Acts 3
1 [One day] Peter and John were going to the Temple [courtyard]. It was three o’clock in the afternoon, which was the time when people prayed [there publicly].
Piotr i Jan weszli razem do świątyni w godzinie modlitwy, o dziewiątej.
2 There was a man there who had been lame from the time he was born. He [was sitting by] the gate called Beautiful [Gate], at the entrance to the Temple [area]. People put him there every day, so that he could ask those who were entering [or leaving] the temple courtyard to give him some money.
A wnoszono [właśnie] pewnego mężczyznę, chromego od urodzenia, którego każdego dnia sadzano u bramy świątyni, zwanej Piękną, żeby wchodzących do świątyni prosił o jałmużnę.
3 As Peter and John were about to enter [the Temple courtyard], the lame man saw them and asked them several times to give him some money. (OR, The lame man said to them several times, “Please give me some money!”)
Gdy zobaczył Piotra i Jana, jak mieli wejść do świątyni, prosił ich o jałmużnę.
4 As Peter and John looked directly at him, Peter said to him, “Look at us!”
A Piotr, przypatrując mu się wraz z Janem, powiedział: Spójrz na nas.
5 So he looked directly at them, expecting to get some [money] from them.
On więc spojrzał na nich uważnie, spodziewając się, że coś od nich otrzyma.
6 Then Peter said to him, “I do not have any money [MTY], but what I [can do], I will [do] for you. Jesus Christ, [who was] from Nazareth [town], has authorized [MTY] me [to heal you! So get up and] walk!”
Wtedy Piotr powiedział: Nie mam srebra ani złota, lecz co mam, to ci daję: W imieniu Jezusa Chrystusa z Nazaretu, wstań i chodź!
7 Then Peter grasped the man’s right hand and helped him to stand up. Immediately the man’s feet and ankles became strong.
A ująwszy go za prawą rękę, podniósł go. I natychmiast wzmocniły się jego nogi i kostki.
8 He jumped up and began to walk! Then he entered the Temple [area] with them, walking and leaping and praising God!
A on zerwał się, wstał i chodził. Wszedł z nimi do świątyni, chodząc, skacząc i chwaląc Boga.
9 All the people [there] saw that man walking and praising God.
A wszyscy ludzie widzieli go chodzącego i chwalącego Boga.
10 They recognized that he was the man who used to sit at the Beautiful Gate in the Temple [courtyard] and ask [people] for money! So all the people there were greatly amazed at what had happened to him.
I rozpoznali w nim tego [człowieka], który dla jałmużny siadał przy Pięknej Bramie świątyni, i ogarnęło ich zdumienie i zachwyt nad tym, co mu się przydarzyło.
11 As the man clung to Peter and John, all the people were so surprised [that they did not know what to think] So they ran to the two apostles at the place [in the Temple courtyard] that is called {that [people] call} Solomon’s Porch.
A gdy ten chromy, [który został] uzdrowiony, trzymał się Piotra i Jana, wszyscy ludzie zdumieni zbiegli się do nich w przedsionku, który zwano Salomonowym.
12 When Peter saw that, he said to the crowd, “Fellow Israelites, (you should not be surprised about what has happened to this man!/why are you so surprised about what has happened to this man?) [RHQ] And you should not stare at us, either! You seem to [RHQ] think that the two of us enabled this man to walk because we [(exc)] ourselves are powerful or because we please God very much!
Kiedy Piotr to zobaczył, przemówił do ludzi: Mężowie izraelscy, dlaczego się temu dziwicie i dlaczego się nam tak uważnie przypatrujecie, jakbyśmy własną mocą albo pobożnością sprawili, że on chodzi?
13 [So I will tell you what is really happening]. Our ancestors, including Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, worshipped God. And now he has greatly honored Jesus, who always served him. Your [leaders] brought Jesus [to the governor, Pilate], so that [his soldiers would kill him]. And [God considers that] in front of Pilate you [were the ones who rejected] Jesus [as your king], after Pilate had decided that he should release Jesus.
Bóg Abrahama, Izaaka i Jakuba, Bóg naszych ojców, uwielbił Jezusa, swego Syna, którego wy wydaliście i wyparliście się przed Piłatem, gdy postanowił go uwolnić.
14 [Although Jesus] always did what was right/just and good, you rejected him. [Pilate wanted to release him, but] you urgently asked Pilate to release (a murderer/someone who had killed people)!
A wy wyparliście się Świętego i Sprawiedliwego i prosiliście o uwolnienie wam mordercy.
15 [God considers that] you killed [Jesus], the one who gives people [eternal] life. But God has greatly honored him (by causing him to become alive again after he died/by raising him from the dead). Many of us saw [him after that, and now] we [(exc)] are telling [you] about it.
I zabiliście Dawcę życia, którego Bóg wskrzesił z martwych, czego my jesteśmy świadkami.
16 It is because [we two] trusted in what Jesus [MTY, PRS] [could do, that he] made this man, whom you see and know, strong again. Yes, it is because we [(exc)] trusted in Jesus that he has completely healed this man for all of you to see.”
A przez wiarę w jego imię, temu, którego widzicie i znacie, imię to przywróciło siły. To wiara, która jest przez niego, dała mu pełne zdrowie na oczach was wszystkich.
17 “Now, my fellow-countrymen, I know that you and your leaders did that [to Jesus] because you [and they] did not know [that he was the Messiah].
Ale teraz, bracia, wiem, że uczyniliście to z nieświadomości, tak jak wasi przełożeni.
18 However, [your putting him to death] was what God had predicted that people would do. [Long ago] he told all the prophets [MTY] to write [what people would do to the Messiah. They wrote] that the Messiah, whom God [would send], would suffer [and die].
Lecz Bóg w ten sposób wypełnił to, co przepowiedział przez usta wszystkich swoich proroków, że jego Chrystus będzie cierpiał.
19 So, turn away from your sinful behavior and ask God [to help you] do what pleases [him], in order that he may completely forgive you for your sins.
Dlatego pokutujcie i nawróćcie się, aby wasze grzechy były zgładzone, gdy nadejdą sprzed oblicza Pana czasy ochłody;
20 [If you do that], there will be times [when you will know that] the Lord [God is] helping [you]. And some day he will [again] send back [to earth] the Messiah, whom he appointed for you. That person is Jesus.
I pośle tego, który był wam głoszony, Jezusa Chrystusa;
21 Jesus must stay in heaven until the time when God will cause all that he has created to become new. Long ago God promised [to do that, and] he chose holy prophets to tell [that to people]. (aiōn g165)
Którego niebo musi przyjąć aż do czasu odnowienia wszystkich rzeczy, jak Bóg od wieków przepowiadał przez usta wszystkich swoich świętych proroków. (aiōn g165)
22 For [example, the prophet] Moses said [this about the Messiah]: ‘The Lord (your God/the God whom you [worship]) will cause someone to become a prophet to tell you [God’s message. God will send him] as [he sent] me, [and he will be] from among your own people. You must listen to everything that this prophet tells you [and obey him] [SYN].
Mojżesz bowiem powiedział do ojców: Proroka jak ja wzbudzi wam Pan, wasz Bóg, spośród waszych braci. Jego będziecie słuchać we wszystkim, co wam powie.
23 [Those who] do not listen to [that prophet and obey] him will no longer belong to God’s people, and [God] will get rid of them’.”
I stanie się, że każda dusza, która nie będzie słuchać tego proroka, będzie wytracona spośród ludu.
24 [Peter continued], “All the prophets have told [about what would happen during] the time [MTY] [in which we(inc) are living. Those prophets include] Samuel [and all the others who] later also spoke [about these events] before they happened.
Przepowiadali te dni także wszyscy prorocy, którzy przemawiali od [czasów] Samuela i inni po nim.
25 You [as well as we(exc)] are the people [to whom God sent the Messiah, as] the prophets said [MTY] [that he would]. And when God strongly promised [to bless] our ancestors, he also surely promised to bless you. He said to Abraham [concerning the Messiah], ‘[I] will bless all people on the earth as a result of [what] your descendant [will do].’”
Wy jesteście synami proroków i przymierza, które Bóg zawarł z naszymi ojcami, mówiąc do Abrahama: W twoim potomstwie będą błogosławione wszystkie narody ziemi.
26 [Peter concluded], “[So] when God sent [to the earth] (Jesus, the one who always obeys him/his servant Jesus), he sent him first to you [Israelites] to bless you. [God will] enable you to stop doing what is wicked [and to start doing what pleases him].”
Wzbudziwszy swego Syna, Jezusa, Bóg najpierw posłał go do was, aby wam błogosławił w odwracaniu się każdego z was od swoich nieprawości.
