Acts 4
1 While they were talking to the people, the priests, the captain of the Temple guard, and the Sadducees came up to them.
ⲁ̅ⲉⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲏⲏⲃ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲥⲧⲣⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲣ̅ⲡⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲇⲇⲟⲩⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ.
2 They were angry that they were teaching the people, telling them that through Jesus there is resurrection from the dead.
ⲃ̅ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲕϩ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲩϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲓ̈ϣ ϩⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ.
3 They arrested them and placed them under guard until the following day since it was already evening.

4 But many who had heard the message believed it, and the total number of believers grew to about five thousand.

5 The next day, the rulers, elders, and religious leaders met together in Jerusalem.

6 They included the high priest Annas, Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and others of the high priest's family.

7 They brought Peter and John before them and asked, “By what power or by whose authority have you done this?”
ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲧⲁϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲙⲏⲧⲉ ⲁⲩϫⲛⲟⲩⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲛ̅ⲁϣ ⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ. ⲏ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲁϣ ⲛ̅ⲣⲁⲛ.
8 Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, answered them. “Rulers of the people, and elders:

9 Are we being interrogated regarding a good deed done to a man who couldn't help himself, and how he came to be healed?

10 If so, all of you should know, and all the people of Israel, that it was in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the one you killed on a cross and whom God raised from the dead—it's because of him that this man stands before you completely healed.

11 ‘He is the stone you builders rejected, but he has been made the chief cornerstone.’

12 There is no salvation in anyone else; there is no other name under heaven given to humanity that can possibly save us.”
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ. ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲣⲁⲛ ϩⲁⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲉ ⲉⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲛⲛⲁϣⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅.
13 When they saw Peter and John's confidence, and realized they were uneducated, ordinary men, they were very surprised. They also recognized them as Jesus' companions.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲡⲁⲣⲣⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ. ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ϩⲉⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲇⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ̅ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈. ⲁⲩⲣ̅ϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲩϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲡⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅.
14 Since they could see the man who had been healed standing right there with them, they had nothing to say in response to what had happened.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁⲗϭⲟϥ ⲉϥⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ. ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩϭⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉϫⲱ.
15 So they instructed them to wait outside the council while they discussed the matter among themselves.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲣ̅ⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲩⲛϩⲉⲇⲣⲓⲟⲛ. ⲁⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ.
16 “What should we do with these men?” they asked. “We can't deny a significant miracle has happened through them. Everybody living here in Jerusalem knows about it.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲓ̈ⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ϩⲟⲧⲓ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲩⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ. ϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲏϩ ϩⲛ̅ⲑⲓⲗⲏ̅ⲙ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲛ̅ϣϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ⲉⲁⲣⲛⲁ.
17 But to prevent it spreading among the people any further, we should threaten them never to speak to anybody in this name again.”
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϩⲟⲩⲟ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ. ⲙⲁⲣⲛ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲅⲅⲓⲗⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ϭⲉ ϫⲓⲛⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲣⲁⲛ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ.
18 So they called them back in and ordered them never to speak or teach in the name of Jesus again.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲡⲁⲣⲁⲅⲅⲓⲗⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ϣⲁϫⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ϯⲥⲃⲱ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅·
19 But Peter and John responded, “Whether it's right in God's eyes to obey you rather than God—you decide.

20 We can't help talking about what we've seen and heard!”

21 After making more threats they let them go. They couldn't work out how to punish them because everyone was glorifying God for what had happened.

22 For the man who received this miracle of healing was more than forty years old.

23 After the disciples had been released, they went to the other believers and told them everything the chief priests and elders had said to them.

24 When they heard what had happened, they prayed to God together: “Lord, you made heaven and earth and sea, and everything that is in them.

25 You spoke by the Holy Spirit through David, our forefather and your servant, saying ‘Why did the people of the other nations become so angry? Why did they plot so foolishly against me?

27 Now this has really happened right here in this city! Both Herod and Pontius Pilate, together with the foreigners and the people of Israel, united together against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed as Messiah.

31 When they had finished praying, the building they were meeting in was shaken. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit, and spoke the word of God boldly.

32 All the believers thought and felt the same way. None of them claimed anything they had as their own, but shared everything with each other.

34 None of them needed anything because those who had lands or properties sold them.
