Acts 4
1 As they spoke to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came to them,
Mientras ellos hablaban al pueblo, llegaron [los] sacerdotes, el jefe de la guardia del Templo y los saduceos.
2 being upset because they taught the people and proclaimed in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
Estaban muy enojados porque ellos proclamaban al pueblo la resurrección de entre [los] muertos por medio de Jesús.
3 They laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was now evening.
Los detuvieron y, como ya era tarde, los pusieron bajo custodia hasta el día siguiente.
4 But many of those who heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.
Muchos de los que oyeron la Palabra creyeron, de los cuales como 5.000 fueron varones.
5 It happened in the morning, that their rulers, elders, and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem.
Al día siguiente se reunieron en Jerusalén los magistrados, los ancianos, los escribas,
6 Annas the high priest was there, with Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and as many as were relatives of the high priest.
y Anás, sumo sacerdote, Caifás, Juan, Alejandro y todos los del linaje de los sumos sacerdotes.
7 When they had stood them in the middle of them, they inquired, "By what power, or in what name, have you done this?"
Los pusieron en medio y les preguntaron: ¿Con cuál autoridad o en nombre de quién hicieron esto?
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, "Rulers of the people, and elders,
Entonces Pedro, lleno del Espíritu Santo, les respondió: Gobernantes del pueblo y ancianos:
9 if we are examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed,
Se nos interroga con respecto al beneficio hecho a un hombre enfermo: ¿cómo fue sanado?
10 be it known to you all, and to all the children of Israel, that in the name of Jesus (the) Messiah the Nazorean, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, in him does this man stand here before you whole.
Sepan todos ustedes y todo el pueblo de Israel, que por el Nombre de Jesucristo de Nazaret, a Quien ustedes crucificaron, a Quien Dios resucitó, este [hombre ]está sano delante de ustedes.
11 This one is the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.
Éste [Jesús] es La Piedra desechada por ustedes los constructores, La cual [se] convirtió en Cabeza de ángulo.
12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among people by which we must be saved."
En ningún otro hay salvación, porque no hay otro nombre bajo el cielo dado a [los] hombres, en Quien tenemos que ser salvos.
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they were amazed. They recognized that they had been with Jesus.
Cuando percibieron la osadía de Pedro y Juan, y pensaron que eran hombres iliteratos y no educados, se asombraban y reconocían que habían estado con Jesús.
14 Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
Al ver al hombre sanado en pie con ellos, nada podían replicar.
15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
Les ordenaron que salieran del Tribunal Supremo y discutían:
16 saying, "What should we do with these men? Because indeed a notable miracle has been done through them, as can be plainly seen by all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.
¿Qué haremos a estos hombres? Porque ciertamente una notable señal milagrosa sucedió por medio de ellos, visible a todos los que habitan Jerusalén, y no se puede negar.
17 But so this does not spread any further among the people, let us severely threaten them, that from now on they do not speak to anyone in this name."
Sin embargo, para que no se divulgue más hacia el pueblo, amenacémoslos a fin de evitar que hablen más en este Nombre a alguno.
18 They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
Los llamaron y [les] ordenaron que en absoluto no proclamaran ni enseñaran en el Nombre de Jesús.
19 But Peter and John answered them, "Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, judge for yourselves,
Pedro y Juan respondieron: Juzguen si es justo delante de Dios escucharlos a ustedes y no a Él,
20 for we cannot help telling the things which we saw and heard."
porque nosotros no podemos callar lo que vimos y oímos.
21 When they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people; for everyone glorified God for that which was done.
Entonces ellos, al no hallar cómo castigarlos por causa del pueblo, los amenazaron aún más y los soltaron. Todos glorificaban a Dios por lo sucedido,
22 For the man on whom this miracle of healing was performed was more than forty years old.
porque el hombre en quien ocurrió este milagro de la curación tenía más de 40 años.
23 Being let go, they came to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.
Cuando los soltaron, fueron a los suyos e informaron todo lo que les dijeron los principales sacerdotes y los ancianos.
24 When they heard it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, "Lord, you made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them.
Después de escucharlos, alzaron [la] voz unánimes a Dios: Soberano, Tú que hiciste el cielo, la tierra, el mar y todo lo que hay en ellos,
25 You said through the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David your servant: 'Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot in vain?
que dijiste por [el] Espíritu Santo a tu esclavo, nuestro antepasado David: ¿Por qué se amotinan las gentes, Y los pueblos maquinan cosas vanas?
26 The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers take council together, against the Lord, and against his Messiah.'
Se levantaron los reyes de la tierra, Y sus gobernantes consultaron unidos Contra el Señor y contra su Ungido.
27 "For truly, in this city against your holy servant, Jesus, whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the non-Jews and the people of Israel, were gathered together
Porque en verdad Herodes y Poncio Pilato se reunieron con gentiles y pueblos de Israel en esta ciudad contra tu santo Siervo Jesús, a Quien ungiste
28 to do whatever your hand and your council foreordained to happen.
para hacer cuanto tu mano y designio predestinaron para que sucediera.
29 Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,
Ahora Señor, mira sus amenazas y concede a tus esclavos que hablen tu Palabra con toda osadía.
30 while you stretch out your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of your holy Servant Jesus."
Extiende tu mano para que se realicen sanidades, señales milagrosas y prodigios por medio del Nombre de tu santo Siervo Jesús.
31 When they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were gathered together. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
Después de hablar ellos con Dios, tembló el lugar donde estaban reunidos, y todos fueron llenos del Espíritu Santo y hablaban con osadía la Palabra de Dios.
32 And the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul. Not one of them claimed that anything of the things which he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common.
La congregación de los que creyeron tenía un corazón y un alma. Ninguno decía que poseía algo, sino todas las cosas les eran de propiedad común.
33 With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all.
Los apóstoles daban el testimonio de la resurrección del Señor Jesús con gran poder, y había abundante gracia sobre todos ellos.
34 For neither was there among them any who lacked, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold,
Porque no había algún empobrecido entre ellos, pues quienes tenían tierras o casas las vendían y colocaban el valor de lo vendido
35 and put them at the apostles' feet, and distribution was made to each, according as anyone had need.
a los pies de los apóstoles. Era distribuido a cada uno según su necesidad.
36 Joseph, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas (which is translated, Son of Encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus by birth,
José, un levita chipriota llamado por los apóstoles Bernabé, que significa hijo de consolación,
37 having a field, sold it, and brought the money and put it at the apostles' feet.
quien tenía un campo, lo vendió y llevó el dinero a los apóstoles.
