Atos dos Apóstolos 4

SAGRADA BIBLIA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Enquanto eles falavam ao povo, vieram os sacerdotes, o chefe do templo e os saduceus,	1 And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,
2 contrariados porque ensinavam ao povo e anunciavam, na pessoa de Jesus, a ressurreição dos mortos.	2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 Prenderam-nos e os meteram no cárcere até o outro dia, pois já era tarde.	3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.
4 Muitos, porém, dos que tinham ouvido a pregação creram; e o número dos fiéis elevou-se a mais ou menos cinco mil.	4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.
5 No dia seguinte reuniram-se em Jerusalém os chefes do povo, os anciãos, os escribas,	5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,
6 com Anás, sumo sacerdote, Caifás, João, Alexandre e todos os que eram da linhagem pontifical.	6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.
7 Colocando-os no meio, perguntaram: Com que poder ou em que nome fizestes isso?	7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?
8 Então Pedro, cheio do Espírito Santo, respondeu-lhes: Chefes do povo e anciãos, ouvi-me:	8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
9 se hoje somos interrogados a respeito do benefício feito a um enfermo, e em que nome foi ele curado,	9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;
10 ficai sabendo todos vós e todo o povo de Israel: foi em nome de Jesus Cristo Nazareno, que vós crucificastes, mas que Deus ressuscitou dos mortos. Por ele é que esse homem se acha são, em pé, diante de vós.	10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11 Esse Jesus, pedra que foi desprezada por vós, edificadores, tornou-se a pedra angular.	11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12 Em nenhum outro há salvação, porque debaixo do céu nenhum outro nome foi dado aos homens, pelo qual devamos ser salvos.	12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
13 Vendo eles a coragem de Pedro e de João, e considerando que eram homens sem estudo e sem instrução, admiravam-se. Reconheciam-nos como companheiros de Jesus.	13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
14 Mas vendo com eles o homem que tinha sido curado, não puderam replicar.	14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 Mandaram que se retirassem da sala do conselho, e conferenciaram entre si:	15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 Que faremos destes homens? Porquanto o milagre por eles feito se tornou conhecido de todos os habitantes de Jerusalém, e não o podemos negar.	16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.
17 Todavia, para que esta notícia não se divulgue mais entre o povo, proibamos com ameaças, que no futuro falem a alguém nesse nome.	17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
18 Chamaram-nos e ordenaram-lhes que absolutamente não falassem nem ensinassem em nome de Jesus.	18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 Responderam-lhes Pedro e João: Julgai-o vós mesmos se é justo diante de Deus obedecermos a vós mais do que a Deus.	19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.
20 Não podemos deixar de falar das coisas que temos visto e ouvido.	20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
21 Eles então, ameaçando-os de novo, soltaram-nos, não achando pretexto para os castigar por causa do povo, porque todos glorificavam a Deus pelo que tinha acontecido.	21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done.
22 Pois já passava dos 40 anos o homem em quem se realizara essa cura milagrosa.	22 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed.
23 Postos em liberdade, voltaram aos seus irmãos e referiram tudo quanto lhes tinham dito os sumos sacerdotes e os anciãos.	23 And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.
24 Ao ouvirem isso, levantaram unânimes a voz a Deus e disseram: Senhor, vós que fizestes o céu, a terra, o mar e tudo o que neles há.	24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
25 Vós que, pelo Espírito Santo, pela boca de nosso pai Davi, vosso servo, dissestes: Por que se agitam as nações, e imaginam os povos coisas vãs?	25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
26 Levantam-se os reis da terra, e os príncipes se reúnem em conselho contra o Senhor e contra o seu Cristo {Sl 2,1s.}.	26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27 Pois na verdade se uniram nesta cidade contra o vosso santo servo Jesus, que ungistes, Herodes e Pôncio Pilatos com as nações e com o povo de Israel,	27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,
28 para executarem o que a vossa mão e o vosso conselho predeterminaram que se fizesse.	28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
29 Agora, pois, Senhor, olhai para as suas ameaças e concedei aos vossos servos que com todo o desassombro anunciem a vossa palavra.	29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
30 Estendei a vossa mão para que se realizem curas, milagres e prodígios pelo nome de Jesus, vosso santo servo!	30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
31 Mal acabavam de rezar, tremeu o lugar onde estavam reunidos. E todos ficaram cheios do Espírito Santo e anunciaram com intrepidez a palavra de Deus.	31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
32 A multidão dos fiéis era um só coração e uma só alma. Ninguém dizia que eram suas as coisas que possuía, mas tudo entre eles era comum.	32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
33 Com grande coragem os apóstolos davam testemunho da ressurreição do Senhor Jesus. Em todos eles era grande a graça.	33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
34 Nem havia entre eles nenhum necessitado, porque todos os que possuíam terras e casas vendiam-nas,	34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
35 e traziam o preço do que tinham vendido e depositavam-no aos pés dos apóstolos. Repartia-se então a cada um deles conforme a sua necessidade.	35 And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
36 Assim José {a quem os apóstolos deram o sobrenome de Barnabé que quer dizer Filho da Consolação}, levita natural de Chipre, possuía um campo.	36 And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus,
37 Vendeu-o e trouxe o valor dele e depositou aos pés dos apóstolos.	37 Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
