< Acts 2 >
1 And when the day of Pentecost was now come, they were all together in one place.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũthenya wa Bendegothito wakinyire-rĩ, acio othe magĩkorwo maarĩ handũ hamwe.
2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
Na o rĩmwe mũgambo ta wa rũhuho rũnene rũkũhurutana na hinya ũgĩũka kuuma igũrũ, ũkĩiyũra nyũmba yothe ĩrĩa maaikarĩte.
3 And there appeared unto them tongues parting asunder, like as of fire; and it sat upon each one of them.
Makĩona kĩndũ gĩatariĩ ta nĩnĩmbĩ cia mwaki iria ciagayũkanĩte igĩikara igũrũ rĩa mũndũ o mũndũ.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Othe makĩiyũrio Roho Mũtheru na makĩambĩrĩria kwaria na thiomi ingĩ o ta ũrĩa Roho aamahotithirie.
5 Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
Na rĩrĩ, kũu Jerusalemu nĩ gwaikaraga Ayahudi etigĩri Ngai kuuma ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe cia thĩ.
6 And when this sound was heard, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speaking in his own language.
Rĩrĩa maiguire mũgambo ũcio, gĩkundi kĩa andũ gĩgĩcookanĩrĩra kĩgegete, tondũ o mũndũ aamaiguaga makĩaria na rũthiomi rwake kĩũmbe.
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying, Behold, are not all these that speak Galilæans?
Nao makĩgega mũno, makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Githĩ andũ aya othe maraaria ti andũ a Galili?
8 And how hear we, every man in our own language wherein we were born?
Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma mũndũ o mũndũ witũ amaigue makĩaria na rũthiomi rwa kũrĩa aaciarĩirwo?
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, in Judæa and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Asia,
Andũ a Parithi, na a Media, na a Elamu; o na andũ arĩa matũũraga Mesopotamia, na Judea, na Kapadokia, na Ponto, na Asia,
10 in Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and sojourners from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
na Firigia, na Pamufilia, na Misiri, na mĩena ya Libia ĩrĩa ĩrĩ gũkuhĩ na Kurene, na ageni a kuuma Roma,
11 Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking in our tongues the mighty works of God.
(Ayahudi hamwe na andũ arĩa meegarũrĩte magatuĩka Ayahudi); na andũ a Kirete, na a Arabia, tũramaigua makĩaria na thiomi ciitũ ũhoro wa magegania ma Ngai!”
12 And they were all amazed, and were perplexed, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
Mamakĩte na makagega makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩ kuuga atĩa?”
13 But others mocking said, They are filled with new wine.
Amwe ao, o na kũrĩ ũguo, nĩmamathirĩkirie, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Aya nĩkũrĩĩo marĩĩtwo nĩ ndibei.”
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and spake forth unto them, [saying], Ye men of Judæa, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and give ear unto my words.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Petero akĩrũgama hamwe na arĩa ikũmi na ũmwe, akĩanĩrĩra na akĩarĩria gĩkundi kĩu kĩa andũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ andũ aitũ Ayahudi o na inyuĩ inyuothe mũtũũraga Jerusalemu, rekei ndĩmũtaarĩrie ũhoro ũyũ; thikĩrĩriai wega ũrĩa nguuga.
15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose; seeing it is [but] the third hour of the day;
Andũ aya ti arĩĩu, ta ũrĩa mũreciiria. Rĩu nĩ thaa ithatũ tu cia rũciinĩ!
16 but this is that which hath been spoken through the prophet Joel:
Aca gũtitariĩ ta ũguo, ũhoro ũyũ nĩguo warĩtio nĩ mũnabii Joeli, akiuga atĩrĩ:
17 And it shall be in the last days, saith God, I will pour forth of my Spirit upon all flesh: And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, And your young men shall see visions, And your old men shall dream dreams:
“‘Ngai ekuuga atĩrĩ, matukũ-inĩ ma kũrigĩrĩria nĩngaitĩrĩria andũ othe Roho wakwa. Ariũ na aarĩ anyu nĩmakarathaga mohoro, Aanake anyu nĩmakonaga cioneki, nao athuuri anyu marootage irooto.
18 Yea and on my servants and on my handmaidens in those days Will I pour forth of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy.
O na ningĩ nĩngaitĩrĩria ndungata ciakwa cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja Roho wakwa matukũ-inĩ macio, nacio nĩikarathaga mohoro.
19 And I will show wonders in the heaven above, And signs on the earth beneath; Blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke:
Nĩngonania morirũ kũu igũrũ matu-inĩ, na nyonanie ciama gũkũ thĩ, cia thakame, na cia mwaki, na cia ndogo ĩkwambata.
20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the day of the Lord come, That great and notable [day]:
Riũa nĩrĩkagarũrwo rĩtuĩke nduma, naguo mweri ũtuĩke ta thakame, mbere ya mũthenya ũcio mũnene wa Mwathani ũrĩa ũrĩ riiri gũkinya.
21 And it shall be, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Na nĩgũgakinya atĩrĩ, atĩ mũndũ wothe ũgaakaĩra rĩĩtwa rĩa Mwathani nĩakahonokio.’
22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God unto you by mighty works and wonders and signs which God did by him in the midst of you, even as ye yourselves know;
“Inyuĩ andũ aya a Isiraeli, thikĩrĩriai ũhoro ũyũ: Jesũ wa Nazarethi aarĩ mũndũ waheanĩtwo nĩ Ngai kũrĩ inyuĩ na ũndũ wa ciama, na morirũ, na cionereria, iria Ngai aaringire gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu agereire harĩ we, o ta ũrĩa inyuĩ ene mũũĩ.
23 him, being delivered up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye by the hand of lawless men did crucify and slay:
Mũndũ ũyũ aaneanirwo moko-inĩ manyu, kũringana na ũrĩa Ngai aatuĩte na ũrĩa aamenyete o mbere; na inyuĩ, mũteithĩrĩirio nĩ andũ arĩa aaganu, mũkĩmũũraga na njĩra ya kũmwambithia mũtharaba-inĩ.
24 whom God raised up, having loosed the pangs of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
No Ngai akĩmũriũkia kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ, akĩmuohora ruo-inĩ rwa gĩkuũ, tondũ gũtingĩahotekire atũũre anyiitĩtwo nĩkĩo.
25 For David saith concerning him, I beheld the Lord always before my face; For he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:
Tondũ Daudi oigire atĩrĩ ũhoro wake: “‘Nĩndonaga Mwathani arĩ mbere yakwa hĩndĩ ciothe. Tondũ arĩ guoko-inĩ gwakwa kwa ũrĩo-rĩ, ndingĩenyenyeka.
26 Therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced; Moreover my flesh also shall dwell in hope:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngoro yakwa nĩnjanjamũku, naruo rũrĩmĩ rwakwa rũgakena; o naguo mwĩrĩ wakwa nĩũgũtũũra ũrĩ na mwĩhoko,
27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul unto Hades, Neither wilt thou give thy Holy One to see corruption. (Hadēs )
tondũ ndũkandiganĩria mbĩrĩra-inĩ, o na kana ũreke ũrĩa waku Mũtheru abuthe. (Hadēs )
28 Thou madest known unto me the ways of life; Thou shalt make me full of gladness with thy countenance.
Nĩũũmenyithĩtie njĩra cia muoyo; nĩũkanjiyũria gĩkeno ndĩ harĩa ũrĩ.’
29 Brethren, I may say unto you freely of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us unto this day.
“Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, no ndĩmwĩre ndĩ na ũũmĩrĩru atĩ ithe witũ Daudi nĩakuire na agĩthikwo, na mbĩrĩra yake ĩrĩ o gũkũ nginya ũmũthĩ ũyũ.
30 Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins he would set [one] upon his throne;
Nowe aarĩ mũnabii na nĩamenyete atĩ Ngai nĩamwĩrire na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩagaikarĩria ũmwe wa rũciaro rwake gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene.
31 he foreseeing [this] spake of the resurrection of the Christ, that neither was he left unto Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Hadēs )
Nĩ ũndũ nĩamenyete ũhoro ũcio mbere, nĩaririe ũhoro wa kũriũka gwa Kristũ, atĩ ndaatiganĩirio mbĩrĩra-inĩ, o na kana mwĩrĩ wake ũkĩbutha. (Hadēs )
32 This Jesus did God raise up, whereof we all are witnesses.
Ngai nĩariũkĩtie Jesũ ũcio, na ithuĩ ithuothe tũrĩ aira a ũhoro ũcio.
33 Being therefore by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye see and hear.
Kuona atĩ nĩatũũgĩrĩtio guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo kwa Ngai, na nĩamũkĩrire kĩĩranĩro kĩa Roho Mũtheru kuuma kũrĩ Ithe, nake nĩatũitĩrĩirie Roho ta ũrĩa mũrona rĩu na mũkaigua.
34 For David ascended not into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
Nĩgũkorwo Daudi ndaambatire agĩthiĩ igũrũ, no nĩoigire atĩrĩ, “‘Mwathani nĩeerire Mwathani wakwa atĩrĩ: “Ikara guoko-inĩ gwakwa kwa ũrĩo,
35 Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet.
o nginya rĩrĩa ngaatua thũ ciaku gaturwa ka makinya maku.”’
36 Let all the house of Israel therefore know assuredly, that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified.
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe a Isiraeli nĩmamenye atĩrĩ: Ngai nĩ atuĩte Jesũ, o ũcio mwambire, Mwathani na Kristũ.”
37 Now when they heard [this], they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do?
Rĩrĩa andũ maiguire ũhoro ũcio, ũkĩmatheeca ngoro, makĩũria Petero na atũmwo acio angĩ atĩrĩ, “Ariũ a Baba, twagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩka atĩa?”
38 And Peter [said] unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Nake Petero akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwĩrirei na mũbatithio mũndũ o mũndũ thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ Kristũ, nĩguo mũrekerwo mehia manyu. Na inyuĩ nĩ mũkwamũkĩra kĩheo kĩa Roho Mũtheru.
39 For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.
Kĩĩranĩro gĩkĩ nĩ kĩanyu na ciana cianyu, na andũ arĩa othe marĩ kũraya, na andũ arĩa othe Mwathani Ngai witũ ageeta moke harĩ we.”
40 And with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this crooked generation.
Akĩmataara na ciugo ingĩ nyingĩ, akĩmakaanagia; na akĩmathaitha, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mwĩhonokiei kuuma kũrĩ rũciaro rũrũ ruogomu.”
41 They then that received his word were baptized: and there were added [unto them] in that day about three thousand souls.
Andũ arĩa meetĩkĩrire ndũmĩrĩri yake makĩbatithio, na mũthenya ũcio makĩongerereka andũ ta ngiri ithatũ.
42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread and the prayers.
Nao nĩmerutĩire kũgwatĩria ũrutani wa atũmwo, na ngwatanĩro-inĩ, na ũhoro-inĩ wa kwenyũrana mũgate, na kũhooya.
43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
Andũ othe makĩiyũrwo nĩ guoya, nao atũmwo magĩĩka morirũ maingĩ, na makĩringa ciama.
44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
Andũ arĩa othe meetĩkĩtie maarĩ hamwe, na nĩmagwatanagĩra indo ciothe.
45 and they sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all, according as any man had need.
Makĩendia ithaka ciao na indo ciao, makaheaga mũndũ o wothe kũringana na bata wake.
46 And day by day, continuing stedfastly with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread at home, they took their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
O mũthenya nĩmagomanaga hekarũ-inĩ. Nĩmenyũraga mũgate marĩ mĩciĩ-inĩ yao, na makarĩĩanĩra marĩ na gĩkeno, na marĩ na ngoro theru,
47 praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to them day by day those that were saved.
makagoocaga Ngai, na magetĩkĩrĩka kũrĩ andũ othe. Nake Mwathani nĩongagĩrĩra thiritũ-inĩ yao andũ arĩa maahonokaga o mũthenya.
