Acts 4:17-37

17But that it spread no further among the peopleG2992, let us threaten them, that they speakG2980 henceforth to no manG444 in this nameG3686. 18And they calledG2564 them, and charged them not to speak at all nor teachG1321 in the nameG3686 of JesusG2424. 19But PeterG4074 and JohnG2491 answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto them, Whether it isG1510 rightG1342 in the sight of GodG2316 to hearken unto you ratherG3123 than unto GodG2316, judgeG2919 ye: 20for we cannot but speakG2980 the thingsG3739 which we sawG3708 and heardG191. 21And they, when they had further threatened them, let them goG630, findingG2147 nothingG3367 howG4459 they might punish them, because of the peopleG2992; for all men glorifiedG1392 GodG2316 for that which was done. 22For the manG444 wasG1510 moreG4183 than fortyG5062 yearsG2094 old, on whom this miracle of healingG2392 wasG1510 wrought.

23And being let goG630, they cameG2064 to their ownG2398 company, and reportedG518 all that the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245 had saidG3004 unto them. 24And they, when they heardG191 it, liftedG142 up their voiceG5456 to GodG2316 with oneG3661 accordG3661, and saidG3004, O LordG1203, thou that didst makeG4160 the heavenG3772 and the earthG1093 and the seaG2281, and all that in them is: 25who by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, by the mouthG4750 of our fatherG3962 DavidG1138 thy servantG3816, didst sayG3004,

27for of a truthG225 in this cityG4172 against thy holyG40 ServantG3816 JesusG2424, whom thou didst anoint, both HerodG2264 and PontiusG4194 PilateG4091, with the GentilesG1484 and the peoplesG2992 of IsraelG2474, were gatheredG4863 togetherG4863, 28to do whatsoever thy handG5495 and thy council foreordained to comeG1096 to passG1096. 29And nowG3568, LordG2962, look upon their threatenings: and grantG1325 unto thy servantsG1401 to speakG2980 thy wordG3056 with all boldnessG3954, 30while thou stretchest forth thy handG5495 to healG2392; and that signsG4592 and wondersG5059 may be done through the nameG3686 of thy holyG40 ServantG3816 JesusG2424. 31And when they had prayedG1189, the placeG5117 wasG1510 shakenG4531 wherein they wereG1510 gatheredG4863 togetherG4863; and they wereG1510 all filledG4130 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, and they spake the wordG3056 of GodG2316 with boldnessG3954.

32And the multitudeG4128 of them that believedG4100 wereG1510 of oneG1520 heartG2588 and soulG5590: and not oneG1520of themsaidG3004 that aught of the thingsG3956 which he possessed wasG1510 his ownG2398; but they had all thingsG3956 commonG2839. 33And with greatG3173 powerG1411 gaveG591 the apostlesG652 their witness of the resurrectionG386 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424: and greatG3173 graceG5485 wasG1510 upon them all. 34For neither wasG1510 there among them any that lacked: for as manyG3745 as wereG1510 possessors of landsG5564 or housesG3614 soldG4453 them, and broughtG5342 the prices of the things that wereG1510 soldG4453, 35and laidG5087 them at the apostles’G652 feetG4228: and distribution was made unto each, according as any oneG5100 had needG5532.

36And JosephG2501, who by the apostlesG652 wasG1510 surnamed BarnabasG921 (which isG1510, beingG1510 interpreted, SonG5207 of exhortationG3874), a LeviteG3019, a man of Cyprus by raceG1085, 37having a fieldG68, soldG4453 it, and broughtG5342 the moneyG5536 and laidG5087 it at the apostles’G652 feetG4228.
