42 E perseveravam na doutrina dos apóstolos e na comunhão, no partir do pão e nas orações. 43 Em cada alma havia temor; e muitos prodígios e sinais eram feitos por meio dos apóstolos. 44 Todos os que criam estavam juntos e tinham tudo em comum. 45 Vendiam as suas propriedades e bens, distribuindo o produto entre todos, à medida que alguém tinha necessidade. 46 Diariamente perseveravam unânimes no templo, partiam pão de casa em casa e tomavam as suas refeições com alegria e singeleza de coração, 47 louvando a Deus e contando com a simpatia de todo o povo. Enquanto isso, o Senhor lhes acrescentava, dia a dia, os que iam sendo salvos.

42 And they went on to give constant attentionunto the teaching of the apostles, and unto the fellowship, unto the breaking of bread, and unto the prayers.

43 And there came on every soul, fear, and, many wonders and signs, through means of the apostles, were coming to pass.

44 And, all who believed, with one accord, began to hold all things common;

45 and, their possessions and goods, were they selling and distributing them unto all, in so far as anyone had need.

46 And, daily giving attendance with one intent in the temple and, at home, breaking bread, they were partaking of food with exultation and singleness of heart;

47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And, the Lord, was adding them who were being saved, daily, together.
