2 dolentes quod docerent populum etannuntiarent in Iesu resurrectionem ex mortuis;	2 being grieved that they were teaching the people and announcing in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 et iniecerunt in eos manus etposuerunt in custodiam in crastinum; erat enim iam vespera.	3 And they laid hands on them, and they placed them under guard until the next day. For it was now evening.

7 et statuentes eos in mediointerrogabant: “ In qua virtute aut in quo nomine fecistis hoc vos? ”.	7 And stationing them in the middle, they questioned them: “By what power, or in whose name, have you done this?”
8 Tunc Petrus repletus Spiritu Sancto dixit ad eos: “ Principes populi etseniores,	8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: “Leaders of the people and elders, listen.
9 si nos hodie diiudicamur in benefacto hominis infirmi, in quo istesalvus factus est,	9 If we today are judged by a good deed done to an infirm man, by which he has been made whole,
10 notum sit omnibus vobis et omni plebi Israel quia innomine Iesu Christi Nazareni, quem vos crucifixistis, quem Deus suscitavit amortuis, in hoc iste astat coram vobis sanus.	10 let it be known to all of you and to all of the people of Israel, that in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God has raised from the dead, by him, this man stands before you, healthy.
11 Hic est lapis, qui reprobatus est a vobis aedificatoribus, qui factus est in caput anguli.	11 He is the stone, which was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.
12 Et non est in alio aliquo salus, nec enim nomen aliud est sub caelo datum inhominibus, in quo oportet nos salvos fieri ”.	12 And there is no salvation in any other. For there is no other name under heaven given to men, by which it is necessary for us to be saved.”
13 Videntes autem Petri fiduciam et Ioannis, et comperto quod homines essentsine litteris et idiotae, admirabantur et cognoscebant eos quoniam cum Iesufuerant;	13 Then, seeing the constancy of Peter and John, having verified that they were men without letters or learning, they wondered. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus.
14 hominem quoque videntes stantem cum eis, qui curatus fuerat, nihilpoterant contradicere.	14 Also, seeing the man who had been cured standing with them, they were unable to say anything to contradict them.
15 Iubentes autem eos foras extra concilium secedere,conferebant ad invicem	15 But they ordered them to withdraw outside, away from the council, and they conferred among themselves,
16 dicentes: “ Quid faciemus hominibus istis? Quoniamquidem notum signum factum est per eos omnibus habitantibus in Ierusalemmanifestum, et non possumus negare;	16 saying: “What shall we do to these men? For certainly a public sign has been done through them, before all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. It is manifest, and we cannot deny it.
17 sed ne amplius divulgetur in populum,comminemur eis, ne ultra loquantur in nomine hoc ulli hominum ”.	17 But lest it spread further among the people, let us threaten them not to speak anymore in this name to any man.”
18 Etvocantes eos denuntiaverunt, ne omnino loquerentur neque docerent in nomineIesu.	18 And calling them in, they warned them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.
19 Petrus vero et Ioannes respondentes dixerunt ad eos: “ Si iustum estin conspectu Dei vos potius audire quam Deum, iudicate;	19 Yet truly, Peter and John said in response to them: “Judge whether it is just in the sight of God to listen to you, rather than to God.
20 non enim possumusnos, quae vidimus et audivimus, non loqui ”.	20 For we are unable to refrain from speaking the things that we have seen and heard.”
21 At illi ultra comminantesdimiserunt eos, nequaquam invenientes, quomodo punirent eos, propter populum,quia omnes glorificabant Deum in eo, quod acciderat;	21 But they, threatening them, sent them away, having not found a way that they might punish them because of the people. For all were glorifying the things that had been done in these events.

26 Astiterunt reges terrae, et principes convenerunt in unum adversus Dominum et adversus Christum eius”.	26 The kings of the earth have stood up, and the leaders have joined together as one, against the Lord and against his Christ.’
27 Convenerunt enim vere in civitate ista adversus sanctum puerum tuum Iesum,quem unxisti, Herodes et Pontius Pilatus cum gentibus et populis Israel	27 For truly Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, joined together in this city against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed
28 facere, quaecumque manus tua et consilium praedestinavit fieri.	28 to do what your hand and your counsel had decreed would be done.
29 Et nunc,Domine, respice in minas eorum et da servis tuis cum omni fiducia loqui verbumtuum,	29 And now, O Lord, look upon their threats, and grant to your servants that they may speak your word with all confidence,

Neither did anyone say that any of the things that he possessed were his own, but all things were common to them.
