Acts 1
1 THE former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
Bifumero mi mulanyi kika, Theophilus in tok dikero Yesu ter makau la merange.
2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
Na nyime diye cii tumou yaken dii kwama. Wo kambo cine nob tomangeb cebo cidoweu yuwatangbeke.
3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
Kambo cinuwa dotangeri yadangu dorcero ciinen, ki yiromtinim dukce wo nyomkace. kume kwini naar ci dangu dorcero ciinene yi cii ker liyar kwamar
4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
Kambo ci yi kange cii yeri in yi cii, ciya dobre wursalima dila ciya ningtang nor Teero, woci yiki, “Kom nuwa fiye mi wiyeu”
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
Yiti ki, cwerke man Yahaya yucinen mwembo kin wmom, dila ayukumen mwembo ki yuwa tangbeko wucakke, kume fo kutangbo”.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Kambo cii wariyeri cin meco Kwama ki kwamawo mwa yilauti ki liyar Israila ka?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
Yi cii ki, a keno nakume nakom nyimom kan kenekowo kwama yo morbikwan durcereu.
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Dila kom yo bikwando cano yuwatangbe kwamako bou dor kumerdi, lana nyime kan yilam nob wabebkeb min mor wursalima kange mor yahudiya gwam kange samariya, yaken ciko cwile dor bitinere”.
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Ki kwama wo kwama Yesu tok kero birombem, kambo cito dii kwamatiyeri, dila cii tumco ciin yaken kico dii kwama, biloro yurangum co nuwece.
10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
Kambo cii to dikwama ciya kenti yeri, dang jang nubo yob tim kaci ki kulendo fuwor.
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
Kom nabarubbo halili, yebwi kom tirangum fo komto dii kwamatiye? wuro Yesu yaken dii kwama, kambo kom tom yamcembeu dii kwamau ayilaunyo
12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day’s journey.
Kambo cii yilau bany Zaitun cii yoten yilau wursalima wuro bidom kange wursalimau, yam kume nukkune ki dimen.
13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphæus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.
Kambo cii lameri, ciin yabken tiyak fiye cii yimtiyeu. ciin bi Bitrus, Yahaya, Yakubu, Andirawus, Filibus, Tomas Bartholomew, Matta, Yakubu bibwe Alfa Siman Yahuda bibwe Yakubu.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
Gwam ce ciin mwerkang dorceo win, kambo cii ca kaba ki kwob dilo. Matta, Maryamu wo bo Yesu kange kebcoba cii wari.
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty, )
Ki kume niwo Bitrus kweniti tiber kebceber, nubo kwini kwob toro kwini yob, yi cii.
16 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.
keb mibo nii inwi wo ticiinen kaba ciitam Yesu.
17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.
Wifo morebe lan yom dike naceu dor dike cimaneu.
18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
Niwo tenum bitine ki kemero cifiyau mor nagen bwirantum nerer cero, cin yaru wi kidor fwercero wurom, yeicero coru kale.
19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.
Nubo yimwi wursalima nuwam wo lacii cuwo fiyeco kin yicii “Akeldama” (Kiyiki fiye bwiyale).
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.
Wori cii mulange mor bifumer Zaburad Lafiyeceu ayilam kamlo adobeni ayifiyeco kange atum nangen cero.
21 Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Nawori tamnyo win mor nubo wo wari kange bo ki kwama Yesu ma doka kange cerka ceko yeu, morebe.
22 Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.
Terti ki yuka mu ngek Yahaya yakaken ciko kakukowa cii tumco binenneu yaken dii kwama a yilam, win morebe fiye tokka ker kwenkacek.
23 And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Ciin dang nubo yob Yusufu woci choti ki Barsabbas, wotak ci cho dendo ki Justus kange Matthias.
24 And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen,
Ciin kwob dilo ciiki, kwama mo mun yob ner nubere. dan nyinen wo mu coke morece yobewo.
25 That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.
Na tu nyi Yahuda fiye yahuda tiyangum meu yaken fiye”
26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Ciin mer dacendo dor ciir, dacendo yardor Matiyas dila ciin kiyeti co mor nob tomangeb Sulombo yobeu.
