Acts 11
1 And the apostles and the brethren who were in Judaea heard that the nations also had received the word of God;
Un tie apustuļi un brāļi Jūdu zemē dzirdēja, ka arī pagāni Dieva vārdu bija pieņēmuši.
2 and when Peter went up to Jerusalem, they of the circumcision contended with him,
Un kad Pēteris uz Jeruzālemi nāca, tad tie apgraizītie ar to strīdējās,
3 saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised and hast eaten with them.
Sacīdami: “Tu pie vīriem, kam ir priekšāda, esi iegājis un ar tiem ēdis.”
4 But Peter began and set forth [the matter] to them in order, saying,
Bet Pēteris iesāka tiem pēc kārtas stāstīt sacīdams:
5 I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in an ecstasy I saw a vision, a certain vessel descending like a great sheet, let down by four corners out of heaven, and it came even to me:
“Es Joppes pilsētā Dievu lūdzu, un garā aizgrābts redzēju vienu parādīšanu: kādu trauku nonākam tā kā lielu palagu pie četriem stūriem nolaistu no debesīm, un tas nonāca pie manis.
6 on which having fixed mine eyes, I considered, and saw the quadrupeds of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of the heaven.
To skatīdams es ņēmu vērā un redzēju četrkājīgus lopus un zvērus un tārpus no zemes virsas un putnus, kas apakš debess.
7 And I heard also a voice saying to me, Rise up, Peter, slay and eat.
Un es dzirdēju balsi uz mani sakām: “Celies, Pēteri, kauj un ēd.”
8 And I said, In no wise, Lord, for common or unclean has never entered into my mouth.
Bet es sacīju: “Ak Kungs, ne mūžam! Jo nekas, kas ir negants un nešķīsts, nekad nav nācis manā mutē.”
9 And a voice answered the second time out of heaven, What God has cleansed, do not thou make common.
Un balss no debess man atbildēja otrā kārtā: “Ko Dievs ir šķīstījis, to tev nebūs turēt par negantu.”
10 And this took place thrice, and again all was drawn up into heaven;
Un tas notikās trim reizēm, un viss atkal tapa uzvilkts debesīs.
11 and lo, immediately three men were at the house in which I was, sent to me from Caesarea.
Un redzi, tūdaļ trīs vīri, no Cezarejas pie manis sūtīti, stāvēja priekš tā nama, kur es biju.
12 And the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting. And there went with me these six brethren also, and we entered into the house of the man,
Un Tas Gars uz mani sacīja, lai es tiem ejot līdz bez šaubīšanās, un arī šie seši brāļi man gāja līdz, un mēs iegājām tā vīra namā.
13 and he related to us how he had seen the angel in his house, standing and saying [to him], Send [men] to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
Un tas mums stāstīja, kā tas vienu eņģeli bija redzējis savā namā stāvam un uz viņu sakām: “Sūti vīrus uz Joppi un ataicini Sīmani, ar pavārdu Pēteri.
14 who shall speak words to thee whereby thou shalt be saved, thou and all thy house.
Šis tev vārdus sacīs, caur ko tu ar visu savu namu tapsi izglābts.”
15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them even as upon us also at the beginning.
Un kad es sāku runāt, tad Svētais gars uz tiem krita, tāpat kā arī iesākumā uz mums.
16 And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, John baptised with water, but ye shall be baptised with [the] Holy Spirit.
Un es pieminēju Tā Kunga vārdu, ka Viņš ir sacījis: “Jānis gan ar ūdeni kristījis, bet jūs tapsiet kristīti ar Svēto Garu.”
17 If then God has given them the same gift as also to us when we had believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who indeed was I to be able to forbid God?
Ja nu Dievs tiem tādu pat dāvanu devis kā arī mums, kas esam ticējuši uz To Kungu Jēzu Kristu, kas tad es biju, ka es būtu spējis Dievam to aizliegt?”
18 And when they heard these things they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then indeed God has to the nations also granted repentance to life.
Un tie to dzirdējuši bija ar mieru un teica Dievu sacīdami: “Tad nu Dievs arī pagāniem ir devis atgriešanos no grēkiem uz dzīvību.”
19 They then who had been scattered abroad through the tribulation that took place on the occasion of Stephen, passed through [the country] to Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one but to Jews alone.
Bet nu tie, kas bija izklīduši tai vajāšanā, kas Stefana dēļ bija cēlusies, izgāja līdz Feniķijai, Kiprai un Antioķijai, nevienam to vārdu nesludinādami kā vien Jūdiem.
20 But there were certain of them, Cyprians and Cyrenians, who entering into Antioch spoke to the Greeks also, announcing the glad tidings of the Lord Jesus.
Un viņu starpā bija kādi Kiprieši un Kirenieši, kas nākuši uz Antioķiju arī uz Grieķiem runāja, to evaņģēliju no Tā Kunga Jēzus mācīdami.
21 And [the] Lord's hand was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
Un Tā Kunga roka bija ar tiem, un liels pulks ticēja un atgriezās pie Tā Kunga.
22 And the report concerning them reached the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go through as far as Antioch:
Bet slava par tiem nāca ausīs tai Jeruzālemes draudzei; un tā sūtīja Barnabu, lai noietu līdz Antioķijai.
23 who, having arrived and seeing the grace of God, rejoiced, and exhorted all with purpose of heart to abide with the Lord;
Šis nonācis un to Dieva žēlastību redzējis, priecājās un visus pamācīja, lai tie no sirds dibena apņemtos pie Tā Kunga palikt.
24 for he was a good man and full of [the] Holy Spirit and of faith; and a large crowd [of people] were added to the Lord.
Jo viņš bija labs vīrs un Svētā Gara un ticības pilns. Un labs ļaužu pulks Tam Kungam tapa pievests,
25 And he went away to Tarsus to seek out Saul.
Un Barnaba izgāja uz Tarsu, Saulu meklēt, un to atradis, viņš to noveda uz Antioķiju.
26 And having found [him], he brought him to Antioch. And so it was with them that for a whole year they were gathered together in the assembly and taught a large crowd: and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
Un notikās, ka tie veselu gadu kopā bija tai draudzē un mācīja labu pulku, un ka Antioķijā tos mācekļus sāka saukt par kristīgiem.
27 Now in these days prophets went down from Jerusalem to Antioch;
Un tanīs dienās pravieši nāca no Jeruzālemes uz Antioķiju.
28 and one from among them, by name Agabus, rose up and signified by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine over all the inhabited earth, which also came to pass under Claudius.
Un viens no tiem, ar vārdu Agabs, cēlās un pasludināja caur To Garu, ka liels bada laiks nākšot pār visu pasauli: tas arī noticis apakš Ķeizara Klaudius.
29 And they determined, according as any one of the disciples was well off, each of them to send to the brethren who dwelt in Judaea, to minister [to them];
Un tie mācekļi apņēmās, kā kurš spēja, ko labu par palīgu sūtīt tiem brāļiem, kas dzīvoja Jūdu zemē.
30 which also they did, sending it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
To tie arī darīja, un tiem vecajiem to sūtīja caur Barnabas un Saula roku.
