1 LEHENIC minçatu içan nauc, Theophile, Iesus eguiten eta iracasten hassi içan cen gauça guciéz.
The former account, indeed, I made concerning all things, O Theophilus, that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
2 Elegitu cituen Apostoluey Spiritu sainduaz manamenduac emanic, goiti recebitu cen egunerano.
till the day in which, having given command, through the Holy Spirit, to the apostles whom he did choose out, he was taken up,
3 Ceiney eracutsi-ere baitu bere buruä viciric bere passioneaz gueroztic anthitz seignale segurez, berroguey egunez hæy eracusten eta Iaincoaren resumáz minçatzen çayela.
to whom also he did present himself alive after his suffering, in many certain proofs, through forty days being seen by them, and speaking the things concerning the reign of God.
4 Eta bildu cituenean, mana citzan ezlitecen parti Ierusalemetic, baina iguriqui leçaten Aitaren promessa, Cein, dio, ençun baituçue eneganic.
And being assembled together with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, [saith he, ] 'Ye did hear of me;
5 Ecen Ioannesec batheyatu du vrez, baina çuec batheyaturen çarete Spiritu sainduaz anhitz egun gabe.
because John, indeed, baptized with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit — after not many days.'
6 Hec bada bildu ciradenean interroga ceçaten hura, cioitela, Iauna, dembora hunetan bere staturaco draucac resumá Israeli?
They, therefore, indeed, having come together, were questioning him, saying, 'Lord, dost thou at this time restore the reign to Israel?'
7 Eta erran ciecén, Ezta çuey eman Aitac bere bothere proprian eçarri dituen demborén edo sasoinén eçagutzea.
and he said unto them, 'It is not yours to know times or seasons that the Father did appoint in His own authority;
8 Baina recibituren duçue çuen gainera ethorriren den Spiritu sainduaren verthutea, eta içanen çaizquidate testimonio Ierusalemen, eta Iudea gucian, eta Samarian, eta lurraren bazterrerano
but ye shall receive power at the coming of the Holy Spirit upon you, and ye shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and unto the end of the earth.'
9 Eta gauça hauc erran cituenean, hec çacussatela altcha cedin: eta hodey batec harturic eraman ceçan hayén beguietaric.
And these things having said — they beholding — he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight;
10 Eta cerurat beguiac fincatuac çadutzatela hura ioaten cenean, huná, bi guiçon presenta citecen hayén aitzinean veztidura churitan:
and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on, then, lo, two men stood by them in white apparel,
11 Ceinéc erran-ere baitzeçaten, Galileaco guiçonác, cergatic zaudete, cerurat beha çaudetela? goiti çuetaric cerurat recebitu den Iesus haur, hala ethorriren da nola ikussi baituçue cerurat ioaiten.
who also said, 'Men, Galileans, why do ye stand gazing into the heaven? this Jesus who was received up from you into the heaven, shall so come in what manner ye saw him going on to the heaven.'
12 Orduan itzul citecen Ierusalemera Oliuatzetaco deitzen den menditic, cein baita Ierusalemeco aldean, Sabbath baten bidean.
Then did they return to Jerusalem from the mount that is called of Olives, that is near Jerusalem, a sabbath's journey;
13 Eta sarthu içan ciradenean, igan citecen gambera gora batetara non baitzeuden Pierris eta Iacques, Ioannes eta Andriu, Philippe eta Thomas, Bartholomeo eta Mattheu, Iacques Alpheoren semea eta Simon Zelotes, eta Iuda Iacquesen anayea.
and when they came in, they went up to the upper room, where were abiding both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James, of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zelotes, and Judas, of James;
14 Hauc guciéc perseueratzen çutén gogobatez othoitzatan eta orationetan emaztequin, eta Iesusen ama Mariarequin, eta haren anayequin,
these all were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
15 Eta egun hetan iaiquiric Pierrisec discipuluen artean, erran ceçan (eta cen han berean compainiabat seioguey personaren ingurucoric)
And in these days, Peter having risen up in the midst of the disciples, said, (the multitude also of the names at the same place was, as it were, an hundred and twenty, )
16 Guiçon anayeác, complitu behar cen Scriptura haur, cein aitzinetic erran baitu Spiritu sainduac Dauid-en ahoz, Iudasez, cein içan baita Iesusen hatzamailén guidari:
'Men, brethren, it behoved this Writing that it be fulfilled that beforehand the Holy Spirit spake through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus,
17 Ecen contuco cen gurequin, eta recebitu vkan çuen administratione hunetaco portionea.
because he was numbered among us, and did receive the share in this ministration,
18 Harc bada acquisitu du landabat iniquitatezco alocairutic, eta bere buruä egotziric erditic leher eguin vkan du, eta vrratu içan dirade haren halsar guciac.
this one, indeed, then, purchased a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, and falling headlong, burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed forth,
19 Eta gauça haur eçagutu içan da Ierusalemeco habitant guciéz: hala non deithu içan baita landa hura hayén lengoage propriz, Haceldama: erran nahi baita, odol landa.
and it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, insomuch that that place is called, in their proper dialect, Aceldama, that is, field of blood,
20 Ecen scribatua da Psalmuen liburuän, Eguin bedi haren habitationea desert, eta eztén han habita dadinic. Eta, Haren administrationea har deçan berce batec.
for it hath been written in the book of Psalms: Let his lodging-place become desolate, and let no one be dwelling in it, and his oversight let another take.
21 Behar da beraz gurequin bildu içan diraden guiçon hautaric, Iesus Iauna gure artean ioan eta ethorri içan den dembora gucian,
'It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,
22 Hassiric Ioannesen Baptismotic, gureganic goiti recebitu içan den egunerano, bat eguin dadin haren resurrectionearen testimonio gurequin.
beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day in which he was received up from us, one of these to become with us a witness of his rising again.'
23 Presenta citzaten bada biga, Ioseph Barsabas deitzen cena, cein icen goiticoz Iusto deithu içan baita, eta Matthias.
And they set two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias,
24 Eta othoizte eguiten çutela erran ceçaten, Hic Iauna gucien bihotzac baiteçaguzquic, eracutsac cein elegitu duán bi hautaric,
and having prayed, they said, 'Thou, Lord, who art knowing the heart of all, shew which one thou didst choose of these two
25 Har deçançát ministerio hunetaco eta Apostolutassuneco, portionea, ceinetaric erauci içan baita Iudas, ioan ledinçat bere lekurát.
to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship, from which Judas, by transgression, did fall, to go on to his proper place;'
26 Eta egotz citzaten hayén çortheac, eta eror cedin çorthea Matthiasen gainera, eta consentimendu batez eçar cedin hameca Apostoluen contuan
and they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
