Acts 8
1 And Saul consented to his death, and at that time, there was a great persecution against the Church which was at Hierusalem, and they were all scattered abroad thorowe the regions of Iudea and of Samaria, except the Apostles.
Shawulu a nyme ngame ni kwu ma, nitu ki nivi baki, kikle watu ni ya a vu Ekklisiya wa a he ni Urishilima, u biwa ba kpatre Rji nda nyme niwu, ba vra ga ni gbungblu wu Judea mba Samaria, nda don manzaniba meyen.
2 Then certaine men fearing God, caried Steuen amongs them, to be buried, and made great lamentation for him.
Ndhi bi hu ngyengre me ba ban Istifanus ka rhu nda son ndayi kpukpeme.
3 But Saul made hauocke of the Church, and entred into euery house, and drewe out both men and women, and put them into prison.
Ama Shawulu a kri gbangban nda ni so kpa Ikklisiya meme. Ata ri ni ko niko nda gbi lilon baba mmba, nda tru ba sru niko u tro.
4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad, went to and from preaching the worde.
Na kima me biwa ba kpa nyeme nda vera hi kankan ba zren zita bla lan trea.
5 Then came Philip into the citie of Samaria, and preached Christ vnto them.
Filibus a grjhi hi ni kikle gbu wu Samaria ndaka d'bu bla nibawu nitu kristi.
6 And the people gaue heed vnto those things which Philippe spake, with one accorde, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.
Kpaandhi ba ki si sren ton ni tre wa Filibus a si bla'a, ni yo sron ni bubu riri, ba wowu nda toh kpi bi tsro-ya wa'a ti'a.
7 For vncleane spirits crying with a loud voyce, came out of many that were possessed of them: and many taken with palsies, and that halted, were healed.
Meme brji ba rhurhi ni mi ndhi gbugbuu wa ana hon son ni mimba, nda ni yi ni kri gro nikle lan, ndhi bi lilo chon gble, ndana zrenna ba kpa si kpamba.
8 And there was great ioy in that citie.
Nituki ndhi bi gbuu'a ba ngri kpukpome.
9 And there was before in the citie a certaine man called Simon, which vsed witchcraft, and bewitched the people of Samaria, saying that he himselfe was some great man.
Ni gbukima, ndhiri a he wandi ba yo ndema ndiSiman, wa ata tsro ka, nda ni kandhi tsi shishi nda gyur. Bi Samaria du ba baniwu ti ndriori ninkon.
10 To whome they gaue heede from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is that great power of God.
Wawu ndhi bi Samaria, rhini bi tsitsa hi ni bi ninkon mba, bata sren ton niwu ndatre ndi “Gu yi a gbengblen irjhi wa ba yo Azangbengble”
11 And they gaue heed vnto him, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.
Ba yo ton ni trema nitu wa rhi ni dedewa azi tsibashishi nidu ka'a wa a ta tsro ba.
12 But assoone as they beleeued Philip, which preached the thinges that concerned the kingdome of God, and the Name of Iesus Christ, they were baptized both men and women.
Ama niwa ba kpa tre wa Filibus a sia d'bu lha nitu tre ndindi wu Irji mba nde Yesu. Kristi, ba vu ba ti baptisma, lilon baba mmba wawumbawu.
13 Then Simon himselfe beleeued also and was baptized, and continued with Philippe, and wondred, when he sawe the signes and great miracles which were done.
Siman ngame a kpanyme. Hu gon baptisma ma, a kha ta son zuni Filibus mu. Niwa a toh kpi bi tsro-ya baba kikle ndu wa a si'ahe, a bwu nguyo ni w'ho.
14 Nowe when the Apostles, which were at Hierusalem, heard say, that Samaria had receiued the worde of God, they sent vnto them Peter and Iohn.
Niwa manzani ba ni Urishilima ba wo ndi Samaria ba kpa lantre Irji, ba ton Bitrus mba Yonana hi ni ba.
15 Which whe they were come downe, prayed for them, that they might receiue the holy Ghost.
Niwa ba grjhiye, ba bre Rji ni bawu, ndi du ba kpa Ruhu Tsatsra.
16 (For as yet, hee was fallen downe on none of them, but they were baptized onely in the Name of the Lord Iesus.)
Nitu, ye niton kima, Ruhu tsatsra na ri he wu grjhiri ni ba, bana kpa baptisma ni nde Bachi Yesu megen.
17 Then layd they their handes on them, and they receiued the holy Ghost.
Mle Bitrus mba Yohana ba sa wo nitumba, U ba kpa ruhu tsatsra'a.
18 And when Simon sawe, that through laying on of the Apostles hands the holy Ghost was giuen, he offred them money,
Niwa Siman a to ndi ba nu Ruhu Tsatsra niwa ba manzani ba ba sawo nitumba, a chu nkle ni nuba.
19 Saying, Giue mee also this power, that on whomsoeuer I lay the handes, he may receiue the holy Ghost.
A tre ndi “Ne gbengle kima ngame, wandi mita sawo nitu ko nha, wa ka kpa Ruhu Tsatsra”
20 Then saide Peter vnto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou thinkest that the gift of God may be obteined with money.
Ama Bitrus a lha niwu ndi “Du nkle silva me qu timeme ni wu, nitu wu ya ndi wu iya kpa Kyauta Irji ni nklen.
21 Thou hast neither part nor fellowship in this businesse: for thine heart is not right in the sight of God.
Wuna he ni rabo ni kpeyina, don suron me na he bi ni irji na.
22 Repent therefore of this thy wickednes, and pray God, that if it be possible, the thought of thine heart may be forgiuen thee.
Nitu kima, U ka don meme dri me ndi bre Baci, nidu anita kpayeme ani wrulhe, meme kpe wa wuna yo suron ni wu'a.
23 For I see that thou art in the gall of bitternes, and in the bonde of iniquitie.
Mi to ndi wu he ni mi ntson lo suron mba ni nkon meme.
24 Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of these things which ye haue spoken, come vpon me.
Siman k'ma sawu ndi “bre Bachi nimu, du ko kpe riri wa wu tre na hon nitumuna.
25 So they, when they had testified and preached the worde of the Lord, returned to Hierusalem, and preached the Gospel in many townes of the Samaritans.
Niwa ba bla kpe wa ba to'a nda tre lantre Bacia, Bitrus mba Yohanna ba k'ma ni hi Urishilima, nda zi bla trendindi ni kauyuka gbu bi Samaria.
26 Then the Angel of the Lord spake vnto Philip, saying, Arise, and goe towarde the South vnto the way that goeth downe from Hierusalem vnto Gaza, which is waste.
Zizan, malaika Baci a tre ni Filibus ndi “Lunde ndi hu nkon wa grjhi hi kogbo, wa a kru grjhi rhini Urishilima hi ni Gaza (Nkon yi hi ni hammada).
27 And hee arose and went on: and beholde, a certaine Eunuche of Ethiopia, Candaces the Queene of the Ethiopians chiefe Gouernour, who had the rule of all her treasure, and came to Hierusalem to worship:
A lunde nda ku nko hi. Nikima aka zontu ni guri, wa a rhini Ethiopia, dandandu wa wu kikle ma'aji u Candace Samariya wu Ethiopia. Wawu yi kpi bi yo suron wa'a bana he ni woma. Ana ye ni Urishilima nda ni ye hi sujada.
28 And as he returned sitting in his charet, he read Esaias the Prophet.
A k'ma tahi nda son ni ng'ma wu hon ma nda sia karanta tre anabi Ishaya.
29 Then the Spirit said vnto Philip, Goe neere and ioyne thy selfe to yonder charet.
Ruhu Rji a lha ni Filibus ndi “hi ni bubu wa a hea, ni hi kri nha ni ng'ma hu henma”.
30 And Philip ranne thither, and heard him reade the Prophet Esaias, and said, But vnderstandest thou what thou readest?
Niki filibus a tsutsu hi niwa, nda wo a sia bla tre anabi Ishaya, nda mye “ka U mla to kpewa u si bla'a?”.
31 And he saide, Howe can I, except I had a guide? And he desired Philip, that he would come vp and sit with him.
Wa a kri sa wu ndi, “Mi tihe hama ni du ndior ye tsro me?” A yo Filibus du hon hi ni wu niti ng'ma, nda hi kuson nha niwu.
32 Nowe the place of the Scripture which he read, was this, Hee was lead as a sheepe to the slaughter: and like a lambe domme before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth.
Zizan bubu vunvu wu lantre wa lgu Ethiopia a sia bla ana to yi, “Ba vu gbron si hi to nt'ma wa ba jiwu hi han, mba toh vivre nt'ma wa a kri ni gbamgbi ni mi biwa ba si le niwu'a niki ana bwu nyuma.
33 In his humilitie his iudgement hath bene exalted: but who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
Ni mi yama, gatre wu janji ama iba ban meme no nha ni to bla nitu biwa baka rhurhini wu, hpu ma. Ba ban vrima rhurini meme.
34 Then the Eunuche answered Philippe, and saide, I pray thee of whome speaketh the Prophet this? of himselfe, or of some other man?
Wame Dandaudu a mye Filibus ndi, “mi bre'u, hla mu, anabi si tre nitu nha? nitu kpamamu ka nitu ndiori kan?
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same Scripture, and preached vnto him Iesus.
Filibus a lu si tre, rhi ni lantre yi wu vunvu tre Rji nda bla ndidi tre nitu Yesu niwu.
36 And as they went on their way, they came vnto a certaine water, and the Eunuche said, See, here is water: what doeth let me to be baptized?
Niwa ba kihi ni nkon, ba ye tsra ni bubu ma ri'u Dandaudu a tre ndi “Toh, imma he yi, naye ni zuudu ti baptisma nimu na?
37 And Philippe said vnto him, If thou beleeuest with all thine heart, thou mayest. Then he answered, and saide, I beleeue that that Iesus Christ is that Sonne of God.
Chiche vunvu bi sen wu bi ma, bana he ni ndan na. Filibus a tre ndi, “wuta kpanyeme ni suron me ki ti baptisma niwu “Dandaudu a k'ma sawu ndi mi kpanyme ndi Yesu Kristi a hi vren irji.
38 Then he commanded the charet to stand stil: and they went downe both into the water, both Philip and the Eunuche, and he baptized him.
Niki, dandaudu a du ngma kukri. Ba grjhi hi ni mi mma. Filibus mba dandauda, U Filibus a ti baptisma niwu.
39 And assoone as they were come vp out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the Eunuche sawe him no more: so he went on his way reioycing.
Niwa ba hon wru rhi ni mi mma'a, ruhu Rji a nzu Filibis hi kado, u dandaudu ana la too ngana, ama a vu nkoma si hi nda ngiri.
40 But Philippe was found at Azotus, and he walked to and from preaching in all the cities, till he came to Cesarea.
Filibus aka rhu kri ni azotus, nda zren zu ni gbungblu ki, nda ni d'bu bla tre ndidi ni gbu biki, har nda ka kri ni caesaria.
