WORD Research this...Acts 4
- 1 Petro na Yohane walipokuwa bado wanawahutubia watu, makuhani na mkuu wa walinzi wa Hekalu pamoja na Masadukayo walifika.
- 2 Walikasirika sana, maana hao mitume walikuwa wanawahubiria watu kwamba Yesu alifufuka, jambo ambalo linaonyesha wazi kwamba wafu watafufuka.
- 3 Basi, waliwatia nguvuni na kwa kuwa usiku ulikuwa umekaribia, wakawaweka chini ya ulinzi mpaka kesho yake.
- 4 Lakini wengi kati ya wale waliosikia ujumbe wao waliamini, na idadi ya waumini ikawa imefika karibu elfu tano.
- 5 Kesho yake, viongozi wa Wayahudi, wazee na walimu wa Sheria, walikusanyika pamoja huko Yerusalemu.
- 6 Walikutana pamoja na Anasi, Kayafa, Yohane, Aleksanda na wengine waliokuwa wa ukoo wa Kuhani Mkuu.
- 7 Waliwasimamisha mitume mbele yao, wakawauliza, "Ninyi mmefanya jambo hili kwa nguvu gani na kwa jina la nani?"
- 8 Hapo, Petro, akiwa amejawa na Roho Mtakatifu, akawaambia, "Viongozi na wazee wa watu!
- 9 Ikiwa mnatuuliza leo juu ya kile kitendo chema alichofanyiwa yule mtu aliyekuwa kiwete na jinsi alivyopata kuwa mzima,
- 10 basi, ninyi na watu wote wa Israeli mnapaswa kujua kwamba mtu huyu anasimama mbele yenu leo, mzima kabisa, kwa nguvu ya jina lake Yesu wa Nazareti ambaye ninyi mlimsulubisha, lakini Mungu akamfufua kutoka wafu.
-
11 Huyu ndiye ambaye Maandiko Matakatifu yanasema:
Jiwe mlilokataa ninyi waashi, sasa limekuwa jiwe kuu la msingi. - 12 Wokovu haupatikani kwa mtu mwingine yeyote, kwa maana duniani pote, binadamu hawakupewa jina la mtu mwingine ambaye sisi tunaweza kuokolewa naye."
- 13 Hao wazee wa baraza, wakiwa wanajua kwamba Petro na Yohane walikuwa watu wasio na kisomo wala elimu yoyote, walishangaa juu ya jinsi walivyosema kwa uhodari. Wakatambua kwamba walikuwa wamejiunga na Yesu.
- 14 Lakini walipomwona yule mtu aliyeponywa amesimama pamoja nao, hawakuweza kusema kitu.
- 15 Hivyo, waliwaamuru watoke nje ya baraza, nao wakabaki ndani wakizungumza kwa faragha.
- 16 Wakaulizana, "Tufanye nini na watu hawa? Kila mtu anayeishi Yerusalemu anajua kwamba mwujiza huu wa ajabu umefanyika, nasi hatuwezi kukana jambo hilo.
- 17 Lakini ili tupate kuzuia jambo hili lisienee zaidi kati ya watu, tuwaonye wasiongee na mtu yeyote kwa jina la Yesu."
- 18 Kwa hiyo wakawaita tena ndani, wakawaonya wasiongee tena hadharani, wala kufundisha kwa jina la Yesu.
- 19 Lakini Petro na Yohane wakawajibu, "Amueni ninyi wenyewe kama ni haki mbele ya Mungu kuwatii ninyi kuliko kumtii yeye.
- 20 Kwa maana hatuwezi kuacha kusema juu ya mambo yale tuliyoyaona na kuyasikia."
- 21 Basi, hao wazee wa Baraza wakawaonya kwa ukali zaidi, halafu wakawaacha huru. Hawakuweza kuwapa adhabu kwa sababu watu wote walikuwa wakimtukuza Mungu kwa sababu ya tukio hilo.
- 22 Huyo mtu aliyeponywa alikuwa na umri wa miaka zaidi ya arobaini.
- 23 Mara tu walipoachwa huru, Petro na Yohane walirudi kwa wenzao, wakawaeleza yale waliyoambiwa na makuhani wakuu na wazee.
- 24 Waliposikia habari hiyo waliungana pamoja katika kumwomba Mungu wakisema, "Bwana, wewe ni Muumba wa mbingu na nchi, bahari na vyote vilivyomo!
-
25 Ndiwe uliyemfanya mtumishi wako, babu yetu Daudi, aseme kwa nguvu ya Roho Mtakatifu:
Kwa nini mataifa yameghadhibika? Mbona watu wamefanya mipango ya bure? -
26 Wafalme wa dunia walijiweka tayari, na watawala walikutana pamoja, ili kumwasi Bwana na Kristo wake.
- 27 "Maana, kwa hakika, ndivyo Herode, Pontio Pilato, watu wa Israeli na watu wa mataifa walivyokutanika papa hapa mjini, kumpinga Yesu Mtumishi wako Mtakatifu ambaye umemtia mafuta.
- 28 Naam, walikutana ili wafanye yale ambayo ulikusudia na kupanga tangu mwanzo kwa uwezo wako na mapenzi yako.
- 29 Lakini sasa, ee Bwana, angalia vitisho vyao. Utuwezeshe sisi watumishi wako kuhubiri neno lako kwa uhodari.
- 30 Nyosha mkono wako uponye watu. Fanya ishara na maajabu kwa jina la Yesu Mtumishi wako Mtakatifu."
- 31 Walipomaliza kusali, pale mahali walipokuwa wamekutanika pakatikiswa, nao wote wakajazwa Roho Mtakatifu. Wote wakaanza kuhubiri neno la Mungu bila uoga.
- 32 Jumuiya yote ya waumini ilikuwa moyo mmoja na roho moja. Hakuna hata mmoja aliyekuwa na kitu chochote akakiweka kuwa mali yake binafsi, ila waligawana vyote walivyokuwa navyo.
- 33 Mitume walishuhudia kwa nguvu nyingi kufufuka kwa Bwana Yesu, naye Mungu akawapa baraka nyingi.
- 34 Hakuna mtu yeyote aliyetindikiwa kitu, maana waliokuwa na mashamba au nyumba walikuwa wanaviuza
- 35 na kuwakabidhi mitume fedha hizo, zikagawiwa kila mmoja kadiri ya mahitaji yake.
- 36 Kulikuwa na Mlawi mmoja, mzaliwa wa Kupro, jina lake Yosefu, ambaye mitume walimwita jina Barnaba (maana yake, "Mtu mwenye kutia moyo").
- 37 Yeye pia alikuwa na shamba lake, akaliuza; akazichukua zile fedha, akawakabidhi mitume.

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
