< Acts 4 >

1 And while they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,
ܘܟܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܠܐ ܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܥܡܐ ܩܡܘ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܙܕܘܩܝܐ ܘܐܪܟܘܢܐ ܕܗܝܟܠܐ
2 being indignant that they taught the people, and proclaimed in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
ܟܕ ܡܬܚܡܬܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܕܡܠܦܝܢ ܠܥܡܐ ܘܡܟܪܙܝܢ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܥܠ ܩܝܡܬܐ ܕܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܝܬܐ
3 And they laid hands upon them, and put them in prison until the next day; for it was now evening.
ܘܐܪܡܝܘ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܕܝܐ ܘܢܛܪܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܩܪܒ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܪܡܫܐ
4 Many however of those who heard the word believed; and the number of the men became five thousand.
ܘܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܗܘܘ ܡܠܬܐ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܗܘܘ ܘܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܡܢܝܢܐ ܐܝܟ ܚܡܫܐ ܐܠܦܝܢ ܓܒܪܝܢ
5 And it came to pass on the next day, that their rulers and elders and scribes,
ܘܠܝܘܡܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܬܟܢܫܘ ܐܪܟܘܢܐ ܘܩܫܝܫܐ ܘܤܦܪܐ
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.
ܘܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܪܒ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܩܝܦܐ ܘܝܘܚܢܢ ܘܐܠܟܤܢܕܪܘܤ ܘܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܢ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܕܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ
7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, did ye do this?
ܘܟܕ ܐܩܝܡܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܡܨܥܬܐ ܡܫܐܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܒܐܝܢܐ ܚܝܠ ܐܘ ܒܐܝܢܐ ܫܡ ܥܒܕܬܘܢ ܗܕܐ
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people, and elders of Israel!
ܗܝܕܝܢ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܐܬܡܠܝ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܪܟܘܢܘܗܝ ܕܥܡܐ ܘܩܫܝܫܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܫܡܥܘ
9 If we are this day examined in respect to a good deed done to a cripple, by what means he hath been restored,
ܐܢ ܚܢܢ ܝܘܡܢܐ ܡܬܕܝܢܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܥܠ ܫܦܝܪܬܐ ܕܗܘܬ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܟܪܝܗܐ ܕܒܡܢܐ ܗܢܐ ܐܬܐܤܝ
10 be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, —by him doth this man stand here before you sound.
ܗܕܐ ܬܬܝܕܥ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܠܟܠܗ ܥܡܐ ܕܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܕܒܫܡܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܢܨܪܝܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܙܩܦܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܗܘ ܕܐܩܝܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܝܬܐ ܒܗ ܒܗܘ ܗܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܢܐ ܩܕܡܝܟܘܢ ܟܕ ܚܠܝܡ
11 This is the stone which was set at nought by you the builders, which is become a cornerstone.
ܗܢܘ ܟܐܦܐ ܕܐܤܠܝܬܘܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܢܝܐ ܘܗܘ ܗܘܐ ܠܪܝܫ ܩܪܢܐ
12 And there is salvation in no other; for there is not another name under heaven, that hath been given among men, by which we must be saved.
ܘܠܝܬ ܒܐܢܫ ܐܚܪܝܢ ܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܝܬ ܫܡܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܬܚܝܬ ܫܡܝܐ ܕܐܬܝܗܒ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܕܒܗ ܘܠܐ ܠܡܚܐ
13 And when they beheld the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and common men, they wondered; and they recognized them as having been with Jesus.
ܘܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܡܠܬܗ ܕܫܡܥܘܢ ܘܕܝܘܚܢܢ ܕܥܝܢ ܒܓܠܐ ܐܡܪܘܗ ܐܤܬܟܠܘ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܤܦܪܐ ܘܗܕܝܘܛܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܬܗܪܘ ܒܗܘܢ ܘܐܫܬܘܕܥܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܥܡ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܬܗܦܟܝܢ ܗܘܘ
14 And seeing the man that had been cured standing with them, they could say nothing in reply.
ܘܚܙܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܚܓܝܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐܤܝ ܘܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܕܡ ܠܡܐܡܪ ܠܘܩܒܠܗܘܢ
15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
ܗܝܕܝܢ ܦܩܕܘ ܕܢܦܩܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܟܢܫܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ
16 saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a remarkable sign hath been wrought by them is manifest to all that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.
ܡܢܐ ܢܥܒܕ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܓܒܪܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܗܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܬܐ ܓܠܝܬܐ ܕܗܘܬ ܒܐܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܥܡܘܪܝܗ ܕܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܐܬܝܕܥܬ ܘܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢܢ ܕܢܟܦܘܪ
17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us strictly forbid them with threats to speak any longer in this name to any one.
ܐܠܐ ܕܠܐ ܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܢܦܘܩ ܒܥܡܐ ܛܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܢܬܠܚܡ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܬܘܒ ܠܐ ܢܡܠܠܘܢ ܒܫܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܠܐܢܫ ܡܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ
18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all, nor teach, in the name of Jesus.
ܘܩܪܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܦܩܕܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܠܓܡܪ ܠܐ ܢܡܠܠܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܢܠܦܘܢ ܒܫܡ ܝܫܘܥ
19 But Peter and John answered and said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken to you rather than to God, judge ye.
ܥܢܘ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܝܘܚܢܢ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܢ ܟܐܢܐ ܩܕܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܠܟܘܢ ܢܫܡܥ ܝܬܝܪ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܘܢܘ
20 For we cannot but speak the things which we saw and heard.
ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܕܡܐ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܘܫܡܥܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܡܠܠܝܘܗܝ
21 So, having further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, on account of the people; because all were glorifying God for that which had been done.
ܘܐܬܠܚܡܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܫܪܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܫܟܚܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܥܠܬܐ ܕܢܤܝܡܘܢ ܒܪܫܗܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܥܡܐ ܟܠܢܫ ܓܝܪ ܡܫܒܚ ܗܘܐ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܥܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܗܘܐ
22 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this sign of the healing had been wrought.
ܝܬܝܪ ܓܝܪ ܡܢ ܒܪ ܐܪܒܥܝܢ ܫܢܝܢ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܗܘܬ ܒܗ ܗܕܐ ܐܬܐ ܕܐܤܝܘܬܐ
23 And being released they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.
ܘܟܕ ܐܫܬܪܝܘ ܐܬܘ ܠܘܬ ܐܚܝܗܘܢ ܘܐܫܬܥܝܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܟܠ ܡܐ ܕܐܡܪܘ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܩܫܝܫܐ
24 And on hearing it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art he that made heaven and earth and sea, and all things that are in them;
ܘܗܢܘܢ ܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܐܟܚܕ ܐܪܝܡܘ ܩܠܗܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܥܒܕܬ ܫܡܝܐ ܘܐܪܥܐ ܘܝܡܡܐ ܘܟܠ ܕܐܝܬ ܒܗܘܢ
25 who by the mouth of thy servant David said, “Why did the heathen rage, and the peoples meditate vain things?
ܘܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܕܡܠܠܬ ܒܝܕ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܒܦܘܡ ܕܘܝܕ ܥܒܕܟ ܠܡܢܐ ܪܓܫܘ ܥܡܡܐ ܘܐܡܘܬܐ ܪܢܝ ܤܪܝܩܘܬܐ
26 The kings of the earth came up, and the rulers assembled together, against the Lord, and against his Anointed.”
ܩܡܘ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܘܫܠܝܛܢܐ ܘܐܬܡܠܟܘ ܐܟܚܕܐ ܥܠ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܥܠ ܡܫܝܚܗ
27 For in truth against thy holy servant Jesus, whom thou didst anoint, did both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the gentiles, and the peoples of Israel, assemble in this city,
ܐܬܟܢܫܘ ܓܝܪ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܒܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܥܠ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܒܪܟ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܐܢܬ ܡܫܚܬ ܗܪܘܕܤ ܘܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܥܡ ܥܡܡܐ ܘܟܢܫܐ ܕܐܝܤܪܝܠ
28 to do whatever thy hand and thy will before determined to be done.
ܠܡܥܒܕ ܟܠ ܡܐ ܕܐܝܕܟ ܘܨܒܝܢܟ ܩܕܡ ܪܫܡ ܕܢܗܘܐ
29 And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings, and grant to thy servants that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
ܘܐܦ ܗܫܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܚܘܪ ܘܚܙܝ ܠܠܘܚܡܝܗܘܢ ܘܗܒ ܠܥܒܕܝܟ ܕܥܝܢ ܒܓܠܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܡܟܪܙܝܢ ܡܠܬܟ
30 while thou stretchest forth thy hand to heal, and signs and wonders are wrought through the name of thy holy servant Jesus.
ܟܕ ܐܝܕܟ ܡܘܫܛ ܐܢܬ ܠܐܤܘܬܐ ܘܠܓܒܪܘܬܐ ܘܠܐܬܘܬܐ ܕܢܗܘܝܢ ܒܫܡܗ ܕܒܪܟ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܝܫܘܥ
31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
ܘܟܕ ܒܥܘ ܘܐܬܟܫܦܘ ܐܬܬܙܝܥ ܐܬܪܐ ܕܒܗ ܟܢܝܫܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܘܐܬܡܠܝܘ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܘܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܝܢ ܒܓܠܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ
32 And the multitude of those who believed were of one heart, and of one soul; and not one of them said that aught of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܟܢܫܐ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܗܝܡܢܘ ܗܘܘ ܚܕܐ ܢܦܫ ܘܚܕ ܪܥܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܐܡܪ ܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܢܟܤܐ ܕܩܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܕܝܠܗ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܓܘܐ ܗܘܐ
33 And with great power did the apostles give their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus; and great grace was upon them all.
ܘܒܚܝܠܐ ܪܒܐ ܡܤܗܕܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܗܢܘܢ ܫܠܝܚܐ ܥܠ ܩܝܡܬܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܬ ܥܡ ܟܠܗܘܢ
34 For there was no one among them that was in want; for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
ܘܐܢܫ ܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܗܘܢ ܕܨܪܝܟ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܩܢܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܩܘܪܝܐ ܘܒܬܐ ܡܙܒܢܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܘܡܝܬܝܢ ܕܡܝܐ ܕܡܕܡ ܕܡܙܕܒܢ
35 and laid them at the feet of the apostles; and distribution was made to every one, according as he had need.
ܘܤܝܡܝܢ ܠܘܬ ܪܓܠܝܗܘܢ ܕܫܠܝܚܐ ܘܡܬܝܗܒ ܗܘܐ ܠܐܢܫ ܐܢܫ ܐܝܟ ܡܕܡ ܕܤܢܝܩ ܗܘܐ
36 And Joseph, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, when interpreted, Son of consolation, ) a Levite, born in Cyprus,
ܝܘܤܦ ܕܝܢ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܟܢܝ ܒܪܢܒܐ ܡܢ ܫܠܝܚܐ ܕܡܬܬܪܓܡ ܒܪܐ ܕܒܘܝܐܐ ܠܘܝܐ ܡܢ ܐܬܪܐ ܕܩܘܦܪܤ
37 having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the feet of the apostles.
ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܘܙܒܢܗ ܘܐܝܬܝ ܕܡܝܗ ܘܤܡ ܩܕܡ ܪܓܠܝܗܘܢ ܕܫܠܝܚܐ
