Travay 5
1 Konsa tou, yon nonm yo te rele Ananyas ak Safira madanm li vann yon tè yo te genyen.
Now a man named Ananias, along with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property
2 Men, dakò ak madanm li, Ananyas kenbe enpe nan lajan an pou li, epi li al renmèt apòt yo rès la.
and kept back some of the proceeds, with his wife also being aware of it. He brought a portion of the proceeds and laid it at the apostles' feet.
3 Lè sa a, Pyè di li: Ananyas, ki jan ou fè kite Satan antre nan kè ou pou l' fè ou bay Sentespri manti, pou l' fè ou kenbe enpe nan lajan tè a pou ou?
But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled yoʋr heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back some of the proceeds of the plot of land?
4 Anvan ou te vann tè a, se pa pou ou li te ye? Apre ou te fin vann li, tout lajan an te pou ou, pa vre? Ki jan ou fè mete nan tèt ou pou fè yon bagay konsa? Se pa moun ou bay manti non. Se Bondye ou twonpe.
While it remained unsold, did it not remain yoʋrs? And once it was sold, was it not under yoʋr control? How is it that yoʋ have put this thing in yoʋr heart? Yoʋ have not lied to men but to God.”
5 Lè Ananyas tande pawòl sa yo, li tonbe, li mouri frèt. Tout moun ki tande nouvèl la te pè anpil.
When Ananias heard these words, he fell down and breathed his last breath. And great fear came upon all who heard about it.
6 Men, kèk jenn gason vini, yo vlope kò a; yo pran l', y' al antere li.
Then the young men rose, wrapped up his body, carried him out, and buried him.
7 Twazèdetan apre, madanm Ananyas, ki pa t' konn sak te rive, vin antre.
About three hours later, his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.
8 Pyè mande li: Di mwen, èske se pou pri sa a nou te vann jaden an? Li reponn: Wi, se pou pri sa a.
Peter said to her, “Tell me if you sold the plot of land for such and such a price.” She said, “Yes, for such a price.”
9 Lè sa a, Pyè di li: Poukisa, ou menm ak mari ou, nou fè konbinezon sa a ansanm pou n' chache pran Lespri Bondye a nan pèlen? Koute: Moun ki antere mari ou la, men yo la nan papòt la. Yo pral pote ou ale, ou menm tou.
Peter said to her, “Why is it that you have agreed to put the Spirit of the Lord to the test? Behold, the feet of those who buried yoʋr husband are at the door, and they will carry yoʋ out.”
10 Menm lè a, li tonbe atè nan pye Pyè, li mouri frèt. Jenn gason yo antre, yo jwenn li mouri. Yo pran l', y' al antere bò kot mari li.
At once she fell down at his feet and breathed her last breath. When the young men came in, they found her dead, so they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
11 Tout legliz la ak tout moun ki te tande bagay sa yo te pè anpil.
And great fear came upon the whole church and upon all who heard these things.
12 Apòt yo t'ap fè anpil mirak ak anpil bèl bagay nan mitan pèp la. Yo tout te reyini ansanm anba Galeri Salomon an.
Now many signs and wonders were taking place among the people by the hands of the apostles, and all the believers were together with one accord in Solomon's portico.
13 Tout moun te pè mele ak yo, apa moun ki te kwè yo. Men, pèp la t'ap pale byen sou yo.
No one else dared to join them, but the people held them in high regard.
14 Anpil moun, fanm kou gason, t'ap vin jwenn disip yo paske yo te kwè nan Seyè a.
Yet more and more people believed in the Lord and were added to their number, a multitude of both men and women.
15 Lè sa a, yo tanmen pote moun malad yo deyò nan lari. Yo mete yo sou kabann, sou nat, yon jan pou lè Pyè vin ap pase menm lonbray li te ka kouvri kèk nan yo.
As a result, people carried the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and mats, so that when Peter came by at least his shadow might fall on one of them.
16 Moun te soti nan tout ti bouk ki nan vwazinaj Jerizalèm. Yo pote moun malad ak moun move lespri t'ap toumante. Yo tout te geri.
A multitude from the towns all around Jerusalem also gathered together, bringing the sick and those harassed by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.
17 Lè sa a, yon sèl jalouzi pran granprèt la ansanm ak sadiseyen yo ki te patizan li.
Then the high priest rose up, along with all who were with him (that is, the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with jealousy.
18 Yo fè arete apòt yo, mete yo nan gran prizon.
So they arrested the apostles and put them in a public jail.
19 Men, nan mitan lannwit, yon zanj Bondye louvri pòt prizon an, li fè apòt yo soti. Li di yo:
But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the prison, brought them out, and said,
20 Ale kanpe nan mitan tanp lan, epi anonse pèp la tout bagay sou jan pou yo viv koulye a.
“Go stand in the temple courts and tell the people everything about this new life.”
21 Apòt yo obeyi zanj lan: Nan granmaten, y' al nan tanp lan epi yo tanmen moutre pèp la anpil bagay. Granprèt la ansanm ak patizan l' yo sanble tout chèf fanmi nan pèp Izrayèl la, yo reyini Gran Konsèy la. Apre sa, yo voye chache apòt yo nan prizon an.
When they heard this, they entered the temple courts at dawn and began teaching. When the high priest came, along with those who were with him, they called together the Sanhedrin—that is, the entire eldership of the people of Israel—and sent officers to the prison to have the apostles brought before them.
22 Men, lè gad yo rive nan prizon an, yo pa jwenn yo. Yo tounen nan Gran Konsèy la, yo fè rapò yo. Yo di:
But when the officers arrived, they did not find them in the prison. So they returned and reported,
23 Nou jwenn prizon an byen fèmen, avèk gad yo nan pòs devan pòt prizon an. Men, lè nou louvri pòt yo, nou pa jwenn pesonn anndan an.
“We found the prison locked up in complete security and the guards standing in front of the doors, but when we opened the doors, we found no one inside.”
24 Lè kòmandan lagad tanp lan ak chèf prèt yo tande sa, yo t'ap mande ki jan apòt yo fè disparèt, kisa ki te rive.
When the high priest, the captain of the temple guard, and the chief priests heard this report, they were greatly perplexed by it, wondering what might come of this.
25 Men, yon moun vin rive, li di yo: Mesye nou te mete nan prizon yo, men yo nan tanp lan, y'ap pale ak pèp la.
Then someone came and told them, “Behold, the men you put in prison are standing in the temple courts teaching the people!”
26 Lè sa a, kòmandan lagad la ale avèk gad li yo, li mennen apòt yo tounen. Men, yo pa t' aji brital ak yo paske yo te pè pou pèp la pa t' touye yo ak kout wòch.
So the captain went with the officers and brought the apostles without the use of force, for they were afraid the people might stone them.
27 Lè yo mennen yo tounen, yo fè yo konparèt devan Gran Konsèy la. Epi granprèt la pran poze yo keksyon.
After bringing the apostles in, they had them stand before the Sanhedrin, and the high priest asked them,
28 Li di yo: Eske nou pa t' defann nou pale ak pèp la nan non nonm sa a? Gade sa n' fè. Nou gaye pawòl nou yo nan tout Jerizalèm. Nou vle rann nou reskonsab lanmò nonm lan.
“Did we not strictly command you not to teach in this name? Yet behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and you are determined to bring the blood of this man upon us.”
29 Pyè ansanm ak lòt apòt yo reponn li: Se pou n' obeyi Bondye pase pou n' obeyi moun.
But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.
30 Bondye zansèt nou yo te fè Jezi leve soti vivan nan lanmò, Jezi nou te fè touye lè n' te kloure l' sou kwa a.
The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you murdered by hanging him on a cross.
31 Bondye fè l' moute chita sou bò dwat li, li mete l' Chèf sou nou, li fè l' delivre nou. Li fè sa pou bay pèp Izrayèl la yon bèl chans pou l' tounen vin jwenn Bondye, pou l' resevwa padon pou peche l' yo.
God exalted him to his right hand as Leader and Savior to grant repentance to Israel and remission of sins.
32 Nou se temwen tout bagay sa yo, nou menm ansanm ak Sentespri Bondye bay tout moun ki obeyi l' yo.
Concerning these things we are his witnesses, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.”
33 Lè yo tande pawòl sa yo, manm Gran Konsèy yo fin pran chenn. Tèlman yo te ankòlè, yo te vle fè touye apòt yo.
When they heard this, they were furious and resolved to put them to death,
34 Men, te gen yon farizyen nan mitan yo ki te rele Gamalyèl. Se te yon dirèktè lalwa tout pèp la te respekte anpil. Li kanpe nan mitan Konsèy la, li mande pou fè apòt yo soti yon ti moman.
but a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law who was held in honor by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and gave orders to put the apostles outside for a little while.
35 Apre sa, li di: Nou menm moun pèp Izrayèl, pran tèt nou anvan nou fè sa nou pral fè ak mesye yo.
Then he said to the Sanhedrin, “Men of Israel, give careful consideration to what you are about to do to these men.
36 Sa pa gen lontan, yon nonm yo rele Tedas te parèt. Li te pran pòz grannèg li. Li jwenn katsan (400) moun konsa ki te mete tèt ansanm avè li. Yo touye l', epi tout moun ki t'ap swiv li yo gaye. Se konsa mouvman an tonbe.
For before these days Theudas rose up, declaring himself to be somebody, and a number of men, about four hundred, responded to the call to join him. He was put to death, and all his followers were scattered and came to nothing.
37 Apre sa, lè resansman an, te gen Jida, yon nonm Galile, ki te parèt. Li te trennen yon bann moun dèyè li. Li menm tou, yo touye li. Epi tout moun ki t'ap swiv li yo gaye tou.
After this man, Judas the Galilean rose up in the days of the census and drew away many people after him. He also perished, and all his followers were scattered.
38 Pou koulye a, men sa m'ap di nou: Pa okipe mesye sa yo ankò. Kite y ale. Si plan travay yo a soti nan lèzòm, li gen pou l' disparèt.
So I say to you now, keep away from these men and leave them alone, for if this plan or this undertaking is of men, it will be stopped;
39 Men, si sa soti nan Bondye, nou p'ap kapab kraze li. Atansyon pou se pa avèk Bondye nou gen zafè! Manm Konsèy yo tonbe dakò avèk Gamalyèl.
but if it is of God, you cannot put a stop to it. You will only find yourselves fighting against God.”
40 Yo rele apòt yo ankò. Yo fè yo bat yo byen bat, yo pase yo lòd pou yo pa pale nan non Jezi ankò. Apre sa yo lage yo.
They were persuaded by him, and after calling in the apostles, they beat them, commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and released them.
41 Apòt yo kite Gran Konsèy la. Yo te kontan dèske Bondye te wè yo merite pou moun te avili yo konsa poutèt non Jezi.
So the apostles went out from the presence of the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that they had been considered worthy to suffer dishonor for the name of Jesus.
42 Toulejou, yo te nan tanp lan, yo t'ap mache kay an kay, yo pa t' janm sispann moutre moun yo anpil bagay. Yo t'ap anonse Bon Nouvèl ki pale sou Jezikri a.
And every day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they did not cease teaching and preaching the good news that Jesus is the Christ.
