Teot 2
1 Ja kun helluntaipäivä oli tullut, olivat he kaikki yhdessä koolla.
On the day when [the Jews were celebrating the] Pentecost [festival], the [believers] were all together in one place [in Jerusalem].
2 Ja tuli yhtäkkiä humaus taivaasta, niinkuin olisi käynyt väkevä tuulispää, ja täytti koko huoneen, jossa he istuivat.
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.
3 Ja he näkivät ikäänkuin tulisia kieliä, jotka jakaantuivat ja asettuivat heidän itsekunkin päälle.
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.
4 Ja he tulivat kaikki Pyhällä Hengellä täytetyiksi ja alkoivat puhua muilla kielillä, sen mukaan mitä Henki heille puhuttavaksi antoi.
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].
5 Ja Jerusalemissa asui juutalaisia, jumalaapelkääväisiä miehiä, kaikkinaisista kansoista, mitä taivaan alla on.
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.
6 Ja kun tämä ääni kuului, niin kokoontui paljon kansaa; ja he tulivat ymmälle, sillä kukin kuuli heidän puhuvan hänen omaa kieltänsä.
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.
7 Ja he hämmästyivät ja ihmettelivät sanoen: "Katso, eivätkö nämä kaikki, jotka puhuvat, ole galilealaisia?
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].
8 Kuinka me sitten kuulemme kukin sen maan kieltä, jossa olemme syntyneet?
([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]
9 Me parttilaiset ja meedialaiset ja eelamilaiset ja me, jotka asumme Mesopotamiassa, Juudeassa ja Kappadokiassa, Pontossa ja Aasiassa,
[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.
10 Frygiassa ja Pamfyliassa, Egyptissä ja Kyrenen puoleisen Liibyan alueilla, ja täällä oleskelevat roomalaiset, juutalaiset ja käännynnäiset,
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.
11 kreetalaiset ja arabialaiset, me kuulemme kukin heidän puhuvan omalla kielellämme Jumalan suuria tekoja."
[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?”
12 Ja he olivat kaikki hämmästyksissään eivätkä tienneet, mitä ajatella, ja sanoivat toinen toisellensa: "Mitä tämä mahtaakaan olla?"
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?”
13 Mutta toiset pilkkasivat heitä ja sanoivat: "He ovat täynnä makeata viiniä".
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!”
14 Niin Pietari astui esiin niiden yhdentoista kanssa, korotti äänensä ja puhui heille: "Miehet, juutalaiset ja kaikki Jerusalemissa asuvaiset, olkoon tämä teille tiettävä, ja ottakaa minun sanani korviinne.
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!
15 Eivät nämä ole juovuksissa, niinkuin te luulette; sillä nyt on vasta kolmas hetki päivästä.
[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!
16 Vaan tämä on se, mikä on sanottu profeetta Jooelin kautta:
Instead, [what has happened to us is] the [miraculous] thing that the prophet Joel wrote about [long ago]. [Joel wrote]: God says,
17 'Ja on tapahtuva viimeisinä päivinä, sanoo Jumala, että minä vuodatan Henkeni kaiken lihan päälle, ja teidän poikanne ja tyttärenne ennustavat, ja nuorukaisenne näkyjä näkevät, ja vanhuksenne unia uneksuvat.
‘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].
18 Ja myös palvelijaini ja palvelijattarieni päälle minä niinä päivinä vuodatan Henkeni, ja he ennustavat.
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.
19 Ja minä annan näkyä ihmeitä ylhäällä taivaalla ja merkkejä alhaalla maan päällä, verta ja tulta ja savupatsaita.
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].
20 Aurinko muuttuu pimeydeksi ja kuu vereksi, ennenkuin Herran päivä tulee, se suuri ja julkinen.
[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].
21 Ja on tapahtuva, että jokainen, joka huutaa avuksi Herran nimeä, pelastuu.'
[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].}’”
22 Te Israelin miehet, kuulkaa nämä sanat: Jeesuksen, Nasaretilaisen, sen miehen, josta Jumala todisti teille voimallisilla teoilla ja ihmeillä ja merkeillä, joita Jumala hänen kauttansa teki teidän keskellänne, niinkuin te itse tiedätte,
[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].
23 hänet, joka teille luovutettiin, Jumalan ennaltamäärätyn päätöksen ja edeltätietämyksen mukaan, te laista tietämättömien miesten kätten kautta naulitsitte ristille ja tapoitte.
[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.
24 Hänet Jumala herätti ja päästi kuoleman kivuista, niinkuin ei ollutkaan mahdollista, että kuolema olisi voinut hänet pitää.
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.”
25 Sillä Daavid sanoo hänestä: 'Minä näen alati edessäni Herran, sillä hän on minun oikealla puolellani, etten horjahtaisi.
“[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].
26 Sentähden minun sydämeni iloitsee ja kieleni riemuitsee, ja myös minun ruumiini on lepäävä toivossa;
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]).
27 sillä sinä et hylkää minun sieluani tuonelaan etkä salli Pyhäsi nähdä katoavaisuutta. (Hadēs g86)
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)
28 Sinä teet minulle tiettäviksi elämän tiet, sinä täytät minut ilolla kasvojesi edessä.'
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].”
29 Te miehet, veljet, on lupa teille rohkeasti sanoa, mitä kantaisäämme Daavidiin tulee, että hän on sekä kuollut että haudattu; onhan hänen hautansa meidän keskellämme vielä tänäkin päivänä.
[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.
30 Koska hän nyt oli profeetta ja tiesi, että Jumala oli valalla vannoen hänelle luvannut asettavansa hänen kupeittensa hedelmän hänen valtaistuimelleen,
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].)
31 niin hän edeltä nähden puhui Kristuksen ylösnousemuksesta, sanoen, ettei Kristus ollut jäävä hyljätyksi tuonelaan eikä hänen ruumiinsa näkevä katoavaisuutta. (Hadēs g86)
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)
32 Tämän Jeesuksen on Jumala herättänyt, minkä todistajia me kaikki olemme.
“[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.
33 Koska hän siis on Jumalan oikean käden voimalla korotettu ja on Isältä saanut Pyhän Hengen lupauksen, on hän vuodattanut sen, minkä te nyt näette ja kuulette.
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.
34 Sillä ei Daavid ole astunut ylös taivaisiin, vaan hän sanoo itse: 'Herra sanoi minun Herralleni: Istu minun oikealle puolelleni,
[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,
35 kunnes minä panen sinun vihollisesi sinun jalkojesi astinlaudaksi.'
while I completely defeat [MTY] your enemies.’”
36 Varmasti tietäköön siis koko Israelin huone, että Jumala on hänet Herraksi ja Kristukseksi tehnyt, tämän Jeesuksen, jonka te ristiinnaulitsitte."
[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.”
37 Kun he tämän kuulivat, saivat he piston sydämeensä ja sanoivat Pietarille ja muille apostoleille: "Miehet, veljet, mitä meidän pitää tekemän?"
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]?”
38 Niin Pietari sanoi heille: "Tehkää parannus ja ottakoon kukin teistä kasteen Jeesuksen Kristuksen nimeen syntienne anteeksisaamiseksi, niin te saatte Pyhän Hengen lahjan.
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.
39 Sillä teille ja teidän lapsillenne tämä lupaus on annettu ja kaikille, jotka kaukana ovat, ketkä ikinä Herra, meidän Jumalamme, kutsuu."
[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]!”
40 Ja monilla muillakin sanoilla hän vakaasti todisti; ja hän kehoitti heitä sanoen: "Antakaa pelastaa itsenne tästä nurjasta sukupolvesta".
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]!”
41 Jotka nyt ottivat hänen sanansa vastaan, ne kastettiin, ja niin heitä lisääntyi sinä päivänä noin kolmetuhatta sielua.
So the people who believed Peter’s message were baptized. There were about 3,000 [SYN] [who] joined the group [of believers] that day.
42 Ja he pysyivät apostolien opetuksessa ja keskinäisessä yhteydessä ja leivän murtamisessa ja rukouksissa.
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].
43 Ja jokaiselle sielulle tuli pelko; ja monta ihmettä ja tunnustekoa tapahtui apostolien kautta.
All the people [SYN] [who were in Jerusalem] were greatly revering [God because] the apostles were frequently doing many kinds of miraculous things.
44 Ja kaikki, jotka uskoivat, olivat yhdessä ja pitivät kaikkea yhteisenä,
All of those who believed [in Jesus] were united [and regularly met] together. They were also sharing everything that they had with one another.
45 ja he myivät maansa ja tavaransa ja jakelivat kaikille, sen mukaan kuin kukin tarvitsi.
[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.
46 Ja he olivat alati, joka päivä, yksimielisesti pyhäkössä ja mursivat kodeissa leipää ja nauttivat ruokansa riemulla ja sydämen yksinkertaisuudella,
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.
47 kiittäen Jumalaa ja ollen kaiken kansan suosiossa. Ja Herra lisäsi heidän yhteyteensä joka päivä niitä, jotka saivat pelastuksen.
[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].
