Acts 4

Ary raha mbola niteny tamin'ny vahoaka izy, dia, indreo, tonga teo aminy ny mpisorona sy ny lehiben'ny mpiambina ny tempoly ary ny Sadoseo;

And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,

fa sosotra izy noho ny nampianaran'ny Apostoly ny vahoaka sy ny nitoriany tamin'ny alalan'i Jesosy ny fitsanganana amin'ny maty.

Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

Dia nisambotra azy izy ka nanao azy tao an-tranomaizina ambara-pahamarain'ny andro; fa efa hariva ny andro tamin'izay.

And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.

Kanefa maro tamin'izay nandre ny teny no nino, ka dia tonga tokony ho dimy arivo no isan'ny lehilahy.

Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.

Ary nony maraina ny andro, dia niangona tany Jerosalema ny mpanapaka sy ny loholona sy ny mpanora-dalàna

And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,

sy Anasy mpisoronabe sy Kaiafa sy Jaona sy Aleksandro mbamin'izay rehetra mety ho havan'ny mpisoronabe.

And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.

Ary rehefa nataony teo ampovoany izy roa lahy, dia nanontaniany hoe: Fahefana manao ahoana, na anarana manao ahoana, no nanaovanareo izany?

And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?

Ary Petera, feno ny Fanahy Masina, dia nanao taminy hoe: Ry mpanapaka ny vahoaka sy loholona,

Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

raha adinina izahay anin'ny amin'ny asa tsara natao tamin'ny nahasitranana ilay lehilahy malemy,

If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;

dia aoka ho fantatrareo rehetra sy ny olona Isiraely rehetra fa ny anaran'i Jesosy Kristy avy any Nazareta, Izay nohomboanareo tamin'ny hazo fijaliana, fa natsangan'Andriamanitra tamin'ny maty kosa, dia Izy no itsanganan'io lehilahy io finaritra eto imasonareo.

Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.

Ity no vato izay nolavinareo mpanao trano, nefa tonga fehizoro (Sal. 118. 22).

This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

Ary tsy misy famonjena amin'ny hafa; fa tsy misy anarana hafa ambanin'ny lanitra nomena ny olona izay hahazoantsika famonjena.

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Ary nony nahita ny fahasahisahian'i Petera sy Jaona izy, sady nahalala fa tsy mba mpahay lalàna na nampianarina izy roa lahy, dia gaga izy; ary fantany tsara fa efa niaraka tamin'i Jesosy izy roa lahy.

Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

Ary nony nijery ny lehilahy izay efa sitrana nitsangana teo aminy izy, dia tsy hitany izay havaliny.

And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.

Ary rehefa nasainy niala teo amin'ny Synedriona izy roa lahy, dia niara-nisaina izy

But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,

ka nanao hoe: Hataontsika ahoana ireo lehilahy ireo? fa efa nanao famantarana malaza tokoa izy, ary fantatry ny mponina rehetra eto Jerosalema izany, ka tsy azontsika lavina.

Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.

Fa mba tsy hielezan'izany intsony amin'ny vahoaka, dia aoka horahonantsika izy mba tsy hiteny amin'izany anarana izany intsony na amin'iza na amin'iza.

But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.

Ary niantso azy izy ka nandrara azy tsy hiteny na hampianatra amin'ny anaran'i Jesosy intsony.

And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

Fa Petera sy Jaona kosa namaly azy ka nanao hoe: Tsaraonareo na marina eo imason'Andriamanitra, na tsia, ny hanaiky anareo mihoatra noho Andriamanitra.

But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.

Fa izahay tsy maintsy milaza izay zavatra efa hitanay sy renay.

For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

Ary rehefa norahonany indray izy, dia nalefany; fa tsy hitany izay hampijaliany azy noho ny tahony ny vahoaka; satria izy rehetra nankalaza an'Andriamanitra noho ny amin'ny zavatra efa natao.

So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done.

Fa efa tsy omby efa-polo taona ralehilahy izay nanaovana izany famantarana nahasitrana azy izany.

For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed.

Ary rehefa nalefa izy roa lahy, dia tonga teo amin'ny namany ka nanambara izay rehetra nolazain'ny lohan'ny mpisorona sy ny loholona taminy.

And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.

Fa rehefa nandre izany izy ireo, dia niara-nanandratra ny feony ho amin'Andriamanitra ka nanao hoe: Tompo ô, Hianao no nanao ny lanitra sy ny tany ary ny ranomasina mbamin'izay rehetra ao anatiny,

And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:

ary ny Fanahy Masina no nampitenenanao an'i Davida razanay sady mpanomponao hoe: Nahoana no mitabataba ny jentilisa, Ary misaina anoano foana ny firenena?

Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

Ireo mpanjakan'ny tany nitsangana, Ary ny mpanapaka niangona Hanohitra an'i Jehovah sy ny Mesiany (Sal. 2. 1, 2).

The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

Fa efa niangona marina tokoa teto amin'ity tanàna ity Heroda sy Pontio Pilato mbamin'ny jentilisa sy ny olona Isiraely hanohitra ny Mpanomponao Masina, dia Jesosy Izay nohosoranao,

For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,

mba hanao izay notendren'ny tananao aman-tsainao rahateo hatao.

For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.

Koa ankehitriny, Tompo ô, jereo ny fandrahonany; ary omeo anay mpanomponao ny mba hitory ny teninao amin'ny fahasahiana rehetra,

And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,

omban'ny aninjiranao ny tananao hahasitrana sy ny anaovana famantarana sy fahagagana amin'ny anaran'i Jesosy, Mpanomponao Masina.

By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

Ary rehefa nivavaka izy, dia nihovitrovitra ny trano izay niangonany; dia feno ny Fanahy Masina izy rehetra ka nitory ny tenin'Andriamanitra tamin'ny fahasahiana.

And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.

Ary niray fo sy fanahy ny olona rehetra izay nino; ary tsy nisy nanonona ny fananany ho azy na dia iray aza, fa niombonany avokoa ny zavatra rehetra nananany.

And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

Ary tamin'ny hery be no nanambaran'ny Apostoly ny nitsanganan'i Jesosy Tompo; ary fahasoavana be no tao amin'izy rehetra.

And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

Fa tsy nisy olona nalahelo teo aminy; fa izay nanana tany na trano, raha nivarotra izany, dia nitondra ny vola vidin'ny zavatra lafo,

Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

ka napetrany teo anoloan'ny tongotry ny Apostoly, dia nozaraina tamin'izy rehetra araka izay nilainy avy

And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

Ary Josefa, izay nataon'ny Apostoly hoe koa Barnabasy (izany hoe, raha adika, Zanaky ny fananarana), Levita, avy any Kyprosy no firazanany,

And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus,

dia nivarotra ny sahany, ary nentiny ny vola vidiny ka napetrany teo anoloan'ny tongotry ny Apostoly.

Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
