Acts 14
1 Now in Iconium they went together to the Synagogue of the Jews and gave such teaching that a great number of Jews and Greeks had faith.
Di Ikoniumpun kedua rasul itu masuk ke rumah ibadat orang Yahudi, lalu mengajar sedemikian rupa, sehingga sejumlah besar orang Yahudi dan orang Yunani menjadi percaya.
2 But those Jews who had not the faith, made the minds of the Gentiles bitter against the brothers.
Tetapi orang-orang Yahudi, yang menolak pemberitaan mereka, memanaskan hati orang-orang yang tidak mengenal Allah dan membuat mereka gusar terhadap saudara-saudara itu.
3 So they kept there for a long time, taking heart in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace by causing signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Paulus dan Barnabas tinggal beberapa waktu lamanya di situ. Mereka mengajar dengan berani, karena mereka percaya kepada Tuhan. Dan Tuhan menguatkan berita tentang kasih karunia-Nya dengan mengaruniakan kepada mereka kuasa untuk mengadakan tanda-tanda dan mujizat-mujizat.
4 But there was a division among the people of the town; some were on the side of the Jews and some on the side of the Apostles.
Tetapi orang banyak di kota itu terbelah menjadi dua: ada yang memihak kepada orang Yahudi, ada pula yang memihak kepada kedua rasul itu.
5 And when a violent attempt was made by the Gentiles and the Jews, with their rulers, to make an attack on them and have them stoned,
Maka mulailah orang-orang yang tidak mengenal Allah dan orang-orang Yahudi bersama-sama dengan pemimpin-pemimpin mereka menimbulkan suatu gerakan untuk menyiksa dan melempari kedua rasul itu dengan batu.
6 Having got news of it, they went in flight to the towns of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and the country round about:
Setelah rasul-rasul itu mengetahuinya, menyingkirlah mereka ke kota-kota di Likaonia, yaitu Listra dan Derbe dan daerah sekitarnya.
7 And went on preaching the good news there.
Di situ mereka memberitakan Injil.
8 And at Lystra there was a certain man, who from birth had been without the use of his feet, never having had the power of walking.
Di Listra ada seorang yang duduk saja, karena lemah kakinya dan lumpuh sejak ia dilahirkan dan belum pernah dapat berjalan.
9 This man was giving ear to the preaching of Paul, who, looking at him, and seeing that he had faith to be made well,
Ia duduk mendengarkan, ketika Paulus berbicara. Dan Paulus menatap dia dan melihat, bahwa ia beriman dan dapat disembuhkan.
10 Said in a loud voice, Get up on your feet. And, jumping up, he went walking about.
Lalu kata Paulus dengan suara nyaring: "Berdirilah tegak di atas kakimu!" Dan orang itu melonjak berdiri, lalu berjalan kian ke mari.
11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they said in a loud voice, in the language of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the form of men.
Ketika orang banyak melihat apa yang telah diperbuat Paulus, mereka itu berseru dalam bahasa Likaonia: "Dewa-dewa telah turun ke tengah-tengah kita dalam rupa manusia."
12 And they gave the name of Jupiter to Barnabas, and to Paul that of Mercury, because he was the chief talker.
Barnabas mereka sebut Zeus dan Paulus mereka sebut Hermes, karena ia yang berbicara.
13 And the priest of the image of Jupiter, which was before the town, took oxen and flowers to the doors of the town, and was about to make an offering with the people.
Maka datanglah imam dewa Zeus, yang kuilnya terletak di luar kota, membawa lembu-lembu jantan dan karangan-karangan bunga ke pintu gerbang kota untuk mempersembahkan korban bersama-sama dengan orang banyak kepada rasul-rasul itu.
14 But when this came to the ears of the Apostles, Paul and Barnabas, they went running out among the people, parting their clothing, and crying out,
Mendengar itu Barnabas dan Paulus mengoyakkan pakaian mereka, lalu terjun ke tengah-tengah orang banyak itu sambil berseru:
15 Good people, why are you doing these things? We are men with the same feelings as you, and we give you the good news so that you may be turned away from these foolish things to the living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all things in them:
"Hai kamu sekalian, mengapa kamu berbuat demikian? Kami ini adalah manusia biasa sama seperti kamu. Kami ada di sini untuk memberitakan Injil kepada kamu, supaya kamu meninggalkan perbuatan sia-sia ini dan berbalik kepada Allah yang hidup, yang telah menjadikan langit dan bumi, laut dan segala isinya.
16 Who in the past let all nations go in the ways which seemed good to them.
Dalam zaman yang lampau Allah membiarkan semua bangsa menuruti jalannya masing-masing,
17 But he was not without witness, because he did good, and gave you rain from heaven and times of fruit, making your hearts full of food and joy.
namun Ia bukan tidak menyatakan diri-Nya dengan berbagai-bagai kebajikan, yaitu dengan menurunkan hujan dari langit dan dengan memberikan musim-musim subur bagi kamu. Ia memuaskan hatimu dengan makanan dan kegembiraan."
18 And even with these words, it was hard for them to keep the people from making an offering to them.
Walaupun rasul-rasul itu berkata demikian, namun hampir-hampir tidak dapat mereka mencegah orang banyak mempersembahkan korban kepada mereka.
19 But some Jews came to that place from Antioch and Iconium, and got control over the people; and after stoning Paul, they had him pulled out of the town, taking him for dead.
Tetapi datanglah orang-orang Yahudi dari Antiokhia dan Ikonium dan mereka membujuk orang banyak itu memihak mereka. Lalu mereka melempari Paulus dengan batu dan menyeretnya ke luar kota, karena mereka menyangka, bahwa ia telah mati.
20 But when the disciples came round him, he got up and went into the town: and the day after he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.
Akan tetapi ketika murid-murid itu berdiri mengelilingi dia, bangkitlah ia lalu masuk ke dalam kota. Keesokan harinya berangkatlah ia bersama-sama dengan Barnabas ke Derbe.
21 And having made a number of disciples through the preaching of the good news in that town, they went back to Lystra and Iconium and Antioch,
Paulus dan Barnabas memberitakan Injil di kota itu dan memperoleh banyak murid. Lalu kembalilah mereka ke Listra, Ikonium dan Antiokhia.
22 Making strong the souls of the disciples, saying to them that they were to keep the faith, and that we have to go through troubles of all sorts to come into the kingdom of God.
Di tempat itu mereka menguatkan hati murid-murid itu dan menasihati mereka supaya mereka bertekun di dalam iman, dan mengatakan, bahwa untuk masuk ke dalam Kerajaan Allah kita harus mengalami banyak sengsara.
23 And when they had made selection of some to be rulers in every church, and had given themselves to prayer and kept themselves from food, they put them into the care of the Lord in whom they had faith.
Di tiap-tiap jemaat rasul-rasul itu menetapkan penatua-penatua bagi jemaat itu dan setelah berdoa dan berpuasa, mereka menyerahkan penatua-penatua itu kepada Tuhan, yang adalah sumber kepercayaan mereka.
24 And they went through Pisidia and came to Pamphylia.
Mereka menjelajah seluruh Pisidia dan tiba di Pamfilia.
25 And, after preaching the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia;
Di situ mereka memberitakan firman di Perga, lalu pergi ke Atalia, di pantai.
26 And from there they went by ship to Antioch, where they had been handed over to the grace of God for the work which they had not done.
Dari situ berlayarlah mereka ke Antiokhia; di tempat itulah mereka dahulu diserahkan kepada kasih karunia Allah untuk memulai pekerjaan, yang telah mereka selesaikan.
27 And when they came there, and had got the church together, they gave them an account of all the things which God had done through them, and how he had made open a door of faith to the Gentiles.
Setibanya di situ mereka memanggil jemaat berkumpul, lalu mereka menceriterakan segala sesuatu yang Allah lakukan dengan perantaraan mereka, dan bahwa Ia telah membuka pintu bagi bangsa-bangsa lain kepada iman.
28 And they were with the disciples there for a long time.
Di situ mereka lama tinggal bersama-sama dengan murid-murid itu.
