< Katwa Nono Katwa 1 >

1 Kutankardan nburne kurka nan wan jertin fimu, Theophilus, inbellen katuawa karka na Yesu wa su akuru a dursuzo,
Certainly, O Theophilus, I composed the first discourse about everything that Jesus began to do and to teach,
2 har kubi ko na iwa yirgye udumu kitene kane. Ulele wa di bayan urka na nono kaduro me nsere timap tirka na iba durtu na cara Ufunu Ulau nono kadura karka na fere.
instructing the Apostles, whom he had chosen through the Holy Spirit, even until the day on which he was taken up.
3 Arka na awa durso litime nin lai bayaqn nipama iniu me. Ata ayiri akut anas ndursuzuani me, tutung incin nbeliani nbelen kilari tigo Kutelle.
He also presented himself alive to them, after his Passion, appearing to them throughout forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God with many elucidations.
4 Kubi kona awa ligowe nanghinu, anin woro nanin “na wa cin nanya Urshalime ba. Bar nanin son ca, na alkawali Imba ulena ana su minu mu na mani Ufunu Ulau kutelle nama su, na ina malin lanzu kitiningya.
And dining with them, he instructed them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but that they should wait for the Promise of the Father, “about which you have heard,” he said, “from my own mouth.
5 Yohanna wa su ubaptizima nin mmen, nin kidun ninnayiru baat Kutelle ma suminu ubastizima nin Funu ulau.”
For John, indeed, baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit, not many days from now.”
6 Kubi ko na iwa zuro kiti kirum, i tiringye, ''Cikilari, kome kubiari uba kurtunu Kilari Ugo Kutenlle?''
Therefore, those who had assembled together questioned him, saying, “Lord, is this the time when you will restore the kingdom of Israel?”
7 A woroani, ''na ummunere iyini kubi nin kubiri kurka na Ucif kele bari likarame.
But he said to them: “It is not yours to know the times or the moments, which the Father has set by his own authority.
8
But you shall receive the power of the Holy Spirit, passing over you, and you shall be witnesses for me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the ends of the earth.”
9 Daana abenle uliru une, amini wa fita cindu kitene kane, awut kitene kane wantina nanin iyenju Yesu ku, udu wulu nizi mine.
And when he had said these things, while they were watching, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him from their sight.
10 Dana anan nono katua wa din yenju udume kitene kane. Nya kube Among anit awa ba tin yisina kupopo mine nin na littuk aboo. Iwadi anan kadura Kutelleari.
And while they were watching him going up to heaven, behold, two men stood near them in white vestments.
11 Umong worum nin woro, “Anuyge anan Galili bar yangyari indin yenju kitene kane na iwa isin idin yenju kitene kane ba! Nlon liri Yesu ulele ulena Kutelle yira gye ama dak ule uye tutun. Abakpilu nannya ulele na iyenegye adin cinu udu kitene kane.”
And they said: “Men of Galilee, why do you stand here looking up toward heaven? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, shall return in just the same way that you have seen him going up to heaven.”
12 Da na nono kadura Kutenlle kpila, nonon bazu inliru kutenlle kpinlla u-Urshalima unzu Kupara Olives urka na uwa susut un-Urshalimae.
Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain, which is called Olivet, which is next to Jerusalem, within a Sabbath day’s journey.
13 Da na isa, ighana ipira kuti kitene, kika iwa sosinku. Isan nnono kadure tone: Bitrus, Yohanna, Yakub, Andarawus, Filibos, Toma, Batamawus, Matta, Yakub usaun Haffa, Simon ku-zelot, and Yahuda usaun Yakub.
And when they had entered into the cenacle, they ascended to the place where Peter and John, James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Jude of James, were staying.
14 Vat mine wa muna ati nafo warum inlira mu cancom. Nannya mine awani wa duku, Marayamu unan Isa nan nuane.
All these were persevering with one accord in prayer with the women, and with Mary, the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
15 Nan nayirane Bulus nin fita nan nuana me anan yinnu sauye. Kubi kind anan dortu Yesu wadi anit likalt nin Na kuta bah kitene. Amino wa woro,
In those days, Peter, rising up in the midst of the brothers, said (now the crowd of men altogether was about one hundred and twenty):
16 “Linuana nin ton tipinpin wadi kitenen Yahuda tona ugo Dauda wa yerti, uworsu. To ti pipingye Na dak kidegenghe, barna Ufunu Ulauwe Na belin Dauda ku a yertin.
“Noble brothers, the Scripture must be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit predicted by the mouth of David about Judas, who was the leader of those who apprehended Jesus.
17 Aworo nanin awadi gono kata Kutelle nafo arik, amino durso anan ni vira Yesu inanin wakifo imologhe.”
He had been numbered among us, and he was chosen by lot for this ministry.
18 Nene unit une nase ukubu kitenen su ni vira ine Nin Nile ikube awa seru kunen. Amino wa diu kutin kika ne liburi me tutoo tijiye gonna ti nuzu udas timalakiti.
And this man certainly possessed an estate from the wages of iniquity, and so, having been hanged, he burst open in the middle and all his internal organs poured out.
19 Vat anit na idin nanya Urshalima lanza yeri segye, inanin na yicila lisa kitene imin mmi nin tilem na aramik bar kitenere umon na kukuo.
And this became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that this field was called in their language, Akeldama, that is, ‘Field of Blood.’
20 Ame Bitrus nin kuro woro, “In na yene ilemon na ina se Yahudaku idi nafo na Maizaburana belin ari, “na kilarime ku vat, na iwa cin umon kilari meba.”' iminin yene tuo tipipinnye na Dauda na nyertin tidi kitene Yahudere: 'Na umon yiru kutet me.'”
For it has been written in the book of Psalms: ‘Let their dwelling place be desolate and may there be no one who dwells within it,’ and ‘Let another take his episcopate.’
21 Bara nanin ukamata ti fere ulena ama yiru kitu me (kutet Yahuda) ukamata unite di nan arik kubi kon Cikilari bite Yesu wa fere nari.
Therefore, it is necessary that, out of these men who have been assembling with us throughout the entire time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
22 Indian with tun kubi kana ame Yohana wa ti Yesu ku ubaptisema had udak kubi kana iwa hirigye Yesu ku kitene Kane. Unit ulena tima feru the AMA yitu ulena Ana yene Yesu ku kin nzime ayita nin lai nin kidun kulme.
beginning from the baptism of John, until the day when he was taken up from us, one of these be made a witness with us of his Resurrection.”
23 Barà nanin nono katua me nin gonna nin tisa anit a tiba. Umon lisame wadi Yusuf Barsabas, ulena Lisa me wadi tutun Justus. Unan ba wadi Matthias.
And they appointed two: Joseph, who was called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
24 Itaa nlira iworo, “Fe Cikilari, yiru nibinei nanit vat, durso nari nanya nawaba alele na ufere
And praying, they said: “May you, O Lord, who knows the heart of everyone, reveal which one of these two you have chosen,
25 ayiru kiti nanyan nkaa katawe na Yahuda nacin ana ti kulapi amini naduo kika na kiduogye.”
to take a place in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas prevaricated, so that he might go to his own place.”
26 Inanin wa su mafeferu, Mathias leu ma feruferu amini wasuo urum nanya nanan kata Yesua.
And they cast lots concerning them, and the lot fell upon Matthias. And he was numbered with the eleven Apostles.
