2 STF kao љto nam ih predaљe prvi samovici i sluge reиi, BSB BSB: just as they were handed down to us by the initial eyewitnesses and servants of the word.
3 STF namislih i ja, poљto sam sve dobro ispitao od poиetka, da ti to, silni Teofile, po redu napiљem, BSB BSB: Therefore, having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, it seemed good also to me to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus,
4 STF da vidiљ da su istinite reиi љto si ih иuo. BSB BSB: so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.
6 STF Oboje behu pravedni pred Bogom i ћivljahu po svima zapovestima i naredbama Gospodnjim bez mane. BSB BSB: Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and decrees of the Lord.
7 STF Dece nisu imali, jer Jelisaveta beљe nerotkinja, i oboje behu veж stari. BSB BSB: But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well along in years.
8 STF A dogodi se kad je on sluћio po redu иrede svoje pred Bogom, BSB BSB: One day while Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,
9 STF da, po obiиaju sveљtenstva, na njega pade kocka da uрu u hram Gospodnji i da kadi. BSB BSB: he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
10 STF A sve mnoљtvo naroda napolju se Bogu molilo u vreme kaрenja. BSB BSB: And at the hour of the incense offering, the whole congregation was praying outside.
11 STF I javi mu se anрeo Gospodnji, stojeжi s desne strane kadionog ћrtvenika. BSB BSB: Just then an angel of the Lord appeared to Zechariah, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.
12 STF I kad (ga) Zaharija vide, uplaљi se i spopade ga strah. BSB BSB: When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and gripped with fear.
13 STF A anрeo mu reиe: Ne boj se, Zaharija, jer je usliљena molitva tvoja: ћena tvoja Jelisaveta rodiжe ti sina, i nadeni mu ime Jovan. BSB BSB: But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to give him the name John.
14 STF I radovaжeљ se i veseliti, i mnogi жe se obradovati njegovu roрenju. BSB BSB: He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice at his birth,

18 STF I Zaharija reиe anрelu: Po иemu жu ja to poznati? Jer ja sam star, i ћena je moja u godinama. BSB BSB: “How can I be sure of this?” Zechariah asked the angel. “I am an old man, and my wife is well along in years.”
19 STF I anрeo odgovori i reиe mu: Ja sam Gavril koji stoji pred Bogom, i poslan sam da govorim s tobom i da ti javim ovu radost. BSB BSB: “I am Gabriel,” replied the angel. “I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news.
20 STF I, eto, onemeжeљ i neжeљ moжi govoriti do onoga dana kada жe se to zbiti, zato љto nisi verovao mojim reиima, koje жe se ispuniti u svoje vreme. BSB BSB: And now you will be silent and unable to speak until the day this comes to pass, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled at their proper time.”
21 STF I narod иekaљe Zahariju, i иuрahu se љto se zadrћao u hramu. BSB BSB: Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he took so long in the temple.
22 STF A kad iziрe, ne mogaљe im govoriti. Tada razumeљe da mu se neko javio u hramu. I on im davaљe znakove, i osta nem. BSB BSB: When he came out and was unable to speak to them, they realized he had seen a vision in the temple. He kept making signs to them but remained unable to speak.
23 STF I kad se navrљiљe dani njegove sluћbe, otide kuжi svojoj. BSB BSB: And when the days of his service were complete, he returned home.
24 STF A posle ovih dana zaиe Jelisaveta, ћena njegova, i krila se pet meseci, govoreжi: BSB BSB: After these days, his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. She declared,
25 STF Tako mi uиini Gospod u dane kad naumi da ukloni sramotu moju meрu ljudima. BSB BSB: “The Lord has done this for me. In these days He has shown me favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.”
27 STF i devojci, zaruиnici иoveka po imenu Josifa, iz doma Davidova. A devojci beљe ime Marija. BSB BSB: to a virgin pledged in marriage to a man named Joseph, who was of the house of David. And the virgin’s name was Mary.
28 STF I uрe k njoj i reиe: Zdravo, ti koja si stekla milost Boћju, Gospod (je) s tobom! BSB BSB: The angel appeared to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
29 STF A nju ove reиi zbuniљe i razmiљljaљe kakav bi ovo pozdrav bio. BSB BSB: Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
30 STF A anрeo joj reиe. Ne boj se, Marija; jer si naљla milost u Boga. BSB BSB: So the angel told her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
31 STF I, eto, zaиeжeљ i rodiжeљ sina, i nadenuжeљ mu ime Isus. BSB BSB: Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus.
32 STF Ovaj жe biti veliki nazvaжe se sin Najviљega, i daжe mu Gospod Bog presto Davida, oca njegova. BSB BSB: He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David,

35 STF A anрeo odgovori i reиe joj: Duh sveti doжi жe na tebe, i sila Najviљega oseniжe te. Zato жe se i sveto љto жe se roditi, nazvati Sin Boћji. BSB BSB: The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.
36 STF I, eto, Jelisaveta, roрaka tvoja, i ona zaиe sina u starosti svojoj, i ovo je љesti mesec njoj koju zovu nerotkinjom. BSB BSB: Look, even Elizabeth your relative has conceived a son in her old age, and she who was called barren is in her sixth month.
37 STF Jer u Boga je sve moguжe. BSB BSB: For no word from God will ever fail.”
39 STF A Marija se tih dana podiћe i pohita u gorski kraj, u jedan grad Judin. BSB BSB: In those days Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judah,
40 STF I uрu u kuжu Zaharijinu i pozdravi Jelisavetu. BSB BSB: where she entered the home of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.
41 STF I kad Jelisaveta иu pozdrav Marijin, zaigra dete u utrobi njezinoj. I Jelisaveta se napuni Duha svetoga, BSB BSB: When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
42 STF i povika iz glasa i reиe: Blagoslovena si ti meрu ћenama, i blagosloven je plod utrobe tvoje! BSB BSB: In a loud voice she exclaimed, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
43 STF I otkuda meni to da doрe i meni mati Gospoda moga? BSB BSB: And why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44 STF Jer, eto, kad doрe glas pozdrava tvoga u uљi moje, radosno zaigra dete u utrobi mojoj. BSB BSB: For as soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.
45 STF I blago onoj koja verova da жe se izvrљiti љto joj je Gospod rekao! BSB BSB: Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord’s word to her will be fulfilled.”
47 STF i raduje se duh moj Bogu, Spasitelju mome, BSB BSB: and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!

55 STF - kao љto govoraљe ocima naљim- prema Avramu i semenu njegovu do veka. BSB BSB: as He promised to our fathers, to Abraham and his descendants forever.”
56 STF I ostade Marija ko nje oko tri meseca, pa se onda vrati kuжi. BSB BSB: Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
57 STF A Jelisaveti doрe vreme da rodi, i rodi sina. BSB BSB: When the time came for Elizabeth to have her child, she gave birth to a son.

59 STF I u osmi dan doрoљe da obreћu dete, i nazivahu ga, po imenu oca njegova, Zaharija. BSB BSB: On the eighth day, when they came to circumcise the child, they were going to name him after his father Zechariah.
60 STF Ali mati njegova reиe: Ne, nego neka bude Jovan. BSB BSB: But his mother replied, “No! He shall be called John.”
61 STF I rekoљe joj: Nikog nema u rodbini tvojoj koji bi se tako zvao. BSB BSB: They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who bears this name.”
62 STF I dadoљe znak ocu njegovu, kako bi on hteo da mu bude ime. BSB BSB: So they made signs to his father to find out what he wanted to name the child.
63 STF I zaiska tablicu i napisa ovo: Jovan mu je ime. I zaиudiљe se svi. BSB BSB: Zechariah asked for a tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they were all amazed.
