< Acts 12 >

1 Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth [his] hands to vex certain of the church.
Leleꞌ naa, mane Herodes tao doidꞌoso neu Lamatuaꞌ Yesus atahori Nara ruma.
2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
Ana parenda atahori fo reu tati risa Yakobis. Yakobis naa, Yohanis aꞌa na.
3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
Yakobis mamate na, tao malangga Yahudi ra rala nara ramahoꞌo. Herodes nita ma, ana boe fua-fuaꞌ a. De nandaa no fai monaeꞌ fo rae Feta Roti Nda Tao Bibit Sa, ana denu atahori reu humu Petrus fai.
4 And when he had apprehended him, he put [him] in prison, and delivered [him] to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
Ara humu rala e, de tao bui rala neu. Boe ma ara dudꞌu soldꞌadꞌu tanaꞌ haa fo ranea bangganggatiꞌ Petrus hatuꞌ-rerelon. Tanaꞌ esa naa, atahori haa. Tungga Herodes hihii na, ana nae naꞌetuꞌ Petrus dedꞌea na sia atahori hetar mata na, mete ma basa fefetas naa.
5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.
Dadꞌi leleꞌ Petrus mia bui rala, Lamatuaꞌ Yesus atahori Nara hule-oꞌe nda ramaeꞌtu sa, roꞌe Lamatualain mete-seꞌu e.
6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
Mbilaꞌ neu ma, Herodes nae naꞌetuꞌ Petrus dedꞌeat na mia atahori hetar mata nara. Tetembaꞌ naa, ara paꞌa Petrus no rante rua mia bui rala. Ana sungguꞌ mia soldꞌadꞌu rua taladꞌa nara. Ma soldꞌadꞌu ruma ranea sia lelesu mataꞌ.
7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon [him], and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from [his] hands.
Aiboiꞌ ma, Lamatualain ate Na mia sorga nambariiꞌ sia naa, ma kama a naronda manggareloꞌ. Ana fafae Petrus nae, “Petrus, e! Fela lai-lai!” Boe ma rante besiꞌ a etu mia lima na neuꞌ ena.
8 And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.
Basa ma, ate a denu e nae, “Olu badꞌu ma no laopei ma!” Petrus olu basa ma, ate a denu e fai oi, “Olu badꞌu deaꞌ ma, fo tungga au leo!”
9 And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.
Boe ma Petrus tungga e, ma lao hela bui a. Te Petrus nae neꞌo, eni nalamein. Te onaꞌ o, dadꞌi taꞌo naa.
10 When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.
Ara seli mamana naneaꞌ kaesan no karuan ma, ara losa lelesu besiꞌ a. Lelesu a soi ao na, de ruꞌa se dea reu tungga dalaꞌ mana kota neu. Aiboiꞌ ma, Lamatualainꞌ ate Na lao hela Petrus neu naa.
11 And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and [from] all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
Ate naa mopo ma, Petrus medꞌa nae, “Memaꞌ tebꞌe! Ia naa au feꞌe bubꞌuluꞌ ena. Lamatualain tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ haitua ate Na fo mboꞌi au mia Herodes lima na. Lamatualain tao taꞌo naa, fo atahori Yahudi ra dudꞌuꞌa deulakaꞌ na afiꞌ dai au.”
12 And when he had considered [the thing], he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.
Basa ma, Petrus nisiꞌ inaꞌ esa ume na. Inaꞌ a, naran, Maria. Eni, Yohanis maman. Yohanis nara fea na, Markus. Sia naa atahori hetar raꞌabꞌue hule-oꞌe, roꞌe Lamatualain tulu-fali Petrus no dedꞌeat na.
13 And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.
Petrus losa naa boe ma, ana dedeu ma nggasi mia lelesu ineꞌ a. Boe ma ate inaꞌ esa, nara na Rode, neu nakaloloik seka mana nemaꞌ naa.
14 And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.
Ana rena Petrus hara na boe ma, nahine neuꞌ ena. Namahoꞌo seli, de lai-laiꞌ rala neu, nafadꞌe atahori ra nae, “We! Petrus rii-rii sia deaꞌ!” Te ana liliiꞌ de nda soi lelesu fee Petrus sa.
15 And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.
Te ara rataa rae, “Hokoꞌ to ma! Afiꞌ andiaoꞌ taꞌo naa!” Te ana labꞌan nae, “Hokoꞌ! Tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Petrus hara na! Ana sia deaꞌ naa!” Te ara subꞌa-subꞌa a rae, “Mbei ma, atahori naa, Lamatualain ate Na mia sorga mana nanea Petrus.”
16 But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened [the door], and saw him, they were astonished.
Ara feꞌe ralelea, te Petrus akaꞌ a nggasi nakandondooꞌ a, losa ara reu soi lelesu a. Soi rala ma, ara titindindi, huu naa, Petrus.
17 But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.
Petrus lalaes lima na fo ara nenee. Boe ma ana dui taꞌo bee de Lamatualain soi eni mia bui a. Basa de, ana denu se nae, “Mi mifadꞌe basa ia ra neu Yakobis no dedenu feaꞌ ra.” Boe ma, Petrus lao nisiꞌ mamana feaꞌ.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
Mbila fefetu na, soldꞌadꞌu mana maneaꞌ ra mete te Petrus nese ena. Ara bingun ma ramatau seli, huu nda ritaꞌ rae dei fo saa dadꞌi neu sira sa.
19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that [they] should be put to death. And he went down from Judæa to Cæsarea, and [there] abode.
Herodes bubꞌuluꞌ ma, ana parenda se reu sangga Petrus. Te nda randaa ro e sa. Boe ma Herodes denu paresaꞌ soldꞌadꞌu mana maneaꞌ ra. Paresaꞌ basa ma, ana denu tao risa basa se. Basa boe ma, Herodes lao hela Yudea, de leo sia kota Kaisarea.
20 And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s [country].
Leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori mia kota rua, naran Tirus ma Sidꞌon. Ara hii hasa nanaat sia mane Herodes nusa na. Te dooꞌ ena, maneꞌ a namusuꞌ no se. De ara rala ralaꞌ sa rae reu badameꞌ ro e. Ara here nononggoꞌ esa fo reu randaa ro Herodes sia Kaisarea. Losa naa ma, reu raꞌabꞌue ro atahori sa sia maneꞌ a ume na, naran Blastus. Eni malangga sia maneꞌ a ume panggat na. Ara rala haraꞌ sa ro Blastus, fo ana dadꞌi mana kokoe-nanasiꞌ nara, fo soi dalaꞌ fee se randaa ro Herodes.
21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.
Basa de, Herodes naꞌaheiꞌ simboꞌ se, de raꞌetuꞌ rala faiꞌ sa fo randaa. Faiꞌ naa, ara tao fefetas monaeꞌ. Herodes olu badꞌu panggat na, de endoꞌ mia kadera parenda na. Boe ma ana olaꞌ no se.
22 And the people gave a shout, [saying, It is] the voice of a god, and not of a man.
Atahori mana sia naa ra rena hara na, ma ara koa botiꞌ e rae, “Rena haraꞌ naa! Ia nda atahori haran sa! Haraꞌ ia, meulaun seli. De laꞌi songgo e!”
23 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
Aiboiꞌ ma, Lamatualain ate Na esa mia sorga fee Herodes hedꞌis esa, huu ana simbo kokoaꞌ ena, ma seti hendi Lamatualain. De lalatiꞌ ra raa Herodes aon losa mate.
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
No basa manadadꞌiꞌ naa ra, Lamatualain Dudꞌui Malole Na boe nenedꞌui-bꞌenggaꞌ, ma atahori mana tungga Lamatuaꞌ Yesus Dala Masodꞌa Na boe ramaheta.
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled [their] ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.
Barnabas no Saulus rendi basa atahori Antiokia ra tutulu-fafali nara Yerusalem reu ma, ara baliꞌ risiꞌ Antiokia. Ara ro ana soruꞌ esa, naran Yohanis. Te ara o roꞌe e, rae Markus boe.
