PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 I kad iziđoše srećno iz lađe, tada razumeše da se ostrvo zove Melit.
1 When we had escaped, then they learned that the island was called Malta.
1 Καὶ διασωθέντες τότε ἐπέγνωσαν ὅτι Μελίτη ἡ νῆσος καλεῖται.
2 A divljaci činjahu nam ne malu ljubav, jer naložiše oganj i primiše nas sve zbog dažda koji iđaše, i zbog zime.
2 The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire and received us all, because of the present rain and because of the cold.
2 οἱ δὲ βάρβαροι παρεῖχον οὐ τὴν τυχοῦσαν φιλανθρωπίαν ἡμῖν· ἀνάψαντες γὰρ πυρὰν προσελάβοντο πάντας ἡμᾶς διὰ τὸν ὑετὸν τὸν ἐφεστῶτα καὶ διὰ τὸ ψῦχος.
3 A Pavle zgrabivši gomilu granja naloži na oganj, i izišavši zmija od vrućine skoči mu na ruku.
3 But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.
3 συστρέψαντος δὲ τοῦ Παύλου φρυγάνων πλῆθος καὶ ἐπιθέντος ἐπὶ τὴν πυράν, ἔχιδνα ἀπὸ τῆς θέρμης διεξελθοῦσα καθῆψε τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ.
4 I kad videše divljaci zmiju gde visi o ruci njegovoj, govorahu jedan drugom: Jamačno je ovaj čovek krvnik, kog izbavljenog od mora sud Božji ne ostavi da živi.
4 When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live.”
4 ὡς δὲ εἶδον οἱ βάρβαροι κρεμάμενον τὸ θηρίον ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ, ἔλεγον πρὸς ἀλλήλους· πάντως φονεύς ἐστιν ὁ ἄνθρωπος οὗτος, ὃν διασωθέντα ἐκ τῆς θαλάσσης ἡ Δίκη ζῆν οὐκ εἴασεν.
5 A on otresavši zmiju u oganj ne bi mu ništa zlo.
5 However he shook off the creature into the fire, and wasn’t harmed.
5 ὁ μὲν οὖν ἀποτινάξας τὸ θηρίον εἰς τὸ πῦρ ἔπαθεν οὐδὲν κακόν·
6 A oni čekahu da on oteče ili ujedanput da padne mrtav. A kad zadugo čekaše, i videše da mu ništa zlo ne bi, promeniše se, i govorahu da je on bog.
6 But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.
6 οἱ δὲ προσεδόκων αὐτὸν μέλλειν πίμπρασθαι ἢ καταπίπτειν ἄφνω νεκρόν. ἐπὶ πολὺ δὲ αὐτῶν προσδοκώντων καὶ θεωρούντων μηδὲν ἄτοπον εἰς αὐτὸν γινόμενον, μεταβαλλόμενοι ἔλεγον θεὸν αὐτὸν εἶναι.
7 A naokolo oko onog mesta behu sela poglavara od ostrva po imenu Poplija, koji nas primi i ugosti ljubazno tri dana.
7 Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and courteously entertained us for three days.
7 Ἐν δὲ τοῖς περὶ τὸν τόπον ἐκεῖνον ὑπῆρχε χωρία τῷ πρώτῳ τῆς νήσου ὀνόματι Ποπλίῳ, ὃς ἀναδεξάμενος ἡμᾶς τρεῖς ἡμέρας φιλοφρόνως ἐξένισεν.
8 A dogodi se da otac Poplijev ležaše od groznice i od srdobolje, kome ušavši Pavle pomoli se Bogu i metnu ruke svoje na nj i isceli ga.
8 The father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
8 ἐγένετο δὲ τὸν πατέρα τοῦ Ποπλίου πυρετοῖς καὶ δυσεντερίῳ συνεχόμενον κατακεῖσθαι· πρὸς ὃν ὁ Παῦλος εἰσελθὼν καὶ προσευξάμενος καὶ ἐπιθεὶς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῷ ἰάσατο αὐτόν.
9 A kad to bi, dolažahu i drugi koji behu bolesni na ostrvu onom, i isceljivahu se.
9 Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came and were cured.
9 τούτου οὖν γενομένου καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ οἱ ἔχοντες ἀσθενείας ἐν τῇ νήσῳ προσήρχοντο καὶ ἐθεραπεύοντο·
10 I poštovahu nas velikim častima; i kad pođosmo, spremiše nam što je od potrebe.
10 They also honored us with many honors; and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.
10 οἳ καὶ πολλαῖς τιμαῖς ἐτίμησαν ἡμᾶς καὶ ἀναγομένοις ἐπέθεντο τὰ πρὸς τὴν χρείαν.
11 A posle tri meseca odvezosmo se na lađi aleksandrijskoj, koja je bila prezimila na ostrvu, i behu na njoj napisani Dioskuri.
11 After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose figurehead was “The Twin Brothers.”
11 Μετὰ δὲ τρεῖς μῆνας ἀνήχθημεν ἐν πλοίῳ παρακεχειμακότι ἐν τῇ νήσῳ, Ἀλεξανδρίνῳ, παρασήμῳ Διοσκούροις,
12 I doplovivši u Sirakuzu ostasmo onde tri dana.
12 Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
12 καὶ καταχθέντες εἰς Συρακούσας ἐπεμείναμεν ἡμέρας τρεῖς·
13 A odande otplovivši dođosmo u Rigiju; i posle jednog dana kad dunu jug, dođosmo drugi dan u Potiole.
13 From there we circled around and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
13 ὅθεν περιελθόντες κατηντήσαμεν εἰς Ῥήγιον, καὶ μετὰ μίαν ἡμέραν ἐπιγενομένου νότου δευτεραῖοι ἤλθομεν εἰς Ποτιόλους·
14 Onde nađemo braću, i oni nas zamole te ostanemo kod njih sedam dana; i tako pođosmo u Rim.
14 where we found brothers, and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.
14 οὗ εὑρόντες ἀδελφοὺς παρεκλήθημεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς ἐπιμεῖναι ἡμέρας ἑπτά, καὶ οὕτως εἰς τὴν Ῥώμην ἤλθομεν.
15 I odande čuvši braća za nas iziđoše nam na susret sve do Apijeva pazara i tri krčme. I kad ih vide Pavle, dade hvalu Bogu, i oslobodi se.
15 From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.
15 κἀκεῖθεν οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἀκούσαντες τὰ περὶ ἡμῶν ἐξῆλθον εἰς ἀπάντησιν ἡμῖν ἄχρις Ἀππίου φόρου καὶ Τριῶν ταβερνῶν, οὓς ἰδὼν ὁ Παῦλος εὐχαριστήσας τῷ Θεῷ ἔλαβε θάρσος.
16 A kad dođosmo u Rim, kapetan predade sužnje vojvodi. Ali se Pavlu dopusti da živi gde hoće s vojnikom koji ga čuvaše.
16 When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.
16 Ὅτε δὲ ἤλθομεν εἰς Ῥώμην, ὁ ἑκατοντάρχης παρέδωκε τοὺς δεσμίους τῷ στρατοπεδάρχῃ· τῷ δὲ Παύλῳ ἐπετράπη μένειν καθ᾽ ἑαυτὸν σὺν τῷ φυλάσσοντι αὐτὸν στρατιώτῃ.
17 A posle tri dana Pavle sazva starešine jevrejske. I kad se oni skupiše, govoraše im: Ljudi braćo! Ja ništa ne učinih protivno narodu ili običajima otačkim; i Jerusalimljani predaše me kao sužnja u ruke Rimljanima,
17 After three days Paul called together those who were the leaders of the Jews. When they had come together, he said to them, “I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
17 Ἐγένετο δὲ μετὰ ἡμέρας τρεῖς συγκαλέσασθαι τὸν Παῦλον τοὺς ὄντας τῶν Ἰουδαίων πρώτους· συνελθόντων δὲ αὐτῶν ἔλεγε πρὸς αὐτούς· ἄνδρες ἀδελφοί, ἐγὼ οὐδὲν ἐναντίον ποιήσας τῷ λαῷ ἢ τοῖς ἔθεσι τοῖς πατρῴοις δέσμιος ἐξ Ἱεροσολύμων παρεδόθην εἰς τὰς χεῖρας τῶν Ῥωμαίων·
18 koji izvidevši za mene hteše da me puste, jer se ne nađe na meni nijedna smrtna krivica.
18 who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.
18 οἵτινες ἀνακρίναντές με ἐβούλοντο ἀπολῦσαι διὰ τὸ μηδεμίαν αἰτίαν θανάτου ὑπάρχειν ἐν ἐμοί.
19 Ali kad Judejci govorahu nasuprot, natera me nevolja da se ištem pred ćesara, ne kao da bih svoj narod imao šta tužiti.
19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
19 ἀντιλεγόντων δὲ τῶν Ἰουδαίων ἠναγκάσθην ἐπικαλέσασθαι Καίσαρα, οὐχ ὡς τοῦ ἔθνους μου ἔχων τι κατηγορῆσαι.
20 Toga radi uzroka zamolih vas da se vidimo i da se razgovorimo; jer nade radi Izrailjeve okovan sam u ovo gvožđe.
20 For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”
20 διὰ ταύτην οὖν τὴν αἰτίαν παρεκάλεσα ὑμᾶς ἰδεῖν καὶ προσλαλῆσαι· ἕνεκεν γὰρ τῆς ἐλπίδος τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ τὴν ἅλυσιν ταύτην περίκειμαι.
21 A oni mu rekoše: Mi niti primismo pisma za te iz Judeje; niti dođe ko od braće da javi ili da govori šta zlo za tebe.
21 They said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.
21 οἱ δὲ πρὸς αὐτὸν εἶπον· ἡμεῖς οὔτε γράμματα περὶ σοῦ ἐδεξάμεθα ἀπὸ τῆς Ἰουδαίας, οὔτε παραγενόμενός τις τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἀπήγγειλεν ἢ ἐλάλησέ τι περὶ σοῦ πονηρόν.
22 Nego molimo da čujemo od tebe šta misliš; jer nam je poznato za ovu jeres da joj se svuda nasuprot govori.
22 But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.”
22 ἀξιοῦμεν δὲ παρὰ σοῦ ἀκοῦσαι ἃ φρονεῖς· περὶ μὲν γὰρ τῆς αἱρέσεως ταύτης γνωστόν ἐστιν ἡμῖν ὅτι πανταχοῦ ἀντιλέγεται.
23 I odredivši mu dan dođoše k njemu u gostionicu mnogi; kojima kazivaše svedočeći carstvo Božje i uveravajući ih za Isusa iz zakona Mojsijevog i iz proroka od jutra do samog mraka.
23 When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about God’s Kingdom, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning until evening.
23 Ταξάμενοι δὲ αὐτῷ ἡμέραν ἧκον πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν ξενίαν πλείονες, οἷς ἐξετίθετο διαμαρτυρόμενος τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ πείθων τε αὐτοὺς τὰ περὶ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ ἀπό τε τοῦ νόμου Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν ἀπὸ πρωῒ ἕως ἑσπέρας.
24 I jedni verovahu onome što govoraše a jedni ne verovahu.
24 Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.
24 καὶ οἱ μὲν ἐπείθοντο τοῖς λεγομένοις, οἱ δὲ ἠπίστουν.
25 A budući nesložni među sobom, odlažahu kad reče Pavle jednu reč: Dobro kaza Duh Sveti preko proroka Isaije očevima našim
25 When they didn’t agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one message: “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,
25 ἀσύμφωνοι δὲ ὄντες πρὸς ἀλλήλους ἀπελύοντο, εἰπόντος τοῦ Παύλου ῥῆμα ἕν, ὅτι καλῶς τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ Ἅγιον ἐλάλησε διὰ Ἡσαΐου τοῦ προφήτου πρὸς τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν λέγον·
26 Govoreći: Idi k narodu ovome i kaži: Ušima ćete čuti i nećete razumeti; i očima ćete gledati i nećete videti.
26 saying, ‘Go to this people and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.
26 πορεύθητι πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον καὶ εἶπον· ἀκοῇ ἀκούσετε καὶ οὐ μὴ συνῆτε, καὶ βλέποντες βλέψετε καὶ οὐ μὴ ἴδητε·
27 Jer odrveni srce ovog naroda, i ušima teško čuju, i očima svojim zažmuriše da kako ne vide očima, i ušima ne čuju, i da se ne obrate da ih iscelim.
27 For this people’s heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, then I would heal them.’
27 ἐπαχύνθη γὰρ ἡ καρδία τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου, καὶ τοῖς ὠσὶ βαρέως ἤκουσαν, καὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῶν ἐκάμμυσαν, μήποτε ἴδωσι τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς καὶ τοῖς ὠσὶν ἀκούσωσι καὶ τῇ καρδίᾳ συνῶσι καὶ ἐπιστρέψωσι, καὶ ἰάσομαι αὐτούς.
28 Da vam je dakle na znanje da se neznabošcima posla spasenje Božje, oni će i čuti.
28 “Be it known therefore to you that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will listen.”
28 γνωστὸν οὖν ἔστω ὑμῖν ὅτι τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἀπεστάλη [τοῦτο] τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ Θεοῦ, αὐτοὶ καὶ ἀκούσονται.
29 I kad on ovo reče, otidoše Jevreji prepirući se među sobom.
29 When he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.
29 καὶ ταῦτα αὐτοῦ εἰπόντος ἀπῆλθον οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι πολλὴν ἔχοντες ἐν ἑαυτοῖς συζήτησιν.
30 A Pavle ostade pune dve godine o svom trošku, i dočekivaše sve koji mu dolažahu,
30 Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house and received all who were coming to him,
30 Ἔμεινε δὲ ὁ Παῦλος διετίαν ὅλην ἐν ἰδίῳ μισθώματι καὶ ἀπεδέχετο πάντας τοὺς εἰσπορευομένους πρὸς αὐτόν,
31 propovedajući carstvo Božje, i učeći o Gospodu našem Isusu Hristu slobodno, i niko mu ne branjaše.
31 preaching God’s Kingdom and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.
31 κηρύσσων τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ διδάσκων τὰ περὶ τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ μετὰ πάσης παρρησίας ἀκωλύτως.

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).
"Showed," he says, "no little kindness to us--barbarians" (as they were )--"having kindled a fire:" else it were of no use that their lives be saved, if the wintry weather must destroy them. Then Paul having taken brushwood, laid it on the fire.
