< Acts 2 >

1 Now when the day of Shavu'ot had come, they were all together in one place.
aparañca nistārotsavāt paraṁ pañcāśattame dine samupasthite sati te sarvve ekācittībhūya sthāna ekasmin militā āsan|
2 Suddenly there came from the sky a sound like the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
etasminneva samaye'kasmād ākāśāt pracaṇḍātyugravāyoḥ śabdavad ekaḥ śabda āgatya yasmin gṛhe ta upāviśan tad gṛhaṁ samastaṁ vyāpnot|
3 Tongues like fire appeared and were distributed to them, and one sat on each of them.
tataḥ paraṁ vahniśikhāsvarūpā jihvāḥ pratyakṣībhūya vibhaktāḥ satyaḥ pratijanorddhve sthagitā abhūvan|
4 They were all filled with the Ruach ha-Kodesh, and began to speak in other languages, as the Ruach enabled them to speak out.
tasmāt sarvve pavitreṇātmanā paripūrṇāḥ santa ātmā yathā vācitavān tadanusāreṇānyadeśīyānāṁ bhāṣā uktavantaḥ|
5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout people from every nation under the sky.
tasmin samaye pṛthivīsthasarvvadeśebhyo yihūdīyamatāvalambino bhaktalokā yirūśālami prāvasan;
6 When this sound was heard, the crowd came together, and were bewildered, because everyone heard them speaking in his own language.
tasyāḥ kathāyāḥ kiṁvadantyā jātatvāt sarvve lokā militvā nijanijabhāṣayā śiṣyāṇāṁ kathākathanaṁ śrutvā samudvignā abhavan|
7 They were all amazed and marveled, saying, "Look, are not all these who speak Galileans?
sarvvaeva vismayāpannā āścaryyānvitāśca santaḥ parasparaṁ uktavantaḥ paśyata ye kathāṁ kathayanti te sarvve gālīlīyalokāḥ kiṁ na bhavanti?
8 How do we hear, everyone in our own native language?
tarhi vayaṁ pratyekaśaḥ svasvajanmadeśīyabhāṣābhiḥ kathā eteṣāṁ śṛṇumaḥ kimidaṁ?
9 Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and people from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia,
pārthī-mādī-arāmnaharayimdeśanivāsimano yihūdā-kappadakiyā-panta-āśiyā-
10 Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, the parts of Libya around Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
phrugiyā-pamphuliyā-misaranivāsinaḥ kurīṇīnikaṭavarttilūbīyapradeśanivāsino romanagarād āgatā yihūdīyalokā yihūdīyamatagrāhiṇaḥ krītīyā arābīyādayo lokāśca ye vayam
11 Cretans and Arabians: we hear them speaking in our tongues the mighty works of God."
asmākaṁ nijanijabhāṣābhireteṣām īśvarīyamahākarmmavyākhyānaṁ śṛṇumaḥ|
12 They were all amazed, and were perplexed, saying one to another, "What does this mean?"
itthaṁ te sarvvaeva vismayāpannāḥ sandigdhacittāḥ santaḥ parasparamūcuḥ, asya ko bhāvaḥ?
13 Others, mocking, said, "They are filled with new wine."
apare kecit parihasya kathitavanta ete navīnadrākṣārasena mattā abhavan|
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and spoke out to them, "You men of Judea, and all you who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to my words.
tadā pitara ekādaśabhi rjanaiḥ sākaṁ tiṣṭhan tāllokān uccaiḥkāram avadat, he yihūdīyā he yirūśālamnivāsinaḥ sarvve, avadhānaṁ kṛtvā madīyavākyaṁ budhyadhvaṁ|
15 For these are not drunk, as you suppose, seeing it is only nine in the morning.
idānīm ekayāmād adhikā velā nāsti tasmād yūyaṁ yad anumātha mānavā ime madyapānena mattāstanna|
16 But this is what has been spoken through the prophet Joel:
kintu yoyelbhaviṣyadvaktraitadvākyamuktaṁ yathā,
17 'And it will be in the last days, says God, that I will pour out my Ruach on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.
īśvaraḥ kathayāmāsa yugāntasamaye tvaham| varṣiṣyāmi svamātmānaṁ sarvvaprāṇyupari dhruvam| bhāvivākyaṁ vadiṣyanti kanyāḥ putrāśca vastutaḥ|pratyādeśañca prāpsyanti yuṣmākaṁ yuvamānavāḥ| tathā prācīnalokāstu svapnān drakṣyanti niścitaṁ|
18 And even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Ruach in those days, and they will prophesy.
varṣiṣyāmi tadātmānaṁ dāsadāsījanopiri| tenaiva bhāvivākyaṁ te vadiṣyanti hi sarvvaśaḥ|
19 And I will show wonders in the sky above, and signs on the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and billows of smoke.
ūrddhvasthe gagaṇe caiva nīcasthe pṛthivītale| śoṇitāni bṛhadbhānūn ghanadhūmādikāni ca| cihnāni darśayiṣyāmi mahāścaryyakriyāstathā|
20 The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and glorious day of the Lord comes.
mahābhayānakasyaiva taddinasya pareśituḥ| purāgamād raviḥ kṛṣṇo raktaścandro bhaviṣyataḥ|
21 And it will be that whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.'
kintu yaḥ parameśasya nāmni samprārthayiṣyate| saeva manujo nūnaṁ paritrāto bhaviṣyati||
22 "Men of Israel, hear these words. Yeshua the Natzrati, a man approved by God to you by mighty works and wonders and signs which God did by him in the midst of you, even as you yourselves know,
ato he isrāyelvaṁśīyalokāḥ sarvve kathāyāmetasyām mano nidhaddhvaṁ nāsaratīyo yīśurīśvarasya manonītaḥ pumān etad īśvarastatkṛtairāścaryyādbhutakarmmabhi rlakṣaṇaiśca yuṣmākaṁ sākṣādeva pratipāditavān iti yūyaṁ jānītha|
23 him, being delivered up by the determined counsel and foreknowledge of God, by the hand of lawless men, crucified and killed;
tasmin yīśau īśvarasya pūrvvaniścitamantraṇānirūpaṇānusāreṇa mṛtyau samarpite sati yūyaṁ taṁ dhṛtvā duṣṭalokānāṁ hastaiḥ kruśe vidhitvāhata|
24 whom God raised up, having freed him from the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it.
kintvīśvarastaṁ nidhanasya bandhanānmocayitvā udasthāpayat yataḥ sa mṛtyunā baddhastiṣṭhatīti na sambhavati|
25 For David says concerning him, 'I saw the Lord always before me, for he is at my right hand, that I should not be shaken.
etastin dāyūdapi kathitavān yathā, sarvvadā mama sākṣāttaṁ sthāpaya parameśvaraṁ| sthite maddakṣiṇe tasmin skhaliṣyāmi tvahaṁ nahi|
26 Therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced, and moreover my flesh also will dwell in hope;
ānandiṣyati taddheto rmāmakīnaṁ manastu vai| āhlādiṣyati jihvāpi madīyā tu tathaiva ca| pratyāśayā śarīrantu madīyaṁ vaiśayiṣyate|
27 because you will not abandon my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your Holy One to see decay. (Hadēs g86)
paraloke yato hetostvaṁ māṁ naiva hi tyakṣyasi| svakīyaṁ puṇyavantaṁ tvaṁ kṣayituṁ naiva dāsyasi| evaṁ jīvanamārgaṁ tvaṁ māmeva darśayiṣyasi| (Hadēs g86)
28 You made known to me the paths of life. You will make me full of joy in your presence.'
svasammukhe ya ānando dakṣiṇe svasya yat sukhaṁ| anantaṁ tena māṁ pūrṇaṁ kariṣyasi na saṁśayaḥ||
29 "Brothers, I may tell you freely of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
he bhrātaro'smākaṁ tasya pūrvvapuruṣasya dāyūdaḥ kathāṁ spaṣṭaṁ kathayituṁ mām anumanyadhvaṁ, sa prāṇān tyaktvā śmaśāne sthāpitobhavad adyāpi tat śmaśānam asmākaṁ sannidhau vidyate|
30 Therefore, being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that one of his descendants would sit on his throne,
phalato laukikabhāvena dāyūdo vaṁśe khrīṣṭaṁ janma grāhayitvā tasyaiva siṁhāsane samuveṣṭuṁ tamutthāpayiṣyati parameśvaraḥ śapathaṁ kutvā dāyūdaḥ samīpa imam aṅgīkāraṁ kṛtavān,
31 he foreseeing this spoke about the resurrection of the Messiah, that neither was he left in Sheol, nor did his flesh see decay. (Hadēs g86)
iti jñātvā dāyūd bhaviṣyadvādī san bhaviṣyatkālīyajñānena khrīṣṭotthāne kathāmimāṁ kathayāmāsa yathā tasyātmā paraloke na tyakṣyate tasya śarīrañca na kṣeṣyati; (Hadēs g86)
32 This Yeshua God raised up, to which we all are witnesses.
ataḥ parameśvara enaṁ yīśuṁ śmaśānād udasthāpayat tatra vayaṁ sarvve sākṣiṇa āsmahe|
33 Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Ruach ha-Kodesh, he has poured out this, which you see and hear.
sa īśvarasya dakṣiṇakareṇonnatiṁ prāpya pavitra ātmina pitā yamaṅgīkāraṁ kṛtavān tasya phalaṁ prāpya yat paśyatha śṛṇutha ca tadavarṣat|
34 For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he says himself, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit by my right hand,
yato dāyūd svargaṁ nāruroha kintu svayam imāṁ kathām akathayad yathā, mama prabhumidaṁ vākyamavadat parameśvaraḥ|
35 until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet."'
tava śatrūnahaṁ yāvat pādapīṭhaṁ karomi na| tāvat kālaṁ madīye tvaṁ dakṣavārśva upāviśa|
36 "Let all the house of Israel therefore know certainly that God has made him both Lord and Messiah, this Yeshua whom you crucified."
ato yaṁ yīśuṁ yūyaṁ kruśe'hata parameśvarastaṁ prabhutvābhiṣiktatvapade nyayuṁkteti isrāyelīyā lokā niścitaṁ jānantu|
37 Now when they heard this, they were acutely distressed, and said to Peter and the rest of the emissaries, "Brothers, what shall we do?"
etādṛśīṁ kathāṁ śrutvā teṣāṁ hṛdayānāṁ vidīrṇatvāt te pitarāya tadanyapreritebhyaśca kathitavantaḥ, he bhrātṛgaṇa vayaṁ kiṁ kariṣyāmaḥ?
38 Peter said to them, "Repent, and be immersed, every one of you, in the name of Yeshua the Messiah for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
tataḥ pitaraḥ pratyavadad yūyaṁ sarvve svaṁ svaṁ manaḥ parivarttayadhvaṁ tathā pāpamocanārthaṁ yīśukhrīṣṭasya nāmnā majjitāśca bhavata, tasmād dānarūpaṁ paritram ātmānaṁ lapsyatha|
39 For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all who are far off, even as many as the Lord our God will call to himself."
yato yuṣmākaṁ yuṣmatsantānānāñca dūrasthasarvvalokānāñca nimittam arthād asmākaṁ prabhuḥ parameśvaro yāvato lākān āhvāsyati teṣāṁ sarvveṣāṁ nimittam ayamaṅgīkāra āste|
40 With many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, "Save yourselves from this crooked generation."
etadanyābhi rbahukathābhiḥ pramāṇaṁ datvākathayat etebhyo vipathagāmibhyo varttamānalokebhyaḥ svān rakṣata|
41 Then those who received his word were immersed. There were added that day about three thousand souls.
tataḥ paraṁ ye sānandāstāṁ kathām agṛhlan te majjitā abhavan| tasmin divase prāyeṇa trīṇi sahasrāṇi lokāsteṣāṁ sapakṣāḥ santaḥ
42 They continued steadfastly in the emissaries' teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and prayer.
preritānām upadeśe saṅgatau pūpabhañjane prārthanāsu ca manaḥsaṁyogaṁ kṛtvātiṣṭhan|
43 Fear came on every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the emissaries.
preritai rnānāprakāralakṣaṇeṣu mahāścaryyakarmamasu ca darśiteṣu sarvvalokānāṁ bhayamupasthitaṁ|
44 All who believed were together, and had all things in common.
viśvāsakāriṇaḥ sarvva ca saha tiṣṭhanataḥ| sveṣāṁ sarvvāḥ sampattīḥ sādhāraṇyena sthāpayitvābhuñjata|
45 They sold their possessions and goods, and distributed them to all, according as anyone had need.
phalato gṛhāṇi dravyāṇi ca sarvvāṇi vikrīya sarvveṣāṁ svasvaprayojanānusāreṇa vibhajya sarvvebhyo'dadan|
46 Day by day, continuing steadfastly with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread at home, they took their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
sarvva ekacittībhūya dine dine mandire santiṣṭhamānā gṛhe gṛhe ca pūpānabhañjanta īśvarasya dhanyavādaṁ kurvvanto lokaiḥ samādṛtāḥ paramānandena saralāntaḥkaraṇena bhojanaṁ pānañcakurvvan|
47 praising God, and having favor with all the people. The Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.
parameśvaro dine dine paritrāṇabhājanai rmaṇḍalīm avarddhayat|
