Mabasa 5
1 Zvino mumwe murume ainzi Ananiasi, pamwe chete nomukadzi wake Safira, akatengesawo chikamu chepfuma yake.
A man now certain Ananias named with Sapphira the wife of him sold a property
2 Mukadzi wake achinyatsozvizivawo, akazvikamurira chimwe chikamu chemari, asi yakasara akauya nayo akaiisa pamberi pavapostori.
and he kept back from the proceeds, already being aware also the wife (of him, *k*) and having brought a portion certain at the feet of the apostles he laid [it].
3 Ipapo Petro akati, “Ananiasi, Satani azadzireiko mwoyo wako kudai, kuti usvike pakureva nhema kuMweya Mutsvene uye wazvikamurira imwe mari yawawana pakutengesa munda?
Said however (*no*) Peter; Ananias, because of why has filled Satan the heart of you to lie to [for] you the Spirit Holy and to keep back (yourself *o*) from the proceeds of the land?
4 Ko, wakanga usiri wako here usati watengeswa? Uye shure kwokunge wautengesa, mari yakanga isiri yako here? Chiiko chakaita kuti ufunge kuita chinhu chakadai? Hauna kureva nhema kuvanhu asi kuna Mwari.”
Surely remaining to you it was remaining And having been sold in the own authority it was? Why for did you purpose in the heart of you deed this? Not you have lied to men but to God!
5 Ananiasi akati anzwa izvi, akawira pasi akabva afa. Uye kutya kukuru kwakabata vose vakanga vanzwa zvakanga zvaitika.
Hearing now Ananias words these having fallen down he breathed his last. And came fear great upon all those hearing (these things; *k*)
6 Ipapo majaya akaswedera, akaputira muviri wake, akamutakura akaenda naye kunze vakandomuviga.
Having arisen then the younger [men] covered him and having carried [him] out they buried [him].
7 Shure kwamaawa anenge matatu mukadzi wake akasvikopinda, asingazivi zvakanga zvaitika.
It came to pass now about hours three afterward also the wife of him not knowing that having come to pass came in.
8 Petro akamubvunza akati, “Ndiudze, uyu ndiwo here mutengo wamakawana, iwe naAnaniasi, pamunda?” Iye akati, “Hongu, ndiwoyu mutengo.”
Replied then (to *no*) (her *N(k)O*) (*k*) Peter; do tell me if for so much the land you sold? And she said; Yes for so much.
9 Petro akati kwaari, “Matenderana seiko kuti muedze Mweya waShe? Tarira! Tsoka dzamajaya aviga murume wako dziri pamukova, uye vachakutakura newewo.”
But Peter (said *k*) to her; Why [is it] for it was agreed together by you to test the Spirit of [the] Lord? Behold the feet of those having buried the husband of you [are] at the door and they will carry out you.
10 Pakarepo akawira pasi, patsoka dzake akabva afa. Ipapo majaya akapinda uye akamuwana afa, akamutakura akaenda naye kunze akandomuviga parutivi pomurume wake.
She fell down then immediately (at *N(k)O*) the feet of him and breathed her last; Having come in then the young [men] found her dead, and having carried out they buried [her] by the husband of her;
11 Kutya kukuru kwakabata kereke yose navose vakanzwa zvinhu izvi.
And came fear great upon all the church and upon all those hearing these things.
12 Vapostori vakaita zviratidzo zvizhinji nezvishamiso pakati pavanhu. Uye vatendi vose vaiwanzosangana pamwe chete muBiravira raSoromoni.
By now the hands of the apostles (were happening *N(k)O*) signs and wonders many among the people; And they were with one accord (all *NK(o)*) in the Colonnade of Solomon;
13 Hakuna munhu akatsunga kubatana navo kunyange zvazvo vakanga vachikudzwa zvikuru navanhu.
of the now rest no [one] was daring to join with them, but were magnifying them the people.
14 Zvisinei zvazvo, varume vazhinji navakadzi vakatenda kuna She uye vakawedzera uwandu.
more now were added believing in the Lord, multitudes of men both and women,
15 Nokuda kwaizvozvo, vanhu vakauya navairwara munzira dzomumisha vakavaradzika pamibhedha napahukwe vachiitira kuti mumvuri waPetro uwire pane vamwe vavo paainge ava kupfuura napavari.
so as (even *no*) (into *N(k)O*) the streets to bring out the sick and to put [them] on (cots *N(k)O*) and mats, that when is coming Peter at least at least the shadow (shall envelop *NK(o)*) some of them.
16 Vanhu vazhinji zhinji vaibva mumaguta akapoteredza Jerusarema vakaunganawo, vakauya navarwere vavo navaya vaitambudzwa nemweya yakaipa, uye vose vakaporeswa.
Were coming together now also the multitude from the surrounding cities (into *k*) Jerusalem bringing [the] sick and [those] being tormented by spirits unclean, who were healed all.
17 Ipapo muprista mukuru navamwe vose vaaiva navo, avo vakanga vari nhengo dzebato ravaSadhusi, vakazadzwa negodo.
Having risen up however the high priest and all those with him, which is being [the] sect of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy
18 Vakasunga vapostori vakavaisa mujeri.
and they laid the hands (of them *k*) on the apostles and put them in [the] jail public.
19 Asi mutumwa waShe akauya usiku akazarura mukova wejeri akavabudisa,
An angel however of [the] Lord during (the *k*) night (having opened *N(k)O*) the doors of the prison, having brought out then them said;
20 akati, “Endai, mundomira muzvivanze zvetemberi, mugoudza vanhu mashoko ose oupenyu hutsva uhu.”
do go and having stood do speak in the temple to the people all the declarations of the life this.
21 Vakapinda mutemberi mangwanani, sezvavakanga vaudzwa, vakatanga kudzidzisa vanhu. Muprista mukuru navamwe vake vakati vasvika, vakaunganidza Dare Guru ramakurukota, ungano yose yavakuru, vakatumira vanhu kuti vandotora vapostori kujeri.
Having heard now they entered at the dawn into the temple and were teaching. Having come now the high priest and those with him they called together the Council even all the Senate of the sons of Israel and sent to the prison house to bring them.
22 Asi vabati vakati vasvika pajeri, vakawana vasimo. Saka vakadzokera vakasvikoti,
And having come [the] officers not did find them in the prison. having returned then they reported back
23 “Tawana jeri rakanyatsozarirwa, navarindi vamire pamikova; asi patazarura, hatina kuwana munhu mukati.”
saying that The (indeed *k*) prison house we found shut with all security and the guards (outside *K*) already standing (before *N(k)O*) the doors, having opened [them] however inside no [one] we found.
24 Vakati vanzwa chiziviso ichi, mukuru wavarindi vetemberi navaprista vakuru vakakanganisika, vachishaya kuti chii chaizoitika.
When now they heard words these both (the priest and the *K*) captain of the temple and the chief priests were perplexed concerning them, what maybe would be this.
25 Ipapo mumwe akasvika akati, “Tarirai! Varume vamakaisa mujeri vamire mutemberi vachidzidzisa vanhu.”
Having come then a certain one he reported to them (saying *k*) that Behold the men whom you put in the prison are in the temple already standing and teaching the people!
26 Paakazvinzwa, mukuru wavarindi akabva aenda navabati vake akandouya navapostori. Havana kuzviita nokumanikidza, nokuti vaitya kuti vanhu vangavatake namabwe.
Then having gone the captain with the officers (was bringing *N(k)O*) them not with force, they were afraid of for the people (so that *k*) lest they may be stoned.
27 Vakati vauya navapostori, vakavamisa pamberi peDare Guru kuti vabvunzwe nomuprista mukuru.
Having brought then them they set [them] in the Council. And asked them the high priest
28 Akati, “Takakurayirai zvakasimba kuti murege kudzidzisa muzita iri. Asi mazadza Jerusarema rose nedzidziso yenyu uye munoda kuti tive nemhosva yeropa romurume uyu.”
saying; (Surely *NK*) by a charge we commanded you not to teach in name this. And behold you have filled Jerusalem with the teaching of you and you intend to bring upon us the blood of the man this.
29 Petro navamwe vapostori vakapindura vachiti, “Tinofanira kuteerera Mwari kukunda vanhu!
Answering however (*k*) Peter and the apostles said; To obey it is necessary to God rather than to men.
30 Mwari wamadzibaba edu akamutsa Jesu kubva kuvakafa uyo wamakaita kuti aurayiwe nokumuturika pamuti.
The God of the fathers of us raised up Jesus whom you yourselves killed having hanged [Him] on a tree;
31 Mwari akamusimudzira kuruoko rwake rworudyi soMuchinda noMuponesi kuti ape kutendeuka nokuregererwa kwezvivi kuvaIsraeri.
Him God [as] Prince and Savior exalted by the right hand of Him (*no*) to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins.
32 Isu tiri zvapupu zvezvinhu izvi, uyewo noMweya Mutsvene wakapiwa naMwari kuna avo vanomuteerera.”
And we ourselves are (of him *k*) witnesses of the declarations these and also the Spirit (now *k*) Holy whom has given God to those obeying Him.
33 Vakati vanzwa izvi, vakashatirwa uye vakada kuvauraya.
And (having heard *NK(o)*) they felt cut up and (they were desiring *N(k)O*) to execute them.
34 Asi mumwe muFarisi ainzi Gamarieri, mudzidzisi womurayiro, uyo aikudzwa navanhu vose, akasimuka pakati pedare akarayira kuti vanhu vambobudiswa panze kwechinguvana.
Having risen up however a certain [man] in the Council a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law honored by all the people, he commanded [them] outside for a short (while *k*) the (men *N(K)O*) to put,
35 Ipapo akati kwavari, “Imi varume veIsraeri, nyatsofungai pamusoro pezvamuri kuda kuita kuvanhu ava.
He said then to them; Men Israelites, do take heed to yourselves with men these what you are about to do.
36 Munguva yakapfuura, kwakambova naTudhasi aizviti iye munhu mukuru, uye varume vanenge mazana mana vakamutevera. Akaurayiwa, vose vaimutevera vakaparadzirwa, uye zvikaguma zvava pasina.
Before for these days rose up Theudas affirming to be somebody himself, to whom (were joined *N(k)(o)*) of men number (about *N(k)O*) four hundred; who was executed, and all as many as were persuaded by him they were dispersed and they it came to no [thing].
37 Shure kwake, Judhasi weGarirea akambovapowo pamazuva okuverengwa kwavanhu akatungamirira boka ravanhu mune zvokupanduka. Naiyewo akaurayiwa, uye vose vaimutevera vakaparadzirwa.
After this man rose up Judas the Galilean in the days of the registration and drew away people (significant number of *K*) after him; And he And he perished, and all as many as were persuaded by him were scattered.
38 Naizvozvo, panyaya iyi ndinokurayirai kuti: Regai vanhu ava vakadaro! Regai vaende! Nokuti kana kufunga kwavo kuri kwomunhu, kuchaguma.
And now I say to you, do withdraw from men these and (do release *N(k)O*) them, for if shall be from men plan this or work this, it will be overthrown;
39 Asi kana kuchibva kuna Mwari, hamungagoni kukonesa vanhu ava; muchazoona kuti muri kurwa naMwari.”
if however from God it is, not (you will be able *N(k)O*) to overthrow (them, *N(K)O*) otherwise otherwise also fighting against God You shall be found.
40 Kutaura kwake kwakavadzikamisa. Vakadana vapostori kuti vapinde vakaita kuti varohwe. Ipapo vakavarayira kuti varege kutaura muzita raJesu, uye vakavaregedza.
They were persuaded now by him, and having called in the apostles having beaten they commanded [them] not to speak in the name of Jesus and released (them. *k*)
41 Vapostori vakabva paDare Guru, vachifara nokuda kwokuti vakanga vanzi vakafanira kutambudzwa nokunyadziswa nokuda kweZita iri.
They indeed therefore were departing rejoicing from [the] presence of the Council, that they had been counted worthy for the Name (*o*) (of him *K(O)*) to suffer dishonor;
42 Zuva rimwe nerimwe havana kumborega kudzidzisa nokuparidza shoko rakanaka vari mutemberi nomudzimba nedzimba kuti Jesu ndiye Kristu.
Every then day in the temple and in house not they were ceasing teaching and evangelising [that] the Christ [is] Jesus.
