Asan'ny Apostoly 9

Ny nandehanan'i Petera nitety tany, sy ny nananganany an'i Dorkasy tamin'ny maty

1 Ary Saoly mbola nifofofofo fandrahonana sy famonoana tamin'ny mpianatry ny Tompo ihany, dia nankao amin'ny mpisoronabe izy2 ka nangataka taratasy taminy ho any amin'ny synagoga any Damaskosy, mba ho entiny mifatotra ho any Jerosalema izay rehetra hitany momba izany fampianaranat izany, na lahy na vavy.3 Ary raha nandeha izy, dia tonga teo akaikin'i Damaskosy; ary nisy mazava avy tany an-danitra nanelatretatra tampoka manodidina azy;4 dia lavo tamin'ny tany izy ka nandre feo nanao taminy hoe: Saoly, Saoly, nahoana ianao no manenjika Ahy?5 Ary hoy izy: Iza moa ianao, Tompoko? Dia hoy Izy: Izaho no Jesosy Izay enjehinao;6 fa mitsangàna, ka mankanesa ho any an-tanàna, dia holazaina aminao izay mety hataonao.7 Ary ny olona izay nomba azy tamin'ny nalehany dia nitsangana tsy nahateny, ary nandre ny feo izy, nefa tsy nahita olona.8 Ary Saoly nitsangana tamin'ny tany, ary rehefa nahirany ny masony, dia tsy nahita na inona na inona izy; ary ireo nitantana azy ka nitondra azy ho any Damaskosy.9 Ary tsy nahita izy hateloana sady tsy nihinana na nisotro.10 Ary nisy mpianatra anankiray tany Damaskosy, atao hoe Ananiasy; ary hoy ny Tompo taminy tamin'ny fahitana: Ry Ananiasy. Dia hoy izy: Inty aho, Tompoko.11 Ary hoy ny Tompo taminy: Mitsangàna, ka mandehana any amin'ny lalana atao hoe Imahitsy, ka izahao ao an-tranon'i Jodasy izay lehilahy atao hoe Saoly avy any Tarsosy; fa, indro, efa mivavaka izy;12 ary izy efa nahita lehilahy atao hoe Ananiasy niditra ka nametra-tanana taminy, mba hahiratra indray ny masony.13 Ary Ananiasy namaly hoe: Tompoko, efa reko tamin'ny maro ny haben'ny ratsy nataon'izany lehilahy izany tamin'ny olonao masina tany Jerosalema.14 Ary manana fahefanay koa avy tamin'ny mpisoronabe izy hamatotra izay rehetra miantso ny anaranao.15 Fa hoy ny Tompo taminy: Mandehana, fa fanaka voafidy izy ho fitondrana ny anarako eo anatrehan'ny jentilisa sy ny mpanjaka ary ny Zanak'isiraely;16 fa hasehoko azy ny habetsahan'izay tsy maintsy hiaretany ho voninahitry ny anarako.17 Ary nandeha Ananiasy ka niditra tao an-trano, dia nametra-tanana taminy ka nanao hoe Ry Saoly rahalahy, ny Tompo, dia Jesosy Izay niseho taminao teo amin'ny lalana nalehanao, no efa naniraka ahy, mba hahiratan'ny masonao, ary mba ho feno ny Fanahy Masina ianao.18 Ary niaraka tamin'izay dia nisy zavatra toy ny kiran'ny hazandrano niala avy tamin'ny masony, dia nahiratra izy ka nitsangana, dia natao batisa;

19 ary nihinan-kanina izy ka dia natanjaka.

Ary Saoly nitoetra andro vitsivitsy teo amin'ny mpianatra tany Damaskosy.20 Ary niaraka tamin'izay dia nitory teo amin'ny synagoga izy ka nilaza an'i Jesosy fa Zanak'Andriamanitra.21 Ary talanjona izay rehetra nandre ka nanao hoe: Tsy ity va ilay nandringana izay niantso izany anarana izany tany Jerosalema? ary tongay koa izy mba hitondra azy mifatotra ho any amin'ny mpisoronabe.22 Ary Saoly mainka nihahery, dia nandresy lahatra ny Jiosy izay nonina tany Damaskosy ka naneho marimarina fa Jesosyt no Kristy.23 Ary rehefa afaka andro maromaro, dia nihendry hamono azy ny Jiosy;24 nefa fantatr'i Saoly ny fihendreny. Ary izy ireo niambina ny vavahady andro aman'alina hamonoany azy.

25 Fa ny mpianany naka azy nony alina ka nampidina azy tamin'ny sobiky avy eo amin'ny mànda.
26 Ary rehefa tonga tany Jerosalema Saoly, dia nitady hiray tamin'ny mpianatra; fa izy rehetra natahotra azy ka tsy nino azy ho mpianatra.27 Fa Barnabasy naka azy ka nitondra azy ho any amin'ny Apostoly, dia nanambara taminy ny nahitany ny Tompo sy ny nitenenany taminy teny an-dalana ary ny fahasahiany nitory ny anaran'i Jesosy tany Damaskosy.28 Ary izy niara-niditra sy nivoaka tamin'ireo tany Jerosalema,29 sady nitory tamin'ny anaran'ny Tompo tamin'ny fahasahiana ary niresaka sy niady hevitra tamin'ny Helenista; fa ireny nitady hahafaty azy.30 Ary rehefa fantatry ny rahalahy izany, dia nentiny nidina nankany Kaisaria izy ka nampandehaniny ho any Tarsosy.

31 Dia nanam-piadanana ny fiangonana eran'i Jodia sy Galilia ary Samaria rehetra, sady nandroso tsara sy nandeha tamin'ny fahatahorana ny Tompo sy ny famporisihan'ny Fanahy ka nihamaro.

32 Ary raha nandeha nitety ny tany rehetra Petera, dia nidina ho any amin'ny olona masina nonina tany Lyda koa.33 Ary izy nahita lehilahy anankiray teo, atao hoe Enea, izay efa nandry valo taona teo am-parafara, fa mararin'ny paralysisa.34 Ary hoy Petera taminy: Ry Enea, manasitrana anao Jesosy Kristy; mitsangàna, ka amboary ny fandrianao. Dia nitsangana niaraka tamin'izay izy.

35 Ary nahita azy izay rehetra nonina tany Lyda sy Sarôna, ka dia niverina ho amin'ny Tompo.
36 Ary tany Jopa nisy vehivavy mpianatra atao hoe Tabita, izany hoe, raha adika, Dorkasyt; ary be ny asa soa sy ny fiantrana izay nataon'izany vehivavy izany.37 Ary narary izy tamin'izany andro izany, ka dia maty; ary rehefa nampandroiny ny faty, dia napetrany tao an-trano ambony.38 Ary satria Lyda akaikin'i Jopa, ary ny mpianatra nandre fa efa tonga ao Petera, dia naniraka roa lahy izy hangataka azy hoe: Aza misalasala hankatỳ aminay.39 Dia nitsangana Petera ka nandeha niaraka taminy. Ary nony tonga izy, dia nentiny tany an-trano ambony; ary ny mpitondratena rehetra nitsangana teo anilany ka nitomany sady nampiseho ny akanjo sy lamba izay nozairin'i Dorkasy fony fahavelony.40 Ary navoak'i Petera avokoa izy rehetra, dia nandohalika izy ka nivavaka; ary nitodika nanatrika ny faty izy ka nanao hoe: Ry Tabita, mitsangàna. Dia nahirany ny masony; ary raha nahita an'i Petera izy, dia niarina.41 Ary Petera nanolo-tanana azy ka nanangana azy; ary rehefa niantso ny olona masina sy ny mpitondratena izy, dia nanolotra azy velona.42 Ary dia fantatra eran'i Jopa izany, ka maro no nino ny Tompo.

43 Ary Petera nitoetra andro maromaro tany Jopa tao amin'i Simona mpandon-koditra.

Acts 9

1 But Saul, yet breathing threatening and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,2 and asked of him letters to Damascus unto the synagogues, that if he found any that were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.3 And as he journeyed, it came to pass that he drew nigh unto Damascus: and suddenly there shone round about him a light out of heaven:4 and he fell upon the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest:6 but rise, and enter into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.7 And the men that journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing the voice, but beholding no man.8 And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing; and they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.9 And he was three days without sight, and did neither eat nor drink.10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and the Lord said unto him in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.11 And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for one named Saul, a man of Tarsus: for behold, he prayeth;12 and he hath seen a man named Ananias coming in, and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight.13 But Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many of this man, how much evil he did to thy saints at Jerusalem:14 and here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call upon thy name.15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles and kings, and the children of Israel:16 for I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name’s sake.17 And Ananias departed, and entered into the house; and laying his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, who appeared unto thee in the way which thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Spirit.18 And straightway there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he received his sight; and he arose and was baptized;19 and he took food and was strengthened. And he was certain days with the disciples that were at Damascus.20 And straightway in the synagogues he proclaimed Jesus, that he is the Son of God.21 And all that heard him were amazed, and said, Is not this he that in Jerusalem made havoc of them that called on this name? and he had come hither for this intent, that he might bring them bound before the chief priests.22 But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews that dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.23 And when many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel together to kill him:24 but their plot became known to Saul. And they watched the gates also day and night that they might kill him:25 but his disciples took him by night, and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.26 And when he was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: and they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Jesus.28 And he was with them going in and going out at Jerusalem,29 preaching boldly in the name of the Lord: and he spake and disputed against the Grecian Jews; but they were seeking to kill him.30 And when the brethren knew it, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.31 So the church throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria had peace, being edified; and, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, was multiplied.32 And it came to pass, as Peter went throughout all parts, he came down also to the saints that dwelt at Lydda.33 And there he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had kept his bed eight years; for he was palsied.34 And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise and make thy bed. And straightway he arose.35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and in Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.36 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.37 And it came to pass in those days, that she fell sick, and died: and when they had washed her, they laid her in an upper chamber.38 And as Lydda was nigh unto Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men unto him, entreating him, Delay not to come on unto us.39 And Peter arose and went with them. And when he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down and prayed; and turning to the body, he said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and when she saw Peter, she sat up.41 And he gave her his hand, and raised her up; and calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive.42 And it became known throughout all Joppa: and many believed on the Lord.43 And it came to pass, that he abode many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner.
