Acts 2
1 And while fulfilling the day of Pentecost, they were all together at the same place.
Mgbe ụbọchị Pentikọọsụ ruru, ha niile zukọtara nʼotu ebe.
2 And suddenly there developed a sound from the sky as of a forceful wind moving, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting.
Na mberede, ụzụ yiri nke oke ifufe dị ike sitere nʼeluigwe bịa jupụta nʼụlọ ahụ ha nọ.
3 And there appeared to them dividing tongues, as of fire, and they settled upon each one of them.
Ha hụrụ ihe dịka ire ọkụ ka o kewara nọkwasị nʼisi ha nʼotu nʼotu.
4 And they were all filled of the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them to declare.
Ha niile jupụtara na Mmụọ Nsọ, malite ịsụ asụsụ dị iche iche dịka Mmụọ Nsọ nyere ha ike.
5 Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem, Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven.
Nʼoge ahụ, ọtụtụ ndị Juu ji obi ọcha na-efe Chineke nọ na Jerusalem. Ndị si na mba dị iche iche nʼokpuru eluigwe.
6 And the sound of this that happened brought the multitude together. And it was bewildered because each one heard them speaking in his own language.
Igwe mmadụ gbakọtara nʼọnọdụ mgbagwoju anya mgbe ha nụrụ ụzụ ahụ, nʼihi na ha nụrụ ka ha na-asụ asụsụ nke onye ọbụla nʼime ha na-aghọta, nʼasụsụ obodo ha dị iche iche.
7 And they were amazed and marveled, saying to each other, Behold, are not all these men who speak Galileans?
Nʼoke iju anya, ha kwurịtara nʼonwe ha, “Ndị a niile na-ekwu okwu ha abụghị ndị Galili?
8 And how do we each hear our own language in which we were born?
Gịnị mere onye ọbụla nʼime anyị ji na-anụ okwu ha na-ekwu nʼasụsụ ala anyị dị iche iche?
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those dwelling in Mesopotamia, and Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
Ndị Patia, na ndị Midia, na ndị Elam, ndị bikwa nʼime Mesopotamịa, ndị Judịa, na ndị Kapadosia, ndị Pọntọs, na ndị Eshịa,
10 and Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya along Cyrene, and those Roman aliens, including Jews and proselytes,
ndị Frigia, na ndị Pamfilia, na ndị Ijipt, na ndị akụkụ Libiya nke dị Sirini nso, na ndị ọbịa si na Rom bịa
11 Cretes and Arabians. We hear them speaking in our tongues the great things of God.
(ndị Juu na ndị kwere nʼokpukpe ndị Juu). Ndị Kriit na ndị Arab; anyị na-anụ okwu ha na-ekwu nʼasụsụ anyị dị iche iche banyere ọrụ ebube Chineke.”
12 And they were all amazed, and were perplexed, others saying to others, Whatever does this intend to be?
O juru ha anya, gbaakwa ha gharịị. Ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Gịnị ka nke a bụ?”
13 But others, mocking said, They are filled of wine.
Ma ụfọdụ ndị ọzọ na-akwa ha emo na-asị, “Ndị a bụ ndị mmanya na-egbu.”
14 But Peter having stood up with the eleven, raised his voice and spoke out to them, saying, Jewish men, and all who dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and listen to my sayings.
Pita guzoro, ya na ndị ozi iri na otu ahụ welie olu gwa ọgbakọ ahụ okwu, “Ndị Juu na unu ndị bi na Jerusalem, matanụ nke a, geekwanụ ntị na ihe m na-ekwu.
15 For these men are not drunken, as ye suppose, for it is the third hour of the day.
Ọ bụghị mmanya na-egbu ndị a dị ka unu chere. Lee, ọ bụ naanị elekere itoolu nke ụtụtụ na-akụ.
16 But this is that which was spoken through the prophet Joel:
Mba, nke a bụ mmezu ihe Juel onye amụma kwuru,
17 And it will be in the last days, says God, I will pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your elders will dream dreams.
“‘Chineke sịrị, nʼoge ikpeazụ, aga m awụkwasị mmadụ niile Mmụọ m. Ụmụ unu ndị ikom na ụmụ unu ndị inyom ga-ebu amụma, ụmụ okorobịa unu ga-ahụkwa ọhụ, ndị okenye nwoke unu ga-arọ nrọ.
18 And also on my bondmen and on my bondmaids in those days I will pour out from my Spirit, and they will prophesy.
Ọ bụladị ndị ohu m, nwoke ha na nwanyị nʼime ha, ka m ga-awụkwasị Mmụọ m. Ha ga-ebukwa amụma.
19 And I will give wonders in the heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke.
Aga m egosi ihe ịtụnanya na mbara eluigwe, gosikwa ihe ịrịbama nʼụwa na nʼokpuru ụwa, ọbara na ọkụ na alulu anwụrụ ọkụ.
20 The sun will be changed into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and wonderful day of the Lord comes.
Anyanwụ ga-agbanwe ghọọ ọchịchịrị, ọnwa ga-aghọkwa ọbara, tupu ụbọchị Onyenwe anyị abịa, bụ ụbọchị ahụ dị ukwu dịkwa ebube.
21 And it will be, that every man, whoever may call on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Ọ ga-erukwa, na onye ọbụla nke na-akpọku aha Onyenwe anyị, ka a ga-azọpụta.’
22 Men, Israelites, hear ye these words. Jesus the Nazarene, a man shown by God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know,
“Ndị Izrel, geenụ ntị nʼokwu a, Jisọs onye Nazaret bụ nwoke Chineke gosiri unu, site nʼọrụ dị ike, nʼọrụ ebube nakwa ihe ịrịbama niile nke Chineke rụrụ nʼetiti unu site nʼaka ya, dịka unu ji anya unu hụ.
23 this man, having been designated (by the purpose and foreknowledge of God) a man delivered up, ye, having taken by lawless hands, killed, having crucified,
Onye a ka e weere nyefee unu nʼaka site na nzube nke Chineke buru ụzọ tụọ atụmatụ ya, na dịka o siri mara na mbụ, ọ bụ ya ka unu gburu ma kpọgidekwa nʼobe site nʼaka ndị na-amaghị iwu.
24 whom God raised up, having loosed the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it.
Ma Chineke emela ka o site nʼọnwụ bilie mgbe ọ tọpụchara ihe mgbu nke ọnwụ, nʼihi na ọnwụ enweghị ike ijide ya.
25 For David speaks for him: I beheld the Lord always before me, because he is at my right hand, so that I may not be moved.
Devid kwuru banyere ya, “‘Ana m ahụ Onyenwe anyị ka ọ na-anọgide nʼihu m mgbe niile. Nʼihi na ọ nọ nʼaka nri m. Agaghị m ama jijiji.
26 Because of this my heart rejoiced, and my tongue was glad. And moreover my flesh will also rest in hope.
Ya mere, ọṅụ jupụtara m obi, ire m na-aṅụrịkwa ọṅụ; anụ ahụ m ga-ezukwa ike nʼolileanya,
27 Because thou will not leave my soul in Hades, nor will thou give thy Holy man to see decay. (Hadēs g86)
nʼihi na ị gaghị ahapụ mkpụrụobi m nʼala mmụọ, ị gakwaghị ahapụ anụ ahụ nke Onye gị dị nsọ ka ọ hụ ire ure. (Hadēs g86)
28 Thou made known to me the paths of life. Thou will fill me of joy with thy countenance.
I mere ka m mara ụzọ nke ndụ; ị ga-emekwa ka m jupụta nʼọṅụ nʼihu gị.’
29 Men, brothers, being permitted to speak to you with openness about the patriarch David, that he both perished and was buried, and his sepulcher is with us to this day.
“Ụmụnna m, eji m nkwuwa okwu na-agwa unu banyere nna nna anyị Devid, bụ onye nwụrụ anwụ e lie ya. Ili ya dịkwa nʼetiti anyị taa.
30 Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, to raise the Christ from the fruit of his loins according to flesh to sit upon his throne.
Ma ọ bụ onye amụma marakwa na Chineke jiri ịṅụ iyi kwee ya nkwa na otu nʼime ụmụ ya ga-anọkwasị nʼocheeze ya.
31 Having foreseen this, he spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that his soul was not left behind in Hades, nor did his flesh see decay. (Hadēs g86)
Ebe o buuru ụzọ hụ ihe ga-eme nʼoge dị nʼihu, o kwuru banyere mbilite nʼọnwụ nke Kraịst, mgbe ọ sịrị, a hapụghị ya nʼala mmụọ; anụ ahụ ya ahụghịkwa ire ure. (Hadēs g86)
32 This Jesus, God raised up, of which we are all witnesses.
Ọ bụ Jisọs a ka Chineke mere ka ọ dị ndụ ọzọ. Anyị niile bụkwa ndị akaebe banyere ya.
33 Therefore, exalted by the right hand of God, and having received the promise of the Holy Spirit from the Father, he poured out this that ye now see and hear.
Ebe ọ bụ na e buliela ya elu nʼaka nri Chineke. Ọ natala Mmụọ Nsọ dịka Nna ya kwere na nkwa. Ihe a unu na-ahụ na nke unu na-anụ bụ onyinye ya ọ wụkwasịrị anyị.
34 For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand
Ọ dịghị oge Devid jiri rigoro nʼeluigwe, ma ya onwe ya sịrị, “‘Onyenwe anyị gwara Onyenwe m sị, “Nọdụ ala nʼaka nri m,
35 until I place thine enemies a footstool of thy feet.
ruo mgbe m ga-eme ndị iro gị ihe mgbakwasị ụkwụ nye ụkwụ gị.”’
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God has made him, this Jesus whom ye crucified, both Lord and Christ.
“Ya mere, ana m eme ka ezinaụlọ Izrel niile mara nke ọma, na Chineke emeela Jisọs a onye unu kpọgidere nʼobe ka ọ bụrụ Onyenwe anyị na Kraịst.”
37 Now having heard this, they were pierced in the heart, and said to Peter and the other apostles, Men, brothers, what will we do?
Mgbe ha nụrụ ihe ndị a, akọnuche ha mara ha ikpe. Ha sịrị Pita na ndị ozi ndị ọzọ, “Ụmụnna, gịnị ka anyị ga-eme?”
38 And Peter said to them, Repent ye, and be immersed each of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Ma Pita sịrị ha, “Chegharịanụ unu niile. Ka e mekwa unu baptizim nʼaha Jisọs Kraịst, maka mgbaghara mmehie unu. Unu ga-anatakwa onyinye nke Mmụọ Nsọ.
39 For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all those in afar, as many as the Lord our God may call.
Nkwa a dịrị unu na ụmụ ụmụ unu na mmadụ niile nọ nʼebe dị anya, dịkwara ndị niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke ga-akpọ ka ha bịakwute ya.”
40 And with many more other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, Be saved from this crooked generation.
O jiri ọtụtụ okwu ndị ọzọ gbaa ama, ma dụọkwa ha ọdụ sị, “Sitenụ nʼetiti ọgbọ a jọrọ njọ zọpụta onwe unu.”
41 Indeed therefore those who received his word gladly, were immersed. And there were added in that day about three thousand souls.
E mere ndị nabatara okwu ya baptizim, ha dị ihe ruru puku mmadụ atọ, a gụnyere nʼọnụọgụgụ ha.
42 And they were continuing steadfastly in the apostles doctrine, and in fellowship, and in the breaking of bread, and the prayers.
Ha nyefere onwe ha nʼozizi nke ndị ozi, ya na ife ofufe na ịnyawa achịcha nakwa ikpe ekpere.
43 And fear developed in every soul. And many wonders and signs occurred through the apostles.
Onye ọbụla nʼime ha jupụtara na egwu, nʼihi na ndị ozi na-arụ ọtụtụ ọrụ ebube, na ihe ịrịbama dị iche iche.
44 And all who believed were together, and had all things common.
Ndị niile kwere ekwe nọkọtara ọnụ, nwekọkwaa ihe niile ọnụ.
45 And they sold properties and possessions, and divided them to all, according as any man had need.
Ha rere ihe ha nwere na nke ha kpatara, kenye onye ọbụla dịka mkpa ya siri dị.
46 And continuing steadfastly, daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they partook of nourishment in gladness and evenness of heart,
Ha gara nʼihu na-ezukọta nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ikpe ekpere kwa ụbọchị. Ha na-erikọkwa nri nʼụlọ ha, nʼobi ọṅụ na ekele.
47 praising God, and having favor with the whole populace. And the Lord was adding to the church daily those being saved.
Dịka ha gara nʼihu na-eto Chineke, ha nwetara ihuọma nʼaka ndị mmadụ. Onyenwe anyị na-atụkwasịkwara ha ndị a na-azọpụta kwa ụbọchị.
