1But a certain man named Ananias, with Saphira his wife, sold a piece of land,
1Toe Anania, tiah ahmin kaom kami maeto loe, a zu Sapphira hoi nawnto a tawnh hoi ih hmuen to a zawh,
2And by fraud kept back part of the price of the land, his wife being privy thereunto: and bringing a certain part of it, laid it at the feet of the apostles.
2anih loe angmah hanah phoisa to suek thoem, to tiah suek ih hmuen to a zu mah doeh panoek, thoemto phoisa loe patoeh ih kaminawk khokkung ah a sinh.
3But Peter said: Ananias, why hath Satan tempted thy heart, that thou shouldst lie to the Holy Ghost, and by fraud keep part of the price of the land?
3Toe Piter mah, Anania, Tipongah Kacai Muithla aling hanah, Setan palung thungah na koisak moe, long zawh ih thoemto phoisa to nangmah hanah na suek loe?
4Whilst it remained, did it not remain to thee? and after it was sold, was it not in thy power? Why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart? Thou hast not lied to men, but to God.
4Long na zaw ai naah long loe nangmah ih hmuen ah ni oh, na zawh pacoengah doeh phoisa loe nangmah ih hmuen ah na ai maw oh? Tipongah aling hanah hae tiah palung thungah na poek loe? Nang loe kami to aling ai ah, Sithaw ni na ling, tiah a naa.
5And Ananias hearing these words, fell down, and gave up the ghost. And there came great fear upon all that heard it.
5To lok to Anania mah thaih naah, anih loe amtimh moe, duek: to tamthang thaih kaminawk boih loe paroeai zit o.
6And the young men rising up, removed him, and carrying him out, buried him.
6Thendoengnawk angthawk o moe, anih ih qok to kahni hoi ayaw o pacoengah, anih to tasa bangah angzawn o moe, aphum o.
7And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
7Atue thumto pacoengah, a zu to angzoh, to tiah kaom hmuen to anih mah panoek ai.
8And Peter said to her: Tell me, woman, whether you sold the land for so much? And she said: Yea, for so much.
8Piter mah anih khaeah, Long loe hae zetto hoiah maw na zawh hoi? Na thui ah, tiah a naa. Anih mah, ue, to zetto hoiah ni ka zawh hoi, tiah a naa.
9And Peter said unto her: Why have you agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold the feet of them who have buried thy husband are at the door, and they shall carry thee out.
9Piter mah anih khaeah, Kawbangmaw Angraeng ih Muithla tanoek hanah palung na due hoi? Khenah, na sava aphum kaminawk ih khok loe khongkha taengah ni oh o vop, nang doeh nihcae mah tasa bangah angzawn o tih, tiah a naa.
10Immediately she fell down before his feet, and gave up the ghost. And the young men coming in, found her dead: and carried her out, and buried her by her husband.
10To naah anih loe Piter ih khokkung ah amtimh moe, duek: thendoengnawk a thungah akun o, anih ih qok to hnuk o naah, angzawn o pacoengah, anih to a sava ih taprong taengah aphum o.
11And there came great fear upon the whole church, and upon all that heard these things.
11To pongah kricabunawk hoi to tamthang thaih paroeai kaminawk boih nuiah kalen parai zithaih to phak.
12And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.
12Patoeh ih kaminawk loe kaminawk hma ah pop parai dawnrai hmuen hoi angmathaih hmuennawk to sak o; (nihcae loe poekhaih maeto hoiah Solomon ih impoem ta ah angcu o boih.
13But of the rest no man durst join himself unto them; but the people magnified them.
13Zit o pongah mi doeh nihcae khaeah athum o ai, toe kaminawk mah nihcae hanah paroeai khingyahaih to paek o.
14And the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord, was more increased:
14To tiah Angraeng tang kami, nongpa hoi nongpata paroeai pung o).
15Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that when Peter came, his shadow at the least, might overshadow any of them, and they might be delivered from their infirmities.
15Piter loklam ah caeh naah anih ih pakhra mah tahlip thuih nasoe, tiah a poek o pongah, nganna kaminawk to loklam ah hoih o moe, iihkhun nuiah angsong o sak.
16And there came also together to Jerusalem a multitude out of the neighboring cities, bringing sick persons, and such as were troubled with unclean spirits; who were all healed.
16Jerusalem taengah kaom avang kaminawk angzoh o moe, nganna kaminawk hoi taqawk mah naeh ih kaminawk to hoih o: nihcae loe ngantui o boih.
17Then the high priest rising up, and all they that were with him, (which is the heresy of the Sadducees,) were filled with envy.
17To pacoengah kalen koek qaima hoi anih taengah kaom kaminawk (nihcae loe Sadusi kaminawk thungah athum kami ah oh o) loe paroeai palungphui o moe, angthawk o ving.
18And they laid hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.
18Patoeh ih kaminawk to naeh o moe, thongim pakhrak o.
19But an angel of the Lord by night opening the doors of the prison, and leading them out, said:
19Toe khoving naah Angraeng ih van kami mah thongim thok to paongh pae moe, nihcae to tacawtsak,
20Go, and standing speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
20caeh oh, tempul thung ih kaminawk khaeah angdoe oh loe, hae hinghaih loknawk boih hae thui oh, tiah a naa.
21Who having heard this, early in the morning, entered into the temple, and taught. And the high priest coming, and they that were with him, called together the council, and all the ancients of the children of Israel; and they sent to the prison to have them brought.
21Nihcae mah to lok to thaih o naah, khawnthaw ah tempul thungah akun o moe, patuk o. Toe kalen koek qaima hoi anih taengah kaom kaminawk to angzoh o, Israel kacoehtanawk boih amkhueng hanah a kawk o moe, thongim thungah kaom patoeh ih kaminawk to laksak.
22But when the ministers came, and opening the prison, found them not there, they returned and told,
22Toe toksah kaminawk thongim ah phak o naah, patoeh ih kaminawk to thongim thungah hnu o ai, to pongah nihcae loe amlaem o let,
23Saying: The prison indeed we found shut with all diligence, and the keepers standing before the doors; but opening it, we found no man within.
23kahoihah kangkha thongim to ka hnuk o, khongkha taengah angdoe thongim toep kaminawk doeh ka hnuk o: toe khongkha ka paongh o naah a thungah mi doeh ka hnu o ai, tiah a naa o.
24Now when the officer of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were in doubt concerning them, what would come to pass.
24Kalen qaima, tempul thungah toksah angraeng hoi kalen koek qaimanawk mah to lok to thaih o naah, kawbangmaw to tiah hmuen om thai tih, tiah a poek anghmang hoiah oh o.
25But one came and told them: Behold, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple standing, and teaching the people.
25To naah kami maeto angzoh moe, nihcae khaeah, Khenah, thongim na pakhrak o ih kaminawk loe tempul thungah angdoet o moe, kaminawk to patuk o, tiah a naa.
26Then went the officer with the ministers, and brought them without violence; for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.
26To naah misatuh angraeng loe angmah ih kaminawk hoi nawnto caeh, kaminawk mah nihcae to thlung hoiah va o moeng tih, tiah a zit o pongah, patoeh ih kaminawk to lunghoihta hoiah a hoih o.
27And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest asked them,
27Nihcae a hoih o pacoengah, lokcaek kaminawk hma ah suek o moe, araengh sang qaima mah nihcae khaeah,
28Saying: Commanding we commanded you, that you should not teach in this name; and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you have a mind to bring the blood of this man upon us.
28hae kami ih ahmin hoiah kaminawk patuk han ai ah lok kang thuih o boeh na ai maw? Khenah, Jerusalem loe nangcae patukhaih hoiah koi boeh, hae kami ih athii kaicae nuiah kraksak hanah na pacaeng o, tiah a naa o.
29But Peter and the apostles answering, said: We ought to obey God, rather than men.
29To naah Piter hoi patoeh ih kalah kaminawk mah, Kaicae loe kami ih lok pongah loe Sithaw ih lok to ni ka tahngaih o han, tiah a naa o.
30The God of our fathers hath raised up Jesus, whom you put to death, hanging him upon a tree.
30Thinglam nuiah na takhing o moe, na hum o ih, Jesu loe aicae ampanawk ih Sithaw mah pathawk let boeh.
31Him hath God exalted with his right hand, to be Prince and Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and remission of sins.
31Israel kaminawk khaeah dawnpakhuemhaih hoi zae tahmenhaih to paek hanah, Anih to Sithaw mah a bantang ban hoiah Angraeng hoi pahlongkung ah pakoeh boeh.
32And we are witnesses of these things and the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to all that obey him.
32Kaicae loe hae hmuennawk hnukung ah ka oh o, to baktih toengah Angmah lok tahngai kaminawk khaeah Sithaw mah paek ih Kacai Muithla hnukung ah doeh ka oh o.
33When they had heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they thought to put them to death.
33Nihcae mah to lok to thaih o naah, palungphui o moe, nihcae to hum hanah patoem o.
34But one in the council rising up, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, respected by all the people, commanded the men to be put forth a little while.
34Toe kaalok patukkung, kami boih thungah ahmin kamthang, Gamaliel, tiah ahmin kaom Farasi kami maeto loe lokcaekhaih im ah angdoet moe, patoeh ih kaminawk to nawnetta thung tasa bangah tacawt o hanah lok a paek.
35And he said to them: Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do, as touching these men.
35Anih mah toah kaom kaminawk khaeah, Israel kaminawk, hae kaminawk nuiah sak han na tim o ih hmuen pongah acoe oh.
36For before these days rose up Theodas, affirming himself to be somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all that believed him were scattered, and brought to nothing.
36Canghnii ah Teuda, tiah ahmin kaom kami maeto mah kai loe lokpui parai ah kaom kami maeto ah ka oh, tiah a thuih; anih hnukah kami cumvai palito bang o: toe paroeai a hnukbang kaminawk loe, anih duek pacoengah ampraek o phang moe, tiah doeh angcoeng o ai.
37After this man, rose up Judas of Galilee, in the days of the enrolling, and drew away the people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as consented to him, were dispersed.
37Anih pacoengah doeh Juda, tiah ahmin kaom Kalili kami maeto loe milu lakhaih atue nathuem ah, to tiah oh let bae, paroeai kaminawk anih hnukah bang o: anih to duek naah, paroeai a hnukbang kaminawk loe ampraek o phang.
38And now, therefore, I say to you, refrain from these men, and let them alone; for if this council or this work be of men, it will come to nought;
38Vaihi hae kaminawk hoi kamhoe ah na oh o hanah, lok kang thuih o, nihcae loe angmacae hmawk ah om o nasoe: a sak o ih tok loe kami ih tok ah om nahaeloe, anghmaa angtaa tih:
39But if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it, lest perhaps you be found even to fight against God. And they consented to him.
39toe Sithaw ih tok ah om nahaeloe, na phrae o thai mak ai; to tih ai nahaeloe nangcae loe Sithaw ih lok aek kami ah na om o moeng tih, tiah a naa.
40And calling in the apostles, after they had scourged them, they charged them that they should not speak at all in the name of Jesus; and they dismissed them.
40Anih mah thuih ih lok to nihcae mah tahngaih pae o: to pacoengah nihcae mah patoeh ih kaminawk to a thungah kawk o moe, boh o, Jesu ih ahmin hoiah lokthuih o han ai ah, a thuih pae o pacoengah prawt o.
41And they indeed went from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were accounted worthy to suffer reproach for the name of Jesus.
41Patoeh ih kaminawk loe lokcaekhaih im hoiah tacawt o, Anih ih ahmin pongah patang a khang o moe, azathaih a tongh o cadoeh atho oh, tiah a poek o pongah, nihcae loe anghoehaih tawnh o.
42And every day they ceased not in the temple, and from house to house, to teach and preach Christ Jesus.
42Nithokkruek tempul hoi im kruekah, anghak ai ah patuk o moe, Jesu Kri tamthanglok hoih to taphong o.
