Dagiti Aramid 12
1 Ita, kadagidiay metlaeng a tiempo, ni Herodes nga ari, inkabilna ti imana iti dadduma kadagiti nagtaud iti taripnong tapno pagaramidanna ida iti saan a nasayaat.
Around this time King Herod began to persecute some members of the church.
2 Pinatayna ni Santiago a kabsat ni Juan babaen iti kampilan.
He had James, John's brother, executed by sword.
3 Kalpasan a nakitana a naay-ayo daytoy dagiti Judio, intuloyna a tiniliw met ni Pedro. Dayta ket kabayatan dagiti aldaw ti saan a nalebaduraan a tinapay.
When he saw that the Jews were pleased by this, he had Peter arrested too. (This was during the Feast of Unleavened Bread.)
4 Kalpasan a tiniliwda isuna, impupokna isuna iti pagbaludan ken nangdutok isuna iti uppat a bunggoy dagiti soldado a mangbantay kenkuana; pangpanggepenna nga ipan isuna kadagiti tattao kalpasan ti Ilalabas.
After having Peter arrested, he threw him in prison, with four squads of four soldiers each to guard him. He planned to have Peter brought out for a public trial after the Passover.
5 Isu a ni Pedro ket nagtalinaed iti pagbaludan, ngem sipapasnek ti taripnong a nagkararag iti Dios para kenkuana.
While Peter was kept in prison the church prayed earnestly to God for him.
6 Iti rabii ti aldaw sakbay iti ipapan ni Herodes a mangirruar kenkuana, matmaturog ni Pedro iti nagbaetan ti dua a soldado, nagalutan iti dua a kawar; ken adda dagiti guardia iti sango ti ruangan a mangbanbantay iti pagbaludan.
The night before Herod was to have him put on trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, chained to each of them, and with guards at the door keeping watch.
7 Pagammoan, adda anghel ti Apo a kellaat a nagparang iti abayna, ket adda lawag a nagraniag iti selda. Sinagidna iti sikigan ni Pedro ken riniingna isuna ket kinunana, “Partakam ti bumangon.” Kalpasanna, dagiti kawar ket natinnag manipud kadagiti imana.
Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared, and a light shone in the cell. The angel shook Peter awake, saying “Quick! Get up!” The chains fell from his wrists,
8 Kinuna ti anghel kenkuana, “Agkaweska ken ikursongmo dagiti sandaliasmo.” Kasta ngarud ti inaramid ni Pedro. Kinuna ti anghel kenkuana, “Ikawesmo ti makinruar a pagan-anaymo ken surotennak.”
and the angel told him, “Get dressed, and put on your sandals.” So he did. Then the angel told him, “Put on your coat and follow me.”
9 Isu a simmurot ni Pedro ket rimmuarda. Saanna nga ammo a ti inaramid ti anghel ket pudno. Iti pagarupna, sirmata ti makitkitana.
So Peter followed the angel out. He didn't realize that what the angel was doing was actually happening—he thought he was seeing a vision.
10 Kalpasan a linabsanda ti umuna a guardia ken ti maikadua, dimtengda iti landok a ruangan nga agturong iti siudad; naglukat daytoy a bukbukodna para kadakuada. Rimmuarda ken simmalogda iti kalsada, ket dagus a pinanawan isuna ti anghel.
They passed the first and second sets of guards, and came to the iron gate that led into the city. This opened for them by itself. They went out and down the street, when suddenly the angel left him.
11 Idi agbalaw ni Pedro, kinunana, “Ita, pudno nga ammokon nga imbaon ti Apo ti anghelna ket insalakannak manipud iti ima ni Herodes, ken manipud iti amin a namnamaen dagiti tattao a Judio.”
When Peter came to his senses, he said, “Now I realize this really happened! The Lord sent an angel to rescue me from Herod's power, and from everything that the Jewish people had planned.”
12 Kalpasan a naamirisna daytoy, dimteng isuna iti balay ni Maria, ti ina ni Juan a ti apilyedona ket Marcos; adu a namati ti naguummong sadiay ken agkarkararag.
Now that he was conscious of what had happened, Peter went to the house of Mary, the mother of John Mark. Many believers had gathered there, and were praying.
13 Idi nagtuktok isuna iti ridaw ti ruangan, immay simmungbat ti adipen a babai a managan Rhoda.
When he knocked on the gateway door, a servant girl called Rhoda came to open up.
14 Idi nabigbigna ti timek ni Pedro, saannan a linukatan ti ridaw gapu iti ragsakna; no di ket nagtaray isuna a napan iti siled; impadamagna nga agtaktakder ni Pedro iti ridaw.
But recognizing Peter's voice, in her excitement she didn't open the door. Instead she ran back inside shouting, “Peter's at the door!”
15 Isu a kinunada kenkuana, “Agmauyongka.” Ngem impapilitna a dayta ti pudno. Kinunada, “Dayta ket ti anghelna.”
“You're mad!” they told her. But she kept on insisting it was true. So they said, “It must be his angel.”
16 Ngem intuloy ni Pedro ti nagtuktuktok, ket idi linukatanda ti ridaw, nakitada isuna ket nagsiddaawda.
Peter continued knocking. When they did eventually open the door, they saw it was him, and were totally shocked.
17 Nagsenyas ni Pedro kadakuada babaen iti imana nga agulimekda, ken imbagana kadakuada no kasano nga inruar isuna ti Dios idiay pagbaludan. Kinunana, “Ipadamagyo dagitoy a banbanag kenni Santiago ken kadagiti kakabsat a lallaki.” Kalpasanna, pimmanaw isuna ket napan iti sabali a lugar.
Peter held up his hand for them to be quiet, and then explained to them how the Lord had led him out of the prison. “Let James and the brothers know about this,” he told them, and then left to go somewhere else.
18 Ita, idi umaldawen, awan ti uray bassit a gagar kadagiti soldado maipapan iti napasamak kenni Pedro.
When daylight came the soldiers were totally confused as to what had happened to Peter.
19 Kalpasan a biniruk isuna ni Herodes ket saanna a mabirukan isuna, pinalutpotna dagiti guardia ket kalpasanna, imbilinna a mapapatayda. Kalpasanna, simmalog isuna manipud Judea ket nagturong idiay Caesarea ket nagtalinaed sadiay.
Herod had a thorough search made for him, but he couldn't be found. After interrogating the guards, Herod ordered that they should be executed. Then Herod left Judea and went to stay in Caesarea.
20 Ita, nakapungtot unay ni Herodes kadagiti tattao ti Tiro ken Sidon. Nagkuyog dagitoy a napan kenkuana. Inallukoyda ni Blasto, a katulongan ti ari, a tulunganna ida. Ket dinawatda ti kapia, gapu ta adda idi naawat ti pagilianda a taraon manipud iti pagilian ti ari.
Now Herod had become furious with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They sent a joint delegation to see him and managed to win Blastus, the king's personal assistant, over to their side. They pleaded for peace with Herod because they were dependent on the king's territory for food.
21 Iti naituding nga aldaw, nagkawes ni Herodes iti pagan-anayna kas ari ket nagtugaw iti trono; nagbitla kadakuada.
When the day came for their appointment with the king, Herod put on his royal robes, sat on his throne, and gave a speech to them.
22 Nagpukkaw dagiti tattao, “Daytoy ket timek iti maysa a dios, saan nga iti tao!
The audience shouted in response, “This is the voice of a god, not that of a man!”
23 Dagus a dinangran isuna ti anghel ti Dios, gapu ta saanna nga inted iti Dios ti pammadayaw; kinnan isuna dagiti igges ket natay.
Immediately the angel of the Lord struck him down, because he did not give God the glory. He was consumed by worms and died.
24 Ngem ti sao ti Dios ket dimmakel ken immadu.
But the word of God spread, and more and more people believed.
25 Kalpasan a lineppas da Bernabe ken Saulo ti gapuanan iti nakaibaonanda idiay Jerusalem, nagsublida manipud sadiay; inkuyogda ni Juan, a Marcos ti apilyedona.
Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem once they had finished their mission, taking John Mark with them.
