Acts 11
1 And the apostles and the brothers who are in Judea heard that the nations also received the word of God,
Jinanji’ o Firàheñeo naho o roahalahy nanitsike Iehodào te nandrambe o tsaran’ Añahareo ka o kilakila ondatio.
2 and when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of circumcision were contending with him,
Aa ie nionjoñe mb’e Ierosaleme mb’eo t’i Petera, le tiniñe’o mpiamy sinavatseio
3 saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men, and ate with them!”
ami’ty hoe: Nihovae’o ty anjomba’ o tsy nisavareñeo naho nitraofa’o fikama.
4 And Peter having begun, set [it] forth to them in order, saying,
Fe natalili’ i Petera am’iereo boak’ am-baloha’e naho nampalangese’e ami’ty filaha’e ty hoe:
5 “I was in the city of Joppa praying, and I saw in a trance a vision, a certain vessel coming down, as a great sheet by four corners being let down out of Heaven, and it came to me;
Izaho nilolok’ an-drova e Jopa añe, le niaroñaroñe vaho nalangesan-draha. Nitreako ty raha hoe lamba bey nizotso boak’ andindìñe ey, nazetse an-kotso-efatse le navotrak’ amako.
6 at which having looked steadfastly, I was considering, and I saw the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the sky;
Ie hinareko naho nañotsohotso, le naheoko t’ie biby aman-tomboke efa’ ty tane toio naho biby hako naho raha milaly vaho voron-tioke.
7 and I heard a voice saying to me, Having risen, Peter, slay and eat;
Le tsinanoko ty fiarañanañañe nanao amako ty hoe, Miongaha, Petera, Mandentà vaho mikamà.
8 and I said, Not so, Lord, because anything common or unclean has at no time entered into my mouth;
Le hoe iraho: Sondo’e, Rañandria! Mbe lia’e tsy nizilihan-draha faly ndra tsy malio ty am-bavako ao.
9 and a voice answered me a second time out of Heaven, What God cleansed, you do not declare common.
Fe nanoiñe fañindroe’e i fiarañanañañe andindìñey ami’ty hoe: Ko atao faly ze fa nilioven’ Añahare.
10 And this happened three times, and again was all drawn up to Heaven,
Le hene nanoeñe in-telo ka izay vaho nitariheñe mb’andindiñe eñe.
11 and behold, immediately, three men stood at the house in which I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me,
Tsatok’ añ’ anjomba nitobohako eo amy zao t’indaty telo nahitrik’ amako boak’ e Kaisaria añe.
12 and the Spirit said to me to go with them, doubting nothing, and these six brothers also went with me, and we entered into the house of the man,
Le nisaontsie’ i Arofoy ty hindrezako lia fa tsy hivazobazotse. Nitrao-dia amako ka o roahalahy eneñe retiañe te nizilik’ añ’ anjomba’ indatiy.
13 he also declared to us how he saw the messenger standing in his house, and saying to him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
Natoro’e anay t’ie nahaisake anjely nijohañe añ’anjomba’e ao nanao ty hoe: Ampisangitrifo ondaty homb’e Jopa añe hikanjy i Simona atao Petera,
14 who will speak sayings by which you will be saved, you and all your house.
ie ty hinday tsara ama’o maharombak’ azo naho o añ’anjomba’o iabio.
15 And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as also on us in the beginning,
Ie vaho nitaroñeko, le nivotrak’ am’ iereo i Arofo Masiñey manahake taman-tikañe am-baloha’e.
16 and I remembered the saying of the LORD, how He said, John indeed immersed in water, but you will be immersed in the Holy Spirit;
Le nitiahiko ty nisaontsie’ i Talè ty hoe: Toe nampilipotse an-drano ao t’i Jaona, fe halipotse amy Arofo Masiñey nahareo.
17 if then God gave to them the equal gift as also to us, having believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, I—how was I able to withstand God?”
Aa kanao natolon’ Añahare iareo i falalàñe natolo’e antika niato am’ Iesoà Norizañeiy, le ia v’irahoo, te hanebañe an’ Andrianañahare?
18 And they, having heard these things, were silent, and were glorifying God, saying, “Then, indeed, God also gave conversion to life to the nations.”
Ie nahajanjiñe izay, le nianjiñe iereo, nibango an’Andrianañahare, ami’ty hoe: Fa tinolon’ Añahare fisolohoan-ko aman-kaveloñe ka o kilakila ondatio!
19 Those, indeed, therefore, having been scattered abroad, from the tribulation that came after Stephen, went through to Phoenicia, and Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to none except to Jews only;
Ie amy zao, fa nañavelo sikal’ e Foinika añe naho e Kiprosy añe naho mb’e Antiokia mb’eo ondaty naparatsà’ i fampisoañañe ty amy Stefana zay nitsey i tsaray, tsy ama’ ia naho tsy amo Jiosio avao.
20 and there were certain of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who having entered into Antioch, were speaking to the Hellenists, proclaiming good news—the Lord Jesus,
Fe ty ila’ iereo, o nte Kiprosy naho nte Kirenèo, ro niheo mb’e Antiokia mb’eo nitalily amo Grikao nitaroñe Iesoà Talè.
21 and the hand of the LORD was with them, a great number also, having believed, turned to the LORD.
Nañimba iareo ty fità’ i Talè, le maro ty niantoke vaho nitolik’ amy Talè.
22 And the account was heard in the ears of the assembly that [is] in Jerusalem concerning them, and they sent forth Barnabas to go through to Antioch,
Nizilik’am-pijanjiña’ i Fivory e Ierosaleme añey ty talily ty am’ iereo, vaho nahitri’ iereo mb’ Antiokia añe t’i Barnabasy.
23 who, having come, and having seen the grace of God, was glad, and was exhorting all with purpose of heart to cleave to the LORD,
Ie pok’ añe, naho niisa’e ty hasoan’ Añahare, le niehake vaho hene nosihe’e ho lili-po amy Talè an-kaampon’ arofo.
24 because he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit, and of faith, and a great multitude was added to the LORD.
Ondaty vañon-dre, lifotse i Arofo Masiñey naho fatokisañe, vaho maro t’indaty nitovoñe amy Talè.
25 And Barnabas went forth to Tarsus, to seek for Saul,
Le nionjoñe mb’e Tarsosy mb’eo re nipay i Saole;
26 and having found him, he brought him to Antioch, and it came to pass that they assembled together a whole year in the assembly, and taught a great multitude, and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
ie tendreke, le nandese’e mb’Antiokia añe. Aa le naha ritse taoñe raike iereo nifampikaoñe amy Fivoriy naho nañoke ondaty. E Antiokia ao ty namotorañe ty fikanjiañe o mpiama’eo ty hoe: Mpiami-Norizañey.
27 And in those days there came from Jerusalem prophets to Antioch,
Tamy andro rezay niheo mb’e Antiokia mb’eo ty mpitoky boak’ Ierosaleme añe.
28 and one of them, by name Agabus, having stood up, signified through the Spirit a great scarcity is about to be throughout all the world—which also came to pass in the time of Claudius Caesar—
Niongake ty atao Agabo, mpiam’ iereo, naho nitoroa’e añamy Arofoy te handrambañe ty tane bey toy ty san-kerè. (Le nitendrek’ amy andro’ i Klaodio mpanjaka izay).
29 and the disciples, according as anyone was prospering, determined each of them to send for ministry to the brothers dwelling in Judea,
Aa le nilahatse o mpiatoo, te songa ondaty ami’ty hahalefea’e ty hisangitri-palalàñe amo roahalahy mimoneñe e Iehodà añeo.
30 which also they did, having sent to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
Nanoe’ iereo, le nahitri’ iereo mb’amo mpiaoloo am-pità’ i Barnabasy naho i Saole.
