Acts 9
1 But Shaul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
Saulus autem adhuc spirans minarum, et cædis in discipulos Domini, accessit ad principem Sacerdotum,
2 and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Urishlim.
et petiit ab eo epistolas in Damascum ad synagogas: ut si quos invenisset huius viæ viros, ac mulieres, vinctos perduceret in Ierusalem.
3 As he traveled, it happened that he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him.
Et cum iter faceret, contigit ut appropinquaret Damasco: et subito circumfulsit eum lux de cælo.
4 And he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Shaul, Shaul, why do you persecute me?"
Et cadens in terram audivit vocem dicentem sibi: Saule, Saule, quid me persequeris?
5 And he said, "Who are you, Lord?" And he said, "I am Yeshua, whom you are persecuting.
Qui dixit: Quis es Domine? Et ille: Ego sum Iesus, quem tu persequeris. durum est tibi contra stimulum calcitrare.
6 But rise up, and enter into the city, and you will be told what you must do."
Et tremens, ac stupens dixit: Domine, quid me vis facere? Et Dominus ad eum: Surge, et ingredere civitatem, et ibi dicetur tibi quid te oporteat facere.
7 The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the sound, but seeing no one.
Viri autem illi, qui comitabantur cum eo, stabant stupefacti, audientes quidem vocem, neminem autem videntes.
8 Shaul arose from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see anything. They led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.
Surrexit autem Saulus de terra, apertisque oculis nihil videbat. Ad manus autem illum trahentes, introduxerunt Damascum.
9 He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.
Et erat ibi tribus diebus non videns, et non manducavit, neque bibit.
10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Khananya. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Khananya." And he said, "Look, it's me, Lord."
Erat autem quidam discipulus Damasci, nomine Ananias: et dixit ad illum in visu Dominus: Anania. At ille ait: Ecce ego, Domine.
11 The Lord said to him, "Arise, and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Yehudah for one named Shaul, a man of Tarsus. For look, he is praying,
Et Dominus ad eum: Surge, et vade in vicum, qui vocatur rectus: et quære in domo Iudæ Saulum nomine Tarsensem: ecce enim orat.
12 and in a vision he has seen a man named Khananya coming in, and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight."
(Et vidit virum Ananiam nomine, introeuntem, et imponentem sibi manus ut visum recipiat.)
13 But Khananya answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Urishlim.
Respondit autem Ananias: Domine, audivi a multis de viro hoc, quanta mala fecerit sanctis tuis in Ierusalem:
14 Here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name."
et hic habet potestatem a principibus sacerdotum alligandi omnes, qui invocant nomen tuum.
15 But the Lord said to him, "Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the people of Israyel.
Dixit autem ad eum Dominus: Vade, quoniam vas electionis est mihi iste, ut portet nomen meum coram gentibus, et regibus, et filiis Israel.
16 For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name's sake."
Ego enim ostendam illi quanta oporteat eum pro nomine meo pati.
17 Khananya departed, and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, "Brother Shaul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me, that you may receive your sight, and be filled with the Rukha d'Qudsha."
Et abiit Ananias, et introivit in domum: et imponens ei manus, dixit: Saule frater, Dominus misit me Iesus, qui apparuit tibi in via, qua veniebas ut videas, et implearis Spiritu sancto.
18 Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was baptized.
Et confestim ceciderunt ab oculis eius tamquam squamæ, et visum recepit: et surgens baptizatus est.
19 He took food and was strengthened. He stayed several days with the disciples who were at Damascus.
Et cum accepisset cibum, confortatus est. Fuit autem cum discipulis, qui erant Damasci, per dies aliquot.
20 Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed Yeshua, that he is the Son of God.
Et continuo in synagogis prædicabat Iesum, quoniam hic est Filius Dei.
21 All who heard him were amazed, and said, "Is not this he who in Urishlim made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief priests."
Stupebant autem omnes, qui audiebant, et dicebant: Nonne hic est, qui expugnabat in Ierusalem eos, qui invocabant nomen istud: et huc ad hoc venit ut vinctos illos duceret ad principes sacerdotum?
22 But Shaul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Meshikha.
Saulus autem multo magis convalescebat, et confundebat Iudæos, qui habitabant Damasci, affirmans quoniam hic est Christus.
23 When many days were fulfilled, the Jews conspired together to kill him,
Cum autem implerentur dies multi, consilium fecerunt in unum Iudæi ut eum interficerent.
24 but their plot became known to Shaul. They watched the gates both day and night that they might kill him,
Notæ autem factæ sunt Saulo insidiæ eorum. Custodiebant autem et portas die ac nocte, ut eum interficerent.
25 but his disciples took him by night, and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
Accipientes autem eum discipuli nocte, per murum dimiserunt eum, submittentes in sporta.
26 When Shaul had come to Urishlim, he tried to join himself to the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
Cum autem venisset in Ierusalem, tentabat se iungere discipulis, et omnes timebant eum, non credentes quod esset discipulus.
27 But Bar-Naba took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Yeshua.
Barnabas autem apprehensum illum duxit ad Apostolos: et narravit illis quomodo in via vidisset Dominum, et quia locutus est ei, et quomodo in Damasco fiducialiter egerit in nomine Iesu.
28 He was with them coming in and going out in Urishlim, speaking boldly in the name of the Lord.
Et erat cum illis intrans, et exiens in Ierusalem, et fiducialiter agens in nomine Domini.
29 He spoke and disputed against the Hellenists, but they were seeking to kill him.
Loquebatur quoque Gentibus, et disputabat cum Græcis: illi autem quærebant occidere eum.
30 When the brothers knew it, they brought him down to Qesarya, and sent him off to Tarsus.
Quod cum cognovissent fratres, deduxerunt eum Cæsaream, et dimiserunt Tarsum.
31 So the church throughout all Yehuda and Galila and Samaria had peace, and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Rukha d'Qudsha.
Ecclesia quidem per totam Iudæam, et Galilæam, et Samariam habebat pacem, et ædificabatur ambulans in timore Domini, et consolatione sancti Spiritus replebatur.
32 It happened, as Kipha went throughout all those parts, he came down also to the saints who lived at Lud.
Factum est autem, ut Petrus dum pertransiret universos, deveniret ad sanctos, qui habitabant Lyddæ.
33 There he found a certain man named Aniyas, who had been bedridden for eight years, because he was paralyzed.
Invenit autem ibi hominem quendam, nomine Æneam, ab annis octo iacentem in grabato, qui erat paralyticus.
34 Kipha said to him, "Aniyas, Yeshua Meshikha heals you. Get up and make your bed." Immediately he arose.
Et ait illi Petrus: Ænea, sanat te Dominus Iesus Christus: surge, et sterne tibi. Et continuo surrexit.
35 All who lived at Lud and in Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.
Et viderunt eum omnes, qui habitabant Lyddæ, et Saronæ: qui conversi sunt ad Dominum.
36 Now there was at Yupi a certain disciple named Tabitha (which when translated, means Dorcas). This woman was full of good works and acts of mercy which she did.
In Ioppe autem fuit quædam discipula, nomine Tabitha, quæ interpretata dicitur Dorcas. Hæc erat plena operibus bonis, et eleemosynis, quas faciebat.
37 It happened in those days that she fell sick, and died. When they had washed her, they placed her in an upper chamber.
Factum est autem in diebus illis, ut infirmata moreretur. Quam cum lavissent, posuerunt eam in cœnaculo.
38 As Lud was near Yupi, the disciples, hearing that Kipha was there, sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to us.
Cum autem prope esset Lydda ad Ioppen, discipuli audientes quia Petrus esset in ea, miserunt duos viros ad eum, rogantes: Ne pigriteris venire ad nos.
39 Kipha got up and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper chamber. All the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
Exurgens autem Petrus venit cum illis. Et cum advenisset, duxerunt illum in cœnaculum: et circumsteterunt illum omnes viduæ flentes, et ostendentes ei tunicas, et vestes, quas faciebat illis Dorcas.
40 Kipha put them all out, and kneeled down and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, "Tabitha, get up." She opened her eyes, and when she saw Kipha, she sat up.
Eiectis autem omnibus foras: Petrus ponens genua oravit: et conversus ad corpus, dixit: Tabitha, surge. At illa aperuit oculos suos: et viso Petro, resedit.
41 He gave her his hand, and raised her up. Calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive.
Dans autem illi manum, erexit eam. Et cum vocasset sanctos, et viduas, assignavit eam vivam.
42 And it became known throughout all Yupi, and many believed in the Lord.
Notum autem factum est per universam Ioppen: et crediderunt multi in Domino.
43 It happened, that he stayed many days in Yupi with one Shimon, a tanner.
Factum est autem ut dies multos moraretur in Ioppe, apud Simonem quendam coriarium.
