Acts 12
1 And about that time, Herod the king put forth his hands to do evil to certain of those of the Assembly,
Linu mwezo inako Simwine Heroda avali kusebelisa inguzu zakwe kusumina vava kuzwila mwikeleke mukuti avasukulule.
2 and he killed James, the brother of John, with the sword,
Abehayi Jakovo mwache wa Joani cha mukwale.
3 and having seen that it is pleasing to the Jews, he added to lay hold of Peter also—and they were the days of the Unleavened [Bread]—
Kuzwaho chinga bona kuti zisangisa majuda, nichazwila hansu nikusumina Pitorosi naye. Linu ayo avali mazuva achikwa chisena mulungo.
4 whom also having seized, he put in prison, having delivered [him] to four squads of four soldiers to guard him, intending to bring him forth to the people after the Passover.
Hmana kumusumina, nicha mubika mwitolongo linu nicha bika zikwata zone za masole kumu mamela; Avali kuzeza kumuleta kubatu kumasule Epaseka haimana.
5 Peter, therefore, indeed, was kept in the prison, and fervent prayer was being made by the Assembly to God for him,
Linu Pitorosi ava bwikitwe mwitolongo, Imi balumeli kana ba bali kusiya kumu kumbilila kwa Ireeza mwikereke.
6 and when Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night was Peter sleeping between two soldiers, having been bound with two chains, guards were also keeping the prison before the door,
Izuva lichilila Heroda avakuya ku kumuzwisa hanze. Awo masiku aswana Pitrosi avalele hakati kamasole bovere, nasumwinwe ichaini; vaganteli habusu bya chiyazo niba mamele itolongo.
7 and behold, a messenger of the LORD stood by, and a light shone in the buildings, and having struck Peter on the side, he raised him up, saying, “Rise in haste,” and his chains fell from off [his] hands.
Muvone, Iñiloyi lya Simwine inakozana chillya libonahalisa, linu mu moni chiwa munika mwizuvo yetolongo. chilya vakula Pitrosi he mbali niku muvusa,”'buke chakulitahanela' Imi ichaini chizawa kumayaza akwe.
8 The messenger also said to him, “Gird yourself, and bind on your sandals”; and he did so; and he says to him, “Cast your garment around and follow me”;
Iñiloyi chilyawamba kwali nichinilyati, lizwatike zizwato, Imi zwate nimakatulo” Pitrosi cha chita vulyo. Iñiloyi chi lyati kwali, zwate zizwato za hanze unichilile
9 and having gone forth, he was following him, and he did not know that it is true that which is done through the messenger, and was thinking he saw a vision,
Linu Pitrosi niche chilila Iñoliyi ni kuzwa haze, kana abezi kuti zipangahala zakusakusima zilipanga Iñiloyi, Abakutele uvwene ipono,
10 and having passed through a first ward, and a second, they came to the iron gate that is leading into the city, which opened to them of its own accord, and having gone forth, they went on through one street, and immediately the messenger departed from him.
Hava hitilila mugateli we intazi ni wa buveli, Nichibakeza kumulyango wesipi ubakuya mwitolopo; nichi we yaluka uwo wine. nichi bazwa haze nikuya mu mungwangwa, Iñiloyi nichi lyamusiya haho.
11 And Peter having come to himself, said, “Now I have known of a truth that the LORD sent forth His messenger, and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and all the expectation of the people of the Jews”;
Linu Pitrosi chinga volelwa mano, chawamba kuti,” hanu chabusakusima chine ziva Simwine aba tumini Iñoloyi lyakwe ni kwiza kuni sumununa mu mayaza a Heroda, mane nizintu ziva va livelele vantu va majuda.
12 also, having considered, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John, who is surnamed Mark, where there were many thronged together and praying.
“Hamana kuzeza izii, Nicha yenda kuzubo ya Maria inyina wa Joani izina livesi ba vali njiva Mareka; vangi vazumina baba kungene momo nivakwete kurapera.
13 And Peter having knocked at the door of the porch, there came a girl to listen, by name Rhoda,
Chinga ngongota ha mulyango werapa, muhikana wamukazana wezina lya Roda hakeza kukwi tava.
14 and having known the voice of Peter, from the joy she did not open the porch, but having run in, told of the standing of Peter before the porch,
Halemuha kuti izwi njilya Pitrosi, kuzwililila kuku sanga chakangwa kwiyalula mulyango; kuhita, nicha tilila muzubo; nicha kava wambila kuti Pitrosi uzimene hamulyango;
15 and they said to her, “You are mad”; and she was confidently affirming [it] to be so, and they said, “It is his messenger”;
Linu nichi vanta kwali,' umbulumuka,” Nicha tundamena kuti njimona bovulyo. Nichi vata kwali, “Iñiloloyi lyakwe.”
16 and Peter was continuing knocking, and having opened, they saw him, and were astonished,
Linu Pitrosi nicha zwila havunsu niku ngongota, chinga veyalula mulyango, Nichi vamubona niku komokwa,
17 and having beckoned to them with the hand to be silent, he declared to them how the LORD brought him out of the prison, and he said, “Declare these things to James and to the brothers”; and having gone forth, he went on to another place.
Pitrosi nicha vatondeza kama yaza kuti vantotole. Linu nicha vawambila Simwine mwava muzwisikizi mwitolongo. Ni chati, “mukawambile inzi zintu Jakovo niva mwakwe,” kuzwaho nicha vasiya nikuya kuchimwi chivaka.
18 And day having come, there was not a little stir among the soldiers what then was become of Peter,
Linu chinga lyazwa izuva. Nichi kwava nikulyangana kungi mukati kamasole, kuamana nichi vapangahali kwa Pitrosi.
19 and Herod having sought for him, and having not found, having examined the guards, commanded [them] to be led away to punishment, and having gone down from Judea to Caesarea, he was abiding [there].
Kumasule Heroda chinga mungana linu kana aba muwani, NIchavuza ba ngatela nikuha itaelo kuti vehayiwe. Kuzwa aho ni chazwa mwa Judea nikuya mwa Sesarea niku ke kala mwateni.
20 And Herod was highly displeased with the Tyrians and Sidonians, and with one accord they came to him, and having made a friend of Blastus, who [is] over the bed-chambers of the king, they were asking peace, because of their country being nourished from the king’s;
Linu Heroda nicha vengela vantu va Tire ni Sidoni. Nichi vayenda hamwina kwali. Nichi vaka wola Blasto mutusi wa Simwine, mukuti avatuse. Kuzwaho nichiva kumbila ikozo, Mukuti ikanda yavo ivatambuli zilyo zayo zizwa kwa simwine weyo ikanda.
21 and on a set day, Herod having clothed himself in kingly clothing, and having sat down on the judgment seat, was making an oration to them,
Mwizuva livatomwa Heroda nicha zwata zizwato zakwe zavu simwine nikwikala hachihuna chavu Simwine; Nicha wamba kuvali.
22 and the populace were shouting, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
LInu batu chiva ngalumuka, “nikuta kuti ilzwi lya muzimu, isinyi lya muntu;”
23 And immediately a messenger of the LORD struck him in return for that he did not give the glory to God, and having been eaten of worms, he expired.
Pona hahaho Iñiloyi lya Simwine chilya mukava, Mukuti kana avahi Ireeza ikanya; Nicha liwa masene niku nfwa.
24 And the word of God grew and multiplied,
Imi izwii lye Ireeza chilya kula ni njihekana.
25 and Barnabas and Saul turned back out of Jerusalem, having fulfilled the ministry, having also taken John with [them], who was surnamed Mark.
Linu Barnabasi ni Saule chinga vamana musevesi mwa Jerusalema, nichi vabolela haho, nivahinda Joani, Izina livesi va vali njiva Mareka.
