Acts 1
1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
MAING Teopilus, i wiadar tapin kasoi duen meakan, me Iesus kotin tapiadar, duen a wiawia o kaukawewe karos.
2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
Lao lel ran en a peukedala mon a kotin kakalik ong wanporon akan, me a kotin piladar ren Ngen saraui,
3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
Me a pil kotin kasansale ong pein i ieias ki kilel melel toto murin a kalokolok o a pwara dong irail ran paeisok o kapakaparokeki duen tiak en wein Kot.
4 And, being assembled together with [them], commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, [saith he], ye have heard of me.
A ni a kotikot re’rail, a kotin kakaliki ong irail, ren der kowei sang Ierusalem, a ren auiaui, inau en Sam lao pwaidar, me komail ronga sang ia er.
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
Pwe Ioanes wia paptais ki pil, a komail pan paptais kila Ngen saraui ni eu ran me koren.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Irail lao pokon penaer, rap kalelapok re a potoan ong: Maing, ansau wet re pan kotin kapure dong Israel wei o?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
A kotin masani ong irail: Menda re omail, en asa ansau de auer, me Sam okila nan pein a manaman?
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
A komail pan ale manaman en Ngen saraui, me pan di po omail; komail ap pan ai saunkadede kan nan Ierusalem, o Iudäa pon o Samaria, o lel wong irepan sappa.
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
A lao masanier mepukat, ap peukedalar ni ar kangkakil, pali en dapok pali idandalar i sang mon mas arail.
10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
Ni ar kilekilang nanlang, ni ansaun a kotidala, kilang, ol riamen mi nan likau pwetepwet, kotikot re’rail.
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
Me pil masani: Ol en Kaliläa komail, da me komail sarakidang nanlang? Iei Iesus, me peukedala nanlang sang komail, a pan kotin puredo, duen komail udialer a kotidalar.
12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day’s journey.
Irail ap purelang Ierusalem sang dol o, me ad a Oliwe, me koren iong Ierusalem; a doo sang al en sapat pot.
13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas [the brother] of James.
Irail lao kotilong ong, ap kotidang nan pera poa, wasa re kin kotikoteta, irail karos: Petrus, o Ioanes, o Iakopus, o Andreas, o Pilipus, o Tomas, o Partolomäus, o Matäus, o Iakopus nain Alpäus, o Simon Selotes, o Iudas ri en Iakopus.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
Mepukat karos wiaki eu podidi ong kapakap, li akai pil iang irail, o pil Maria in en Iesus o ri a ol akan.
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty, )
Ni ran oko Petrus ap uda nan pung en saulang kan masani (irail me impan epukiriek):
16 Men [and] brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.
Ri ai kan, kisin likau en pungala, me Ngen saraui kalokaia ki Dawid mas o iran Iudas, me karedo, me saikidi Iesus oko.
17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.
Pwe a pil wadawad ong kitail, er o aleer pwais a dodok wet.
18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
Nan ol men et pwaine kidar pwain en a sapung sap eu, a ni a dikaudi, ap lop pasang o kanangan kaped a ap poie sang.
19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.
Toun Ierusalem karos asada met. Ari, sap o adanekila akeldama ni pein arail lokaia; iet wewe: Sap en nta.
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.
Pwe a intingidier nan puk en psalm: Im a en liselipingala o solar, me pan kauson lole, a amen me pan ale a koa.
21 Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Ari, amen sang ren ol akan, me poden iang kitail er, ni ansau me Kaun Iesus kotikot re atail,
22 Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.
Sang ni muein paptais en Ioanes kokodo lel ni ran o, me a kotin peukada sang kitail er, pan iang kitail wiala saunkadede en a kotin iasada.
23 And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Irail ari kileledi riamen: Iosep iei Parsapas, me pil ad a Iostos o Matias.
24 And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all [men], shew whether of these two thou hast chosen,
Irail ap kapakap masani: Maing, ir me kotin mangi mongiong en amen amen, re kotin kasansaleda, is me re kotin pilada ren me riamen et,
25 That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.
Pwe i en ale pwais a dodok wet o koa en wanporon, me Iudas pupe sang, pwen kolang deu a.
26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Irail ap kadoropwada. A doropwa ko ong Matias; i ari iang wadawad ong wanporon ekamen oko.
