Acts 12
1 Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.
Un ap to pašu laiku ķēniņš Hērodus kādiem no tās draudzes pielika rokas, tiem ļaunu darīdams,
2 He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
Un nokāva ar zobenu Jēkabu, Jāņa brāli.
3 When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.
Un redzēdams, ka tas tiem Jūdu ļaudīm patika, viņš turklāt arī vēl Pēteri sagrāba, (bet bija tās neraudzētās maizes dienas)
4 When he had arrested him, he put him in prison and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
Un sagrābis to lika cietumā, un to nodeva sešpadsmit karavīriem, kas pa četriem to sargāja, gribēdams viņu pēc Lieldienas tiem ļaudīm vest priekšā.
5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
Tad nu Pēteris cietumā tapa sargāts; bet tā draudze bez mitēšanās lūdza Dievu par viņu.
6 The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.
Un kad Hērodus viņu gribēja priekšā vest, tanī pašā naktī Pēteris gulēja starp diviem karavīriem, ar divām ķēdēm saistīts, un tie sargi priekš durvīm sargāja to cietumu.
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Stand up quickly!” His chains fell off his hands.
Un redzi, Tā Kunga eņģelis piestājās, un gaišums spīdēja tanī ēkā; un viņš piesita Pēterim pie sāniem un to uzmodināja sacīdams: “Celies drīz!” Un ķēdes nokrita no viņa rokām.
8 The angel said to him, “Get dressed and put on your sandals.” He did so. He said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
Un tas eņģelis uz to sacīja: “Apjozies un apauni kājas!” Un tas tā darīja. Un viņš uz to sacīja: “Apmet savu mēteli un nāc man līdz.”
9 And he went out and followed him. He did not know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
Un tas iznācis viņam gāja līdz un nezināja to tiešām caur eņģeli notiekam; bet tam likās, ka redzot kādu parādīšanu.
10 When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.
Un caur pirmo un otru vakti gājuši, tie nāca pie tiem dzelzs vārtiem, kas iet uz pilsētu; tie paši no sevis tiem atdarījās; un izgājuši tie vienu ielu nostaigāja un tūdaļ tas eņģelis no tā atstājās.
11 When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”
Un Pēteris atjēdzies sacīja: “Tagad es tiešām zinu, ka Tas Kungs Savu eņģeli ir sūtījis un mani izpestījis no Hērodus rokas un no visas Jūdu ļaužu gaidīšanas.”
12 Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
Un to nopratis viņš nāca pie Marijas nama, kas bija māte Jānim, kam pavārds Marks; tur daudz bija sapulcējušies Dievu lūgt.
13 When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
Un Pēterim pie vārtu durvīm klaudzinot, viena kalpone, ar vārdu Rode, nāca klausīties.
14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, she did not open the gate for joy, but ran in and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
Un Pētera balsi pazīdama, tā aiz prieka tos vārtus neatdarīja, bet ietecēja un pasludināja, ka Pēteris stāvot priekš vārtiem.
15 They said to her, “You are crazy!” But she insisted that it was so. They said, “It is his angel.”
Bet tie uz viņu sacīja: “Vai tu traka?” Bet viņa uz to pastāvēja, tā esot. Bet tie sacīja: “Tas ir viņa eņģelis.”
16 But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him and were amazed.
Bet Pēteris joprojām klaudzināja; un atdarījuši tie viņu redzēja un iztrūkās.
17 But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place.
Bet viņš meta ar roku, lai būtu klusu, un tiem stāstīja, kā Tas Kungs viņu bija izvedis no cietuma. Un viņš sacīja: “Pasakiet to Jēkabam un tiem brāļiem;” un viņš izgājis devās uz citu vietu.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
Un kad gaisma ausa, tad tie karavīri gauži iztrūkās, kas gan ar Pēteri esot noticis.
19 When Herod had sought for him and did not find him, he examined the guards, then commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
Bet kad Hērodus viņu bija meklējis un nebija atradis, tad viņš tos sargus priekš tiesas izvaicājis pavēlēja, tos novest (pie nāves); un viņš nogāja no Jūdu zemes uz Cezareju un tur mita.
20 Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.
Un Hērodus apņēmās karot pret Tirus un Sidonas ļaudīm; bet tie nāca vienprātīgi pie viņa, un pārrunājuši Blastu, kas bija uzraugs pār tā ķēniņa guļamo kambari, tie lūdza mieru, tāpēc ka viņu zeme savu uzturu ņēma no ķēniņa zemes.
21 On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
Un kādā noliktā dienā Hērodus aptērpās ar ķēniņa drēbēm un sēdēja uz goda krēsla un uz tiem runāja ļaužu priekšā.
22 The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
Un tie ļaudis uzkliedza: “Tā ir dieva un ne cilvēka balss.”
23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he did not give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.
Un tūdaļ Tā Kunga eņģelis viņu sita, tāpēc ka viņš Dievam to godu nedeva. Un viņš no tārpiem tapa ēsts un nomira.
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
Bet Dieva vārds auga un vairojās.
25 Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John who was called Mark.
Bet Barnaba un Sauls, kad tie to palīdzību bija nonesuši, griezās atpakaļ no Jeruzālemes un ņēma līdz arī Jāni, ar pavārdu Marks.
