Ndu Manzaniba 5
1 Ndhiri bayo ndi Ananias mba wama safira ba ban bubumba ri le.
But, a certain man, Ananias by name, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
2 Nda zi mbru nkle wa ba kpa`a (uwama ngame a to), nda nji mbru nkle ka zi ni za manzaniba.
And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it; and, bringing a certain part, at the feet of the Apostles, he laid it.
3 Bitrus a tre ndi, “Ananias wu ti he ni du brij shusron me nda du, u tiche ni Ruhi Tsatsra ni kma mbru nkle bubua'a zi ni tume?
But Peter said—Ananias! wherefore did Satan fill thy heart, that thou shouldst deal falsely with the Holy Spirit, and keep back part of the price of the field?
4 Niwa wuna rhihe u banle'a ana wumena, u niwa wu banle ana rhihe ni wome na? A nha yo kpeyi ni suron me? wuna tiche ni ndhi na, ama ni irjhi”.
While it remained, was it not, as thine own, it remained? and, when sold, was it not, in thine own authority, that it still continued? Why was it that thou didst contrive in thy heart this deed? Thou hast not dealt falsely with men but, with God.
5 Niwo tre`a Ananias a ku rhoku u veri ma ka klekle, u biwa ba wo kpe yi ba ti sisiri kpukopme.
And, as Ananias heard these words, he fell, and expired. And there came great fear upon all that heard;
6 Mri rize ba balu banwu cibi nda lo u nda ba u rhu ka rhu.
But the young men, rising up, wrapped him about, and, bearing him forth, buried him.
7 Niwa nton tra ati, uwama a riye, ana to ka ngye si grensi zren na.
And it came to pass, after about three hours interval, that his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
8 Bitrus a tre niwu ndi, “Hla nitawu bi le ni bubumbi mba nitu kpe to yi?” A tre ndi “Ehh, nitu toki.”
And Peter began to say unto her—Tell me! was it, for so much, ye gave up the field? And she said—Yea! for so much.
9 Mle Bitrus alha niwu ndi, “Ahi ngyeti du yi zontu ni kpambi ndi tsra Ruhu Baci?, ya, za ndhi wa baka rhu lon me ba he ni kontra, ba banwu hi rhu.”
And, Peter, [said] unto her—Why was it agreed by you to put to the proof the Spirit of the Lord? Lo! the feet of them that have buried thy husband, are at the door, and they shall bear thee forth.
10 A kri ku rhoku ni za ma nda gbron vri ma wu kle. Niwa mir nzeba ba ri ye nimi ba to a que nda banwu rhu ka rhu ni kosan bei lonma.
And she fell instantly at his feet, and expired. And the young men, coming in, found her dead; and, bearing her forth, they buried her with her husband.
11 sisir rigra ma a ti eklisiya wawu ni biwa bawo kpi biyi”a.
And there came great fear upon the whole assembly, and upon all them that heard these things.
12 ikpi gbugbuwu wa bana taba to ni son ba na ni chu tro nkankan ba kiya faru ni cikin ndi tawuri mazani ba. Ba ki wawumba ni trankon solomon.
And, through the hands of the Apostles, were coming to pass many signs and wonders among the people; and they were all with one accord in the portico of Solomon;
13 Mbru ndhi ba bana hini gbengble suron u huba hikina ama ndhiba ba to ba ni nfutu.
Howbeit, of the rest, no one, durst join himself unto them, —nevertheless the people continued to magnify them;
14 Nikima, ndhi ba ta ye nda ni kpa Bau; ndi lilon baba mba gbugbuwu.
And, the more, were being added, when they believed in the Lord, throngs both of men and women; —
15 Nda duba vu bi lilo thuka zi nitu nkon tu bubu kru ko ni bla krumba, ndi i dan Bitrus si zren zu, iwhi ma ni ku nitu bari mba.
So that, even into the broad-ways, were they bringing forth the sick, and laying them on small couches and beds, in order that, if Peter were coming along, even perchance his shadow, might overshadow some one of them.
16 Kpandhi ngame ba ye rhi ni gbu biwa ba ne we were ni urishilima, ni bi lilo baba biwa meme brjhi loba, ba kpa si kpa mba
Moreover even the throng of the cities all round Jerusalem was coming together, bearing sick folk, and such as were harassed by impure spirits, —who, indeed, were being cured, one and all.
17 Nikima, niko firist alu kri, ni wawu biwa ba heniwu'a (biwa ba he ni derika sadukiawa); ba shuni ngu,
But the High-priest, arising, and all who were with him, —being the sect of the Sadducees, —were filled with jealousy,
18 nda yo wo vu manzani ba ka tro ni buba tro. “
And thrust their hands upon the Apostles, and put them in a public ward.
19 Nikimame, niwa chu ati malaika u Baci a bwunko wu bubu tro'a nda njiba rhu ra, nda tha bawu ndi
But, a messenger of the Lord, by night, opened the doors of the prison; and, leading them out, said—
20 “Hi, kri nimi Haikali ni tre ndi ndhiba wawu nitu lantre wu nu vriji”.
Be going your way, and, taking your stand, be speaking, in the temple, unto the people, all the declarations of this Life.
21 Niwa ba wo tre yi a, ba ri hi ni haikalia tsra ni bwunble nda tsroba. I a ninkon firt a ye baba biwa baheni wu'a nda yo son shubi bi ninkon gbu baba datibai ndhi bi Israila wawumba, nda tonba hi ni ko tre duba hi nii manzani ba ye.
Now, when they heard this, they entered, under the dawn, into the temple, and began teaching. And the High-priest and they who were with him, arriving, called together the high-council, and all the senate of the sons of Israel; and sent off unto the prison, to have them brought.
22 Ofisa wa ba tonbarba hi ka waba hamani ko tro'a nda kima ye lha bawu.
And, the officers who came to the place, found them not in the prison; and, returning, brought tidings,
23 “Kika to nkotraba baki ni tro vrenme, ni bi ki gben ba ni kontra. Ama niwa ki bwu ni ri, kina to ndior nimi na.
Saying—The prison, found we locked with all safety, and the keepers standing at the doors; but, when we had opened the prison, inside, found we, no one.
24 Ni wo tre yi, captin wu haikalia mba ninko first wawu, ba ku sisiri nitu mba, don kpe wa ni wu gon ma.
Now, when both the captain of the temple and the High-priests heard these words, they were utterly at a loss concerning them—what perhaps this might come to.
25 Mle ndhiri a ye nda ye lha bawu ndi, “Ndhi wa bi vu sru ni ko tro ba kri si tero ndhi ni mi haikali.”
But some one, entering, brought tidings unto them—Lo! the men whom ye put in the prison, are in the temple, standing, and teaching the people!
26 Kaptin babamir binduma ba wru hi nda ka vu ba ye, hama ni gbiba ni gbeneblen, nitu ba ti sisiri ko ndhi ba ta ba ni tita.
Then, the captain with the officers, departing, brought them—not with violence, —for they were afraid of the people, lest they should be stoned;
27 Niwa ba njiba ye'a ba zi ba shishi bi ninkon'a,
But, leading them in, set them in the high- council. And the High-priest questioned them,
28 Nikon first a tsra ba ni mye ndi, “we mha yi ndife yi ton du yi na tsro ni nde yi na, ama bi ka gbu urishilima ni tsro mbi ndi nison nji yi guyi ye sa nitumbu.”
Saying—Strictly, did we charge you not to be teaching upon this name; and lo! ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and are minded to bring down upon us, the blood of this man.
29 Bitrus baba manzaniba ba sa ndi, kita ki hu tre irjhi zan tre ndhi.
But Peter and the Apostles, answering, said—It is needful to be yielding obedience unto God rather than unto men: —
30 Irjhi ba timbu a nzu Yesu hi, wandi bi klo wuu ni kunkro.
The God of our fathers, hath raised up Jesus, —whom, ye, got into your hands, suspending him upon a tree: —
31 Irjhi a nzu u hon hi ni woko ko rhima na uren u tuchu mba wu kpachuwo, don du buw kon tuba ni mir Israila, nda wru latre mba lhe.
Him, as Princely-leader and Saviour, hath God exalted unto his right hand, —to give repentance unto Israel, and remission of sins.
32 kita ki biwa ki to kpibiyi, ni ruhu tsatsra ngame, wandi Irjhi a nu bi wa ba hu tre ma'a.
And, we, are witnesses of these things, —also the Holy Spirit, which God hath given unto them who are yielding obedience unto him.
33 Niwa, bi ninko wa ba son'a da trea nfu a toba, u bata son wuu manzani ba.
And, they, when they heard this, were cut to the heart, and were making up their minds to slay them.
34 Ama igu pharisawa ri wu nde ma hi Gamalial ndhi wu tsro doka, wandi ndhi wawu ba kpanyme ni wu'a, a lu kri ni minba nda ti gbuchu du manzani ba rhu dinko ni bawu wu ton fime ri.
But a certain man, rising up in the high-council, by name Gamaliel, a law-teacher honoured by all the people, gave orders to put the men, outside, for a little, —
35 Wa alu kri lha ni son ndi, “ndhi Israila, mal ya kpe wa bi tre bi ti ni ndhi biyi.
And said unto them—Men of Israel! be taking heed unto yourselves, what ye are about to inflict upon these men.
36 Kafi du vi biyi ye, Theudus a lu wru nda gbresan ndi wawu hi ndior, u ndhi bari, ba derinzia ba zontu hu. Ba wuu, duka biwa bata hu'a ba vra hi kankan ni zremba ngame a na ti tu na.
For, before these days, there rose up one Theudas, affirming, himself, to be somebody, —unto whom was inclined a number of men, about four hundred; who was slain, and, all as many as had been trusting in him, were disbanded, and came to nothing.
37 Bay ki ma u, Juda wu Galile a lu kri ni vi wa ba bla ndhi nda gbron bari baka hu. wawu ngame a que kado u biwa bata hu'a ba vera hi kan kan.
After him, rose up Judas the Galilaean, in the days of the enrolling, and drew a people into revolt after him; and, he, perished, and, all, as many as had trusted in him, were scattered.
38 Zizan mi lhayiwu, rhu ni nkon ndhi biyi di don ba toome, idan shiri yo ko ndu yi, hi wundi ana kri gban me na nda vralhe.
Now, therefore, I say unto you—stand aloof from these men, and let them alone; because if, of men, be this project or this work, it will be overthrown, —
39 Anita ndu Irjhi, bina iya yi nasara ni ba na bi klna to bisi tsi ni Irjhimu.” Toki ba kpanyme ni tre ma.
But, if it is, of God, ye will not be able to overthrow them: lest once, even fighters against God, ye be found.
40 Mle ba yo manzaniba ri ni son nda lhobatsi nda hla ndi du ba na tre ni nde Yesu na, nda du ba hi kpamba.
And they were persuaded by him; and, calling unto them the Apostles, they, with beating, charged them not be speaking upon the name of Jesus; and let them go.
41 Ba rhu rhi ni son bi ninko'a ni takpe don ba he ni mi biwa ba mla duba ti ba ya nitu ndema.
They, therefore, went rejoicing from the presence of the high-council; in that they had been accounted worthy, in behalf of The Name, to suffer dishonour.
42 Hu kima, chachu, ni mi haikali mba ni ko hi ni ko, ba zi tsro ndani d'bu ni lha njo ndi Yesu wawuyi hi Kristi.
And, every day in the temple, and at home, they ceased not to be teaching, and telling the good news as to the Anointed Jesus.
