Katwa Nono Katwa 10
1 Nene umong unit waduku nanya kagbirin Siseriya, nin lissan Konoliyus, kusoja kudyawa ligonzin na Italiya.
At Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion in what was called the Italian Regiment.
2 Awadi unit in biya kang, urika na nawadin dortu Kutelle nin kilari me vat; awa nizu anit na Yahudawa ikubu gbardang anin suzu inlira kiti Kutelle kolome liri.
He and all his household were devout and God-fearing. He gave generously to the people and prayed to God regularly.
3 Kubi nikoro kutir nin wui, ayene kanang nanya namoro alau gono kadura Kutelle din cinu udak kitime. Gono kadure woroghe, “Konoloyus!”
One day at about the ninth hour, he had a clear vision of an angel of God who came to him and said, “Cornelius!”
4 Konoliyus yenje gono kadure fiu daghe aworo, “Inyaghari unit udya?” Gono kadure woroghe, “Nlirafe nin nimon ile na udin filluzunu akimon mun nghana kite nafo unizun lizzinu inbun Kutelle.
Cornelius stared at him in fear and asked, “What is it, Lord?” The angel answered, “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have ascended as a memorial offering before God.
5 Nene to anit udu kagbirin Joppa idak nin nit lissame Simon, urika na idin kitin yiccughe tutung Bitrus.
Now send men to Joppa to call for a man named Simon who is called Peter.
6 Nin Kutana lissame Simon, urika na kilari me din biu kurawa.”
He is staying with Simon the tanner, whose house is by the sea.”
7 Na gono kadura Kutellen mala uliru ninghe, Koloniyus yiccila acin awaba kilarime, nin kusojako na kuwadi su Kutelle usujada nanya nasoja na iwa dighe katwa.
When the angel who spoke to him had gone, Cornelius called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among his attendants.
8 Konoliyus belle nani vat nimon ilen na isu anin tonani udu u Joppa.
He explained what had happened and sent them to Joppa.
9 Nin liri liba nin kubi nikoro kutocin, na iwadi nanya ncin mine inin da kupo kippin, Bitrus ghana kulari kitene ati nlira.
The next day at about the sixth hour, as the men were approaching the city on their journey, Peter went up on the roof to pray.
10 Kupkon da anin yita ninsu li nimonmon, na anite wadi likanju nimoli, ayene amoro alau,
He became hungry and wanted something to eat, but while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance.
11 anin yene kitenen puno kidowo nin nimonmon nafo kukuzunntolsu, imone gbardang nafo kukuzu ucin tolu kutiin, iwa tolti kunin nin nasari anasme.
He saw heaven open and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners.
12 Nanya kunin vat ninawan tene nabunu anas nin nimon ile na idin kurtu kutiin, a ayiin kitene kani.
It contained all kinds of four-footed animals and reptiles of the earth, as well as birds of the air.
13 Liwui tunna li lirina ninghe: “Fita Bitrus, ubo uli.”
Then a voice said to him: “Get up, Peter, kill and eat!”
14 Bitrus woro, “Na nanera ba, Cikilari; nan sa leu imon na idi nanzang sa dinon ba.”
“No, Lord!” Peter answered. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.”
15 Ama liwuiye daa kitime umba: “Ile imon na Kutelle nwesse yenju uwa woro idinin dinong.”
The voice spoke to him a second time: “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.”
16 Na ayine ile imone so titat kiteene itunna ighantina kugbetue udu kitene kani.
This happened three times, and all at once the sheet was taken back up into heaven.
17 Nene na Bitrus nyene amoron nwui anin din kpilizu nyanghar adi, awa ba na Kaniliyos ntoo nani ida yisina kibulung ghe, na itirino kilari kaa na aduku.
While Peter was puzzling over the meaning of the vision, the men sent by Cornelius found Simon’s house and approached the gate.
18 Inin yicila itirino sa Siman, ulenge na idin yicu ghe Bitrus, sosin kikane.
They called out to ask if Simon called Peter was staying there.
19 Na Bitrus se wa din kpilzu kitene na moron wui ye, Uruhu belin ghe, “Yene, anit atat nalime din piziru fi.
As Peter continued to reflect on the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men are looking for you.
20 Fitaa utolu unin nyaa ligowe nan ghinu, na uwann nari unyiu ligowe nan ghinu, na uwan nari unyiu ligowe nan ghinu ba, bara nan too nani.”
So get up! Go downstairs and accompany them without hesitation, because I have sent them.”
21 Nani Bitrus se tolo kadase ade see anit aworo ani, “Mere ule na idin pizirughe. Inyangharin ndaa ninghinu?”
So Peter went down to the men and said, “Here am I, the one you are looking for. Why have you come?”
22 I woro, “Unan buun ligozin nasoja likoolt nin lisa Kaniliyos, unit ulau nin lee na adin su Kutelle usujada, unitari ule na vat nmin na Yahudawa din liru litime, Kutelle wa tuu gono kadura me kilau ucindu kilari me, adan lanza kadura nnuzu kitife.”
“Cornelius the centurion has sent us,” they said. “He is a righteous and God-fearing man with a good reputation among the whole Jewish nation. A holy angel instructed him to request your presence in his home so he could hear a message from you.”
23 Bitrus se yicala ani ipiru nin nati isoo ligowe nan ghe. Ukurtunun kui ye afita anyaa ligowe nin ghe, nin nan nuwuna nnuzun Jopa na iwufu ghe.
So Peter invited them in as his guests. And the next day he got ready and went with them, accompanied by some of the brothers from Joppa.
24 Nin Shantung kui me idaa Usizeriya. Kaniliyos wa din ncaa mine, awa dak ligowe nin likura a adindong asusut me.
The following day he arrived in Caesarea, where Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his relatives and close friends.
25 Kubi koo na Bitrus se npira, Kaniliyos tumuno na bunu fe atighe gongong.
As Peter was about to enter, Cornelius met him and fell at his feet to worship him.
26 Ama Bitrus se fya ghe aworo, “Yisina; Meng wang litine unitari.”
But Peter helped him up. “Stand up,” he said, “I am only a man myself.”
27 Kubi koo na Bitrus wa din liru ninghe, a pira nanya a ssee anit gbardang sosin ligowe.
As Peter talked with him, he went inside and found many people gathered together.
28 Aworo ani, “Anun atimine yiru na ucaun Kuyahudawa munu liti nin, sa a doo kitin mong nnuzu mmong mmin. Ama Kutelle na dursoi na nwa yicila umong unit ananni sa unan dinong.
He said to them, “You know how unlawful it is for a Jew to associate with a foreigner or visit him. But God has shown me that I should not call any man impure or unclean.
29 Un naren taa ndaa ba manyardang, na uwa tuu ndak. Bara nani ntirin fi uminin too ndak.”
So when I was invited, I came without objection. I ask, then, why have you sent for me?”
30 Kaniliyos woro, “Ayiri anas na ana kata kubi fo kone, Nwa din nlira kubi likure sa irum nya kilari ning; nnin yene, unit yisin nbun ning nin nimon iboo pas.
Cornelius answered: “Four days ago I was in my house praying at this, the ninth hour. Suddenly a man in radiant clothing stood before me
31 Aworo, 'Kaniliyos, Kutelle nlanza nlira fe, ile imon na udin filzinu ni kimon ntaa Kutelle koni nlizino ning fi.
and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your gifts to the poor have been remembered before God.
32 Too umong udu Ujopa, iyicila fi umong unit unan lisa Simon, ule wang na idin yicighe Bitrus, kupopo ngau kuli.'
Therefore send to Joppa for Simon, who is called Peter. He is a guest in the home of Simon the tanner, by the sea.’
33 Kube ntunna ntoo iyicila fi. Ucaun na udaa. Nene na vat bite di kikane nbun Kutelle, ti lanza vat nile imon na Cikilari na dursufi ubelin.”
So I sent for you immediately, and you were kind enough to come. Now then, we are all here in the presence of God to listen to everything the Lord has instructed you to tell us.”
34 Bitrus puu no unuu me aworo, “Kidegene, Nyinno na Kutelle din feru ba.
Then Peter began to speak: “I now truly understand that God does not show favoritism,
35 Nnani, nyan vat nmin Kutelle din sesu vat na nit ale na idin suu ghe usujada nin adadu alau.
but welcomes those from every nation who fear Him and do what is right.
36 Iyiru kadura kaa na ana tuu udu kiti nat Nisraila, kubi koo na awa belin uliru umang nyan Yesu Kristi, ulenge amere Cikilarin vat-
He has sent this message to the people of Israel, proclaiming the gospel of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all.
37 anun atimine yiru ile imon na ina su, ile na iwa se vat nyan Judiya, ucizinue Ngaliliya, nkatun Baptisma Nyuhana na awa belin;
You yourselves know what has happened throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee with the baptism that John proclaimed:
38 Imone kitenen Yesu Nnazaret, na Kutelle wa kusu ghe nin Ruhu Ulau nin na gang. Anyaa atinnang su kataa kacine nin shizinu na le na ibilis wa nodin nani, Kutelle wa di ligowe nin ghe.
how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how Jesus went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with Him.
39 Arik anan niyizi ibaari nvat nimon ile na anan nmin na Yahudawa nin Urushalima-Yesu ulele na iwa molu ghe, ibana ghe kitene ku ca.
We are witnesses of all that He did, both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem. And although they put Him to death by hanging Him on a tree,
40 Unit ulele Kutelle fya ghe nya liri lin tat anakpa ghe anun nan yinin ghe,
God raised Him up on the third day and caused Him to be seen—
41 na nvat nanitere ba, ama udu nanit ashaida alenge na Kutelle wa fere nani nworsu-arik atibite, ale natiwa li tisono nan ghe kimal nfitu me nkul.
not by all the people, but by the witnesses God had chosen beforehand, by us who ate and drank with Him after He rose from the dead.
42 Awa ti nari, tisu uwaazi kiti nanit, ti kunu ti bellin nani ulelere, Kutelle na fere, usughe ushara kiti na nan lai, nin na nan nkul.
And He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that He is the One appointed by God to judge the living and the dead.
43 Viti mere vat, na anabawa wani ushaida, bara kogha na ayinna ninghe anan sere usurtu nanya kulapi unuzu lissa me.”
All the prophets testify about Him that everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins through His name.”
44 A bitrus dutu nbellu nile imone Uruhu Ulau tolo kitene nati nalenge vat na iwa di nlanzu, uliru me.
While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who heard his message.
45 Anit alenge na inung wandi nanya na nan kalizu nacunu-vat nalenge na iwa dak ligowe nan Bitrus fiu kiffo nani bara ufillu Nruhu Ulau we wa tolu wang kitene na wurumi.
All the circumcised believers who had accompanied Peter were astounded that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles.
46 Bara iwa lanza Awurumi ane dinsu uliru nin ton tilem ugang izazina Kutelle. Bitrus kauwa a woro,
For they heard them speaking in tongues and exalting God. Then Peter said,
47 “Umong wasa anaza nin mmyen nworu na iwa shintin anit alelena isere Uruhu Ulau we umunu arike ku wangha?”
“Can anyone withhold the water to baptize these people? They have received the Holy Spirit just as we have!”
48 Atunna ataa ishinto nani mmyen nanya lissan Yesu Kristi. Ifoghe acara aso ligowe nanghinu uduru among ayiri gbardang.
So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay for a few days.
