Acts 12
1 Now, at about that time, Herod the king put forth his hands to ill- treat certain members of the church;
Ní àkókò ìgbà náà ni Herodu ọba sì nawọ́ rẹ̀ mú àwọn kan nínú ìjọ, pẹ̀lú èrò láti pọ́n wọn lójú.
2 and beheaded James, the brother of John, with the sword.
Ó sì fi idà pa Jakọbu arákùnrin Johanu.
3 And when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. (This was during the days of unleavened bread.)
Nígbà tí ó sì rí pé èyí dùn mọ́ àwọn Júù nínú, ó sì nawọ́ mú Peteru pẹ̀lú. Ó sì jẹ́ ìgbà àjọ àìwúkàrà.
4 He had him arrested and thrown in prison, and put under guard of sixteen soldiers. He intended, after the Passover, to bring him forth to the people.
Nígbà tí o sì mú un, ó fi i sínú túbú, ó fi lé àwọn ẹ̀ṣọ́ mẹ́rin ti ọmọ-ogun lọ́wọ́ láti máa ṣọ́ ọ. Herodu ń rò láti mú un jáde fún àwọn ènìyàn lẹ́yìn ìrékọjá fún ìdájọ́.
5 So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer to God was made by the church for him.
Nítorí náà wọn fi Peteru pamọ́ sínú túbú; ṣùgbọ́n ìjọ ń fi ìtara gbàdúrà sọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run fún un.
6 Now when Herod was about to bring him forth, on that very night, while Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison,
Ní òru náà gan an ti Herodu ìbá sì mú un jáde, Peteru ń sùn láàrín àwọn ọmọ-ogun méjì, a fi ẹ̀wọ̀n méjì dè é, ẹ̀ṣọ́ sí wà ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà, wọ́n ń ṣọ́ túbú náà.
7 suddenly an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. Striking Peter on the side, he woke him saying, "Rise up quickly." At once the chains dropped from his hands.
Sì wò ó, angẹli Olúwa farahàn, ìmọ́lẹ̀ sì mọ́ nínú túbú; ó sì lu Peteru pẹ́pẹ́ lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́, ó jí i, ó ni, “Dìde kánkán!” Ẹ̀wọ̀n sí bọ́ sílẹ̀ kúrò ní ọwọ́ Peteru.
8 "Gird yourself," said the angel, "and put on your sandals." He did so. Then he said unto him, "Throw your cloak about you, and follow me."
Angẹli náà sì wí fún un pé, “Di àmùrè rẹ̀, kí ó sì wọ sálúbàtà rẹ!” Peteru sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀. Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Da aṣọ rẹ́ bora, ki ó sì máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn!”
9 So Peter went out, following him, but did not realize that what the angel was doing was real, but supposed that he was seeing a vision.
Peteru sì jáde, ó ń tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn; kò sí mọ̀ pé ohun tí a ṣe láti ọwọ́ angẹli náà jẹ́ òtítọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ó ṣe bí òun wà lójú ìran.
10 And when they had passed the first guard and the second, they came to the iron gate that led to the city. This opened to them of its own accord; and they went out passed on through one street; and suddenly the angel left him.
Nígbà tí wọ́n kọjá ìṣọ́ èkínní àti èkejì, wọ́n dé ẹnu-ọ̀nà ìlẹ̀kùn irin tí ó lọ sí ìlú. Ó sí tìkára rẹ̀ ṣí sílẹ̀ fún wọn: wọ́n sì jáde, wọ́n ń gba ọ̀nà ìgboro kan lọ; lójúkan náà angẹli náà sì fi í sílẹ̀ lọ.
11 Peter, coming to himself, said, "Now I know for a certainty that the Lord has sent his angel and released me from the hand of Herod, and from all that the Jewish people were anticipating."
Nígbà tí ojú Peteru sì wálẹ̀, ó ní, “Nígbà yìí ni mo tó mọ̀ nítòótọ́ pé, Olúwa rán angẹli rẹ̀, ó sì gbà mi lọ́wọ́ Herodu àti gbogbo ohun tí àwọn ènìyàn Júù ń retí!”
12 So, after he had thought things over, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John, surnamed Mark, where a large number of people were assembled, praying.
Nígbà tó sì rò ó, ó lọ sí ilé Maria ìyá Johanu, tí àpèlé rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Marku; níbi tí àwọn ènìyàn púpọ̀ péjọ sí, tí wọn ń gbàdúrà.
13 When he knocked at the door of the gate, a maid servant named Rhoda came to answer.
Bí ó sì ti kan ìlẹ̀kùn ẹnu-ọ̀nà, ọmọbìnrin kan tí a n pè ní Roda wá láti dáhùn.
14 And when she recognized Peter’s voice, for very joy she did not open the door, but ran in and told them that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
Nígbà tí ó sì ti mọ ohùn Peteru, kò ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn nítorí tí ayọ̀ kún ọkàn rẹ̀ gidigidi, ṣùgbọ́n ó súré wọ ilé, ó sísọ pé, Peteru dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà.
15 "You are mad," they said. But she confidently insisted that it was so. "It is his angel," they said.
Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ ń ṣe òmùgọ̀!” Ṣùgbọ́n ó tẹnumọ́ ọn gidigidi pé bẹ́ẹ̀ ni sẹ́. Wọn sì wí pé, “Angẹli rẹ̀ ni!”
16 Meanwhile Peter continued to knock, until at last they opened the door, and were amazed to see that it was really he.
Ṣùgbọ́n Peteru ń kànkùn síbẹ̀, nígbà tí wọn sì ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn, wọ́n rí i, ẹnu sì yá wọ́n.
17 He motioned to them to keep quiet, and told them how the Lord had brought him out of prison. "Tell all this to James," he said, "and to the brothers," and away he went to another place.
Ṣùgbọ́n ó juwọ́ sí wọn pé kí wọn dákẹ́, ó sì ròyìn fún wọn bí Olúwa ti mú òun jáde kúrò nínú túbú. Ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ ro èyí fún Jakọbu àti àwọn arákùnrin yòókù!” Ó sì jáde, ó lọ sí ibòmíràn.
18 When morning came there was no small stir among the soldiers as to what could possibly have become of Peter.
Nígbà tí ilẹ̀ sì mọ́, ìrúkèrúdò díẹ̀ kọ́ ni ó wà láàrín àwọn ọmọ-ogun nípa ohun tí ó dé bá Peteru.
19 Then Herod had search made for him, and could not find him. After sharply questioning the guards, he ordered them off to execution. He then went down from Judea to Caesarea, where he stayed for some time.
Nígbà tí Herodu sì wá a kiri, tí kò sì rí i, ó wádìí àwọn ẹ̀ṣọ́, ó pàṣẹ pé, kí a pa wọ́n. Herodu sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti Judea lọ sí Kesarea, ó sì wà níbẹ̀ fún ìgbà díẹ̀.
20 Now Herod was violently displeased with the people of Tyre and Sidon. So they came to him, with one accord, and after conciliating Blastus, the royal chamberlain, they begged for peace because their country depended upon the king’s country for its food supply.
Herodu sí ń bínú gidigidi sí àwọn ará Tire àti Sidoni; ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n fi ìmọ̀ ṣọ̀kan wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, nígbà tí wọn sì ti tu Bilasitu ìwẹ̀fà ọba lójú, wọn ń bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún àlàáfíà, nítorí pé ìlú ọba náà ni ìlú tí wọ́n ti ń gba oúnjẹ.
21 So on the appointed day, Herod put on his royal robes, and after taking his seat upon the throne, began to harangue them.
Ni ọjọ́ àfiyèsí kan, Herodu sì wà nínú aṣọ ìgúnwà rẹ̀, ni orí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì ń bá àwọn àjọ ènìyàn sọ̀rọ̀ ní gbangba.
22 "The voice of a god, and not of a man," the people kept shouting.
Àwọn ènìyàn sì hó wí pé, “Ohùn ọlọ́run ni èyí, kì í sì í ṣe ti ènìyàn!”
23 Instantly an angel of the Lord smote him, because he had not given God the glory, and being eaten up by worms, he died.
Lójúkan náà, nítorí ti Herodu kò fi ògo fún Ọlọ́run, angẹli Olúwa lù ú, ó sì kú, ìdin sì jẹ ẹ́.
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied;
Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run gbilẹ̀, ó sì bí sí i.
25 and after discharging their mission, Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, bringing with them John, surnamed Mark.
Barnaba àti Saulu sì padà wá láti Jerusalẹmu, nígbà ti wọ́n sì parí iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ wọn, wọn sì mú Johanu ẹni tí àpèlé rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Marku wá pẹ̀lú wọn.
