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 his hands upon certain of the church, to oppress them.
2 A wa molu Yakubu ku gbanan Yohana nin kusangali.
And he slew 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 seeing that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to apprehend Peter also; (then were the days of 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.
and he seized him and put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after the passover to bring him forth to the people.
5 Bara nani iwa ceu Bitrus ku nanya kutii licin, bara nani iwa tizughe nlira nanya kutii nlira midya udu kiti Kutelle.
Peter therefore was kept guarded in prison; but earnest prayer was made by the church to God in 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.
And when Herod was about to bring him forth, on that night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and keepers before the door were guarding the prison.
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 lo! an angel of the Lord came to him, and a light shone in the room; and he smote Peter on the side, and roused him, saying, Rise up quickly. And his chains fell from 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.”
And the angel said to him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals; and he did so. And he saith to him, Throw thy garment round thee, 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 he went out, and followed; and he knew not that what was done by the angel was real, but thought 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 when they had passed the first, and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leadeth to the city, which opened to them of itself; and they went out and passed on through one street, and the angel immediately 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 when Peter had come to himself, he said, Now I know certainly, that the Lord hath sent forth his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from 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.
And when he understood the matter, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, surnamed Mark, where many were gathered together, and praying.
13 Na a reu kibulunghe, nkung kubura kucin lisa me Rhoda da amada kpanghe.
And as he knocked at the door of the gate, a maid-servant came to listen, named 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 recognizing Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness; but ran in, and told them that Peter was standing before the gate.
15 I woroghe, “Kibinai fe nwuluara so.” Ame dirtino nduu nanere, I woro “unang kadura mine.”
And they said to her, Thou art mad. But she positively affirmed that it was even so. Then 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 continued knocking; and opening the door, they saw him, and were amazed.
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.
But beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, he related how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go and tell these things to James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went to another place.
18 Na kitin shanta, manyardan madya wa fita nanya nanang ncaa kilari licine sa iyanghari nse Bitrus ku.
And when it was day, there was no small commotion among the soldiers, as to 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.
And Herod, when he had sought for him and found him not, examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be led away [[to execution]]. And he went down from Judea to Caesarea, and there abode.
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 he was highly displeased with the Tyrians and Sidonians; but they came to him with one accord, and having made Blastus the king's chamberlain their friend, sued for peace; because their country drew its nourishment from that of the king.
21 Nlong liri Hirudus shono Imoon tigowe ada soo kitene kutet tigowe, anin benle nani uliru.
And on a day appointed, Herod, having arrayed himself in royal apparel, and taken his seat on the throne, made a speech to them.
22 Anite taa ntet I woro, “Lole liwui Kutelleari na lin nitari ba.”
And thereupon the people shouted, 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.
But immediately an angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory, and he was eaten by worms, and expired.
24 Uliru Kutelle kuno kang unin maka kiti.
But the word of God grew and was extended.
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 returned from Jerusalem, having performed their service, taking with them also John, surnamed Mark.
