| [1]Man one whose name was Khanan-Yah with his wife whose name was Shapira sold had his field |
[1]But a certayne man, named Ananias, with Saphyra his wyfe, solde a possession |
| [2]And he took away from its price and concealed it while aware was of it his wife and he brought some of it of the money and placed it before the feet of the Apostles |
[2]And kept away part of the price, his wyfe also beyng of counsell, and brought a certayne part, and layde it downe at the Apostles feete |
| [3]And said to him Shimeon Khanan-Yah why? thus has filled Satan your heart to cheat The Spirit of Holiness and to hide some money of the proceeds of the field |
[3]But Peter sayde: Ananias, howe is it, that Satan hath fylled thyne heart, that thou shouldest lye vnto the holy ghost, and kepe away part of the price of the lande |
| [4]Not? was yours it was until it was sold and from when it was sold again you authorized were over its proceeds Why? have you set your heart to do thing this not you have cheated sons of men but Alaha |
[4]Whyles it remayned, was it not thyne owne? And after it was solde, was it not in thyne owne power? Why haste thou conceaued this thyng in thyne heart? Thou hast not lyed vnto men, but vnto God |
| [5]And when heard Khanan-Yah these words he dropped and died and came fear great among all these who heard |
[5]When Ananias hearde these wordes, he fell downe, and gaue vp the ghost. And great feare came on all them that hearde these thynges |
| [6]And arose those young men among them and gathered him up and they took him out and buried him |
[6]And the young rose vp, and put hym a part, and caryed hym out, and buryed hym |
| [7]And from after that passed three hours also his wife entered while not known she had what had happened |
[7]And it came to passe, that as it were about the space of three houres after, his wyfe came in, ignoraunt of that which was done |
| [8]Said to her Shimeon tell me if for these proceeds you sold the field she but said Yes for these proceeds |
[8]And Peter sayde vnto her: Tell me, Solde ye not the lande for so much? And she sayde: Yea, for so much |
| [9]Said to her Shimeon because you have agreed to tempt The Spirit of the Lord behold the feet of the buriers of your husband at the door and they will take you out |
[9]Then Peter sayde vnto her: Why haue ye agreed together, to tempt the spirite of the Lorde? Beholde, the feete of the which haue buried thy husbande, are at the doore, and shall cary thee out |
| [10]And in it in the moment she fell before their feet and died and entered young men those and they found her when dead and took up brought out buried her at the side of her husband |
[10]Then fell she downe strayghtway at his feete, and yelded vp the ghost. And the young men came in, and founde her dead, and caryed her out, and buryed her by her husbande |
| [11]And was fear great in the entire church in all of them those who heard |
[11]And great feare came vpon all the Churche, and vpon as many as hearde these thynges |
| [12]And there were by the hand of the Apostles the signs and mighty acts many among the people and they all assembled were together at the porch of Shlimon |
[12]And by the handes of the Apostles, were many signes & wonders shewed among the people. (And they were all together with one accord in Solomons porche |
| [13]And of the people other a man not daring was to approach near them but magnifying were them the people |
[13]And of other durst no man ioyne hym selfe to them, neuerthelesse, the people magnified them |
| [14]And more added were those who believing were in the Lord crowds of men and of women |
[14]The number of them that beleued in the Lorde, both of men and women, grewe more and more. |
| [15]So that in the streets bringing out they were the sick while lying they were in litters that when would come Shimeon at least his shadow might overshadow them |
[15]In so much that they brought the sicke into the streates, & layde the on beddes and couches, that at the least way, the shadowe of Peter when he came by, myght shadowe some of them |
| [16]Coming were but many to them from cities other which were around Jerusalem when bringing they were the sick and those who had to them a spirit unclean and being healed they were all of them |
[16]There came also a multitude of the cities rounde about, vnto Hierusalem, bryngyng sicke folkes, and them which were vexed with vncleane spirites: And they were healed euery one |
| [17]And filled was with jealousy High The Priest and all who with him who were of the doctrine of Zaduqya |
[17]Then the chiefe priest rose vp, and all they that were with hym, which is the sect of the Saducees, and were full of indignation |
| [18]And they laid hands on the Apostles and seized and bound them in a house prisoner |
[18]And layed handes on the Apostles, and put them in the common prison |
| [19]Then in the night The Angel of the Lord opened the door of the house prisoner and brought out them and he said to them |
[19]But the Angel of the Lorde by nyght opened the prison doores, and brought them foorth, and sayde |
| [20]Go stand in the temple and speak to the people all words these of life |
[20]Go, and stande & speake in the temple to the people, all the wordes of this lyfe |
| [21]And they went out the time of dawn and they entered the temple and teaching they were High The Priest but and those with him they called their associates and The Elders of Israel and they sent to the house of prisoners to bring them the Apostles |
[21]And when they hearde that, they entred into the temple early in ye mornyng, and taught: But the chiefe priest came, and they that were with hym, & called a counsayle together, and all the elders of the chyldren of Israel, and sent to the pryson to fet them |
| [22]And when went those who were sent from them not found them in the house prisoner and returned they came |
[22]But when the officers came, & founde them not in the pryson, they returned, and tolde |
| [23]They were saying we found the house prisoner which was locked securely also by the guards standing at the door ? and a man not we found there |
[23]Saying: The pryson truely founde we shut with all diligence, & the kepers standyng without, before the doores: But when we had opened, we founde no man within |
| [24]And when heard these words Chief The Priests and The Leaders of the temple astonished they were at them and considering they were what was this |
[24]Then when the chiefe priest and the ruler of the temple, and the hye priestes hearde these thynges, they doubted of them, whervnto this woulde growe |
| [25]And came a man informing them "the same men whom you shut up in the house prisoner behold are standing in the temple" and teaching the people |
[25]Then came one and shewed them, saying: Beholde, the men that ye put in pryson, stande in the temple, and teache the people |
| [26]Then went The Leaders with attendants to bring them not with force afraid they were for lest would stone them the people |
[26]Then went the ruler of the temple, with the officers, and brought them without violence: (For they feared the people, lest they should haue ben stoned |
| [27]And when they brought them they stood them before whole the council and began he High The Priest to say to them |
[27]And when they had brought them, they set them before the counsell. And the chiefe priest asked them |
| [28]Not? have commanding we commanded we have you that a man not you teach in Name This you but behold you have filled Jerusalem from your teaching and wish you to bring upon us the blood of man this |
[28]Saying: dyd not we strayghtly commaunde you, that ye shoulde not teache in this name? And beholde, ye haue fylled Hierusalem with your doctrine, and intende to bryng this mans blood vpon vs |
| [29]Answered Shimeon with the Apostles and said to them to Alaha it is necessary to obey rather than children of men |
[29]Then Peter and the other Apostles aunswered, and sayde: We ought more to obey God then men |
| [30]The Alaha of our forefathers raised Ieshu The One Whom you murdered when you hanged Him on a tree |
[30]The God of our fathers raysed vp Iesus, whom ye slewe, & hanged on tree |
| [31]Him This One appointed Alaha The Head and The Lifegiver and has exalted Him at His right so as to give repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel |
[31]Hym hath God lyft vp with his ryght hande, to be a prince and a sauiour, for to geue repentaunce to Israel, and forgeuenesse of sinnes |
| [32]And we witnesses are of accounts these and The Spirit of Holiness Him Whom gives Alaha to those who are believing in Him |
[32]And we are recordes of these thynges which we say, & so is also the holy ghost, whom God hath geuen to them that obey hym |
| [33]And when they heard had these words enraged they were with a passion and considering they were killing them |
[33]When they hearde that, they claue asunder, and sought meanes to slea the |
| [34]And stood there one of The Pharisha whose name was Gamaliel he taught the law and was honored of all the people |
[34]Then stoode there vp one in the counsell, a pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctour of lawe, had in reputation among all the people, and commaunded the Apostles to go asyde a litle space |
| [35]And he said to them men sons of Israel and commanded to take them the Apostles outside a time little take heed to yourselves and see what is right for you to do concerning these men |
[35]And sayde vnto them: Ye men of Israel, take heede to your selues, what ye entende to do, as touchyng these men |
| [36]From before for this time arose there Theuda and said of himself that something he was great went after him about four hundred men and he was killed and those who going were after him were scattered and they were as not a thing |
[36]For before these dayes rose vp one Theudas, boastyng him selfe, to whom resorted a number of men, about a foure hundred, which was slayne: and they all which beleued hym, were scattered abrode, and brought to naught |
| [37]And arose from after him Yehuda the Galilean in the days when registered were people in the tax head and seduced people many after him and he died and all those who going were after him were scattered |
[37]After this man, arose vp one Iudas of Galilee, in the dayes of tribute, and drewe away much people after hym: He also perished, and all, euen as many as hearkened to hym, were scattered abrode |
| [38]And now say I to you separate yourselves from these men and leave them for if this from children of men is this counsel and this work they will dissolve and they will pass away |
[38]And nowe I saye vnto you, refrayne your selues fro these men, and let them alone: For yf this counsell or this worke be of men, it wyll come to naught |
| [39]If but from Alaha it is not it comes into your hands to destroy it lest you be found yourselves that against Alaha stand you |
[39]But and yf it be of God, ye can not destroy it, lest haply ye be founde to stryue agaynst God |
| [40]And they were persuaded by him and called them the Apostles and they scourged them and commanded them that not to be speaking in The Name of Ieshu and dismissed them |
[40]And to hym agreed the other: And when they had called the Apostles, they beat them, and commaunded that they shoulde not speake in the name of Iesu, and let them go |
| [41]And they departed from before them while rejoicing that worthy they were for The Name to be disgraced |
[41]And they departed from the counsell, reioycing that they were counted worthy to suffer rebuke for his name |
| [42]And not ceasing they were every day to teach in the temple and in houses and to evangelize about our Lord Ieshu The Messiah |
[42]And dayly in the temple, and in euery house, they ceassed not to teach & preach Iesus Christe |
