Acts 1
1 The first account I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
MAIN Teopiluj, i wiadar tapin kajoi duen meakan, me Iejuj kotin tapiadar, duen a wiawia o kaukawewe karoj,
2 until the day in which he was received up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.
Lao lel ran en a peukedala mon a kotin kakalik on wanporon akan, me a kotin piladar ren Nen jaraui,
3 To these he also showed himself alive after he suffered, by many proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days, and speaking about God's Kingdom.
Me a pil kotin kajanjale on pein i ieiaj ki kilel melel toto murin a kalokolok o a pwara don irail ran paeijok o kapakaparokeki duen tiak en wein Kot.
4 Being assembled together with them, he commanded them, "Do not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.
A ni a kotikot re’rail, a kotin kakalikion irail, ren der kowei jan Ierujalem, a ren auiaui, inau en Jam lao pwaidar, me komail rona jan ia er.
5 For John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days from now."
Pwe Ioanej wia paptaij ki pil, a komail pan paptaij kila Nen jaraui ni eu ran me koren.
6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him, "Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?"
Irail lao pokon penaer, rap kalelapok re a potoan on: Main, anjau wet re pan kotin kapure don Ijrael wei o?
7 He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority.
A kotin majani on irail: Menda re omail, en aja anjau de auer, me Jam okila nan pein a manaman?
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the farthest part of the earth."
A komail pan ale manaman en Nen jaraui, me pan di po omail; komail ap pan ai jaunkadede kan nan Ierujalem, o ludaa pon o Jamaria, o lel won irepan jappa.
9 When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud took him out of their sight.
A lao majanier mepukat, ap peukedalar ni ar kankakil, pali en dapok pali idandalar i jan mon maj arail.
10 While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, look, two men stood by them in white clothing,
Ni ar kilekilan nanlan, ni anjaun a kotidala, kilan, ol riemen mi nan likau pwetepwet, kotikot re’rail.
11 who also said, "You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who was received up from you into the sky will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky."
Me pil majani: ol en Kalilaa komail, da me komail jarakidan nanlan? lel Iejuj, me peukedala nanlan jan komail, a pan kotin puredo, duen komail udialer a kotidalar.
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day's journey away.
Irail ap purelan lerujalem jan dol o, me ad a Oliwe, me koren ion lerujalem; a doo jan al en japat pot.
13 When they had come in, they went up into the upper room, where they were staying; that is Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.
Irail lao kotilon on, ap kotidan nan pera poa, waja re kin kotikoteta, irail karoj: Petruj, o loanej, o Iakopuj, o anreaj, o Pilipuj, o Tomaj, o Partolomauj, o Matauj, o Iakopuj nain Alpiiuj, o Jimon Jelotej, o Iudaj ri en Iakopuj.
14 All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer, along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
Mepukat karoj wiaki eu podidi on kapakap, li akai pil ian irail, o pil Maria in en Iejuj o ri a ol akan.
15 In these days, Peter stood up in the midst of the brothers (and the number of names was about one hundred twenty), and said,
Ni ran oko Petruj ap uda nan pun en jaulan kan majani (irail me impan epukiriek)
16 "Brothers, it was necessary that this Scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus.
Ri ai kan, kijin likau en punala, me Nen jaraui kalokaia ki Dawid maj o iran Iudaj, me karedo, me jaikidi Iejuj oko.
17 For he was numbered with us, and received his portion in this ministry.
Pwe a pil wadawad on kitail, er o aleer pwaij a dodok wet.
18 Now this man obtained a field with the reward for his wickedness, and falling headfirst his body burst open, and all his intestines gushed out.
Nan ol men et pwaine kidar pwain en a japun jap eu, a ni a dikaudi, ap lop pajan o kananan kaped a ap poie jan.
19 It became known to everyone who lived in Jerusalem that in their language that field was called 'Hakel-Dema,' that is, 'The field of blood.'
Toun lerujalem karoj ajada met. Ari, jap o adanekila akeldama ni pein arail lokaia; iet wewe: Jap en nta.
20 For it is written in the scroll of Psalms, 'Let his habitation be made desolate, and let no one dwell in it;' and, 'Let another take his office.'
Pwe a intinidier nan puk en pjalm: Im a en lijelipinala o jolar, me pan kaujon lole, a amen me pan ale a koa.
21 "Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Ari, amen jan ren ol akan, me poden ian kitail er, ni anjau me Kaun Iejuj kotikot re atail,
22 beginning from the baptism of John, to the day that he was received up from us, of these one must become a witness with us of his resurrection."
Jan ni muein paptaij en loanej kokodo lel ni ran o, me a kotin peukada jan kitail er, pan ian kitail wiala jaunkadede en a kotin iajada.
23 They put forward two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Irail ari kileledi riamen: Iojep iei Parjapaj, me pil ad a Iojtoj o Matiaj.
24 They prayed, and said, "You, Lord, who know the hearts of all people, show which one of these two you have chosen
Irail ap kapakap majani: Main, ir me kotin mani monion en amen amen, re kotin kajanjaleda, ij me re kotin pilada ren me riamen et,
25 to take part in this ministry and office of apostle from which Judas turned away to go to his own place."
Pwe i en ale pwaij a dodok wet o koa en wanporon, me Iudaj pupe jan, pwen kolan deu a.
26 They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Irail ap kadoropwada. A doropwa ko on Matiaj; i ari ian wadawad on wanporon ekamen oko.
