Acts of the Apostles 5

DOUAI-RHEIMS	NOVA VULGATA
1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Saphira his wife, sold a piece of land,	1 Vir autem quidam nomine Ananias cum Sapphira uxore sua vendidit agrum
2 And by fraud kept back part of the price of the land, his wife being privy thereunto: and bringing a certain part of it, laid it at the feet of the apostles.	2 et subtraxit de pretio, conscia quoque uxore, et afferens partem quandam adpedes apostolorum posuit.
3 But Peter said: Ananias, why hath Satan tempted thy heart, that thou shouldst lie to the Holy Ghost, and by fraud keep part of the price of the land?	3 Dixit autem Petrus: “ Anania, cur implevit Satanascor tuum mentiri te Spiritui Sancto et subtrahere de pretio agri?
4 Whilst it remained, did it not remain to thee? and after it was sold, was it not in thy power? Why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart? Thou hast not lied to men, but to God.	4 Nonne manenstibi manebat et venumdatum in tua erat potestate? Quare posuisti in corde tuohanc rem? Non es mentitus hominibus sed Deo! ”.
5 And Ananias hearing these words, fell down, and gave up the ghost. And there came great fear upon all that heard it.	5 Audiens autem Ananias haecverba cecidit et exspiravit; et factus est timor magnus in omnes audientes.
6 And the young men rising up, removed him, and carrying him out, buried him.	6 Surgentes autem iuvenes involverunt eum et efferentes sepelierunt.
7 And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.	7 Factum est autem quasi horarum trium spatium, et uxor ipsius nesciens, quodfactum fuerat, introivit.
8 And Peter said to her: Tell me, woman, whether you sold the land for so much? And she said: Yea, for so much.	8 Respondit autem ei Petrus: “ Dic mihi, si tantiagrum vendidistis? ”. At illa dixit: “ Etiam, tanti ”.
9 And Peter said unto her: Why have you agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold the feet of them who have buried thy husband are at the door, and they shall carry thee out.	9 Petrus autem adeam: “ Quid est quod convenit vobis tentare Spiritum Domini? Ecce pedes eorum,qui sepelierunt virum tuum, ad ostium, et efferent te ”.
10 Immediately she fell down before his feet, and gave up the ghost. And the young men coming in, found her dead: and carried her out, and buried her by her husband.	10 Confestim ceciditante pedes eius et exspiravit; intrantes autem iuvenes invenerunt illam mortuamet efferentes sepelierunt ad virum suum.
11 And there came great fear upon the whole church, and upon all that heard these things.	11 Et factus est timor magnus superuniversam ecclesiam et in omnes, qui audierunt haec.
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.	12 Per manus autem apostolorum fiebant signa et prodigia multa in plebe; eterant unanimiter omnes in porticu Salomonis.
13 But of the rest no man durst join himself unto them; but the people magnified them.	13 Ceterorum autem nemo audebatconiungere se illis, sed magnificabat eos populus;
14 And the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord, was more increased:	14 magis autem addebanturcredentes Domino multitudines virorum ac mulierum,
15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that when Peter came, his shadow at the least, might overshadow any of them, and they might be delivered from their infirmities.	15 ita ut et in plateasefferrent infirmos et ponerent in lectulis et grabatis, ut, veniente Petro,saltem umbra illius obumbraret quemquam eorum.
16 And there came also together to Jerusalem a multitude out of the neighboring cities, bringing sick persons, and such as were troubled with unclean spirits; who were all healed.	16 Concurrebat autem et multitudovicinarum civitatum Ierusalem, afferentes aegros et vexatos ab spiritibusimmundis, qui curabantur omnes.
17 Then the high prist rising up, and all they that were with him, (which is the heresy of the Sadducees,) were filled with envy.	17 Exsurgens autem princeps sacerdotum et omnes, qui cum illo erant, quae esthaeresis sadducaeorum, repleti sunt zelo
18 And they laid hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.	18 et iniecerunt manus in apostolos etposuerunt illos in custodia publica.
19 But an angel of the Lord by night opening the doors of the prison, and leading them out, said:	19 Angelus autem Domini per noctem aperuitianuas carceris et educens eos dixit:
20 Go, and standing speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.	20 “ Ite et stantes loquimini in temploplebi omnia verba vitae huius ”.
21 Who having heard this, early in the morning, entered into the temple, and taught. And the high priest coming, and they that were with him, called together the council, and all the ancients of the children of Israel; and they sent to the prison to have them brought.	21 Qui cum audissent, intraverunt diluculo intemplum et docebant. Adveniens autem princeps sacerdotum et, qui cum eo erant, convocaveruntconcilium et omnes seniores filiorum Israel et miserunt in carcerem, utadducerentur illi.
22 But when the ministers came, and opening the prison, found them not there, they returned and told,	22 Cum venissent autem ministri, non invenerunt illos incarcere; reversi autem nuntiaverunt
23 Saying: The prison indeed we found shut with all diligence, and the keepers standing before the doors; but opening it, we found no man within.	23 dicentes: “ Carcerem invenimus clausumcum omni diligentia et custodes stantes ad ianuas; aperientes autem intusneminem invenimus! ”.
24 Now when the officer of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were in doubt concerning them, what would come to pass.	24 Ut audierunt autem hos sermones, magistratus templiet principes sacerdotum ambigebant de illis quidnam fieret illud.
25 But one came and told them: Behold, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple standing, and teaching the people.	25 Adveniensautem quidam nuntiavit eis: “ Ecce viri, quos posuistis in carcere, sunt intemplo stantes et docentes populum ”.
26 Then went the officer with the ministers, and brought them without violence; for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.	26 Tunc abiens magistratus cum ministris adducebat illos, non per vim; timebantenim populum, ne lapidarentur.
27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest asked them,	27 Et cum adduxissent illos, statuerunt inconcilio. Et interrogavit eos princeps sacerdotum
28 Saying: Commanding we commanded you, that you should not teach in this name; and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you have a mind to bring the blood of this man upon us.	28 dicens: “ Nonnepraecipiendo praecepimus vobis, ne doceretis in nomine isto? Et ecce replevistisIerusalem doctrina vestra et vultis inducere super nos sanguinem hominis istius”.
29 But Peter and the apostles answering, said: We ought to obey God, rather than men.	29 Respondens autem Petrus et apostoli dixerunt: “ Oboedire oportet Deomagis quam hominibus.
30 The God of our fathers hath raised up Jesus, whom you put to death, hanging him upon a tree.	30 Deus patrum nostrorum suscitavit Iesum, quem vosinteremistis suspendentes in ligno;
31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand, to be Prince and Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and remission of sins.	31 hunc Deus Ducem et Salvatorem exaltavitdextera sua ad dandam paenitentiam Israel et remissionem peccatorum.
32 And we are witnesses of these things and the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to all that obey him.	32 Et nossumus testes horum verborum, et Spiritus Sanctus, quem dedit Deus oboedientibussibi ”.
33 When they had heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they thought to put them to death.	33 Haec cum audissent, dissecabantur et volebant interficere illos.
34 But one in the council rising up, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, respected by all the people, commanded the men to be put forth a little while.	34 Surgens autem quidam in concilio pharisaeus nomine Gamaliel, legis doctorhonorabilis universae plebi, iussit foras ad breve homines fieri
35 And he said to them: Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do, as touching these men.	35 dixitque adillos: “ Viri Israelitae, attendite vobis super hominibus istis quid acturisitis.
36 For before these days rose up Theodas, affirming himself to be somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all that believed him were scattered, and brought to nothing.	36 Ante hos enim dies exstitit Theudas dicens esse se aliquem, cuiconsensit virorum numerus circiter quadringentorum; qui occisus est, et omnes,quicumque credebant ei, dissipati sunt et redacti sunt ad nihilum.
37 After this man, rose up Judas of Galilee, in the days of the enrolling, and drew away the people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as consented to him, were dispersed.	37 Post huncexstitit Iudas Galilaeus in diebus census et avertit populum post se; et ipseperiit, et omnes, quotquot consentiebant ei, dispersi sunt.
38 And now, therefore, I say to you, refrain from these men, and let them alone; for if this council or this work be of men, it will come to nought;	38 Et nunc dicovobis: Discedite ab hominibus istis et sinite illos. Quoniam si est ex hominibusconsilium hoc aut opus hoc, dissolvetur;
39 But if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it, lest perhaps you be found even to fight against God. And they consented to him.	39 si vero ex Deo est, non poteritisdissolvere eos, ne forte et adversus Deum pugnantes inveniamini! ”. Consenserunt autem illi
40 And calling in the apostles, after they had scourged them, they charged them that they should not speak at all in the name of Jesus; and they dismissed them.	40 et convocantes apostolos, caesis denuntiaverunt, neloquerentur in nomine Iesu, et dimiserunt eos.
41 And they indeed went from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were accounted worthy to suffer reproach for the name of Jesus.	41 Et illi quidem ibant gaudentesa conspectu concilii, quoniam digni habiti sunt pro nomine contumeliam pati;
42 And every day they ceased not in the temple, and from house to house, to teach and preach Christ Jesus.	42 et omni die in templo et circa domos non cessabant docentes et evangelizantesChristum, Iesum.
