Mga Gawa 1
1 Teofilo, nabanggit sa unang aklat na aking isinulat ang lahat ng mga gawain na sinimulan at itinuro ni Jesus.
THE former writing, O Theophilus, I wrote concerning all those (things) which our Lord Jeshu Meshiha began to do and to teach,
2 Hanggang sa araw na siya ay tinanggap sa itaas. Ito ay matapos siyang bigyan ng utos sa pamamagitan ng Banal na Espiritu para sa mga Apostol na kaniyang pinili.
until that day in which he was taken up, after that he had instructed those apostles whom he had chosen by the Holy Spirit:
3 Pagkatapos ng kaniyang paghihirap, iniharap niyang buhay ang kaniyang sarili sa kanila kasama ang marami pang mga kapani-paniwalang katibayan. Sa loob ng apatnapung araw, nagpakita siya sa kanila at nagsalita siya tungkol sa kaharian ng Diyos.
to whom also he showed himself alive, after he had suffered, with many signs, for forty days, appearing to them, and discoursing on the kingdom of Aloha.
4 Noong nakikipagkita pa siya sa kanila, iniutos niya sa kanila na huwag umalis ng Jerusalem, kundi maghintay sa pangako ng Ama na kung saan sinabi niya “Narinig ninyo mula sa akin
And when he had eaten bread with them, he directed them that from Urishlem they should not remove; but await the promise of the Father, which, you have heard from me.
5 na tunay na nagbautismo si Juan gamit ang tubig, ngunit kayo ay mababautismuhan sa Banal na Espiritu sa mga susunod na araw.''
For Juhanon baptized with waters, but you shall be baptized with the Spirit of Holiness after days not many.
6 Nang sama-sama silang nagkatipon tinanong nila siya, ''Panginoon, ito na ba ang oras na ibabalik mo ang kaharian sa Israel?''
But they when assembled asked him, and said to him, Our Lord, at this time wilt thou restore the kingdom to Israel?
7 Sinabi niya sa kanila, ''Hindi na para malaman ninyo ang mga oras o ang mga panahon na itinakda ng Ama sa kaniyang sariling kapamahalaan.
He saith to them, This is not yours to know the time or the times which the Father hath reposed in his own authority:
8 Ngunit makakatanggap kayo ng kapangyarihan, kapag sumainyo ang Banal na Espiritu at kayo ay magiging saksi ko sa Jerusalem at sa buong Judea at Samaria, at hanggang sa mga dulo ng mundo.''
but when the Spirit of Holiness hath come upon you, you shall receive power to be made unto me the witnesses, in Urishlem and in all Jehud, and also among the Shomroyee, and unto the confines of the earth.
9 Nang sabihin ng Panginoong Jesus ang mga bagay na ito, habang nakatingala sila, siya ay itinaas, at itinago siya ng ulap mula sa kanilang mga mata.
And as these he said, while they beheld him, he was taken up, and the cloud received him, and he was covered from their eyes.
10 Habang nakatitig sila sa langit nang siya ay paalis, bigla na lamang may dalawang lalaking nakatayo sa tabi nila na nakasuot ng puti.
And while they looked to the heavens as he went, two men were found standing with them in white vestments;
11 Sinabi nila, “Kayong mga lalaking taga-Galilea, bakit kayo nakatayo dito na nakatingin sa langit? Itong Jesus na umakyat sa langit ay babalik rin sa paraang katulad ng nakita ninyo na pagpunta niya sa langit.”
and they said to them, Men, Galiloyee, why stand you looking to the heavens 3? this Jeshu who is taken up from you into the heavens will so come as you have seen him ascend into the heavens.
12 At bumalik sila sa Jerusalem mula sa Bundok ng Olibo, na malapit sa Jerusalem, isang Araw ng Pamamahinga na paglalakbay.
And afterward they returned to Urishlem from the mount which is called the place of Olives, which is over against Urishlem, and distant from her as seven stadias.
13 Pagkarating nila, umakyat sila sa silid na nasa itaas, kung saan sila nananatili. Sila ay sina Pedro, Juan, Santiago, Andres, Filipe, Tomas, Bartolome, Mateo, Santiago na anak ni Alfeo, Simon na Makabayan at si Judas na anak ni Santiago.
And after they had entered, they ascended to that upper room in which were Petros, and Juhanon, and Jakub, and Andros, and Philipos, and Thoma, and Mathai, and Bar Tolmai, and Jakub bar Halphai, and Shemun the Zealous, and Jihuda bar Jakub.
14 Sama-sama silang nagkakaisa habang patuloy silang masigasig na nananalangin. Kasama rito ang mga kababaihang sina Maria na ina ni Jesus at ang kaniyang mga kapatid.
These altogether persevered in prayer with one soul, with the women, and with Mariam the mother of Jeshu, and with his brethren.
15 Sa mga araw na iyon, tumayo si Pedro sa kalagitnaan ng mga kapatid, na halos 120 katao at sinabi,
AND in those days arose Shemun Kipha in the midst of the disciples; -now there was there an assembly of men as an hundred and twenty; -and said,
16 “Mga kapatid, kinailangan na ang kasulatan ay matupad, na ang Banal na Espiritu ay magsalita sa pamamagitan ng bibig ni David tungkol kay Judas, na siyang gumabay sa mga dumakip kay Jesus.
Men, brethren, it was right for that scripture to be fulfilled which the Spirit of Holiness had before spoken, by the mouth of David, concerning Jihuda, who was the leader of them who took Jeshu.
17 Sapagkat nakasama natin siya at tinanggap ang kaniyang bahagi ng kapakinabangan sa ministeryong ito.”
For he had numbered with us, and had part in this ministry.
18 (Ngayon bumili ang taong ito ng bukid mula sa kaniyang natanggap kita dahil sa kaniyang kasamaan, at doon ay nahulog siya na nauna ang ulo, ang kanyang katawan ay sumambulat, at lahat ng kanyang bituka ay sumabog.
This is he who obtained the field with the wages of sin, and fell upon his face on the ground, and was severed in his middle, and all his bowels were shed forth.
19 Narinig ng lahat ng mga naninirahan sa Jerusalem ang tungkol dito, kaya tinawag nila ang bukid na iyon na “Akeldama,” na ang ibig sabihin sa kanilang salita ay, “Bukid ng Dugo”.)
And this hath been known of all who dwell in Urishlem; and so is called that field in the language of the country Hakel-damo, the interpretation of which is, A field of blood.
20 “Sapagkat nasusulat sa Aklat ng Mga Awit, 'Hayaan ninyong walang manirahan sa kaniyang bukirin, at huwag ninyong hayaan ang kahit na isang tao na manirahan doon'; at 'Hayaang may isang tao na kumuha sa kanyang posisyon ng pamumuno.'
For it is written in the book of Psalms: Let his habitation be desert, And no inhabitant be therein, And his ministry let another take.
21 Ito ay kinakailangan, samakatuwid, na isa sa mga kalalakihang nakasama natin sa lahat ng oras nang ang Panginoong Jesus ay kasa-kasama pa natin,
There needeth therefore one from these men who have been with us in all this time in which our Lord Jeshu hath come in and gone out among us,
22 simula sa pagbautismo ni Juan hanggang sa araw na kunin siya sa atin, dapat ay isa siyang saksing kasama natin sa kaniyang muling pagkabuhay.”
which went forth from the baptism of Juhanon until the day that he was taken up from (being) with us, to be with us a witness of his resurrection.
23 Naglapit sila sa harapan ng dalawang kalalakihan, si Jose na tinatawag na Barsabas, na pinangalanan ring Justo, at si Matias.
And they set up two: Jauseph, who is called Barshaba, who is surnamed Justus, and Mathia.
24 Nanalangin sila at sinabi, “Ikaw, Panginoon, ang nakakaalam ng puso ng lahat ng tao, kaya ipahayag mo kung sino sa dalawang ito ang iyong pinili
And praying, they said, Thou, Lord, (who) knowest the hearts of all, show the one whom thou choosest of these two,
25 upang pumalit sa gawaing ito at sa pagka-apostol mula nang si Judas ay lumabag upang magtungo sa kaniyang sariling lugar.''
that he may receive the part in the ministry and the apostleship from which Jihuda separated, to go unto his place.
26 Sila ay nagpalabunutan para sa kanila; at napunta kay Matias ang palabunutan at siya ang ibinilang na kasama ng labing-isang apostol.
And they cast the lots, and it came up unto Mathia; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
