Mga Buhat 3
1 Ug unya si Pedro ug si Juan nagkuyog sa pagsaka sa templo sa takna sa pag-ampo, nga mao ang ikatulong takna sa hapon.
[One day] Peter and John were going to the Temple [courtyard]. It was three o’clock in the afternoon, which was the time when people prayed [there publicly].
2 Ug didtoy gidala nga usa ka lalaki nga bakul sukad pa sa iyang pagkahimugso, nga sa adlaw-adlaw didto igabutang sa pultahan sa templo, nga ginganlag Pultahang Matahum, aron sa pagpalimos kanila nga nanagpanulod sa templo.
There was a man there who had been lame from the time he was born. He [was sitting by] the gate called Beautiful [Gate], at the entrance to the Temple [area]. People put him there every day, so that he could ask those who were entering [or leaving] the temple courtyard to give him some money.
3 Sa pagkakita niya kang Pedro ug kang Juan nga nagpaingon na sa sulod sa templo, siya nangayo kanilag limos.
As Peter and John were about to enter [the Temple courtyard], the lame man saw them and asked them several times to give him some money. (OR, The lame man said to them several times, “Please give me some money!”)
4 Ug si Pedro, kinuyogan ni Juan, mitutok ug miingon kaniya, "Tan-aw kanamo."
As Peter and John looked directly at him, Peter said to him, “Look at us!”
5 Ug siya naminaw kanila, nagpaabut nga adunay iyang madawat gikan kanila.
So he looked directly at them, expecting to get some [money] from them.
6 Apan si Pedro miingon kaniya, "Ako walay salapi o bulawan, apan sa ania kanako hatagan ko ikaw. Sa ngalan ni Jesu-Cristo nga Nazaretnon, paglakaw."
Then Peter said to him, “I do not have any money [MTY], but what I [can do], I will [do] for you. Jesus Christ, [who was] from Nazareth [town], has authorized [MTY] me [to heal you! So get up and] walk!”
7 Ug iyang gikuptan siya sa toong kamot ug gialsa; ug dihadiha nabaskog ang iyang mga tiil ug mga buolbuol.
Then Peter grasped the man’s right hand and helped him to stand up. Immediately the man’s feet and ankles became strong.
8 Ug sa pag-ugpo pa niya, siya nakatindog ug nakalakaw; ug kuyog kanila siya misulod sa templo nga naglakaw ug nagluksolukso ug nagdayeg sa Dios.
He jumped up and began to walk! Then he entered the Temple [area] with them, walking and leaping and praising God!
9 Ug ang tanang tawo nakakita kaniya nga naglakaw na ug nagdayeg sa Dios.
All the people [there] saw that man walking and praising God.
10 Ug ilang hing-ilhan siya nga mao ang tawo nga maglingkoran sa Pultahang Matahum sa templo aron sa pagpalimos; ug sila giabut ug kahibulong ug kahitingala sa nahitabo kaniya.
They recognized that he was the man who used to sit at the Beautiful Gate in the Temple [courtyard] and ask [people] for money! So all the people there were greatly amazed at what had happened to him.
11 Ug samtang nagpanggunit pa siya kang Pedro ug Juan, ang tanang tawo sa dakung kahibulong midugok ngadto kanila sa portico nga ginganlag Portico ni Salomon.
As the man clung to Peter and John, all the people were so surprised [that they did not know what to think] So they ran to the two apostles at the place [in the Temple courtyard] that is called {that [people] call} Solomon’s Porch.
12 Ug sa pagkakita ni Pedro niini, ang mga tawo iyang gisultihan nga nag-ingon, "Mga taga-Israel, nganong inyo man kining gikahibudngan, ug nganong inyo man kaming ginatotukan nga daw kami gayud mao ang nakahimo kaniya sa pagpalakaw pinaagi sa among kaugalingong kagahum o pagkadiosnon?
When Peter saw that, he said to the crowd, “Fellow Israelites, (you should not be surprised about what has happened to this man!/why are you so surprised about what has happened to this man?) [RHQ] And you should not stare at us, either! You seem to [RHQ] think that the two of us enabled this man to walk because we [(exc)] ourselves are powerful or because we please God very much!
13 Ang Dios ni Abraham ug ni Isaac ug ni Jacob, ang Dios sa atong mga ginikanan, nagpasidungog sa iyang Alagad nga si Jesus, nga inyong gitugyan ug gidumilian sa atubangan ni Pilato, sa diha nga nahukman na unta niini nga pabuhian na lamang siya.
[So I will tell you what is really happening]. Our ancestors, including Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, worshipped God. And now he has greatly honored Jesus, who always served him. Your [leaders] brought Jesus [to the governor, Pilate], so that [his soldiers would kill him]. And [God considers that] in front of Pilate you [were the ones who rejected] Jesus [as your king], after Pilate had decided that he should release Jesus.
14 Apan inyong gidumilian ang Balaan ug Matarung, ug inyong gipangayo nga maoy buhian alang kaninyo ang usa ka mamomuno,
[Although Jesus] always did what was right/just and good, you rejected him. [Pilate wanted to release him, but] you urgently asked Pilate to release (a murderer/someone who had killed people)!
15 ug inyong gipatay ang Mag-uugda sa kinabuhi, ang gibanhaw sa Dios gikan sa mga patay. Kami mga saksi niini.
[God considers that] you killed [Jesus], the one who gives people [eternal] life. But God has greatly honored him (by causing him to become alive again after he died/by raising him from the dead). Many of us saw [him after that, and now] we [(exc)] are telling [you] about it.
16 Ug ang iyang ngalan, pinasikad sa pagtoo sa iyang ngalan, nakapahimong mabaskog niining tawhana nga inyong nakita ug nailhan; ug ang pagtoo nga pinasikad kang Jesus maoy naghatag kaniya niining hingpit nga pagkaayo sa atubangan ninyong tanan.
It is because [we two] trusted in what Jesus [MTY, PRS] [could do, that he] made this man, whom you see and know, strong again. Yes, it is because we [(exc)] trusted in Jesus that he has completely healed this man for all of you to see.”
17 "Ug karon, mga igsoon, ako nasayud nga kadto inyong gibuhat tungod kay kamo wala man mahibalo, maingon sa pagbuhat usab sa inyong mga punoan.
“Now, my fellow-countrymen, I know that you and your leaders did that [to Jesus] because you [and they] did not know [that he was the Messiah].
18 Apan sa ingon niini gituman sa Dios ang iyang gipasidaan pinaagi sa baba sa tanang mga profeta, nga kinahanglan gayud mag-antus ang iyang Cristo.
However, [your putting him to death] was what God had predicted that people would do. [Long ago] he told all the prophets [MTY] to write [what people would do to the Messiah. They wrote] that the Messiah, whom God [would send], would suffer [and die].
19 Busa, paghinulsol kamo, ug pamalik na kamo kaniya, aron mapala ang inyong mga sala, aron ang mga panahon sa kahayahay magaabut gikan sa atubangan sa Ginoo
So, turn away from your sinful behavior and ask God [to help you] do what pleases [him], in order that he may completely forgive you for your sins.
20 ug aron iyang ipadala si Jesus, ang Cristo nga gitagana alang kaninyo,
[If you do that], there will be times [when you will know that] the Lord [God is] helping [you]. And some day he will [again] send back [to earth] the Messiah, whom he appointed for you. That person is Jesus.
21 siya nga kinahanglan pagahawiran una sa langit hangtud sa panahon sa pagtuman na sa tanang gisulti sa Dios pinaagi sa baba sa iyang mga balaang profeta sukad pa sa karaang kapanahonan. (aiōn g165)
Jesus must stay in heaven until the time when God will cause all that he has created to become new. Long ago God promised [to do that, and] he chose holy prophets to tell [that to people]. (aiōn g165)
22 Kay si Moises nag-ingon, `Usa ka profeta gikan sa inyong kaigsoonan igapatindog sa Ginoong Dios alang kaninyo, maingon sa iyang pagpatindog kanako. Magpatalinghug kamo kaniya sa tanan nga iyang igasulti kaninyo.
For [example, the prophet] Moses said [this about the Messiah]: ‘The Lord (your God/the God whom you [worship]) will cause someone to become a prophet to tell you [God’s message. God will send him] as [he sent] me, [and he will be] from among your own people. You must listen to everything that this prophet tells you [and obey him] [SYN].
23 Ug ang tanan nga magadumili sa pagpatalinghug sa maong profeta pagapoohon gikan sa katawhan.'
[Those who] do not listen to [that prophet and obey] him will no longer belong to God’s people, and [God] will get rid of them’.”
24 Ug ang tanang mga profeta sukad pa kang Samuel ug sa mga nagsunod kaniya, ang tanan kanila nga misulti, nanagpahibalo usab mahitungod niining mga adlawa.
[Peter continued], “All the prophets have told [about what would happen during] the time [MTY] [in which we(inc) are living. Those prophets include] Samuel [and all the others who] later also spoke [about these events] before they happened.
25 Kamo mao ang mga anak sa mga profeta ug sa pakigsaad nga gihimo sa Dios uban sa inyong mga ginikanan, sa iyang pag-ingon kang Abraham, `Pinaagi sa imong kaliwat pagapanalanginan ang tanang kabanayan sa yuta.'
You [as well as we(exc)] are the people [to whom God sent the Messiah, as] the prophets said [MTY] [that he would]. And when God strongly promised [to bless] our ancestors, he also surely promised to bless you. He said to Abraham [concerning the Messiah], ‘[I] will bless all people on the earth as a result of [what] your descendant [will do].’”
26 Kamo mao ang unang gipadad-an sa Dios sa iyang Alagad, sa iya nang napatindog siya, aron sa pagpanalangin kaninyo pinaagi sa pagpatalikod sa matag-usa kaninyo gikan sa inyong pagkadautan."
[Peter concluded], “[So] when God sent [to the earth] (Jesus, the one who always obeys him/his servant Jesus), he sent him first to you [Israelites] to bless you. [God will] enable you to stop doing what is wicked [and to start doing what pleases him].”
