Деян 15
Священное Писание (Восточный перевод), версия для Таджикистана
Совет в Иерусалиме
15 Из Иудеи в Антиохию пришли люди, которые стали учить братьев:
– Если вы не будете обрезаны по обряду, предписанному Мусо,[a] вы не можете быть спасены.
2 Это привело к разногласиям и горячему спору между ними с одной стороны и Павлусом и Варнавой – с другой. Тогда Павлусу и Варнаве поручили пойти вместе с несколькими другими верующими в Иерусалим и обсудить этот вопрос с посланниками Масеха и старейшинами. 3 Получив помощь от общины верующих, они пошли через Финикию и Сомарию, рассказывая там об обращении язычников. Эта весть вызывала у всех верующих большую радость.
4 В Иерусалиме они были приняты членами общины верующих, посланниками Масеха и старейшинами и рассказали им обо всём, что Всевышний совершил через них. 5 Но верующие, принадлежавшие к религиозной партии блюстителей Закона, говорили, что язычников следует обрезывать и требовать от них соблюдения Закона Мусо.
6 Посланники Масеха и старейшины собрались, чтобы рассмотреть этот вопрос. 7 После долгих обсуждений Петрус поднялся и сказал:
– Братья, как вы знаете, прошло уже много времени с того дня, как Всевышний выбрал из всех нас меня возвещать слово Радостной Вести другим народам, чтобы и они уверовали. 8 Всевышний знает сердца людей, и Он дал свидетельство того, что принимает и уверовавших из других народов, даровав им Святого Духа так же, как и нам. 9 Он не делает никакой разницы между нами и ими, потому что Он через веру очистил и их сердца! 10 Так зачем же вы испытываете Всевышнего, возлагая на шеи учеников бремя, которое не в состоянии были нести ни наши отцы, ни мы? 11 Ведь мы верим в то, что получаем спасение по благодати Повелителя Исо так же, как и они.
12 Тогда все затихли и стали слушать рассказ Варнавы и Павлуса о знамениях и чудесах, которые Всевышний совершил через них среди язычников. 13 Когда они закончили, Якуб[b] сказал:
– Братья, послушайте меня. 14 Шимон[c] рассказал нам о том, как Всевышний впервые решил составить из язычников народ для Себя. 15 Это в полном согласии с Книгой Пророков, где сказано:
16 «Затем Я возвращусь.
Трон Довуда – как разрушенный шатёр,
но Я восстановлю разрушенное
и воссоздам его,
17 чтобы остальные люди,
все народы, которые призваны быть Моими,
стали искать Вечного.
Так говорит Вечный,
18 Который объявил об этом издревле».[d]
19 Поэтому я считаю, что мы не должны создавать трудностей для людей из других народов, обращающихся ко Всевышнему. 20 Напротив, мы должны написать им письмо, предупредив лишь, чтобы они воздерживались от пищи, осквернённой тем, что она была принесена в жертву идолам, от разврата, от мяса удушенных животных и от крови.[e] 21 Ведь Закон Мусо, издавна возвещается в каждом городе и читается в молитвенных домах иудеев каждую субботу.
Письмо Совета к братьям из других народов
22 Посланники Масеха и старейшины вместе со всем собранием верующих решили выбрать несколько человек из своей среды и послать их с Павлусом и Варнавой в Антиохию. Они выбрали двух руководящих братьев: Иуду, которого ещё называли Бар-Сабба, и Сило. 23 С ними передали такое письмо:
«Ваши братья, посланники Масеха и старейшины, – братьям из других народов, находящимся в Антиохии, Сирии и Киликии.
Приветствуем вас!
24 До нас дошли слухи о том, что некоторые люди, пришедшие от нас, привели вас в замешательство своими словами и взволновали ваши умы, но мы ничего им не поручали. 25 Поэтому мы с общего согласия решили выбрать из нашей среды несколько человек и послать их к вам вместе с нашими дорогими братьями Варнавой и Павлусом, 26 которые рисковали своей жизнью ради имени нашего Повелителя Исо Масеха. 27 Мы посылаем к вам также Иуду и Сило, чтобы они на словах подтвердили то, что мы пишем. 28 Святой Дух и мы решили не обременять вас ничем, кроме следующих требований: 29 воздерживайтесь от пищи, принесённой в жертву идолам, от крови, от мяса удушенных животных и от всякого разврата. Если вы будете соблюдать это, то поступите правильно.
Всех благ».
30 Посланные отправились и пришли в Антиохию. Там они собрали общину верующих и вручили письмо. 31 Люди читали его и радовались ободряющей вести. 32 Иуда и Сило, которые сами были пророками, своими словами ободряли и воодушевляли братьев. 33-34 Они провели там некоторое время, и братья отпустили их с пожеланием мира тем, кто их послал.[f] 35 Павлус и Варнава остались в Антиохии, где они со многими другими братьями учили и возвещали слово о Повелителе Исо.
Разногласия между Павлусом и Варнавой
36 Несколько дней спустя Павлус предложил Варнаве:
– Давай посетим братьев во всех городах, где мы возвещали слово о Повелителе, и посмотрим, как у них идут дела.
37 Варнава хотел взять с собой Иохана, которого ещё называли Марком, 38 но Павлус не хотел брать с собой того, кто оставил их в Памфилии и не помог исполнить порученную им работу.
39 Разногласие по этому вопросу было столь острым, что они расстались. Варнава взял Марка и отплыл на Кипр, 40 а Павлус выбрал Сило и, будучи вверен братьями попечению Вечного Повелителя, отправился в путь. 41 Павлус проходил через Сирию и Киликию, утверждая общины верующих.

New International Version
The Council at Jerusalem
15 Certain people(A) came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching the believers:(B) “Unless you are circumcised,(C) according to the custom taught by Moses,(D) you cannot be saved.” 2 This brought Paul and Barnabas into sharp dispute and debate with them. So Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some other believers, to go up to Jerusalem(E) to see the apostles and elders(F) about this question. 3 The church sent them on their way, and as they traveled through Phoenicia(G) and Samaria, they told how the Gentiles had been converted.(H) This news made all the believers very glad. 4 When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and elders, to whom they reported everything God had done through them.(I)
5 Then some of the believers who belonged to the party(J) of the Pharisees(K) stood up and said, “The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to keep the law of Moses.”(L)
6 The apostles and elders met to consider this question. 7 After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: “Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe.(M) 8 God, who knows the heart,(N) showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them,(O) just as he did to us. 9 He did not discriminate between us and them,(P) for he purified their hearts by faith.(Q) 10 Now then, why do you try to test God(R) by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke(S) that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace(T) of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”
12 The whole assembly became silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul telling about the signs and wonders(U) God had done among the Gentiles through them.(V) 13 When they finished, James(W) spoke up. “Brothers,” he said, “listen to me. 14 Simon[a] has described to us how God first intervened to choose a people for his name from the Gentiles.(X) 15 The words of the prophets are in agreement with this, as it is written:
16 “‘After this I will return
and rebuild David’s fallen tent.
Its ruins I will rebuild,
and I will restore it,
17 that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord,
even all the Gentiles who bear my name,
says the Lord, who does these things’[b](Y)—
18 things known from long ago.[c](Z)
19 “It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God. 20 Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols,(AA) from sexual immorality,(AB) from the meat of strangled animals and from blood.(AC) 21 For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.”(AD)
The Council’s Letter to Gentile Believers
22 Then the apostles and elders,(AE) with the whole church, decided to choose some of their own men and send them to Antioch(AF) with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas (called Barsabbas) and Silas,(AG) men who were leaders among the believers. 23 With them they sent the following letter:
The apostles and elders, your brothers,
To the Gentile believers in Antioch,(AH) Syria(AI) and Cilicia:(AJ)
Greetings.(AK)
24 We have heard that some went out from us without our authorization and disturbed you, troubling your minds by what they said.(AL) 25 So we all agreed to choose some men and send them to you with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul— 26 men who have risked their lives(AM) for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas(AN) to confirm by word of mouth what we are writing. 28 It seemed good to the Holy Spirit(AO) and to us not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements: 29 You are to abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality.(AP) You will do well to avoid these things.
Farewell.
30 So the men were sent off and went down to Antioch, where they gathered the church together and delivered the letter. 31 The people read it and were glad for its encouraging message. 32 Judas and Silas,(AQ) who themselves were prophets,(AR) said much to encourage and strengthen the believers. 33 After spending some time there, they were sent off by the believers with the blessing of peace(AS) to return to those who had sent them. [34] [d] 35 But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, where they and many others taught and preached(AT) the word of the Lord.(AU)
Disagreement Between Paul and Barnabas
36 Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us go back and visit the believers in all the towns(AV) where we preached the word of the Lord(AW) and see how they are doing.” 37 Barnabas wanted to take John, also called Mark,(AX) with them, 38 but Paul did not think it wise to take him, because he had deserted them(AY) in Pamphylia and had not continued with them in the work. 39 They had such a sharp disagreement that they parted company. Barnabas took Mark and sailed for Cyprus, 40 but Paul chose Silas(AZ) and left, commended by the believers to the grace of the Lord.(BA) 41 He went through Syria(BB) and Cilicia,(BC) strengthening the churches.(BD)

The Jerusalem Council
15 (A)But some men came down from Judea and were teaching (B)the brothers, “Unless you are (C)circumcised (D)according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.” 2 And after Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and (E)debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and (F)some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem to (G)the apostles and the elders about this question. 3 So, (H)being sent on their way by the church, they passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, (I)describing in detail the conversion of the Gentiles, and (J)brought great joy to all (K)the brothers.[a] 4 (L)When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and (M)the apostles and the elders, and (N)they declared all that God had done with them. 5 But some believers who belonged to (O)the party of the Pharisees rose up and said, (P)“It is necessary (Q)to circumcise them and to order them to keep the law of Moses.”
6 (R)The (S)apostles and the elders were gathered together to consider this matter. 7 And after there had been much (T)debate, Peter stood up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you, (U)that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear (V)the word of (W)the gospel and believe. 8 And God, (X)who knows the heart, (Y)bore witness to them, (Z)by giving them the Holy Spirit just as he did to us, 9 and (AA)he made no distinction between us and them, (AB)having cleansed their hearts (AC)by faith. 10 Now, therefore, why (AD)are you putting God to the test (AE)by placing a yoke on the neck of the disciples (AF)that neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear? 11 But we (AG)believe that we will be (AH)saved through (AI)the grace of the Lord Jesus, (AJ)just as they will.”
12 And all the assembly fell silent, and they listened to Barnabas and Paul (AK)as they related what signs and wonders God had done through them among the Gentiles. 13 After they finished speaking, (AL)James replied, “Brothers, listen to me. 14 (AM)Simeon has related how God first visited the Gentiles, to take from them (AN)a people for his name. 15 And with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written,
16 (AO)“‘After this I will return,
and I will rebuild the tent of David that has fallen;
I will rebuild its ruins,
and I will restore it,
17 that the remnant[b] of mankind (AP)may seek the Lord,
and all the Gentiles (AQ)who are called by my name,
says the Lord, who makes these things 18 (AR)known from of old.’
19 Therefore (AS)my judgment is that we should not trouble those of the Gentiles who (AT)turn to God, 20 but should write to them (AU)to abstain from (AV)the things polluted by idols, and from (AW)sexual immorality, and from (AX)what has been strangled, and from (AY)blood. 21 For from ancient generations Moses has had in every city those who proclaim him, (AZ)for he is read every Sabbath in the synagogues.”
The Council's Letter to Gentile Believers
22 Then it seemed good to (BA)the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose men from among them and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They sent Judas called (BB)Barsabbas, and (BC)Silas, leading men among (BD)the brothers, 23 with the following letter: (BE)“The brothers, both (BF)the apostles and the elders, to the brothers[c] who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, (BG)greetings. 24 Since we have heard that (BH)some persons have gone out from us and (BI)troubled you[d] with words, unsettling your minds, although we gave them no instructions, 25 it has seemed good to us, having come (BJ)to one accord, to choose men and send them to you with our (BK)beloved Barnabas and Paul, 26 (BL)men who have (BM)risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27 We have therefore sent (BN)Judas and Silas, who themselves will tell you the same things by word of mouth. 28 For it has seemed good (BO)to the Holy Spirit and (BP)to us (BQ)to lay on you no greater burden than these requirements: 29 (BR)that you abstain from (BS)what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.”
30 So when they were sent off, they went down to Antioch, and having gathered the congregation together, they delivered the letter. 31 And when they had read it, they rejoiced because of its encouragement. 32 And Judas and Silas, who were themselves (BT)prophets, encouraged and (BU)strengthened (BV)the brothers with many words. 33 And after they had spent some time, they were sent off (BW)in peace by (BX)the brothers to those who had sent them.[e] 35 But (BY)Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
Paul and Barnabas Separate
36 And after some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us return and visit (BZ)the brothers (CA)in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are.” 37 Now Barnabas wanted to take with them (CB)John called Mark. 38 But Paul thought best not to take with them one (CC)who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia and had not gone with them to the work. 39 And there arose (CD)a sharp disagreement, so that they separated from each other. (CE)Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus, 40 but Paul chose Silas and departed, (CF)having been commended by (CG)the brothers to (CH)the grace of the Lord. 41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, (CI)strengthening the churches.
