¹Aga apostlid ja vennad, kes elasid mööda Juudamaad laiali, said kuulda, et ka paganad olid Jumala sõna vastu võtnud.

¹And the apostles and the brethren who were in Judaea heard that the nations also had received the word of God;

²Kui nüüd Peetrus tuli üles Jeruusalemma, riidlesid ümberlõigatud temaga:

²and when Peter went up to Jerusalem, they of the circumcision contended with him,

³'Sina oled astunud sisse ümberlõikamata meeste juurde ja söönud koos nendega!'

³saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised and hast eaten with them.

⁴Siis Peetrus hakkas rääkima ja seletas neile järgemööda kõik:

⁴But Peter began and set forth [the matter] to them in order, saying,

⁵'Mina olin Joppe linnas palvetamas ja nägin nagu endast ära olles nägemuse: üks anum, mida lasti nelja nurka pidi taevast maa peale, laskus nagu suur lina ja tuli otse minu ette.

⁵I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in an ecstasy I saw a vision, a certain vessel descending like a great sheet, let down by four corners out of heaven, and it came even to me:

⁶Ja kui ma seda ainiti vaatasin, nägin ma ilmamaa neljajalgseid ja metsloomi ja roomajaid ja taeva linde.

⁶on which having fixed mine eyes, I considered, and saw the quadrupeds of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of the heaven.

⁷Aga ma kuulsin ka häält mulle ütlevat: 'Tõuse, Peetrus, tapa ja söö!'

⁷And I heard also a voice saying to me, Rise up, Peter, slay and eat.

⁸Aga mina ütlesin: 'Ei ilmaski, Issand, sest minu suust ei ole veel kunagi sisse läinud midagi keelatut ega rüvedat!'

⁸And I said, In no wise, Lord, for common or unclean has never entered into my mouth.

⁹Hääl taevast ütles aga teist korda: 'Mida Jumal on puhtaks tunnistanud, seda sina ära pea keelatuks!'

⁹And a voice answered the second time out of heaven, What God has cleansed, do not *thou* make common.

¹⁰See sündis kolm korda, ja kõik tõmmati jälle üles taevasse.

¹⁰And this took place thrice, and again all was drawn up into heaven;

¹¹Ja ennäe, otsekohe seisis koja ees, kus me olime, kolm meest, kes olid läkitatud Kaisareast minu juurde.

¹¹and lo, immediately three men were at the house in which I was, sent to me from Caesarea.

¹²Aga Vaim ütles mulle, et ma läheksin nendega kaasa ilma kõhklemata. Minuga tulid koos ka need kuus venda ja me läksime selle mehe majja.

¹²And the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting. And there went with me these six brethren also, and we entered into the house of the man,

¹³Ja tema jutustas meile, kuidas ta oli näinud inglit oma majas seismas ja ütlemas: 'Läkita mehi Joppesse ja kutsu Siimon, kelle hüüdnimi on Peetrus.

¹³and he related to us how he had seen the angel in his house, standing and saying [to him], Send [men] to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter,

¹⁴Tema räägib sulle sõnu, mille läbi sina ja kogu su pere saate päästetud.'

¹⁴who shall speak words to thee whereby *thou* shalt be saved, thou and all thy house.

¹⁵Kui ma siis hakkasin rääkima, langes Püha Vaim nende peale nii nagu meiegi peale alguses.

¹⁵And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them even as upon us also at the beginning.

¹⁶Siis tuli mulle meelde Issanda sõna, kuidas ta ütles: 'Johannes ristis küll veega, aga teid ristitakse Püha Vaimuga.'

¹⁶And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, John baptised with water, but *ye* shall be baptised with [the] Holy Spirit.

¹⁷Kui nüüd Jumal on andnud neile samasuguse anni kui meilegi, kes me usume Issandasse Jeesusesse Kristusesse, kes olen siis mina, et ma oleksin võinud Jumalat keelata?'

¹⁷If then God has given them the same gift as also to us when we had believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who indeed was *I* to be able to forbid God?

¹⁸Seda kuuldes nad rahunesid ja andsid Jumalale au, üteldes: 'Siis on Jumal ka paganatele andnud meeleparanduse eluks.'

¹⁸And when they heard these things they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then indeed God has to the nations also granted repentance to life.

¹⁹Need, kes olid Stefanose pärast tekkinud viletsuses hajutatud, käisid mööda maad Foiniikiani ja Küprose saareni ja Antiookiani, rääkides sõna ainuüksi juutidele.

¹⁹They then who had been scattered abroad through the tribulation that took place on the occasion of Stephen, passed through [the country] to Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one but to Jews alone.

²⁰Nende hulgas oli ka Küprose ja Küreene mehi, need rääkisid pärast Antiookiasse jõudmist ka kreeklastele, kuulutades neile evangeeliumi Issandast Jeesusest.

²⁰But there were certain of them, Cyprians and Cyrenians, who entering into Antioch spoke to the Greeks also, announcing the glad tidings of the Lord Jesus.

²¹Issanda käsi oli nendega, ja suur oli nende arv, kes uskuma hakates pöördusid Issanda poole.

²¹And [the] Lord's hand was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.

²²Aga jutt nendest kostis Jeruusalemmas oleva koguduse kõrvu ja nad läkitasid Barnabase Antiookiasse.

²²And the report concerning them reached the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go through as far as Antioch:

²³Kui ta pärale jõudis ja nägi Jumala armu, sai ta rõõmsaks ja julgustas kõiki jääma kindlameelselt Issanda omaks.

²³who, having arrived and seeing the grace of God, rejoiced, and exhorted all with purpose of heart to abide with the Lord;

²⁴Sest ta oli hea mees, täis Püha Vaimu ja usku. Ja palju rahvast lisati Issanda omade hulka.

²⁴for he was a good man and full of [the] Holy Spirit and of faith; and a large crowd [of people] were added to the Lord.

²⁵Siis läks Barnabas Tarsosesse Saulust otsima,

²⁵And he went away to Tarsus to seek out Saul.

²⁶ja kui ta leidis tema, tõi ta tema Antiookiasse. Ning nad käisid terve aasta koos koguduses ja õpetasid suurt hulka rahvast. Ja see oli Antiookias, kus jüngreid esimest korda hakati nimetama kristlasteks.

²⁶And having found [him], he brought him to Antioch. And so it was with them that for a whole year they were gathered together in the assembly and taught a large crowd: and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.

²⁷Noil päevil tuli prohveteid Jeruusalemmast Antiookiasse.

²⁷Now in these days prophets went down from Jerusalem to Antioch;

²⁸Üks neist, Agabos nimi, tõusis ja andis Vaimu läbi teada, et suur nälg on tulemas kogu riigis. Nõnda ka sündis keiser Klaudiuse ajal.

²⁸and one from among them, by name Agabus, rose up and signified by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine over all the inhabited earth, which also came to pass under Claudius.

²⁹Aga iga jünger otsustas saata Juudamaal elavatele vendadele abi, nii kuidas kellegi käekäik lubas.

²⁹And they determined, according as any one of the disciples was well off, each of them to send to the brethren who dwelt in Judaea, to minister [to them];

³⁰Seda nad tegidki, läkitades annid Barnabase ja Sauluse kaudu vanematele.

³⁰which also they did, sending it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
