Acts 12
1 It was about this time that King Herod [Agrippa sent soldiers] [MTY] who seized [and put in prison] some of the [leaders] of the congregation [in Jerusalem. He did that] because he wanted to make the believers suffer.
Abban az időben pedig Heródes király kegyetlenkedni kezdett némelyekkel, a gyülekezetből valók közül.
2 He commanded [a soldier] to cut off the head of [the apostle] James, the [older] brother of [the apostle] John.
Fegyverrel ölette meg Jakabot, Jánosnak testvérét.
3 When Herod realized that he had pleased the [leaders of the] Jewish people by [doing that], he commanded [soldiers] to arrest Peter [in order to kill him], too. This happened during the festival [when the Jewish people ate] bread [that] did not have yeast.
Amikor látta, hogy ez tetszik a zsidóknak, elhatározta magában, hogy elfogatja Pétert is. (Akkor pedig a kovásztalan kenyerek napjai voltak.)
4 After [they] seized Peter, they put him in prison. They arranged for four groups of soldiers to guard Peter. Each [group] had four soldiers. [Every three hours a different group began to guard him while the others rested]. Herod wanted to bring Peter out [of prison and judge him] in front of the [Jewish] people after the Passover [Festival was finished. He then planned to command soldiers to execute Peter].
El is fogatta, tömlöcbe vettette, átadta négy négyes katonai szakasznak, hogy őrizzék, mert húsvét után akarta a nép elé vezettetni.
5 So [for several days] Peter was kept {they kept Peter} in prison. But the [other believers] in the congregation at [Jerusalem] were praying earnestly to God [that he would help] Peter.
Pétert tehát a börtönben őrizték, a gyülekezet pedig szüntelen könyörgött az Istennek ő érte.
6 The night [before] Herod planned to bring Peter out [from prison to have him executed] publicly, Peter was sleeping [in the prison] between two soldiers, with two chains binding his arms [to the arms of the soldiers. Two other] soldiers were guarding the prison doors.
Amikor pedig Heródes elő akarta vezettetni, azon az éjszakán Péter két vitéz között aludt, megkötözve két lánccal, és őrök őrizték az ajtó előtt a tömlöcöt.
7 Suddenly an angel [from] the Lord [God] stood [beside Peter], and a [bright] light shone in his cell. The angel poked Peter in the side and woke him up and said, “Get up quickly!” [While Peter was getting up], the chains fell off from his wrists. [However, the soldiers were not aware of what was happening].
És íme, az Úrnak angyala eljött, és világosság fénylett a tömlöcben: meglökte Péter oldalát, felkeltette őt, és ezt mondta: „Kelj föl hamar!“És leestek a láncok a kezeiről.
8 Then the angel said to Peter, “Put on your clothes and sandals!” So Peter did. Then the angel said to him, “Fasten your belt/girdle [around you(sg)] and put on your sandals!” So Peter did that. Then the angel told him, “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me!”
Ezt mondta neki az angyal: „Övezd fel magadat, és kösd fel saruidat.“És úgy cselekedett. Azután pedig ezt mondta neki: „Vedd fel felsőruhádat, és kövess engem!“
9 So, [after Peter put on his cloak and sandals], he followed [the angel] out [of the prison cell], but he had no idea that what the angel was doing was really happening. He thought [that he] was seeing a vision.
Ekkor kiment, és követte őt, de nem tudta, hogy valóság-e az, ami történik az angyallal, hanem azt hitte, hogy látomása van.
10 Peter and the angel walked by the soldiers who were guarding the two doors, [but the soldiers did not see them. Then] they came to the iron gate that [led] out into the city. The gate opened by itself, and Peter and the angel walked out [of the prison]. After they had walked [a ways] along one street, the angel suddenly disappeared.
Amikor pedig átmentek az első őrsön és a másodikon, a vaskapuhoz jutottak, amely a városba visz, az magától megnyílt előttük. Kimentek rajta, és egy utcán előrementek, és az angyal hirtelen eltávozott tőle.
11 Then Peter [finally] realized that [what had happened to him was not a vision, but] it had really happened. So he said [to himself], “Now I really know that the Lord [God] sent an angel [to help me]. He rescued me from what Herod planned to do [MTY] [to me], and [also] from all the things that the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] expected [that Herod would do to me].”
Péter pedig magához térve ezt mondta: „Most tudom igazán, hogy az Úr elküldte az ő angyalát, és megszabadított engem Heródes kezéből, és attól, amit az egész zsidó népnek várt.“
12 When Peter realized [that God had rescued him], he went to Mary’s house. She was the mother of John whose other name was Mark. Many [believers] had assembled there, and they were praying [that God would help Peter somehow].
Miután ezt megértette, elment Máriának, János, más néven Márk anyjának házához, ahol sokan voltak összegyűlve, és imádkoztak.
13 When Peter knocked at the outer entrance, a servant girl named Rhoda came to find out [who was outside the door].
Mikor Péter zörgetett a tornác ajtaján, egy Rodé nevű szolgálóleány ment oda, hogy hallgatózzék.
14 [When Peter answered her], she recognized his voice, but she was so happy [and excited] that she did not open the door! Instead, she ran back [into the house]. She [excitedly] announced [to the other believers] that Peter was standing outside the door.
Megismerte Péter hangját, és örömében nem nyitotta ki a kaput, hanem befutott, és hírül adta, hogy Péter áll a kapu előtt.
15 But [one of] them said to her, “You [(sg)] are crazy!” But she continued saying that it was [really true. Then] they repeatedly said, “[No], [it cannot be Peter]. It is [probably] the angel [who was guarding] him [who has come] (OR, It is the angel [who has guarded/protected] him, [and he has come to tell us that] Peter [has died].)”
Azok pedig azt mondták neki: „Elment az eszed.“Ő azonban erősítgette, hogy úgy van. Azok pedig azt mondták: „Az ő angyala az.“
16 But Peter continued knocking [on the door. So when someone finally] opened the door, they saw that it was Peter, and they were completely amazed!
Péter pedig szüntelen zörgetett. Amikor aztán kinyitották, meglátták őt, és elálmélkodtak.
17 Peter motioned with his hand for them to be quiet. Then he told them exactly how the Lord [God] had led him out of the prison. He [also] said, “Tell James, the [leader] of our [congregation], and our [other] fellow believers what has happened.” Then [Peter left and] went away to another town.
Miután pedig kezével intett nekik, hogy hallgassanak, elbeszélte nekik, hogyan hozta ki őt az Úr a tömlöcből. És ezt mondta: „Adjátok tudtára ezeket Jakabnak és az atyafiaknak.“És kiment, és elment egy más helyre.
18 The next morning the soldiers [who had been guarding] Peter became terribly distressed, [because they did not know] what had happened to him.
Amikor megvirradt, nem csekély háborúság támadt a vitézek között, hogy mi történt Péterrel.
19 Then Herod [heard about it]. So he [commanded soldiers] to search for Peter, but they did not find him. Then he questioned the soldiers [who had been guarding Peter], and asked them, “[How did Peter get away when you were there guarding him?]” [But they could not explain it. So] he commanded them to be led away [to be executed] {[other soldiers] to lead them away [to execute them]}. [Afterwards], Herod went from Judea [province] down to Caesarea, where he stayed [for some time].
Heródes pedig mikor előhívatta őt, és nem találta, kivallatta az őröket, és megparancsolta, hogy végezzék ki őket. Azután lement Júdeából Cézáreába, és ott időzött.
20 King Herod had been furiously angry with the people [who lived] in Tyre and Sidon [cities. Then] one day some men [who represented them] came unitedly [to Caesarea in order to meet with] Herod. They persuaded Blastus, who was one of Herod’s important officials, to tell [Herod] that the people [in their cities] wanted to make peace [with him. They wanted to be able to trade with the people that Herod ruled], because they needed to buy food from those regions. [Herod had commanded the people in the areas he ruled to stop selling food to the people in those cities].
Heródes pedig ellenséges indulattal volt a tírusziak és szidóniak iránt. De azok egy akarattal eljöttek hozzá, és Blásztuszt, a király kamarását megnyerték, és békességet kértek, mivel az ő tartományukat a királyéból élelmezték.
21 On the day that Herod had planned to [meet with them], he put on (very expensive clothes that showed that he was king/his royal robes). Then he sat on his (throne/chair from which he ruled [people]), and [formally] addressed [all] the people [who had gathered there].
Egy kitűzött napon pedig Heródes királyi ruhájába felöltözött, és székében ülve nyilvánosan szólt hozzájuk.
22 Those who [were listening to him] shouted repeatedly, “[This man who] is speaking is a god, not a man!”
A nép pedig felkiáltott: „Isten szava ez és nem emberé.“
23 So, because Herod [let the people praise him] instead of praising God, immediately an angel [from] the Lord [God] caused Herod to become seriously ill. [Many] worms ate his intestines, and [soon] he died [very painfully].
És azonnal megverte őt az Úrnak angyala, azért, hogy nem az Istennek adta a dicsőséget. Férgek emésztették meg, és meghalt.
24 [The believers] continued telling God’s message to people in many places, and ([the number of people who believed in Jesus] was continually increasing/there were continually more and more people who were believing in Jesus).
Az Istennek igéje pedig növekedett és terjedt.
25 When Barnabas and Saul finished [delivering the money to help the Jewish believers in Judea], they left Jerusalem and returned [to Antioch, in Syria province]. They took John, whose other name was Mark, with them.
Barnabás és Saul pedig betöltve szolgálatukat visszatértek Jeruzsálemből, maguk mellé vették Jánost is, akinek másik neve Márk volt.
