Acts 4:29-37
29And 1nowG3568, LordG2962, lookG1896 atG1896 their threatsG547, and grantG1325 it to Your bond-servantsG1401 to 2speakG2980 Your wordG3056 with allG3956 3confidenceG3954, 30whileG1722 You extendG1614 Your handG5495 to healG2392, and 45signsG4592 and wondersG5059 takeG1096 placeG1096 throughG1223 the nameG3686 of Your holyG40 67ServantG3816 JesusG2424.” 31And when they had prayedG1189, the 8placeG5117 whereG1722G3739 they had gatheredG4863 togetherG4863 was shakenG4531, and they were allG537 9filledG4092 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 and began to 10speakG2980 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 with 11boldnessG3954.
32And the 12congregationG4128 of thoseG3588 who believedG4100 were of oneG1520 heartG2588 and soulG5590; and not oneG1520 of them 13claimedG3004 that anythingG5100 belongingG5225 to him was his ownG2398, but 14allG3956 thingsG3956 were commonG2839 propertyG2839 to them. 33And 15with greatG3173 powerG1411 the apostlesG652 were givingG591 16testimonyG3142 to the resurrectionG386 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, and abundantG3173 graceG5485 was upon them allG3956. 34For there was not a needyG1729 personG5100 amongG1722 them, for allG3745 whoG3745 were ownersG2935 of landG5564 orG2228 housesG3614 17would sellG4453 them and bringG5342 the 18proceedsG5092 of the salesG4097 35and 19layG5087 them at the apostles’G652 feetG4228, and they would be 20distributedG1239 to eachG1538 toG2530 theG2530 extentG2530 thatG2530 anyG5100 hadG2192 needG5532.
36Now JosephG2501, a LeviteG3019 of 21CyprianG2953 birthG1085, who was also calledG1941 22BarnabasG921 by the apostlesG652 (whichG3739 translatedG3177 meansG1510 SonG5207 of 2324EncouragementG3874), 3725ownedG5225 a tractG68 ofG68 landG68. So he soldG4453 it, and broughtG5342 the moneyG5536 and 26laidG5087 it at the apostles’G652 feetG4228.
