Travay 4
1 Pandan yo t ap pale ak pèp la, prèt avèk kaptenn gad tanp lan avèk Sadiseyen yo te rive kote yo.
But, as they were speaking unto the people, the High-priests and the Captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,
2 Yo te byen deranje paske yo t ap enstwi pèp la e t ap pwoklame nan non Jésus rezirèksyon a lanmò yo.
Being tired out because of their teaching the people, and announcing, in Jesus, the resurrection from among the dead;
3 Yo te mete men sou yo, e te mete yo nan prizon pou jis rive nan demen, paske li te gen tan fènwa.
And they thrust on them their hands, and put them in custody for the morrow, for it was evening, already.
4 Men anpil nan sila yo ki te tande mesaj la te kwè, e fòs kantite moun ki te kwè yo te vini toupre senk-mil.
Howbeit, many of them that heard the word, believed; and the number of the men became about five thousand.
5 Nan landemen, chèf yo, avèk ansyen ak skrib yo te reyini ansanm nan Jérusalem.
And it came to pass, upon the morrow, that there were gathered together of them, the rulers and the elders and the scribes, in Jerusalem;
6 Anne, wo prèt la te la, avèk Caïphe, Jean, Alexandre, ak tout sila ki te desandan wo prèt yo.
Also Annas, the high-priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of high-priestly descent; —
7 Lè yo te kanpe yo nan mitan yo, yo te kòmanse mande yo: “Pa ki pouvwa, oswa nan ki non nou te fè sa a?”
And, setting them in the midst, they began to enquire—In what manner of power, or in what manner of name, did, ye, do this?
8 Alò, Pierre ranpli avèk Lespri Sen an, te di yo: “Chèf ak ansyen a pèp la,
Then Peter, filled with Holy Spirit, said unto them—Ye rulers of the people, and elders!
9 Si nou parèt devan tribinal jodi a pou benefis ki fèt a yon moun malad, kòmsi, kijan nonm sa a te fè geri,
If, we, this day, are to be examined for doing good to a sick man, —in whom, this, man hath been made well,
10 kite li byen konnen pami nou tout, ak tout Israël, ke pa non a Jésus Kri, Nazareyen ke nou te krisifye a, ke Bondye te fè leve soti nan lanmò a, pa non de sila a menm, mesye sa a a kanpe devan nou an bòn sante.
Be it known unto you all, and unto all the people of Israel: that, in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, —whom, ye, crucified, whom, God, raised from among the dead, in him, doth, this man stand by, in your presence, whole.
11 ‘Se Li menm ki wòch ki te rejte pa nou menm ki t ap bati yo, men ki vin fè wòch ang prensipal la.’
This, is the stone, set at nought by you the builders, which became the head of the corner;
12 “Konsa, pa gen sali nan okenn lòt. Paske nanpwen lòt non anba syèl la ki bay pami lòm pa kilès nou dwe sove.”
And there is in no one else, salvation, for, neither is there any other name, under heaven, which hath been set forth among men, in which we must needs be saved.
13 Alò, lè yo te wè konfyans a Pierre avèk Jean, e te konprann ke yo pa t gen anpil edikasyon ni enstriksyon, yo te etone. Yo te rekonèt yo kon moun ki te avèk Jésus yo.
And, looking at Peter’s boldness of speech, and John’s, and having discovered that they were unlettered and obscure men, they began to marvel, recognising them also, that they had been with Jesus;
14 Epi lè yo te wè mesye ki te geri a te kanpe la avèk yo, yo pa t gen repons pou bay.
Seeing, the man also standing, with them, even the [man] who had been cured, they had nothing wherewith to contradict.
15 Men lè yo fin mande yo kite konsèy la, yo te fè konferans ansanm.
Howbeit, ordering them to go forth outside the high-council, they began to confer one with another,
16 Yo te di: “Alò kisa pou nou fè avèk mesye sa yo? Paske li byen klè a tout sila ki rete Jérusalem yo ke yon mirak byen enpòtan te fèt pa yo, e nou pa kapab di ke se pa vrè.
Saying—What are we to do with these men? For, indeed, that a notable sign hath come to pass through their means, unto all who are dwelling in Jerusalem, is manifest, and we cannot deny [it]!
17 “Men pou sa pa rive pi lwen pami pèp la, annou avèti yo pou yo pa pale ankò a okenn moun nan non sila a.”
Nevertheless, lest it further spread abroad among the people, let us charge them with threats, to be no more speaking upon this name, to any soul of man.
18 Yo te rele yo, e te kòmande yo pou yo pa pale ni enstwi menm nan non Jésus a.
And, calling them, they gave them the sweeping charge, —not to be sounding aloud, nor even to be teaching, upon the name of Jesus.
19 Men Pierre avèk Jean te reponn yo e te di: “Si li bon devan Bondye pou obeyi a nou menm olye a Bondye, nou mèt jije.
But, Peter and John, answering, said unto them—Whether it be right in presence of God, unto you, to be hearkening, rather than unto God, judge!
20 Paske nou menm, nou pa kapab sispann pale sa ke nou te wè ak tande.”
For, we, cannot but be speaking the things which we have seen and heard.
21 Konsa, lè yo te fin menase yo anplis, yo te lage yo, paske yo pa t kapab twouve baz pou pini yo, e akoz perèz a pèp la, paske yo tout t ap bay Bondye glwa pou sa ki te rive a.
They, however, further charging them with threats, let them go, finding nothing as to how they might chastise them, on account of the people; because, all, were glorifying God for that which had come to pass; —
22 Paske mesye a ki te resevwa mirak sila a, te gen plis ke karant ane.
For, more than forty years old, was the man, upon whom had taken place, this healing sign.
23 Lè yo te fin lage yo, yo te ale bò kote moun pa yo, e te rapòte a tout moun sa ke chèf prèt yo avèk ansyen yo te di yo.
But, when they had been let go, they came unto their own [friends], and told as many things as, unto them, the High-priests and Elders, had said.
24 Lè yo te tande sa, yo te leve vwa yo a Bondye ansanm, e te di: “O Bondye, se te Ou menm ki te fè syèl la ak tè a, lanmè, ak tout sa ki ladann,
And, they, having heard, with one accord, uplifted voice unto God, and said—O Sovereign! Thou, art he that made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things that are herein:
25 ki pa Lespri Sen an, selon bouch a Zansèt nou David te di: ‘Poukisa nasyon yo anraje konsa; e poukisa pèp yo anvizaje yon bagay anven?
Who, by our father, through means of the Holy Spirit, even by the mouth of David thy servant, said—Unto what end did nations rage, and, peoples, busy themselves with empty things?
26 Wa sou latè yo ap pran pòz yo e gwo chèf yo ap mete tèt yo ansanm kont Senyè a ak kont Kris Li a.’
The kings of the earth stationed themselves, and, the rulers, were gathered together, with one intent, against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27 “Paske vrèman, nan vil sa a, yo te rasanble ansanm kont sèvitè sen Ou an, Jésus, ke ou menm te onksyone a; Hérode ak Ponce Pilate ansanm avèk nasyon payen yo ak pèp Israël la,
For they were gathered together, of a truth, in this city, against thy holy servant Jesus, whom thou hadst anointed, —both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with them of the nations, and peoples of Israel; —
28 pou fè nenpòt bagay ke men Ou ak volonte Ou te deja planifye, pou fèt.
To do whatsoever, thy hand and thy counsel, marked out beforehand to come to pass.
29 E koulye a, Senyè, byen gade menas ke yo fè, e kite sèvitè ki mare ak Ou yo pale pawòl Ou avèk tout konfyans,
As to the present things, then, O Lord, —look upon their threats, and grant unto thy servants, with all freedom of utterance, to be speaking thy word,
30 pandan W ap lonje men Ou pou fè gerizon sign ak mirak yo k ap fèt nan non a sèvitè Sen Ou an, Jésus.”
By stretching forth thy hand for healing, and by the coming to pass of both signs and wonders, through the name of thy holy servant Jesus.
31 Lè yo te fin priye, plas kote yo te reyini an te vin souke. Yo tout te ranpli avèk Lespri Sen an, e yo te pale pawòl Bondye a avèk kouraj.
And, when they had made supplication, the place was shaken in which they were gathered together, and they were filled, one and all, with the Holy Spirit, and began speaking the word of God with freedom of utterance.
32 Tout nan gran foul a ki te kwè yo te vin yon sèl nan kè ak nanm. Pa t gen youn nan yo ki te gen byen ki te reklame pou pwòp tèt yo, men tout bagay te pou tout moun.
And, the throng of them that believed, had one heart and soul, and not so much as one was saying that, aught of his goods, was, his own, but they had all things common.
33 Avèk gran pouvwa, apòt yo t ap bay temwayaj a rezirèksyon Jésus Kris la, e lagras an abondans te vini sou yo tout.
And, with great power, were the apostles giving forth their witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus; great favour also was upon them all.
34 Paske pa t gen yon moun pami yo ki te nan bezwen, pwiske sila ki te mèt tè yo oubyen kay yo te vann yo e pote benefis a vant lan bay,
For there was not so much as anyone, lacking, among them; for, as many as were possessors of lands or houses, selling them, were bringing the prices of the things that were being sold,
35 pou mete yo nan pye apòt yo. Konsa, yo te distribiye a chak en ki te gen nenpòt bezwen.
And laying them at the feet of the Apostles, while on the other hand they were distributing unto each one, in so far as any one had, need.
36 Joseph, yon Levit ki te ne an Chypre ke yo te rele osi Barnabas, pa apòt yo, ki vle di Fis Ankourajman an
And, Joseph, who had been surnamed Barnabas by the Apostles, which is to be translated Son of Exhortation, —a Levite, a Cyprian by nation,
37 te gen yon mòso tè. Li te vann li e te pote kòb la mete l nan pye apòt yo.
Having a field, sold it, and brought the money and laid it at the feet of the Apostles.
