Acts of the Apostles 11

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	NOVA VULGATA
1 Now the apostles and the brethren who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.	1 Audierunt autem apostoli et fratres, qui erant in Iudaea, quoniam etgentes receperunt verbum Dei.
2 So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcision party criticized him,	2 Cum ascendisset autem Petrus in Ierusalem,disceptabant adversus illum, qui erant ex circumcisione,
3 saying, "Why did you go to uncircumcised men and eat with them?"	3 dicentes: “Introisti ad viros praeputium habentes et manducasti cum illis! ”.
4 But Peter began and explained to them in order:	4 Incipiens autem Petrus exponebat illis ex ordine dicens:
5 "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, something descending, like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came down to me.	5 “ Ego eram incivitate Ioppe orans et vidi in excessu mentis visionem, descendens vas quoddamvelut linteum magnum quattuor initiis submitti de caelo et venit usque ad me;
6 Looking at it closely I observed animals and beasts of prey and reptiles and birds of the air.	6 in quod intuens considerabam et vidi quadrupedia terrae et bestias et reptiliaet volatilia caeli.
7 And I heard a voice saying to me, 'Rise, Peter; kill and eat.'	7 Audivi autem et vocem dicentem mihi: “Surgens, Petre,occide et manduca!”.
8 But I said, 'No, Lord; for nothing common or unclean has ever entered my mouth.'	8 Dixi autem: Nequaquam, Domine, quia commune autimmundum numquam introivit in os meum.
9 But the voice answered a second time from heaven, 'What God has cleansed you must not call common.'	9 Respondit autem vox secundo de caelo:“Quae Deus mundavit, tu ne commune dixeris”.
10 This happened three times, and all was drawn up again into heaven.	10 Hoc autem factum est perter, et retracta sunt rursum omnia in caelum.
11 At that very moment three men arrived at the house in which we were, sent to me from Caesarea.	11 Et ecce confestim tres viriastiterunt in domo, in qua eramus, missi a Caesarea ad me.
12 And the Spirit told me to go with them, making no distinction. These six brethren also accompanied me, and we entered the man's house.	12 Dixit autemSpiritus mihi, ut irem cum illis nihil haesitans. Venerunt autem mecum et sexfratres isti, et ingressi sumus in domum viri.
13 And he told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house and saying, 'Send to Joppa and bring Simon called Peter;	13 Narravit autem nobis quomodovidisset angelum ad domum suam stantem et dicentem: “Mitte in Ioppen etaccersi Simonem, qui cognominatur Petrus,
14 he will declare to you a message by which you will be saved, you and all your household.'	14 qui loquetur tibi verba, in quibussalvus eris tu et universa domus tua”.
15 As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them just as on us at the beginning.	15 Cum autem coepissem loqui, deciditSpiritus Sanctus super eos, sicut et super nos in initio.
16 And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, 'John baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'	16 Recordatus sumautem verbi Domini, sicut dicebat: “Ioannes quidem baptizavit aqua, vos autembaptizabimini in Spiritu Sancto”.
17 If then God gave the same gift to them as he gave to us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?"	17 Si ergo aequale donum dedit illis Deussicut et nobis, qui credidimus in Dominum Iesum Christum, ego quis eram quipossem prohibere Deum? ”.
18 When they heard this they were silenced. And they glorified God, saying, "Then to the Gentiles also God has granted repentance unto life."	18 His autem auditis, acquieverunt et glorificaverunt Deum dicentes: “ Ergo etgentibus Deus paenitentiam ad vitam dedit ”.
19 Now those who were scattered because of the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to none except Jews.	19 Et illi quidem, qui dispersi fuerant a tribulatione, quae facta fuerat subStephano, perambulaverunt usque Phoenicen et Cyprum et Antiochiam, neminiloquentes verbum; nisi solis Iudaeis.
20 But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who on coming to Antioch spoke to the Greeks also, preaching the Lord Jesus.	20 Erant autem quidam ex eis viri Cypriiet Cyrenaei, qui, cum introissent Antiochiam, loquebantur et ad Graecosevangelizantes Dominum Iesum.
21 And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number that believed turned to the Lord.	21 Et erat manus Domini cum eis; multusque numeruscredentium conversus est ad Dominum.
22 News of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.	22 Auditus est autem sermo in auribus ecclesiae, quae erat in Ierusalem, superistis, et miserunt Barnabam usque Antiochiam;
23 When he came and saw the grace of God, he was glad; and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast purpose;	23 qui cum pervenisset et vidissetgratiam Dei, gavisus est et hortabatur omnes proposito cordis permanere inDomino,
24 for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a large company was added to the Lord.	24 quia erat vir bonus et plenus Spiritu Sancto et fide. Et apposita estturba multa Domino.
25 So Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul;	25 Profectus est autem Tarsum, ut quaereret Saulum;
26 and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church, and taught a large company of people; and in Antioch the disciples were for the first time called Christians.	26 quemcum invenisset, perduxit Antiochiam. Factum est autem eis, ut annum totumconversarentur in ecclesia et docerent turbam multam, et cognominarentur primumAntiochiae discipuli Christiani.
27 Now in these days prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.	27 In his autem diebus supervenerunt ab Hierosolymis prophetae Antiochiam;
28 And one of them named Agabus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine over all the world; and this took place in the days of Claudius.	28 etsurgens unus ex eis nomine Agabus significavit per Spiritum famem magnam futuramin universo orbe terrarum; quae facta est sub Claudio.
29 And the disciples determined, every one according to his ability, to send relief to the brethren who lived in Judea;	29 Discipuli autem, proutquis habebat, proposuerunt singuli eorum in ministerium mittere habitantibus inIudaea fratribus;
30 and they did so, sending it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.	30 quod et fecerunt, mittentes ad presbyteros per manumBarnabae et Sauli.
