پْریرِتاح 4

1 یَسْمِنْ سَمَیے پِتَرَیوہَنَو لوکانْ اُپَدِشَتَسْتَسْمِنْ سَمَیے یاجَکا مَنْدِرَسْیَ سیناپَتَیَح سِدُوکِیگَنَشْچَ

Now as they were speaking to the people, the priests, the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came at them,

2 تَیورْ اُپَدیشَکَرَنے کھْرِیشْٹَسْیوتّھانَمْ اُپَلَکْشْیَ سَرْوّیشاں مرِتانامْ اُتّھانَپْرَسْتاوے چَ وْیَگْراح سَنْتَسْتاوُپاگَمَنْ۔

being upset because they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

3 تَو دھرِتْوا دِناوَسانَکارَناتْ پَرَدِنَپَرْیَّنَنْتَں رُدّھوا سْتھاپِتَوَنْتَح۔

And they laid hands on them and put them in custody until the next day, because it was already evening.

4 تَتھاپِ یے لوکاسْتَیورُپَدیشَمْ اَشرِنْوَنْ تیشاں پْرایینَ پَنْچَسَہَسْرانِ جَنا وْیَشْوَسَنْ۔

(However, many of those who heard the message believed; the number of the men came to be about five thousand.)

5 پَرےہَنِ اَدھِپَتَیَح پْراچِینا اَدھْیاپَکاشْچَ ہانَنَناما مَہایاجَکَح

So the next day an assembly of their rulers, both elders and scribes, occurred in Jerusalem,

6 کِیَپھا یوہَنْ سِکَنْدَرَ اِتْیادَیو مَہایاجَکَسْیَ جْناتَیَح سَرْوّے یِرُوشالَمْنَگَرے مِلِتاح۔

along with Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, John and Alexander, and as many as were of high-priestly descent.

7 اَنَنْتَرَں پْریرِتَو مَدھْیے سْتھاپَیِتْواپرِچّھَنْ یُواں کَیا شَکْتَیا وا کینَ نامْنا کَرْمّانْییتانِ کُرُتھَح؟

And having placed them in the middle [of the assembly] they started questioning: “By what power, or by what name did you do this?”

8 تَدا پِتَرَح پَوِتْریناتْمَنا پَرِپُورْنَح سَنْ پْرَتْیَوادِیتْ، ہے لوکانامْ اَدھِپَتِگَنَ ہے اِسْراییلِییَپْراچِیناح،

Then Peter, full of Holy Spirit, said to them: “Rulers of the people and elders of Israel:

9 ایتَسْیَ دُرْبَّلَمانُشَسْیَ ہِتَں یَتْ کَرْمّاکْرِیَتَ، اَرْتھاتْ، سَ یینَ پْرَکارینَ سْوَسْتھوبھَوَتْ تَچّیدْ اَدْیاواں پرِچّھَتھَ،

If we are being examined today about a good deed done to a helpless man, by what means he has been made well,

10 تَرْہِ سَرْوَّ اِسْرایےلِییَلوکا یُویَں جانِیتَ ناسَرَتِییو یو یِیشُکھْرِیشْٹَح کْرُشے یُشْمابھِرَوِدھْیَتَ یَشْچیشْوَرینَ شْمَشانادْ اُتّھاپِتَح، تَسْیَ نامْنا جَنویَں سْوَسْتھَح سَنْ یُشْماکَں سَمُّکھے پْروتِّشْٹھَتِ۔

be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Natsorean, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole.

11 نِچیترِبھِ رْیُشْمابھِرَیَں یَح پْرَسْتَرووَجْناتوبھَوَتْ سَ پْرَدھانَکونَسْیَ پْرَسْتَروبھَوَتْ۔

This is ‘the stone which was despised by you, the builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.’

12 تَدْبھِنّادَپَراتْ کَسْمادَپِ پَرِتْرانَں بھَوِتُں نَ شَکْنوتِ، یینَ تْرانَں پْراپْییتَ بھُومَنْڈَلَسْیَلوکاناں مَدھْیے تادرِشَں کِمَپِ نامَ ناسْتِ۔

Also, the salvation does not exist in anyone else, because there is no other name under heaven, given among men, by which we must be saved.”

13 تَدا پِتَرَیوہَنوریتادرِشِیمْ اَکْشیبھَتاں درِشْٹْوا تاوَوِدْواںسَو نِیچَلوکاوِتِ بُدّھوا آشْچَرْیَّمْ اَمَنْیَنْتَ تَو چَ یِیشوح سَنْگِنَو جاتاوِتِ جْناتُمْ اَشَکْنُوَنْ۔

Now upon observing the boldness of Peter and John and perceiving that they were uneducated and unskilled men, they marveled; and they recognized that they had been with Jesus.

14 کِنْتُ تابھْیاں سارْدّھَں تَں سْوَسْتھَمانُشَں تِشْٹھَنْتَں درِشْٹْوا تے کامَپْیَپَرامْ آپَتِّں کَرْتَّں ناشَکْنُنْ۔

Further, seeing the man who had been healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.

15 تَدا تے سَبھاتَح سْتھانانْتَرَں گَنْتُں تانْ آجْناپْیَ سْوَیَں پَرَسْپَرَمْ اِتِ مَنْتْرَنامَکُرْوَّنْ

So ordering them to go out from the council they began to confer among themselves,

16 تَو مانَوَو پْرَتِ کِں کَرْتَّوْیَں؟ تاویکَں پْرَسِدّھَمْ آشْچَرْیَّں کَرْمَّ کرِتَوَنْتَو تَدْ یِرُوشالَمْنِواسِناں سَرْوّیشاں لوکاناں سَمِیپے پْراکاشَتَ تَچَّ وَیَمَپَہْنوتُں نَ شَکْنُمَح۔

saying: “What can we do to these men? Because, indeed, that a notable miracle has been done through them is evident to all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.

17 کِنْتُ لوکاناں مَدھْیَمْ ایتَدْ یَتھا نَ وْیاپْنوتِ تَدَرْتھَں تَو بھَیَں پْرَدَرْشْیَ تینَ نامْنا کَمَپِ مَنُشْیَں نوپَدِشَتَمْ اِتِ درِڈھَں نِشیدھامَح۔

But so that it spreads no further among the people, let us severely threaten them to no longer speak to anyone in this name.”

18 تَتَسْتے پْریرِتاواہُویَ ایتَداجْناپَیَنْ اِتَح پَرَں یِیشو رْنامْنا کَداپِ کامَپِ کَتھاں ما کَتھَیَتَں کِمَپِ نوپَدِشَنْچَ۔

So summoning them they commanded them absolutely not to speak or teach in the name of ‘Jesus’.

19 تَتَح پِتَرَیوہَنَو پْرَتْیَوَدَتامْ اِیشْوَرَسْیاجْناگْرَہَنَں وا یُشْماکَمْ آجْناگْرَہَنَمْ ایتَیو رْمَدھْیے اِیشْوَرَسْیَ گوچَرے کِں وِہِتَں؟ یُویَں تَسْیَ وِویچَناں کُرُتَ۔

But in answer Peter and John said to them: “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, judge for yourselves;

20 وَیَں یَدْ اَپَشْیامَ یَدَشرِنُمَ چَ تَنَّ پْرَچارَیِشْیامَ ایتَتْ کَداپِ بھَوِتُں نَ شَکْنوتِ۔

because we cannot help but speak the things we have seen and heard.”

21 یَدَگھَٹَتَ تَدْ درِشْٹا سَرْوّے لوکا اِیشْوَرَسْیَ گُنانْ اَنْوَوَدَنْ تَسْماتْ لوکَبھَیاتْ تَو دَنْڈَیِتُں کَمَپْیُپایَں نَ پْراپْیَ تے پُنَرَپِ تَرْجَیِتْوا تاوَتْیَجَنْ۔

So threatening them some more they released them, not finding any way to punish them, because of the people, since they were all glorifying God over what had happened;

22 یَسْیَ مانُشَسْیَیتَتْ سْواسْتھْیَکَرَنَمْ آشْچَرْیَّں کَرْمّاکْرِیَتَ تَسْیَ وَیَشْچَتْوارِںشَدْوَتْسَرا وْیَتِیتاح۔

because the man on whom this miracle of healing had been performed was over forty years old.

23 تَتَح پَرَں تَو وِسرِشْٹَو سَنْتَو سْوَسَنْگِناں سَنِّدھِں گَتْوا پْرَدھانَیاجَکَیح پْراچِینَلوکَیشْچَ پْروکْتاح سَرْوّاح کَتھا جْناپِتَوَنْتَو۔

So upon being released they went to their own group and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.

24 تَچّھرُتْوا سَرْوَّ ایکَچِتِّیبھُویَ اِیشْوَرَمُدِّشْیَ پْروچَّیریتَتْ پْرارْتھَیَنْتَ، ہے پْرَبھو گَگَنَپرِتھِوِیپَیودھِیناں تیشُ چَ یَدْیَدْ آسْتے تیشاں سْرَشْٹیشْوَرَسْتْوَں۔

Well upon hearing it, with one mind they called out to God and said: “O Sovereign! You are God, the Maker of sky and earth and ocean, and all that is in them;

25 تْوَں نِجَسیوَکینَ دایُودا واکْیَمِدَمْ اُوَچِتھَ، مَنُشْیا اَنْیَدیشِییاح کُرْوَّنْتِ کَلَہَں کُتَح۔ لوکاح سَرْوّے کِمَرْتھَں وا چِنْتاں کُرْوَّنْتِ نِشْپھَلاں۔

You who said through the mouth of Your servant David: ‘Why did nations snort and peoples plot vain things?

26 پَرَمیشَسْیَ تینَیوابھِشِکْتَسْیَ جَنَسْیَ چَ۔ وِرُدّھَمَبھِتِشْٹھَنْتِ پرِتھِوْیاح پَتَیَح کُتَح۔۔

The kings of the earth took a stand, and the rulers were gathered together, against the Lord and against His Messiah.’

27 پھَلَتَسْتَوَ ہَسْتینَ مَنْتْرَنَیا چَ پُورْوَّ یَدْیَتْ سْتھِرِیکرِتَں تَدْ یَتھا سِدّھَں بھَوَتِ تَدَرْتھَں تْوَں یَمْ اَتھِشِکْتَوانْ سَ ایوَ پَوِتْرو یِیشُسْتَسْیَ پْراتِکُولْیینَ ہیرودْ پَنْتِییَپِیلاتو

Well, in fact, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, together with Gentiles and peoples of Israel, were gathered together against Your holy Servant Jesus, whom You anointed,

28 نْیَدیشِییَلوکا اِسْراییلّوکاشْچَ سَرْوَّ ایتے سَبھایامْ اَتِشْٹھَنْ۔

to do whatever Your hand and Your counsel foreordained to happen.

29 ہے پَرَمیشْوَرَ اَدھُنا تیشاں تَرْجَنَں گَرْجَنَنْچَ شرِنُ؛

As for the present, Lord, consider their threats, and grant to Your slaves to speak Your word with all boldness,

30 تَتھا سْواسْتھْیَکَرَنَکَرْمَّنا تَوَ باہُبَلَپْرَکاشَپُورْوَّکَں تَوَ سیوَکانْ نِرْبھَیینَ تَوَ واکْیَں پْرَچارَیِتُں تَوَ پَوِتْرَپُتْرَسْیَ یِیشو رْنامْنا آشْچَرْیّانْیَسَمْبھَوانِ چَ کَرْمّانِ کَرْتُّنْچاجْناپَیَ۔

while You stretch out Your hand to heal and that signs and wonders may occur through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus.”

31 اِتّھَں پْرارْتھَنَیا یَتْرَ سْتھانے تے سَبھایامْ آسَنْ تَتْ سْتھانَں پْراکَمْپَتَ؛ تَتَح سَرْوّے پَوِتْریناتْمَنا پَرِپُورْناح سَنْتَ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ کَتھامْ اَکْشوبھینَ پْراچارَیَنْ۔

Well when they had prayed, the place where they were gathered was shaken, and they were all filled with Holy Spirit and spoke the Word of God with boldness.

32 اَپَرَنْچَ پْرَتْیَیَکارِلوکَسَمُوہا ایکَمَنَسَ ایکَچِتِّیبھُویَ سْتھِتاح۔ تیشاں کیپِ نِجَسَمْپَتِّں سْوِییاں ناجانَنْ کِنْتُ تیشاں سَرْوّاح سَمْپَتّیَح سادھارَنْیینَ سْتھِتاح۔

Now the multitude of those who believed was of one heart and soul; indeed not one was saying that any of his belongings was his own, but they had all things in common.

33 اَنْیَچَّ پْریرِتا مَہاشَکْتِپْرَکاشَپُورْوَّکَں پْرَبھو رْیِیشورُتّھانے ساکْشْیَمْ اَدَدُح، تیشُ سَرْوّیشُ مَہانُگْرَہوبھَوَچَّ۔

(Also the Apostles were giving witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus with great power.) Yes, great grace was on them all,

34 تیشاں مَدھْیے کَسْیاپِ دْرَوْیَنْیُونَتا نابھَوَدْ یَتَسْتیشاں گرِہَبھُومْیادْیا یاح سَمْپَتَّیَ آسَنْ تا وِکْرِییَ

because there were not any needy among them—as many as were owners of lands or houses were selling them and bringing the proceeds of the sold items

35 تَنْمُولْیَمانِییَ پْریرِتاناں چَرَنیشُ تَیح سْتھاپِتَں؛ تَتَح پْرَتْییکَشَح پْرَیوجَنانُسارینَ دَتَّمَبھَوَتْ۔

and placing them at the Apostles' feet, and they were distributed to each according as anyone had need.

36 وِشیشَتَح کُپْروپَدْوِیپِییو یوسِنامَکو لیوِوَںشَجاتَ ایکو جَنو بھُومْیَدھِکارِی، یَں پْریرِتا بَرْنَبّا اَرْتھاتْ سانْتْوَنادایَکَ اِتْیُکْتْوا سَماہُویَنْ،

So Joses, who was named Barnabas by the Apostles (which is, being translated, ‘Son of encouragement’), a Levite of the country of Cyprus,

37 سَ جَنو نِجَبھُومِں وِکْرِییَ تَنْمُولْیَمانِییَ پْریرِتاناں چَرَنیشُ سْتھاپِتَوانْ۔

having a field, sold it, brought the money and placed it at the Apostles' feet.
