Sažetak
The paper presents the terms used by Bartol Kašić in his translation of the Bible into the Štokavian literary standard (1625), as well as the effect of these terms on the reader. Specifically, the paper focuses on the translation of the following Latin terms - hostia, victima, sacrificium, holocaustum, oblatio and munus, which appear in the first ten chapters of Leviticus in St. Jerome's version of the Vulgate. In standard Croatian translation these terms are mostly subsumed under the collective term sacrifice. The original meanings of the Latin terms were explored, as well as those of the Croatian terms used by Bartol Kašić in his translation, bearing in mind both their theological content and the immediate context of the Holy Scripture. The conclusion is that the terms used in the translation are semantically compatible with those in the original text. In his translation Kašić was guided by the immediate context, attempting to express a range of meanings which are mostly subsumed under the term sacrifice in contemporary Croatian translation. These range from a sacrificial animal, a sacrificial gift, or that which is sacrificed to God as a gift, to the act of sacrifice. In his choice of adequate Croatian terms he was guided not simply by theological intent, which was of primary importance to him, but he also opted for a range of synonyms in order to avoid a paucity of expression and render the translation both theologically and linguistically accurate as well as pleasing to the ear.
