Acts 11
1 Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
Un tie apustuļi un brāļi Jūdu zemē dzirdēja, ka arī pagāni Dieva vārdu bija pieņēmuši.
2 When Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,
Un kad Pēteris uz Jeruzālemi nāca, tad tie apgraizītie ar to strīdējās,
3 saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”
Sacīdami: “Tu pie vīriem, kam ir priekšāda, esi iegājis un ar tiem ēdis.”
4 But Peter began, and explained to them in order, saying,
Bet Pēteris iesāka tiem pēc kārtas stāstīt sacīdams:
5 “I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.
“Es Joppes pilsētā Dievu lūdzu, un garā aizgrābts redzēju vienu parādīšanu: kādu trauku nonākam tā kā lielu palagu pie četriem stūriem nolaistu no debesīm, un tas nonāca pie manis.
6 When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky.
To skatīdams es ņēmu vērā un redzēju četrkājīgus lopus un zvērus un tārpus no zemes virsas un putnus, kas apakš debess.
7 I also heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter, kill and eat!’
Un es dzirdēju balsi uz mani sakām: “Celies, Pēteri, kauj un ēd.”
8 But I said, ‘Not so, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.’
Bet es sacīju: “Ak Kungs, ne mūžam! Jo nekas, kas ir negants un nešķīsts, nekad nav nācis manā mutē.”
9 But a voice answered me the second time out of heaven, ‘What God has cleansed, don’t you call unclean.’
Un balss no debess man atbildēja otrā kārtā: “Ko Dievs ir šķīstījis, to tev nebūs turēt par negantu.”
10 This was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.
Un tas notikās trim reizēm, un viss atkal tapa uzvilkts debesīs.
11 Behold, immediately three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.
Un redzi, tūdaļ trīs vīri, no Cezarejas pie manis sūtīti, stāvēja priekš tā nama, kur es biju.
12 The Spirit told me to go with them without discriminating. These six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered into the man’s house.
Un Tas Gars uz mani sacīja, lai es tiem ejot līdz bez šaubīšanās, un arī šie seši brāļi man gāja līdz, un mēs iegājām tā vīra namā.
13 He told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house and saying to him, ‘Send to Joppa and get Simon, who is called Peter,
Un tas mums stāstīja, kā tas vienu eņģeli bija redzējis savā namā stāvam un uz viņu sakām: “Sūti vīrus uz Joppi un ataicini Sīmani, ar pavārdu Pēteri.
14 who will speak to you words by which you will be saved, you and all your house.’
Šis tev vārdus sacīs, caur ko tu ar visu savu namu tapsi izglābts.”
15 As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as on us at the beginning.
Un kad es sāku runāt, tad Svētais gars uz tiem krita, tāpat kā arī iesākumā uz mums.
16 I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit.’
Un es pieminēju Tā Kunga vārdu, ka Viņš ir sacījis: “Jānis gan ar ūdeni kristījis, bet jūs tapsiet kristīti ar Svēto Garu.”
17 If then God gave to them the same gift as us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?”
Ja nu Dievs tiem tādu pat dāvanu devis kā arī mums, kas esam ticējuši uz To Kungu Jēzu Kristu, kas tad es biju, ka es būtu spējis Dievam to aizliegt?”
18 When they heard these things, they held their peace and glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life!”
Un tie to dzirdējuši bija ar mieru un teica Dievu sacīdami: “Tad nu Dievs arī pagāniem ir devis atgriešanos no grēkiem uz dzīvību.”
19 They therefore who were scattered abroad by the oppression that arose about Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except to Jews only.
Bet nu tie, kas bija izklīduši tai vajāšanā, kas Stefana dēļ bija cēlusies, izgāja līdz Feniķijai, Kiprai un Antioķijai, nevienam to vārdu nesludinādami kā vien Jūdiem.
20 But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the Lord Jesus.
Un viņu starpā bija kādi Kiprieši un Kirenieši, kas nākuši uz Antioķiju arī uz Grieķiem runāja, to evaņģēliju no Tā Kunga Jēzus mācīdami.
21 The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
Un Tā Kunga roka bija ar tiem, un liels pulks ticēja un atgriezās pie Tā Kunga.
22 The report concerning them came to the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem. They sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch,
Bet slava par tiem nāca ausīs tai Jeruzālemes draudzei; un tā sūtīja Barnabu, lai noietu līdz Antioķijai.
23 who, when he had come, and had seen the grace of God, was glad. He exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they should remain near to the Lord.
Šis nonācis un to Dieva žēlastību redzējis, priecājās un visus pamācīja, lai tie no sirds dibena apņemtos pie Tā Kunga palikt.
24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith, and many people were added to the Lord.
Jo viņš bija labs vīrs un Svētā Gara un ticības pilns. Un labs ļaužu pulks Tam Kungam tapa pievests,
25 Barnabas went out to Tarsus to look for Saul.
Un Barnaba izgāja uz Tarsu, Saulu meklēt, un to atradis, viņš to noveda uz Antioķiju.
26 When he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they were gathered together with the assembly, and taught many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
Un notikās, ka tie veselu gadu kopā bija tai draudzē un mācīja labu pulku, un ka Antioķijā tos mācekļus sāka saukt par kristīgiem.
27 Now in these days, prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
Un tanīs dienās pravieši nāca no Jeruzālemes uz Antioķiju.
28 One of them named Agabus stood up and indicated by the Spirit that there should be a great famine all over the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius.
Un viens no tiem, ar vārdu Agabs, cēlās un pasludināja caur To Garu, ka liels bada laiks nākšot pār visu pasauli: tas arī noticis apakš Ķeizara Klaudius.
29 As any of the disciples had plenty, each determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea;
Un tie mācekļi apņēmās, kā kurš spēja, ko labu par palīgu sūtīt tiem brāļiem, kas dzīvoja Jūdu zemē.
30 which they also did, sending it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
To tie arī darīja, un tiem vecajiem to sūtīja caur Barnabas un Saula roku.
