Apostolska dela 11

1 Slišali pa so aposteljni in bratje, kteri so bili v Judeji, da so tudi pogani sprejeli besedo Božjo.

Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles also received the word of God.

2 In ko je prišel Peter v Jeruzalem, prepirali so se z njim, kteri so bili iz obreze,

And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, the men of circumcision contended against him,

3 Govoreč: K možém neobrezanim si šel, in jedel si ž njimi.

saying, Thou went in to uncircumcised men, having also eaten with them.

4 Peter pa začne, in izkladal jim je po vrsti, govoreč:

But when Peter began, he expounded to them in order, saying,

5 Jaz sem v mestu Jopi molil, in videl sem v zamaknenji prikazen, da je shajala nekaka posoda, kakor velik prt, in se je za čvetere ogle spuščala z neba, in prišla noter do mene.

I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision, a certain container descending, as a great sheet being lowered from heaven by four corners, and it came as far as to me,

6 In pogledavši va-njo, opazim in ugledam štirinogate in divje in lazeče živali zemlje, in tice nebeške.

having gazed at which, I was examining. And I saw the four footed things of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the sky.

7 In zaslišim glas, da mi pravi: Vstani, Peter, zakolji in jej!

And I heard a voice saying to me, Having risen, Peter, kill and eat.

8 In rekel sem; Nikakor ne, Gospod! kajti nagnjusnega ali nečistega ni nikoli nič prišlo v usta moja.

But I said, Not so, Lord, because nothing profane or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.

9 Odgovorí pa mi glas v drugo z neba: Kar je Bog očistil, ne imej ti za nagnjusno.

But a voice answered me for a second time out of heaven, What God has cleansed, thou shall not make profane.

10 To pa se je zgodilo trikrat, in zopet se je potegnilo vse na nebo.

And this happened thrice, and all were drawn up again into heaven.

11 In glej, precej se trije možjé postavijo pred hišo, v kterej sem bil, poslani iz Cezareje k meni.

And behold, immediately three men stood at the house in which I was, who were sent from Caesarea to me.

12 In reče mi Duh, naj grem brez pomišljevanja ž njimi. Prišlo je pa z menoj tudi tehle šest bratov, in vstopili smo v hišo moževo.

And the Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing. And these six brothers also went with me, and we entered into the man's house.

13 In povedal nam je, kako je videl angelja v hiši svojej, da je pristopil in mu rekel: Pošlji v Jopo móž, in pokliči Simona s priimkom Petra,

And he informed us how he saw the agent in his house, who stood and said to him, Send forth men to Joppa, and summon Simon, the man surnamed Peter,

14 Kteri ti bo govoril besede, po kterih se boš zveličal ti in vsa hiša tvoja.

who will speak sayings to thee, by which thou will be saved, thou and all thy house.

15 Ko sem pa jel govoriti, pade sveti Duh na-nje, kakor tudi na nas v začetku.

And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, just as also on us at the beginning.

16 Tedaj sem se spomenil besede Gospodove, kakor je povedal: "Janez sicer je krstil z vodo, ali vi se boste krstili z Duhom svetim."

And I remembered the saying of the Lord, how he said, John indeed immersed in water, but ye will be immersed in the Holy Spirit.

17 Ko jim je torej Bog dal ravno ta dar, kakor tudi nam, kteri smo verovali v Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa: kdo pa sem bil jaz, da bi bil mogel Bogu zabraniti?

If then God gave to them the identical gift as also to us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, but what power was I to hinder God?

18 Ko so pa to slišali, umolknili so, in slavili so Boga, govoreč: Torej tudi poganom je Bog dal pokoro za življenje.

And when they heard these things, they relaxed and glorified God, saying, Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.

19 Ti pa, kteri so se bili razkropili za voljo stiske, ktera je nastala za Štefana, prišli so noter do Fenicije, nikomur ne govoreč besede, razen samo Judom.

Indeed therefore those who were scattered abroad from the persecution that occurred against Stephen passed through as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to none except Jews only.

20 Bili so pa nekteri od njih možjé Ciprani in Cirenci, kteri so, ko so bili prišli v Antijohijo, govorili tudi Grkom, in oznanjevali Gospoda Jezusa.

And some of them were men, Cyprians and Cyrenians, who, having come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching good news, the Lord Jesus.

21 In bila je roka Gospodova ž njimi; in veliko število jih je verovalo in izpreobrnilo se h Gospodu.

And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number who believed turned to the Lord.

22 In prišel je glas o tem do ušes cerkve, ktera je bila v Jeruzalemu; in poslali so Barnaba, naj odide do Antijohije.

And the word about them was heard in the ears of the church at Jerusalem, and they dispatched Barnabas to pass through as far as Antioch,

23 Ta, ko je prišel, in je videl milost Božjo, oveselil se je, in prosil je vse, naj s stanovitnim srcem ostanejo v Gospodu.

who, having arrived, and having seen the grace of God, rejoiced. And he encouraged all, with purpose of heart, to remain in the Lord.

24 Kajti bil je mož dober in poln Duha svetega in vere. In pridružilo se je veliko ljudstva Gospodu.

Because he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a considerable multitude was added to the Lord.

25 Tedaj izide Barnaba v Tars iskat Savla; in ko ga je našel, pripelje ga v Antijohijo.

And Barnabas departed to Tarsus to seek Saul,

26 In zbirala sta se celo leto v cerkvi, in učila sta dosti ljudstva, in imenovali so se učenci najprej v Antijohiji Kristjani.

and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. And it came to pass a whole year for them to be assembled in the congregation, and to teach a considerable multitude, and to call the disciples Christians, first at Antioch.

27 V te dní so pa prišli iz Jeruzalema preroki v Antijohijo.

Now in these days prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.

28 In vstavši eden od njih po imenu Agab, oznani po Duhu, da bo lakota velika po vsem svetu; ktera je tudi bila za Klavdija cesarja.

And one of them named Agabus, after standing up, signified by the Spirit there was going be a great famine in the whole world, which also happened under Claudius Caesar.

29 Tedaj učenci, vsak po zmožnosti svojej, sklenejo v pomoč poslati bratom, kteri so prebivali v Judeji;

And the disciples, as any man prospered, determined, each of them regarding aid, to send to the brothers who dwell in Judea,

30 Kar so tudi storili, poslavši starešinam po roki Barnabovej in Savlovej.

which also they did, having sent it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
