prēritāḥ 12
1 tasmin samayē hērōdrājō maṇḍalyāḥ kiyajjanēbhyō duḥkhaṁ dātuṁ prārabhat|
Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.
2 viśēṣatō yōhanaḥ sōdaraṁ yākūbaṁ karavālāghātēn hatavān|
And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
3 tasmād yihūdīyāḥ santuṣṭā abhavan iti vijñāya sa pitaramapi dharttuṁ gatavān|
And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
4 tadā kiṇvaśūnyapūpōtsavasamaya upātiṣṭat; ata utsavē gatē sati lōkānāṁ samakṣaṁ taṁ bahirānēyyāmīti manasi sthirīkr̥tya sa taṁ dhārayitvā rakṣṇārtham yēṣām ēkaikasaṁghē catvārō janāḥ santi tēṣāṁ caturṇāṁ rakṣakasaṁghānāṁ samīpē taṁ samarpya kārāyāṁ sthāpitavān|
And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
5 kintuṁ pitarasya kārāsthitikāraṇāt maṇḍalyā lōkā aviśrāmam īśvarasya samīpē prārthayanta|
Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church to God for him.
6 anantaraṁ hērōdi taṁ bahirānāyituṁ udyatē sati tasyāṁ rātrau pitarō rakṣakadvayamadhyasthānē śr̥ṅkhaladvayēna baddhvaḥ san nidrita āsīt, dauvārikāśca kārāyāḥ sammukhē tiṣṭhanatō dvāram arakṣiṣuḥ|
And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
7 ētasmin samayē paramēśvarasya dūtē samupasthitē kārā dīptimatī jātā; tataḥ sa dūtaḥ pitarasya kukṣāvāvātaṁ kr̥tvā taṁ jāgarayitvā bhāṣitavān tūrṇamuttiṣṭha; tatastasya hastasthaśr̥ṅkhaladvayaṁ galat patitaṁ|
And, behold, the angel of the Lord came on him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
8 sa dūtastamavadat, baddhakaṭiḥ san pādayōḥ pādukē arpaya; tēna tathā kr̥tē sati dūtastam uktavān gātrīyavastraṁ gātrē nidhāya mama paścād ēhi|
And the angel said to him, Gird yourself, and bind on your sandals. And so he did. And he says to him, Cast your garment about you, and follow me.
9 tataḥ pitarastasya paścād vrajana bahiragacchat, kintu dūtēna karmmaitat kr̥tamiti satyamajñātvā svapnadarśanaṁ jñātavān|
And he went out, and followed him; and knew not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.
10 itthaṁ tau prathamāṁ dvitīyāñca kārāṁ laṅghitvā yēna lauhanirmmitadvārēṇa nagaraṁ gamyatē tatsamīpaṁ prāpnutāṁ; tatastasya kavāṭaṁ svayaṁ muktamabhavat tatastau tatsthānād bahi rbhūtvā mārgaikasya sīmāṁ yāvad gatau; tatō'kasmāt sa dūtaḥ pitaraṁ tyaktavān|
When they were past the first and the second ward, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel departed from him.
11 tadā sa cētanāṁ prāpya kathitavān nijadūtaṁ prahitya paramēśvarō hērōdō hastād yihūdīyalōkānāṁ sarvvāśāyāśca māṁ samuddhr̥tavān ityahaṁ niścayaṁ jñātavān|
And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the LORD has sent his angel, and has delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
12 sa vivicya mārkanāmrā vikhyātasya yōhanō mātu rmariyamō yasmin gr̥hē bahavaḥ sambhūya prārthayanta tannivēśanaṁ gataḥ|
And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.
13 pitarēṇa bahirdvāra āhatē sati rōdānāmā bālikā draṣṭuṁ gatā|
And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to listen, named Rhoda.
14 tataḥ pitarasya svaraṁ śruvā sā harṣayuktā satī dvāraṁ na mōcayitvā pitarō dvārē tiṣṭhatīti vārttāṁ vaktum abhyantaraṁ dhāvitvā gatavatī|
And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.
15 tē prāvōcan tvamunmattā jātāsi kintu sā muhurmuhuruktavatī satyamēvaitat|
And they said to her, You are mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.
16 tadā tē kathitavantastarhi tasya dūtō bhavēt|
But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.
17 pitarō dvāramāhatavān ētasminnantarē dvāraṁ mōcayitvā pitaraṁ dr̥ṣṭvā vismayaṁ prāptāḥ|
But he, beckoning to them with the hand to hold their peace, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go show these things to James, and to the brothers. And he departed, and went into another place.
18 tataḥ pitarō niḥśabdaṁ sthātuṁ tān prati hastēna saṅkētaṁ kr̥tvā paramēśvarō yēna prakārēṇa taṁ kārāyā uddhr̥tyānītavān tasya vr̥ttāntaṁ tānajñāpayat, yūyaṁ gatvā yākubaṁ bhrātr̥gaṇañca vārttāmētāṁ vadatētyuktā sthānāntaraṁ prasthitavān|
Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
19 prabhātē sati pitaraḥ kva gata ityatra rakṣakāṇāṁ madhyē mahān kalahō jātaḥ|
And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and there stayed.
20 hērōd bahu mr̥gayitvā tasyōddēśē na prāptē sati rakṣakān saṁpr̥cchya tēṣāṁ prāṇān hantum ādiṣṭavān|
And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country.
21 paścāt sa yihūdīyapradēśāt kaisariyānagaraṁ gatvā tatrāvātiṣṭhat|
And on a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat on his throne, and made an oration to them.
22 sōrasīdōnadēśayō rlōkēbhyō hērōdi yuyutsau sati tē sarvva ēkamantraṇāḥ santastasya samīpa upasthāya lvāstanāmānaṁ tasya vastragr̥hādhīśaṁ sahāyaṁ kr̥tvā hērōdā sārddhaṁ sandhiṁ prārthayanta yatastasya rājñō dēśēna tēṣāṁ dēśīyānāṁ bharaṇam abhavatṁ
And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.
23 ataḥ kutracin nirupitadinē hērōd rājakīyaṁ paricchadaṁ paridhāya siṁhāsanē samupaviśya tān prati kathām uktavān|
And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
24 tatō lōkā uccaiḥkāraṁ pratyavadan, ēṣa manujaravō na hi, īśvarīyaravaḥ|
But the word of God grew and multiplied.
25 tadā hērōd īśvarasya sammānaṁ nākarōt; tasmāddhētōḥ paramēśvarasya dūtō haṭhāt taṁ prāharat tēnaiva sa kīṭaiḥ kṣīṇaḥ san prāṇān ajahāt| kintvīśvarasya kathā dēśaṁ vyāpya prabalābhavat| tataḥ paraṁ barṇabbāśaulau yasya karmmaṇō bhāraṁ prāpnutāṁ tābhyāṁ tasmin sampāditē sati mārkanāmnā vikhyātō yō yōhan taṁ saṅginaṁ kr̥tvā yirūśālamnagarāt pratyāgatau|
And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.
