Luke 3 (SRPONSTL)

1Bila je petnaesta godina vladavine cara Tiverija. Tada je Pontije Pilat upravljao Judejom, Irod je vladao Galilejom, a njegov brat Filip Iturejom i Trahonitidom, dok je Lisanija upravljao Avilinom.In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, while Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, Herod tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,

2Prvosveštenici su bili Ana i Kajafa. U to vreme je Bog pozvao Jovana, Zaharijinog sina, koji je bio u pustinji.during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness.

3Jovan je prošao celu oblast oko reke Jordan propovedajući pokajanje i krštenje radi oproštenja greha.He went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins,

4Ovako je, naime, napisano u Knjizi proroka Isaije: „Glas jednog pustinjom odzvanja: ’Put Gospodnji pripravite; drumove za njega poravnajte.as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for Him.

5Svaka će se dolina ispuniti, spustiće se svaka gora i brežuljak; što je strmo, postaće ravno, što je neravno, postaće glatko,Every valley shall be filled in, and every mountain and hill made low. The crooked ways shall be made straight, and the rough ways smooth.

6i svaki čovek će videti spasenje Božije.’“And all humanity will see God’s salvation.’”

7Mnogo naroda je dolazilo k Jovanu da ih krsti, ali on im je govorio: „Porode zmijski, ko vam je rekao da bežite pred nadolazećim gnevom Božijim?Then John said to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

8Nego, donesite plodove koji dokazuju pokajanje. I ne govorite u sebi: ’Avraham je naš otac!’, jer vam kažem da Bog može i od ovog kamenja da podigne decu Avrahamu.Produce fruit, then, in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.

9Već je sekira spremna da u korenu poseče drveta, jer svako drvo koje ne rađa dobar rod, odseca se i baca u vatru.“The axe lies ready at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”

10Narod ga je pitao: „Šta onda da činimo?“The crowds asked him, “What then should we do?”

11Jovan im odgovori: „Ko ima dve košulje, neka da jednu onome ko nema i ko ima hranu neka čini slično.“John replied, “Whoever has two tunics should share with him who has none, and whoever has food should do the same.”

12Došli su i poreznici da se krste, pa su i oni upitali Jovana: „Učitelju, šta mi da činimo?“Even tax collectors came to be baptized. “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?”

13Jovan im reče: „Ne uzimajte više od onoga što je propisano.““Collect no more than you are authorized,” he answered.

14I vojnici ga upitaju: „A šta da činimo mi?“ Jovan im odgovori: „Ne iznuđujte novac ni od koga i nikoga lažno ne optužujte, nego budite zadovoljni svojom platom.“Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” “Do not take money by force or false accusation,” he said. “Be content with your wages.”

15U narodu se probudila nada, pa su se svi pitali o Jovanu: „Da nije on Hristos?“The people were waiting expectantly and were all wondering in their hearts if John could be the Christ.

16Jovan im svima odgovori: „Ja vas krštavam vodom, ali posle mene dolazi neko ko je moćniji od mene. Ja nisam dostojan da odrešim remenje na njegovoj obući. On će vas krstiti Svetim Duhom i ognjem.John answered all of them: “I baptize you with water, but One more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

17U njegovoj ruci je lopata da oveje svoje gumno i da sabere žito u svoju žitnicu, a plevu će spaliti neugasivim ognjem.“His winnowing fork is in His hand to clear His threshing floor and to gather the wheat into His barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

18Jovan je i na mnogo drugih načina podsticao narod i naveštavao Radosnu vest.With these and many other exhortations, John proclaimed the good news to the people.

19A Jovan je javno prekorevao i tetrarha Iroda, zbog toga što je ovaj živeo sa Irodijadom, ženom svoga brata, i zbog svih zlodela koja je počinio.But when he rebuked Herod the tetrarch regarding his brother’s wife Herodias and all the evils he had done,

20Na sve to, Irod je dodao još jedno zlodelo: bacio je Jovana u tamnicu.Herod added this to them all: He locked John up in prison.

21Pošto se krstio sav narod, krstio se i Isus. Dok se molio, otvore se nebesa,When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened,

22te Duh Sveti siđe na njega u obliku goluba. Tada se začuo glas sa neba: „Ti si Sin moj voljeni, ti si mi sva radost!“and the Holy Spirit descended on Him in a bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”

23Isus je imao oko trideset godina kada je počeo da deluje. Svet je mislio da je on bio Josifov sin, a potomak: Ilijev,Jesus Himself was about thirty years old when He began His ministry. He was regarded as the son of Joseph, the son of Heli,
