Katwa Nono Katwa 12
1 Nene nkoni kube Hirudus ugowe taa acara kitene namon ale na iwa di anang kilarin nlira anan wulakauta nani.
Now about that time, Herod the king laid hands on some from the church to mistreat them.
2 A wa molu Yakubu ku gbanan Yohana nin kusangali.
James, the brother of John, he put to death by sword.
3 Na ayene imone ntaa Ayahudawe mang, anyaa cindu kitin Bitrus ku tutung, kone wadi kubin nborodin salin yeast.
When he saw that it was pleasing to the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter as well (it was during the days of the unleavened loaves)
4 Na akifoghe, ataghe nanya kilari licin, na anang ncaa anit likure nin kutocin din ucaa me. A wadi nin su ada ninghe nanya nanit iwa malu ubukin Paska.
—upon seizing him he put him in prison, turning him over to sixteen soldiers to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
5 Bara nani iwa ceu Bitrus ku nanya kutii licin, bara nani iwa tizughe nlira nanya kutii nlira midya udu kiti Kutelle.
Well Peter was being held in the prison all right, but the congregation was making earnest prayer to God on his behalf.
6 Udu ukurtunun nkuiye na ima nutunghe ninkutike Bitrus wadin moro kiitik nanang ncaa me naba. Itereghe nin ninyeng iba anan caa kibulunghe nyenju kilari licine.
So when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, with guards protecting the prison in front of the doors.
7 Gono kadura Kutelle daa kiti me, nkanang nin daa nanya kutiiye, akpeu Bitrus ku likot afyaghe anin woro, ““Fita mass.” Iyenghe nin deu nacara me.
Suddenly, an angel of the Lord was there, and a light shone in the cell; striking Peter on the side he roused him saying, “Quick, get up!” and the chains fell away from his wrists.
8 Gono kadura Kutelle woroghe, “Shoono imoon fe nin nakpatak fe.” Bitrus ta nafo na ibelinghe ba. Gono kadura Kutelle woroghe, “Shoono kulutuk ku dya fe udofini.”
Then the angel said to him, “Fasten your belt and put on your sandals.” So he did. Then he said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
9 Bara nani Bitrus dofino gono kadura Kutelle udu udas. Na awa yiru imon ile na gono kadura Kutelle ntaaghe wa di kidegenere ba, a wadin su sa adi namoron wuiyari.
So he went out and started following him, not realizing that what the angel was doing was real; he supposed he was seeing a vision.
10 Na ikata kibulun kin funu nin kin ba, idaa kibulun nikora kaa na kipira nanya kagbirel kibulunghe puuno usamme, inuzu inyaa udu libau, gono kadura Kutelle nyaa a sunghe kikane.
Passing through the first and second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, that opened for them by itself; upon exiting they advanced one block, and suddenly the angel left him.
11 Na Bitrus nzinto, a woro, “Nene nyino Kutelle ntuu gono kadure me ada tu cui nanya nacaran Hirudus, nin kpilizu unanzang na Yahudawa.”
When Peter had come to himself he said, “Now I know for certain that the Lord sent His angel and delivered me out of Herod's hand and from all the expectation of the Jewish people.”
12 Na ayinno nani, adaa ngan Maryamu unan Yohana ule na lisa lin ba me wa di Markus; anang yinu nin Kutelle gbardang wadi ku idin nlira.
Upon reflection he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John (the one called Mark), where a considerable number had gathered and were praying.
13 Na a reu kibulunghe, nkung kubura kucin lisa me Rhoda da amada kpanghe.
When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
14 Na ayinno liwuin Bitrus, bara liburi liboo na ayino upunu kibulunghe ba; akpila nin cum udu nanya kutiiya; a benle nani au Bitrus yisin kibulung.
Upon recognizing Peter's voice, she was so glad she did not open the gate, but ran in and announced that Peter was standing before the gate!
15 I woroghe, “Kibinai fe nwuluara so.” Ame dirtino nduu nanere, I woro “unang kadura mine.”
But they said to her, “You're crazy!” but she kept insisting that it was so. So they said, “It is his angel.”
16 Bara nani Bulus leu ubun nfoo kibulunghe, na inin da punoo kibulunghe, itene amere umamaki kifo nani.
But Peter kept on knocking; so when they opened the door and saw him, they were astounded.
17 Bitrus lirina nin nacara me au iti tik, anin belle nani inda na Kutelle nnutunghe nanya kilari licin, a woro, “Benleng ile imoone kitin Yakubu nin kagisin linwana.” Anin nyaa udu nkon kusari.
Motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he related to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. Then he said, “Tell these things to James and the brothers.” And going out he went off to a different place.
18 Na kitin shanta, manyardan madya wa fita nanya nanang ncaa kilari licine sa iyanghari nse Bitrus ku.
Now as soon as it was day, there was no small commotion among the soldiers about what had become of Peter!
19 Na Hirudus npiziraghe na ayeneghe ba, a tiro anang ncaa we aworo na imolu nani. Anin nyaa unuzu Yahudiya udu Ukasariya adi soo kikane.
Well after searching for him and not finding him, Herod examined the guards and ordered that they be executed. Going down from Judea to Caesarea, he stayed there.
20 Hirudus wa nana ayi nin nanitin Taya nin Sidon. I doo kiti me ligowe iresa Blastus, unan buunung ngowe, a buun nani, I pizira lisosin limang bara na imonli mine wa nucu ngangowere.
Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; so they came with one accord to him, and having won over Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their country was supplied with food from the king's.
21 Nlong liri Hirudus shono Imoon tigowe ada soo kitene kutet tigowe, anin benle nani uliru.
So on an appointed day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat on the throne and started to deliver an address to them.
22 Anite taa ntet I woro, “Lole liwui Kutelleari na lin nitari ba.”
But the crowd started calling out, “The voice of a god and not of a man!”
23 Kitene gono kadura Kutelle penghe bara na a wa zazin Kutelle ba; ishung wa lighe a kuu.
Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him down, because he did not give glory to God, and being eaten by worms, he died.
24 Uliru Kutelle kuno kang unin maka kiti.
And the Word of God kept growing and multiplying.
25 Na Barnabas nin shawulu nsaa unuzun Urshalima, naimala kadura mine; I yira Yohana ku ule na lisa limba me wadi Markus.
Now Barnabas and Saul returned to Antioch, having fulfilled their mission, also taking with them John, the one called Mark.
