1And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.
1Bet tanī dienā notika liela Jeruzalemes baznīcas vajāšana; un visi, izņemot apustuļus, tika izklīdināti Jūdejas un Samarijas apvidos.
2And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.
2Tad dievbijīgie vīri apbedīja Stefanu un ļoti viņu apraudāja.
3As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.
3Bet Sauls postīja Baznīcu, iedams namos, tverot vīriešus un sievietes un nododot tos cietumā.
4Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.
4Bet izklīdinātie staigāja apkārt, sludinādami Dieva vārdu.
5Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.
5Tad Filips nogāja Samarijas pilsētā un sludināja tiem Kristu.
6And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.
6Bet ļaudis uzmanīgi un vienprātīgi klausījās, ko Filips runāja, un redzēja zīmes, ko viņš darīja.
7For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.
7Jo no daudziem, kas bija ļauno garu apsēsti, tie izgāja, stiprā balsī kliegdami; bet daudzi triekas skartie un tizlie tika izdziedināti.
8And there was great joy in that city.
8Un liels prieks bija tanī pilsētā.
9But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:
9Bet kāds vīrs, vārdā Sīmanis, kas agrāk pilsētā bija burvis, krāpa Samarijas ļaudis, sacīdams, ka viņš esot kas liels.
10To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.
10Viņu ievēroja visi: no maza līdz lielam, sacīdami: Šis ir tā sauktais lielais Dieva spēks.
11And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.
11Bet viņi tāpēc to ievēroja, ka tas ilgu laiku ar savām burvībām tos bija apmulsinājis.
12But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
12Bet kad tie noticēja Filipam, kas sludināja Dieva valstību, vīrieši un sievietes tika kristīti Jēzus Kristus vārdā.
13Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done.
13Tad arī pats Sīmanis kļuva ticīgs un, pieņēmis kristību, piebiedrojās Filipam, bet viņš, redzēdams notiekam zīmes un lielus brīnumus, apmulsis brīnījās.
14Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:
14Kad apustuļi, kas bija Jeruzalemē, izdzirda, ka Samarija pieņēmusi Dieva vārdu, tie sūtīja pie viņiem Pēteri un Jāni.
15Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:
15Tie atnākuši lūdza Dievu par viņiem, lai tie saņemtu Svēto Garu.
16(For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)
16Jo Tas vēl ne pār vienu no viņiem nebija nācis, bet viņi bija kristīti tikai Kunga Jēzus vārdā.
17Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
17Tad viņi uzlika tiem rokas, un tie saņēma Svēto Garu.
18And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
18Bet Sīmanis, redzēdams, ka caur apustuļu roku uzlikšanu tiek dots Svētais Gars, piedāvāja tiem naudu,
19Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
19Sacīdams: Dodiet arī man šo varu, lai ikviens, kam es uzlikšu rokas, saņemtu Svēto Garu! Bet Pēteris sacīja viņam:
20But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
20Tava nauda lai iet ar tevi pazušanā, jo tu domāji Dieva dāvanu par naudu iemantot!
21Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
21Tev nav ne daļas, nedz mantojuma no šīs mācības, jo tava sirds nav taisnīga Dieva priekšā.
22Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.
22Tāpēc atgriezies no šī sava ļaunuma un lūdz Dievu! Varbūt šī tavas sirds iedoma tiks tev piedota.
23For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.
23Kā es redzu, tu esi žults rūgtuma pilns un netaisnības saitēs.
24Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the LORD for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.
24Bet Sīmanis atbildēja, sacīdams: Lūdziet jūs Kungu par mani, lai nekas no tā, ko jūs sacījāt, nenāk pār mani!
25And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.
25Tad viņi, Dieva vārdu apliecinājuši un pavēstījuši, griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzalemi un vēl daudziem Samarijas apgabaliem sludināja evaņģēliju.
26And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
26Tad Kunga eņģelis sacīja Filipam: Celies un ej uz dienvidiem pa ceļu, kas ved no Jeruzalemes uz Gazu, kas ir tuksnešains!
27And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,
27Viņš cēlās un aizgāja. Un, lūk, kāds vīrs no Etiopijas, einuhs, Etiopijas ķēniņienes Kandakes pilnvarnieks, kas pārvaldīja visas viņas mantnīcas, bija ieradies Jeruzalemē pielūgt Dievu.
28Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
28Un atceļā, sēdēdams savos ratos, viņš lasīja pravieti Isaju.
29Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
29Tad Gars sacīja Filipam: Ej un piebiedrojies šiem ratiem!
30And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
30Filips piesteidzies un izdzirdis viņu lasām pravieti Isaju, sacīja: Vai tu domā, ka saproti, ko tu lasi?
31And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
31Viņš sacīja: Kā lai es to varu, ja man neviens nepaskaidro? Un viņš lūdza Filipu iekāpt un apsēsties pie viņa.
32The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
32Bet Rakstu vieta, ko viņš lasīja, bija šī: It kā avs, ko veda nokaušanai, un kā jērs kluss cirpēja priekšā, tā Viņš neatvēra savu muti.
33In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
33Viņa pazemošanai tiesa tika atcelta. Kas izstāstīs Viņa cilti, jo Viņa dzīvība tiek paņemta no šīs zemes? (Is.53,7-8)
34And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
34Tad einuhs jautāja Filipam, sacīdams: Es tevi lūdzu, par ko pravietis to saka? Par sevi vai par kādu citu?
35Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
35Bet Filips, atdarījis savu muti, un iesākdams ar šiem Rakstiem, sludināja viņam Jēzu.
36And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
36Un viņi, ceļu turpinādami, nokļuva pie kāda ūdens; un einuhs sacīja: Lūk, ūdens! Kas mani kavē kristīties?
37And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
37Filips sacīja: Ja tu no visas sirds tici, tad to var. Un viņš atbildēja, sacīdams: Es ticu, ka Jēzus Kristus ir Dieva Dēls.
38And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
38Un viņš pavēlēja apturēt ratus, un viņi abi, Filips un einuhs, iekāpa ūdenī, un viņš to kristīja.
39And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
39Kad viņi izkāpa no ūdens, tā Kunga Gars aizrāva Filipu, un einuhs viņu vairs neredzēja, bet līksms turpināja ceļu.
40But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
40Bet Filips tika atrasts Azotā un, evaņģēliju sludinādams, pārstaigāja visas pilsētas, kamēr nonāca Cēzarejā.
