प्रेरितों के काम 11
1 फेर प्रेरितां अर बिश्वासी भाईयाँ नै जो यहूदिया परदेस म्ह थे सुण्या के गैर यहूदियाँ नै भी परमेसवर का वचन मान लिया सै।
Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
2 आखर म्ह जिब पतरस यरुशलेम नगर म्ह आया, तो खतना किये होए आदमी उसतै बहस करण लाग्गे,
So when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision faction began disputing with him,
3 “तन्नै खतनारहित आदमियाँ कै उरै जाकै उनकै गेल्या खाया।”
saying, “Yoʋ went into the house of uncircumcised men and ate with them!”
4 फेर पतरस नै उन ताहीं शरु तै आखर ताहीं सारा किमे कह सुणाया
But Peter began to explain the situation to them, step by step, saying,
5 “मै याफा नगर म्ह प्रार्थना करण लागरया था, अर बेसुध होकै एक दर्शन देख्या के एक बड्डी चाद्दर च्यारु कुणयां तै लटकदी होई, अकास तै उतरकै मेरै धोरै आई।”
“I was praying in the city of Joppa, and in a trance I saw a vision of an object like a large sheet coming down, being lowered from heaven by its four corners, and it came to me.
6 जिब मन्नै उसपै गौर करया, तो उस म्ह धरती के चार पैरां आळे अर बणपशु अर रेंगण आळे जिनोर अर अकास के पंछी देक्खे,
As I stared at it, I looked closely and saw four-footed animals of the earth, as well as wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the sky.
7 अर यो बोल भी सुण्या, “हे पतरस उठ, मार अर खा।”
Then I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter, kill and eat.’
8 मन्नै कह्या, “ना प्रभु, ना, क्यूँके कोए अशुद्ध चीज मेरै मुँह म्ह कदे न्ही गई।”
But I said, ‘Surely not, Lord! For nothing defiled or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’
9 इसकै जवाब म्ह अकास तै दुसरी बर आवाज होई, “जो किमे परमेसवर नै शुद्ध ठैहराया सै, उस ताहीं अशुद्ध मतना कहवै।”
The voice from heaven responded to me a second time: ‘Do not regard as defiled what God has made clean.’
10 तीन बर इसा होया, फेर सारा किमे दुबारा अकास पै खींच लिया गया।
This happened three times, and then everything was drawn up again into heaven.
11 जिब्बे तीन माणस जो कुरनेलियुस नै कैसरिया परदेस तै मेरै धोरै भेज्जे थे, उस घर पै जिसम्ह हम थे, आण खड़े होए।
And behold, at that very moment three men arrived at the house where I was; they had been sent to me from Caesarea.
12 फेर पवित्र आत्मा नै मेरै तै बेझिझक होकै उनकै गेल्या जाण खात्तर कह्या, अर छ: भाई भी मेरै गेल्या हो लिये, अर हम उस माणस कै घरां गये।
The Spirit told me to go with them without any misgivings. These six brothers also went with me, and we went into the man's house.
13 उसनै म्हारै ताहीं बताया, के उसनै एक सुर्गदूत ताहीं अपणे घर म्ह खड्या देख्या, जिसनै उसतै कह्या, “याफा नगर म्ह माणस भेजकै शमौन ताहीं जो पतरस कुह्वावै सै, बुलवा ले।
He told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house and saying to him, ‘Send men to Joppa and have them bring back Simon, who is called Peter;
14 वो थारे तै इसी बात कहवैगा, जिनकै जरिये तू अर तेरा सारा घराना उद्धार पावैगा।”
he will speak a message to yoʋ by which yoʋ will be saved, yoʋ and yoʋr entire household.’
15 जिब म्ह बात करण लाग्या, तो पवित्र आत्मा उनपै उस्से तरियां तै उतरया जिस तरियां तै शरु म्ह म्हारै पै उतरया था।
As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, just as he had fallen upon us at the beginning.
16 फेर मन्नै प्रभु का यो वचन याद आया, जो उसनै कह्या था, “यूहन्ना नै तो पाणी तै बपतिस्मा दिया, पर थम पवित्र आत्मा तै बपतिस्मा पाओगे।
Then I remembered what the Lord had said: ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’
17 इस खात्तर जिब परमेसवर नै उन ताहीं भी वोए दान दिया, जो म्हारै ताहीं प्रभु यीशु मसीह पै बिश्वास करण तै मिल्या था, तो मै कौण था जो परमेसवर नै रोक सकदा?”
If then God gave them the same gift that he gave us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, how could I stand in God's way?”
18 यो सुणण कै बाद उसके जवाब म्ह वे यहूदी बिश्वासी कुछ भी न्ही बोल पाए, अर परमेसवर की बड़ाई करकै कहण लाग्गे, “फेर तो परमेसवर नै गैर यहूदियाँ ताहीं भी अनन्त जीवन कै खात्तर पापां की माफी अर यीशु मसीह पै बिश्वास करण का दान दिया सै।”
When the apostles and brothers heard this, they ceased their objections and began glorifying God, saying, “Then to the Gentiles also God has granted the repentance that leads to life.”
19 जो आदमी उस क्ळेश के मारे जो स्तिफनुस कै कारण पड्या था, खिंड-मिंड हो गये थे, वे हांडदे-हांडदे फीनीके परदेस अर साइप्रस टापू अर अन्ताकिया नगर म्ह पोहचे, पर यहूदियाँ नै छोड़ किसे और ताहीं वचन कोनी सुणावै थे।
Now those who had been scattered because of the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews.
20 पर उन म्ह तै कुछ बिश्वासी साइप्रस टापू अर कुरेनवासी थे, जो अन्ताकिया नगर म्ह आकै यूनानियाँ ताहीं भी प्रभु यीशु का सुसमाचार सुणाण लाग्गे।
But there were some Cypriot and Cyrenian men among them who went to Antioch and began speaking to the Hellenists, preaching the good news about the Lord Jesus.
21 प्रभु का हाथ उनपै था, अर घणे आदमी बिश्वास करकै प्रभु की ओड़ फिरे।
The hand of the Lord was with them, and a large number of people believed and turned to the Lord.
22 जिब उनका जिक्र यरुशलेम नगर की कलीसिया के लोग्गां कै सुणण म्ह आया, तो उननै बरनबास ताहीं अन्ताकिया नगर भेज्या।
News of this reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas out to go to Antioch.
23 वो उड़ै पोहचकै अर परमेसवर के अनुग्रह नै देखकै राज्जी होया, अर सारया ताहीं उपदेश दिया के तन-मन लगाकै प्रभु तै लिपटे रहो।
When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he rejoiced and began exhorting all the believers to remain true to the Lord with resolute hearts.
24 वो एक भला माणस था, अर पवित्र आत्मा अर बिश्वास तै पूरा भरया था, अर दुसरे घणखरे आदमी प्रभु म्ह आ मिले।
For he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a large number of people were added to the Lord.
25 फेर वो शाऊल नै टोह्ण कै खात्तर तरसुस नगर म्ह चल्या गया।
Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul.
26 जिब वो उसतै मिल्या तो उस ताहीं अन्ताकिया नगर ल्याया, अर इसा होया के वे एक साल ताहीं कलीसिया कै गेल्या मिलदे अर प्रभु यीशु मसीह का घणे आदमियाँ ताहीं उपदेश देन्दे रहे, अर चेल्लें सारया तै पैहल्या अन्ताकिया नगर ए म्ह मसीह कुहाए।
When he found him, he brought him to Antioch. So for an entire year they met with the church and taught a large number of people, and it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians.
27 उननै दिनां म्ह कई नबी यरुशलेम नगर तै अन्ताकिया नगर आए।
In those days some prophets came down to Antioch from Jerusalem.
28 उन म्ह तै अगबुस नामक एक नबी नै खड़े होकै आत्मा की प्रेरणा तै न्यू बताया के सारी दुनिया म्ह बड्ड़ा अकाळ पड़ैगा, वो अकाळ (रोम के सम्राट) क्लौदियुस के बखत म्ह पड्या।
One of them, named Agabus, stood up and indicated by the Spirit that a severe famine was about to come upon the entire world (which indeed took place in the time of Claudius Caesar).
29 फेर चेल्यां नै फैसला लिया के हरेक अपणी-अपणी पूंजी कै मुताबिक यहूदिया परदेस म्ह रहण आळे भाईयाँ की मदद कै खात्तर किमे भेज्जै।
So the disciples, each according to his own ability, determined to send relief to the brothers who dwelt in Judea.
30 उननै इस तरियां ए करया, अर बरनबास अर शाऊल कै हाथ कलीसिया के अगुवां कै धोरै कुछ भेज दिया।
This they did, sending it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
