Jeremiah 7: 23- 28
7:23 | But on this matter I did instruct them, govoreći: Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people. And walk in the entire way that I have commanded you, so that it may be well with you. |
7:24 | But they did not listen, nor did they incline their ear. Umjesto toga, they walked by their own will and in the depravity of their own wicked heart. I tako, they went backward, and not forward, |
7:25 | from the day when their fathers went forth from the land of Egypt, čak i do danas. And I have sent all my servants, proroke, to you, throughout the day, rising at first light and sending them. |
7:26 | But they have not listened to me, nor have they inclined their ear. Umjesto toga, they have stiffened their neck, and they have behaved worse than their fathers did. |
7:27 | I tako, you will speak to them all these words, but they will not listen to you. And you will call to them, but they will not respond to you. |
7:28 | And you will say to them: This is the nation that has not listened to the voice of the Lord their God, nor accepted discipline. Faith has perished and been taken away from their mouth. |
Luke 11: 14- 23
11:14 | And he was casting out a demon, and the man was mute. But when he had cast out the demon, the mute man spoke, and so the crowds were amazed. |
11:15 | Ali neki od njih su rekli, “To je od Belzebuba, vođa demona, da izgoni demone.” |
11:16 | I drugi, testirajući ga, zahtijevao od njega znak s neba. |
11:17 | Ali kada je opazio njihove misli, rekao im je: “Svako kraljevstvo koje se podijeli samo protiv sebe opustjelo će, i kuća će pasti na kuću. |
11:18 | Pa onda, ako je i sotona podijeljen protiv sebe, kako će stajati njegovo kraljevstvo? Jer vi kažete da sam pomoću Belzebuba izgonio demone. |
11:19 | Ali ako izgonim demone pomoću Belzebuba, po kome ih tvoji sinovi izgone? Stoga, oni će vam biti sudije. |
11:20 | Štaviše, ako sam prstom Božijim izgonio demone, onda vas je sigurno zavladalo kraljevstvo Božije. |
11:21 | Kad mu jak naoružani čovjek čuva ulaz, stvari koje poseduje su u miru. |
11:22 | Ali ako je jači, nadjačavajući ga, ga je pobedio, oduzet će mu svo oružje, u koje je verovao, i on će podijeliti svoj plijen. |
11:23 | Ko god nije sa mnom, je protiv mene. I ko se ne okuplja sa mnom, raspršuje se. |
