Actus Apostolorum 11

VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Audierunt autem Apostoli et fratres qui erant in Judæa, quoniam et gentes receperunt verbum Dei.	1 And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
2 Cum autem ascendisset Petrus Jerosolymam, disceptabant adversus illum qui erant ex circumcisione,	2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,
3 dicentes : Quare introisti ad viros præputium habentes, et manducasti cum illis ?	3 Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.
4 Incipiens autem Petrus exponebat illis ordinem, dicens :	4 But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order unto them, saying,
5 Ego eram in civitate Joppe orans, et vidi in excessu mentis visionem, descendens vas quoddam velut linteum magnum quatuor initiis summitti de cælo, et venit usque ad me.	5 I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me:
6 In quod intuens considerabam, et vidi quadrupedia terræ, et bestias, et reptilia, et volatilia cæli.	6 Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
7 Audivi autem et vocem dicentem mihi : Surge, Petre : occide, et manduca.	7 And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.
8 Dixi autem : Nequaquam Domine : quia commune aut immundum numquam introivit in os meum.	8 But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth.
9 Respondit autem vox secundo de cælo : Quæ Deus mundavit, tu ne commune dixeris.	9 But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
10 Hoc autem factum est per ter : et recepta sunt omnia rursum in cælum.	10 And this was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven.
11 Et ecce viri tres confestim astiterunt in domo in qua eram, missi a Cæsarea ad me.	11 And, behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Caesarea unto me.
12 Dixit autem Spiritus mihi ut irem cum illis, nihil hæsitans. Venerunt autem mecum et sex fratres isti, et ingressi sumus in domum viri.	12 And the spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house:
13 Narravit autem nobis quomodo vidisset angelum in domo sua, stantem et dicentem sibi : Mitte in Joppen, et accersi Simonem qui cognominatur Petrus,	13 And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter;
14 qui loquetur tibi verba in quibus salvus eris tu, et universa domus tua.	14 Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved.
15 Cum autem cœpissem loqui, cecidit Spiritus Sanctus super eos, sicut et in nos in initio.	15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning.
16 Recordatus sum autem verbi Domini, sicut dicebat : Joannes quidem baptizavit aqua, vos autem baptizabimini Spiritu Sancto.	16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
17 Si ergo eamdem gratiam dedit illis Deus, sicut et nobis qui credidimus in Dominum Jesum Christum : ego quis eram, qui possem prohibere Deum ?	17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?
18 His auditis, tacuerunt : et glorificaverunt Deum, dicentes : Ergo et gentibus pœnitentiam dedit Deus ad vitam.	18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.
19 Et illi quidem qui dispersi fuerant a tribulatione quæ facta fuerat sub Stephano, perambulaverunt usque Phœnicen, et Cyprum, et Antiochiam, nemini loquentes verbum, nisi solis Judæis.	19 Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.
20 Erant autem quidam ex eis viri Cyprii et Cyrenæi, qui cum introissent Antiochiam, loquebantur et ad Græcos, annuntiantes Dominum Jesum.	20 And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus.
21 Et erat manus Domini cum eis : multusque numerus credentium conversus est ad Dominum.	21 And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord.
22 Pervenit autem sermo ad aures ecclesiæ quæ erat Jerosolymis super istis : et miserunt Barnabam usque ad Antiochiam.	22 Then tidings of these things came unto the ears of the church which was in Jerusalem: and they sent forth Barnabas, that he should go as far as Antioch.
23 Qui cum pervenisset, et vidisset gratiam Dei, gavisus est : et hortabatur omnes in proposito cordis permanere in Domino :	23 Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would cleave unto the Lord.
24 quia erat vir bonus, et plenus Spiritu Sancto, et fide. Et apposita est multa turba Domino.	24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.
25 Profectus est autem Barnabas Tarsum, ut quæreret Saulum : quem cum invenisset, perduxit Antiochiam.	25 Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul:
26 Et annum totum conversati sunt ibi in ecclesia : et docuerunt turbam multam, ita ut cognominarentur primum Antiochiæ discipuli, christiani.	26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
27 In his autem diebus supervenerunt ab Jerosolymis prophetæ Antiochiam :	27 And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch.
28 et surgens unus ex eis nomine Agabus, significabat per spiritum famem magnam futuram in universo orbe terrarum, quæ facta est sub Claudio.	28 And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar.
29 Discipuli autem, prout quis habebat, proposuerunt singuli in ministerium mittere habitantibus in Judæa fratribus :	29 Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judaea:
30 quod et fecerunt, mittentes ad seniores per manus Barnabæ et Sauli.	30 Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
