World English Bible
Diodati Bibbia 1885
1He came to Derbe and Lystra; and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess who believed, but his father was a Greek.
1Or egli giunse in Derba, ed in Listra; ed ecco, quivi era un certo discepolo, chiamato per nome Timoteo, figliuol d'una donna Giudea fedele, ma di padre Greco;
2The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium gave a good testimony about him.
2del quale i fratelli, ch' erano in Listra, ed in Iconio, rendevan buona testimonianza.
3Paul wanted to have him go out with him, and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
3Costui volle Paolo che andasse seco; e presolo, lo circoncise, per cagion de' Giudei ch' erano in quei luoghi; perciocchè tutti sapevano che il padre d'esso era Greco.
4As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered the decrees to them to keep which had been ordained by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.
4E passando essi per le città, ordinavano loro d'osservar gli statuti determinati dagli apostoli, e dagli anziani, ch' erano in Gerusalemme.
5So the assemblies were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.
5Le chiese adunque erano confermate nella fede, e di giorno in giorno crescevano in numero.
6When they had gone through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.
6Poi, avendo traversata la Frigia, e il paese della Galazia, essendo divietati dallo Spirito Santo d'annunziar la parola in Asia,
7When they had come opposite Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit didn’t allow them.
7vennero in Misia, e tentavano d'andare in Bitinia; ma lo Spirito di Gesù nol permise loro.
8Passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
8E passata la Misia, discesero in Troas.
9A vision appeared to Paul in the night. There was a man of Macedonia standing, begging him and saying, “Come over into Macedonia and help us.”
9ED una visione apparve di notte a Paolo. Un uomo Macedone gli si presentò, pregandolo, e dicendo: Passa in Macedonia, e soccorrici.
10When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the Good News to them.
10E quando egli ebbe veduta quella visione, presto noi procacciammo di passare in Macedonia, tenendo per certo che il Signore ci avea chiamati là, per evangelizzare a que' popoli .
11Setting sail therefore from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis;
11E perciò, partendo di Troas, arrivammo per diritto corso in Samotracia, e il giorno seguente a Napoli;
12and from there to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the foremost of the district, a Roman colony. We were staying some days in this city.
12e di là a Filippi, ch'è la prima città di quella parte di Macedonia, ed è colonia; e dimorammo in quella città alquanti giorni.
13On the Sabbath day we went outside of the city by a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we sat down and spoke to the women who had come together.
13E nel giorno del sabato andammo fuor della città, presso del fiume, dove era il luogo ordinario dell 'orazione; e postici a sedere, parlavamo alle donne ch'erano quivi raunate.
14A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshiped God, heard us. The Lord opened her heart to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul.
14Ed una certa donna, chiamata per nome Lidia, mercatante di porpora, della città di Tiatiri, la qual serviva a Dio, stava ad ascoltare. E il Signore aperse il suo cuore, per attendere alle cose dette da Paolo.
15When she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay.” So she persuaded us.
15E, dopo che fu battezzata ella e la sua famiglia, ci pregò dicendo: Se voi mi avete giudicata esser fedele al Signore, entrate in casa mia, e dimorate vi . E ci fece forza.
16As we were going to prayer, a certain girl having a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by fortune telling.
16Or avvenne, come noi andavamo all'orazione, che noi incontrammo una fanticella, che avea uno spirito di Pitone, la quale con indovinare facea gran profitto a' suoi padroni.
17Following Paul and us, she cried out, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us a way of salvation!”
17Costei, messasi a seguitar Paolo e noi, gridava, dicendo: Questi uomini son servitori dell'Iddio altissimo, e vi annunziano la via della salute.
18She was doing this for many days. But Paul, becoming greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!” It came out that very hour.
18E fece questo per molti giorni; ma, essendo ne Paolo annoiato, si rivoltò, e disse allo spirito: Io ti comando, nel nome di Gesù Cristo, che tu esca fuor di lei. Ed egli uscì in quello stante.
19But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers.
19Or i padroni d'essa, veggendo che la speranza del lor guadagno era svanita, presero Paolo, e Sila, e li trassero alla corte a' rettori.
20When they had brought them to the magistrates, they said, “These men, being Jews, are agitating our city
20E presentatili a' pretori, dissero: Questi uomini turbano la nostra città; perciocchè son Giudei;
21and advocate customs which it is not lawful for us to accept or to observe, being Romans.”
21ed annunziano dei riti, i quali non è lecito a noi, che siam Romani, di ricevere, nè di osservare.
22The multitude rose up together against them and the magistrates tore their clothes from them, then commanded them to be beaten with rods.
22La moltitudine ancora si levò tutta insieme contro a loro; e i pretori, stracciate loro le vesti, comandarono che fosser frustati.
23When they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely.
23E dopo aver loro data una gran battitura, li misero in prigione, comandando al carceriere di guardarli sicuramente.
24Having received such a command, he threw them into the inner prison and secured their feet in the stocks.
24Il quale, ricevuto un tal comandamento, li mise nella prigione più addentro, e serrò loro i piedi ne' ceppi.
25But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
25Or in su la mezzanotte, Paolo e Sila, facendo orazione, cantavono inni a Dio; e i prigioni li udivano.
26Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s bonds were loosened.
26E di subito si fece un gran tremoto, talchè i fondamenti della prigione furono scrollati; e in quello stante tutte le porte si apersero, e i legami di tutti si sciolsero.
27The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
27E il carceriere, destatosi, e vedute le porte della prigione aperte, trasse fuori la spada, ed era per uccidersi, pensando che i prigioni se ne fosser fuggiti.
28But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, “Don’t harm yourself, for we are all here!”
28Ma Paolo gridò ad alta voce, dicendo: Non farti male alcuno; perciocchè noi siam tutti qui.
29He called for lights, sprang in, fell down trembling before Paul and Silas,
29Ed egli, chiesto un lume, saltò dentro; e tutto tremante, si gettò a' piedi di Paolo e di Sila.
30brought them out, and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
30E menatili fuori, disse: Signori, che mi conviene egli fare per esser salvato?
31They said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
31Ed essi dissero: Credi nel Signor Gesù Cristo, e sarai salvato tu, e la casa tua.
32They spoke the word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his house.
32Ed essi annunziarono la parola del Signore a lui, ed a tutti coloro ch'erano in casa sua.
33He took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes, and was immediately baptized, he and all his household.
33Ed egli, presili in quell'istessa ora della notte, lavò loro le piaghe. Poi in quell'istante fu battezzato egli, e tutti i suoi.
34He brought them up into his house and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly with all his household, having believed in God.
34Poi, menatili in casa sua, mise loro la tavola; e giubilava d'avere, con tutta la sua casa, creduto a Dio.
35But when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, “Let those men go.”
35Ora, come fu giorno, i pretori mandarono i sergenti a dire al carceriere: Lascia andar quegli uomini.
36The jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore come out and go in peace.”
36E il carceriere rapportò a Paolo queste parole, dicendo: I pretori hanno mandato a dire che siate liberati; ora dunque uscite, e andatevene in pace.
37But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us publicly without a trial, men who are Romans, and have cast us into prison! Do they now release us secretly? No, most certainly, but let them come themselves and bring us out!”
37Ma Paolo disse loro: Dopo averci pubblicamente battuti, senza essere stati condannati in giudicio, noi che siam Romani, ci hanno messi in prigione; ed ora celatamente ci mandano fuori! La cosa non andrà così ; anzi, vengano eglino stessi, e ci menino fuori.
38The sergeants reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Romans,
38E i sergenti rapportarono queste parole a' pretori; ed essi temettero, avendo inteso ch'erano Romani.
39and they came and begged them. When they had brought them out, they asked them to depart from the city.
39E vennero, e li pregarono di perdonar loro ; e menati li fuori, li richiesero d'uscir della città.
40They went out of the prison and entered into Lydia’s house. When they had seen the brothers, they encouraged them, then departed.
40Ed essi, usciti di prigione, entrarono in casa di Lidia; e, veduti i fratelli, li consolarono, e poi si dipartirono.
