Acts 1
1 Dear Theophilus, in my previous book I wrote about all that Jesus did and taught from the beginning
Prejšnje poročilo sem naredil, oh Teófil, o vsem, kar je Jezus začel, tako delati kakor učiti,
2 until the day he was taken up to heaven. This was after he'd given instructions through the Holy Spirit to his chosen apostles.
do dne, v katerem je bil vzet gor, potem ko je po Svetem Duhu dal zapovedi apostolom, ki jih je izbral;
3 Over the course of forty days after the death he suffered, he showed himself to them, proving that he was alive with convincing evidence. He appeared to them, and told them about the kingdom of God.
katerim se je, po svojem trpljenju, tudi pokazal živega, z mnogimi nezmotljivimi dokazi, ki so jih gledali štirideset dni in govorili o stvareh, ki se nanašajo na Božje kraljestvo;
4 While he was still with them he instructed them, “Do not leave Jerusalem. Wait to receive what the Father promised, just as you heard it from me.
in ko je bil zbran skupaj z njimi, jim je zapovedal, da naj ne odidejo iz Jeruzalema, temveč čakajo na Očetovo obljubo: »Katero, « on pravi, »ste slišali od mene.
5 It's true that John baptized with water, but in just a few days' time you will be baptized by the Holy Spirit.”
Kajti Janez je resnično krščeval z vodo, toda vi boste krščeni s Svetim Duhom, čez ne mnogo dni.«
6 So when the disciples met with Jesus, they asked him, “Lord, is this the time when you will re-establish Israel's kingdom?”
Ko so torej prišli skupaj, so ga vprašali, rekoč: »Gospod, ali boš v tem času Izraelu ponovno obnovil kraljestvo?«
7 “You don't need to know about the dates and times that are set by the Father's authority,” he told them.
In rekel jim je: »Ni za vas, da bi vedeli čase ali obdobja, ki jih je Oče postavil v svoji lastni oblasti.
8 “But you will be given power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the farthest places on earth.”
Toda prejeli boste moč, po tem, ko Sveti Duh pride nad vas, in vi mi boste priče, tako v Jeruzalemu kakor po vsej Judeji in v Samariji ter do skrajnega dela zemlje.«
9 After Jesus had told them this, he was taken up as they were watching and a cloud hid him from their sight.
In ko je govoril te besede, medtem ko so ga gledali, je bil vzet gor, in oblak ga je sprejel iz njihovega pogleda.
10 While they were staring intently at the sky as he ascended, two men dressed in white were suddenly standing beside them.
In medtem ko so neomajno gledali proti nebu, ko je šel gor, glej, sta poleg njih stala dva moža v belih oblekah,
11 “Men of Galilee, why are you standing here staring at the sky?” they asked. “This same Jesus who has been taken up from you to heaven shall come in the same way you saw him go into heaven.”
ki sta prav tako rekla: »Vi, možje iz Galileje, zakaj stojite strmeč v nebo? Ta isti Jezus, ki je bil od vas vzet gor v nebesa, bo prišel tako, na podoben način, kakor ste ga videli iti v nebo.«
12 Then the disciples went back to Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives which is about a Sabbath day's walk from Jerusalem.
Tedaj so se z gore, imenovane Oljska, ki je šabatni dan poti od Jeruzalema, vrnili v Jeruzalem.
13 When they arrived, they went upstairs to the upper room where they were staying: Peter, John, James and Andrew; Philip and Thomas; Bartholomew and Matthew; James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.
In ko so prišli vanj, so odšli gor v gornjo sobo, kjer so prebivali Peter in Jakob in Janez in Andrej, Filip in Tomaž, Bartolomej in Matej, Alfejev sin Jakob in Simon Gorečnik ter Jakobov brat Juda.
14 They all joined together in prayer, together with the women and Mary, Jesus' mother, and his brothers.
Vsi ti so soglasno vztrajali v molitvi in ponižni prošnji z ženskami in Marijo, Jezusovo materjo ter z njegovimi brati.
15 At this time Peter stood up and addressed a crowd of around one hundred and twenty believers who had gathered together.
In v tistih dneh je sredi učencev vstal Peter ter rekel (skupno število imen je bilo okoli sto dvajset):
16 “My brothers and sisters,” he said, “The Scriptures, spoken by the Holy Spirit through David, had to be fulfilled regarding Judas, who guided those who arrested Jesus.
»Možje in bratje, to pismo se je brezpogojno moralo izpolniti, ki ga je Sveti Duh po Davidovih ustih prej govoril glede Juda, ki je bil vodnik tem, ki so prijeli Jezusa.
17 He was counted as one of us, and shared in this ministry.”
Kajti bil je štet z nami in je dosegel delež te službe.
18 (Judas had bought a field with his ill-gotten gains. There he fell down headfirst, and his body burst apart, spilling out all his intestines.
Torej ta človek je s krivično nagrado kupil polje in ko je padel z glavo naprej, se je po sredi razpočil in vsa njegova notranjost se je izlila ven.
19 Everybody who lived in Jerusalem heard about this so that the field was called in their language “Akeldama,” which means, “Field of blood.”)
In to je bilo znano vsem jeruzalemskim prebivalcem, tako zelo, da se to polje v njihovem pravem jeziku imenuje Hakéldama, to se pravi: ›Njiva krvi.‹
20 As it's written in the book of Psalms, “Let his home be abandoned, and no-one live there;” and “Let someone else take over his position.”
Kajti pisano je v knjigi Psalmov: ›Naj bo njegovo prebivališče zapuščeno in naj noben človek ne prebiva v njem in njegovo duhovno nadzorništvo naj prevzame nekdo drug.‹
21 “So now we have to choose someone who has been with us the whole time that Jesus was with us,
Zatorej izmed teh ljudi, ki so se z nami družili ves čas, ko je Gospod Jezus hodil med nami noter in ven,
22 from the time John was baptizing up until the day Jesus was taken up to heaven from us. One of these must be chosen to join together with us as we witness, giving evidence of Jesus' resurrection.”
začenši od Janezovega krsta do tega istega dne, ko je bil od nas vzet gor, mora biti nekdo odrejen, da bo z nami priča njegovega vstajenja.«
23 Two names were put forward: Joseph Justus, also known as Barsabbas, and Matthias.
In določili so dva, Jožefa, imenovanega Bársaba, ki je bil imenovan z vzdevkom Just ter Matija.
24 They prayed together and said, “Lord, you know everyone's thoughts please show us which of these two you have chosen
In molili so ter rekli: »Ti, Gospod, ki poznaš srca vseh ljudi, pokaži, katerega izmed teh dveh si izbral,
25 to replace Judas as an apostle in this ministry that he gave up to go to where he belongs.”
da lahko prevzame del te službe in apostolstva, od katerega je Juda s prestopkom odpadel, da bi lahko šel na svoj lasten kraj.«
26 They cast lots, and Matthias was chosen. He was counted as an apostle with the other eleven.
In naznanili so svoje žrebe in žreb je padel na Matija in ta je bil prištet enajsterim apostolom.
