< प्रेरित 5 >

1 अब एक जना हननिया नाउँ गरेका मानिसले आफ्नी पत्‍नी सफिरासँग मिलेर एक टुक्रा जमिन बेचे ।
And a certain man, Ananias by name, with his wife Sapphira, sold a possession,
2 र उनले त्यो पैसाको केही अंश आफूसँगै राखे (यो कुरा उनकी पत्‍नीलाई पनि थाहा थियो) र यसको बाँकी अंश ल्याएर प्रेरितहरूको पाउमा राखिदिए ।
and kept back of the price—his wife also knowing—and having brought a certain part, he laid [it] at the feet of the apostles.
3 तर पत्रुसले भने, “हननिया, पवित्र आत्मालाई झुट बोल्न र त्यस जमिनको मूल्यको केही अंश राख्‍नलाई तिम्रो हृदयलाई शैतानले किन भर्‍यो?
And Peter said, “Ananias, why did Satan fill your heart, for you to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back of the price of the place?
4 यसलाई बिक्री नगर्दा पनि के यो तिम्रो आफ्नो थिएन र? अनि यसलाई बेचिसकेपछि पनि यो तिम्रो आफ्नै नियन्‍त्रणमा नै थिएन र? तिमीले तिम्रो हृदयमा यस्तो कुरा कसरी सोच्यौ? तिमीले मानिसहरूलाई होइन तर परमेश्‍वरलाई झुट बोलेका छौ ।
While it remained, did it not remain yours? And having been sold, was it not in your authority? Why [is] it that you put this thing in your heart? You did not lie to men, but to God”;
5 यी कुराहरू सुनेर हननिया भुइँमा लडे र उनको मृत्यु भयो र यो कुरा सुन्‍नेहरू सबैमा ठुलो डर छायो ।
and Ananias hearing these words, having fallen down, expired, and great fear came on all who heard these things,
6 जवान मानिसहरू अगाडि आए र उनलाई कपडाले बेह्रे र तिनीहरूले उनलाई बोकेर बाहिर लगे र गाडे ।
and having risen, the younger men wound him up, and having carried forth, they buried [him].
7 त्यसको झण्डै तिन घण्टापछि उनकी पत्‍नी त्यहाँ के भएको थियो भन्‍ने थाहै नपाई भित्र आइन् ।
And it came to pass, about three hours after, that his wife, not knowing what has happened, came in,
8 पत्रुसले उनलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले सो जमिनलाई त्यत्ति नै मूल्यमा बेचेका हौ या होइनौ, मलाई बताऊ ।” उनले भनिन्, “हो, त्यत्तिमा नै हो ।”
and Peter answered her, “Tell me if for so much you sold the place”; and she said, “Yes, for so much.”
9 तब पत्रुसले उनलाई भने, “तिमीहरू परमप्रभुको आत्मालाई जाँच गर्न कसरी सँगै सहमत भयौ? हेर, तिम्रो पतिलाई गाड्नेहरूका पाउ ढोकामा नै छन् र तिनीहरूले तिमीलाई पनि बोकेर बाहिर लानेछन् ।
And Peter said to her, “How was it agreed by you to tempt the Spirit of the LORD? Behold, the feet of those who buried your husband [are] at the door, and they will carry you forth”;
10 तिनी तुरुन्तै उनको पाउमा लडिन् र तिनको मृत्यु भयो र ती जवान मानिसहरू भित्र आए र तिनलाई मृत भेट्टाए; तिनीहरूले तिनलाई बोकेर बाहिर लगे र तिनलाई तिनको पतिको नजिकै गाडिदिए ।
and immediately she fell down at his feet, and expired, and the young men having come in, found her dead, and having carried forth, they buried [her] by her husband;
11 पुरै मण्डलीमा र यी कुराहरू सुन्‍ने सबैमा ठुलो डर छायो ।
and great fear came on all the Assembly, and on all who heard these things.
12 प्रेरितहरूको हातद्वारा मानिसहरूका बिचमा धेरै चिह्न र आश्‍चर्यकर्महरू भइरहेका थिए । तिनीहरू सबै सोलोमनको दलानमा सँगै थिए ।
And through the hands of the apostles came many signs and wonders among the people, and they were all with one accord in the porch of Solomon;
13 तिनीहरूलाई मानिसहरूद्वारा उच्‍च सम्मान मिलेको भए तापनि कसैले पनि तिनीहरूसँगै सामेल हुन साहस गरेनन् ।
and of the rest no one was daring to join himself to them, but the people were magnifying them,
14 अझ धेरै विश्‍वासीहरू अर्थात् असंख्य स्‍त्रीहरू र पुरुषहरू प्रभुमा थपिँदै थिए ।
(and the more were believers added to the LORD, multitudes of both men and women),
15 पत्रुस त्यहाँबाट भएर आउँदा तिनको छाया तिनीहरूमध्ये कोहीमाथि परोस् भनेर तिनीहरूले बिरामीहरूलाई गल्लीहरूमा बोकेर ल्याए र तिनीहरूलाई खाट र पलङहरूमा राखे ।
so as to bring forth the ailing into the broad places, and to lay [them] on beds and pallets, that at the coming of Peter, even [his] shadow might overshadow someone of them;
16 त्यहाँ यरूशलेम वरिपरिका सहरहरूबाट पनि बिरामी र अशुद्ध आत्माले सताइएका मानिसहरू ठुलो संख्यामा आए र तिनीहरू सबैले निको भए ।
and there were also coming together the people of the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, carrying ailing persons, and those harassed by unclean spirits—who were all healed.
17 तर प्रधान पूजाहारी र उनीसँग रहनेहरू सबै जना (जुन सदूकीहरूको सम्प्रदाय हो) उठे र तिनीहरू ईर्ष्याले भरिए ।
And having risen, the chief priest, and all those with him—being the sect of the Sadducees—were filled with zeal,
18 तिनीहरूले प्रेरितहरूमाथि हात हाले र तिनीहरूलाई सार्वजनिक झ्यालखानामा थुनिदिए ।
and laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in a public prison;
19 तर रातको समयमा परमप्रभुका एउटा दूतले झ्यालखानाका ढोकाहरू खोलिदिए र तिनीहरूलाई बाहिर लगे र भने,
but through the night a messenger of the LORD opened the doors of the prison, having also brought them forth, he said,
20 “जाओ र त्यस मन्दिरमा खडा होओ र यस जीवनका सबै वचनहरू मानिसहरूलाई बताओ ।”
“Go on, and standing, speak in the temple to the people all the sayings of this life”;
21 जब तिनीहरूले यो कुरा सुने तब तिनीहरू सबेरै मन्दिरभित्र प्रवेश गरे र शिक्षा दिए । तर प्रधान पूजाहारी र तिनीहरूसँग भएकाहरू आए र परिषद्लाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका एल्डरहरूसँगै बोलाए र प्रेरितहरूलाई ल्याउन लगाउनलाई झ्यालखानामा पठाए ।
and having heard, they entered into the temple at the dawn, and were teaching. And the chief priest having come, and those with him, they called together the Sanhedrin and all the Senate of the sons of Israel, and they sent to the prison to have them brought,
22 तर ती गएका अधिकारीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई झ्यालखानामा भेट्टाएनन् र तिनीहरू फर्केर आए र प्रतिवेदन दिए ।
and the officers having come, did not find them in the prison, and having turned back, they told,
23 “हामीले झ्यालखानालाई राम्ररी बन्द गरिएको पायौँ र पहरेदारहरू ढोकामा उभिरहेका थिए, तर त्यसलाई खोल्दा हामीले भित्र कोही पनि भेट्टाएनौँ ।”
saying, “We indeed found the prison shut in all safety, and the keepers standing outside before the doors, and having opened—we found no one within.”
24 जब मन्दिरका कप्‍तान र मुख्य पूजाहारीहरूले यी कुराहरू सुने, के हुने होला भनी तिनीहरू अन्योलमा परे ।
And as the priest, and the magistrate of the temple, and the chief priests, heard these words, they were doubting concerning them to what this would come;
25 तब कोही तिनीहरूकहाँ आए र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तपाईंहरूले झ्यालखानामा राख्‍नुभएका ती मानिसहरू, मन्दिरमा खडा भएर मानिसहरूलाई सिकाइरहेका छन् ।”
and coming near, a certain one told them, saying, “Behold, the men whom you put in the prison are in the temple standing and teaching the people”;
26 त्यसैले, कप्‍तान हाकिमहरूसँगै गए र तिनीहरूलाई हिंसाविना नै फर्काएर ल्याए । किनकि तिनीहरू मानिसहरूले ढुङ्गाले हान्लान् भनी डराए ।
then the magistrate having gone away with officers, brought them without violence, for they were fearing the people, lest they should be stoned;
27 तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई ल्याएपछि, तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई सभाको अगि राखे । प्रधान पूजाहारीले उनीहरूलाई यसो भनेर सोधपुछ गरे,
and having brought them, they set [them] in the Sanhedrin, and the chief priest questioned them,
28 “हामीले तिमीहरूलाई यस नाउँमा नसिकाउनलाई कडा आज्ञा दियौँ तर पनि तिमीहरूले आफ्नो शिक्षाले यरूशलेम भरिसकेका छौ र त्यस मानिसको रगत हामीमाथि ल्याउने इच्छा गर्छौ ।”
saying, “Did we not strictly command you not to teach in this Name? And behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and you intend to bring on us the blood of this Man.”
29 तर पत्रुस र प्रेरितहरूले जवाफ दिए, “हामीले मानिसहरूको भन्दा परमेश्‍वरको आज्ञा पालन गर्नु पर्छ ।
And Peter and the apostles answering, said, “It is required to obey God, rather than men;
30 हाम्रा पितापुर्खाका परमेश्‍वरले येशूलाई मृत्युबाट उठाउनु भयो, जसलाई तपाईंहरूले रुखमा झुण्ड्याएर मार्नुभयो ।
and the God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you slew, having hanged on a tree;
31 परमेश्‍वरले इस्राएललाई पश्‍चात्ताप गर्न र पापको क्षमा प्रदान गर्न उहाँलाई राजकुमार र मुक्तिदाता हुनलाई आफ्नो दाहिने हाततर्फ उचाल्नु भयो ।
this One, God, a Prince and a Savior, has exalted with His right hand, to give conversion to Israel, and forgiveness of sins;
32 हामीहरू यी कुराहरूका साक्षी छौँ र पवित्र आत्मा पनि यसको साक्षी हुनुहुन्छ जसलाई परमेश्‍वरले उहाँको आज्ञा पालन गर्नेहरूलाई दिनुभएको छ ।”
and we are His witnesses of these sayings, and the Holy Spirit also, whom God gave to those obeying Him.”
33 जब परिषद्का सदस्यहरूले यो सुने तब तिनीहरू क्रुद्ध भए र प्रेरितहरूलाई मार्ने चाहना गरे ।
And they having heard, were cut [to the heart], and were intending to slay them,
34 तर गमलिएल नाउँ गरेका फरिसी र व्यवस्थाका एक जना शिक्षक थिए जो सबै मानिसहरूद्वारा सम्मानित थिए । उनी उभिए र केही समयको लागि प्रेरितहरूलाई बाहिर रहनलाई आज्ञा गरे ।
but a certain one, having risen up in the Sanhedrin—a Pharisee, by name Gamaliel, a teacher of law honored by all the people—commanded to put the apostles forth a little,
35 तब उनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “इस्राएलका मानिसहरू हो, तपाईंहरूले यी मानिसहरूलाई जे गर्नलाई प्रस्ताव गर्नुभएको छ, त्यसमा राम्ररी ध्यान दिनुहोस् ।
and said to them, “Men, Israelites, take heed to yourselves about these men, what you are about to do,
36 केही समयअगि, थूदास केही हुँ भन्‍ने दाबी गर्दै खडा भयो, र झण्डै चार सय जना मानिस त्योसँगै लागे । त्यो मारियो र त्यसका आज्ञा पालन गर्नेहरू सबै तितरवितर भए र त्यो सब छरपस्ट भयो ।
for before these days Theudas rose up, saying that he was someone, to whom a number of men joined themselves, as it were four hundred, who was slain, and all, as many as were obeying him, were scattered, and came to nothing.
37 त्यो मानिसपछि जनगणनाको समयमा गालीलको यहूदा खडा भयो र कतिपय मानिसहरूलाई आफ्नो पछि खिँच्यो । त्यो पनि नष्‍ट भयो र उसका आज्ञा पालन गर्दै आइरहेकाहरू सबै छरपस्ट भए ।
After this one, Judas the Galilean rose up, in the days of the census, and drew away people after him, and that one perished, and all, as many as were obeying him, were scattered;
38 अब म तपाईंहरूलाई भन्छु कि यी मानिसहरूबाट टाढै रहनुहोस् र यिनीहरूलाई छोडिदिनुहोस् किनकि यदि यो योजना वा काम मानिसहरूको हो भने, यो पतन हुनेछ ।
and now I say to you, refrain from these men, and leave them alone, because if this counsel or this work may be of men, it will be overthrown,
39 तर यदि यो परमेश्‍वरको हो भने, तपाईंहरूले तिनीहरूलाई पतन गराउन सक्‍नुहुन्‍न र तपाईंहरूले आफैँलाई परमेश्‍वरको विरुद्धमा लडिरहेको पाउनु हुनेछ ।” यसरी तिनीहरूले तिनको कुरा माने ।
and if it be of God, you are not able to overthrow it, lest perhaps you are also found fighting against God.”
40 तब तिनीहरूले प्रेरितहरूलाई भित्र बोलाए र उनीहरूलाई कुटे र येशूको नाउँमा नबोल्नलाई आज्ञा गरे र तिनीहरूलाई जान दिए ।
And to him they agreed, and having called near the apostles, having beaten [them], they commanded [them] not to speak in the Name of Jesus, and let them go;
41 तिनीहरू त्यस नाउँको निम्ति अपमान भोग्‍न योग्यका गनिएकामा तिनीहरूले अनान्दित हुँदै त्यो परिषद् छाडे ।
they, indeed, then, departed from the presence of the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that for His Name they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor,
42 त्यसपछि हरेक दिन मन्दिर र घर-घरमा, तिनीहरूले निरन्तर येशूलाई नै ख्रीष्‍टको रूपमा सिकाइरहेका र प्रचार गरिरहेका थिए ।
also every day in the temple, and in every house, they were not ceasing teaching and proclaiming good news—Jesus the Christ.
