ܫܠܝ̈ܚܐ 1
| ܟܬܒܐ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܟܬܒܬ ܐܘ ܬܐܘܦܝܠܐ ܥܠ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܫܪܝ ܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܡܥܒܕ ܘܠܡܠܦܘ | 1 |
I composed the first discourse, O Theophilus, concerning all things which Jesus began both to do and to teach,
| ܥܕܡܐ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܗ ܐܤܬܠܩ ܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܕܦܩܕ ܗܘܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܫܠܝܚܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܓܒܐ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ | 2 |
until that day in which, having by the Holy Spirit charged the apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up;
| ܗܢܘܢ ܕܐܦ ܚܘܝ ܠܗܘܢ ܢܦܫܗ ܟܕ ܚܝ ܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܕܚܫ ܒܐܬܘܬܐ ܤܓܝܐܬܐ ܒܝܘܡܝܢ ܐܪܒܥܝܢ ܟܕ ܡܬܚܙܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܥܠ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ | 3 |
to whom also he presented himself living, after he had suffered, with many proofs; being seen by them during forty days, and speaking of the things which concern the kingdom of God;
| ܘܟܕ ܐܟܠ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܦܩܕ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܠܐ ܢܦܪܩܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܕܢܩܘܘܢ ܠܫܘܘܕܝܗ ܕܐܒܐ ܗܘ ܕܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܡܢܝ | 4 |
and, being assembled with [them], commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to await the promise of the Father, which [said he] ye have heard of me.
| ܕܝܘܚܢܢ ܐܥܡܕ ܒܡܝܐ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܬܥܡܕܘܢ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܠܐ ܒܬܪ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ | 5 |
For John indeed baptised with water, but ye shall be baptised with the Holy Spirit after now not many days.
| ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܟܢܝܫܝܢ ܫܐܠܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܪܢ ܐܢ ܒܗܢܐ ܙܒܢܐ ܡܦܢܐ ܐܢܬ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܠܐܝܤܪܝܠ | 6 |
They therefore, being come together, asked him saying, Lord, is it at this time that thou restorest the kingdom to Israel?
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܗܘ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ ܗܕܐ ܠܡܕܥ ܙܒܢܐ ܐܘ ܙܒܢܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܒܐ ܤܡ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܢܦܫܗ | 7 |
And he said to them, It is not yours to know times or seasons, which the Father has placed in his own authority;
| ܐܠܐ ܟܕ ܬܐܬܐ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܬܩܒܠܘܢ ܚܝܠܐ ܘܬܗܘܘܢ ܠܝ ܤܗܕܐ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܒܟܠܗ ܝܗܘܕ ܘܐܦ ܒܝܬ ܫܡܪܝܐ ܘܥܕܡܐ ܠܤܘܦܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ | 8 |
but ye will receive power, the Holy Spirit having come upon you, and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.
| ܘܟܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܟܕ ܚܙܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܤܬܠܩ ܘܥܢܢܐ ܩܒܠܬܗ ܘܐܬܟܤܝ ܡܢ ܥܝܢܝܗܘܢ | 9 |
And having said these things he was taken up, they beholding [him], and a cloud received him out of their sight.
| ܘܟܕ ܚܝܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܟܕ ܗܘ ܐܙܠ ܗܘܐ ܐܫܬܟܚܘ ܬܪܝܢ ܓܒܪܝܢ ܩܝܡܝܢ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܒܠܒܘܫܐ ܚܘܪܐ | 10 |
And as they were gazing into heaven, as he was going, behold, also two men stood by them in white clothing,
| ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܓܠܝܠܝܐ ܡܢܐ ܩܝܡܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܚܝܪܝܢ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܗܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܐܤܬܠܩ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܠܫܡܝܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܢܐܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܚܙܝܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܕܤܠܩ ܠܫܡܝܐ | 11 |
who also said, Men of Galilee, why do ye stand looking into heaven? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven, shall thus come in the manner in which ye have beheld him going into heaven.
| ܘܡܢ ܒܬܪܟܢ ܗܦܟܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܡܢ ܛܘܪܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܙܝܬܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܥܠ ܓܢܒ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܦܪܝܩ ܡܢܗ ܐܝܟ ܫܒܥܐ ܐܤܛܕܘܢ | 12 |
Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called [the mount] of Olives, which is near Jerusalem, a sabbath-day's journey off.
| ܘܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܕܥܠܘ ܤܠܩܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܥܠܝܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܗܘܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܗ ܦܛܪܘܤ ܘܝܘܚܢܢ ܘܝܥܩܘܒ ܘܐܢܕܪܐܘܤ ܘܦܝܠܝܦܘܤ ܘܬܐܘܡܐ ܘܡܬܝ ܘܒܪ ܬܘܠܡܝ ܘܝܥܩܘܒ ܒܪ ܚܠܦܝ ܘܫܡܥܘܢ ܛܢܢܐ ܘܝܗܘܕܐ ܒܪ ܝܥܩܘܒ | 13 |
And when they were come into [the city], they went up to the upper chamber, where were staying both Peter, and John, and James, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James [son] of Alphaeus, and Simon the zealot, and Jude [the brother] of James.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܟܚܕܐ ܐܡܝܢܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܨܠܘܬܐ ܒܚܕܐ ܢܦܫ ܥܡ ܢܫܐ ܘܥܡ ܡܪܝܡ ܐܡܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܘܥܡ ܐܚܘܗܝ | 14 |
These gave themselves all with one accord to continual prayer, with [several] women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
| ܘܒܗܘܢ ܒܝܘܡܬܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܩܡ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܡܨܥܬ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܬܡܢ ܟܢܫܐ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܐܐ ܘܥܤܪܝܢ ܘܐܡܪ | 15 |
And in those days Peter, standing up in the midst of the brethren, said, (the crowd of names [who were] together [was] about a hundred and twenty, )
| ܓܒܪܐ ܐܚܝܢ ܙܕܩ ܗܘܐ ܕܢܬܡܠܐ ܟܬܒܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܩܕܡ ܐܡܪ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܒܦܘܡܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܥܠ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܗܘ ܕܗܘܐ ܡܕܒܪܢܐ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܕܐܚܕܘ ܠܝܫܘܥ | 16 |
Brethren, it was necessary that the scripture should have been fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before, by the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus;
| ܡܛܠ ܕܡܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܥܡܢ ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܦܤܐ ܒܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܗܕܐ | 17 |
for he was numbered amongst us, and had received a part in this service.
| ܗܢܘ ܕܩܢܐ ܠܗ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܡܢ ܐܓܪܐ ܕܚܛܝܬܐ ܘܢܦܠ ܥܠ ܐܦܘܗܝ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܘܐܬܦܪܬ ܡܢ ܡܨܥܬܗ ܘܐܬܐܫܕ ܟܠܗ ܓܘܝܗ | 18 |
(This [man] then indeed got a field with [the] reward of iniquity, and, having fallen down headlong, burst in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
| ܘܗܝ ܗܕܐ ܐܬܝܕܥܬ ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܥܡܪܝܢ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܗܟܢܐ ܐܬܩܪܝܬ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܗܝ ܒܠܫܢܗ ܕܐܬܪܐ ܚܩܠ ܕܡܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܬܘܪܓܡܗ ܩܘܪܝܬ ܕܡ | 19 |
And it was known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that that field was called in their own dialect Aceldama; that is, field of blood.)
| ܟܬܝܒ ܓܝܪ ܒܤܦܪܐ ܕܡܙܡܘܪܐ ܕܕܝܪܗ ܬܗܘܐ ܚܪܒܐ ܘܥܡܘܪ ܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܒܗ ܘܬܫܡܫܬܗ ܢܤܒ ܐܚܪܝܢ | 20 |
For it is written in [the] book of Psalms, Let his homestead become desolate, and let there be no dweller in it; and, Let another take his overseership.
| ܘܠܝܐ ܗܝ ܗܟܝܠ ܠܚܕ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܕܗܘܘ ܥܡܢ ܒܗܢܐ ܙܒܢܐ ܟܠܗ ܕܒܗ ܥܠ ܘܢܦܩ ܥܠܝܢ ܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ | 21 |
It is necessary therefore, that of the men who have assembled with us all [the] time in which the Lord Jesus came in and went out among us,
| ܕܐܩܦ ܡܢ ܡܥܡܘܕܝܬܗ ܕܝܘܚܢܢ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܕܐܤܬܠܩ ܡܢ ܠܘܬܢ ܕܗܘ ܢܗܘܐ ܥܡܢ ܤܗܕܐ ܕܩܝܡܬܗ | 22 |
beginning from the baptism of John until the day in which he was taken up from us, one of these should be a witness with us of his resurrection.
| ܘܐܩܝܡܘ ܬܪܝܢ ܠܝܘܤܦ ܕܡܬܩܪܐ ܒܪܫܒܐ ܕܐܫܬܡܝ ܝܘܤܛܘܤ ܘܠܡܬܝܐ | 23 |
And they appointed two, Joseph, who was called Barsabas, who had been surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
| ܘܟܕ ܨܠܝܘ ܐܡܪܘ ܐܢܬ ܡܪܝܐ ܝܕܥ ܕܒܠܒܘܬܐ ܕܟܠ ܚܘܐ ܚܕ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܓܒܐ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܪܝܗܘܢ | 24 |
And they prayed, and said, Thou Lord, knower of the hearts of all, shew which one of these two thou hast chosen,
| ܕܗܘ ܢܩܒܠ ܦܤܐ ܕܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܘܫܠܝܚܘܬܐ ܕܡܢܗ ܦܪܩ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܕܢܐܙܠ ܠܗ ܠܐܬܪܗ | 25 |
to receive the lot of this service and apostleship, from which Judas transgressing fell to go to his own place.
| ܘܐܪܡܝܘ ܦܨܐ ܘܤܠܩܬ ܠܡܬܝܐ ܘܐܬܡܢܝ ܥܡ ܚܕܥܤܪ ܫܠܝܚܐ | 26 |
And they gave lots on them, and the lot fell on Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
