Πραξεις 5
1 Ἀνὴρ δέ τις Ἁνανίας ὀνόματι σὺν Σαπφίρῃ τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ ἐπώλησεν κτῆμα
But a certain man, Ananias by name, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
2 καὶ ἐνοσφίσατο ἀπὸ τῆς τιμῆς, συνειδυίης καὶ τῆς γυναικός (αὐτοῦ, *k*) καὶ ἐνέγκας μέρος τι παρὰ τοὺς πόδας τῶν ἀποστόλων ἔθηκεν.
and put aside for himself part of the price, [his] wife also being privy to it; and having brought a certain part, laid it at the feet of the apostles.
3 Εἶπεν δὲ (ὁ *no*) Πέτρος· Ἁνανία, διὰ τί ἐπλήρωσεν ὁ σατανᾶς τὴν καρδίαν σου ψεύσασθαί σε τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον καὶ νοσφίσασθαι (σε *o*) ἀπὸ τῆς τιμῆς τοῦ χωρίου;
But Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled thy heart that thou shouldest lie to the Holy Spirit, and put aside for thyself a part of the price of the estate?
4 οὐχὶ μένον σοὶ ἔμενεν καὶ πραθὲν ἐν τῇ σῇ ἐξουσίᾳ ὑπῆρχεν; τί ὅτι ἔθου ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου τὸ πρᾶγμα τοῦτο; οὐκ ἐψεύσω ἀνθρώποις ἀλλὰ τῷ θεῷ.
While it remained did it not remain to thee? and sold, was [it not] in thine own power? Why is it that thou hast purposed this thing in thine heart? Thou hast not lied to men, but to God.
5 ἀκούων δὲ ὁ Ἁνανίας τοὺς λόγους τούτους πεσὼν ἐξέψυξεν. καὶ ἐγένετο φόβος μέγας ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς ἀκούοντας (ταῦτα· *k*)
And Ananias, hearing these words, fell down and expired. And great fear came upon all who heard [it].
6 ἀναστάντες δὲ οἱ νεώτεροι συνέστειλαν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐξενέγκαντες ἔθαψαν.
And the young men, rising up, swathed him up for burial, and having carried him out, buried him.
7 ἐγένετο δὲ ὡς ὡρῶν τριῶν διάστημα καὶ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ μὴ εἰδυῖα τὸ γεγονὸς εἰσῆλθεν.
And it came to pass about three hours afterwards, that his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
8 ἀπεκρίθη δὲ (πρὸς *no*) (αὐτὴν *N(k)O*) (ὁ *k*) Πέτρος· εἰπέ μοι, εἰ τοσούτου τὸ χωρίον ἀπέδοσθε; ἡ δὲ εἶπεν· ναὶ τοσούτου.
And Peter answered her, Tell me if ye gave the estate for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much.
9 ὁ δὲ Πέτρος (εἶπεν *k*) πρὸς αὐτήν· τί ὅτι συνεφωνήθη ὑμῖν πειράσαι τὸ πνεῦμα κυρίου; ἰδοὺ οἱ πόδες τῶν θαψάντων τὸν ἄνδρα σου ἐπὶ τῇ θύρᾳ καὶ ἐξοίσουσίν σε.
And Peter said to her, Why [is it] that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of [the] Lord? Lo, the feet of those that have buried thy husband [are] at the door, and they shall carry thee out.
10 ἔπεσεν δὲ παραχρῆμα (πρὸς *N(k)O*) τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξέψυξεν· εἰσελθόντες δὲ οἱ νεανίσκοι εὗρον αὐτὴν νεκράν, καὶ ἐξενέγκαντες ἔθαψαν πρὸς τὸν ἄνδρα αὐτῆς·
And she fell down immediately at his feet and expired. And when the young men came in they found her dead; and, having carried her out, they buried her by her husband.
11 καὶ ἐγένετο φόβος μέγας ἐφ᾽ ὅλην τὴν ἐκκλησίαν καὶ ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς ἀκούοντας ταῦτα.
And great fear came upon all the assembly, and upon all who heard these things.
12 Διὰ δὲ τῶν χειρῶν τῶν ἀποστόλων (ἐγίνετο *N(k)O*) σημεῖα καὶ τέρατα πολλὰ ἐν τῷ λαῷ· καὶ ἦσαν ὁμοθυμαδὸν (ἅπαντες *NK(o)*) ἐν τῇ στοᾷ Σολομῶντος·
And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders done among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch,
13 τῶν δὲ λοιπῶν οὐδεὶς ἐτόλμα κολλᾶσθαι αὐτοῖς, ἀλλ᾽ ἐμεγάλυνεν αὐτοὺς ὁ λαός.
but of the rest durst no man join them, but the people magnified them;
14 μᾶλλον δὲ προσετίθεντο πιστεύοντες τῷ κυρίῳ, πλήθη ἀνδρῶν τε καὶ γυναικῶν,
and believers were more than ever added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women; )
15 ὥστε (καὶ *no*) (εἰς *N(k)O*) τὰς πλατείας ἐκφέρειν τοὺς ἀσθενεῖς καὶ τιθέναι ἐπὶ (κλιναρίων *N(k)O*) καὶ κραβάττων, ἵνα ἐρχομένου Πέτρου κἂν κἂν ἡ σκιὰ (ἐπισκιάσῃ *NK(o)*) τινὶ αὐτῶν.
so that they brought out the sick into the streets and put [them] on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter, when he came, might overshadow some one of them.
16 συνήρχετο δὲ καὶ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν πέριξ πόλεων (εἰς *k*) Ἰερουσαλὴμ φέροντες ἀσθενεῖς καὶ ὀχλουμένους ὑπὸ πνευμάτων ἀκαθάρτων, οἵτινες ἐθεραπεύοντο ἅπαντες.
And the multitude also of the cities round about came together to Jerusalem, bringing sick persons and persons beset by unclean spirits, who were all healed.
17 Ἀναστὰς δὲ ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς καὶ πάντες οἱ σὺν αὐτῷ, ἡ οὖσα αἵρεσις τῶν Σαδδουκαίων, ἐπλήσθησαν ζήλου
And the high priest rising up, and all they that were with him, which is the sect of the Sadducees, were filled with wrath,
18 καὶ ἐπέβαλον τὰς χεῖρας (αὐτῶν *k*) ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀποστόλους καὶ ἔθεντο αὐτοὺς ἐν τηρήσει δημοσίᾳ.
and laid hands on the apostles and put them in the public prison.
19 Ἄγγελος δὲ κυρίου διὰ (τῆς *k*) νυκτὸς (ἀνοίξας *N(k)O*) τὰς θύρας τῆς φυλακῆς, ἐξαγαγών τε αὐτοὺς εἶπεν·
But an angel of [the] Lord during the night opened the doors of the prison, and leading them out, said,
20 πορεύεσθε καὶ σταθέντες λαλεῖτε ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ τῷ λαῷ πάντα τὰ ῥήματα τῆς ζωῆς ταύτης.
Go ye and stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
21 ἀκούσαντες δὲ εἰσῆλθον ὑπὸ τὸν ὄρθρον εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν καὶ ἐδίδασκον. Παραγενόμενος δὲ ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς καὶ οἱ σὺν αὐτῷ συνεκάλεσαν τὸ συνέδριον καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γερουσίαν τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἀπέστειλαν εἰς τὸ δεσμωτήριον ἀχθῆναι αὐτούς.
And when they heard it, they entered very early into the temple and taught. And when the high priest was come, and they that were with him, they called together the council and all the elderhood of the sons of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
22 οἱ δὲ παραγενόμενοι ὑπηρέται οὐχ εὗρον αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ. ἀναστρέψαντες δὲ ἀπήγγειλαν
And when the officers were come, they did not find them in the prison; and returned and reported
23 λέγοντες ὅτι τὸ (μὲν *k*) δεσμωτήριον εὕρομεν κεκλεισμένον ἐν πάσῃ ἀσφαλείᾳ καὶ τοὺς φύλακας (ἔξω *K*) ἑστῶτας (ἐπὶ *N(k)O*) τῶν θυρῶν, ἀνοίξαντες δὲ ἔσω οὐδένα εὕρομεν.
saying, We found the prison shut with all security, and the keepers standing at the doors; but when we had opened [them], within we found no one.
24 ὡς δὲ ἤκουσαν τοὺς λόγους τούτους ὅ τε (ἱερεὺς καὶ ὁ *K*) στρατηγὸς τοῦ ἱεροῦ καὶ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς, διηπόρουν περὶ αὐτῶν, τί ἂν γένοιτο τοῦτο.
And when they heard these words, both the priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests were in perplexity as to them, what this would come to.
25 παραγενόμενος δέ τις ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτοῖς (λέγων *k*) ὅτι ἰδοὺ οἱ ἄνδρες οὓς ἔθεσθε ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ, εἰσὶν ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ ἑστῶτες καὶ διδάσκοντες τὸν λαόν.
And some one coming reported to them, Lo, the men whom ye put in the prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people.
26 Τότε ἀπελθὼν ὁ στρατηγὸς σὺν τοῖς ὑπηρέταις (ἦγεν *N(k)O*) αὐτοὺς οὐ μετὰ βίας, ἐφοβοῦντο γὰρ τὸν λαὸν (ἵνα *k*) μὴ λιθασθῶσιν.
Then the captain, having gone with the officers, brought them, not with violence, for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.
27 Ἀγαγόντες δὲ αὐτοὺς ἔστησαν ἐν τῷ συνεδρίῳ. καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτοὺς ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς
And they bring them and set them in the council. And the high priest asked them,
28 λέγων· (οὐ *NK*) παραγγελίᾳ παρηγγείλαμεν ὑμῖν μὴ διδάσκειν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι τούτῳ. καὶ ἰδοὺ πεπληρώκατε τὴν Ἰερουσαλὴμ τῆς διδαχῆς ὑμῶν καὶ βούλεσθε ἐπαγαγεῖν ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς τὸ αἷμα τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τούτου.
saying, We strictly enjoined you not to teach in this name: and lo, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and purpose to bring upon us the blood of this man.
29 Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ (ὁ *k*) Πέτρος καὶ οἱ ἀπόστολοι εἶπαν· πειθαρχεῖν δεῖ θεῷ μᾶλλον ἢ ἀνθρώποις.
But Peter answering, and the apostles, said, God must be obeyed rather than men.
30 ὁ θεὸς τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν ἤγειρεν Ἰησοῦν ὃν ὑμεῖς διεχειρίσασθε κρεμάσαντες ἐπὶ ξύλου·
The God of our fathers has raised up Jesus, whom ye have slain, having hanged on a cross.
31 τοῦτον ὁ θεὸς ἀρχηγὸν καὶ σωτῆρα ὕψωσεν τῇ δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ (τοῦ *no*) δοῦναι μετάνοιαν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἄφεσιν ἁμαρτιῶν.
Him has God exalted by his right hand as leader and saviour, to give repentance to Israel and remission of sins.
32 καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐσμεν (αὐτοῦ *k*) μάρτυρες τῶν ῥημάτων τούτων καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα (δὲ *k*) τὸ ἅγιον ὃ ἔδωκεν ὁ θεὸς τοῖς πειθαρχοῦσιν αὐτῷ.
And we are [his] witnesses of these things, and the Holy Spirit also, which God has given to those that obey him.
33 οἱ δὲ (ἀκούσαντες *NK(o)*) διεπρίοντο καὶ (ἐβούλοντο *N(k)O*) ἀνελεῖν αὐτούς.
But they, when they heard [these things], were cut to the heart, and took counsel to kill them.
34 Ἀναστὰς δέ τις ἐν τῷ συνεδρίῳ Φαρισαῖος ὀνόματι Γαμαλιήλ, νομοδιδάσκαλος τίμιος παντὶ τῷ λαῷ, ἐκέλευσεν ἔξω βραχὺ (τί *k*) τοὺς (ἀνθρώπους *N(K)O*) ποιῆσαι,
But a certain [man], a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, held in honour of all the people, rose up in the council, and commanded to put the men out for a short while,
35 εἶπέν τε πρὸς αὐτούς· ἄνδρες Ἰσραηλῖται, προσέχετε ἑαυτοῖς ἐπὶ τοῖς ἀνθρώποις τούτοις τί μέλλετε πράσσειν.
and said to them, Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves as regards these men what ye are going to do;
36 πρὸ γὰρ τούτων τῶν ἡμερῶν ἀνέστη Θευδᾶς λέγων εἶναί τινα ἑαυτόν, ᾧ (προσεκλίθη *N(k)(o)*) ἀνδρῶν ἀριθμὸς (ὡς *N(k)O*) τετρακοσίων· ὃς ἀνῃρέθη, καὶ πάντες ὅσοι ἐπείθοντο αὐτῷ διελύθησαν καὶ ἐγένοντο εἰς οὐδέν.
for before these days Theudas rose up, alleging himself to be somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, were joined; who was slain, and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed and came to nothing.
37 μετὰ τοῦτον ἀνέστη Ἰούδας ὁ Γαλιλαῖος ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τῆς ἀπογραφῆς καὶ ἀπέστησεν λαὸν (ἱκανὸν *K*) ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ· κἀκεῖνος κἀκεῖνος ἀπώλετο, καὶ πάντες ὅσοι ἐπείθοντο αὐτῷ διεσκορπίσθησαν.
After him rose Judas the Galilean in the days of the census, and drew away [a number of] people after him; and he perished, and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered abroad.
38 καὶ τὰ νῦν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀπόστητε ἀπὸ τῶν ἀνθρώπων τούτων καὶ (ἄφετε *N(k)O*) αὐτούς, ὅτι ἐὰν ᾖ ἐξ ἀνθρώπων ἡ βουλὴ αὕτη ἢ τὸ ἔργον τοῦτο, καταλυθήσεται·
And now I say to you, Withdraw from these men and let them alone, for if this counsel or this work have its origin from men, it will be destroyed;
39 εἰ δὲ ἐκ θεοῦ ἐστιν, οὐ (δυνήσεσθε *N(k)O*) καταλῦσαι (αὐτούς, *N(K)O*) μήποτε μήποτε καὶ θεομάχοι εὑρεθῆτε.
but if it be from God, ye will not be able to put them down, lest ye be found also fighters against God.
40 ἐπείσθησαν δὲ αὐτῷ, καὶ προσκαλεσάμενοι τοὺς ἀποστόλους δείραντες παρήγγειλαν μὴ λαλεῖν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι τοῦ Ἰησοῦ καὶ ἀπέλυσαν (αὐτούς. *k*)
And they listened to his advice; and having called the apostles, they beat them, and enjoined them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and dismissed them.
41 Οἱ μὲν οὖν ἐπορεύοντο χαίροντες ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ συνεδρίου, ὅτι κατηξιώθησαν ὑπὲρ τοῦ ὀνόματος (τοῦ *o*) (αὐτοῦ *K(O)*) ἀτιμασθῆναι·
They therefore went their way from [the] presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to be dishonoured for the name.
42 πᾶσάν τε ἡμέραν ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ καὶ κατ᾽ οἶκον οὐκ ἐπαύοντο διδάσκοντες καὶ εὐαγγελιζόμενοι τὸν χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν.
And every day, in the temple and in the houses, they ceased not teaching and announcing the glad tidings that Jesus [was] the Christ.
