"Men and brothers, I can speak plainly to you concerning the patriarch David, because he not only died and was buried, but his tomb is among us even to this very day.

When they heard these words they were stung to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles. "Men and brothers, what shall we do?"
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.
"Repent," answered Peter, "and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

"For the promise belongs to you and to your children and to all who are afar off, whomever the Lord may call."

With many other words he continued to bear testimony, and kept entreating them, saying, "Save yourselves from this perverse generation."
41 Mle ba kpa tre ma e ba ti baptisma ni bawu, ndhi dubu tra ka ru nha ni ba.

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 stedfastly continued in the teaching of the apostles, and in the fellowship, in the breaking of the bread, and in the prayers.
43 Sisiri a vu ko nha e anabawa'a ba ti ndu gbugbu baba ekpi bi tsro (sisir) ya.
And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were wrought by the apostles.
44 Biwa ba kpanyme ba ki ni bubu rii nda ti ko ngye to u ndi riri, hamma ni chuti nkan,
And all the believers were together, and had all things in common.

They would sell their lands and other property, and distribute the proceeds among all, just as any one from time had need.
46 Nivi hi nivi, ba yo tu mba ni suron riri ni ko Irjhi,
Day after day they continued stedfastly with one accord in the Temple; and breaking bread together in their own homes, they continued to eat their food with gladness and an undivided 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
