¹Now [there was] a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of the band called the Italian [band],

¹A bol nejaký muž v Cezárei, menom Kornelius, stotník z čaty, zvanej Italskej,

²a devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, who gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always.

²nábožný a bojaci sa Boha s celým svojím domom, ktorý dával ľudu mnoho almužien

³He saw in a vision openly, as it were about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God coming in unto him, and saying to him, Cornelius.

³a vždy sa modlieval Bohu. Ten videl zreteľne vo videní vodne, okolo deviatej hodiny anjela Božieho, že vošiel k nemu a povedal mu: Kornelius!

⁴And he, fastening his eyes upon him, and being affrighted, said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are gone up for a memorial before God.

⁴A on pozrel upreným hlasom na neho a povedal, prestrašený: Čo je Pane? A on mu povedal: Tvoje modlitby a tvoje almužny vstúpily na pamäť pred Bohom.

⁵And now send men to Joppa, and fetch one Simon, who is surnamed Peter:

⁵A tak teraz pošli mužov do Joppy a zavolaj Šimona, ktorý má prímeno Peter.

⁶he lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side.

⁶Ten pohostíni u nejakého Šimona, koželuha, ktorý má dom pri mori, ten ti povie, čo máš robiť.

⁷And when the angel that spake unto him was departed, he called two of his household-servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;

⁷A jako odišiel anjel, ktorý hovoril Korneliovi, Kornelius zavolal dvoch zo svojich čeľadínov a jedného pobožného vojaka z tých, ktorí sa ho pridŕžali,

⁸and having rehearsed all things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.

⁸a keď im porozprával všetko, poslal ich do Joppy.

⁹Now on the morrow, as they were on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour:

⁹A druhého dňa, keď oni išli a blížili sa k mestu, vyšiel Peter na postrešie domu pomodliť sa, okolo šiestej hodiny.

¹⁰and he became hungry, and desired to eat: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance;

¹⁰A veľmi zlačnel a chcel jesť. A kým oni hotovili, pripadlo na neho vytrženie,

¹¹and he beholdeth the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great sheet, let down by four corners upon the earth:

¹¹a videl nebo otvorené, a že sostupuje na neho jakási nádoba jako veliký obrus, uviazaný za štyri rohy a spúšťajúci sa na zem,

¹²wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts and creeping things of the earth and birds of the heaven.

¹²v ktorom boly všelijaké štvornohé zvieratá zemské i divá zver i zemeplazy i nebeské vtáctvo:

¹³And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill and eat.

¹³A prehovoril k nemu hlas: Vstaň, Petre, bi a jedz!

¹⁴But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common and unclean.

¹⁴A Peter povedal: nijakým činom, Pane, lebo som nikdy nejedol ničoho obecného alebo nečistého.

¹⁵And a voice [came] unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, make not thou common.

¹⁵A hlas mu zase povedal po druhé: Toho, čo Bôh očistil, ty nemaj za nečisté!

¹⁶And this was done thrice: and straightway the vessel was received up into heaven.

¹⁶A to sa stalo po tri razy, a nádoba bola zase hneď vzatá hore do neba.

¹⁷Now while Peter was much perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men that were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon's house, stood before the gate,

¹⁷A kým bol Peter sám v sebe v rozpakoch a rozmýšľal, čo má znamenať videnie, ktoré videl, tu hľa, mužovia, poslaní od Kornelia, dopýtajúc sa na dom Šimona zastáli pri bráne.

¹⁸and called and asked whether Simon, who was surnamed Peter, were lodging there.

¹⁸A zavolali a pýtali sa, či tam pohostíni Šimon, s prímenom Peter?

¹⁹And while Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.

¹⁹A keď rozmýšľal Peter o videní, povedal mu Duch: Hľa, traja mužovia ťa hľadajú.

²⁰But arise, and get thee down, and go with them, nothing doubting: for I have sent them.

²⁰Ale vstaň, sídi a iď s nimi a nič nepochybuj, pretože som ich ja poslal.

²¹And Peter went down to the men, and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?

²¹Keď potom sišiel Peter za mužmi, ktorí boli poslaní k nemu od Kornelia, povedal: Hľa, ja som ten, ktorého hľadáte. Jaká je to príčina, pre ktorú ste prišli?

²²And they said, Cornelius a centurion, a righteous man and one that feareth God, and well reported of by all the nation of the Jews, was warned [of God] by a holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words from thee.

²²A oni povedali: Stotník Kornelius, muž, spravedlivý a bohabojný a ktorému dáva celý židovský národ dobré svedoctvo, dostal vo videní rozkaz od svätého anjela, aby ťa povolal do svojho domu a počul slová od teba.

²³So he called them in and lodged them. And on the morrow he arose and went forth with them, and certain of the brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

²³Vtedy ich zavolal do vnútra a pohostil. A na druhý deň vstal Peter a vyšiel s nimi, a išli s ním aj niektorí z bratov z Joppy.

²⁴And on the morrow they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his kinsmen and his near friends.

²⁴A druhého dňa vošli do Cezáree, a Kornelius ich očakával, keď bol svolal k sebe svojich príbuzných a blízkych priateľov.

²⁵And when it came to pass that Peter entered, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.

²⁵A keď už bol vošiel Peter, a keď sa s ním stretol Kornelius, Kornelius padol k jeho nohám a klaňal sa.

²⁶But Peter raised him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.

²⁶Ale Peter ho pozdvihol a povedal: Vstaň, veď i ja sám som človek.

²⁷And as he talked with him, he went in, and findeth many come together:

²⁷A shovárajúc sa s ním vošiel dnu a našiel mnohých, ktorí sa boli sišli.

²⁸and he said unto them, Ye yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to join himself or come unto one of another nation; and [yet] unto me hath God showed that I should not call any man common or unclean:

²⁸A povedal im: Vy viete, jako neslušné je človeku Židovi pripojiť sa alebo pristúpiť k človekovi z iného národa. Ale mne ukázal Bôh, aby som nehovoril o niktorom človekovi, že je obecný alebo nečistý.

²⁹wherefore also I came without gainsaying, when I was sent for. I ask therefore with what intent ye sent for me.

²⁹Preto som aj súc povolaný prišiel bez odporu. A tak sa pýtam, pre ktorú príčinu ste poslali pre mňa?

³⁰And Cornelius said, Four days ago, until this hour, I was keeping the ninth hour of prayer in my house; and behold, a man stood before me in bright apparel,

³⁰A Kornelius povedal: Pred štyrmi dňami som sa postil až do tejto hodiny a v deviatu hodinu som sa modlil vo svojom dome. A tu hľa, razom sa postavil predo mnou muž vo skvelom rúchu bielom

³¹and saith, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.

³¹a povedal: Kornelius, tvoja modlitba je vyslyšaná, a tvoje almužny sa spomenuly pred Bohom.

³²Send therefore to Joppa, and call unto thee Simon, who is surnamed Peter; he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea side.

³²Pošli tedy do Joppy a povolaj Šimona, ktorý má prímeno Peter; býva v dome koželuha Šimona, pri mori, ktorý, keď prijde, rozpovie ti všetko.

³³Forthwith therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God, to hear all things that have been commanded thee of the Lord.

³³nuž tak som naskutku poslal k tebe, a ty si dobre urobil, že si prišiel. A tak teraz sme tu my všetci pred tvárou Božou, aby sme počuli všetko, čo ti je nariadené od Pána.

³⁴And Peter opened his mouth and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

³⁴Vtedy otvoril Peter ústa a povedal: V pravde poznávam, že Bôh nehľadí na osobu,

³⁵but in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is acceptable to him.

³⁵ale že v každom národe ten, kto sa ho bojí a činí spravedlivosť, je príjemný jemu.

³⁶The word which he sent unto the children of Israel, preaching good tidings of peace by Jesus Christ (He is Lord of all.) --

³⁶Slovo, ktoré poslal Bôh synom Izraelovým zvestujúc pokoj skrze Ježiša Krista - a on je Pánom všetkého -,

³⁷that saying ye yourselves know, which was published throughout all Judaea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

³⁷vy viete o tom, čo sa dialo po celom Judsku počnúc od Galilee po krste, ktorý hlásal Ján,

³⁸[even] Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

³⁸o Ježišovi z Nazareta, jako ho pomazal Bôh Svätým Duchom a mocou, ktorý prešiel zem dobre činiac a uzdravujúc všetkých, ktorí boli premožení od diabla a držaní v jeho moci, pretože bol s ním Bôh.

³⁹And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom also they slew, hanging him on a tree.

³⁹A my sme svedkami všetkého, čo činil ako v krajine Židov, tak i v Jeruzaleme, ktorého i zabili povesiac ho na drevo.

⁴⁰Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made manifest,

⁴⁰Toho Bôh vzkriesil tretieho dňa a dal mu, aby sa zjavil,

⁴¹not to all the people, but unto witnesses that were chosen before of God, [even] to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

⁴¹nie všetkému ľudu, ale svedkom, vopred vyvoleným od Boha, nám, ktorí sme s ním jedli a pili po jeho vstaní z mŕtvych.

⁴²And he charged us to preach unto the people, and to testify that this is he who is ordained of God [to be] the Judge of the living and the dead.

⁴²A prikázal nám, aby sme hlásali ľudu a dôrazne svedčili, že on je tým od Boha určeným sudcom živých aj mŕtvych.

⁴³To him bear all the prophets witness, that through his name every one that believeth on him shall receive remission of sins.

⁴³Jemu vydávajú svedoctvo všetci proroci, že odpustenie hriechov dostane skrze jeho meno každý, kto verí v neho.

⁴⁴While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all them that heard the word.

⁴⁴A kým Peter ešte hovoril tieto slová, sostúpil Svätý Duch na všetkých, ktorí počúvali slovo.

⁴⁵And they of the circumcision that believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Spirit.

⁴⁵Vtedy užasli všetci veriaci z obriezky, ktorí boli prišli s Petrom, že i na pohanov je vyliaty dar Svätého Ducha;

⁴⁶For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

⁴⁶lebo ich počuli hovoriť jazykmi a velebiť Boha. Vtedy odpovedal Peter:

⁴⁷Can any man forbid the water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?

⁴⁷Či potom môže niekto zabrániť vode, aby títo neboli pokrstení, ktorí prijali Svätého Ducha jako aj my?

⁴⁸And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

⁴⁸A rozkázal ich pokrstiť v mene Pána Ježiša Krista. Vtedy ho prosili, žeby zostal u nich niekoľko dní.
