< Acts 12 >

1 Now at the same time, king Herod extended his hand, in order to afflict some from the Church.
Leleꞌ naa, mane Herodes tao doidꞌoso neu Lamatuaꞌ Yesus atahori Nara ruma.
2 Then he killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
Ana parenda atahori fo reu tati risa Yakobis. Yakobis naa, Yohanis aꞌa na.
3 And seeing that it pleased the Jews, he set out next to apprehend Peter also. Now it was the days of Unleavened Bread.
Yakobis mamate na, tao malangga Yahudi ra rala nara ramahoꞌo. Herodes nita ma, ana boe fua-fuaꞌ a. De nandaa no fai monaeꞌ fo rae Feta Roti Nda Tao Bibit Sa, ana denu atahori reu humu Petrus fai.
4 So when he had apprehended him, he sent him into prison, handing him over into the custody of four groups of four soldiers, intending to produce him to the people after the Passover.
Ara humu rala e, de tao bui rala neu. Boe ma ara dudꞌu soldꞌadꞌu tanaꞌ haa fo ranea bangganggatiꞌ Petrus hatuꞌ-rerelon. Tanaꞌ esa naa, atahori haa. Tungga Herodes hihii na, ana nae naꞌetuꞌ Petrus dedꞌea na sia atahori hetar mata na, mete ma basa fefetas naa.
5 And so Peter was detained in prison. But prayers were being made without ceasing, by the Church, to God on his behalf.
Dadꞌi leleꞌ Petrus mia bui rala, Lamatuaꞌ Yesus atahori Nara hule-oꞌe nda ramaeꞌtu sa, roꞌe Lamatualain mete-seꞌu e.
6 And when Herod was ready to produce him, in that same night, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, and was bound with two chains. And there were guards in front of the door, guarding the prison.
Mbilaꞌ neu ma, Herodes nae naꞌetuꞌ Petrus dedꞌeat na mia atahori hetar mata nara. Tetembaꞌ naa, ara paꞌa Petrus no rante rua mia bui rala. Ana sungguꞌ mia soldꞌadꞌu rua taladꞌa nara. Ma soldꞌadꞌu ruma ranea sia lelesu mataꞌ.
7 And behold, an Angel of the Lord stood near, and a light shined forth in the cell. And tapping Peter on the side, he awakened him, saying, “Rise up, quickly.” And the chains fell from his hands.
Aiboiꞌ ma, Lamatualain ate Na mia sorga nambariiꞌ sia naa, ma kama a naronda manggareloꞌ. Ana fafae Petrus nae, “Petrus, e! Fela lai-lai!” Boe ma rante besiꞌ a etu mia lima na neuꞌ ena.
8 Then the Angel said to him: “Dress yourself, and put on your boots.” And he did so. And he said to him, “Wrap your garment around yourself and follow me.”
Basa ma, ate a denu e nae, “Olu badꞌu ma no laopei ma!” Petrus olu basa ma, ate a denu e fai oi, “Olu badꞌu deaꞌ ma, fo tungga au leo!”
9 And going out, he followed him. And he did not know this truth: that this was being done by an Angel. For he thought that he was seeing a vision.
Boe ma Petrus tungga e, ma lao hela bui a. Te Petrus nae neꞌo, eni nalamein. Te onaꞌ o, dadꞌi taꞌo naa.
10 And passing by the first and second guards, they came to the iron gate which leads into the city; and it opened for them by itself. And departing, they continued on along a certain side street. And suddenly the Angel withdrew from him.
Ara seli mamana naneaꞌ kaesan no karuan ma, ara losa lelesu besiꞌ a. Lelesu a soi ao na, de ruꞌa se dea reu tungga dalaꞌ mana kota neu. Aiboiꞌ ma, Lamatualainꞌ ate Na lao hela Petrus neu naa.
11 And Peter, returning to himself, said: “Now I know, truly, that the Lord sent his Angel, and that he rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the people of the Jews were anticipating.”
Ate naa mopo ma, Petrus medꞌa nae, “Memaꞌ tebꞌe! Ia naa au feꞌe bubꞌuluꞌ ena. Lamatualain tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ haitua ate Na fo mboꞌi au mia Herodes lima na. Lamatualain tao taꞌo naa, fo atahori Yahudi ra dudꞌuꞌa deulakaꞌ na afiꞌ dai au.”
12 And as he was considering this, he arrived at the house of Mary, the mother of John, who was surnamed Mark, where many were gathered and were praying.
Basa ma, Petrus nisiꞌ inaꞌ esa ume na. Inaꞌ a, naran, Maria. Eni, Yohanis maman. Yohanis nara fea na, Markus. Sia naa atahori hetar raꞌabꞌue hule-oꞌe, roꞌe Lamatualain tulu-fali Petrus no dedꞌeat na.
13 Then, as he knocked at the door of the gate, a girl went out to answer, whose name was Rhoda.
Petrus losa naa boe ma, ana dedeu ma nggasi mia lelesu ineꞌ a. Boe ma ate inaꞌ esa, nara na Rode, neu nakaloloik seka mana nemaꞌ naa.
14 And when she recognized the voice of Peter, out of joy, she did not open the gate, but instead, running in, she reported that Peter stood before the gate.
Ana rena Petrus hara na boe ma, nahine neuꞌ ena. Namahoꞌo seli, de lai-laiꞌ rala neu, nafadꞌe atahori ra nae, “We! Petrus rii-rii sia deaꞌ!” Te ana liliiꞌ de nda soi lelesu fee Petrus sa.
15 But they said to her, “You are crazy.” But she reaffirmed that this was so. Then they were saying, “It is his angel.”
Te ara rataa rae, “Hokoꞌ to ma! Afiꞌ andiaoꞌ taꞌo naa!” Te ana labꞌan nae, “Hokoꞌ! Tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Petrus hara na! Ana sia deaꞌ naa!” Te ara subꞌa-subꞌa a rae, “Mbei ma, atahori naa, Lamatualain ate Na mia sorga mana nanea Petrus.”
16 But Peter was persevering in knocking. And when they had opened, they saw him and were astonished.
Ara feꞌe ralelea, te Petrus akaꞌ a nggasi nakandondooꞌ a, losa ara reu soi lelesu a. Soi rala ma, ara titindindi, huu naa, Petrus.
17 But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he explained how the Lord had led him away from prison. And he said, “Inform James and those brothers.” And going out, he went away to another place.
Petrus lalaes lima na fo ara nenee. Boe ma ana dui taꞌo bee de Lamatualain soi eni mia bui a. Basa de, ana denu se nae, “Mi mifadꞌe basa ia ra neu Yakobis no dedenu feaꞌ ra.” Boe ma, Petrus lao nisiꞌ mamana feaꞌ.
18 Then, when daylight came, there was no small commotion among the soldiers, as to what had happened concerning Peter.
Mbila fefetu na, soldꞌadꞌu mana maneaꞌ ra mete te Petrus nese ena. Ara bingun ma ramatau seli, huu nda ritaꞌ rae dei fo saa dadꞌi neu sira sa.
19 And when Herod had requested him and did not obtain him, having had the guards interrogated, he ordered them led away. And descending from Judea into Caesarea, he lodged there.
Herodes bubꞌuluꞌ ma, ana parenda se reu sangga Petrus. Te nda randaa ro e sa. Boe ma Herodes denu paresaꞌ soldꞌadꞌu mana maneaꞌ ra. Paresaꞌ basa ma, ana denu tao risa basa se. Basa boe ma, Herodes lao hela Yudea, de leo sia kota Kaisarea.
20 Now he was angry with those of Tyre and Sidon. But they came to him with one accord, and, having persuaded Blastus, who was over the bedchamber of the king, they petitioned for peace, because their regions were supplied with food by him.
Leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori mia kota rua, naran Tirus ma Sidꞌon. Ara hii hasa nanaat sia mane Herodes nusa na. Te dooꞌ ena, maneꞌ a namusuꞌ no se. De ara rala ralaꞌ sa rae reu badameꞌ ro e. Ara here nononggoꞌ esa fo reu randaa ro Herodes sia Kaisarea. Losa naa ma, reu raꞌabꞌue ro atahori sa sia maneꞌ a ume na, naran Blastus. Eni malangga sia maneꞌ a ume panggat na. Ara rala haraꞌ sa ro Blastus, fo ana dadꞌi mana kokoe-nanasiꞌ nara, fo soi dalaꞌ fee se randaa ro Herodes.
21 Then, on the appointed day, Herod was clothed in kingly apparel, and he sat in the judgment seat, and he gave a speech to them.
Basa de, Herodes naꞌaheiꞌ simboꞌ se, de raꞌetuꞌ rala faiꞌ sa fo randaa. Faiꞌ naa, ara tao fefetas monaeꞌ. Herodes olu badꞌu panggat na, de endoꞌ mia kadera parenda na. Boe ma ana olaꞌ no se.
22 Then the people were crying out, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
Atahori mana sia naa ra rena hara na, ma ara koa botiꞌ e rae, “Rena haraꞌ naa! Ia nda atahori haran sa! Haraꞌ ia, meulaun seli. De laꞌi songgo e!”
23 And immediately, an Angel of the Lord struck him down, because he had not given honor to God. And having been consumed by worms, he expired.
Aiboiꞌ ma, Lamatualain ate Na esa mia sorga fee Herodes hedꞌis esa, huu ana simbo kokoaꞌ ena, ma seti hendi Lamatualain. De lalatiꞌ ra raa Herodes aon losa mate.
24 But the word of the Lord was increasing and multiplying.
No basa manadadꞌiꞌ naa ra, Lamatualain Dudꞌui Malole Na boe nenedꞌui-bꞌenggaꞌ, ma atahori mana tungga Lamatuaꞌ Yesus Dala Masodꞌa Na boe ramaheta.
25 Then Barnabas and Saul, having completed the ministry, returned from Jerusalem, bringing with them John, who was surnamed Mark.
Barnabas no Saulus rendi basa atahori Antiokia ra tutulu-fafali nara Yerusalem reu ma, ara baliꞌ risiꞌ Antiokia. Ara ro ana soruꞌ esa, naran Yohanis. Te ara o roꞌe e, rae Markus boe.
