Cei 4
1 Piter ingkaw Johan ing thlangkhqi venawh awi anik kqawn hui awh, khawsoeihkhqi, bawkim temkungkhqi ingkaw Sadusikhqi ce law uhy.
As they spoke to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came to them,
2 Thihnaak awhkawng ak tho tlaih Jesu ak caming ceityih qawi ing thlang cawngpyi nih nawh awi anik khypyi ce am ngaih uhy.
being upset because they taught the people and proclaimed in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 Cedawngawh Piter ingkaw Johan ce tu unawh, khaw a my hawh adawngawh a khawngawi mymcang dy thawngim khuina thla qawi uhy.
They laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was now evening.
4 Cehlai awi amak ngai thlang khawzah ak khuiawh ak kuum ngai ing cangna unawh; thlang mi na thongnga tluk pung uhy.
But many of those who heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.
5 A khawngawi awh ukkungkhqi, a hqamcakhqi ingkaw anaa awi qeekungkhqi ce Jerusalem awh cun uhy.
In the morning, their rulers, elders, and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem.
6 Khawsoih boei khyt Ana, Kaiapha, Johan, Alexander ingkaw khawsoeih boei khyt a cakaw paqeng thlak changkhqi awm cawh awm lawt uhy.
Annas the high priest was there, with Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and as many as were relatives of the high priest.
7 Piter ingkaw Johan ce khy sak unawh doet uhy: “Hana kaw saithainaak, a u ang ming ing nu ve a themkhqi ve na ni sai?” tina uhy.
When they had stood Peter and John in the middle of them, they inquired, “By what power, or in what name, have you done this?”
8 Cawh Piter taw Ciim Myihla ing be nawh: “Ukkungkhqi ingkaw a hqamcakhqi!
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “You rulers of the people and elders of Israel,
9 Tuhngawi awh khawkkhem a venawh qeennaak sainaak awh ikawmyihna a qoeinaak tice kqawn aham nami nik khy awhtaw,
if we are examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed,
10 nangmih ingkaw Israel thlangkhqi boeih ing sim lah uh: Nangmih ing thinglam awh tai hlai uhyk ti, Khawsa ing thihnaak awhkawng am thawh tlaih, Nazareth Jesu Khrih ang ming ing, nangmih a hai awhkaw ak dyi ve qoei hy.
may it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, this man stands here before you whole in him.
11 Anih taw, nangmih im ak sakungkhqi ing nami qoeng lung ce, a kil awhkaw lung khoeng a phu tlo soeihna coeng hy,” a ti ceni.
He is ‘the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.’
12 “Hulnaak ve hana awm am awm qoe qoe hy, khawnghi ak kaiawh nangmih hul thainaak aham thlanghqing anglakawh ming qoe qoe am awm hy,” tina hy.
There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!”
13 Piter ingkaw Johan a qaal leeknaak ce ami huh awh, ca amanik sim, thlang mailai ni, tice ami sim awh amik kawpoekna kyi hy, cehlai cekqawi ce Jesu venawh anik awm ni, tice sim uhy.
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled. They recognized that they had been with Jesus.
14 Cehlai khawkkhem ak qoei thlang cawh ak dyi ce ami huh awh ikaw awi awm ap kqawn uhy.
Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 Cekqawi ce Sunhedrin ak khui awhkawng ami ceh sak coengawh, a mimah ce doet qu uhy.
But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 “Vekqawi ve ikawmyihna nu ni sai lah voei? Jerusalem khawk khuiawh ak awmkhqi boeih ing vawhkaw kawpoek kyi them ani sai ve sim hawh uhy, ningnih ingawm amni oelh thai hy.
saying, “What shall we do to these men? Because indeed a notable miracle has been done through them, as can be plainly seen by all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.
17 Cehlai ve ak awi a thang khawnghak hlanawh, ve ang ming ing awi ama nik kqawnnaak voel aham kham pe u sih,” ti uhy.
But so that this spreads no further among the people, let’s threaten them, that from now on they do not speak to anyone in this name.”
18 Cekcoengawh cekqawi ce khy tlaih unawh, Jesu ang ming ing awi kqawn nawh thlang ama cawngpyi voel aham kqawn pe uhy.
They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 Cehlai Piter ingkaw Johan ing, “Khawsak awi ngai anglakawh nangmih ak awi ngai ve nu Khawsa haiawh a thym bet kaw, nangmih ing poek lah uh.
But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, judge for yourselves,
20 Kainih ingtaw ka ni huh ingkaw ka ning zaakkhqi ve ak kqawn kaana am awm thai ti kawng nih nyng,” tina hy nih.
for we cannot help telling the things which we saw and heard.”
21 Cekkqawi ce kqih am hqin unawh hlah uhy. Ce akawnglam ak camawh thlang boeih ing Khawsa ce a mim kyihcah dawngawh, cekqawi ce ikawm a tina qawi uhy.
When they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people; for everyone glorified God for that which was done.
22 Cawhkaw khawkkhem ak qoei thlang ce kum phlikip hlai law hawh hy.
For the man on whom this miracle of healing was performed was more than forty years old.
23 Cekqawi ce ami hlah coengawh, Piter ingkaw Johan taw ani pyikhqi venna cet tlaih nih nawh Khawsoih boeikhqi ingkaw a hqamcakhqi ing amik kqawn peek ce zaak sak khqi hy nih.
Being let go, they came to their own company and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.
24 Cekkhqi ing a ming zaak awh awi pynoet na y unawh Khawsa venawh cykah uhy. “Sawsang soeih Bawipa, nang ing khawk khan, khawmdek, tuicunli ingkaw ak khuiawh ak awmkhqi boeih ve sai hyk ti.
When they heard it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord and said, “O Lord, you are God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them;
25 Namah a tyihzawih, kaimih a pa David am kha awhkawng, Ciim Myihla ing nang ingawh: ‘Ikawtih thlangphyn ahoei amik kaw so nawh, phu amak awmna khaw ami khan hy voei?
who by the mouth of your servant David, said, ‘Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
26 Khawmdek sangpahrang khqi ingkaw ukkungkhqi ing kutoet na Bawipa ingkaw Khrih ce kalh uhy,’ tinawh awi kqawn hyk ti.
The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers plot together, against the Lord, and against his Christ.’
27 Herod ingkaw Pontia Pilat ing Gentelkhqi, Israel thlangkhqi mi kutoet na nang a tyihzawih thlak ciim Jesu, nang ing situi na syp ce him aham ve khawk bau khuiawh hqum unawh teng uhy.
“For truly, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed,
28 Ak awm hly kawi nang a sai thainaak ingkaw ngaihnaak ak awm oepchoeh ce cekkhqi ing sai uhy.
to do whatever your hand and your counsel foreordained to happen.
29 Tuh Bawipa, a mingmih am kqih am hqinnaakkhqi ce poek nawhtaw, qaal leek doena nak awi ka mik kqawnnaak thai aham na tyihzawihkhqi ve bawng lah.
Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,
30 Namah a tyihzawih thlak ciim Jesu ing thlaktlo qoei sak thainaak, kawpoek kyi ik-oeihkhqi ingkaw hatnaakkhqi saithainaak aham na kut ce zyng law lah,” tinawh cykcah uhy.
while you stretch out your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of your holy Servant Jesus.”
31 Ceamyihna ami cykcah coengawh, a mingmih a awmnaak hun ce tlai lyk lyk hy. Ciim Myihla ing be unawh, Khawsa ak awi ce qaal leeknaak ing kqawn uhy.
When they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were gathered together. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
32 Ak cangnaak thlangkhqi ing kawlung pynoet na ta uhy. U ingawm a taak them ce amah doeng a koena am poek voel unawh ami taakkhqi boeih ce pynoet na qup uhy.
The multitude of those who believed were of one heart and soul. Not one of them claimed that anything of the things which he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common.
33 Thaawmnaak ak bau soeih ing ceityihkhqi ing Bawipa Jesu a thawhnaak akawng ce kqawn uhy, qeennaak khawzah ce a mingmih ak khan awh awm hy.
With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all.
34 A mingmih anglakawh ak voet ak hlauh thlang am awm hy. Im a lo ak takhqi ing zawi unawh, a phu tangka ce ami haw law coengawh,
For neither was there among them any who lacked, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold,

and laid them at the apostles’ feet; and distribution was made to each, according as anyone had need.
36 Kupra qam awhkaw Levi thlang Joseph, ceityihkhqi ing Barnaba tinawh amik khy (ak kqawn ngaihnaak taw Thapeek capa, tinaak) ing,
Joses, who by the apostles was also called Barnabas (which is, being interpreted, Son of Encouragement), a Levite, a man of Cyprus by race,

having a field, sold it and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
