Acts 28
1 And after we had escaped, we then realized that the island was called Malta. Yet truly, the natives offered us no small amount of humane treatment.
In ko so bili rešeni, so potem izvedeli, da se otok imenuje Malta.
2 For they refreshed us all by kindling a fire, because rain was imminent and because of the cold.
In barbarsko ljudstvo nam je pokazalo ne malo prijaznosti, kajti prižgali so ogenj in nas zaradi navzočega dežja in zaradi mraza, vse sprejeli.
3 But when Paul had gathered together a bundle of twigs, and had placed them on the fire, a viper, which had been drawn to the heat, fastened itself to his hand.
In ko je Pavel nabral sveženj vej in jih položil na ogenj, je zaradi vročine ven prišel gad in se oprijel njegove roke.
4 And truly, when the natives saw the beast hanging from his hand, they were saying to one another: “Certainly, this man must be a murderer, for though he escaped from the sea, vengeance will not permit him to live.”
In ko so barbari videli strupeno žival viseti na njegovi roki, so med seboj govorili: »Brez dvoma je ta človek morilec, čeprav je ušel morju, ki mu maščevanje vendar ne pusti živeti.«
5 But shaking off the creature into the fire, he indeed suffered no ill effects.
On pa je žival otresel v ogenj in ni čutil nobene škode.
6 But they were supposing that he would soon swell up, and then would suddenly fall down and die. But having waited a long time, and seeing no ill effects in him, they changed their minds and were saying that he was a god.
Vendar so gledali, ko naj bi imel oteklino ali nenadoma padel mrtev. Toda potem, ko so dolgo časa gledali in so videli, da se mu ni zgodilo nič hudega, so spremenili svoja mišljenja in rekli, da je bil bog.
7 Now among these places were estates owned by the ruler of the island, named Publius. And he, taking us in, showed us kind hospitality for three days.
V istih četrtih so bile posesti vodilnega moža otoka, katerega ime je bilo Publij, ki nas je sprejel in nas tri dni prijazno prenočeval.
8 Then it happened that the father of Publius lay ill with a fever and with dysentery. Paul entered to him, and when he had prayed and had laid his hands on him, he saved him.
Pripetilo pa se je, da je Publijev oče ležal bolan zaradi vročice in zaradi krvave griže; h kateremu je vstopil Pavel in molil ter položil svoji roki nanj in ga ozdravil.
9 When this had been done, all who had diseases on the island approached and were cured.
Torej ko se je to zgodilo, so prišli tudi drugi, ki so na otoku imeli bolezni in so bili ozdravljeni,
10 And then they also presented us with many honors. And when we were ready to set sail, they gave us whatever we needed.
ki so nas prav tako počastili z mnogimi častmi. In ko smo odšli, so nas obložili s takšnimi stvarmi, kot je bilo potrebno.
11 And so, after three months, we sailed in a ship from Alexandria, whose name was ‘the Castors,’ and which had wintered at the island.
In po treh mesecih smo se vkrcali na ladjo iz Aleksandrije, ki je prezimila na otoku, katere znamenje sta bila Kastor in Poluks.
12 And when we had arrived at Syracuse, we were delayed there for three days.
In ko smo se izkrcali v Sirakuzi, smo se tam mudili tri dni.
13 From there, sailing close to the shore, we arrived at Rhegium. And after one day, with the south wind blowing, we arrived on the second day at Puteoli.
In od tam smo šli po ovinkih ter prišli v Région. In po enem dnevu je zapihal južni veter in naslednji dan smo prišli v Putéole,
14 There, after locating the brothers, we were asked to remain with them for seven days. And then we went on to Rome.
kjer smo našli brate in želeli so, da ostanemo z njimi sedem dni; in tako smo odšli proti Rimu.
15 And there, when the brothers had heard of us, they went to meet us as far as the Forum of Appius and the Three Taverns. And when Paul had seen them, giving thanks to God, he took courage.
In ko so bratje slišali o nas, so prišli od tam, da nas srečajo, prav do Apijevega trga in Treh Tavern. Ko jih je Pavel zagledal, se je zahvalil Bogu in se opogumil.
16 And when we had arrived at Rome, Paul was given permission to stay by himself, with a soldier to guard him.
In ko smo prišli v Rim, je stotnik jetnike izročil poveljniku straže, toda Pavlu je bilo dovoljeno, da prebiva sam zase z vojakom, ki ga je varoval.
17 And after the third day, he called together the leaders of the Jews. And when they had convened, he said to them: “Noble brothers, I have done nothing against the people, nor against the customs of the fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
In pripetilo se je, da je po treh dneh Pavel sklical skupaj judovske voditelje in ko so prišli skupaj, jim je rekel: »Možje in bratje, čeprav nisem ničesar zagrešil proti ljudem ali običajem naših očetov, sem bil vendarle jetnik, iz Jeruzalema izročen v roke Rimljanom.
18 And after they held a hearing about me, they would have released me, because there was no case for death against me.
Ki so me po zaslišanju hoteli izpustiti, ker na meni ni bilo razloga za smrt.
19 But with the Jews speaking against me, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, though it was not as if I had any kind of accusation against my own nation.
Toda ko so Judje temu ugovarjali, sem se bil primoran sklicevati na cesarja, ne da bi moral obtoževati svoj narod.
20 And so, because of this, I requested to see you and to speak to you. For it is because of the hope of Israel that I am encircled with this chain.”
Zaradi tega razloga sem vas torej dal poklicati, da vas vidim in spregovorim z vami, zato ker sem s to verigo zvezan zaradi Izraelovega upanja.«
21 But they said to him: “We have not received letters about you from Judea, nor have any of the other new arrivals among the brothers reported or spoken anything evil against you.
In rekli so mu: »Glede tebe nismo prejeli niti pisem iz Judeje niti nobeden izmed bratov, ki je prišel, [te] ni naznanil ali škodljivo govoril o tebi.
22 But we are asking to hear your opinions from you, for concerning this sect, we know that it is being spoken against everywhere.”
Toda od tebe želimo slišati, kaj misliš; kajti glede te ločine vemo, da ji povsod ugovarjajo.«
23 And when they had appointed a day for him, very many persons went to him at his guest quarters. And he discoursed, testifying to the kingdom of God, and persuading them about Jesus, using the law of Moses and the Prophets, from morning until evening.
In ko so mu določili dan, so mnogi prišli k njemu v njegovo stanovanje; katerim je od jutra do večera pojasnjeval in dokazoval Božje kraljestvo, jih prepričeval glede Jezusa, tako iz Mojzesove postave kakor iz prerokov.
24 And some believed the things that he was saying, yet others did not believe.
In nekateri so verjeli besedam, ki so bile govorjene, nekateri pa niso verjeli.
25 And when they could not agree among themselves, they departed, while Paul was speaking this one word: “How well did the Holy Spirit speak to our fathers through the prophet Isaiah,
In ko se med seboj niso strinjali, so odšli, po tem, ko je Pavel spregovoril eno besedo: »Dobro je Sveti Duh govoril našim očetom po preroku Izaiju,
26 saying: ‘Go to this people and say to them: Hearing, you shall hear and not understand, and seeing, you shall see and not perceive.
rekoč: ›Pojdi k tem ljudem in reci: ›S poslušanjem boste slišali, pa ne boste razumeli; in z gledanjem boste videli, pa ne zaznali;
27 For the heart of this people has grown dull, and they have listened with reluctant ears, and they have closed their eyes tightly, lest perhaps they might see with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and so be converted, and I would heal them.’
kajti srce teh ljudi je otopelo in njihova ušesa so naglušna in svoje oči so zaprli, da ne bi videli s svojimi očmi in [da ne bi] slišali s svojimi ušesi in [da ne bi] razumeli s svojim srcem in [da ne bi] bili spreobrnjeni in [bi] jih jaz ozdravil.‹‹
28 Therefore, let it be known to you, that this salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles, and they shall listen to it.”
Bodi vam torej znano, da je Božja rešitev duš poslana k poganom in da jo bodo poslušali.«
29 And when he had said these things, the Jews went away from him, though they still had many questions among themselves.
In ko je rekel te besede, so Judje odšli in med seboj imeli veliko razpravljanja.
30 Then he remained for two whole years in his own rented lodgings. And he received all who went in to him,
In Pavel je celi dve leti prebival v lastni najeti hiši in sprejemal vse, ki so prihajali k njemu
31 preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things which are from the Lord Jesus Christ, with all faithfulness, without prohibition.
ter z vso samozavestjo oznanjal Božje kraljestvo in učil te stvari, ki se tičejo Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa in noben človek mu ni branil.
