Acts 1
1 The former narrative I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus both did and taught from the beginning
Oma varasemas raamatus, Teofilos, ma kirjutasin kõigest, mida Jeesus hakkas tegema ja õpetama,
2 until the day in which, after he had through the Holy Spirit given commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up;
kuni selle päevani, mil ta võeti taevasse pärast seda, kui ta oma väljavalitud apostlitele oli Püha Vaimu läbi andnud korraldusi.
3 to whom also he showed himself living, after he had suffered, by many sure proofs, appearing to them during forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
Pärast oma kannatusi näitas ta end nendele elavana ja tegi seda veenvalt. Ta ilmus neile neljakümne päeva jooksul ja kõneles Jumala Kuningriigist.
4 And while in assembly with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for what had been promised by the Father, which [[said he]] ye heard from me;
Ühel korral, kui ta koos nendega sõi, andis ta neile käsu: „Ärge lahkuge Jeruusalemmast, vaid oodake mu Isa tõotust, millest te olete minult kuulnud.
5 for John indeed baptized with water, but ye will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days hence.
Sest Johannes ristis veega, aga mõne päeva pärast ristitakse teid Püha Vaimuga.“
6 They therefore, having come together, asked him, saying, Lord, art thou at this time about to restore the kingdom to Israel?
Kui nad jälle kokku tulid, küsisid nad temalt: „Issand, kas sa sel ajal taastad Iisraeli kuningriigi?“
7 But he said to them, It belongeth not to you to know times or seasons, which the Father appointed by his own authority.
Ta vastas: „Teile ei ole teada antud aegu ja ajastuid, mis Isa on oma meelevallas määranud.
8 But ye will receive power when the Holy Spirit hath come upon you; and ye will be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the end of the earth.
Aga te saate Püha Vaimu väe, kes tuleb teie peale, ja peate olema minu tunnistajad Jeruusalemmas ja kõigel Juuda- ja Samaariamaal ja maailma otsani!“
9 And having thus spoken, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Kui ta seda oli öelnud, võeti ta nende nähes üles ja pilv varjas ta nende silme eest.
10 And while they were looking earnestly into heaven as he went up, lo! two men stood by them in white apparel,
Kui nad üksisilmi taevasse vaatasid tema lahkumist, ennäe, siis seisis järsku nende kõrval kaks valgeis riideis meest.
11 who said, Men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This Jesus, who hath been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same manner in which ye beheld him going into heaven.
Nad ütlesid imestunud jüngritele: „Galilea mehed, miks te seisate ja vaatate üles taeva poole? See Jeesus, kes teilt üles võeti taevasse, tuleb samal kombel kui te nägite teda taevasse minevat!“
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem, from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, within a sabbath-day's journey.
Apostlid pöördusid Õlimäelt tagasi Jeruusalemma, mis oli linnast vaid hingamispäeva teekonna kaugusel.
13 And when they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were making their abode, namely, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the zealot, and Judas the brother of James.
Kui nad sinna jõudsid, läksid nad ülemisse tuppa, kus nad peatusid. Seal olid: Peetrus, Jaakobus, Johannes, Andreas, Filippus, Toomas, Bartolomeus, Matteus, Jaakobus Alfeuse poeg, seloot Siimon ja Juudas, Jaakobuse poeg.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer, with women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
Nemad kõik olid ühel meelel lakkamatus palves ja anumises. Nendega olid naisjüngrid ja Maarja, Jeesuse ema, ja tema vennad.
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren, and said, (the number of the names together was about one hundred and twenty, )
Neil päevil tõusis Peetrus usklike hulgas püsti (rahvast oli koos umbes sada kakskümmend inimest)
16 Brethren, it was necessary that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit through the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus.
ja ütles: „Mehed-vennad, täide pidi minema kirjasõna, mis Püha Vaim on Taaveti suu läbi kõnelenud Juudase kohta, kes juhatas Jeesuse kinnivõtjaid –
17 For he was numbered among us, and obtained the allotment of this ministry.
tema oli üks meie hulgast ja valitud samasse ametisse.
18 Now this man purchased a field with the wages of the iniquity; and falling headlong he burst asunder in the middle, and all his bowels gushed out.
Ta ostis ülekohtu palga eest põllu, ja kui ta pea ees alla kukkus, rebis lõhki oma kõhu ja kogu ta sisikond valgus välja.
19 And it became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that that field is called in their own tongue, Aceldamach, that is, Field of Blood.
Igaüks Jeruusalemmas teab, mis temaga juhtus. Sellepärast kutsutaksegi seda põldu nende keeles Hakeldamaks, see tähendab Verepõlluks.
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, “Let his habitation be made desolate, and let no one dwell therein;” and, “Let another take his office.”
Sest lauludes on kirjutatud: „Nende telklaager saagu lagedaks: ärgu olgu nende telkides elanikke!“Ja samuti: „Tema amet saagu teisele!“
21 Of these men, therefore, who accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Nõnda on tarvis valida tema asendaja nende hulgast, kes on meiega olnud kogu selle aja, mil Issand Jeesus meiega sisse ja välja kõndis,
22 from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us, must one be made a witness with us of his resurrection.
alates Johannese ristimisest kuni ajani, mil Jeesus meilt võeti üles. Üks neist peab saama Jeesuse ülestõusmise tunnistajaks koos meiega.“
23 And they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Nõnda nad pakkusid välja kaks meest: Joosepi, keda kutsuti Barsabaseks (tuntud ka kui Justus), ja Mattiase.
24 And they prayed saying, Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all men, show which of these two thou hast chosen
Siis nad palvetasid: „Issand, sina tead iga inimese südant. Näita meile, kumma neist kahest mehest sina oled valinud
25 to take the part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell away, that he might go to his own place.
selleks teenistuseks, mille Juudas jättis, et minna sinna, kuhu ta kuulub.“
26 And they cast lots for them; and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Nad heitsid liisku ja liisk langes Mattiasele. Nõnda lisati ta üheteistkümne apostli hulka.
