WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 I onaj dan izišavši Isus iz kuće seđaše kraj mora.
1 On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the seaside.
2 I sabraše se oko Njega ljudi mnogi, tako da mora ući u lađu i sesti; a narod sav stajaše po bregu.
2 Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat and sat; and all the multitude stood on the beach.
3 I On im kaziva mnogo u pričama govoreći: Gle, iziđe sejač da seje.
3 He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow.
4 I kad sejaše, jedna zrna padoše kraj puta, i dođoše ptice i pozobaše ih;
4 As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
5 a druga padoše na kamenita mesta, gde ne beše mnogo zemlje, i odmah iznikoše; jer ne beše u dubinu zemlje.
5 Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn’t have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.
6 I kad obasja sunce, povenuše, i budući da nemahu žila, posahnuše.
6 When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.
7 A druga padoše u trnje, i naraste trnje, i podavi ih.
7 Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.
8 A druga padoše na zemlju dobru, i donošahu rod, jedno po sto, a jedno po šezdeset, a jedno po trideset.
8 Others fell on good soil and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
9 Ko ima uši da čuje neka čuje.
9 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
10 I pristupivši učenici rekoše Mu: Zašto im govoriš u pričama?
10 The disciples came, and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”
11 A On odgovarajući reče im: Vama je dano da znate tajne carstva nebeskog, a njima nije dano.
11 He answered them, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.
12 Jer ko ima, daće mu se, i preteći će mu; a koji nema, uzeće mu se i ono što ima.
12 For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.
13 Zato im govorim u pričama, jer gledajući ne vide, i čujući ne čuju niti razumeju.
13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they don’t see, and hearing, they don’t hear, neither do they understand.
14 I zbiva se na njima proroštvo Isaijino, koje govori: Ušima ćete čuti, i nećete razumeti; i očima ćete gledati, i nećete videti.
14 In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, ‘By hearing you will hear, and will in no way understand; Seeing you will see, and will in no way perceive;
15 Jer je odrvenilo srce ovih ljudi, i ušima teško čuju, i oči su svoje zatvorili da kako ne vide očima, i ušima ne čuju, i srcem ne razumeju, i ne obrate se da ih iscelim.
15 for this people’s heart has grown callous, their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes; or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.’
16 A blago vašim očima što vide, i ušima vašim što čuju.
16 “But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
17 Jer vam kažem zaista da su mnogi proroci i pravednici želeli videti šta vi vidite, i ne videše; i čuti šta vi čujete, i ne čuše.
17 For most certainly I tell you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.
18 Vi pak čujte priču o sejaču:
18 “Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.
19 Svakome koji sluša reč o carstvu i ne razume, dolazi nečastivi i krade posejano u srcu njegovom: to je oko puta posejano.
19 When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom and doesn’t understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
20 A na kamenu posejano to je koji sluša reč i odmah s radosti primi je,
20 What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word and immediately with joy receives it;
21 ali nema korena u sebi, nego je nepostojan, pa kad bude do nevolje ili ga poteraju reči radi, odmah udari natrag.
21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
22 A posejano u trnju to je koji sluša reč, no briga ovog sveta i prevara bogatstva zaguše reč, i bez roda ostane.
22 What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
23 A posejano na dobroj zemlji to je koji sluša reč i razume, koji dakle i rod rađa, i donosi jedan po sto, a jedan po šezdeset, a jedan po trideset.
23 What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit and produces, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.”
24 Drugu priču kaza im govoreći: Carstvo je nebesko kao čovek koji poseja dobro seme u polju svom,
24 He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,
25 a kad ljudi pospaše, dođe njegov neprijatelj i poseja kukolj po pšenici, pa otide.
25 but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel weeds also among the wheat, and went away.
26 A kad niče usev i rod donese, onda se pokaza kukolj.
26 But when the blade sprang up and produced grain, then the darnel weeds appeared also.
27 Tada dođoše sluge domaćinove i rekoše mu: Gospodaru! Nisi li ti dobro seme sejao na svojoj njivi? Otkuda dakle kukolj?
27 The servants of the householder came and said to him, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where did these darnel weeds come from?’
28 A on reče im: Neprijatelj čovek to učini. A sluge rekoše mu: Hoćeš li dakle da idemo da ga počupamo?
28 “He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ “The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and gather them up?’
29 A on reče: Ne; da ne bi čupajući kukolj počupali zajedno s njime pšenicu.
29 “But he said, ‘No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel weeds, you root up the wheat with them.
30 Ostavite neka raste oboje zajedno do žetve; i u vreme žetve reći ću žeteocima: Saberite najpre kukolj, i svežite ga u snoplje da ga sažežem; a pšenicu svezite u žitnicu moju.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First, gather up the darnel weeds, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”
31 Drugu priču kaza im govoreći: Carstvo je nebesko kao zrno gorušičino koje uzme čovek i poseje na njivi svojoj,
31 He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took, and sowed in his field,
32 koje je istina najmanje od sviju semena, ali kad uzraste, veće je od svega povrća, i bude drvo da ptice nebeske dolaze, i sedaju na njegovim granama.
32 which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.”
33 Drugu priču kaza im: Carstvo je nebesko kao kvasac koji uzme žena i metne u tri kopanje brašna dok sve ne uskisne.
33 He spoke another parable to them. “The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until it was all leavened.”
34 Sve ovo u pričama govori Isus ljudima, i bez priče ništa ne govoraše im:
34 Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn’t speak to them,
35 Da se zbude šta je kazao prorok govoreći: Otvoriću u pričama usta svoja, kazaću sakriveno od postanja sveta.
35 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.”
36 Tada ostavi Isus ljude, i dođe u kuću. I pristupiše k Njemu učenici Njegovi govoreći: Kaži nam priču o kukolju na njivi.
36 Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field.”
37 A On odgovarajući reče im: Koji seje dobro seme ono je Sin čovečiji;
37 He answered them, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
38 a njiva je svet; a dobro seme sinovi su carstva, a kukolj sinovi su zla;
38 the field is the world, the good seeds are the children of the Kingdom, and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one.
39 a neprijatelj koji ga je posejao jeste đavo; a žetva je posledak ovog veka; a žeteoci su anđeli.
39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.
40 Kao što se dakle kukolj sabira, i ognjem sažiže, tako će biti na kraju ovog veka.
40 As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of this age.
41 Poslaće Sin čovečiji anđele svoje, i sabraće iz carstva Njegovog sve sablazni i koji čine bezakonje.
41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling and those who do iniquity,
42 I baciće ih u peć ognjenu: onde će biti plač i škrgut zuba.
42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43 Tada će se pravednici zasjati kao sunce u carstvu Oca svog. Ko ima uši da čuje neka čuje.
43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
44 Još je carstvo nebesko kao blago sakriveno u polju, koje našavši čovek sakri i od radosti zato otide i sve što ima prodade i kupi polje ono.
44 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
45 Još je carstvo nebesko kao čovek trgovac koji traži dobar biser,
45 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
46 pa kad nađe jedno mnogoceno zrno bisera, otide i prodade sve što imaše i kupi ga.
46 who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.
47 Još je carstvo nebesko kao mreža koja se baci u more i zagrabi od svake ruke ribe;
47 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some fish of every kind,
48 koja kad se napuni, izvukoše je na kraj, i sedavši, izbraše dobre u sudove, a zle baciše napolje.
48 which, when it was filled, fishermen drew up on the beach. They sat down and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.
49 Tako će biti na posletku veka: izići će anđeli i odlučiće zle od pravednih.
49 So it will be in the end of the world. The angels will come and separate the wicked from among the righteous,
50 I baciće ih u peć ognjenu: onde će biti plač i škrgut zuba.
50 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
51 Reče im Isus: Razumeste li ovo? Rekoše Mu: Da, Gospode.
51 Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?” They answered him, “Yes, Lord.”
52 A On im reče: Zato je svaki književnik koji se naučio carstvu nebeskom kao domaćin koji iznosi iz kleti svoje novo i staro.
52 He said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has been made a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things.”
53 I kad svrši Isus priče ove, otide odande.
53 When Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.
54 I došavši na postojbinu svoju, učaše ih po zbornicama njihovim tako da Mu se divljahu, i govorahu: Otkud ovome premudrost ova i moći?
54 Coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?
55 Nije li ovo drvodeljin sin? Ne zove li se mati njegova Marija, i braća njegova Jakov, i Josija, i Simon, i Juda?
55 Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother called Mary, and his brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
56 I sestre njegove nisu li sve kod nas? Otkud njemu ovo sve?
56 Aren’t all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?”
57 I sablažnjavahu se o Njega. A Isus reče im: Nema proroka bez časti osim na postojbini svojoj i u domu svom.
57 They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country and in his own house.”
58 I ne stvori onde čudesa mnogih za neverstvo njihovo.
58 He didn’t do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

Lo que dijeron los Padres

Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.

Cómo se eligieron

«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo.

  1. Comentario 13:19 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon XXIII)

    Both yesterday and to-day ye have heard the parables of the sower, in the words of our Lord Jesus Christ. Do ye who were present yesterday, recollect to-day.

  2. Comentario 13:10 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XLV)

    We have good cause to admire the disciples, how, longing as they do to learn, they know when they ought to ask. For they do it not before all: and this Matthew shows by saying, "And they came." And, as to this assertion not being conjecture, Mark hath expressed it more distinctly, by saying, that "they came to Him privately." …

    And every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewn down and cast into the fire." And as to those who are not living pursuant to these His teachings, and are Christians only in name, we demand that all such be punished by you.
