Skutky Apoštolů 14
1 I stalo se v Ikonii, že vešli spolu do školy Židovské, a mluvili slovo Boží, takže jest uvěřilo i Židů i Řeků veliké množství.
At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish meeting place and spoke very convincingly [about the Lord Jesus]. As a result, many Jews and also non-Jews believed [in Jesus].
2 Ale kteříž z Židů nepovolní byli, ti zbouřili a zdráždili mysli pohanů proti bratřím.
But [some of] the Jews refused to believe [that message, and] told the non-Jews not to believe it. They told the non-Jewish people that the message [about Jesus] was not true. As a result, [some of] the non-Jews became angry towards the believers [there].
3 I byli tu za dlouhý čas, směle a svobodně mluvíce v Pánu, kterýž svědectví vydával slovu milosti své, a působil to, aby se dáli divové a zázrakové skrze ruce jejich.
So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there speaking boldly for the Lord, and the Lord Jesus enabled them to do many miracles. In this way he showed [people] that the message about how the Lord saves us in a way that we do not deserve is true.
4 I rozdělilo se množství města, a jedni byli s Židy, a jiní s apoštoly.
The people [who lived] in [Iconium] city strongly disagreed with each other [concerning the message about Jesus]. Some of them agreed with the Jews [SYN] [who did not believe that message]. Others agreed with Paul and Barnabas.
5 A když se obořili na apoštoly i pohané i Židé s knížaty svými, aby je utiskli a kamenovali,
Then the non-Jewish people and the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] [who opposed those two] talked among themselves about how they could mistreat them. Some of the important men in that city agreed to help them. Together, they decided that they would [kill Paul and Barnabas by] throwing stones at them.
6 Oni srozuměvše tomu, utekli do měst Lykaonitských, do Lystry a do Derben, a do toho okolí,
But Paul and Barnabas heard about that, so they quickly went away to Lycaonia [district. They went] to Lystra and Derbe [cities in that district] and to the area surrounding [those cities].
7 A tu kázali evangelium.
[While they were] in that area, they continually told people the message [about the Lord Jesus].
8 Muž pak nějaký v Lystře, nemocný na nohy, sedával, chromý jsa hned z života matky své, kterýž nikdy nechodil.
[Once while Paul was preaching to people] in Lystra, a man was sitting there who was crippled in his legs. When [his mother] bore him he had crippled legs, so he was never able to walk.
9 Ten poslouchal Pavla mluvícího. Kterýžto pohleděv naň, a vida, an věří, že uzdraven bude,
He listened as Paul was speaking [about the Lord Jesus]. Paul looked directly at him and could see [in the man’s face] that he believed that [the Lord Jesus] could make him well.
10 Řekl velikým hlasem: Postav se přímě na nohách svých. I zchopil se a chodil.
So Paul called out [to him], “Stand up!” [When the man heard that], he [immediately] jumped up and began to walk [normally].
11 Zástupové pak viděvše, co učinil Pavel, pozdvihli hlasu svého, Lykaonitsky řkouce: Bohové připodobnivše se lidem, sstoupili k nám.
When the crowd saw what Paul had done, [they thought that Paul and Barnabas] [were/must be]) [the gods that they worshipped]. So they shouted [excitedly] in their [own] Lycaonia language, “[Look! These people are] the gods [that we(inc) worship! They] made themselves look like people and have come down [from the sky/heaven to help us]!”
12 I nazvali Barnabáše Jupiterem a Pavla Merkuriášem; nebo on mluvil slovo Boží.
They began to say that Barnabas was [probably the chief god, whose name was]. And [they began to say that] Paul was Hermes, [the messenger/spokesman for the other gods. They mistakenly thought that] because Paul was the one who had been speaking.
13 Tedy kněz Jupitera, modly té, kteráž byla před městem jejich, přivedl býky a přinesl věnce před bránu, a chtěl s lidem oběti obětovati.
Just outside [the gates of] the city there was a temple [where the people worshipped Zeus. The priest who was there heard what Paul and Barnabas had done, so he came] to the city gate, where many people had already gathered. He brought [two] bulls with wreaths [of flowers around their necks]. The priest and the other people wanted to kill the bulls [as part of a ceremony] to worship Paul and Barnabas.
14 To když uslyšeli apoštolé, Barnabáš a Pavel, roztrhše sukně své, vyběhli k zástupům, křičíce,
But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard about that, [and understood that the people thought that they were gods and wanted to sacrifice the bulls to worship them], they [were very distressed], so they tore their own clothes. They rushed among the people, shouting,
15 A řkouce: Muži, což to činíte? Však i my lidé jsme, týmž bídám jako i vy poddaní, kteříž vás napomínáme, abyste se obrátili od těchto marností k Bohu živému, kterýž učinil nebe i zemi, i moře, i všecko, což v nich jest.
“Men, (you must not kill those bulls [to worship us(dl)!]/why are you doing this?) [RHQ] [We are not gods]! We are just human beings like you! We have come to tell you some good news! [We have come to tell you about] God who is all-powerful. He wants you to stop worshipping other gods, because they cannot help you. This true God made the heaven/sky and the earth and the oceans and everything in it.
16 Kterýžto za předešlých věků všech pohanů nechával, aby chodili po cestách svých,
In the past, all of you non-Jewish people [worshipped whatever gods that you wanted to]. God let you worship them, [because you did not know him].
17 Ačkoli proto nenechal sebe bez osvědčení, dobře čině, dávaje nám s nebe déšť a časy úrodné, naplňuje pokrmem a potěšením srdce naše.
But he has shown us [LIT] [that] he acts kindly [toward us(inc)]. He is the one who causes it to rain and causes crops to grow. He is the one who gives you plenty of food, and makes you very happy.”
18 A to mluvíce, sotva spokojili zástupy, aby jim neobětovali.
The people heard what [Paul] said, but they still thought that they should sacrifice those bulls to worship Paul and Barnabas. [But finally, the people decided not to do it].
19 A vtom přišli od Antiochie a Ikonie nějací Židé, kteřížto navedše zástupy, a ukamenovavše Pavla, vytáhli jej před město, domnívajíce se, že umřel.
[However], after that, some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and persuaded many of the people of Lystra [that the message Paul had been telling them] was not true. The people [who believed what those Jews said became angry with Paul. They let the Jews] throw stones at him [until he fell down, unconscious]. They [all] thought that he was dead, so they dragged him outside the city [and left him lying there]. But some of the believers [in Lystra had followed them outside the city].
20 A když jej obstoupili učedlníci, vstal a všel do města, a nazejtří odšel s Barnabášem do Derben.
They came and stood around Paul, [where he was lying on the ground]. And Paul [became conscious! He] stood up and went back into the city [with the believers]. Acts 14:20b-23 The next day, Paul and Barnabas [left Lystra and] traveled to Derbe.
21 A kázavše evangelium městu tomu, a učedlníků mnoho získavše, navrátili se do Lystry a do Ikonie a do Antiochie,
They [stayed there several days and they kept telling] the people the good message [about Jesus]. Many people became believers. After that, Paul and Barnabas [started on their way back. They] went again to Lystra. [Then they went from there] to Iconium, and [then they went] to Antioch [in Pisidia province].
22 Potvrzujíce duší učedlníků, a napomínajíce jich, aby trvali u víře, a pravíce, že musíme skrze mnohá soužení vjíti do království Božího.
[In each city], they helped the believers [SYN] to become strong [spiritually], and they urged them to keep on trusting in [the Lord Jesus]. They told [the believers], “It is necessary that [we endure] people often persecuting us [(inc)] before we enter the place where God will rule [over us forever].”
23 A zřídivše jim, podle daných hlasů, starší po církvech, a modlivše se s postem, poručili je Pánu, v kteréhož jsou uvěřili.
Paul and Barnabas appointed leaders for each congregation. [And before Paul and Barnabas left each town, they gathered the believers together and spent some time] praying and (fasting/not eating any food). Then Paul and Barnabas entrusted the [leaders and other believers] to the Lord [Jesus], in whom they had believed, [in order that he would care for them].
24 A prošedše Pisidii, přišli do Pamfylie,
After Paul and Barnabas had traveled through Pisidia [district], they went [south] to Pamphylia [district].
25 A mluvivše slovo Boží v Pergen, šli do města Attalie.
[In that district], they [arrived] at Perga and preached God’s message [about the Lord Jesus to the people there. Then] they went down [to the seacoast] at Attalia.
26 A odtud plavili se do Antiochie, odkudž poručeni byli milosti Boží k dílu, kteréž jsou vykonali.
There they got on a ship and went back to Antioch [in Syria province]. That was the place where Paul and Barnabas had been appointed {where [believers] had sent Paul and Barnabas} to go [to other places] and preach. [Antioch was the place where the believers] had asked God to kindly help Paul and Barnabas in the work that they had now completed.
27 A když tam přišli a shromáždili církev, vypravovali jim, kteraké věci Bůh skrze ně učinil a že otevřel pohanům dveře víry.
When they arrived in Antioch, they called the believers together. Then Paul and Barnabas told them all that God had helped them to do. [Specifically, they told them how God] had enabled [IDM] [many] non-Jewish people to believe [in Jesus].
28 I byli tu za dlouhý čas s učedlníky.
Then Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch with the [other] believers for several months.
