Katwa Nono Katwa 12
1 Nene nkoni kube Hirudus ugowe taa acara kitene namon ale na iwa di anang kilarin nlira anan wulakauta nani.
And about that time, Herod the king put forth his hands to do evil to certain of those of the Assembly,
2 A wa molu Yakubu ku gbanan Yohana nin kusangali.
and he killed James, the brother of John, with the sword,
3 Na ayene imone ntaa Ayahudawe mang, anyaa cindu kitin Bitrus ku tutung, kone wadi kubin nborodin salin yeast.
and having seen that it is pleasing to the Jews, he added to lay hold of Peter also—and they were the days of the Unleavened [Bread]—
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.
whom also having seized, he put in prison, having delivered [him] to four squads of four soldiers to guard him, intending to bring him forth 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.
Peter, therefore, indeed, was kept in the prison, and fervent prayer was being made by the Assembly to God for him,
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.
and when Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night was Peter sleeping between two soldiers, having been bound with two chains, guards were also keeping the prison before the door,
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.
and behold, a messenger of the LORD stood by, and a light shone in the buildings, and having struck Peter on the side, he raised him up, saying, “Rise in haste,” and his chains fell from off [his] hands.
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.”
The messenger also said to him, “Gird yourself, and bind on your sandals”; and he did so; and he says to him, “Cast your garment around 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.
and having gone forth, he was following him, and he did not know that it is true that which is done through the messenger, and was thinking he saw 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.
and having passed through a first ward, and a second, they came to the iron gate that is leading into the city, which opened to them of its own accord, and having gone forth, they went on through one street, and immediately the messenger departed from 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.”
And Peter having come to himself, said, “Now I have known of a truth that the LORD sent forth His messenger, and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and all the expectation of the people of the Jews”;
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.
also, having considered, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John, who is surnamed Mark, where there were many thronged together and praying.
13 Na a reu kibulunghe, nkung kubura kucin lisa me Rhoda da amada kpanghe.
And Peter having knocked at the door of the porch, there came a girl to listen, by name Rhoda,
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.
and having known the voice of Peter, from the joy she did not open the porch, but having run in, told of the standing of Peter before the porch,
15 I woroghe, “Kibinai fe nwuluara so.” Ame dirtino nduu nanere, I woro “unang kadura mine.”
and they said to her, “You are mad”; and she was confidently affirming [it] to be so, and they said, “It is his messenger”;
16 Bara nani Bulus leu ubun nfoo kibulunghe, na inin da punoo kibulunghe, itene amere umamaki kifo nani.
and Peter was continuing knocking, and having opened, they saw him, and were astonished,
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.
and having beckoned to them with the hand to be silent, he declared to them how the LORD brought him out of the prison, and he said, “Declare these things to James and to the brothers”; and having gone forth, he went on to another place.
18 Na kitin shanta, manyardan madya wa fita nanya nanang ncaa kilari licine sa iyanghari nse Bitrus ku.
And day having come, there was not a little stir among the soldiers what then was 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.
and Herod having sought for him, and having not found, having examined the guards, commanded [them] to be led away to punishment, and having gone down from Judea to Caesarea, he was abiding [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.
And Herod was highly displeased with the Tyrians and Sidonians, and with one accord they came to him, and having made a friend of Blastus, who [is] over the bed-chambers of the king, they were asking peace, because of their country being nourished from the king’s;
21 Nlong liri Hirudus shono Imoon tigowe ada soo kitene kutet tigowe, anin benle nani uliru.
and on a set day, Herod having clothed himself in kingly clothing, and having sat down on the judgment seat, was making an oration to them,
22 Anite taa ntet I woro, “Lole liwui Kutelleari na lin nitari ba.”
and the populace were shouting, “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.
And immediately a messenger of the LORD struck him in return for that he did not give the glory to God, and having been eaten of worms, he expired.
24 Uliru Kutelle kuno kang unin maka kiti.
And the word of God grew and multiplied,
25 Na Barnabas nin shawulu nsaa unuzun Urshalima, naimala kadura mine; I yira Yohana ku ule na lisa limba me wadi Markus.
and Barnabas and Saul turned back out of Jerusalem, having fulfilled the ministry, having also taken John with [them], who was surnamed Mark.
