Acts 10
1 Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,
Mme mo Kaesarea go ne go nna mo eteledipele wa mophato wa ntwa ya Seroma gotwe Korenelio, e le molaodi wa mophato wa Itale.
2 a devout man, and one who feared God with all his house, who gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always prayed to God.
E ne e le motho yo o ratang Modimo, a bile a o tlotla thata, le ba ntlo ya gagwe ba ne ba ntse jalo. O ne a aba ka mowa o o gololesegileng a bile a le motho wa thapelo.
3 At about the ninth hour of the day, he clearly saw in a vision an angel of God coming to him and saying to him, “Cornelius!”
Tshokologo nngwe ya letsatsi ya re a santse a ntse, ka nako e ka nna ya boraro, a bona ponatshegelo, mme mo ponatshegelong e, a bona moengele wa Modimo a tla kwa go ene a re, “Korenelio”.
4 He, fastening his eyes on him and being frightened, said, “What is it, Lord?” He said to him, “Your prayers and your gifts to the needy have gone up for a memorial before God.
Korenelio a re, “O batlang Morena!” Moengele a fetola a re, “Dithapelo tsa gago le dimpho tsa gago Modimo o di bonye.
5 Now send men to Joppa, and get Simon, who is also called Peter.
Jaanong roma banna bangwe kwa Jopa go ya go batla mongwe yo o bidiwang Simone Petere, yo o nnang le Simone wa mosuga matlalo, go bapa le lotshitshi lwa lewatle, mme lo mo kope gore a lo etele.”
6 He is staying with a tanner named Simon, whose house is by the seaside.
7 When the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier of those who waited on him continually.
Erile moengele a sena go tsamaya, Korenelio a bitsa batlhanka ba ntlo ya gagwe ba le babedi le motlhabani yo o boifang Modimo, mongwe wa ba ba ikanyegang,
8 Having explained everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
mme a ba bolelela se se diragetseng a bo a ba roma kwa Jopa.
9 Now on the next day as they were on their journey and got close to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray at about noon.
Erile letsatsi le le latelang, fa ba atamela motse, Petere a tlhatlogela kwa godimo ga ntlo ya gagwe go rapela. Go ne go le motshegare ebile o ne a tshwerwe ke tlala, mme erile dijo tsa motshegare di sa ntse di baakanngwa a bona ponatshegelo.
10 He became hungry and desired to eat, but while they were preparing, he fell into a trance.
11 He saw heaven opened and a certain container descending to him, like a great sheet let down by four corners on the earth,
O ne a bona legodimo le bulega, mme a bona letsela le legolo le lepeleditswe ka dinaka tsa lone tse nne, le fitlha fa fatshe.
12 in which were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, reptiles, and birds of the sky.
Mme mo letseleng go ne go le diphologolo tsa mefuta yotlhe, dinoga le dinonyane (tse di idiwang Bajuta go di ja).
13 A voice came to him, “Rise, Peter, kill and eat!”
Mme lentswe la mo raya la re, “Tsamaya o bolaye o je nngwe ya tsone e o e batlang.”
14 But Peter said, “Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.”
Petere a fetola a re, “Nnyaa, Morena, ga ke ise nke ke je diphologolo tse di ntseng jaana mo botshelong jwa me, gonne di a idiwa ka melao ya rona ya Sejuta.”
15 A voice came to him again the second time, “What God has cleansed, you must not call unclean.”
Lentswe la bua gape, la re, “Se ganetsanye le Modimo! Fa o re selo se tshwanetse go jewa go raya gore se siame.”
16 This was done three times, and immediately the thing was received up into heaven.
Mme ponatshegelo e ya direga gararo. Mme letsela la boela gape kwa legodimong.
17 Now while Peter was very perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon’s house, stood before the gate,
Petere o ne a akabala thata gore ponatshegelo e ka ne e raya eng? O ne a tshwanetse go dirang? Mme jaana banna ba ba romilweng ke Korenelio ba ne ba bone ntlo e, mme ba bo ba eme kwa ntle fa kgorong,
18 and called and asked whether Simon, who was also called Peter, was lodging there.
ba botsa gore a ntlo e ke yone e Simone Petere o nnang mo go yone.
19 While Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men seek you.
Mme erile Petere a sa ntse a hakgamaletse ponatshegelo, Mowa O O Boitshepo wa mo raya wa re, “Banna ba bararo ba tsile kwa go wena.
20 But arise, get down, and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them.”
Fologela kwa tlase o kopane le bone mme o tsamaye nabo. Sengwe le sengwe se siame, ke ba romile.”
21 Peter went down to the men, and said, “Behold, I am he whom you seek. Why have you come?”
Jalo Petere a fologa, mme a re, “Ke nna yo lo mmatlang. Jaanong ke eng se lo se batlang.”
22 They said, “Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man and one who fears God, and well spoken of by all the nation of the Jews, was directed by a holy angel to invite you to his house, and to listen to what you say.”
Mme jalo ba mmolelela kaga Korenelio molaodi wa Mo-Roma yo o siameng wa Modimo, yo o neng a itsege thata mo Bajuteng le jaaka moengele a ne a mo laetse go ya go bitsa Petere go tla go mmolelela se Modimo o batlang a se dira.
23 So he called them in and provided a place to stay. On the next day Peter arose and went out with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
Mme Petere a ba amogela a bo a ba fa boroko sigong joo. Letsatsi le le tlang a tsamaya nabo, ba na le (badumedi) ba ba tswang Jopa.
24 On the next day they entered into Caesarea. Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his relatives and his near friends.
Ba goroga mo Kaesarea letsatsi le le latelang, mme Korenelio o ne a ba letile a bile a biditse ba losika lwa gagwe le ditsala tsa gagwe tsa botlhokwa go nna le Petere.
25 When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, fell down at his feet, and worshiped him.
Erile fa Petere a tsena mo ga gagwe, Korenelio a wela fa fatshe fa pele ga gagwe a mo obamela.
26 But Peter raised him up, saying, “Stand up! I myself am also a man.”
Mme Petere a re, “Ema! Le nna ka nosi ke motho!”
27 As he talked with him, he went in and found many gathered together.
Mme a ema ba buisanya ka sebakanyana ba bo ba ya kwa ba bangwe ba neng ba phuthegetse teng.
28 He said to them, “You yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man who is a Jew to join himself or come to one of another nation, but God has shown me that I shouldn’t call any man unholy or unclean.
Mme Petere a ba raya a re, “Lo a itse gore go kgatlhanong, le melao ya Sejuta gore ke tsene mo lolwapeng lwa Modichaba. Mme Modimo o mpontshitse mo ponatshegelong gore ke seka ka ba ka lebela ope kwa tlase.
29 Therefore I also came without complaint when I was sent for. I ask therefore, why did you send for me?”
Mme ka tla fela jaaka ke bidiwa. Jaanong mpolelelang se lo se batlang.”
30 Cornelius said, “Four days ago, I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour, I prayed in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing
Mme Korenelio a fetola a re, “Malatsi a mane a a fetileng ke ne ke rapela jaaka gale ka nako e ya maitseboa, fa ka tshoganetso monna a ema fa pele ga me a apere seaparo se se galalelang!
31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to the needy are remembered in the sight of God.
Mme a nthaya a re, ‘Korenelio, thapelo tsa gago di utlwetse le dimpho tsa gago di lemogilwe ke Modimo!
32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, who is also called Peter. He is staying in the house of a tanner named Simon, by the seaside. When he comes, he will speak to you.’
Jaanong roma banna bangwe kwa Jopa go itsise Simone Petere, yo o nnang mo motseng wa ga Simone, wa mosuga matlalo, fa lotshitshing lwa lewatle.’
33 Therefore I sent to you at once, and it was good of you to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God to hear all things that have been commanded you by God.”
Mme ke ne ka re o ye go bidiwa, mme o dirile sentle ka go tla ka bonako. Jaanong ke rona ba, re letile fa pele ga Morena, re batla go itse se o se go boleletseng go se re bolelela!”
34 Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly I perceive that God doesn’t show favoritism;
Mme Petere a fetola a re, “Ke bona sentle gore Bajuta ga se bone fela ba Modimo o ba ratang!
35 but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
Mo chabeng nngwe le nngwe o na le ba ba mo obamelang ba bile ba dira dilo tse di siameng mme mo go ene ba a amogelesega.
36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all—
Ke tlhomamisa gore lo utlwile kaga Mafoko a a Molemo a batho ba Iseraele, gore go na le kagiso mo Modimong ka Jesu, Mesia, yo e leng Morena wa (lobopo) lotlhe. Molaetsa o, o aname le Judea yotlhe, o simolotswe ke Johane wa Mokolobetsi mo Galalea.
37 you yourselves know what happened, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
Mme ga go belaesege go itse gore Jesu wa Nasaretha o ne a tlodiwa ke Modimo ka Mowa o o Boitshepo le ka nonofo, mme o ne a tsamaya a dira molemo a bile a fodisa botlhe ba ba neng ba na le mewa e e maswe, gonne Modimo o ne o na nae.
39 We are witnesses of everything he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they also killed, hanging him on a tree.
“Mme rona baaposetoloi re basupi ba tsotlhe tse o di dirileng mo Iseraele yotlhe le mo Jerusalema kwa o neng a bolaelwa teng mo sefapaanong.
40 God raised him up the third day and gave him to be revealed,
Mme Modimo o ne wa mo tshedisa gape morago ga malatsi a mararo, mme wa mmontsha basupi bangwe ba Modimo o neng o sale o ba tlhopha pele, e seng mongwe le mongwe, mme e leng rona ba re neng ree ja re ba ree nwa nae a sena go tsoga mo baswing.
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses who were chosen before by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
42 He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that this is he who is appointed by God as the Judge of the living and the dead.
Mme o ne a re roma go ya go rera Mafoko a a Molemo gongwe le gongwe le go supa gore Jesu o beilwe go nna Moatlhodi wa botlhe, baswi le batshedi.
43 All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins.”
Mme le baporofiti botlhe ba kwadile ka ga gagwe, ba re mongwe le mongwe yo o dumelang mo go ene o tlaa itshwarelwa dibe ka leina la gagwe.”
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those who heard the word.
Mme erile Petere a sa ntse a bua dilo tse Mowa O O Boitshepo wa fologela mo go botlhe ba ba neng ba reeditse!
45 They of the circumcision who believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was also poured out on the Gentiles.
Mme Bajuta ba ba neng ba tsile le Petere ba ne ba hakgamala gore neo ya Mowa O O Boitshepo e ka newa le Badichaba!
46 For they heard them speaking in other languages and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
Mme go ne go ka se ka ga nna le pelaelo, gonne ba ba utlwile ba bua ka diteme ba bile ba galaletsa Modimo. Petere o ne a botsa a re, “A mongwe o ka gana gore ke ba kolobetse, ka gore jaanong ba amogetse Mowa O O Boitshepo fela jaaka re ne ra o amogela?”
47 “Can anyone forbid these people from being baptized with water? They have received the Holy Spirit just like us.”
48 He commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay some days.
Mme o ne a dira jalo, a ba kolobetsa mo leineng la ga Jesu, Mesia. Morago Korenelio a mo kopa go nna le bone malatsinyana.
