Katwa Nono Katwa 1
1 Kutankardan nburne kurka nan wan jertin fimu, Theophilus, inbellen katuawa karka na Yesu wa su akuru a dursuzo,
THE former treatise, Theophilus, I composed, concerning all things which Jesus began both to do and to teach,
2 har kubi ko na iwa yirgye udumu kitene kane. Ulele wa di bayan urka na nono kaduro me nsere timap tirka na iba durtu na cara Ufunu Ulau nono kadura karka na fere.
until that day, when having given a charge to his apostles through the Holy Ghost, whom he had chosen, he was taken up:
3 Arka na awa durso litime nin lai bayaqn nipama iniu me. Ata ayiri akut anas ndursuzuani me, tutung incin nbeliani nbelen kilari tigo Kutelle.
to whom also he had shewed himself alive, after he had suffered, by many infallible proofs, during forty days being frequently seen by them, and speaking of the things which relate to the kingdom of God:
4 Kubi kona awa ligowe nanghinu, anin woro nanin “na wa cin nanya Urshalime ba. Bar nanin son ca, na alkawali Imba ulena ana su minu mu na mani Ufunu Ulau kutelle nama su, na ina malin lanzu kitiningya.
and assembling them together, commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, said he, ye have heard from me.
5 Yohanna wa su ubaptizima nin mmen, nin kidun ninnayiru baat Kutelle ma suminu ubastizima nin Funu ulau.”
For John indeed baptised with water; but ye shall be baptised with the Holy Ghost not many days after the present.
6 Kubi ko na iwa zuro kiti kirum, i tiringye, ''Cikilari, kome kubiari uba kurtunu Kilari Ugo Kutenlle?''
They then accordingly assembling together, asked him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time reestablish the kingdom of Israel?
7 A woroani, ''na ummunere iyini kubi nin kubiri kurka na Ucif kele bari likarame.
But he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times and the seasons, which the Father hath reserved under his own authority.
But ye shall receive power, when the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses for me, both in Jerusalem, and throughout all Judea, and Samaria, and unto the extremity of the earth.
9 Daana abenle uliru une, amini wa fita cindu kitene kane, awut kitene kane wantina nanin iyenju Yesu ku, udu wulu nizi mine.
And as he was speaking these things, while they were looking upon him, he was taken up; and a cloud enveloping him hid him from their eyes.
10 Dana anan nono katua wa din yenju udume kitene kane. Nya kube Among anit awa ba tin yisina kupopo mine nin na littuk aboo. Iwadi anan kadura Kutelleari.
And as they looked up earnestly into the heaven, while he was passing, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Umong worum nin woro, “Anuyge anan Galili bar yangyari indin yenju kitene kane na iwa isin idin yenju kitene kane ba! Nlon liri Yesu ulele ulena Kutelle yira gye ama dak ule uye tutun. Abakpilu nannya ulele na iyenegye adin cinu udu kitene kane.”
who also said to them, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up to heaven? this Jesus, who hath been taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, in the same manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
12 Da na nono kadura Kutenlle kpila, nonon bazu inliru kutenlle kpinlla u-Urshalima unzu Kupara Olives urka na uwa susut un-Urshalimae.
Then they returned unto Jerusalem, from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, about a sabbath-day’s journey distant.
13 Da na isa, ighana ipira kuti kitene, kika iwa sosinku. Isan nnono kadure tone: Bitrus, Yohanna, Yakub, Andarawus, Filibos, Toma, Batamawus, Matta, Yakub usaun Haffa, Simon ku-zelot, and Yahuda usaun Yakub.
And when they had arrived, they went up to an upper room, where abode Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James son of Alpheus, and Simon the zealous, and Jude brother to James.
14 Vat mine wa muna ati nafo warum inlira mu cancom. Nannya mine awani wa duku, Marayamu unan Isa nan nuane.
These all persevered unanimously in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
15 Nan nayirane Bulus nin fita nan nuana me anan yinnu sauye. Kubi kind anan dortu Yesu wadi anit likalt nin Na kuta bah kitene. Amino wa woro,
And in those days arose Peter in the midst of the disciples, and said, (there was a number of persons together, about an hundred and twenty, )
16 “Linuana nin ton tipinpin wadi kitenen Yahuda tona ugo Dauda wa yerti, uworsu. To ti pipingye Na dak kidegenghe, barna Ufunu Ulauwe Na belin Dauda ku a yertin.
Men and brethren, it must needs be that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost delivered before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was the conductor of those who seized on Jesus.
17 Aworo nanin awadi gono kata Kutelle nafo arik, amino durso anan ni vira Yesu inanin wakifo imologhe.”
For he was reckoned of our number, and had obtained an appointment to this ministry.
18 Nene unit une nase ukubu kitenen su ni vira ine Nin Nile ikube awa seru kunen. Amino wa diu kutin kika ne liburi me tutoo tijiye gonna ti nuzu udas timalakiti.
This man indeed accordingly purchased a spot of ground with the wages of iniquity; and projected forward, he burst in the midst, and all his bowels fell out.
19 Vat anit na idin nanya Urshalima lanza yeri segye, inanin na yicila lisa kitene imin mmi nin tilem na aramik bar kitenere umon na kukuo.
And it was a fact known to all who dwelt at Jerusalem; so that this field is called in their own dialect, Aceldama, that is, The field of blood.
20 Ame Bitrus nin kuro woro, “In na yene ilemon na ina se Yahudaku idi nafo na Maizaburana belin ari, “na kilarime ku vat, na iwa cin umon kilari meba.”' iminin yene tuo tipipinnye na Dauda na nyertin tidi kitene Yahudere: 'Na umon yiru kutet me.'”
For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let there be no man to dwell in it: and his office, as bishop, let another take.
21 Bara nanin ukamata ti fere ulena ama yiru kitu me (kutet Yahuda) ukamata unite di nan arik kubi kon Cikilari bite Yesu wa fere nari.
Wherefore from among the men who have associated with us always during the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
22 Indian with tun kubi kana ame Yohana wa ti Yesu ku ubaptisema had udak kubi kana iwa hirigye Yesu ku kitene Kane. Unit ulena tima feru the AMA yitu ulena Ana yene Yesu ku kin nzime ayita nin lai nin kidun kulme.
beginning from his baptism by John, until the day in which he was taken up from us, must there be chosen with us a witness of his resurrection, even one of these.
23 Barà nanin nono katua me nin gonna nin tisa anit a tiba. Umon lisame wadi Yusuf Barsabas, ulena Lisa me wadi tutun Justus. Unan ba wadi Matthias.
So they appointed two persons, Joseph called Barsabas, whose sirname was Justus, and Matthias.
24 Itaa nlira iworo, “Fe Cikilari, yiru nibinei nanit vat, durso nari nanya nawaba alele na ufere
And joining in prayer, they said, Do thou, O Lord, who knowest the hearts of all men, point out the one of these two which thou hast chosen,
25 ayiru kiti nanyan nkaa katawe na Yahuda nacin ana ti kulapi amini naduo kika na kiduogye.”
to take a part in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, to go to his own place.
26 Inanin wa su mafeferu, Mathias leu ma feruferu amini wasuo urum nanya nanan kata Yesua.
And they drew lots for them and the lot fell to Matthias and he was by unanimous suffrage numbered with the eleven apostles.
