Acts 28
1 After we [(exc)] had arrived safely [on the shore], we learned that it was an island called Malta.
A tak zachováni byvše, teprv poznali, že ostrov ten sloul Melita.
2 The people who lived there received us kindly. They lit a fire and invited us to come and warm ourselves, because it was raining and it was cold.
Lidé pak toho ostrova velikou přívětivost k nám ukázali. Nebo zapálivše hranici drev, přijali nás všecky, pro déšť, kterýž v tu chvíli byl, a pro zimu.
3 Paul gathered some sticks and put them on the fire. But [among those sticks was] a snake that had come out [from the fire to escape] from the heat, and it fastened itself on Paul’s hand.
A když Pavel sebral drahně roždí, a kladl na oheň, ještěrka, utíkajíc před horkem, připjala se k ruce jeho.
4 [The islanders knew that the snake was poisonous, so] when they saw it hanging from Paul’s hand, they said to each other, “Probably this man has murdered someone. Although he has escaped from being drowned, [the god] ([who] pays [people back/who punishes people]) for their [MTY] sins will cause him to die.”
A když uzřeli lidé toho ostrova, ano ještěrka visí u ruky jeho, řekli jedni druhým: Jistě člověk tento jest vražedlník; nebo ač z moře vyšel, však pomsta nedá jemu živu býti.
5 But Paul simply shook the snake off into the fire, and nothing happened to him.
Ale on střásl tu ještěrku do ohně, a nic se jemu zlého nestalo.
6 The people were expecting that Paul’s body would soon swell up or that he would suddenly fall down and die. But after they had waited a long time, they saw [that the snake] had not harmed him [at all]. So then the people changed their minds and said [to one another], “This man is not a murderer! Probably he is a god!”
Oni pak očekávali, že oteče, aneb padna, pojednou umře. A když toho dlouho čekali a viděli, že se mu nic zlého nestalo, změnivše se, pravili, že jest on bůh.
7 Near where the people had made the fire, there were some fields that belonged to a man whose name was Publius. He was the chief official on the island. He invited us to [come and stay in] his home. He took care of us for three days.
Na těch pak místech měl popluží kníže toho ostrova, jménem Publius. Kterýž přijav nás k sobě, za tři dni přátelsky u sebe v hospodě choval.
8 [At that time] Publius’ father had a fever and dysentery, and he was lying [in bed]. So Paul visited him and prayed [for him. Then] Paul placed his hands on him and healed him.
I přihodilo se, že otec toho Publia ležel, maje zimnici a červenou nemoc. K němuž všed Pavel, a pomodliv se, vložil na něj ruce, a uzdravil jej.
9 After Paul had done that, the other people on the island who were sick came [to him] and [he] healed them, too.
A když se to stalo, tedy jiní, kteříž na ostrově tom nemocní byli, přistupovali, a byli uzdravováni.
10 They brought us gifts and [showed in other ways that] they greatly respected us. When we were [ready] to leave [three months later], they brought us food and other things that we would need [for the trip].
Ctili nás pak velice, a když jsme se měli pryč plaviti, nakladli toho, čehož potřebí bylo.
11 After [we had stayed there] three months, we [got on] a ship [that was going to Italy and] sailed away. The ship had been in [a harbor on] the island during the months when there are many storms. It had come from Alexandria [city]. On the front of the ship there were carved images of the twin gods [whose names were Castor and Pollux].
A po třech měsících plavili jsme se na bárce Alexandrinské, kteráž tu byla na tom ostrově přes zimu, mající za erb Kastora a Polluxa.
12 We [sailed from the island and] arrived at Syracuse [city on Sicily island] and stayed there three days.
A když jsme přijeli do Syrakusis, zůstali jsme tu za tři dni.
13 Then we traveled on by ship and arrived at Rhegium [port in Italy]. The next day, the wind was blowing from behind us, [so we sailed along fast]. The day after that, we reached Puteoli [town, where we left the ship].
A odtud okolo plavíce se, přišli jsme do Regium; a po jednom dni, když vál vítr od poledne, druhý den přijeli jsme do Puteolos.
14 In Puteoli we met some believers who invited us to stay with them for a week. [After visiting them], we [left there and started to travel by land] to Rome.
Kdežto nalezše bratří, žádáni jsme byli od nich, abychom pobyli u nich za sedm dní. A tak jsme se k Římu brali.
15 [A group of] believers [who lived in Rome] had heard that we [(exc) were coming]. So they came out [from Rome] to meet us. [Some of] them met us at [the town called] ‘The Market on Appian [Road’, ] and others met us at [the town called] ‘The Three Inns’. When Paul saw those believers, he thanked God and was encouraged.
Odkudž, když o nás uslyšeli bratří, vyšli proti nám až na rynk Appiův a ke Třem krčmám. Kteréž uzřev Pavel, poděkoval Bohu, a počal býti dobré mysli.
16 After we [(exc)] arrived in Rome, Paul was permitted {[a Roman official who was responsible for guarding Paul] permitted Paul} to live [in a house] by himself. But [there was always] a soldier there to guard him.
A když jsme přišli do Říma, setník dal vězně v moc hejtmanu vojska, ale Pavlovi dopuštěno, aby sám bydlil s žoldnéřem, kterýž ho ostříhal.
17 After [Paul had been there] three days, he sent a message to the Jewish leaders [to come and talk with him. So] they came, and Paul said to them, “My fellow Jews, although I have not opposed our people nor spoken against the customs of our ancestors, [our leaders] in Jerusalem [seized] [MTY] [me. But before they could kill me, a Roman commander rescued me and later sent me] to Caesarea for Roman [authorities/officials to put me on trial].
I stalo se po třech dnech, svolal Pavel přední z Židů. A když se sešli, řekl jim: Muži bratří, já nic neučiniv proti lidu ani proti obyčejům otcovským, jat jsa z Jeruzaléma, vydán jsem v ruce Římanům.
18 The Roman authorities/officials questioned me and wanted to release me, because I had not done any [bad] thing for which I should be executed {they should kill me}.
Kteříž vyslyševše mne, chtěli propustiti, proto že žádné viny hodné smrti na mně nebylo.
19 But when the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] there opposed [what the Roman authorities wanted to do], I had to formally request that the Emperor [judge me here in Rome]. But my reason for doing that was not that I wanted to accuse our leaders about anything.
Ale když Židé odpírali, přinucen jsem odvolati se k císaři, ne jako bych měl co na svůj národ žalovati.
20 So I have requested you [to come] here so that I can tell you why I am a prisoner. It is because I believe in [MTY] our Messiah, the one [God long ago promised to send] to us [(inc)] Jews.”
A protož z té příčiny povolal jsem vás, abych vás viděl, a s vámi promluvil; nebo pro naději lidu Izraelského řetězem tímto svázán jsem.
21 Then [the Jewish leaders] said, “We [(exc)] have not received any letters from [our fellow Jews] in Judea about you. Also, none of our fellow Jews who have arrived [here from Judea] has said anything bad about you.
A oni řekli jemu: Myť jsme žádného psání neměli o tobě z Židovstva, aniž kdo z bratří přijda, vypravoval neb mluvil co zlého o tobě.
22 But we [(exc)] want to hear what you [(sg)] think about this [Christian] sect/group, because we know that in many places [HYP] bad things are being said {people are saying bad things} about it.”
Ale žádámeť od tebe slyšeti, jak smyslíš; nebo víme o té sektě, že se jí všudy odpírá.
23 So they [talked with Paul and decided that they would come back on another day to hear him. When that day arrived], those Jews came back to the place where Paul was staying, and they brought more Jews with them. Paul talked to them from morning until evening. He talked to them about how God wants to rule [people’s lives] [MET]. He tried to convince them that Jesus [is the Messiah] by reminding them what Moses and the other prophets had written [MTY].
A když jemu uložili den, sešlo se jich mnoho do hospody k němu, jimž s osvědčováním vypravoval o království Božím, slouže jim k víře o Ježíšovi z zákona Mojžíšova a proroků, od jitra až do večera.
24 Some of those Jews believed that what was said [by Paul] {what [Paul] said} about Jesus [was true], but others did not believe [that it was true].
A někteří uvěřili tomu, což vypravoval, někteří pak nevěřili.
25 So they began to argue with one another. [Paul realized that some of them did not want to listen to him, so] when they were about to leave, he said, “The Holy Spirit said something to your/our(incl) ancestors. He spoke these words to Isaiah the prophet, [and what he said is also true about you]:
A tak nejsouce mezi sebou svorní, rozešli se, když promluvil Pavel to jedno slovo: Jistě žeť dobře Duch svatý skrze proroka Izaiáše mluvil k otcům našim,
26 Go to your fellow Israelites and tell them, ‘You repeatedly listen [to the message of God], but you never understand [what God is saying]. You repeatedly look at and see [the things that God is doing], but you never understand [what they mean].
Řka: Jdi k lidu tomuto a rci jim: Slyšením slyšeti budete, ale nesrozumíte, a hledíce, hleděti budete, ale neuzříte.
27 God also said to the prophet, These people do not understand, because they have become stubborn. They have ears, but they do not understand what they hear, and they have closed their eyes [because they do not want to see]. If they wanted to obey what I say to them, they might understand what they see [me doing] and what they hear [me saying]. Then they might turn from their sinful behavior and I would save them.’
Nebo zhrublo srdce lidu tohoto, a ušima těžce slyšeli, a oči své zamhouřili, aby snad neviděli očima, a ušima neslyšeli, a srdcem nesrozuměli, a neobrátili se, abych jich neuzdravil.
28 [That is what God said to the prophet Isaiah about our ancestors. But you Jews today do not want to believe God’s message]. Therefore, I am telling you that [God] has sent to the non-Jews this message about how he saves people, and they will listen [and accept it]!”
Budiž vám tedy známo, že jest pohanům posláno toto spasení Boží, a oniť slyšeti budou.
A když on to propověděl, odešli Židé, majíce mezi sebou hádky mnohé.
30 For two whole years Paul stayed [there] in a house that he rented. Many people came to see him, and he received them all gladly [and talked with them].
Pavel pak trval za celé dvě létě v hospodě své, a přijímal všecky, kteříž přicházeli k němu,
31 He preached [and taught people] about how God could rule [their lives] [MET] and taught them about the Lord Jesus Christ. He did that without being afraid, and no one tried to stop him.
Káže o království Božím, a uče těm věcem, kteréž jsou o Pánu Ježíši Kristu, se vší doufanlivostí bez překážky.
