1 Inali nthawi yomweyi imene mfumu Herode anamanga ena a mu mpingo ndi cholinga chakuti awazunze.
Mme ka nako e o Kgosi Herode o ne a nna kgatlhanong le badumedi bangwe,
2 Iye analamula kuti Yakobo mʼbale wa Yohane, aphedwe ndi lupanga.
mme a bolaya moaposetoloi Jakobe (mogoloa Johane).
3 Ataona kuti zimenezi zinakondweretsa Ayuda, anawonjeza ndi kugwiranso Petro. Izi zinachitika pa nthawi ya Chikondwerero cha Buledi wopanda Yisiti.
Erile fa Herode a bona gore go itumedisa baeteledipele ba Bajuta jang, a tshwara Petere ka modiro wa Tlolaganyo,
4 Atamugwira Petro, namutsekera mʼndende, anamupereka kwa magulu anayi a asilikali kuti amuyangʼanire, gulu lililonse linali ndi asilikali anayi. Herode anafuna kumuzenga mlandu pamaso pa anthu onse chikondwerero cha Paska chitapita.
mme a mo tsenya mo kgolegelong, a mmaya ka fa tlase ga tlhokomelo ya masole a le lesome le borataro. Maikaelelo a ga Herode e ne e le go isa Petere kwa Bajuteng gore a bolawe morago ga modiro wa Tlolaganyo.
5 Kotero Petro anasungidwa mʼndende, koma mpingo unamupempherera kolimba kwa Mulungu.
Mme thapelo e e nonofileng e tswa mo phuthegong e ne ya tsena kwa Modimong gore Petere a babalesege ka nako tsotlhe fa a sa ntse a le mo kgolegelong.
6 Usiku woti mmawa mwake Herode amuzenga mlandu, Petro amagona pakati pa asilikali awiri, atamangidwa maunyolo awiri, ndiponso alonda atayima pa khomo.
Bosigo pele ga nako e o neng a tshwanetse go bolawa ka yone, o ne a robetse, a bofilwe thata ka keetane a le fa gare ga masole a le mabedi le ba bangwe ba eme ba tlhokometse fa pele ga kgoro ya kgolegelo,
7 Mwadzidzidzi mngelo wa Ambuye anaonekera ndipo kuwala kunawunika mʼchipindamo. Mngeloyo anamugwedeza Petro mʼnthiti ndi kumudzutsa. Iye anati, “Fulumira, imirira!” Ndipo maunyolo anagwa kuchoka mʼmanja a Petro.
fa ka tshoganetso go nna lesedi mo ntlwaneng ya kgolegelo mme moengele wa Morena a ema fa thoko ga ga Petere! Moengele a mo itaya fa lotlhakoreng go mo tsosa, a mo raya a re, “Tsoga ka bonako!” Mme dikeetane tsa wa mo mabogong a gagwe!
8 Kenaka mngelo anati kwa iye, “Vala zovala ndi nsapato.” Ndipo Petro atachita izi mngeloyo anamuwuzanso kuti, “Funda chovala chako ndipo unditsate.”
Mme moengele a mo raya a re, “Apara o rwale ditlhako tsa gago.” Mme a dira jalo. Moengele a re, “Apara seaparo sa gago o ntshale morago!”
9 Petro anatsatira natuluka mʼndende, koma sanazindikire kuti zimene mngeloyo amachita zimachitikadi; iye amaganiza kuti amaona masomphenya.
Mme Petere a tlogela ntlwana ya kgolegelo, a sala moengele morago. Mme ka nako yotlhe o ne a gopola gore ke toro kana ponatshegelo mme o ne a sa dumele gore tota go a direga.
10 Iwo anadutsa gulu loyamba ndi lachiwiri la asilikali ndipo anafika pa chitseko chachitsulo cholowera mu mzinda. Chitsekocho chinatsekuka chokha ndipo anadutsa. Pamene anayenda kutalika kwa msewu umodzi, mwadzidzidzi mngelo uja anachoka.
Ba ne ba feta ntlwana ya kgolegelo ya bobedi, mme ba tla fa kgorong ya tshipi fa mmileng, mme ya ba bulegela ka bo yone! ba feta ba tsamaya botlhe, mme moengele a mo tlogela.
11 Pamenepo Petro anazindikira nati, “Tsopano ndikudziwa mosakayika kuti Ambuye anatuma mngelo wake kudzandipulumutsa mʼmanja mwa Herode, ndi ku zoyipa zonse zimene Ayuda amafuna kundichitira.”
Mme kwa morago Petere a lemoga se se diragetseng; O ne a ithaya a re, “Ke boammaaruri! Morena o romile moengele wa gagwe ebile o mphaloditse mo go Herode le mo go se Bajuta ba neng ba ikemiseditse go se dira ka nna!”
12 Atazindikira zimenezi anapita ku nyumba ya Mariya amayi ake a Yohane, wotchedwanso Marko, kumene kunasonkhana anthu ambiri ndipo amapemphera.
Morago ga a itharabologelwa a ya kwa lwapeng lwa ga Marea, mmaagwe Johane Mareko, kwa ba le bantsi ba neng ba kgobokanetse thapelo teng.
13 Petro anagogoda pa chitseko cha panja, ndipo mtsikana wantchito dzina lake Roda anabwera kuti adzatsekule chitseko.
O ne a kokota fa setswalong, se se kwa ntle, mme mosetsana yo o bidiwang Roda a tla go bula.
14 Atazindikira mawu a Petro anakondwa kwambiri ndipo anabwerera osatsekula ndipo anafuwula kuti, “Petro ali pa khomopa!”
Erile fa a lemoga lentswe la ga Petere, a itumela thata mo a neng a tabogela mo teng go bolelela mongwe le mongwe gore Petere o eme kwa ntle mo mmileng.
15 Anthuwo anati kwa iye, “Wopenga iwe!” Atalimbikira kunena kuti zinali zoona, iwo anati, “Ameneyo ndi mngelo wake.”
Ga ba a ka ba mo dumela. Ba ne ba re, “O a tsenwa,” mme erile a tlhomamisa ba re, “E tshwanetse ya bo e le moengele wa gagwe. (Ba tshwanetse ba bo ba mmolaile).”
16 Koma Petro anapitiriza kugogoda ndipo atatsekula chitseko ndi kumuona, anthuwo anadabwa kwambiri.
Ka lobaka loo Petere ene o ne a tsweletse a kokota.
17 Petro anakweza dzanja ndi kuwawuza kuti akhale chete ndipo anawafotokozera mmene Ambuye anamutulutsira mʼndende. Iye anati, “Uzani Yakobo ndi abale ena za zimenezi.” Kenaka anachoka napita kumalo ena.
A ya kwa go bone a ba didimatsa mme a ba bolelela se se diragetseng le ka fa Morena a mo ntshitseng mo kgolegelong ka teng. Erile a tsamaya are, “Bolelelang Jakobe le ba bangwe se se diragetseng.”
18 Pamene kunacha kunali phokoso lalikulu pakati pa asilikali, iwo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi chamuchitikira Petro ndi chiyani?”
Mme ya re fa bosigo boo sa, ga tsoga pheretlhego e kgolo kwa kgolegelong. Batlhabani ba botsanya gore Petere o ile kae?
19 Herode atamufunafuna ndipo wosamupeza, anawafunsa asilikali ndipo analamulira kuti asilikaliwo aphedwe. Kenaka Herode anachoka ku Yudeya ndi kupita ku Kaisareya ndipo anakhala kumeneko kwa kanthawi
Erile fa Herode a romela gore a Petere a ye go bidiwa mme a utlwa gotwe ga a yo, a laola gore batlhokomedi ba ba lesome le borataro ba tshwarwe, mme ba bolawe. Erile kwa morago a tsamaya go ya go nna kwa Kaesarea ka lobakanyana.
20 Herode anakwiyira anthu a ku Turo ndi Sidoni; anthuwo anagwirizana zoti akambirane naye. Atapeza thandizo kuchokera kwa Blasito, wantchito wokhulupirika wa mfumu, anapempha kuti pakhale mtendere, chifukwa dziko lawo limadalira dziko la mfumuyo pa chakudya chawo.
Erile a ntse a le mo Kaesarea, ga tla barongwa ba ba neng ba tswa Ture le Sidoma ba tsile go mmona. Ga a ka a itumelela batho ba metse e mebedi eo, mme barongwa ba itsalanya le Belaseto, mokwaledi wa bogosi, ba bo ba kopa kagiso, gonne mo kgwebong, metse ya bone e ne e ikaegile thata mo lefatsheng la ga Herode.
21 Pa tsiku limene anasankha Herode, atavala zovala zake zaufumu, anakhala pa mpando wake ndipo anayankhula kwa anthuwo.
Go ne ga dirwa tumalano ya go buisanya le Herode, mme erile fa letsatsi leo le tla, a apara diaparo tsa gagwe tsa bogosi, a nna mo setilong sa gagwe mme a bua nabo.
22 Anthuwo anafuwula nati, “Amenewa ndi mawu a mulungu osati a munthu ayi.”
Mme erile kwa bokhutlong batho ba duduetsa ba re, “Ke lentswe la Modimo e seng la motho!”
23 Nthawi yomweyo mngelo wa Mulungu anamukantha chifukwa sanapereke ulemu kwa Mulungu ndipo anadyedwa ndi mphutsi nafa.
Ka bonako, moengele wa Morena a otlhaya Herode ka bolwetse mo e leng gore o ne a jewa ke diboko a ntse a tshela mme a swa ka gonne o ne a amogela kobamelo ya batho go na le gore a galaletse Modimo.
24 Koma Mawu a Mulungu anapitirirabe kufalikirafalikira.
Mafoko a Modimo a a Molemo a ne a anama ka bofefo mme go ne ga nna badumedi ba basha ba le bantsi.
25 Barnaba ndi Saulo atamaliza ntchito yawo anachoka ku Yerusalemu, atatenga Yohane wotchedwanso Marko.
Mme Barenabase le Paulo ba ne ba etela Jerusalema, mme ya re ba sena go fetsa tiro ya bone, ba boela kwa Antioka, ba tsaya Johane Mareko.
