Acts 12
1 Now about that time, Herod the king stretched out his hands to oppress some of the church.
Ie henane zay, nañity fitàñe t’i Heroda mpanjaka hampisarerake ty ila’ i fivoriy.
2 He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
Navetra’e am-pibara t’Iakobe rahalahi’ i Jaona.
3 When he saw that it pleased the Jewish people, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.
Ie nifohi’e te nahafale o Tehodao, le tinovo’e ami’ty nitsepahañe i Petera. Nanoeñe amo andro’ i Sabadidak’ i Mofo tsy aman-dalivaiio zay.
4 When he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
Tsinepa’e re naho najo’e am-porozò ao naho nanolotse mpiray lian-dahindefoñe efatse hañambeñe aze, ie nisinafiry ty hañakatse aze añatrefa’ ondatio naho fa tampetse i Fihelañey.
5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the church to God for him.
Aa le nitambozoreñe am-balabey ao t’i Petera vaho nimanea’ i Fivoriy halaly aman’ Añahare.
6 The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.
Ie amy aniankale’ ty hanesea’ i Heroda, le nirotse añivo’ ty lahin-defoñe roe ao t’i Petera nivahoran-tsilisily roe, vaho nijohañe an-dalam-bey eo o mpigaritse i porozòio.
7 And look, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side, and woke him up, saying, "Stand up quickly." His chains fell off from his hands.
Tojo te nivotrake eo ty anjeli’ Iehovà, le nireandreañe amy trañoy ty hazavàñe. Nedrè’e an-deme’e t’i Petera naho nampitroare’e ami’ty hoe, Miongaha masìka! vaho nivitsok’ am-pità’e o silisilio.
8 The angel said to him, "Get dressed and put on your sandals." He did so. He said to him, "Put on your cloak, and follow me."
Le hoe ty asa’ i anjeliy tama’e: Midiaña naho mihanà. Nanoe’e izay. Le hoe re tama’e: Saravio o lamba’oo le mañoriha.
9 And he went out and followed him. He did not know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
Niakatse re, nanonjohy avao, fa tsy napota’e te ho tò i nanoe’ i anjeliy ama’ey; natao’e te nioniñ’ aroñaroñe.
10 When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out, and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.
Rinio’ iareo ty liam-pigaritse valoha’e naho ty faharoe vaho nigaoñe ami’ty lalam-bey viñe fimoahañe amy rovay ze nisokake ho a iareo an-tsatri’e le niakatse naho nizotso mb’ami’ty lalañe mb’ eo vaho nimiañe ama’e i anjeliy.
11 When Peter had come to himself, he said, "Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting."
Ie nivañoñe t’i Petera, le hoe re: Apotako henaneo an-katò te nirahe’ Iehovà i anjeli’ey hañaha ahy am-pità’ i Heroda naho amy ze fitamà’ o Jiosy iabio.
12 Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
Ie naharendreke izay, le nimb’ añ’ anjomba’ i Marie rene’ i Jaona natao Marka, ze nivoria’ ty maro nihalaly.
13 And when Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
Aa ie nañonkòñe amy lalam-bey fimoahañey t’i Petera, le nimb’eo ty mpitoroñ’ ampela atao Rodae handrendreke.
14 When she recognized Peter's voice, she did not open the gate for joy, but ran in, and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
Ie nirendre’e ty fiarañanaña’ i Petera, le akore ty hafalea’e, kanao tsy nanokake lalañe, te mone nilay añe nitalily te nijohañe an-dalambey ao t’i Petera!
15 They said to her, "You are crazy." But she insisted that it was so. They said, "It is his angel."
Veren-draha n’iheo, hoe iareo. Fe mbe nitambozore’e te to, le hoe iereo: I anjeli’ey ‘nio.
16 But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him, and were amazed.
Mbe nañonkòñe avao t’i Petera. Aa naho sinoka’ iareo i lalañey, nizoe’ iereo re vaho nilatsa,
17 But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, "Tell these things to James, and to the brothers." Then he departed, and went to another place.
le tinondrotondro’ i Petera am-pitañe hianjiña’ iareo naho natalili’e ty nampiakara’ i Talè aze amy porozòy. Le hoe re: Italilio t’Iakobe naho o roahalahio; vaho nienga mb’an-toetse hafa añe.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
Ie nimaraindray, hay aia ty fivalitaboa’ o lahin-defoñeo ami’ty nanjò’ i Petera.
19 When Herod had sought for him, and did not find him, he examined the guards, and commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
Ie nampitsoehe’ i Heroda soa fa tsy nioniñe, le nilohize’e o mpigaritseo vaho nampanese’e añe. Nizotso boake Iehodà mb’e Kaisaria añe t’i Heroda le nitambatse ao.
20 Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus, the king's personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king's country for food.
Ie amy zao ro nioroñoroñe amy Tirò naho i Sidona, f’ie nifamantañe le nimb’ ama’e mb’eo re, naho nampivavè’ iareo t’i Blasto, mpiatra’ i mpanjakay, le nihalaly fifampilongoañe ama’e amy te mpamahañe ty tane’ i mpanjakay ty tane’ iareo.
21 On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, and sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
Aa ie amy andro tinendrey, nisikin-dambam-panjaka t’i Heroda, niambesatse am-piambesa’e eo nilañoñe am’ondatio.
22 But the crowd shouted, "The voice of a god, and not of a man."
Aa le nipazapazake ty hoe ondatio: Fiarañanañan-drañahare zao fa tsy a ondaty.
23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he did not give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and died.
Toly ndra pinao’ ty anjeli’ Iehovà amy zao, ie tsy nandrenge an’ Andrianañahare, le nihànen’ oletse vaho nihomake.
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
Niraorao avao naho niboele ty tsara’ i Talè.
25 Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John whose surname was Mark.
Naho niheneke ty lia’ i Barnabasy naho i Saole e Ierosaleme ao le nimpoly vaho nindese’ iereo t’i Jaona, atao Marka mindre ama’e.
