RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

1 Y COMO se cumplieron los días de Pentecostés, estaban todos unánimes juntos;

2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

2 Y de repente vino un estruendo del cielo como de un viento recio que corría, el cual hinchió toda la casa donde estaban sentados;

3 And there appeared to them, cloven tongues as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

3 Y se les aparecieron lenguas repartidas, como de fuego, que se asentó sobre cada uno de ellos.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

4 Y fueron todos llenos del Espíritu Santo, y comenzaron á hablar en otras lenguas, como el Espíritu les daba que hablasen.

5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.

5 Moraban entonces en Jerusalem Judíos, varones religiosos, de todas las naciones debajo del cielo.

6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because every man heard them speak in his own language.

6 Y hecho este estruendo, juntóse la multitud; y estaban confusos, porque cada uno les oía hablar su propia lengua.

7 And they were all amazed, and marveled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these who speak Galileans?

7 Y estaban atónitos y maravillados, diciendo: He aquí ¿no son Galileos todos estos que hablan?

8 And how do we hear every man in our own language, wherein we were born?

8 ¿Cómo, pues, les oímos nosotros [hablar] cada uno en nuestra lengua en que somos nacidos?

9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

9 Partos y Medos, y Elamitas, y los que habitamos en Mesopotamia, en Judea y en Capadocia, en el Ponto y en Asia,

10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and Proselytes,

10 En Phrygia y Pamphylia, en Egipto y en las partes de Africa que está de la otra parte de Cirene, y Romanos extranjeros, tanto Judíos como convertidos,

11 Cretes and Arabians we hear them speak in our languages the wonderful works of God.

11 Cretenses y Arabes, les oímos hablar en nuestras lenguas las maravillas de Dios.

12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?

12 Y estaban todos atónitos y perplejos, diciendo los unos á los otros: ¿Qué quiere ser esto?

13 Others mocking, said, These men are full of new wine.

13 Mas otros burlándose, decían: Que están llenos de mosto.

14 But Peter standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Ye men of Judea, and all [ye] that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words:

14 Entonces Pedro, poniéndose en pie con los once, alzó su voz, y hablóles diciendo: Varones Judíos, y todos los que habitáis en Jerusalem, esto os sea notorio, y oid mis palabras.

15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is [but] the third hour of the day.

15 Porque éstos no están borrachos, como vosotros pensáis, siendo la hora tercia del día;

16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel,

16 Mas esto es lo que fué dicho por el profeta Joel:

17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

17 Y será en los postreros días, dice Dios, derramaré de mi Espíritu sobre toda carne, y vuestros hijos y vuestras hijas profetizarán; y vuestros mancebos verán visiones, y vuestros viejos soñarán sueños:

18 And on my servants, and on my hand-maidens I will, in those days, pour out of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

18 Y de cierto sobre mis siervos y sobre mis siervas en aquellos días derramaré de mi Espíritu, y profetizarán.

19 And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke.

19 Y daré prodigios arriba en el cielo, y señales abajo en la tierra, sangre y fuego y vapor de humo:

20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come.

20 El sol se volverá en tinieblas, y la luna en sangre, antes que venga el día del Señor, grande y manifiesto;

21 And it shall come to pass, [that] whoever shall call on the name of the Lord, shall be saved.

21 Y será que todo aquel que invocare el nombre del Señor, será salvo.

22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved by God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:

22 Varones Israelitas, oid estas palabras: Jesús Nazareno, varón aprobado de Dios entre vosotros en maravillas y prodigios y señales, que Dios hizo por él en medio de vosotros, como también vosotros sabéis;

23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:

23 A éste, entregado por determinado consejo y providencia de Dios, prendisteis y matasteis por manos de los inicuos, crucificándole;

24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be held by it.

24 Al cual Dios levantó, sueltos los dolores de la muerte, por cuanto era imposible ser detenido de ella.

25 For David speaketh concerning him, I saw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:

25 Porque David dice de él: Veía al Señor siempre delante de mí: porque está á mi diestra, no seré conmovido.

26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also, my flesh shall rest in hope:

26 Por lo cual mi corazón se alegró, y gozóse mi lengua; y aun mi carne descansará en esperanza;

27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thy Holy One to see corruption:

27 Que no dejarás mi alma en el infierno, ni darás á tu Santo que vea corrupción.

28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou wilt make me full of joy with thy countenance.

28 Hicísteme notorios los caminos de la vida; me henchirás de gozo con tu presencia.

29 Men, brethren, let me freely speak to you concerning the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher is with us to this day.

29 Varones hermanos, se os puede libremente decir del patriarca David, que murió, y fué sepultado, y su sepulcro está con nosotros hasta del día de hoy.

30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath, that from the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

30 Empero siendo profeta, y sabiendo que con juramento le había Dios jurado que del fruto de su lomo, cuanto á la carne, levantaría al Cristo que se sentaría sobre su trono;

31 He seeing this before, spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither did his flesh see corruption.

31 Viéndolo antes, habló de la resurrección de Cristo, que su alma no fué dejada en el infierno, ni su carne vió corrupción.

32 This Jesus hath God raised up, of which we all are witnesses.

32 A este Jesús resucitó Dios, de lo cual todos nosotros somos testigos.

33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

33 Así que, levantado por la diestra de Dios, y recibiendo del Padre la promesa del Espíritu Santo, ha derramado esto que vosotros veis y oís.

34 For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he saith himself, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

34 Porque David no subió á los cielos; empero él dice: Dijo el Señor á mi Señor: Siéntate á mi diestra,

35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

35 Hasta que ponga á tus enemigos por estrado de tus pies.

36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

36 Sepa pues ciertísimamente toda la casa de Israel, que á éste Jesús que vosotros crucificasteis, Dios ha hecho Señor y Cristo.

37 Now when they heard [this] , they were pricked in their heart, and said to Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men, brethren, what shall we do?

37 Entonces oído [esto], fueron compungidos de corazón, y dijeron á Pedro y á los otros apóstoles: Varones hermanos, ¿qué haremos?

38 Then Peter said to them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

38 Y Pedro les dice: Arrepentíos, y bautícese cada uno de vosotros en el nombre de Jesucristo para perdón de los pecados; y recibiréis el don del Espíritu Santo.

39 For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call.

39 Porque para vosotros es la promesa, y para vuestros hijos, y para todos los que están lejos; [para] cuantos el Señor nuestro Dios llamare.

40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.

40 Y con otras muchas palabras testificaba y exhortaba, diciendo: Sed salvos de esta perversa generación.

41 Then they that gladly received his word, were baptized: and the same day there were added [to them] about three thousand souls.

41 Así que, los que recibieron su palabra, fueron bautizados: y fueron añadidas [á ellos] aquel día como tres mil personas.

42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

42 Y perseveraban en la doctrina de los apóstoles, y en la comunión, y en el partimiento del pan, y en las oraciones.

43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.

43 Y toda persona tenía temor: y muchas maravillas y señales eran hechas por los apóstoles.

44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

44 Y todos los que creían estaban juntos; y tenían todas las cosas comunes;

45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all [men] , as every man had need.

45 Y vendían las posesiones, y las haciendas, y repartíanlas á todos, como cada uno había menester.

46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, ate their food with gladness and singleness of heart,

46 Y perseverando unánimes cada día en el templo, y partiendo el pan en las casas, comían juntos con alegría y con sencillez de corazón,

47 Praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

47 Alabando á Dios, y teniendo gracia con todo el pueblo. Y el Señor añadía cada día á la iglesia los que habían de ser salvos.

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).
