Ndu Manzaniba 3
1 Niki Bitrus mba yohanna basiya hon ni hi ni tra Rji ninton wu bre, mton wu tiya.
Peter and John were on their way up to the Temple at the time of the afternoon prayer, around 3 p.m.
2 Ba zontu ni ndhi ri, wa a chon kple rhini nine yimma, ba banu bibanmu ye zi ni kikle nkontra hekali wa ba yondi, “wu bi”. Ba ta kau zi niki chachu ni du ta bre biwa ba si rinimi hekalia.
A man who had been lame from birth was being carried there. Every day he was placed beside the Temple gate called “Beautiful” so he could beg from the people going into the Temple.
3 Niwa a to Bitrus mba Yohana Basia rini hi nimi hekalia a bre ba du ba nuu kpe.
He saw Peter and John as they were about to enter the Temple and asked them for some money.
4 Bitrus a yo shishi nda gba a me mba Yohana niki, nda tre ndi, “ya ta”.
Peter looked right at him. John did, too. “Look at us!” Peter said.
5 Ndi wa chon kple'a nzu shishi nda yaba ni yo suron da ni kpakpe ni womba.
The lame man gave them his full attention, expecting to get something from them.
6 Ama Bitrus tre ndi “mina he ni silva mba Zinariya na, ikpe wa mihe niwu, mi nu. Ni nde Yesu Kristi wu Nazarat, lu zren”
“I don't have any silver or gold,” Peter told him, “but I'll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk!”
7 Bitrus a tiwo vu u ni woma wu ko rhi da nzu u lunde, mle iza mba toza ma ba sen ququ.
Peter took him by the right hand and helped him up. Right away his feet and ankles became strong.
8 Gurugu mba a duo lunde kri nda ni zren; nda rhi hu ba Bitrus mba Yohana hinimi haikalia, ni zren da za ndani yose wu gbre Irjhi san
He jumped to his feet, and then began to walk. He went with them into the Temple, walking and jumping and praising God.
9 Ndhi ba wawumbawu ba too si zren ndani yose u gbre Rji san.
Everyone there saw him walking around and praising God.
10 Ba ya nda to ahi gu wa atason ndani bre nkle ni kikle nkontra haikali wa ba yondi nkontra wu bi a sisiri ni mre a shubawu ni suron nitu kpe wa ba to ni igu'a.
They recognized him as the beggar who used to sit by the Temple's Beautiful Gate, and they were surprised and amazed at what had happened to him.
11 Niwa a si hu za Bitrus mba Yohana, ndhi ba ba tsutsu hi riba ni nkalhang nyunko wa ba yo hihiwu Sulemanu a ndani bwu nyu yo ni wuo nitu kikle kpe wa a he nitu ma'a.
He held on tightly to Peter and John while everyone ran to them by Solomon's Porch in complete astonishment at what had happened.
12 Niwa Bitrus a to toki, a sa ni ndhi ba ndi. “Biyi Ndi lilon bi Israila, a ngye du yi ni bwunyu ni yo ni wuho? Nitu nagye bi sru shishi nita, rhuto kitaayi ki du gua lu zren ni gbengblen mbu koka ni gbugblu mbu
When Peter saw this opportunity he told them, “People of Israel, why are you surprised at what's happened to this man? Why are you staring at us as if it was by our own power or faith that we made him walk?
13 Irjhi wu Ibrahim, mba wu Ishaku, ni wu Yakubu, Irjhi wu ba timbu, wawuyi a gbre veren ma Yesu san. Wa wuyi bina vuu lo di kaambi ni wu ni shishi Pilate, wa a ta son shu chuwo'a.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—the God of our forefathers—has glorified his servant Jesus. He was the one you betrayed and rejected in the presence of Pilate, even after Pilate had decided to release him.
14 Bi kanmbi ni Tsatra mba wa a hamma ni atre, ni mye du ba chundhi wa a wuu ndi mu chuwo niyiwu.
You rejected the one who is holy and good, and demanded a murderer be released to you.
15 Bi wuu wa ivri rhurhi niwu, wandi jrjhi a nzu lunde baya qu-e kita ki bi wa kito ni shishimbu.
You killed the author of life, the one God raised from the dead—and we are witnesses to this.
16 Nitu kpanyme ni suron riri ni ndema; ndema a du guyi, wa bisi ya ni to ou, a lu kri ni gbengblen ma. kpanyme ma ni Yesu a nu si kpa ni shishi mbi wawu.
By trusting in Jesus' name this man was healed by him. You see this man here; you know him. Through trusting in Jesus this man has received complete healing right in front of all of you.
17 Zizan, mir vayi mi to ndi, bi na tona biyi baba bininko mbi, ekpe wa bi tio.
Now I know, brothers and sisters, that you did this in ignorance, like your rulers.
18 Ama kpe wa Irjhi ana lhazi ni nyu anabawama, ndi kristi ni ti ya, kima a ye ku tou ki.
But God fulfilled what he had prophesied through all the prophets: that his Messiah would suffer.
19 Kima gon nu latre di du ba wru latre mbe hlega.
Now repent, and change your ways, that your sins can be wiped away, so the Lord can send opportunities for you to heal and recover,
20 Niton wa bi he tare ni Baci wa a ni ton kristi wa a mla yo ni yiwu Yesu.
and send Jesus, the Messiah appointed for you.
21 Wa wuyi shulu ni kpa har hi ni nton wa kpi ba k'ma ye ti ndidi Irjhi a tre nisen, ni nyu tsatra anabawa ma'a. (aiōn g165)
For he must stay in heaven until the time when everything is restored, as God announced through his holy prophets long ago. (aiōn g165)
22 Musa a hla ndi. “Baci Irjhi ni nzu anabi grji kama too me nimi mir vayimbi. Bi woowu ni kpi wa ani tre yiwu nitu mba.
Moses said, ‘The Lord God will send you a prophet from among your own people who is like me. You must listen to everything he tells you.
23 Andi ko nah wa a kama bubu wotre anabi kima, ba gbron ba lhe penpenme ni mi mbru ndhi
Anybody who doesn't listen to him will be totally removed from the people.’
24 A toki, anabawa ba wawu rhi ni samuila nibi ye ni kogonba, ba tre nda d'bu lha vi biyi.
All the prophets who have spoken, from Samuel on, prophesied about these days.
25 Bi mi anabawa mba ni shirjhi wa Irjhi a tiniba bacimbi, niwa a lha ni Ibrahim ndi, “Ni zuriya me nnedhi ni gbungblu wawu ba kpa lulu.”
You are the sons of the prophets, and of the agreement which God made with your fathers when he said to Abraham, ‘From your descendants all the families of the earth will be blessed.’
26 Ni wa Irjhi a nzu ndi wunduma a tonye niyi guci, nitu du yo lulu niyiwu, ni du konhambi k'ma gon nu meme drimbi.
God prepared his Servant and sent him to you first, to bless you by turning every one of you from your evil ways.”
