Apustuļu Darbi 16
1 Un viņš nāca uz Derbi un Listru. Un redzi, tur bija viens māceklis, vārdā Timotejs, ticīgas Jūdu sievas dēls, bet no Grieķu tēva.
He came to Derbe and Lystra; and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess who believed, but his father was a Greek.
2 Šim laba liecība tika dota no tiem brāļiem Listrā un Ikonijā.
The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium gave a good testimony about him.
3 Pāvils gribēja, ka šis viņam ietu līdz; un viņš to ņēma un apgraizīja to Jūdu dēļ kas tanīs vietās bija, jo visi zināja, ka viņa tēvs bijis Grieķis.
Paul wanted to have him go out with him, and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
4 Un kad tie pārstaigāja tās pilsētas, tad tie viņiem pavēlēja, tos likumus sargāt, ko tie apustuļi un vecaji Jeruzālemē bija nosprieduši.
As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered the decrees to them to keep which had been ordained by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.
5 Tad nu tās draudzes tapa stiprinātas iekš ticības, un viņu pulks jo dienas vairojās.
So the assemblies were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.
6 Un tiem caur Friģiju un Galatiju ejot tapa aizliegts no Tā Svētā Gara, to vārdu iekš Āzijas runāt.
When they had gone through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.
7 Mizijā nākuši tie raudzīja uz Bitiniju iet, bet Tas Gars tiem neļāva.
When they had come opposite Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit didn’t allow them.
8 Un gar Miziju gājuši tie nonāca uz Troādu.
Passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
9 Un Pāvils naktī redzēja parādīšanu: viens Maķedoniets stāvēja, viņu lūgdams un sacīdams: “Nāc uz Maķedoniju un palīdzi mums.”
A vision appeared to Paul in the night. There was a man of Macedonia standing, begging him and saying, “Come over into Macedonia and help us.”
10 Un kad viņš to parādīšanu bija redzējis, tad mēs meklējām tūdaļ iziet uz Maķedoniju, nomanīdami, ka Tas Kungs mūs bija aicinājis, tiem evaņģēliju sludināt.
When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the Good News to them.
11 Tad mēs nocēlušies no Troādas gājām tiešām uz Samotrāķiju un otrā dienā uz Neapoli;
Setting sail therefore from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis;
12 Un no turienes uz Filipiem, kas ir tā lielākā pilsēta kādā Maķedonijas tiesā, kur ienācēji bija apmetušies. Un tanī pilsētā mēs palikām kādas dienas.
and from there to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the foremost of the district, a Roman colony. We were staying some days in this city.
13 Un tai svētā dienā mēs izgājām no pilsētas ārā gar upes malu, kur tie bija ieraduši Dievu lūgt. Un apsēdušies mēs runājām uz tām sanākušām sievām.
On the Sabbath day we went outside of the city by a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we sat down and spoke to the women who had come together.
14 Un viena sieva, ar vārdu Lidija, purpura pārdevēja no Tiatiras pilsētas, dievbijīga sieva, klausījās. Tai Tas Kungs sirdi atdarīja, ņemt vērā, ko Pāvils runāja.
A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshipped God, heard us. The Lord opened her heart to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul.
15 Un kad tā ar savu namu bija kristīta, tad tā lūdza sacīdama: “Ja jums šķiet, ka esmu ticīga uz To Kungu, tad nāciet manā namā un paliekat tur.” Un tā mūs piespieda.
When she and her household were baptised, she begged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay.” So she persuaded us.
16 Bet notikās, mums ejot Dievu lūgt, viena meita mūs sastapa; tai bija zīlētāja gars, un ar zīlēšanu tā saviem kungiem daudz peļnas pienesa.
As we were going to prayer, a certain girl having a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by fortune telling.
17 Šī Pāvilam un mums gāja pakaļ un brēca sacīdama: “Šie cilvēki ir Dieva, Tā Visu Augstākā, kalpi, kas jums pestīšanas ceļu sludina.”
Following Paul and us, she cried out, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us a way of salvation!”
18 Un to viņa darīja daudz dienas. Bet Pāvilam tas bija pretī un atgriezdamies tas uz to garu sacīja: “Jēzus Kristus vārdā es tev pavēlu iziet no tās.” Un viņš no tās izgāja tanī pašā stundā.
She was doing this for many days. But Paul, becoming greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!” It came out that very hour.
19 Bet viņas kungi redzēdami, ka viņu peļņas cerība bija zudusi, ņēma Pāvilu un Sīlasu un tos vilka uz tirgu pie tiem virsniekiem;
But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers.
20 Un tos pieveduši pie tiem valdītājiem, viņi sacīja: “Šie cilvēki mūsu pilsētu sajauc, Jūdi būdami,
When they had brought them to the magistrates, they said, “These men, being Jews, are agitating our city
21 Un sludina ierašas, ko mums, kas esam Romieši, neklājās nedz pieņemt, nedz darīt.”
and advocate customs which it is not lawful for us to accept or to observe, being Romans.”
22 Un tas ļaužu pulks cēlās pret tiem, un tie virsnieki tiem noplēsa drēbes un pavēlēja, tos ar rīkstēm šaust.
The multitude rose up together against them and the magistrates tore their clothes from them, then commanded them to be beaten with rods.
23 Un daudz sitienus tiem devuši, viņi tos iemeta cietumā, un cietuma sargam pavēlēja, tos cieti sargāt.
When they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely.
24 Šis tādu pavēli dabūjis, tos iemeta tai dziļākā cietumā un viņu kājas apcietināja siekstā.
Having received such a command, he threw them into the inner prison and secured their feet in the stocks.
25 Un ap nakts vidu Pāvils un Sīlas Dievu lūdza un slavas dziesmas dziedāja, un tie, kas bija cietumā, uz viņiem klausījās.
But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
26 Tad piepeši liela zemes trīcēšana notika, tā ka cietuma pamati kustēja, un tūdaļ visas durvis atvērās, un visiem saites tapa vaļā.
Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s bonds were loosened.
27 Un tas cietuma sargs uzmodies un cietuma durvis redzējis atvērtas, izvilka zobenu un gribēja sevi pašu nonāvēt, domādams, tos cietumniekus esam izbēgušus.
The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
28 Bet Pāvils ar stipru balsi brēca sacīdams: “Nedari sev ļauna, jo mēs visi esam šeitan.”
But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, “Don’t harm yourself, for we are all here!”
29 Un viņš sveci prasījis, ieskrēja un drebēdams metās zemē priekš Pāvila un Sīlasa,
He called for lights, sprang in, fell down trembling before Paul and Silas,
30 Un tos izveda ārā un sacīja: “Kungi, ko man būs darīt, lai es mūžīgi dzīvoju?”
brought them out, and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
31 Un tie sacīja: “Tici uz To Kungu Jēzu Kristu, tad tu un viss tavs nams mūžīgi dzīvos.”
They said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
32 Un tie runāja Tā Kunga vārdu uz viņu un uz visiem, kas bija tanī namā.
They spoke the word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his house.
33 Un viņš tos uzņēma tanī pašā nakts stundā un tiem brūces nomazgāja; un tūdaļ viņš tapa kristīts, pats un visi viņa piederīgie.
He took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes, and was immediately baptised, he and all his household.
34 Un viņš tos veda savā namā, tos sēdināja pie galda un priecājās, ka viņš ar visu savu namu bija nācis pie ticības uz Dievu.
He brought them up into his house and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly with all his household, having believed in God.
35 Kad nu gaisma bija aususi, tad tie virsnieki sūtīja sulaiņus, un lika sacīt: “Palaid šos cilvēkus.”
But when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, “Let those men go.”
36 Un tas cietuma sargs Pāvilam pasludināja šos vārdus: “Tie virsnieki sūtījuši, lai jūs atlaiž. Tad nu izejiet un staigājiet ar mieru.”
The jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore come out and go in peace.”
37 Bet Pāvils uz tiem sacīja: “Tie mūs, Romiešu cilvēkus, netiesātus visiem redzot ir šautuši un cietumā iemetuši, un tagad tie mūs slepeni izmet? Tā ne; bet lai viņi paši nāk un mūs izved.”
But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us publicly without a trial, men who are Romans, and have cast us into prison! Do they now release us secretly? No, most certainly, but let them come themselves and bring us out!”
38 Un tie sulaiņi atsacīja šos vārdus tiem virsniekiem: un tie bijās, dzirdēdami, tos esam Romiešus.
The sergeants reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Romans,
39 Un nākuši viņi tos pārrunāja un tos izveda un lūdza, iziet no tās pilsētas.
and they came and begged them. When they had brought them out, they asked them to depart from the city.
40 Un tie no cietuma izgājuši, nogāja pie tās Lidijas; un tos brāļus redzējuši, tie tos pamācīja un aizgāja.
They went out of the prison and entered into Lydia’s house. When they had seen the brothers, they encouraged them, then departed.
