1有一個人，名叫，同他的妻子賣了田產，Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property.
2把價銀幾分，他的妻子也知道，其餘的幾分拿來放在使徒腳前。With his wife’s full knowledge, he kept back some of the proceeds for himself, but brought a portion and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
3彼得說：「亞拿尼亞！為甚麼撒但充滿了你的心，叫你聖靈，把田地的價銀私自留下幾分呢？Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and withhold some of the proceeds from the land?
4田地還沒有賣，不是你自己的嗎？既賣了，價銀不是你作主嗎？你怎麼心裡起這意念呢？你不是欺哄人，是欺哄 神了。」Did it not belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? How could you conceive such a deed in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God!”
5亞拿尼亞聽見這話，就，；聽見的人都甚懼怕。On hearing these words, Ananias fell down and died. And great fear came over all who heard what had happened.
6有些少年人起來，把他包裹，抬出去埋葬了。Then the young men stepped forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.
7約過了三小時，他的妻子進來，還不知道這事。About three hours later his wife also came in, unaware of what had happened.
8彼得對她說：「你告訴我，你們賣田地的價銀就是這些嗎？」她說：「就是這些。」“Tell me,” said Peter, “is this the price you and your husband got for the land?” “Yes,” she answered, “that is the price.”
9彼得說：「你們為甚麼同心主的靈呢？埋葬你丈夫之人的腳已到門口，他們也要把你抬出去。」“How could you agree to test the Spirit of the Lord?” Peter replied. “Look, the feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”
10婦人立刻仆倒在彼得腳前，斷了氣。那些少年人進來，見她已經死了，就抬出去，埋在她丈夫旁邊。At that instant she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
11全和聽見這事的人都甚懼怕。And great fear came over the whole church and all who heard about these events.
12主藉使徒的手在民間行了許多神蹟奇事；他們（或譯：信的人）都同心合意地在。The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people, and with one accord the believers gathered together in Solomon’s Colonnade.
13其餘的人沒有一個敢他們，百姓卻尊重他們。Although the people regarded them highly, no one else dared to join them.
14信而歸主的人越發增添，連男帶女很多。Yet more and more believers were brought to the Lord—large numbers of both men and women.
15甚至有人將病人抬到街上，放在床上或上，指望彼得過來的時候，或者得他的照在甚麼人身上。As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on cots and mats, so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by.
16還有許多人帶著病人和被污鬼的，從耶路撒冷四圍的城邑來，全都得了醫治。Crowds also gathered from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those tormented by unclean spirits, and all of them were healed.
17大祭司和他的一切同人，就是的人，都起來，滿心，Then the high priest and all his associates, who belonged to the party of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy. They went out
18就下手拿住使徒，收在。and arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail.
19但主的使者夜間開了監門，領他們出來，But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the jail and brought them out, saying,
20說：「你們去站在殿裡，把這生命的道都講給百姓聽。」“Go, stand in the temple courts and tell the people the full message of this new life.”
21使徒聽了這話，天將亮的時候就進殿裡去教訓人。大祭司和他的同人來了，叫齊公會的人和以色列族的眾長老，就差人到監裡去，要把使徒提出來。At daybreak the apostles entered the temple courts as they had been told and began to teach the people. When the high priest and his associates arrived, they convened the Sanhedrin—the full assembly of the elders of Israel—and sent to the jail for the apostles.
22但差役到了，不見他們在監裡，就回來稟報說：But on arriving at the jail, the officers did not find them there. So they returned with the report:
23「我們看見監牢關得極妥當，看守的人也站在門外；及至開了門，裡面一個人都不見。」“We found the jail securely locked, with the guards posted at the doors; but when we opened them, we found no one inside.”
24和祭司長聽見這話，心裡，不知這事將來如何。When the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard this account, they were perplexed as to what was happening.
25有一個人來稟報說：「你們收在監裡的人，現在站在殿裡教訓百姓。」Then someone came in and announced, “Look, the men you put in jail are standing in the temple courts teaching the people!”
26於是守殿官和差役去帶使徒來，並沒有用強暴，因為怕百姓用石頭打他們。At that point, the captain went with the officers and brought the apostles—but not by force, for fear the people would stone them.
27帶到了，便叫使徒站在公會前；大祭司問他們說：They brought them in and made them stand before the Sanhedrin, where the high priest interrogated them.
28「我們不是你們，不可奉這名教訓人嗎？你們倒把你們的道理充滿了耶路撒冷，想要叫這人的血歸到我們身上！」“We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,” he said. “Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us responsible for this man’s blood.”
29彼得和眾使徒回答說：「順從 神，不順從人，是應當的。But Peter and the other apostles replied, “We must obey God rather than men.
30你們殺害的耶穌，我們祖宗的 神已經叫他復活。The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you had killed by hanging Him on a tree.
31神且用右手將他高舉（或譯：他就是 神高舉在自己的右邊），叫他作，作救主，將悔改的心和赦罪的恩賜給以色列人。God exalted Him to His right hand as Prince and Savior, in order to grant repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel.
32我們為這事作見證； 神賜給順從之人的聖靈也為這事作見證。」We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him.”
33公會的人聽見就，想要殺他們。When the Council members heard this, they were enraged, and they resolved to put the apostles to death.
34但有一個，名叫，是眾百姓所敬重的，在公會中站起來，吩咐人把使徒暫且帶到外面去，But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law who was honored by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and ordered that the men be put outside for a short time.
35就對眾人說：「以色列人哪，論到這些人，你們應當小心怎樣辦理。“Men of Israel,” he said, “consider carefully what you are about to do to these men.
36從前起來，；附從他的人約有四百，他被殺後，附從他的全都散了，。Some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men joined him. He was killed, all his followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing.
37此後，的時候，又有起來，引誘些百姓跟從他；他也滅亡，附從他的人也都四散了。After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census and drew away people after him. He too perished, and all his followers were scattered.
38現在，我勸你們不要管這些人，他們吧！他們所謀的、所行的，若是出於人，必要敗壞；So in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone. Let them go! For if their purpose or endeavor is of human origin, it will fail.
39若是出於 神，你們就不能敗壞他們，恐怕你們倒是 神了。」But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop them. You may even find yourselves fighting against God.”
40公會的人聽從了他，便叫使徒來，把他們打了，又吩咐他們不可奉耶穌的名講道，就把他們釋放了。At this, they yielded to Gamaliel. They called the apostles in and had them flogged. Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and released them.
41他們離開公會，心裡歡喜，因被算是配為這名。The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name.
42他們就每日在殿裡、在家裡教訓人，傳耶穌是基督。Every day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they did not stop teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Christ.
