Caeltueih 5
1 Tedae hlang pakhat a ming ah Aninias neh a yuu Sapphira loh hnopai a yoih.
But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, got money for his property,
2 Tedae a phu te a uep. A yuu khaw a yaak sak phoeiah a ngen te a khuen tih caeltueih rhoek kah kho kungah cukdek a tloeng.
And kept back part of the price, his wife having knowledge of it, and took the rest and put it at the feet of the Apostles.
3 Te dongah Peter loh, “Ananias, balae tih Satan loh na thinko a hah sak, Mueihla Cim te na laithae thil. Te dongah ni khohmuen phu te na uep coeng.
But Peter said, Ananias, why has the Evil One put it into your heart to be false to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
4 Aka om tangtae tah namah taengah om tih na yoih vaengah namah ah saithainah a om moenih a? Balae tih na thinko khuiah te bang hno te na khueh. Hlang taeng bueng mueh la Pathen taengah khaw na laithae coeng,” a ti nah.
While you had it, was it not your property? and after you had given it in exchange, was it not still in your power? how has this purpose come into your mind? you have been false, not to men, but to God.
5 Te ol te Ananias loh a yaak vaengah cungku tih duek. Te dongah aka ya rhoek boeih te rhihnah loh muep a kun thil.
And at these words, Ananias went down on the earth, and his life went from him: and great fear came on all who were present.
6 Te dongah cadong rhoek loh thoo uh tih anih te a cun uh phoeiah a khuen uh tih a up uh.
And the young men went and made ready his body, and took it out, and put it in the earth.
7 Khonoek pathum tluk di tih a om phoeiah olka aka om te a yuu loh a ming mueh la kun van.
And about three hours after, his wife, having no knowledge of what had taken place, came in.
8 Te vaengah anih te Peter loh, “Kai taengah thui laeh, khohmuen na thuung te heyet bueng nim,” a ti nah hatah, “Ue heyet ni,” a ti nah.
And Peter said to her, Give me an answer: was this amount of money the price of the land? And she said, Yes, it was.
9 Tedae anih te Peter loh, “Balae tih Boeipa Mueihla noemcai ham na rhoih uh rhoi. Thohka kah na va aka up rhoek kah a kho loh nang khaw n'thak bal ni he,” a ti nah.
But Peter said to her, Why have you made an agreement together to be false to the Spirit of the Lord? See, the feet of the young men who have put the body of your husband in the earth, are at the door, and they will take you out.
10 Te vaengah pahoi cungku tih a kho kungah duek bal. Te dongah cadong rhoek aka kun rhoek loh anih te a duek la a hmuh uh vaengah a khuen uh tih a va taengah a up uh.
And straight away she went down at his feet, and her life went from her: and the young men came in and saw her dead, and they took her out and put her in the earth with her husband.
11 Te dongah hlangboel boeih neh te te aka ya rhoek boeih te rhihnah loh muep a kun thil.
Then great fear came on all the church and on all who had knowledge of these things.
12 Caeltueih rhoek kah a kut loh pilnam taengah miknoek neh khobae rhambae muep a saii dongah Solomon impup ah thikat la boeih om uh.
Now a number of signs and wonders were done among the people by the hands of the Apostles; and they were all together in Solomon's covered way.
13 Amih te a tloe loh ben ham ngaingaih pawt cakhaw amih te pilnam loh a oep.
The others, in fear, kept back from joining them: but the people made much of them;
14 Boeipa aka tangnah huta tongpa rhaengpuei loh taoe thap uh thae.
And a great number of men and women had faith, and were joined to the Lord;
15 Te dongah Peter ha pawk atah a mueihlip rhung long khaw bet dah saeh tila tattloel te thingkong neh phakdoeng soah a ngol sak uh tih toltung la a khuen uh.
And they even took into the streets people who were ill, and put them on beds, so that when Peter went by, some of them might be in his shade.
16 Jerusalem khopuei kaepvai kah rhaengpuei long khaw ha tingtun uh. Tattloel khaw, rhalawt mueihla loh a ven rhoek te khaw a khuen uh tih boeih hoeih uh.
And numbers of people came together from the towns round about Jerusalem, with those who were ill and those who were troubled with unclean spirits: and they were all made well.
17 Khosoihham a thoh nen tah a taengkah rhoek boeih, Sadducee kah buhlaelh la aka om rhoek loh kohlopnah neh khuk hah uh.
But the high priest and those who were with him (the Sadducees) were full of envy,
18 Te phoeiah caeltueih rhoek te kut a hlah thil uh tih thongim ah langya la a hlak uh.
And they took the Apostles and put them in the common prison.
19 Tedae khoyin ah Boeipa kah puencawn loh thongim thohka te a ong tih a mawt.
But in the night an angel of the Lord, opening the doors of the prison, took them out and said,
20 Te phoeiah amih rhoi te, “Cet rhoi, bawkim kah pilnam taengah pai rhoi lamtah hingnah ol he boeih thui rhoi,” a ti nah.
Go, take your place in the Temple and give the people all the teaching about this Life.
21 Mincang ah bawkim la kun rhoi tih a thuituen rhoi te a yaak uh. Te dongah khosoihham aka pawk rhoek neh a taengkah rhoek loh khoboei neh Israel ca khuikah paham rhoek te boeih a hueh uh tih amih rhoi aka lo ham thongim la a tueih uh.
And hearing this, they went into the Temple at dawn, and were teaching. But the high priest and those who were with him got together the Sanhedrin and the representatives of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to get them.
22 Tedae tueihyoeih rhoek loh a pha uh vaengah amih rhoi te thongim khuiah a hmu uh pawt dongah bal uh tih puen uh.
But the men who were sent saw that they were not in the prison, and came back with the news,
23 Te vaengah, “Thongim te cakrhuet la boeih a khaih tih thohka ah aka tawtkung rhoek a pai uh khaw ka hmuh uh dae a ong vaengah a khuiah u khaw ka hmuh uh pawh,” a ti uh.
Saying, The doors of the prison were safely shut, and the keepers were at the doors, but when they were open, there was nobody inside.
24 Bawkim kah imtawt boei neh khosoihham loh he ol a yaak vaengah amih ham te metlam a om co tila khobing uh.
Now, at these words, the captain of the Temple and the chief priests were greatly troubled about what might be the end of this business.
25 Te vaengah pakhat ha pawk tih, “Thongim ah na khueh uh hlang rhoi loh bawkim ah pai rhoi tih pilnam a thuituen rhoi he, “tila amih taengah a puen pah.
And someone came and said to them, The men, whom you put in prison, are in the Temple teaching the people.
26 Te dongah imtawt boei neh a tueihyoeih rhoek te cet uh tih amih rhoi te a mawt uh. Tedae pilnam kah a dae te a rhih uh dongah vikvueknah neh saii uh pawh.
Then the captain and some of the police went and took them, but not violently, for fear that they might be stoned by the people.
27 A khuen uh neh amih rhoi te khoboei hmaiah a pai rhoi vaengah khosoihham loh a dawt tih,
And they took them into the Sanhedrin, and the high priest said to them,
28 “Te ming neh thuituen pawt ham nangmih rhoi taengah oluen khaw kang uen uh moenih a? Tedae nangmih kah thuituennah neh Jerusalem ah bae coeng he. Hlang thii he kaimih soah tla saeh na ti rhoi a?” a ti nah.
We gave you very clear orders not to give teaching in this name: and now Jerusalem is full of your teaching, and you are attempting to make us responsible for this man's death.
29 Peter neh caeltueih rhoek loh a doo uh, “Hlang ol lakah Pathen ol ngai lat ham a kuek.
But Peter and the Apostles, answering, said, We have to do the orders of God, not of man.
30 A pa rhoek kah Pathen loh Jesuh a thoh coeng. Anih na ngawn uh tih thing dongah na hoei uh.
The God of our fathers gave Jesus back to life, whom you had put to death, hanging him on a tree.
31 Israel te yutnah neh tholh khodawkngainah paek ham Pathen loh a bantang ah rhuihnun neh khangkung la a pomsang coeng.
Him God has put on high at his right hand, as a Ruler and a Saviour, to give to Israel a change of heart and forgiveness of sins.
32 Te dongah kaimih loh te olthang kah laipai la ka om uh tih, anih ol aka ngai rhoek te Pathen loh Mueihla Cim a paek coeng,” a ti rhoi.
And we are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who keep his laws.
33 Tedae aka ya rhoek loh phuk a paeng uh dongah amih te thup hamla cai uh.
But when these words came to their ears, they were cut to the heart, and had a mind to put them to death.
34 Te vaengah Pharisee pakhat, a ming ah Gamaliel, pilnam boeih loh saya la a hinyah te, khoboei lakli ah thoo tih hlang rhoek te poeng la rhaih khueh ham ol a paek.
But one of the Sanhedrin, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a man of learning in the law, of whom all the people had a high opinion, got up and made a suggestion for the men to be put outside for a little time.
35 Te phoeiah amih te, “Israel hlang rhoek, he hlang rhoek taengah metla saii ham na cai uh khaw namamih ngaithuen uh.
And he said to them, Men of Israel, take care what you do about these men.
36 Amih hlankah Theudas a cungpoeh hnin ah khaw amah te khat khat la om ham a thui dongah hlang he hlangmi yali tluk loh anih taengla bop uh. Tedae anih a thup uh vaengah anih aka ngaitang boeih loh boeih milh uh tih a honghi la poeh.
For before this there was Theudas, who said he was someone important, to whom about four hundred men gave their support: he was put to death, and his band was broken up and came to nothing.
37 Hlangmi soepnah tue vaengah khaw Galilee kah Judah te phoe bal tih a hnukah pilnam te a yoek bal. Tedae anih khaw poci tih anih aka ngaitang boeih tah muep paltham uh.
After this man, there was Judas of Galilee, at the time of the numbering, and some of the people went after him: he was put to death, and all his supporters were put to flight.
38 Te dongah nangmih ham ka thui coeng he. Hekah hlang rhoek he nong tak uh lamtah hlah uh mai. He he hlang kah mangtaengnah neh a khoboe la a om atah a phae pah bitni.
And now I say to you, Do nothing to these men, but let them be: for if this teaching or this work is of men, it will come to nothing:
39 Tedae Pathen lamkah la a om atah amih te na palet thai mahpawh, nangmih te boekoek la m'hmuh uh boel saeh,” a ti nah vaengah anih ol te a rhooi uh.
But if it is of God, you will not be able to overcome them, and you are in danger of fighting against God.
40 Te dongah caeltueih rhoek te a khue uh tih a tam uh. Jesuh ming neh thui pawt ham khaw a uen uh tih a hlah uh.
And he seemed to them to be right: and they sent for the Apostles, and, after having them whipped and giving them orders to give no teaching in the name of Jesus, they let them go.
41 Te vaengah, “A ming ham yahbai nen khaw n'tiing uh pai,” a ti uh dongah khoboei hmai lamloh omngaih la mael uh.
So they went away from the Sanhedrin, happy to undergo shame for the Name.
42 Tedae bawkim khui neh im lamkah hnin takuem ah toeng mueh la a thuituen uh tih Khrih Jesuh te a phong uh.
And every day, in the Temple and privately, they went on teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ.
