1 When are speaking now they to the people came upon them the (priests *NK(O)*) and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees,
And while they were speaking to the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the sadducees came upon them,
2 being distressed because of teaching of theirs to the people and [their] proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection (that *NK(o)*) out from [the] dead;
being vexed that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 and they laid on them the hands and put [them] in custody until the next day; it was for evening already.
And they laid hands on them, and put them into custody till the next day: for it was now evening.
4 Many however of those having heard the word believed; and became the number of the men (about *N(k)O*) thousand five.
But many of them who heard the word, believed: and the number of the men was about five thousand.
5 It came to pass then on the next day assembling their rulers and (*no*) elders and (*no*) scribes
And on the morrow their rulers, and elders, and scribes were gathered together at Jerusalem:
6 (in *N(k)O*) Jerusalem and (Annas the high priest *N(k)O*) and (Caiaphas *N(k)O*) and (John *N(k)O*) and (Alexander *N(k)O*) and as many as were of descent high-priestly,
and with them Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest.
7 And having placed them in the midst they were inquiring; In what power or in what name did this you yourselves?
And when they had set them in the midst, they asked them, By what power, or in what name have ye done this?
8 Then Peter having been filled with [the] Spirit Holy said to them; Rulers of the people and elders (of Israel *K*)
Then Peter filled with the holy Spirit said unto them, Ye rulers of the people,
9 if we ourselves this day are being examined as to a good work [to the] man ailing, by what [means] he has been healed,
and elders of Israel, if we are this day examined about the benefit done to the impotent man,
10 known it should be to all you and to all the people of Israel that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth whom you yourselves crucified, whom God raised out from [the] dead, in Him this [man] has stood before you sound.
by what means he is cured, be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, but whom God hath raised from the dead, even by Him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11 This is the stone which having been rejected by you the (builders, *N(k)O*) which has become into head of [the] corner.’
This is the stone that was set at nought by you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12 And not there is in other no [one] the salvation; (not *N(k)O*) for name is there another under heaven which given among men by which it behooves to be saved us.
And there is salvation in no other; for there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we can be saved.
13 Seeing now the of Peter boldness and of John and having grasped that men unschooled they are and ordinary, they were astonished, They were recognizing then them that with Jesus they were being,
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were plain and illiterate men, they were amazed; and they knew them again that they had been with Jesus:
14 (And *N(k)O*) the man beholding with them already standing who healed, no [thing] they had to contradict.
but seeing the man that was cured standing with them, they had nothing to say against it.
15 Having commanded however them outside the Council to go, (they were confering *N(k)O*) with one another
Therefore they ordered them to withdraw from the council,
16 saying; What (shall we do *N(k)O*) to the men these? for truly for a noteworthy sign has come to pass through them to all those inhabiting Jerusalem [is] evident, and not we are able (to deny [it]; *N(k)O*)
and conferred among themselves, saying, What shall we do with these men? for that indeed an evident miracle hath been wrought by them is manifest to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.
17 But that not on further it may spread among the people, (threats *K*) (let us warn *NK(o)*) them no longer to speak in name this to no man.
But that it may spread no farther among the people, let us severely charge them to speak no more to any man in this name.
18 And having called them they commanded (them *k*) at not to speak nor to teach in the name of Jesus.
So they called them and commanded them not to speak at all, nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 But Peter and John answering said to them; Whether right it is before God to you to listen rather than God, you should judge.
But Peter and John answered them, and said, Whether it be right in the sight of God to obey you rather than God, judge ye:
20 not we are able for we ourselves what we have seen and we heard not to speak.
for we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
21 And having further threatened [them] they let go them nothing finding the how (they may punish *NK(o)*) them, on account of the people, because all were glorifying God for that having happened.
So they threatened them more severely, and let them go; not finding how to punish them, because of the people: for they all glorified God for that which was done.
22 of years for he was more than forty-the man on whom had taken place sign this of healing.
For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miraculous cure was wrought.
23 Having been let go now they came to [their] own and reported as much as to them the chief priests and the elders had said.
Being dismissed they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.
24 And having heard with one accord they lifted up [their] voice to God and said; Sovereign Lord, You yourself (God *K*) who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that [is] in them,

For of a truth both Herod and Pontius Pilate, the Gentiles and the people of Israel, combined against thy holy child Jesus,
28 to do as much as the hand of You and the purpose of You determined beforehand to happen.
(whom Thou hast anointed, ) to do whatever thy hand and thy counsel had before determined to be done.
29 And now, Lord, do look upon the threats of them and do grant to the servants of You with boldness all to speak the word of You
And now, Lord, behold their threatenings; and give unto thy servants to speak thy word with all freedom, while Thou art stretching forth thy hand to heal,
30 in that the hand of You stretching out You for healing and signs and wonders to take place through the name of the holy servant of You Jesus.
and while signs and wonders are done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

And the heart and soul of the multitude that believed was one: no one called any of his possessions his own property, but they had all things common.

Neither was there any indigent person among them; for as many as were proprietors of lands or houses, sold them and brought the prices of what were sold,
35 and were laying [them] at the feet of the apostles, distribution was made then to each just as would anyone need had.
and laid them at the apostles feet; and distribution was made to every one according to their necessity.
