Acts 4
1 And as they are speaking to the people, there came to them the priests, and the magistrate of the temple, and the Sadducees—
Nihnik mah kaminawk khaeah lokthuih hoi li naah, qaimanawk, tempul thungah toksah kaminawk hoi Sadusinawk nihcae khaeah angzoh o,
2 being grieved because of their teaching the people, and preaching in Jesus the resurrection out of the dead—
patoeh ih kami hnik mah kaminawk to patuk hoi moe, duekhaih thung hoi kangthawk let Jesu kawng to thuih hoi pongah, nihcae loe palungphui o.
3 and they laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was evening already;
Nihcae mah patoeh ih kami hnik to naeh o, niduem boeh pongah, nihnik to khawnbang karoek to thongim pakhrak o.
4 and many of those hearing the word believed, and the number of the men became, as it were, five thousand.
To tiah oh langlacadoeh, lok thaih pop parai kaminawk mah tanghaih to tawnh o; to naah tang kaminawk sang pangato phak o.
5 And it came to pass the next day, there were gathered together of them the rulers, and elders, and scribes, to Jerusalem,
Khawnbang phak naah loe, ukkungnawk, kacoehtanawk hoi ca tarik kaminawk,
6 and Annas the chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the family of the chief priest,
kalen koek qaima Anna, Kaiapha, Johan, Alexander hoi kalen koek qaima ih imthung takoh boih Jerusalem ah amkhueng o.
7 and having set them in the midst, they were inquiring, “In what power, or in what name did you do this?”
Nihnik to kaminawk salakah suek o moe, Naa ih sakthaihaih hoiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe mi ih ahmin hoiah maw hae hmuen hae na sak hoi? tiah lok a dueng o.
8 Then Peter, having been filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: “Rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
Piter loe Kacai Muithla hoiah koi moe, nihcae khaeah, Nangcae kami ukkungnawk hoi Israel kacoehtanawk,
9 if we are examined today concerning the good deed to the ailing man, by whom he has been saved,
vai hniah tha kahnaem kami maeto nuiah kahoih hmuen sak pongah kawbangah maw ngan a tui, tiah lokdueng han ih nang kawk o nahaeloe;
10 be it known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised out of the dead, in Him has this one stood by before you whole.
nangcae hoi Israel kaminawk boih mah, hae hmuen hae panoek o ah, thinglam pongah na takhing o boeh, toe Sithaw mah duekhaih thung hoiah pathawk let ih, Nazareth Jesu Kri rang hoiah ni nangcae hma ah angdoe hae kami hae ngan a tui.
11 This is the stone that was set at nothing by you—the builders, that became head of a corner;
Hae loe nangcae imsah kaminawk mah na pahnawt o sut ih thlung ah oh, to thlung loe kahoih koek im takii ih thlung ah angcoeng boeh.
12 and there is not salvation in any other, for there is no other name under Heaven that has been given among men, in which it is required of us to be saved.”
Kalah pahlonghaih roe om ai: van tlim ah kaom kaminawk thungah aicae pahlong thaih ahmin kalah tidoeh om ai, tiah a naa.
13 And beholding the openness of Peter and John, and having perceived that they are illiterate men and commoners, they were wondering—they were also taking knowledge of them that they had been with Jesus—
Piter hoi Johan loe ca amtuk ai kami, kami rumram ni, tito nihcae mah panoek o moe, nihnik ih misahoihaih to hnuk o naah, nihcae loe dawnrai o; toe nihcae mah hae kami hnik loe Jesu hoi nawnto kaom kami ni, tito panoek o.
14 and seeing the man standing with them who has been healed, they had nothing to say against [it],
Nihnik hoi nawnto angdoe ngantui kami to doeh a hnuk o, toe anih hanah loe kawbangah doeh naa o ai.
15 and having commanded them to go away out of the Sanhedrin, they took counsel with one another,
Toe nihnik to lokcaekhaih ahmuen hoiah tacawtsak pacoengah, angmacae hoi angmacae lok angdueng o,
16 saying, “What will we do to these men? Because that, indeed, a notable sign has been done through them [is] apparent to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, and we are not able to deny [it];
hae kami hnik hae kawbangmaw a sak o han? Nihnik mah sak ih dawnrai hmuen loe Jerusalem ah kaom kaminawk boih mah hnuk o boeh, to pongah aicae mah aek thai mak ai boeh.
17 but that it may spread no further toward the people, let us strictly threaten them to no longer speak in this Name to any man.”
Kaminawk salakah amthang let han ai hoi hae kami ih ahmin hoiah mi khaeah doeh lok a thuih hoi han ai ah, nihnik to pazih si, tiah a thuih o.
18 And having called them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor to teach, in the Name of Jesus,
To pongah nihnik to a kawk o moe, Jesu ih ahmin hoiah patuk moe, lok roe thuih han ai ah lokthuih pae o.
19 and Peter and John answering to them said, “Whether it is righteous before God to listen to you rather than to God, judge;
Piter hoi Johan mah nihcae khaeah, Sithaw mikhnuk ah Sithaw ih lok tahngaih pongah nangcae ih lok tahngaih han hoih kue maw, hoih kue ai tito nangmacae mah lok takroek oh.
20 for we cannot but speak what we saw and heard.”
Kaihnik loe ka hnuk hoi moe, ka thaih hoi ih hmuen to thui ai ah kaom hoi thai ai, tiah a naa hoi.
21 And they having further threatened [them], let them go, finding no way how they may punish them, because of the people, because all were glorifying God for that which has been done,
To tiah a sak hoi ih hmuen pongah, kaminawk boih mah Sithaw ih ahmin to pakoeh o pongah, nihnik to danpaek o thai ai, to pongah nihcae mah nihnik to pazih o pacoengah, prawt o let,
22 for above forty years of age was the man on whom had been done this sign of the healing.
dawnrai koi kaom ah ngantuisak ih kami loe saning quipalito ranuih ah oh boeh.
23 And being let go, they went to their own friends, and declared whatever the chief priests and the elders said to them,
Nihnik loih hoi pacoengah angmacae ampuinawk khaeah caeh hoi moe, kalen koek qaima hoi kacoehtanawk mah nihnik khaeah thuih ih loknawk to thuih pae hoi boih.
24 and they having heard, lifted up the voice to God with one accord and said, “LORD, You [are] God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all that [are] in them,
To loknawk to a thaih o naah, poek maeto hoiah Sithaw khaeah, Angraeng, nang loe van, long, tuipui hoi a thungah kaom hmuennawk boih sahkung Sithaw ah na oh, tiah hangh o:
25 who, through the mouth of Your servant David, said, Why did nations rage, and peoples meditate vain things?
na tamna David ih pakha hoiah, Tipongah maw Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk loe palungphui o moe, kaminawk mah avang ai hmuennawk to poek o?
26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the LORD and against His Christ;
Long siangpahrangnawk loe angdoet o, ukkungnawk loe nawnto amkhueng o moe, Angraeng hoi Anih ih Kri to misa ah suek o, tiah lok na thuih.
27 for gathered together of a truth against Your holy child Jesus, whom You anointed, were both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with nations and peoples of Israel,
Tangtang ni, Herod, Pilat, Gentelnawk hoi Israelnawk mah situi na bawh ih, ciimcai nawkta Jesu to koeh o ai,
28 to do whatever Your hand and Your counsel determined before to come to pass.
canghnii hoi lok na takroek tangcae baktih toengah, na koehhaih to a sak o hanah, nihcae loe nawnto amkhueng o.
29 And now, LORD, look on their threatenings, and grant to Your servants to speak Your word with all freedom,
Angraeng, vaihi nihcae mah pazih ih loknawk to poek ah loe, misahoihaih boih hoiah na lok to a thuih o thai hanah, na tamnanawk to abom ah,
30 in the stretching forth of Your hand, for healing, and signs, and wonders, to come to pass through the Name of Your holy child Jesus.”
nangmah ih kaciim nawkta Jesu ih ahmin hoiah, ngantuihaih, angmathaih hoi dawnrai hmuennawk sak hanah, na ban to payueng ah, tiah lawk a thuih o.
31 And they having prayed, the place was shaken in which they were gathered together, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and were speaking the word of God with freedom,
Nihcae mah lawkthuih o naah, nihcae nawnto amkhuenghaih ahmuen to anghuen; nihcae loe Kacai Muithla hoiah koi o boih moe, Sithaw lok to misahoihaih hoiah a thuih o.
32 and of the multitude of those who believed, the heart and the soul were one, and not one was saying that anything of the things he had was his own, but all things were in common to them.
Tanghaih tawn paroeai kaminawk loe, poekhaih palung maeto ah amhong o: mi mah doeh a tawnh ih hmuen to angmah ih hmuen ah poek o ai; nihcae loe hmuen to nawnto patoh angbomh o boih.
33 And with great power the apostles were giving the testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, great grace was also on them all,
Patoeh ih kaminawk mah kalen thacakhaih hoiah Angraeng Jesu angthawk lethaih hnukung ah ohhaih kawng to taphong o, nihcae nui boih ah kalen parai tahmenhaih to oh.
34 for there was not anyone among them who lacked, for as many as were possessors of fields, or houses, selling [them], were bringing the prices of the thing sold,
Nihcae thungah kavawt kami mi doeh om ai: long hoi im tawn kaminawk loe long hoi im to zawh o moe, a zawh o ih hmuenmae tho to a sin o,
35 and were laying them at the feet of the apostles, and distribution was being made to each according as anyone had need.
patoeh kaminawk ih khokkung ah a suek o moe, angaih kaminawk hanah pazet o.
36 And Joses, who was surnamed by the apostles Barnabas—which is, having been interpreted, Son of Comfort—a Levite, of Cyprus by birth,
Cyprus prae ih Levi kami Jose, patoeh ih kaminawk mah loe anih to Barnaba (pathloep ah kaom capa, tiah thuih koehhaih ih ni) tiah kawk o, anih mah,
37 a field being his, having sold [it], brought the money and laid [it] at the feet of the apostles.
a tawnh ih long to zawh moe, tangka to patoeh ih kaminawk khokkung ah sinh.
