whoever is not with me, is against me. And whoever does not gather with me, scatters.

30. "Tko nije sa mnom, protiv mene je, i tko ne sabire sa mnom, rasipa."

31. For this reason, I say to you: Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven.

31. "Zato kažem vam: svaki æe se grijeh i bogohulstvo oprostiti ljudima, ali rekne li tko bogohulstvo protiv Duha, neæe se oprostiti.

32. And anyone who will have spoken a word against the Son of man shall be forgiven. But whoever will have spoken against the Holy Spirit shall not be forgiven, neither in this age, nor in the future age.

32. I rekne li tko rijeè protiv Sina Èovjeèjega, oprostit æe mu se. Ali tko rekne protiv Duha Svetoga, neæe mu se oprostiti ni na ovom svijetu ni u buduæem."

33. Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree evil and its fruit evil. For certainly a tree is known by its fruit.

33. "Ili uzmite: dobro stablo i plod mu je dobar. Ili uzmite: trulo stablo i plod mu je truo. Ta po plodu se stablo poznaje.

34. Progeny of vipers, how are you able to speak good things while you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

34. Leglo gujinje! Kako možete govoriti dobro kad ste opaki. Ta iz obilja srca usta govore!

35. A good man offers good things from a good storehouse. And an evil man offers evil things from an evil storehouse.

35. Dobar èovjek iz riznice dobre vadi dobro, a zao èovjek iz riznice zle vadi zlo.

36. But I say to you, that for every idle word which men will have spoken, they shall render an account in the day of judgment.

36. A kažem vam: za svaku bezrazložnu rijeè koju ljudi reknu dat æe raèun na Dan sudnji.

37. For by your words shall you be justified, and by your words shall you be condemned.”

37. Doista, tvoje æe te rijeèi opravdati i tvoje æe te rijeèi osuditi."

38. Then certain ones from the scribes and the Pharisees responded to him, saying, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”

38. Jednom zapodjenuše s njime razgovor neki pismoznanci i farizeji: "Uèitelju, htjeli bismo od tebe vidjeti znak."

39. And answering, he said to them: “An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign. But a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

39. A on im odgovori: "Naraštaj opak i preljubnièki znak traži, ali mu se znak neæe dati doli znak Jone proroka.

40. For just as Jonah was in the belly of the whale for three days and three nights, so shall the Son of man be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights.

40. Doista, kao što Jona bijaše u utrobi kitovoj tri dana i tri noæi, tako æe i Sin Èovjeèji biti u srcu zemlje tri dana i tri noæi.

41. The men of Nineveh shall arise in judgment with this generation, and they shall condemn it. For, at the preaching of Jonah, they repented. And behold, there is a greater than Jonah here.

41. Ninivljani æe ustati na Sudu zajedno s ovim naraštajem i osuditi ga jer se oni na propovijed Joninu obratiše, a evo, ovdje je i više od Jone!

42. The Queen of the South shall arise in judgment with this generation, and she shall condemn it. For she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon. And behold, there is a greater than Solomon here.

42. Kraljica æe Juga ustati na Sudu zajedno s ovim naraštajem i osuditi ga jer je s krajeva zemlje došla èuti mudrost Salomonovu, a evo, ovdje je i više od Salomona!"

43. Now when an unclean spirit departs from a man, he walks through dry places, seeking rest, and he does not find it.

43. "A kad neèisti duh iziðe iz èovjeka, luta bezvodnim mjestima tražeæi spokoja, ali ne nalazi!

44. Then he says, ‘I will return to my house, from which I departed’. And arriving, he finds it vacant, swept clean, and decorated.

44. Tada rekne: 'Vratit æu se u kuæu odakle iziðoh.' I došavši, naðe je praznu, pometenu i ureðenu.

45. Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and live there. And in the end, the man becomes worse than he was at first. So, too, shall it be with this most wicked generation.”

45. Tada ode i uzme sa sobom sedam drugih duhova, gorih od sebe, te uðu i nastane se ondje. Na kraju bude s onim èovjekom gore nego na poèetku. Tako æe biti i s ovim opakim naraštajem."

46. While he was still speaking to the crowds, behold, his mother and his brothers were standing outside, seeking to speak with him.

46. Dok on još govoraše mnoštvu, eto majke i braæe njegove. Stajahu vani tražeæi da s njime govore.

47. And someone said to him: “Behold, your mother and your brothers are standing outside, seeking you.”

47. Reèe mu netko: "Evo majke tvoje i braæe tvoje, vani stoje i traže da s tobom govore."

48. But responding to the one speaking to him, he said, “Which one is my mother, and who are my brothers?”

48. Tomu koji mu to javi on odgovori: "Tko je majka moja, tko li braæa moja?"

49. And extending his hand to his disciples, he said: “Behold: my mother and my brothers.

49. I pruži ruku prema uèenicima: "Evo, reèe, majke moje i braæe moje!

50. For anyone who does the will of my Father, who is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.”

50. Doista, tko god vrši volju Oca mojega, koji je na nebesima, taj mi je brat i sestra i majka."
