< Acts 12 >

1 Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the assembly.
Lan yogu o baddciamo Herodi bo cuo u Tienu niba ke wangi ba fala.
2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
O kpaa Saaki San nijua yeni ki jugsiega i.
3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Kepha also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
Wan bo la ke li mangi Jufinba wan cedi ban cuo Piali mɔ. Li bo tie jaama dan nni, ya jaama ke bi ŋmani kpanu yaali ki dabinli.
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 Passover to bring him forth to the people.
Wan bo cuo o, o bo kuani o ti yonmdi dieli nni o bo puogi sojenba caga na ke guudi o. O bo bua pagi jaama po n pendi yo wan sieni o bi niba siiga nni ki buni o.
5 Kepha therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the assembly unto YHWH for him.
Piali bo luo li yonmdieli nni ama u Tienuniba taanli bi jaandi o po.
6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Kepha was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
Ya daali ke Herodi maali wan ba tieni o maama, Piali bo dua sojenba bonmlie siiga nni ki gɔa. ki luagi i kudisiseli ke soje bonlis se u bulñɔbu po ki guu li yonmdieli.
7 And, behold, the angel of YHWH came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Kepha on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
U Tienu maleki bo kua ki sedi li yonmdieli ke mi yenyenma yendi, k o pua piali ki fiini o ke maadi: «fii tonma» ke i kudisiseli ñani o nugu nni ki baa.
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.
Ke maleki maadi o; «la a tiadi ki taa a taacaadi» ke Piali tieni. k o guani maadi o: La a gbadli ke ŋɔdi.
9 And he went out, and followed him; and knew not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.
Ke Piali ŋɔdi maleki ki ñani. O ba bani ke maleki n tie yaala tie mɔni. o bo maali ke li tie dangdi
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.
Ya yognu ke bi pendi cincinli ya guudika yeni liolo kani; bi ji bo pundi u bulñɔbu kani yaali tieni yeni ti kudi ki caa u dogu nni. ke li luodi li bá bi nunga nni, ke bi jiidi u sanu po ke maleki ji ŋa Paili.
11 And when Kepha was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that YHWH 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.
Piali n bo ti guani o kani ya yogu k o maadi: «N nuake yeni i mɔnmɔni ke u tienu sɔni omaleki k o baa ñani n Herodi nui nni yeni jufunba n bo guu yaala.»
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.
Wan bo tieni li, o bo gedi Mali deni, San yua ke bi bo yi o Marki naá. Yaaba bo pia li dandanli bo taani li kani ki jaani.
13 And as Kepha knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.
Wan bo pua li ganli ya yognu o jifaano bá ke bi yi o Rodi n cua ke ba luodi
14 And when she knew Kepha's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Kepha stood before the gate.
Wan bandi Piali nialu ya yognu o pali mangi k o sundi kaa luodi li ganli ki sani ki pan maadi yaaba ye deni nni ke Piali u bulŋɔbujabu kani.
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.
Bi bo yedi o: «a gaadi yoo» Ama ke gɔ maadi ke li tie mɔnmɔni. Ke bi maadi: «o maleki i»
16 But Kepha continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.
Ama ke Piali gɔ li tun ki pua li ganli ya yognu ke bi ti luodi li ganli ke bi la' o ke li yaalidi ba.
17 But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how YHWH 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.
Ke Piali ka waani u nuu ke ban ya ŋmini ke maadi ba u Tienu n tieni maama ki ñani o ti yonbidi dieli nni. Ke o maad: «waani mani li bona Saaki yeni o naataani.» Lan puoli po yo k o gedi u kaantianu.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Kepha.
Lan bo fandi ya yogu u yangmadigu bo ye soje nba siiga nni kelima baa bo bani yaala tieni Piali.
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 Judaea to Caesarea, and there abode.
Herodi n bo kpaani o kaa la'o, buali sojenba, ki cabi ke ban kpaa'o. K o jiidi jude Sesare nni ki ye li kani.
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.
Horodi pali bo beni Tiri yeni Sidoni niba po. ke bi tani cua o kani. Ki waani Blasi o badciamo baanlo ke wan todi ba ban dɔnli yeni o bado kelima bi jiema kuli bo ña lan bado ya dogu.
21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.
Herodi bo bili dayenli ki lani o badtiadi ki kali o bali kalikanu po, o bo maadi ki maadi ba mi maama.
22 And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a mighty one, and not of a man.
ke bi niwulgu yigni: ne tie u Tienu nialu laa tie nulo yaali ka!»
23 And immediately the angel of YHWH smote him, because he gave not YHWH the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the spirit.
Li yognu k o yonmdaano meleki cua ki pua 'o kelima o bo k teni u Tienu ti kpiagidi. Asidibila n bo pundi o po ke kpaa o.
24 But the word of YHWH grew and multiplied.
Ama u Tienu maama bo yadbidi ki pugni.
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.
Barnabasi yeni Soli bo gbeni bi tuonli Jerusalemi. Bi bo ñani li po ki tugi San yua ke biyi o Marc.
