< Acts 3 >

1 And Peter and John were going up at the same time to the temple, at the hour of the prayer, the ninth [hour],
Gbe ɖeka le ɣetrɔ ga etɔ̃ me la, Petro kple Yohanes woyina gbedoxɔ la me be yewoado gbe ɖa abe ale si wowɔnɛ ɖaa ene.
2 and a certain man, being lame from the womb of his mother, was being carried, whom they were laying every day at the gate of the temple, called Beautiful, to ask a kindness from those entering into the temple,
Esi woɖo gbedoxɔ la gbɔ la, wokpɔ ŋutsu tekunɔ aɖe si wokɔ va da ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe agbo si woyɔna be, “Agbo Nyui” la nu. Amea nye tekunɔ tso eƒe dzɔdzɔme ke, eye gbe sia gbe la, wokɔnɛ va dana ɖe agbo sia nu be wòabia nu le ame siwo yina gbedoxɔ me la si.
3 who, having seen Peter and John about to go into the temple, was begging to receive a kindness.
Esi wòkpɔ Petro kple Yohanes woyina ɖe gbedoxɔa me la, edo ɣli bia wo be woana ga ye.
4 And Peter, having looked stedfastly toward him with John, said, 'Look toward us;'
Petro kple Yohanes trɔ kpɔe dũu, eye Petro gblɔ nɛ be, “Fɔ ta dzi nàkpɔ míaƒe ŋkume.”
5 and he was giving heed to them, looking to receive something from them;
Ke tekunɔ la fɔ ŋku ɖe wo dzi gãa henɔ mɔ kpɔm be woana nane ye.
6 and Peter said, 'Silver and gold I have none, but what I have, that I give to thee; in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and be walking.'
Petro gblɔ nɛ be, “Nɔvi, klosalo kple sika mele asinye o, ke nu si le asinye lae mana wò. Le Yesu Kristo, Nazaretitɔ la ƒe ŋkɔ me, tsi tsitre nàzɔ azɔli.”
7 And having seized him by the right hand, he raised [him] up, and presently his feet and ankles were strengthened,
Ale Petro do asi ɖa lé tekunɔ la ƒe alɔnu be wòatsi tsitre. Kasia tekunɔ la kpɔ be ŋusẽ ɖo yeƒe afɔ kple drikame ŋu.
8 and springing up, he stood, and was walking, and did enter with them into the temple, walking and springing, and praising God;
Ale wòti kpo, tsi tsitre hede asi azɔlizɔzɔ me. Enɔ kpo tim, nɔ zɔzɔm alea henɔ Mawu kafum, eye wòdze Petro kple Yohanes yome ge ɖe gbedoxɔ la me.
9 and all the people saw him walking and praising God,
Ame siwo katã kpɔ ame sia wònɔ zɔzɔm, nɔ Mawu kafum la
10 they were knowing him also that this it was who for a kindness was sitting at the Beautiful gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what hath happened to him.
de dzesii be eyae nye ŋutsu ma si nɔa nu biam le gbedoxɔ la ƒe agbo si woyɔna be “Agbo Nyui” la nu; Woƒe nu ku, eye woƒe mo wɔ yaa le nu si dzɔ ɖe edzi la ta.
11 And at the lame man who was healed holding Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch called Solomon's — greatly amazed,
Ŋutsu si woyɔ dɔe la mía eɖokui ɖe Petro kple Yohanes ŋu kplikplikpli va ge ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe akpa si woyɔna be, Solomo ƒe Akpata la me, eye ameha la ƒo zi va wo gbɔ eye woƒe nu ku.
12 and Peter having seen, answered unto the people, 'Men, Israelites! why wonder ye at this? or on us why look ye so earnestly, as if by our own power or piety we have made him to walk?
Esi Petro kpɔ esia la, egblɔ na wo be, “Israeltɔwo, nu ka ta nuwɔna sia wɔ nuku na mi? Nu ka ta mile mía kpɔm abe míawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋusẽ alo míaƒe kɔkɔenyenye tae míete ŋu da gbe le ame sia ŋu, ale be wòte ŋu le zɔzɔm ɖo mahã?”
13 'The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, did glorify His child Jesus, whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, he having given judgment to release [him],
Medi be eme nakɔ na mi nyuie be Mawu si nye Abraham, Isak, Yakob kple mía tɔgbuitɔgbuiwo ƒe Mawu lae da gbe le ame sia ŋu be yeatsɔ ade bubu eƒe subɔla Yesu ŋu. Yesu si miede asi hegbe nu le egbɔ le Pilato ŋkume, togbɔ be Pilato dze agbagba ale gbegbe be yeaɖe asi le eŋu hafi.
14 and ye the Holy and Righteous One did deny, and desired a man — a murderer — to be granted to you,
Miegbe nu le dzɔdzɔetɔ la kple kɔkɔetɔ la gbɔ eye miebia be wòaɖe asi le hlɔ̃dola ŋu boŋ.
15 and the Prince of the life ye did kill, whom God did raise out of the dead, of which we are witnesses;
Ɛ̃, miewu ame si nye Agbenala la gake Mawu fɔe ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome. Míawo la, míenye esia ƒe ɖaseɖilawo.
16 and on the faith of his name, this one whom ye see and have known, his name made strong, even the faith that [is] through him did give to him this perfect soundness before you all.
“Le Yesu ƒe ŋkɔ me, to xɔse me tekunɔ sia, ame si miekpɔ, eye mienya nyuie la kpɔ dɔyɔyɔ. Yesu ƒe ŋkɔ kple xɔse si vana to eƒe ŋkɔ me lae na dɔyɔyɔ bliboe abe ale si mi katã miele ekpɔm ene.
17 'And now, brethren, I have known that through ignorance ye did [it], as also your rulers;
“Azɔ nɔviwo, menya be nu si miewɔ ɖe Yesu ŋu la, mienya hafi wɔe o. Nenema kee nye mia nunɔlawo hã.
18 and God, what things before He had declared through the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ should suffer, He did thus fulfil;
Ke to wɔna siawo me la, Mawu na be nu siwo nyagblɔɖilawo gblɔ da ɖi be ele be Kristo la nakpe fu nenema la va eme.
19 reform ye, therefore, and turn back, for your sins being blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,
Ke azɔ la, nɔviwo, mitrɔ dzi me, miatrɔ ɖe Mawu ŋu, be wòatutu miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖa, eye miaxɔ fafa tso aƒetɔ la gbɔ,
20 and He may send Jesus Christ who before hath been preached to you,
ne wòaɖo Kristo si nye Yesu, ame si wòtia na mi la ɖe mi.
21 whom it behoveth heaven, indeed, to receive till times of a restitution of all things, of which God spake through the mouth of all His holy prophets from the age. (aiōn g165)
Ɛ̃, abe ale si nyagblɔɖila kɔkɔewo gblɔe da ɖi xoxoxo ene la, ele be Yesu nanɔ dziƒo va se ɖe esime Mawu naɖɔ nu sia nu ɖo keŋkeŋkeŋ. (aiōn g165)
22 'For Moses, indeed, unto the fathers said — A prophet to you shall the Lord your God raise up out of your brethren, like to me; him shall ye hear in all things, as many as he may speak unto you;
Mose hã gblɔe xoxo be, ‘Ɣeyiɣi gbɔna, esi Yehowa wò Mawu ŋutɔ aɖo nyagblɔɖila tɔxɛ aɖe ɖe mia dome, tso mia nɔviwo dome abe nye Mose pɛpɛpɛ ene. Anyo na mi be miaɖo to nu sia nu si wòagblɔ na mi,
23 and it shall be, every soul that may not hear that prophet shall be utterly destroyed out of the people;
elabena woatsrɔ̃ ame sia ame si mase eƒe gbe, awɔ ɖe edzi o la le eƒe amewo dome.’
24 and also all the prophets from Samuel and those following in order, as many as spake, did also foretell of these days.
“Vavã nyagblɔɖilawo katã, tso Samuel ŋɔli va ɖo fifia hã ƒo nu tso nu siwo le dzɔdzɔm egbegbe la ŋu.
25 'Ye are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant that God made unto our fathers, saying unto Abraham: And in thy seed shall be blessed all the families of the earth;
Miawoe nye nyagblɔɖila siawo ƒe dzidzimeviwo, eye nu si Mawu bla kple mia tɔgbuiwo la, miawo hã miele eme. Mawu bla nu kple Abraham be, ‘Woayra xexea me blibo la to wò dzidzimeviwo dzi.’
26 to you first, God, having raised up His child Jesus, did send him, blessing you, in the turning away of each one from your evil ways.'
Le nubabla sia ta, esi Mawu ɖo eƒe dɔla ɖe xexea me la, eɖoe ɖe mia gbɔ gbã be wòayra mi, miadzudzɔ nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ, atrɔ va Mawu gbɔ.”
