- New Testament only; original spelling.
1 And the Apostles and the brethren that were thorowout Iewry harde saye that the hethen had also receaved the worde of God.
1 Y OYERON los apóstoles y los hermanos que estaban en Judea, que también los Gentiles habían recibido la palabra de Dios.
2 And when Peter was come vp to Ierusalem they of the circumcision reasoned wyth him
2 Y como Pedro subió á Jerusalem, contendían contra él los que eran de la circuncisión,
3 sayinge: Thou wentest in to men vncircumcised and atest with them.
3 Diciendo: ¿Por qué has entrado á hombres incircuncisos, y has comido con ellos?
4 Then Peter began and expounded the thinge in order to the sayinge:
4 Entonces comenzando Pedro, les declaró por orden [lo pasado], diciendo:
5 I was in the cyte of Ioppa prayinge and in a traunce I sawe a vision a certen vessell descende as it had bene a large lynnyn clothe let doune from hevin by the fower corners and it cam to me.
5 Estaba yo en la ciudad de Joppe orando, y vi en rapto de entendimiento una visión: un vaso, como un gran lienzo, que descendía, que por los cuatro cabos era abajado del cielo, y venía hasta mí.
6 Into the which when I had fastened myn eyes I consydered and sawe fowerfoted beastes of the erth and vermen and wormes and foules of the ayer.
6 En el cual como puse los ojos, consideré y vi animales terrestres de cuatro pies, y fieras, y reptiles, y aves del cielo.
7 And I herde a voyce sayinge vnto me: aryse Peter sley and eate.
7 Y oí una voz que me decía: Levántate, Pedro, mata y come.
8 And I sayd: God forbyd lorde for nothinge comen or vnclene hath at eny tyme entred into my mouth.
8 Y dije: Señor, no; porque ninguna cosa común ó inmunda entró jamás en mi boca.
9 But the voyce answered me agayne from heven count not thou those thinges come which god hath clensed.
9 Entonces la voz me respondió del cielo segunda vez: Lo que Dios limpió, no lo llames tú común.
10 And this was done thre tymes. And all were takin vp agayne into heven.
10 Y esto fué hecho por tres veces: y volvió todo á ser tomado arriba en el cielo.
11 And beholde immediatly ther were thre men come vnto the housse where I was sent from Cesarea vnto me.
11 Y he aquí, luego sobrevinieron tres hombres á la casa donde yo estaba, enviados á mí de Cesarea.
12 And the sprete sayde vnto me that I shuld go with them with out doutinge. Morover the sixe brethren accompanyed me: and we entred into the mans housse.
12 Y el Espíritu me dijo que fuese con ellos sin dudar. Y vinieron también conmigo estos seis hermanos, y entramos en casa de un varón,
13 And he shewed vs how he had sene an angell in his housse which stod and sayde to him: Send men to Ioppa and call for Symon named also Peter:
13 El cual nos contó cómo había visto un ángel en su casa, que se paró, y le dijo: Envía á Joppe, y haz venir á un Simón que tiene por sobrenombre Pedro;
14 he shall tell the wordes wherby both thou and all thyne housse shalbe saved.
14 El cual te hablará palabras por las cuales serás salvo tú, y toda tu casa.
15 And as I begane to preach the holy goost fell on them as he dyd on vs at the begynninge.
15 Y como comencé á hablar, cayó el Espíritu Santo sobre ellos también, como sobre nosotros al principio.
16 Then came to my remembraunce the wordes of the Lorde how he sayde: Iohn baptised with water but ye shalbe baptysed with the holy goost.
16 Entonces me acordé del dicho del Señor, como dijo: Juan ciertamente bautizó en agua; mas vosotros seréis bautizados en Espíritu Santo.
17 For as moche then as God gave the lyke gyftes as he dyd vnto vs when we beleved on the Lorde Iesus Christ: what was I that I shuld have with stonde God?
17 Así que, si Dios les dió el mismo don también como á nosotros que hemos creído en el Señor Jesucristo, ¿quién era yo que pudiese estorbar á Dios?
18 when they hearde this they helde their peace and gloryfied God sayinge: then hath God also to the gentyls graunted repentaunce vnto lyfe.
18 Entonces, oídas estas cosas, callaron, y glorificaron á Dios, diciendo: De manera que también á los Gentiles ha dado Dios arrepentimiento para vida.
19 They which were scattryd abroade thorow the affliccion that arose aboute Steven walked thorow oute tyll they came vnto Phenices and Cypers and Antioche preachynge the worde to no man but vnto the Iewes only.
19 Y los que habían sido esparcidos por causa de la tribulación que sobrevino en tiempo de Esteban, anduvieron hasta Fenicia, y Cipro, y Antioquía, no hablando á nadie la palabra, sino sólo á los Judíos.
20 Some of them were men of Cypers and Syrene which when they were come into Antioche spake vnto the Grekes and preched the Lorde Iesus.
20 Y de ellos había unos varones Ciprios y Cirenenses, los cuales como entraron en Antioquía, hablaron á los Griegos, anunciando el evangelio del Señor Jesús.
21 And the honde of the Lorde was with them and a greate nombre beleved and turned vnto the Lorde.
21 Y la mano del Señor era con ellos: y creyendo, gran número se convirtió al Señor.
22 Tydinges of these thinges came vnto the eares of the congregacion which was in Ierusalem. And they sente forth Barnabas that he shuld go vnto Antioche.
22 Y llegó la fama de estas cosas á oídos de la iglesia que estaba en Jerusalem: y enviaron á Bernabé que fuese hasta Antioquía.
23 Which when he was come and had sene the grace of God was glad and exhorted them all that with purpose of hert they wolde continually cleave vnto the Lorde.
23 El cual, como llegó, y vió la gracia de Dios, regocijóse; y exhortó á todos á que permaneciesen en el propósito del corazón en el Señor.
24 For he was a good man and full of the holy goost and of faythe: and moche people was added vnto the Lorde.
24 Porque era varón bueno, y lleno de Espíritu Santo y de fe: y mucha compañía fué agregada al Señor.
25 Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus for to seke Saul.
25 Después partió Bernabé á Tarso á buscar á Saulo; y hallado, le trajo á Antioquía.
26 And when he had founde him he brought him vnto Antioche. And it chaunsed that a whole yere they had their conversacion with the congregacion there and taught moche people: in so moche that the disciples of Antioche were the fyrst that were called Christen.
26 Y conversaron todo un año allí con la iglesia, y enseñaron á mucha gente; y los discípulos fueron llamados Cristianos primeramente en Antioquía.
27 In those dayes came Prophetes from Ierusalem vnto Antioche.
27 Y en aquellos días descendieron de Jerusalem profetas á Antioquía.
28 And ther stode vp one of them named Agabus and signified by the sprete that ther shuld be great derth throughoute all the worlde which came to passe in the Emproure Claudius dayes.
28 Y levantándose uno de ellos, llamado Agabo, daba á entender por Espíritu, que había de haber una grande hambre en toda la tierra habitada: la cual hubo en tiempo de Claudio.
29 Then the disciples every man accordinge to his abilite purposed to sende socoure vnto the brethren which dwelt in Iewry.
29 Entonces los discípulos, cada uno conforme á lo que tenía, determinaron enviar subsidio á los hermanos que habitaban en Judea:
30 Which thinge they also dyd and sent it to the elders by the hondes of Barnabas and Saul.
30 Lo cual asimismo hicieron, enviándolo á los ancianos por mano de Bernabé y de Saulo.

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.

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 …
