7 Y haciéndolos presentar en medio, les preguntaron: ¿Con qué potestad, ó en qué nombre, habéis hecho vosotros esto?

8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “You rulers of the people and elders of Israel,
9 yf we this daye are examined of the good dede done to the sycke man by what meanes he is made whoale:
9 Pues que somos hoy demandados acerca del beneficio hecho á un hombre enfermo, de qué manera éste haya sido sanado,
9 if we are examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed,
10 be that knowen vnto you all and to the people of Israel that in the name of Iesus Christ of Nazareth whom ye crucified and whom God raysed agayne from deeth: even by him doth this man stonde here present before you whoale.
10 Sea notorio á todos vosotros, y á todo el pueblo de Israel, que en el nombre de Jesucristo de Nazaret, al que vosotros crucificasteis y Dios le resucitó de los muertos, por él este hombre está en vuestra presencia sano.
10 may it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, this man stands here before you whole in him.
11 This is the stone cast a syde of you bylders which is set in the chefe place of the corner.
11 Este es la piedra reprobada de vosotros los edificadores, la cual es puesta por cabeza del ángulo.
11 He is ‘the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.’
12 Nether is ther salvacion in eny other. Nor yet also is ther eny other name geven to men wherin we must be saved.
12 Y en ningún otro hay salud; porque no hay otro nombre debajo del cielo, dado á los hombres, en que podamos ser salvos.
12 There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!”
13 When they sawe the boldnes of Peter and Iohn and vnderstode that they were vnlerned men and laye people they marveyled and they knew them that they were with Iesu:
13 Entonces viendo la constancia de Pedro y de Juan, sabido que eran hombres sin letras é ignorantes, se maravillaban; y les conocían que habían estado con Jesús.
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled. They recognized that they had been with Jesus.
14 and beholdinge also the man which was healed stondinge with the they coulde not saye agaynst it.
14 Y viendo al hombre que había sido sanado, que estaba con ellos, no podían decir nada en contra.
14 Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 But they commaunded them to go a syde out of the counsell and counceled amonge them selves
15 Mas les mandaron que se saliesen fuera del concilio; y conferían entre sí,
15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 sayinge: what shall we do to these men? For a manifest signe is done by the and is openly knowen to all them that dwell in Ierusalem and we cannot denye it.
16 Diciendo: ¿Qué hemos de hacer á estos hombres? porque de cierto, señal manifiesta ha sido hecha por ellos, notoria á todos los que moran en Jerusalem, y no lo podemos negar.
16 saying, “What shall we do to these men? Because indeed a notable miracle has been done through them, as can be plainly seen by all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we can’t deny it.
17 But that it be noysed no farther amonge the people let us threaten and charge them that they speake hence forth to no man in this name.
17 Todavía, porque no se divulgue más por el pueblo, amenacémoslos que no hablen de aquí adelante á hombre alguno en este nombre.
17 But so that this spreads no further among the people, let’s threaten them, that from now on they don’t speak to anyone in this name.”
18 And they called them and commaunded them that in no wyse they shuld speake or teache in the name of Iesu.
18 Y llamándolos, les intimaron que en ninguna manera hablasen ni enseñasen en el nombre de Jesús.
18 They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 But Peter and Iohn answered vnto them and sayde: whether it be right in the syght of God to obeye you moare then God iudge ye.
19 Entonces Pedro y Juan, respondiendo, les dijeron: Juzgad si es justo delante de Dios obedecer antes á vosotros que á Dios:
19 But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, judge for yourselves,
20 For we cannot but speake that which we have sene and hearde.
20 Porque no podemos dejar de decir lo que hemos visto y oído.
20 for we can’t help telling the things which we saw and heard.”
21 So threatened they them and let them goo and founde no thinge how to punysshe them because of the people. For all me lauded God for the myracle which was done:
21 Ellos entonces los despacharon amenazándolos, no hallando ningún modo de castigarlos, por causa del pueblo; porque todos glorificaban á Dios de lo que había sido hecho.
21 When they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people; for everyone glorified God for that which was done.
22 for the man was above fourty yeare olde on whom this myracle of healinge was shewed.
22 Porque el hombre en quien había sido hecho este milagro de sanidad, era de más de cuarenta años.
22 For the man on whom this miracle of healing was performed was more than forty years old.
23 Assone as they were let goo they came to their felowes and shewed all that the hye prestes and elders had sayde to them.
23 Y sueltos, vinieron á los suyos, y contaron todo lo que los príncipes de los sacerdotes y los ancianos les habían dicho.
23 Being let go, they came to their own company and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.
24 And when they hearde that they lyfte vp their voyces to God with one accorde and sayde: Lorde thou arte God which hast made heaven and erth the see and all that in them is
24 Y ellos, habiéndolo oído, alzaron unánimes la voz á Dios, y dijeron: Señor, tú eres el Dios que hiciste el cielo y la tierra, la mar, y todo lo que en ellos hay;
24 When they heard it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord and said, “O Lord, you are God, who made the sky, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them;
25 which by the mouth of thy servaunt David hast sayd: Why dyd the hethen rage and the people immagen vayne thinges.
25 Que por boca de David, tu siervo, dijiste: ¿Por qué han bramado las gentes, y los pueblos han pensado cosas vanas?
25 who by the mouth of your servant David, said, ‘Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
26 The kynges of the erth stode vp and the rulars came to gedder agaynst the Lorde and agaynst his Christ.
26 Asistieron los reyes de la tierra, y los príncipes se juntaron en uno contra el Señor, y contra su Cristo.
26 The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers plot together, against the Lord, and against his Christ.’
27 For of a trueth agaynst thy holy chylde Iesus whom thou hast annoynted bothe Herode and also Poncius Pylate with the Gentils and the people of Israel gaddered them selves to gedder
27 Porque verdaderamente se juntaron en esta ciudad contra tu santo Hijo Jesús, al cual ungiste, Herodes y Poncio Pilato, con los Gentiles y los pueblos de Israel,
27 “For truly, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed,
28 forto do whatsoever thy honde and thy counsell determined before to be done.
28 Para hacer lo que tu mano y tu consejo habían antes determinado que había de ser hecho.
28 to do whatever your hand and your counsel foreordained to happen.
29 And now Lorde beholde their threatenynges and graunte vnto thy servauntes with all confidence to speake thy worde.
29 Y ahora, Señor, mira sus amenazas, y da á tus siervos que con toda confianza hablen tu palabra;
29 Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,
30 So that thou stretche forth thy honde that healynge and signes and wonders be done by the name of thy holy chylde Iesus.
30 Que extiendas tu mano á que sanidades, y milagros, y prodigios sean hechos por el nombre de tu santo Hijo Jesús.
30 while you stretch out your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of your holy Servant Jesus.”
31 And assone as they had prayed the place moved wheare they were assembled to gedder and they were all filled with the holy goost and they spake the worde of God boldely.
31 Y como hubieron orado, el lugar en que estaban congregados tembló; y todos fueron llenos del Espíritu Santo, y hablaron la palabra de Dios con confianza.
31 When they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were gathered together. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
32 And the multitude of them that beleved were of one hert and of one soule. Also none of them sayde that eny of the thinges which he possessed was his awne: but had all thinges commen.
32 Y la multitud de los que habían creído era de un corazón y un alma: y ninguno decía ser suyo algo de lo que poseía; mas todas las cosas les eran comunes.
32 The multitude of those who believed were of one heart and soul. Not one of them claimed that anything of the things which he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common.

33 Y los apóstoles daban testimonio de la resurrección del Señor Jesús con gran esfuerzo; y gran gracia era en todos ellos.
33 With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all.
34 Nether was ther eny amonge them that lacked. For as many as were possessers of londes or housses solde them and brought the pryce of the thinges that were solde

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Ere yet they had time to take breath after their first trials, straightway they enter into others. And observe how the events are disposed. First, they were all mocked together; this was no small trial: secondly, they enter into dangers.
