PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Dogodi se pak, kad beše Apolos u Korintu, da Pavle prolažaše gornje zemlje, i dođe u Efes, i našavši neke učenike
1 While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper country, came to Ephesus and found certain disciples.
1 Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ τὸν Ἀπολλὼ εἶναι ἐν Κορίνθῳ Παῦλον διελθόντα τὰ ἀνωτερικὰ μέρη ἐλθεῖν εἰς Ἔφεσον· καὶ εὑρὼν μαθητάς τινας
2 reče im: Jeste li primili Duha Svetog kad ste verovali? A oni mu rekoše: Nismo ni čuli da ima Duh Sveti.
2 He said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They said to him, “No, we haven’t even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”
2 εἶπε πρὸς αὐτούς· εἰ Πνεῦμα Ἅγιον ἐλάβετε πιστεύσαντες; οἱ δὲ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτόν· ἀλλ᾽ οὐδὲ εἰ Πνεῦμα Ἅγιόν ἐστιν ἠκούσαμεν.
3 A on im reče: Na šta se dakle krstiste? A oni rekoše: Na krštenje Jovanovo.
3 He said, “Into what then were you baptized?” They said, “Into John’s baptism.”
3 εἶπέ τε πρὸς αὐτούς· εἰς τί οὖν ἐβαπτίσθητε; οἱ δὲ εἶπον· εἰς τὸ Ἰωάννου βάπτισμα.
4 A Pavle reče: Jovan krsti krštenjem pokajanja, govoreći narodu da veruju Onog koji će za njim doći, to jest, Hrista Isusa.
4 Paul said, “John indeed baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe in the one who would come after him, that is, in Christ Jesus.”
4 εἶπε δὲ Παῦλος· Ἰωάννης μὲν ἐβάπτισε βάπτισμα μετανοίας, τῷ λαῷ λέγων εἰς τὸν ἐρχόμενον μετ᾽ αὐτὸν ἵνα πιστεύσωσι, τοῦτ᾽ ἔστιν εἰς τὸν Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν.
5 A kad to čuše, krstiše se u ime Gospoda Isusa.
5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
5 ἀκούσαντες δὲ ἐβαπτίσθησαν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ.
6 A kad Pavle metnu ruke na njih, siđe Duh Sveti na njih, i govoraše jezike i proricahu.
6 When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them and they spoke with other languages and prophesied.
6 καὶ ἐπιθέντος αὐτοῖς τοῦ Παύλου τὰς χεῖρας ἦλθε τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ Ἅγιον ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς, ἐλάλουν τε γλώσσαις καὶ προεφήτευον.
7 A beše ljudi svega oko dvanaest.
7 They were about twelve men in all.
7 ἦσαν δὲ οἱ πάντες ἄνδρες ὡσεὶ δεκαδύο.
8 I ušavši u zbornicu govoraše slobodno tri meseca učeći i uveravajući za carstvo Božje.
8 He entered into the synagogue and spoke boldly for a period of three months, reasoning and persuading about the things concerning God’s Kingdom.
8 Εἰσελθὼν δὲ εἰς τὴν συναγωγὴν ἐπαρρησιάζετο ἐπὶ μῆνας τρεῖς διαλεγόμενος καὶ πείθων τὰ περὶ τῆς βασιλείας τοῦ Θεοῦ.
9 A kad neki behu otvrdnuli i svađahu se huleći na put Gospodnji pred narodom, odstupi od njih i odluči učenike, pa se prepiraše svaki dan u školi nekog Tirana.
9 But when some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.
9 ὡς δέ τινες ἐσκληρύνοντο καὶ ἠπείθουν κακολογοῦντες τὴν ὁδὸν ἐνώπιον τοῦ πλήθους, ἀποστὰς ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν ἀφώρισε τοὺς μαθητάς, καθ᾽ ἡμέραν διαλεγόμενος ἐν τῇ σχολῇ Τυράννου τινός.
10 I ovo je bivalo dve godine, tako da svi koji življahu u Aziji, i Jevreji i Grci, čuše reč Gospoda Isusa.
10 This continued for two years, so that all those who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
10 τοῦτο δὲ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ ἔτη δύο, ὥστε πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν Ἀσίαν ἀκοῦσαι τὸν λόγον τοῦ Κυρίου [Ἰησοῦ], Ἰουδαίους τε καὶ Ἕλληνας.
11 I Bog činjaše ne mala čudesa rukama Pavlovim,
11 God worked special miracles by the hands of Paul,
11 Δυνάμεις τε οὐ τὰς τυχούσας ἐποίει ὁ Θεὸς διὰ τῶν χειρῶν Παύλου,
12 tako da su i čalme i ubruščiće znojave od tela njegovog nosili na bolesnike, i oni se isceljivahu od bolesti, i duhovi zli izlažahu iz njih.
12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out.
12 ὥστε καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀσθενοῦντας ἐπιφέρεσθαι ἀπὸ τοῦ χρωτὸς αὐτοῦ σουδάρια ἢ σιμικίνθια καὶ ἀπαλλάσσεσθαι ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν τὰς νόσους, τά τε πνεύματα τὰ πονηρὰ ἐξέρχεσθαι ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν.
13 I počeše neki od Jevreja, koji se skitahu i zaklinjahu đavole, spominjati nad onima u kojima behu zli duhovi ime Gospoda Isusa govoreći: Zaklinjemo vas Isusom koga Pavle propoveda.
13 But some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, took on themselves to invoke over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, “We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches.”
13 Ἐπεχείρησαν δέ τινες ἀπὸ τῶν περιερχομένων Ἰουδαίων ἐξορκιστῶν ὀνομάζειν ἐπὶ τοὺς ἔχοντας τὰ πνεύματα τὰ πονηρὰ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ λέγοντες· ὁρκίζομεν ὑμᾶς τὸν Ἰησοῦν ὃν ὁ Παῦλος κηρύσσει.
14 A behu nekih sedam sinova Skeve Jevrejina, poglavara svešteničkog, koji ovo činjahu.
14 There were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did this.
14 ἦσαν δέ τινες υἱοὶ Σκευᾶ Ἰουδαίου ἀρχιερέως ἑπτὰ οἱ τοῦτο ποιοῦντες.
15 A duh zli odgovarajući reče: Isusa poznajem, i Pavla znam; ali vi ko ste?
15 The evil spirit answered, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you?”
15 ἀποκριθὲν δὲ τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ πονηρὸν εἶπε· τὸν Ἰησοῦν γινώσκω καὶ τὸν Παῦλον ἐπίσταμαι· ὑμεῖς δὲ τίνες ἐστέ;
16 I skočivši na njih čovek u kome beše zli duh nadvlada ih, i pritište ih poda se tako da goli i izranjeni utekoše iz one kuće.
16 The man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
16 καὶ ἐφαλλόμενος ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς ὁ ἄνθρωπος, ἐν ᾧ ἦν τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ πονηρόν, καὶ κατακυριεύσας αὐτῶν ἴσχυσε κατ᾽ αὐτῶν, ὥστε γυμνοὺς καὶ τετραυματισμένους ἐκφυγεῖν ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου ἐκείνου.
17 I ovo doznaše svi koji življahu u Efesu, i Jevreji, i Grci; i uđe strah u sve njih, i veličaše se ime Gospoda Isusa.
17 This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived at Ephesus. Fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
17 τοῦτο δὲ ἐγένετο γνωστὸν πᾶσιν Ἰουδαίοις τε καὶ Ἕλλησι τοῖς κατοικοῦσι τὴν Ἔφεσον, καὶ ἐπέπεσε φόβος ἐπὶ πάντας αὐτούς, καὶ ἐμεγαλύνετο τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ·
18 I mnogi od onih što verovahu, dolažahu te se ispovedahu i kazivahu šta su učinili.
18 Many also of those who had believed came, confessing and declaring their deeds.
18 πολλοί τε τῶν πεπιστευκότων ἤρχοντο ἐξομολογούμενοι καὶ ἀναγγέλλοντες τὰς πράξεις αὐτῶν.
19 A mnogi od onih koji čarahu, sabravši knjige svoje spaljivahu ih pred svima; i proračunaše i nađoše da su vredele pedeset hiljada groša.
19 Many of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. They counted their price, and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver.
19 ἱκανοὶ δὲ τῶν τὰ περίεργα πραξάντων συνενέγκαντες τὰς βίβλους κατέκαιον ἐνώπιον πάντων· καὶ συνεψήφισαν τὰς τιμὰς αὐτῶν καὶ εὗρον ἀργυρίου μυριάδας πέντε.
20 Tako zdravo rastijaše i nadvlađivaše reč Gospodnja.
20 So the word of the Lord was growing and becoming mighty.
20 Οὕτω κατὰ κράτος ὁ λόγος τοῦ Κυρίου ηὔξανε καὶ ἴσχυεν.
21 I kad se ovo svrši, namisli Pavle da prođe preko Makedonije i Ahaje, i da ide u Jerusalim, i reče: Pošto budem tamo, valja mi i Rim videti.
21 Now after these things had ended, Paul determined in the Spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, “After I have been there, I must also see Rome.”
21 Ὡς δὲ ἐπληρώθη ταῦτα, ἔθετο ὁ Παῦλος ἐν τῷ πνεύματι διελθὼν τὴν Μακεδονίαν καὶ Ἀχαΐαν πορεύεσθαι εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ, εἰπὼν ὅτι μετὰ τὸ γενέσθαι με ἐκεῖ δεῖ με καὶ Ῥώμην ἰδεῖν.
22 I posla u Makedoniju dvojicu od onih koji ga služahu, Timotija i Erasta; a on osta neko vreme u Aziji.
22 Having sent into Macedonia two of those who served him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
22 ἀποστείλας δὲ εἰς τὴν Μακεδονίαν δύο τῶν διακονούντων αὐτῷ, Τιμόθεον καὶ Ἔραστον, αὐτὸς ἐπέσχε χρόνον εἰς τὴν Ἀσίαν.
23 A u ono vreme podiže se ne mala buna puta radi Gospodnjeg,
23 About that time there arose no small disturbance concerning the Way.
23 Ἐγένετο δὲ κατὰ τὸν καιρὸν ἐκεῖνον τάραχος οὐκ ὀλίγος περὶ τῆς ὁδοῦ.
24 jer nekakav zlatar, po imenu Dimitrije, koji građaše Dijani srebrne crkvice i davaše majstorima ne mali posao,
24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the craftsmen,
24 Δημήτριος γάρ τις ὀνόματι, ἀργυροκόπος, ποιῶν ναοὺς ἀργυροῦς Ἀρτέμιδος παρείχετο τοῖς τεχνίταις ἐργασίαν οὐκ ὀλίγην·
25 on skupi ove i drugih ovakvih stvari majstore, i reče: Ljudi! Vi znate da od ovog posla mi imamo dobitak za svoje življenje;
25 whom he gathered together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, “Sirs, you know that by this business we have our wealth.
25 οὓς συναθροίσας καὶ τοὺς περὶ τὰ τοιαῦτα ἐργάτας εἶπεν· ἄνδρες, ἐπίστασθε ὅτι ἐκ ταύτης τῆς ἐργασίας ἡ εὐπορία ἡμῶν ἐστι,
26 i vidite i čujete da ne samo u Efesu nego gotovo po svoj Aziji ovaj Pavle odvrati narod mnogi, govoreći: To nisu bogovi što se rukama čovečijim grade.
26 You see and hear that not at Ephesus alone, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are no gods that are made with hands.
26 καὶ θεωρεῖτε καὶ ἀκούετε ὅτι οὐ μόνον Ἐφέσου, ἀλλὰ σχεδὸν πάσης τῆς Ἀσίας ὁ Παῦλος οὗτος πείσας μετέστησεν ἱκανὸν ὄχλον, λέγων ὅτι οὐκ εἰσὶ θεοὶ οἱ διὰ χειρῶν γινόμενοι.
27 I ne samo što će ova nesreća doći na naš zanat da ne prolazi, nego se neće mariti ni za crkvu velike boginje Dijane, i propašće veličanstvo one koju sva Azija i vasioni svet poštuje.
27 Not only is there danger that this our trade come into disrepute, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted as nothing and her majesty destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships.”
27 οὐ μόνον δὲ τοῦτο κινδυνεύει ἡμῖν τὸ μέρος εἰς ἀπελεγμὸν ἐλθεῖν, ἀλλὰ καὶ τὸ τῆς μεγάλης θεᾶς Ἀρτέμιδος ἱερὸν εἰς οὐθὲν λογισθῆναι, μέλλειν τε καὶ καθαιρεῖσθαι τὴν μεγαλειότητα αὐτῆς, ἣν ὅλη ἡ Ἀσία καὶ ἡ οἰκουμένη σέβεται.
28 A kad oni ovo čuše, napuniše se gneva, i vikahu govoreći: Velika je Dijana Efeska!
28 When they heard this they were filled with anger, and cried out, saying, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”
28 ἀκούσαντες δὲ καὶ γενόμενοι πλήρεις θυμοῦ ἔκραζον λέγοντες· μεγάλη ἡ Ἄρτεμις Ἐφεσίων.
29 I sav se grad napuni bune; i navalivši jednodušno na zborište uhvatiše Gaja i Aristarha iz Makedonije, drugove Pavlove.
29 The whole city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord into the theater, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel.
29 καὶ ἐπλήσθη ἡ πόλις ὅλη τῆς συγχύσεως, ὥρμησάν τε ὁμοθυμαδὸν εἰς τὸ θέατρον συναρπάσαντες Γάϊον καὶ Ἀρίσταρχον Μακεδόνας, συνεκδήμους Παύλου.
30 A kad Pavle htede da ide među narod, ne dadoše mu učenici.
30 When Paul wanted to enter in to the people, the disciples didn’t allow him.
30 τοῦ δὲ Παύλου βουλομένου εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὸν δῆμον οὐκ εἴων αὐτὸν οἱ μαθηταί·
31 A neki i od azijskih poglavara koji mu behu prijatelji, poslaše k njemu savetujući ga da ne izlazi na zborište.
31 Certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent to him and begged him not to venture into the theater.
31 τινὲς δὲ καὶ τῶν Ἀσιαρχῶν, ὄντες αὐτῷ φίλοι, πέμψαντες πρὸς αὐτὸν παρεκάλουν μὴ δοῦναι ἑαυτὸν εἰς τὸ θέατρον.
32 Jedni pak vikahu jedno a drugi drugo; jer beše sabor smućen, i najviše ih ne znahu zašto su se skupili.
32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another, for the assembly was in confusion. Most of them didn’t know why they had come together.
32 ἄλλοι μὲν οὖν ἄλλο τι ἔκραζον· ἦν γὰρ ἡ ἐκκλησία συγκεχυμένη, καὶ οἱ πλείους οὐκ ᾔδεισαν τίνος ἕνεκεν συνεληλύθεισαν.
33 A jedni od naroda izvukoše Aleksandra, kad ga Jevreji izvedoše. A Aleksandar mahnuvši rukom htede da odgovori narodu.
33 They brought Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. Alexander beckoned with his hand, and would have made a defense to the people.
33 ἐκ δὲ τοῦ ὄχλου προεβίβασαν Ἀλέξανδρον, προβαλλόντων αὐτὸν τῶν Ἰουδαίων· ὁ δὲ Ἀλέξανδρος κατασείσας τὴν χεῖρα ἤθελεν ἀπολογεῖσθαι τῷ δήμῳ.
34 A kad ga poznaše da je Jevrejin, povikaše svi u glas, i vikahu oko dva sata: Velika je Dijana Efeska.
34 But when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice for a time of about two hours cried out, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”
34 ἐπιγνόντες δὲ ὅτι Ἰουδαῖός ἐστι, φωνὴ ἐγένετο μία ἐκ πάντων, ὡς ἐπὶ ὥρας δύο κραζόντων· μεγάλη ἡ Ἄρτεμις Ἐφεσίων.
35 A pisar utišavši narod reče: Ljudi Efesci! Ko je taj čovek koji ne zna da grad Efes slavi veliku boginju Dijanu i njen kip nebeski?
35 When the town clerk had quieted the multitude, he said, “You men of Ephesus, what man is there who doesn’t know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great goddess Artemis, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?
35 καταστείλας δὲ ὁ γραμματεὺς τὸν ὄχλον φησίν· ἄνδρες Ἐφέσιοι, τίς γάρ ἐστιν ἄνθρωπος ὃς οὐ γινώσκει τὴν Ἐφεσίων πόλιν νεωκόρον οὖσαν τῆς μεγάλης θεᾶς Ἀρτέμιδος καὶ τοῦ Διοπετοῦς;
36 Kad dakle to ne može niko odreći, valja vi da budete mirni, i ništa naglo da ne činite;
36 Seeing then that these things can’t be denied, you ought to be quiet and to do nothing rash.
36 ἀναντιρρήτων οὖν ὄντων τούτων δέον ἐστὶν ὑμᾶς κατεσταλμένους ὑπάρχειν καὶ μηδὲν προπετὲς πράσσειν.
37 jer dovedoste ove ljude koji niti su crkvu Dijaninu pokrali, niti hule na vašu boginju.
37 For you have brought these men here, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess.
37 ἠγάγετε γὰρ τοὺς ἄνδρας τούτους οὔτε ἱεροσύλους οὔτε βλασφημοῦντας τὴν θεὰν ὑμῶν.
38 A Dimitrije i majstori koji su s njim ako imaju kakvu tužbu, imaju sudovi, i imaju namesnici, neka tuže jedan drugog.
38 If therefore Demetrius and the craftsmen who are with him have a matter against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. Let them press charges against one another.
38 εἰ μὲν οὖν Δημήτριος καὶ οἱ σὺν αὐτῷ τεχνῖται ἔχουσι πρός τινα λόγον, ἀγοραῖοι ἄγονται καὶ ἀνθύπατοί εἰσιν, ἐγκαλείτωσαν ἀλλήλοις.
39 Ako li šta drugo ištete, neka se izvidi na pravoj skupštini.
39 But if you seek anything about other matters, it will be settled in the regular assembly.
39 εἰ δέ τι περὶ ἑτέρων ἐπιζητεῖτε, ἐν τῇ ἐννόμῳ ἐκκλησίᾳ ἐπιλυθήσεται.
40 Jer se bojimo da ne budemo tuženi za današnju bunu; a nijednog uzroka nema kojim bismo se mogli opravdati za ovu bunu.
40 For indeed we are in danger of being accused concerning today’s riot, there being no cause. Concerning it, we wouldn’t be able to give an account of this commotion.”
40 καὶ γὰρ κινδυνεύομεν ἐγκαλεῖσθαι στάσεως περὶ τῆς σήμερον, μηδενὸς αἰτίου ὑπάρχοντος περὶ οὗ δυνησόμεθα ἀποδοῦναι λόγον τῆς συστροφῆς ταύτης.
41 I ovo rekavši raspusti narod koji se beše sabrao.
41 When he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
41 καὶ ταῦτα εἰπὼν ἀπέλυσε τὴν ἐκκλησίαν.

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).

(c) He wished to separate the disciples thence, and to have the beginning for ceasing to assemble with them, given by (the Jews) themselves.
