Acts 12
1 Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.
I ANSAU nanmarki Erodes pikikidi kame akai nan momodisou.
2 He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
I ari kamata kila kodlas Iakopus ri en Ioanes.
3 When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.
A lao kilanger, me Sus oko peren kidar, ap pil saikidi Petrus. Nan i ansaun prot somut.
4 When he had arrested him, he put him in prison and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
A saikidi i o kilang i nan imateng, o kasilaki i pwin en saunpei paieu. Pamen me wia eu pwin, pwe murin pasa a men kasale ong pokon i.
5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
Petrus ari sensal nan imateng a momodisou poden kapakapki i ren Kot.
6 The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.
Pongpong mon Erodes pan kasansaleda i, a saimokela nan pung en saunpei riamen, salikidi sal mata riapot. A silepa ko masamasan imateng mon wanim ko.
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Stand up quickly!” His chains fell off his hands.
A kilang, amen tounlang en Kaun o pwarado o marain eu sarada nan imateng o. I ari pikir Petrus ni pangepang o kapaurida i masani: Paurida pitipit! Sal mata ko ap pupedi sang ni lim a kan.
8 The angel said to him, “Get dressed and put on your sandals.” He did so. He said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
A tounlang masani ong i: Pirapirada o suteda! I ari wiadar met. A ap masani ong i: Upupedi o idauen ia do!
9 And he went out and followed him. He didn’t know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
I ari pedoido sang o idauenla i, o a sota dedeki, me melel en tounlang a wiawia. Pwe a kiki ong, me a auramandar.
10 When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.
Ira lao kotin daulier pwin en silepa kaieu, o kariau, ira ap lel ong wanim mata, me salong kanim, i me pein ritida mo’ra. Ira ari kotila pon al apot. A tounlang ap madang kotin rir sang mo a.
11 When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”
A Petrus lao dedeki me wiauier, ap masaniada: I ap asa melel, me Kaun o kotin poronedo sapwilim a tounlang o kapit ia sang ni pa en Erodes o sang en Sus akan ar masamasan.
12 Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
A ni a kotin madamadaua, ap lel ong im en Maria in en Ioanes, me pil ad a Markus, wasa me toto pokon ia wia kapakap.
13 When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
A ni en Petrus a letelet ni wanim o, lidu men, ad a Rode, ap pwara dong rong.
14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, she didn’t open the gate for joy, but ran in and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
A lao asa kapitie en Petrus, a sota ritingada wanim o pweki a peren. A a tanglong katitiki, me Petrus kot mon wanim o.
15 They said to her, “You are crazy!” But she insisted that it was so. They said, “It is his angel.”
A irail indai ong i: Koe iakala. A i kelail indada, me melel. Re ap inda: Kaidin i, a sapwilim a tounlang o.
16 But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him and were amazed.
A Petrus wiawia leteleteta. Irail lao ritingada o kilanger i, re ap puriamui kilar.
17 But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place.
A i olole irail, en nenenla. A ap masani ong irail duen Kaun o, me kotin kalua i sang nan imateng o, o pil masanier: Kaireki Iakopus o saulang kan mepukat! I ap kotiei sang kotilang ekis wasa.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
A lao ran pasanger, saunpei kan ap puriamuiki kaualap en Petrus a pitilar.
19 When Herod had sought for him and didn’t find him, he examined the guards, then commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
A Erodes lao idok o so diaradar, ap itetokenkone silepa ko o masani, ren kamela. I ari kotilang Säsarea sang Ierusalem kaukauson ia.
20 Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.
A Erodes ongiongidar pan men Tirus o Sidon, re ap wiaki eu poto dong i kadekadeke Plastus saunkoa en nanmarki o poeki muei mau, pwe re kin memaureki sap en nanmarki.
21 On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
A kadekadeo eu ran Erodes ap puriong likau en nanmarki, kaipokedi pon mol o kapakaparok ong irail.
22 The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
A aramas akan ngisingis indada: Nan i kapitie en kot amen, a kaidin en aramas.
23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.
A madang amen tounlang en Kaun o poki i, pweki a so wauneki Kot. A maas akan me kangala i; i ari mela.
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
A masan en Kot pwaida o lok sili.
25 Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John who was called Mark.
Parnapas i Paulus puredo sang Ierusalem, ira lao kanikielar ar dodok, o ira pil ukedo Ioanes, me ad a Markus.
