Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1And as they were speaking to the people, the priests, and the officer of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,
1λαλουντων δε αυτων προσ τον λαον επεστησαν αυτοισ οι ιερεισ και ο στρατηγοσ του ιερου και οι σαδδουκαιοι
2Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached in Jesus the resurrection from the dead:
2διαπονουμενοι δια το διδασκειν αυτουσ τον λαον και καταγγελλειν εν τω ιησου την αναστασιν των νεκρων
3And they laid hands upon them, and put them in hold till the next day; for it was now evening.
3και επεβαλον αυτοισ τασ χειρασ και εθεντο εισ τηρησιν εισ την αυριον ην γαρ εσπερα ηδη
4But many of them who had heard the word, believed; and the number of the men was made five thousand.
4πολλοι δε των ακουσαντων τον λογον επιστευσαν και εγενηθη ο αριθμοσ των ανδρων ωσει χιλιαδεσ πεντε
5And it came to pass on the morrow, that their princes, and ancients, and scribes, were gathered together in Jerusalem;
5εγενετο δε επι την αυριον συναχθηναι αυτων τουσ αρχοντασ και πρεσβυτερουσ και γραμματεισ εισ ιερουσαλημ
6And Annas the high priest, and Caiphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest.
6και ανναν τον αρχιερεα και καιαφαν και ιωαννην και αλεξανδρον και οσοι ησαν εκ γενουσ αρχιερατικου
7And setting them in the midst, they asked: By what power, or by what name, have you done this?
7και στησαντεσ αυτουσ εν μεσω επυνθανοντο εν ποια δυναμει η εν ποιω ονοματι εποιησατε τουτο υμεισ
8Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said to them: Ye princes of the people, and ancients, hear:
8τοτε πετροσ πλησθεισ πνευματοσ αγιου ειπεν προσ αυτουσ αρχοντεσ του λαου και πρεσβυτεροι του ισραηλ
9If we this day are examined concerning the good deed done to the infirm man, by what means he hath been made whole:
9ει ημεισ σημερον ανακρινομεθα επι ευεργεσια ανθρωπου ασθενουσ εν τινι 5101 I-DSN ουτοσ σεσωσται
10Be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God hath raised from the dead, even by him this man standeth here before you whole.
10γνωστον εστω πασιν υμιν και παντι τω λαω ισραηλ οτι εν τω ονοματι ιησου χριστου του ναζωραιου ον υμεισ εσταυρωσατε ον ο θεοσ ηγειρεν εκ νεκρων εν τουτω ουτοσ παρεστηκεν ενωπιον υμων υγιησ
11This is the stone which was rejected by you the builders, which is become the head of the corner.
11ουτοσ εστιν ο λιθοσ ο εξουθενηθεισ υφ υμων των οικοδομουντων ο γενομενοσ εισ κεφαλην γωνιασ
12Neither is there salvation in any other. For there is no other name under heaven given to men, whereby we must be saved.
12και ουκ εστιν εν αλλω ουδενι η σωτηρια ουτε γαρ ονομα εστιν ετερον το δεδομενον εν ανθρωποισ εν ω δει σωθηναι ημασ
13Now seeing the constancy of Peter and of John, understanding that they were illiterate and ignorant men, they wondered; and they knew them that they had been with Jesus.
13θεωρουντεσ δε την του πετρου παρρησιαν και ιωαννου και καταλαβομενοι οτι ανθρωποι αγραμματοι εισιν και ιδιωται εθαυμαζον επεγινωσκον τε αυτουσ οτι συν τω ιησου ησαν
14Seeing the man also who had been healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
14τον δε ανθρωπον βλεποντεσ συν αυτοισ εστωτα τον τεθεραπευμενον ουδεν ειχον αντειπειν
15But they commanded them to go aside out of the council; and they conferred among themselves,
15κελευσαντεσ δε αυτουσ εξω του συνεδριου απελθειν συνεβαλλον προσ αλληλουσ
16Saying: What shall we do to these men? for indeed a known miracle hath been done by them, to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: it is manifest, and we cannot deny it.
16λεγοντεσ τι ποιησομεν τοισ ανθρωποισ τουτοισ οτι μεν γαρ γνωστον σημειον γεγονεν δι αυτων πασιν τοισ κατοικουσιν ιερουσαλημ φανερον και ου δυναμεθα αρνησασθαι
17But that it may be no farther spread among the people, let us threaten them that they speak no more in this name to any man.
17αλλ ινα μη επι πλειον διανεμηθη εισ τον λαον απειλη απειλησομεθα αυτοισ μηκετι λαλειν επι τω ονοματι τουτω μηδενι ανθρωπων
18And calling them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor teach in the name of Jesus.
18και καλεσαντεσ αυτουσ παρηγγειλαν αυτοισ το καθολου μη φθεγγεσθαι μηδε διδασκειν επι τω ονοματι του ιησου
19But Peter and John answering, said to them: If it be just in the sight of God, to hear you rather than God, judge ye.
19ο δε πετροσ και ιωαννησ αποκριθεντεσ προσ αυτουσ ειπον ει δικαιον εστιν ενωπιον του θεου υμων ακουειν μαλλον η του θεου κρινατε
20For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
20ου δυναμεθα γαρ ημεισ α ειδομεν και ηκουσαμεν μη λαλειν
21But they threatening, sent them away, not finding how they might punish them, because of the people; for all men glorified what had been done, in that which had come to pass.
21οι δε προσαπειλησαμενοι απελυσαν αυτουσ μηδεν ευρισκοντεσ το πωσ κολασονται αυτουσ δια τον λαον οτι παντεσ εδοξαζον τον θεον επι τω γεγονοτι
22For the man was above forty years old, in whom that miraculous cure had been wrought.
22ετων γαρ ην πλειονων τεσσαρακοντα ο ανθρωποσ εφ ον εγεγονει το σημειον τουτο τησ ιασεωσ
23And being let go, they came to their own company, and related all that the chief priests and ancients had said to them.
23απολυθεντεσ δε ηλθον προσ τουσ ιδιουσ και απηγγειλαν οσα προσ αυτουσ οι αρχιερεισ και οι πρεσβυτεροι ειπον
24Who having heard it, with one accord lifted up their voice to God, and said: Lord, thou art he that didst make heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.
24οι δε ακουσαντεσ ομοθυμαδον ηραν φωνην προσ τον θεον και ειπον δεσποτα συ ο θεοσ ο ποιησασ τον ουρανον και την γην και την θαλασσαν και παντα τα εν αυτοισ
25Who, by the Holy Ghost, by the mouth of our father David, thy servant, hast said: Why did the Gentiles rage, and the people meditate vain things?
25ο δια στοματοσ δαυιδ παιδοσ σου ειπων ινα τι εφρυαξαν εθνη και λαοι εμελετησαν κενα
26The kings of the earth stood up, and the princes assembled together against the Lord and his Christ.
26παρεστησαν οι βασιλεισ τησ γησ και οι αρχοντεσ συνηχθησαν επι το αυτο κατα του κυριου και κατα του χριστου αυτου
27For of a truth there assembled together in this city against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel,
27συνηχθησαν γαρ επ αληθειασ επι τον αγιον παιδα σου ιησουν ον εχρισασ ηρωδησ τε και ποντιοσ πιλατοσ συν εθνεσιν και λαοισ ισραηλ
28To do what thy hand and thy counsel decreed to be done.
28ποιησαι οσα η χειρ σου και η βουλη σου προωρισεν γενεσθαι
29And now, Lord, behold their threatenings, and grant unto thy servants, that with all confidence they may speak thy word,
29και τα νυν κυριε επιδε επι τασ απειλασ αυτων και δοσ τοισ δουλοισ σου μετα παρρησιασ πασησ λαλειν τον λογον σου
30By stretching forth thy hand to cures, and signs, and wonders to be done by the name of thy holy Son Jesus.
30εν τω την χειρα σου εκτεινειν σε εισ ιασιν και σημεια και τερατα γινεσθαι δια του ονοματοσ του αγιου παιδοσ σου ιησου
31And when they had prayed, the place was moved wherein they were assembled; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spoke the word of God with confidence.
31και δεηθεντων αυτων εσαλευθη ο τοποσ εν ω ησαν συνηγμενοι και επλησθησαν απαντεσ πνευματοσ αγιου και ελαλουν τον λογον του θεου μετα παρρησιασ
32And the multitude of believers had but one heart and one soul: neither did any one say that aught of the things which he possessed, was his own; but all things were common unto them.
32του δε πληθουσ των πιστευσαντων ην η καρδια και η ψυχη μια και ουδε εισ τι των υπαρχοντων αυτων ελεγεν ιδιον ειναι αλλ ην αυτοισ απαντα κοινα
33And with great power did the apostles give testimony of the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord; and great grace was in them all.
33και μεγαλη δυναμει απεδιδουν το μαρτυριον οι αποστολοι τησ αναστασεωσ του κυριου ιησου χαρισ τε μεγαλη ην επι παντασ αυτουσ
34For neither was there any one needy among them. For as many as were owners of lands or houses, sold them, and brought the price of the things they sold,
34ουδε γαρ ενδεησ τισ υπηρχεν εν αυτοισ οσοι γαρ κτητορεσ χωριων η οικιων υπηρχον πωλουντεσ εφερον τασ τιμασ των πιπρασκομενων
35And laid it down before the feet of the apostles. And distribution was made to every one, according as he had need.
35και ετιθουν παρα τουσ ποδασ των αποστολων διεδιδοτο δε εκαστω καθοτι αν τισ χρειαν ειχεν
36And Joseph, who, by the apostles, was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, by interpretation, The son of consolation,) a Levite, a Cyprian born,
36ιωσησ δε ο επικληθεισ βαρναβασ απο των αποστολων ο εστιν μεθερμηνευομενον υιοσ παρακλησεωσ λευιτησ κυπριοσ τω γενει
37Having land, sold it, and brought the price, and laid it at the feet of the apostles.
37υπαρχοντοσ αυτω αγρου πωλησασ ηνεγκεν το χρημα και εθηκεν παρα τουσ ποδασ των αποστολων
