Acts 4:29-37 ▼

29 And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings, and grant to thy servants that they may speak thy word with all boldness,

30 by stretching out thy hand to heal, that both signs and wonders may be done through the name of thy holy child Jesus.

31 And when they had prayed, the place in which they were assembled was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and spoke the word of God with boldness.

32 And the multitude of believers were of one heart and of one soul; and no one said that any part of his possessions was his own; but they had all things in common.

33 And with great power did the apostles bear testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was on them all.

34 Nor, indeed, was there any needy person among them; for as many as were owners of lands or houses, sold them, and brought the prices of what had been sold,

35 and laid them down at the feet of the apostles; and distribution was made to every one as he had need.

36 And Joses, who, by the apostles, was surnamed Barnabas, (which name, when translated, is, Son of consolation,) a Levite, by birth a Cyprian,

37 having land, sold it, and brought the money and laid it at the feet of the apostles.
