< Acts 5 >
1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sappirah, his wife, sold a possession,
tadā anāniyanāmaka ēkō janō yasya bhāryyāyā nāma saphīrā sa svādhikāraṁ vikrīya
2 and kept back part of the price, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part, and put it at the emissaries' feet.
svabhāryyāṁ jñāpayitvā tanmūlyasyaikāṁśaṁ saṅgōpya sthāpayitvā tadanyāṁśamātramānīya prēritānāṁ caraṇēṣu samarpitavān|
3 But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Ruach ha-Kodesh, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
tasmāt pitarōkathayat hē anāniya bhūmē rmūlyaṁ kiñcit saṅgōpya sthāpayituṁ pavitrasyātmanaḥ sannidhau mr̥ṣāvākyaṁ kathayituñca śaitān kutastavāntaḥkaraṇē pravr̥ttimajanayat?
4 While you kept it, did not it remain your own? After it was sold, was not it in your power? How is it that you have conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to people, but to God."
sā bhūmi ryadā tava hastagatā tadā kiṁ tava svīyā nāsīt? tarhi svāntaḥkaraṇē kuta ētādr̥śī kukalpanā tvayā kr̥tā? tvaṁ kēvalamanuṣyasya nikaṭē mr̥ṣāvākyaṁ nāvādīḥ kintvīśvarasya nikaṭē'pi|
5 Ananias, hearing these words, fell down and died. Great fear came on all who heard it.
ētāṁ kathāṁ śrutvaiva sō'nāniyō bhūmau patan prāṇān atyajat, tadvr̥ttāntaṁ yāvantō lōkā aśr̥ṇvan tēṣāṁ sarvvēṣāṁ mahābhayam ajāyat|
6 The young men arose and wrapped him up, and they carried him out and buried him.
tadā yuvalōkāstaṁ vastrēṇācchādya bahi rnītvā śmaśānē'sthāpayan|
7 About three hours later, his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
tataḥ praharaikānantaraṁ kiṁ vr̥ttaṁ tannāvagatya tasya bhāryyāpi tatra samupasthitā|
8 Peter answered her, "Tell me whether you sold the land for so much." She said, "Yes, for so much."
tataḥ pitarastām apr̥cchat, yuvābhyām ētāvanmudrābhyō bhūmi rvikrītā na vā? ētatvaṁ vada; tadā sā pratyavādīt satyam ētāvadbhyō mudrābhya ēva|
9 But Peter asked her, "How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Ruach of the Lord? Look, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out."
tataḥ pitarōkathayat yuvāṁ kathaṁ paramēśvarasyātmānaṁ parīkṣitum ēkamantraṇāvabhavatāṁ? paśya yē tava patiṁ śmaśānē sthāpitavantastē dvārasya samīpē samupatiṣṭhanti tvāmapi bahirnēṣyanti|
10 She fell down immediately at his feet, and died. The young men came in and found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her by her husband.
tataḥ sāpi tasya caraṇasannidhau patitvā prāṇān atyākṣīt| paścāt tē yuvānō'bhyantaram āgatya tāmapi mr̥tāṁ dr̥ṣṭvā bahi rnītvā tasyāḥ patyuḥ pārśvē śmaśānē sthāpitavantaḥ|
11 Great fear came on the whole congregation, and on all who heard these things.
tasmāt maṇḍalyāḥ sarvvē lōkā anyalōkāśca tāṁ vārttāṁ śrutvā sādhvasaṁ gatāḥ|
12 By the hands of the emissaries many signs and wonders were done among the people. They were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.
tataḥ paraṁ prēritānāṁ hastai rlōkānāṁ madhyē bahvāścaryyāṇyadbhutāni karmmāṇyakriyanta; tadā śiṣyāḥ sarvva ēkacittībhūya sulēmānō 'lindē sambhūyāsan|
13 None of the rest dared to join them, however the people honored them.
tēṣāṁ saṅghāntargō bhavituṁ kōpi pragalbhatāṁ nāgamat kintu lōkāstān samādriyanta|
14 More believers were added to the Lord, crowds of both men and women.
striyaḥ puruṣāśca bahavō lōkā viśvāsya prabhuṁ śaraṇamāpannāḥ|
15 They even carried out the sick into the streets, and put them on cots and mats, so that as Peter came by at the least his shadow would fall on some of them.
pitarasya gamanāgamanābhyāṁ kēnāpi prakārēṇa tasya chāyā kasmiṁścijjanē lagiṣyatītyāśayā lōkā rōgiṇaḥ śivikayā khaṭvayā cānīya pathi pathi sthāpitavantaḥ|
16 Crowds also came together from the cities around Jerusalem, bringing sick people, and those who were tormented by unclean spirits: and they were all healed.
caturdiksthanagarēbhyō bahavō lōkāḥ sambhūya rōgiṇō'pavitrabhutagrastāṁśca yirūśālamam ānayan tataḥ sarvvē svasthā akriyanta|
17 But the cohen hagadol rose up, and all those who were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with jealousy,
anantaraṁ mahāyājakaḥ sidūkināṁ matagrāhiṇastēṣāṁ sahacarāśca
18 and laid hands on the emissaries, and put them in public custody.
mahākrōdhāntvitāḥ santaḥ prēritān dhr̥tvā nīcalōkānāṁ kārāyāṁ baddhvā sthāpitavantaḥ|
19 But an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors by night, and brought them out, and said,
kintu rātrau paramēśvarasya dūtaḥ kārāyā dvāraṁ mōcayitvā tān bahirānīyākathayat,
20 "Go stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life."
yūyaṁ gatvā mandirē daṇḍāyamānāḥ santō lōkān pratīmāṁ jīvanadāyikāṁ sarvvāṁ kathāṁ pracārayata|
21 When they heard this, they entered into the temple about daybreak, and taught. But the cohen hagadol came, and those who were with him, and called the council together, and all the elders of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
iti śrutvā tē pratyūṣē mandira upasthāya upadiṣṭavantaḥ| tadā sahacaragaṇēna sahitō mahāyājaka āgatya mantrigaṇam isrāyēlvaṁśasya sarvvān rājasabhāsadaḥ sabhāsthān kr̥tvā kārāyāstān āpayituṁ padātigaṇaṁ prēritavān|
22 But the officers who came did not find them in the prison. They returned and reported,
tatastē gatvā kārāyāṁ tān aprāpya pratyāgatya iti vārttām avādiṣuḥ,
23 "We found the prison shut and locked, and the guards standing before the doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside."
vayaṁ tatra gatvā nirvvighnaṁ kārāyā dvāraṁ ruddhaṁ rakṣakāṁśca dvārasya bahirdaṇḍāyamānān adarśāma ēva kintu dvāraṁ mōcayitvā tanmadhyē kamapi draṣṭuṁ na prāptāḥ|
24 Now when the captain of the temple, and the chief cohanim heard these words, they were very perplexed about them and what might become of this.
ētāṁ kathāṁ śrutvā mahāyājakō mandirasya sēnāpatiḥ pradhānayājakāśca, ita paraṁ kimaparaṁ bhaviṣyatīti cintayitvā sandigdhacittā abhavan|
25 One came and told them, "Look, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people."
ētasminnēva samayē kaścit jana āgatya vārttāmētām avadat paśyata yūyaṁ yān mānavān kārāyām asthāpayata tē mandirē tiṣṭhantō lōkān upadiśanti|
26 Then the captain went with the officers, and brought them without violence, for they were afraid that the people might stone them.
tadā mandirasya sēnāpatiḥ padātayaśca tatra gatvā cēllōkāḥ pāṣāṇān nikṣipyāsmān mārayantīti bhiyā vinatyācāraṁ tān ānayan|
27 When they had brought them, they set them before the council. The cohen hagadol questioned them,
tē mahāsabhāyā madhyē tān asthāpayan tataḥ paraṁ mahāyājakastān apr̥cchat,
28 saying, "Did we not strictly command you not to teach in this name? And look, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and intend to bring this man's blood on us."
anēna nāmnā samupadēṣṭuṁ vayaṁ kiṁ dr̥ḍhaṁ na nyaṣēdhāma? tathāpi paśyata yūyaṁ svēṣāṁ tēnōpadēśēnē yirūśālamaṁ paripūrṇaṁ kr̥tvā tasya janasya raktapātajanitāparādham asmān pratyānētuṁ cēṣṭadhvē|
29 But Peter and the emissaries answered, "We must obey God rather than people.
tataḥ pitarōnyaprēritāśca pratyavadan mānuṣasyājñāgrahaṇād īśvarasyājñāgrahaṇam asmākamucitam|
30 The God of our fathers raised up Yeshua, whom you killed, hanging him on a tree.
yaṁ yīśuṁ yūyaṁ kruśē vēdhitvāhata tam asmākaṁ paitr̥ka īśvara utthāpya
31 God exalted him with his right hand to be a Leader and a Savior, to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
isrāyēlvaṁśānāṁ manaḥparivarttanaṁ pāpakṣamāñca karttuṁ rājānaṁ paritrātārañca kr̥tvā svadakṣiṇapārśvē tasyānnatim akarōt|
32 We are witnesses of these things; and so also is the Ruach ha-Kodesh, whom God has given to those who obey him."
ētasmin vayamapi sākṣiṇa āsmahē, tat kēvalaṁ nahi, īśvara ājñāgrāhibhyō yaṁ pavitram ātmanaṁ dattavān sōpi sākṣyasti|
33 But they, when they heard this, were furious, and wanted to kill them.
ētadvākyē śrutē tēṣāṁ hr̥dayāni viddhānyabhavan tatastē tān hantuṁ mantritavantaḥ|
34 But one stood up in the council, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the Law, honored by all the people, and commanded to put the men out for a little while.
ētasminnēva samayē tatsabhāsthānāṁ sarvvalōkānāṁ madhyē sukhyātō gamilīyēlnāmaka ēkō janō vyavasthāpakaḥ phirūśilōka utthāya prēritān kṣaṇārthaṁ sthānāntaraṁ gantum ādiśya kathitavān,
35 He said to them, "You men of Israel, be careful concerning these men, what you are about to do.
hē isrāyēlvaṁśīyāḥ sarvvē yūyam ētān mānuṣān prati yat karttum udyatāstasmin sāvadhānā bhavata|
36 For before these days Todah rose up, making himself out to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed, and came to nothing.
itaḥ pūrvvaṁ thūdānāmaikō jana upasthāya svaṁ kamapi mahāpuruṣam avadat, tataḥ prāyēṇa catuḥśatalōkāstasya matagrāhiṇōbhavan paścāt sa hatōbhavat tasyājñāgrāhiṇō yāvantō lōkāstē sarvvē virkīrṇāḥ santō 'kr̥takāryyā abhavan|
37 After this man, Judah of Galil rose up in the days of the enrollment, and drew away some people after him. He also perished, and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered abroad.
tasmājjanāt paraṁ nāmalēkhanasamayē gālīlīyayihūdānāmaikō jana upasthāya bahūllōkān svamataṁ grāhītavān tataḥ sōpi vyanaśyat tasyājñāgrāhiṇō yāvantō lōkā āsan tē sarvvē vikīrṇā abhavan|
38 Now I tell you, withdraw from these men, and leave them alone. For if this counsel or this work is of human origin, it will be overthrown.
adhunā vadāmi, yūyam ētān manuṣyān prati kimapi na kr̥tvā kṣāntā bhavata, yata ēṣa saṅkalpa ētat karmma ca yadi manuṣyādabhavat tarhi viphalaṁ bhaviṣyati|
39 But if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them, and you would be found even to be fighting against God."
yadīśvarādabhavat tarhi yūyaṁ tasyānyathā karttuṁ na śakṣyatha, varam īśvararōdhakā bhaviṣyatha|
40 They agreed with him. Summoning the emissaries, they beat them and commanded them not to speak in the name of Yeshua, and let them go.
tadā tasya mantraṇāṁ svīkr̥tya tē prēritān āhūya prahr̥tya yīśō rnāmnā kāmapi kathāṁ kathayituṁ niṣidhya vyasarjan|
41 They therefore departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the Name.
kintu tasya nāmārthaṁ vayaṁ lajjābhōgasya yōgyatvēna gaṇitā ityatra tē sānandāḥ santaḥ sabhāsthānāṁ sākṣād agacchan|
42 Every day, in the temple and at home, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming Yeshua, the Messiah.
tataḥ paraṁ pratidinaṁ mandirē gr̥hē gr̥hē cāviśrāmam upadiśya yīśukhrīṣṭasya susaṁvādaṁ pracāritavantaḥ|
