1 Услышали Апостолы и братия, бывшие в Иудее, что и язычники приняли слово Божие.
1 Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
2 И когда Петр пришел в Иерусалим, обрезанные упрекали его,
2 When Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,
3 говоря: ты ходил к людям необрезанным и ел с ними.
3 saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”
4 Петр же начал пересказывать им по порядку, говоря:
4 But Peter began, and explained to them in order, saying,
5 в городе Иоппии я молился, и в исступлении видел видение: сходил некоторый сосуд, как бы большое полотно, за четыре угла спускаемое с неба, и спустилось ко мне.
5 “I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.
6 Я посмотрел в него и, рассматривая, увидел четвероногих земных, зверей, пресмыкающихся и птиц небесных.
6 When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky.
7 И услышал я голос, говорящий мне: встань, Петр, заколи и ешь.
7 I also heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter, kill and eat!’
8 Я же сказал: нет, Господи, ничего скверного или нечистого никогда не входило в уста мои.
8 But I said, ‘Not so, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.’
9 И отвечал мне голос вторично с неба: что Бог очистил, того ты не почитай нечистым.
9 But a voice answered me the second time out of heaven, ‘What God has cleansed, don’t you call unclean.’
10 Это было трижды, и опять поднялось все на небо.
10 This was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.
11 И вот, в тот самый час три человека стали перед домом, в котором я был, посланные из Кесарии ко мне.
11 Behold, immediately three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.
12 Дух сказал мне, чтобы я шел с ними, нимало не сомневаясь. Пошли со мною и сии шесть братьев, и мы пришли в дом того человека.
12 The Spirit told me to go with them without discriminating. These six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered into the man’s house.
13 Он рассказал нам, как он видел в доме своем Ангела (святого), который стал и сказал ему: пошли в Иоппию людей и призови Симона, называемого Петром;
13 He told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house and saying to him, ‘Send to Joppa and get Simon, who is called Peter,
14 он скажет тебе слова, которыми спасешься ты и весь дом твой.
14 who will speak to you words by which you will be saved, you and all your house.’
15 Когда же начал я говорить, сошел на них Дух Святый, как и на нас вначале.
15 As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as on us at the beginning.
16 Тогда вспомнил я слово Господа, как Он говорил: "Иоанн крестил водою, а вы будете крещены Духом Святым".
16 I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit.’
17 Итак, если Бог дал им такой же дар, как и нам, уверовавшим в Господа Иисуса Христа, то кто же я, чтобы мог воспрепятствовать Богу?
17 If then God gave to them the same gift as us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?”
18 Выслушав это, они успокоились и прославили Бога, говоря: видно, и язычникам дал Бог покаяние в жизнь.
18 When they heard these things, they held their peace and glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life!”
19 Между тем рассеявшиеся от гонения, бывшего после Стефана, прошли до Финикии и Кипра и Антиохии, никому не проповедуя слово, кроме Иудеев.
19 They therefore who were scattered abroad by the oppression that arose about Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except to Jews only.
20 Были же некоторые из них Кипряне и Киринейцы, которые, придя в Антиохию, говорили Еллинам, благовествуя Господа Иисуса.
20 But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the Lord Jesus.
21 И была рука Господня с ними, и великое число, уверовав, обратилось к Господу.
21 The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
22 Дошел слух о сем до церкви Иерусалимской, и поручили Варнаве идти в Антиохию.
22 The report concerning them came to the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem. They sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch,
23 Он, прибыв и увидев благодать Божию, возрадовался и убеждал всех держаться Господа искренним сердцем;
23 who, when he had come, and had seen the grace of God, was glad. He exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they should remain near to the Lord.
24 ибо он был муж добрый и исполненный Духа Святаго и веры. И приложилось довольно народа к Господу.
24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith, and many people were added to the Lord.
25 Потом Варнава пошел в Тарс искать Савла и, найдя его, привел в Антиохию.
25 Barnabas went out to Tarsus to look for Saul.
26 Целый год собирались они в церкви и учили немалое число людей, и ученики в Антиохии в первый раз стали называться Христианами.
26 When he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they were gathered together with the assembly, and taught many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
27 В те дни пришли из Иерусалима в Антиохию пророки.
27 Now in these days, prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28 И один из них, по имени Агав, встав, предвозвестил Духом, что по всей вселенной будет великий голод, который и был при кесаре Клавдии.
28 One of them named Agabus stood up and indicated by the Spirit that there should be a great famine all over the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius.
29 Тогда ученики положили, каждый по достатку своему, послать пособие братьям, живущим в Иудее,
29 As any of the disciples had plenty, each determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea;
30 что и сделали, послав собранное к пресвитерам через Варнаву и Савла.
30 which they also did, sending it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

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).
The persecution turned out to be no slight benefit as "to them that love God all things work together for good." (Rom. viii. 28.) If they had made it their express study how best to establish the Church, they would have done no other thing than this--they dispersed the teachers. Mark in what quarters the preaching was extended.

Then the disciples, every one according to his ability, determined to send relief to the elders for the brethren which dwelt in Judæa, which also they did by the hands of Barnabas and Saul."

And ye, when there is a question of precedence, claim to take place of the whole word, forasmuch as our city first crowned itself with the name of Christian; but in the competition of chastity, ye are not ashamed to be behind the rudest cities.

For it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians after the Lord's ascension, as we read in the Acts of the Apostles: and certain houses were afterwards called by the new names of hospices and monasteries; but the things themselves existed prior to their names, and are confirmed by religious truth, which also forms their defense against …

For although the disciples of Christ were not yet called by such a name,--because it was after His ascension, in Antioch, first that the disciples began to be called Christians, --yet the thing itself, that afterwards assumed such a name, already existed, those who were afterwards called Christians were already disciples; and this common name, like the common faith, they …
