Acts 4:25-37

25You said by the Ruach ha-Kodesh, through the mouth of our father David Your servant, ‘Why did the nations rage and the peoples plot foolish things?

26The kings of the earth took their stand and the rulers were gathered together against Adonai and against His Anointed One.’

27“For truly both Herod and Pontius Pilate, along with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel, were gathered together in this city against Your holy Servant Yeshua, whom You anointed.

28They did whatever Your hand and Your purpose predetermined to happen.

29And now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant Your servants to speak Your word with utmost courage—

30while You stretch out Your hand to heal, and signs and wonders take place through the name of Your holy Servant Yeshua.”

31When they had prayed, the place where they were gathered was shaken. And they were all filled with the Ruach ha-Kodesh and began to speak the word of God with boldness.

32Now the whole group of those who believed was one in heart and mind. No one would say anything he owned was his own, but they had everything in common.

33With great power the emissaries were giving witness to the resurrection of the Lord Yeshua, and abundant favor was upon them all.

34No one among them was needy, for all who were owners of lands or houses would sell them and bring the proceeds

35and set them at the feet of the emissaries. And the proceeds were distributed according to the need each one had.

36Now Joseph, also called Barnabas by the emissaries (which is translated Son of Encouragement), was a Levite and native of Cyprus.

37He sold a field that he owned and brought the money and laid it at the feet of the emissaries.
