Acts 12
1 NOW about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.
उस बखत हेरोदेस राजा नै कलीसिया के कई माणसां ताहीं सताण कै मकसद तै बन्दी बणा लिया।
2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
उसनै प्रेरित यूहन्ना के भाई याकूब ताहीं तलवार तै मरवा दिया।
3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
जिब उसनै देख्या के यहूदी माणस इसतै राज्जी होवै सै, तो उसनै पतरस ताहीं भी पकड़ लिया। वे अखमीरी रोट्टी के त्यौहार के दिन थे।
4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
हेरोदेस नै उस ताहीं पकड़कै जेळ म्ह गेरया, अर चार-चार सिपाहियाँ के चार पहरया म्ह राख्या, इस विचार तै के फसह कै बाद उसनै आदमियाँ कै स्याम्ही ल्यावै।
5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.
जेळ म्ह पतरस बन्द था, पर कलीसिया उसकै खात्तर लौ लाकै परमेसवर तै प्रार्थना करण लागरी थी।
6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
जिब हेरोदेस राजा उसनै आदमियाँ कै स्याम्ही ल्याण आळा था, उस्से रात पतरस दो जंजीरां तै बंध्या होड़ दो सिपाहियाँ कै बिचाळै सोण लागरया था, अर पहरेदार दरबाजे पै जेळ की रुखाळी कररे थे।
7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
तो देक्खो, प्रभु का एक सुर्गदूत आण खड्या होया अर उस कोठड़ी म्ह चाँदणा चमक्या, अर उसनै पतरस की पासळी पै हाथ मारकै उस ताहीं जगाया अर बोल्या, “उठ, तावळ कर।” अर उसकै हाथ्थां तै बेड़ी खुलकै गिरगी।
8 And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.
फेर सुर्गदूत नै उसतै कह्या, “कमर बाँध, अर अपणे जूत्ते पहर ले।” उसनै उस्से ढाळ करया। फेर उसनै उसतै कह्या, “अपणे लत्ते पहरकै मेरै पाच्छै हो ले।”
9 And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.
वो लिकड़कै उसकै पाच्छै हो लिया, पर उसनै न्यू न्ही बेरा था के जो किमे सुर्गदूत कर रह्या सै वो साच्ची सै, बल्के न्यू समझै था के जणु मै दर्शन देखण लागरया सूं।
10 When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.
फेर वे पैहल्या अर दुसरे पहरे तै लिकड़कै उस लोहे के फाटक पै पोहचे, जो नगर की ओड़ सै। वो उनकै खात्तर अपणे-आप्पे खुलग्या, अर वे लिकड़कै एक गळी म्ह गए, अर जिब्बे ए सुर्गदूत उसनै छोड़कै चल्या गया।
11 And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
फेर पतरस नै चेत म्ह होकै कह्या, “इब मन्नै सच का बेरा पटया सै के प्रभु नै अपणा सुर्गदूत भेजकै मेरै ताहीं हेरोदेस राजा के हाथ्थां तै छुड़ा लिया, अर यहूदी अगुवां की सारी मनसा पै पाणी फेर दिया सै।”
12 And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.
न्यू जाणकै वो उस यूहन्ना की माँ मरियम कै घरां आया, जो मरकुस कुह्वावै सै। ओड़ै घणे आदमी कठ्ठे होकै प्रार्थना करण लागरे थे।
13 And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.
जिब उननै दरबाजा खटखटाया, तो रूदे नामक एक नौकराणी देखण नै आई।
14 And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.
पतरस का बोल पिच्छाणकै उसनै खुशी के मारे दरबाजा न्ही खोल्या, पर भाजकै भीत्त्तर गई अर बताया के पतरस दरबाजे पै खड्या सै।
15 And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.
उननै उसतै कह्या, “तू बावळी सै।” पर वा पूरे बिश्वास तै बोल्ली के पतरस ए सै। फेर उननै कह्या, “उसका सुर्गदूत होगा।”
16 But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.
पर पतरस खटखटान्दा ए रहया आखर म्ह उननै दरबाजा खोल्या, अर उस ताहीं देखकै हैरान होग्ये।
17 But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.
फेर उसनै उन ताहीं हाथ तै इशारा करया के बोल-बाल्ले रहवैं, अर उन ताहीं बताया के प्रभु किस ढाळ उस ताहीं जेळ तै लिकाड़ ल्याया सै। फेर बोल्या, “याकूब अर दुसरे भाईयाँ नै या बात बता दियो।” फेर लिकड़कै दुसरी जगहां चल्या गया।
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
तड़कैए जेळ के सिपाहियाँ म्ह घणी भगदड़ माचगी के पतरस कित्त गया।
19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judæa to Cæsarea, and there abode.
जिब हेरोदेस राजा नै उसकी टोहया-टाही करवाई अर न्ही मिल्या, तो पैहरेदारां की जाँच करकै हुकम दिया के वे मार दिये जावै, अर वो यहूदिया परदेस नै छोड़कै कैसरिया नगर म्ह जाकै रहण लाग्या।
20 And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country.
हेरोदेस राजा सूर अर सैदा नगर के लोग्गां तै घणा नाराज था। वे एक टोळ बणाकै उसतै मिलण आये, राजा का एक खास कर्मचारी बलास्तुस ताहीं मनाकै राजा तै मेल करणा चाह्या, क्यूँके राजा के देश म्ह उनकै देश का पालन-पोषण होवै था।
21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.
खास दिन पै हेरोदेस राजा राजसी-बाणा पहरकै सिंहासन पै बेठ्या, अर उन ताहीं खुलास्सा करण लाग्या।
22 And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.
फेर आदमियाँ नै रुक्का मारया, “यो तो माणस का न्ही ईश्वर का बोल सै।”
23 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
उस्से घड़ी प्रभु कै एक सुर्गदूत नै जिब्बे आकै हेरोदेस राजा ताहीं झिड़का, अर वो कीड़े पड़कै मरग्या। क्यूँके उसनै परमेसवर की महिमा कोनी करी,
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
पर परमेसवर का वचन बढ़दा अर फैलदा गया।
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.
जिब बरनबास अर शाऊल नै अपणी सेवा पूरी कर ली तो यूहन्ना जो मरकुस कुह्वावै था, गेल्या लेकै यरुशलेम नगर तै बोह्ड़े।
