42 A i u tonu ratou ki te whakaakoranga a nga apotoro, ki te kotahitanga, ki te whawhati taro, a ki te inoi.

43 Tau iho ana te wehi ki nga wairua katoa; he maha hoki nga mea whakamiharo me nga tohu i meinga e nga apotoro.

44 I noho tahi ano te hunga whakapono katoa, i huihuia ano hoki a ratou mea katoa;

45 I hokona atu hoki a ratou rawa me nga taonga, tuwhaina ana ma te katoa, rite tonu ki te mate o tenei, o tenei.

46 Haere tonu ana hoki ratou i tenei ra, i tenei ra ki te temepara, kotahi tonu ano te whakaaro; whawhati taro ana i o ratou kainga, kai ana i a ratou kai i runga i te koa, i te ngakau tapatahi;

47 E whakamoemiti ana ki te Atua, e paingia ana hoki e te iwi katoa. A honoa mai ana e te Ariki ki a ratou i tena ra, i tena ra, i tena ra, te hunga e whakaorangia ana.

42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
