2 Peter 1
1 Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and [the] Saviour Jesus Christ:
Šimun Petar, sluga i apostol Isusa Krista, onima koje pravednošću Boga našega i Spasitelja Isusa Krista zapade ista dragocjena vjera kao i nas.
2 Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord;
Punina vam milosti i mira po spoznaji Boga i Isusa, Gospodina našega!
3 seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue;
Doista, po spoznaji njega, koji nas pozva slavom svojom i krepošću, božanska nas je snaga njegova obdarila svime za život i pobožnost.
4 whereby he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises; that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.
Time smo obdareni dragocjenim, najvećim obećanjima da po njima postanete zajedničari božanske naravi umakavši pokvarenosti koja je u svijetu zbog požude.
5 Yea, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply virtue; and in [your] virtue knowledge;
Zbog toga svim marom prionite: vjerom osigurajte krepost, krepošću spoznaje,
6 and in [your] knowledge self-control; and in [your] self-control patience; and in [your] patience godliness;
spoznanjem uzdržljivost, uzdržljivošću postojanost, postojanošću pobožnost,
7 and in [your] godliness brotherly kindness; and in [your] brotherly kindness love.
pobožnošću bratoljublje, bratoljubljem ljubav.
8 For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful unto the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jer ako to imate i u tom napredujete, nećete biti besposleni i neplodni za spoznanje Isusa Krista.
9 For he that lacketh these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
A tko toga nema, slijep je, kratkovidan; zaboravio je da je očišćen od svojih prijašnjih grijeha.
10 Wherefore, brethren, give the more diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never stumble:
Zato, braćo, to revnije uznastojte učvrstiti svoj poziv i izabranje: to čineći - ne, nećete posrnuti nikada!
11 for thus shall be richly supplied unto you the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
Tako će vam se bogato osigurati ulazak u vječno kraljevstvo Gospodina našega i Spasitelja Isusa Krista. (aiōnios g166)
12 Wherefore I shall be ready always to put you in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and are established in the truth which is with [you].
Zato ću vas uvijek na to podsjećati premda to znate i utvrđeni ste u primljenoj istini.
13 And I think it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;
Pravo je, mislim, da vas dok sam u ovom šatoru, budim opomenom,
14 knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle cometh swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ signified unto me.
svjestan da ću brzo napustiti svoj šator, kako mi i Gospodin naš Isus Krist očitova.
15 Yea, I will give diligence that at every time ye may be able after my decease to call these things to remembrance.
A pobrinut ću se da se i nakon mojeg izlaska uvijek toga sjećate.
16 For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
Ta nismo vam navijestili snagu i Dolazak Gospodina našega Isusa Krista slijedeći izmudrene priče, nego kao očevici njegova veličanstva.
17 For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there was borne such a voice to him by the Majestic Glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased:
Od Oca je doista primio čast i slavu kad mu ono od uzvišene Slave doprije ovaj glas: Ovo je Sin moj, Ljubljeni moj, u njemu mi sva milina!
18 and this voice we [ourselves] heard borne out of heaven, when we were with him in the holy mount.
Taj glas, koji s neba dopiraše, čusmo mi koji bijasmo s njime na Svetoj gori.
19 And we have the word of prophecy [made] more sure; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts:
Tako nam je potvrđena proročka riječ te dobro činite što uza nju prianjate kao uza svjetiljku što svijetli na mrklu mjestu - dok Dan ne osvane i Danica se ne pomoli u srcima vašim.
20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of scripture is of private interpretation.
Ponajprije znajte ovo: nijedno se proroštvo Pisma ne može tumačiti samovoljno
21 For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but men spake from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
jer nikada proroštvo ne bi ljudskom voljom doneseno, nego su Duhom Svetim poneseni ljudi od Boga govorili.
