Acts 1
1 The former narrative I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus both did and taught from the beginning
he thiyaphila, yīśuḥ svamanonītān preritān pavitreṇātmanā samādiśya yasmin dine svargamārohat yāṁ yāṁ kriyāmakarot yadyad upādiśacca tāni sarvvāṇi pūrvvaṁ mayā likhitāni|
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;
sa svanidhanaduḥkhabhogāt param anekapratyayakṣapramāṇauḥ svaṁ sajīvaṁ darśayitvā
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.
catvāriṁśaddināni yāvat tebhyaḥ preritebhyo darśanaṁ dattveśvarīyarājyasya varṇanama akarot|
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;
anantaraṁ teṣāṁ sabhāṁ kṛtvā ityājñāpayat, yūyaṁ yirūśālamo'nyatra gamanamakṛtvā yastin pitrāṅgīkṛte mama vadanāt kathā aśṛṇuta tatprāptim apekṣya tiṣṭhata|
5 for John indeed baptized with water, but ye will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days hence.
yohan jale majjitāvān kintvalpadinamadhye yūyaṁ pavitra ātmani majjitā bhaviṣyatha|
6 They therefore, having come together, asked him, saying, Lord, art thou at this time about to restore the kingdom to Israel?
paścāt te sarvve militvā tam apṛcchan he prabho bhavān kimidānīṁ punarapi rājyam isrāyelīyalokānāṁ kareṣu samarpayiṣyati?
7 But he said to them, It belongeth not to you to know times or seasons, which the Father appointed by his own authority.
tataḥ sovadat yān sarvvān kālān samayāṁśca pitā svavaśe'sthāpayat tān jñātṛṁ yuṣmākam adhikāro na jāyate|
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.
kintu yuṣmāsu pavitrasyātmana āvirbhāve sati yūyaṁ śaktiṁ prāpya yirūśālami samastayihūdāśomiroṇadeśayoḥ pṛthivyāḥ sīmāṁ yāvad yāvanto deśāsteṣu yarvveṣu ca mayi sākṣyaṁ dāsyatha|
9 And having thus spoken, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
iti vākyamuktvā sa teṣāṁ samakṣaṁ svargaṁ nīto'bhavat, tato meghamāruhya teṣāṁ dṛṣṭeragocaro'bhavat|
10 And while they were looking earnestly into heaven as he went up, lo! two men stood by them in white apparel,
yasmin samaye te vihāyasaṁ pratyananyadṛṣṭyā tasya tādṛśam ūrdvvagamanam apaśyan tasminneva samaye śuklavastrau dvau janau teṣāṁ sannidhau daṇḍāyamānau kathitavantau,
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.
he gālīlīyalokā yūyaṁ kimarthaṁ gagaṇaṁ prati nirīkṣya daṇḍāyamānāstiṣṭhatha? yuṣmākaṁ samīpāt svargaṁ nīto yo yīśustaṁ yūyaṁ yathā svargam ārohantam adarśam tathā sa punaścāgamiṣyati|
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem, from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, within a sabbath-day's journey.
tataḥ paraṁ te jaitunanāmnaḥ parvvatād viśrāmavārasya pathaḥ parimāṇam arthāt prāyeṇārddhakrośaṁ durasthaṁ yirūśālamnagaraṁ parāvṛtyāgacchan|
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.
nagaraṁ praviśya pitaro yākūb yohan āndriyaḥ philipaḥ thomā barthajamayo mathirālphīyaputro yākūb udyogā śimon yākūbo bhrātā yihūdā ete sarvve yatra sthāne pravasanti tasmin uparitanaprakoṣṭhe prāviśan|
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer, with women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
paścād ime kiyatyaḥ striyaśca yīśo rmātā mariyam tasya bhrātaraścaite sarvva ekacittībhūta satataṁ vinayena vinayena prārthayanta|
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, )
tasmin samaye tatra sthāne sākalyena viṁśatyadhikaśataṁ śiṣyā āsan| tataḥ pitarasteṣāṁ madhye tiṣṭhan uktavān
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.
he bhrātṛgaṇa yīśudhāriṇāṁ lokānāṁ pathadarśako yo yihūdāstasmin dāyūdā pavitra ātmā yāṁ kathāṁ kathayāmāsa tasyāḥ pratyakṣībhavanasyāvaśyakatvam āsīt|
17 For he was numbered among us, and obtained the allotment of this ministry.
sa jano'smākaṁ madhyavarttī san asyāḥ sevāyā aṁśam alabhata|
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.
tadanantaraṁ kukarmmaṇā labdhaṁ yanmūlyaṁ tena kṣetramekaṁ krītam aparaṁ tasmin adhomukhe bhṛmau patite sati tasyodarasya vidīrṇatvāt sarvvā nāḍyo niragacchan|
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.
etāṁ kathāṁ yirūśālamnivāsinaḥ sarvve lokā vidānti; teṣāṁ nijabhāṣayā tatkṣetrañca hakaldāmā, arthāt raktakṣetramiti vikhyātamāste|
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.”
anyacca, niketanaṁ tadīyantu śunyameva bhaviṣyati| tasya dūṣye nivāsārthaṁ kopi sthāsyati naiva hi| anya eva janastasya padaṁ saṁprāpsyati dhruvaṁ| itthaṁ gītapustake likhitamāste|
21 Of these men, therefore, who accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
ato yohano majjanam ārabhyāsmākaṁ samīpāt prabho ryīśoḥ svargārohaṇadinaṁ yāvat sosmākaṁ madhye yāvanti dināni yāpitavān
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.
tāvanti dināni ye mānavā asmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ tiṣṭhanti teṣām ekena janenāsmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ yīśorutthāne sākṣiṇā bhavitavyaṁ|
23 And they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
ato yasya rūḍhi ryuṣṭo yaṁ barśabbetyuktvāhūyanti sa yūṣaph matathiśca dvāvetau pṛthak kṛtvā ta īśvarasya sannidhau prāryya kathitavantaḥ,
24 And they prayed saying, Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all men, show which of these two thou hast chosen
he sarvvāntaryyāmin parameśvara, yihūdāḥ sevanapreritatvapadacyutaḥ
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.
san nijasthānam agacchat, tatpadaṁ labdhum enayo rjanayo rmadhye bhavatā ko'bhirucitastadasmān darśyatāṁ|
26 And they cast lots for them; and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
tato guṭikāpāṭe kṛte matathirniracīyata tasmāt sonyeṣām ekādaśānāṁ praritānāṁ madhye gaṇitobhavat|
