Acts 13
1 Among the members of the church at Antioch there were several prophets and teachers – Barnabas, Simeon who was known by the name of ‘Black’, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen, foster-brother of Prince Herod, and Saul.
Torej v cerkvi, ki je bila v Antiohiji, so bili določeni preroki in učitelji, kot Barnaba in Simeon, ki so ga imenovali Niger in Lukij iz Cirene in Manaén, ki je bil vzgojen s Herodom, vladarjem četrtinskega dela province ter Savel.
2 While they were engaged in the worship of the Lord and were fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul, for the work to which I have called them.”
Medtem ko so služili Gospodu in se postili, je Sveti Duh rekel: »Oddvojite mi Barnaba in Savla za delo, kamor sem ju poklical.«
3 Accordingly, after fasting and prayer, they placed their hands on them and dismissed them.
In ko so se postili ter molili in svoje roke položili nanju, so ju odposlali.
4 Barnabas and Saul, sent on this mission, as they were, by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia, and from there sailed to Cyprus.
Tako sta, odposlana po Svetem Duhu, odšla v Selevkíjo in od tam sta odjadrala na Ciper.
5 On reaching Salamis, they began to tell the message of God in the Jewish synagogues; and they had John with them as an assistant.
In ko sta bila v Salamini, sta v judovskih sinagogah oznanjala Božjo besedo in za svojo službo sta imela tudi Janeza.
6 After passing through the whole island, they reached Paphos, where they found an astrologer who pretended to be a prophet – a Jew by birth, whose name was Barjoshua.
In ko sta šla prek otoka do Pafosa, sta našla nekega čarodeja, lažnega preroka, Juda, katerega ime je bilo Barjezus,
7 He was at the court of the Governor, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who sent for Barnabas and Saul and asked to be told God’s message.
ki je bil z namestnikom dežele, Sergijem Pavlom, razsodnim človekom, ki je dal poklicati Barnaba in Savla ter želel slišati Božjo besedo.
8 But Elymas, the astrologer (for that is the meaning of the word), opposed them, eager to divert the Governor’s attention from the faith.
Toda čarodej Elíma (kajti takšno je po razlagi njegovo ime), se jima je zoperstavil ter si prizadeval namestnika odvrniti od vere.
9 However, Saul (who is the same as Paul), full of the Holy Spirit, fixed his eyes on him and said,
Potem je Savel (ki se imenuje tudi Pavel), izpolnjen s Svetim Duhom, svoje oči uprl vanj
10 “You incarnation of deceit and all fraud! You son of the devil! You opponent of all that is good! Will you never cease to divert the straight paths of the Lord? Listen!
in rekel: »Oh poln vseh premetenosti in vseh vragolij, ti hudičev otrok, ti sovražnik vse pravičnosti, ali ne boš prenehal izkrivljati Gospodovih ravnih poti?
11 The hand of the Lord is on you even now, and you will be blind for a time and unable to see the sun.” Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him, and he went feeling about for someone to guide him.
In sedaj glej, Gospodova roka je nad teboj in oslepel boš ter za nekaj časa ne boš videl sonca.« In takoj sta padla nanj zamegljenost in tema in krožil je ter iskal nekoga, da ga vodi za roko.
12 When the Governor saw what had happened, he became a believer in Christ, being greatly impressed by the teaching about the Lord.
Potem je namestnik, ko je videl, kaj se je zgodilo, veroval in bil osupel nad Gospodovim naukom.
13 After this, Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos and went to Perga in Pamphylia, where John left them and returned to Jerusalem.
Torej ko so Pavel in njegova skupina odpluli iz Pafosa, so prišli v Pergo v Pamfiliji. Janez pa se je ločil od njiju in se vrnil v Jeruzalem.
14 The others went on from Perga and arrived at Antioch in Pisidia. There they went into the synagogue on the Sabbath and took their seats.
Toda ko sta se odpravila iz Perge, sta prišla v Antiohijo v Pizidiji in na šabatni dan odšla v sinagogo ter se usedla.
15 After the reading of the Law and the prophets, the synagogue leader sent them this message – “Friends, if you have any helpful words to address to the people, now is the time to speak.”
Po branju postave in prerokov pa so predstojniki sinagoge poslali ponju, rekoč: » Vidva moža in brata, če imata kako spodbudno besedo za ljudi, povejta.«
16 So Paul rose and, motioning with his hand, said: “People of Israel and all here who worship God, hear what I have to say.
Tedaj je Pavel vstal in s svojo roko dal znamenje ter rekel: »Možje Izraelci in vi, ki se bojite Boga, poslušajte.
17 The God of this people Israel chose our ancestors, and during their stay in Egypt increased the prosperity of the people, and then with uplifted arm brought them out from that land.
Bog teh ljudi iz Izraela je izbral naše očete in povišal ljudi, ko so kot tujci prebivali v egiptovski deželi in jih s povzdignjenim laktom privedel ven iz nje.
18 For about forty years he bore with them in the desert;
In približno okoli štirideset let je prenašal njihovo obnašanje v divjini.
19 then, after destroying seven heathen nations in Canaan, he allotted their land to this people –
In ko je v kánaanski deželi uničil sedem narodov, jim je njihovo deželo razdelil z žrebom.
20 For about four hundred and fifty years. In later times he gave them Judges, of whom the prophet Samuel was the last.
Nató pa jim je dajal sodnike za približno štiristo petdeset let, do preroka Samuela.
21 And, when they demanded a king, God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, who reigned for forty years.
In zatem so zahtevali kralja in Bog jim je dal Savla, Kiševega sina, moža iz Benjaminovega rodu, za približno štirideset let.
22 After removing him, he raised David to the throne, and bore this testimony to him – ‘In David, the son of Jesse, I have found a man after my own heart, who will carry out all my purposes.’
In ko ga je odstranil, jim je dvignil Davida, da bi bil njihov kralj, ki mu je dal tudi pričevanje ter rekel: ›Našel sem Davida, Jesejevega sina, moža po svojem lastnem srcu, ki bo izpolnil vso mojo voljo.‹
23 It was from this man’s descendants that God, in accordance with his promise, gave Israel a Savior – Jesus;
Iz semena tega človeka je Bog, glede na svojo obljubo, Izraelu obudil Odrešenika, Jezusa,
24 John having first proclaimed, before the appearance of Jesus, a baptism on repentance for all the people of Israel.
ko je pred njegovim prihodom Janez oznanjal krst kesanja vsem ljudem iz Izraela.
25 As John was drawing towards the end of his career, he said ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not the Christ. But there is “one coming” after me, whose sandal I am not worthy to untie.’
In ko je Janez izpolnil svoj tek, je rekel: ›Kdo mislite, da sem jaz? Jaz nisem on. Toda glejte, za menoj prihaja nekdo, čigar čevljev z njegovih stopal nisem vreden odvezati.‹
26 Brothers and sisters, descendants of Abraham, and all those among you who worship God, it was to us that the message of this salvation was sent.
Možje in bratje, otroci Abrahamove rase ter kdorkoli se med vami boji Boga, vam je poslana beseda te rešitve duš.
27 The people of Jerusalem and their leaders, failing to recognize Jesus, and not understanding the utterances of the prophets that are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.
Kajti tisti, ki prebivajo v Jeruzalemu in njihovi vladarji, ker niso spoznali njega niti glasov prerokov, ki se berejo vsak šabatni dan, so jih izpolnili z njegovo obsodbo.
28 They found no ground at all for putting him to death, and yet demanded his execution from Pilate;
In čeprav na njem niso našli nobenega razloga za smrt, so od Pilata zahtevali, da naj bi bil umorjen.
29 and, after carrying out everything written about him, they took Jesus down from the cross, and laid him in a tomb.
In ko so izpolnili vse, kar je bilo pisano o njem, so ga sneli z lesa ter ga položili v mavzolej.
30 But God raised him from the dead;
Toda Bog ga je obudil od mrtvih,
31 and he appeared for many days to those who had gone up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, and who are now witnesses for him to the people.
in mnogo dni so ga videli tisti, ki so prišli z njim iz Galileje v Jeruzalem, ki so njegove priče ljudem.
32 We also have good news to tell you, about the promise made to our ancestors –
In mi vam razodevamo vesele novice, kako je to obljubo, ki je bila narejena očetom,
33 That our children have had this promise completely fulfilled to them by God, by his raising Jesus. That is just what is said in the second Psalm – ‘You are my Son; this day I have become your Father.’
Bog izpolnil nam, njihovim otrokom, v tem, da je ponovno dvignil Jezusa, kakor je tudi pisano v drugem psalmu: ›Ti si moj Sin, danes sem te rodil.‹
34 As to his raising Jesus from the dead, never again to return to corruption, this is what is said – ‘I will give to you the sacred promises made to David;’
In glede na to, da ga je obudil od mrtvih, sedaj ni več vrnitve k trohnenju, je rekel na ta način: ›Dal vam bom zanesljive Davidove milosti.‹
35 And, therefore, in another Psalm it is said – ‘You will not give up the Holy One to undergo corruption.’
Zato tudi pravi v še enem psalmu: ›Svojemu Svetemu ne boš dal videti trohnenja.‹
36 David, after obediently doing God’s will in his own time, fell asleep and was laid by the side of his ancestors, and did undergo corruption;
Kajti David je, potem ko je po Božji volji služil svojemu lastnemu rodu, zaspal in bil položen k svojim očetom ter videl trohnenje,
37 but Jesus, whom God raised from the dead, did not undergo corruption.
toda ta, ki ga je Bog ponovno obudil, ni videl trohnenja.
38 I would, therefore, like you to know, friends, that through Jesus forgiveness of sins is being proclaimed to you,
Naj bo torej znano vam, možje in bratje, da se vam po tem človeku oznanjuje odpuščanje grehov,
39 and that, in union with him, everyone who believes in him is absolved from every sin from which under the Law of Moses you could not be absolved.
in po njem ste vsi, ki verujete, opravičeni vseh stvari, od katerih niste mogli biti opravičeni po Mojzesovi postavi.
40 Beware, therefore, that what is said in the prophets does not come true of you –
Pazite se torej, da ne pride nad vas to, o čemer je govora v prerokih:
41 ‘Look, you despisers, and wonder, and perish; for I am doing a deed in your days – a deed which, though told you in full, you will never believe’.”
›Glejte, vi prezirljivci in čudite se ter izginite, kajti v vaših dneh delam delo, delo katerega nikakor ne boste verovali, četudi vam ga človek razodene.‹«
42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people begged for a repetition of this teaching on the next Sabbath.
In ko so Judje odšli iz sinagoge, so pogani prosili, da bi jim bile te besede lahko oznanjene naslednjo šabat.
43 After the congregation had dispersed, many of the Jews, and of the converts who joined in their worship, followed Paul and Barnabas, who talked with them and urged them to continue to rely on the loving kindness of God.
Torej ko je bila skupnost razpuščena, so mnogi izmed Judov in religioznih spreobrnjencev sledili Pavlu in Barnabu, ki sta jim govorila in jih prepričevala naj nadaljujejo v Božji milosti.
44 On the following Sabbath, almost all the city gathered to hear God’s message.
Naslednji šabatni dan pa je prišlo skupaj skoraj celotno mesto, da sliši Božjo besedo.
45 But the sight of the crowds of people filled the minds of the Jews with jealousy, and they kept contradicting Paul’s statements in violent language.
Toda ko so Judje videli množice, so bili izpolnjeni z zavistjo in ugovarjali ter preklinjali in govorili proti tem stvarem, ki jih je govoril Pavel.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas spoke out fearlessly, and said: “It was necessary that the message of God should be told to you first; but, since you reject it and reckon yourselves not worthy of the eternal life – we turn to the Gentiles! (aiōnios g166)
Tedaj sta Pavel in Barnaba postala pogumna in rekla: »Potrebno je bilo, da bi se Božja beseda najprej spregovorila vam, toda ker ste jo postavili proč od sebe in sebe sodite nevredne večnega življenja, glejte, se obračava k poganom. (aiōnios g166)
47 For this is the Lord’s command to us – ‘I have destined you for a light to the Gentiles, a means of salvation to the ends of the earth’.”
Kajti tako nam je ukazal Gospod, rekoč: ›Postavil sem te, da bi bil svetloba poganom, da naj bi bil za rešitev duš do koncev zemlje.‹«
48 On hearing this, the Gentiles were glad and extolled God’s message; and all those who had been enrolled for eternal life became believers in Christ; (aiōnios g166)
In ko so pogani to slišali, so bili veseli in slavili Gospodovo besedo; in kolikor jih je bilo odrejenih za večno življenje, je verovalo. (aiōnios g166)
49 and the Lord’s message was carried throughout that district.
In Gospodova beseda je bila razglašena po vsem celotnem področju.
50 But the Jews incited the women of high social standing who worshiped with them, and the leading men of the town, and started a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their region.
Toda Judje so razvneli predane in častitljive ženske ter vodilne može mesta ter dvignili preganjanje zoper Pavla in Barnaba ter ju izgnali iz svojih krajev.
51 They, however, shook the dust off their feet in protest,
Vendar sta proti njim otresla prah s svojih stopal in prišla v Ikónij.
52 and went to Iconium, leaving the disciples full of joy and of the Holy Spirit.
Učenci pa so bili izpolnjeni z radostjo in s Svetim Duhom.
