Деяния святых апостолов 13
1 Бяху же нецыи во церкви сущей во Антиохии пророцы и учителие: Варнава же и Симеон нарицаемый Нигер, и Лукий Киринеанин, и Манаил со Иродом четвертовластником воспитанный, и Савл.
Among [the people in] the congregation at Antioch there were (prophets/those who spoke messages from God) and those who taught [people about Jesus. They were] Barnabas; Simeon, who was also called Niger/Blackman; Lucius, from Cyrene [city]; Manaen, who had grown up with [King] Herod [Antipas]; and Saul.
2 Служащым же им Господеви и постящымся, рече Дух Святый: отделите Ми Варнаву и Савла на дело, на неже призвах их.
While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said [to them], “Appoint Barnabas and Saul to [serve] me and to [go and do] the work that I have chosen them [to do]!”
3 Тогда постившеся и помолившеся и возложше руки на ня, отпустиша их.
So they continued (to fast/to abstain from eating food) and pray. Then having put their hands on Barnabas and Saul and [praying that God would help them], they sent them off [to do what the Holy Spirit had commanded].
4 Сия убо, послана бывша от Духа Свята, снидоста в Селевкию, оттуду же отплыста в Кипр,
Barnabas and Saul, guided by the Holy Spirit, went down [from Antioch] to Seleucia [port]. From there they went by ship to Salamis [port on Cyprus Island].
5 и бывша в Саламине, возвещаста слово Божие в сонмищих Иудейских: имеяста же и Иоанна слугу.
While they were in Salamis, [they went] to the Jewish meeting places. There they proclaimed the message from God [about Jesus]. John [Mark went with them and] was helping them.
6 Прошедша же остров даже до Пафа, обретоста некоего мужа волхва лжепророка Иудеанина, емуже имя Вариисус,
[The three of] them went across the entire island to Paphos [city]. There they met a magician whose name was Bar-Jesus. He was a Jew who falsely [claimed] (to be a prophet/to speak messages from God).
7 иже бе со анфипатом Сергием Павлом, мужем разумным. Сей призвав Варнаву и Савла, взыска услышати слово Божие:
He often accompanied the governor [of the island], Sergius Paulus, who was an intelligent man. The governor sent [someone] to ask Barnabas and Saul to come to him, because he wanted to hear God’s message. [So Barnabas and Saul came and told him about Jesus].
8 сопротивляшеся же има Елима волхв, тако бо сказуется имя его, иский развратити анфипата от веры.
However, the magician, whose name was Elymas [in the Greek language], was opposing them. He repeatedly tried to persuade the governor not to believe [in Jesus].
9 Савл же, иже и Павел, исполнися Духа Свята, и воззрев нань,
Then Saul, who now called himself Paul, empowered by the Holy Spirit, looked intently at the magician and said,
10 рече: о, исполненне всякия льсти и всякия злобы, сыне диаволь, враже всякия правды, не престанеши ли развращая пути Господни правыя?
“You [(sg)] are serving the devil and you oppose everything that is good! You are always lying [to people] and doing [other] evil things to them. (You must stop saying that the truth about the Lord [God is a lot of lies!]/When will you stop changing what is true about the Lord [God and saying] what is not true about him?) [RHQ]
11 И ныне, се, рука Господня на тя, и будеши слеп, не видя солнца до времене. Внезапу же нападе нань мрак и тма, и осязая искаше вожда.
Right now the Lord [God] [MTY] is going to punish you! You will become blind and not [even] be able to see light for [some] time.” At once he became [blind, as though he was] in a dark mist, and he groped about, searching for someone [to hold him by the] hand and lead him.
12 Тогда видев анфипат бывшее, верова, дивяся о учении Господни.
When the governor saw what had happened [to Elymas], he believed [in the Lord Jesus]. He was amazed by [what Paul and Barnabas] were teaching about the Lord [Jesus].
13 Отвезшеся же от Пафа Павел и сущии с ним, приидоша в Пергию Памфилийскую: Иоанн же, отлучився от них, возвратися во Иерусалим.
[After that], Paul and the two men with him went by ship from Paphos to Perga [port] in Pamphylia [province. At Perga] John [Mark] left them and returned to [his home in] Jerusalem.
14 Они же, прошедше от Пергии, приидоша во Антиохию Писидийскую, и вшедше в сонмище в день субботный, седоша.
Then Paul and Barnabas traveled [by land] from Perga, and arrived in Antioch [city] near Pisidia [district in Galatia province]. (On the Sabbath/On the Jewish rest day) they entered the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place and sat down.
15 По чтении же закона и пророк, послаша началницы сонмища к ним, глаголюще: мужие братие, аще есть слово в вас утешения к людем, глаголите.
[Someone] read [aloud] from what [Moses had written. Then someone read from what the other] prophets [had written] [MTY]. Then the leaders of the Jewish meeting place gave [someone this] note [to take] to Paul and Barnabas: “Fellow Jews, if [one of] you wants to speak to the people [here] to encourage them, please speak [to us(exc) now].”
16 Востав же Павел и помаав рукою, рече: мужие Израильтяне и боящиися Бога, услышите:
So Paul stood up and motioned with his right hand [so that the people would listen to him]. Then he said, “Fellow Israelis and you [non-Jewish people] who [also] worship God, [please] listen [to me]!
17 Бог людий сих избра отцы нашя и люди вознесе в пришелствии в земли Египетстей, и мышцею высокою изведе их из нея
God, whom we [(inc)] Israelis worship, chose our ancestors [to be his people], and he caused them to become very numerous while they were foreigners living in Egypt. [Then after many years], God helped them [MTY] powerfully and led them out of there.
18 и до четыредесяти лет препита их в пустыни:
[Even though they repeatedly disobeyed him, he] cared for them for about 40 years [while they were] in the desert.
19 и низложив язык седмь в земли Ханаанстей, даде им в наследие землю их,
He [enabled the Israelis] to conquer seven tribal groups [who were then living] in Canaan [region], and he gave their land to us Israelis for us to possess.
20 и по сих, яко лет четыреста и пятьдесят, даде им судии до Самуила пророка:
[Our ancestors began to possess Canaan] about 450 years after [their ancestors had arrived in Egypt].” Acts 13:20b-22 “After that, God appointed leaders [to rule the Israeli people. Those leaders continued to rule our people] until the time when the prophet Samuel [ruled them].
21 и оттуду просиша царя, и даде им Бог Саула сына Кисова, мужа от колена Вениаминова, лет четыредесять:
Then, [while Samuel was still their leader], the people demanded that he [appoint] a king [to rule them. So] God appointed Saul, the son of Kish, from the tribe of Benjamin, [to be their king]. He [ruled them] for 40 years.
22 и преставль его, воздвиже им Давида в царя, емуже и рече свидетелствовав: обретох Давида сына Иессеова, мужа по сердцу Моему, иже сотворит вся хотения Моя.
After God had rejected Saul [from being king], he appointed David to be their king. God said about him, ‘I have observed that David, son of Jesse, is exactly the kind of man that I desire [IDM]. He will do [everything that] I want [him to do].’”
23 От сего семене Бог по обетованию воздвиже Израилю Спасение Иисуса,
“From [among] David’s descendants, God brought one of them, Jesus, to [us] Israeli people to save us, just like he had told [David and our other ancestors] that he would do.
24 проповедавшу Иоанну пред лицем внития Его крещение покаяния всем людем Израилевым.
Before Jesus began his work, John [the Baptizer] preached to all of our Israeli people [who came to him. He told them] that they should turn away from their sinful behavior [and ask God to forgive them. Then he] would baptize them.
25 И якоже скончаваше Иоанн течение, глаголаше: кого мя непщуете быти? Несмь аз, но се, грядет по мне, Емуже несмь достоин разрешити ремень сапогу Его.
When John was about to finish the work [that God gave him to do], he frequently said [to the people], ‘Do you think [RHQ] that I am [the Messiah whom God promised to send]? No, I am not. But listen! The Messiah will [soon] come. [He is so much greater than I am that] I am not [even] important enough to be his slave [MET].’”
26 Мужие братие, сынове рода Авраамля, и иже в вас боящиися Бога, вам слово спасения сего послася.
“Fellow Israelis, you who are descendants of Abraham, and [you non-Jewish people who] also worship God, [please listen! It is] to [all of] us that [God] has sent the message about [how he] saves people.
27 Живущии бо во Иерусалиме и князи их, сего не разумевше, и гласы пророческия по вся субботы чтомыя, осудивше (Его), исполниша,
The people who were living in Jerusalem and their rulers did not realize that this man [Jesus was the one whom God had sent to save them]. Although messages from [MTY] the prophets have been read [aloud] {someone has read [aloud] messages from [MTY] the prophets} every (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), they did not understand [what the prophets wrote about the Messiah. So] the [Jewish leaders] condemned Jesus [to die], which was just like the prophets predicted.
28 и ни единыя вины смертныя обретше, просиша у Пилата убити Его:
[Many people accused Jesus of doing wicked things], but they could not prove that he had done anything for which he deserved to die. They insistently asked Pilate [the governor] to command that Jesus be executed {to command soldiers to execute Jesus}. [So Pilate did what they asked him to do].
29 якоже скончаша вся, яже о Нем писана, снемше с древа, положиша во гробе.
They did [to Jesus] all the things that [the prophets long ago had] written [that people would do to] him. [They killed Jesus by nailing him to a cross. Then] his body was taken {[some people took] his body} down from the cross and placed it in a tomb.
30 Бог же воскреси Его от мертвых:
However, God (raised him from the dead/caused him to live again after he had died)
31 иже являшеся во дни многи совозшедшым с Ним от Галилеи во Иерусалим, иже ныне суть свидетелие Его к людем.
and for many days he [repeatedly] appeared to [his followers] who had come along with him from Galilee [province] to Jerusalem. Those [who saw him] are telling the [Jewish] people about him now.”
32 И мы вам благовествуем обетование бывшее ко отцем, яко сие Бог исполнил есть нам чадом их, воздвиг Иисуса,
“[Right] now we [two] are proclaiming to you this good message. We want to tell you that God has fulfilled what he promised to [our Jewish] ancestors!
33 якоже и во псалме вторем писано есть: Сын Мой еси Ты, Аз днесь родих Тя.
He has now done that for us [(inc) who are] their descendants, [and also for you who are not Jews], by causing Jesus to live again. That is just like what [David] wrote in the second Psalm that [God said when he was sending his Son], You [(sg)] are my Son; Today I have shown everyone [that I really am] your Father.
34 А якоже воскреси Его от мертвых, не ктому хотяща возвратитися во истление, сице рече: яко дам вам преподобная Давидова верная.
[God] has (raised [the Messiah] from the dead/caused [the Messiah] to live again after he had died) and will never let him die again. [Concerning that, God] said [to our Jewish ancestors], ‘I will surely help you, as I [promised] David [that I would do].’
35 Темже и в другом глаголет: не даси Преподобному Твоему видети истления.
So [in writing] another [Psalm, David] said this [to God about the Messiah]: ‘Because I am devoted to you and always obey [you, when I die] you [(sg)] will not let my body decay.’
36 Давид бо, своему роду послужив Божиим советом, успе, и приложися ко отцем своим, и виде истление:
While David was living, he did what God wanted him to do. And when he died [EUP], his [body] was buried, [as] his ancestors’ [bodies had been buried], and his body decayed. [So he could not have been speaking about himself in this Psalm].
37 а Егоже Бог воздвиже, не виде истления.
[Instead, he was speaking about Jesus. Jesus also died], but God (raised him from the dead/caused him to live again), and [therefore] his body did not decay.”
38 Ведомо убо да будет вам, мужие братие, яко Его ради вам оставление грехов проповедается:
“Therefore, [my] fellow Israelis [and other friends], it is important for you to know that [we(exc)] are declaring to you [that God] can forgive you for your sins as a result of [what] Jesus [has done]. Because of [what] Jesus [has done], [God] considers that everyone who believes [in Jesus] is no longer guilty (OR, the record has been erased {[God] has erased the record}) concerning everything that they [have done that displeased God. But] when [God] does [that for you], it is not as a result of [your obeying] the laws [that] Moses [wrote].
39 и от всех, от нихже не возмогосте в законе Моисеове оправдитися, о Сем всяк веруяй оправдается.
40 Блюдите убо, да не приидет на вас реченное во пророцех:
Therefore be careful that [God] does not judge you [MTY], as one of the prophets said [MTY] that God would do!
41 видите, нерадивии, и чудитеся, и узрите и исчезнете: яко дело Аз соделаю во дни вашя, емуже не имате веровати, аще кто повесть вам.
[The prophet wrote that God said], You who ridicule [me], you will [certainly] be astonished [when you see what I am doing], and [then] you will be destroyed. You will be astonished because I will do something [terrible to you] while you are living. You would not believe [that I would do that] even though someone told you!”
42 Исходящым же им от сонмища Иудейска, моляху языцы в другую субботу глаголатися им глаголом сим:
After Paul [finished speaking], while he and Barnabas were leaving the Jewish meeting place, [many of] the people there repeatedly requested that on the next (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) [the two of them] should speak to them [again] about those things [that Paul had just told them].
43 разшедшуся же собору, последоваша мнози от Иудей и честивых пришлец Павлу и Варнаве, иже, глаголюща им, увещаста их пребывати в благодати Божией.
After they began to leave [that meeting], many [of them] went along with Paul and Barnabas. They consisted of Jews and also of non-Jews who had accepted the things that the Jews believe. Paul and Barnabas continued talking to them, and were urging them to continue [believing the message that] God kindly [forgives people’s sins because of what Jesus did].
44 Во грядущую же субботу мало не весь град собрася послушати слова Божия:
On the next Jewish rest day, most of the [people in Antioch came to] the Jewish meeting place to hear [Paul and Barnabas] speak about the Lord [Jesus].
45 видевше же Иудее народы, исполнишася зависти и вопреки глаголаху глаголемым от Павла, сопротив глаголюще и хуляще.
But [the leaders of] [SYN] the Jews became extremely jealous, because they saw that large crowds of [non-Jewish people were coming to hear Paul and Barnabas. So] they began to contradict the things that Paul was saying [and also] to insult [him].
46 Дерзнувша же Павел и Варнава рекоста: вам бе лепо первее глаголати слово Божие: а понеже отвергосте е и недостойны творите сами себе вечному животу, се, обращаемся во языки: (aiōnios g166)
Then, speaking very boldly, Paul and Barnabas said [to those Jewish leaders], “[We two] had to speak the message from God [about Jesus] to you [Jews] first [before we proclaim it to non-Jews, because God commanded us to do that. But] you are rejecting God’s message. [By doing that], you have shown that you are not worthy (to have eternal life/to live eternally [with God]). [Therefore], we are leaving [you, and now we] will go to the non-Jewish people [to tell them the message from God]. (aiōnios g166)
47 тако бо заповеда нам Господь: положих Тя во свет языком, еже быти Тебе во спасение даже до последних земли.
[We are doing that also] because the Lord [God] has commanded us [to do it]. He said to us, ‘I have appointed you [to reveal things about me] to non-Jewish people [MET] that will be [like] a light to them. [I have appointed] you to tell people everywhere [MTY] in the world [about the one who came] to save [them].’”
48 Слышаще же языцы радовахуся и славляху слово Господне, и вероваша, елицы учинени бяху в жизнь вечную: (aiōnios g166)
While the non-Jewish people were listening [to those words], they began to rejoice, and they repeatedly said that the message about the Lord [Jesus] was wonderful. And all of the non-Jewish people whom [God] had chosen (to have eternal [life/to live eternally with God]) believed [the message about the Lord Jesus]. (aiōnios g166)
49 проношашеся же слово Господне по всей стране.
[At that time, many of the believers] traveled around throughout that region. As they did that, they were proclaiming the message about the Lord [Jesus] [MTY].
50 Иудее же наустиша честивыя жены и благообразныя и старейшины града, и воздвигоша гонение на Павла и Варнаву, и изгнаша я от предел своих.
However, [some leaders of] [SYN] the Jews incited the most important men in the city, and [some] important/influential women who had accepted what the Jews believe, to oppose [Paul and Barnabas. So those non-Jewish people] incited [other people also] to persecute Paul and Barnabas. As a result they expelled the two men from their region.
51 Она же, отрясша прах от ног своих на них, приидоста во Иконию.
So, [as the two apostles were leaving, they] shook the dust from their feet [to show those Jewish leaders that God had rejected them and would punish them. They left Antioch] and went to Iconium [city].
52 Ученицы же исполняхуся радости и Духа Свята.
Meanwhile, the believers [in Antioch] continued to rejoice greatly, and they continued to be completely controlled by the Holy Spirit.
