Asan'ny Apostoly 4
1 Ie mbe nisaontsy am’ondatio, le nivotrak’ am’iereo o mpisoroñeo naho ty beim-pigari’ i anjomban’ Añaharey naho o Tsadokeo,
And as they are speaking to the people, there came to them the priests, and the magistrate of the temple, and the Sadducees—
2 nitsimboetse te nañoke ondatio naho t’ie nitaroñe ty fivañonan-ko veloñe amy Iesoà.
being grieved because of their teaching the people, and preaching in Jesus the resurrection out of the dead—
3 Nipao-pitañe ama’e iereo le najoñe am-pandrohizañ’ ao ampara’ ty loak’ andro amy te nihaleñe.
and they laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was evening already;
4 Fe maro amo nahajanjiñe i tsaraio ty niantoke; va’e lime arivo ty ia’indaty rezay.
and many of those hearing the word believed, and the number of the men became, as it were, five thousand.
5 Ie amy loak’ àndroy, nivory e Ierosaleme ao o mpifeleke naho roandriañe naho mpanoki-dili’ iareoo
And it came to pass the next day, there were gathered together of them the rulers, and elders, and scribes, to Jerusalem,
6 naho i Anasy talèm-pisoroñe naho i Kaiafa naho i Jaona naho i Aleksandro vaho ze hene longo’ i talèm-pisoroñey.
and Annas the chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the family of the chief priest,
7 Aa ie fa nadoke añivo eo, le hoe ty nañontaneañe: ami’ty lili’ ia ndra ami’ty tahina’ ia ty nanoe’ areo o raha zao?
and having set them in the midst, they were inquiring, “In what power, or in what name did you do this?”
8 Lifotse i Arofo Masiñey t’i Petera nanao ty hoe: O ry mpifehe naho roandria’ ondatio:
Then Peter, having been filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: “Rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
9 Naho ty hasoa nanoe’ay amy lahilahy nideme’e nijanganeñey ty añotsohotsoa’ areo anay androany,
if we are examined today concerning the good deed to the ailing man, by whom he has been saved,
10 le hampahafohine’ay ama’areo naho amo nte Israele iabio te i tahina’ Iesoà nte Nazareta Norizañey, i naradorado’ areo fe natroan’ Añahare amy havilasiiy, ty ijohaña’ t’indaty jangañe toy añatrefa’areo etoa,
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 Ie i vato nadò’ areo mpandrafitsey, naho fa vato-lahi’e henaneo.
This is the stone that was set at nothing by you—the builders, that became head of a corner;
12 Le tsy aman’ iaia ila’e ty fandrombahañe, amy te tsy nitolorañe tahinañe ila’e ambane’ i likerañey ondatio, ze maharombak’ antika.
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 Ie nahaisake ty fahasibeha’ i Petera naho i Jaona, naho nahaoniñe te ondaty tsy nianatse naho tsy nioke, le nilatsa vaho nahatiahy t’ie mpiam’ Iesoà.
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 Aa kanao niisake te nindre nijohañe am’iereo i lahilahy nijanganeñey, le tsy nahatìñe aze iereo,
and seeing the man standing with them who has been healed, they had nothing to say against [it],
15 f’ie nanitak’iareo mb’alafem-pivory ao vaho nisafiry
and having commanded them to go away out of the Sanhedrin, they took counsel with one another,
16 ty hoe: Hataon-tika akore i lahilahy rey? Ie midodea amo hene mpimoneñe e Ierosalemeo t’ie ro nanoañe raha tsitantane, tsy lefe-tika liereñe.
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 Aa, tsy mone ho losotse ty fiboelea’e am’ondatio, antao hañatahata iareo tsy hivolañe i añarañey ama’ ondaty ndra iaia.
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 Le nikanjiañe vaho nililieñe t’ie tsy hivolañe naho tsy hañoke ami’ty tahina’ Iesoà ka.
And having called them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor to teach, in the Name of Jesus,
19 Fe hoe ty natoi’ i Petera naho i Jaona: Tsakoreo hera ho to am-pivazohoan’ Añahare, t’ie hañaoñe anahareo ambone’ i Andrianañahare?
and Peter and John answering to them said, “Whether it is righteous before God to listen to you rather than to God, judge;
20 Amy te tsi-mahay tsy taroñe’ay o raha niisa’ay naho jinanji’aio.
for we cannot but speak what we saw and heard.”
21 Aa ie nendahañe indraike, le navotsotse, fa tsy eo ty handafàñe iareo ty am’ondatio, ie hene nandrenge an’ Andrianañahare ty amy nitafatendrekey.
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 Nilosotse ty efa-polo taoñe i lahilahy nampiboahañe i vilom-pijangañañeiy.
for above forty years of age was the man on whom had been done this sign of the healing.
23 Ie nihaha le nimb’amo mpiama’ iareoo mb’eo nitalily i nisaontsia’ o mpisorom-beioy naho o roandriañeo.
And being let go, they went to their own friends, and declared whatever the chief priests and the elders said to them,
24 Ie nahajanjiñe, le nipoña-peo aman’ Añahare nanao kapindre ty hoe: Ry Iehovà, Ihe ro Andrianamboatse i likerañey naho ty tane toy naho i riakey vaho ze he’e am’iereo ao,
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 le nanoe’o am-palie’ i Davide mpitoro’oy, ty hoe: Ino ty mampidabadoa o kilakila ‘ndatio naho ty ikaboha’ondatio raha kafoake?
who, through the mouth of Your servant David, said, Why did nations rage, and peoples meditate vain things?
26 Miongake o mpanjaka’ ty tane toio, vaho mifanontoñe o mpifelekeo hiatreke Iehovà naho i Noriza’ey.’
The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the LORD and against His Christ;
27 Toe ami’ty rova toy ty nifanontona’ i Heroda naho i Pontio Pilato naho o kilakila ondatio mindre amo nte Israeleo, hañatreatre i Mpitoro’o masiñey, Iesoà Noriza’oy.
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 Nanoe’ iereo iaby ze sinafirim-pità’o naho nisatrien’ arofo’o taolo hanoeñe.
to do whatever Your hand and Your counsel determined before to come to pass.
29 Aa ie henane zao, ry Iehovà, vazohò o hatahata’ iareoo, le toloro fahasibehañe o mpitoro’oo hahafitaroña’ iareo o tsara’oo,
And now, LORD, look on their threatenings, and grant to Your servants to speak Your word with all freedom,
30 ie añitia’o fitàñe hampijangañe; vaho anoeñe an-tahina’ Iesoà mpitoro’o masiñey ty viloñe naho raha tsi-tantane.
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 Ie niloloke iereo, le niezeñezeñe i toetse nivoria’ iereoy; le fonga nilifotse i Arofo Masiñey vaho nahasibeke nisaontsy ty tsaran’ Añahare.
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 Songa nitraok’ arofo naho havelo i valobohòm-piantokey, le tsy eo ty nanao te aze o vara’eo fa kila nitraofañe.
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 Tan-kafatraram-bey ty nitalilia’ o Firàheñeo i fivañonam-belo’ Iesoà Talèy, vaho am’ iereo iaby ty hasoa mitoabotse.
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 Tsy amam-pisotry iereo, fa ze aman-tane ndra anjomba ro nandeta naho ninday ty vili’ i naletakey,
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 le nibanabana’e am-pandia’ o Firàheñeo vaho hene nitsahareñe am’ondatio songa ty amy paiañey.
and were laying them at the feet of the apostles, and distribution was being made to each according as anyone had need.
36 Teo t’i Josefe, nte-Levy boake Kiprosy, i natao’ o Firàheñeo Barnabasiy, (ze midika: Anam-pañohòañe).
And Joses, who was surnamed by the apostles Barnabas—which is, having been interpreted, Son of Comfort—a Levite, of Cyprus by birth,
37 Nanan-tane re, le naleta’e naho nendese’e i volay vaho nazotso’e am-pandia’ o Firàheñeo.
a field being his, having sold [it], brought the money and laid [it] at the feet of the apostles.
