Acts 9
1 But Saul, still breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, came to the high priest
ama shawulu, wa a si gbre que ni mri ko bi hu bacia, hi ni nikon firist
2 and asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues, so that if he found any who were of the way, both men and women, he might bring [them] bound to Jerusalem.
nda ka mye'e du nhavunvu ni du njihi ni tra u bre ni Damascus, don anita katon biwa babi nko a, ni lilon ko mmba, ka vu ba lo njiye ni Urishilima.
3 But as he was journeying, it came to pass that he drew near to Damascus; and suddenly there shone round about him a light out of heaven,
Niwa a si zren nihi, a ye weiweire ni Damascus ilu kpan a kri bwu kpan kawu, ilua rhi ni shului;
4 and falling on the earth he heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why dost thou persecute me?
wa akurhoku hi meme nda wo ilan ni tre niwu ndi “Shawubu, shawulu, a ngye sa wu tsra me ni ya?”
5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he [said], I am Jesus, whom thou persecutest.
Shawulu, a sa ndi “wu nha, Baci?” U Baci a tre ndi “A hi me Yesu, wa wusi tsra me ni ya;
6 But rise up and enter into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
ama lunde, ri hi ni mi gbu'a ba lha kpewa wutia niwu.”
7 But the men who were travelling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but beholding no one.
Ndhi wa basia zren ni shawulu, ba k'ma ki whie me, nda wo lan tre a, ama nda na toh ndioria.
8 And Saul rose up from the earth, and his eyes being opened he saw no one. But leading [him] by the hand they brought him into Damascus.
Shawulu alu ni meme'a nda niwa u shishi'a ti buwu ana toh kpe na, mle ba vuu njiriwo ri ni Damascus.
9 And he was three days without seeing, and neither ate nor drank.
A ti ri tra hamm'a ni to kpan, nda na rhi na nda na so na.
10 And there was a certain disciple in Damascus by name Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, [here am] I, Lord.
Nikima, nimi Damascus, vrekoma ri a he, wa ndema hi Ananiya. Baci a hlawu ni ra ndi “Ananiya”, A tre ndi “Igy mi he yi Bachi”
11 And the Lord [said] to him, Rise up and go into the street which is called Straight, and seek in the house of Judas one by name Saul, [he is] of Tarsus: for, behold, he is praying,
Baci a lhawu ndi, “Lunde, nid hi ni kon wa ba yo ndi kritrime, ni ko Yahuda, myeba ndhi wu Tarsus ri wa ndema hi Shawulu, a si bre Rji.
12 and has seen [in a vision] a man by name Ananias coming in and putting his hand on him, so that he should see.
A toh ni ra' andi ndi ri nde Ananiya a si ye nda si sa wo ni wau ni tu don du to bubu ngari”
13 And Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many concerning this man how much evil he has done to thy saints at Jerusalem;
Ama Ananiya a sawu ndi “Baci, mi wo ni nyu ndhi gbugbu'u nitu gu yi, iri kpatimeme wa a ti tsatsra ndhime ni Urishilima.
14 and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call upon thy name.
Aye ni hugon wu niko firist du ye vu ko nha ni wayi wa ani yo ndeme'a lo”.
15 And the Lord said to him, Go, for this [man] is an elect vessel to me, to bear my name before both nations and kings and [the] sons of Israel:
Ama Baci a lhawu di “Hi, mi chuti kpewundu mi, ni du nji ndemu hi ni biwabana to me na, nibi niko tuchi, baba mir Israila.
16 for I will shew to him how much he must suffer for my name.
Mi tsro u du toh bibi ya wa aniti nitu ndema”.
17 And Ananias went and entered into the house; and laying his hands upon him he said, Saul, brother, the Lord has sent me, Jesus that appeared to thee in the way in which thou camest, that thou mightest see, and be filled with [the] Holy Spirit.
Ananiya a lu vunkon nda ka ri ni ko'a. Ni sawo nituma, a tre ndi “Vayi Shawulu, Bachi yesu, wa a tsro tuma niwu ni kon niwa wu sia ye'a, a tonme du kpa kpan yame mba ruhu tsratsra duri niwu”.
18 And straightway there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he saw, and rising up was baptised;
Harime, ukperi to kpakpla ikle ba rhukulhe rhi ni shishi Shawulu, wa a kri kpa to Bulus a lu duba ti baptisma niwu.
19 and, having received food, got strength. And he was with the disciples who [were] in Damascus certain days.
Wa ari biri u gbegblenma a k'ma ye ni wu A son niba mirko bi hu'a ni Damascus wu bran vi.
20 And straightway in the synagogues he preached Jesus that he is the Son of God.
Rhiniki a lu si d'bu ni bla tre yesu nimi tra wu bre Baci, nda ni lha nd wawuyi a vren Rji.
21 And all who heard were astonished and said, Is not this he who destroyed in Jerusalem those who called on this name, and here was come for this purpose, that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?
Biwa ba woowua ba bwunyu yo who nda tre ndi “Ana guyi wa vu biwa ba yo ndeyi ni Urushilima na? A ye ni wa vu balo njini nu nikon Firist.
22 But Saul increased the more in power, and confounded the Jews who dwelt in Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.
Gbegblen Shawulu asi bran nitu nitu nda kpa Yahudawa bi son ni Damascus k'ma chon nitu wa a du ndhi mla toh ndi Yesu a wawuyi hi Kristi
23 Now when many days were fulfilled, the Jews consulted together to kill him.
Niwa ba kai vi gbugbu'u, yahudawa ba zontu ni wa nkon wa ba zu nda wuu'a.
24 But their plot became known to Saul. And they watched also the gates both day and night, that they might kill him;
Shawulu a toh kpewa ba si son ti niwu. Ba ki si gben kikle nkontra gbua, ni rhi mba ni chun don duba wuu.
25 but the disciples took him by night and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
Amm Mirko bi hu'a ba ban'u ni chu, nda ka yo grji zu ni kpagonka gbu'a, ni mi sisen.
26 And having arrived at Jerusalem he essayed to join himself to the disciples, and all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
Niwa a ye ri ni Urishilima, Shawulu anata ri nha ni mirko bi hu'a, ama wawu mba ba kluu, nda na kpanyme ndi wawu ngame a vrenko wuhu na.
27 But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles, and related to them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken boldly in the name of Jesus.
Amma Barnaba a ban u njihi ni manzaniba, nda lha bawu ndi Shawulu a to Bachi ni nkon u Baci a tre niwu. mba wa hi ni damascu, Shawulu a tre hamma ni sisiri ni nde Yesu.
28 And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem,
A he ni ba ri bi rhu kagon Urishilima. A sia tre ni gbegblen suron (Hamma ni sisiri) ni nde Baci yesu.
29 and speaking boldly in the name of the Lord. And he spoke and discussed with the Hellenists; but they sought to kill him.
Nda sisenyu ni Yahudawa bi helenenci ama ba kia wa nko u wuu.
30 And the brethren knowing it, brought him down to Caesarea and sent him away to Tarsus.
Niwa mir vayiba ba mla wo kima, ba njiwu grhiye ni Kaisariya nda ka tru hi ni Tarsus.
31 The assemblies then throughout the whole of Judaea and Galilee and Samaria had peace, being edified and walking in the fear of the Lord, and were increased through the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
Niki, ikilisiya kagon wu Judiya, galili mba Samaria ba kpa sii nda si guci ni ndu mba ni mi zren u sisiri. baci, mba wu son piame wu ruhu tsatsra, Ikilisiya asi bran ni blamba.
32 Now it came to pass that Peter, passing through all [quarters], descended also to the saints who inhabited Lydda.
Naki, Bitrus a zrenzuni gbungblu kima wami a grjika ri ni tsatsra ndi bi Rji wa ba ki ni gbu Lidda.
33 And he found there a certain man, Aeneas by name, who had been lying for eight years upon a couch, who was paralysed.
Niki a to guri wa bayo ndema ndi Iniyasu wandi azi kru nitu bla ma ti se tandra nitu a heni lilo chan ngble.
34 And Peter said to him, Aeneas, Jesus, the Christ, heals thee: rise up, and make thy couch for thyself. And straightway he rose up.
Bitrus a tre nimu ndi Iniyasu, yesu Kristi a chu lilo wru ni wu. Lukri ndi mla bla me ti” mle a lukri ni zande,
35 And all who inhabited Lydda and the Saron saw him, who turned to the Lord.
wawu ndhi bi son ni Lidda mba sorona ba toh yu'a nda k'ma ye ni Baci.
36 And in Joppa there was a certain female disciple, by name Tabitha, which being interpreted means Dorcas. She was full of good works and alms-deeds which she did.
Ni gbu Ayafa vrenko wuhuri, wandi ndema hi Tabitha (wandi ba k'ma sran ndi Dorcas)” Iwayi a ta ti kpi bi ndidi nda ta zo bi ya' gbugbuu.
37 And it came to pass in those days that she grew sick and died; and, having washed her, they put her in [the] upper room.
A he ni vi baki, a ku kru kpa nda que niwa ba ngla kpama, ba ban'u ka yo ni tra wu koshu.
38 But Lydda being near to Joppa, the disciples having heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him, beseeching him, Thou must not delay coming to us.
Lidda a he weiweire ni yafa mir ko ba bana wo nda Bitrus he niki, ba ton ndhi ha ni wu, nda ni breu “ye nita gbagbla.
39 And Peter rising up went with them, whom, when arrived, they brought up into the upper chamber; and all the widows stood by him weeping and shewing him the body-coats and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
Bitrus alunde huba. Niwa a ye ri'a ba njiwu hi ni tra wu koshu'a, u mmba be k'bo ba baki whi niwu nda si yi, nda ni tsro gbawrunklon baba zeni wa Dorcas a wran bawu niwa a he niba'a.
40 But Peter, putting them all out, and kneeling down, prayed. And, turning to the body, he said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes, and, seeing Peter, sat up.
Bitrus a dubarhu dinko ni tra'a, nda kuqugbarhu nda bre, nda k'ma ya ikmoa nda tre ndi, “Tabitha, Lunde” wa kri bwu shshi nda to Bitrus, nda luson.
41 And having given her [his] hand, he raised her up, and having called the saints and the widows, presented her living.
Bitrus a n'me wo nuu nda azu hon zi zande, nda niwa a yo tsatsra ndhi bi Rjiba ye baba mmba bi k'bea, a kau naba ni sisren.
42 And it became known throughout the whole of Joppa, and many believed on the Lord.
Kagon yafa ikpe yi a zren kagon, ndahi gbugbuu ba kpanyme ni Baci.
43 And it came to pass that he remained many days in Joppa with a certain Simon, a tanner.
Nituki Bitrus a son vi gbugbuu ni yafa, ni gu ri wa ba yo nde ma ndi Siman, wu tindu ntani.
