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 are speaking to the people, there came to them the priests, and the magistrate of the temple, and the Sadducees—
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.
being grieved because of their teaching the people, and preaching in Jesus the resurrection out of the dead—
3 Yo arete yo, yo mete yo nan prizon pou jouk nan denmen paske solèy te fin kouche.
and they laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was evening already;
4 Men, anpil moun ki te tande pawòl la te kwè. Lè sa a, te gen senkmil (5.000) moun konsa ki te kwè.
and many of those hearing the word believed, and the number of the men became, as it were, five thousand.
5 Nan denmen, chèf jwif yo, chèf fanmi yo ak dirèktè lalwa yo sanble nan Jerizalèm.
And it came to pass the next day, there were gathered together of them the rulers, and elders, and scribes, to Jerusalem,
6 Ladan yo te gen: An, granprèt la, Kayif, Jan, Aleksann ansanm ak fanmi granprèt la.
and Annas the chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the family of the chief priest,
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 having set them in the midst, they were inquiring, “In what power, or in what name did you do this?”
8 Lè sa a, Pyè vin anba pouvwa Sentespri, li di yo: Mesye chèf pèp la ak chèf fanmi yo:
Then Peter, having been filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: “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.
if we are examined today concerning the good deed to the ailing man, by whom he has been saved,
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 known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised out of the dead, in Him has this one stood by 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 that was set at nothing by you—the builders, that became head of a corner;
12 Se li menm sèl ki ka bay delivrans paske Bondye pa bay non okenn lòt moun sou latè ki kapab delivre nou.
and there is not salvation in any other, for there is no other name under Heaven that has been given among men, in which it is required of us to be saved.”
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.
And beholding the openness of Peter and John, and having perceived that they are illiterate men and commoners, they were wondering—they were also taking knowledge of them that they had been with Jesus—
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 seeing the man standing with them who has been healed, 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.
and having commanded them to go away out of the Sanhedrin, they took counsel with one another,
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 will we do to these men? Because that, indeed, a notable sign has been done through them [is] apparent to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, and we are not able to deny [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 may spread no further toward the people, let us strictly threaten them to no longer speak in this Name to any man.”
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.
And having called them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor to teach, in the Name of Jesus,
19 Men, Pyè ak Jan reponn yo: Jije nou menm kisa ki pi bon devan Bondye: Obeyi nou osinon obeyi Bondye?
and Peter and John answering to them said, “Whether it is righteous before God to listen to you rather than to God, judge;
20 Pou nou menm, nou pa kapab pa pale sa nou wè ak sa nou tande.
for we cannot but speak what we saw 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.
And they having further threatened [them], let them go, finding no way how they may punish them, because of the people, because all were glorifying God for that which has been done,
22 Nonm ki te geri gremesi mirak apòt yo te fè a te gen karantan pase.
for above forty years of age was the man on whom had been done this sign of the healing.
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.
And being let go, they went to their own friends, and declared whatever the chief priests and the elders said to 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 they having heard, lifted up the voice to God with one accord and said, “LORD, You [are] God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all 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?
who, through the mouth of Your servant David, said, Why did nations rage, and peoples meditate vain 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 stood up, and the rulers were gathered 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 gathered together of a truth against Your holy child Jesus, whom You anointed, were both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with nations and peoples of Israel,
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 do whatever Your hand and Your counsel determined before to come to pass.
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 now, LORD, look on their threatenings, and grant to Your servants to speak Your word with all freedom,
30 Lonje men ou pou yo ka fè gerizon, mirak ak lòt bèl bagay nan non Jezi, sèvitè ki te viv pou ou a.
in the stretching forth of Your hand, for healing, and signs, and wonders, to come to pass through the Name of Your holy child Jesus.”
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 they having prayed, the place was shaken in which they were gathered together, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and were speaking the word of God with freedom,
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 of the multitude of those who believed, the heart and the soul were one, and not one was saying that anything of the things he had was his own, but all things were in common to them.
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 the apostles were giving the testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, great grace was also on 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
for there was not anyone among them who lacked, for as many as were possessors of fields, or houses, selling [them], were bringing the prices of the thing sold,
35 renmèt apòt yo. Apre sa, yo te separe lajan an bay chak moun dapre nesesite yo.
and were laying them at the feet of the apostles, and distribution was being made to each according as anyone had need.
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.
And Joses, who was surnamed by the apostles Barnabas—which is, having been interpreted, Son of Comfort—a Levite, of Cyprus by birth,
37 Enben, li vann yon jaden li te genyen, li pote lajan an renmèt apòt yo.
a field being his, having sold [it], brought the money and laid [it] at the feet of the apostles.
