Acts 5
1 But a certain man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a field,
ανηρ δε τισ ανανιασ ονοματι συν σαπφειρη τη γυναικι αυτου επωλησεν κτημα
2 and he was deceitful about the price of the field, with his wife’s consent. And bringing only part of it, he placed it at the feet of the Apostles.
και ενοσφισατο απο τησ τιμησ συνειδυιασ και τησ γυναικοσ αυτου και ενεγκασ μεροσ τι παρα τουσ ποδασ των αποστολων εθηκεν
3 But Peter said: “Ananias, why has Satan tempted your heart, so that you would lie to the Holy Spirit and be deceitful about the price of the land?
ειπεν δε πετροσ ανανια δια τι επληρωσεν ο σατανασ την καρδιαν σου ψευσασθαι σε το πνευμα το αγιον και νοσφισασθαι σε απο τησ τιμησ του χωριου
4 Did it not belong to you while you retained it? And having sold it, was it not in your power? Why have you set this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God!”
ουχι μενον σοι εμενεν και πραθεν εν τη ση εξουσια υπηρχεν τι οτι εθου εν τη καρδια σου το πραγμα τουτο ουκ εψευσω ανθρωποισ αλλα τω θεω
5 Then Ananias, upon hearing these words, fell down and expired. And a great fear overwhelmed all who heard of it.
ακουων δε ο ανανιασ τουσ λογουσ τουτουσ πεσων εξεψυξεν και εγενετο φοβοσ μεγασ επι παντασ τουσ ακουοντασ ταυτα
6 And the young men rose up and removed him; and carrying him out, they buried him.
ανασταντεσ δε οι νεωτεροι συνεστειλαν αυτον και εξενεγκαντεσ εθαψαν
7 Then about the space of three hours passed, and his wife entered, not knowing what had happened.
εγενετο δε ωσ ωρων τριων διαστημα και η γυνη αυτου μη ειδυια το γεγονοσ εισηλθεν
8 And Peter said to her, “Tell me, woman, if you sold the field for this amount?” And she said, “Yes, for that amount.”
απεκριθη δε αυτη ο πετροσ ειπε μοι ει τοσουτου το χωριον απεδοσθε η δε ειπεν ναι τοσουτου
9 And Peter said to her: “Why have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they shall carry you out!”
ο δε πετροσ ειπεν προσ αυτην τι οτι συνεφωνηθη υμιν πειρασαι το πνευμα κυριου ιδου οι ποδεσ των θαψαντων τον ανδρα σου επι τη θυρα και εξοισουσιν σε
10 Immediately, she fell down before his feet and expired. Then the young men entered and found her dead. And they carried her out and buried her next to her husband.
επεσεν δε παραχρημα παρα τουσ ποδασ αυτου και εξεψυξεν εισελθοντεσ δε οι νεανισκοι ευρον αυτην νεκραν και εξενεγκαντεσ εθαψαν προσ τον ανδρα αυτησ
11 And a great fear came over the entire Church and over all who heard these things.
και εγενετο φοβοσ μεγασ εφ ολην την εκκλησιαν και επι παντασ τουσ ακουοντασ ταυτα
12 And through the hands of the Apostles many signs and wonders were accomplished among the people. And they all met with one accord at Solomon’s portico.
δια δε των χειρων των αποστολων εγινετο σημεια και τερατα εν τω λαω πολλα και ησαν ομοθυμαδον απαντεσ εν τη στοα σολομωντοσ
13 And among the others, no one dared to join himself to them. But the people magnified them.
των δε λοιπων ουδεισ ετολμα κολλασθαι αυτοισ αλλ εμεγαλυνεν αυτουσ ο λαοσ
14 Now the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord was ever increasing,
μαλλον δε προσετιθεντο πιστευοντεσ τω κυριω πληθη ανδρων τε και γυναικων
15 so much so that they laid the infirm in the streets, placing them on beds and stretchers, so that, as Peter arrived, at least his shadow might fall upon any one of them, and they would be freed from their infirmities.
ωστε κατα τασ πλατειασ εκφερειν τουσ ασθενεισ και τιθεναι επι κλινων και κραββατων ινα ερχομενου πετρου καν η σκια επισκιαση τινι αυτων
16 But a multitude also hurried to Jerusalem from the neighboring cities, carrying the sick and those troubled by unclean spirits, who were all healed.
συνηρχετο δε και το πληθοσ των περιξ πολεων εισ ιερουσαλημ φεροντεσ ασθενεισ και οχλουμενουσ υπο πνευματων ακαθαρτων οιτινεσ εθεραπευοντο απαντεσ
17 Then the high priest and all those who were with him, that is, the heretical sect of the Sadducees, rose up and were filled with jealousy.
αναστασ δε ο αρχιερευσ και παντεσ οι συν αυτω η ουσα αιρεσισ των σαδδουκαιων επλησθησαν ζηλου
18 And they laid hands on the Apostles, and they placed them in the common prison.
και επεβαλον τασ χειρασ αυτων επι τουσ αποστολουσ και εθεντο αυτουσ εν τηρησει δημοσια
19 But in the night, an Angel of the Lord opened the doors of the prison and led them out, saying,
αγγελοσ δε κυριου δια τησ νυκτοσ ηνοιξεν τασ θυρασ τησ φυλακησ εξαγαγων τε αυτουσ ειπεν
20 “Go and stand in the temple, speaking to the people all these words of life.”
πορευεσθε και σταθεντεσ λαλειτε εν τω ιερω τω λαω παντα τα ρηματα τησ ζωησ ταυτησ
21 And when they had heard this, they entered the temple at first light, and they were teaching. Then the high priest, and those who were with him, approached, and they called together the council and all the elders of the sons of Israel. And they sent to the prison to have them brought.
ακουσαντεσ δε εισηλθον υπο τον ορθρον εισ το ιερον και εδιδασκον παραγενομενοσ δε ο αρχιερευσ και οι συν αυτω συνεκαλεσαν το συνεδριον και πασαν την γερουσιαν των υιων ισραηλ και απεστειλαν εισ το δεσμωτηριον αχθηναι αυτουσ
22 But when the attendants had arrived, and, upon opening the prison, had not found them, they returned and reported to them,
οι δε υπηρεται παραγενομενοι ουχ ευρον αυτουσ εν τη φυλακη αναστρεψαντεσ δε απηγγειλαν
23 saying: “We found the prison certainly locked up with all diligence, and the guards standing before the door. But upon opening it, we found no one within.”
λεγοντεσ οτι το μεν δεσμωτηριον ευρομεν κεκλεισμενον εν παση ασφαλεια και τουσ φυλακασ εστωτασ προ των θυρων ανοιξαντεσ δε εσω ουδενα ευρομεν
24 Then, when the magistrate of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were uncertain about them, as to what should happen.
ωσ δε ηκουσαν τουσ λογουσ τουτουσ ο τε ιερευσ και ο στρατηγοσ του ιερου και οι αρχιερεισ διηπορουν περι αυτων τι αν γενοιτο τουτο
25 But someone arrived and reported to them, “Behold, the men whom you placed in prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people.”
παραγενομενοσ δε τισ απηγγειλεν αυτοισ οτι ιδου οι ανδρεσ ουσ εθεσθε εν τη φυλακη εισιν εν τω ιερω εστωτεσ και διδασκοντεσ τον λαον
26 Then the magistrate, with the attendants, went and brought them without force. For they were afraid of the people, lest they be stoned.
τοτε απελθων ο στρατηγοσ συν τοισ υπηρεταισ ηγαγεν αυτουσ ου μετα βιασ εφοβουντο γαρ τον λαον ινα μη λιθασθωσιν
27 And when they had brought them, they stood them before the council. And the high priest questioned them,
αγαγοντεσ δε αυτουσ εστησαν εν τω συνεδριω και επηρωτησεν αυτουσ ο αρχιερευσ
28 and said: “We strongly order you not to teach in this name. For behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you wish to bring the blood of this man upon us.”
λεγων ου παραγγελια παρηγγειλαμεν υμιν μη διδασκειν επι τω ονοματι τουτω και ιδου πεπληρωκατε την ιερουσαλημ τησ διδαχησ υμων και βουλεσθε επαγαγειν εφ ημασ το αιμα του ανθρωπου τουτου
29 But Peter and the Apostles responded by saying: “It is necessary to obey God, more so than men.
αποκριθεισ δε πετροσ και οι αποστολοι ειπον πειθαρχειν δει θεω μαλλον η ανθρωποισ
30 The God of our fathers has raised up Jesus, whom you put to death by hanging him on a tree.
ο θεοσ των πατερων ημων ηγειρεν ιησουν ον υμεισ διεχειρισασθε κρεμασαντεσ επι ξυλου
31 It is he whom God has exalted at his right hand as Ruler and Savior, so as to offer repentance and the remission of sins to Israel.
τουτον ο θεοσ αρχηγον και σωτηρα υψωσεν τη δεξια αυτου δουναι μετανοιαν τω ισραηλ και αφεσιν αμαρτιων
32 And we are witnesses of these things, with the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to all who are obedient to him.”
και ημεισ εσμεν αυτου μαρτυρεσ των ρηματων τουτων και το πνευμα δε το αγιον ο εδωκεν ο θεοσ τοισ πειθαρχουσιν αυτω
33 When they had heard these things, they were deeply wounded, and they were planning to put them to death.
οι δε ακουοντεσ διεπριοντο και εβουλευοντο ανελειν αυτουσ
34 But someone in the council, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law honored by all the people, rose up and ordered the men to be put outside briefly.
αναστασ δε τισ εν τω συνεδριω φαρισαιοσ ονοματι γαμαλιηλ νομοδιδασκαλοσ τιμιοσ παντι τω λαω εκελευσεν εξω βραχυ τι τουσ αποστολουσ ποιησαι
35 And he said to them: “Men of Israel, you should be careful in your intentions about these men.
ειπεν τε προσ αυτουσ ανδρεσ ισραηλιται προσεχετε εαυτοισ επι τοισ ανθρωποισ τουτοισ τι μελλετε πρασσειν
36 For before these days, Theudas stepped forward, asserting himself to be someone, and a number of men, about four hundred, joined with him. But he was killed, and all who believed in him were scattered, and they were reduced to nothing.
προ γαρ τουτων των ημερων ανεστη θευδασ λεγων ειναι τινα εαυτον ω προσεκληθη αριθμοσ ανδρων ωσει τετρακοσιων οσ ανηρεθη και παντεσ οσοι επειθοντο αυτω διελυθησαν και εγενοντο εισ ουδεν
37 After this one, Judas the Galilean stepped forward, in the days of the enrollment, and he turned the people toward himself. But he also perished, and all of them, as many as had joined with him, were dispersed.
μετα τουτον ανεστη ιουδασ ο γαλιλαιοσ εν ταισ ημεραισ τησ απογραφησ και απεστησεν λαον ικανον οπισω αυτου κακεινοσ απωλετο και παντεσ οσοι επειθοντο αυτω διεσκορπισθησαν
38 And now therefore, I say to you, withdraw from these men and leave them alone. For if this counsel or work is of men, it will be broken.
και τα νυν λεγω υμιν αποστητε απο των ανθρωπων τουτων και εασατε αυτουσ οτι εαν η εξ ανθρωπων η βουλη η το εργον τουτο καταλυθησεται
39 Yet truly, if it is of God, you will not be able to break it, and perhaps you might be found to have fought against God.” And they agreed with him.
ει δε εκ θεου εστιν ου δυνασθε καταλυσαι αυτο μηποτε και θεομαχοι ευρεθητε
40 And calling in the Apostles, having beaten them, they warned them not to speak at all in the name of Jesus. And they dismissed them.
επεισθησαν δε αυτω και προσκαλεσαμενοι τουσ αποστολουσ δειραντεσ παρηγγειλαν μη λαλειν επι τω ονοματι του ιησου και απελυσαν αυτουσ
41 And indeed, they went forth from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were considered worthy to suffer insult on behalf of the name of Jesus.
οι μεν ουν επορευοντο χαιροντεσ απο προσωπου του συνεδριου οτι υπερ του ονοματοσ του ιησου κατηξιωθησαν ατιμασθηναι
42 And every day, in the temple and among the houses, they did not cease to teach and to evangelize Christ Jesus.
πασαν τε ημεραν εν τω ιερω και κατ οικον ουκ επαυοντο διδασκοντεσ και ευαγγελιζομενοι ιησουν τον χριστον
