Acts 11
1 The apostles and brothers throughout Judea soon heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.
Apostoli in bratje, ki so bili v Judeji, pa so slišali, da so tudi pogani sprejeli Božjo besedo.
2 So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcised believers took issue with him
In ko je Peter prišel gor v Jeruzalem, so se tisti, ki so bili iz obreze, pričkali z njim,
3 and said, “You visited uncircumcised men and ate with them.”
rekoč: »Odšel si k neobrezanim ljudem in jedel z njimi.«
4 But Peter began and explained to them the whole sequence of events:
Toda Peter jim je zadevo ponovil od začetka in jim jo po vrsti pojasnil, rekoč:
5 “I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision of something like a large sheet being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it came right down to me.
»Bil sem v mestu Jopa in molil in v zamaknjenju sem videl videnje: ›Neka posoda se je spuščala, kot bi bil to velik prt, s štirimi vogali spuščan dol iz neba in ta je prišel celó do mene.
6 I looked at it closely and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the air.
Na katerem sem, ko sem [vanj] uprl svoje oči, opazoval in zagledal štirinožne zemeljske živali in divje zveri in plazeče stvari ter perjad neba.
7 Then I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Get up, Peter, kill and eat.’
In zaslišal sem glas, ki mi je rekel: ›Vstani, Peter, zakolji in jej.‹‹
8 ‘No, Lord,’ I said, ‘for nothing impure or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’
Vendar sem rekel: ›Ne tako, Gospod, kajti v moja usta nikoli ni vstopilo nič oskrunjenega ali nečistega.‹
9 But the voice spoke from heaven a second time, ‘Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.’
Toda glas iz neba mi je ponovno odgovoril: ›Kar je Bog očistil, tega ne imenuj oskrunjeno.‹
10 This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into heaven.
To pa se je zgodilo trikrat in vse je bilo ponovno dvignjeno v nebo.
11 Just then three men sent to me from Caesarea stopped at the house where I was staying.
In glej, takoj so bili tam trije možje, poslani k meni iz Cezareje, [ki so] že prišli k hiši, kjer sem bil.
12 The Spirit told me to accompany them without hesitation. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s home.
In Duh mi je zaukazal, naj grem z njimi, ne da bi kaj dvomil. Poleg tega me je spremljalo teh šest bratov in vstopili smo v moževo hišo
13 He told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house and saying, ‘Send to Joppa for Simon who is called Peter.
in razložil nam je, kako je v svoji hiši videl angela, ki je stal ter mu rekel: ›Pošlji može v Jopo in pokliči Simona, katerega vzdevek je Peter,
14 He will convey to you a message by which you and all your household will be saved.’
ki ti bo povedal besede, po katerih boš rešen ti in vsa tvoja hiša.‹
15 As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, just as He had fallen upon us at the beginning.
In ko sem začel govoriti, je nanje padel Sveti Duh, kakor v začetku na nas.
16 Then I remembered the word of the Lord, as He used to say, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’
Potem sem se spomnil Gospodove besede, kako je rekel: ›Janez je zares krščeval z vodo, toda vi boste krščeni s Svetim Duhom.‹
17 So if God gave them the same gift He gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to hinder the work of God?”
Torej jim je tedaj Bog dal podoben dar, kakor ga je dal nam, ki smo verovali v Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa. Kaj sem bil jaz, da bi se mogel zoperstaviti Bogu?«
18 When they heard this, their objections were put to rest, and they glorified God, saying, “So then, God has granted even the Gentiles repentance unto life.”
Ko so slišali te stvari, so molčali in slavili Boga, rekoč: »Torej je Bog tudi poganom zagotovil kesanje v življenje.«
19 Meanwhile those scattered by the persecution that began with Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the message only to Jews.
Torej tisti, ki so bili razkropljeni naokoli zaradi preganjanja, ki je nastalo okoli Štefana, so potovali prav do Fenikije in Cipra in Antiohije in nikomur niso oznanjali besede, razen samo Judom.
20 But some of them, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began speaking to the Greeks as well, proclaiming the good news about the Lord Jesus.
Nekateri izmed teh pa so bili možje s Cipra in Cirene, ki so, ko so prišli v Antiohijo, govorili Grkom ter oznanjali Gospoda Jezusa.
21 The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.
In Gospodova roka je bila z njimi, in veliko število [jih] je verovalo ter se spreobrnilo h Gospodu.
22 When news of this reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
Potem so besede o teh stvareh prišle do ušes cerkve, ki je bila v Jeruzalemu, in poslali so naprej Barnaba, da bi šel prav do Antiohije.
23 When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he rejoiced and encouraged them all to abide in the Lord with all their hearts.
Kateri, ko je prišel in videl Božjo milost, je bil vesel in vse spodbujal, da bi se s srčnim namenom trdno držali Gospoda.
24 Barnabas was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord.
Kajti bil je dober človek ter poln Svetega Duha in vere. In mnogo ljudi je bilo dodanih h Gospodu.
25 Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul,
Potem se je Barnaba odpravil v Tarz, da poišče Savla,
26 and when he found him, he brought him back to Antioch. So for a full year they met together with the church and taught large numbers of people. The disciples were first called Christians at Antioch.
in ko ga je našel, ga je privedel v Antiohijo. In pripetilo se je, da sta se celo leto zbirala s cerkvijo ter učila mnogo ljudi. In učenci so bili v Antiohiji prvič imenovani kristjani.
27 In those days some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
In v teh dneh so prišli preroki iz Jeruzalema v Antiohijo.
28 One of them named Agabus stood up and predicted through the Spirit that a great famine would sweep across the whole world. (This happened under Claudius.)
In vstal je nekdo, po imenu Agab ter po Duhu kazal, da naj bi bilo veliko pomanjkanje po vsem celotnem svetu, ki se je zgodilo v dneh cesarja Klavdija.
29 So the disciples, each according to his ability, decided to send relief to the brothers living in Judea.
Potem so bili učenci, vsak mož glede na svojo zmožnost, odločeni, da pošljejo pomoč bratom, ki prebivajo v Judeji,
30 This they did, sending their gifts to the elders with Barnabas and Saul.
kar so tudi storili in to po Barnabovih ter Savlovih rokah poslali starešinam.
