\subsection{Acts 11}
|
|
\VS{1} So the apostles and the brothers being throughout Judea hear that the
|
|
nations also received the word of God.
|
|
\VS{2} So when Peter went up to
|
|
Jerusalem, those of the circumcision disputed with him,
|
|
\VS{3} saying that:
|
|
You went in with men having uncircumcision and you ate with them.
|
|
\VS{4} So having begun Peter was explaining to them point by point saying:
|
|
\VS{5} I was in the city [of] Joppa praying, and I saw in [a] trance [a] vision, a certain
|
|
[thing] coming down like [a] great linen sheet with [the] four corners being let down from heaven, and it came until me,
|
|
\VS{6} to which, having looked intently, I was
|
|
considering [it], and I saw the four-footed [things] of the earth and the wild beasts and the reptiles and the birds of heaven.
|
|
\VS{7} Now I also heard [a] voice
|
|
saying to me: Having arisen, Peter, kill and eat.
|
|
\VS{8} So I said: By no means, Lord, for [the] common\footnote{or ``impure''}
|
|
or unclean has never entered into my mouth.
|
|
\VS{9} But [a] voice from heaven answered [a] second
|
|
[time]: What God has cleansed do not be considering common\footnote{or
|
|
``impure''}.
|
|
\VS{10} Now this came to pass [a] third [time], and everything was again
|
|
drawn up into heaven.
|
|
\VS{11} And behold immediately three men stood outside
|
|
the house in which I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.
|
|
\VS{12} Now
|
|
the spirit told me to go with them not having hesitated. So they and these
|
|
six brothers went with me, and we went into the house of [this] man.
|
|
\VS{13} So he
|
|
reported to us how he saw the angel in his house having stood and having
|
|
said: Send to Joppa and summon Simon the [one] called Peter,
|
|
\VS{14} who will
|
|
speak words to you by which you and all your house will be saved.
|
|
\VS{15} Now when I began to be speaking, the Holy Spirit fell upon them as also upon
|
|
us in the beginning.
|
|
\VS{16} Now I was minded of the words of the Lord, as
|
|
he was saying: John on the one hand baptized in\footnote{or ``with''} water,
|
|
but you will be baptized in\footnote{or ``with''} Holy Spirit.
|
|
\VS{17} If
|
|
therefore God gave to them the equal gift as also to us, to [those] having believed
|
|
upon the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I able to hinder God?
|
|
\VS{18} So having
|
|
heard these [things] they were quiet, and glorified God saying: Therefore has God
|
|
given the repentance to zoe-life\fnZoe{} to the nations\footnote{i.e. the Gentiles}
|
|
also.
|
|
|
|
\VS{19} Indeed therefore those having been scattered from the distress
|
|
having come to pass upon Stephen were going through to Phoenicia and Cypris
|
|
and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews.
|
|
\VS{20} Now there were
|
|
some Cyprian and Cyrenian men from among them, who having come to Antioch
|
|
were speaking to the Greeks also, good-newsing the Lord Jesus.
|
|
\VS{21} And
|
|
[the] hand of [the] Lord was with them, and [a] great number having believed turned to
|
|
the Lord.
|
|
\VS{22} Now the word was heard to the ears of the assembly\fnEkklhsia{} being in
|
|
Jerusalem concerning them, and they sent out Barnabbas until Antioch,
|
|
\VS{23} who having arrived and having seen the grace of the Lord, he
|
|
rejoiced, and he was entreating all in the purpose of [their] heart to remain with
|
|
the Lord,
|
|
\VS{24} because he was [a] good man and full of the Holy Spirit and
|
|
faith. And [a] large crowd was added to the Lord.
|
|
\VS{25} Now he went out to Tarsus to seek Saul,
|
|
\VS{26} and having found [him] he brought [him] to Antioch. Now
|
|
it came to pass to them indeed they were [a] whole year gathered in the assembly\fnEkklhsia{}
|
|
and they taught [a] great crowd, and in Antioch the disciples were first named
|
|
Christians.
|
|
|
|
\VS{27} Now in these days prophets came down from Jerusalem.
|
|
\VS{28} And one
|
|
of them, by name Agabos, having stood, he foretold through the spirit [that a] great
|
|
famine was [about] to be upon the whole inhabited world, which came to pass under
|
|
Claudius.
|
|
\VS{29} Now from the disciples, just as anyone was having plenty, each of them
|
|
determined to send for service to the brothers dwelling in Judea,
|
|
\VS{30} which they also did, having sent [it] to the elders through [the] hand of Barnabbas and Saul.
