Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
1ανηρ δε τισ ανανιασ ονοματι συν σαπφειρη τη γυναικι αυτου επωλησεν κτημα
2And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it , and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
2και ενοσφισατο απο τησ τιμησ συνειδυιασ και τησ γυναικοσ αυτου και ενεγκασ μεροσ τι παρα τουσ ποδασ των αποστολων εθηκεν
3But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
3ειπεν δε πετροσ ανανια δια τι επληρωσεν ο σατανασ την καρδιαν σου ψευσασθαι σε το πνευμα το αγιον και νοσφισασθαι σε απο τησ τιμησ του χωριου
4Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.
4ουχι μενον σοι εμενεν και πραθεν εν τη ση εξουσια υπηρχεν τι οτι εθου εν τη καρδια σου το πραγμα τουτο ουκ εψευσω ανθρωποισ αλλα τω θεω
5And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
5ακουων δε ο ανανιασ τουσ λογουσ τουτουσ πεσων εξεψυξεν και εγενετο φοβοσ μεγασ επι παντασ τουσ ακουοντασ ταυτα
6And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him .
6ανασταντεσ δε οι νεωτεροι συνεστειλαν αυτον και εξενεγκαντεσ εθαψαν
7And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.
7εγενετο δε ωσ ωρων τριων διαστημα και η γυνη αυτου μη ειδυια το γεγονοσ εισηλθεν
8And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.
8απεκριθη δε αυτη ο πετροσ ειπε μοι ει τοσουτου το χωριον απεδοσθε η δε ειπεν ναι τοσουτου
9Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.
9ο δε πετροσ ειπεν προσ αυτην τι οτι συνεφωνηθη υμιν πειρασαι το πνευμα κυριου ιδου οι ποδεσ των θαψαντων τον ανδρα σου επι τη θυρα και εξοισουσιν σε
10Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband.
10επεσεν δε παραχρημα παρα τουσ ποδασ αυτου και εξεψυξεν εισελθοντεσ δε οι νεανισκοι ευρον αυτην νεκραν και εξενεγκαντεσ εθαψαν προσ τον ανδρα αυτησ
11And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.
11και εγενετο φοβοσ μεγασ εφ ολην την εκκλησιαν και επι παντασ τουσ ακουοντασ ταυτα
12¶ And 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.
12δια δε των χειρων των αποστολων εγινετο σημεια και τερατα εν τω λαω πολλα και ησαν ομοθυμαδον απαντεσ εν τη στοα σολομωντοσ
13And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.
13των δε λοιπων ουδεισ ετολμα κολλασθαι αυτοισ αλλ εμεγαλυνεν αυτουσ ο λαοσ
14And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)
14μαλλον δε προσετιθεντο πιστευοντεσ τω κυριω πληθη ανδρων τε και γυναικων
15Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
15ωστε κατα τασ πλατειασ εκφερειν τουσ ασθενεισ και τιθεναι επι κλινων και κραββατων ινα ερχομενου πετρου καν η σκια επισκιαση τινι αυτων
16There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.
16συνηρχετο δε και το πληθοσ των περιξ πολεων εισ ιερουσαλημ φεροντεσ ασθενεισ και οχλουμενουσ υπο πνευματων ακαθαρτων οιτινεσ εθεραπευοντο απαντεσ
17¶ Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation,
17αναστασ δε ο αρχιερευσ και παντεσ οι συν αυτω η ουσα αιρεσισ των σαδδουκαιων επλησθησαν ζηλου
18And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.
18και επεβαλον τασ χειρασ αυτων επι τουσ αποστολουσ και εθεντο αυτουσ εν τηρησει δημοσια
19But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,
19αγγελοσ δε κυριου δια τησ νυκτοσ ηνοιξεν τασ θυρασ τησ φυλακησ εξαγαγων τε αυτουσ ειπεν
20Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
20πορευεσθε και σταθεντεσ λαλειτε εν τω ιερω τω λαω παντα τα ρηματα τησ ζωησ ταυτησ
21And when they heard that , they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
21ακουσαντεσ δε εισηλθον υπο τον ορθρον εισ το ιερον και εδιδασκον παραγενομενοσ δε ο αρχιερευσ και οι συν αυτω συνεκαλεσαν το συνεδριον και πασαν την γερουσιαν των υιων ισραηλ και απεστειλαν εισ το δεσμωτηριον αχθηναι αυτουσ
22But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned, and told,
22οι δε υπηρεται παραγενομενοι ουχ ευρον αυτουσ εν τη φυλακη αναστρεψαντεσ δε απηγγειλαν
23Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.
23λεγοντεσ οτι το μεν δεσμωτηριον ευρομεν κεκλεισμενον εν παση ασφαλεια και τουσ φυλακασ εστωτασ προ των θυρων ανοιξαντεσ δε εσω ουδενα ευρομεν
24Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them whereunto this would grow.
24ωσ δε ηκουσαν τουσ λογουσ τουτουσ ο τε ιερευσ και ο στρατηγοσ του ιερου και οι αρχιερεισ διηπορουν περι αυτων τι αν γενοιτο τουτο
25Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.
25παραγενομενοσ δε τισ απηγγειλεν αυτοισ οτι ιδου οι ανδρεσ ουσ εθεσθε εν τη φυλακη εισιν εν τω ιερω εστωτεσ και διδασκοντεσ τον λαον
26Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.
26τοτε απελθων ο στρατηγοσ συν τοισ υπηρεταισ ηγαγεν αυτουσ ου μετα βιασ εφοβουντο γαρ τον λαον ινα μη λιθασθωσιν
27And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them,
27αγαγοντεσ δε αυτουσ εστησαν εν τω συνεδριω και επηρωτησεν αυτουσ ο αρχιερευσ
28Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man’s blood upon us.
28λεγων ου παραγγελια παρηγγειλαμεν υμιν μη διδασκειν επι τω ονοματι τουτω και ιδου πεπληρωκατε την ιερουσαλημ τησ διδαχησ υμων και βουλεσθε επαγαγειν εφ ημασ το αιμα του ανθρωπου τουτου
29¶ Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
29αποκριθεισ δε πετροσ και οι αποστολοι ειπον πειθαρχειν δει θεω μαλλον η ανθρωποισ
30The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.
30ο θεοσ των πατερων ημων ηγειρεν ιησουν ον υμεισ διεχειρισασθε κρεμασαντεσ επι ξυλου
31Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
31τουτον ο θεοσ αρχηγον και σωτηρα υψωσεν τη δεξια αυτου δουναι μετανοιαν τω ισραηλ και αφεσιν αμαρτιων
32And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
32και ημεισ εσμεν αυτου μαρτυρεσ των ρηματων τουτων και το πνευμα δε το αγιον ο εδωκεν ο θεοσ τοισ πειθαρχουσιν αυτω
33¶ When they heard that , they were cut to the heart , and took counsel to slay them.
33οι δε ακουοντεσ διεπριοντο και εβουλευοντο ανελειν αυτουσ
34Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;
34αναστασ δε τισ εν τω συνεδριω φαρισαιοσ ονοματι γαμαλιηλ νομοδιδασκαλοσ τιμιοσ παντι τω λαω εκελευσεν εξω βραχυ τι τουσ αποστολουσ ποιησαι
35And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.
35ειπεν τε προσ αυτουσ ανδρεσ ισραηλιται προσεχετε εαυτοισ επι τοισ ανθρωποισ τουτοισ τι μελλετε πρασσειν
36For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.
36προ γαρ τουτων των ημερων ανεστη θευδασ λεγων ειναι τινα εαυτον ω προσεκληθη αριθμοσ ανδρων ωσει τετρακοσιων οσ ανηρεθη και παντεσ οσοι επειθοντο αυτω διελυθησαν και εγενοντο εισ ουδεν
37After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
37μετα τουτον ανεστη ιουδασ ο γαλιλαιοσ εν ταισ ημεραισ τησ απογραφησ και απεστησεν λαον ικανον οπισω αυτου κακεινοσ απωλετο και παντεσ οσοι επειθοντο αυτω διεσκορπισθησαν
38And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:
38και τα νυν λεγω υμιν αποστητε απο των ανθρωπων τουτων και εασατε αυτουσ οτι εαν η εξ ανθρωπων η βουλη η το εργον τουτο καταλυθησεται
39But if it be of God, ye can not overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.
39ει δε εκ θεου εστιν ου δυνασθε καταλυσαι αυτο μηποτε και θεομαχοι ευρεθητε
40And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them , they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
40επεισθησαν δε αυτω και προσκαλεσαμενοι τουσ αποστολουσ δειραντεσ παρηγγειλαν μη λαλειν επι τω ονοματι του ιησου και απελυσαν αυτουσ
41¶ And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
41οι μεν ουν επορευοντο χαιροντεσ απο προσωπου του συνεδριου οτι υπερ του ονοματοσ του ιησου κατηξιωθησαν ατιμασθηναι
42And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
42πασαν τε ημεραν εν τω ιερω και κατ οικον ουκ επαυοντο διδασκοντεσ και ευαγγελιζομενοι ιησουν τον χριστον
