¹And certain men came down from Judaea and taught the brethren, [saying], Except ye be circumcised after the custom of Moses, ye cannot be saved.

¹A prišli niektorí z Judska dolu a učili bratov, že vraj jestli sa neobrežete podľa obyčaje Mojžišovej, nemôžete byť spasení.

²And when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and questioning with them, [the brethren] appointed that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.

²A keď preto povstala vzbura a nemalá hádka Pavlovi a Barnabášovi s nimi, ustanovili, aby Pavel a Barnabáš a ešte niektorí iní z nich išli k apoštolom a starším hore do Jeruzalema o tento spor.

³They therefore, being brought on their way by the church, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.

³A oni tedy vyprevadení súc od sboru išli cez Feníciu a Samáriu rozprávajúc o obrátení pohanov a pôsobili všetkým bratom velikú radosť.

⁴And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church and the apostles and the elders, and they rehearsed all things that God had done with them.

⁴A keď prišli do Jeruzalema, boli prijatí od sboru aj od apoštolov aj od starších a zvestovali, čo všetko učinil s nimi Bôh.

⁵But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees who believed, saying, It is needful to circumcise them, and to charge them to keep the law of Moses.

⁵Ale vraj povstali niektorí zo sekty farizeov, ktorí uverili, a hovoria, že sa musia obrezovať, a že sa im má prikázať, aby zachovávali zákon Mojžišov.

⁶And the apostles and the elders were gathered together to consider of this matter.

⁶Vtedy sa sišli apoštolovia a starší, aby videli a uvážili o tej veci.

⁷And when there had been much questioning, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Brethren, ye know that a good while ago God made choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

⁷A po mnohom dohadovaní sa povstal Peter a povedal im: Mužovia bratia, vy viete, že si Bôh od dávnych dňov vyvolil medzi nami, aby skrze moje ústa počuli pohania slovo evanjelia a uverili.

⁸And God, who knoweth the heart, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit, even as he did unto us;

⁸A Bôh, ktorý zná srdce, im dal svedoctvo dajúc im Svätého Ducha jako i nám

⁹and he made no distinction between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith.

⁹a neurobil nijakého rozdielu medzi nami a medzi nimi očistiac vierou ich srdcia.

¹⁰Now therefore why make ye trial of God, that ye should put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

¹⁰A tak teraz čo pokúšate Boha chcúc vzložiť jarmo na krk učeníkom, ktoré ani naši otcovia ani my sme nevládali uniesť?

¹¹But we believe that we shall be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in like manner as they.

¹¹Ale veríme, že skrze milosť Pána Ježiša Krista budeme spasení na ten istý spôsob ako aj oni.

¹²And all the multitude kept silence; and they hearkened unto Barnabas and Paul rehearsing what signs and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles through them.

¹²A umĺklo všetko množstvo a počúvali Barnabáša a Pavla, ktorí vyprávali, jaké mnohé divy a zázraky činil Bôh skrze nich medzi pohanmi.

¹³And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Brethren, hearken unto me:

¹³A keď umĺkli, odpovedal Jakob a povedal: Mužovia bratia, počujte ma!

¹⁴Symeon hath rehearsed how first God visited the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.

¹⁴Šimon práve rozprával, ako Bôh najprv pohliadol, aby vzal z pohanov ľud na svoje meno.

¹⁵And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,

¹⁵A s tým sa srovnávajú slová prorokov, ako je napísané:

¹⁶After these things I will return, And I will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen; And I will build again the ruins thereof, And I will set it up:

¹⁶Potom sa navrátim a zase vystavím padlý stán Dávidov i jeho zboreniny znova vybudujem a postavím ho rovno,

¹⁷That the residue of men may seek after the Lord, And all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called,

¹⁷aby pozostalí z ľudí vyhľadali Pána i všetky národy, nad ktorými bolo vzývané moje meno, hovorí Pán ktorý činí toto všetko.

¹⁸Saith the Lord, who maketh these things known from of old.

¹⁸Známe sú Bohu od veku všetky jeho diela.

¹⁹Wherefore my judgment is, that we trouble not them that from among the Gentiles turn to God;

¹⁹Preto ja súdim neznepokojovať tých, ktorí sa z pohanov obracajú k Bohu,

²⁰but that we write unto them, that they abstain from the pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from what is strangled, and from blood.

²⁰ale napísať im, aby sa zdŕžali od poškvŕn modiel a od smilstva, od zaduseného a od krvi.

²¹For Moses from generations of old hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath.

²¹Lebo Mojžiš má od dávnych pokolení po mestách tých, ktorí ho hlásajú, a číta sa po synagógach každú sobotu.

²²Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose men out of their company, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; [namely], Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:

²²Vtedy sa videlo za dobré apoštolom a starším s celou cirkvou vyvoliť si spomedzi seba mužov a poslať ich do Antiochie s Pavlom a Barnabášom, Júdu, zvaného Barsabáša, a Sílasa, mužov, vedúcich medzi bratmi,

²³and they wrote [thus] by them, The apostles and the elders, brethren, unto the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, greeting:

²³a napísali po nich toto: Apoštolovia a starší a bratia pozdravujú bratov z pohanov, bratov, ktorí sú v Antiochii, Sýrii a Cilícii.

²⁴Forasmuch as we have heard that certain who went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls; to whom we gave no commandment;

²⁴Pretože sme počuli, že niektorí z nás vyjdúc znepokojili vás rečami a rozvracajú vaše duše hovoriac, že sa musíte obrezovať a zachovávať zákon, ktorým sme toho nenaručili,

²⁵it seemed good unto us, having come to one accord, to choose out men and send them unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

²⁵videlo sa nám za dobré, prišedším na jednu myseľ, vybrať si mužov a poslať ich k vám s našimi milovanými, s Barnabášom a Pavlom,

²⁶men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

²⁶s ľuďmi to, ktorí vydali svoje životy za meno nášho Pána Ježiša Krista.

²⁷We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves also shall tell you the same things by word of mouth.

²⁷Poslali sme tedy Júdu a Sílasa, ktorí aj sami ústne povedia to isté.

²⁸For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:

²⁸Lebo za dobré sa videlo Svätému Duchu i nám neuvaľovať na vás viacej nijakého bremena krome toho nevyhnuteľne potrebného:

²⁹that ye abstain from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which if ye keep yourselves, it shall be well with you. Fare ye well.

²⁹zdržovať sa od obetovaného modlám, od krvi, od zaduseného a od smilstva, čoho keď sa budete veľmi vystríhať, budete dobre robiť. Buďte zdraví!

³⁰So they, when they were dismissed, came down to Antioch; and having gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle.

³⁰A tak oni súc prepustení prišli dolu do Antiochie a shromaždiac množstvo podali list.

³¹And when they had read it, they rejoiced for the consolation.

³¹A keď prečítali, zaradovali sa potešeniu.

³²And Judas and Silas, being themselves also prophets, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.

³²A Júdas a Sílas, ktorí boli aj sami prorokmi, napomínali bratov mnohými slovami a upevňovali.

³³And after they had spent some time [there], they were dismissed in peace from the brethren unto those that had sent them forth.

³³A keď tam pobudli nejaký čas, boli prepustení od bratov s pokojom k tým, ktorí ich poslali.

³⁴[But it seemed good unto Silas to abide there.]

³⁴Ale Sílasovi sa videlo za dobré zostať tu.

³⁵But Paul and Barnabas tarried in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.

³⁵A Pavel a Barnabáš zdržovali sa v Antiochii učiac a zvestujúc, aj s mnohými inými, slovo Pánovo.

³⁶And after some days Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us return now and visit the brethren in every city wherein we proclaimed the word of the Lord, [and see] how they fare.

³⁶A po niekoľkých dňoch povedal Pavel Barnabášovi: Nože sa vráťme a ponavštevujme svojich bratov po všetkých mestách, v ktorých sme zvestovali slovo Pánovo, a vidzme, jako sa majú.

³⁷And Barnabas was minded to take with them John also, who was called Mark.

³⁷A Barnabáš radil, aby pojali so sebou i Jána, zvaného Marka.

³⁸But Paul thought not good to take with them him who withdrew from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.

³⁸Ale Pavel uznával za správne nepojímať so sebou toho, ktorý odišiel od nich z Pamfýlie a neišiel s nimi k dielu.

³⁹And there arose a sharp contention, so that they parted asunder one from the other, and Barnabas took Mark with him, and sailed away unto Cyprus;

³⁹A z toho povstalo také roznietenie, že sa rozišli, a že Barnabáš pojal so sebou Marka a odplavil sa do Cypru,

⁴⁰but Paul choose Silas, and went forth, being commended by the brethren to the grace of the Lord.

⁴⁰a Pavel si zvolil k sebe Sílasa a odišiel tiež poručený súc od bratov milosti Pánovej a chodil po Sýrii a Cilícii a upevňoval sbory.

⁴¹And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
