Acts 5
1 But a certain man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a field,
Vayi mutu wumosi dizina diandi Anania, va kimosi ayi nketoꞌandi Safila basumbisa tsolꞌawu.
2 and he was deceitful about the price of the field, with his wife’s consent. And bringing only part of it, he placed it at the feet of the Apostles.
Vayi bu kawizana ayi nketoꞌandi, Anania wusueka ndambu yi zimbongo ziozi kasumbisila tsola. Bosi wunata ndambu yinkaka kuidi bamvuala.
3 But Peter said: “Ananias, why has Satan tempted your heart, so that you would lie to the Holy Spirit and be deceitful about the price of the land?
Piela wunkamba: —A Anania! Bila mbi Satana kawadidi mu ntimꞌaku e? Vunini Pheve Yinlongo, suekidi ndambu yi zimbongo ziozi sumbisidi tsolꞌaku e?
4 Did it not belong to you while you retained it? And having sold it, was it not in your power? Why have you set this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God!”
Tuamina wusumbisa tsola beni, yisi ba yaku veka ko e? Bosi ku nzimunina bu wumeni kuyisumbisa, wulendi sadila zimbongo beni ko boso buzodidi e? Buna buevi bakidi lukanu luvangila diambu di phila yayi e? Bika sia ti batu vunini vayi Nzambi vunini!
5 Then Ananias, upon hearing these words, fell down and expired. And a great fear overwhelmed all who heard of it.
Anania bu kamana wa mambu mama, wubua va tsi ayi wufua. Batu boso bobo bawa diambu beni bamona boma.
6 And the young men rose up and removed him; and carrying him out, they buried him.
Matoko mayiza zinga mvumbi, manata yawu ku nganda bosi mayenda kuyizika.
7 Then about the space of three hours passed, and his wife entered, not knowing what had happened.
Nduka-nduka zithangu zitatu zivioka bosi nketoꞌandi wuyiza kota, mukambu zaba mambu mavioka.
8 And Peter said to her, “Tell me, woman, if you sold the field for this amount?” And she said, “Yes, for that amount.”
Piela wunyuvula: —Wutsudikisa: yawu yoyi thalu lusumbisididi tsolꞌeno e? Niandi wumvutudila: —Mu thalu yoyi kaka!
9 And Peter said to her: “Why have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they shall carry you out!”
Bosi Piela wunkamba: —A bila mbi luwizinini mu diambu di tota Pheve yi Pfumu e? Tala batu bobo babedi ku zika bakala diaku badi va muelo ayi ngeyo mamvaku, beka ku nata.
10 Immediately, she fell down before his feet and expired. Then the young men entered and found her dead. And they carried her out and buried her next to her husband.
Muna thangu yina wubua va malu ma Piela ayi wufua. Matoko bu mavutuka mammona wufua. Mannata ayi manzika vana ndambu bakala diandi.
11 And a great fear came over the entire Church and over all who heard these things.
Mambu mama mamonisa basi dibundu tsisi yiwombo ayi batu boso bobo bawa mambu beni.
12 And through the hands of the Apostles many signs and wonders were accomplished among the people. And they all met with one accord at Solomon’s portico.
Bamvuala zivanga bikumu ayi bidimbu biwombo va khatitsika batu. Babo baba kifu kikutakananga ku velanda yi Solomo.
13 And among the others, no one dared to join himself to them. But the people magnified them.
Kadi mutu wunkaka kasia fubana yawu ko, muaki batu baba kuba niemisanga ngolo.
14 Now the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord was ever increasing,
Vayi babakala ayi baketo bawombo bawilukila Pfumu ayi babuelama.
15 so much so that they laid the infirm in the streets, placing them on beds and stretchers, so that, as Peter arrived, at least his shadow might fall upon any one of them, and they would be freed from their infirmities.
Buna batu baba natina bambevo bawombo mu ziphambu zi zinzila; bazitula va zikhuala ayi mu biphoyi muingi Piela bu kamvioka, kitsuisula kiandi kibua vadi bambevo bankaka.
16 But a multitude also hurried to Jerusalem from the neighboring cities, carrying the sick and those troubled by unclean spirits, who were all healed.
Batu bawombo baba kuizanga, baba mu mavula mafikimini Yelusalemi; banata bambevo ziawu ayi banata batu baba yamusu kuidi ziphevi zimbimbi. Baboso babeluka.
17 Then the high priest and all those who were with him, that is, the heretical sect of the Sadducees, rose up and were filled with jealousy.
Pfumu yi zinganga Nzambi ayi batu bandi boso va kimosi ayi basi dikabu di Basaduki; bamona kikhenene
18 And they laid hands on the Apostles, and they placed them in the common prison.
bakanga bamvuala ayi babakotisa mu nloko wunneni.
19 But in the night, an Angel of the Lord opened the doors of the prison and led them out, saying,
Vayi mbasi yi Pfumu yiyiza va builu, yizibula mielo mi nloko ayi yitotula bamvuala,
20 “Go and stand in the temple, speaking to the people all these words of life.”
buna yiba kamba: —Yendanu ku Nzo Nzambi, lulonga batu malongi ma luzingu lualu.
21 And when they had heard this, they entered the temple at first light, and they were teaching. Then the high priest, and those who were with him, approached, and they called together the council and all the elders of the sons of Israel. And they sent to the prison to have them brought.
Bu bawa bobo, mu nsuka-nsuka bayenda ku nzo Nzambi, batona longa! Pfumu yi zinganga Nzambi ayi batu bandi batumisa batu ba lukutukunu lu minyadi ayi bakulutu boso ba Iseli. Buna batuma batu benda landi bamvuala mu nloko.
22 But when the attendants had arrived, and, upon opening the prison, had not found them, they returned and reported to them,
Vayi minsungi bu miyenda tula kuna nloko, misia bamona ko mu nloko. Mivutuka ayi mituba:
23 saying: “We found the prison certainly locked up with all diligence, and the guards standing before the door. But upon opening it, we found no one within.”
—Tuenda bata nloko widi wukangama ayi minsungi mi nloko buna mitelimini va mielo. Vayi bu tuzibudi kadi mutu wumosi tuisi mona ko!
24 Then, when the magistrate of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were uncertain about them, as to what should happen.
Thangu pfumu yi minsungi mi Nzo Nzambi ayi pfumu yi zinganga Nzambi bawa mambu mama, basia zaba ko mbi bivanga. Bayindula kani buevi bu kuiza sukila Nsamu wawu.
25 But someone arrived and reported to them, “Behold, the men whom you placed in prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people.”
Vana vawu mutu wumosi wuyiza ku bakamba: —Batu bobo lukotisa mu nloko badi muna Nzo Nzambi, balembo longi!
26 Then the magistrate, with the attendants, went and brought them without force. For they were afraid of the people, lest they be stoned.
Pfumu yi minsungi mi Nzo Nzambi wuyenda va kimosi ayi masodi mandi kuna nzo Nzambi. Wunata bamvuala ku lukutukunu lu minyadi, bika sia ti mu kingolo bila boma baba mona mu diambu di batu bedi kuba zuba matadi.
27 And when they had brought them, they stood them before the council. And the high priest questioned them,
Bu baba nata, baba tula va ntuala lukutukunu lu monyadi bosi Pfumu yi zinganga Nzambi wuba yuvula:
28 and said: “We strongly order you not to teach in this name. For behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you wish to bring the blood of this man upon us.”
—Tulukandika lubika buela longilanga mu dizina di mutu wuna. Vayi tala malongi meno mameni tembakana mu Yelusalemi dioso, bosi lutidi beto tunata nkanu wu lufua lu mutu wuna e?
29 But Peter and the Apostles responded by saying: “It is necessary to obey God, more so than men.
Vayi Piela ayi bamvuala bavutula: —Bulutidi mboti mu tumukina Nzambi vayi bika batu.
30 The God of our fathers has raised up Jesus, whom you put to death by hanging him on a tree.
Nzambi yi bakulu beto wufulukisa Yesu beni mu bafua. Yesu diodi luvondisa bu lumbanda va nti.
31 It is he whom God has exalted at his right hand as Ruler and Savior, so as to offer repentance and the remission of sins to Israel.
Vayi Nzambi wunnangika bu kamvuandisa va koko kuandi ku lubakala banga Pfumu ayi Mvulusi mu diambu di basi Iseli babalula mavanga ayi balemvokolo mu masumu.
32 And we are witnesses of these things, with the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to all who are obedient to him.”
Beto tuidi bambangi ba mambu mama va kimosi ayi Pheve Yinlongo yoyi Nzambi kavana kuidi batu beti kuntumimina.
33 When they had heard these things, they were deeply wounded, and they were planning to put them to death.
Vayi bawu bu bawa mambu momo, bafuema ngolo; bawizana mu diambu di baba vondisa.
34 But someone in the council, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law honored by all the people, rose up and ordered the men to be put outside briefly.
Vayi mfalisi wumosi mu dikabu di lukutukunu lu minyadi, dizina diandi Ngamalieli, wuba nlongi wu Mina; wuba kinzukungu kuidi batu boso, wutelama va khatitsika lukutukunu minyadi; wuvana lutumunu batotula bamvuala ku nganda mu ndambu thangu.
35 And he said to them: “Men of Israel, you should be careful in your intentions about these men.
Buna wuba kamba: —A beno basi Iseli, lulubuka mu diambu di batu baba ayi talanu mambu mbi lutidi kuba vangila.
36 For before these days, Theudas stepped forward, asserting himself to be someone, and a number of men, about four hundred, joined with him. But he was killed, and all who believed in him were scattered, and they were reduced to nothing.
Bila mu bilumbu kuandi bibedi, mutu wumosi wutotuka, dizina diandi Tewudasi wuzola kukimonisa mutu wu minsua. Nduka-nduka zikhama ziya zi batu banlandakana. Vayi bu kavondo, buna batu bandi boso baba kuntumukinanga basasukusu. Dingumba diandi disia buela wakakana ko.
37 After this one, Judas the Galilean stepped forward, in the days of the enrollment, and he turned the people toward himself. But he also perished, and all of them, as many as had joined with him, were dispersed.
Niandi bu kavioka, mu thangu yiba disasama, Yuda muisi Ngalili wutotuka. Niandi mamvandi wuvitumuna batu bawombo mu diambu batotula khindu, vayi mamvandi wufua ayi batu baba kuntumukinanga bamana sasukusu.
38 And now therefore, I say to you, withdraw from these men and leave them alone. For if this counsel or work is of men, it will be broken.
Buabu ndieka ku lukamba: Bikanu buela kota mambu ma batu baba ayi luba yekula benda kuawu; bila enati lukanu lualu votimavanga mama madi ma batu buna mela fua.
39 Yet truly, if it is of God, you will not be able to break it, and perhaps you might be found to have fought against God.” And they agreed with him.
Vayi enati madi mavanga ma Nzambi buna lulendi nunga ku mavonda ko ayi lukeba luedi nuanisa Nzambi.
40 And calling in the Apostles, having beaten them, they warned them not to speak at all in the name of Jesus. And they dismissed them.
Batu boso bakikinina ndubu andi. Bu batumisa bamvuala; baba kandika babika buela yolukila dizina di Yesu. Bu bamana kuba tuta khuba; bosi baba yekula.
41 And indeed, they went forth from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were considered worthy to suffer insult on behalf of the name of Jesus.
Bawu batotuka va ntuala lukutukunu lu minyadi mu khini bila bamonika ti bafueni mona ziphasi mu diambu di dizina di Yesu.
42 And every day, in the temple and among the houses, they did not cease to teach and to evangelize Christ Jesus.
Bosi kadika lumbu mu nzo Nzambi ayi mu zinzo, bamvuala basia vonga ko mu longa ayi mu yamikisa Yesu banga Klisto.
