Apustuļu Darbi 1
1 Tos pirmos stāstus es gan esmu stāstījis par visu, mans Teofil, ko Jēzus ir iesācis darīt un mācīt,
THE former treatise, Theophilus, I composed, concerning all things which Jesus began both to do and to teach,
2 Līdz tai dienai, kad Viņš tapa uzņemts un tiem apustuļiem, ko Viņš izredzējis, pavēles bija devis caur Svēto Garu.
until that day, when having given a charge to his apostles through the Holy Ghost, whom he had chosen, he was taken up:
3 Tiem Viņš arīdzan pēc Savas ciešanas caur daudz skaidrām zīmēm Pats dzīvs bija parādījies, no tiem četrdesmit dienas redzēts un uz tiem runādams par Dieva valstības lietām.
to whom also he had shewed himself alive, after he had suffered, by many infallible proofs, during forty days being frequently seen by them, and speaking of the things which relate to the kingdom of God:
4 Un kad Viņš tos bija sapulcinājis, tad Viņš tiem pavēlēja, neatstāties no Jeruzālemes, bet gaidīt uz Tā Tēva apsolīšanu, ko jūs no manis esat dzirdējuši (tā Viņš sacīja);
and assembling them together, commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, said he, ye have heard from me.
5 Jo Jānis gan ir kristījis ar ūdeni, bet jūs tapsiet kristīti ar Svēto Garu ne ilgi pēc šīm dienām.
For John indeed baptised with water; but ye shall be baptised with the Holy Ghost not many days after the present.
6 Tad nu tie, kas bija kopā nākuši, Viņam vaicāja sacīdami: “Kungs, vai Tu šinī laikā atkal uzcelsi Israēla valstību?”
They then accordingly assembling together, asked him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time reestablish the kingdom of Israel?
7 Bet Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Jums nepieklājās zināt tos laikus jeb brīžus, ko Tas Tēvs Savā paša varā nolicis.
But he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times and the seasons, which the Father hath reserved under his own authority.
8 Bet jūs dabūsiet spēku, kad Tas Svētais Gars pār jums būs nācis, un būsiet Mani liecinieki tā Jeruzālemē, kā arī visā Jūdu zemē un Samarijā un līdz pat pasaules galam.”
But ye shall receive power, when the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses for me, both in Jerusalem, and throughout all Judea, and Samaria, and unto the extremity of the earth.
9 Un to sacījis, Viņš tiem redzot tapa uzcelts, un viens padebesis To uzņēma no viņu acīm.
And as he was speaking these things, while they were looking upon him, he was taken up; and a cloud enveloping him hid him from their eyes.
10 Un kad tie skatījās uz debesīm, Viņam uzkāpjot, redzi, tad divi vīri pie tiem stāvēja baltās drēbēs,
And as they looked up earnestly into the heaven, while he was passing, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Un sacīja: “Jūs Galileju vīri, ko jūs stāvat skatīdamies uz debesīm! Šis Jēzus, kas ir uzņemts no jums uz debesīm, tāpat nāks, kā jūs viņu esat redzējuši debesīs uzkāpjam.”
who also said to them, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up to heaven? this Jesus, who hath been taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, in the same manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
12 Tad tie griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi no tā kalna, kas top saukts Eļļas kalns, kas ir tuvu pie Jeruzālemes vienu svētdienas gājumu.
Then they returned unto Jerusalem, from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, about a sabbath-day’s journey distant.
13 Un tur nonākuši tie uzkāpa augšistabā; tur bija sapulcēti Pēteris un Jēkabs, un Jānis un Andrejs, Filips un Toms, Bērtulis un Matejs, Jēkabs, Alfeja dēls, un Sīmanis Zelotes un Jūda, Jēkaba brālis.
And when they had arrived, they went up to an upper room, where abode Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James son of Alpheus, and Simon the zealous, and Jude brother to James.
14 Šie visi vienprātīgi pastāvēja iekš lūgšanas un pielūgšanas līdz ar tām sievām un ar Viņa brāļiem.
These all persevered unanimously in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
15 Un tanīs dienās Pēteris cēlās starp tiem mācekļiem un sacīja, (un tur bija kopā līdz simts divdesmit dvēselēm):
And in those days arose Peter in the midst of the disciples, and said, (there was a number of persons together, about an hundred and twenty, )
16 “Vīri, brāļi, tiem rakstiem bija tapt piepildītiem, ko Tas Svētais Gars ir papriekš sacījis caur Dāvida muti par Jūdasu, kas bija ceļa vadonis tiem, kas Jēzu saņēma.
Men and brethren, it must needs be that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost delivered before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was the conductor of those who seized on Jesus.
17 Jo tas bija pieskaitīts pie mums un līdz ar mums dabūjis šo pašu kalpošanas amatu.
For he was reckoned of our number, and had obtained an appointment to this ministry.
18 Tad nu šis tīrumu ir mantojis no tās netaisnās algas, un uz vaigu nokritis, tas vidū uz pusēm sprādzis un visas viņa iekšas ir izgāzušās.
This man indeed accordingly purchased a spot of ground with the wages of iniquity; and projected forward, he burst in the midst, and all his bowels fell out.
19 Un tas visiem, kas Jeruzālemē dzīvo, ir tapis zināms, kā arī tas tīrums viņu valodā ir nosaukts: Aķeldama, tas ir asins tīrums.
And it was a fact known to all who dwelt at Jerusalem; so that this field is called in their own dialect, Aceldama, that is, The field of blood.
20 Jo Dāvida dziesmu grāmatā ir rakstīts: viņu māja lai paliek par postažu, un lai neviens tur nedzīvo, un lai cits dabū viņa uzrauga amatu.
For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let there be no man to dwell in it: and his office, as bishop, let another take.
21 Tāpēc nu pieklājās, ka no tiem vīriem, kas ar mums kopā bijuši pa visu to laiku, kad Tas Kungs Jēzus pie mums ir iegājis un izgājis,
Wherefore from among the men who have associated with us always during the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
22 Iesākot no Jāņa kristības līdz tai dienai, kad Viņš no mums ir uzņemts debesīs, ka viens no šiem top par Viņa augšāmcelšanās liecinieku līdz ar mums.”
beginning from his baptism by John, until the day in which he was taken up from us, must there be chosen with us a witness of his resurrection, even one of these.
23 Un tie stādīja divus priekšā, Jāzepu, kas top saukts Barsaba, ar pavārdu Justs, un Mattīsu.
So they appointed two persons, Joseph called Barsabas, whose sirname was Justus, and Matthias.
24 Un Dievu pielūguši tie sacīja: “Kungs, Tu visu siržu manītājs, rādi no šiem diviem vienu, ko Tu izredzējis,
And joining in prayer, they said, Do thou, O Lord, who knowest the hearts of all men, point out the one of these two which thou hast chosen,
25 Kas var dalību dabūt pie šās kalpošanas un pie šī apustuļu amata, no kā Jūdas ir atstājies, noiedams savā vietā.”
to take a part in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, to go to his own place.
26 Un tie meslojās, un mesli krita uz Mattīsu, un tas tiem vienpadsmit tapa pieskaitīts.
And they drew lots for them and the lot fell to Matthias and he was by unanimous suffrage numbered with the eleven apostles.
