Acts 12
1 Around this time King Herod began to persecute some members of the church.
Nene nkoni kube Hirudus ugowe taa acara kitene namon ale na iwa di anang kilarin nlira anan wulakauta nani.
2 He had James, John's brother, executed by sword.
A wa molu Yakubu ku gbanan Yohana nin kusangali.
3 When he saw that the Jews were pleased by this, he had Peter arrested too. (This was during the Feast of Unleavened Bread.)
Na ayene imone ntaa Ayahudawe mang, anyaa cindu kitin Bitrus ku tutung, kone wadi kubin nborodin salin yeast.
4 After having Peter arrested, he threw him in prison, with four squads of four soldiers each to guard him. He planned to have Peter brought out for a public trial after the Passover.
Na akifoghe, ataghe nanya kilari licin, na anang ncaa anit likure nin kutocin din ucaa me. A wadi nin su ada ninghe nanya nanit iwa malu ubukin Paska.
5 While Peter was kept in prison the church prayed earnestly to God for him.
Bara nani iwa ceu Bitrus ku nanya kutii licin, bara nani iwa tizughe nlira nanya kutii nlira midya udu kiti Kutelle.
6 The night before Herod was to have him put on trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, chained to each of them, and with guards at the door keeping watch.
Udu ukurtunun nkuiye na ima nutunghe ninkutike Bitrus wadin moro kiitik nanang ncaa me naba. Itereghe nin ninyeng iba anan caa kibulunghe nyenju kilari licine.
7 Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared, and a light shone in the cell. The angel shook Peter awake, saying “Quick! Get up!” The chains fell from his wrists,
Gono kadura Kutelle daa kiti me, nkanang nin daa nanya kutiiye, akpeu Bitrus ku likot afyaghe anin woro, ““Fita mass.” Iyenghe nin deu nacara me.
8 and the angel told him, “Get dressed, and put on your sandals.” So he did. Then the angel told him, “Put on your coat and follow me.”
Gono kadura Kutelle woroghe, “Shoono imoon fe nin nakpatak fe.” Bitrus ta nafo na ibelinghe ba. Gono kadura Kutelle woroghe, “Shoono kulutuk ku dya fe udofini.”
9 So Peter followed the angel out. He didn't realize that what the angel was doing was actually happening—he thought he was seeing a vision.
Bara nani Bitrus dofino gono kadura Kutelle udu udas. Na awa yiru imon ile na gono kadura Kutelle ntaaghe wa di kidegenere ba, a wadin su sa adi namoron wuiyari.
10 They passed the first and second sets of guards, and came to the iron gate that led into the city. This opened for them by itself. They went out and down the street, when suddenly the angel left him.
Na ikata kibulun kin funu nin kin ba, idaa kibulun nikora kaa na kipira nanya kagbirel kibulunghe puuno usamme, inuzu inyaa udu libau, gono kadura Kutelle nyaa a sunghe kikane.
11 When Peter came to his senses, he said, “Now I realize this really happened! The Lord sent an angel to rescue me from Herod's power, and from everything that the Jewish people had planned.”
Na Bitrus nzinto, a woro, “Nene nyino Kutelle ntuu gono kadure me ada tu cui nanya nacaran Hirudus, nin kpilizu unanzang na Yahudawa.”
12 Now that he was conscious of what had happened, Peter went to the house of Mary, the mother of John Mark. Many believers had gathered there, and were praying.
Na ayinno nani, adaa ngan Maryamu unan Yohana ule na lisa lin ba me wa di Markus; anang yinu nin Kutelle gbardang wadi ku idin nlira.
13 When he knocked on the gateway door, a servant girl called Rhoda came to open up.
Na a reu kibulunghe, nkung kubura kucin lisa me Rhoda da amada kpanghe.
14 But recognizing Peter's voice, in her excitement she didn't open the door. Instead she ran back inside shouting, “Peter's at the door!”
Na ayinno liwuin Bitrus, bara liburi liboo na ayino upunu kibulunghe ba; akpila nin cum udu nanya kutiiya; a benle nani au Bitrus yisin kibulung.
15 “You're mad!” they told her. But she kept on insisting it was true. So they said, “It must be his angel.”
I woroghe, “Kibinai fe nwuluara so.” Ame dirtino nduu nanere, I woro “unang kadura mine.”
16 Peter continued knocking. When they did eventually open the door, they saw it was him, and were totally shocked.
Bara nani Bulus leu ubun nfoo kibulunghe, na inin da punoo kibulunghe, itene amere umamaki kifo nani.
17 Peter held up his hand for them to be quiet, and then explained to them how the Lord had led him out of the prison. “Let James and the brothers know about this,” he told them, and then left to go somewhere else.
Bitrus lirina nin nacara me au iti tik, anin belle nani inda na Kutelle nnutunghe nanya kilari licin, a woro, “Benleng ile imoone kitin Yakubu nin kagisin linwana.” Anin nyaa udu nkon kusari.
18 When daylight came the soldiers were totally confused as to what had happened to Peter.
Na kitin shanta, manyardan madya wa fita nanya nanang ncaa kilari licine sa iyanghari nse Bitrus ku.
19 Herod had a thorough search made for him, but he couldn't be found. After interrogating the guards, Herod ordered that they should be executed. Then Herod left Judea and went to stay in Caesarea.
Na Hirudus npiziraghe na ayeneghe ba, a tiro anang ncaa we aworo na imolu nani. Anin nyaa unuzu Yahudiya udu Ukasariya adi soo kikane.
20 Now Herod had become furious with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They sent a joint delegation to see him and managed to win Blastus, the king's personal assistant, over to their side. They pleaded for peace with Herod because they were dependent on the king's territory for food.
Hirudus wa nana ayi nin nanitin Taya nin Sidon. I doo kiti me ligowe iresa Blastus, unan buunung ngowe, a buun nani, I pizira lisosin limang bara na imonli mine wa nucu ngangowere.
21 When the day came for their appointment with the king, Herod put on his royal robes, sat on his throne, and gave a speech to them.
Nlong liri Hirudus shono Imoon tigowe ada soo kitene kutet tigowe, anin benle nani uliru.
22 The audience shouted in response, “This is the voice of a god, not that of a man!”
Anite taa ntet I woro, “Lole liwui Kutelleari na lin nitari ba.”
23 Immediately the angel of the Lord struck him down, because he did not give God the glory. He was consumed by worms and died.
Kitene gono kadura Kutelle penghe bara na a wa zazin Kutelle ba; ishung wa lighe a kuu.
24 But the word of God spread, and more and more people believed.
Uliru Kutelle kuno kang unin maka kiti.
25 Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem once they had finished their mission, taking John Mark with them.
Na Barnabas nin shawulu nsaa unuzun Urshalima, naimala kadura mine; I yira Yohana ku ule na lisa limba me wadi Markus.
