使 徒 行 傳 5
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
亚拿尼亚和撒非喇
5 一个名叫亚拿尼亚的人和他的妻子撒非喇也卖掉一些田产。 2 他私自留下一部分钱，只把剩下的放在了使徒的脚边。这事他妻子也知道。 3 彼得说∶“亚拿尼亚，你为什么要让撒旦占据你的心，而对圣灵说谎，藏起了一部分卖田的钱呢？ 4 你卖地之前，难道那块地不是属于你的吗？你卖地后，难道那笔钱不是任你支配的吗？你怎么会想出这个主意来的呢？你不是对人说谎，而是在对上帝说谎。” 5 亚拿尼亚听到这里，便一头栽倒在地死了。所有听到这事的人都充满了恐惧。 6 年轻男子走上去，把他的尸体裹了起来，抬出去埋了。
7 过了三个小时左右，亚拿尼亚的妻子走了进来，她并不知道所发生的事情。 8 彼得问她道∶“告诉我，你们卖地的钱就这些吗？”
撒非喇答道∶“对，就是这些。”
9 听罢，彼得对她说∶“你们俩为什么打定主意要试探主的灵呢？看，那些埋葬了你丈夫的人，正站在门口，他们也会把你给抬出去的。” 10 话音刚落，她便栽倒在了彼得的脚旁，死掉了。那些人进来发现他死了，便把她也抬了出去，埋在了她丈夫的旁边。 11 整个教会的人们，以及所有听说了这件事的人都充满了敬畏。
来自上帝的证明
12 通过使徒之手，许多奇事和神迹在人们中间得以发生。使徒们都聚在“所罗门廊”下， 13 但是外人都不敢加入他们，尽管所有的人都称颂他们。 14 越来越多的人信仰了主，有许多男女加入到信徒的行列。 15 大家把他们的病人都抬到大街上，让他们躺在床上或者垫子上，以便当彼得走过时，至少让他的身影落在一些病人身上。 16 从耶路撒冷附近城镇来的人群，带来了他们的病人和那些受到邪灵折磨的人，这些人的病全都被治好了。
使徒被捕
17 因此，大祭司 [a]和他的同僚们，也就是撒都该党徒们，都非常嫉妒。 18 他们便逮捕了使徒，把他们投进了监狱。 19 可是，夜里，主的一个天使打开了狱门，把他们领了出来，并对他们说： 20 “去站在大殿院子里，告诉人们关于这新生命的全部事情。” 21 使徒们听从了这话，在黎明时分，进了大殿院，开始教导人们。
大祭司和他的同僚们来了，他们召集起议会和所有的以色列的长老，并派人去监狱里带使徒们。 22 但是，当那些人来到监狱时，却发现使徒们不在里面了。他们便返回去报告， 23 说∶“我们发现牢门牢牢地锁着，卫兵也守在门外，可是打开一看，里面一个人也没有。” 24 大殿的警卫队长和祭司长听到这些，都觉得十分纳闷，不知道发生了什么事， 25 这时，有个人进来告诉他们说∶“你们关进监狱里的那些人正站在大殿院里教唆人们呢！” 26 警卫队长便带着手下的人，又把那些使徒们抓了回来。他们没有动用暴力，因为他们害怕在场的人们会用石头砸他们。
27 他们把使徒带了进来，让他们站在全议会人的面前，大祭司质问他们∶ 28 “我们已严厉的禁止过，不许你们再以这个人的名义教导。可是你们的教导还是充满了耶路撒冷，并且要把这个人的死归罪于我们！”
29 彼得和其他的使徒们答道∶“我们必须服从上帝，而不是服从人。 30 耶稣被你们吊死在十字架上，而我们祖先的上帝却使耶稣从死亡中复活。 31 上帝把他做为王子和救世主升到了自己的右侧，以便让他给以色列人悔过自新和得到宽恕的机会。 32 我们是这一切的见证人，上帝赋予服从他的人的圣灵，也是这一切的见证！”
33 议会的人听到这里，都勃然大怒起来。他们想把使徒 [b]们杀了。 34 但是，议会里有一个法利赛人，名字叫迦玛列，是一位受所有人尊敬的律法师。他下令让人们把使徒们带出去一会儿， 35 然后对其他人说∶“我的同胞以色列人啊，你们计划如何去处置这些人，必须慎重。 36 记得曾出现过丢大吧？他自命不凡，大约有四百男子加入了他，他被杀掉了，他的跟随者都被驱散了，没折腾出什么结果来。 37 在他之后，到了人口普查的时候，又出现了加利利人犹大，他引诱一些人跟随自己，他也被杀了，他的随从也被驱散了。 38 因此，关于目前这个案子，我告诉你们，不要管这些人，由他们去吧，因为，他们的计划或活动，如果是源于人，他们必要失败； 39 但是，如果它源于上帝，你们就无法阻止他们，并且甚至会有可能发现自己在与上帝做对。
他们听取了他的意见， 40 于是把使徒们叫了进来，下令打了他们一顿，并发布命令不许他们再以耶稣的名义传道，然后便把他们放了。 41 使徒们非常高兴地离开了议会，因为他们被认为配得上为了耶稣的名字受耻辱。 42 日复一日，无论是在大殿院里还是在人们家里，他们从末停止过教导人们和宣讲耶稣是基督 [c]的福音。

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
欺騙聖靈
5 一個名叫亞拿尼亞的人與妻子撒非喇也把田產賣了。 2 他私自留下一部分錢，然後把其餘的拿去交給使徒，這件事他妻子也知道。 3 彼得說：「亞拿尼亞，你為什麼讓撒旦充滿你的心，欺騙聖靈，私自留下一些賣地的錢呢？ 4 田產沒有賣的時候屬於你，即使賣了，賣地的錢也由你支配。你怎麼做出這種事呢？你不是欺騙人，你是欺騙上帝！」 5 亞拿尼亞聽見這話，當場倒地而死。聽見這件事的人都非常懼怕。 6 有幾個青年上前把他的屍體裹起來，抬出去埋葬了。
7 大約過了三個小時，亞拿尼亞的妻子也進來了，她還不知道發生了什麼事。 8 彼得問她：「你們賣田地的錢就這麼多嗎？」她說：「是的，就這麼多。」
9 彼得說：「你們二人怎麼串通起來試探主的靈呢？埋葬你丈夫的人就到門口了，他們也要把你抬出去。」 10 撒非喇立刻倒在彼得腳前死了。那些青年進來看見她已經死了，便把她抬出去葬在她丈夫的旁邊。 11 整個教會和聽見這件事的人都非常懼怕。
神蹟奇事
12 主藉著使徒們在百姓中行了許多神蹟奇事，大家同心合意地在所羅門廊那裡聚會。 13 其他人不敢接近他們，不過百姓都很敬重他們。 14 信主的人數不斷增加，男女都有。 15 人們甚至把病人抬到街上，放在床上或墊子上，希望彼得路過時的影子可以落在病人身上。 16 還有大群的人從耶路撒冷附近的城鎮帶著病人和被污鬼攪擾的人趕來，他們都得了醫治。
使徒受迫害
17 大祭司和他的同黨撒都該人看見這情形，妒火中燒， 18 便把使徒拘捕，關在監裡。 19 當天晚上，有一位主的天使把獄門打開，領他們出來， 20 說：「你們到聖殿去，把這生命之道傳給百姓。」 21 使徒遵從命令，在黎明的時候來到聖殿開始教導眾人。
大祭司和他的同黨召集了所有公會[a]的人和以色列的眾長老，然後派人去監獄把使徒押來受審。 22 差役來到監獄時，發現使徒已經不見了，就回去稟告，說： 23 「我們看見牢門緊鎖，守衛都站在門外，但打開門一看，裡面卻空無一人！」
24 聖殿護衛長和祭司長聽後，都很困擾，不知道是怎麼回事。 25 這時有人來報告說：「你們關押在牢裡的人正在聖殿裡教導人！」 26 聖殿護衛長和差役再去把使徒抓回來。這次他們不敢動粗，生怕百姓會用石頭打他們。
27 使徒被帶來後站在公會前，大祭司盤問他們，說： 28 「我們不是嚴禁你們奉耶穌的名去教導百姓嗎？你們竟然在耶路撒冷各處傳道，還想把殺那人的血債歸到我們身上！」
29 彼得和其他使徒申辯說：「我們要服從的是上帝，而非人。 30 你們釘死在十字架上的耶穌，我們祖先的上帝已經使祂復活了。 31 上帝把祂提升到自己的右邊，立祂為君王和救主，好賜給以色列人悔改的機會，使他們的罪得到赦免。 32 我們就是這些事的見證人，上帝賜給順服祂之人的聖靈也同樣做見證。」
33 他們聽了，怒氣衝天，打算殺掉使徒。 34 公會中有一位名叫迦瑪列的法利賽人，是個德高望重的律法教師。他站起來，叫人把使徒暫且押到外面， 35 然後說：「以色列人啊，你們應當慎重處置這些人。 36 不久前，有個名叫杜達的人起來自立山頭，吸引了差不多四百個跟隨者，但他被殺之後，那些跟隨者就各奔東西，銷聲匿跡了。 37 後來，又有個加利利人猶大在戶口登記期間鼓動百姓跟隨他造反。他被殺之後，那些跟隨者也煙消雲散了。 38 所以，像現在這種情形，我勸大家還是不要管他們，隨他們去吧。他們的計劃和行為如果是出於人意，終必失敗； 39 但如果是出於上帝，你們不但無法阻止他們，恐怕反而是在抵擋上帝！」
40 公會採納了他的意見，於是把使徒召回來打了一頓，再次警告他們不可奉耶穌的名傳道，才放了他們。 41 使徒離開公會後，為自己有資格為主的名受辱而歡喜。 42 他們每天在聖殿裡和各家各戶教導人，傳揚耶穌是基督。

5 And a certain man by the name Chananyah, with his wife Shappira, sold property
2 And he, with his wife in collusion as to da’as, misappropriated from the price, and having brought a certain part, laid it at the feet of the Moshiach’s Shlichim. [YEHOSHUA 7:11]
3 But Kefa said, "Chananyah, why has Hasatan filled your lev (heart) that you lied to the Ruach Hakodesh and misappropriated from the price of the land? [DEVARIM 23:21]
4 "While it remained with you, did it not remain yours? And after it was sold, were the proceeds not under your samchut (authority)? How is it that you have hatched this deed in your lev (heart)? Your sheker (lie) was not to Bnei Adam but to the Ruach Hakodesh." [DEVARIM 23:22; VAYIKRA 6:2]
5 And hearing these dvarim, having fallen down, Chananyah died; and there came great yirat Shomayim upon all the ones listening. [TEHILLIM 5:6]
6 And having got up, the bochrim threw the tachrichin shroud over him and, having carried him out, they buried him in a kever.
7 And there was an interval of lav davka (approximately) shloshah sha’ot and then his isha, not having da’as of what had happened, entered.
8 And in reply to her, Kefa said "Tell me, you sold the sadeh for such and such a price, did you?" And she said, "Ken, for such and such a price, that was the amount."
9 And Kefa said to her, "Why was it agreed by the two of you to put the Ruach Hakodesh of Hashem to the test? Hinei! The feet of the ones having buried your ba’al are at the petach (doorway), and they will carry you out."
10 And she fell immediately at his feet and died. And, the bochrim, having entered, found her dead; and, having carried her out, they buried her with her ba’al.
11 And there came great yirat Shomayim upon the whole Messianic kehillah and upon all the ones hearing these things.
12 Now by the hands of the Moshiach’s Shlichim were being effected many otot and moftim among the people and with a sense of achdus they were all in the Ulam Sh’lomo.
13 But none of the rest was daring to be mishtatef in a chavura (becoming involved, joining a fellowship) with them; however, the Am Yisroel held the Messianic Jews in high esteem.
14 And more and more ma’aminim hameshichiyim in Adoneinu were being added, multitudes of anashim and nashim,
15 So much so that even out into the rekhovot they would carry the cholim and put them on pallets and mats, that when Kefa came by, at least his shadow might fall upon some of them.
16 And also the multitudes from the shtetlach surrounding Yerushalayim were coming together, carrying the cholim and the ones being tormented by ruchot teme’ot (unclean spirits); and they were all receiving refu’ah shleimah.
17 But there was an uprising of the Kohen Gadol and all the ones with him of the Tzedukim kat, and they were filled with kinah.
18 And they laid their hands upon the Moshiach’s Shlichim and they put them in a public beis hasohar.
19 And a malach Adonoi (an angel of Hashem) opened the doors of the beis hasohar balailah, and having led them out, said, [BERESHIS 16:7; SHEMOT 3:2; TEHILLIM 34:7]
20 "Go and stand and speak in the Beis Hamikdash to the people kol divrei HaChayyim haelleh."
21 And having heard, the Moshiach’s Shlichim entered the Beis Hamikdash at Shachrit and were saying shiurim. And when the Kohen Gadol and the ones with him had come, they called together the Sanhedrin and all the assembly of Zekenim of the Bnei Yisroel, and they sent to the beis hasohar for the prisoners to be brought to them.
22 But their mesharetim, having come, did not find them in the beis hasohar. And having returned, they reported these things
23 Saying, "We found the beis hasohar locked tight and the shomrim standing at the doors; but when we opened up, we found no one inside."
24 And when the Sar Tzeva HaHeikhal of the Beis Hamikdash and the Rashei Hakohanim heard these words, they were perplexed about them, as far as what would come of all this.
25 But someone came and reported to them, "Hinei, the men whom you put in the beis hasohar are in the Beis Hamikdash standing and saying shiurim to the people."
26 Then the Sar Tzeva HaHeikhal went along with the mesharetim and brought the Moshiach’s Shlichim back, but not with force—for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.
27 And when they had brought them, they stood the Moshiach’s Shlichim before the Sanhedrin, and the Kohen Gadol questioned them,
28 Saying, "Did we not with a strict command charge you not to say shiurim b’shem hazeh and, hinei, you have filled Yerushalayim with your torah and are determined to bring upon us the dahm of this man."
29 And in reply Kefa and the Moshiach’s Shlichim said, "It is necessary to obey Hashem rather than Bnei Adam. [SHEMOT 1:17]
30 "Elohei Avoteinu made Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua to stand up alive again, the very one whom you killed, having made him talui al haEtz (being hanged on the tree). [DEVARIM 21:23]
31 "This one Hashem exalted as Sar and Moshi’a (Oisleizer) to His right hand to grant teshuva to Yisroel and selicha (forgiveness) of chatta’im (averos, sins).
32 "And we are the eidus (witness) of these matters and so is the Ruach Hakodesh whom Hashem gave to the ones obeying Him."
33 And the ones having heard were cut to the quick and in fury were deciding to do away with them.
34 But a certain Parush got up in the Sanhedrin, a moreh of Torah by name Rabban Gamli’el, respected by kol Am Yisroel, and he gave orders to put the men outside for a little while.
35 And Rabban Gamli’el said to them, "Anshei Yisroel, pay attention to yourselves what you are about to do with these anashim.
36 "For at an earlier tekufa (era, period), there was the uprising of Theudas, who claimed to be somebody himself, with whom were associated a number of anashim lav davka (approximately) four hundred; who was done away with and as many as were obeying him were all dispersed and it came to nothing.
37 "After this there was Yehudah HaGelili in the yamim of the census; who misled the people to follow after him and that man perished and, as many as were obeying him, were all scattered.
38 "And now I say to you, stay away from these anashim, and leave them alone, because if this cheshbon (plan) or this matter is of Bnei Adam, it will be overthrown.
39 "But if it is from Hashem, you are not able to overthrow them—in that case you may even be found to be fighting keneged (against, opposing) Hashem." And they were persuaded by Rabban Gamli’el. [2Ch 13:12; Prov 21:30; Isa 46:10]
40 And having called together the Moshiach’s Shluchim and having flogged them, they warned them not to speak in the shem of Yehoshua, and they released them.
41 Therefore Moshiach’s Shluchim were going rejoicing from the presence of the Sanhedrin, that they were considered worthy to suffer shame for ha-Shem (the Name).
42 And every day in the Beis Hamikdash and from bais to bais they did not stop saying shiurim and drashot about Yehoshua as Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
