Kisah Para Rasul 10:35

[85:13]  ¹ tn Or “will go.”

[85:13]  ² tn Or “will prepare.”

[85:13]  ³ tn Heb “and it prepares for a way his footsteps.” Some suggest emending וְיָשֵׂם (vÿyasem, “and prepares”) to וְשָׁלוֹם (vÿshalom, “and peace”) since “deliverance” and “peace” are closely related earlier in v. 13. This could be translated, “and peace [goes ahead, making] a pathway for his footsteps” (cf. NEB).

[10:4]  ⁴ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Cornelius) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:4]  ⁵ tn Grk “said,” but in response to the angel’s address, “replied” is better English style.

[10:4]  ⁶ tn Grk “he”; the referent (the angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:4]  ⁷ tn Or “your gifts to the needy.”

[10:4]  ⁸ sn The language used in the expression gone up as a memorial before God parallels what one would say of acceptable sacrifices (Ps 141:2; Sir 35:6; 50:16).

[10:31]  ⁹ tn Or “your gifts to the needy.”

[10:31]  ¹⁰ sn This statement is a paraphrase rather than an exact quotation of Acts 10:4.

[10:35]  ¹¹ sn See Luke 24:47.

[10:35]  ¹² tn Or “shows reverence for him.”

[10:35]  ¹³ tn Grk “works righteousness”; the translation “does what is right” for this phrase in this verse is given by L&N 25.85.

[10:35]  sn Note how faith and response are linked here by the phrase and does what is right.
