2 — Atti degli Apostoli

1And when the days of the Pentecost were accomplished, they were all together in one place:Sul finire de' giorni della Pentecoste stavano tutti insieme nel medesimo luogo:AND vvhen the daies of Pentecost vvere accomplished, they vvere al together in one place:Et cum complerentur dies Pentecostes, erant omnes pariter in eodem loco: 2And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming: and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.E venne di repente dal cielo un suono, come se levato si fosse un vento gagliardo, e riempie tutta la casa, dove abitavano.and sodenly there vvas made a sound from heauen, as of a vehemēt vvinde cōming, & it filled the whole house vvhere they vvere sitting.et factus est repente de cælo sonus, tamquam advenientis spiritus vehementis, et replevit totam domum ubi erant sedentes. 3And there appeared to them parted tongues, as it were of fire: and it sat upon every one of them.E apparvero ad essi delle lingue bipartite come di fuoco, e si posò sopra ciascheduno di loro.And there appeared to them parted tonges as it were of fire, and it sate vpon euery one of them:Et apparuerunt illis dispertitæ linguæ tamquam ignis, seditque supra singulos eorum: 4And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost: and they began to speak with divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak.E furon tutti ripieni di Spirito santo, e principiarono a parlare varj linguaggi, secondo che lo Spirito santo dava ad essi di favellare.and they vvere al replenished vvith the HOLY GHOST, and they began to speake vvith diuerse tonges, according as the HOLY GHOST gaue them to speake.et repleti sunt omnes Spiritu Sancto, et cœperunt loqui variis linguis, prout Spiritus Sanctus dabat eloqui illis. 5Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem, Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.Or abitavano in Gerusalemme degli Ebrei, uomini religiosi, di tutte le nazioni, che sono sotto del cielo.And there vvere dvvelling at Hierusalē Ievves, deuout men of euery nation that is vnder heauen.Erant autem in Jerusalem habitantes Judæi, viri religiosi ex omni natione quæ sub cælo est. 6And when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded in mind, because that every man heard them speak in his own tongue.E divolgatasi una tal voce, si raunò molta gente, e rimase attonita, perché ciascheduno gli udiva parlare nella sua propria lingua.And vvhen this voice vvas made, the multitude came together, and vvas astonied in minde, because euery man heard them speake in his ovvne tongue.Facta autem hac voce, convenit multitudo, et mente confusa est, quoniam audiebat unusquisque lingua sua illos loquentes.

7And they were all amazed, and wondered, saying: Behold, are not all these that speak Galileans?E si stupivano tutti, e facevan le meraviglie, dicendo: Non son eglino costoro, che parlano, Galilei tutti quanti?And they vvere al amased, and marueled saying, Are not, lo, al these that speake, Galileans,Stupebant autem omnes, et mirabantur, dicentes: Nonne ecce omnes isti qui loquuntur, Galilæi sunt ? 8And how have we heard, every man our own tongue wherein we were born?E come mai abbiamo udito ciascheduno di noi il nostro linguaggio, nel qual siamo nati?and hovv haue vve heard' eche man our ovvne tongue vvherein vve vvere borne?et quomodo nos audivimus unusquisque linguam nostram in qua nati sumus ? 9Parthians and Medes and Elamites and inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,Parti, e Medi, ed Elamiti, e abitatori della Mesopotamia, della Giudea, e della Cappadocia, del Ponto, e dell'Asia,Parthians, and Medians, and Elamites, and that inhabite Meso potámia, Ievvrie, and Cappadocia, Pontus, and Asia,Parthi, et Medi, et Ælamitæ, et qui habitant Mespotamiam, Judæam, et Cappadociam, Pontum, et Asiam, 10Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome,Della Frigia, e della Panfilia, dell'Egitto, e de' paesi della Libia, che è intorno a Cirene, e pellegrini Romani.Phrygia, and Pamphilia, Aegypt and the partes of Lybia that is about Cyrénee, and strangers of Rome,Phrygiam, et Pamphyliam, Ægyptum, et partes Libyæ quæ est circa Cyrenen: et advenæ Romani, 11Jews also, and proselytes, Cretes, and Arabians: we have heard them speak in our own tongues the wonderful works of God.Tanto Giudei, come Proseliti, Cretensi ed Arabi abbiamo udito costoro discorrere nelle nostre lingue delle grandezze di Dio.Ievves also, and Proselytes, Cretensians, and Arabians: Vve haue heard' them speake in our ovvne tonges the great vvorkes of God.Judæi quoque, et Proselyti, Cretes, et Arabes: audivimus eos loquentes nostris linguis magnalia Dei. 12And they were all astonished, and wondered, saying one to another: What meaneth this?E tutti si stupivano, ed eran pieni di meraviglia dicendo l'uno all'altro: Che sarà mai questo?And they vvere al astonied, and marueled, saying one to an other, Vvhat meaneth this?Stupebant autem omnes, et mirabantur ad invicem, dicentes: Quidnam vult hoc esse ? 13But others mocking, said: These men are full of new wine.Altri poi facendosi beffe dicevano: Sono pieni di vino dolce.But others deriding said, That these are ful of nevv vvine.Alii autem irridentes dicebant: Quia musto pleni sunt isti. 14But Peter standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and spoke to them: Ye men of Judea, and all you that dwell in Jerusalem, be this known to you and with your ears receive my words.Ma levatosi su Pietro con gli undici alzò la voce, e disse loro: Uomini Giudei, e voi tutti, che abitate Gerusalemme, sia noto a voi questo, e aprite le orecchie alle mie parole.But Peter standing vvith the Eleuen, lifted vp his voice, and spake to them, Ye men, Ievves, and al you that dvvel in Hierusalem, be this knovven to you, and vvith your eares receiue my vvordes.Stans autem Petrus cum undecim, levavit vocem suam, et locutus est eis: Viri Judæi, et qui habitatis Jerusalem universi, hoc vobis notum sit, et auribus percipite verba mea.

15For these are not drunk, as you suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day:Imperocché nun sono costoro, come voi vi pensate, ubbriachi, mentre è la terza ora del dì:For these are not drunke, as you suppose, vvhereas it is the third houre of the day:Non enim, sicut vos æstimatis, hi ebrii sunt, cum sit hora diei tertia: 16But this is that which was spoken of by the prophet Joel:Ma questo è quello, che fu detto dal profeta Gioele:But this is it that vvas said by the Prophet Ioël,sed hoc est quod dictum est per prophetam Joël: 17And it shall come to pass, in the last days, (saith the Lord), 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.Avverrà negli ultimi giorni (dice il Signore) che io spanderò il mio spirito sopra tutti gli uomini: e profeteranno i vostri figliuoli, e le vostre figliuole: e la vostra gioventù vedrà delle visioni, e i vostri vecchi sogneranno de' sogni.And it shal be, in the last daies (saith our Lord) of my Spirit I vvil povvre out vpon al flesh: and your sonnes and your daughters shal prophecie, and your yong men shal see visions, and your auncients shal dreame dreames.Et erit in novissimis diebus, dicit Dominus, / effundam de Spiritu meo super omnem carnem: / et prophetabunt filii vestri et filiæ vestræ, / et juvenes vestri visiones videbunt, / et seniores vestri somnia somniabunt. 18And upon my servants indeed and upon my handmaids will I pour out in those days of my spirit: and they shall prophesy.E sopra i miei servi, e sopra le mie serve spanderò in que' giorni il mio spirito, e profeteranno:And vpon my seruants truely, and vpon my handmaides vvil I povvre out in those daies, of my Spirit, and they shal prophecie:Et quidem super servos meos, et super ancillas meas, / in diebus illis effundam de Spiritu meo, / et prophetabunt: 19And I will shew wonders in the heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath: blood and fire, and vapour of smoke.E farò de' prodigj su in cielo, e de' segni giù nella terra, sangue, e fuoco, e vapore di fumo.and I vvil giue vvonders in the heauen aboue, and signes in the earth beneath, bloud, and fire, and vapour of smoke.et dabo prodigia in cælo sursum, / et signa in terra deorsum, sanguinem, et ignem, et vaporem fumi: 20The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the great and manifest day of the Lord shall come.Il sole si cangerà in tenebre, e la luna in sangue, prima che giunga il giorno grande, e illustre del Signore.The sunne shal be turned into darkenes, and the moone into bloud, before the great and manifest day of our Lord doth come.sol convertetur in tenebras, / et luna in sanguinem, / antequam veniat dies Domini magnus et manifestus.

21And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.E avverrà, che chiunque avrà invocato il nome del Signore, sarà salvo.And it shal be, euery one vvhosoeuer calleth vpon the name of our Lord, shal be saued.Et erit: omnis quicumque invocaverit nomen Domini, salvus erit. 22Ye men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him, in the midst of you, as you also know:Uomini Israeliti, udite queste parole: Gesù Nazareno, uomo, cui Dio ha renduto irrefragabile testimonianza tra di voi per mezzo delle opere grandi, e de' prodigj, e de' miracoli, i quali per mezzo di lui fece Dio su gli occhi vostri, come voi stessi sapete:Ye men of Israël heare these vvordes, IESVS of Nazareth a man approued of God among you, by miracles and vvonders and signes vvhich God did by him in the middes of you, as you knovv:Viri Israëlitæ, audite verba hæc: Jesum Nazarenum, virum approbatum a Deo in vobis, virtutibus, et prodigiis, et signis, quæ fecit Deus per illum in medio vestri, sicut et vos scitis: 23This same being delivered up, by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, you by the hands of wicked men have crucified and slain.Questi per determinato consiglio, e prescienza di Dio essendo stato tradito, voi trafiggendolo per le mani degli empj lo uccideste:this same, by the determinate counsel and prescience of God being deliuered, you by the handes of vvicked men haue crucified and slaine.hunc, definito consilio et præscientia Dei traditum, per manus iniquorum affligentes interemistis: 24Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the sorrows of hell, as it was impossible that he should be holden by it.Cui Dio risuscitò, sciolto avendolo dai dolori dell'inferno, siccome era impossibile, che da questo fosse egli ritenuto.vvhom God hath raised vp loosing the sorovves of hel, according as it vvas impossible that he should be holden of it.quem Deus suscitavit, solutis doloribus inferni, juxta quod impossibile erat teneri illum ab eo. 25For David saith concerning him: I foresaw the Lord before my face: because he is at my right hand, that I may not be moved.Imperocché di lui dice Davidde: Io antivedeva sempre il Signore dinanzi a me: perché egli sta alla mia destra, affinchè io non sia commosso:For Dauid saith concerning him, I foresavv the Lord in my sight alvvaies: because he is at my right hand that I be not moued.David enim dicit in eum: Providebam Dominum in conspectu meo semper: / quoniam a dextris est mihi, ne commovear:

26For this my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.Per questo rallegrossi il mio cuore, ed esultò la mia lingua, e di più la mia carne riposerà sulla speranza,For this, my hart hath been glad and my tongue hath reioyced: moreouer my flesh also shal rest in hope.propter hoc lætatum est cor meum, et exsultavit lingua mea, / insuper et caro mea requiescet in spe: 27Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell: nor suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.Che tu non abbandonerai l'anima mia nell'inferno, né permetterai, che il tuo Santo vegga la corruzione.Because thou vvilt not leaue my soul in hel, nor giue thy Holy one to see corruption.quoniam non derelinques animam meam in inferno, / nec dabis sanctum tuum videre corruptionem. 28Thou hast made known to me the ways of life: thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.Mi insegnanti le vie della via: e mi ricolmerai di allegrezza colla tua presenza.Thou hast made knovven to me the vvaies of life: thou shalt make me ful of ioyfulnes vvith thy face.Notas mihi fecisti vias vitæ: / et replebis me jucunditate cum facie tua. 29Ye men, brethren, let me freely speak to you of the patriarch David: that he died and was buried; and his sepulchre is with us to this present day.Fratelli, sia lecito di dire liberamente con voi del patriarca Davidde, che egli morì, e fu sepolto: e il suo sepolcro e presso di noi sino al dì d'oggi.Ye men, brethren, let me boldly speake to you of the Patriarch Dauid: that he died, and vvas buried: and his sepulchre is vvith vs vntil this present day.Viri fratres, liceat audenter dicere ad vos de patriarcha David, quoniam defunctus est, et sepultus: et sepulchrum ejus est apud nos usque in hodiernum diem. 30Whereas therefore he was a prophet and knew that God hath sworn to him with an oath, that of the fruit of his loins one should sit upon his throne.Essendo egli adunque profeta, e sapendo, che Dio promesso avevagli con giuramento, che uno della sua stirpe doveva sedere sopra il suo trono,Vvhereas therfore he vvas a Prophet, and knevv that by an othe God had svvorne to him that of the fruite of his loynes there should sit vpon his seate:Propheta igitur cum esset, et sciret quia jurejurando jurasset illi Deus de fructu lumbi ejus sedere super sedem ejus: 31Foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ. For neither was he left in hell: neither did his flesh see corruption.Profeticamente disse della risurrezione del Cristo, che egli non fa abbandonato nell'inferno, né la carne di lui vide la corruzione.forseeing he spake of the resurrection of Christ, for neither vvas he left in hel, neither did his flesh see corruption.providens locutus est de resurrectione Christi, quia neque derelictus est in inferno, neque caro ejus vidit corruptionem.

32This Jesus hath God raised again, whereof all we are witnesses.Questo Gesù lo risuscitò Iddio, della qual cosa siamo testimoni tutti noi.This IESVS hath God raised againe, vvhereof al vve are vvitnesses.Hunc Jesum resuscitavit Deus, cujus omnes nos testes sumus. 33Being exalted therefore by the right hand of God and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath poured forth this which you see and hear.Esaltato egli adunque alla destra di Dio, e ricevuta dal Padre la promessa dello Spirito santo, lo ha diffuso, quale voi lo vedete, e lo udite.Being exalted therfore by the right hand of God, and hauing receiued of his father the promisse of the holy Ghost, he hath povvred out this vvhom' you see and heare.Dextera igitur Dei exaltatus, et promissione Spiritus Sancti accepta a Patre, effudit hunc, quem vos videtis et auditis. 34For David ascended not into heaven; but he himself said: The Lord said to my Lord: Sit thou on my right hand,Imperocché non salì Davidde al cielo: eppure egli disse: Ha detto il Signore al mio Signore, siedi alla mia destra,For Dauid ascended not into heauen: but he saith, Our Lord hath said to my Lord, sit on my right hand,Non enim David ascendit in cælum: dixit autem ipse: Dixit Dominus Domino meo: / Sede a dextris meis, 35Until I make thy enemies thy footstool.Sino a tanto che io ponga i tuoi nemici sgabello a' tuoi piedi.vntil I make thine enemies the footestoole of thy feete.donec ponam inimicos tuos / scabellum pedum tuorum. 36Therefore let all the house of Israel know most certainly that God hath made both Lord and Christ, this same Jesus, whom you have crucified.Sappia adunque indubitamente tutta la casa d'Israele, che Dio ha constituito Signore, e Cristo questo Gesù, il quale voi avete crocifisso.Therfore let al the house of Israël know most certainly that God hath made him both Lord, and CHRIST, this IESVS, vvhom you haue crucified.Certissime sciat ergo omnis domus Israël, quia et Dominum eum et Christum fecit Deus hunc Jesum, quem vos crucifixistis. 37Now when they had heard these things, they had compunction in their heart and said to Peter and to the rest of the apostles: What shall we do, men and brethren?Udite queste cose, si compunser di cuore e dissero a Pietro, e agli altri Apostoli: Fratelli, che dobbiam noi fare?And hearing these things, they were compuncte in hart, and said to Peter and to the rest of the Apostles, Vvhat shal vve doe men, brethren?His autem auditis, compuncti sunt corde, et dixerunt ad Petrum et ad reliquos Apostolos: Quid faciemus, viri fratres ?

38But Peter said to them: Do penance: and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sins. And you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.E Pietro disse loro: Fate penitenza, e si battezzi ciascheduno di voi nel nome di Gesù Cristo per la remissione de' vostri peccati: e riceverete il dono dello Spirito santo.But Peter said to them, Doe penance, and be euery one of you baptized in the name of IESVS CHRIST for remission of your sinnes: and you shal receiue the gift of the holy Ghost.Petrus vero ad illos: Pœnitentiam, inquit, agite, et baptizetur unusquisque vestrum in nomine Jesu Christi in remissionem peccatorum vestrorum: et accipietis donum Spiritus Sancti. 39For the promise is to you and to your children and to all that are far off, whomsoever the Lord our God shall call.Imperocché per voi sta la promessa, e pe' vostri figliuoli, e per tutti i lontani, quantunque ne chiamerà il Signore Dio nostro.For to you is the promisse, and to your children, and to al that are farre of, vvhomsoeuer the Lord our God shal call.Vobis enim est repromissio, et filiis vestris, et omnibus qui longe sunt, quoscumque advocaverit Dominus Deus noster. 40And with very many other words did he testify and exhort them, saying: Save yourselves from this perverse generation.E con altre moltissime parole gli persuadeva, e gli ammoniva, dicendo: Salvatevi da questa perversa generazione.Vvith very many other vvordes also did he testifie, and exhorted them, saying, Saue your selues from this peruerse generation.Aliis etiam verbis plurimis testificatus est, et exhortabatur eos, dicens: Salvamini a generatione ista prava. 41They therefore that received his word were baptized: and there were added in that day about three thousand souls.Quegli adunque, che ricevettero la parola di lui, furon battezzati, e si aggiunsero in quel giorno circa tremila anime.They therfore that receiued his vvord, vvere baptized: and there vvere added in that day about three thousand soules.Qui ergo receperunt sermonem ejus, baptizati sunt: et appositæ sunt in die illa animæ circiter tria millia. 42And they were persevering in the doctrine of the apostles and in the communication of the breaking of bread and in prayers.Ed erano assidui alle istruzioni degli Apostoli, e alla comune frazione del pane, e nella orazione.And they vvere perseuéring in the doctrine of the Apostles, and in the communication of the breaking of bread, and praiers.Erant autem perseverantes in doctrina Apostolorum, et communicatione fractionis panis, et orationibus. 43And fear came upon every soul. Many wonders also and signs were done by the apostles in Jerusalem: and there was great fear in all.E tutta la gente era in apprensioni: e molti, segni, e miracoli si facevano dagli Apostoli in Gerusalemme, e tutti stavano in gran timore.And feare came vpon euery soul: many vvonders also and signes vvere done by the Apostles in Hierusalem, and there vvas great feare in al.Fiebat autem omni animæ timor: multa quoque prodigia et signa per Apostolos in Jerusalem fiebant, et metus erat magnus in universis.

44And all they that believed were together and had all things common.E tutti i credenti erano uniti, e avevan tutto comune.Al they also that beleeued, vvere together, and had al things cōmon.Omnes etiam qui credebant, erant pariter, et habebant omnia communia. 45Their possessions and goods they sold and divided them to all, according as every one had need.E vendevano le possessioni, e i beni, e distribuivan il prezzo a tutti secondo il bisogno di ciascheduno.Their possessions and substance they sold, and deuided them to al, according as euery one had neede.Possessiones et substantias vendebant, et dividebant illa omnibus, prout cuique opus erat. 46And continuing daily with one accord in the temple and breaking bread from house to house, they took their meat with gladness and simplicity of heart:E ogni giorno trattenendosi lungamente tutti d'accordo nel tempio, e spezzando il pane per le case prendevan cibo con gaudio, e semplicità di cuore,Daily also continuing vvith one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they tooke their meate vvith ioy and simplicitie of hart:Quotidie quoque perdurantes unanimiter in templo, et frangentes circa domos panem, sumebant cibum cum exsultatione et simplicitate cordis, 47Praising God and having favour with all the people. And the Lord increased daily together such as should be saved.Lodando Dio, ed essendo ben veduti da tutto il popolo. Il Signore poi aggiungeva alla stessa società ogni giorno gente, che si salvasse.praising God, and hauing grace vvith al the people. And our Lord increased them that should be saued, daily together.collaudantes Deum et habentes gratiam ad omnem plebem. Dominus autem augebat qui salvi fierent quotidie in idipsum.
