Katwa Nono Katwa 9
1 Vat nani Shawulu leo ubun inziu nanan dortu Kutelle. Amini wa do kiti ndia kutii nlira n-urushalima.
Meanwhile Saul, still exhaling murderous threats against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest
2 Aworoghe inghe ma-nyertu- nyertu ma na a ba dumu kitii na didia natii inlira n-Damaskos. Ma nyerte wa nighe aghang ale na aba kivinu uzaman nan na wani ale na idin dortu libau Ise, akuru a cisoni natii nacin n-Urshalime, bari adi-dia na nan wucu kideinne ba funuani.
and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, so that if he should find any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
3 Ku bi ko na Shawulu nan nan cinme wa din cinu udu Udamaskos, na nin daudaunu ba, umon kanang tua unuzu kitene kani mu kilinghe.
So it happened, as he was going, that he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven shone around him;
4 Atunna a deou kutin, a lanza liwui nuzu kitene kani, liworoghe, “Shawulu, Shawulu, bari yanghari udin ni nantiting uwuya?”
and falling to the ground he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?”
5 Shawulu tiringhe, “Cikilari, fe ghari?” A kawaghe aworo, “Mere Yesu, ullenge na udin yooghe.
So he said, “Who are you, Lord?” So the Lord said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting;
6 Vat nani fita upiru nanya kagbiri! Umon nanya kagbire ba bellinfi ilemo na umasu.”
but get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”
7 Alenghe na iwa di nin Shawule lanza fiu, na iyinno ubellu nimomon ba.
The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, hearing the sound but seeing no one.
8 Shawule fita kutene, da na apuno iyizzime, na ayinno uyenju nimomom. A nit arka na iwa di ninghe, kifoghe nchara udumu na kipin Damaskos.
Then Saul got up from the ground, and upon opening his eyes he saw no one; so leading him by the hand they brought him into Damascus.
9 Shawulu ta ayiri a tat, na nin yenju kitiba, ana awa lii sa asono imomon ba.
He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.
10 Ndamaskos, umong waduku ulenge na iwa yicighe Hananiya unan dortu Yesu. Cikilari Yesu ta Hananiya nanyan namoro-yenju, a aworoghe, “Hananiya!” Ame kpana aworo “Cikilari, nding latizu.”
Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias, and the Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias!” So he said, “Here I am, Lord.”
11 Cikilari Yesu woroghe, “cang umong ulayi na idin yicu ning 'udert' ule na udo nghan Yahuda. Utirin lisan mong unit na idin yicighe Shawulu kunan kagbirin Tarsus, nene adin foyi nachara.
So the Lord said to him: “Get up and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas inquire by name for Saul of Tarsus; because, you see, he is praying,
12 Shawulu wadi amal yenu nanya namoron yenju kiti, umon unit na idin yicughe Hananiya pira kilari kirika na awa duku atardaghe achara bara anan yenje kiti tutung.”
and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and placing a hand on him, so that he might recover his sight.”
13 Hananiya kpana aworo, “Cikilari, anit gbardang nabelli ubelleng nnit ulele! A su imon inanza gbardang kitene na rika na iyinna nifin Urshalima.
But Ananias answered: “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how many evil things he has done to Your saints in Jerusalem.
14 Ame na malu seru niyert kiti na didyawe, ulenge na una nighe likara akifizo arikana iyina nifi kikane Damaskos.”
Moreover here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who are calling on Your name.”
15 Vat nani Chikilare woroghe, su immon irika nan belling fi usu, “Can kitin Shawulu!, bara nan nfereghe a suyi katua litinighe nin arika na isali aYahudawa anan na goomine nan nIsrailawe.
But the Lord said to him: “Get moving, because this man is a chosen vessel to me, to carry my name before nations and kings, also the children of Israel;
16 Memma litinighe ba belling nghe, aba niu kan kiti nanit bari ubellinani uliru litinighe.”
for I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name's sake.”
17 Hananiya nya a pira kilari kirka na Shawulu diku. Da na ayene Shuwulueku, a tardaghe achara litime, anin woroghe,”Gwana Shawulu, C; hikilari Yesu ntoyi kitife. Amere wa dak kitife kubi ko na uwa di libau udu uDamaskos. Amere na tuyi kitife bara unan kuru use uyenju kiti, tutung uRuhu ulau bara yiru likara litife.”
So Ananias went and entered the house, and placing his hands on him he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me so that you may recover your sight and be filled by Holy Spirit.”
18 Nanin dandaunu ba, imonimon nafo imart nibo deu niyizin Shawulu, anin tunnan yenju tutung. Anin fita itaghe ushintunu nmyen milau.
Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he recovered his sight forthwith; and getting up he was baptized,
19 Kimal nlii nimonlin Shawulu, ase likara kidowo tutung. Shawulu so nin namong anan dortun Yesu nayiri gbardang.
and upon receiving food he was strengthened. So Saul was with the disciples in Damascus for a number of days.
20 Na nin dandaunu ba, atunnan bellun belle Yesu nanya nati nlira mine in wo amere gono Kutelle.
Immediately he started proclaiming Jesus in the synagogues, that He is the Son of the God.
21 Vat nalenge na iwa lanzaghe puzuno tunu inin din bellu, “Na ulelere din nanzu narika na iwadin Urushalima anan yiccu kitenen lissa lole ba? Tutung ada kiti kane anan tere nani a yauna udumun kitin Priest.”
Well, all who heard him were astounded and started saying: “Isn't this the one who tried to destroy, in Jerusalem, those who called on this name? Even here he had come with that purpose, that he might take them bound to the high priests.”
22 Ama Bulus wase likara asu uwazi abellu a Yahudawa na idin Damaskus au Yesu amere Kristi.
But Saul kept growing stronger and kept on confounding the Jews who lived in Damascus, proving that ‘This One is the Christ.’
23 Na ayira gbardang in kata, A Yahudawa kyele atimine nwo imollughe.
Now when a good many days had passed, the Jews plotted to kill him;
24 Ama Shawulu wa lanza ile imon na idinin su isughe. Iwaso ncca kibulughe kiti nin lirin inan mologhe.
but their plot became known to Saul. They started watching the gates day and night, so that they might kill him;
25 Ama nono katwa me yaughe inin toltinghe ligitiri, iwa ghatinghe nin kukuzughari.
so the disciples took him by night and passed him through the wall, lowering him in a hamper.
26 Na anin da u'Urushalima, Shawulu mala udofinun nono katwa, ama vat inghune wadin lanzu fiume, na iwa yinnin ame wang gono katwari ba.
Now upon arriving in Jerusalem Saul kept trying to join himself to the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
27 Ama Barnabas yaunghe adamun ubun nana liru Kutelle. Anin belle nani tana na Shawulu wa yene Cikilare libau tutung Cikilare wa liru ninghe, tutung tana na Shawulu wasu uwa'zi lissan Yesu sa fiu in Damaskus.
But Barnabas took him in tow and brought him to the apostles, and described to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that He had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken fearlessly in the name of the Lord Jesus.
28 Awa zuru nanghinu kube na iwa din piccu nin niccu nanyan Urushalima. Alira sa fiu nanya lissan Cikilari Yesu.
So he was with them in Jerusalem, going in and out, and speaking fearlessly in the name of Jesus.
29 Tutung asuzu mayardang nin na Yahudawan Girisiya; ama iwa dinga ubingan molughe.
He kept on speaking and debating with the Hellenists, so they started trying to kill him.
30 Na linuanan yinno nin nilemone, ida ninghe u Siseriya inin toghe udun Tarsus.
Upon finding it out, the brothers brought him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus.
31 Tutung, nilarin lira vat nanya Urdun, Ugalili, nin Samariya se lissosin liman tutung iwa kunjo; tutung ucin nanyan fiun Cikilari nin nanya mang Ruhu ulau, kilarin lire kunjo nin nanit.
So then the congregations throughout all Judea and Galilee, and Samaria, had peace and were built up; and proceeding in the fear of the Lord and in the enabling of the Holy Spirit they were being multiplied.
32 Nene imoimon wa yita, na Bitrus wa galu vat nitinit, ada tolo kiti nanan bi ale na iwa di kagbirin Leyida.
Now it happened, as Peter went through all those parts, that he also went down to the saints who were living in Lydda.
33 Kikane awase umong unit ku lissame Aines, urika na awa li akus kulir kitenen komime, bara awadi nin konun ku kidowo.
And there he found a certain man named Aeneas who was paralyzed—he had been lying on a pallet for eight years.
34 Bitrus woroghe, “Aines, Yesu Kristin shino nin fi. Fita ukyele ukomife.” Atunna afita ayissina.
Peter said to him: “Aeneas, Jesus the Messiah is healing you. Get up and make your bed!” And immediately he stood up!
35 Bara nani, vat nalenge na iwa sossin in Leyida nin Sharon yene unite ikpilla atimine kitin Cikilari.
All who were living in Lydda and Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.
36 Nene in kan gono katwa waduku n nanyan Joppa lissame Tabitha, urika na ukpiluwe di “Dokas.” Ule uwane wa kulung nin katwa kacine anin katwan kunekune ka na adin su anan likimon.
Now there was a certain disciple in Joppa named Tabitha, which is translated Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and charitable deeds that she kept doing.
37 Nanya nayiri ane, ukonu kwaghe anin ku; na ikussughe, inin nokoghe kuti kitene.
But it happened in those days that she took sick and died; so when they had washed her they placed her in the upper room.
38 Uleyida wadi kupon Joppa, tutung nono katwawe wa lanza Bitrus di kikane, ito anit aba kitime, ipotoghe acara, “Dacari kiti bite sa umolu kubi.”
Now Lydda was near Joppa; the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent to him imploring him not to delay in coming to them.
39 Fita adofino nani. Na ada duru, idoninghe kutii kitene. Tutung vat nawani ale na alesmine nakuzu yissina kupo me kuculu, inin dindursuzughe altuk nin nazeni alenge na Dokas wa tuju nani kubi na awadi nanghinu.
So Peter got up and went with them; upon arriving they took him up to the upper room; all the widows stood around him weeping and showing the coats and garments that Dorcas was making while she was with them.
40 Bitrus nutuno nani vat nanya kutiiye, atumo atanlira; anin gitirno ayene kidowe, abelle “Tabita, fita.” Apuno iyizi me, na ayene Bitrus ku, afita aso.
So Peter put them all out, kneeled down and prayed. Turning to the body he said, “Tabitha, get up!” So she opened her eyes, and upon seeing Peter she sat up.
41 Bitrus nin nakpaghe ucarame afeghe; na ayicilla ananbiye nin nawani alenge na ales mine na kuzu, ananani ame nin laime kiti mine.
Then he gave her a hand and lifted her up, and calling the saints and widows he presented her alive.
42 Kogha tunna nin yiru nile imone vat nanya Joppa, gbardang nanit tutung yinna nin Cikilare.
And it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed on the Lord.
43 Bitrus tunna ata ayiri nin mong unit, lissame Simon, ku Tanna.
So it was that he stayed many days in Joppa with a certain Simon, a tanner.
