Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 Erant autem in ecclesia quæ erat Antiochiæ, prophetæ et doctores, in quibus Barnabas, et Simon qui vocabatur Niger, et Lucius Cyrenensis, et Manahen, qui erat Herodis Tetrarchæ collactaneus, et Saulus.
1 HABÍA entonces en la iglesia que estaba en Antioquía, profetas y doctores: Bernabé, y Simón el que se llamaba Niger, y Lucio Cireneo, y Manahén, que había sido criado con Herodes el tetrarca, y Saulo.
1 Now in the assembly that was at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
2 Ministrantibus autem illis Domino, et jejunantibus, dixit illis Spiritus Sanctus: Segregate mihi Saulum et Barnabam in opus ad quod assumpsi eos.
2 Ministrando pues éstos al Señor, y ayunando, dijo el Espíritu Santo: Apartadme á Bernabé y á Saulo para la obra para la cual los he llamado.
2 As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them.”
3 Tunc jejunantes et orantes, imponentesque eis manus, dimiserunt illos.
3 Entonces habiendo ayunado y orado, y puesto las manos encima de ellos, despidiéronlos.
3 Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
4 Et ipsi quidem missi a Spiritu Sancto abierunt Seleuciam: et inde navigaverunt Cyprum.
4 Y ellos, enviados así por el Espíritu Santo, descendieron á Seleucia; y de allí navegaron á Cipro.
4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.
5 Et cum venissent Salaminam, prædicabant verbum Dei in synagogis Judæorum. Habebant autem et Joannem in ministerio.
5 Y llegados á Salamina, anunciaban la palabra de Dios en las sinagogas de los Judíos: y tenían también á Juan en el ministerio.
5 When they were at Salamis, they proclaimed God’s word in the Jewish synagogues. They also had John as their attendant.
6 Et cum perambulassent universam insulam usque Paphum, invenerunt quemdam virum magum pseudoprophetam, Judæum, cui nomen erat Barjesu,
6 Y habiendo atravesado toda la isla hasta Papho, hallaron un hombre mago, falso profeta, Judío, llamado Barjesús;
6 When they had gone through the island to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew whose name was Bar Jesus,
7 qui erat cum proconsule Sergio Paulo viro prudente. Hic, accersitis Barnaba et Saulo, desiderabat audire verbum Dei.
7 El cual estaba con el procónsul Sergio Paulo, varón prudente. Este, llamando á Bernabé y á Saulo, deseaba oir la palabra de Dios.
7 who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear the word of God.
8 Resistebat autem illis Elymas magus (sic enim interpretatur nomen ejus), quærens avertere proconsulem a fide.
8 Mas les resistía Elimas el encantador (que así se interpreta su nombre), procurando apartar de la fe al procónsul.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.
9 Saulus autem, qui et Paulus, repletus Spiritu Sancto, intuens in eum,
9 Entonces Saulo, que también [es] Pablo, lleno del Espíritu Santo, poniendo en él los ojos,
9 But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him
10 dixit: O plene omni dolo et omni fallacia, fili diaboli, inimice omnis justitiæ, non desinis subvertere vias Domini rectas.
10 Dijo: Oh, lleno de todo engaño y de toda maldad, hijo del diablo, enemigo de toda justicia, ¿no cesarás de trastornar los caminos rectos del Señor?
10 and said, “You son of the devil, full of all deceit and all cunning, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
11 Et nunc ecce manus Domini super te, et eris cæcus, non videns solem usque ad tempus. Et confestim cecidit in eum caligo et tenebræ: et circuiens quærebat qui ei manum daret.
11 Ahora pues, he aquí la mano del Señor es contra ti, y serás ciego, que no veas el sol por tiempo. Y luego cayeron en él obscuridad y tinieblas; y andando alrededor, buscaba quién le condujese por la mano.
11 Now, behold, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind, not seeing the sun for a season!” Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him. He went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
12 Tunc proconsul cum vidisset factum, credidit admirans super doctrina Domini.
12 Entonces el procónsul, viendo lo que había sido hecho, creyó, maravillado de la doctrina del Señor.
12 Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
13 Et cum a Papho navigassent Paulus et qui cum eo erant, venerunt Pergen Pamphyliæ. Joannes autem discedens ab eis, reversus est Jerosolymam.
13 Y partidos de Papho, Pablo y sus compañeros arribaron á Perge de Pamphylia: entonces Juan, apartándose de ellos, se volvió á Jerusalem.
13 Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.
14 Illi vero pertranseuntes Pergen, venerunt Antiochiam Pisidiæ: et ingressi synagogam die sabbatorum, sederunt.
14 Y ellos pasando de Perge, llegaron á Antioquía de Pisidia, y entrando en la sinagoga un día de sábado, sentáronse.
14 But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day and sat down.
15 Post lectionem autem legis et prophetarum, miserunt principes synagogæ ad eos, dicentes: Viri fratres, si quis est in vobis sermo exhortationis ad plebem, dicite.
15 Y después de la lectura de la ley y de los profetas, los príncipes de la sinagoga enviaron á ellos, diciendo: Varones hermanos, si tenéis alguna palabra de exhortación para el pueblo, hablad.
15 After the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, speak.”
16 Surgens autem Paulus, et manu silentium indicens, ait: Viri Israëlitæ, et qui timetis Deum, audite:
16 Entonces Pablo, levantándose, hecha señal de silencio con la mano, dice: Varones Israelitas, y los que teméis á Dios, oid:
16 Paul stood up, and gesturing with his hand said, “Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen.
17 Deus plebis Israël elegit patres nostros, et plebem exaltavit cum essent incolæ in terra Ægypti, et in brachio excelso eduxit eos ex ea,
17 El Dios del pueblo de Israel escogió á nuestros padres, y ensalzó al pueblo, siendo ellos extranjeros en la tierra de Egipto, y con brazo levantado los sacó de ella.
17 The God of this people chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed as aliens in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them out of it.
18 et per quadraginta annorum tempus mores eorum sustinuit in deserto.
18 Y por tiempo como de cuarenta años soportó sus costumbres en el desierto;
18 For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.
19 Et destruens gentes septem in terra Chanaan, sorte distribuit eis terram eorum,
19 Y destruyendo siete naciones en la tierra de Canaán, les repartió por suerte la tierra de ellas.
19 When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land for an inheritance for about four hundred fifty years.
20 quasi post quadringentos et quinquaginta annos: et post hæc dedit judices, usque ad Samuel prophetam.
20 Y después, como por cuatrocientos y cincuenta años, dió[les] jueces hasta el profeta Samuel.
20 After these things, he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.
21 Et exinde postulaverunt regem: et dedit illis Deus Saul filium Cis, virum de tribu Benjamin, annis quadraginta:
21 Y entonces demandaron rey; y les dió Dios á Saúl, hijo de Cis, varón de la tribu de Benjamín, por cuarenta años.
21 Afterward they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.
22 et amoto illo, suscitavit illis David regem: cui testimonium perhibens, dixit: Inveni David filium Jesse, virum secundum cor meum, qui faciet omnes voluntates meas.
22 Y quitado aquél, levantóles por rey á David, al que dió también testimonio, diciendo: He hallado á David, [hijo] de Jessé, varón conforme á mi corazón, el cual hará todo lo que yo quiero.
22 When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my will.’
23 Hujus Deus ex semine secundum promissionem eduxit Israël salvatorem Jesum,
23 De la simiente de éste, Dios, conforme á la promesa, levantó á Jesús por Salvador á Israel;
23 From this man’s offspring, God has brought salvation to Israel according to his promise,
24 prædicante Joanne ante faciem adventus ejus baptismum pœnitentiæ omni populo Israël.
24 Predicando Juan delante de la faz de su venida el bautismo de arrepentimiento á todo el pueblo de Israel.
24 before his coming, when John had first preached the baptism of repentance to Israel.
25 Cum impleret autem Joannes cursum suum, dicebat: Quem me arbitramini esse, non sum ego: sed ecce venit post me, cujus non sum dignus calceamenta pedum solvere.
25 Mas como Juan cumpliese su carrera, dijo: ¿Quién pensáis que soy? No soy yo [él]; mas he aquí, viene tras mí uno, cuyo calzado de los pies no soy digno de desatar.
25 As John was fulfilling his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. But behold, one comes after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’
26 Viri fratres, filii generis Abraham, et qui in vobis timent Deum, vobis verbum salutis hujus missum est.
26 Varones hermanos, hijos del linaje de Abraham, y los que entre vosotros temen á Dios, á vosotros es enviada la palabra de esta salud.
26 “Brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, the word of this salvation is sent out to you.
27 Qui enim habitabant Jerusalem, et principes ejus hunc ignorantes, et voces prophetarum quæ per omne sabbatum leguntur, judicantes impleverunt,
27 Porque los que habitaban en Jerusalem, y sus príncipes, no conociendo á éste, y las voces de los profetas que se leen todos los sábados, condenándo[le], [las] cumplieron.
27 For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they didn’t know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.
28 et nullam causam mortis invenientes in eo, petierunt a Pilato ut interficerent eum.
28 Y sin hallar [en él] causa de muerte, pidieron á Pilato que le matasen.
28 Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.
29 Cumque consummassent omnia quæ de eo scripta erant, deponentes eum de ligno, posuerunt eum in monumento.
29 Y habiendo cumplido todas las cosas que de él estaban escritas, quitándolo del madero, lo pusieron en el sepulcro.
29 When they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.
30 Deus vero suscitavit eum a mortuis tertia die: qui visus est per dies multos his
30 Mas Dios le levantó de los muertos.
30 But God raised him from the dead,
31 qui simul ascenderant cum eo de Galilæa in Jerusalem: qui usque nunc sunt testes ejus ad plebem.
31 Y él fué visto por muchos días de los que habían subido juntamente con él de Galilea á Jerusalem, los cuales son sus testigos al pueblo.
31 and he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
32 Et nos vobis annuntiamus eam, quæ ad patres nostros repromissio facta est:
32 Y nosotros también os anunciamos el evangelio de aquella promesa que fué hecha á los padres,
32 We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,
33 quoniam hanc Deus adimplevit filiis nostris resuscitans Jesum, sicut et in psalmo secundo scriptum est: Filius meus es tu, ego hodie genui te.
33 La cual Dios ha cumplido á los hijos de ellos, á nosotros, resucitando á Jesús: como también en el salmo segundo está escrito: Mi hijo eres tú, yo te he engendrado hoy.
33 that God has fulfilled this to us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second psalm, ‘You are my Son. Today I have become your father.’
34 Quod autem suscitavit eum a mortuis, amplius jam non reversurum in corruptionem, ita dixit: Quia dabo vobis sancta David fidelia.
34 Y que le levantó de los muertos para nunca más volver á corrupción, así [lo] dijo: Os daré las misericordias fieles de David.
34 “Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’
35 Ideoque et alias dicit: Non dabis sanctum tuum videre corruptionem.
35 Por eso dice también en otro [lugar]: No permitirás que tu Santo vea corrupción.
35 Therefore he says also in another psalm, ‘You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.’
36 David enim in sua generatione cum administrasset, voluntati Dei dormivit: et appositus est ad patres suos, et vidit corruptionem.
36 Porque á la verdad David, habiendo servido en su edad á la voluntad de Dios, durmió, y fué juntado con sus padres, y vió corrupción:
36 For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, was laid with his fathers, and saw decay.
37 Quem vero Deus suscitavit a mortuis, non vidit corruptionem.
37 Mas aquel que Dios levantó, no vió corrupción.
37 But he whom God raised up saw no decay.
38 Notum igitur sit vobis, viri fratres, quia per hunc vobis remissio peccatorum annuntiatur, et ab omnibus quibus non potuistis in lege Moysi justificari,
38 Séaos pues notorio, varones hermanos, que por éste os es anunciada remisión de pecados;
38 Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you remission of sins;
39 in hoc omnis qui credit, justificatur.
39 Y de todo lo que por la ley de Moisés no pudisteis ser justificados, en éste es justificado todo aquel que creyere.
39 and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
40 Videte ergo ne superveniat vobis quod dictum est in prophetis:
40 Mirad, pues, que no venga sobre vosotros lo que está dicho en los profetas;
40 Beware therefore, lest that come on you which is spoken in the prophets:
41 [Videte contemptores, et admiramini, et disperdimini: quia opus operor ego in diebus vestris, opus quod non credetis, si quis enarraverit vobis.]
41 Mirad, oh menospreciadores, y entonteceos, y desvaneceos; porque yo obro una obra en vuestros días, obra que no creeréis, si alguien os la contare.
41 ‘Behold, you scoffers! Wonder and perish, for I work a work in your days, a work which you will in no way believe, if one declares it to you.’”
42 Exeuntibus autem illis rogabant ut sequenti sabbato loquerentur sibi verba hæc.
42 Y saliendo [ellos] de la sinagoga de los Judíos, los Gentiles [les] rogaron que el sábado siguiente les hablasen estas palabras.
42 So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath.
43 Cumque dimissa esset synagoga, secuti sunt multi Judæorum, et colentium advenarum, Paulum et Barnabam: qui loquentes suadebant eis ut permanerent in gratia Dei.
43 Y despedida la congregación, muchos de los Judíos y de los religiosos prosélitos siguieron á Pablo y á Bernabé; los cuales hablándoles, les persuadían que permaneciesen en la gracia de Dios.
43 Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.
44 Sequenti vero sabbato pene universa civitas convenit audire verbum Dei.
44 Y el sábado siguiente se juntó casi toda la ciudad á oir la palabra de Dios.
44 The next Sabbath, almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of God.
45 Videntes autem turbas Judæi, repleti sunt zelo, et contradicebant his quæ a Paulo dicebantur, blasphemantes.
45 Mas los Judíos, visto el gentío, llenáronse de celo, y se oponían á lo que Pablo decía, contradiciendo y blasfemando.
45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed.
46 Tunc constanter Paulus et Barnabas dixerunt: Vobis oportebat primum loqui verbum Dei: sed quoniam repellitis illud, et indignos vos judicatis æternæ vitæ, ecce convertimur ad gentes.
46 Entonces Pablo y Bernabé, usando de libertad, dijeron: A vosotros á la verdad era menester que se os hablase la palabra de Dios; mas pues que la desecháis, y os juzgáis indignos de la vida eterna, he aquí, nos volvemos á los Gentiles.
46 Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, “It was necessary that God’s word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from yourselves, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.
47 Sic enim præcepit nobis Dominus: Posui te in lucem gentium, ut sis in salutem usque ad extremum terræ.
47 Porque así nos ha mandado el Señor, [diciendo]: Te he puesto para luz de los Gentiles, para que seas salud hasta lo postrero de la tierra.
47 For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, ‘I have set you as a light for the Gentiles, that you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’”
48 Audientes autem gentes, gavisæ sunt, et glorificabant verbum Domini: et crediderunt quotquot erant præordinati ad vitam æternam.
48 Y los Gentiles oyendo esto, fueron gozosos, y glorificaban la palabra del Señor: y creyeron todos los que estaban ordenados para vida eterna.
48 As the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of God. As many as were appointed to eternal life believed.
49 Disseminabatur autem verbum Domini per universam regionem.
49 Y la palabra del Señor era sembrada por toda aquella provincia.
49 The Lord’s word was spread abroad throughout all the region.
50 Judæi autem concitaverunt mulieres religiosas et honestas, et primos civitatis, et excitaverunt persecutionem in Paulum et Barnabam: et ejecerunt eos de finibus suis.
50 Mas los Judíos concitaron mujeres pías y honestas, y á los principales de la ciudad, y levantaron persecución contra Pablo y Bernabé, y los echaron de sus términos.
50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and prominent women and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their borders.
51 At illi excusso pulvere pedum in eos, venerunt Iconium.
51 Ellos entonces sacudiendo en ellos el polvo de sus pies, vinieron á Iconio.
51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
52 Discipuli quoque replebantur gaudio, et Spiritu Sancto.
52 Y los discípulos estaban llenos de gozo, y del Espíritu Santo.
52 The disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
