1And while they spake to the people, the priests and the magistrates of the temple, and the Sadducees came upon them, 2and sorrowed, that they taught the people, and told in Jesus the again-rising from death [and told by Jesus (the) again-rising from (the) dead]. (and were vexed, that they taught the people, and told them of the resurrection from the dead through Jesus.) 3And they laid hands on them, and putted them into (the) ward, (or into the keeping), into the morrow (and put them in the prison until the morning); for it was then eventide, (or evening). 4But many of them that had heard the word, believed; and the number of men was made five thousands [and the number of them is made five thousand].

5And amorrow it was done [Forsooth in the morrow it was done], that the princes of them, and elder men and scribes were gathered in Jerusalem; (And the next morning it was done, that the high priests, and the elders, and the scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem;) 6and Annas, (the) prince of priests (and Annas, the former High Priest), and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and how many ever were of the kind, (or of the kindred), of priests. 7And they set them in the middle, and asked, In what virtue, either in what name, have ye done this thing? (And they set them in their midst, and asked, By what power, or in what name, have ye done this thing?) 8Then Peter filled with the Holy Ghost, said to them, Ye princes of the people, and ye elder men, hear ye. (Then Peter filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, Ye high priests of the people, and ye elders, listen.) 9If we today be deemed in the good deed of a sick man, in whom, (or in which), this man is made safe, (If today we be judged for this good deed for a sick man, by which this man is saved,) 10be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from death [whom God raised from (the) dead], in this, (or in him), this man standeth whole before you. 11This is the stone, which was reproved of you building, which is made into the head of the corner; 12and health is not in any other. For neither (any) other name under heaven is given to men, in which it behooveth us to be made safe. (and salvation, or deliverance, is not by any other. For no other name under heaven is given to men, by which it behooveth us to be saved.)

13And they saw the steadfastness of Peter and of John, and when it was found that they were men unlettered, (or without letters), and lay men, they wondered, and they knew them that they were with Jesus. 14And they saw the man that was healed, standing with them, and they might nothing gainsay (them) (and they could not say anything against them). 15But they commanded them to go forth without the council (And they ordered them to go outside the Council chamber). And they spake together, 16and said, What shall we do to these men? for the sign, (or this miracle), is made known by them to all men, that dwell at Jerusalem; it is open, and we be not able to deny (it) [and we may not deny (it)]. 17But that it be no more published into the people, menace we to them (let us threaten them), (so) that they speak no more in this name to any man. 18And they called them, and commanded to them, (or announced to them), that on no manner they should speak, neither teach, in the name of Jesus. 19But Peter and John answered, and said to them, If it be rightful in the sight of God to hear you rather than God, deem ye. 20For we must needs speak those things, that we have seen and heard. [Forsooth we may not not speak (about) the things that we have seen and heard.] 21And they menaced them, and let them go, and found not how they should punish them, for the people; for all men clarified (God, for) that thing that was done in that that was befallen. (And they threatened them, and then let them go, for they could not find any way to punish them, because of the people; for all men glorified God, for what was done in all that befell.) 22For the man was more than forty years old, in whom this sign of healing, (or of health), was made. (For the man was more than forty years old, in whom this miracle of a cure was done.)

23And when they were delivered, (or were let go), they came to their fellows, and told to them, how great things [how many things] the princes of (the) priests and the elder men had said to them. (And when they were delivered, or were let go, they came back to their fellows, and told them everything that the high priests and the elders had said to them.) 24And when they heard, with one heart they raised (up their) voice to the Lord, and said, Lord, thou that madest heaven and earth, (the) sea, and all things that be in them,

25which saidest by the Holy Ghost, by the mouth of our father David, thy child, Why heathen men gnashed with (their) teeth together, (or wrathed), and the peoples thought vain things? (who said by the Holy Spirit, by the mouth of our father David, thy servant, Why did the Gentiles gnash with their teeth together, or be enraged, and the peoples thought empty and futile things?)

26(The) Kings of the earth stood nigh, and (the) princes came together into one, against the Lord, and against his Christ (and against his Messiah).

27For verily, Herod and Pontius Pilate, with heathen men, and peoples of Israel, came together in this city against thine holy child Jesus, whom thou anointedest, (For truly, Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, came together in this city against thine holy servant Jesus, whom thou anointedest,) 28to do the things, that thine hand and thy counsel, (or thy plan), deemed to be done. 29And now, Lord, behold into the threatenings of them, and grant to thy servants to speak thy word with all trust, 30in that thing that thou hold forth thine hand, that healings and signs, (or miracles), and wonders be made by the name of thine holy Son Jesus. 31And when they had prayed, the place was moved, in which they were gathered; and all were filled with the Holy Ghost (and everyone was filled with the Holy Spirit), and spake the word of God with trust.

32And of the multitude of men believing was (of) one heart and one will; neither any man said (that) anything of those things that he wielded, (or that he possessed), to be his own, but all things were (held in) common to them. 33And with great virtue, the apostles yielded witnessing of the again-rising of Jesus Christ our Lord, and great grace was in all (of) them [and great grace was in them all]. (And with great power, the apostles testified about the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord, and everyone was richly blessed.) 34For neither any needy man was among them, for how many ever were possessors of fields, either of houses, they sold (them), and brought the prices of those things that they sold (and brought the payments for those things that they sold), 35and laid (them) before the feet of the apostles. And it was parted to each, as it was need(ful) to each (And it was divided unto each, as it was needed by each).

36Forsooth Joseph, that was named Barnabas of [the] apostles, that is to say, the son of comfort, of the lineage, (or of the tribe), of Levi, (or a Levite by kin), a man of Cyprus, 37when he had a field, sold it, and brought the price (sold it, and brought the payment for it), and laid it before the feet of the apostles.
