| [1]AND the apostles and the brethren who were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God. |
[1]Ἤκουσαν δὲ οἱ ἀπόστολοι καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ οἱ ὄντες κατὰ τὴν ᾿Ιουδαίαν ὅτι καὶ τὰ ἔθνη ἐδέξαντο τὸν λόγον τοῦ Θεοῦ. |
| [2]And when Simon Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who upheld the circumcision contended with him, |
[2]καὶ ὅτε ἀνέβη Πέτρος εἰς ῾Ιεροσόλυμα, διεκρίνοντο πρὸς αὐτὸν οἱ ἐκ περιτομῆς |
| [3]Saying he had entered into the houses of uncircumcised men and had eaten with them. |
[3]λέγοντες ὅτι πρὸς ἄνδρας ἀκροβυστίαν ἔχοντας εἰσῆλθες καὶ συνέφαγες αὐτοῖς. |
| [4]Then Simon began to recite the facts one after another, saying, |
[4]ἀρξάμενος δὲ ὁ Πέτρος ἐξετίθετο αὐτοῖς καθεξῆς λέγων· |
| [5]As I was praying in Joppa, I saw in a vision something like a linen cloth descending from the sky, and it was tied at its four corners; and it came even to me. |
[5]ἐγὼ ἤμην ἐν πόλει ᾿Ιόππῃ προσευχόμενος, καὶ εἶδον ἐν ἐκστάσει ὅραμα, καταβαῖνον σκεῦός τι ὡς ὀθόνην μεγάλην τέσσαρσιν ἀρχαῖς καθιεμένην ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἦλθεν ἄχρις ἐμοῦ· |
| [6]And as I looked at it, I saw that there were in it fourfooted beasts, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of the air. |
[6]εἰς ἣν ἀτενίσας κατενόουν, καὶ εἶδον τὰ τετράποδα τῆς γῆς καὶ τὰ θηρία καὶ τὰ ἑρπετὰ καὶ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ. |
| [7]Then I heard a voice saying to me, Simon, arise, kill and eat. |
[7]ἤκουσα δὲ φωνῆς λεγούσης μοι· ἀναστάς, Πέτρε, θῦσον καὶ φάγε. |
| [8]And I said, Far be it, my Lord: for never has anything defiled and unclean entered my mouth. |
[8]εἶπον δέ· μηδαμῶς, Κύριε· ὅτι πᾶν κοινὸν ἢ ἀκάθαρτον οὐδέποτε εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸ στόμα μου. |
| [9]But again the voice from heaven said to me, What God has cleansed, do not call unclean. |
[9]ἀπεκρίθη δέ μοι φωνὴ ἐκ δευτέρου ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ· ἃ ὁ Θεὸς ἐκαθάρισε σὺ μὴ κοίνου. |
| [10]This happened three times: then everything was lifted up into heaven. |
[10]τοῦτο δὲ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ τρίς, καὶ πάλιν ἀνεσπάσθη ἅπαντα εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν. |
| [11]And in that very hour, three men who were sent to me by Cornelius from Caes-are'a came and stood at the gate of the courtyard where I was staying. |
[11]καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐξαυτῆς τρεῖς ἄνδρες ἐπέστησαν ἐπὶ τὴν οἰκίαν ἐν ᾗ ἤμην, ἀπεσταλμένοι ἀπὸ Καισαρείας πρός με. |
| [12]And the spirit said to me, Go with them, doubting nothing. And these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered the man's house. |
[12]εἶπε δέ μοι τὸ Πνεῦμα συνελθεῖν αὐτοῖς μηδὲν διακρινόμενον. ἦλθον δὲ σὺν ἐμοὶ καὶ οἱ ἓξ ἀδελφοὶ οὗτοι, καὶ εἰσήλθομεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ ἀνδρός. |
| [13]And he related to us how he had seen an angel in his house, who stood and said to him, Send to the city of Joppa, and bring Simon who is called Peter; |
[13]ἀπήγγειλέ τε ἡμῖν πῶς εἶδε τὸν ἄγγελον ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ σταθέντα καὶ εἰπόντα αὐτῷ· ἀπόστειλον εἰς ᾿Ιόππην ἄνδρας καὶ μετάπεμψαι Σίμωνα τὸν ἐπικαλούμενον Πέτρον, |
| [14]And he shall speak to you words by which you and all of your household shall be saved. |
[14]ὃς λαλήσει ῥήματα πρός σε, ἐν οἷς σωθήσῃ σὺ καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἷκός σου. |
| [15]And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them, as on us at the beginning. |
[15]ἐν δὲ τῷ ἄρξασθαί με λαλεῖν ἐπέπεσε τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ ῞Αγιον ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς ὥσπερ καὶ ἐφ᾿ ἡμᾶς ἐν ἀρχῇ. |
| [16]Then I remembered that word of our LORD, when he said, John indeed baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit. |
[16]ἐμνήσθην δὲ τοῦ ῥήματος Κυρίου ὡς ἔλεγεν· ᾿Ιωάννης μὲν ἐβάπτισεν ὕδατι, ὑμεῖς δὲ βαπτισθήσεσθε ἐν Πνεύματι ῾Αγίῳ. |
| [17]Now, therefore, if God has equally given the gifts to the Gentiles who believe in our LORD Jesus Christ, just as he gave to us, who am I that I should dispute God? |
[17]εἰ οὖν τὴν ἴσην δωρεὰν ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Θεὸς ὡς καὶ ἡμῖν πιστεύσασιν ἐπὶ τὸν Κύριον ᾿Ιησοῦν Χριστόν, ἐγὼ δὲ τίς ἤμην δυνατὸς κωλῦσαι τὸν Θεόν; |
| [18]When they heard these words, they held their peace and glorified God, saying, Perhaps God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance unto life. |
[18]ἀκούσαντες δὲ ταῦτα ἡσύχασαν καὶ ἐδόξαζον τὸν Θεὸν λέγοντες· ἄρα γε καὶ τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ὁ Θεὸς τὴν μετάνοιαν ἔδωκεν εἰς ζωήν. |
| [19]Now those who had been dispersed by the persecution which occurred on account of Stephen, traveled as far as Phoe-ni'ci-a and even to the land of Cyprus, and to An'tioch, preaching the word to none but to the Jews only. |
[19]Οἱ μὲν οὖν διασπαρέντες ἀπὸ τῆς θλίψεως τῆς γενομένης ἐπὶ Στεφάνῳ διῆλθον ἕως Φοινίκης καὶ Κύπρου καὶ ᾿Αντιοχείας, μηδενὶ λαλοῦντες τὸν λόγον εἰ μὴ μόνον ᾿Ιουδαίοις. |
| [20]But there were some men among them from Cyprus and from Cyrene; these men entered into An'ti-och and spoke to the Greeks and preached concerning our LORD Jesus. |
[20]῏Ησαν δέ τινες ἐξ αὐτῶν ἄνδρες Κύπριοι καὶ Κυρηναῖοι, οἵτινες εἰσελθόντες εἰς ᾿Αντιόχειαν ἐλάλουν πρὸς τοὺς ῾Ελληνιστάς, εὐαγγελιζόμενοι τὸν Κύριον ᾿Ιησοῦν. |
| [21]And the hand of the LORD was with them: and a great number believed, and turned to the LORD. |
[21]καὶ ἦν χεὶρ Κυρίου μετ᾿ αὐτῶν, πολύς τε ἀριθμὸς πιστεύσας ἐπέστρεψεν ἐπὶ τὸν Κύριον. |
| [22]Then tidings of these things came to the attention of the members of the congregation at Jerusalem: and they sent Bar'nabas to An'ti-och. |
[22]᾿Ηκούσθη δὲ ὁ λόγος εἰς τὰ ὦτα τῆς ἐκκλησίας τῆς ἐν ῾Ιεροσολύμοις περὶ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐξαπέστειλαν Βαρνάβαν διελθεῖν ἕως ᾿Αντιοχείας· |
| [23]When he came there and saw the grace of God, he was glad, and he pleaded with them that they should follow our LORD with all their hearts. |
[23]ὃς παραγενόμενος καὶ ἰδὼν τὴν χάριν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐχάρη, καὶ παρεκάλει πάντας τῇ προθέσει τῆς καρδίας προσμένειν τῷ Κυρίῳ, |
| [24]For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith: and many people were added to our LORD. |
[24]ὅτι ἦν ἀνὴρ ἀγαθὸς καὶ πλήρης Πνεύματος ῾Αγίου καὶ πίστεως· καὶ προσετέθη ὄχλος ἱκανὸς τῷ Κυρίῳ. |
| [25]Then Bar'na-bas departed to Tar'sus, to seek for Saul. |
[25]ἐξῆλθε δὲ εἰς Ταρσὸν ὁ Βαρνάβας ἀναζητῆσαι Σαῦλον, καὶ εὑρὼν αὐτὸν ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν εἰς ᾿Αντιόχειαν. |
| [26]And when he had found him, he brought him to An'ti-och. And for the whole year they assembled together in the church, and taught a great many people. The disciples were called Christians first at An'ti-och and from that time on. |
[26]ἐγένετο δὲ αὐτοὺς ἐνιαυτὸν ὅλον συναχθῆναι ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ καὶ διδάξαι ὄχλον ἱκανόν, χρηματίσαι τε πρῶτον ἐν ᾿Αντιοχείᾳ τοὺς μαθητὰς Χριστιανούς. |
| [27]And in those days came prophets from Jerusalem to An'ti-och. |
[27]᾿Εν ταύταις δὲ ταῖς ἡμέραις κατῆλθον ἀπὸ ῾Ιεροσολύμων προφῆται εἰς ᾿Αντιόχειαν· |
| [28]And one of them, named Ag'a-bus, stood up and foretold by the spirit, that a great famine was to come throughout the land: the famine which occurred in the days of Clau'di-us Cae'sar. |
[28]ἀναστὰς δὲ εἷς ἐξ αὐτῶν ὀνόματι ῎Αγαβος ἐσήμανε διὰ τοῦ Πνεύματος λιμὸν μέγαν μέλλειν ἔσεσθαι ἐφ᾿ ὅλην τὴν οἰκουμένην· ὅστις καὶ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ Κλαυδίου Καίσαρος. |
| [29]Then the disciples, each one according to his ability, determined to set aside for relief to the brethren who dwelt in Ju-dae'a. |
[29]τῶν δὲ μαθητῶν καθὼς ηὐπορεῖτό τις, ὥρισαν ἕκαστος αὐτῶν εἰς διακονίαν πέμψαι τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν ἐν τῇ ᾿Ιουδαίᾳ ἀδελφοῖς· |
| [30]This they did, and sent it there to the elders by the hands of Bar'na-bas and Saul. |
[30]ὃ καὶ ἐποίησαν ἀποστείλαντες πρὸς τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους διὰ χειρὸς Βαρνάβα καὶ Σαύλου. |
