Acts 16

Berean Standard Bible
Reina-Valera 1909
1Paul came to Derbe and then to Lystra, where he found a disciple named Timothy, the son of a believing Jewish woman and a Greek father.
1DESPUÉS llegó á Derbe, y á Listra: y he aquí, estaba allí un discípulo llamado Timoteo, hijo de una mujer Judía fiel, mas de padre Griego.
2The brothers in Lystra and Iconium spoke well of him.
2De éste daban buen testimonio los hermanos que estaban en Listra y en Iconio.
3Paul wanted Timothy to accompany him, so he took him and circumcised him on account of the Jews in that area, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
3Este quiso Pablo que fuese con él; y tomándole, le circuncidó por causa de los Judíos que estaban en aquellos lugares; porque todos sabían que su padre era Griego.
4As they went from town to town, they delivered the decisions handed down by the apostles and elders in Jerusalem for the people to obey.
4Y como pasaban por las ciudades, les daban que guardasen los decretos que habían sido determinados por los apóstoles y los ancianos que estaban en Jerusalem.
5So the churches were strengthened in the faith and grew daily in numbers.
5Así que, las iglesias eran confirmadas en fe, y eran aumentadas en número cada día.
6After the Holy Spirit had prevented them from speaking the word in the province of Asia, they traveled through the region of Phrygia and Galatia.
6Y pasando á Phrygia y la provincia de Galacia, les fué prohibido por el Espíritu Santo hablar la palabra en Asia.
7And when they came to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not permit them.
7Y como vinieron á Misia, tentaron de ir á Bithynia; mas el Espíritu no les dejó.
8So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas.
8Y pasando á Misia, descendieron á Troas.
9During the night, Paul had a vision of a man of Macedonia standing and pleading with him, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.”
9Y fué mostrada á Pablo de noche una visión: Un varón Macedonio se puso delante, rogándole, y diciendo: Pasa á Macedonia, y ayúdanos.
10As soon as Paul had seen the vision, we got ready to leave for Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.
10Y como vió la visión, luego procuramos partir á Macedonia, dando por cierto que Dios nos llamaba para que les anunciásemos el evangelio.
11We sailed from Troas straight to Samothrace, and the following day on to Neapolis.
11Partidos pues de Troas, vinimos camino derecho á Samotracia, y el día siguiente á Neápolis;
12From there we went to the Roman colony of Philippi, the leading city of that district of Macedonia. And we stayed there several days.
12Y de allí á Filipos, que es la primera ciudad de la parte de Macedonia, y una colonia; y estuvimos en aquella ciudad algunos días.
13On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate along the river, where it was customary to find a place of prayer. After sitting down, we spoke to the women who had gathered there.
13Y un día de sábado salimos de la puerta junto al río, donde solía ser la oración; y sentándonos, hablamos á las mujeres que se habían juntado.
14Among those listening was a woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth from the city of Thyatira, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul’s message.
14Entonces una mujer llamada Lidia, que vendía púrpura en la ciudad de Tiatira, temerosa de Dios, estaba oyendo; el corazón de la cual abrió el Señor para que estuviese atenta á lo que Pablo decía.
15And when she and her household had been baptized, she urged us, “If you consider me a believer in the Lord, come and stay at my house.” And she persuaded us.
15Y cuando fué bautizada, y su familia, nos rogó, diciendo: Si habéis juzgado que yo sea fiel al Señor, entrad en mi casa, y posad: y constriñónos.
16One day as we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave girl with a spirit of divination, who earned a large income for her masters by fortune-telling.
16Y aconteció, que yendo nosotros á la oración, una muchacha que tenía espíritu pitónico, nos salió al encuentro, la cual daba grande ganancia á sus amos adivinando.
17This girl followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who are proclaiming to you the way of salvation!”
17Esta, siguiendo á Pablo y á nosotros, daba voces, diciendo: Estos hombres son siervos del Dios Alto, los cuales os anuncian el camino de salud.
18She continued this for many days. Eventually Paul grew so aggravated that he turned and said to the spirit, “In the name of Jesus Christ I command you to come out of her!” And the spirit left her at that very moment.
18Y esto hacía por muchos días; mas desagradando á Pablo, se volvió y dijo al espíritu: Te mando en el nombre de Jesucristo, que salgas de ella. Y salió en la misma hora.
19When the girl’s owners saw that their hope of making money was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them before the authorities in the marketplace.
19Y viendo sus amos que había salido la esperanza de su ganancia, prendieron á Pablo y á Silas, y los trajeron al foro, al magistrado;
20They brought them to the magistrates and said, “These men are Jews and are throwing our city into turmoil
20Y presentándolos á los magistrados, dijeron: Estos hombres, siendo Judíos, alborotan nuestra ciudad,
21by promoting customs that are unlawful for us Romans to adopt or practice.”
21Y predican ritos, los cuales no nos es lícito recibir ni hacer, pues somos Romanos.
22The crowd joined in the attack against Paul and Silas, and the magistrates ordered that they be stripped and beaten with rods.
22Y agolpóse el pueblo contra ellos: y los magistrados rompiéndoles sus ropas, les mandaron azotar con varas.
23And after striking them with many blows, they threw them into prison and ordered the jailer to guard them securely.
23Y después que los hubieron herido de muchos azotes, los echaron en la cárcel, mandando al carcelero que los guardase con diligencia:
24On receiving this order, he placed them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks.
24El cual, recibido este mandamiento, los metió en la cárcel de más adentro; y les apretó los pies en el cepo.
25About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.
25Mas á media noche, orando Pablo y Silas, cantaban himnos á Dios: y los que estaban presos los oían.
26Suddenly a strong earthquake shook the foundations of the prison. At once all the doors flew open and everyone’s chains came loose.
26Entonces fué hecho de repente un gran terremoto, de tal manera que los cimientos de la cárcel se movían; y luego todas las puertas se abrieron, y las prisiones de todos se soltaron.
27When the jailer woke up and saw the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, presuming that the prisoners had escaped.
27Y despertado el carcelero, como vió abiertas las puertas de la cárcel, sacando la espada se quería matar, pensando que los presos se habían huído.
28But Paul called out in a loud voice, “Do not harm yourself! We are all here!”
28Mas Pablo clamó á gran voz, diciendo: No te hagas ningún mal; que todos estamos aquí.
29Calling for lights, the jailer rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas.
29El entonces pidiendo luz, entró dentro, y temblando, derribóse á los pies de Pablo y de Silas;
30Then he brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
30Y sacándolos fuera, les dice: Señores, ¿qué es menester que yo haga para ser salvo?
31They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, you and your household.”
31Y ellos dijeron: Cree en el Señor Jesucristo, y serás salvo tú, y tu casa.
32Then Paul and Silas spoke the word of the Lord to him and to everyone in his house.
32Y le hablaron la palabra del Señor, y á todos los que estaban en su casa.
33At that hour of the night, the jailer took them and washed their wounds. And without delay, he and all his household were baptized.
33Y tomándolos en aquella misma hora de la noche, les lavó los azotes; y se bautizó luego él, y todos los suyos.
34Then he brought them into his home and set a meal before them. So he and all his household rejoiced that they had come to believe in God.
34Y llevándolos á su casa, les puso la mesa: y se gozó de que con toda su casa había creído á Dios.
35When daylight came, the magistrates sent their officers with the order: “Release those men.”
35Y como fué de día, los magistrados enviaron los alguaciles, diciendo: Deja ir á aquellos hombres.
36The jailer informed Paul: “The magistrates have sent orders to release you. Now you may go on your way in peace.”
36Y el carcelero hizo saber estas palabras á Pablo: Los magistrados han enviado á decir que seáis sueltos: así que ahora salid, é id en paz.
37But Paul said to the officers, “They beat us publicly without a trial and threw us into prison, even though we are Roman citizens. And now do they want to send us away secretly? Absolutely not! Let them come themselves and escort us out!”
37Entonces Pablo les dijo: Azotados públicamente sin ser condenados, siendo hombres Romanos, nos echaron en la cárcel; y ¿ahora nos echan encubiertamente? No, de cierto, sino vengan ellos y sáquennos.
38So the officers relayed this message to the magistrates, who were alarmed to hear that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens.
38Y los alguaciles volvieron á decir á los magistrados estas palabras: y tuvieron miedo, oído que eran Romanos.
39They came to appease them and led them out, requesting that they leave the city.
39Y viniendo, les rogaron; y sacándolos, les pidieron que se saliesen de la ciudad.
40After Paul and Silas came out of the prison, they went to Lydia’s house to see the brothers and encourage them. Then they left the city.
40Entonces salidos de la cárcel, entraron en casa de Lidia; y habiendo visto á los hermanos, los consolaron, y se salieron.
