प्रेरित 4

1 जब पत्रुस र यूहन्‍ना मानिसहरूसँग बोलिरहेका थिए, पूजाहारीहरू, मन्दिरका मुख्य व्यक्ति र सदूकीहरू तिनीहरूकहाँ आए ।

And while they were speaking to the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the sadducees came upon them,

2 पत्रुस र यूहन्‍नाले मानिसहरूलाई येशूको बारेमा सिकाइरहेका र उहाँको मृत्युबाट पुनरुत्थान हुनुभएको घोषणा गरिरहेका कारण उनीहरूलाई साह्रै गाह्रो भयो ।

being vexed that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

3 उनीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई पक्रे र अर्को बिहानसम्मका लागि झ्यालखानामा हालिदिए, किनभने त्यतिबेला साँझ परिसकेको थियो ।

And they laid hands on them, and put them into custody till the next day: for it was now evening.

4 तर सन्देश सुनेका मानिसहरूमध्ये धेरै जनाले विश्‍वास गरे र विश्‍वास गर्ने मानिसहरूको सङ्ख्या करिब पाँच हजार थियो ।

But many of them who heard the word, believed: and the number of the men was about five thousand.

5 अर्को दिन तिनीहरूका शासकहरू, एल्डरहरू र शास्‍त्रीहरू यरूशलेममा जम्मा भए ।

And on the morrow their rulers, and elders, and scribes were gathered together at Jerusalem:

6 प्रधान पूजाहारी हन्‍नास, कैयाफा, यूहन्‍ना, अलेक्जेन्डर र प्रधान पूजाहारीका अरू सबै आफन्तहरू त्यहाँ थिए ।

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 जब उनीहरूले पत्रुस र यूहन्‍नालाई उनीहरूका माझमा राखे तब उनीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई सोधे, “तिमीहरूले कुन शक्ति वा कुन नाउँमा यसो गरेका हौ?”

And when they had set them in the midst, they asked them, By what power, or in what name have ye done this?

8 अनि पवित्र आत्माले भरिएर पत्रुसले उनीहरूलाई भने, “हे जनताहरूका शासकहरू र एल्डरहरू हो,

Then Peter filled with the holy Spirit said unto them, Ye rulers of the people,

9 यदि यो मानिसलाई कसरी ठिक पारियो भनी यो बिरामी मानिसलाई गरेको असल कामको बारेमा आज हामीलाई नै प्रश्‍न गरिदैँछ भने,

and elders of Israel, if we are this day examined about the benefit done to the impotent man,

10 तपाईंहरू सबै र इस्राएलका सबै मानिसहरूलाई यो थाहा होस् कि, तपाईंहरूले क्रुसमा टाँग्‍नुभएका र परमेश्‍वरले मृत्युबाट जीवित पार्नुभएका नासरतका येशू ख्रीष्‍टको नाउँद्वारा नै भएको हो कि यो मानिस तपाईंहरूको बिचमा यहाँ स्वस्थ भएर उभिएको छ ।

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 येशू ख्रीष्‍ट त्यो ढुङ्गा हुनुहुन्छ जसलाई तपाईं घर निर्माणकर्ताहरूले इन्कार गर्नुभयो तर उहाँ नै मुख्य कुनेढुङ्गा हुनुभयो ।

This is the stone that was set at nought by you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

12 अरू कुनै व्यक्तिमा मुक्ति छैन किनभने हामी बचाइनका लागि स्वर्गमुनि मानिसहरूका माझमा अर्को कुनै नाउँ दिइएको छैन ।”

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 जब तिनीहरूले पत्रुस र यूहन्‍नाको साहस देखे र महसुस गरे कि उनीहरू साधारण र आशिक्षित मानिसहरू थिए, तब पत्रुस र यूहन्‍ना येशूसँगै रहने गर्दथे भन्‍ने कुरा थाहा पाएर तिनीहरू छक्‍क परे ।

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 उनीहरूले त्यो निको भएको मानिस तिनीहरूसँगै उभिरहेको देखेको कारण तिनीहरूका विरुद्ध केही बोल्न सकेनन् ।

but seeing the man that was cured standing with them, they had nothing to say against it.

15 तर प्रेरितहरूलाई परिषद् बैठक छोड्न आज्ञा दिएपछि उनीहरू एकआपसमा कुरा गर्न थाले ।

Therefore they ordered them to withdraw from the council,

16 उनीहरूले भने, “यी मानिसहरूलाई हामी के गरौँ? किनकि तिनीहरूद्वारा गरिएको उल्लेखनीय आश्‍चर्यकर्मको वास्तविकता यरूशलेममा बस्‍ने हरेक मनिसलाई थाहा छ; हामी यसलाई इन्कार गर्न सक्दैनौँ ।

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 तर यो कुरा अझ बढी मानिसहरू बिचमा नफैलियोस् भनेर तिनीहरूलाई यो नाउँमा अब उसो कसैसँग पनि नबोल्नू भनी चेताउनी दिऔँ ।”

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 तिनीहरूले पत्रुस र यूहन्‍नालाई भित्र बोलाए र येशूको नाउँमा बोल्दै नबोल्नू न त शिक्षा नै दिनू भनी आज्ञा दिए ।

So they called them and commanded them not to speak at all, nor teach in the name of Jesus.

19 तर पत्रुस र यूहन्‍नाले उनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिए र भने, “परमेश्‍वरको नजरमा उहाँको भन्दा बढी तपाईंहरूको आज्ञापालन गर्नु उचित हो कि होइन, तपाईंहरू नै न्याय गर्नुहोस् ।

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 किनकि हामीले देखेका र सुनेका कुराहरूको बारेमा हामी नबोली रहन सक्दैनौँ ।”

for we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

21 अझ बढी चेताउनी दिएपछि उनीहरूले पत्रुस र यूहन्‍नालाई जान दिए । उनीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई दण्ड दिनको निम्ति कुनै पनि दोष भेट्टाउन सकेनन्, किनभने तिनीहरूले जे गरेका थिए त्यसको निम्ति मानिसहरूले परमेश्‍वरको प्रशंसा गरिरहेका थिए ।

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 यो चंगाइको आश्‍चर्यकर्म अनुभव गर्ने मानिस चालिस वर्षभन्दा माथिका थिए ।

For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miraculous cure was wrought.

23 तिनीहरूलाई स्वतन्‍त्र छोडेपछि, पत्रुस र यूहन्‍ना आफ्नै मानिसहरूकहाँ आए र प्रधान पूजाहारीहरू र एल्डरहरूले तिनीहरूलाई भनेका सबै कुराको प्रतिवेदन दिए ।

Being dismissed they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.

24 तिनीहरूले यो सुनेपछि आफ्ना आवाज परमेश्‍वरमा एकसाथ उचाले र भने, “हे प्रभु, तपाईं जसले आकास र पृथ्वी र समुद्र र त्यसमा भएका सबै थोक बनाउनुभयो,

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 तपाईं जो पवित्र आत्माद्वारा तपाईंका सेवक हाम्रा पिता दाऊदको मुखद्वारा बोल्नुभयो, ‘अरू जातिहरू किन क्रोधित भए र मानिसहरूले अर्थहीन कुराहरू कल्पना गरे?

who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

26 परमप्रभु र उहाँका ख्रीष्‍टको विरुद्धमा पृथ्वीका राजाहरू एक मत भए र शासकहरू एकसाथ भेला भए ।

The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against his anointed.

27 वास्तवमा, गैरयहूदीहरू र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूसँगै हेरोद र पन्तियस पिलातस दुवै यो शहरमा तपाईंले अभिषेक गर्नुभएका तपाईंका पवित्र सेवक येशूको विरुद्धमा भेला भए ।

For of a truth both Herod and Pontius Pilate, the Gentiles and the people of Israel, combined against thy holy child Jesus,

28 तपाईंको बाहुली र इच्छाले यो हुनुभन्दा पहिले नै निर्णय गर्नुभएको सबै कुरा गर्नलाई तिनीहरू सँगसँगै भेला भए ।

(whom Thou hast anointed, ) to do whatever thy hand and thy counsel had before determined to be done.

29 हे प्रभु, अब तिनीहरूका चेताउनीलाई हेर्नुहोस् र तपाईंका सेवकहरूलाई तपाईंको वचन पुरा साहससित बोल्न दिनुहोस् ।

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 ताकि जब तपाईंले निको पार्नका लागि आफ्नो हात पसार्नुहुन्छ तपाईंका पवित्र सेवक येशूको नाउँद्वारा चिन्हहरू र आश्‍चर्यहरू होऊन् ।”

and while signs and wonders are done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

31 तिनीहरूले प्रार्थना गरेर सिध्याएपछि तिनीहरू भेला भएको ठाउँ हल्लियो र तिनीहरू सबै पवित्र आत्माले भरिए र तिनीहरूले परमेश्‍वरको वचन साहससित बोले ।

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 विश्‍वास गर्नेहरूको त्यो ठुलो समूह एउटै हृदय र आत्माका थिए; तिनीहरूमध्ये कसैले पनि आफूसँग भएको कुनै पनि थोक वास्तवमा उसको आफ्नो हो भनेनन्, तर तिनीहरूका सबै थोक साझा थिए ।

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 ठुलो शक्तिसाथ प्रेरितहरूले प्रभु येशूको पुनरुत्थानको बारेमा गवाही घोषणा गर्दैथिए र उनीहरू सबैमाथि ठुलो अनुग्रह थियो ।

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 तिनीहरूमध्ये कुनै थोकको अभाव भएको कुनै एक व्यक्ति पनि थिएन किनभने तिनीहरू सबैले आफूसँग भएका जग्गाहरू र घरहरू बेचेर आएका पैसा ल्याउँथे

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 र प्रेरितहरूका पाउमा राखिदिन्थे र आवश्यकतापरेअनुसार हरेक विश्‍वसीलाई वितरण गरिन्थ्यो ।

and laid them at the apostles feet; and distribution was made to every one according to their necessity.

36 साइप्रसबाट आएका योसेफ नाउँका एक जना मानिस थिए जो लेवी कुलका थिए जसलाई प्रेरितहरूले बारनाबास (जसको अर्थ उत्साहको पुत्र हुन्छ) नाउँ राखिदिएका थिए ।

So Joses who was by the apostles sirnamed Barnabas, which is a son of consolation,

37 उनीसँग भएको जमिन उनले बेचे र त्यसको पैसा ल्याएर प्रेरितहरूको पाउमा राखिदिए ।

a Levite, by birth a Cyprian, having an estate, sold it and brought the money, and laid it at the feet of the apostles.
