Katwa Nono Katwa 11

1 Nen, niono kadura, nan nuana, alenge na iwa di nanyan Yahudiya lanza alumai tutun nsere uliru Kutelle.

And the apostles and the brethren who are in Judea heard that also the nations did receive the word of God,

2 Kubi na Bitrus ndaa Urushalima, inung alenge na idi anan kallu kucuru sughe kayasu;

and when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision were contending with him,

3 Iworo “Fe dinsu ligo nin na nan salin kalizu kucuru, umini din su kileo nanghinu!”

saying — 'Unto men uncircumcised thou didst go in, and didst eat with them!'

4 Ame Bitrus cizina ubellu nani nimon inda na idi, a woro.

And Peter having begun, did expound to them in order saying,

5 Meng wadi nlirang nanya kagbiri Njoppa, nta amoro nwui nbellen kukuzun na kuwa tollu, nafo kupee kupash, itoltuna unuzu kitene kani, nin nasari anas, ku da tolo kiti nighe.

'I was in the city of Joppa praying, and I saw in a trance a vision, a certain vessel coming down, as a great sheet by four corners being let down out of the heaven, and it came unto me;

6 nceo iyizi nighe ku, nkpiliza kitene, nyene inawa nabunu anas kutyin, inawa ididia kusho, in wunnu naburi, nan nanyin kitene kani.

at which having looked stedfastly, I was considering, and I saw the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of heaven;

7 Nnin lanzu liwui li woroiyi “Fita Bitrus, mollo ulii!”

and I heard a voice saying to me, Having risen, Peter, slay and eat;

8 Meng woro na nanere ba, Cikilari, bara na imomon nsalin lau sa indinong nsa pira unnu ninghe ba.”

and I said, Not so, Lord; because anything common or unclean hath at no time entered into my mouth;

9 Ama liwuiye kawa tutun unuzu kitene kane, “Ile imon na Kutelle nbelle idi lau, nafe nwa yiccila inin indinong ba.

and a voice did answer me a second time out of the heaven, What God did cleanse, thou — declare not thou common.

10 Ile imone wasu nani udu titat, nin nani vat nimone iwa kpilin mun udu kitene kane tutung.

'And this happened thrice, and again was all drawn up to the heaven,

11 Na nin molu kubi ba, kikane among anit natat, wa yisssin nbun kilare na nwa duku, itoo nani unuzun Kaisariya udak kiti ninghe.

and, lo, immediately, three men stood at the house in which I was, having been sent from Caesarea unto me,

12 Uruhu tayi nnya nanghinu, na nwa su maferuferu kiti mine ba. Nuana nane kutoci ne nya nanmi, udu nanya kilari nniti une.

and the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting, and these six brethren also went with me, and we did enter into the house of the man,

13 A belle nari yanda na ayene anan kadura Kutelle nanya kilari me, inin woro “Too anit udu Ujoppa idanin Bitrus ulenge na idin yiccughe Simon.

he declared also to us how he saw the messenger in his house standing, and saying to him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter,

14 Ame ma liru nanghinu nbellen kadura kanga na ubase utucufe nin vat kilari fe.”

who shall speak sayings by which thou shalt be saved, thou and all thy house.

15 Na ncizina uliru nanghinu, Uruhu ulau tolo kitene mine nafo na uwa tolu nghireke nin cizinue.

'And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit did fall upon them, even as also upon us in the beginning,

16 Meng lizuno nin lirun Cikilari, na awa woro, “Yuhana ame wa shintizin anit nin nmyen; ama anung ima shintizunu minu nanya Ruhu ulau.”

and I remembered the saying of the Lord, how he said, John indeed did baptize with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit;

17 Andi Kutelle wa ni nani ufillu nafo na ana ninari kube nati wa yinnin nin Cikilari Yesu Kristi, menghari wadi nworu in yissin gambalang nin Kutelle?”

if then the equal gift God did give to them as also to us, having believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ, I — how was I able to withstand God?'

18 Na ilanza ile imone, na itardaghe uliru ba, iwana zazin Kutelleri, iworo, “Kutelle nani Awurmi likara nsunu naliapi wang.”

And they, having heard these things, were silent, and were glorifying God, saying, 'Then, indeed, also to the nations did God give the reformation to life.'

19 Bara nani anan yinnue na iwa sono uniu ulenge na uwa cizin kubin Istifanus wati nani imala kiti vat unuzun Urushalima-alenge na inya ido pit udi duru Ufinikiya. Iwa bellu ubeleng nlirun Yesu kiti na Yahudawari cas, ana umon tutung ba.

Those, indeed, therefore, having been scattered abroad, from the tribulation that came after Stephen, went through unto Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to none except to Jews only;

20 Ama among anit, unuzun Saipirus nin Serene, wadak Antakiya ida su a Hilinawa nin wazin Ciklari Yesu.

and there were certain of them men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who having entered into Antioch, were speaking unto the Hellenists, proclaiming good news — the Lord Jesus,

21 Tutung ucaran Cikilari wayita ligowe nanghinu; anit gbardang gitirno iyinna idofino Cikilare ku.

and the hand of the Lord was with them, a great number also, having believed, did turn unto the Lord.

22 Ubelleng mine da duru atuf nanan kilarin lira in Urushalima; inani wa tuu Barnabas ku udu Antakiya.

And the account was heard in the ears of the assembly that [is] in Jerusalem concerning them, and they sent forth Barnabas to go through unto Antioch,

23 Na awa dak ada yene ufillu Kutelle, ayi poaghe; anin na nani likara nibinayi nworu iso ligowe nanyan Cikilare nin nibinayi mine vat.

who, having come, and having seen the grace of God, was glad, and was exhorting all with purpose of heart to cleave to the Lord,

24 Bara awadi unit ugegeme nin Ruhu ulau a uyinnu sa uyenu ni Yesu, iwase ukpinu nanit gbardang kitin Cikilare.

because he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit, and of faith, and a great multitude was added to the Lord.

25 Barnabas tunna anuzu udun Tarsus adi pizuru Shawulu ku.

And Barnabas went forth to Tarsus, to seek for Saul,

26 Na awa seghe, amini wa dak ninghe Antakiya. Uni waso nafo nenge, nanya likus iwa sozo ligowe kilari nlira idursuzo anit gbardang. Iwa cizin uyicu nnono kadure anan dortu Kutelle in Antakiyari.

and having found him, he brought him to Antioch, and it came to pass that they a whole year did assemble together in the assembly, and taught a great multitude, the disciples also were divinely called first in Antioch Christians.

27 Nanya nayiri ane among a Anabawa wa dak Antakiya unuzun Urushalima.

And in those days there came from Jerusalem prophets to Antioch,

28 Umong mine unan lissan Agabus, fita ayissina a durso nnuzun Ruhu a woro kukpong kudya ma malu uyii ulele vat. Ile imone wase nayirin Kiladiyus.

and one of them, by name Agabus, having stood up, did signify through the Spirit a great dearth is about to be throughout all the world — which also came to pass in the time of Claudius Caesar —

29 Bara nani, nono Katwawe tunna iworo ituu nin bunu udu kiti linuana in Yahudiya, nafo na kogha ma yinnu.

and the disciples, according as any one was prospering, determined each of them to send for ministration to the brethren dwelling in Judea,

30 Iwa su nani; itoo nin nikurfung kiti na kukune nacaran Barnabas nin Shawulu.

which also they did, having sent unto the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
