< Acts 5 >

1 But there was one of [the believers] whose name was Ananias, and whose wife’s name was Sapphira. He [also] sold some land.
Mutta eräs mies, nimeltä Ananias, ja hänen vaimonsa Safiira myivät maatilan,
2 He kept for himself some of the money [he had received for the land], and his wife knew that he had done that. Then he brought the rest of the money and presented it to the apostles [MTY].
ja mies kätki vaimonsa tieten osan hinnasta, ja osan hän toi ja pani apostolien jalkojen eteen.
3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, you [(sg)] let Satan completely control you [MTY] so that you [(sg) tried to] deceive the Holy Spirit [and us(exc)]. (That was [terrible!/Why did you do such a terrible thing]?) [RHQ] [You] have kept for yourself some of the money you [(sg)] received for [selling] the land, [pretending that you(sg) were giving us all of it].
Mutta Pietari sanoi: "Ananias, miksi on saatana täyttänyt sinun sydämesi, niin että koetit pettää Pyhää Henkeä ja kätkit osan maatilan hinnasta?
4 Before you [(sg)] sold that land, you truly owned [RHQ] it. And after you sold it, you could [RHQ] certainly still have used the money any way you wanted [to]. So why did you [(sg) ever] think [RHQ] about doing this [wicked] thing? You were not [merely trying to] deceive us! No, [you tried to deceive] God [himself!]!”
Eikö se myymätönnä ollut sinun omasi, ja eikö myynnin jälkeenkin sen hinta ollut sinun? Miksi päätit sydämessäsi tämän tehdä? Et sinä ole valhetellut ihmisille, vaan Jumalalle."
5 When Ananias heard that, [immediately] he fell down dead. So all [who were there] who heard [about Ananias’ death] became terrified [PRS].
Kun Ananias kuuli nämä sanat, kaatui hän maahan ja heitti henkensä. Ja suuri pelko valtasi kaikki, jotka sen kuulivat.
6 Some young men came in, wrapped his [body in a sheet], and carried it out [and] buried it.
Ja nuoret miehet nousivat ja korjasivat hänet ja kantoivat hänet pois ja hautasivat.
7 About three hours later, his wife came in, [but] she did not know what had happened.
Noin kolmen hetken kuluttua hänen vaimonsa tuli sisään eikä tiennyt, mitä oli tapahtunut.
8 [As] Peter [showed her the money] that [Ananias had brought], he asked her, “Tell me, is this the amount [of money you two received for] the land you sold?” She said, “Yes, that’s [what we(exc) received].”
Niin Pietari kysyi häneltä: "Sano minulle: siihenkö hintaan te myitte maatilan?" Hän vastasi: "Kyllä, juuri siihen hintaan".
9 So Peter said to her, “[You both did a terrible thing!] You two agreed [RHQ] to try to determine if you could do that without the Spirit of the Lord [God] revealing [to anyone that you two tried to deceive them!] Listen! [Do you(sg) hear the] footsteps [SYN] of the men who buried your husband? They are right outside this door, and they will carry your [corpse] out [to bury it, too]!”
Mutta Pietari sanoi hänelle: "Miksi olette yksissä neuvoin käyneet kiusaamaan Herran Henkeä? Katso, niiden jalat, jotka hautasivat sinun miehesi, ovat oven takana, ja he kantavat sinutkin pois."
10 Immediately Sapphira fell down dead at Peter’s feet. Then the young men came in. When they saw that she was dead, they carried her [body] out and buried it beside her husband’s [body].
Niin hän heti kaatui hänen jalkojensa eteen ja heitti henkensä; ja kun nuorukaiset tulivat sisään, tapasivat he hänet kuolleena, kantoivat pois ja hautasivat hänet hänen miehensä viereen.
11 So all the believers [in Jerusalem] became greatly frightened [PRS] [because of what God had done to Ananias and Sapphira. And] all [the others] who heard [people tell about] those things also [became greatly frightened].
Ja suuri pelko valtasi koko seurakunnan ja kaikki ne, jotka tämän kuulivat.
12 [God was enabling] the apostles to do many amazing miracles among the people. All the believers were meeting together regularly [in the temple courtyard] at [the place called] Solomon’s Porch.
Ja apostolien kätten kautta tapahtui kansassa monta tunnustekoa ja ihmettä; ja he olivat kaikki yksimielisesti koolla Salomon pylväskäytävässä.
13 All of the other people [who had not yet believed in Jesus] were afraid to associate with the believers, [because they knew that if they did anything evil, God would punish them, as well as revealing it to the believers]. However, those people continued to greatly respect the believers.
Eikä muista kukaan uskaltanut heihin liittyä, mutta kansa piti heitä suuressa kunniassa.
14 Many more men and women started believing in the Lord [Jesus], and they joined the [group of] believers.
Ja yhä enemmän karttui niitä, jotka uskoivat Herraan, sekä miehiä että naisia suuret joukot.
15 [The apostles were doing amazing miracles], so [people] were bringing those who were sick into the streets, and laying them on stretchers and mats, in order that [when] Peter came by [he would touch them, or] at least his shadow might fall upon some of them [and heal them].
Kannettiinpa sairaita kaduillekin ja pantiin vuoteille ja paareille, että Pietarin kulkiessa edes hänen varjonsa sattuisi johonkuhun heistä.
16 Crowds of people were also coming [to the apostles] from the towns near Jerusalem. They were bringing their sick [relatives/friends] and those who were being tormented/troubled by evil spirits {whom evil spirits were tormenting/troubling}, and [God] healed all of them.
Myöskin kaupungeista Jerusalemin ympäriltä tuli paljon kansaa, ja he toivat sairaita ja saastaisten henkien vaivaamia, ja ne kaikki tulivat parannetuiksi.
17 Then the high priest and all who were with him, who were members of the [local] Sadducee [sect in Jerusalem], became very jealous [of the apostles, because many people were accepting the apostles’ message].
Silloin nousi ylimmäinen pappi ja kaikki, jotka olivat hänen puolellansa, saddukeusten lahko, ja he tulivat kiihkoa täyteen
18 So they commanded the Temple guards to seize the apostles and put them in the public jail.
ja kävivät käsiksi apostoleihin ja panivat heidät yleiseen vankihuoneeseen.
19 [The guards did that], but during the night an angel from the Lord [God] opened the jail doors and brought the apostles outside! [The guards were not aware of what the angel had done].
Mutta yöllä avasi Herran enkeli vankilan ovet ja vei heidät ulos ja sanoi:
20 Then the angel said [to the apostles], “Go to the Temple [courtyard], stand there, and tell the people all about [how God can give them eternal] life!”
"Menkää ja astukaa esiin ja puhukaa pyhäkössä kansalle kaikki tämän elämän sanat".
21 So having heard this, about dawn they entered the Temple [courtyard] and began to teach the people again [about Jesus]. Acts 5:21b-24 Meanwhile, the high priest and those who were with him summoned the other Jewish Council members. Altogether they made up the entire Council of Israel. [After they all gathered together], they sent [guards] to the jail to bring in the apostles.
Sen kuultuansa he menivät päivän koittaessa pyhäkköön ja opettivat. Niin saapui ylimmäinen pappi ja ne, jotka olivat hänen puolellansa, ja he kutsuivat koolle neuvoston ja israelilaisten vanhinten kokouksen; ja he lähettivät noutamaan heitä vankilasta.
22 But when the guards arrived at the jail, they discovered that the apostles were not there. So they returned to the Council, and [one of] them reported,
Mutta kun oikeudenpalvelijat tulivat vankilaan, eivät he löytäneet heitä sieltä, vaan palasivat takaisin ja kertoivat,
23 “We [(exc)] saw that the jail [doors] were very securely locked, and the guards were standing at the doors. But when we opened [the doors and went in to get those men], none [of them was] inside [the jail]!”
sanoen: "Vankilan me kyllä huomasimme hyvin tarkasti suljetuksi ja vartijat seisomassa ovien edessä; mutta kun avasimme, emme sisältä ketään löytäneet".
24 When the captain of the temple guards and the chief priests heard that, they became greatly perplexed, [wondering] what might result from all this.
Kun pyhäkön vartioston päällikkö ja ylipapit kuulivat nämä sanat, eivät he tienneet, mitä heistä ajatella ja mitä tästä tulisi.
25 Then someone came [from the Temple courtyard] and [excitedly] reported to them, “Listen [to this! Right now] the men whom you put in jail are standing in the Temple [courtyard] and they are teaching the people [about Jesus]!”
Niin tuli joku ja kertoi heille: "Katso, ne miehet, jotka te panitte vankilaan, seisovat pyhäkössä ja opettavat kansaa".
26 So the captain [of the Temple guards] went [to the Temple courtyard] with the officers, and they brought the apostles [back to the Council room. But they] did not treat them roughly, because they were afraid that the people would [kill them by] throwing stones at them [if they hurt the apostles].
Silloin päällikkö meni oikeudenpalvelijain kanssa ja nouti heidät; ei kuitenkaan väkisin, sillä he pelkäsivät, että kansa heidät kivittäisi.
27 After [the captain and his officers] had brought [the apostles to the Council room], they commanded them to stand in front of the Council members, and the high priest questioned them.
Ja he toivat heidät ja asettivat neuvoston eteen. Ja ylimmäinen pappi kuulusteli heitä
28 He said to them [accusingly], “We [(exc)] strongly commanded you not to teach people about that man [MTY] [Jesus] But [you have disobeyed us, and] you have taught people all over Jerusalem [about him]! Furthermore, you are trying to make it seem that we [(exc)] are the ones who are guilty [MTY] for that man’s death!”
ja sanoi: "Me olemme kieltämällä kieltäneet teitä opettamasta tähän nimeen; ja katso, te olette täyttäneet Jerusalemin opetuksellanne ja tahdotte saattaa meidän päällemme tuon miehen veren".
29 But Peter, [speaking for himself] and the other apostles, replied, “We [(exc)] have to obey [what] God [commands us to do], not what [you] people [tell us to do]!
Mutta Pietari ja muut apostolit vastasivat ja sanoivat: "Enemmän tulee totella Jumalaa kuin ihmisiä.
30 God considers that you are the ones who killed Jesus by nailing him to a cross! But God, whom our ancestors [worshipped], (caused Jesus to become alive again after he died/raised Jesus from the dead).
Meidän isiemme Jumala on herättänyt Jeesuksen, jonka te ripustitte puuhun ja surmasitte.
31 God has greatly honored Jesus. [He has taken him up to heaven! He has authorized him] to be the one who will save us and to rule [over our lives! God did this] so that he might enable [us] Israelites [MTY] to turn away from [our] sinful behavior and [that he might] forgive [us for our sins].
Hänet on Jumala oikealla kädellänsä korottanut Päämieheksi ja Vapahtajaksi, antamaan Israelille parannusta ja syntien anteeksiantamusta.
32 We [(exc)] tell people about these things [that we know happened to Jesus], and the Holy Spirit, whom God has sent to [us] who obey him, is also confirming [that these things are true].”
Ja me olemme kaiken tämän todistajat, niin myös Pyhä Henki, jonka Jumala on antanut niille, jotka häntä tottelevat."
33 When the Council members heard those words, they became very angry [with the apostles], and they wanted to kill them.
Kun he sen kuulivat, viilsi se heidän sydäntänsä, ja he tahtoivat tappaa heidät.
34 But [there was a Council member] named Gamaliel. He was a Pharisee, and one who taught people the [Jewish] laws, and all the [Jewish] people respected him. He stood up in the Council and told [guards] to take the apostles out [of the room] for a short time.
Mutta neuvostossa nousi eräs fariseus, nimeltä Gamaliel, lainopettaja, jota koko kansa piti arvossa, ja hän käski viedä miehet vähäksi aikaa ulos.
35 [After the guards had taken the apostles out], he said to the other Council members, “Fellow Israelites, you need to think carefully about what you are about to do to these men, [and I will tell you why].
Sitten hän sanoi neuvostolle: "Israelin miehet, kavahtakaa, mitä aiotte tehdä näille miehille.
36 Some years ago [a man named] Theudas rebelled [against the Roman government]. He told people that he was an important person, and about 400 men joined [him. But he was killed] {[soldiers] killed him} and all those who had been accompanying him were scattered. [So they] were not able to do anything [that they had planned].
Sillä ennen näitä päiviä nousi Teudas, sanoen jokin olevansa, ja häneen liittyi noin neljäsataa miestä; hänet tapettiin, ja kaikki, jotka olivat häneen suostuneet, hajotettiin, ja he joutuivat häviöön.
37 After that, during the time when they were (writing down names of the people/taking the census) [in order to tax people, a man named] Judas from Galilee [province] rebelled [against the Roman government]. He persuaded some people to accompany him. But [soldiers] killed him, too, and all those who had accompanied him went off in different directions.
Hänen jälkeensä nousi Juudas, galilealainen, verollepanon päivinä ja vietteli kansaa luopumaan puolellensa; hänkin hukkui, ja kaikki, jotka olivat suostuneet häneen, hajotettiin.
38 So now I say [this] to you: Do not harm these men! Release them! I say this because if [this is just something] that humans have planned, they will not be able to do it. They will fail, [like Theudas and Judas did]
Ja nyt minä sanon teille: pysykää erillänne näistä miehistä ja antakaa heidän olla; sillä jos tämä hanke eli tämä teko on ihmisistä, niin se tyhjään raukeaa;
39 But, if God [has commanded them to do it], you will not be able to prevent them [from doing it, because] you will find out that you are opposing God!” The other members of the Council accepted what Gamaliel said.
mutta jos se on Jumalasta, niin te ette voi heitä kukistaa. Varokaa, ettei teitä ehkä havaittaisi sotiviksi itse Jumalaa vastaan."
40 They told the [temple guards to bring the apostles and flog them. So the guards] brought them [into the Council room] and flogged them. Then the Council members commanded them not to speak to people about [MTY] Jesus, and they released the apostles.
Niin he noudattivat hänen neuvoansa. Ja he kutsuivat apostolit sisään ja pieksättivät heitä ja kielsivät heitä puhumasta Jeesuksen nimeen ja päästivät heidät menemään.
41 So the apostles left the Council. They were rejoicing, because [they knew God] had honored them [by letting people] disgrace them because they were followers [MTY] of Jesus.
Niin he lähtivät pois neuvostosta iloissaan siitä, että olivat katsotut arvollisiksi kärsimään häväistystä Jeesuksen nimen tähden.
42 And every day [the apostles went to] the temple [area] and to various [people’s] houses, [and] they continued [LIT] teaching [people] and telling [them] that Jesus is the Messiah.
Eivätkä he lakanneet, vaan opettivat joka päivä pyhäkössä ja kodeissa ja julistivat evankeliumia Kristuksesta Jeesuksesta.
