< Acts 5 >

1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
Konsa tou, yon nonm yo te rele Ananyas ak Safira madanm li vann yon tè yo te genyen.
2 and kept back part of the price, his wife also being aware of it, then brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
Men, dakò ak madanm li, Ananyas kenbe enpe nan lajan an pou li, epi li al renmèt apòt yo rès la.
3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the price of the land?
Lè sa a, Pyè di li: Ananyas, ki jan ou fè kite Satan antre nan kè ou pou l' fè ou bay Sentespri manti, pou l' fè ou kenbe enpe nan lajan tè a pou ou?
4 While you kept it, didn’t it remain your own? After it was sold, wasn’t it in your power? How is it that you have conceived this thing in your heart? You haven’t lied to men, but to God.”
Anvan ou te vann tè a, se pa pou ou li te ye? Apre ou te fin vann li, tout lajan an te pou ou, pa vre? Ki jan ou fè mete nan tèt ou pou fè yon bagay konsa? Se pa moun ou bay manti non. Se Bondye ou twonpe.
5 Ananias, hearing these words, fell down and died. Great fear came on all who heard these things.
Lè Ananyas tande pawòl sa yo, li tonbe, li mouri frèt. Tout moun ki tande nouvèl la te pè anpil.
6 The young men arose and wrapped him up, and they carried him out and buried him.
Men, kèk jenn gason vini, yo vlope kò a; yo pran l', y' al antere li.
7 About three hours later, his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
Twazèdetan apre, madanm Ananyas, ki pa t' konn sak te rive, vin antre.
8 Peter answered her, “Tell me whether you sold the land for so much.” She said, “Yes, for so much.”
Pyè mande li: Di mwen, èske se pou pri sa a nou te vann jaden an? Li reponn: Wi, se pou pri sa a.
9 But Peter asked her, “How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.”
Lè sa a, Pyè di li: Poukisa, ou menm ak mari ou, nou fè konbinezon sa a ansanm pou n' chache pran Lespri Bondye a nan pèlen? Koute: Moun ki antere mari ou la, men yo la nan papòt la. Yo pral pote ou ale, ou menm tou.
10 She fell down immediately at his feet and died. The young men came in and found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her by her husband.
Menm lè a, li tonbe atè nan pye Pyè, li mouri frèt. Jenn gason yo antre, yo jwenn li mouri. Yo pran l', y' al antere bò kot mari li.
11 Great fear came on the whole assembly, and on all who heard these things.
Tout legliz la ak tout moun ki te tande bagay sa yo te pè anpil.
12 By the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. They were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.
Apòt yo t'ap fè anpil mirak ak anpil bèl bagay nan mitan pèp la. Yo tout te reyini ansanm anba Galeri Salomon an.
13 None of the rest dared to join them; however, the people honored them.
Tout moun te pè mele ak yo, apa moun ki te kwè yo. Men, pèp la t'ap pale byen sou yo.
14 More believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women.
Anpil moun, fanm kou gason, t'ap vin jwenn disip yo paske yo te kwè nan Seyè a.
15 They even carried out the sick into the streets and laid them on cots and mattresses, so that as Peter came by, at least his shadow might overshadow some of them.
Lè sa a, yo tanmen pote moun malad yo deyò nan lari. Yo mete yo sou kabann, sou nat, yon jan pou lè Pyè vin ap pase menm lonbray li te ka kouvri kèk nan yo.
16 The multitude also came together from the cities around Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits; and they were all healed.
Moun te soti nan tout ti bouk ki nan vwazinaj Jerizalèm. Yo pote moun malad ak moun move lespri t'ap toumante. Yo tout te geri.
17 But the high priest rose up, and all those who were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with jealousy
Lè sa a, yon sèl jalouzi pran granprèt la ansanm ak sadiseyen yo ki te patizan li.
18 and laid hands on the apostles, then put them in public custody.
Yo fè arete apòt yo, mete yo nan gran prizon.
19 But an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors by night, and brought them out and said,
Men, nan mitan lannwit, yon zanj Bondye louvri pòt prizon an, li fè apòt yo soti. Li di yo:
20 “Go stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.”
Ale kanpe nan mitan tanp lan, epi anonse pèp la tout bagay sou jan pou yo viv koulye a.
21 When they heard this, they entered into the temple about daybreak and taught. But the high priest and those who were with him came and called the council together, with all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
Apòt yo obeyi zanj lan: Nan granmaten, y' al nan tanp lan epi yo tanmen moutre pèp la anpil bagay. Granprèt la ansanm ak patizan l' yo sanble tout chèf fanmi nan pèp Izrayèl la, yo reyini Gran Konsèy la. Apre sa, yo voye chache apòt yo nan prizon an.
22 But the officers who came didn’t find them in the prison. They returned and reported,
Men, lè gad yo rive nan prizon an, yo pa jwenn yo. Yo tounen nan Gran Konsèy la, yo fè rapò yo. Yo di:
23 “We found the prison shut and locked, and the guards standing before the doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside!”
Nou jwenn prizon an byen fèmen, avèk gad yo nan pòs devan pòt prizon an. Men, lè nou louvri pòt yo, nou pa jwenn pesonn anndan an.
24 Now when the high priest, the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these words, they were very perplexed about them and what might become of this.
Lè kòmandan lagad tanp lan ak chèf prèt yo tande sa, yo t'ap mande ki jan apòt yo fè disparèt, kisa ki te rive.
25 One came and told them, “Behold, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people.”
Men, yon moun vin rive, li di yo: Mesye nou te mete nan prizon yo, men yo nan tanp lan, y'ap pale ak pèp la.
26 Then the captain went with the officers, and brought them without violence, for they were afraid that the people might stone them.
Lè sa a, kòmandan lagad la ale avèk gad li yo, li mennen apòt yo tounen. Men, yo pa t' aji brital ak yo paske yo te pè pou pèp la pa t' touye yo ak kout wòch.
27 When they had brought them, they set them before the council. The high priest questioned them,
Lè yo mennen yo tounen, yo fè yo konparèt devan Gran Konsèy la. Epi granprèt la pran poze yo keksyon.
28 saying, “Didn’t we strictly command you not to teach in this name? Behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and intend to bring this man’s blood on us.”
Li di yo: Eske nou pa t' defann nou pale ak pèp la nan non nonm sa a? Gade sa n' fè. Nou gaye pawòl nou yo nan tout Jerizalèm. Nou vle rann nou reskonsab lanmò nonm lan.
29 But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.
Pyè ansanm ak lòt apòt yo reponn li: Se pou n' obeyi Bondye pase pou n' obeyi moun.
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you killed, hanging him on a tree.
Bondye zansèt nou yo te fè Jezi leve soti vivan nan lanmò, Jezi nou te fè touye lè n' te kloure l' sou kwa a.
31 God exalted him with his right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance to Israel, and remission of sins.
Bondye fè l' moute chita sou bò dwat li, li mete l' Chèf sou nou, li fè l' delivre nou. Li fè sa pou bay pèp Izrayèl la yon bèl chans pou l' tounen vin jwenn Bondye, pou l' resevwa padon pou peche l' yo.
32 We are his witnesses of these things; and so also is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.”
Nou se temwen tout bagay sa yo, nou menm ansanm ak Sentespri Bondye bay tout moun ki obeyi l' yo.
33 But they, when they heard this, were cut to the heart, and were determined to kill them.
Lè yo tande pawòl sa yo, manm Gran Konsèy yo fin pran chenn. Tèlman yo te ankòlè, yo te vle fè touye apòt yo.
34 But one stood up in the council, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, honored by all the people, and commanded to put the apostles out for a little while.
Men, te gen yon farizyen nan mitan yo ki te rele Gamalyèl. Se te yon dirèktè lalwa tout pèp la te respekte anpil. Li kanpe nan mitan Konsèy la, li mande pou fè apòt yo soti yon ti moman.
35 He said to them, “You men of Israel, be careful concerning these men, what you are about to do.
Apre sa, li di: Nou menm moun pèp Izrayèl, pran tèt nou anvan nou fè sa nou pral fè ak mesye yo.
36 For before these days Theudas rose up, making himself out to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves. He was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed and came to nothing.
Sa pa gen lontan, yon nonm yo rele Tedas te parèt. Li te pran pòz grannèg li. Li jwenn katsan (400) moun konsa ki te mete tèt ansanm avè li. Yo touye l', epi tout moun ki t'ap swiv li yo gaye. Se konsa mouvman an tonbe.
37 After this man, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the enrollment, and drew away some people after him. He also perished, and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered abroad.
Apre sa, lè resansman an, te gen Jida, yon nonm Galile, ki te parèt. Li te trennen yon bann moun dèyè li. Li menm tou, yo touye li. Epi tout moun ki t'ap swiv li yo gaye tou.
38 Now I tell you, withdraw from these men and leave them alone. For if this counsel or this work is of men, it will be overthrown.
Pou koulye a, men sa m'ap di nou: Pa okipe mesye sa yo ankò. Kite y ale. Si plan travay yo a soti nan lèzòm, li gen pou l' disparèt.
39 But if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow it, and you would be found even to be fighting against God!”
Men, si sa soti nan Bondye, nou p'ap kapab kraze li. Atansyon pou se pa avèk Bondye nou gen zafè! Manm Konsèy yo tonbe dakò avèk Gamalyèl.
40 They agreed with him. Summoning the apostles, they beat them and commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
Yo rele apòt yo ankò. Yo fè yo bat yo byen bat, yo pase yo lòd pou yo pa pale nan non Jezi ankò. Apre sa yo lage yo.
41 They therefore departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for Jesus’ name.
Apòt yo kite Gran Konsèy la. Yo te kontan dèske Bondye te wè yo merite pou moun te avili yo konsa poutèt non Jezi.
42 Every day, in the temple and at home, they never stopped teaching and preaching Jesus, the Christ.
Toulejou, yo te nan tanp lan, yo t'ap mache kay an kay, yo pa t' janm sispann moutre moun yo anpil bagay. Yo t'ap anonse Bon Nouvèl ki pale sou Jezikri a.
