Acts 12
1 Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.
Umfumu u Herode ahandile abhatese aKristo.
2 He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
Ahabudile uYakobo uholo wa Yohana ni panga.
3 When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.
Nawalola huje Ayahudi bhasungwa wakhata nu Petro. Esho shali shipindi she mabumunda gasiga bhaponyizye ehamila.
4 When he had arrested him, he put him in prison and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
Nawakhata uPetro wafunga mulumanti amapunga gane aje bhadime aje nayashila Epasaka atwale hwa bhantu.
5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
Akristo bhamwaba nabhamvwa huje uPetro akhetwe na fungwe bhabhungana bhetehana bhonti apuute na hupuutile tee hwa Ngulubhi.
6 The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.
Isiku sasile uHerode humeje uPetro mwijela nu siku ahenzele umalaika humwefwe u Petro mwijela, alinzi bhazyungulile uPetro na mundyango bhaali abhasikali.
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Stand up quickly!” His chains fell off his hands.
Umalaika winza wakhozya mwijela umalaika wadamuzya u Petro waga bhuuha nanali amanyololo gabhapinyiye gagwagepa mumakhono na mumanama.
8 The angel said to him, “Get dressed and put on your sandals.” He did so. He said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
Umalaika waga kwata evilato vyaho wa menda gaho saali ndondozyanje ane.”
9 And he went out and followed him. He didn’t know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
U Petro walondozya uMalaika bhafuma hwunzi. U Petro sigaaloline aje ezyo zili lyoli agagajibha alota njozi.
10 When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.
Bhashila undyango ugwa hwande bhashila nugwabhili bhafuma hundyango ugosi ugwabhalile humujini, ugwo gwali gwimajela gwahigushe gwene bhasogola bhafiha apatali, uMalaika waleha uPetro waga eshi bhalaga.
11 When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”
U Petro nawamanya huje zililyolo siganjozi waga Ungulubhi atumile Umalaika wakwe huje anefwe mwijela nensubhizyo zya ayahudi.”
12 Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
U Petro wafiha munyumba ya Mariamu unyina wa Yohana yahwitwa Marko; mwabhabhangine Akristo nabhapuutaga.
13 When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
Nawakhoma ehodi mundyango wabhala humwigulile ulendu umo itawa yu Roda.
14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, she didn’t open the gate for joy, but ran in and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
Nawamanya huje yu Petro, sigawigula undyango; washimbila wabhala abhabhuule munyumba huje yu Petro yakhoma ehodi.
15 They said to her, “You are crazy!” But she insisted that it was so. They said, “It is his angel.”
Abhamunyumba bhabisya bhagasiga yuyo umwene wakhasya huje yuyo bhaga yu malaika wakwe.”
16 But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him and were amazed.
U Petro wabhasagonga undyango pamandi bhamwigulila na bhalola bhaswiga tee. U Petro wabhapumizyia wabhalatila zyonti umalaika zyabhombile shafumizye mwijela,
17 But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place.
“Wababhuula huje mubhuule u Yakobo na holo abhamwabho, wasogola wabhala uhwamwabho.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
Nawasha askali bhala bhazugumiye tee hunongwa ya Petro huje afumile wele.
19 When Herod had sought for him and didn’t find him, he examined the guards, then commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
U Herode nawabhala humweje siga amwajile wabhabhuuzya alinzi, u Herode wamula abhabude alinzi bhaala, wasogola wabha hu Kaisaria akhale.
20 Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.
U Herode ali ne lyoyo na bhantu abhahu Tiro na hu Sidoni. Bhabhala bhonti palishimo. Bhakundana nu saidizi wa mfumu, bhalabha ulwetehano, ensi yabho ehapataga eshalya afume hunsi ya mfumu.
21 On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
Isiku limo umfumu u Herode ali nu mbungano nawakhala pitengo lyakwe elyeufumu, wayanga na bhantu.
22 The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
Abhantu bhabwaga bhaga eli lizu lya Ngulubhi sigalizu lya muntu!”
23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.
Umalaika wakhoma amachango galya muvyanda wafwa
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
Lelo izu lya Ngulubhi lyanyampana hwa bhanti bhabhinji.
25 Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John who was called Mark.
A Barnaba nu Paulo nabhala bhabhala hu Yerusalemu bhamwega nu Yohana yahwitwa Marko elyo lyapipwe nalyo.
