Travay 4

1 Antan Pyè ak Jan t'ap pale ak pèp la, prèt yo, kòmandan lagad tanp lan ak sadiseyen yo vin rive.

And as they spake vnto the people, the Priestes and the Captaine of the Temple, and the Sadduces came vpon them,

2 Yo te fache anpil dèske apòt yo t'ap moutre pèp la anpil bagay, dèske yo t'ap anonse yo moun mouri kapab leve menm jan Jezi te leve soti vivan nan lanmò.

Taking it grieuously that they taught the people, and preached in Iesus Name the resurrection from the dead.

3 Yo arete yo, yo mete yo nan prizon pou jouk nan denmen paske solèy te fin kouche.

And they layde handes on them, and put them in holde, vntill the next day: for it was now euentide.

4 Men, anpil moun ki te tande pawòl la te kwè. Lè sa a, te gen senkmil (5.000) moun konsa ki te kwè.

Howbeit, many of them which heard the word, beleeued, and the number of the men was about fiue thousand.

5 Nan denmen, chèf jwif yo, chèf fanmi yo ak dirèktè lalwa yo sanble nan Jerizalèm.

And it came to passe on the morow, that their rulers, and Elders, and Scribes, were gathered together at Hierusalem,

6 Ladan yo te gen: An, granprèt la, Kayif, Jan, Aleksann ansanm ak fanmi granprèt la.

And Annas the chiefe Priest, and Caiaphas, and Iohn, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the hie Priestes.

7 Yo fè mennen apòt yo devan yo, epi yo mande yo: Kote n' pran pouvwa pou fè bagay sa a? Ki moun ki ban nou dwa fè sa?

And whe they had set them before them, they asked, By what power, or in what Name haue ye done this?

8 Lè sa a, Pyè vin anba pouvwa Sentespri, li di yo: Mesye chèf pèp la ak chèf fanmi yo:

Then Peter ful of the holy Ghost, said vnto them, Ye rulers of the people, and Elders of Israel,

9 Jòdi a y'ap poze nou keksyon sou yon byen nou fè pou yon enfim, y'ap mande nou ki jan nonm sa a fè geri.

For as much as we this day are examined of the good deede done to the impotent man, to wit, by what meanes he is made whole,

10 Nou tout ki la a ansanm ak tout pèp Izrayèl la, nou fèt pou nou konn sa: si nonm sa a kanpe devan nou tou gaya, se gremesi Jezikri, moun Nazarèt nou te kloure sou kwa a, men ki leve vivan soti nan lanmò ak pouvwa Bondye.

Be it knowen vnto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye haue crucified, whome God raised againe from the dead, euen by him doth this man stand here before you, whole.

11 Se Jezi menm yo t'ap pale nan pawòl sa a ki ekri nan liv la: Wòch nou te voye jete lè nou t'ap bati a, se li menm ki tounen wòch ki kenbe kay la.

This is the stone cast aside of you builders which is become the head of the corner.

12 Se li menm sèl ki ka bay delivrans paske Bondye pa bay non okenn lòt moun sou latè ki kapab delivre nou.

Neither is there saluation in any other: for among men there is giuen none other Name vnder heauen, whereby we must be saued.

13 Manm Gran Konsèy yo te sezi anpil lè yo wè ki jan Pyè ak Jan te gen konviksyon nan sa yo t'ap di, paske yo te vin konnen mesye sa yo se moun ki soti nan mas pèp la, ki pa t' resevwa okenn enstriksyon. Chèf yo te rekonèt yo tou pou moun ki te toujou avèk Jezi.

Now when they sawe the boldnes of Peter and Iohn, and vnderstoode that they were vnlearned men and without knowledge, they marueiled, and knew them, that they had bin with Iesus:

14 Men, yo pa t' jwenn anyen pou reponn yo paske nonm ki te geri a te kanpe la devan je yo bò kot Pyè ak Jan.

And beholding also the man which was healed standing with them, they had nothing to say against it.

15 Yo mande apòt yo pou yo soti nan pyès kote Gran Konsèy la te reyini an, epi yo pran diskite bagay la yonn ak lòt.

Then they commanded them to goe aside out of the Council, and conferred among themselues,

16 Yo t'ap di konsa: Kisa pou n' fè ak mesye sa yo? Paske, tout moun nan Jerizalèm konnen byen pwòp se yo ki te fè gwo mirak sa a. Nou pa ka di se pa vre.

Saying, What shall we doe to these men? for surely a manifest signe is done by them, and it is openly knowen to all them that dwell in Hierusalem: and we cannot denie it.

17 Men, pou nouvèl la pa gaye plis nan pèp la, n'ap kraponnen yo, n'ap defann yo pale ak pesonn nan non Jezi.

But that it be noysed no farther among the people, let vs threaten and charge them, that they speake hencefoorth to no man in this Name.

18 Apre sa, yo fè rele apòt yo, yo pase yo lòd pou yo pa janm pale ni moutre pèp la anyen nan non Jezi.

So they called them, and commanded them, that in no wise they should speake or teach in the Name of Iesus.

19 Men, Pyè ak Jan reponn yo: Jije nou menm kisa ki pi bon devan Bondye: Obeyi nou osinon obeyi Bondye?

But Peter and Iohn answered vnto them, and said, Whether it be right in the sight of God, to obey you rather then God, iudge ye.

20 Pou nou menm, nou pa kapab pa pale sa nou wè ak sa nou tande.

For we cannot but speake the things which we haue seene and heard.

21 Manm Gran Konsèy yo fè yo menas ankò. Apre sa, yo lage yo. Yo pa t' kapab fè yo anyen paske tout pèp la t'ap fè lwanj Bondye pou sa ki te rive a.

So they threatened them, and let them goe, and found nothing how to punish them, because of the people: for all men praised God for that which was done.

22 Nonm ki te geri gremesi mirak apòt yo te fè a te gen karantan pase.

For the man was aboue fourtie yeeres olde, on whome this miracle of healing was shewed.

23 Lage yo lage yo, Pyè ak Jan al jwenn gwoup zanmi yo, yo rakonte yo tou sa chèf prèt yo ak ansyen yo te di.

Then assoone as they were let goe, they came to their fellowes, and shewed all that the hie Priestes and Elders had said vnto them.

24 Lè disip yo tande sa, yo tout mete tèt ansanm pou lapriyè Bondye konsa: O Mèt, se ou menm ki fè syèl la, tè a, lanmè a ak tout sa ki ladan yo.

And when they heard it, they lift vp their voyces to God with one accord, and said, O Lord, thou art the God which hast made the heaue, and the earth, the sea, and all things that are in them,

25 Pa pouvwa Sentespri, se ou menm ki te pale nan bouch sèvitè ou, David, zansèt nou, lè l' te di: Poukisa moun lòt nasyon yo t'ap toumante kò yo konsa? Poukisa pèp yo t'ap fè plan ki p'ap sèvi yo anyen konsa?

Which by the mouth of thy seruant Dauid hast saide, Why did the Gentiles rage, and the people imagine vaine things?

26 Wa latè yo pran pozisyon, chèf yo mete tèt yo ansanm sou do Bondye ak sou do Moun li chwazi a!

The Kings of the earth assembled, and the rulers came together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

27 Se sa menm ki rive nan lavil sa a lè Ewòd ak Pons Pilat mete tèt yo ansanm ak moun lòt nasyon yo ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl la sou do Jezi, sèvitè ki t'ap viv pou ou a, moun ou te chwazi a.

For doutlesse, against thine holy Sonne Iesus, whome thou haddest anoynted, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel gathered themselues together,

28 Yo fè tou sa ou menm, nan tout pouvwa ou ak pwòp volonte ou, ou te deside davans ki pou te fèt la.

To doe whatsoeuer thine hand, and thy counsell had determined before to be done.

29 Koulye a, Bondye, gade ki jan y'ap fè nou menas. Bay sèvitè ou yo fòs pou yo ka fè konnen mesaj ou a avèk konviksyon.

And nowe, O Lord, beholde their threatnings, and graunt vnto thy seruants with all boldnesse to speake thy word,

30 Lonje men ou pou yo ka fè gerizon, mirak ak lòt bèl bagay nan non Jezi, sèvitè ki te viv pou ou a.

So that thou stretch forth thine hand, that healing, and signes, and wonders may be done by the Name of thine holy Sonne Iesus.

31 Lè yo fin lapriyè, kote yo te ye a pran tranble. Yo tout te anba pouvwa Sentespri, epi yo pran anonse pawòl Bondye a avèk konviksyon.

And when as they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together, and they were all filled with the holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God boldely.

32 Tout moun ki te kwè yo te fè yon sèl kò, yo te gen menm santiman yonn pou lòt, yo te gen yon sèl lide yonn anvè lòt. Pesonn pa t' di byen li yo te pou tèt pa l' ase, men tou sa yonn te genyen te pou tout moun.

And the multitude of them that beleeued, were of one heart, and of one soule: neither any of them said, that any thing of that which he possessed, was his owne, but they had all thinges common.

33 Se avèk anpil pouvwa apòt yo t'ap bay prèv ki jan Bondye te leve Jezi fè l' soti vivan nan lanmò. Bondye menm te vide benediksyon l' an kantite sou yo tout.

And with great power gaue the Apostles witnes of the resurrection of the Lord Iesus: and great grace was vpon them all.

34 Pesonn nan mitan yo pa t' nan nesesite. Sa ki te gen jaden, sa ki te gen kay, yo vann sa, yo pote lajan an

Neither was there any among them, that lacked: for as many as were possessours of landes or houses, solde them, and brought the price of the things that were solde,

35 renmèt apòt yo. Apre sa, yo te separe lajan an bay chak moun dapre nesesite yo.

And layde it downe at the Apostles feete, and it was distributed vnto euery man, according as he had neede.

36 Se konsa, te gen yon nonm yo rele Jozèf, yon moun Levi ki soti lil Chip. Apòt yo te ba l' yon ti non Banabas, ki te vle di: Nonm k'ap ankouraje a.

Also Ioses which was called of the Apostles, Barnabas (that is by interpretation the sonne of consolation) being a Leuite, and of the countrey of Cyprus,

37 Enben, li vann yon jaden li te genyen, li pote lajan an renmèt apòt yo.

Where as he had land, solde it, and brought the money, and laid it downe at the Apostles feete.
