Acts 4
1 As they spoke to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came to them,
Vaprista nomukuru wavarindi vetemberi navaSadhusi vakauya kuna Petro naJohani pavakanga vachiri kutaura navanhu.
2 being upset because they taught the people and proclaimed in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
Vakakanganisika zvikuru nokuti vapostori vakanga vachidzidzisa vanhu uye vachiparidza kumuka kwavakafa muna Jesu.
3 They laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was now evening.
Vakabata Petro naJohani, uye nokuda kwokuti aiva manheru, vakavaisa mujeri kusvikira zuva raitevera.
4 But many of those who heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.
Asi vazhinji vakanzwa shoko vakatenda, uye varume vakasvika zviuru zvinenge zvishanu pauwandu.
5 In the morning, their rulers, elders, and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem.
Fume mangwana, vabati, vakuru navadzidzisi vomurayiro vakasangana muJerusarema.
6 Annas the high priest was there, with Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and as many as were relatives of the high priest.
Anasi muprista mukuru aivapo, uye Kayafasi Johani, Arekizanda navamwe varume vemhuri yomuprista mukuru vaivapowo.
7 When they had stood Peter and John in the middle of them, they enquired, “By what power, or in what name, have you done this?”
Vakaita kuti Petro naJohani vauyiswe pamberi pavo vakatanga kuvabvunza vachiti, “Makaita izvi nesimba raani kana kuti nezita raani?”
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “You rulers of the people and elders of Israel,
Ipapo Petro azere noMweya Mutsvene, akati kwavari, “Imi vabati nemi vakuru vavanhu,
9 if we are examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed,
kana tadanwa nhasi nokuda kwebasa rakanaka rakaitwa kuchirema uye tichibvunzwa kuti akaporeswa sei,
10 may it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, this man stands here before you whole in him.
zvino muzive izvi, imi navanhu vose veIsraeri kuti: Zvakaitwa nezita raJesu Kristu weNazareta, iye wamakaroverera pamuchinjikwa asi Mwari akamumutsa kubva kuvakafa, ndiye aita kuti murume uyu amire pamberi penyu apora kudai.
11 He is ‘the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.’
Ndiye “‘ibwe ramakaramba imi vavaki, rakazova musoro wekona.’
12 There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given amongst men, by which we must be saved!”
Ruponeso haruwanikwi kuna ani zvake, nokuti hakuna rimwe zita pasi pedenga rakapiwa kuvanhu ratingaponeswa naro.”
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled. They recognised that they had been with Jesus.
Vakati vachiona kusatya kwaPetro naJohani uye vachiziva kuti vakanga vasina kudzidza, vachingova vanhuwo zvavo, vakakatyamara uye vakarangarira kuti varume ava vaiva naJesu.
14 Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
Asi vachiona murume akanga aporeswa amire navo ipapo, havana chavakagona kutaura.
15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred amongst themselves,
Saka vakavarayira kuti vabve paDare Guru, uye ivo vakasara vachitaurirana.
16 saying, “What shall we do to 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 can’t deny it.
Vakati, “Tichaita seiko navarume ava? Munhu wose anogara muJerusarema anoziva kuti vakaita chishamiso chikuru uye isu hatigoni kuzviramba.
17 But so that this spreads no further amongst the people, let’s threaten them, that from now on they don’t speak to anyone in this name.”
Asi kuti chinhu ichi chirege kuramba chichipararira pakati pavanhu, tinofanira kuyambira varume ava kuti varege kutaura kuna ani zvake muzita iri.”
18 They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
Ipapo vakavadanazve kuti vapinde ndokuvarayira kuti varege kutaura kana kutongodzidzisa muzita raJesu.
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,
Asi Petro naJohani vakapindura vakati, “Tongai henyu imi kana zvakarurama pamberi paMwari kuti titeerere imi kupfuura Mwari.
20 for we can’t help telling the things which we saw and heard.”
Nokuti isu hatigoni kurega kutaura pamusoro pezvatakaona nezvatakanzwa.”
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.
Shure kwokuvayambirazve vakavarega vakaenda. Havana kugona kufunga kuti vangavaranga sei, nokuti vanhu vose vakanga vachirumbidza Mwari pamusoro pezvakanga zvaitika.
22 For the man on whom this miracle of healing was performed was more than forty years old.
Nokuti murume akanga aporeswa nechishamiso akanga ana makore anodarika makumi mana.
23 Being let go, they came to their own company and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.
Vakati vasunungurwa, Petro naJohani vakadzokera kuvanhu vokwavo vakandovaudza zvose zvakanga zvarehwa navaprista vakuru navakuru.
24 When they heard it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord and said, “O Lord, you are God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them;
Vakati vanzwa izvi, vakasimudza manzwi pamwe chete kuna Mwari vakanyengetera vachiti, “Ishe Mwari, imi makaita denga nenyika negungwa, nezvose zvirimo.
25 who by the mouth of your servant David, said, ‘Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
Makataura noMweya Mutsvene kubudikidza nomuromo womuranda wenyu, baba vedu Dhavhidhi, muchiti: “‘Ndudzi dzinoitireko hasha uye vanhu vanofungireiko zvisina maturo?
26 The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers plot together, against the Lord, and against his Christ.’
Madzimambo enyika azvigadzirira uye vabati vanoungana pamwe chete kuzorwa naIshe uye noMuzodziwa Wake.’
27 “For truly, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed,
Zvirokwazvo Herodhi naPondiasi Pirato vakaungana pamwe chete neveDzimwe Ndudzi uye navanhu veIsraeri muguta rino kuzorangana kurwisa Jesu muranda wenyu mutsvene, iye wamakazodza.
28 to do whatever your hand and your counsel foreordained to happen.
Vakaita zvakanga zvatongwa nesimba renyu uye nokuda kwenyu kuti zvichaitika.
29 Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,
Zvino, Ishe, tarirai kutyisidzira kwavo mugobatsira varanda venyu kuti vataure shoko renyu nokushinga kukuru.
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.”
Tambanudzai ruoko rwenyu kuti muporese uye muite zviratidzo nezvishamiso kubudikidza nezita raJesu muranda wenyu mutsvene.”
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.
Shure kwokunge vanyengetera, nzvimbo yavakanga vakaungana pairi yakazungunuswa. Uye vose vakazadzwa noMweya Mutsvene vakataura shoko raMwari vasingatyi.
32 The multitude 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.
Vatendi vose vakanga vano mwoyo mumwe nendangariro imwe. Hakuna aiti chimwe chezvaaiva nazvo ndechake oga, asi vakagovana zvose zvavakanga vanazvo.
33 With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all.
Vapostori vakaramba vachipupura nesimba kumuka kwaIshe Jesu, uye nyasha huru dzaiva pamusoro pavo.
34 For neither was there amongst 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,
Pakanga pasina vanoshayiwa pakati pavo. Nokuti nguva nenguva vaya vakanga vane minda kana dzimba vakazvitengesa, vakauyisa mari yezvavakatengesa
35 and laid them at the apostles’ feet; and distribution was made to each, according as anyone had need.
vakazviisa patsoka dzavapostori, uye yakagoverwa kuna ani zvake sokushayiwa kwake.
36 Joses, who by the apostles was also called Barnabas (which is, being interpreted, Son of Encouragement), a Levite, a man of Cyprus by race,
Josefa, muRevhi aibva kuSaipurasi, uyo akatumidzwa navapostori kunzi Bhanabhasi (kureva kuti Mwanakomana woKukurudzira),
37 having a field, sold it and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
akatengesa munda wake akauya nemari akaiisa pamberi pavapostori.
