John 7 (SAR) · Opened

1Nakon toga Isus je obilazio po Galileji; nije htio u Judeju jer su Židovi tražili da ga ubiju.After this, Jesus traveled throughout Galilee. He did not want to travel in Judea, because the Jews there were trying to kill Him.

2Bijaše blizu židovski Blagdan sjenica.However, the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near.

3Rekoše mu stoga njegova braća: “Otiđi odavle i pođi u Judeju da i tvoji učenici vide djela što činiš.So Jesus’ brothers said to Him, “Leave here and go to Judea, so that Your disciples there may see the works You are doing.

4Ta tko želi biti javno poznat, ne čini ništa u tajnosti. Ako već činiš sve to, očituj se svijetu.”For no one who wants to be known publicly acts in secret. Since You are doing these things, show Yourself to the world.”

5Jer ni braća njegova nisu vjerovala u njega.For even His own brothers did not believe in Him.

6Reče im nato Isus: “Moje vrijeme još nije došlo, a za vas je vrijeme svagda pogodno.Therefore Jesus told them, “Although your time is always at hand, My time has not yet come.

7Vas svijet ne može mrziti, ali mene mrzi jer ja svjedočim protiv njega: da su mu djela opaka.The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me, because I testify that its works are evil.

8Vi samo uziđite na blagdan. Ja još ne uzlazim na ovaj blagdan jer moje se vrijeme još nije ispunilo.”Go up to the feast on your own. I am not going up to this feast, because My time has not yet come.”

9To im reče i ostade u Galileji.Having said this, Jesus remained in Galilee.

10Ali pošto njegova braća uziđoše na blagdan, uziđe i on, ne javno, nego potajno.But after His brothers had gone up to the feast, He also went—not publicly, but in secret.

11A Židovi su ga tražili o blagdanu pitajući : “Gdje je onaj?”So the Jews were looking for Him at the feast and asking, “Where is He?”

12I među mnoštvom o njemu se mnogo šaptalo. Jedni govorahu: “Dobar je!” Drugi pak: “Ne, nego zavodi narod.”Many in the crowds were whispering about Him. Some said, “He is a good man.” But others replied, “No, He deceives the people.”

13Ipak nitko nije otvoreno govorio o njemu zbog straha od Židova.Yet no one would speak publicly about Him for fear of the Jews.

14Usred blagdana uziđe Isus u Hram i stade naučavati.About halfway through the feast, Jesus went up to the temple courts and began to teach.

15Židovi se u čudu pitahu: “Kako ovaj znade Pisma, a nije učio?”The Jews were amazed and asked, “How did this man attain such learning without having studied?”

16Nato im Isus odvrati: “Moj nauk nije moj, nego onoga koji me posla.“My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied. “It comes from Him who sent Me.

17Ako tko hoće vršiti volju njegovu, prepoznat će da li je taj nauk od Boga ili ja sam od sebe govorim.If anyone desires to do His will, he will know whether My teaching is from God or whether I speak on My own.

18Tko sam od sebe govori, svoju slavu traži, a tko traži slavu onoga koji ga posla, taj je istinit i nema u njemu nepravednosti.He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory, but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is a man of truth; in Him there is no falsehood.

19Nije li vam Mojsije dao Zakon? Pa ipak nitko od vas ne vrši Zakona.” “Zašto tražite da me ubijete?”Has not Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps it. Why are you trying to kill Me?”

20Odgovori mnoštvo: “Zloduha imaš! Tko traži da te ubije?”“You have a demon,” the crowd replied. “Who is trying to kill You?”

21Uzvrati im Isus: “Jedno djelo učinih i svi se čudite.Jesus answered them, “I did one miracle, and you are all amazed.

22Mojsije vam dade obrezanje - ne, ono i nije od Mojsija, nego od otaca - i vi u subotu obrezujete čovjeka.But because Moses gave you circumcision, you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath (not that it is from Moses, but from the patriarchs.)

23Ako čovjek može primiti obrezanje u subotu da se ne prekrši Mojsijev zakon, zašto se ljutite na mene što sam svega čovjeka ozdravio u subotu?If a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses will not be broken, why are you angry with Me for making the whole man well on the Sabbath?

24Ne sudite po vanjštini, nego sudite sudom pravednim!”Stop judging by outward appearances, and start judging justly.”

25Rekoše tada neki Jeruzalemci: “Nije li to onaj koga traže da ga ubiju?Then some of the people of Jerusalem began to say, “Isn’t this the man they are trying to kill?

26A evo, posve otvoreno govori i ništa mu ne kažu. Da nisu možda i glavari doista upoznali da je on Krist?Yet here He is, speaking publicly, and they are not saying anything to Him. Have the rulers truly recognized that this is the Christ?

27Ali za njega znamo odakle je, a kad Krist dođe, nitko neće znati odakle je!”But we know where this man is from. When the Christ comes, no one will know where He is from.”

28Nato Isus, koji je učio u Hramu, povika: “Da! Poznajete me i znate odakle sam! A ipak ja nisam došao sam od sebe: postoji jedan istiniti koji me posla. Njega vi ne znate.Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts, cried out, “You know Me, and you know where I am from. I have not come of My own accord, but He who sent Me is true. You do not know Him,

29Ja ga znadem jer sam od njega i on me poslao.”but I know Him, because I am from Him and He sent Me.”

30Židovi su otad vrebali da ga uhvate. Ipak nitko ne stavi na nj ruke jer još nije bio došao njegov čas.So they tried to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

31A mnogi iz mnoštva povjerovaše u nj te govorahu: “Zar će Krist, kada dođe, činiti više znamenja nego što ih ovaj učini?”Many in the crowd, however, believed in Him and said, “When the Christ comes, will He perform more signs than this man?”

32Dočuli farizeji da se to u mnoštvu o njemu šapće. Stoga glavari svećenički i farizeji poslaše stražare da ga uhvate.When the Pharisees heard the crowd whispering these things about Jesus, they and the chief priests sent officers to arrest Him.

33Tada Isus reče: “Još sam malo vremena s vama i odlazim onomu koji me posla.So Jesus said, “I am with you only a little while longer, and then I am going to the One who sent Me.

34Tražit ćete me i nećete me naći; gdje sam ja, vi ne možete doći.”You will look for Me, but you will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.”

35Rekoše nato Židovi među sobom: “Kamo to ovaj kani da ga mi nećemo naći? Da ne kani poći raseljenima među Grcima i naučavati Grke?At this, the Jews said to one another, “Where does He intend to go that we will not find Him? Will He go where the Jews are dispersed among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

36Što li znači besjeda koju reče: 'Tražit ćete me i nećete me naći; gdje sam ja, vi ne možete doći'?”What does He mean by saying, ‘You will look for Me, but you will not find Me,’ and, ‘Where I am, you cannot come’?”

37U posljednji, veliki dan blagdana Isus stade i povika: “Ako je tko žedan, neka dođe k meni! Neka pijeOn the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood up and called out in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.

38koji vjeruje u mene! Kao što reče Pismo: 'Rijeke će žive vode poteći iz njegove utrobe!'”Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said: ‘Streams of living water will flow from within him.’”

39To reče o Duhu kojega su imali primiti oni što vjeruju u njega. Tada doista ne bijaše još došao Duh jer Isus nije bio proslavljen.He was speaking about the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive. For the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

40Kad su neki iz naroda čuli te riječi, govorahu: “Ovo je uistinu Prorok.”On hearing these words, some of the people said, “This is truly the Prophet.”

41Drugi govorahu: “Ovo je Krist.” A bilo ih je i koji su pitali: “Pa zar Krist dolazi iz Galileje?Others declared, “This is the Christ.” But still others asked, “How can the Christ come from Galilee?

42Ne kaže li Pismo da Krist dolazi iz potomstva Davidova, i to iz Betlehema, mjesta gdje bijaše David?”Doesn’t the Scripture say that the Christ will come from the line of David and from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?”

43Tako je u narodu nastala podvojenost zbog njega.So there was division in the crowd because of Jesus.

44Neki ga čak htjedoše uhvatiti, ali nitko ne stavi na nj ruke.Some of them wanted to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him.

45Dođoše dakle stražari glavarima svećeničkim i farizejima, a ovi im rekoše: “Zašto ga ne dovedoste?”Then the officers returned to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why didn’t you bring Him in?”

46Stražari odgovore: “Nikada nitko nije ovako govorio.”“Never has anyone spoken like this man!” the officers answered.

47Nato će im farizeji: “Zar ste se i vi dali zavesti?“Have you also been deceived?” replied the Pharisees.

48Je li itko od glavara ili farizeja povjerovao u njega?“Have any of the rulers or Pharisees believed in Him?

49Ali ta svjetina koja ne pozna Zakona - to je prokleto!”But this crowd that does not know the law—they are under a curse.”

50Kaže im Nikodem - onaj koji ono prije dođe k Isusu, a bijaše jedan od njih:Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus earlier and who himself was one of them, asked,

51“Zar naš Zakon sudi čovjeku ako ga prije ne sasluša i ne dozna što čini?”“Does our law convict a man without first hearing from him to determine what he has done?”

52Odgovoriše mu: “Da nisi i ti iz Galileje? Istraži pa ćeš vidjeti da iz Galileje ne ustaje prorok.”“Aren’t you also from Galilee?” they replied. “Look into it, and you will see that no prophet comes out of Galilee.”

53I otiđoše svaki svojoj kući.Then each went to his own home.
