Acts 4
1 And as they are speaking to the people, there came to them the priests, and the magistrate of the temple, and the Sadducees—
E enquanto eles ainda estavam falando ao povo, vieram sobre eles os sacerdotes, e o oficial do Templo, e os saduceus,
2 being grieved because of their teaching the people, and preaching in Jesus the resurrection out of the dead—
Muito incomodados por eles ensinarem ao povo, e anunciarem no [nome] de Jesus a ressurreição dos mortos.
3 and they laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was evening already;
E puseram as mãos sobre eles, e os puseram na prisão até o dia seguinte, porque já era tarde.
4 and many of those hearing the word believed, and the number of the men became, as it were, five thousand.
E muitos dos que ouviram a palavra, creram; e era o número dos homens de cerca de cinco mil.
5 And it came to pass the next day, there were gathered together of them the rulers, and elders, and scribes, to Jerusalem,
E aconteceu no dia seguinte, que os chefes, e anciãos, e escribas, se reuniram em Jerusalém;
6 and Annas the chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the family of the chief priest,
E Anás, o sumo sacerdote, e Caifás, e João, e Alexandre, e todos quantos havia da linhagem do governo sacerdotal.
7 and having set them in the midst, they were inquiring, “In what power, or in what name did you do this?”
E pondo-os no meio, perguntaram [-lhes]: Por meio de que poder ou por qual nome vós fizestes isto?
8 Then Peter, having been filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: “Rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
Então Pedro, cheio do Espírito Santo, lhes disse: Chefes do povo, e anciões de Israel,
9 if we are examined today concerning the good deed to the ailing man, by whom he has been saved,
Se hoje somos interrogados quanto a uma boa ação [feita] a um enfermo, pela qual este foi curado;
10 be it known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised out of the dead, in Him has this one stood by before you whole.
Seja conhecido a todos vós, e a todos o povo de Israel, que pelo nome de Jesus Cristo, o nazareno, aquele que vós crucificastes, ao qual Deus ressuscitou dos mortos, por ele este [homem] está são diante de vós.
11 This is the stone that was set at nothing by you—the builders, that became head of a corner;
Este é a pedra que foi desprezada por vós, edificadores; a qual foi feita por cabeça de esquina.
12 and there is not salvation in any other, for there is no other name under Heaven that has been given among men, in which it is required of us to be saved.”
E em nenhum outro há salvação; porque nenhum outro nome há abaixo do céu, dado entre os seres humanos, em quem devemos ser salvos.
13 And beholding the openness of Peter and John, and having perceived that they are illiterate men and commoners, they were wondering—they were also taking knowledge of them that they had been with Jesus—
E eles, ao verem a ousadia de Pedro, e de João; e informados que eles eram homens sem instrução e ordinários, maravilharam-se; e eles sabiam que eles tinham estado com Jesus.
14 and seeing the man standing with them who has been healed, they had nothing to say against [it],
E vendo estar com eles o homem que tinha sido curado, nada tinham a dizer contra [eles].
15 and having commanded them to go away out of the Sanhedrin, they took counsel with one another,
E mandando-os saírem do supremo conselho, discutiam entre si,
16 saying, “What will we do to these men? Because that, indeed, a notable sign has been done through them [is] apparent to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, and we are not able to deny [it];
Dizendo: O que faremos a estes homens? Porque um sinal notório foi feito por eles, manifesto a todos os que habitam em Jerusalém, e não podemos negar.
17 but that it may spread no further toward the people, let us strictly threaten them to no longer speak in this Name to any man.”
Mas para que [esta notícia] não seja ainda mais divulgada entre o povo, façamos sérias ameaças a eles, para que nunca mais falem a ninguém neste nome.
18 And having called them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor to teach, in the Name of Jesus,
E chamando-os, ordenaram-lhes que nunca mais falassem nem ensinassem no nome de Jesus.
19 and Peter and John answering to them said, “Whether it is righteous before God to listen to you rather than to God, judge;
Mas, respondendo Pedro, e João, disseram-lhes: Julgai se é justo diante de Deus, ouvir a vós mais do que a Deus;
20 for we cannot but speak what we saw and heard.”
Porque nós não podemos deixar de falar daquilo que temos visto e ouvido.
21 And they having further threatened [them], let them go, finding no way how they may punish them, because of the people, because all were glorifying God for that which has been done,
Mas eles, tendo os ameaçado ainda mais, nada acharam [de motivo] para os castigar, e os deixaram ir por causa do povo; porque todos glorificavam a Deus pelo que tinha acontecido.
22 for above forty years of age was the man on whom had been done this sign of the healing.
Porque era de mais de quarenta anos o homem em quem este milagre de cura tinha sido feito.
23 And being let go, they went to their own friends, and declared whatever the chief priests and the elders said to them,
E eles, tendo sido soltos, vieram aos seus [companheiros], e lhes contaram tudo o que os chefes dos sacerdotes e os anciãos tinham lhes dito.
24 and they having heard, lifted up the voice to God with one accord and said, “LORD, You [are] God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all that [are] in them,
E eles, ao ouvirem [isto], levantaram concordantes a voz a Deus, e disseram: Senhor, tu és o Deus que fizeste o céu, a terra, o mar, e todas as coisas que neles há;
25 who, through the mouth of Your servant David, said, Why did nations rage, and peoples meditate vain things?
Que pelo Espírito Santo por meio da boca de nosso pai, teu servo Davi disseste: Por que os gentios se irritam, e os povos gastam seus pensamentos em coisas vãs?
26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the LORD and against His Christ;
Os reis da terra se levantaram, e os príncipes se juntaram em um mesmo [propósito] contra o Senhor, e contra o seu Ungido.
27 for gathered together of a truth against Your holy child Jesus, whom You anointed, were both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with nations and peoples of Israel,
Porque verdadeiramente contra teu Santo Filho Jesus, ao qual tu ungiste, se ajuntaram, tanto Herodes, como Pôncio Pilatos, com os gentios e os povos de Israel.
28 to do whatever Your hand and Your counsel determined before to come to pass.
Para fazerem tudo o que a tua mão e o teu conselho desde antes tinha determinado para acontecer.
29 And now, LORD, look on their threatenings, and grant to Your servants to speak Your word with all freedom,
E agora, Senhor, observa as ameaças deles, e dá a teus servos, que com toda ousadia falem tua palavra;
30 in the stretching forth of Your hand, for healing, and signs, and wonders, to come to pass through the Name of Your holy child Jesus.”
Estendendo tua mão para a cura, e que se façam sinais e milagres pelo nome de teu Santo filho Jesus.
31 And they having prayed, the place was shaken in which they were gathered together, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and were speaking the word of God with freedom,
E tendo orado, agitou-se o lugar em que eles estavam juntos, e foram todos cheios do Espírito Santo, e falavam a palavra de Deus com ousadia.
32 and of the multitude of those who believed, the heart and the soul were one, and not one was saying that anything of the things he had was his own, but all things were in common to them.
E a multidão dos que criam, era de um só oração e uma só alma; e ninguém dizia ser próprio coisa alguma de seus bens, mas todas as coisas lhes eram comuns.
33 And with great power the apostles were giving the testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, great grace was also on them all,
E com grande poder os apóstolos davam testemunho da ressurreição do Senhor Jesus; e em todos eles havia grande graça.
34 for there was not anyone among them who lacked, for as many as were possessors of fields, or houses, selling [them], were bringing the prices of the thing sold,
Porque também nenhum necessitado havia entre eles; porque todos os que possuíam propriedades de terras, ou casas, vendendo [-as], traziam o valor das coisas vendidas, e [o] depositavam junto aos pés dos apóstolos.
35 and were laying them at the feet of the apostles, and distribution was being made to each according as anyone had need.
E a cada um se repartia segundo cada qual tinha necessidade.
36 And Joses, who was surnamed by the apostles Barnabas—which is, having been interpreted, Son of Comfort—a Levite, of Cyprus by birth,
E José, chamado pelos apóstolos pelo sobrenome de Barnabé (que traduzido é filho da consolação), levita, natural do Chipre,
37 a field being his, having sold [it], brought the money and laid [it] at the feet of the apostles.
Tendo ele uma propriedade de terra, vendeu [-a], e trouxe o valor, e [o] depositou junto aos pés dos apóstolos.
