ASV_Strong : Acts 4
1. And[G1161] as[G2980] they[G846] spake[G2980] unto[G4314] the people[G2992], the priests[G2409] and[G2532] the captain[G4755] of the temple[G2411] and[G2532] the Sadducees[G4523] came upon[G2186] them[G846],
2. being sore troubled[G1278] because[G1223] they[G846] taught[G1321] the people[G2992], and[G2532] proclaimed[G2605] in[G1722] Jesus[G2424] the resurrection[G386] from[G1537] the dead[G3498].
3. And[G2532] they laid[G1911] hands[G5495] on them[G846], and[G2532] put[G5087] them in[G1519] ward[G5084] unto[G1519] the morrow[G839]: for[G1063] it was[G2258] now[G2235] eventide[G2073].
4. But[G1161] many[G4183] of them that heard[G191] the word[G3056] believed[G4100]; and[G2532] the number[G706] of the men[G435] came to be[G1096] about[G5616] five[G4002] thousand[G5505].
5. And[G1161] it came to pass[G1096] on[G1909] the morrow[G839], that[G4863] their[G846] rulers[G758] and[G2532] elders[G4245] and[G2532] scribes[G1122] were gathered together in[G1519] Jerusalem[G2419];
6. and[G2532] Annas[G452] the high priest[G749] was there[G2532], and Caiaphas[G2533], and[G2532] John[G2491], and[G2532] Alexander[G223], and[G2532] as many as[G3745] were[G2258] of[G1537] the kindred[G1085] of the high priest[G748].
7. And[G2532] when[G2476] they[G846] had set[G2476] them in[G1722] the midst[G3319], they inquired[G4441], By[G1722] what[G4169] power[G1411], or[G2228] in[G1722] what[G4169] name[G3686], have[G4160] ye[G5210] done[G4160] this[G5124]?
8. Then[G5119] Peter[G4074], filled[G4130] with the[G4151] Holy[G40] Spirit[G4151], said[G2036] unto[G4314] them[G846], Ye rulers[G758] of the people[G2992], and[G2532] elders[G4245],
9. if[G1487] we[G2249] this day[G4594] are examined[G350] concerning[G1909] a good deed done[G2108] to[G444] an impotent[G772] man[G444], by[G1722] what means[G5101] this man[G3778] is made whole[G4982];
10. be it[G2077] known[G1110] unto you[G5213] all[G3956], and[G2532] to all[G3956] the people[G2992] of Israel[G2474], that[G3754] in[G1722] the name[G3686] of Jesus[G2424] Christ[G5547] of Nazareth[G3480], whom[G3739] ye[G5210] crucified[G4717], whom[G3739] God[G2316] raised[G1453] from[G1537] the dead[G3498], even in[G1722] him doth[G3936] this[G5129] man[G3778] stand here[G3936] before[G1799] you[G5216] whole[G5199].
11. He[G3778] is[G2076] the stone[G3037] which[G3588] was set at nought[G1848] of[G5259] you[G5216] the builders[G3618], which[G3588] was made[G1096] the[G1519] head[G2776] of the corner[G1137].
12. And in[G1722] none[G3777] other[G243] is there[G2076] salvation[G4991]: for[G1063] neither[G3777] is[G2076] there any other[G2087] name[G3686] under[G5259] heaven[G3772], that is given[G1325] among[G1722] men[G444], [G1722] wherein[G3739] we[G2248] must[G1163] be saved[G4982].
13. Now[G1161] when they beheld[G2334] the boldness[G3954] of Peter[G4074] and[G2532] John[G2491], and[G2532] had perceived[G2638] that[G3754] they were[G1526] unlearned[G62] and[G2532] ignorant[G2399] men[G444], they marvelled[G2296]; and[G5037] they took knowledge[G1921] of them[G846], that[G3754] they had been[G2258] with[G4862] Jesus[G2424].
14. And[G1161] seeing[G991] the man[G444] that[G3588] was healed[G2323] standing[G2476] with[G4862] them[G846], they could[G2192] say[G471] nothing[G3762] against it[G471].
15. But[G1161] when they had commanded[G2753] them[G846] to go aside[G565] out of[G1854] the council[G4892], they conferred[G4820] among[G4314] themselves[G240],
16. saying[G3004], What[G5101] shall we do[G4160] to[G444] these[G5125] men[G444]? for[G1063] that[G3754] indeed[G3303] a notable[G1110] miracle[G4592] hath been wrought[G1096] through[G1223] them[G846], is manifest[G5318] to all[G3956, 2730] that[G3588] dwell[G2730] in Jerusalem[G2419]; and[G2532] we[G1410] cannot[G3756] deny it[G720].
17. But[G235] that[G2443] it spread[G1268] no[G3361] further[G4119, Esther9] among[G1519] the people[G2992], let us[G546, 547] threaten[G546] them[G846], that they speak[G2980] henceforth[G3371] to no[G3367] man[G444] in[G1909] this[G5129] name[G3686].
18. And[G2532] they called[G2564] them[G846], and[G2532] charged[G3853] them[G846] not[G3361] to speak[G5350] at all[G2527] nor[G3366] teach[G1321] in[G1909] the name[G3686] of Jesus[G2424].
19. But[G1161] Peter[G4074] and[G2532] John[G2491] answered[G611] and said[G2036] unto[G4314] them[G846], Whether[G1487] it is[G2076] right[G1342] in the sight of[G1799] God[G2316] to hearken[G191] unto you[G5216] rather[G3123] than[G2228] unto God[G2316], judge ye[G2919]:
20. for[G1063] we[G2249, 1410] cannot[G3756] but[G3361] speak[G2980] the things which[G3739] we saw[G1492] and[G2532] heard[G191].
21. And[G1161] they[G4324], when they had further threatened them[G846], let them go[G630], finding[G2147] nothing[G3367] how[G4459] they might punish[G2849] them[G846], because of[G3754] the people[G2992]; for[G1223] all[G3956] men glorified[G1392] God[G2316] for[G1909] that[G3588] which was done[G1096].
22. For[G1063] the man[G444] was[G2258] more[G4119] than forty[G5062] years old[G2094], on[G1909] whom[G3739] this[G5124] miracle[G4592] of healing[G2392] was wrought[G1096].
23. And[G1161] being let go[G630], they came[G2064] to[G4314] their own company[G2398], and[G2532] reported[G518] all that[G3745] the chief priests[G749] and[G2532] the elders[G4245] had said[G2036] unto[G4314] them[G846].
24. And[G1161] they[G191], when they heard it[G3588], lifted up[G142] their voice[G5456] to[G4314] God[G2316] with one accord[G3661], and[G2532] said[G2036], O Lord[G1203], [G2316] thou[G4771] that[G3588] didst make[G4160] the heaven[G3772] and[G2532] the earth[G1093] and[G2532] the sea[G2281], and[G2532] all[G3956] that[G3588] in[G1722] them[G846] is[G1722]:
25. who[G3588] by[G1223] the Holy Spirit[G4750], by the mouth of our father David[G1138] thy[G4675] servant[G3816], didst say[G2036], Why[G2444] did[G5433] the Gentiles[G1484] rage[G5433], And[G2532] the peoples[G2992] imagine[G3191] vain things[G2756]?
26. The kings[G935] of the earth[G1093] set[G3936] themselves in array[G2532], And the rulers[G758] were gathered[G4863] together[G1909], Against[G2596] the[G846] Lord[G2962], and[G2532] against[G2596] his[G846] Anointed[G5547]:
27. for[G1063] of a truth[G225] in this city against[G1909] thy[G4675] holy[G40] Servant[G3816] Jesus[G2424], whom[G3739] thou didst anoint[G5548], both[G5037] Herod[G2264] and[G2532] Pontius[G4194] Pilate[G4091], with[G4862] the Gentiles[G1484] and[G2532] the peoples[G2992] of Israel[G2474], were gathered[G4863] together[G1909],
28. to do[G4160] whatsoever[G3745] thy[G4675] hand[G5495] and[G2532] thy[G4675] council[G1012] foreordained[G4309] to come to pass[G1096].
29. And[G2532] now[G3568], Lord[G2962], look[G1896] upon their[G846] threatenings[G1909]: and[G2532] grant[G1325] unto[G1401] thy[G4675] servants[G1401] to speak[G2980] thy[G4675] word[G3056] with[G3326] all[G3956] boldness[G3954],
30. while[G1722] thy stretchest forth[G1614] thy[G4675, 4571] hand[G5495] to[G1519] heal[G2392]; and[G2532] that[G1519] signs[G4592] and[G2532] wonders[G5059] may be done[G1096] through[G1223] the name[G3686] of[G3816] thy[G4675] holy[G40] Servant[G3816] Jesus[G2424].
31. And[G2532] when[G1189] they[G846] had prayed[G1189], the place[G5117] was shaken[G4531] wherein[G3739, 1722] they were[G2258] gathered together[G4863]; and[G2532] they were[G4130] all[G537] filled[G4130] with the[G4151] Holy[G40] Spirit[G4151], and[G2532] they spake[G2980] the word[G3056] of God[G2316] with[G3326] boldness[G3954].
32. And[G1161] the multitude[G4128] of them[G4100] that[G3588] believed[G4100] were[G2258] of[G2588] one[G1520] heart[G2588] and[G2532, 5590, 2532] soul[G5590]: and not[G3761] one[G1520] of[G5100] them said[G3004] that[G3588] aught of the things which he possessed[G5224] was[G1511] his[G846] own[G2398]; but[G235] they[G846] had[G2258] all things[G537] common[G2839].
33. And[G2532] with[G1411] great[G3173] power[G1411] gave[G591] the apostles[G652] their witness[G3142] of the resurrection[G386] of the Lord[G2962] Jesus[G2424]: and[G5037] great[G3173] grace[G5485] was[G2258] upon[G1909] them[G846] all[G3956].
34. For neither[G3761] was there[G5225] among[G1722] them[G846] any[G5100] that[G5225] lacked[G1729]: for[G1063] as many as[G3745] were[G5225] possessors[G2935] of lands[G5564] or[G2228] houses[G3614] sold them[G4453], and brought[G5342] the prices[G5092] of the things that were sold[G4097],
35. and[G2532] laid[G5087] them[G5087] at[G3844] the apostles[G652]' feet[G4228]: and[G1161] distribution was made[G1239] unto each[G1538], according as[G2530] any one[G5100, Leviticus2] had[G2192] need[G5532].
36. And[G1161] Joseph[G2500], who[G3588] by[G5259] the apostles[G652] was surnamed[G1941] Barnabas[G921] (which[G3739] is[G2076], being interpreted[G3177], Son[G5207] of exhortation[G3874]), a Levite[G3019], a man of[G1085] Cyprus by race[G2953],
37. having[G5225] a field[G68], sold[G4453] it[G2532], and brought[G5342] the money[G5536] and[G2532] laid[G5087] it at[G3844] the apostles[G652]' feet[G4228].
