Деяния святых апостолов 1
1 Первое убо слово сотворих о всех, о, Феофиле, яже начат Иисус творити же и учити
The former book I wrote, Theophilus, told all that Jesus began to do and to teach,
2 даже до дне, в оньже, заповедав Апостолом Духом Святым, ихже избра, вознесеся:
until the day that he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen.
3 пред нимиже и постави Себе жива по страдании Своем во мнозех истинных знамениих, деньми четыредесятьми являяся им и глаголя яже о Царствии Божии:
After his suffering, he presented himself alive to them with many convincing proofs. For forty days he appeared to them, and he spoke about the kingdom of God.
4 с нимиже и ядый повеле им от Иерусалима не отлучатися, но ждати обетования Отча, еже слышасте от Мене:
When he was meeting together with them, he commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, about which, he said, “You heard from me
5 яко Иоанн убо крестил есть водою, вы же имате креститися Духом Святым не по мнозех сих днех.
that John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized in the Holy Spirit in a few days.”
6 Они же убо сошедшеся вопрошаху Его, глаголюще: Господи, аще в лето сие устрояеши царствие Израилево?
When they were assembled together they asked him, “Lord, is this the time you will restore the kingdom to Israel?”
7 Рече же к ним: несть ваше разумети времена и лета, яже Отец положи во Своей власти:
He said to them, “It is not for you to know the times or the seasons which the Father has determined by his own authority.
8 но приимете силу, нашедшу Святому Духу на вы, и будете Ми свидетелие во Иерусалиме же и во всей Иудеи и Самарии и даже до последних земли.
But you will receive power, when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
9 И сия рек, зрящым им взятся, и облак подят Его от очию их.
When the Lord Jesus had said these things, as they were looking up, he was raised up, and a cloud hid him from their eyes.
10 И егда взирающе бяху на небо, идущу Ему, и се, мужа два стаста пред ними во одежди беле,
While they were looking intensely to heaven as he went, suddenly, two men stood by them in white clothing.
11 яже и рекоста: мужие Галилейстии, что стоите зряще на небо? Сей Иисус, вознесыйся от вас на небо, такожде приидет, имже образом видесте Его идуща на небо.
They said, “You men of Galilee, why do you stand here looking into heaven? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven, will return in the same manner as you saw him going into heaven.”
12 Тогда возвратишася во Иерусалим от горы нарицаемыя Елеон, яже есть близ Иерусалима, субботы имущия путь.
Then they returned to Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives, which is near to Jerusalem, a Sabbath day's journey.
13 И егда внидоша, взыдоша на горницу, идеже бяху пребывающе, Петр же и Иаков, и Иоанн и Андрей, Филипп и Фома, Варфоломей и Матфей, Иаков Алфеов и Симон Зилот и Иуда Иаковль:
When they arrived, they went up into the upper chamber, where they were staying. They were Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James.
14 сии вси бяху терпяще единодушно в молитве и молении, с женами и Мариею Материю Иисусовою и с братиею Его.
They were all united as one, as they diligently continued in prayer. Included were the women, Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
15 И во дни тыя востав Петр посреде ученик, рече,
In those days Peter stood up in the midst of the brothers, about 120 people, and said,
16 бе же имен народа вкупе яко сто и двадесять: мужие братие, подобаше скончатися Писанию сему, еже предрече Дух Святый усты Давидовыми о Иуде, бывшем вожди емшым Иисуса:
“Brothers, it was necessary that the scripture should be fulfilled, that the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who guided the ones who arrested Jesus.
17 яко причтен бе с нами и приял бяше жребий службы сея:
For he was one of us and received his share of the benefits of this ministry.”
18 сей убо стяжа село от мзды неправедныя, и ниц быв проседеся посреде, и излияся вся утроба его:
(Now this man bought a field with the earnings he received for his wickedness, and there he fell headfirst, and his body burst open, and all his intestines poured out.
19 и разумно бысть всем живущым во Иерусалиме, яко нарещися селу тому своим их языком Акелдама, еже есть село крове:
All those living in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language “Akeldama,” that is, “Field of Blood.”)
20 пишется бо в книзе Псаломстей: да будет двор его пуст, и да не будет живущаго в нем, и епископство его да приимет ин:
“For it is written in the Book of Psalms, 'Let his field be made desolate, and do not let even one person live there'; 'Let someone else take his position of leadership.'
21 подобает убо от сходившихся с нами мужей во всяко лето, в неже вниде и изыде в нас Господь Иисус,
It is necessary, therefore, that one of the men who accompanied us all the time the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
22 начен от крещения Иоаннова даже до дне, в оньже вознесеся (на небо) от нас, свидетелю воскресения Его быти с нами единому от сих.
beginning from the baptism of John to the day that he was taken up from us, must be a witness with us of his resurrection.”
23 И поставиша два, Иосифа нарицаемаго Варсаву, иже наречен бысть Иуст, и Матфиа,
They put forward two men, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also named Justus, and Matthias.
24 и помолившеся реша: Ты, Господи, Сердцеведче всех, покажи, егоже избрал еси от сею двою единаго,
They prayed and said, “You, Lord, know the hearts of all people, so reveal which of these two is the one whom you have chosen
25 прияти жребий служения сего и Апостолства, из негоже испаде Иуда, ити в место свое.
to take the place in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned away to go to his own place.”
26 И даша жребия има, и паде жребий на Матфиа, и причтен бысть ко единонадесяти Апостолом.
They cast lots for them, and the lot fell to Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
