Kisah Para Rasul 2:37

The Response to Peter’s Address

2:37 Now when they heard this, ¹  they were acutely distressed ²  and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “What should we do, brothers?”

Kisah Para Rasul 22:10

22:10 So I asked, ³  ‘What should I do, Lord?’ The Lord said to me, ‘Get up ⁴  and go to Damascus; there you will be told about everything ⁵  that you have been designated ⁶  to do.’

[2:37]  ¹ tn The word “this” is not in the Greek text. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek, but must be supplied for the modern English reader.

[2:37]  ² tn Grk “they were pierced to the heart” (an idiom for acute emotional distress).

[22:10]  ³ tn Grk “So I said.”

[22:10]  ⁴ tn Grk “Getting up.” The participle ἀναστάς (anasta") is an adverbial participle of attendant circumstance and has been translated as a finite verb.

[22:10]  ⁵ tn Grk “about all things.”

[22:10]  ⁶ tn Or “assigned,” “ordered.” BDAG 991 s.v. τάσσω 2.a has “act. and pass., foll. by acc. w. inf.…περὶ πάντων ὧν τέτακταί σοι ποιῆσαι concerning everything that you have been ordered to do 22:10.” There is an allusion to a divine call and commission here.
