1 Prošavši pak Amfipolj i Apoloniju dođoše u Solun, gde beše zbornica jevrejska.
1 Y PASANDO por Amphípolis y Apolonia, llegaron á Tesalónica, donde estaba la sinagoga de los Judíos.
1 Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.
2 I Pavle po običaju svom uđe k njima, i tri subote razgovara se s njima iz pisma,
2 Y Pablo, como acostumbraba, entró á ellos, y por tres sábados disputó con ellos de las Escrituras,
2 Paul, as was his custom, went in to them; and for three Sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,
3 pokazujući i dokazujući im da je trebalo Hristos da postrada i vaskrsne iz mrtvih, i da ovaj Isus kog ja, reče, propovedam vama, jeste Hristos.
3 Declarando y proponiendo, que convenía que el Cristo padeciese, y resucitase de los muertos; y que Jesús, el cual yo os anuncio, [decía él], éste era el Cristo.
3 explaining and demonstrating that the Christ had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, “This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ.”
4 I neki od njih verovaše, i pristaše s Pavlom i sa Silom, i od pobožnih Grka mnoštvo veliko, i od žena gospodskih ne malo.
4 Y algunos de ellos creyeron, y se juntaron con Pablo y con Silas; y de los Griegos religiosos grande multitud, y mujeres nobles no pocas.
4 Some of them were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas: of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and not a few of the chief women.
5 Ali tvrdovrati Jevreji zaviđahu, i uzevši neke zle ljude od prostog naroda, i sabravši četu, uzbuniše po gradu, i napadoše na kuću Jasonovu, i tražahu da ih izvedu pred narod.
5 Entonces los Judíos que eran incrédulos, teniendo celos, tomaron consigo á algunos ociosos, malos hombres, y juntando compañía, alborotaron la ciudad; y acometiendo á la casa de Jasón, procuraban sacarlos al pueblo.
5 But the unpersuaded Jews took along some wicked men from the marketplace and gathering a crowd, set the city in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.
6 A kad njih ne nađoše, povukoše Jasona i neke od braće pred starešine gradske vičući: Ovi što zamutiše vasioni svet dođoše i ovde,
6 Mas no hallándolos, trajeron á Jasón y á algunos hermanos á los gobernadores de la ciudad, dando voces: Estos que alborotan el mundo, también han venido acá;
6 When they didn’t find them, they dragged Jason and certain brothers before the rulers of the city, crying, “These who have turned the world upside down have come here also,
7 koje Jason primi; i ovi svi rade protiv ćesarevih zapovesti, govoreći da ima drugi car, Isus.
7 A los cuales Jasón ha recibido; y todos estos hacen contra los decretos de César, diciendo que hay otro rey, Jesús.
7 whom Jason has received. These all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus!”
8 I smutiše narod i starešine gradske koji ovo čuše.
8 Y alborotaron al pueblo y á los gobernadores de la ciudad, oyendo estas cosas.
8 The multitude and the rulers of the city were troubled when they heard these things.
9 Ali kad ih Jason i ostali zadovoljiše odgovorom, pustiše ih.
9 Mas recibida satisfacción de Jasón y de los demás, los soltaron.
9 When they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.
10 A braća odmah noću opraviše Pavla i Silu u Veriju. Došavši onamo uđoše u zbornicu jevrejsku.
10 Entonces los hermanos, luego de noche, enviaron á Pablo y á Silas á Berea; los cuales habiendo llegado, entraron en la sinagoga de los Judíos.
10 The brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroea. When they arrived, they went into the Jewish synagogue.
11 Ovi pak behu plemenitiji od onih što žive u Solunu; oni primiše reč sa svim srcem, i svaki dan istraživahu po pismu je li to tako.
11 Y fueron éstos más nobles que los que [estaban] en Tesalónica, pues recibieron la palabra con toda solicitud, escudriñando cada día las Escrituras, si estas cosas eran así.
11 Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.
12 Tako verovaše mnogi od njih, i od poštenih grčkih žena i od ljudi ne malo.
12 Así que creyeron muchos de ellos; y mujeres Griegas de distinción, y no pocos hombres.
12 Many of them therefore believed; also of the prominent Greek women, and not a few men.
13 A kad razabraše Jevreji solunski da Pavle u Veriji propovedi reč Božju, dođoše i onamo te uzdigoše i pobuniše narod.
13 Mas como entendieron los Judíos de Tesalónica que también en Berea era anunciada la palabra de Dios por Pablo, fueron, y también allí tumultuaron al pueblo.
13 But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Beroea also, they came there likewise, agitating the multitudes.
14 A braća onda odmah otpraviše Pavla da ide u primorje; a Sila i Timotije ostaše onde.
14 Empero luego los hermanos enviaron á Pablo que fuese como á la mar; y Silas y Timoteo se quedaron allí.
14 Then the brothers immediately sent out Paul to go as far as to the sea, and Silas and Timothy still stayed there.
15 A pratioci dovedoše Pavla do Atine: i primivši zapovest na Silu i Timotija da dođu k njemu što brže, vratiše se.
15 Y los que habían tomado á cargo á Pablo, le llevaron hasta Atenas; y tomando encargo para Silas y Timoteo, que viniesen á él lo más presto que pudiesen, partieron.
15 But those who escorted Paul brought him as far as Athens. Receiving a commandment to Silas and Timothy that they should come to him very quickly, they departed.
16 A kad ih Pavle čekaše u Atini, razdraži se duh njegov u njemu gledajući grad pun idola;
16 Y esperándolos Pablo en Atenas, su espíritu se deshacía en él viendo la ciudad dada á idolatría.
16 Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw the city full of idols.
17 i prepiraše se s Jevrejima i bogobojaznima u zbornici, i na pazaru svaki dan s onima s kojima se udešavaše.
17 Así que, disputaba en la sinagoga con los Judíos y religiosos; y en la plaza cada día con los que le ocurrían.
17 So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout persons, and in the marketplace every day with those who met him.
18 A neki od Epikurovaca i od stojičkih mudraca prepirahu se s njim; i jedni govorahu: Šta hoće ovaj besposlica? A drugi: Vidi se kao da hoće nove bogove da propoveda. Jer im propovedaše jevanđelje o Isusu i o vaskrsenju.
18 Y algunos filósofos de los Epicúreos y de los Estóicos, disputaban con él; y unos decían: ¿Qué quiere decir este palabrero? Y otros: Parece que es predicador de nuevos dioses: porque les predicaba á Jesús y la resurrección.
18 Some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also were conversing with him. Some said, “What does this babbler want to say?” Others said, “He seems to be advocating foreign deities,” because he preached Jesus and the resurrection.
19 Pa ga uzeše i odvedoše na Areopag govoreći: Možemo li razumeti kakva je ta nova nauka što ti kazuješ?
19 Y tomándole, le trajeron al Areópago, diciendo: ¿Podremos saber qué sea esta nueva doctrina que dices?
19 They took hold of him and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, “May we know what this new teaching is, which you are speaking about?
20 Jer nešto novo mećeš u naše uši; hoćemo dakle da vidimo šta će to biti.
20 Porque pones en nuestros oídos unas nuevas cosas: queremos pues saber qué quiere ser esto.
20 For you bring certain strange things to our ears. We want to know therefore what these things mean.”
21 A Atinjani svi i putnici iz drugih zemalja ne behu nizašta drugo nego da šta novo kazuju ili slušaju.
21 (Entonces todos los Atenienses y los huéspedes extranjeros, en ninguna otra cosa entendían, sino ó en decir ó en oir alguna cosa nueva.)
21 Now all the Athenians and the strangers living there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing.
22 A Pavle stavši nasred Areopaga reče: Ljudi Atinjani! Po svemu vas vidim da ste vrlo pobožni;
22 Estando pues Pablo en medio del Areópago, dijo: Varones Atenienses, en todo os veo como más supersticiosos;
22 Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus and said, “You men of Athens, I perceive that you are very religious in all things.
23 jer prolazeći i motreći vaše svetinje nađoh oltar na kome beše napisano: Bogu nepoznatom. Kog dakle ne znajući poštujete Onog vam ja propovedam.
23 Porque pasando y mirando vuestros santuarios, hallé también un altar en el cual estaba esta inscripción: AL DIOS NO CONOCIDO. Aquél pues, que vosotros honráis sin conocerle, á éste os anuncio yo.
23 For as I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I also found an altar with this inscription: ‘TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.’ What therefore you worship in ignorance, I announce to you.
24 Bog koji je stvorio svet i sve što je u njemu, On budući Gospodar neba i zemlje, ne živi u rukotvorenim crkvama,
24 El Dios que hizo el mundo y todas las cosas que en él hay, éste, como sea Señor del cielo y de la tierra, no habita en templos hechos de manos,
24 The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands.
25 niti prima ugađanja od ruku čovečijih, kao da bi Onome trebalo šta koji sam daje svima život i dihanje i sve.
25 Ni es honrado con manos de hombres, necesitado de algo; pues él da á todos vida, y respiración, y todas las cosas;
25 He isn’t served by men’s hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life and breath and all things.
26 I učinio je da od jedne krvi sav rod čovečiji živi po svemu licu zemaljskom, i postavio je unapred određena vremena i međe njihovog življenja:
26 Y de una sangre ha hecho todo el linaje de los hombres, para que habitasen sobre toda la faz de la tierra; y [les] ha prefijado el orden de los tiempos, y los términos de la habitación de ellos;
26 He made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the surface of the earth, having determined appointed seasons and the boundaries of their dwellings,
27 Da traže Gospoda, ne bi li Ga barem opipali i našli, premda nije daleko ni od jednog nas.
27 Para que buscasen á Dios, si en alguna manera, palpando, le hallen; aunque cierto no está lejos de cada uno de nosotros:
27 that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.
28 Jer kroz Njega živimo, i mičemo se, i jesmo; kao što i neki od vaših pevača rekoše: Jer smo i rod Njegov.
28 Porque en él vivimos, y nos movemos, y somos; como también algunos de vuestros poetas dijeron: Porque linaje de éste somos también.
28 ‘For in him we live, move, and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also his offspring.’
29 Kad smo dakle rod Božji, ne treba da mislimo da je Božanstvo kao ikone zlatne ili srebrne ili kamene, koje su ljudi majstorski načinili po smišljanju svom.
29 Siendo pues linaje de Dios, no hemos de estimar la Divinidad ser semejante á oro, ó á plata, ó á piedra, escultura de artificio ó de imaginación de hombres.
29 Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, engraved by art and design of man.
30 Ne gledajući dakle Bog na vremena neznanja, sad zapoveda svima ljudima svuda da se pokaju;
30 Empero Dios, habiendo disimulado los tiempos de esta ignorancia, ahora denuncia á todos los hombres en todos los lugares que se arrepientan:
30 The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked. But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent,
31 jer je postavio dan u koji će suditi vasionom svetu po pravdi preko čoveka koga odredi, i dade svima veru vaskrsnuvši Ga iz mrtvih.
31 Por cuanto ha establecido un día, en el cual ha de juzgar al mundo con justicia, por aquel varón al cual determinó; dando fe á todos con haberle levantado de los muertos.
31 because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.”
32 A kad čuše vaskrsenje iz mrtvih, onda se jedni rugahu; a jedni rekoše: Da te čujemo opet o tom.
32 Y así como oyeron de la resurrección de los muertos, unos se burlaban, y otros decían: Te oiremos acerca de esto otra vez.
32 Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, “We want to hear you again concerning this.”
33 Tako Pavle otide između njih.
33 Y así Pablo se salió de en medio de ellos.
33 Thus Paul went out from among them.
34 A neki ljudi pristaše uza nj i verovaše; među kojima beše i Dionisije Areopagitski, i žena po imenu Damara, i drugi s njima.
34 Mas algunos creyeron, juntándose con él; entre los cuales también fué Dionisio el del Areópago, y una mujer llamada Dámaris, y otros con ellos.
34 But certain men joined with him and believed, including Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Again they haste past the small cities, and press on to the greater ones, since from those the word was to flow as from a fountain into the neighboring cities. "And Paul, as his manner was, went into the synagogue of the Jews." Although he had said, "We turn to the Gentiles" (ch. xiii.

For "They," it is said, "that have turned the world upside down, are come hither also;" and again, "They preach things contrary to the decrees of Cæsar, saying that Jesus Christ is king."
