Tich Joote 11
1 Joote kod owete modak Judea duto nowinjo ni joma ok jo-Yahudi bende noserwako Wach Nyasaye.
Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
2 Omiyo kane Petro odhi Jerusalem, to joma oyie kuom Kristo ma jo-Yahudi nokwere
When Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,
3 kawacho niya, “Donge ne idhi e od joma ok jo-Yahudi mi ichiemo kodgi.”
saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”
4 To Petro nochako leronegi tiend gik moko duto mane osetimore, e yo mawinjore maler, kowacho niya,
But Peter began, and explained to them in order, saying,
5 “Ne antiere e dala mar Jopa ka alemo, to ka ayula wangʼ notera, ne aneno fweny. Ne aneno gima chalo suka malach kiloro piny koa e polo, komak kondene angʼwen. Nolor sukano nyaka kama ne antie.
“I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.
6 Ne angʼiyo iye mi aneno kit le mopidhi man-gi tiende angʼwen manie piny, gi le mager mag bungu, kod le mamol, gi winy mafuyo e kor polo.
When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky.
7 Bangʼe nawinjo dwol moro kawachona ni, ‘Petro, aa malo, mondo ineg gimoro kuom gigo icham.’
I also heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter, kill and eat!’
8 “An to ne adwoko ni, ‘Ooyo Ruoth! Onge gima kwero kata mochido mosedonjo e dhogani nyaka nene.’
But I said, ‘Not so, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.’
9 “Dwolno moa e polo nowuoyo koda kendo nyadiriyo kawachona ni, ‘Kik iluong gimoro amora ma Nyasaye osepwodho ni ok ler.’
But a voice answered me the second time out of heaven, ‘What God has cleansed, don’t you call unclean.’
10 Gima kamano notimore nyadidek, eka sukano nokaw modwoki e polo kendo.
This was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.
11 “E sa nogo ji adek mane oor ira koa Kaisaria nobiro mochopo e ot mane antie.
Behold, immediately three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.
12 Roho Maler nonyisa ni kik adeki ma ok adhi kodgi. Jowete auchielgi bende nodhi koda, mine wadonjo e od Kornelio.
The Spirit told me to go with them without discriminating. These six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered into the man’s house.
13 Nonyisowa kaka ne oseneno malaika kofwenyore e ode mowachone ni, ‘Or jomoko Jopa mondo oluongni Simon miluongo ni Petro.
He told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house and saying to him, ‘Send to Joppa and get Simon, who is called Peter,
14 Obiro keloni wach mabiro miyo iyud warruok, in kaachiel gi joodi duto.’
who will speak to you words by which you will be saved, you and all your house.’
15 “To e sa ma ne achako wuoyo, ema Roho Maler nolor kuomgi, mana kaka wan bende noselor kuomwa mokwongo.
As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as on us at the beginning.
16 Eka naparo kaka Ruoth nosewacho motelo ni, ‘Johana nobatiso ji gi pi, to un ibiro batisou gi Roho Maler.’
I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John indeed baptised in water, but you will be baptised in the Holy Spirit.’
17 Emomiyo ka Nyasaye nomiyogi mana mich achielno ma wan bende nomiyowa kane wayie kuom Ruoth Yesu Kristo, koro an to an ngʼa ma dine agengʼ tich Nyasaye!”
If then God gave to them the same gift as us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?”
18 Kane giwinjo wachno, ne giweyo Petro mos mi gipako Nyasaye, kagiwacho niya, “Kara en adier ni Nyasaye osemiyo joma ok jo-Yahudi thuolo mondo gin bende gilokre giyud ngima.”
When they heard these things, they held their peace and glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life!”
19 Joma sand nokeyo nikech wach nek Stefano nodhi Foinike, Saipras nyaka Antiokia, ka gilando Injili ne jo-Yahudi kende.
They therefore who were scattered abroad by the oppression that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except to Jews only.
20 To jomoko kuomgi mane oa Saipras kod Kurene, nodhi Antiokia ma gichako wuoyo gi jo-Yunani bende, ka ginyisogi Injili ma wuoyo kuom Ruoth Yesu.
But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the Lord Jesus.
21 Teko Nyasaye ne ni kodgi, omiyo ji mathoth noyie kendo olokore kuom Ruoth.
The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
22 Wachni nolandore mochopo e it kanisa mane ni Jerusalem, omiyo negioro Barnaba e dala Antiokia.
The report concerning them came to the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem. They sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch,
23 Kane ochopo mi oneno kaka ngʼwono Nyasaye ne tiyo kuom jogo, nomor ahinya, kendo nojiwogi duto mondo gisiki kuom Ruoth gadiera kendo gi chunygi duto.
who, when he had come, and had seen the grace of God, was glad. He exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they should remain near to the Lord.
24 Barnaba ne en ngʼat maber, mopongʼ gi Roho Maler kod yie kendo ji ma kwan-gi thoth ahinya nolokore obiro ir Ruoth.
For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith, and many people were added to the Lord.
25 Bangʼe Barnaba nodhi Tarso mondo omany Saulo,
Barnabas went out to Tarsus to look for Saul.
26 to kane oyude, nodok kode Antiokia. Kuom higa achiel mangima, Barnaba gi Saulo ne chokore gi kanisa ka gipuonjo ji ma kwan-gi ngʼeny ahinya. Antiokia kuno ema ne okuong luongoe jopuonjre ni jo-Kristo.
When he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they were gathered together with the assembly, and taught many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
27 E kindeno, jonabi moko nobiro Antiokia ka gia Jerusalem.
Now in these days, prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28 Achiel kuomgi, mane iluongo ni Agaba nochungʼ mokoro wach kuom Roho, ni kech marach ne biro landore mi kwak piny Rumi duto. Kejni nobet e kinde loch Klaudio.
One of them named Agabus stood up and indicated by the Spirit that there should be a great famine all over the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius.
29 Kuom mano, jopuonjre nowinjore mar oro kony kaluwore gi nyalo margi, ni jowete mane odak Judea.
As any of the disciples had plenty, each determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea;
30 Negitimo mano mi gioro Barnaba gi Saulo jotero konygigo ne jodong kanisa.
which they also did, sending it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
