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

¹Now the apostles and the brothers The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.

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

²When Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,

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

³saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men, and ate with them!”

⁴Siis Peetrus hakkas rääkima ja seletas neile järgemööda kõik:

⁴But Peter began, and explained 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.

⁵“I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.

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

⁶When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky.

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

⁷I also heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter, kill and eat!’

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

⁸But I said, ‘Not so, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.’

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

⁹But a voice answered me the second time out of heaven, ‘What God has cleansed, don’t you call unclean.’

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

¹⁰This was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.

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

¹¹Behold, immediately three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.

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

¹²The Spirit told me to go with them, without discriminating. These six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered into the man’s house.

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

¹³He told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, and saying to him, ‘Send to Joppa, and get Simon, whose surname is Peter,

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

¹⁴who will speak to you words by which you will be saved, you and all your house.’

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

¹⁵As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as on us at the beginning.

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

¹⁶I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in 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 gave to them the same gift as us, when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?”

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

¹⁸When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles 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 therefore who were scattered abroad by the oppression that arose about Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except to Jews only.

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

²⁰But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, A Hellenist is someone who keeps Greek customs and culture. preaching the Lord Jesus.

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

²¹The hand of the Lord 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.

²²The report concerning them came to the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem. They sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch,

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

²³who, when he had come, and had seen the grace of God, was glad. He exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they should remain near to 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 many people were added to the Lord.

²⁵Siis läks Barnabas Tarsosesse Saulust otsima,

²⁵Barnabas went out to Tarsus to look for 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.

²⁶When he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. It happened, that for a whole year they were gathered together with the assembly, and taught many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.

²⁷Noil päevil tuli prohveteid Jeruusalemmast Antiookiasse.

²⁷Now in these days, prophets came 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.

²⁸One of them named Agabus stood up, and indicated by the Spirit that there should be a great famine all over the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius.

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

²⁹As any of the disciples had plenty, each determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea;

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

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