Acts 1
1 The former account, indeed, I made concerning all things, O Theophilus, that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
hē thiyaphila, yīśuḥ svamanōnītān prēritān pavitrēṇātmanā samādiśya yasmin dinē svargamārōhat yāṁ yāṁ kriyāmakarōt yadyad upādiśacca tāni sarvvāṇi pūrvvaṁ mayā likhitāni|
2 till the day in which, having given command, through the Holy Spirit, to the apostles whom he did choose out, he was taken up,
sa svanidhanaduḥkhabhōgāt param anēkapratyayakṣapramāṇauḥ svaṁ sajīvaṁ darśayitvā
3 to whom also he did present himself alive after his suffering, in many certain proofs, through forty days being seen by them, and speaking the things concerning the reign of God.
catvāriṁśaddināni yāvat tēbhyaḥ prēritēbhyō darśanaṁ dattvēśvarīyarājyasya varṇanama akarōt|
4 And being assembled together with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, [saith he, ] 'Ye did hear of me;
anantaraṁ tēṣāṁ sabhāṁ kr̥tvā ityājñāpayat, yūyaṁ yirūśālamō'nyatra gamanamakr̥tvā yastin pitrāṅgīkr̥tē mama vadanāt kathā aśr̥ṇuta tatprāptim apēkṣya tiṣṭhata|
5 because John, indeed, baptized with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit — after not many days.'
yōhan jalē majjitāvān kintvalpadinamadhyē yūyaṁ pavitra ātmani majjitā bhaviṣyatha|
6 They, therefore, indeed, having come together, were questioning him, saying, 'Lord, dost thou at this time restore the reign to Israel?'
paścāt tē sarvvē militvā tam apr̥cchan hē prabhō bhavān kimidānīṁ punarapi rājyam isrāyēlīyalōkānāṁ karēṣu samarpayiṣyati?
7 and he said unto them, 'It is not yours to know times or seasons that the Father did appoint in His own authority;
tataḥ sōvadat yān sarvvān kālān samayāṁśca pitā svavaśē'sthāpayat tān jñātr̥ṁ yuṣmākam adhikārō na jāyatē|
8 but ye shall receive power at the coming of the Holy Spirit upon you, and ye shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and unto the end of the earth.'
kintu yuṣmāsu pavitrasyātmana āvirbhāvē sati yūyaṁ śaktiṁ prāpya yirūśālami samastayihūdāśōmirōṇadēśayōḥ pr̥thivyāḥ sīmāṁ yāvad yāvantō dēśāstēṣu yarvvēṣu ca mayi sākṣyaṁ dāsyatha|
9 And these things having said — they beholding — he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight;
iti vākyamuktvā sa tēṣāṁ samakṣaṁ svargaṁ nītō'bhavat, tatō mēghamāruhya tēṣāṁ dr̥ṣṭēragōcarō'bhavat|
10 and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on, then, lo, two men stood by them in white apparel,
yasmin samayē tē vihāyasaṁ pratyananyadr̥ṣṭyā tasya tādr̥śam ūrdvvagamanam apaśyan tasminnēva samayē śuklavastrau dvau janau tēṣāṁ sannidhau daṇḍāyamānau kathitavantau,
11 who also said, 'Men, Galileans, why do ye stand gazing into the heaven? this Jesus who was received up from you into the heaven, shall so come in what manner ye saw him going on to the heaven.'
hē gālīlīyalōkā yūyaṁ kimarthaṁ gagaṇaṁ prati nirīkṣya daṇḍāyamānāstiṣṭhatha? yuṣmākaṁ samīpāt svargaṁ nītō yō yīśustaṁ yūyaṁ yathā svargam ārōhantam adarśam tathā sa punaścāgamiṣyati|
12 Then did they return to Jerusalem from the mount that is called of Olives, that is near Jerusalem, a sabbath's journey;
tataḥ paraṁ tē jaitunanāmnaḥ parvvatād viśrāmavārasya pathaḥ parimāṇam arthāt prāyēṇārddhakrōśaṁ durasthaṁ yirūśālamnagaraṁ parāvr̥tyāgacchan|
13 and when they came in, they went up to the upper room, where were abiding both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James, of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zelotes, and Judas, of James;
nagaraṁ praviśya pitarō yākūb yōhan āndriyaḥ philipaḥ thōmā barthajamayō mathirālphīyaputrō yākūb udyōgā śimōn yākūbō bhrātā yihūdā ētē sarvvē yatra sthānē pravasanti tasmin uparitanaprakōṣṭhē prāviśan|
14 these all were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
paścād imē kiyatyaḥ striyaśca yīśō rmātā mariyam tasya bhrātaraścaitē sarvva ēkacittībhūta satataṁ vinayēna vinayēna prārthayanta|
15 And in these days, Peter having risen up in the midst of the disciples, said, (the multitude also of the names at the same place was, as it were, an hundred and twenty, )
tasmin samayē tatra sthānē sākalyēna viṁśatyadhikaśataṁ śiṣyā āsan| tataḥ pitarastēṣāṁ madhyē tiṣṭhan uktavān
16 'Men, brethren, it behoved this Writing that it be fulfilled that beforehand the Holy Spirit spake through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus,
hē bhrātr̥gaṇa yīśudhāriṇāṁ lōkānāṁ pathadarśakō yō yihūdāstasmin dāyūdā pavitra ātmā yāṁ kathāṁ kathayāmāsa tasyāḥ pratyakṣībhavanasyāvaśyakatvam āsīt|
17 because he was numbered among us, and did receive the share in this ministration,
sa janō'smākaṁ madhyavarttī san asyāḥ sēvāyā aṁśam alabhata|
18 this one, indeed, then, purchased a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, and falling headlong, burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed forth,
tadanantaraṁ kukarmmaṇā labdhaṁ yanmūlyaṁ tēna kṣētramēkaṁ krītam aparaṁ tasmin adhōmukhē bhr̥mau patitē sati tasyōdarasya vidīrṇatvāt sarvvā nāḍyō niragacchan|
19 and it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, insomuch that that place is called, in their proper dialect, Aceldama, that is, field of blood,
ētāṁ kathāṁ yirūśālamnivāsinaḥ sarvvē lōkā vidānti; tēṣāṁ nijabhāṣayā tatkṣētrañca hakaldāmā, arthāt raktakṣētramiti vikhyātamāstē|
20 for it hath been written in the book of Psalms: Let his lodging-place become desolate, and let no one be dwelling in it, and his oversight let another take.
anyacca, nikētanaṁ tadīyantu śunyamēva bhaviṣyati| tasya dūṣyē nivāsārthaṁ kōpi sthāsyati naiva hi| anya ēva janastasya padaṁ saṁprāpsyati dhruvaṁ| itthaṁ gītapustakē likhitamāstē|
21 'It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,
atō yōhanō majjanam ārabhyāsmākaṁ samīpāt prabhō ryīśōḥ svargārōhaṇadinaṁ yāvat sōsmākaṁ madhyē yāvanti dināni yāpitavān
22 beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day in which he was received up from us, one of these to become with us a witness of his rising again.'
tāvanti dināni yē mānavā asmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ tiṣṭhanti tēṣām ēkēna janēnāsmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ yīśōrutthānē sākṣiṇā bhavitavyaṁ|
23 And they set two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias,
atō yasya rūḍhi ryuṣṭō yaṁ barśabbētyuktvāhūyanti sa yūṣaph matathiśca dvāvētau pr̥thak kr̥tvā ta īśvarasya sannidhau prāryya kathitavantaḥ,
24 and having prayed, they said, 'Thou, Lord, who art knowing the heart of all, shew which one thou didst choose of these two
hē sarvvāntaryyāmin paramēśvara, yihūdāḥ sēvanaprēritatvapadacyutaḥ
25 to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship, from which Judas, by transgression, did fall, to go on to his proper place;'
san nijasthānam agacchat, tatpadaṁ labdhum ēnayō rjanayō rmadhyē bhavatā kō'bhirucitastadasmān darśyatāṁ|
26 and they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
tatō guṭikāpāṭē kr̥tē matathirniracīyata tasmāt sōnyēṣām ēkādaśānāṁ praritānāṁ madhyē gaṇitōbhavat|
