사도행전 12
1 그 때에 헤롯 왕이 손을 들어 교회 중 몇 사람을 해하려 하여
Now, about that time, Herod the king made cruel attacks on the Christians.
2 요한의 형제 야고보를 칼로 죽이니
And he put James, the brother of John, to death with the sword.
3 유대인들이 이 일을 기뻐하는 것을 보고 베드로도 잡으려 할새 때는 무교절일이라
And when he saw that this was pleasing to the Jews he went on to take Peter in addition. This was at the time of the feast of unleavened bread.
4 잡으매 옥에 가두어 군사 넷씩인 네 패에게 맡겨 지키고 유월절 후에 백성 앞에 끌어 내고자 하더라
And having taken him, he put him in prison, with four bands of armed men to keep watch over him; his purpose being to take him out to the people after the Passover.
5 이에 베드로는 옥에 갇혔고 교회는 그를 위하여 간절히 하나님께 빌더라
So Peter was kept in prison: but the church made strong prayer to God for him.
6 헤롯이 잡아 내려고 하는 그 전날 밤에 베드로가 두 군사 틈에서 두 쇠사슬에 매여 누워 자는데 파수군들이 문 밖에서 옥을 지키더니
And when Herod was about to take him out, the same night Peter was sleeping in chains between two armed men, and the watchmen were keeping watch before the door of the prison.
7 홀연히 주의 사자가 곁에 서매 옥중에 광채가 조요하며 또 베드로의 옆구리를 쳐 깨워 가로되 `급히 일어나라' 하니 쇠사슬이 그 손에서 벗어지더라
And a great light was seen shining in the room, and an angel of the Lord came to Peter and, touching him on his side so that he came out of his sleep, said, Get up quickly. And his chains came off his hands.
8 천사가 가로되 `띠를 띠고 신을 들메라' 하거늘 베드로가 그대로 하니 천사가 또 가로되 `겉옷을 입고 따라 오라' 한대
Then the angel said, Put on your shoes and get ready to go. And he did so. And he said, Put your coat round you and come with me.
9 베드로가 나와서 따라갈새 천사의 하는 것이 참인 줄 알지 못하고 환상을 보는가 하니라
And he went out after him; and he was not certain if what was done by the angel was a fact, for it seemed to him that he was seeing a vision.
10 이에 첫째와 둘째 파수를 지나 성으로 통한 쇠문에 이르니 문이 절로 열리는지라 나와 한 거리를 지나매 천사가 곧 떠나더라
And when they had gone past the first and second watchmen they came to the iron door into the town, which came open by itself: and they went out and down one street; and then the angel went away.
11 이에 베드로가 정신이 나서 가로되 `내가 이제야 참으로 주께서 그의 천사를 보내어 나를 헤롯의 손과 유대 백성의 모든 기대에서 벗어나게 하신 줄 알겠노라' 하여
And when Peter came to his senses he said, Now, truly, I am certain that the Lord has sent his angel and taken me out of the hands of Herod, against all the hopes of the Jews.
12 깨닫고 마가라 하는 요한의 어머니 마리아의 집에 가니 여러 사람이 모여 기도하더라
And when he became clear about this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John named Mark, where a number of them had come together for prayer.
13 베드로가 대문을 두드린대 로데라 하는 계집아이가 영접하러 나왔다가
And he gave a blow on the door, and a young girl came to it, named Rhoda.
14 베드로의 음성인 줄 알고 기뻐하여 문을 미처 열지 못하고 달려 들어가 말하되 `베드로가 대문 밖에 섰더라' 하니
And hearing the voice of Peter, in her joy she went running, without opening the door, to say that Peter was outside.
15 저희가 말하되 `네가 미쳤다' 하나 계집아이는 힘써 말하되 `참말이라' 하니 저희가 말하되 `그러면 그의 천사라' 하더라
And they said to her, You are off your head. But still she said, with decision, that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.
16 베드로가 문 두드리기를 그치지 아니하니 저희가 문을 열어 베드로를 보고 놀라는지라
But Peter went on giving blows on the door: and when it was open and they saw him, they were full of wonder.
17 베드로가 저희에게 손짓하여 종용하게 하고 주께서 자기를 이끌어 옥에서 나오게 하던 일을 말하고 또 야고보와 형제들에게 이 말을 전하라 하고 떠나 다른 곳으로 가니라
But he made a sign to them with his hand to be quiet, and gave them an account of how the Lord had taken him out of prison. And he said, Give the news to James and the brothers. And then he went away.
18 날이 새매 군사들은 베드로가 어떻게 되었는지 알지 못하여 적지 않게 소동하니
Now when it was day, the armed men were greatly troubled about what had become of Peter.
19 헤롯이 그를 찾아도 보지 못하매 파숫군들을 심문하고 죽이라 명하니라 헤롯이 유대를 떠나 가이사랴로 내려가서 거하니라
And Herod, when he sent for him, and he was not there, after questioning the watchmen, gave orders that they were to be put to death. Then he went down from Judaea to Caesarea for a time.
20 헤롯이 두로와 시돈 사람들을 대단히 노여워하나 저희 지방이 왕국에서 나는 양식을 쓰는고로 일심으로 그에게 나아와 왕의 침소맡은 신하 블라스도를 친하여 화목하기를 청한지라
Now he was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon: and they came to him, all together, and having made friends with Blastus, the controller of the king's house, they made a request for peace, because their country was dependent on the king's country for its food.
21 헤롯이 날을 택하여 왕복을 입고 위에 앉아 백성을 효유한대
And on the day which had been fixed, Herod, dressed in his robes and seated in his place, made a public statement to them.
22 백성들이 크게 부르되 이것은 신의 소리요 사람의 소리는 아니라 하거늘
And the people, with loud cries, said, It is the voice of a god, not of a man.
23 헤롯이 영광을 하나님께로 돌리지 아니하는고로 주의 사자가 곧 치니 충이 먹어 죽으니라
And straight away the angel of the Lord sent a disease on him, because he did not give the glory to God: and his flesh was wasted away by worms, and so he came to his end.
24 하나님의 말씀은 흥왕하여 더하더라
But the word of the Lord went on increasing.
25 바나바와 사울이 부조의 일을 마치고 마가라 하는 요한을 데리고 예루살렘에서 돌아오니라
And Barnabas and Saul came back from Jerusalem, when their work was ended, taking with them John named Mark.
