Kisah Para Rasul 2:22

2:22 “Men of Israel, ¹  listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man clearly attested to you by God with powerful deeds, ²  wonders, and miraculous signs ³  that God performed among you through him, just as you yourselves know –

Kisah Para Rasul 10:33

10:33 Therefore I sent for you at once, and you were kind enough to come. ⁴  So now we are all here in the presence of God ⁵  to listen ⁶  to everything the Lord has commanded you to say to us.” ⁷ 

Kisah Para Rasul 15:23

15:23 They sent this letter with them: ⁸ 

From the apostles ⁹  and elders, your brothers, ¹⁰  to the Gentile brothers and sisters ¹¹  in Antioch, ¹²  Syria, ¹³  and Cilicia, greetings!

[2:22]  ¹ tn Or “Israelite men,” although this is less natural English. The Greek term here is ἀνήρ (anhr), which only exceptionally is used in a generic sense of both males and females. In this context, it is conceivable that this is a generic usage, although it can also be argued that Peter’s remarks were addressed primarily to the men present, even if women were there.

[2:22]  ² tn Or “miraculous deeds.”

[2:22]  ³ tn Again, the context indicates the miraculous nature of these signs, and this is specified in the translation.

[10:33]  ⁴ tn Grk “you have done well by coming.” The idiom καλῶς ποιεῖν (kalw" poiein) is translated “be kind enough to do someth.” by BDAG 505-6 s.v. καλῶς 4.a. The participle παραγενόμενος (paragenomeno") has been translated as an English infinitive due to the nature of the English idiom (“kind enough to” + infinitive).

[10:33]  ⁵ tn The translation “we are here in the presence of God” for ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ πάρεσμεν (enwpion tou qeou paresmen) is given by BDAG 773 s.v. πάρειμι 1.a.

[10:33]  ⁶ tn Or “to hear everything.”

[10:33]  ⁷ tn The words “to say to us” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. Cornelius knows Peter is God’s representative, bringing God’s message.

[15:23]  ⁸ tn Grk “writing by their hand” (an idiom for sending a letter).

[15:23]  ⁹ tn Grk “The apostles.” The word “from” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied to indicate the sender of the letter.

[15:23]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “brothers,” but “your” is supplied to specify the relationship, since without it “brothers” could be understood as vocative in English.

[15:23]  ¹¹ tn Grk “to the brothers who are from the Gentiles.”

[15:23]  ¹² sn Antioch was a city in Syria (not Antioch in Pisidia).

[15:23]  ¹³ tn Grk “and Syria,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.
