¹A keď sa odtrhli od nich a odplavili sme sa, prišli sme priamym behom do Kósu a nasledujúceho dňa do Ródu a odtiaľ do Patary.

¹And it came to pass, at our sailing, having been parted from them, having run direct, we came to Coos, and the succeeding [day] to Rhodes, and thence to Patara,

²A najdúc loď, ktorá sa plavila krížom do Fenície, sadli sme na ňu a odplavili sme sa.

²and having found a ship passing over to Phenicia, having gone on board, we sailed,

³A keď sa nám ukázal Cyprus, a zanechali sme ho po ľavej strane, plavili sme sa do Sýrie a doplavili sme sa do Týru, lebo ta mala loď složiť náklad.

³and having discovered Cyprus, and having left it on the left, we were sailing to Syria, and did land at Tyre, for there was the ship discharging the lading.

⁴A vyhľadajúc učeníkov zostali sme tam sedem dní, ktorí hovorili Pavlovi skrze Ducha, aby nechodil hore do Jeruzalema.

⁴And having found out the disciples, we tarried there seven days, and they said to Paul, through the Spirit, not to go up to Jerusalem;

⁵A keď sme tam vybudli tie dni, vyšli sme a išli, a všetci nás odprevádzali so ženami i s deťmi až von za mesto, a kľaknúc na pobreží pomodlili sme sa.

⁵but when it came that we completed the days, having gone forth, we went on, all bringing us on the way, with women and children, unto the outside of the city, and having bowed the knees upon the shore, we prayed,

⁶A keď sme sa spolu rozlúčili, vošli sme do lode, a oni sa vrátili domov.

⁶and having embraced one another, we embarked in the ship, and they returned to their own friends.

⁷A my, keď sme dokončili plavbu z Týru, prišli sme do Ptolemaidy a pozdraviac bratov zostali sme u nich jeden deň.

⁷And we, having finished the course, from Tyre came down to Ptolemais, and having saluted the brethren, we remained one day with them;

⁸Potom na druhý deň sme vyšli, ktorí sme boli okolo Pavla, a prišli sme do Cezáree. A vošli sme do domu Filipa, evanjelistu, ktorý bol jedným z tých siedmich, a zostali sme u neho.

⁸and on the morrow Paul and his company having gone forth, we came to Cesarea, and having entered into the house of Philip the evangelist — who is of the seven — we remained with him,

⁹Ten mal štyri dcéry, panny, ktoré prorokovaly.

⁹and this one had four daughters, virgins, prophesying.

¹⁰A kým sme tam boli za viacej dní, prišiel z Judska dolu nejaký prorok, menom Agabus.

¹⁰And we remaining many more days, there came down a certain one from Judea, a prophet, by name Agabus,

¹¹A keď prišiel k nám, vzal Pavlov pás, poviazal si nohy i ruky a povedal: Toto hovorí Svätý Duch: Takto poviažu v Jeruzaleme Židia muža, ktorého je tento pás, a vydajú ho do rúk pohanom.

¹¹and he having come unto us, and having taken up the girdle of Paul, having bound also his own hands and feet, said, `Thus saith the Holy Spirit, The man whose is this girdle — so shall the Jews in Jerusalem bind, and they shall deliver [him] up to the hands of nations.`

¹²A keď sme to počuli, prosili sme aj my aj miestni bratia, žeby neišiel hore do Jeruzalema.

¹²And when we heard these things, we called upon [him] — both we, and those of that place — not to go up to Jerusalem,

¹³Ale Pavel odpovedal: Čo to robíte, že plačete a krúšite moje srdce? Lebo veď ja som hotový nie len sa dať poviazať, ale i zomrieť v Jeruzaleme za meno Pána Ježiša.

¹³and Paul answered, `What do ye — weeping, and crushing mine heart? for I, not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem, am ready, for the name of the Lord Jesus;`

¹⁴A keď sa len nedal odhovoriť, umĺkli sme a povedali: Nech sa stane vôľa Pánova.

¹⁴and he not being persuaded, we were silent, saying, `The will of the Lord be done.`

¹⁵A po tých dňoch sme sa pripravili a išli sme hore do Jeruzalema.

¹⁵And after these days, having taken [our] vessels, we were going up to Jerusalem,

¹⁶A išli s nami aj niektorí z učeníkov z Cezáree vedúc so sebou istého Mnázona Cyprianskeho, dávneho učeníka, u ktorého sme mali bývať.

¹⁶and there went also of the disciples from Cesarea with us, bringing with them him with whom we may lodge, a certain Mnason of Cyprus, an aged disciple.

¹⁷A keď sme prišli do Jeruzalema, radi nás prijali bratia.

¹⁷And we having come to Jerusalem, the brethren did gladly receive us,

¹⁸A na druhý deň vošiel Pavel s nami k Jakobovi, a prišli ta i všetci starší.

¹⁸and on the morrow Paul was going in with us unto James, all the elders also came,

¹⁹A keď ich pozdravil, rozprával všetko dopodrobna, čo učinil Bôh skrze jeho službu medzi pohanmi.

¹⁹and having saluted them, he was declaring, one by one, each of the things God did among the nations through his ministration,

²⁰A oni, keď to počuli, oslavovali Boha a povedali: Vidíš, bratu, jaké mnohé desaťtisíce Židov sú, ktorí uverili, a všetci sú horlivcami zákona.

²⁰and they having heard, were glorifying the Lord. They said also to him, `Thou seest, brother, how many myriads there are of Jews who have believed, and all are zealous of the law,

²¹Ale o tebe sú tak poučení, že učíš všetkých Židov, ktorí sú medzi pohanmi, odpadnutie od Mojžiša a vraj hovoríš, aby neobrezovali detí ani nerobili podľa tých obyčají.

²¹and they are instructed concerning thee, that apostacy from Moses thou dost teach to all Jews among the nations, saying — Not to circumcise the children, nor after the customs to walk;

²²Čo je tedy? Na každý spôsob sa musí sísť množstvo, lebo sa dopočujú, že si prišiel.

²²what then is it? certainly the multitude it behoveth to come together, for they will hear that thou hast come.

²³Urob tedy to, čo ti hovoríme: Máme štyroch mužov, ktorí majú na sebe sľub;

²³`This, therefore, do that we say to thee: We have four men having a vow on themselves,

²⁴pojmi si tých a očisti sa obradne s nimi a vynalož na nich, koľko vyžaduje ich sľub, aby si dali ostrihať hlavu, a zvedia všetci, že nie je nič pravdy na tom, čo počuli o tebe, ale že aj sám zachovávaš zákon.

²⁴these having taken, be purified with them, and be at expence with them, that they may shave the head, and all may know that the things of which they have been instructed concerning thee are nothing, but thou dost walk — thyself also — the law keeping.

²⁵A ohľadom uverivších pohanov sme my písali usúdiac, že nemusia zachovávať ničoho z toho, len aby sa chránili obetovaného modlám, krvi, zaduseného a smilstva.

²⁵`And concerning those of the nations who have believed, we have written, having given judgment, that they observe no such thing, except to keep themselves both from idol-sacrifices, and blood, and a strangled thing, and whoredom.`

²⁶Vtedy pojal Pavel mužov a nasledujúceho dňa obradne sa s nimi očistiac chodil do chrámu a oznamoval vyplnenie dní obradného očisťovania, až bola za jedného každého z nich donesená obeť.

²⁶Then Paul, having taken the men, on the following day, with them having purified himself, was entering into the temple, announcing the fulfilment of the days of the purification, till the offering was offered for each one of them.

²⁷A keď sa už malo dokončiť tých sedem dní, uvideli ho v chráme Židia z Ázie a vzbúrili všetok ľud a položili na neho ruky

²⁷And, as the seven days were about to be fully ended, the Jews from Asia having beheld him in the temple, were stirring up all the multitude, and they laid hands upon him,

²⁸a kričali: Mužovia Izraeliti, pomôžte! Toto je ten človek, ktorý všetkých všade učí proti izraelskému ľudu, proti zákonu a proti tomuto miestu, ba ešte aj Grékov voviedol do chrámu a poškvrnil toto sväté miesto.

²⁸crying out, `Men, Israelites, help! this is the man who, against the people, and the law, and this place, all everywhere is teaching; and further, also, Greeks he brought into the temple, and hath defiled this holy place;`

²⁹Videli s ním totiž predtým v meste efezského Trofima, o ktorom sa domnievali, že ho Pavel voviedol do chrámu.

²⁹for they had seen before Trophimus, the Ephesian, in the city with him, whom they were supposing that Paul brought into the temple.

³⁰A pohlo sa celé mesto, a sbehol sa ľud, a pochytiac Pavla vliekli ho von z chrámu a hneď zamkli dvere.

³⁰All the city also was moved and there was a running together of the people, and having laid hold on Paul, they were drawing him out of the temple, and immediately were the doors shut,

³¹A kým ho hľadali zabiť, prišla hore tisícnikovi pluku zpráva, že sa vzbúril celý Jeruzalem.

³¹and they seeking to kill him, a rumour came to the chief captain of the band that all Jerusalem hath been thrown into confusion,

³²A on hneď pojal vojakov a stotníkov a sbehol na nich. A oni, keď videli tisícnika a vojakov, prestali biť Pavla.

³²who, at once, having taken soldiers and centurions, ran down upon them, and they having seen the chief captain and the soldiers, did leave off beating Paul.

³³Vtedy sa priblížil tisícnik, pochytil ho a rozkázal poviazať ho dvoma reťazami a vypytoval sa, kto je a čo urobil?

³³Then the chief captain, having come nigh, took him, and commanded [him] to be bound with two chains, and was inquiring who he may be, and what it is he hath been doing,

³⁴Ale jedni jedno a druhí druhé čosi kričali v zástupe. A keď pre veľký nepokoj nemohol zvedieť istotu, dal povel odviesť ho do tábora.

³⁴and some were crying out one thing, and some another, among the multitude, and not being able to know the certainty because of the tumult, he commanded him to be carried to the castle,

³⁵A keď prišiel na schody, prihodilo sa, že ho museli vojaci niesť pre násilie zástupu,

³⁵and when he came upon the steps, it happened he was borne by the soldiers, because of the violence of the multitude,

³⁶lebo išlo za ním celé to množstvo ľudu, a kričali: Zabi ho!

³⁶for the crowd of the people was following after, crying, `Away with him.`

³⁷A keď už mal byť Pavel vovedený do tábora, povedal tisícnikovi: Či ti smiem niečo povedať? A on povedal: Vieš grécky?

³⁷And Paul being about to be led into the castle, saith to the chief captain, `Is it permitted to me to say anything unto thee?` and he said, `Greek dost thou know?

³⁸Teda si ty nie ten Egypťan, ktorý nedávno pobúril a vyviedol na púšť tie štyri tisíce mužov zbojníkov?

³⁸art not thou, then, the Egyptian who before these days made an uprising, and did lead into the desert the four thousand men of the assassins?`

³⁹Na to riekol Pavel: Ja som človek Žid z Tarzu, občan nie bezvýznamného mesta Cilície, ale ťa prosím, dovoľ mi prehovoriť k ľudu.

³⁹And Paul said, `I, indeed, am a man, a Jew, of Tarsus of Cilicia, of no mean city a citizen; and I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people.`

⁴⁰A keď dovolil, Pavel stojac na schodoch pokynul rukou ľudu. A keď nastalo veľké ticho, prehovoril k nim hebrejským nárečím a povedal:

⁴⁰And he having given him leave, Paul having stood upon the stairs, did beckon with the hand to the people, and there having been a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew dialect, saying:
