< Acts 2 >
1 And when the day of Pentecost was come, they were al with one accord in one place.
Mgbe ụbọchị Pentikọọsụ ruru, ha niile zukọtara nʼotu ebe.
2 And suddenly there came a sounde from heauen, as of a russhing and mightie winde, and it filled all the house where they sate.
Na mberede, ụzụ yiri nke oke ifufe dị ike sitere nʼeluigwe bịa jupụta nʼụlọ ahụ ha nọ.
3 And there appeared vnto them clouen tongues, like fire, and it sate vpon eche of them.
Ha hụrụ ihe dịka ire ọkụ ka o kewara nọkwasị nʼisi ha nʼotu nʼotu.
4 And they were all filled with the holy Ghost, and began to speake with other tongues, as the Spirit gaue them vtterance.
Ha niile jupụtara na Mmụọ Nsọ, malite ịsụ asụsụ dị iche iche dịka Mmụọ Nsọ nyere ha ike.
5 And there were dwelling at Hierusalem Iewes, men that feared God, of euery nation vnder heauen.
Nʼoge ahụ, ọtụtụ ndị Juu ji obi ọcha na-efe Chineke nọ na Jerusalem. Ndị si na mba dị iche iche nʼokpuru eluigwe.
6 Nowe when this was noised, the multitude came together and were astonied, because that euery man heard them speake his owne language.
Igwe mmadụ gbakọtara nʼọnọdụ mgbagwoju anya mgbe ha nụrụ ụzụ ahụ, nʼihi na ha nụrụ ka ha na-asụ asụsụ nke onye ọbụla nʼime ha na-aghọta, nʼasụsụ obodo ha dị iche iche.
7 And they wondered al, and marueiled, saying among themselues, Beholde, are not all these which speake, of Galile?
Nʼoke iju anya, ha kwurịtara nʼonwe ha, “Ndị a niile na-ekwu okwu ha abụghị ndị Galili?
8 How then heare we euery man our owne language, wherein we were borne?
Gịnị mere onye ọbụla nʼime anyị ji na-anụ okwu ha na-ekwu nʼasụsụ ala anyị dị iche iche?
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the inhabitants of Mesopotamia, and of Iudea, and of Cappadocia, of Pontus, and Asia,
Ndị Patia, na ndị Midia, na ndị Elam, ndị bikwa nʼime Mesopotamịa, ndị Judịa, na ndị Kapadosia, ndị Pọntọs, na ndị Eshịa,
10 And of Phrygia, and Pamphylia, of Egypt, and of the partes of Libya, which is beside Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, and Iewes, and Proselytes,
ndị Frigia, na ndị Pamfilia, na ndị Ijipt, na ndị akụkụ Libiya nke dị Sirini nso, na ndị ọbịa si na Rom bịa
11 Creetes, and Arabians: wee hearde them speake in our owne tongues the wonderful works of God.
(ndị Juu na ndị kwere nʼokpukpe ndị Juu). Ndị Kriit na ndị Arab; anyị na-anụ okwu ha na-ekwu nʼasụsụ anyị dị iche iche banyere ọrụ ebube Chineke.”
12 They were all then amased, and douted, saying one to another, What may this be?
O juru ha anya, gbaakwa ha gharịị. Ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Gịnị ka nke a bụ?”
13 And others mocked, and saide, They are full of newe wine.
Ma ụfọdụ ndị ọzọ na-akwa ha emo na-asị, “Ndị a bụ ndị mmanya na-egbu.”
14 But Peter standing with ye Eleuen, lift vp his voice, and said vnto them, Ye men of Iudea, and ye all that inhabite Hierusalem, be this knowen vnto you, and hearken vnto my woordes.
Pita guzoro, ya na ndị ozi iri na otu ahụ welie olu gwa ọgbakọ ahụ okwu, “Ndị Juu na unu ndị bi na Jerusalem, matanụ nke a, geekwanụ ntị na ihe m na-ekwu.
15 For these are not drunken, as yee suppose, since it is but the third houre of the day.
Ọ bụghị mmanya na-egbu ndị a dị ka unu chere. Lee, ọ bụ naanị elekere itoolu nke ụtụtụ na-akụ.
16 But this is that, which was spoken by the Prophet Ioel,
Mba, nke a bụ mmezu ihe Juel onye amụma kwuru,
17 And it shalbe in the last daies, saith God, I wil powre out of my Spirite vpon al flesh, and your sonnes, and your daughters shall prophecie, and your yong men shall see visions, and your old men shall dreame dreames.
“‘Chineke sịrị, nʼoge ikpeazụ, aga m awụkwasị mmadụ niile Mmụọ m. Ụmụ unu ndị ikom na ụmụ unu ndị inyom ga-ebu amụma, ụmụ okorobịa unu ga-ahụkwa ọhụ, ndị okenye nwoke unu ga-arọ nrọ.
18 And on my seruauntes, and on mine handmaides I will powre out of my Spirite in those daies, and they shall prophecie.
Ọ bụladị ndị ohu m, nwoke ha na nwanyị nʼime ha, ka m ga-awụkwasị Mmụọ m. Ha ga-ebukwa amụma.
19 And I wil shew wonders in heauen aboue, and tokens in the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and the vapour of smoke.
Aga m egosi ihe ịtụnanya na mbara eluigwe, gosikwa ihe ịrịbama nʼụwa na nʼokpuru ụwa, ọbara na ọkụ na alulu anwụrụ ọkụ.
20 The Sunne shalbe turned into darkenesse, and the moone into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come.
Anyanwụ ga-agbanwe ghọọ ọchịchịrị, ọnwa ga-aghọkwa ọbara, tupu ụbọchị Onyenwe anyị abịa, bụ ụbọchị ahụ dị ukwu dịkwa ebube.
21 And it shalbe, that whosoeuer shall call on the Name of the Lord, shalbe saued.
Ọ ga-erukwa, na onye ọbụla nke na-akpọku aha Onyenwe anyị, ka a ga-azọpụta.’
22 Yee men of Israel, heare these woordes, JESUS of Nazareth, a man approued of God among you with great workes, and wonders, and signes, which God did by him in the middes of you, as yee your selues also knowe:
“Ndị Izrel, geenụ ntị nʼokwu a, Jisọs onye Nazaret bụ nwoke Chineke gosiri unu, site nʼọrụ dị ike, nʼọrụ ebube nakwa ihe ịrịbama niile nke Chineke rụrụ nʼetiti unu site nʼaka ya, dịka unu ji anya unu hụ.
23 Him, I say, being deliuered by the determinate counsell, and foreknowledge of God, after you had taken, with wicked handes you haue crucified and slaine.
Onye a ka e weere nyefee unu nʼaka site na nzube nke Chineke buru ụzọ tụọ atụmatụ ya, na dịka o siri mara na mbụ, ọ bụ ya ka unu gburu ma kpọgidekwa nʼobe site nʼaka ndị na-amaghị iwu.
24 Whome God hath raised vp, and loosed the sorrowes of death, because it was vnpossible that he should be holden of it.
Ma Chineke emela ka o site nʼọnwụ bilie mgbe ọ tọpụchara ihe mgbu nke ọnwụ, nʼihi na ọnwụ enweghị ike ijide ya.
25 For Dauid sayeth concerning him, I beheld the Lord alwaies before me: for hee is at my right hand, that I should not be shaken.
Devid kwuru banyere ya, “‘Ana m ahụ Onyenwe anyị ka ọ na-anọgide nʼihu m mgbe niile. Nʼihi na ọ nọ nʼaka nri m. Agaghị m ama jijiji.
26 Therefore did mine heart reioyce, and my tongue was glad, and moreouer also my flesh shall rest in hope,
Ya mere, ọṅụ jupụtara m obi, ire m na-aṅụrịkwa ọṅụ; anụ ahụ m ga-ezukwa ike nʼolileanya,
27 Because thou wilt not leaue my soule in graue, neither wilt suffer thine Holy one to see corruption. (Hadēs )
nʼihi na ị gaghị ahapụ mkpụrụobi m nʼala mmụọ, ị gakwaghị ahapụ anụ ahụ nke Onye gị dị nsọ ka ọ hụ ire ure. (Hadēs )
28 Thou hast shewed me the waies of life, and shalt make me full of ioy with thy countenance.
I mere ka m mara ụzọ nke ndụ; ị ga-emekwa ka m jupụta nʼọṅụ nʼihu gị.’
29 Men and brethren, I may boldly speake vnto you of the Patriarke Dauid, that hee is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre remaineth with vs vnto this day.
“Ụmụnna m, eji m nkwuwa okwu na-agwa unu banyere nna nna anyị Devid, bụ onye nwụrụ anwụ e lie ya. Ili ya dịkwa nʼetiti anyị taa.
30 Therefore, seeing hee was a Prophet, and knewe that God had sworne with an othe to him, that of the fruite of his loynes hee woulde raise vp Christ concerning the flesh, to set him vpon his throne,
Ma ọ bụ onye amụma marakwa na Chineke jiri ịṅụ iyi kwee ya nkwa na otu nʼime ụmụ ya ga-anọkwasị nʼocheeze ya.
31 Hee knowing this before, spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soule shoulde not bee left in graue, neither his flesh shoulde see corruption. (Hadēs )
Ebe o buuru ụzọ hụ ihe ga-eme nʼoge dị nʼihu, o kwuru banyere mbilite nʼọnwụ nke Kraịst, mgbe ọ sịrị, a hapụghị ya nʼala mmụọ; anụ ahụ ya ahụghịkwa ire ure. (Hadēs )
32 This Iesus hath God raised vp, whereof we all are witnesses.
Ọ bụ Jisọs a ka Chineke mere ka ọ dị ndụ ọzọ. Anyị niile bụkwa ndị akaebe banyere ya.
33 Since then that he by the right hande of God hath bene exalted, and hath receiued of his Father the promise of the holy Ghost, hee hath shed foorth this which yee nowe see and heare.
Ebe ọ bụ na e buliela ya elu nʼaka nri Chineke. Ọ natala Mmụọ Nsọ dịka Nna ya kwere na nkwa. Ihe a unu na-ahụ na nke unu na-anụ bụ onyinye ya ọ wụkwasịrị anyị.
34 For Dauid is not ascended into heauen, but he sayth, The Lord sayd to my Lord, Sit at my right hande,
Ọ dịghị oge Devid jiri rigoro nʼeluigwe, ma ya onwe ya sịrị, “‘Onyenwe anyị gwara Onyenwe m sị, “Nọdụ ala nʼaka nri m,
35 Vntill I make thine enemies thy footestoole.
ruo mgbe m ga-eme ndị iro gị ihe mgbakwasị ụkwụ nye ụkwụ gị.”’
36 Therefore, let all the house of Israel know for a suretie, that God hath made him both Lord, and Christ, this Iesus, I say, whome yee haue crucified.
“Ya mere, ana m eme ka ezinaụlọ Izrel niile mara nke ọma, na Chineke emeela Jisọs a onye unu kpọgidere nʼobe ka ọ bụrụ Onyenwe anyị na Kraịst.”
37 Now when they heard it, they were pricked in their heartes, and said vnto Peter and the other Apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we doe?
Mgbe ha nụrụ ihe ndị a, akọnuche ha mara ha ikpe. Ha sịrị Pita na ndị ozi ndị ọzọ, “Ụmụnna, gịnị ka anyị ga-eme?”
38 Then Peter said vnto them, Amend your liues, and bee baptized euery one of you in the Name of Iesus Christ for the remission of sinnes: and ye shall receiue the gift of the holy Ghost.
Ma Pita sịrị ha, “Chegharịanụ unu niile. Ka e mekwa unu baptizim nʼaha Jisọs Kraịst, maka mgbaghara mmehie unu. Unu ga-anatakwa onyinye nke Mmụọ Nsọ.
39 For the promise is made vnto you, and to your children, and to all that are a farre off, euen as many as the Lord our God shall call.
Nkwa a dịrị unu na ụmụ ụmụ unu na mmadụ niile nọ nʼebe dị anya, dịkwara ndị niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke ga-akpọ ka ha bịakwute ya.”
40 And with many other words he besought and exhorted them, saying, Saue your selues from this froward generation.
O jiri ọtụtụ okwu ndị ọzọ gbaa ama, ma dụọkwa ha ọdụ sị, “Sitenụ nʼetiti ọgbọ a jọrọ njọ zọpụta onwe unu.”
41 Then they that gladly receiued his word, were baptized: and the same day there were added to the Church about three thousand soules.
E mere ndị nabatara okwu ya baptizim, ha dị ihe ruru puku mmadụ atọ, a gụnyere nʼọnụọgụgụ ha.
42 And they continued in the Apostles doctrine, and fellowship, and breaking of bread, and prayers.
Ha nyefere onwe ha nʼozizi nke ndị ozi, ya na ife ofufe na ịnyawa achịcha nakwa ikpe ekpere.
43 And feare came vpon euery soule: and many wonders and signes were done by ye Apostles.
Onye ọbụla nʼime ha jupụtara na egwu, nʼihi na ndị ozi na-arụ ọtụtụ ọrụ ebube, na ihe ịrịbama dị iche iche.
44 And all that beleeued, were in one place, and had all things common.
Ndị niile kwere ekwe nọkọtara ọnụ, nwekọkwaa ihe niile ọnụ.
45 And they sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all me, as euery one had need.
Ha rere ihe ha nwere na nke ha kpatara, kenye onye ọbụla dịka mkpa ya siri dị.
46 And they continued dayly with one accord in the Temple, and breaking bread at home, did eate their meate together with gladnesse and singlenesse of heart,
Ha gara nʼihu na-ezukọta nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ikpe ekpere kwa ụbọchị. Ha na-erikọkwa nri nʼụlọ ha, nʼobi ọṅụ na ekele.
47 Praysing God, and had fauour with all the people: and the Lord added to the Church from day to day, such as should be saued.
Dịka ha gara nʼihu na-eto Chineke, ha nwetara ihuọma nʼaka ndị mmadụ. Onyenwe anyị na-atụkwasịkwara ha ndị a na-azọpụta kwa ụbọchị.
