Acts 2
1 On the day when [the Jews were celebrating the] Pentecost [festival], the [believers] were all together in one place [in Jerusalem].
När sedan pingstdagen var inne, voro de alla församlade med varandra.
2 Suddenly [they heard] a noise [coming] from the sky [that sounded] like a strong wind. Everyone in the entire house where they were sitting heard the noise.
Då kom plötsligt från himmelen ett dån, såsom om en våldsam storm hade dragit fram; och det uppfyllde hela huset där de sutto.
3 Then they saw [what looked] like flames of fire. These flames separated [from one another], and [one of them] came down on [the head of] each of the believers.
Och tungor såsom av eld visade sig för dem och fördelade sig och satte sig på dem, en på var av dem.
4 Then all of the believers were (completely controlled/empowered) by the Holy Spirit {the Holy Spirit (completely controlled/empowered) all of the believers}, and he enabled them to begin speaking other languages [MTY] [that they had not learned].
Och de blevo alla uppfyllda av helig ande och begynte tala andra tungomål, efter som Anden ingav dem att tala.
5 At that time [many] Jews were staying in Jerusalem [to celebrate the Pentecost festival. They were people who] always tried to obey [the Jewish] laws. [They had come] from many different [HYP] countries.
Nu bodde i Jerusalem fromma judiska män från allahanda folk under himmelen.
6 When they heard that [loud] noise [like a wind], a crowd came together [to the place where the believers were]. The crowd (was amazed/did not know what to think), because each of them was hearing [one of] the believers speaking in that person’s own language.
Och när dånet hördes, församlade sig hela hopen, och en stor rörelse uppstod, ty var och en hörde sitt eget tungomål talas av dem.
7 They were completely amazed, and they said [to each other], “All these men who are speaking have [RHQ] [always] resided in Galilee [district, so they would not know our languages].
Och de uppfylldes av häpnad och förundran och sade: "Äro de icke galiléer, alla dessa som här tala?
8 ([We(inc) do not understand] how these men can speak our own native languages!/How can these men speak our own native languages?) [RHQ] [But] all of us hear them [doing that]
Huru kommer det då till, att var och en av oss hör sitt eget modersmål talas?
9 [Some of us are from the regions of] Parthia and Media and Elam, and [others of us] reside [in the regions of] Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia.
Vi må vara parter eller meder eller elamiter, vi må hava vårt hem i Mesopotamien eller Judeen eller Kappadocien, i Pontus eller provinsen Asien,
10 There are some from Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the regions in Libya [that are] near Cyrene [city]. [There are others of us] who are [here] visiting [Jerusalem] from Rome.
i Frygien eller Pamfylien, i Egypten eller i Libyens bygder, åt Cyrene till, eller vara hitflyttade främlingar från Rom,
11 [They include native] Jews as well as non-Jews who have accepted what we Jews believe. And others of us are from Crete [Island] and from [the region of] Arabia. [So how is it that these people] are speaking our languages [MTY], telling us [about] (the great/the mighty things) [that] God has done?”
vi må vara judar eller proselyter, kretenser eller araber, alla höra vi dem på våra egna tungomål tala om Guds väldiga gärningar."
12 All [those people] were amazed, and did not know what to think [about what was happening]. So they asked one another, “What does this mean?”
Så uppfylldes de alla av häpnad och visste icke vad de skulle tänka. Och de sade, den ene till den andre: "Vad kan detta betyda?"
13 But [some] of them (made fun of/laughed at) [those who believed in Jesus]. They said, “[These people are talking like this because] they are drunk!”
Men somliga drevo gäck med dem och sade: "De äro fulla av sött vin."
14 So Peter stood up with the [other] eleven [apostles] and spoke loudly to the [crowd of] people, saying, “[My] fellow Jews and you [others] who are staying in Jerusalem, listen to me, all of you, and I will explain to you what is happening!
Då trädde Petrus fram, jämte de elva, och hov upp sin röst och talade till dem: "I judiske män och I alla Jerusalems invånare, detta mån I veta, och lyssnen nu till mina ord:
15 [Some of] you think that [we(exc) are drunk], but we are not drunk. It is [only] nine o’clock in the morning, [and people here never get drunk this early] in the day!
Det är icke så som I menen, att dessa äro druckna; det är ju blott tredje timmen på dagen.
16 Instead, [what has happened to us is] the [miraculous] thing that the prophet Joel wrote about [long ago]. [Joel wrote]: God says,
Nej, här uppfylles det som är sagt genom profeten Joel:
17 ‘During the last/final days [before I judge all people], I will give my Spirit abundantly/generously to people [SYN] everywhere. [As a result], your sons and daughters will tell [people] messages from me, the young men among you will see visions [from me], and the old men among you will have dreams [that I will give them].
'Och det skall ske i de yttersta dagarna, säger Gud, att jag skall utgjuta av min Ande över allt kött, och edra söner och edra döttrar skola profetera, och edra ynglingar skola se syner, och edra gamla män skola hava drömmar;
18 During those days I will abundantly/generously give my Spirit [even] to men and women believers [who are] my slaves/servants, so they can tell [people] messages from me.
ja, över mina tjänare och mina tjänarinnor skall jag i de dagarna utgjuta av min Ande, och de skola profetera.
19 I will cause amazing things to happen in the sky, and I will do miracles on the earth that will show [that I am powerful]. [Here] on the earth [CHI] I [will cause wars with] blood, fire and thick/dark smoke [everywhere].
Och jag skall låta undertecken synas uppe på himmelen och tecken nere på jorden: blod och eld och rökmoln.
20 [In the sky] the sun will [appear] dark [to people] and the moon [will appear] red [to them. Those things will happen] before the important and splendid/amazing day [MTY] [when I], the Lord [God, will come to judge everyone].
Solen skall vändas i mörker och månen i blod, förrän Herrens dag kommer, den stora och härliga.
21 [Before that time], all those who ask [me] [MTY] [to save them from the guilt of their sins] will be saved {[I], the Lord, will save all those who ask [me] [MTY] [to save them from the guilt of their sins].}’”
Och det skall ske att var och en som åkallar Herrens namn, han skall varda frälst.'
22 [Peter continued], “[My fellow] Israelites, listen to me! [When] Jesus from Nazareth [town lived] among you, God proved to you [that he had sent him] by enabling him to do many amazing miracles. You yourselves know [that this is true].
I män av Israel, hören dessa ord: Jesus från Nasaret, en man som inför eder fick vittnesbörd av Gud genom kraftgärningar och under och tecken, vilka Gud genom honom gjorde bland eder, såsom I själva veten,
23 [Even though you knew that], you turned this man [Jesus] over to his enemies. [However], God had already planned for that, and he knew all about it. Then you urged men [SYN] who do not obey [God’s] law to kill Jesus. They did that by nailing him to a cross.
denne som blev given i edert våld, enligt vad Gud i sitt rådslut och sin försyn hade bestämt, honom haven I genom män som icke veta av lagen låtit fastnagla vid korset och döda.
24 He suffered terribly [when he died, but God caused him to become alive again]. God did not let him continue to be dead, because it was not possible for him [PRS] to remain dead.”
Men Gud gjorde en ände på dödens vånda och lät honom uppstå, eftersom det icke var möjligt att han skulle kunna behållas av döden.
25 “[Long ago King] David wrote [what] the Messiah [said], “knew [that] you, Lord [God, would always] be near me. You are right beside [MTY] me, so I will not be afraid of [those who want to harm me].
Ty David säger med tanke på honom: 'Jag har haft Herren för mina ögon alltid, ja, han är på min högra sida, för att jag icke skall vackla.
26 Because of that I [SYN] joyfully praise [you, O God]. And I am completely confident that [you(sg) will] ([cause my body] to become alive [again]/[raise me from the dead]).
Fördenskull gläder sig mitt hjärta, och min tunga fröjdar sig, och jämväl min kropp får vila med en förhoppning:
27 You will not allow my spirit to remain in the place where the dead are. You will not [even] let my body decay, [because] I am devoted to you and always obey [you]. (Hadēs g86)
den, att du icke skall lämna min själ åt dödsriket och icke låta din Helige se förgängelse. (Hadēs g86)
28 You have told me [that you will cause my body] to become alive [again]. You will make me very happy [because] you will be with me [forever].”
Du har kungjort mig livets vägar; du skall uppfylla mig med glädje inför ditt ansikte.'
29 [Peter] continued, “My fellow Jews, I can tell you confidently that [our royal] ancestor, [King] David, died, and that his [body] was buried {that [people] buried his [body]}. And the place [where they] buried his body is [still] here today.
Mina bröder, jag kan väl fritt säga till eder om vår stamfader David att han är både död och begraven; hans grav finnes ju ibland oss ännu i dag.
30 So [we(inc) know that David was not speaking those words about himself. But] because he was a prophet, [he spoke about the Messiah]. David knew that God had strongly promised him that he would cause one of his descendants to become king [MTY] like David was king. (OR, to [be the Messiah who would] rule [God’s people] like David had ruled [them].)
Men eftersom han var en profet och visste att Gud med ed hade lovat honom att 'av hans livs frukt sätta en konung på hans tron',
31 David knew beforehand [what God would do], so he [was able to] say that God would cause the Messiah to live again [after he died]. He said that God would not let the Messiah remain in the place of the dead, nor let his body decay.” (Hadēs g86)
därför förutsåg han att Messias skulle uppstå, och talade därom och sade att Messias icke skulle lämnas åt dödsriket, och att hans kropp icke skulle se förgängelse. (Hadēs g86)
32 “[After] this [man] Jesus [had died], God caused him to become alive [again]. All of us(exc), [his followers], have seen [and tell people] that Jesus has become alive again.
Denne -- Jesus -- har nu Gud låtit uppstå; därom kunna vi alla vittna.
33 God has greatly honored Jesus [by causing him to rule] right beside him [MTY] [in heaven]. Jesus has received the Holy Spirit from [God] his Father, [just like] God promised. [So] Jesus has generously/abundantly given us the Holy Spirit, [and he has shown that by] what you are seeing and hearing.
Och sedan han genom Guds högra hand har blivit upphöjd och av Fadern undfått den utlovade helige Anden, har han utgjutit vad I här sen och hören.
34 [We(inc) know that David was not speaking about himself] because David did not go up into heaven [as Jesus did]. [Besides that], David himself said [this about the Messiah]: The Lord [God] said to my Lord [the Messiah], ‘Reign here beside me,
Ty icke har David farit upp till himmelen; fastmer säger han själv: 'Herren sade till min herre: Sätt dig på min högra sida,
35 while I completely defeat [MTY] your enemies.’”
till dess jag har lagt dina fiender dig till en fotapall.
36 [Peter concluded], “So I [want you and] all [other] Israelites [MTY] to acknowledge that God has caused this Jesus to be both [our] Lord/Ruler and the Messiah. [But God considers that] you are the ones who nailed Jesus to a cross.”
Så må nu hela Israels hus veta och vara förvissat om att denne Jesus som I haven korsfäst, honom har Gud gjort både till Herre och till Messias."
37 When the people heard what [Peter said], they felt very guilty [IDM]. So they asked him and the other apostles, “Fellow-countrymen, what should we [(exc)] do [so that God will forgive us]?”
När de hörde detta, kände de ett styng i hjärtat. Och de sade till Petrus och de andra apostlarna: "Bröder, vad skola vi göra?"
38 Peter [answered] them, “Each of you should turn away from your sinful behavior. Then [we(exc)] will baptize you, if [you now believe] in Jesus Christ. Then [God] will give you the Holy Spirit.
Petrus svarade dem: "Gören bättring, och låten alla döpa eder i Jesu Kristi namn till edra synders förlåtelse; då skolen I såsom gåva undfå den helige Ande.
39 [God] has promised [to do that] [MTY] for you and your descendants, and for all [others who believe in him], even those who [live] far away [from here]. The Lord our God [will give his Spirit] to everyone whom he invites [to become his people]!”
Ty eder gäller löftet och edra barn, jämväl alla dem som äro i fjärran, så många som Herren, vår Gud, kallar."
40 Peter spoke much more [and] spoke strongly/forcefully to them. He pleaded with them, “[Ask God] to save you [so that he will not punish you when he punishes] these evil people [who have rejected Jesus]!”
Också med många andra ord bad och förmanade han dem, i det han sade: "Låten frälsa eder från detta vrånga släkte."
41 So the people who believed Peter’s message were baptized. There were about 3,000 [SYN] [who] joined the group [of believers] that day.
De som då togo emot hans ort läto döpa sig; och så ökades församlingen på den dagen med vid pass tre tusen personer.
42 They continually obeyed what the apostles taught, and they very frequently met together [with the other believers]. And they continually ate [together and celebrated the Lord’s Supper], and continually prayed [together].
Och dessa höllo fast vid apostlarnas undervisning och brödragemenskapen, vid brödsbrytelsen och bönerna.
43 All the people [SYN] [who were in Jerusalem] were greatly revering [God because] the apostles were frequently doing many kinds of miraculous things.
Och fruktan kom över var och en; och många under och tecken gjordes genom apostlarna.
44 All of those who believed [in Jesus] were united [and regularly met] together. They were also sharing everything that they had with one another.
Men alla de som trodde höllo sig tillsammans och hade allting gemensamt;
45 [From time to time some of] them sold [some of] their land and [some of the other] things that they owned, and they would give [some of] the money [from what they sold] to others [among them], according to what they needed.
de sålde sina jordagods och vad de eljest ägde och delade med sig därav åt alla, eftersom var och en behövde.
46 Every day they continued meeting together in the temple [area]. And every day they gladly and generously shared their food [SYN] [with each other], as they ate together [and celebrated the Lord’s Supper] in their houses.
Och ständigt, var dag, voro de endräktigt tillsammans i helgedomen; och hemma i husen bröto de bröd och åto med fröjd och i hjärtats enfald, och lovade Gud.
47 [As they did so], they were praising God, and all the [other] people [in Jerusalem] were [thinking] favorably about them. [As those things were happening], every day the Lord [Jesus] increased the number of people who were being saved {whom he was saving} [from the guilt of their sins].
Och allt folket vad dem väl bevåget. Och Herren ökade församlingen, dag efter dag, med dem som läto sig frälsas.
