Acts 21
1 [After] we said goodbye to the elders [from Ephesus], we [got on the ship and] sailed to Cos [Island, where the ship stopped for the night]. The next day we sailed from Cos to Rhodes [Island, where the ship stopped again. The day after] that we sailed to Patara [town, where the ship stopped. This was on Patara Island].
Ko se je pa zgodilo, da smo se odtrgali od njih in smo se odpeljali, prišli smo na ravnost v Kon, drugi dan v Rod, in odtod v Pataro,
2 [At Patara we left that ship, and someone told us that] there was a ship that would be going to Phoenicia [region. So] we got on that ship, and it left.
In ko smo našli ladjo, ktera je imela jadrati v Fenicijo, vstopili smo in smo se peljali.
3 [We sailed until] we could see Cyprus [Island]. We passed to the south of the island and continued sailing until we arrived at [Phoenicia region, in] Syria [province]. We arrived at Tyre [city. The ship was going to stay there several days, because its workers] had to unload the cargo.
Ko smo pa Ciper ugledali, pustili smo ga na levej, in peljali smo se v Sirijo, in prišli smo v Tir; tu namreč je imela ladja iztovoriti blago.
4 [Someone told us] where the believers in Tyre lived, so we [(exc) went and] stayed with them for seven days. Because [God’s] Spirit revealed to them ([that people would cause Paul to suffer/Paul would suffer]) [in Jerusalem], they told Paul that he should not go there.
In ko smo učencev našli, ostali smo tu sedem dnî; ti so govorili Pavlu po Duhu, naj ne hodi gor v Jeruzalem.
5 But when it was time [for the ship to leave again], we [prepared to] continue going [to Jerusalem]. When we left [Tyre], all the believers, including their wives and children, went with us [to the edge of the sea]. We all knelt down there on the sand/shore and prayed.
Ko so se pa dnevi izpolnili, izšli smo, in spremljali so nas vsi z ženami in otroci noter do predmestja, in pokleknivši na bregu, molili smo.
6 After we all said goodbye, Paul and we [his companions] got on the ship, and the [other] believers returned to their own homes.
In ko smo se poslovili eden od drugega, stopili smo v ladjo; a oni so se vrnili domú.
7 After we [(exc)] left Tyre, we continued on [that ship] to Ptolemais [city]. There were believers there, and we greeted them and stayed with them that night.
Mi pa, ko smo vožnjo iz Tira dokončali, prišli smo dol v Ptolemajdo; in pozdravivši se z brati, ostali smo en dan pri njih.
8 The next day we left [Ptolemais] and sailed to Caesarea [city], where we stayed in the home of Philip, who [spent his days] telling others how to become disciples of Jesus. He was one of the seven [men whom the believers in Jerusalem had chosen to care for the widows].
A drugi dan smo izšli, Pavel in kteri smo bili ž njim, in prišli smo v Cezarejo; in šli smo v hišo Filipa evangelista, ki je bil eden od sedmerih, in ostali smo pri njem.
9 He had four daughters who were not married. Each of them [frequently] spoke messages that the Holy Spirit had revealed to them.
Ta pa je imel štiri hčere device, ktere so prerokovale.
10 After [we(exc) had been in Philip’s house for] several days, a believer whose name was Agabus came down from Judea [district] and arrived [in Caesarea]. He [frequently] spoke messages that the Holy Spirit had told him.
Ko smo se pa več dnî mudili, pride iz Judeje neki prerok po imenu Agab.
11 Coming over to where we were, he took off Paul’s belt. Then he tied his own feet and hands with it and said, “The Holy Spirit says, ‘The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] in Jerusalem will tie up [the hands and feet of] the owner of this belt, like this, and they will hand him over to non-Jewish people [as a prisoner].’”
In ko je prišel k nam, vzeme pas Pavlov, in zvezavši si roke in noge, reče: To velí sveti Duh: Moža, kogar je ta pas, bodo tako zvezali Judje v Jeruzalemu, in izročili ga bodo poganom v roke.
12 When [the rest of] us heard that, we and [other] believers there repeatedly pled with Paul, “Please do not go up to Jerusalem!”
Ko smo pa to slišali, prosili smo mi in ondejšnji, naj ne hodi gor v Jeruzalem.
13 But Paul replied, “(Please stop crying and trying to discourage me [IDM] [from going!]/Why are you crying and trying to discourage me [IDM] [from going]?) [RHQ] I am willing to be put {[for people] to put me} in prison and also to be killed {[for them] to kill me} in Jerusalem because I [serve] [MTY] the Lord Jesus.”
Ali Pavel odgovorí: Kaj delate, da jokate in mi cepate srce? Kajti jaz nisem le pripravljen zvezan biti, nego tudi umreti v Jeruzalemu za ime Gospoda Jezusa.
14 When [we(exc) realized that] he was determined [to go to Jerusalem], we did not try [any longer] to persuade him [not to go]. We said, “May (the Lord [God] do what he wants/the Lord’s will be done)!”
In ko ga nismo mogli pregovoriti, umolknili smo, rekši: Volja Gospodova naj bo.
15 After those days [in Caesarea], we [(exc)] prepared [our things] and [left to] go [by land] up to Jerusalem.
A po teh dnéh smo se odpravili, in šli smo gor v Jeruzalem.
16 Some of the believers from Caesarea also went with us. [On the way to Jerusalem], we stayed [one night] in the house of [a man whose name was] Mnason. He was from Cyprus [Island], and he had believed [in Jesus] when people were first beginning to hear the message [about him].
Šlo je pa tudi učencev iz Cezareje z nami, kteri so peljali s seboj nekega Mnasona iz Cipra, starega učenca, pri kterem smo imeli gostovati.
17 When we arrived in Jerusalem, [a group of] the believers greeted us happily.
In ko smo prišli v Jeruzalem, sprejeli so nas bratje ljubeznjivo.
18 The next day Paul and the rest of us went to speak with James, [who was the leader of the congregation there]. All of the [other] leaders/elders [of the congregation in Jerusalem] were also there.
A drugi dan je šel Pavel z nami k Jakobu, in prišli so vsi starešine.
19 Paul greeted them, and then he reported all of the things that God had enabled him to do among the non-Jewish people.
In ko se je bil ž njimi pozdravil, razložil je vse po vrsti, kaj je storil Bog med pogani po njegovej službi.
20 When they heard that, James and the other elders said, “Praise the Lord!” Then [one of] them said to Paul, “Brother/Friend, you [(sg)] know that there are very many thousands of us [(inc)] Jewish people [here] who have believed [in the Lord Jesus]. Also, you know that we [(inc)] all continue very carefully to obey the laws [that Moses gave us].
Oni pa, ko so to slišali, slavili so Gospoda; in rekó mu: Vidiš, brat! koliko tisoči Judov je, kteri so sprejeli vero: in vsi so vneti za postavo.
21 [But our fellow Jewish believers] have been told {have heard [people say]} that when you are among non-Jews, you tell the Jewish believers who live there that they should stop obeying [the laws] [MTY] ([of] Moses/[that] Moses [received from God]). [People say that] you tell [those Jewish believers] not to circumcise their sons and not to practice our [other] customs. [We(exc) do not believe that this is true].
Slišali pa so za-te, da učiš odstop od Mojzesa vse Jude, kteri so med pogani, govoreč, naj ne obrezujejo sinov svojih, in da naj se tudi po šegah ne ravnajo.
22 But our fellow [Jewish] believers will certainly hear that you have arrived, [and they will be angry with you]. So [you] need to do something [RHQ] [to show them that what they heard about you is not true].
Kaj bi torej? Množica se bo gotovo zbrala; kajti slišali bodo, da si prišel.
23 So you should do what we suggest to you. There are four men among us who have strongly promised [to God] about [something].
To torej stóri, kar ti povemo: Mi imamo štiri možé, kteri imajo obljubo na sebi;
24 Go with these men [to the Temple] and [ritually] purify yourself along with them. Then, [when it is time for them to offer the sacrifices for that ritual], pay for what they offer [as sacrifices]. After that, they can shave their heads [to show that they have done what they promised to do. And when people see you in the courts of the Temple with those men], they will know that what they have been told {what people have told them} about you is not true. Instead, all of them will know that you obey all our Jewish laws [and rituals].
Té vzemi, in očisti se ž njimi, in plačaj, naj si ostrižejo glave, in vsi bodo zvedeli, da to, kar so za-te slišali, ni res, nego da tudi sam tako živiš, da izpolnjuješ postavo.
25 As for the non-Jewish believers, [we elders here in Jerusalem have talked] about [which of our laws] they [should obey, and] we [(exc)] wrote them [a letter, telling them] what we decided. [We wrote] that they should not eat meat that people have offered as a sacrifice to any idol, [that they should not eat] blood [from animals], and that [they should not eat] meat from animals [that people have killed by] strangling [them. We also told them that] they should not have sex with someone to whom they are not married.”
Za tiste pa, kteri so izmed poganov sprejeli vero, presodili smo mi, in pisali smo, da naj nič takošnega ne izpolnjujejo, razen da naj se varujejo malikom darovanega in krvi in udavljenega in kurbarije.
26 So Paul [agreed to do what they asked], and the next day he took the [four] men, and together they ritually purified themselves. After that, Paul went to the Temple [courts and] told [the priest] what day they would [finish] purifying themselves [ritually] and when [they] would offer [the animals as sacrifices] for each of them.
Tedaj je Pavel vzel možé, in očistivši se ž njimi drugi dan, šel je v tempelj, in naznanjeval je, kedaj se bodo izpolnili dnevi očiščevanja, dokler se ni darovala daritev za vsakega od njih.
27 When the seven days [for purifying themselves] were nearly finished, Paul [returned] to the Temple [courtyard]. Some Jews from Asia [province] saw him there, [and they were very angry at him]. On another day they had seen Paul [walking around] in Jerusalem with Trophimus, who was a non-Jew. Their laws did not permit non-Jews to be in the Temple, and they thought that Paul had brought Trophimus into the Temple [courtyard that day. So] they called out to many other Jews [who were in the Temple courtyard] to [help them] seize [MTY] Paul. They shouted, “Fellow Israelites, come and help [us punish this] man! This is the one who is [constantly] teaching people wherever [he goes that they] should despise the [Jewish] people. [He teaches people that they should no longer obey] the laws [of Moses] nor respect this holy [Temple]. He has even brought non-Jews here into [the court of] our Temple, causing God to consider it no longer holy!”
Ko so se pa sedmeri dnevi imeli izpolniti, nekteri Judje, kteri so prišli iz Azije, ugledavši ga v tempeljnu, nadražijo vse ljudstvo, ter položé roke na-nj,
Kričeč: Možjé Izraelci, pomagajte! Ta je tisti človek, ki zoper ljudstvo in postavo in ta kraj vse povsodi uči; in vrh tega je tudi Grke pripeljal v tempelj, in oskrunil je ta sveti kraj.
(Kajti videli so bili poprej Trofima Efežana ž njim v mestu, za kterega so mislili, da ga je Pavel v tempelj pripeljal.)
30 [People] throughout [MTY] the city heard that there was trouble [at the Temple courtyard], and they came running there. They grabbed Paul and dragged him outside of the Temple [area]. The gates [to the Temple courtyard were shut] {[The Temple guards] shut the doors [to the Temple courts]} immediately, [so that the people would not riot inside the Temple area].
In vse mesto se je vzdignilo, in drlo je ljudstvo skupej; in zgrabivši Pavla, vlekli so ga iz tempeljna: in precej so se vrata zaprla.
31 While they were trying to kill Paul, someone [ran to the fort near the Temple] and told the Roman commander that many [HYP] people [MTY] in Jerusalem were rioting [at the Temple].
Ko so ga pa iskali umoriti, pride glas do jezernika vojaške trume, da se je ves Jeruzalem spuntal.
32 The commander quickly took some officers and [a large group of] soldiers and ran to [the Temple area where] the crowd was. When the crowd of people [who were yelling and beating Paul] saw the commander and the soldiers [coming], they stopped beating him.
In on precej vzeme vojakov in stotnikov, in priteče nad-nje. Ko so pa ugledali jezernika in vojake, nehali so bíti Pavla.
33 The commander came to [where Paul was and] seized him. He [commanded soldiers] to fasten a chain to [each of] Paul’s [arms]. Then he asked [the people in the crowd], “Who is this man, and what has he done?”
Tedaj se jezernik približa in ga prime, in velí ga vkleniti v dve verigi; in vpraša, kdo da je, in kaj da je storil.
34 Some of the many people there were shouting one thing, [and] some were shouting something else. Because they continued shouting so loudly, the commander could not understand [what they were shouting. So] he [commanded] that Paul be taken {[the soldiers] to take Paul} into the barracks [so that he could question him there].
In eni so vpili to, a drugi drugo med ljudstvom. Ko pa ni mogel gotovega zvedeti za voljo hrupa, ukaže ga v grad odpeljati.
35 [The soldiers] led Paul to the steps [of the barracks], but many people continued to follow them, trying to kill [Paul. So the commander told] the soldiers to carry Paul [up the steps into the barracks].
In ko je prišel do stopnic, prigodí se, da so ga morali vojaki nesti za voljo sile ljudstva;
36 The crowd that followed kept shouting, “Kill him! Kill him!”
Kajti šla je za njim množica ljudstva, kričeč: Pogubi ga!
37 As Paul was about to be taken {[the soldiers] were about to take Paul} into the barracks, he said [in Greek] to the commander, “May I speak to you?” The commander said, “(I am surprised that you can speak the Greek [language]!/Can you [(sg)] speak the Greek [language]?)” [RHQ]
In ko je imel vniti v grad Pavel, reče jezerniku: Ali smem nekaj govoriti s teboj? On pa reče: Znaš Grški?
38 “(I [thought] that you [(sg)] were that fellow/Are you not that fellow) from Egypt [RHQ] who wanted to rebel [against the government not long ago], and who took 4,000 violent terrorists [with him] out into the desert, [so that we could not catch him]?”
Nisi li ti tisti Egipčan, ki je pred temi dnevi punt napravil, in izpeljal v puščave štiri tisoči razbojnikov?
39 Paul answered, “[No, I am not!] I am a Jew. I [was born] in Tarsus, which is an important [LIT] city in Cilicia [province]. I ask that you [(sg)] let me speak to the people.”
Pavel pa reče: Jaz sem Jud iz Tarsa, meščan ne neznanega mesta v Ciliciji; prosim pa te, dovoli mi govoriti ljudstvu.
40 Then the commander permitted Paul [to speak. So] Paul stood on the steps and motioned with his hand [for the crowd to be quiet. And after] the people in the crowd became quiet, Paul spoke to them in [their own] Hebrew language [MTY].
In ko mu je dovolil, namigne Pavel z roko ljudstvu, naj umolknejo; in ko je nastala velika tihota, pregovorí v Hebrejskem jeziku, govoreč:
