Acts 12
1 About that time, King Herod reached out to harm some who belonged to the church.
Umfumu u Herode ahandile abhatese aKristo.
2 He had James, the brother of John, put to death with the sword.
Ahabudile uYakobo uholo wa Yohana ni panga.
3 And seeing that this pleased the Jews, Herod proceeded to seize Peter during the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
Nawalola huje Ayahudi bhasungwa wakhata nu Petro. Esho shali shipindi she mabumunda gasiga bhaponyizye ehamila.
4 He arrested him and put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by four squads of four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
Nawakhata uPetro wafunga mulumanti amapunga gane aje bhadime aje nayashila Epasaka atwale hwa bhantu.
5 So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was fervently praying to God for him.
Akristo bhamwaba nabhamvwa huje uPetro akhetwe na fungwe bhabhungana bhetehana bhonti apuute na hupuutile tee hwa Ngulubhi.
6 On the night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, with sentries standing guard at the entrance to the prison.
Isiku sasile uHerode humeje uPetro mwijela nu siku ahenzele umalaika humwefwe u Petro mwijela, alinzi bhazyungulile uPetro na mundyango bhaali abhasikali.
7 Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He tapped Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Get up quickly.” And the chains fell off his wrists.
Umalaika winza wakhozya mwijela umalaika wadamuzya u Petro waga bhuuha nanali amanyololo gabhapinyiye gagwagepa mumakhono na mumanama.
8 “Get dressed and put on your sandals,” said the angel. Peter did so, and the angel told him, “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me.”
Umalaika waga kwata evilato vyaho wa menda gaho saali ndondozyanje ane.”
9 So Peter followed him out, but he was unaware that what the angel was doing was real. He thought he was only seeing a vision.
U Petro walondozya uMalaika bhafuma hwunzi. U Petro sigaaloline aje ezyo zili lyoli agagajibha alota njozi.
10 They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron gate leading to the city, which opened for them by itself. When they had gone outside and walked the length of one block, the angel suddenly left him.
Bhashila undyango ugwa hwande bhashila nugwabhili bhafuma hundyango ugosi ugwabhalile humujini, ugwo gwali gwimajela gwahigushe gwene bhasogola bhafiha apatali, uMalaika waleha uPetro waga eshi bhalaga.
11 Then Peter came to himself and said, “Now I know for sure that the Lord has sent His angel and rescued me from Herod’s grasp and from everything the Jewish people were anticipating.”
U Petro nawamanya huje zililyolo siganjozi waga Ungulubhi atumile Umalaika wakwe huje anefwe mwijela nensubhizyo zya ayahudi.”
12 And when he had realized this, he went to the house of Mary the mother of John, also called Mark, where many people had gathered together and were praying.
U Petro wafiha munyumba ya Mariamu unyina wa Yohana yahwitwa Marko; mwabhabhangine Akristo nabhapuutaga.
13 He knocked at the outer gate, and a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer it.
Nawakhoma ehodi mundyango wabhala humwigulile ulendu umo itawa yu Roda.
14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, she was so overjoyed that she forgot to open the gate, but ran inside and announced, “Peter is standing at the gate!”
Nawamanya huje yu Petro, sigawigula undyango; washimbila wabhala abhabhuule munyumba huje yu Petro yakhoma ehodi.
15 “You are out of your mind,” they told her. But when she kept insisting it was so, they said, “It must be his angel.”
Abhamunyumba bhabisya bhagasiga yuyo umwene wakhasya huje yuyo bhaga yu malaika wakwe.”
16 But Peter kept on knocking, and when they opened the door and saw him, they were astounded.
U Petro wabhasagonga undyango pamandi bhamwigulila na bhalola bhaswiga tee. U Petro wabhapumizyia wabhalatila zyonti umalaika zyabhombile shafumizye mwijela,
17 Peter motioned with his hand for silence, and he described how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. “Send word to James and to the brothers,” he said, and he left for another place.
“Wababhuula huje mubhuule u Yakobo na holo abhamwabho, wasogola wabhala uhwamwabho.
18 At daybreak there was no small commotion among the soldiers as to what had become of Peter.
Nawasha askali bhala bhazugumiye tee hunongwa ya Petro huje afumile wele.
19 After Herod had searched for him unsuccessfully, he examined the guards and ordered that they be executed. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and spent some time there.
U Herode nawabhala humweje siga amwajile wabhabhuuzya alinzi, u Herode wamula abhabude alinzi bhaala, wasogola wabha hu Kaisaria akhale.
20 Now Herod was in a furious dispute with the people of Tyre and Sidon, and they convened before him. Having secured the support of Blastus, the king’s chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their region depended on the king’s country for food.
U Herode ali ne lyoyo na bhantu abhahu Tiro na hu Sidoni. Bhabhala bhonti palishimo. Bhakundana nu saidizi wa mfumu, bhalabha ulwetehano, ensi yabho ehapataga eshalya afume hunsi ya mfumu.
21 On the appointed day, Herod donned his royal robes, sat on his throne, and addressed the people.
Isiku limo umfumu u Herode ali nu mbungano nawakhala pitengo lyakwe elyeufumu, wayanga na bhantu.
22 And they began to shout, “This is the voice of a god, not a man!”
Abhantu bhabwaga bhaga eli lizu lya Ngulubhi sigalizu lya muntu!”
23 Immediately, because Herod did not give glory to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.
Umalaika wakhoma amachango galya muvyanda wafwa
24 But the word of God continued to spread and multiply.
Lelo izu lya Ngulubhi lyanyampana hwa bhanti bhabhinji.
25 When Barnabas and Saul had fulfilled their mission to Jerusalem, they returned, bringing with them John, also called Mark.
A Barnaba nu Paulo nabhala bhabhala hu Yerusalemu bhamwega nu Yohana yahwitwa Marko elyo lyapipwe nalyo.
