WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Дође пак у Дерву и у Листру, и гле, онде беше неки ученик, по имену Тимотије, син неке жене Јеврејке која вероваше, а оца Грка;
1 DESPUÉS llegó á Derbe, y á Listra: y he aquí, estaba allí un discípulo llamado Timoteo, hijo de una mujer Judía fiel, mas de padre Griego.
1 He came to Derbe and Lystra; and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess who believed, but his father was a Greek.
2 за њега добро сведочаху браћа која беху у Листри и у Иконији.
2 De éste daban buen testimonio los hermanos que estaban en Listra y en Iconio.
2 The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium gave a good testimony about him.
3 Овог намисли Павле да узме са собом; и узе га, и обреза Јевреја ради који беху у оним местима: јер сви знаху оца његовог да беше Грк.
3 Este quiso Pablo que fuese con él; y tomándole, le circuncidó por causa de los Judíos que estaban en aquellos lugares; porque todos sabían que su padre era Griego.
3 Paul wanted to have him go out with him, and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
4 И кад пролажаху по градовима, предаваше им да држе уредбе које уредише апостоли и старешине у Јерусалиму.
4 Y como pasaban por las ciudades, les daban que guardasen los decretos que habían sido determinados por los apóstoles y los ancianos que estaban en Jerusalem.
4 As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered the decrees to them to keep which had been ordained by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.
5 А цркве се утврђиваху у вери, и сваки дан биваше их више.
5 Así que, las iglesias eran confirmadas en fe, y eran aumentadas en número cada día.
5 So the assemblies were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.
6 А кад прођоше Фригију и галатијску земљу, забрани им Дух Свети говорити реч у Азији.
6 Y pasando á Phrygia y la provincia de Galacia, les fué prohibido por el Espíritu Santo hablar la palabra en Asia.
6 When they had gone through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.
7 А кад дођоше у Мисију хтеше да иду у Витинију, и Дух не даде.
7 Y como vinieron á Misia, tentaron de ir á Bithynia; mas el Espíritu no les dejó.
7 When they had come opposite Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit didn’t allow them.
8 А кад прођоше Мисију, сиђоше у Троаду.
8 Y pasando á Misia, descendieron á Troas.
8 Passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
9 И Павлу се јави утвара ноћу: беше један човек из Македоније, и стајаше молећи га и говорећи: Дођи у Македонију и помози нам.
9 Y fué mostrada á Pablo de noche una visión: Un varón Macedonio se puso delante, rogándole, y diciendo: Pasa á Macedonia, y ayúdanos.
9 A vision appeared to Paul in the night. There was a man of Macedonia standing, begging him and saying, “Come over into Macedonia and help us.”
10 А кад виде утвару, одмах гледасмо да изиђемо у Македонију, дознавши да нас Господ позва да им проповедамо јеванђеље.
10 Y como vió la visión, luego procuramos partir á Macedonia, dando por cierto que Dios nos llamaba para que les anunciásemos el evangelio.
10 When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the Good News to them.
11 А кад се одвезосмо из Троаде, дођосмо у Самотрак, и сутрадан у Неапољ,
11 Partidos pues de Troas, vinimos camino derecho á Samotracia, y el día siguiente á Neápolis;
11 Setting sail therefore from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis;
12 а оданде у Филибу, које је први град земље Македоније, насеље римско; и у оном граду остасмо неколико дана.
12 Y de allí á Filipos, que es la primera ciudad de la parte de Macedonia, [y] una colonia; y estuvimos en aquella ciudad algunos días.
12 and from there to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the foremost of the district, a Roman colony. We were staying some days in this city.
13 А у дан суботни изиђосмо из града к води где беше богомоља; и седавши говорисмо к женама које се беху сабрале.
13 Y un día de sábado salimos de la puerta junto al río, donde solía ser la oración; y sentándonos, hablamos á las mujeres que se habían juntado.
13 On the Sabbath day we went outside of the city by a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we sat down and spoke to the women who had come together.
14 И једна богобојазна жена, по имену Лидија, из града тијатирског, која продаваше скерлет, слушаше: и Господ отвори срце њено да пази на речи Павлове.
14 Entonces una mujer llamada Lidia, que vendía púrpura en la ciudad de Tiatira, temerosa de Dios, estaba oyendo; el corazón de la cual abrió el Señor para que estuviese atenta á lo que Pablo decía.
14 A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshiped God, heard us. The Lord opened her heart to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul.
15 А кад се крсти она и кућа њена, мољаше нас говорећи: Ако мислите да ја верујем Господа, уђите у моју кућу и живите. И натера нас.
15 Y cuando fué bautizada, y su familia, nos rogó, diciendo: Si habéis juzgado que yo sea fiel al Señor, entrad en mi casa, y posad: y constriñónos.
15 When she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay.” So she persuaded us.
16 А догоди се кад иђасмо на молитву да нас срете једна робиња која имаше дух погађачки и врачајући доношаше велики добитак својим господарима.
16 Y aconteció, que yendo nosotros á la oración, una muchacha que tenía espíritu pitónico, nos salió al encuentro, la cual daba grande ganancia á sus amos adivinando.
16 As we were going to prayer, a certain girl having a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by fortune telling.
17 Ова пође за Павлом и за нама, и викаше говорећи: Ови су људи слуге Бога Највишег, који јављају нама пут спасења.
17 Esta, siguiendo á Pablo y á nosotros, daba voces, diciendo: Estos hombres son siervos del Dios Alto, los cuales os anuncian el camino de salud.
17 Following Paul and us, she cried out, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us a way of salvation!”
18 И овако чињаше много дана. А кад се Павлу досади, окрену се и рече духу: Заповедам ти именом Исуса Христа, изиђи из ње. И изиђе у тај час.
18 Y esto hacía por muchos días; mas desagradando á Pablo, se volvió y dijo al espíritu: Te mando en el nombre de Jesucristo, que salgas de ella. Y salió en la misma hora.
18 She was doing this for many days. But Paul, becoming greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!” It came out that very hour.
19 А кад видеше њени господари да изиђе нада њиховог добитка, узеше Павла и Силу и одвукоше их на пазар ка кнезовима.
19 Y viendo sus amos que había salido la esperanza de su ganancia, prendieron á Pablo y á Silas, y los trajeron al foro, al magistrado;
19 But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers.
20 И доведавши их к војводама, рекоше: Ови су људи Јевреји, и муте по нашем граду,
20 Y presentándolos á los magistrados, dijeron: Estos hombres, siendo Judíos, alborotan nuestra ciudad,
20 When they had brought them to the magistrates, they said, “These men, being Jews, are agitating our city
21 и проповедају обичаје које нама не ваља примати ни творити, јер смо Римљани.
21 Y predican ritos, los cuales no nos es lícito recibir ni hacer, pues somos Romanos.
21 and advocate customs which it is not lawful for us to accept or to observe, being Romans.”
22 И слеже се народ на њих, и војводе издреше им хаљине, и заповедише да их шибају.
22 Y agolpóse el pueblo contra ellos: y los magistrados rompiéndoles sus ropas, les mandaron azotar con varas.
22 The multitude rose up together against them and the magistrates tore their clothes from them, then commanded them to be beaten with rods.
23 И пошто их здраво избише бацише их у тамницу, и заповедише тамничару да их добро чува.
23 Y después que los hubieron herido de muchos azotes, los echaron en la cárcel, mandando al carcelero que los guardase con diligencia:
23 When they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely.
24 Примивши такву заповест он их баци у најдоњу тамницу и ноге им метну у кладе.
24 El cual, recibido este mandamiento, los metió en la cárcel de más adentro; y les apretó los pies en el cepo.
24 Having received such a command, he threw them into the inner prison and secured their feet in the stocks.
25 А у поноћи беху Павле и Сила на молитви и хваљаху Бога; а сужњи их слушаху.
25 Mas á media noche, orando Pablo y Silas, cantaban himnos á Dios: y los que estaban presos los oían.
25 But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
26 А уједанпут тако се врло затресе земља да се помести темељ тамнички; и одмах се отворише сва врата и свима спадоше окови.
26 Entonces fué hecho de repente un gran terremoto, de tal manera que los cimientos de la cárcel se movían; y luego todas las puertas se abrieron, y las prisiones de todos se soltaron.
26 Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s bonds were loosened.
27 А кад се пробуди тамничар и виде отворена врата тамничка, извади нож и хтеде да се убије, мислећи да су побегли сужњи.
27 Y despertado el carcelero, como vió abiertas las puertas de la cárcel, sacando la espada se quería matar, pensando que los presos se habían huído.
27 The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
28 А Павле повика здраво говорећи: Не чини себи зло никакво, јер смо ми сви овде.
28 Mas Pablo clamó á gran voz, diciendo: No te hagas ningún mal; que todos estamos aquí.
28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, “Don’t harm yourself, for we are all here!”
29 А он заискавши свећу улете и дрхћући припаде к Павлу и Сили;
29 El entonces pidiendo luz, entró dentro, y temblando, derribóse á los pies de Pablo y de Silas;
29 He called for lights, sprang in, fell down trembling before Paul and Silas,
30 и изведавши их напоље рече: Господо! Шта ми треба чинити да се спасем?
30 Y sacándolos fuera, les dice: Señores, ¿qué es menester que yo haga para ser salvo?
30 brought them out, and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
31 А они рекоше: Веруј Господа Исуса Христа и спашћеш се ти и сав дом твој.
31 Y ellos dijeron: Cree en el Señor Jesucristo, y serás salvo tú, y tu casa.
31 They said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
32 И казаше му реч Господњу, и свима који су у дому његовом.
32 Y le hablaron la palabra del Señor, y á todos los que estaban en su casa.
32 They spoke the word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his house.
33 И узе их у онај сат ноћи и опра им ране; и крсти се он и сви његови одмах.
33 Y tomándolos en aquella misma hora de la noche, les lavó los azotes; y se bautizó luego él, y todos los suyos.
33 He took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes, and was immediately baptized, he and all his household.
34 И уведавши их у свој дом постави трпезу, и радоваше се са свим домом својим што верова Бога.
34 Y llevándolos á su casa, les puso la mesa: y se gozó de que con toda su casa había creído á Dios.
34 He brought them up into his house and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly with all his household, having believed in God.
35 А кад би дан, послаше војводе пандуре говорећи: Пустите ова два човека.
35 Y como fué de día, los magistrados enviaron los alguaciles, diciendo: Deja ir á aquellos hombres.
35 But when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, “Let those men go.”
36 А тамничар каза речи ове Павлу: Послаше војводе да се пустите; сад дакле изиђите и идите с миром.
36 Y el carcelero hizo saber estas palabras á Pablo: Los magistrados han enviado [á decir] que seáis sueltos: así que ahora salid, é id en paz.
36 The jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore come out and go in peace.”
37 А Павле рече њима: Избивши нас пред народом без суда, људе Римљане, бацише у тамницу: и сад хоће да нас пусте? Није тако, него сами нека дођу и изведу нас.
37 Entonces Pablo les dijo: Azotados públicamente sin ser condenados, siendo hombres Romanos, nos echaron en la cárcel; y ¿ahora nos echan encubiertamente? No, de cierto, sino vengan ellos y sáquennos.
37 But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us publicly without a trial, men who are Romans, and have cast us into prison! Do they now release us secretly? No, most certainly, but let them come themselves and bring us out!”
38 А пандури казаше војводама ове речи; и уплашише се кад чуше да су Римљани;
38 Y los alguaciles volvieron á decir á los magistrados estas palabras: y tuvieron miedo, oído que eran Romanos.
38 The sergeants reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Romans,
39 и дошавши умолише их, и изведоше молећи да изиђу из града.
39 Y viniendo, les rogaron; y sacándolos, les pidieron que se saliesen de la ciudad.
39 and they came and begged them. When they had brought them out, they asked them to depart from the city.
40 А кад изиђоше из тамнице, дођоше к Лидији, и видевши браћу утешише их, и отидоше.
40 Entonces salidos de la cárcel, entraron en [casa de] Lidia; y habiendo visto á los hermanos, los consolaron, y se salieron.
40 They went out of the prison and entered into Lydia’s house. When they had seen the brothers, they encouraged them, then departed.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
was thought likely") to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither. And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul." See again Paul judaizing.

… sailing from Troas, we directed our ship's course towards Samothracia." And then he carefully indicates all the rest of their journey as far as Philippi, and how they delivered their first address: "for, sitting down," he says, "we spake unto the women who had assembled;" and certain believed, even a great many.
Hear, for instance, the seller of purple saying, "If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come in, and abide with me." Hear the women, who went about with the apostles, having taken unto themselves manly courage, Priscilla, Persis, and the rest; from whom our present women are as far removed as our men from their men.
