Svätý Duch zostúpi na učeníkov

1 Uplynulo sedem týždňov od Ježišovej smrti a jeho zmŕtvychvstania. Nastali Letnice, sviatok prvej úrody, a Kristovi nasledovníci sa opäť zhromaždili. 2 Zrazu sa strhol hukot, ako keď sa ženie silný vietor, a naplnil celý dom, v ktorom sa zišli. 3 Potom sa zjavili plamene, akoby ohnivé jazyky, ktoré horeli nad hlavou každého z nich. 4 A všetci boli naplnení Duchom Svätým. Prejavilo sa to tým, že získali schopnosť hovoriť inými jazykmi, ktoré predtým neovládali. 5 V tom čase bolo v Jeruzaleme veľa zbožných Židov, ktorí prišli na sviatky z mnohých krajín a národov. 6 Ten zvláštny šum prilákal mnohých pútnikov, ktorí boli ohromení, keď počuli hovoriť Ježišových učeníkov v ich rodnom jazyku. 7 Čudovali sa a žasli: „Ako je to možné? Predsa všetci, ktorí tu hovoria, pochádzajú z Galiley? 8 A každý z nás ich počuje vo svojom rodnom jazyku hovoriť o veľkých Božích veciach.“ 9 Medzi poslucháčmi boli Partovia, Médovia a Elamčania, obyvatelia Mezopotámie, Judska, Kapadócie, Pontu a Ázie, 10 Frýgie a Pamfýlie, Egypta a krajov Líbye, z okolia Cyrény, ľudia z Ríma, 11 Kréty i Arábie, rodení Žida aj na židovskú vieru obrátení pohania. 12 Všetci žasli a spytovali sa navzájom: „Čo sa to deje?“ 13 Ale poniektorí sa smiali a hovorili: „Sú opití.“

Petrova reč

14 Tu vystúpil Peter s jedenástimi učeníkmi a mocným hlasom prehovoril k zástupu. „Pozorne ma počúvajte všetci, návštevníci aj obyvatelia Jeruzalema! 15 Niektorí z vás hovoria, že sme opití. To nie je pravda. Veď je iba deväť hodín ráno. 16 Ale splnilo sa to, čo predpovedal prorok Joel pred mnohými stáročiami: 17 ‚V posledných dňoch, hovorí Boh, zošlem svojho Ducha na všetkých ľudí, vaši synovia a dcéry budú prorokovať, vaši mladí ľudia budú mať videnia a starým sa budú snívať sny. 18 Svätý Duch zostúpi na mojich služobníkov, na mužov aj ženy, a budú prorokovať. 19 Na nebi aj na zemi sa zjavia zvláštne úkazy, krv, oheň a stĺpy dymu, 20 slnko sa zatmie a mesiac bude červený ako krv. To znamená, že prichádza veľký a slávny deň Pánov, ktorý bude súdiť všetkých ľudí. 21 Len ten, kto ho uznáva za svojho Pána, bude zachránený.‘ “ Peter pokračoval: 22 „Mužovia izraelskí, počujte: Žil tu medzi vami Ježiš z Nazareta, ktorého Boh preslávil veľkými zázrakmi a znameniami. Mnohí z vás by to mohli dosvedčiť. 23 A tohto muža ste sa vy zmocnili a rukami pohanov ste ho pribili na kríž. No tým ste vlastne splnili Boží úmysel. 24 Ale Boh ho vytrhol z moci smrti, ktorá ho nemohla udržať, a vzkriesil ho z mŕtvych. 25 To o ňom spieva Dávid v žalme:‚Pána mám ustavične pred očami, stojí pri mne, a tak nezakolíšem. 26 Preto sa moje srdce raduje, a moje ústa spievajú chválu, veď aj pre moje telo je nádej. 27 Nezanecháš ma v ríši smrti a nedopustíš, aby sa telo tvojho vyvoleného rozpadlo na prach. 28 Povedieš ma cestou života a tvoja prítomnosť ma naplní radosťou.‘ 29 Milí bratia! Môžem vám smelo povedať, že náš praotec Dávid tieto slová nehovoril o sebe. Dávid zomrel, bol pochovaný a jeho hrob tu máme až dodnes. 30 Ale Dávid bol prorok a vedel o Božom sľube, že jeden z jeho potomkov bude Mesiášom a bude sedieť na jeho tróne. 31 A tak, keď hovoril, že nezostane v ríši smrti a jeho telo sa nerozpadne na prach, prorokoval vlastne Kristovo vzkriesenie z mŕtvych. 32 Áno, práve Ježiša Boh vzkriesil a my všetci to môžeme dosvedčiť. 33 Teraz je v nebesiach po Božej pravici, prijal Ducha Svätého, ktorého Boh sľúbil a teraz ho zoslal na nás, ako to vidíte a počujete. 34 A Dávid nehovoril o sebe ani vtedy, keď napísal: ‚Boh povedal môjmu Pánovi: Seď po mojej pravici, 35 kým ti nepoložím nepriateľov pod nohy.‘ 36 Nech teda vie každý Izraelita: Toho Ježiša, ktorého ste vy ukrižovali, urobil Boh Pánom a Mesiášom.“

Zvesť o Ježišovi mení ľudí

37 Petrove slová sa hlboko dotkli mnohých poslucháčov a začali sa spytovať apoštolov: „Bratia, čo máme robiť?“ 38 Peter im odpovedal: „Nech sa každý z vás odvráti od hriechu, navráti sa k Bohu a dá sa pokrstiť v mene Ježiša Krista na odpustenie hriechov. A vtedy aj vy dostanete dar Svätého Ducha. 39 Veď ten prorocký sľub patrí vám, vašim deťom, ba aj ľuďom po celom svete, ktorých si Pán Boh ešte povolá.“ 40 Ešte dlho im Peter hovoril o Ježišovi a naliehavo ich vyzýval: „Zachráňte sa pred touto zvrátenou generáciou!“ 41 Tí, ktorí Petra poslúchli, sa dali pokrstiť. Toho dňa sa pripojilo k Ježišovým nasledovníkom okolo tritisíc ľudí. 42 Dychtivo počúvali učenie apoštolov, žili v bratskom spločenstve, spoločne lámali chlieb na pamiatku Kristovej poslednej večere a modlili sa. 43 Všetkých sa zmocnila bázeň, lebo Boh prostredníctvom apoštolov konal mnohé zázraky a znamenia. 44 Veriaci akoby tvorili jednu rodinu a so všetkými sa delili, 45 ba aj majetok mali spoločný. Predávali svoje majetky a peniaze delili medzi všetkých, ako kto potreboval. 46 Všetci sa spoločne každý deň zhromažďovali v jeruzalemskom chráme a v menších skupinách sa schádzavali po domoch, kde radostne a úprimne spolu jedávali. 47 Svoju vďačnosť Bohu vyjadrovali chválami a spevom a všetkým ľuďom sa to páčilo. Pán im denne pridával ďalších, ktorí uverili a boli zachránení.

The Coming of the Holy Spirit

1 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. (Lv 23,15; Sk 20,16; 1 Kor 16,8) 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. (1 Kr 19,11; Jób 38,1; Ez 1,4; Sk 4,31; Sk 16,26)

1 Kr 19,11Jób 38,1Ez 1,4Sk 4,31Sk 16,26

3 And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested^[1] on each one of them. (Mt 3,11) 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. (Mk 16,17; Sk 4,31; Sk 13,52; 1 Kor 12,10)

Mk 16,17Sk 4,31Sk 13,521 Kor 12,10

5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven. 6 And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language. (Sk 2,2) 7 And they were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? (Mt 26,73; Sk 1,11; Sk 2,12) 8 And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native language? 9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, (Gn 14,1; Gn 14,9; 2 Kr 17,6; Iz 11,11; Dan 8,2)

Gn 14,1Gn 14,92 Kr 17,6Iz 11,11Dan 8,2

10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, 11 both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God.” (Mt 23,15; Sk 6,5; Sk 13,43) 12 And all were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” (Sk 2,7) 13 But others mocking said, “They are filled with new wine.” (Sk 17,32; 1 Kor 14,23)

Peter’s Sermon at Pentecost

14 But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them: “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. 15 For these people are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day.^[2] (1 Sol 5,7) 16 But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel: 17 “‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; (Iz 32,15; Iz 44,3; Ez 36,27; Joel 2,28; Sk 2,18; Sk 2,33; Sk 10,45; Sk 21,9; Rim 5,5; Tit 3,6)

Iz 32,15Iz 44,3Ez 36,27Joel 2,28Sk 2,18Sk 2,33Sk 10,45Sk 21,9Rim 5,5Tit 3,6

18 even on my male servants and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy. (Sk 11,28; Sk 21,10; 1 Kor 12,10) 19 And I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke; 20 the sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day. (Mt 24,29; 1 Sol 5,2; Zjv 16,14) 21 And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.’ (Sk 16,31; Rim 10,13) 22 “Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know— (Mt 12,28; Lk 24,19; Jn 3,2; Sk 10,38; 2 Kor 12,12; 2 Sol 2,9; Hebr 2,4)

23 this Jesus,^[3] delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. (Mt 20,19; Mt 26,24; Lk 22,22; Lk 24,20; Sk 3,13; Sk 3,18; Sk 4,28; Sk 5,30; Sk 13,27; 1 Pt 1,2; 1 Pt 1,20; Zjv 13,8)

24 God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it. (Lk 24,5; Jn 10,18; Sk 2,32; Sk 3,15; Sk 4,10; Sk 10,40; Sk 13,30; Sk 13,33; Sk 13,37; Sk 17,31; Rim 4,24; Rim 6,4; Rim 8,11; Rim 10,9; 1 Kor 6,14; 1 Kor 15,15; 2 Kor 4,14; Gal 1,1; Ef 1,20; Ef 2,5; Kol 2,12; 1 Sol 1,10; 2 Tim 1,10; Hebr 2,14; Hebr 13,20; 1 Pt 1,21; Zjv 1,17)

25 For David says concerning him, “‘I saw the Lord always before me, for he is at my right hand that I may not be shaken; (Ž 16,8) 26 therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced; my flesh also will dwell in hope. (Rim 4,18) 27 For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, or let your Holy One see corruption. (Mt 11,23; Lk 2,26; Sk 2,31; Sk 13,35; Hebr 7,26)

Mt 11,23Lk 2,26Sk 2,31Sk 13,35Hebr 7,26

28 You have made known to me the paths of life; you will make me full of gladness with your presence.’ 29 “Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. (1 Kr 2,10; Neh 3,16; Sk 7,8; Sk 13,36; Hebr 7,4)

1 Kr 2,10Neh 3,16Sk 7,8Sk 13,36Hebr 7,4

30 Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that he would set one of his descendants on his throne, (2 Sam 23,2; Mt 22,43; Lk 1,32; Hebr 11,32)

2 Sam 23,2Mt 22,43Lk 1,32Hebr 11,32

31 he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Sk 2,27) 32 This Jesus God raised up, and of that we all are witnesses. (Sk 1,22; Sk 2,24; Sk 4,33) 33 Being therefore exalted at the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this that you yourselves are seeing and hearing. (Ex 15,6; Ž 98,1; Jn 16,7; Sk 1,4; Sk 2,17; Sk 5,31; Gal 3,14; Ef 1,20; Flp 2,9; Hebr 2,9; 1 Pt 3,22)

34 For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says, “‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, (Ž 110,1; Jn 3,13) 35 until I make your enemies your footstool.”’ 36 Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.” (Mt 28,18; Sk 2,23; Rim 14,9; 2 Kor 4,5)

Mt 28,18Sk 2,23Rim 14,92 Kor 4,5

37 Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” (Lk 3,10; Sk 5,33; Sk 7,54; Sk 16,30)

Lk 3,10Sk 5,33Sk 7,54Sk 16,30

38 And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. (Mk 1,4; Mk 16,16; Lk 24,47; Jn 7,39; Sk 3,19; Sk 8,12; Sk 8,15; Sk 8,16; Sk 8,20; Sk 10,45; Sk 10,48; Sk 11,17; Sk 20,21; Sk 22,16; Sk 26,18; Sk 26,20)

39 For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” (Iz 44,3; Iz 54,13; Iz 57,19; Joel 2,32; Sk 3,25; Sk 22,21; Rim 8,30; Rim 9,4; Ef 2,13; Ef 2,17)

40 And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” (Dt 32,5; Mt 17,17; Sk 2,21; Sk 2,47; Flp 2,15)

Dt 32,5Mt 17,17Sk 2,21Sk 2,47Flp 2,15

41 So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls. (Sk 2,47)

The Fellowship of the Believers

42 And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. (Lk 24,35; Sk 1,14; Sk 2,46; Sk 20,7; 1 Kor 14,6; Gal 2,9; Flp 1,5; Hebr 10,25; 1 Jn 1,3)

43 And awe^[4] came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. (Mk 16,20) 44 And all who believed were together and had all things in common. (Mt 19,21; Sk 4,32; Sk 4,34) 45 And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. (Sk 2,44) 46 And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, (Lk 24,53; Jn 16,22; Sk 1,14; Sk 2,42; Sk 3,1; Sk 5,21; Sk 5,42; Sk 16,34)

Lk 24,53Jn 16,22Sk 1,14Sk 2,42Sk 3,1Sk 5,21Sk 5,42Sk 16,34

47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved. (Sk 2,21; Sk 2,40; Sk 2,41; Sk 5,13; Sk 5,14; Sk 11,24; Sk 16,5; Sk 16,31; 1 Kor 1,18)
