Acts 4

1 As they spoke to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came to them,

Pea ʻi heʻena kei lea ki he kakai, naʻe feʻohofi kiate kinaua ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mo e pule ʻoe falelotu lahi, pea mo e kau Sātusi,

2 being upset because they taught the people and proclaimed in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

He kuo nau kina ʻi heʻena ako ki he kakai, mo ʻena malangaʻaki ʻae toetuʻu ʻa Sisu mei he mate.

3 They laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was now evening.

Pea naʻa nau puke ʻakinaua, ʻo tuku ki he fale fakapōpula, kaeʻoua ke ʻaho: he kuo efiafi.

4 But many of those who heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.

Ka naʻe tui ʻae tokolahi ʻiate kinautolu naʻe fanongo ki he folofola; pea ko hono lau ʻoe kakai ko e toko nima afe nai.

5 It happened in the morning, that their rulers, elders, and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem.

Pea pehē, kuo pongipongi hake, naʻe kātoa ki Selūsalema honau kau pule, mo e mātuʻa, mo e kau tangata tohi,

6 Annas the high priest was there, with Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and as many as were relatives of the high priest.

Mo ʻAnasi ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, mo Kaiafasi, mo Sione, mo ʻAlekisānita, pea mo e kāinga kotoa pē ʻoe taulaʻeiki lahi.

7 When they had stood them in the middle of them, they inquired, "By what power, or in what name, have you done this?"

Pea kuo ʻomi ʻakinaua ki honau ʻao, naʻa nau fehuʻi, ʻo [pehē], “Ko e mālohi fē, mo e hingoa ʻo hai, kuo mo fai ai ʻae meʻa ni?”

8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, "Rulers of the people, and elders,

Pea kuo fonu ʻa Pita ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻAkimoutolu, ko e kau pule ʻoe kakai, mo e mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli,

9 if we are examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed,

Kapau ʻoku ʻekea ʻakimaua he ʻaho ni ki he ngāue lelei ki he tangata pipiki, pe ko e hā ʻae meʻa naʻe fakamoʻui ai ia;

10 be it known to you all, and to all the children of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazorean, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, in him does this man stand here before you whole.

Ke ʻilo ʻekimoutolu kotoa pē, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e huafa ʻo Sisu Kalaisi ʻo Nāsaleti, ʻaia ne mou tutuki ki he ʻakau, ka kuo fokotuʻu ia ʻe he ʻOtua mei he mate, ko ia pe kuo tuʻu ai ʻae tangata ni ʻi homou ʻao kuo haohaoa.

11 This one is the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.

‘Ko e maka eni naʻe liʻaki ʻekimoutolu ko e kau tufunga, ʻaia kuo hoko ko e fungani [maka ]tuliki.’

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."

Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha fakamoʻui ʻi ha taha kehe: he ʻoku ʻikai ke tuku mo ha hingoa ki he kakai ʻi lalo langi, ke tau moʻui ai.

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.

Pea kuo nau mamata ki he taʻemāluʻia ʻa Pita mo Sione, mo nau ʻilo ko e ongo tangata meʻavale, pea taʻepoto, pea nau ofo; pea naʻa nau ʻilo kiate kinaua, naʻa na ʻia Sisu.

14 Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.

Ka ʻi heʻenau vakai ki he tangata kuo fakamoʻui, ʻoku nau tutuʻu fakataha mo kinaua, pea ʻikai te nau faʻa lea ki ai.

15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,

Pea hili ʻenau fekau ʻakinaua ke ʻalu [siʻi ] atu mei he fakamaauʻanga, naʻa nau alea ʻiate kinautolu,

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.

‌ʻO nau pehē, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa te tau fai ki he ongo tangata ni? He kuo fai moʻoni ʻekinaua ʻae mana lahi, pea ʻoku ʻilo ia ʻekinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo ʻi Selūsalema; pea ʻoku ʻikai te tau faʻa fakaʻikai ki ai.

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."

Ka koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa kei mafola ia ʻi he kakai, ke tau fakamanaʻi ʻakinaua ʻo lahi, ke ʻoua naʻa na toe lea ki ha tangata ʻi he hingoa ni.”

18 They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

Pea naʻa nau ui ʻakinaua, ʻo fekau mālohi kiate kinaua, ke ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa na lea pe ako ʻi he hingoa ʻo Sisu.

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,

Ka naʻe lea atu kiate kinautolu ʻa Pita mo Sione, ʻo pehē, “Mou fifili, pe ʻoku lelei ʻa fē ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻa ʻema talangofua kiate kimoutolu, pē ki he ʻOtua.

20 for we cannot help telling the things which we saw and heard."

Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te ma faʻa taʻofi ʻema leaʻaki pe ʻae ngaahi meʻa kuo ma mamata mo fanongo ai.”

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.

Pea kuo nau toe fakamanaʻi, pea nau tukuange ʻakinaua, he naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ha meʻa ke tautea ai ʻakinaua, pea telia ʻae kakai: he naʻa nau fakamālō kotoa pē ki he ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa kuo fai.

22 For the man on whom this miracle of healing was performed was more than forty years old.

He kuo fāngofulu tupu ʻae taʻu ʻoe tangata, kuo fai ki ai ʻae mana fakamoʻui ni.

23 Being let go, they came to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.

Pea ʻi he tukuange ʻakinaua, naʻa na ō ki hona kāinga, ʻo fakahā kotoa pē ʻae lea ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e mātuʻa kiate kinaua.

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.

Pea kuo nau fanongo ki ai, pea nau hiki fakataha hake honau leʻo ki he ʻOtua, ʻonau pehē, “ʻE ʻEiki, ko e ʻOtua ʻa koe, naʻa ke ngaohi ʻae langi mo māmani, pea mo e tahi, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai;

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?

‌ʻA koe naʻa ke pehē ʻi he ngutu ʻo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita, ‘Ko e hā ʻoku lili ai ʻae Senitaile, pea mahalo meʻa vaʻinga ai ʻe he kakai?

26 The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers take council together, against the Lord, and against his Christ.'

Naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, pea naʻe kātoa ʻae kau pule, ʻo angatuʻu ki he ʻEiki, pea mo hono Kalaisi.’

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

He ko e moʻoni naʻe fakataha ʻa Helota, mo Ponito Pailato, mo e Senitaile, mo e kakai ʻIsileli, ʻo fakatanga ki ho ʻAlo māʻoniʻoni ko Sisu, ʻaia naʻa ke fakanofo,

28 to do whatever your hand and your council foreordained to happen.

Ke fai ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe tomuʻa tuʻutuʻuni ʻe ho nima mo hoʻo poto ke fai.

29 Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,

Pea ko eni, ʻe ʻEiki, ke ke tokanga ki heʻenau lea fakamana: pea ke tuku ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ke nau lea mālohi ʻaki hoʻo folofola,

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."

‌ʻI hoʻo mafao atu ho nima ke fakamoʻui; pea ke fai ʻae ngaahi mana mo e meʻa fakaofo ʻi he huafa ʻo ho ʻAlo māʻoniʻoni ko Sisu.”

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.

Pea hili ʻenau lotu, naʻe ngalulululu ʻae potu naʻa nau fakataha ai; pea naʻe fakapito ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻonau lea mālohi ʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua.

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.

Pea naʻe loto mo laumālie taha pē ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe tui: pea naʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe ui ʻene meʻa naʻa ne maʻu ko e meʻa ʻaʻana; ka naʻa nau meʻa taha pē.

33 With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all.

Pea naʻe fakamoʻoni ʻe he kau ʻAposetolo ʻaki ʻae mālohi lahi ʻae toetuʻu ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu: pea naʻe lahi ʻae ʻofa ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē.

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,

Pea naʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻiate kinautolu ʻe masiva: he ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe maʻu ʻae fonua pe ʻae fale, naʻe fakatau ia, pea naʻe ʻomi hono totongi ʻoe meʻa kuo fakatau,

35 and put them at the apostles' feet, and distribution was made to each, according as anyone had need.

‌ʻO tuku hifo ʻi he vaʻe ʻoe kau ʻaposetolo: pea naʻe tufaki ki he tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau masiva.

36 Joseph, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas (which is translated, Son of Encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus by birth,

Pea ko Sose [ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo ]Livai, mei he fonua ko Saipalo, ʻaia naʻe fakahingoa ʻe he kau ʻAposetolo ko Pānepasa, (ʻaia, ko hono ʻuhinga, “Ko e foha ʻoe fiemālie,”)

37 having a field, sold it, and brought the money and put it at the apostles' feet.

Naʻe fakatau ʻe ia hono potu fonua, pea ʻomi hono paʻanga, ʻo tuku ki he vaʻe ʻoe kau ʻAposetolo.
