Acts 1
1 The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
Hai Teofilus, dalam bukuku yang pertama aku menulis tentang segala sesuatu yang dikerjakan dan diajarkan Yesus,
2 until the day in which he was received up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.
sampai pada hari Ia terangkat. Sebelum itu Ia telah memberi perintah-Nya oleh Roh Kudus kepada rasul-rasul yang dipilih-Nya.
3 To these he also showed himself alive after he suffered, by many proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking about God’s Kingdom.
Kepada mereka Ia menunjukkan diri-Nya setelah penderitaan-Nya selesai, dan dengan banyak tanda Ia membuktikan, bahwa Ia hidup. Sebab selama empat puluh hari Ia berulang-ulang menampakkan diri dan berbicara kepada mereka tentang Kerajaan Allah.
4 Being assembled together with them, he commanded them, “Don’t depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.
Pada suatu hari ketika Ia makan bersama-sama dengan mereka, Ia melarang mereka meninggalkan Yerusalem, dan menyuruh mereka tinggal di situ menantikan janji Bapa, yang--demikian kata-Nya--"telah kamu dengar dari pada-Ku.
5 For John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
Sebab Yohanes membaptis dengan air, tetapi tidak lama lagi kamu akan dibaptis dengan Roh Kudus."
6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?”
Maka bertanyalah mereka yang berkumpul di situ: "Tuhan, maukah Engkau pada masa ini memulihkan kerajaan bagi Israel?"
7 He said to them, “It isn’t for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority.
Jawab-Nya: "Engkau tidak perlu mengetahui masa dan waktu, yang ditetapkan Bapa sendiri menurut kuasa-Nya.
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.”
Tetapi kamu akan menerima kuasa, kalau Roh Kudus turun ke atas kamu, dan kamu akan menjadi saksi-Ku di Yerusalem dan di seluruh Yudea dan Samaria dan sampai ke ujung bumi."
9 When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Sesudah Ia mengatakan demikian, terangkatlah Ia disaksikan oleh mereka, dan awan menutup-Nya dari pandangan mereka.
10 While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing,
Ketika mereka sedang menatap ke langit waktu Ia naik itu, tiba-tiba berdirilah dua orang yang berpakaian putih dekat mereka,
11 who also said, “You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who was received up from you into the sky, will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky.”
dan berkata kepada mereka: "Hai orang-orang Galilea, mengapakah kamu berdiri melihat ke langit? Yesus ini, yang terangkat ke sorga meninggalkan kamu, akan datang kembali dengan cara yang sama seperti kamu melihat Dia naik ke sorga."
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away.
Maka kembalilah rasul-rasul itu ke Yerusalem dari bukit yang disebut Bukit Zaitun, yang hanya seperjalanan Sabat jauhnya dari Yerusalem.
13 When they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were staying, that is Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.
Setelah mereka tiba di kota, naiklah mereka ke ruang atas, tempat mereka menumpang. Mereka itu ialah Petrus dan Yohanes, Yakobus dan Andreas, Filipus dan Tomas, Bartolomeus dan Matius, Yakobus bin Alfeus, dan Simon orang Zelot dan Yudas bin Yakobus.
14 All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer and supplication, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
Mereka semua bertekun dengan sehati dalam doa bersama-sama, dengan beberapa perempuan serta Maria, ibu Yesus, dan dengan saudara-saudara Yesus.
15 In these days, Peter stood up in the middle of the disciples (and the number of names was about one hundred twenty), and said,
Pada hari-hari itu berdirilah Petrus di tengah-tengah saudara-saudara yang sedang berkumpul itu, kira-kira seratus dua puluh orang banyaknya, lalu berkata:
16 “Brothers, it was necessary that this Scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus.
"Hai saudara-saudara, haruslah genap nas Kitab Suci, yang disampaikan Roh Kudus dengan perantaraan Daud tentang Yudas, pemimpin orang-orang yang menangkap Yesus itu.
17 For he was counted with us, and received his portion in this ministry.
Dahulu ia termasuk bilangan kami dan mengambil bagian di dalam pelayanan ini."
18 Now this man obtained a field with the reward for his wickedness; and falling headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines gushed out.
--Yudas ini telah membeli sebidang tanah dengan upah kejahatannya, lalu ia jatuh tertelungkup, dan perutnya terbelah sehingga semua isi perutnya tertumpah ke luar.
19 It became known to everyone who lived in Jerusalem that in their language that field was called ‘Akeldama,’ that is, ‘The field of blood.’
Hal itu diketahui oleh semua penduduk Yerusalem, sehingga tanah itu mereka sebut dalam bahasa mereka sendiri "Hakal-Dama", artinya Tanah Darah--.
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, ‘Let his habitation be made desolate. Let no one dwell in it;’ and, ‘Let another take his office.’
"Sebab ada tertulis dalam kitab Mazmur: Biarlah perkemahannya menjadi sunyi, dan biarlah tidak ada penghuni di dalamnya: dan: Biarlah jabatannya diambil orang lain.
21 “Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Jadi harus ditambahkan kepada kami seorang dari mereka yang senantiasa datang berkumpul dengan kami selama Tuhan Yesus bersama-sama dengan kami,
22 beginning from the baptism of John to the day that he was received up from us, of these one must become a witness with us of his resurrection.”
yaitu mulai dari baptisan Yohanes sampai hari Yesus terangkat ke sorga meninggalkan kami, untuk menjadi saksi dengan kami tentang kebangkitan-Nya."
23 They put forward two: Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also called Justus, and Matthias.
Lalu mereka mengusulkan dua orang: Yusuf yang disebut Barsabas dan yang juga bernama Yustus, dan Matias.
24 They prayed and said, “You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men, show which one of these two you have chosen
Mereka semua berdoa dan berkata: "Ya Tuhan, Engkaulah yang mengenal hati semua orang, tunjukkanlah kiranya siapa yang Engkau pilih dari kedua orang ini,
25 to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas fell away, that he might go to his own place.”
untuk menerima jabatan pelayanan, yaitu kerasulan yang ditinggalkan Yudas yang telah jatuh ke tempat yang wajar baginya."
26 They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was counted with the eleven apostles.
Lalu mereka membuang undi bagi kedua orang itu dan yang kena undi adalah Matias dan dengan demikian ia ditambahkan kepada bilangan kesebelas rasul itu.
