Acts 9
1 And Saul, as yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
Savel pa, ki je še vedno izdihoval grožnje in poboj zoper Gospodove učence, je odšel k vélikemu duhovniku
2 And asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any men and women of this way, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
in si od njega izprosil pisem za shodnice v Damasku, da če najde kogarkoli od te poti, bodisi moške ali ženske, bi jih lahko zvezane privedel v Jeruzalem.
3 And as he went on his journey, it came to pass that he drew nigh to Damascus; and suddenly a light from heaven shined round about him.
Medtem ko je potoval, se je približal Damasku in nenadoma je naokoli njega zasvetila svetloba iz nebes
4 And falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
in padel je na tla ter zaslišal glas, ki mu je rekel: »Savel, Savel, zakaj me preganjaš?«
5 Who said: Who art thou, Lord? And he: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. It is hard for thee to kick against the goad.
On pa je rekel: »Kdo si ti, Gospod?« In Gospod je rekel: »Jaz sem Jezus, ki ga ti preganjaš. Zate je to težko, da se upiraš bodicam.«
6 And he trembling and astonished, said: Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
In ta je trepetajoč in osupel rekel: »Gospod, kaj hočeš, da storim?« In Gospod mu je rekel: »Vstani in pojdi v mesto in povedano ti bo, kaj moraš storiti.«
7 And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the city, and there it shall be told thee what thou must do. Now the men who went in company with him, stood amazed, hearing indeed a voice, but seeing no man.
Možje, ki so potovali z njim, pa so stali brez besed, ker so poslušali glas, vendar niso videli nobenega človeka.
8 And Saul arose from the ground; and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. But they leading him by the hands, brought him to Damascus.
In Savel se je dvignil s tal in ko so bile njegove oči odprte, ni videl nobenega človeka, ampak so ga vodili za roko in ga privedli v Damask.
9 And he was there three days, without sight, and he did neither eat nor drink.
In tri dni je bil brez vida in ni ne jedel, ne pil.
10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision: Ananias. And he said: Behold I am here, Lord.
V Damasku pa je bil nek učenec, po imenu Hananija in njemu je Gospod v videnju rekel: »Hananija.« In ta je rekel: »Glej, jaz sem tu, Gospod.«
11 And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the street that is called Stait, and seek in the house of Judas, one named Saul of Tarsus. For behold he prayeth.
In Gospod mu je rekel: »Vstani in pojdi v ulico, ki se imenuje Ravna in v Judovi hiši povprašaj za nekoga, ki se imenuje Savel iz Tarza; kajti glej, on moli
12 (And he saw a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hands upon him, that he might receive his sight.)
in v videnju je videl moža, imenovanega Hananija, ki je vstopil in nanj položil svojo roko, da bi lahko prejel svoj vid.«
13 But Ananias answered: Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints in Jerusalem.
Potem je Hananija odgovoril: »Gospod, od mnogih sem slišal o tem človeku, koliko zla je storil tvojim svetim v Jeruzalemu
14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that invoke thy name.
in tukaj ima od visokih duhovnikov oblast, da zveže vse, ki kličejo tvoje ime.«
15 And the Lord said to him: Go thy way; for this man is to me a vessel of election, to carry my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.
Toda Gospod mu je rekel: »Odpravi se, kajti on mi je izbrana posoda, da ponese moje ime pred pogane in kralje in Izraelove otroke,
16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.
kajti pokazal mu bom, kako velike stvari mora trpeti zaradi mojega imena.«
17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house. And laying his hands upon him, he said: Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus hath sent me, he that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest; that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
In Hananija je odšel svojo pot ter vstopil v hišo in ko je svoje roke položil nanj, je rekel: »Brat Savel, Gospod, celó Jezus, ki se ti je prikazal na poti, ko si prihajal, me je poslal, da lahko prejmeš svoj vid in izpolnjen boš s Svetim Duhom.«
18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he received his sight; and rising up, he was baptized.
In takoj so z njegovih oči padle, kot bi bile luskine, in nemudoma je prejel vid in vstal ter bil krščen.
19 And when he had taken meat, he was strengthened. And he was with the disciples that were at Damascus, for some days.
In ko je prejel hrano, je bil okrepljen. Potem je bil Savel nekaj dni z učenci, ki so bili v Damasku.
20 And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
In nemudoma je v sinagogah oznanjal Kristusa, da je on Božji Sin.
21 And all that heard him, were astonished, and said: Is not this he who persecuted in Jerusalem those that called upon this name: and came hither for that intent, that he might carry them bound to the chief priests?
Toda vsi, ki so ga slišali, so bili osupli in rekli: »Ali ni to tisti, ki je uničil tiste, ki so se v Jeruzalemu sklicevali na to ime in je prišel sèm zaradi tega namena, da bi jih lahko zvezane privedel k visokim duhovnikom?«
22 But Saul increased much more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, affirming that this is the Christ.
Toda Savel je še bolj narasel v moči in zbegal Jude, ki so prebivali v Damasku ter dokazoval, da je ta pravi Kristus.
23 And when many days were passed, the Jews consulted together to kill him.
In potem, ko so bili izpolnjeni mnogi dnevi, so se Judje posvetovali, da ga ubijejo,
24 But their laying in wait was made known to Saul. And they watched the gates also day and night, that they might kill him.
toda njihovo prežanje v zasedi je bilo sporočeno Savlu. In noč in dan so stražili velika vrata, da ga ubijejo.
25 But the disciples taking him in the night, conveyed him away by the wall, letting him down in a basket.
Potem so ga učenci ponoči vzeli in ga v košari spustili dol ob obzidju.
26 And when he was come into Jerusalem, he essayed to join himself to the disciples; and they all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
In ko je Savel prišel v Jeruzalem, se je poskusil pridružiti učencem, toda vsi so se ga bali in niso verjeli, da je bil učenec.
27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and told them how he had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken to him; and how in Damascus he had dealt confidently in the name of Jesus.
Vendar ga je Barnaba vzel in ga privedel k apostolom ter jim razodel, kako je na poti videl Gospoda in da mu je govoril ter kako je v Damasku pogumno oznanjal v Jezusovem imenu.
28 And he was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, and dealing confidently in the name of the Lord.
In bil je z njimi in prihajal in odhajal iz Jeruzalema.
29 He spoke also to the Gentiles, and disputed with the Greeks; but they sought to kill him.
In pogumno je govoril v imenu Gospoda Jezusa ter se prerekal proti Grkom, toda oni so ga poskušali umoriti.
30 Which when the brethren had known, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him away to Tarsus.
Nakar, ko so bratje [to] izvedeli, so ga odvedli dol v Cezarejo in ga poslali v Tarz.
31 Now the church had peace throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria; and was edified, walking in the fear of the Lord, and was filled with the consolation of the Holy Ghost.
Potem so imele cerkve po vsej celotni Judeji in Galileji ter Samariji mir in se izgrajevale, in ker so živele v strahu Gospodovem ter v tolažbi Svetega Duha, so bile pomnožene.
32 And it came to pass that Peter, as he passed through, visiting all, came to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.
In pripetilo se je, ko je Peter potoval po vseh celotnih okoliših, [da] je prišel tudi dol k svetim, ki so prebivali v Lidi.
33 And he found there a certain man named Eneas, who had kept his bed for eight years, who was ill of the palsy.
In tam je našel nekega moža, po imenu Enéj, ki se je osem let držal svoje postelje in je bil bolan zaradi paralize.
34 And Peter said to him: Eneas, the Lord Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise, and make thy bed. And immediately he arose.
In Peter mu je rekel: »Enéj, Jezus Kristus te celostno ozdravlja. Vstani in postelji svojo posteljo.« In ta je takoj vstal.
35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, saw him: who were converted to the Lord.
In vsi tisti, ki so prebivali v Lidi in Šarónu, so ga videli ter se obrnili h Gospodu.
36 And in Joppe there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
Torej v Jopi je bila neka učenka, po imenu Tabíta, kar se po razlagi imenuje Gazela. Ta ženska je bila polna dobrih del in dejanj miloščine, ki jih je storila.
37 And it came to pass in those days that she was sick, and died. Whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
In pripetilo se je v tistih dneh, da je bila bolna in je umrla. Ko so jo umili, so jo položili v zgornjo sobo.
38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppe, the disciples hearing that Peter was there, sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not be slack to come unto them.
Ker pa je bila Lida blizu Jope in so učenci slišali, da je bil tam Peter, so k njemu poslali dva moža, ki sta ga prosila, da ne bi odlašal priti k njim.
39 And Peter rising up, went with them. And when he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber. And all the widows stood about him weeping, and shewing him the coats and garments which Dorcas made them.
Potem je Peter vstal in odšel z njima. Ko je prišel, so ga odvedli v zgornjo sobo, in vse vdove so jokaje stale poleg njega in kazale plašče ter obleke, ki jih je naredila Gazela, dokler je bila z njimi.
40 And they all being put forth, Peter kneeling down prayed, and turning to the body, he said: Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and seeing Peter, she sat up.
Vendar jih je Peter vse vrgel ven ter pokleknil in molil, in ko se je obrnil k telesu, je rekel: »Tabíta, vstani.« In odprla je svoje oči, in ko je zagledala Petra, se je usedla.
41 And giving her his hand, he lifted her up. And when he had called the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.
In dal ji je svojo roko ter jo dvignil. In ko je poklical svete ter vdove, jo je izročil živo.
42 And it was made known throughout all Joppe; and many believed in the Lord.
In to se je razvedelo po vsej celotni Jopi in mnogi so verovali v Gospoda.
43 And it came to pass, that he abode many days in Joppe, with one Simon a tanner.
In pripetilo se je, da je mnogo dni ostal v Jopi pri nekem strojarju Simonu.
