Katwa Nono Katwa 5
1 Nanin umong wadiku unan yinusa uyenu lisame wadi Hananiya nin wani me Sarfatu. Amini wa lewu kunen me.
But there was one of [the believers] whose name was Ananias, and whose wife’s name was Sapphira. He [also] sold some land.
2 Amini wa ceu imong ikubu ilena alewe kunen gye. anin daa nmin kagisingyekiti nono kadura. Uwani me wang wayinin asuu nanin,
He kept for himself some of the money [he had received for the land], and his wife knew that he had done that. Then he brought the rest of the money and presented it to the apostles [MTY].
3 Bitrus nin woro gye. “Hananiya bara yangyari shetan pira kibinai fee uminin taa Ufunu Ulau kulapi. bari yangya ri taa uminin su imong ine? Uceu imong ikubu kitife kitene ni lemon na ulewe kunen fie na una nari ikube vat baa.
Then Peter said, “Ananias, you [(sg)] let Satan completely control you [MTY] so that you [(sg) tried to] deceive the Holy Spirit [and us(exc)]. (That was [terrible!/Why did you do such a terrible thing]?) [RHQ] [You] have kept for yourself some of the money you [(sg)] received for [selling] the land, [pretending that you(sg) were giving us all of it].
4 Kubi na iwadi isa lewe kunene ba, kunfere wadi ba? Na una lewe, na ikube wadi nacara fere ba? Ani bara yangyari taa uma su imong inazan ilele? Aina arikari urusuzo nari ba, Kutelle ri udi cinu urusuzu gye.
Before you [(sg)] sold that land, you truly owned [RHQ] it. And after you sold it, you could [RHQ] certainly still have used the money any way you wanted [to]. So why did you [(sg) ever] think [RHQ] about doing this [wicked] thing? You were not [merely trying to] deceive us! No, [you tried to deceive] God [himself!]!”
5 Dana Hananiya lanza timape atin na adeu kutin akuu camcam. Vat alena ilanza ilemong na ise Hananiya ku tin ilanza fiu kang.
When Ananias heard that, [immediately] he fell down dead. So all [who were there] who heard [about Ananias’ death] became terrified [PRS].
6 Uzaman tina idaa iyira libe idikasa.
Some young men came in, wrapped his [body in a sheet], and carried it out [and] buried it.
7 Kubi nikoro itat ame uwani me pira, na awa yiru ilemong na ise ba.
About three hours later, his wife came in, [but] she did not know what had happened.
8 Bitrus nin nuna gye ikubu ilena ulesume damun anin tiringye.”Benli, ligang nikubere ina lewu kunengye? Aminin wa belin nenere ilemong na tina lewu kunengye.
[As] Peter [showed her the money] that [Ananias had brought], he asked her, “Tell me, is this the amount [of money you two received for] the land you sold?” She said, “Yes, that’s [what we(exc) received].”
9 Bara nanin Bitrus nin woro gye,”vat mine suu imong inanzan! Anin na bea, yinna irusuzu Ufunu Ulau Cikilari! Lanza! ulanza ucin nazamang alena inuzu kasu cikilari fea? idin das kibulun gye, ima yiru fii udu das tutun.
So Peter said to her, “[You both did a terrible thing!] You two agreed [RHQ] to try to determine if you could do that without the Spirit of the Lord [God] revealing [to anyone that you two tried to deceive them!] Listen! [Do you(sg) hear the] footsteps [SYN] of the men who buried your husband? They are right outside this door, and they will carry your [corpse] out [to bury it, too]!”
10 Nanin molu kubi ba Sarfatu tin na adiu kutin libe na bunu Bitrus. Angyene pira yene gye adio libe tutun iyira libea itin idi kasu kupopo kisek lese.
Immediately Sapphira fell down dead at Peter’s feet. Then the young men came in. When they saw that she was dead, they carried her [body] out and buried it beside her husband’s [body].
11 Vat anin yinu sauyenu nanya Urshalima laza fiu kang, bara nilemong na Kutelle su Hananiya nin Sarfatu ku. kogya na lanza ile imongye lazan fiu kang.
So all the believers [in Jerusalem] became greatly frightened [PRS] [because of what God had done to Ananias and Sapphira. And] all [the others] who heard [people tell about] those things also [became greatly frightened].
12 Kutelle suu kata ka zikiki nanya na cara nono kadura me ninin anit yino kidere ilemon na iwa din dursuzu anit. Vat ananyinu sa uyenu tinna tina zursuzu kolome liri nanya kuti lira kika na idin yici nin lisa Solomo perch.
[God was enabling] the apostles to do many amazing miracles among the people. All the believers were meeting together regularly [in the temple courtyard] at [the place called] Solomon’s Porch.
13 Vat anite alena iyina nin Yesu ba lanza ifeu anan yinusauyene. Bara nanin anit alele leu ubun lanzu fiu nananyinu sauyenu.
All of the other people [who had not yet believed in Jesus] were afraid to associate with the believers, [because they knew that if they did anything evil, God would punish them, as well as revealing it to the believers]. However, those people continued to greatly respect the believers.
14 Among anit nin awni tin na iyina nin Cikilari Yesu, inin munu atii nin nananyinusauyenu.
Many more men and women started believing in the Lord [Jesus], and they joined the [group of] believers.
15 Bara nanin taa, anite tinna dasu nin na tikunu kitene libau danna inin nonkuzo nanin kupia nin nanin andi kuyulin Bitrus na dudo nanin inan shino ti konumine.
[The apostles were doing amazing miracles], so [people] were bringing those who were sick into the streets, and laying them on stretchers and mats, in order that [when] Peter came by [he would touch them, or] at least his shadow might fall upon some of them [and heal them].
16 Anit gbardan nuzu ni gbirin Urshalima daa kiti nono kata. Inanin wadasu nin nanan tikonu kiti minenin nalena ufunu na gwerganu kifo nanin. Kutelle mini wa shin nanin tikonu mine.
Crowds of people were also coming [to the apostles] from the towns near Jerusalem. They were bringing their sick [relatives/friends] and those who were being tormented/troubled by evil spirits {whom evil spirits were tormenting/troubling}, and [God] healed all of them.
17 Aprist adidewe vat nin nale na iwadi ligowe nin na Sandikiwa iwa di ligo mine inin lanza ayi nin nono katawe.
Then the high priest and all who were with him, who were members of the [local] Sadducee [sect in Jerusalem], became very jealous [of the apostles, because many people were accepting the apostles’ message].
18 Bara nanin inin taa anan sun caa kiti lira ikifo nono kataa we inanin watii nanin nanya kuti licin.
So they commanded the Temple guards to seize the apostles and put them in the public jail.
19 Nin kitik anan kadura Kutelle daa atina apuno kiti licin atina anutuno nono Kutelle nutuno nanin das! nin nanin unan kadura Kutelle woro
[The guards did that], but during the night an angel from the Lord [God] opened the jail doors and brought the apostles outside! [The guards were not aware of what the angel had done].
20 nono kadure, “can udu kiti lira ibeling anite kadura tucu lai usalin ligang.
Then the angel said [to the apostles], “Go to the Temple [courtyard], stand there, and tell the people all about [how God can give them eternal] life!”
21 Nin lanzu nanin itinna ipira nanya kutin lirainin tin na dursuzu anit kitenen Yeesu tutun. Nin nanin ku Prist kudiawe nin na lena iwa di ligowe ipitrino a Yahudawe. Ligowe nin na dide na Israila. Nin kidun na ipitirino ligowe, inin tuo apolise kuti licingye inan nutuno nono kadure.
So having heard this, about dawn they entered the Temple [courtyard] and began to teach the people again [about Jesus]. Acts 5:21b-24 Meanwhile, the high priest and those who were with him summoned the other Jewish Council members. Altogether they made up the entire Council of Israel. [After they all gathered together], they sent [guards] to the jail to bring in the apostles.
22 A me ulena awa di unan kutii licin gye yene nono kata we dikub. Nin nanin intin ikwilla udu kiti na didemine ulire.
But when the guards arrived at the jail, they discovered that the apostles were not there. So they returned to the Council, and [one of] them reported,
23 “Ti yene kuti licin wa kunlun kan anan sungadi wa yisin kitiy. Vat nin nanin dana tipira ti kifo anit ane tinanin se kutiye mmpono tinanin dira nanin kuti licin gye.
“We [(exc)] saw that the jail [doors] were very securely locked, and the guards were standing at the doors. But when we opened [the doors and went in to get those men], none [of them was] inside [the jail]!”
24 Dana ude na kaptin kutii lira nin na Prist lanza nani, inanin wa nibinai mine tin na ni bunkurno, ilanza umamaki iyizari imon ne mati nanin.
When the captain of the temple guards and the chief priests heard that, they became greatly perplexed, [wondering] what might result from all this.
25 Umong nin da ada belle nanin “latizani! ai nene anit ane na ina ti nanin kutii licingye inanin yisin nanya Kutin lira inanin din dursuzu anite.
Then someone came [from the Temple courtyard] and [excitedly] reported to them, “Listen [to this! Right now] the men whom you put in jail are standing in the Temple [courtyard] and they are teaching the people [about Jesus]!”
26 Nanin ukaptin bkuti lira nuzu aduo kutin lira nin nanan kataa me, ina wa danin nono ktawe kutii ma wucuwucu mine. Nanin ma, na iwasu nanin ti kanci b. bara iwa laza fiu anite ma molu nanin nin na tala.
So the captain [of the Temple guards] went [to the Temple courtyard] with the officers, and they brought the apostles [back to the Council room. But they] did not treat them roughly, because they were afraid that the people would [kill them by] throwing stones at them [if they hurt the apostles].
27 Nin kidun ukaptin nin nanan kataa me daa nin nono katawe kuti mawucuwucu, inanin wa tii nanin iyisin mmbung nanite nanya kutii licin gye nin nanin ku Prist kudewe tirino nanin
After [the captain and his officers] had brought [the apostles to the Council room], they commanded them to stand in front of the Council members, and the high priest questioned them.
28 Anin woro nanin,”Ti belin minu na iwa su madursuzu nin lisa Yesu b. inanin nari ulanzun liru bit, inanin dursuzo anite vat nanye Urshalima kitene me. Nin linbung, inanin duro anit nafo arikari dinin kulapi inkulme!
He said to them [accusingly], “We [(exc)] strongly commanded you not to teach people about that man [MTY] [Jesus] But [you have disobeyed us, and] you have taught people all over Jerusalem [about him]! Furthermore, you are trying to make it seem that we [(exc)] are the ones who are guilty [MTY] for that man’s death!”
29 Bara nanin Bitrus, lirina mmemoku nono katawe woro,”Tima lanzu uliru ule na Kutell benle nari ti su, na ilemon na anit benle nari ti su ba!
But Peter, [speaking for himself] and the other apostles, replied, “We [(exc)] have to obey [what] God [commands us to do], not what [you] people [tell us to do]!
30 Ai anigyere na molu Yesu ku nin kotigye nakusa kitene kuca koneVat nanin Kutelle kona acif bit na rugye na fea gye amini idinin lai tutun nin kidun na ana kuu.
God considers that you are the ones who killed Jesus by nailing him to a cross! But God, whom our ancestors [worshipped], (caused Jesus to become alive again after he died/raised Jesus from the dead).
31 Kutelle na antin Yesu ku nin bun nin kogy. Ana tiigye asu nari utucu nin su umulkibit. Amini na tii nanar ti cin kulapi. Bara anin shawa nin kulapi bit
God has greatly honored Jesus. [He has taken him up to heaven! He has authorized him] to be the one who will save us and to rule [over our lives! God did this] so that he might enable [us] Israelites [MTY] to turn away from [our] sinful behavior and [that he might] forgive [us for our sins].
32 Tidin belu anit kitene ni lemong gyere na ina se Yesu ku. Ufunu Ulau ulena Kutelle na ninar, yinna ule ulire kiden ahri.
We [(exc)] tell people about these things [that we know happened to Jesus], and the Holy Spirit, whom God has sent to [us] who obey him, is also confirming [that these things are true].”
33 Dana anan ma wucuwucu lanza nanin, inanin wa lanza ayii kan nin gyinu, inanin wa cinu umolu nanin
When the Council members heard those words, they became very angry [with the apostles], and they wanted to kill them.
34 Bara umong unit wa diku lisa me Gamaliyal. Ame ma wa di owa rum nanya na Farisawa. Ana dursuzo anit ma dudu na Yahudawe, vat a Yahudawe din lanzu infiu m, anin fitananya kuti mawucuwucu aworo, inutun nono kaduro inutun nanin udas nin kubi baat.
But [there was a Council member] named Gamaliel. He was a Pharisee, and one who taught people the [Jewish] laws, and all the [Jewish] people respected him. He stood up in the Council and told [guards] to take the apostles out [of the room] for a short time.
35 Nin kidung, itina inutuno nono kadura udas, amini wa beling usaran anan mawucuwuce,”Nuana nin Israila na ti su uhankali nin nilemon na tima su anite alele,
[After the guards had taken the apostles out], he said to the other Council members, “Fellow Israelites, you need to think carefully about what you are about to do to these men, [and I will tell you why].
36 Nin nakus kidung, umong lisame wa di Tidawus awa su kulapi. Amini wa beling anit ame unit ucinari, anin akut ku tocun dofingye. Inanin wa molugy, vat anit alena iwa din dortugye tin mala kiti. bara nanin na iwa yinin isu ilemon ana yinin amsu ba.
Some years ago [a man named] Theudas rebelled [against the Roman government]. He told people that he was an important person, and about 400 men joined [him. But he was killed] {[soldiers] killed him} and all those who had been accompanying him were scattered. [So they] were not able to do anything [that they had planned].
37 Nin kidung nani, kubi kone na iwa nyerti tisa nanit na ima su, umong lisa me Yahuda, kusaring ka gbirin Galili ta kulapi amini wa tii anit idofingye. Bara nanin iwa molugye vat anit alena iwadin dortugye mala kiti kap udu nitiniti.
After that, during the time when they were (writing down names of the people/taking the census) [in order to tax people, a man named] Judas from Galilee [province] rebelled [against the Roman government]. He persuaded some people to accompany him. But [soldiers] killed him, too, and all those who had accompanied him went off in different directions.
38 Nene in beling minu: Na lanza anite le ukule ba! Cinon nanin! Inbenle nanin bara, andi imong ilena idinsusu inuzu kitin nitar, umong ma tii nanin icin, Inanin ima diu.
So now I say [this] to you: Do not harm these men! Release them! I say this because if [this is just something] that humans have planned, they will not be able to do it. They will fail, [like Theudas and Judas did]
39 Andi Kutelleri taa nanin isu ile imone, na iwagya iwatina nanin use ba, bara nanin ima na se idin suugaba nin Kutele ri! Among nanya wucuwucu yina nin liri Gamalial.
But, if God [has commanded them to do it], you will not be able to prevent them [from doing it, because] you will find out that you are opposing God!” The other members of the Council accepted what Gamaliel said.
40 Inani wa yiccila nono kadure nanya, ikpizo nanin. Anan mawucuwucu nin kpada nani na iwa dursuzo anit kitenen Yesu tutun ba inin cino nani.
They told the [temple guards to bring the apostles and flog them. So the guards] brought them [into the Council room] and flogged them. Then the Council members commanded them not to speak to people about [MTY] Jesus, and they released the apostles.
41 Nono kadure cino kiti ma wucuze, nin liburi libo kan, bara i wa yiru Kutelle angtina nanin kan nin ni nanite icin bara udortu Yesu
So the apostles left the Council. They were rejoicing, because [they knew God] had honored them [by letting people] disgrace them because they were followers [MTY] of Jesus.
42 Kolome liri nin kidun nono kadura pira kutin lira nin ni lari nanit inanin wa libun indursuzu nanite ai Yesu unaere Christe.
And every day [the apostles went to] the temple [area] and to various [people’s] houses, [and] they continued [LIT] teaching [people] and telling [them] that Jesus is the Messiah.
