Ndu Manzaniba 4
1 Niwa ba Bitrus mba Yohana ba kia tre ni ndhi ba, ba prist ni kaptin bi yatsro ni haikalia ni ba saducis ba wru sru niha.
And as they are speaking unto the people, there came to them the priests, and the magistrate of the temple, and the Sadducees —
2 Sisiri ni nfu a vu ba nitu tsro wa ba Bitrus mba Yohana baa kia dibu ni bla nitu Yesu ni lundema rhi ni que.
being grieved because of their teaching the people, and preaching in Jesus the rising again out of the dead —
3 Ba vu ba nda njiba ka tro zi nrable ka tu yalu a tiye.
and they laid hands upon them, and did put them in custody unto the morrow, for it was evening already;
4 Ndhi gbugbuwu nimi biwa bawo tu tre, ba kpanyme, ndhi lilon wa ba kpatre chachu ki bana mla dubu ton.
and many of those hearing the word did believe, and the number of the men became, as it were, five thousand.
5 Ni ble ma, bi ninkon wu gbu baba datibe ni kikle bi nha ba yo kpambe nde ye kuson ni Urishilima.
And it came to pass upon the morrow, there were gathered together of them the rulers, and elders, and scribes, to Jerusalem,
6 Annas nkon prist wawu a he niki, mba Caiaphas u Yohana ni Alexandar niba mla nikon prist'a.
and Annas the chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the chief priest,
7 Ba yo Bitrus mba Yohana ye zini tsutsumba nda mye ba ndi, “Ni gbengble koka ni nde nhamba bi ti kpeyi?”
and having set them in the midst, they were inquiring, 'In what power, or in what name did ye do this?'
8 Peter a lu kri, shuni Ruhu tsatsra nda tre ni ndi ba. “Biyi bininko ya gbu baba datibe,
Then Peter, having been filled with the Holy Spirit, said unto them: 'Rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
9 idan ki si bla tre ndi ni han tre ni tu kpe ndi ndi wa w ti ni ndhi wu lilo, mba kawa igua tinche ri nda kpa si kpama?
if we to-day are examined concerning the good deed to the ailing man, by whom he hath been saved,
10 Be ka mla to, wawu bi, ni ndi Israila wawu idu yi wa kri ni shishinbe risi kpa a nitu nde Yesu Kristi ba Nazarat, wandi bi gran wu har wowu ama Irjhi a nzu lunde baya wa a qu.
be it known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye did crucify, whom God did raise out of the dead, in him hath this one stood by before you whole.
11 Yesu Kristi wa wuyi a bi tita wa bi kambi ni wu wa k'ma ti tita wu zontu mme'a.
'This is the stone that was set at nought by you — the builders, that became head of a corner;
12 Kpachuwo na la he ni nde ndiori nga nitu nde ri na la he ni gbugdu ko ni shulu wa ba no ndhi ri wandi a ni kpa ndi chuwo'a na.
and there is not salvation in any other, for there is no other name under the heaven that hath been given among men, in which it behoveth us to be saved.'
13 Niwa ba to tre u gbengblem suron Bitrus mba Yohana, mba nda mla to ndi bana bla tsro yi gbagban mu na kpe a nuba mamki, nitu ndi Bitrus mba Yohana ba mirko Yesu.
And beholding the openness of Peter and John, and having perceived that they are men unlettered and plebeian, they were wondering — they were taking knowledge also of them that with Jesus they had been —
14 Nitu ba to igu wa a kpa si kpama a kri ni mimba, bana la he ni kpewa ba tre ba tre ngana.
and seeing the man standing with them who hath been healed, they had nothing to say against [it],
15 Ba zu manzaniba du ba rhu dinko bawu ni meetiy nda k'ma ki tre ni kpamba.
and having commanded them to go away out of the sanhedrim, they took counsel with one another,
16 Ba tre ndi “Khi ti ndi biyi ne he?” ni kikle kpe yi wa ba ti, a kri ndendeme ni ko nha wa ani son ni Urishilima du to, kina kpatron na.
saying, 'What shall we do to these men? because that, indeed, a notable sign hath been done through them, to all those dwelling in Jerusalem [is] manifest, and we are not able to deny [it];
17 Ama don du tre a na hi gbagbanmu du ndhi wo na, ki feba ton ni du bana la tre nda tsro ndhi ni ndeyi ngana.”
but that it may spread no further toward the people, let us strictly threaten them no more to speak in this name to any man.'
18 Mle ba yo ba ri nda mam ba ndu ba na tre ko tsro ndi memlemu ni nde Yesu na.
And having called them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor to teach, in the name of Jesus,
19 U ba Bitrus mba Yohana ba sa bawu ndi, “ka ani bi ni shishi Irjhi du ta hu tre mbi ko ka ko hu wu ma.
and Peter and John answering unto them said, 'Whether it is righteous before God to hearken to you rather than to God, judge ye;
20 biyi kimbi, ga trea. “Kita kina donme ni bla kpe wa ki to ni shishi mbu, ni wo ni ton mbu na.”
for we cannot but speak what we did see and hear.'
21 Niwwa ba mam ba Bitrus mba Yohana, ba chuba chuwo du ba hi kpamba. Ba wa kpewa ba vu ba lo han ma, domin ndhi ba wawu ba sita gbre Rji san nitu kpe, wa a ti'a.
And they having further threatened [them], let them go, finding nothing how they may punish them, because of the people, because all were glorifying God for that which hath been done,
22 Igu wa a kpa si kpama ana zan ise arbain ni ngrhi.
for above forty years of age was the man upon whom had been done this sign of the healing.
23 Niwa ba chuba chuwoa, Bitrus mba Yohana ba hi ndhi mba, nda ka bla kpe wa bi Ninkon prist baba datibe wawu ba lha ba wua.
And being let go, they went unto their own friends, and declared whatever the chief priests and the elders said unto them,
24 Ba wo naki da nzu lan mba nitu kpe riri ni Irjhi nda tre ndi, Baci, wu ti gbungblu shulu mba meme, mba teju ni kpi wa ba he ni mimba.
and they having heard, with one accord did lift up the voice unto God, and said, 'Lord, thou [art] God, who didst make the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all that [are] in them,
25 Wu tre ni Ruhu Tsatsra ni nyu vreko ndu me, timbu Dauda, 'A hi ngye du gbungblu bi ko ra ba gbra nfu u ndhi ba ba rhimre kpi wa bana he nituna?'
who, through the mouth of David thy servant, did say, Why did nations rage, and peoples meditate vain things?
26 Wu tre ndi, “Bi chu wu gbungblu meme ba bitu mba ni buburiri, bi ninkon gbu agame ba zon tu mba nitu Baci, mba nitu kiristi ma
the kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against His Christ;
27 Toki Hiridus mba Bilatus ba zontu baba ndhi bi kora ni ndhi bi Israila ni mi gbuyi, nitu tsatsra wunduma Yesu, wa wu sawo wu ni tuma.
for gathered together of a truth against Thy holy child Jesus, whom Thou didst anoint, were both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with nations and peoples of Israel,
28 Ba zontu ni buburiri ni duba ti kpi wa a wume mba wa wu mla yo zi ndi du ka ye he toki ni shishi.
to do whatever Thy hand and Thy counsel did determine before to come to pass.
29 Zizan, Baci, ya ni meme shirjhi mba ndi zo mirko ndume duba lha lantre me ni gbengble suron.
'And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings, and grant to Thy servants with all freedom to speak Thy word,
30 Nina wo me du no si kpanda tsro kpi wa bana zi he na ni nde tsatsra wundu me Yesu.
in the stretching forth of Thy hand, for healing, and signs, and wonders, to come to pass through the name of Thy holy child Jesus.'
31 Niwa ba kle bre'a bubu wa ba ki wawumbawu a lu grjhu u. Ruhu Tsatsra a ri ni kowani rimba, mle ba lu si tre lan tre Irjhi ni gbengblen suron.
And they having prayed, the place was shaken in which they were gathered together, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and were speaking the word of God with freedom,
32 Ikpa'a ndhi biwa ba kpanyme nda yo suron mba ni dri mba riri. ndio na tre ndi ikpe wa wu he niwu a hi wu ma ni nklemana, ba nji ko ngye ye bubu riri nda tindu niwu toki.
and of the multitude of those who did believe the heart and the soul was one, and not one was saying that anything of the things he had was his own, but all things were to them in common.
33 Ni kikle gbengblen manzaniba ba ki d'bu nda bla ikpiwa ba to nitu tas'me Baci Yesu, ni kikle k'ma sran wu son nitu mba wawu.
And with great power were the apostles giving the testimony to the rising again of the Lord Jesus, great grace also was on them all,
34 Ba ndhi ri nimimba wa a wakpe wandi a ni son'a hama, nitu biwa bana he ni ba Ithu ko ni ba ko ba vuba le nda nji nkle ye sru ni bubu riri,
for there was not any one among them who did lack, for as many as were possessors of fields, or houses, selling [them], were bringing the prices of the thing sold,
35 ni za manzaniba ndi duba ga ni ko nha tsra ni kpe wa ani son'a.
and were laying them at the feet of the apostles, and distribution was being made to each according as any one had need.
36 Yusufu wa manzaniba bata you ndi Barnabas wandi bati k'ma sran ani vren wu igrhi Levi, ndhi wu Cyprus.
And Joses, who was surnamed by the apostles Barnabas — which is, having been interpreted, Son of Comfort — a Levite, of Cyprus by birth,
37 a ban ngbran meme le nda nji nkle ye sa ni za manzaniba.
a field being his, having sold [it], brought the money and laid [it] at the feet of the apostles.
