Acts 1
1 The first narrative, indeed, made I, concerning all things, O Theophilus, which Jesus began both to do and teach, —
Teofili li cincintili yua ke diani maadi yesu n cindi ki tieni yeni wan tundi yaala;
2 Until the day when, having given command unto the apostles, whom through Holy Spirit he had chosen, he was taken up;
Hali yeni ya daali k o bo doni poli pon
3 Unto whom he also presented himself alive, after he had suffered, by many sure tokens, throughout forty days making himself visible unto them, and speaking the things concerning the kingdom of God.
Li puoli po yo k o bo teni wan bo lugidi yaaba a tuonsɔnba k o bo legidi bi nungi po o fala puolo po fuoŋanba paalu. Dana piina o tundi legidi bi nungi nni ki maadi u Tienu diema maama.
4 And being in company with them he charged them, from Jerusalem, not to absent themselves, but—To abide around the promise of the Father which ye have heard of me,
B den ya cendi liebi o den yi yedi'b ki ban da fagidi yeni Jerusalemi ama ki nan da guudi bàa puoni u, nani wan bo maadi «i gbadi n maama ke»
5 Because, John, indeed, immersed with water; but, ye, in Holy Spirit shall be immersed, —after not many of these days.
San bo wuuli hali yeni dinne yeni mi ñinma i ama yinba ba ti wuli yeni fuoŋanba li dana kan fagidi»
6 They, therefore, having come together, began to question him, saying—Lord! art thou at this time duly establishing the kingdom unto Israel?
Ban bo taani ya yogu ke bi bual'o: «badiciamo li yognu i ke a ba sieni Israheli diema aa?»
7 He said unto them—It is not yours to get to know times or seasons which the Father hath put in his own authority;
K o maadi'bi «laa tie yin'bi ka bi bandi li yogu bii li tinbuali yua ke u Tienu bàa cuo yeni u paaceli.
8 But ye shall receive power when the Holy Spirit cometh upon you, and ye shall be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and [in] all Judaea and Samaria and as far as the uttermost part of the land.
Ama i ba gaà u paaciamu ya yogu ke fuonŋanma ti ba cua yim n ba tua mini yeni Jerusalemi sieda siedanba, Jude yeni sanmaali kuli dogu nni yeni ki tinga n pan juodi naankani kuli.
9 And having said these things, as they were beholding, he was lifted up, and a cloud caught him away from their eyes.
Yagu ke Jesu bo maadi'bi li bona kuli ki gbeni nani wan bo nua tanpoli yeni, k o doni k u tawaligbangu baa ki legini bi nunbina.
10 And, while they were looking steadfastly into heaven as he was going his way, then lo! two men had taken their stand beside them, in white garments, —
Ban go bo da nua tanpoli ya yogu, ki nibilie nagini bi kani ki lani tiapiena.
11 Who also said—Men of Galilee! why stand ye looking into heaven? This Jesus who hath been taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, in like manner as ye yourselves have gazed upon him going into heaven.
Bi bo maadi: «Yimi galile yaaba be cedi ki se lan kani ki nua tanpoli»
12 Then returned they into Jerusalem, from a mountain called Olivet, which is nigh unto Jerusalem a Sabbath day’s journey.
Lani ki bi bo guani Jerusalemi Olife juali po yua kɔbi yeni Jerusalemi nani ban cuoni ya banli Sabbat daali.
13 And, when they had entered, into the upper-story went they up, where remained behind—both Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the zealot, and Judas the son of James.
Ban bo pundi ke bi doni gu dietuagu po, ban bo tundi ki ye naani. li bo tie Piaali, San, Saaki, Andili, Filipi, Tuoma, Baatelemi, Maatio, Saaki Alife bijua, Siimo o jakagidiga, yeni Jude Saaki bijua.
14 These all were giving constant attention with one accord unto the prayer, with [certain] women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
B bo taani tie nani nuyendo yeni ki taani jaani, yeni bi puobi, Maali Jesu naà yeni o waali.
15 And, in these days, Peter, standing up in the midst of the brethren, said, —and there was a multitude of names, of one accord, about a hundred and twenty, —
Li dani k Piaali bo fii o naataani siiga nni, bi bo tie nani 120, maadi.
16 Brethren! It was needful for the Scripture to be fulfilled which the Holy Spirit spake beforehand through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, —who became guide unto them who apprehended Jesus;
N naataani li bo tie buama yaali k u Tienu maama n tieni ki tii, nani fuoŋanma n bo yedi Daavidi ñɔba nni Juda po, yua bo waani jesu ke b cuo, o.
17 For that he had come to be reckoned among us and obtained the lot of this ministry.—
Kelima o bo tie ti yua ke go bo baadi ti ñuadi li yaalidugu po.
18 This man therefore had possessed himself of a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, —and falling headlong burst asunder in the midst, and forth gushed all his bowels;
Dinne li nulo daa u kuanu yeni obiadma paadi, lan kani k o jiidi baa ke li yuli liidi, k o gbanandi yodi k o tugu nni bona kuli yadi.
19 And it became known unto all them who were dwelling in Jerusalem, so that that field was called, in their language, Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.—
Jerusalemi niba kuli bo ŋanbi bani li bonli ke b ji puni li kuanu li yeli bi danba maama nni “Hakeldama”, li niima n tie mi sɔma kuanu.
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms: Let his encampment become desolate, and let there be none to dwell therein! And—his overseership, let a different man take!
Lan cedi ki li diani pisoma tila nni,”ŋaa mani k o kuanu n kpandi pabɔnli ke nulo n daa kua li kani. ke nutiani n gaa u yudandi sienu.
21 It is needful then that, of the men who companied with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus came in and went out over us,
Li tie buami yaali ke bi niba yaabi bo ciani ti o badiciamo Jesu n bo ye ya yoguti siiga nni
22 Beginning from the immersion by John until the day when he was taken up from us, that, a witness of his resurrection along with us, should one of these become.
Lan cili San ñinwulima ya caa ya daali k o bo ñani ti siiga nni yaabi bo tua siedanba o yiedima po yeni timi.
23 And they appointed two, —Joseph, called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Ke bi tieni nibalie liiga, Josefi ke yi'o Barsabas, k go yi'o Justus yeni Maatiasi.
24 And, praying, they said—Thou Lord! observer of the hearts of all men! shew forth whom thou hast chosen, —of these two, one; —
B bo jaandi ki maadi «fini o badiciamo yua bani yua kuli yantugu ŋan waani ti nibalie ne ŋan lugidi yua.
25 To take the place of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas went aside, to go his way unto his own place.
Ke wan gaa li yiali u yaalidigu yeni u tienu tuonli ke Juda kan cɔlini ki nan ŋɔdi u sancelu.
26 And they gave lots for them; and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Ke bi tɔni tia tia ki lugidi Maatiasi k b ji bo cɔd'o ki pugni tuonsɔnba piigi n yendi yeni po.
