Caeltueih 4
1 Pilnam ham a thui uh vaengah khosoih rhoek, bawkim kah imtawt boei neh Sadducee rhoek loh amih te a paan uh.
And as they spake unto the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,
2 Pilnam a thuituen tih duek lamloh thohkoepnah te Jesuh rhangneh a doek dongah a yakdam uh.
being sore troubled because they taught the people, and proclaimed in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 Te dongah amih rhoi te kut a hlah thil uh tih a vuen duela thongim ah a khueh uh. Te vaengah hlaemhmah la om coeng.
And they laid hands on them, and put them in ward unto the morrow: for it was now eventide.
4 Tedae ol aka hnatun rhoek a yet ngai long tah a tangnah uh dongah hlang he hlangmi la thawng nga tluk lo uh.
But many of them that heard the word believed; and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.
5 A vuen a pha vaengah a boei rhoek, patong rhoek neh cadaek rhoek te Jerusalem ah tingtun uh.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers and elders and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem;
6 Te vaengah khosoihham Annas neh Kaiaphas, Johan, Alexander neh namtom khuikah khosoihpuei khaw boeih om uh.
and Annas the high priest [was there], and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest.
7 Amih rhoi te a laklung ah a pai sak uh tih, “Mebang thaomnah, u ming nen lae he he na saii rhoi, “tila a cae uh.
And when they had set them in the midst, they inquired, By what power, or in what name, have ye done this?
8 Peter tah mueihla cim neh a bae dongah amih te, “Pilnam kah boei rhoek neh patong rhoek,
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders,
9 Tattloel hlang pakhat sokah bibi then kongah tihnin ah boelh la ka om rhoi atah, ba nen lae anih a hoeih.
if we this day are examined concerning a good deed done to an impotent man, by what means this man is made whole;
10 Nazareth Jesuh Khrih ming nen ni tila nangmih boeih neh Israel pilnam boeih loh hmat la om saeh. Anih te na tai uh dae a Pathen loh duek khui lamkah a thoh coeng. Anih rhangnen ni he hlangtlo loh nangmih hmaiah sading la a pai.
be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, [even] in him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11 Amah tah nangmih imsa rhoek loh a hnaelcoe lungto la om dae imkil kah tlungyun la poeh coeng.
He is the stone which was set at nought of you the builders, which was made the head of the corner.
12 Te dongah khangnah long he a tloe mebang dongah khaw a om moenih. Mamih aka khang ham a kuek tih vaan hmuikah hlang lakliah a paek he ming tloe a om moenih,” a ti nah.
And in none other is there salvation: for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, wherein we must be saved.
13 Te vaengah Peter neh Johan kah a sayalh te a hmuh uh tih caa aka ming mueh hlang neh hlangthawt ni tite a hmuhming uh. Te phoeiah amih rhoi te Jesuh taengah om rhoi ti khaw a ming uh tih a ngai hmanguh.
Now when they beheld the boldness of Peter and John, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
14 Aka hoeih tih amih rhoi taengah aka pai hlang te khaw a hmuh uh dongah oelh ham khaw om voel pawh.
And seeing the man that was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 Te dongah amih rhoi te khoboei im kah poengla caeh ham ol a paek uh.
But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 Khat neh khat a nuemnai uh tih, “Hekah hlang rhoi he metlam n'saii uh eh. Amih rhoi pum dongah miknoek loh a poekhloep la tueng coeng tih Jerusalem kah khosa rhoek boeih ham khaw rhep a mingpha coeng dongah hnawt ham a coeng moenih.
saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been wrought through them, is manifest to all that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.
17 Tedae pilnam taengla yilh a caeh voel pawt ham, a ming neh hlang pakhat taengah khaw thui pawt ham mah amih he hihham uh sih,” a ti uh.
But that it spread no further among the people, let us threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
18 Te dongah amih rhoi te a khue uh tih Jesuh ming dongah thuituen pawt ham neh thui loengloeng pawt ham a uen uh.
And they called them, and charged them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 Tedae amih te Peter neh Johan loh a doo tih, “Pathen ol lakah nangmih ol hnatun lat ham Pathen hmaiah a thuem atah namamih loh laitloek uh nawn.
But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken unto you rather than unto God, judge ye:
20 Ka hmuh neh ka yaak uh te ka thui pawt koinih a coeng moenih,” a ti nah.
for we cannot but speak the things which we saw and heard.
21 Amih te metla a cawh ham khaw a hmuh uh pawt dongah a hihham uh tih a tueih uh. Tekah aka thoeng hno kongah pilnam pum loh Pathen te a thangpom uh.
And they, when they had further threatened them, let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people; for all men glorified God for that which was done.
22 Hoeihnah miknoek loh a thoeng thil hlang te tah a kum sawmli hlai a lo coeng dongah ni.
For the man was more than forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was wrought.
23 A loeih phoeiah amah rhoek taengla pawk rhoi tih khosoihham rhoek neh patong rhoek loh a thui boeih te amih taengah puen rhoi.
And being let go, they came to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said unto them.
24 A yaak uh vaengah Pathen taengah ol huek a huel uh tih, “Boeikung, namah loh vaan neh diklai, tuitunli neh a khuikah boeih na saii.
And they, when they heard it, lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, O Lord, thou that didst make the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that in them is:
25 A pa rhoek kah Pathen loh na tueihyoeih David kah a ka dongah Mueihla Cim neh, 'Balae tih namtom rhoek loh a sundaep uh tih pilnam loh a tlongtlaih la a mangtuk uh.
who by the Holy Spirit, [by] the mouth of our father David thy servant, didst say, Why did the Gentiles rage, And the peoples imagine vain things?
26 Diklai manghai rhoek neh boei rhoek tah amamih te tingtun uh tih BOEIPA neh a Khrih te a pai thil uh,” a ti.
The kings of the earth set themselves in array, And the rulers were gathered together, Against the Lord, and against his Anointed:
27 Te dongah ni na koelh tangtae Jesuh, na taengom cim te Herod neh Pontius Pilat, namtom neh Israel pilnam loh, oltak la khopuei khuiah a tingtun thil uh.
for of a truth in this city against thy holy Servant Jesus, whom thou didst anoint, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel, were gathered together,
28 Na kut loh a saii tih aka thoeng ham koi boeih te na mangtaengnah loh a nuen coeng.
to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel foreordained to come to pass.
29 Te dongah aw Boeipa, amih te hihhamnah he so lamtah na ol aka thui ham na sal rhoek te sayalh la boeih khueh laeh.
And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants to speak thy word with all boldness,
30 Hoeihnah ham na kut na yueng li vaengah na tueihyoeih cim Jesuh ming dongah miknoek neh khobae rhambae khaw thoeng coeng,” a ti uh.
while thou stretchest forth thy hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of thy holy Servant Jesus.
31 A thangthui uh dongah tun a om nah hmuen khaw hinghoek uh tih Cim Mueihla neh boeih baetawt uh. Te dongah sayalh la Pathen kah ol khaw a thui uh.
And when they had prayed, the place was shaken wherein they were gathered together; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
32 Te dongah aka tangnah rhoek khuikah rhaengpuei tah thinko hinglu pakhat la a khueh uh. A khuehtawn te amah bueng ham ni aka ti u pakhat khaw om pawh. Tedae a cungkuem te amih ham tun om coeng.
And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and soul: and not one [of them] said that aught of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
33 Boeipa Jesuh thohkoepnah te caeltueih rhoek loh a laipai neh thaomnah a len la a thuung uh vaengah amih boeih soah khaw lungvatnah muep om.
And with great power gave the apostles their witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
34 Im kung lo kung la aka om boeih loh a im a lo a yoih uh.
For neither was there among them any that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
35 a yoih phu te caeltueih rhoek kah kho kung la a khuen uh tih a tloeng uh. Te phoeiah hlang boeih loh a ngoe tarhing ah rhip a tael uh dongah amih khuikah aka om boeih loh daeng voel pawh.
and laid them at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made unto each, according as any one had need.
36 Te vaengah caeltueih rhoek loh Barnabas Te tah thaphohnah capa ni a thuingaih la a khue, Kuporos kah Levi hoel Joseph loh,
And Joseph, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas (which is, being interpreted, Son of exhortation), a Levite, a man of Cyprus by race,
37 a lo khueh te a yoih vaengah tangka a khuen tih caeltueih rhoek kah kho kung ah a tloeng.
having a field, sold it, and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
