Acts 4
1 While Peter and John were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple guard and the Sadducees came up to them,
yasmin samayE pitarayOhanau lOkAn upadizatastasmin samayE yAjakA mandirasya sEnApatayaH sidUkIgaNazca
2 greatly disturbed that they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection of the dead.
tayOr upadEzakaraNE khrISTasyOtthAnam upalakSya sarvvESAM mRtAnAm utthAnaprastAvE ca vyagrAH santastAvupAgaman|
3 They seized Peter and John, and because it was evening, they put them in custody until the next day.
tau dhRtvA dinAvasAnakAraNAt paradinaparyyanantaM ruddhvA sthApitavantaH|
4 But many who heard the message believed, and the number of men grew to about five thousand.
tathApi yE lOkAstayOrupadEzam azRNvan tESAM prAyENa panjcasahasrANi janA vyazvasan|
5 The next day the rulers, elders, and scribes assembled in Jerusalem,
parE'hani adhipatayaH prAcInA adhyApakAzca hAnananAmA mahAyAjakaH
6 along with Annas the high priest, Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and many others from the high priest’s family.
kiyaphA yOhan sikandara ityAdayO mahAyAjakasya jnjAtayaH sarvvE yirUzAlamnagarE militAH|
7 They had Peter and John brought in and began to question them: “By what power or what name did you do this?”
anantaraM prEritau madhyE sthApayitvApRcchan yuvAM kayA zaktayA vA kEna nAmnA karmmANyEtAni kuruthaH?
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers and elders of the people!
tadA pitaraH pavitrENAtmanA paripUrNaH san pratyavAdIt, hE lOkAnAm adhipatigaNa hE isrAyElIyaprAcInAH,
9 If we are being examined today about a kind service to a man who was lame, to determine how he was healed,
Etasya durbbalamAnuSasya hitaM yat karmmAkriyata, arthAt, sa yEna prakArENa svasthObhavat taccEd adyAvAM pRcchatha,
10 then let this be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed.

11 This Jesus is ‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.’
nicEtRbhi ryuSmAbhirayaM yaH prastarO'vajnjAtO'bhavat sa pradhAnakONasya prastarO'bhavat|
12 Salvation exists in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.”
tadbhinnAdaparAt kasmAdapi paritrANaM bhavituM na zaknOti, yEna trANaM prApyEta bhUmaNPalasyalOkAnAM madhyE tAdRzaM kimapi nAma nAsti|
13 When they saw the boldness of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they marveled and took note that these men had been with Jesus.
tadA pitarayOhanOrEtAdRzIm akSEbhatAM dRSTvA tAvavidvAMsau nIcalOkAviti buddhvA Azcaryyam amanyanta tau ca yIzOH sagginau jAtAviti jnjAtum azaknuvan|
14 And seeing the man who had been healed standing there with them, they had nothing to say in response.
kintu tAbhyAM sArddhaM taM svasthamAnuSaM tiSThantaM dRSTvA tE kAmapyaparAm ApattiM karttaM nAzaknun|
15 So they ordered them to leave the Sanhedrin and then conferred together.
tadA tE sabhAtaH sthAnAntaraM gantuM tAn AjnjApya svayaM parasparam iti mantraNAmakurvvan
16 “What shall we do with these men?” they asked. “It is clear to everyone living in Jerusalem that a remarkable miracle has occurred through them, and we cannot deny it.
tau mAnavau prati kiM karttavyaM? tAvEkaM prasiddham AzcaryyaM karmma kRtavantau tad yirUzAlamnivAsinAM sarvvESAM lOkAnAM samIpE prAkAzata tacca vayamapahnOtuM na zaknumaH|
17 But to keep this message from spreading any further among the people, we must warn them not to speak to anyone in this name.”
kintu lOkAnAM madhyam Etad yathA na vyApnOti tadarthaM tau bhayaM pradarzya tEna nAmnA kamapi manuSyaM nOpadizatam iti dRPhaM niSEdhAmaH|
18 Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.
tatastE prEritAvAhUya EtadAjnjApayan itaH paraM yIzO rnAmnA kadApi kAmapi kathAM mA kathayataM kimapi nOpadizanjca|
19 But Peter and John replied, “Judge for yourselves whether it is right in God’s sight to listen to you rather than God.
tataH pitarayOhanau pratyavadatAm IzvarasyAjnjAgrahaNaM vA yuSmAkam AjnjAgrahaNam EtayO rmadhyE Izvarasya gOcarE kiM vihitaM? yUyaM tasya vivEcanAM kuruta|
20 For we cannot stop speaking about what we have seen and heard.”
vayaM yad apazyAma yadazRNuma ca tanna pracArayiSyAma Etat kadApi bhavituM na zaknOti|
21 After further threats they let them go. They could not find a way to punish them, because all the people were glorifying God for what had happened.
yadaghaTata tad dRSTA sarvvE lOkA Izvarasya guNAn anvavadan tasmAt lOkabhayAt tau daNPayituM kamapyupAyaM na prApya tE punarapi tarjayitvA tAvatyajan|
22 For the man who was miraculously healed was over forty years old.
yasya mAnuSasyaitat svAsthyakaraNam AzcaryyaM karmmAkriyata tasya vayazcatvAriMzadvatsarA vyatItAH|
23 On their release, Peter and John returned to their own people and reported everything that the chief priests and elders had said to them.
tataH paraM tau visRSTau santau svasagginAM sannidhiM gatvA pradhAnayAjakaiH prAcInalOkaizca prOktAH sarvvAH kathA jnjApitavantau|
24 When the believers heard this, they lifted up their voices to God with one accord. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “You made the heaven and the earth and the sea and everything in them.
tacchrutvA sarvva EkacittIbhUya Izvaramuddizya prOccairEtat prArthayanta, hE prabhO gagaNapRthivIpayOdhInAM tESu ca yadyad AstE tESAM sraSTEzvarastvaM|
25 You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of Your servant, our father David: ‘Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain?

26 The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the Lord and against His Anointed One.’

27 In fact, this is the very city where Herod and Pontius Pilate conspired with the Gentiles and the people of Israel against Your holy servant Jesus, whom You anointed.

28 They carried out what Your hand and will had decided beforehand would happen.
'nyadEzIyalOkA isrAyEllOkAzca sarvva EtE sabhAyAm atiSThan|
29 And now, Lord, consider their threats, and enable Your servants to speak Your word with complete boldness,
hE paramEzvara adhunA tESAM tarjanaM garjananjca zRNu;
30 as You stretch out Your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of Your holy servant Jesus.”

31 After they had prayed, their meeting place was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.

32 The multitude of believers was one in heart and soul. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they owned.

33 With great power the apostles continued to give their testimony about the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And abundant grace was upon them all.

34 There were no needy ones among them, because those who owned lands or houses would sell their property, bring the proceeds from the sales,

35 and lay them at the apostles’ feet for distribution to anyone as he had need.

36 Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas (meaning Son of Encouragement),
