Acts 4
1 And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,
Pandan yo t ap pale ak pèp la, prèt avèk kaptenn gad tanp lan avèk Sadiseyen yo te rive kote yo.
2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
Yo te byen deranje paske yo t ap enstwi pèp la e t ap pwoklame nan non Jésus rezirèksyon a lanmò yo.
3 And they laid hands on them, and put [them] in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.
Yo te mete men sou yo, e te mete yo nan prizon pou jis rive nan demen, paske li te gen tan fènwa.
4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.
Men anpil nan sila yo ki te tande mesaj la te kwè, e fòs kantite moun ki te kwè yo te vini toupre senk-mil.
5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,
Nan landemen, chèf yo, avèk ansyen ak skrib yo te reyini ansanm nan Jérusalem.
6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.
Anne, wo prèt la te la, avèk Caïphe, Jean, Alexandre, ak tout sila ki te desandan wo prèt yo.
7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?
Lè yo te kanpe yo nan mitan yo, yo te kòmanse mande yo: “Pa ki pouvwa, oswa nan ki non nou te fè sa a?”
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
Alò, Pierre ranpli avèk Lespri Sen an, te di yo: “Chèf ak ansyen a pèp la,
9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;
Si nou parèt devan tribinal jodi a pou benefis ki fèt a yon moun malad, kòmsi, kijan nonm sa a te fè geri,
10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, [even] by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
kite li byen konnen pami nou tout, ak tout Israël, ke pa non a Jésus Kri, Nazareyen ke nou te krisifye a, ke Bondye te fè leve soti nan lanmò a, pa non de sila a menm, mesye sa a a kanpe devan nou an bòn sante.
11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
‘Se Li menm ki wòch ki te rejte pa nou menm ki t ap bati yo, men ki vin fè wòch ang prensipal la.’
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
“Konsa, pa gen sali nan okenn lòt. Paske nanpwen lòt non anba syèl la ki bay pami lòm pa kilès nou dwe sove.”
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
Alò, lè yo te wè konfyans a Pierre avèk Jean, e te konprann ke yo pa t gen anpil edikasyon ni enstriksyon, yo te etone. Yo te rekonèt yo kon moun ki te avèk Jésus yo.
14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
Epi lè yo te wè mesye ki te geri a te kanpe la avèk yo, yo pa t gen repons pou bay.
15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
Men lè yo fin mande yo kite konsèy la, yo te fè konferans ansanm.
16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them [is] manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we can not deny [it].
Yo te di: “Alò kisa pou nou fè avèk mesye sa yo? Paske li byen klè a tout sila ki rete Jérusalem yo ke yon mirak byen enpòtan te fèt pa yo, e nou pa kapab di ke se pa vrè.
17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
“Men pou sa pa rive pi lwen pami pèp la, annou avèti yo pou yo pa pale ankò a okenn moun nan non sila a.”
18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
Yo te rele yo, e te kòmande yo pou yo pa pale ni enstwi menm nan non Jésus a.
19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.
Men Pierre avèk Jean te reponn yo e te di: “Si li bon devan Bondye pou obeyi a nou menm olye a Bondye, nou mèt jije.
20 For we can not but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
Paske nou menm, nou pa kapab sispann pale sa ke nou te wè ak tande.”
21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all [men] glorified God for that which was done.
Konsa, lè yo te fin menase yo anplis, yo te lage yo, paske yo pa t kapab twouve baz pou pini yo, e akoz perèz a pèp la, paske yo tout t ap bay Bondye glwa pou sa ki te rive a.
22 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed.
Paske mesye a ki te resevwa mirak sila a, te gen plis ke karant ane.
23 And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.
Lè yo te fin lage yo, yo te ale bò kote moun pa yo, e te rapòte a tout moun sa ke chèf prèt yo avèk ansyen yo te di yo.
24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou [art] God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
Lè yo te tande sa, yo te leve vwa yo a Bondye ansanm, e te di: “O Bondye, se te Ou menm ki te fè syèl la ak tè a, lanmè, ak tout sa ki ladann,
25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
ki pa Lespri Sen an, selon bouch a Zansèt nou David te di: ‘Poukisa nasyon yo anraje konsa; e poukisa pèp yo anvizaje yon bagay anven?
26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
Wa sou latè yo ap pran pòz yo e gwo chèf yo ap mete tèt yo ansanm kont Senyè a ak kont Kris Li a.’
27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,
“Paske vrèman, nan vil sa a, yo te rasanble ansanm kont sèvitè sen Ou an, Jésus, ke ou menm te onksyone a; Hérode ak Ponce Pilate ansanm avèk nasyon payen yo ak pèp Israël la,
28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
pou fè nenpòt bagay ke men Ou ak volonte Ou te deja planifye, pou fèt.
29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
E koulye a, Senyè, byen gade menas ke yo fè, e kite sèvitè ki mare ak Ou yo pale pawòl Ou avèk tout konfyans,
30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
pandan W ap lonje men Ou pou fè gerizon sign ak mirak yo k ap fèt nan non a sèvitè Sen Ou an, Jésus.”
31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
Lè yo te fin priye, plas kote yo te reyini an te vin souke. Yo tout te ranpli avèk Lespri Sen an, e yo te pale pawòl Bondye a avèk kouraj.
32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any [of them] that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
Tout nan gran foul a ki te kwè yo te vin yon sèl nan kè ak nanm. Pa t gen youn nan yo ki te gen byen ki te reklame pou pwòp tèt yo, men tout bagay te pou tout moun.
33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
Avèk gran pouvwa, apòt yo t ap bay temwayaj a rezirèksyon Jésus Kris la, e lagras an abondans te vini sou yo tout.
34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
Paske pa t gen yon moun pami yo ki te nan bezwen, pwiske sila ki te mèt tè yo oubyen kay yo te vann yo e pote benefis a vant lan bay,
35 And laid [them] down at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
pou mete yo nan pye apòt yo. Konsa, yo te distribiye a chak en ki te gen nenpòt bezwen.
36 And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation, ) a Levite, [and] of the country of Cyprus,
Joseph, yon Levit ki te ne an Chypre ke yo te rele osi Barnabas, pa apòt yo, ki vle di Fis Ankourajman an
37 Having land, sold [it], and brought the money, and laid [it] at the apostles’ feet.
te gen yon mòso tè. Li te vann li e te pote kòb la mete l nan pye apòt yo.
