Explanation:
Second sentence:
Prevedite ga ili razgovarajte sa nekim ko ga razumije.

For some reason I couldn't put everything in the space above. Anyway, the difference between my translation and the first one on the list is very small. It's in the special fonts, in the word "vašoj" (your), I would not put the capitol V, because it seems to be addressed to the group of people. The"it" at the end, I believe signifies the report, and that is why I would use "ga" insted of "to". It's a subtle difference, but that's the way I would translate it.

disagree  Chicago-Bosnian: good translation, copy of the first proposed answer....with difference in "vi" and "Vi", however "Vi" is reflecting formal language as well as PLURAL.

Explanation:
Just a little explanation of the suggested translation:
“vi” is plural, “Vi” is formal. “Vi” with capitol “V” never reflects plural, that is actually the way to differentiate “vi” and “Vi”. Therefore, “vi” indicates plural and “Vi” is used for addressing someone formally, and/or out of respect - indicates singular.
For example:
Dragi gospodine Terziću, Vi ćete nam uvijek biti drag gost.
or
Učenicima III-eg B razreda : vi ste svi savladali neohodno gradivo predviđeno planom i programom.


And that is the reason why I suggested the change in the first translation. In this particular case it's not a big deal, and it could be translated both ways, but in some other cases it might be very important.
