Atti degli Apostoli 7

NOVA VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Dixit autem princeps sacerdo tum: “ Si haec ita se habent? ”.	1 Then said the high priest, Are these things so?
2 Quiait: “ Viri fratres et patres, audite. Deus gloriae apparuit patri nostroAbraham, cum esset in Mesopotamia, priusquam moraretur in Charran,	2 And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran,
3 et dixit adillum: “Exi de terra tua et de cognatione tua et veni in terram, quam tibimonstravero”.	3 And said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.
4 Tunc egressus de terra Chaldaeorum habitavit in Charran. Etinde, postquam mortuus est pater eius, transtulit illum in terram istam, in quanunc vos habitatis;	4 Then came he out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell.
5 et non dedit illi hereditatem in ea nec passum pedis etrepromisit dare illi eam in possessionem et semini eius post ipsum, cum nonhaberet filium.	5 And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.
6 Locutus est autem sic Deus: “Erit semen eius accola in terraaliena, et servituti eos subicient et male tractabunt annis quadringentis;	6 And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years.
7 etgentem, cui servierint, iudicabo ego, dixit Deus; et post haec exibunt etdeservient mihi in loco isto”.	7 And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
8 Et dedit illi testamentum circumcisionis; etsic genuit Isaac et circumcidit eum die octava, et Isaac Iacob, et Iacobduodecim patriarchas.	8 And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs.
9 Et patriarchae aemulantes Ioseph vendiderunt inAegyptum; et erat Deus cum eo	9 And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,
10 et eripuit eum ex omnibus tribulationibus eiuset dedit ei gratiam et sapientiam in conspectu pharaonis regis Aegypti; etconstituit eum praepositum super Aegyptum et super omnem domum suam.	10 And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
11 Venitautem fames in universam Aegyptum et Chanaan et tribulatio magna, et noninveniebant cibos patres nostri.	11 Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.
12 Cum audisset autem Iacob esse frumentum inAegypto, misit patres nostros primum;	12 But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.
13 et in secundo cognitus est Ioseph afratribus suis, et manifestatum est pharaoni genus Ioseph.	13 And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh.
14 Mittens autemIoseph accersivit Iacob patrem suum et omnem cognationem in animabus septuagintaquinque;	14 Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to him, and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls.
15 et descendit Iacob in Aegyptum. Et defunctus est ipse et patresnostri;	15 So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,
16 et translati sunt in Sichem et positi sunt in sepulcro, quod emitAbraham pretio argenti a filiis Hemmor in Sichem.	16 And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Sychem.
17 Cum appropinquaret autem tempus repromissionis, quam confessus erat DeusAbrahae, crevit populus et multiplicatus est in Aegypto,	17 But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
18 quoadusque surrexitrex alius super Aegypto, qui non sciebat Ioseph.	18 Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph.
19 Hic circumveniens genusnostrum, afflixit patres, ut exponerent infantes suos, ne vivi servarentur.	19 The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.
20 Eodem tempore natus est Moyses et erat formosus coram Deo; qui nutritus esttribus mensibus in domo patris.	20 In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months:
21 Exposito autem illo, sustulit eum filiapharaonis et enutrivit eum sibi in filium;	21 And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
22 et eruditus est Moyses in omnisapientia Aegyptiorum; et erat potens in verbis et in operibus suis.	22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.
23 Cumautem impleretur ei quadraginta annorum tempus, ascendit in cor eius, utvisitaret fratres suos filios Israel.	23 And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
24 Et cum vidisset quendam iniuriampatientem, vindicavit et fecit ultionem ei, qui opprimebatur, percusso Aegyptio.	24 And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:
25 Existimabat autem intellegere fratres, quoniam Deus per manum ipsius daretsalutem illis; at illi non intellexerunt.	25 For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.
26 Atque sequenti die apparuit illislitigantibus et reconciliabat eos in pacem dicens: “Viri, fratres estis; utquid nocetis alterutrum?”.	26 And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?
27 Qui autem iniuriam faciebat proximo, reppuliteum dicens: “Quis te constituit principem et iudicem super nos?	27 But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
28 Numquidinterficere me tu vis, quemadmodum interfecisti heri Aegyptium?”.	28 Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?
29 Fugitautem Moyses propter verbum istud; et factus est advena in terra Madian, ubigeneravit filios duos.	29 Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.
30 Et expletis annis quadraginta, apparuit illi in deserto montis Sinai angelusin ignis flamma rubi.	30 And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Moyses autem videns admirabatur visum; accedente autemillo, ut consideraret, facta est vox Domini:	31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the Lord came unto him,
32 “Ego Deus patrum tuorum, DeusAbraham et Isaac et Iacob”. Tremefactus autem Moyses non audebat considerare.	32 Saying, I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abrham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold.
33 Dixit autem illi Dominus: “Solve calceamentum pedum tuorum; locus enim, inquo stas, terra sancta est.	33 Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.
34 Videns vidi afflictionem populi mei, qui est inAegypto, et gemitum eorum audivi et descendi liberare eos; et nunc veni, mittamte in Aegyptum”.	34 I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.
35 Hunc Moysen, quem negaverunt dicentes: “Quis te constituit principem etiudicem?”, hunc Deus et principem et redemptorem misit cum manu angeli, quiapparuit illi in rubo.	35 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush.
36 Hic eduxit illos faciens prodigia et signa in terraAegypti et in Rubro mari et in deserto annis quadraginta.	36 He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
37 Hic est Moyses, quidixit filiis Israel: “Prophetam vobis suscitabit Deus de fratribus vestristamquam me”.	37 This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.
38 Hic est qui fuit in ecclesia in solitudine cum angelo, quiloquebatur ei in monte Sinai, et cum patribus nostris; qui accepit verba vivadare nobis;	38 This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:
39 cui noluerunt oboedire patres nostri, sed reppulerunt et aversisunt in cordibus suis in Aegyptum	39 To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,
40 dicentes ad Aaron: “Fac nobis deos, quipraecedant nos; Moyses enim hic, qui eduxit nos de terra Aegypti, nescimus quidfactum sit ei”.	40 Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
41 Et vitulum fecerunt in illis diebus et obtulerunt hostiamsimulacro et laetabantur in operibus manuum suarum.	41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Convertit autem Deus ettradidit eos servire militiae caeli, sicut scriptum est in libro Prophetarum: “Numquid victimas et hostias obtulistis mihi annis quadraginta in deserto, domus Israel?	42 Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?
43 Et suscepistis tabernaculum Moloch et sidus dei vestri Rhaephan, figuras, quas fecistis ad adorandum eas. Et transferam vos trans Babylonem”.	43 Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
44 Tabernaculum testimonii erat patribus nostris in deserto, sicut disposuit,qui loquebatur ad Moysen, ut faceret illud secundum formam, quam viderat;	44 Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.
45 quod et induxerunt suscipientes patres nostri cum Iesu in possessionem gentium,quas expulit Deus a facie patrum nostrorum, usque in diebus David,	45 Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
46 quiinvenit gratiam ante Deum et petiit, ut inveniret tabernaculum domui Iacob.	46 Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
47 Salomon autem aedificavit illi domum.	47 But Solomon built him an house.
48 Sed non Altissimus in manufactishabitat, sicut propheta dicit:	48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
49 “Caelum mihi thronus est, terra autem scabellum pedum meorum. Quam domum aedificabitis mihi, dicit Dominus, aut quis locus requietionis meae?	49 Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?
50 Nonne manus mea fecit haec omnia?”.	50 Hath not my hand made all these things?
51 Duri cervice et incircumcisi cordibus et auribus, vos semper Spiritui Sanctoresistitis; sicut patres vestri, et vos.	51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.
52 Quem prophetarum non sunt persecutipatres vestri? Et occiderunt eos, qui praenuntiabant de adventu Iusti, cuius vosnunc proditores et homicidae fuistis,	52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:
53 qui accepistis legem in dispositionibusangelorum et non custodistis ”.	53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.
54 Audientes autem haec, dissecabantur cordibus suis et stridebant dentibus ineum.	54 When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.
55 Cum autem esset plenus Spiritu Sancto, intendens in caelum vidit gloriamDei et Iesum stantem a dextris Dei	55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
56 et ait: “ Ecce video caelos apertos etFilium hominis a dextris stantem Dei ”.	56 And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.
57 Exclamantes autem voce magnacontinuerunt aures suas et impetum fecerunt unanimiter in eum	57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,
58 et eicientesextra civitatem lapidabant. Et testes deposuerunt vestimenta sua secus pedesadulescentis, qui vocabatur Saulus.	58 And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.
59 Et lapidabant Stephanum invocantem etdicentem: “ Domine Iesu, suscipe spiritum meum ”.	59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
60 Positis autem genibusclamavit voce magna: “ Domine, ne statuas illis hoc peccatum ”; et cum hocdixisset, obdormivit.	60 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
