Katwa Nono Katwa 1
1 Kutankardan nburne kurka nan wan jertin fimu, Theophilus, inbellen katuawa karka na Yesu wa su akuru a dursuzo,
My former narrative, Theophilus, dealt with all that Jesus did and taught as a beginning, down to the day on which,
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.
after giving instruction through the Holy Spirit to the Apostles whom He had chosen, He was taken up to Heaven.
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 had also, after He suffered, shown Himself alive to them with many sure proofs, appearing to them at intervals during forty days, and speaking of the Kingdom of God.
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 while in their company He charged them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the Father's promised gift. "This you have heard of," He said, "from me.
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 before many days have passed you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit."
6 Kubi ko na iwa zuro kiti kirum, i tiringye, ''Cikilari, kome kubiari uba kurtunu Kilari Ugo Kutenlle?''
Once when they were with Him, they asked Him, "Master, is this the time at which you are about to restore the kingdom of Israel?"
7 A woroani, ''na ummunere iyini kubi nin kubiri kurka na Ucif kele bari likarame.
"It is not for you," He replied, "to know times or epochs which the Father has reserved within His own authority;
and yet you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judaea and Samaria and to the remotest parts 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.
When He had said this, and while they were looking at Him, He was carried up, and a cloud closing beneath Him hid 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.
But, while they stood intently gazing into the sky as He went, suddenly there were two men in white garments standing by them,
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.”
who said, "Galilaeans, why stand looking into the sky? This same Jesus who has been taken up from you into Heaven will come in just the same way as you have seen Him going into 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 called the Oliveyard, which is near Jerusalem, about a mile off.
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.
They entered the city, and they went up to the upper room which was now their fixed place for meeting. Their names were Peter and John, James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the brother of James.
14 Vat mine wa muna ati nafo warum inlira mu cancom. Nannya mine awani wa duku, Marayamu unan Isa nan nuane.
All of these with one mind continued earnest in prayer, together with some women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and 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,
It was on one of these days that Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren--the entire number of persons present being about 120--and said,
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.
"Brethren, it was necessary that the Scripture should be fulfilled--the prediction, I mean, which the Holy Spirit uttered by the lips of David, about Judas, who acted as guide to those who arrested Jesus.
17 Aworo nanin awadi gono kata Kutelle nafo arik, amino durso anan ni vira Yesu inanin wakifo imologhe.”
For Judas was reckoned as one of our number, and a share in this ministry was allotted to him."
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.
(Now having bought a piece of ground with the money paid for his wickedness he fell there with his face downwards, and, his body bursting open, he became disembowelled.
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.
This fact became widely known to the people of Jerusalem, so that the place received the name, in their language, of Achel-damach, which means 'The 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 is written in the Book of Psalms, "'Let his encampment be desolate: let there be no one to dwell there'; and "'His work let another take up.'
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.
"It is necessary, therefore, that of the men who have been with us all the 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 His baptism by John down to the day on which He was taken up again from us into Heaven--one should be appointed to become a witness with us as to 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.
So two names were proposed, Joseph called Bar-sabbas--and surnamed Justus--and Matthias.
24 Itaa nlira iworo, “Fe Cikilari, yiru nibinei nanit vat, durso nari nanya nawaba alele na ufere
And the brethren prayed, saying, "Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all, show clearly which of these two Thou hast chosen
25 ayiru kiti nanyan nkaa katawe na Yahuda nacin ana ti kulapi amini naduo kika na kiduogye.”
to occupy the place in this ministry and Apostleship from which Judas through transgression fell, in order to go to his own place."
26 Inanin wa su mafeferu, Mathias leu ma feruferu amini wasuo urum nanya nanan kata Yesua.
Then they drew lots between them. The lot fell on Matthias, and a place among the eleven Apostles was voted to him.
