Apustuļu Darbi 8
1 Bet Saulam viņa nāve bija ļoti pa prātam; un tanī dienā liela vajāšana cēlās pret to draudzi, kas bija Jeruzālemē. Un visi izklīda pa Jūdu zemes un Samarijas tiesām, tik ne tie apustuļi.
Saul was consenting to his death. A great persecution arose against the assembly which was in Jerusalem in that day. They were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles.
2 Un dievbijīgi vīri Stefanu paglabāja un viņu gauži nožēloja.
Devout men buried Stephen and lamented greatly over him.
3 Bet Sauls to draudzi postīja un gāja pa namiem, satverdams gan vīrus, gan sievas, un tos nodeva cietumā.
But Saul ravaged the assembly, entering into every house and dragged both men and women off to prison.
4 Tad nu tie izklīdinātie apkārt staigāja, to vārdu pasludinādami.
Therefore those who were scattered abroad went around preaching the word.
5 Un Filips uz vienu Samarijas pilsētu nogājis, tiem Kristu pasludināja.
Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed to them the Christ.
6 Un tie ļaudis vienprātīgi klausījās uz to, ko Filips runāja, dzirdēdami un redzēdami tās zīmes, ko viņš darīja;
The multitudes listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philip when they heard and saw the signs which he did.
7 Jo no daudziem, kam bija nešķīsti gari, tie izgāja, ar stipru balsi brēkdami, un daudzi melmeņu sērdzīgi(paralizēti) un tizli tapa dziedināti.
For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralysed and lame were healed.
8 Un liela līksmība cēlās tai pilsētā.
There was great joy in that city.
9 Un kāds vīrs, ar vārdu Sīmanis, tai pilsētā līdz tam bija darbojies ar buršanu un Samarijas ļaudis iztrūcinājis sacīdams, ka esot liels vīrs;
But there was a certain man, Simon by name, who used to practise sorcery in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one,
10 Tam visi klausīja, tā mazi kā lieli sacīdami: “Šis ir tas lielais Dieva spēks.”
to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is that great power of God.”
11 Bet tie tāpēc tam klausīja, ka tas jau sen ar burvību tos bija apstulbojis.
They listened to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries.
12 Kad tie nu Filipam ticēja, kas tiem pasludināja to evaņģēliju par Dieva valstību un Jēzus Kristus vārdu, tad tie tapa kristīti, tā vīri kā sievas.
But when they believed Philip preaching good news concerning God’s Kingdom and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptised, both men and women.
13 Un Sīmanis pats arīdzan ticēja, un kristīts pastāvīgi turējās pie Filipa, un redzēdams zīmes un lielus brīnumus notiekam, viņš iztrūkās.
Simon himself also believed. Being baptised, he continued with Philip. Seeing signs and great miracles occurring, he was amazed.
14 Bet tie apustuļi Jeruzālemē dzirdēdami, ka Samarija Dieva vārdu bija pieņēmusi, sūtīja pie tiem Pēteri un Jāni.
Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,
15 Šie nonākuši par tiem lūdza Dievu, ka tie dabūtu Svēto Garu.
who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit;
16 Jo tas vēl uz nevienu no tiem nebija nācis, bet tie bija tikai kristīti uz Tā Kunga Jēzus vārdu.
for as yet he had fallen on none of them. They had only been baptised in the name of Christ Jesus.
17 Tad viņi rokas tiem uzlika, un tie dabūja Svēto Garu.
Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
18 Bet Sīmanis redzēdams, ka caur apustuļu roku uzlikšanu Svētais Gars top dots, tiem dāvāja naudu,
Now when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money,
19 Sacīdams: “Dodiet man arīdzan to spēku, ka tas, kam es rokas uzlieku, dabū Svēto Garu.”
saying, “Give me also this power, that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20 Bet Pēteris uz to sacīja: “Ka tu pazustu ar savu sudrabu, tāpēc ka tu domā Dieva dāvanu par naudu pirkt.
But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money!
21 Tev nav daļas nedz mantošanas pie šā vārda, jo tava sirds nav taisna Dieva priekšā.
You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart isn’t right before God.
22 Tāpēc atgriezies no šā sava ļaunuma un lūdz Dievu, vai šis tavas sirds nodoms tev varētu tapt piedots;
Repent therefore of this, your wickedness, and ask God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.
23 Jo es tevi redzu rūgtas žults pilnu un netaisnībā saistītu.”
For I see that you are in the poison of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity.”
24 Bet Sīmanis atbildēja un sacīja: “Lūdziet jūs par mani To Kungu, lai uz mani nenāk, ko jūs esat runājuši.”
Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord, that none of the things which you have spoken happen to me.”
25 Tad nu Tā Kunga vārdu apliecinājuši un runājuši, tie griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi un pasludināja evanģēliju daudz Samarijas miestos.
They therefore, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the Good News to many villages of the Samaritans.
26 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis uz Filipu runāja sacīdams: “Celies un ej uz dienvidu pusi uz to ceļu, kas no Jeruzālemes iet uz Gazu, kur daudz nestaigā.”
Then an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, “Arise, and go towards the south to the way that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert.”
27 Un cēlies viņš nogāja. Un redzi, viens Moru vīrs, Kandaces, Moru zemes ķēniņienes, kambarjunkurs un lielskungs, kas bija pār visām viņas mantām, tas bija nācis uz Jeruzālemi, Dievu pielūgt.
He arose and went; and behold, there was a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship.
28 Un atpakaļ uz ceļu devies viņš sēdēja savos ratos un lasīja pravieti Jesaju.
He was returning and sitting in his chariot, and was reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 Un Tas Gars uz Filipu sacīja: “Ej klāt un turies pie šiem ratiem.”
The Spirit said to Philip, “Go near, and join yourself to this chariot.”
30 Un piesteidzies Filips dzirdēja viņu lasām pravieti Jesaju un sacīja: “Vai tu arī saproti, ko tu lasi?”
Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, “Do you understand what you are reading?”
31 Bet tas sacīja: “Kā lai to varu, kad neviens mani nemāca?” Un viņš lūdza Filipu, lai tas uzkāptu un pie tā piesēstos.
He said, “How can I, unless someone explains it to me?” He begged Philip to come up and sit with him.
32 Un tas rakstu gabals, ko tas lasīja, bija šis: “Viņš ir tā kā avs pie kaušanas vests un itin kā jērs apklusis sava cirpēja priekšā, tāpat Viņš savu muti neatdara.
Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this, “He was led as a sheep to the slaughter. As a lamb before his shearer is silent, so he doesn’t open his mouth.
33 Iekš Viņa pazemošanās Viņa sodība ir atņemta; kas izteiks Viņa dzimumu? Jo Viņa dzīvība top aizrauta no zemes.”
In his humiliation, his judgement was taken away. Who will declare His generation? For his life is taken from the earth.”
34 Un tas kambarjunkurs atbildēja un uz Filipu sacīja: “Es tevi lūdzu, par ko tas pravietis to saka? Vai par sevi pašu, jeb vai par citu kādu?”
The eunuch answered Philip, “Who is the prophet talking about? About himself, or about someone else?”
35 Un Filips savu muti atdarīja un no šī raksta iesākdams viņam pasludināja to evaņģēliju no Jēzus.
Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture, preached to him about Jesus.
36 Un to ceļu braukdami tie nāca pie kāda ūdens, un tas kambarjunkurs sacīja: “Redz, še ūdens! Kas stāv pretī, ka topu kristīts?”
As they went on the way, they came to some water; and the eunuch said, “Behold, here is water. What is keeping me from being baptised?”
37 Bet Filips sacīja: “Ja tu no visas sirds tici, tad to var.” Un viņš atbildēja un sacīja: “Es ticu, ka Jēzus Kristus ir Dieva Dēls.”
38 Un viņš pavēlēja, tos ratus pieturēt, un abi divi nokāpa ūdenī, tā Filips kā tas kambarjunkurs, un viņš to kristīja.
He commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptised him.
39 Un kad tie no ūdens bija izkāpuši, Dieva Gars Filipu aizrāva, un tas kambarjunkurs viņu vairs neredzēja; bet viņš līksms brauca savu ceļu.
When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, and the eunuch didn’t see him any more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
40 Bet Filips atradās Ašdodā; un visas pilsētas pārstaigādams, viņš evaņģēliju sludināja, kamēr nāca uz Cezareju.
But Philip was found at Azotus. Passing through, he preached the Good News to all the cities until he came to Caesarea.
