Acts 16
1 Paul [and Silas] to Derbe [city and visited the believers there]. Next [they went to] Lystra [city]. A believer whose name was Timothy lived there. His mother was a Jewish believer, but his father was a Greek.
Eljutott Derbébe és Lisztrába is. És íme volt ott egy Timóteus nevű tanítvány, egy hívő zsidó asszonynak, de görög atyának fia,
2 The believers in Lystra and Iconium said good things about Timothy,
akiről jó bizonyságot tettek a Lisztrában és Ikóniumban élő atyafiak.
3 and Paul wanted to take Timothy with him [when he went] to other places, so he circumcised Timothy. [He did that so that] the Jews who lived in those places [would accept Timothy], because they knew that his non-Jewish father [had not allowed him to be circumcised] {[anyone to circumcise his son]}.
Őt Pál magával akarta vinni, és körülmetélte őt a zsidókra való tekintettel, akik azokon a helyeken voltak: mert mindnyájan ismerték atyját, hogy görög volt.
4 [So Timothy went with Paul and Silas] and they traveled to many other towns. [In each town] they told [the] believers the rules that had been decided by the apostles and elders in Jerusalem {that the apostles and elders in Jerusalem had decided} that [non-Jewish] believers should obey.
Amint átmentek a városokon, meghagyták nekik, hogy tartsák meg azokat a rendeleteket, amelyeket a Jeruzsálemben levő apostolok és vének hoztak.
5 [God was helping] the believers in those towns to trust more strongly [in the Lord Jesus], and every day more people became believers.
A gyülekezetek pedig erősödtek a hitben, és számuk naponként gyarapodott.
6 Paul and his companions wanted/planned to enter Asia [province] preach the message [about Jesus] there, but they were prevented by the Holy Spirit {the Holy Spirit prevented them} [from going there. So] they traveled through Phrygia and Galatia [provinces].
Mivel a Szentlélek megtiltotta, hogy az igét Ázsiában hirdessék, körbejárták Frígiát és Galácia tartományát.
7 They arrived at the border of Mysia [province] and they wanted to go [north] Bithynia [province]. But [again] the Spirit of Jesus showed them that they should not [go there].
Mízia felé mentek, és igyekeztek Bitíniába jutni, de nem eresztette őket a Lélek.
8 So they went through Mysia [province] and arrived at Troas, a [port city. I, Luke, joined them there].
Áthaladtak azért Mízián, lementek Tróászba.
9 That night [God gave] Paul a vision in which he saw a man [who was a native] of Macedonia [province]. He was standing [some distance away], and he was earnestly calling to Paul, “[Please] come over [here] to Macedonia and help us!”
Azon az éjszakán látomás jelent meg Pálnak: egy macedón férfiú állt előtte, kérve őt: „Gyere át Macedóniába, és légy segítségül nekünk!“
10 [The next morning] we [(exc)] immediately got ready to go to Macedonia, because we believed that God had called us to [go and] preach the good message to the people there.
Mihelyt pedig a látomást látta, azonnal igyekezett elmenni Macedóniába, megértve, hogy oda hívott minket az Úr, hogy azoknak prédikáljuk az evangéliumot.
11 So we [(exc)] got on a ship in Troas and sailed across [the sea] Samothrace [Island. We spent the night there], and the next day [we sailed again across the sea and arrived] at Neapolis [port/town].
Elhajózva Tróászból, egyenesen Szamothrákéba mentünk, másnap meg Neápoliszba.
12 Then we [left Neapolis and] went [by land] to Philippi. It was a very important city in Macedonia [province, where many] Roman citizens lived. We stayed in Philippi several days.
Onnét pedig Filippibe, amely Macedónia azon részének első gyarmatvárosa. Ebben a városban töltöttünk néhány napot.
13 On the first (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) [after we(exc) arrived], we went outside the city gate [down] to the river. We had heard [someone say] that [Jewish] people gathered to pray there. [When we arrived there, we saw] some women who had gathered [to pray]. So we sat down and began to tell them [the message about Jesus].
Szombatnapon kimentünk a városon kívül egy folyóvíz mellé, ahol az imádkozás szokott lenni, és leülve beszélgettünk az egybegyűlt asszonyokkal.
14 A woman whose name was Lydia was one of those who were listening [to Paul. She was a non-Jewish woman], from Thyatira [city, who bought and] sold [expensive] purple cloth. She had accepted what the Jews believe about God. The Lord [God] caused her to pay attention to the message that Paul preached, and she believed it. [The members of her household also heard the good message and believed in Jesus] [MTY].
Egy Lídia nevű, Thiatíra városbeli bíborárus asszony, aki félte az Istent, hallgatott ránk. Az Úr megnyitotta szívét, hogy figyeljenek azokra, amiket Pál mondott.
15 After [Paul and Silas] baptized Lydia and the others who lived in her house [MTY] {After Lydia and the others who lived in her house were baptized}, she invited us to [go and stay in] her home. She said, “You [(pl)] know that I [now] believe in the Lord [Jesus], so [please] come and stay in my house.” She persuaded us [to do that, so we(exc) stayed there].
Amikor pedig megkeresztelkedett egész házanépével együtt, kért minket: „Ha az Úr hívének ítéltetek engem, gyertek az én házamhoz, és maradjatok ott. És unszolt minket.“
16 Another day, while we [(exc)] were going to the place where people regularly gathered to pray, we met a young woman who was a slave. An evil spirit was enabling her to be a ventriloquist and to tell people what would happen [to them]. People paid a lot of money to [the men who were] her owners, in return for her telling them things that [she said] would happen [to them].
Történt pedig, hogy amikor a könyörgésre mentünk, egy szolgálóleányka jött elénk, akiben jövendőmondásnak lelke volt, és az ő urainak nagy hasznot hajtott jövendőmondásával.
17 This young woman followed Paul and the rest of us. She continually shouted, “These men serve the God who is the greatest [of all gods]! They are telling you how ([God] can save you [so that he will not punish you/to be] saved)”
Követte Pált és minket, és így kiáltott: „Ezek az emberek a magasságos Istennek szolgái, akik nektek az üdvösségnek útját hirdetik.“
18 She continued to do that for many days. Finally Paul became irritated. So he turned [toward the young woman] and rebuked the evil spirit [that was in her. He said], “By the authority [MTY] of Jesus Christ, I command you [(sg)] to come out of this young woman!” Right away the evil spirit left her.
És ezt több napon át művelte. Pál azonban megharagudott és hátrafordulva, ezt mondta a léleknek: „Parancsolom neked a Jézus Krisztus nevében, hogy menj ki belőle.“És kiment abban az órában.
19 And then her owners realized that she could no longer earn money for them [because she could no longer predict what would happen to people, so they were angry]. They grabbed Paul and Silas and forcefully took them to the public square, to [the place where] the government authorities and [a lot of other people were gathered].
Amikor látták urai, hogy keresetüknek a reménysége elveszett, megfogták Pált és Szilászt, a piacra vonszolták őket a hatóságok elé.
20 The owners [of the young woman] brought Paul and Silas to the city officials and told them, “These men are Jews, and they are greatly troubling [the people in] [MTY] our city.
Odavezették őket a bírákhoz és ezt mondták: „Ezek az emberek zsidó létükre megháborítják a mi városunkat.
21 They are teaching that we [(inc)] should follow customs that our laws do not allow us Romans to consider [to be correct] or to obey!”
Olyan szertartásokat hirdetnek, amelyeket nem szabad elfogadnunk, sem cselekednünk, mivel rómaiak vagyunk.“
22 Many of the crowd joined [those who were accusing] Paul and Silas, and started beating them. Then the [Roman] authorities commanded [soldiers] to tear the shirts off Paul and Silas and to beat them [with rods/sticks].
És velük együtt támadt a sokaság ellenük. A bírák pedig letépették ruháikat, megvesszőztették őket.
23 [So the soldiers] beat Paul and Silas vigorously [with rods]. After that, they [took them and] shoved them into the prison. They told the jailer that he should lock them up securely.
Miután sok ütést mértek rájuk, börtönbe vetették őket, megparancsolva a börtönőrnek, hogy gondosan őrizze őket.
24 [Because the officials] had [commanded] him [to do that], the jailer shoved Paul and Silas into the cell that was farthest inside. [There, he made them sit down on the floor/ground and stretch out their legs]. Then he fastened their ankles in [grooves] between two large wooden beams, [so that Paul and Silas could not move their legs].
Ezt a parancsot megfogadva, a belső tömlöcbe vetette őket, és lábaikat kalodába szorította.
25 About midnight, Paul and Silas were praying [aloud] and praising God by singing hymns. The [other] prisoners were listening attentively to them.
Éjféltájban pedig Pál és Szilász imádkozott, és énekkel dicsőítették az Istent. A foglyok pedig hallgatták őket.
26 Suddenly there was a very strong earthquake. It shook the entire jail [SYN] and its foundation [SYN]. [The earthquake caused] all the doors [of the jail] to open suddenly, and [caused] all the chains that fastened the prisoners to fall off.
Hirtelen nagy földindulás lett, annyira, hogy megrendültek a börtön alapjai, és azonnal megnyílt az összes ajtó, és mindnyájuknak lehulltak bilincsei.
27 The jailer woke up and saw that the doors of the jail were open. He thought that the prisoners had escaped. So he pulled out his sword in order to kill himself, [because he knew that the officials would kill him if the prisoners escaped].
A börtönőr pedig fölserkent, és látta, hogy nyitva vannak a börtönajtók, kivonta kardját, és meg akarta magát ölni, mert azt gondolta, hogy elszöktek a foglyok.
28 Paul [saw the jailer and] shouted to him, “Do not harm yourself! We [(exc) prisoners] are all here!”
Pál azonban hangosan kiáltott: „Semmi kárt ne tégy magadban, mert mindnyájan itt vagyunk!“
29 The jailer shouted [to someone] to bring torches/lanterns, [and after they brought them], he rushed into the jail and knelt down in front of Paul and Silas. [He was very afraid, so] much so that he was trembling/shaking.
Ő pedig világosságot kérve beugrott, és remegve borult Pál és Szilász elé;
30 Then he brought Paul and Silas out [of the jail] and asked: “Sirs, what do I need to do to be saved [from being punished for my sins]?”
majd kihozta őket, ezt és mondta: „Uraim, mit kell cselekednem, hogy üdvözüljek?“
31 [They answered], “Trust in [what] the Lord Jesus [has done for you], and you will be saved {[God] will save you}, and the others who live in [MTY] your house will [also] be saved [if they believe in Jesus].”
Azok pedig ezt mondták: „Higgy az Úr Jézus Krisztusban, és üdvözülsz mind te, mind a te házad népe!“
32 Then the jailer took Paul and Silas into his house, washed their wounds, and gave them a meal. [He woke up all the people in his house, and] Paul and Silas told all of them the message about the Lord [Jesus. They all believed in him]. Immediately [after that, the jailer and all his family were baptized] {[Paul and Silas] baptized the jailer and all his family}. They were very happy, because now they all believed in God.
És hirdették az Úr igéjét neki és mindazoknak, akik a házánál voltak.
Ekkor magához vette őket az éjszakának abban az órájában, megmosta sebeiket, és azonnal megkeresztelkedett egész háza népével együtt.
Azután bevitte őket házába, asztalt terített nekik, és egész háznépével együtt örvendezett, hogy hitt az Istennek.
35 The next morning, the [Roman] officials commanded [some] police officers [to go to the jail to say to the jailer], “[Our bosses] say, ‘Let those [two] prisoners go [now]!’”
Amikor pedig megvirradt, a bírák elküldték a szolgákat ezt üzenve: „Bocsásd el azokat az embereket.“
36 [After the officers went and told that to] the jailer, he [went and] told Paul, “The [Roman] authorities have sent a message [(sg)] saying that I should release you [(sg)] and Silas [from prison]. So you [two] can leave [the jail] now. Now you can go peacefully!”
A börtönőr pedig tudtatta ezeket Pállal: „A bírák ide küldtek, hogy bocsássalak el titeket: most azért távozzatok, menjetek el békességgel!“
37 But Paul said to the police officers, “The authorities [commanded men to] beat us in front of a crowd before [those authorities] had learned if we [(exc)] had done anything wrong! Then they [ordered men to] shove us into jail! [But that was not legal, because] we [(exc)] are Roman citizens! And now they want [RHQ] to send us away secretly! We will not accept that! Those [Roman] officials must come themselves and [tell us that they are sorry], and take us out [of jail].”
Pál pedig ezt mondta nekik: „Megvesszőztek minket nyilvánosan, ítélet nélkül, holott római emberek vagyunk, és börtönbe vetettek: és most alattomban akarnak bennünket elküldeni? Nem úgy, hanem jöjjenek ők maguk, és vezessenek ki minket.“
38 So the police officers [went and] told the city authorities [what Paul had said]. When those authorities heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens, they were afraid [that someone would report to more important officials what they had done, and as a result they would be punished] {[those officials would punish them]}.
A szolgák pedig megmondták a bíráknak ezeket a beszédeket. Azok pedig megijedtek, amikor meghallották, hogy rómaiak,
39 So the city authorities came to Paul and Silas and told them that they were sorry for what they had done to them. The authorities brought them out of the jail, and repeatedly asked them to leave the city [soon].
odamentek, megkövették és kivezették őket, kérték, hogy menjenek el a városból.
40 After Paul and Silas left the jail, they went to Lydia’s house. There they met with her and the [other] believers. They encouraged the believers [to continue trusting in the Lord Jesus], and then the two apostles left [Philippi].
Amint kijöttek a börtönből, bementek Lídiához. Amikor meglátták az atyafiakat, vigasztalták őket, és eltávoztak.
