Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 12
1 Mu mwanya ogwo omukama Herode nagolola okubhoko kwae ku bhanu abhandi bhalya abhasoka mu likofyanyisho koleleki abhanyashe.
About that time Herod the king exerted his power to distress some of the church.
2 Namwita Yakobo omumula wabho Yohana kwa lipanga.
And he cut off James, the brother of John, with the sword.
3 Ejile alola ati jabhakondela Abhayaudi, namugwata Petro lindi. Gunu gwaliga guli mwanya gwa jinsiku je emikate jinu jitalimo chifwimbhya.
And seeing that it was pleasing to the Jews, he proceeded to apprehend Peter also, (in the days of unleavened bread: )
4 Ejile amugwata, namuta mwibhoyelo natao kuti bhise bhina bya bhasilikale koleleki bhamulinde, aliga nenda okumusila ku bhanu ikamala okulabhao ipasaka.
whom he seized and put into prison, delivering him to four quaternions of soldiers to guard him; intending, after the passover, to bring him out to the people.
5 Petro natulwa mwibhoyelo, nawe lisabhwa nilikolwa kwa mananga ne likofyanyisho lyona ingulu yae ku Nyamuanga.
Peter was therefore kept in custody: but incessant prayer was made to God for him by the church.
6 Luchali kukinga olusiku lwa Herode okuja okumusoshamo, mugeta eyo Petro aliga amamile agati-gati ya bhasilikale bhabhili kenu abhoyelwe na mabhoyelo na bhalindi imbhele yo mulyango gwa libhoyelo.
And when Herod was about to bring him forth, that very night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the guards at the door watched the prison.
7 Lola, Malaika wa Latabugenyi ao nao namusolomokela mu bhwelu bhunu bhaliga bhusekana namunda ya inyumba. Namubhuma Petro mulubhafu no kumulafya naika,”Imuka bhwangu.” Mbe ebhibhoyelo bhinu bhyaliga bhimubhoyele nibhisulumuka nibhisoka mu mabhoko gae.
And behold an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the room; and smiting Peter on the side, he waked him, and said, Rise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
8 Malaika namubhwila,”nufwale jingubho ne bhikwilya bhyao.” Petro nakola kutyo. Malaika namubhwila,”fwala ebhifwalo bhyao na undubhe.”
And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself and tie on thy sandals: and he did so. And he saith unto him, Throw thy garment round thee, and follow me.
9 Kulwejo Petro namulubha malaika Mbe nauluka anja. Atekilisishe chinu chakolelwe na malaika kuti ni ja chimali. Aliga netogela ati kalola bhilolo.
So he went out and followed him; and he did not know, that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
10 Ejile Alabha kwilindo lyo kwamba ne lya kabhili, nibhakinga ku lwigi lwe chuma olwo kwingilila okuja mu musi, nilubhegukila olwene ingulu ya abhene. nibhauluka anja nibhatula kumwila, okumala malaika namusiga.
And passing through the first and second guard, they came to the iron gate, that leadeth into the city, which of its own accord opened to them: and they went out and passed on through one street; and then the angel departed from him.
11 Petro ejile emenya, naika ati, “oli nekilisha ati Latabugenyi niwe amatuma malaika wae koleleki bhansoshe mu mabhoko ga Herode, na mu bhwima bhwa bhanu bhone abha Bhayaudi.
And Peter being come to himself said, Now I know truly, that the Lord hath sent his angel and hath delivered me from the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
12 Wejile Amala okumenya ganu, naja ku nyumba ya Mariamu nyilamwene Yohana unu elindi ni Marko; Abhakristo bhafu bhekofyanyishe nibhasabhwa.
And considering with himself, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, who was sirnamed Mark, where many were gathered together and praying.
13 Ejile akonona ku lwigi lunu olwigala lilango, omukosi umwi we chiyalakaji unukatogwa Roda naja okwigula
And when Peter knocked at the door of the porch, a servant named Rhoda came to ask who was there.
14 . Ejile abhumenya obhulaka bhwa Petro kwo bhukondeleywe natamibhwa okugwigula omulyango; amwi nebhyo, nabhilimila munju no kubhamenyesha ati Petro emeleguyu anja imbhele yo mulyango.
And knowing Peter's voice, through excess of joy she did not open the door, but ran in and told them, that Peter was standing at the door.
15 Kwibhyo, nibhamubhwila ati “wasala” nawe mwenene nagendelela-la okubhabhwila no kukomelesha ati ni chimali nio omwene. Nibhaika ati “oyo ni malaika wae.”
And they said to her, Thou art mad: but she confidently affirmed that it was so. Then said they, It is his angel.
16 Mbe nawe Petro nagendelelala okukonona, bhejile bhagwigula omulyango, nibhamulola Mbe nibhatang'ang'ala muno. Petro nabhajibhisha kwo kubhoko bhujibie-jibhie no kubhabhwila lwa kutyo Latabugenyi amusolomokee mwibhoyelo. Naika,”
But Peter continued knocking; and when they opened the door, they saw him, and were astonished.
17 nubhamenyeshe amasango ganu Yakobo na bhaili bhae.” Okumala nasokao nagenda mwibhala lindi.
But he made a sign to them with his hand to be silent, and related to them, how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go, tell these things to James and to the other brethren. And he departed and went to another place.
18 Mbe yejile yakinga mumwisi, nibhubhao obhusulumbhae bhwafu mu bhasilikale, okulubhana na chinu chabhonekene ku Petro.
Now as soon as it was day, there was no small disturbance among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
19 Ejile Herode namuyenja nawe nalema omubhona nabhabhusha abhalindi no kulagilila bhetwe. Nasokao bhuyaudi nagenda Kaisaria no kwikala eyo.
And Herod searching for him, and not finding him, brought the keepers to a trial, and ordered them to be executed. Then he went down from Judea to Cesarea, and abode there.
20 Herode aliga abhanyigalie abhanu bha Tiro na Sidoni. Nibhagendela amwi ewae. Nibhabha no bhusani na Blasto omusakisi wo mkama, koleleki abhasakile. Okumala nibhasabhwa omlembe, ku nsonga echalo chebhwe chabhwene ebhilyo okusoka mu Chalo cho bhukama.
And Herod was going to make war upon the Tyrians and Sidonians: but they came to him with one consent, and making interest with Blastus the king's chamberlain, they sued for peace; because their territory was supplied with provision by the king's country.
21 olusiku lunu Herode aliga alulamulie nafwala ebhifwalo bhye chikama no kwinyanja ku chitebhe chae eche chikama, no kubhasimulila.
And upon a set day, Herod arrayed in his royal robes, and sitting upon his throne, made an oration to them.
22 Abhanu nibhayogana,” bhunu ni bhulaka bhwa Nyamuanga nolwo bhutali bhulaka bhwo mwana munu!”
And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man:
23 Ao nao malaika namubhuma, kulwo kubha atamuyae Nyamuanga likusho; nalibhwa na liuka nafwa.
but immediately an angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and being devoured by worms he died.
24 Mbe nawe omusango gwa Nyamuanga nigukula no kwiyongesha muno.
But the word of God grew and was multiplied.
25 Barnaba na Sauli Bhejile bhamala obhufulubhendi bhwebhwe nibhasokao ao nibhasubha Yerusalemu, nibhamugega na Yohana unu lisina lyae elyo inogwa (bhwibhulwa) ni Marko.
And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their charge, taking along with them John who was sirnamed Mark.
