Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property.
1有一個人，名叫 亞拿尼亞 ，同他的妻子 撒非喇 賣了田產，
2With his wife’s full knowledge, he kept back some of the proceeds for himself, but brought a portion and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
2把價銀私自留下幾分，他的妻子也知道，其餘的幾分拿來放在使徒腳前。
3Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and withhold some of the proceeds from the land?
3彼得 說：「 亞拿尼亞 ！為甚麼撒但充滿了你的心，叫你欺哄聖靈，把田地的價銀私自留下幾分呢？
4Did it not belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? How could you conceive such a deed in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God!”
4田地還沒有賣，不是你自己的嗎？既賣了，價銀不是你作主嗎？你怎麼心裏起這意念呢？你不是欺哄人，是欺哄上帝了。」
5On hearing these words, Ananias fell down and died. And great fear came over all who heard what had happened.
5亞拿尼亞 聽見這話，就仆倒，斷了氣；聽見的人都甚懼怕。
6Then the young men stepped forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.
6有些少年人起來，把他包裹，抬出去埋葬了。
7About three hours later his wife also came in, unaware of what had happened.
7約過了三小時，他的妻子進來，還不知道這事。
8“Tell me,” said Peter, “is this the price you and your husband got for the land?” “Yes,” she answered, “that is the price.”
8彼得 對她說：「你告訴我，你們賣田地的價銀就是這些嗎？」她說：「就是這些。」
9“How could you agree to test the Spirit of the Lord?” Peter replied. “Look, the feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”
9彼得 說：「你們為甚麼同心試探主的靈呢？埋葬你丈夫之人的腳已到門口，他們也要把你抬出去。」
10At that instant she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
10婦人立刻仆倒在 彼得 腳前，斷了氣。那些少年人進來，見她已經死了，就抬出去，埋在她丈夫旁邊。
11And great fear came over the whole church and all who heard about these events.
11全教會和聽見這事的人都甚懼怕。
12The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people, and with one accord the believers gathered together in Solomon’s Colonnade.
12主藉使徒的手在民間行了許多神蹟奇事；他們都同心合意地在 所羅門 的廊下。
13Although the people regarded them highly, no one else dared to join them.
13其餘的人沒有一個敢貼近他們，百姓卻尊重他們。
14Yet more and more believers were brought to the Lord—large numbers of both men and women.
14信而歸主的人越發增添，連男帶女很多。
15As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on cots and mats, so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by.
15甚至有人將病人抬到街上，放在床上或褥子上，指望 彼得 過來的時候，或者得他的影兒照在甚麼人身上。
16Crowds also gathered from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those tormented by unclean spirits, and all of them were healed.
16還有許多人帶着病人和被污鬼纏磨的，從 耶路撒冷 四圍的城邑來，全都得了醫治。
17Then the high priest and all his associates, who belonged to the party of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy. They went out
17大祭司和他的一切同人，就是撒都該教門的人，都起來，滿心忌恨，
18and arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail.
18就下手拿住使徒，收在外監。
19But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the jail and brought them out, saying,
19但主的使者夜間開了監門，領他們出來，
20“Go, stand in the temple courts and tell the people the full message of this new life.”
20說：「你們去站在殿裏，把這生命的道都講給百姓聽。」
21At daybreak the apostles entered the temple courts as they had been told and began to teach the people. When the high priest and his associates arrived, they convened the Sanhedrin—the full assembly of the elders of Israel—and sent to the jail for the apostles.
21使徒聽了這話，天將亮的時候就進殿裏去教訓人。大祭司和他的同人來了，叫齊公會的人和 以色列 族的眾長老，就差人到監裏去，要把使徒提出來。
22But on arriving at the jail, the officers did not find them there. So they returned with the report:
22但差役到了，不見他們在監裏，就回來稟報說：
23“We found the jail securely locked, with the guards posted at the doors; but when we opened them, we found no one inside.”
23「我們看見監牢關得極妥當，看守的人也站在門外；及至開了門，裏面一個人都不見。」
24When the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard this account, they were perplexed as to what was happening.
24守殿官和祭司長聽見這話，心裏犯難，不知這事將來如何。
25Then someone came in and announced, “Look, the men you put in jail are standing in the temple courts teaching the people!”
25有一個人來稟報說：「你們收在監裏的人，現在站在殿裏教訓百姓。」
26At that point, the captain went with the officers and brought the apostles—but not by force, for fear the people would stone them.
26於是守殿官和差役去帶使徒來，並沒有用強暴，因為怕百姓用石頭打他們。
27They brought them in and made them stand before the Sanhedrin, where the high priest interrogated them.
27帶到了，便叫使徒站在公會前；大祭司問他們說：
28“We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,” he said. “Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us responsible for this man’s blood.”
28「我們不是嚴嚴地禁止你們，不可奉這名教訓人嗎？你們倒把你們的道理充滿了 耶路撒冷 ，想要叫這人的血歸到我們身上！」
29But Peter and the other apostles replied, “We must obey God rather than men.
29彼得 和眾使徒回答說：「順從上帝，不順從人，是應當的。
30The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you had killed by hanging Him on a tree.
30你們掛在木頭上殺害的耶穌，我們祖宗的上帝已經叫他復活。
31God exalted Him to His right hand as Prince and Savior, in order to grant repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel.
31上帝且用右手將他高舉，叫他作君王，作救主，將悔改的心和赦罪的恩賜給 以色列 人。
32We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him.”
32我們為這事作見證；上帝賜給順從之人的聖靈也為這事作見證。」
33When the Council members heard this, they were enraged, and they resolved to put the apostles to death.
33公會的人聽見就極其惱怒，想要殺他們。
34But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law who was honored by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and ordered that the men be put outside for a short time.
34但有一個法利賽人，名叫 迦瑪列 ，是眾百姓所敬重的教法師，在公會中站起來，吩咐人把使徒暫且帶到外面去，
35“Men of Israel,” he said, “consider carefully what you are about to do to these men.
35就對眾人說：「 以色列 人哪，論到這些人，你們應當小心怎樣辦理。
36Some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men joined him. He was killed, all his followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing.
36從前 杜達 起來，自誇為大，附從他的人約有四百，他被殺後，附從他的全都散了，歸於無有。
37After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census and drew away people after him. He too perished, and all his followers were scattered.
37此後，報名上冊的時候，又有 加利利 的 猶大 起來，引誘些百姓跟從他；他也滅亡，附從他的人也都四散了。
38So in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone. Let them go! For if their purpose or endeavor is of human origin, it will fail.
38現在，我勸你們不要管這些人，任憑他們吧！他們所謀的、所行的，若是出於人，必要敗壞；
39But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop them. You may even find yourselves fighting against God.”
39若是出於上帝，你們就不能敗壞他們，恐怕你們倒是攻擊上帝了。」
40At this, they yielded to Gamaliel. They called the apostles in and had them flogged. Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and released them.
40公會的人聽從了他，便叫使徒來，把他們打了，又吩咐他們不可奉耶穌的名講道，就把他們釋放了。
41The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name.
41他們離開公會，心裏歡喜，因被算是配為這名受辱。
42Every day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they did not stop teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Christ.
42他們就每日在殿裏、在家裏不住地教訓人，傳耶穌是基督。
