1 Niwa ivi pentacos a ye, bana ki ni bubu riri wawumbawu.
And when the day of Pentecost was now accomplishing, they were all together in one place.
2 Mle, kikle gyungyu ri, rhi ni shulu, a lu fu grji ye ka ko wa bana ki nima'a.
And there came suddenly a sound out of heaven as of a violent impetuous blowing, and filled all the house where they were sitting.
3 Elem to ilu kri ku gason nitu mba ni yiyri.
And there appeared to them parted tongues, as of fire, and it sat upon each one of them.
4 Ruhu Tsatsra a ri shu ku ni ko aha mba, e ba lu kri ku tre ni leme kankan, wa ruhu a tsro ba.
And they were all filled with [the] Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues as the Spirit gave to them to speak forth.
5 Ni kima, Yahudawa bi hu nkon Irjhi, rhi ni gbu gbungblu kankan ni meme, bana he ni Urishilima.
Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, pious men, from every nation of those under heaven.
6 Niwa baa wo langyungyua, akpa ba rhikice u ba ye bubu riri ikpea a kpa ba tsi shishi, nitu ko nha asi wo ba ni lan tre gbumma
But the rumour of this having spread, the multitude came together and were confounded, because each one heard them speaking in his own dialect.
7 Kpe a k'ma nuba sisiri ni mre; i ba tre ndi, “E biyi wawumba, bi si trea, bana ndhi bi Galilee na?
And all were amazed and wondered, saying, Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans?
8 A ngye ti du ta niwo ba ni lan tre gbunbu, lan wa ba grjita niwa a?
and how do we hear [them] each in our own dialect in which we have been born,
9 Parthians mba medes mba Elamites mba biwa ba ki ni mesopotamia, ni Judea mba Cappodia, wu Pontus mba Asia.
Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, and Judaea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
10 Phrygia mba Pamphylia, ni Egypt mba mbru bubu bi Libya hi ni Cyrene, mba Bitsri wa ba rhi ni Rome.
both Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya which adjoin Cyrene, and the Romans sojourning [here], both Jews and proselytes,
11 Yahudawa baba biwa ba kpa hu irjhi wu Yaudawa ba, Cretans baba larabawa, ki wo ba si tre ni lan mbu nitu kikle ndu Irjhi.
Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking in our own tongues the great things of God?
12 A nuba rhimre ni sisiri i ba tre ni kpa mba ndi, “A hi ngye to yi?”
And they were all amazed and in perplexity, saying one to another, What would this mean?
13 Bari banza ba nda tre ndi, “Basi huwa hi sa.”
But others mocking said, They are full of new wine.
14 E bitrus a lu kri nimi wlon donri mba, nda nzu lan nda tre gbangban me niba ndi, ndhi lilon be gbu Judea, baba ndhi wawu'u biwa, bi ki ni Urishilima, sren to ni lan tre mu nidu yi mlaa toh.
But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke forth to them, Men of Judaea, and all ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give heed to my words:
15 Ndhi biyi bana si hwu na wa bi ban na, zizan ni ton wu tra wu hwumble genri.
for these are not full of wine, as ye suppose, for it is the third hour of the day;
16 Kpe yi a tsra ni tre anabi Joel;
but this is that which was spoken through the prophet Joel,
17 Ani he vi bi kle kle, Irjhi a tre, “Mi vra ruhumu nitu rima ndhi wawu. Mri mbi lilon baba mrimba ba rira ikpi bi ye ni ko shishi mri nzembi ba to ko waayi e bi chiche mbi hra ra nitu ra.
And it shall be in the last days, saith God, [that] I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your elders shall dream with dreams;
18 Jaji bi ndu mu, lilon baba mba, mi buwa ba ni ruhu mu u ba nra kpi biye ni ko shishi.
yea, even upon my bondmen and upon my bondwomen in those days will I pour out of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.
19 Mi tsro kikle ndu mu ni shu shulu, mba ni alamu mu ni meme (gbugblu), iyi ilu mba ntse Ikpan irjhi ni k'ma ti bwu,
And I will give wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
20 Kpan iwha ni k'ma ti iyi, ri du kikle vi wu Baci ni ye, vi wa ko nha ni to nda rhimre nitu ma.
the sun shall be changed to darkness and the moon to blood, before the great and gloriously appearing day of [the] Lord come.
21 Ani to ki, ndhi wa a yo nde Bacia ani nawo
And it shall be that whosoever shall call upon the name of [the] Lord shall be saved.
22 Ndhi bi Israila, wo lan tre biyi, Yeshu wu Nazarat ana ndhi wa Irjhi a nzu hon ni shishi mbi, ni kikle ndu ni kpi bi du ndhi bwunyu yo hyo ni wuo Irjhi ati ni woma ni mimbi, me wa biyi me bito.
Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazaraean, a man borne witness to by God to you by works of power and wonders and signs, which God wrought by him in your midst, as yourselves know
23 Ndi yi wa ba vuu nu tsra ni kpe wa Irjhi ana mla zi nda to; ni wo meme; ndhi wa bana zren ni tu nkon na ba wuu ni kpan u ni kunkro (kros).
— him, given up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye, by [the] hand of lawless [men], have crucified and slain.
24 Ama Irjhi a nzu lu, nda chuchuwo ni ya wu qu, nitu iqu na he ni gbengble wu vu u nji na
Whom God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death, inasmuch as it was not possible that he should be held by its power;
25 Ni kima Dawuda a tre ni tuma ndi “me to Baci chachu ni shishi mu; ngye a he ni kosan worhimu di du mina c'bi rhuna.
for David says as to him, I foresaw the Lord continually before me, because he is at my right hand that I may not be moved.
26 Nitu ki, mi ngri ni suron mu e line mu a takpe. N'makpa mu ngame ni son ni yo suron.
Therefore has my heart rejoiced and my tongue exulted; yea more, my flesh also shall dwell in hope,
for thou wilt not leave my soul in hades, nor wilt thou give thy gracious one to see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
28 Wu bwu nkon wu rai ni mu du mi mla to, wu du me ngri kpukpo me ni shishi me
Thou hast made known to me [the] paths of life, thou wilt fill me with joy with thy countenance.
29 Mri vayi, ani bi numu dumi tre ni yi ni suron wu kpanyme, (hamma ni sisiri), nitu chiche baci. Dawuda, ndi a qu e ba rhuwu, e ibe ma he ni ta ya ni vi wu luwa.
Brethren, let it be allowed to speak with freedom to you concerning the patriarch David, that he has both died and been buried, and his monument is amongst us unto this day.
30 Nitu kima ana anabi wa a toh ndi Irjhi a shirhi ni ban niwu ndi eh'pu wu nchinema ni hon son nitu tuchuma.
Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath, of the fruit of his loins to set upon his throne;
31 A to kpe wa ani ye he ni shishia ndda tre ni tu lu tashme Kristi, ndi bana kawdon ni ko qu na; e n'mama na gla na. (Hadēs g86)
he, seeing [it] before, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that neither has he been left in hades nor his flesh seen corruption. (Hadēs g86)
32 Yesu yiwa Irjhi a nzu lunde, e kita wawumbu, ki bla ikpe wa kito di wo nitu ma'a.
This Jesus has God raised up, whereof all we are witnesses.
33 Nitu ki, niwa ba nzu hon hi wo ko rhi wu Irjhi, nda kpa Ruhu Tsatsra wa titi baci a shirhi niwu, a vu vra grhi, ikpi wa bisi to nini wo'a.
Having therefore been exalted by the right hand of God, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this which ye behold and hear.
34 Dawuda ana hon hi ni shuluna, ama nda tre ndi “Baci a lha ni Bacimu,” ku son ni wo rhimu.
For David has not ascended into the heavens, but he says himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit at my right hand
35 Di gben dumi k'ma bi kamba (yo shishi) niwu ti ruron wu sa za me.”
until I have put thine enemies [to be] the footstool of thy feet.
36 Niki ma, du ko Israila wawu mla toh ndi janji, Irjhi du he Baci mba Kristi, Yesu yi wa bi Kpanwu nitu kros'a.
Let the whole house of Israel therefore know assuredly that God has made him, this Jesus whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
37 Niwa ba wo tre yi a yra ba suron, e ba lha ni Bitrus baba mbru manzani ba, ndi “Mri vayi, ki ti nihe?”
And having heard [it] they were pricked in heart, and said to Peter and the other apostles, What shall we do, brethren?
38 Bitrus lha bawu di k'ma gon nu latre, ni kpa baptisma, ko nha bi ni nde Yesu kristi, ni wru latre bi ni Irjhi hlega, ndi kpa Ruhu Tsatsra wa ani nu hamma ni du ui han kpe.
And Peter said to them, Repent, and be baptised, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, for remission of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 Shirhi'a ahi wumbi, baba mrimbi, niwa ba he gbagban me ngame; wawundhi wa Baci Irjhi mbu ni yo ba'a”
For to you is the promise and to your children, and to all who [are] afar off, as many as [the] Lord our God may call.
40 Ni lan tre gbugbuwu, a tre ni tu kima'a nda nrooba ndi.” Nhawo rhu ni k'ba bi kawatre yi.
And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, Be saved from this perverse generation.
41 Mle ba kpa tre ma e ba ti baptisma ni bawu, ndhi dubu tra ka ru nha ni ba.
Those then who had accepted his word were baptised; and there were added in that day about three thousand souls.
42 Ba ye suron mba ni bubu riri ni kpa Isro manzani mba zumunta, nda ni ga bredi wu jibi, mba bre Irjhi.
And they persevered in the teaching and fellowship of the apostles, in breaking of bread and prayers.
43 Sisiri a vu ko nha e anabawa'a ba ti ndu gbugbu baba ekpi bi tsro (sisir) ya.
And fear was upon every soul, and many wonders and signs took place through the apostles' means.
44 Biwa ba kpanyme ba ki ni bubu rii nda ti ko ngye to u ndi riri, hamma ni chuti nkan,
And all that believed were together, and had all things common,
45 Ba vu ba kpimba le nda ga ni ko nba nmba tsra ni kpe wa ko nha ni son.
and sold their possessions and substance, and distributed them to all, according as any one might have need.
46 Nivi hi nivi, ba yo tu mba ni suron riri ni ko Irjhi,
And every day, being constantly in the temple with one accord, and breaking bread in [the] house, they received their food with gladness and simplicity of heart,
47 Ba ga bredi niko rikomba, nda ga birhi ni nroo kpamba hamma ni nzutu, ndani gbre nde Irjhi ndi ba ba kpanyme ni ba e chachu, Baci a si gbron ndhi wa basi nhawo ni ye niba nda du gbrumba a si hon
praising God, and having favour with all the people; and the Lord added [to the assembly] daily those that were to be saved.
