A-na-nia Và Sa-phi-ra
5 Nhưng có một người tên A-na-nia cùng vợ là Sa-phi-ra bán một tài sản, 2 giữ lại một phần tiền thu được, rồi đem số tiền còn lại đặt nơi chân các sứ đồ. (Người vợ cũng biết rõ việc này.)
3 Phê-rơ hỏi: “Ông A-na-nia, sao Sa-tan đã đầy dẫy lòng ông đến nỗi ông nói dối với Đức Thánh Linh mà giữ lại một phần tiền bán đất như thế? 4 Trước khi bán, tài sản ấy không thuộc quyền sở hữu của ông sao? Sau khi bán rồi, tiền đó vẫn thuộc quyền sử dụng của ông kia mà? Tại sao ông chủ tâm hành động như thế? Không phải ông dối người đâu mà dối Đức Chúa Trời đó!”
5 Nghe các lời đó, A-na-nia ngã xuống, tắt thở. Tất cả những ai nghe tin đều khiếp sợ. 6 Nhưng các thanh niên đứng dậy liệm xác A-na-nia và khiêng đi chôn.
7 Độ ba giờ sau, vợ A-na-nia bước vào, nhưng vẫn chưa biết việc mới xảy ra. 8 Phê-rơ hỏi bà: “Bà bán đất được bao nhiêu đó, phải không? Xin bà cho biết!” Bà đáp: “Vâng, chỉ được chừng ấy thôi!”
9 Phê-rơ nói: “Tại sao ông bà đồng mưu thử Đức Thánh Linh của Chúa? Kìa chân của những kẻ chôn chồng bà đã về tới cửa, họ sẽ khiêng bà đi luôn!”
10 Lập tức, bà ngã xuống nơi chân Phê-rơ, tắt thở. Các thanh niên bước vào, thấy bà đã chết, nên họ khiêng đi chôn bên cạnh mộ chồng bà. 11 Toàn thể Hội Thánh và tất cả những ai nghe tin này đều rất khiếp sợ.
12 Chúa dùng tay các sứ đồ thực hiện nhiều dấu lạ và phép mầu giữa dân chúng. Tất cả các tín hữu đồng tâm hội họp tại hành lang Sa-lô-môn. 13 Nhưng người ngoài không ai dám tham dự, mặc dù các tín hữu đều được dân chúng ca ngợi. 14 Và số người tin nhận Chúa ngày càng gia tăng đông đảo gồm cả nam lẫn nữ, 15 đến nỗi người ta đem những người bệnh ra ngoài đường phố, đặt trên giường chõng, để khi Phê-rơ đi qua, ít ra bóng ông cũng ngả trên một vài người. 16 Dân chúng các thành phố quanh Giê-ru-sa-lem cũng họp nhau khiêng những người bệnh và những người bị các tà linh hành hạ, và tất cả đều được chữa lành.
17 Lúc ấy, vị trưởng tế và tất cả các bạn đồng sự thuộc phái Sa-đu-sê, đều đầy lòng ganh tị, đứng lên 18 bắt các sứ đồ tống giam vào khám công. 19 Nhưng ban đêm một thiên sứ của Chúa mở các cửa khám, dẫn họ ra ngoài và bảo: 20 “Các ông hãy đi vào đền thờ, đứng đó rao truyền cho dân chúng tất cả những lời của sự sống!”
21 Nghe theo lời dặn bảo, các sứ đồ vào trong đền thờ lúc trời mới rạng đông, bắt đầu dạy dân chúng. Khi vị trưởng tế và các bạn đồng sự đến, họ liền triệu tập Hội Đồng và toàn thể viện trưởng lão Y-sơ-ra-ên, rồi sai người vào khám giải các sứ đồ đến. 22 Tuy nhiên, khi vào trong khám các cảnh vệ không thấy các sứ đồ đâu cả, liền trở về báo cáo rằng: 23 “Chúng tôi thấy khám đóng chặt, hoàn toàn an ninh, bọn lính canh đang đứng gác khắp các cổng, nhưng khi mở cửa khám, chúng tôi chẳng tìm thấy một tên nào cả!” 24 Nghe lời báo cáo, viên sĩ quan chỉ huy vệ binh đền thờ và các thượng tế hoang mang, không hiểu việc này sẽ diễn biến thế nào.
25 Bỗng có người đến báo cáo: “Kìa, những người quý vị tống giam vào khám đang đứng trong đền thờ dạy dân chúng!” 26 Viên sĩ quan chỉ huy đội tuần cảnh liền đem lính đi bắt các sứ đồ nhưng không dùng bạo lực vì sợ dân chúng ném đá.
27 Họ giải các sứ đồ đến hầu trước Hội Đồng. 28 Vị trưởng tế tra vấn: “Chúng tôi đã nghiêm cấm các anh dạy dỗ về Danh này, thế mà các anh lại làm cho thành Giê-ru-sa-lem đầy tràn đạo giáo của các anh. Các anh định đổ tội giết Người ấy cho chúng ta sao?”
29 Phê-rơ và các sứ đồ đáp: “Phải vâng lời Đức Chúa Trời hơn là vâng lời loài người! 30 Đức Chúa Trời của tổ phụ chúng ta đã khiến Đức Giê-su sống lại. Người đã bị quý vị giết chết bằng cách treo trên cây gỗ. 31 Chính Người lại được Đức Chúa Trời tôn lên làm Đấng Lãnh Đạo và Đấng Cứu Thế ở bên phải Đức Chúa Trời, để đem lại lòng ăn năn cho dân Y-sơ-ra-ên để họ được tha tội. 32 Chính chúng tôi đã chứng kiến các sự kiện này, nên xin làm nhân chứng cùng với Đức Thánh Linh mà Đức Chúa Trời ban cho những người vâng lời Ngài.”
33 Nghe xong các nhân viên Hội Đồng đều tức giận, quyết định giết các sứ đồ. 34 Nhưng một người Pha-ri-si tên Ga-ma-liên, một giáo sư Kinh Luật được dân tôn kính, đứng dậy giữa Hội Đồng, ra lệnh đem các sứ đồ ra ngoài trong chốc lát, 35 rồi phát biểu: “Thưa đồng bào Y-sơ-ra-ên, xin quý vị thận trọng trong việc xử trí những người này. 36 Trước đây, Thêu-đa nổi dậy, xưng hùng xưng bá; có độ bốn trăm người theo nó; nhưng nó bị giết, tất cả đồng bọn đều bị tan rã, không còn gì cả. 37 Sau đó, Giu-đa, người Ga-li-lê, nổi dậy trong thời kỳ kiểm tra dân số, lôi cuốn được nhiều người theo mình; nhưng nó cũng bỏ mạng và tất cả đồng bọn đều bị phân tán. 38 Vậy, bây giờ tôi khuyên quý vị: Hãy tránh xa những người này đi, cứ để mặc họ; vì nếu mưu định và công việc này là của loài người thì sẽ bị tiêu diệt; 39 nhưng nếu là của Đức Chúa Trời thì quý vị không tài nào tiêu diệt được, mà còn trở thành những kẻ chiến đấu chống nghịch Đức Chúa Trời!” Hội Đồng nghe theo lời ông, 40 gọi các sứ đồ vào, sai đánh đòn, và cấm nhặt không cho nói về Danh Giê-su, rồi phóng thích.
41 Các sứ đồ rời Hội Đồng ra về, hân hoan vì được kể là xứng đáng chịu sỉ nhục vì Danh Chúa. 42 Hằng ngày, dù ở trong đền thờ hoặc đi từ nhà này sang nhà khác, họ cứ tiếp tục dạy dỗ và truyền giảng về Đức Giê-su là Chúa Cứu Thế.

Lying to the Holy Spirit
5 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession. 2 And he kept back part of the proceeds, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles’ feet. 3 (A)But Peter said, “Ananias, why has (B)Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the price of the land for yourself? 4 While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your own control? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God.”
5 Then Ananias, hearing these words, (C)fell down and breathed his last. So great fear came upon all those who heard these things. 6 And the young men arose and (D)wrapped him up, carried him out, and buried him.
7 Now it was about three hours later when his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 And Peter answered her, “Tell me whether you sold the land for so much?”
She said, “Yes, for so much.”
9 Then Peter said to her, “How is it that you have agreed together (E)to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.” 10 (F)Then immediately she fell down at his feet and breathed her last. And the young men came in and found her dead, and carrying her out, buried her by her husband. 11 (G)So great fear came upon all the church and upon all who heard these things.
Continuing Power in the Church
12 And (H)through the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. (I)And they were all with one accord in Solomon’s Porch. 13 Yet (J)none of the rest dared join them, (K)but the people esteemed them highly. 14 And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, 15 so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, (L)that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them. 16 Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing (M)sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.
Imprisoned Apostles Freed
17 (N)Then the high priest rose up, and all those who were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with [a]indignation, 18 (O)and laid their hands on the apostles and put them in the common prison. 19 But at night (P)an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors and brought them out, and said, 20 “Go, stand in the temple and speak to the people (Q)all the words of this life.”
21 And when they heard that, they entered the temple early in the morning and taught. (R)But the high priest and those with him came and called the [b]council together, with all the [c]elders of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
Apostles on Trial Again
22 But when the officers came and did not find them in the prison, they returned and reported, 23 saying, “Indeed we found the prison shut securely, and the guards standing [d]outside before the doors; but when we opened them, we found no one inside!” 24 Now when [e]the high priest, (S)the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these things, they wondered what the outcome would be. 25 So one came and told them, [f]saying, “Look, the men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people!”
26 Then the captain went with the officers and brought them without violence, (T)for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned. 27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest asked them, 28 saying, (U)“Did we not strictly command you not to teach in this name? And look, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, (V)and intend to bring this Man’s (W)blood on us!”
29 But Peter and the other apostles answered and said: (X)“We ought to obey God rather than men. 30 (Y)The God of our fathers raised up Jesus whom you murdered by (Z)hanging on a tree. 31 (AA)Him God has exalted to His right hand to be (AB)Prince and (AC)Savior, (AD)to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins. 32 And (AE)we are His witnesses to these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit (AF)whom God has given to those who obey Him.”
Gamaliel’s Advice
33 When they heard this, they were (AG)furious[g] and plotted to kill them. 34 Then one in the council stood up, a Pharisee named (AH)Gamaliel, a teacher of the law held in respect by all the people, and commanded them to put the apostles outside for a little while. 35 And he said to them: “Men of Israel, [h]take heed to yourselves what you intend to do regarding these men. 36 For some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody. A number of men, about four hundred, [i]joined him. He was slain, and all who obeyed him were scattered and came to nothing. 37 After this man, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the census, and drew away many people after him. He also perished, and all who obeyed him were dispersed. 38 And now I say to you, keep away from these men and let them alone; for if this plan or this work is of men, it will come to nothing; 39 (AI)but if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it—lest you even be found (AJ)to fight against God.”
40 And they agreed with him, and when they had (AK)called for the apostles (AL)and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. 41 So they departed from the presence of the council, (AM)rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for [j]His name. 42 And daily (AN)in the temple, and in every house, (AO)they did not cease teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ.

Ananias and Sapphira
5 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself,(A) but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.(B)
3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan(C) has so filled your heart(D) that you have lied to the Holy Spirit(E) and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land?(F) 4 Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal?(G) What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”(H)
5 When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died.(I) And great fear(J) seized all who heard what had happened. 6 Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body,(K) and carried him out and buried him.
7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”
“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”(L)
9 Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord?(M) Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”
10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died.(N) Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband.(O) 11 Great fear(P) seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.
The Apostles Heal Many
12 The apostles performed many signs and wonders(Q) among the people. And all the believers used to meet together(R) in Solomon’s Colonnade.(S) 13 No one else dared join them, even though they were highly regarded by the people.(T) 14 Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number.(U) 15 As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by.(V) 16 Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by impure spirits, and all of them were healed.(W)
The Apostles Persecuted
17 Then the high priest and all his associates, who were members of the party(X) of the Sadducees,(Y) were filled with jealousy. 18 They arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail.(Z) 19 But during the night an angel(AA) of the Lord opened the doors of the jail(AB) and brought them out.(AC) 20 “Go, stand in the temple courts,” he said, “and tell the people all about this new life.”(AD)
21 At daybreak they entered the temple courts, as they had been told, and began to teach the people.
When the high priest and his associates(AE) arrived, they called together the Sanhedrin(AF)—the full assembly of the elders of Israel—and sent to the jail for the apostles. 22 But on arriving at the jail, the officers did not find them there.(AG) So they went back and reported, 23 “We found the jail securely locked, with the guards standing at the doors; but when we opened them, we found no one inside.” 24 On hearing this report, the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests(AH) were at a loss, wondering what this might lead to.
25 Then someone came and said, “Look! The men you put in jail are standing in the temple courts teaching the people.” 26 At that, the captain went with his officers and brought the apostles. They did not use force, because they feared that the people(AI) would stone them.
27 The apostles were brought in and made to appear before the Sanhedrin(AJ) to be questioned by the high priest. 28 “We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,”(AK) he said. “Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man’s blood.”(AL)
29 Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings!(AM) 30 The God of our ancestors(AN) raised Jesus from the dead(AO)—whom you killed by hanging him on a cross.(AP) 31 God exalted him to his own right hand(AQ) as Prince and Savior(AR) that he might bring Israel to repentance and forgive their sins.(AS) 32 We are witnesses of these things,(AT) and so is the Holy Spirit,(AU) whom God has given to those who obey him.”
33 When they heard this, they were furious(AV) and wanted to put them to death. 34 But a Pharisee named Gamaliel,(AW) a teacher of the law,(AX) who was honored by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and ordered that the men be put outside for a little while. 35 Then he addressed the Sanhedrin: “Men of Israel, consider carefully what you intend to do to these men. 36 Some time ago Theudas appeared, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men rallied to him. He was killed, all his followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing. 37 After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census(AY) and led a band of people in revolt. He too was killed, and all his followers were scattered. 38 Therefore, in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone! Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail.(AZ) 39 But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God.”(BA)
40 His speech persuaded them. They called the apostles in and had them flogged.(BB) Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
41 The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing(BC) because they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name.(BD) 42 Day after day, in the temple courts(BE) and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news(BF) that Jesus is the Messiah.(BG)
