Revised Young's Literal Translation
New Testament
| 11:1 | And the apostles and the brethren who are in Judea heard that also the nations did receive the word of God, |
| 11:2 | and when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision were contending with him, |
| 11:3 | saying -- 'Unto men uncircumcised you did go in, and did eat with them!' |
| 11:4 | And Peter having begun, did expound to them in order saying, |
| 11:5 | 'I was in the city of Joppa praying, and I saw in a trance a vision, a certain vessel coming down, as a great sheet by four corners being let down out of the heaven, and it came unto me; |
| 11:6 | at which having looked stedfastly, I was considering, and I saw the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of heaven; |
| 11:7 | and I heard a voice saying to me, Having risen, Peter, slay and eat; |
| 11:8 | and I said, Not so, Lord; because anything common or unclean has at no time entered into my mouth; |
| 11:9 | and a voice did answer me a second time out of the heaven, What God did cleanse, you -- declare not you common. |
| 11:10 | 'And this happened thrice, and again was all drawn up to the heaven, |
| 11:11 | and, lo, immediately, three men stood at the house in which I was, having been sent from Caesarea unto me, |
| 11:12 | and the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting, and these six brethren also went with me, and we did enter into the house of the man, |
| 11:13 | he declared also to us how he saw the messenger in his house standing, and saying to him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter, |
| 11:14 | who shall speak sayings by which you shall be saved, you and all your house. |
| 11:15 | 'And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit did fall upon them, even as also upon us in the beginning, |
| 11:16 | and I remembered the saying of the Lord, how he said, John indeed did baptize with water, and you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit; |
| 11:17 | if then the equal gift God did give to them as also to us, having believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ, I -- how was I able to withstand God?' |
| 11:18 | And they, having heard these things, were silent, and were glorifying God, saying, 'Then, indeed, also to the nations did God give the reformation to life.' |
| 11:19 | Those, indeed, therefore, having been scattered abroad, from the tribulation that came after Stephen, went through unto Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to none except to Jews only; |
| 11:20 | and there were certain of them men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who having entered into Antioch, were speaking unto the Hellenists, proclaiming good news -- the Lord Jesus, |
| 11:21 | and the hand of the Lord was with them, a great number also, having believed, did turn unto the Lord. |
| 11:22 | And the account was heard in the ears of the assembly that is in Jerusalem concerning them, and they sent forth Barnabas to go through unto Antioch, |
| 11:23 | who, having come, and having seen the grace of God, was glad, and was exhorting all with purpose of heart to cleave to the Lord, |
| 11:24 | because he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit, and of faith, and a great multitude was added to the Lord. |
| 11:25 | And Barnabas went forth to Tarsus, to seek for Saul, |
| 11:26 | and having found him, he brought him to Antioch, and it came to pass that they a whole year did assemble together in the assembly, and taught a great multitude, the disciples also were divinely called first in Antioch Christians. |
| 11:27 | And in those days there came from Jerusalem prophets to Antioch, |
| 11:28 | and one of them, by name Agabus, having stood up, did signify through the Spirit a great dearth is about to be throughout all the world -- which also came to pass in the time of Claudius Caesar -- |
| 11:29 | and the disciples, according as any one was prospering, determined each of them to send for ministration to the brethren dwelling in Judea, |
| 11:30 | which also they did, having sent unto the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul. |
