使徒行传 4
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
彼得约翰被拿
4 使徒对百姓说话的时候，祭司们和守殿官并撒都该人忽然来了。 2 因他们教训百姓，本着耶稣传说死人复活，就很烦恼， 3 于是下手拿住他们。因为天已经晚了，就把他们押到第二天。 4 但听道之人有许多信的，男丁数目约到五千。
到公会前被审
5 第二天，官府、长老和文士在耶路撒冷聚会， 6 又有大祭司亚那和该亚法、约翰、亚历山大，并大祭司的亲族都在那里， 7 叫使徒站在当中，就问他们说：“你们用什么能力，奉谁的名做这事呢？” 8 那时彼得被圣灵充满，对他们说： 9 “治民的官府和长老啊，倘若今日因为在残疾人身上所行的善事，查问我们他是怎么得了痊愈， 10 你们众人和以色列百姓都当知道：站在你们面前的这人得痊愈，是因你们所钉十字架、神叫他从死里复活的拿撒勒人耶稣基督的名。
除了耶稣别无拯救
11 “他是‘你们匠人所弃的石头，已成了房角的头块石头’。 12 除他以外，别无拯救，因为在天下人间，没有赐下别的名我们可以靠着得救。”
恐吓而放
13 他们见彼得、约翰的胆量，又看出他们原是没有学问的小民，就稀奇，认明他们是跟过耶稣的。 14 又看见那治好了的人和他们一同站着，就无话可驳。 15 于是吩咐他们从公会出去，就彼此商议说： 16 “我们当怎样办这两个人呢？因为他们诚然行了一件明显的神迹，凡住耶路撒冷的人都知道，我们也不能说没有。 17 唯恐这事越发传扬在民间，我们必须恐吓他们，叫他们不再奉这名对人讲论。” 18 于是叫了他们来，禁止他们总不可奉耶稣的名讲论、教训人。 19 彼得、约翰说：“听从你们不听从神，这在神面前合理不合理，你们自己酌量吧！ 20 我们所看见、所听见的，不能不说。” 21 官长为百姓的缘故，想不出法子刑罚他们，又恐吓一番，把他们释放了。这是因众人为所行的奇事都归荣耀于神。 22 原来借着神迹医好的那人有四十多岁了。
门徒同心祷告赞美
23 二人既被释放，就到会友那里去，把祭司长和长老所说的话都告诉他们。 24 他们听见了，就同心合意地高声向神说：“主啊，你是造天、地、海和其中万物的！ 25 你曾借着圣灵，托你仆人——我们祖宗大卫的口说：‘外邦为什么争闹？万民为什么谋算虚妄的事？ 26 世上的君王一齐起来，臣宰也聚集，要抵挡主并主的受膏者[a]。’ 27 希律和本丢·彼拉多，外邦人和以色列民，果然在这城里聚集，要攻打你所膏的圣仆[b]耶稣， 28 成就你手和你意旨所预定必有的事。 29 他们恐吓我们，现在求主鉴察，一面叫你仆人大放胆量讲你的道， 30 一面伸出你的手来医治疾病，并且使神迹奇事因着你圣仆[c]耶稣的名行出来。” 31 祷告完了，聚会的地方震动，他们就都被圣灵充满，放胆讲论神的道。
信徒财物不分彼此
32 那许多信的人都是一心一意的，没有一人说他的东西有一样是自己的，都是大家公用。 33 使徒大有能力，见证主耶稣复活，众人也都蒙大恩。 34 内中也没有一个缺乏的，因为人人将田产房屋都卖了，把所卖的价银拿来， 35 放在使徒脚前，照各人所需用的分给各人。
巴拿巴卖产捐银
36 有一个利未人，生在塞浦路斯，名叫约瑟，使徒称他为巴拿巴（“巴拿巴”翻出来就是“劝慰子”）。 37 他有田地，也卖了，把价银拿来放在使徒脚前。

Chapter 4
First Phase of the Trial: A Warning.[a] 1 While they were still speaking to the people, the priests, the captain of the temple guard,[b] and the Sadducees came over to them, 2 greatly annoyed that they were teaching and proclaiming to the people the resurrection of the dead through Jesus. 3 Therefore, they arrested them and placed them in custody until the next day, for it was already evening. 4 However, many of those who had listened to their message became believers, their total approaching five thousand.
5 On the next day, their rulers, elders, and scribes assembled in Jerusalem, 6 with Annas the high priest, Caiaphas, John,[c] Alexander, and all who belonged to the high priestly family. 7 They then brought the apostles before them and asked, “By what power or by what name have you done this?”
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders, 9 if you are interrogating us today in regard to a good deed done to someone who was crippled and how he was healed, 10 let it be known to you and to all the people of Israel that it was in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth whom you crucified, and whom God raised from the dead, that this man standing before you was cured. 11 This is
‘the stone rejected by you, the builders,
that has become the cornerstone.’
12 There is no salvation in anyone else, nor is there any other name under heaven given to men by which we can be saved.”
13 They were amazed to see the fearlessness shown by Peter and John and to discover that they were uneducated ordinary men. They recognized them as companions of Jesus, 14 but, when they saw the man who had been cured standing beside them, they could not say anything in reply. 15 They ordered them to stand outside while the Sanhedrin discussed the matter.
16 Then they said, “What are we going to do with these men? Everyone living in Jerusalem is aware that a notable sign has been worked through them, and we clearly cannot deny it. 17 But to stop the news from spreading any further among the people, let us issue them a warning never again to speak to anyone in his name.”
18 Therefore, they summoned them back and ordered them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. 19 However, Peter and John answered them, “You be the judges about whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God. 20 We cannot possibly refrain from speaking about what we have seen and heard.”
21 After threatening them once again, they released them, for they could find no way to punish them inasmuch as the people were praising God for what had happened. 22 For the man who had been miraculously healed was over forty years old.
23 The Community’s Prayer for the Apostles.[d] As soon as they were released, they went back[e] to the community and reported everything that the chief priests and the elders had said to them. 24 When they heard it, they raised their voices to God with one accord and said, “Lord, maker of heaven and earth and the sea and of everything that is in them, 25 you said by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of our ancestor David, your servant,
‘Why do the Gentiles rage
and the peoples devise futile plots?
26 The kings of the earth take their stand,
and the rulers gather together
against the Lord and against his Anointed.’
27 “Indeed, in this very city both Herod and Pontius Pilate along with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel plotted against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed, 28 to do whatever your hand and your decree had predestined to take place. 29 And now, O Lord, be aware of their threats, and grant that your servants may proclaim your word with all boldness, 30 as you stretch out your hand to heal and as signs and wonders are accomplished through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”
31 When they had finished their prayer, the place where they were gathered together shook, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and proclaimed the word of God fearlessly.
32 Life of the First Community—II.[f] The entire community of believers was united in heart and soul. No one claimed any of his possessions as his own, for everything was held in common. 33 With great power, the apostles bore witness to the resurrection[g] of the Lord Jesus, and they were all greatly respected. 34 There was never anyone among them in need, because those who were the owners of lands or houses would sell them, bring the proceeds of the sale, 35 and lay them at the feet of the apostles, to be distributed to any who were in need.
36 Barnabas.[h] One such instance involved Joseph, a Levite and a native of Cyprus, to whom the apostles gave the name Barnabas, meaning “son of encouragement.” 37 He sold a field that belonged to him and then brought the money to the apostles and laid it at their feet.
Footnotes
- Acts 4:1 The religious authorities understand very well the main points of Peter’s discourse: Jesus has been raised; therefore, he has entered the sphere of God. Christians are not healers possessed of some secret or magical art; they act and teach with an authority that does not belong to a group of people. They do it in the name of Jesus Christ. When the Jewish authorities ask Peter and John why they are still preaching in the name of Jesus even though they have been told not to do so anymore, Peter and John answer, “You be the judges about whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God. We cannot possibly refrain from speaking about what we have seen and heard.”
Concerning the name of Jesus, Peter says, “There is no salvation in anyone else, nor is there any other name under heaven given to men by which we can be saved.” This is a call to salvation. To act in the name of Jesus, or to invoke him, means that every action of God is done through Jesus. God’s role in the last times announced by Joel (3:5) is fulfilled through Jesus alone. If the Jewish authorities accept the fact that the movement of the History of Salvation lies in this new initiative of Jesus, they would signal the failure of their mandate and their institutions. As it is, they seek to escape embarrassment by cutting short the interrogation. But they cannot withstand the assurance of the apostles. - Acts 4:1 Captain of the temple guard: a priest who oversaw the activities of the police within the temple. Sadducees: a religious sect of the Jews that insisted upon human free will but denied immortality, the resurrection, and the existence of angels.
- Acts 4:6 John and Alexander: not otherwise known.
- Acts 4:23 The prayer begins with an invocation of the Creator, embracing the horizon of the world: heaven, earth, and sea. It follows the traditional practice of calling for God’s protection of his people. This community is the new people compelled to make a new Exodus; and this people needs strength from God for this departure and this journey. It is rejected by the Jews who act like the pagan nations as these are characterized by the Old Testament. The future of the people is going to be bleak if its authorities refuse to recognize the name of God’s holy Servant.
The invocation of the prayer for the apostles is made in the name of Jesus, and all the new people receive the gift of the word as at the first Pentecost, but in a situation of defense and interrogation. Such a prayer is the type of Christian prayer for times of crisis, for a community that must face an uncertain future and an unexpected road. - Acts 4:23 Went back: probably to the same Upper Room where the apostles had met (Acts 1:13) and where the community may have continued to meet (Acts 12:12).
- Acts 4:32 These verses present a view of the early Church. Luke stresses the internal bonds of the community at the moment of persecution. The picture he paints shows the voluntary sharing of material possessions, an activity connected with Jesus’ teaching on detachment and fraternal love (see Lk 8:3; 12:33; 16:9-13). The text does not say that all sold their property—only that they were prepared to do so if a member of the community was in need. The comportment of Barnabas and then that of Ananias and Sapphira demonstrate the right use of property in the Church.
- Acts 4:33 Bore witness to the resurrection: although the death of Christ was a significant event, his Resurrection was the most compelling event of his life, and the apostles could not but proclaim it.
- Acts 4:36 Barnabas is given as an example of the new understanding of property. He will soon play a chief role in the life of the Church (Acts 9:27; 11:22-30; 12:25; 13:1-15, 46; see 1 Cor 9:6; Gal 2; Col 4:10).

Petrus och Johannes arresteras
4 Medan Petrus och Johannes fortfarande talade till folket, kom prästerna, officeren vid tempelvakten och saddukeerna[a] fram till dem. 2 De var mycket upprörda över att de undervisade folket och utifrån Jesus förkunnade uppståndelsen från de döda. 3 Därför grep de Petrus och Johannes och satte dem sedan i fängelse över natten eftersom det hunnit bli kväll. 4 Men många som hade lyssnat till budskapet började tro och antalet troende hade nu stigit till omkring 5 000 män.
5 Följande dag samlades de högsta styresmännen och folkets ledare och de skriftlärda i Jerusalem.[b] 6 Översteprästen Hannas var där, liksom Kajafas, Johannes, Alexandros och alla övriga från översteprästernas släkt. 7 De lät sedan hämta Petrus och Johannes och frågade dem:
”Genom vilken kraft och i vems namn har ni gjort det här?”
8 Då fylldes Petrus av den heliga Anden och svarade dem:
”Ni styresmän och ledare för folket! 9 Om vi idag frågas ut om en god gärning mot en handikappad man och på vilket sätt han blev frisk, 10 ska både ni och alla andra i Israel veta att det är i nasarén Jesus Kristus namn som den här mannen står framför er fullständigt frisk. Ni korsfäste Jesus, men Gud uppväckte honom från de döda. 11 Han är
’den sten som inte dög åt er byggnadsarbetare
har blivit en hörnsten.[c]’
12 Räddningen finns inte hos någon annan och det finns inget annat namn bland människor under hela himlen som kan rädda oss.”
13 När de såg hur modiga Petrus och Johannes var och att de tydligen var vanliga enkla människor utan högre utbildning,[d] blev de mycket förvånade. De visste bara att dessa hade varit tillsammans med Jesus. 14 Men eftersom de kunde se mannen stå där bredvid dem fullt frisk, kunde de inget säga. 15 Därför skickade de ut dem ur rådssalen och började diskutera med varandra. 16 De sa: ”Vad ska vi göra med de här människorna? Vi kan ju inte neka till att de har gjort ett stort tecken och alla i Jerusalem känner redan till det. 17 Men vi kanske kan hindra att detta sprids ännu mer bland folket. Vi varnar dem för att i fortsättningen tala till någon mer i det namnet.”
18 Sedan kallade de in Petrus och Johannes igen och befallde dem att aldrig mer tala eller undervisa i namnet Jesus. 19 Men Petrus och Johannes svarade: ”Tänk efter själva, om det är rätt inför Gud att lyda er istället för honom? 20 Nej, vi kan inte låta bli att berätta om allt det som vi har sett och hört.”
21 Då hotade rådet dem än en gång men släppte dem sedan. De visste inte hur de skulle straffa dem för alla hyllade Gud för det som hade skett. 22 Mannen som hade blivit botad genom detta tecken var nämligen över fyrtio år gammal.
De troende ber om frimodighet
23 Så snart Petrus och Johannes blev fria, sökte de upp de sina och berättade allt vad översteprästerna och folkets ledare hade sagt. 24 Och när de andra hörde dem, började alla gemensamt ropa högt till Gud och sa:
”Herre, du som har skapat himlen och jorden och haven och allt som finns i dem![e] 25 Du lät den heliga Anden tala genom vår förfader David, din tjänare:
’Varför gör folken uppror?
Varför smider de meningslösa planer?
26 Jordens kungar reser sig;
makthavarna samlas mot Herren
och mot hans Smorde.’[f]
27 De slog sig verkligen samman i den här staden mot din heliga tjänare Jesus som du har smort. Herodes och Pontius Pilatus, de andra folken och Israels folk, 28 de har gjort vad du i din makt och med din vilja hade förutbestämt. 29 Herre, se nu hur de hotar oss! Så hjälp nu dina tjänare att frimodigt förkunna ditt budskap! 30 Visa din makt och bota de sjuka, låt tecken och under ske genom din heliga tjänare Jesus namn!”
31 När de hade slutat be, skakade platsen där de var samlade och alla fylldes av den heliga Anden och förkunnade Guds budskap frimodigt.
De troende delar allt med varandra
32 Alla de troende var enade till hjärta och själ och ingen tyckte att det han ägde var hans eget utan alla delade med sig av vad de hade. 33 Apostlarna vittnade med stor kraft om att Herren Jesus hade uppstått från de döda och Gud var mycket nådig mot dem alla. 34 Ingen av dem saknade något. Alla som ägde mark eller hus sålde det och kom med vad de fått 35 och lämnade pengarna framför apostlarna. De delades sedan ut åt var och en allt efter deras behov.
36 Josef, en levit från Cypern som apostlarna kallade Barnabas, ”Tröstens son”, 37 sålde också en åker som han ägde och lämnade pengarna framför apostlarna.

Peter and John Before the Sanhedrin
4 The priests and the captain of the temple guard(A) and the Sadducees(B) came up to Peter and John while they were speaking to the people. 2 They were greatly disturbed because the apostles were teaching the people, proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection of the dead.(C) 3 They seized Peter and John and, because it was evening, they put them in jail(D) until the next day. 4 But many who heard the message believed; so the number of men who believed grew(E) to about five thousand.
5 The next day the rulers,(F) the elders and the teachers of the law met in Jerusalem. 6 Annas the high priest was there, and so were Caiaphas,(G) John, Alexander and others of the high priest’s family. 7 They had Peter and John brought before them and began to question them: “By what power or what name did you do this?”
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit,(H) said to them: “Rulers and elders of the people!(I) 9 If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a man who was lame(J) and are being asked how he was healed, 10 then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,(K) whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead,(L) that this man stands before you healed. 11 Jesus is
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”(N)
13 When they saw the courage of Peter and John(O) and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men,(P) they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.(Q) 14 But since they could see the man who had been healed standing there with them, there was nothing they could say. 15 So they ordered them to withdraw from the Sanhedrin(R) and then conferred together. 16 “What are we going to do with these men?”(S) they asked. “Everyone living in Jerusalem knows they have performed a notable sign,(T) and we cannot deny it. 17 But to stop this thing from spreading any further among the people, we must warn them to speak no longer to anyone in this name.”
18 Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.(U) 19 But Peter and John replied, “Which is right in God’s eyes: to listen to you, or to him?(V) You be the judges! 20 As for us, we cannot help speaking(W) about what we have seen and heard.”(X)
21 After further threats they let them go. They could not decide how to punish them, because all the people(Y) were praising God(Z) for what had happened. 22 For the man who was miraculously healed was over forty years old.
The Believers Pray
23 On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them. 24 When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God.(AA) “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them.(AB) 25 You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David:(AC)
“‘Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
26 The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord
and against his anointed one.[b]’[c](AD)
27 Indeed Herod(AE) and Pontius Pilate(AF) met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus,(AG) whom you anointed. 28 They did what your power and will had decided beforehand should happen.(AH) 29 Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness.(AI) 30 Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders(AJ) through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”(AK)
31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken.(AL) And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit(AM) and spoke the word of God(AN) boldly.(AO)
The Believers Share Their Possessions
32 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had.(AP) 33 With great power the apostles continued to testify(AQ) to the resurrection(AR) of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace(AS) was so powerfully at work in them all 34 that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them,(AT) brought the money from the sales 35 and put it at the apostles’ feet,(AU) and it was distributed to anyone who had need.(AV)
36 Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas(AW) (which means “son of encouragement”), 37 sold a field he owned and brought the money and put it at the apostles’ feet.(AX)
Acts 4
King James Version
Acts 4
King James Version
4 And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,
2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.
4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.
5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,
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 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;
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 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
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 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 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
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 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 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
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 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
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 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed.
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 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 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
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 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
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 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 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 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
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 And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
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 Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
