Ọrụ Ndị Ozi 2
1 Mgbe ụbọchị Pentikọọsụ ruru, ha niile zukọtara nʼotu ebe.
When the day of Pentecost came, all the believers were in the same place with one accord.
2 Na mberede, ụzụ yiri nke oke ifufe dị ike sitere nʼeluigwe bịa jupụta nʼụlọ ahụ ha nọ.
Suddenly a sound like a mighty rushing wind came from heaven, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 Ha hụrụ ihe dịka ire ọkụ ka o kewara nọkwasị nʼisi ha nʼotu nʼotu.
Divided tongues that looked like fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them.
4 Ha niile jupụtara na Mmụọ Nsọ, malite ịsụ asụsụ dị iche iche dịka Mmụọ Nsọ nyere ha ike.
Then they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began speaking in other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5 Nʼoge ahụ, ọtụtụ ndị Juu ji obi ọcha na-efe Chineke nọ na Jerusalem. Ndị si na mba dị iche iche nʼokpuru eluigwe.
Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven dwelling in Jerusalem.
6 Igwe mmadụ gbakọtara nʼọnọdụ mgbagwoju anya mgbe ha nụrụ ụzụ ahụ, nʼihi na ha nụrụ ka ha na-asụ asụsụ nke onye ọbụla nʼime ha na-aghọta, nʼasụsụ obodo ha dị iche iche.
When this sound occurred, the multitude came together, and they were bewildered because each one of them heard his own language being spoken.
7 Nʼoke iju anya, ha kwurịtara nʼonwe ha, “Ndị a niile na-ekwu okwu ha abụghị ndị Galili?
They were all astonished and amazed, saying to one another, “Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?
8 Gịnị mere onye ọbụla nʼime anyị ji na-anụ okwu ha na-ekwu nʼasụsụ ala anyị dị iche iche?
How then do we each hear them in our own native languages?
9 Ndị Patia, na ndị Midia, na ndị Elam, ndị bikwa nʼime Mesopotamịa, ndị Judịa, na ndị Kapadosia, ndị Pọntọs, na ndị Eshịa,
Parthians, Medes, Elamites; those who dwell in Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
10 ndị Frigia, na ndị Pamfilia, na ndị Ijipt, na ndị akụkụ Libiya nke dị Sirini nso, na ndị ọbịa si na Rom bịa
Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya that are near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism),
11 (ndị Juu na ndị kwere nʼokpukpe ndị Juu). Ndị Kriit na ndị Arab; anyị na-anụ okwu ha na-ekwu nʼasụsụ anyị dị iche iche banyere ọrụ ebube Chineke.”
Cretans and Arabs—we hear them speaking about the mighty acts of God in our own tongues.”
12 O juru ha anya, gbaakwa ha gharịị. Ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Gịnị ka nke a bụ?”
They were all amazed and greatly perplexed, saying to one another, “What could this mean?”
13 Ma ụfọdụ ndị ọzọ na-akwa ha emo na-asị, “Ndị a bụ ndị mmanya na-egbu.”
But others scoffed at the believers, saying, “They are filled with new wine.”
14 Pita guzoro, ya na ndị ozi iri na otu ahụ welie olu gwa ọgbakọ ahụ okwu, “Ndị Juu na unu ndị bi na Jerusalem, matanụ nke a, geekwanụ ntị na ihe m na-ekwu.
Then Peter stood up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and declared to them, “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words.
15 Ọ bụghị mmanya na-egbu ndị a dị ka unu chere. Lee, ọ bụ naanị elekere itoolu nke ụtụtụ na-akụ.
These men are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only the third hour of the day.
16 Mba, nke a bụ mmezu ihe Juel onye amụma kwuru,
But this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
17 “‘Chineke sịrị, nʼoge ikpeazụ, aga m awụkwasị mmadụ niile Mmụọ m. Ụmụ unu ndị ikom na ụmụ unu ndị inyom ga-ebu amụma, ụmụ okorobịa unu ga-ahụkwa ọhụ, ndị okenye nwoke unu ga-arọ nrọ.
‘In the last days, says God, I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh. Your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.
18 Ọ bụladị ndị ohu m, nwoke ha na nwanyị nʼime ha, ka m ga-awụkwasị Mmụọ m. Ha ga-ebukwa amụma.
Even upon my male and female servants I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
19 Aga m egosi ihe ịtụnanya na mbara eluigwe, gosikwa ihe ịrịbama nʼụwa na nʼokpuru ụwa, ọbara na ọkụ na alulu anwụrụ ọkụ.
I will perform wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below: blood, fire, and a mist of smoke.
20 Anyanwụ ga-agbanwe ghọọ ọchịchịrị, ọnwa ga-aghọkwa ọbara, tupu ụbọchị Onyenwe anyị abịa, bụ ụbọchị ahụ dị ukwu dịkwa ebube.
The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.
21 Ọ ga-erukwa, na onye ọbụla nke na-akpọku aha Onyenwe anyị, ka a ga-azọpụta.’
And everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.’
22 “Ndị Izrel, geenụ ntị nʼokwu a, Jisọs onye Nazaret bụ nwoke Chineke gosiri unu, site nʼọrụ dị ike, nʼọrụ ebube nakwa ihe ịrịbama niile nke Chineke rụrụ nʼetiti unu site nʼaka ya, dịka unu ji anya unu hụ.
“Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with miracles, wonders, and signs that God did through him in your midst, just as you yourselves well know,
23 Onye a ka e weere nyefee unu nʼaka site na nzube nke Chineke buru ụzọ tụọ atụmatụ ya, na dịka o siri mara na mbụ, ọ bụ ya ka unu gburu ma kpọgidekwa nʼobe site nʼaka ndị na-amaghị iwu.
this man, who was delivered up by the deliberate plan and foreknowledge of God, you took and put to death, having him nailed to the cross by the hands of lawless men.
24 Ma Chineke emela ka o site nʼọnwụ bilie mgbe ọ tọpụchara ihe mgbu nke ọnwụ, nʼihi na ọnwụ enweghị ike ijide ya.
But God raised him up, releasing him from the pangs of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.
25 Devid kwuru banyere ya, “‘Ana m ahụ Onyenwe anyị ka ọ na-anọgide nʼihu m mgbe niile. Nʼihi na ọ nọ nʼaka nri m. Agaghị m ama jijiji.
For David says about him, ‘I saw the Lord always before me, for he is at my right hand so that I will not be shaken.
26 Ya mere, ọṅụ jupụtara m obi, ire m na-aṅụrịkwa ọṅụ; anụ ahụ m ga-ezukwa ike nʼolileanya,
Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue rejoiced; moreover, my flesh will dwell in hope.
27 nʼihi na ị gaghị ahapụ mkpụrụobi m nʼala mmụọ, ị gakwaghị ahapụ anụ ahụ nke Onye gị dị nsọ ka ọ hụ ire ure. (Hadēs g86)
For yoʋ will not abandon my soul to Hades, nor will yoʋ let yoʋr Holy One see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
28 I mere ka m mara ụzọ nke ndụ; ị ga-emekwa ka m jupụta nʼọṅụ nʼihu gị.’
Yoʋ have made known to me the paths of life; yoʋ will fill me with joy by yoʋr presence.’
29 “Ụmụnna m, eji m nkwuwa okwu na-agwa unu banyere nna nna anyị Devid, bụ onye nwụrụ anwụ e lie ya. Ili ya dịkwa nʼetiti anyị taa.
“Brothers, I can say to you with confidence concerning our patriarch David that he died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
30 Ma ọ bụ onye amụma marakwa na Chineke jiri ịṅụ iyi kwee ya nkwa na otu nʼime ụmụ ya ga-anọkwasị nʼocheeze ya.
So then, because he was a prophet and knew that God had sworn an oath to him that from among his descendants, according to the flesh, he would raise up the Christ to sit on his throne,
31 Ebe o buuru ụzọ hụ ihe ga-eme nʼoge dị nʼihu, o kwuru banyere mbilite nʼọnwụ nke Kraịst, mgbe ọ sịrị, a hapụghị ya nʼala mmụọ; anụ ahụ ya ahụghịkwa ire ure. (Hadēs g86)
David foresaw what would happen and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, saying that his soul was not abandoned to Hades and that his flesh did not see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
32 Ọ bụ Jisọs a ka Chineke mere ka ọ dị ndụ ọzọ. Anyị niile bụkwa ndị akaebe banyere ya.
This Jesus God has raised up, of which we are all witnesses.
33 Ebe ọ bụ na e buliela ya elu nʼaka nri Chineke. Ọ natala Mmụọ Nsọ dịka Nna ya kwere na nkwa. Ihe a unu na-ahụ na nke unu na-anụ bụ onyinye ya ọ wụkwasịrị anyị.
Therefore, having been exalted to the right hand of God and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this that you now see and hear.
34 Ọ dịghị oge Devid jiri rigoro nʼeluigwe, ma ya onwe ya sịrị, “‘Onyenwe anyị gwara Onyenwe m sị, “Nọdụ ala nʼaka nri m,
For David did not ascend to heaven, but he himself says, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand
35 ruo mgbe m ga-eme ndị iro gị ihe mgbakwasị ụkwụ nye ụkwụ gị.”’
until I make yoʋr enemies a footstool for yoʋr feet.”’
36 “Ya mere, ana m eme ka ezinaụlọ Izrel niile mara nke ọma, na Chineke emeela Jisọs a onye unu kpọgidere nʼobe ka ọ bụrụ Onyenwe anyị na Kraịst.”
Therefore, let all the house of Israel know with certainty that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.”
37 Mgbe ha nụrụ ihe ndị a, akọnuche ha mara ha ikpe. Ha sịrị Pita na ndị ozi ndị ọzọ, “Ụmụnna, gịnị ka anyị ga-eme?”
When they heard this, they were pierced to the heart and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what should we do?”
38 Ma Pita sịrị ha, “Chegharịanụ unu niile. Ka e mekwa unu baptizim nʼaha Jisọs Kraịst, maka mgbaghara mmehie unu. Unu ga-anatakwa onyinye nke Mmụọ Nsọ.
Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 Nkwa a dịrị unu na ụmụ ụmụ unu na mmadụ niile nọ nʼebe dị anya, dịkwara ndị niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke ga-akpọ ka ha bịakwute ya.”
For this promise is for you, for your children, and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God calls to himself.”
40 O jiri ọtụtụ okwu ndị ọzọ gbaa ama, ma dụọkwa ha ọdụ sị, “Sitenụ nʼetiti ọgbọ a jọrọ njọ zọpụta onwe unu.”
With many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, “Be saved from this crooked generation.”
41 E mere ndị nabatara okwu ya baptizim, ha dị ihe ruru puku mmadụ atọ, a gụnyere nʼọnụọgụgụ ha.
Then those who gladly received his word were baptized, and about three thousand souls were added on that day.
42 Ha nyefere onwe ha nʼozizi nke ndị ozi, ya na ife ofufe na ịnyawa achịcha nakwa ikpe ekpere.
They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
43 Onye ọbụla nʼime ha jupụtara na egwu, nʼihi na ndị ozi na-arụ ọtụtụ ọrụ ebube, na ihe ịrịbama dị iche iche.
A sense of awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done by the apostles.
44 Ndị niile kwere ekwe nọkọtara ọnụ, nwekọkwaa ihe niile ọnụ.
All who believed were together and had all things in common.
45 Ha rere ihe ha nwere na nke ha kpatara, kenye onye ọbụla dịka mkpa ya siri dị.
They were selling their possessions and belongings, and distributing the proceeds to all, as anyone had need.
46 Ha gara nʼihu na-ezukọta nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ikpe ekpere kwa ụbọchị. Ha na-erikọkwa nri nʼụlọ ha, nʼobi ọṅụ na ekele.
Day by day as they continued meeting together with one accord in the temple courts and breaking bread from house to house, they shared food together with gladness and simplicity of heart,
47 Dịka ha gara nʼihu na-eto Chineke, ha nwetara ihuọma nʼaka ndị mmadụ. Onyenwe anyị na-atụkwasịkwara ha ndị a na-azọpụta kwa ụbọchị.
praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.
