Acts 4
1 As they spoke to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came to them,
Mientras ellos hablaban al pueblo, llegaron [los] sacerdotes, el jefe de la guardia del Templo y los saduceos.
2 being upset because they taught the people and proclaimed in Yeshua the resurrection from the dead.
Estaban muy enojados porque ellos proclamaban al pueblo la resurrección de entre [los] muertos por medio de Jesús.
3 They laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was now evening.
Los detuvieron y, como ya era tarde, los pusieron bajo custodia hasta el día siguiente.
4 But many of those who heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.
Muchos de los que oyeron la Palabra creyeron, de los cuales como 5.000 fueron varones.
5 In the morning, their rulers, elders, and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem.
Al día siguiente se reunieron en Jerusalén los magistrados, los ancianos, los escribas,
6 Annas the high priest was there, with Caiaphas, Yochanan, Alexander, and as many as were relatives of the high priest.
y Anás, sumo sacerdote, Caifás, Juan, Alejandro y todos los del linaje de los sumos sacerdotes.
7 When they had stood Peter and Yochanan in the middle of them, they enquired, “By what power, or in what name, have you done this?”
Los pusieron en medio y les preguntaron: ¿Con cuál autoridad o en nombre de quién hicieron esto?
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “You rulers of the people and elders of Israel,
Entonces Pedro, lleno del Espíritu Santo, les respondió: Gobernantes del pueblo y ancianos:
9 if we are examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed,
Se nos interroga con respecto al beneficio hecho a un hombre enfermo: ¿cómo fue sanado?
10 may it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Yeshua the Messiah of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, this man stands here before you whole in him.
Sepan todos ustedes y todo el pueblo de Israel, que por el Nombre de Jesucristo de Nazaret, a Quien ustedes crucificaron, a Quien Dios resucitó, este [hombre ]está sano delante de ustedes.
11 He is ‘the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.’
Éste [Jesús] es La Piedra desechada por ustedes los constructores, La cual [se] convirtió en Cabeza de ángulo.
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!”
En ningún otro hay salvación, porque no hay otro nombre bajo el cielo dado a [los] hombres, en Quien tenemos que ser salvos.
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and Yochanan, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled. They recognised that they had been with Yeshua.
Cuando percibieron la osadía de Pedro y Juan, y pensaron que eran hombres iliteratos y no educados, se asombraban y reconocían que habían estado con Jesús.
14 Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
Al ver al hombre sanado en pie con ellos, nada podían replicar.
15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred amongst themselves,
Les ordenaron que salieran del Tribunal Supremo y discutían:
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.
¿Qué haremos a estos hombres? Porque ciertamente una notable señal milagrosa sucedió por medio de ellos, visible a todos los que habitan Jerusalén, y no se puede negar.
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.”
Sin embargo, para que no se divulgue más hacia el pueblo, amenacémoslos a fin de evitar que hablen más en este Nombre a alguno.
18 They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Yeshua.
Los llamaron y [les] ordenaron que en absoluto no proclamaran ni enseñaran en el Nombre de Jesús.
19 But Peter and Yochanan answered them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, judge for yourselves,
Pedro y Juan respondieron: Juzguen si es justo delante de Dios escucharlos a ustedes y no a Él,
20 for we can’t help telling the things which we saw and heard.”
porque nosotros no podemos callar lo que vimos y oímos.
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.
Entonces ellos, al no hallar cómo castigarlos por causa del pueblo, los amenazaron aún más y los soltaron. Todos glorificaban a Dios por lo sucedido,
22 For the man on whom this miracle of healing was performed was more than forty years old.
porque el hombre en quien ocurrió este milagro de la curación tenía más de 40 años.
23 Being let go, they came to their own company and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.
Cuando los soltaron, fueron a los suyos e informaron todo lo que les dijeron los principales sacerdotes y los ancianos.
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;
Después de escucharlos, alzaron [la] voz unánimes a Dios: Soberano, Tú que hiciste el cielo, la tierra, el mar y todo lo que hay en ellos,
25 who by the mouth of your servant David, said, ‘Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
que dijiste por [el] Espíritu Santo a tu esclavo, nuestro antepasado David: ¿Por qué se amotinan las gentes, Y los pueblos maquinan cosas vanas?
26 The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers plot together, against the Lord, and against his Messiah.’
Se levantaron los reyes de la tierra, Y sus gobernantes consultaron unidos Contra el Señor y contra su Ungido.
27 “For truly, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together against your holy servant Yeshua, whom you anointed,
Porque en verdad Herodes y Poncio Pilato se reunieron con gentiles y pueblos de Israel en esta ciudad contra tu santo Siervo Jesús, a Quien ungiste
28 to do whatever your hand and your counsel foreordained to happen.
para hacer cuanto tu mano y designio predestinaron para que sucediera.
29 Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,
Ahora Señor, mira sus amenazas y concede a tus esclavos que hablen tu Palabra con toda osadía.
30 while you stretch out your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of your holy Servant Yeshua.”
Extiende tu mano para que se realicen sanidades, señales milagrosas y prodigios por medio del Nombre de tu santo Siervo Jesús.
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.
Después de hablar ellos con Dios, tembló el lugar donde estaban reunidos, y todos fueron llenos del Espíritu Santo y hablaban con osadía la Palabra de Dios.
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.
La congregación de los que creyeron tenía un corazón y un alma. Ninguno decía que poseía algo, sino todas las cosas les eran de propiedad común.
33 With great power, the emissaries gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Yeshua. Great grace was on them all.
Los apóstoles daban el testimonio de la resurrección del Señor Jesús con gran poder, y había abundante gracia sobre todos ellos.
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,
Porque no había algún empobrecido entre ellos, pues quienes tenían tierras o casas las vendían y colocaban el valor de lo vendido
35 and laid them at the emissaries’ feet; and distribution was made to each, according as anyone had need.
a los pies de los apóstoles. Era distribuido a cada uno según su necesidad.
36 Yosi, who by the emissaries was also called Barnabas (which is, being interpreted, Son of Encouragement), a Levite, a man of Cyprus by race,
José, un levita chipriota llamado por los apóstoles Bernabé, que significa hijo de consolación,
37 having a field, sold it and brought the money and laid it at the emissaries’ feet.
quien tenía un campo, lo vendió y llevó el dinero a los apóstoles.
