< Acts 3 >
1 Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, [being] the ninth [hour].
Gbe ɖeka le ɣetrɔ ga etɔ̃ me la, Petro kple Yohanes woyina gbedoxɔ la me be yewoado gbe ɖa abe ale si wowɔnɛ ɖaa ene.
2 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;
Esi woɖo gbedoxɔ la gbɔ la, wokpɔ ŋutsu tekunɔ aɖe si wokɔ va da ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe agbo si woyɔna be, “Agbo Nyui” la nu. Amea nye tekunɔ tso eƒe dzɔdzɔme ke, eye gbe sia gbe la, wokɔnɛ va dana ɖe agbo sia nu be wòabia nu le ame siwo yina gbedoxɔ me la si.
3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
Esi wòkpɔ Petro kple Yohanes woyina ɖe gbedoxɔa me la, edo ɣli bia wo be woana ga ye.
4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
Petro kple Yohanes trɔ kpɔe dũu, eye Petro gblɔ nɛ be, “Fɔ ta dzi nàkpɔ míaƒe ŋkume.”
5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
Ke tekunɔ la fɔ ŋku ɖe wo dzi gãa henɔ mɔ kpɔm be woana nane ye.
6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Petro gblɔ nɛ be, “Nɔvi, klosalo kple sika mele asinye o, ke nu si le asinye lae mana wò. Le Yesu Kristo, Nazaretitɔ la ƒe ŋkɔ me, tsi tsitre nàzɔ azɔli.”
7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted [him] up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.
Ale Petro do asi ɖa lé tekunɔ la ƒe alɔnu be wòatsi tsitre. Kasia tekunɔ la kpɔ be ŋusẽ ɖo yeƒe afɔ kple drikame ŋu.
8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
Ale wòti kpo, tsi tsitre hede asi azɔlizɔzɔ me. Enɔ kpo tim, nɔ zɔzɔm alea henɔ Mawu kafum, eye wòdze Petro kple Yohanes yome ge ɖe gbedoxɔ la me.
9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God:
Ame siwo katã kpɔ ame sia wònɔ zɔzɔm, nɔ Mawu kafum la
10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.
de dzesii be eyae nye ŋutsu ma si nɔa nu biam le gbedoxɔ la ƒe agbo si woyɔna be “Agbo Nyui” la nu; Woƒe nu ku, eye woƒe mo wɔ yaa le nu si dzɔ ɖe edzi la ta.
11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.
Ŋutsu si woyɔ dɔe la mía eɖokui ɖe Petro kple Yohanes ŋu kplikplikpli va ge ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe akpa si woyɔna be, Solomo ƒe Akpata la me, eye ameha la ƒo zi va wo gbɔ eye woƒe nu ku.
12 And when Peter saw [it], he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?
Esi Petro kpɔ esia la, egblɔ na wo be, “Israeltɔwo, nu ka ta nuwɔna sia wɔ nuku na mi? Nu ka ta mile mía kpɔm abe míawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋusẽ alo míaƒe kɔkɔenyenye tae míete ŋu da gbe le ame sia ŋu, ale be wòte ŋu le zɔzɔm ɖo mahã?”
13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let [him] go.
Medi be eme nakɔ na mi nyuie be Mawu si nye Abraham, Isak, Yakob kple mía tɔgbuitɔgbuiwo ƒe Mawu lae da gbe le ame sia ŋu be yeatsɔ ade bubu eƒe subɔla Yesu ŋu. Yesu si miede asi hegbe nu le egbɔ le Pilato ŋkume, togbɔ be Pilato dze agbagba ale gbegbe be yeaɖe asi le eŋu hafi.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
Miegbe nu le dzɔdzɔetɔ la kple kɔkɔetɔ la gbɔ eye miebia be wòaɖe asi le hlɔ̃dola ŋu boŋ.
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
Ɛ̃, miewu ame si nye Agbenala la gake Mawu fɔe ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome. Míawo la, míenye esia ƒe ɖaseɖilawo.
16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
“Le Yesu ƒe ŋkɔ me, to xɔse me tekunɔ sia, ame si miekpɔ, eye mienya nyuie la kpɔ dɔyɔyɔ. Yesu ƒe ŋkɔ kple xɔse si vana to eƒe ŋkɔ me lae na dɔyɔyɔ bliboe abe ale si mi katã miele ekpɔm ene.
17 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did [it], as [did] also your rulers.
“Azɔ nɔviwo, menya be nu si miewɔ ɖe Yesu ŋu la, mienya hafi wɔe o. Nenema kee nye mia nunɔlawo hã.
18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
Ke to wɔna siawo me la, Mawu na be nu siwo nyagblɔɖilawo gblɔ da ɖi be ele be Kristo la nakpe fu nenema la va eme.
19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
Ke azɔ la, nɔviwo, mitrɔ dzi me, miatrɔ ɖe Mawu ŋu, be wòatutu miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖa, eye miaxɔ fafa tso aƒetɔ la gbɔ,
20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
ne wòaɖo Kristo si nye Yesu, ame si wòtia na mi la ɖe mi.
21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. (aiōn )
Ɛ̃, abe ale si nyagblɔɖila kɔkɔewo gblɔe da ɖi xoxoxo ene la, ele be Yesu nanɔ dziƒo va se ɖe esime Mawu naɖɔ nu sia nu ɖo keŋkeŋkeŋ. (aiōn )
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
Mose hã gblɔe xoxo be, ‘Ɣeyiɣi gbɔna, esi Yehowa wò Mawu ŋutɔ aɖo nyagblɔɖila tɔxɛ aɖe ɖe mia dome, tso mia nɔviwo dome abe nye Mose pɛpɛpɛ ene. Anyo na mi be miaɖo to nu sia nu si wòagblɔ na mi,
23 And it shall come to pass, [that] every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
elabena woatsrɔ̃ ame sia ame si mase eƒe gbe, awɔ ɖe edzi o la le eƒe amewo dome.’
24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
“Vavã nyagblɔɖilawo katã, tso Samuel ŋɔli va ɖo fifia hã ƒo nu tso nu siwo le dzɔdzɔm egbegbe la ŋu.
25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
Miawoe nye nyagblɔɖila siawo ƒe dzidzimeviwo, eye nu si Mawu bla kple mia tɔgbuiwo la, miawo hã miele eme. Mawu bla nu kple Abraham be, ‘Woayra xexea me blibo la to wò dzidzimeviwo dzi.’
26 Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
Le nubabla sia ta, esi Mawu ɖo eƒe dɔla ɖe xexea me la, eɖoe ɖe mia gbɔ gbã be wòayra mi, miadzudzɔ nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ, atrɔ va Mawu gbɔ.”
