Atos 4
1 E, estando elles fallando ao povo, sobrevieram os sacerdotes, e o capitão do templo, e os sadduceos,
As they spoke to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came to them,
2 Doendo-se muito de que ensinassem o povo, e annunciassem em Jesus a resurreição dos mortos.
being upset because they taught the people and proclaimed in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 E lançaram mão d'elles, e os encerraram na prisão até ao dia seguinte, pois era já tarde.
They laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was now evening.
4 Muitos, porém, dos que ouviram a palavra crêram, e chegou o numero d'esses homens a quasi cinco mil.
But many of those who heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.
5 E aconteceu, no dia seguinte, reunirem-se em Jerusalem os seus principaes, e anciãos e escribas,
In the morning, their rulers, elders, and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem.
6 E Annás, o summo sacerdote, e Caiphás, e João, e Alexandre, e todos quantos havia da linhagem do summo sacerdote.
Annas the high priest was there, with Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and as many as were relatives of the high priest.
7 E, pondo-os no meio, perguntaram: Com que poder fizestes isto, ou em nome de quem?
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 Então Pedro, cheio do Espirito Sancto, lhes disse: Principaes do povo, e vós, anciãos d'Israel.
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “You rulers of the people and elders of Israel,
9 Visto que hoje somos interrogados ácerca do beneficio feito a um homem enfermo, do modo como foi curado,
if we are examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed,
10 Seja conhecido a vós todos, e a todo o povo d'Israel, que em nome de Jesus Christo, o nazareno, aquelle a quem vós crucificastes e a quem Deus resuscitou dos mortos, em nome d'esse é que este está são diante de vós.
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 Este é a pedra que foi rejeitada por vós, os edificadores, a qual foi posta por cabeça d'esquina.
He is ‘the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.’
12 E em nenhum outro ha salvação, porque tambem debaixo do céu nenhum outro nome ha, dado entre os homens, em que devamos ser salvos.
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 Então elles, vendo a ousadia de Pedro e João, e informados de que eram homens sem lettras e indoutos, se maravilharam; e conheciam que elles haviam estado com Jesus.
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 Mas, vendo estar com elles o homem que fôra curado, nada tinham que dizer em contrario.
Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 E, mandando-os sair fóra do conselho, conferenciaram entre si,
But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 Dizendo: Que havemos de fazer a estes homens? porque a todos os que habitam em Jerusalem é manifesto que por elles foi feito um signal notorio, e não o podemos negar;
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 Mas, para que não se divulgue mais entre o povo, ameacemol-os para que não fallem mais n'esse nome a homem algum.
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 E, chamando-os, disseram-lhes que absolutamente não fallassem, nem ensinassem, no nome de Jesus.
They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 Respondendo, porém, Pedro e João, lhes disseram: Julgae vós se é justo, diante de Deus, ouvir-vos antes a vós do que a Deus
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 Porque não podemos deixar de fallar do que temos visto e ouvido.
for we cannot help telling the things which we saw and heard.”
21 Mas elles ainda os ameaçaram mais, e, não achando motivo para os castigar, deixaram-n'os ir, por causa do povo; porque todos glorificavam a Deus ácerca do que acontecera:
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 Pois tinha mais de quarenta annos o homem em quem se operara aquelle milagre de saude.
For the man on whom this miracle of healing was performed was more than forty years old.
23 E, soltos elles, foram para os seus, e contaram tudo o que lhes disseram os principaes dos sacerdotes e os anciãos.
Being let go, they came to their own company and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.
24 E, ouvindo elles isto, unanimes levantaram a voz a Deus, e disseram: Senhor, tu és o Deus que fizeste o céu, e a terra, e o mar, e todas as coisas que n'elles ha;
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 Que disseste pela bocca de David, teu servo: Porque bramaram as gentes, e os povos pensaram coisas vãs?
who by the mouth of your servant David, said, ‘Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
26 Levantaram-se os reis da terra, e os principes se ajuntaram á uma, contra o Senhor e contra o seu Ungido.
The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers plot together, against the Lord, and against his Christ.’
27 Porque verdadeiramente contra o teu sancto Filho Jesus, que tu ungiste, se ajuntaram, não só Herodes, mas Poncio Pilatos, com os gentios e os povos d'Israel;
“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 Para fazerem tudo o que a tua mão e o teu conselho tinham anteriormente determinado que se havia de fazer.
to do whatever your hand and your counsel foreordained to happen.
29 Agora pois, ó Senhor, põe os olhos nas suas ameaças, e concede aos teus servos que fallem com toda a ousadia a tua palavra;
Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,
30 Estendendo a tua mão para curar, e para que se façam signaes e prodigios pelo nome do teu sancto Filho Jesus.
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 E, tendo orado, moveu-se o logar em que estavam reunidos; e todos foram cheios do Espirito Sancto, e fallavam com ousadia a palavra de Deus.
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 E era um o coração e a alma da multidão dos que criam, e ninguem dizia que coisa alguma do que possuia era sua propria, mas todas as coisas lhes eram communs.
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 E os apostolos davam, com grande poder, testemunho da resurreição do Senhor Jesus, e em todos elles havia abundante graça.
With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all.
34 Não havia pois entre elles necessitado algum; porque todos os que possuiam herdades ou casas, vendendo-as, traziam o preço do vendido, e o depositavam aos pés dos apostolos.
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,
35 E repartia-se por cada um, segundo a necessidade que cada um tinha.
and laid them at the apostles’ feet; and distribution was made to each, according as anyone had need.
36 Então José, cognominado pelos apostolos Barnabé (que, traduzido, é Filho de consolação), levita, natural de Chypre,
Joses, who by the apostles was also called Barnabas (which is, being interpreted, Son of Encouragement), a Levite, a man of Cyprus by race,
37 Possuindo uma herdade, vendeu-a, e trouxe o preço, e o apresentou aos pés dos apostolos.
having a field, sold it and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
