Acts 2 — TOJB
2Verse 1And when the day of Shavuos is fulfilled, they were all together in one place.+Verse 2And there was mitamuhl (suddenly) from Shomayim a sound like the rushing of a violent wind, and it filled the whole bais where they were sitting.Verse 3And leshonot appeared to them, being divided as eish resting on each one of them,Verse 4And all were filled with the Ruach Hakodesh, and they began to speak in leshonot acherot as the Ruach Hakodesh was giving the utterance to them.Verse 5Now there were in Yerushalayim frum, charedi (orthodox) Yehudim from all the nations under Shomayim.Verse 6And at this sound, the multitude assembled and was bewildered, because they were hearing, each one in his own native language, the Achim b'Moshiach speaking.Verse 7And they were nispoyel (standing in awe) and marveled, saying, Hinei, are not all of these Galileans speaking?Verse 8And how are we hearing, each in our own language in which we were born?Verse 9We Parthians and Medes and Elamites; the ones living in Mesopotamia, Yehudah, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia,Verse 10Phrygia, Pamphylia, Mitzrayim (Egypt), and the regions of Libya around Cyrene; and the visiting Romans,Verse 11Both Yehudim and Gerim (Proselytes), Cretan, and Arabic, we hear them speaking in other languages [than their own] of the Gevurot (mighty acts) of Hashem.Verse 12And all had real hispailus (overwhelming awe) and were bewildered saying one to another, What can this mean?Verse 13But others, mocking, were saying, Of sweet wine they have been filled!Verse 14But Kefa, having stood with the Achad Asar, lifted up his voice and declared to them, Anashim Yehudim! And the ones inhabiting Yerushalayim, have da'as of all this and be goires (listen to) my devarim:Verse 15For these ones are not, as you assume, in their schnaps, for it is only the third hour of the day (nine o'clock in the morning).Verse 16But this is what has been spoken by Yoel HaNavi;Verse 17And it shall be in the Acharit Hayamim, ne'um Hashem, ESHPOCH ES RUCHI AL KOL BASAR V'NIB'U BNEICHEM U'VENOTEICHEM ZIKNEICHEM CHALOMOT YACHALOMUN BACHUREICHEM CHEZYONOT YIRU+(I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh: and your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams and your bochrim will see visions).+Verse 18And upon My avadim and upon My shfakhot in BAYYAMIM HAHEMMAH ESHPOCH ES RUCHI (in those days I will pour out my Ruach [Hakodesh]) and they will speak devarim hanevu'ah:Verse 19And I will give MOFTIM BASHOMAYIM and signs on ha'aretz below, DAHM VA'EISH V'TIMROT ASHAM (blood and fire and billows of smoke).Verse 20The shemesh (sun) will be transformed into choshech (darkness) and the moon into blood before the great and dreadful YOM HASHEM.Verse 21And it will be that everyone whoever calls upon the Name of Adonoi will be saved.+Verse 22Anshei Yisroel, listen to these devarim: Yehoshua of Natzeret, a man having been attested by Hashem to you by gevurot and moftim which Hashem did through him in your midst, just as you yourselves have da'as,Verse 23This one, delivered up by the determined cheshbon (plan) and yedi'ah mukdemet (foreknowledge) of Hashem, and by the hand of lawless Bnei Adam you made him talui al HaEtz+(being hanged on the Tree) and put him to death.+Verse 24But in fact Hashem made Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach to stand up alive again, having destroyed the Chevlei HaMavet, because it was impossible for Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach to be held by Deathʼs ko'ach.Verse 25For Dovid Hamelech says of him, SHIVVITI HASHEM L'NEGDI TAMID, KI MIMINI BAL EMMOT (I set Adonoi before me always, because he is at my right hand I will not be shaken.)+Verse 26Therefore my heart was cheered up and my tongue exulted and in addition also my flesh, my body, will live in secure [hope].+Verse 27Because you will not abandon the nefesh (soul) of me to destruction nor will you give your Chasid+to see corruption.Verse 28TODIEINI ORACH CHAYYIM SOVA SEMACHOT ES PANECHA (You made known to me the path of Chayyim, you will fill me with simcha in your presence).+Verse 29Anashim Achim, it is permitted to speak with bitachon (confidence) to you benoigeia (regarding) Dovid Avinu, that also he died and was buried and his kever (tomb) is with us until this day.+Verse 30Therefore, being a Navi and having da'as that with a shevu'ah (an oath) HASHEM swore to him that from his loins his zera would sit upon his KISSE…+Verse 31Foreseeing this, Dovid Hamelech spoke about the Techiyas HaMoshiach: neither was he “abandoned to destruction nor did his BASAR see corruption.”+Verse 32This Yehoshua in fact Hashem made to stand up alive again, of which we all are Edim.+Verse 33Having been exalted to the right hand of Hashem and having received the havtachah of the Ruach Hakodesh from [Elohim] HaAv, Moshiach poured out this which you also see and hear.Verse 34For Dovid Hamelech did not ascend into Shomayim, but he says, Hashem says to Adoni, SHEV LIMINI (sit down at my right hand),Verse 35Until I make OYVECHA (your enemies) your footstool.+Verse 36Therefore, assuredly let Klal Yisroel have da'as that this Yehoshua, whom you made talui al HaEtz+(being hanged on the Tree), this one Hashem has made both Adoneinu and Rabbeinu, Melech HaMoshiach.Verse 37And when they heard this, they were pierced with conviction in their levavot, and they said to Kefa and to the other of Moshiachʼs Shlichim, Achim, what shall we do?Verse 38And Kefa said to them, Make teshuva (repentance, turning from chet to Hashem) and each of you submit to a tevilah of teshuva in the Shem of Yehoshua HaMoshiach, for the selichat avon of you, and you will receive the matanah of the Ruach Hakodesh.Verse 39For to you is the havtachah and to your yeladim and to all the ones at a distance, as many as may YIKRA B'SHEM ADONOI ELOHEINU.+Verse 40And with many other devarim, Kefa gave solemn edut (testimony) and was warning them, Receive yeshu'at Eloheinu from this DOR IKKESH U'FETALTOL (warped and crooked generation)!+Verse 41Those, who were mekabel Besuras HaGeulah and welcomed his dvar, submitted to a tevilah of teshuva and there were added in that day nefashot (souls) beerech (approximately, dacht zich) shloshet alafim (three thousand).Verse 42And they were keseder (constantly) shtark (steadfastly) devoting themselves to the Moshiachʼs pnimiyus (innermost) Torah as handed on by Moshiachʼs Shlichim (emmisaries of the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach) and to being mishtatef (involved, joining) in the Messianic Chavurah (fellowship, company, group),+and to the tishen (shared meals) with Betzi'at HaLechem (Breaking Bread) at the Seudos Moshiach and to the Tefillos.Verse 43All were filled with yirat Shomayim and were nispoyel (in awe), and many moftim and otot through Moshiachʼs Shlichim were taking place.Verse 44And all the [Jewish] Ma'aminim HaMeshichiyim were together and they were having all things in common.Verse 45And they were selling their properties and possessions and were distributing tzedakah to everyone as someone had need.+Verse 46And yom yom, devoting themselves with one mind in the courts of the Beis Hamikdash, and from bais to bais, offering the Betzi'at HaLechem, they were together at tish with single-hearted exultation and hitlahavut.Verse 47Praising Hashem, and having favor with all the people while G-d was adding to their number yom yom those receiving yeshu'at Eloheinu.
