Acts 11
1 And the apostles and the brethren who were in Judaea heard that the nations also had received the word of God;
Jinanji’ o Firàheñeo naho o roahalahy nanitsike Iehodào te nandrambe o tsaran’ Añahareo ka o kilakila ondatio.
2 and when Peter went up to Jerusalem, they of the circumcision contended with him,
Aa ie nionjoñe mb’e Ierosaleme mb’eo t’i Petera, le tiniñe’o mpiamy sinavatseio
3 saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised and hast eaten with them.
ami’ty hoe: Nihovae’o ty anjomba’ o tsy nisavareñeo naho nitraofa’o fikama.
4 But Peter began and set forth [the matter] to them in order, saying,
Fe natalili’ i Petera am’iereo boak’ am-baloha’e naho nampalangese’e ami’ty filaha’e ty hoe:
5 I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in an ecstasy I saw a vision, a certain vessel descending like a great sheet, let down by four corners out of heaven, and it came even to me:
Izaho nilolok’ an-drova e Jopa añe, le niaroñaroñe vaho nalangesan-draha. Nitreako ty raha hoe lamba bey nizotso boak’ andindìñe ey, nazetse an-kotso-efatse le navotrak’ amako.
6 on which having fixed mine eyes, I considered, and saw the quadrupeds of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of the heaven.
Ie hinareko naho nañotsohotso, le naheoko t’ie biby aman-tomboke efa’ ty tane toio naho biby hako naho raha milaly vaho voron-tioke.
7 And I heard also a voice saying to me, Rise up, Peter, slay and eat.
Le tsinanoko ty fiarañanañañe nanao amako ty hoe, Miongaha, Petera, Mandentà vaho mikamà.
8 And I said, In no wise, Lord, for common or unclean has never entered into my mouth.
Le hoe iraho: Sondo’e, Rañandria! Mbe lia’e tsy nizilihan-draha faly ndra tsy malio ty am-bavako ao.
9 And a voice answered the second time out of heaven, What God has cleansed, do not thou make common.
Fe nanoiñe fañindroe’e i fiarañanañañe andindìñey ami’ty hoe: Ko atao faly ze fa nilioven’ Añahare.
10 And this took place thrice, and again all was drawn up into heaven;
Le hene nanoeñe in-telo ka izay vaho nitariheñe mb’andindiñe eñe.
11 and lo, immediately three men were at the house in which I was, sent to me from Caesarea.
Tsatok’ añ’ anjomba nitobohako eo amy zao t’indaty telo nahitrik’ amako boak’ e Kaisaria añe.
12 And the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting. And there went with me these six brethren also, and we entered into the house of the man,
Le nisaontsie’ i Arofoy ty hindrezako lia fa tsy hivazobazotse. Nitrao-dia amako ka o roahalahy eneñe retiañe te nizilik’ añ’ anjomba’ indatiy.
13 and he related to us how he had seen the angel in his house, standing and saying [to him], Send [men] to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
Natoro’e anay t’ie nahaisake anjely nijohañe añ’anjomba’e ao nanao ty hoe: Ampisangitrifo ondaty homb’e Jopa añe hikanjy i Simona atao Petera,
14 who shall speak words to thee whereby thou shalt be saved, thou and all thy house.
ie ty hinday tsara ama’o maharombak’ azo naho o añ’anjomba’o iabio.
15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them even as upon us also at the beginning.
Ie vaho nitaroñeko, le nivotrak’ am’ iereo i Arofo Masiñey manahake taman-tikañe am-baloha’e.
16 And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, John baptised with water, but ye shall be baptised with [the] Holy Spirit.
Le nitiahiko ty nisaontsie’ i Talè ty hoe: Toe nampilipotse an-drano ao t’i Jaona, fe halipotse amy Arofo Masiñey nahareo.
17 If then God has given them the same gift as also to us when we had believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who indeed was I to be able to forbid God?
Aa kanao natolon’ Añahare iareo i falalàñe natolo’e antika niato am’ Iesoà Norizañeiy, le ia v’irahoo, te hanebañe an’ Andrianañahare?
18 And when they heard these things they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then indeed God has to the nations also granted repentance to life.
Ie nahajanjiñe izay, le nianjiñe iereo, nibango an’Andrianañahare, ami’ty hoe: Fa tinolon’ Añahare fisolohoan-ko aman-kaveloñe ka o kilakila ondatio!
19 They then who had been scattered abroad through the tribulation that took place on the occasion of Stephen, passed through [the country] to Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one but to Jews alone.
Ie amy zao, fa nañavelo sikal’ e Foinika añe naho e Kiprosy añe naho mb’e Antiokia mb’eo ondaty naparatsà’ i fampisoañañe ty amy Stefana zay nitsey i tsaray, tsy ama’ ia naho tsy amo Jiosio avao.
20 But there were certain of them, Cyprians and Cyrenians, who entering into Antioch spoke to the Greeks also, announcing the glad tidings of the Lord Jesus.
Fe ty ila’ iereo, o nte Kiprosy naho nte Kirenèo, ro niheo mb’e Antiokia mb’eo nitalily amo Grikao nitaroñe Iesoà Talè.
21 And [the] Lord's hand was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
Nañimba iareo ty fità’ i Talè, le maro ty niantoke vaho nitolik’ amy Talè.
22 And the report concerning them reached the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go through as far as Antioch:
Nizilik’am-pijanjiña’ i Fivory e Ierosaleme añey ty talily ty am’ iereo, vaho nahitri’ iereo mb’ Antiokia añe t’i Barnabasy.
23 who, having arrived and seeing the grace of God, rejoiced, and exhorted all with purpose of heart to abide with the Lord;
Ie pok’ añe, naho niisa’e ty hasoan’ Añahare, le niehake vaho hene nosihe’e ho lili-po amy Talè an-kaampon’ arofo.
24 for he was a good man and full of [the] Holy Spirit and of faith; and a large crowd [of people] were added to the Lord.
Ondaty vañon-dre, lifotse i Arofo Masiñey naho fatokisañe, vaho maro t’indaty nitovoñe amy Talè.
25 And he went away to Tarsus to seek out Saul.
Le nionjoñe mb’e Tarsosy mb’eo re nipay i Saole;
26 And having found [him], he brought him to Antioch. And so it was with them that for a whole year they were gathered together in the assembly and taught a large crowd: and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
ie tendreke, le nandese’e mb’Antiokia añe. Aa le naha ritse taoñe raike iereo nifampikaoñe amy Fivoriy naho nañoke ondaty. E Antiokia ao ty namotorañe ty fikanjiañe o mpiama’eo ty hoe: Mpiami-Norizañey.
27 Now in these days prophets went down from Jerusalem to Antioch;
Tamy andro rezay niheo mb’e Antiokia mb’eo ty mpitoky boak’ Ierosaleme añe.
28 and one from among them, by name Agabus, rose up and signified by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine over all the inhabited earth, which also came to pass under Claudius.
Niongake ty atao Agabo, mpiam’ iereo, naho nitoroa’e añamy Arofoy te handrambañe ty tane bey toy ty san-kerè. (Le nitendrek’ amy andro’ i Klaodio mpanjaka izay).
29 And they determined, according as any one of the disciples was well off, each of them to send to the brethren who dwelt in Judaea, to minister [to them];
Aa le nilahatse o mpiatoo, te songa ondaty ami’ty hahalefea’e ty hisangitri-palalàñe amo roahalahy mimoneñe e Iehodà añeo.
30 which also they did, sending it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
Nanoe’ iereo, le nahitri’ iereo mb’amo mpiaoloo am-pità’ i Barnabasy naho i Saole.
