Acts 5
1 NOW a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, had sold an estate,
Men yon sèten mesye ke yo te rele Ananias ak Saphira, madanm li, te vann yon moso tè.
2 and secreted a part of the price paid, his wife also being privy to the transaction, and he brought a part, and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
Men li te kenbe yon pati nan pri a pou li menm, avèk konesans madanm li. Konsa, li te pote yon sèten pati, e te mete l nan pye apòt yo.
3 But Peter said, O Ananias! why hath Satan filled thy heart that thou shouldst lie to the Holy Ghost, and secrete something from the price of the estate?
Men Pierre, te di: “Ananias, poukisa Satan ranpli kè ou pou bay manti a Lespri Sen an e pou kenbe yon pati nan pri tè a an kachèt.
4 it remained unsold, was it not vested in thee? and when sold, was it not in thine own power? why then hast thou determined in thine heart to do this deed? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.
Pandan li te rete pa t vann nan, èske li pa t nan men ou? E lè li te fin vann nan, èske li pa t toujou sou kontwòl pa w? Poukisa ou kalkile bagay sa a nan kè ou? Se pa a moun ke ou bay manti a, men a Bondye.”
5 Then Ananias, hearing those words, sunk down and expired: and great dread fell upon all who heard these things.
Ananias, lè l te tande bagay sa yo, te tonbe atè e te respire dènye souf li. Yon gwo laperèz te vini sou tout sila ki te tande bagay sa yo.
6 Then the young men arose, and swathed him up, and carrying him out, buried him.
Jennjan yo te leve li, vlope li nan yon twal e te pote l deyò pou te antere l.
7 Now it came to pass at the distance of about three hours, his wife also, not knowing what had passed, came in.
Nan anviwon twazèdtan, madanm li, san konnen sa ki te rive a, te antre.
8 And Peter addressed her, Tell me, if ye sold the estate for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much.
Pierre te di li: “Di m si ou te vann tè a pou yon pri konsa?” Li te di: “Wi, pou yon pri konsa”.
9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have conspired together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? see, the feet of them who have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.
Alò, Pierre te di li: “Poukisa ke nou dakò ansanm pou tante Lespri Senyè a? Vwala, pye a sila ki te antere mari ou yo parèt nan pòt la, e yo va pote ou deyò a tou.”
10 Then she fell instantly at his feet, and expired: and the young men entering, found her dead, and carrying her out, buried her with her husband.
Konsa li te tonbe atè e te rann dènye souf li. Jennjan yo te antre, yo twouve li tou mouri e te pote l ale. Yo te antere li bò kote mari li.
11 And great awe fell on all the Church, and on all who heard these things.
Yon gwo laperèz te vin tonbe sou tout legliz la, e sou tout sila ki te tande bagay sa yo.
12 But by the hands of the apostles were many signs and miracles done among the people; (and they were all with one accord in the portico of Solomon.
Pa men apòt yo, anpil sign ak mirak te fèt pami pèp la, e yo tout te an akò nan Galri Salomon an.
13 But of the rest no man had the courage to unite himself with them: though the people extolled them.
Pou lòt yo, pa t gen pèsòn ki te gen kouraj pou vin jwenn avèk yo, men pèp la te bay yo lwanj.
14 But believers on the Lord were abundantly added to them, multitudes, both of men and women.)
Konsa, anpil kwayan nan non Senyè a, yon fòs kantite gason avèk fi t ap ajoute tout tan pami yo.
15 Insomuch that they carried out into the streets the sick, and laid them on beds and couches, that when Peter was coming by, if but even his shadow might pass over some of them.
Yo t ap menm pote malad yo e mete yo nan lari; yo te fè yo kouche sou kabann ak palèt, pou menm yon ti kras lonbraj Pierre, lè l pase, ta kapab tonbe sou nenpòt nan yo.
16 Then came together also a multitude from the neighbouring cities to Jerusalem, bringing the sick, and those who were disturbed by unclean spirits; who were healed universally.
Te vini osi foul ki te sòti nan vil ki te antoure Jérusalem yo, ki t ap pote moun malad, ak sila ki te twouble pa move Lespri yo, e yo tout te geri.
17 Then arose the high-priest, and all those who were connected with him, (which was the sect of the Sadducees, ) and were filled with zeal,
Men wo prèt la te vin leve, ak tout sila ki te avèk li yo (sa vle di Sadiseyen yo), e yo te jalou anpil.
18 and laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.
Yo te mete men sou apòt yo, e te mete yo nan yon prizon piblik.
19 But the angel of the Lord by night opened the doors of the prison, and conducting them forth, said,
Men yon zanj Bondye te ouvri pòt prizon an pandan lannwit, e te fè yo sòti, e te di:
20 Go, and taking your station in the temple, speak to the people all the words of this life.
“Ale, kanpe pale ak pèp la nan tanp lan tout pawòl lavi a.”
21 Having heard this therefore, they entered very early in the morning into the temple, and taught. But when the high-priest came, and those who were with him, they convoked the sanhedrim, and all the assembly of elders of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to bring them.
Lè yo te tande sa, yo te antre nan tanp lan granmmaten, e yo te kòmanse enstwi. Men lèwo prèt la te vini, ansanm ak sila ki te avèk li yo, yo te reyini yon gran konsèy avèk tout ansyen Israël yo. Konsa yo te voye kote prizon an pou fè yo vini.
22 But the officers, on their arrival, found them not in the prison: and returning, informed them,
Men lè jandam yo te vini, yo te twouve ke yo pa t nan prizon an. Konsa yo te retounen pou te bay rapò a.
23 saying; The prison indeed found we fast locked with all security, and the guards standing without, before the door: but when we opened it, we found no person within.
Yo te di: “Nou te twouve prizon an byen fèmen e byen sere avèk gad yo ki te kanpe devan pòt la, men lè nou te louvri li, nou pa twouve pèsòn ladann.”
24 Now when they heard these words, both the priest and captain of the temple and the chief priests were in the utmost perplexity concerning these things, what could be the meaning of it.
Lè wo prèt la avèk kaptenn kò gad tanp lan te tande sa, yo te vin enkyete pou kote pwoblèm sa a ta vin rive.
25 Then came a person and informed them, saying, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.
Men yon moun te vin di yo: “Gade, mesye sa yo ke nou te mete nan prizon an kanpe nan tanp lan e y ap enstwi pèp la.”
26 Then went the captain, with the officers, and brought them; not forcibly, for they were afraid of the people, lest they should stone them.
Alò, yo te ale avèk kaptenn lan ak jandam yo, e te mennen yo vini san vyolans; paske yo te krent pèp la, pou yo pa ta lapide yo avèk wòch.
27 But when they had conducted them, they placed them in the sanhedrim: and the high-priest interrogated them,
Lè yo te mennen yo, yo te fè yo kanpe devan konsèy la pou wo prèt la kesyone yo.
28 saying, Did we not lay our strict injunction upon you, that you should not teach in this name? and, lo, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and would fain bring this man’s blood upon us.
Li te di yo konsa: “Èske nou pa t bay nou yon lòd byen klè pou nou pa kontinye enstwi nan non sila a? E malgre sa a, nou fin ranpli tout Jérusalem avèk enstriksyon nou yo, e nou gen entansyon voye san mesye sa a sou nou”.
29 Then Peter and the apostles answering said, We must obey God rather than men.
Alò Pierre avèk apòt yo te reponn e te di: “Nou oblije obeyi a Bondye olye a lòm.
30 The God of our fathers hath raised up Jesus, whom ye had killed, suspending him on a tree.
Bondye a zansèt nou yo te fè leve Jésus, ke nou te touye pann sou yon kwa a.
31 Him hath God exalted at his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, to give repentance unto Israel, and remission of sins.
Se Li menm Bondye te fè leve wo kote men dwat Li, tankou yon Prens, e yon Sovè, pou bay a Israël repantans, ak padon pou peche yo.
32 And we are witnesses of these things; and the Holy Ghost also, which God hath given to those who obey him.
Nou te temwen a bagay sa yo; e anplis Lespri Sen an ke Bondye bay a sila ki obeyi Li yo.”
33 But when they heard this, they were cut asunder as with a saw, and took counsel how to make away with them.
Lè yo te tande sa, yo te byen blese, e te fè plan pou touye yo.
34 Then arose a certain Pharisee, in the sanhedrim, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, held in high esteem by all the people, and ordered the apostles to be taken out for a little space;
Alò, yon nonm nan konsèy la ke yo te rele Gamaliel te kanpe, yon pwofesè nan Lalwa ki te gen bon repitasyon pami tout pèp. Li te mande yo mete apot yo deyò pou yon moman.
35 and he said unto them, Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves respecting these men, what ye mean to do to them.
Li te di yo: “Moun Israël yo, veye nou menm ak sa nou gen entansyon fè avèk mesye sila yo,
36 For before these days arose Theudas, saying that he himself was a singular personage: to whom a number of men, about four hundred, attached themselves: who was taken off; and as many as obeyed him, were dispersed, and came to nothing.
Paske pa anpil jou avan sa, te leve yon Theudas ki t ap pretann li menm te yon pèsonaj, epi yon gwoup kat-san òm te vin jwenn avèk li. Men yo te touye li, e tout sila ki te swiv li yo te vin gaye, e pa t reyalize anyen.
37 And after him arose Judas the Galilean, in the days of the enrolment, and drew away a multitude of the populace after him: he also perished, and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
“Apre mesye sila a, Judas, Galileyen an, te leve nan jou resansman an, e li te atire kèk moun dèyè l. Li menm tou te peri, e tout sila ki te swiv li yo te vin gaye.
38 And as to the matters now before you, I say unto you, Abstain from these men, and leave them to themselves: for if this design or this work be of men, it will come to nothing:
“Donk, nan ka prezan an, mwen di nou, rete lwen de moun sa yo, e pa okipe yo, paske si plan oubyen aksyon sa a sòti nan lòm, li va boulvèse.
39 but if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; and in that case would be found fighters against God.
Men si se nan Bondye, nou p ap kab boulvèse yo; sinon nou kab menm twouve ke n ap goumen kont Bondye menm.”
40 And to him they assented: and calling in the apostles, after scourging them, they commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and dismissed them.
Yo te koute konsèy li. Apre yo te rele apòt yo antre, yo te bat yo avèk fwèt, e te kòmande yo pou yo pa pale nan non Jésus, e te lage yo.
41 Then they went rejoicing from the presence of the sanhedrim, that for his name’s sake, they had been counted worthy to suffer this injurious treatment.
Donk yo te kite konsèy la; yo te al fè wout yo, e t ap rejwi ke yo te konsidere dign pou soufri mepri pou non Li.
42 And all the day long in the temple, and from house to house, they never ceased teaching and preaching Jesus Christ.
Epi chak jou nan tanp lan, sòti nan yon kay a yon lòt, yo te kontinye enstwi ak preche Jésus kòm Kris la.
