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 while they were speaking to the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the sadducees came upon 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.
being vexed that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus 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 laid hands on them, and put them into custody till the next day: for it was now evening.
4 Men, anpil moun ki te tande pawòl la te kwè. Lè sa a, te gen senkmil (5.000) moun konsa ki te kwè.
But many of them who heard the word, believed: and the number of the men was about five thousand.
5 Nan denmen, chèf jwif yo, chèf fanmi yo ak dirèktè lalwa yo sanble nan Jerizalèm.
And on the morrow their rulers, and elders, and scribes were gathered together at Jerusalem:
6 Ladan yo te gen: An, granprèt la, Kayif, Jan, Aleksann ansanm ak fanmi granprèt la.
and with them Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high 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 when they had set them in the midst, they asked them, By what power, or in what name have 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 filled with the holy Spirit said unto them, Ye rulers of the people,
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.
and elders of Israel, if we are this day examined about the benefit done to the impotent man,
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.
by what means he is cured, be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, but whom God hath raised from the dead, even 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 that was set at nought by 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.
And there is salvation in no other; for there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we can 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.
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were plain and illiterate men, they were amazed; and they knew them again 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.
but seeing the man that was cured 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.
Therefore they ordered them to withdraw from the council,
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.
and conferred among themselves, saying, What shall we do with these men? for that indeed an evident miracle hath been wrought by them is manifest to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and we cannot 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 farther among the people, let us severely charge them to speak no more to any 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 not to speak at all, nor 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?
But Peter and John answered them, and said, Whether it be right in the sight of God to obey you rather than God, judge ye:
20 Pou nou menm, nou pa kapab pa pale sa nou wè ak sa nou tande.
for we cannot but speak the things which we have seen 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 more severely, and let them go; not finding how to punish them, because of the people: for they all glorified 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 above forty years old, on whom this miraculous cure was wrought.
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.
Being dismissed they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had 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 when they heard it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, Thou art God, who hast made heaven and earth, and sea, and all things therein:
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 by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine 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 set themselves, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against his anointed.
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 of a truth both Herod and Pontius Pilate, the Gentiles and the people of Israel, combined against thy holy child Jesus,
28 Yo fè tou sa ou menm, nan tout pouvwa ou ak pwòp volonte ou, ou te deside davans ki pou te fèt la.
(whom Thou hast anointed, ) to do whatever thy hand and thy counsel had before determined 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 now, Lord, behold their threatenings; and give unto thy servants to speak thy word with all freedom, while Thou art stretching forth thy hand to heal,
30 Lonje men ou pou yo ka fè gerizon, mirak ak lòt bèl bagay nan non Jezi, sèvitè ki te viv pou ou a.
and while signs and wonders are done by the name of thy 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 when they had prayed, the place in which they were assembled was shaken; and they were all filled with the holy Spirit, and they spake 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 the heart and soul of the multitude that believed was one: no one called any of his possessions his own property, but they had all things 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 did the apostles give their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon 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 indigent person among them; for as many as were proprietors of lands or houses, sold them and brought the prices of what were sold,
35 renmèt apòt yo. Apre sa, yo te separe lajan an bay chak moun dapre nesesite yo.
and laid them at the apostles feet; and distribution was made to every one according to their necessity.
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.
So Joses who was by the apostles sirnamed Barnabas, which is a son of consolation,
37 Enben, li vann yon jaden li te genyen, li pote lajan an renmèt apòt yo.
a Levite, by birth a Cyprian, having an estate, sold it and brought the money, and laid it at the feet of the apostles.
