Acts 2
1 And on the day of Pentecost they were all together in one place.
Esi Pentekoste ŋkekea ɖo la, nusrɔ̃lawo katã ƒo ƒu ɖe afi ɖeka.
2 And suddenly there came out of heaven a sound, as of a rushing mighty wind; and it filled the whole house where they were sitting;
Kasia gbe sesẽ aɖe si le abe ya sesẽ ƒe ƒoƒo ene la ɖi tso dziƒo, eye wòyɔ aƒe si me wonɔ la taŋtaŋ.
3 and there appeared to them tongues as of fire, distributing themselves; and one sat upon each of them.
Enumake wokpɔ nane si ɖi dzo ƒe aɖewo la dze ɖe wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe ƒe tame,
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, even as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la yɔ ame sia ame si le afi ma la me fũu, eye wode asi gbegbɔgblɔ bubu si womenya tsã o la gbɔgblɔ me abe ale si Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la na ŋutete wo ene.
5 Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
Le ɣe ma ɣi hã la, Yudatɔ mawuvɔ̃la geɖewo tso dukɔ vovovo siwo le dziƒo te la va Yerusalem be yewoaɖu ŋkeke tɔxɛ sia.
6 And when this sound took place, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because every one heard them speaking in his own language.
Esi wose ɣli si nɔ ɖiɖim le afi si nusrɔ̃lawo nɔ la, ame geɖewo fũu ɖe abla va teƒea. Ame siawo ƒe nu ku ŋutɔ, elabena ame sia ame see wonɔ eƒe degbe gblɔm.
7 And they were amazed, and marveled, saying, Behold, are not all these who speak Galilaeans?
Nu sia wɔ nuku na amedzroawo ale gbegbe be wogblɔ be, “Ame siawo katã ɖe, menye Galileatɔwo wonye oa?
8 and how is it that we every one hear them in our own language, wherein we were born?
Ke aleke wɔ míese wole ame sia ame degbe gblɔm mahã?
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, Judaea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
Mía dometɔ aɖewo nye Patiatɔwo, ɖewo nye Midiatɔwo kple Elamtɔwo, bubuwo hã tso Mesopotamia, Yudea, Kapadokia, Ponto kple Asia nutowo me.
10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and Romans who sojourn here, both Jews and Proselytes,
Ame aɖewo gɔ̃ hã tso keke Frigia, Pamfilia, Egipte kple Libia si le Kirene gbɔ, kple ame siwo nye amedzrowo tso Roma.
11 Cretans and Arabians—how is it that we hear them speaking in our tongues the wonderful works of God?
Ɛ̃, ame aɖewo tso Roma gɔ̃. Ame siawo nye Yudatɔwo kple ame siwo menye Yudatɔwo o, gake wotrɔ dzime xɔ Yudatɔwo ƒe subɔsubɔ eye bubuwo hã nye Kretatɔwo kple Arabiatɔwo. Mía dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe se ame siawo le Mawu ƒe nukunu gãwo ƒe nya gblɔm le eya ŋutɔ degbe me!”
12 And they were all amazed and were in doubt, saying one to another, What can this mean?
Ameha la ƒe nu ku eye woƒe mo wɔ yaa le nyadzɔdzɔ sia ta, eye wobia wo nɔewo be, “Nu sia gɔme ɖe?”
13 Others making sport of it, said, They are full of new wine.
Gake ame aɖewo ya nɔ ameha la dome nɔ fewu ɖum le apostoloawo ŋu be, “Ame siawo la, aha yeye womu.”
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Men of Judea, and all that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words.
Azɔ la, Petro kple Apostolo wuiɖekɛawo tsi tsitre, eye Petro kɔ gbe dzi ƒo nu na amehawo be, “Nɔvi, Yudatɔwo, kple Yerusalem nɔlawo siaa, mina maɖe nu sia me na mi; miɖo to nyuie miase nu si magblɔ.
15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose; for it is the third hour of the day;
Ame siawo memu aha abe ale si miesusui ene o. Elabena ŋdi ga asiekɛ koe ƒo.
16 but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel,
Ke boŋ nu si teƒe kpɔm miele ŋdi sia la nye nu si Nyagblɔɖila Yoel gblɔ ɖi xoxoxo ƒe alafa nanewoe nye esi va yi be,
17 “It shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams;
“‘Le ŋkeke mamlɛawo me la, Mawu gblɔ be makɔ nye Gbɔgbɔ ɖe amegbetɔƒomeawo katã dzi. Esia ana be mia viŋutsuwo kple mia vinyɔnuwo agblɔ nya ɖi. Hekpe ɖe esia ŋu la, mia viŋutsuwo akpɔ ŋutegawo, eye ame tsitsiwo hã aku drɔ̃ewo.
18 and even on my servants, and on my handmaids, I will pour out of my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
Ɛ̃, matrɔ nye Gbɔgbɔ la akɔ ɖe nye subɔlawo katã dzi, ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa, matrɔ nye Gbɔgbɔ la akɔ ɖi le ŋkeke mawo me, ale be woagblɔ nya ɖi.
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;
Mana nukunuwo nadzɔ le dziŋgɔli me, eye dzesiwo adze le anyigba dzi siaa eye wòadze abe ʋu, dzo bibi kple dzudzɔ babla kɔtɔɔ ene.
20 the sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord cometh, the great and notable day.
Ɣe ado viviti, eye ɣleti atrɔ zu ʋu hafi Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkeke gã si nye atsyɔ̃ŋkeke la naɖo.
21 And it shall be that every one that calleth on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Ke ame sia ame si yɔa Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkɔa la akpɔ ɖeɖe.’”
22 Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God to you by miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God wrought by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves know, —
Petro yi edzi gblɔ be, “Nɔvi Israeltɔwo, miɖo to miase! Mawu wɔ nukunuwo, dzesiwo kple nu dzɔtsuwo le mia dome to Yesu Nazaretitɔ la dzi be yeatsɔ aɖo kpe edzii be Yesu nye ye Vi vavã. Nu siawo katã le nyanya me na mi pɛpɛpɛ.
23 this man, being delivered up by the settled purpose and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of godless men, crucified and slew.
Azɔ, abe ale si Mawu ŋutɔ wɔ ɖoɖo da ɖi xoxo ene la, eɖe mɔ na mi, mieto nu madzɔmadzɔ wɔlawo ƒe asi dzi, klã Yesu ɖe atitsoga ŋu eye miewui.
24 But God raised him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it.
Gake Mawu ŋutɔ gaɖe Yesu tso ku ƒe ŋɔdzi me, fɔe ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome, elabena ku ƒe ŋusẽ mate ŋu aɖu Yesu dzi o.
25 For David saith concerning him, “I saw the Lord always before me; because he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Fia David ƒo nu tso Yesu ŋu be, “‘Mekpɔ Aƒetɔ la le gbɔnye ɖaa, elabena ele nye nuɖusime, eya ta nyemavɔ̃ o.
26 Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue exulted; moreover also, my flesh shall dwell in hope;
Esia ta nye dzi le dzidzɔ kpɔm, eye nye aɖe le aseye tsom be nye ŋutilã anɔ agbe le mɔkpɔkpɔ me.
27 because thou wilt not abandon my soul to the underworld, nor wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
Elabena wò Mawu, màgblẽ nye luʋɔ ɖe tsiẽƒe alo ana wò kɔkɔetɔ la ƒe ŋutilã nanyunyɔ o. (Hadēs g86)
28 Thou didst make known to me the ways of life; thou wilt make me full of joy with thy countenance.”
Èna menya agbemɔwo, eye àtsɔ dzidzɔ ayɔ menye le ŋkuwò me.’”
29 Brethren, I may speak to you with freedom of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us to this day.
Petro yi edzi be, “Nɔviwo, mɔ li be magblɔ nya na mi kple dzideƒo le tɔgbui David la ŋuti, be eku, eye woɖii, eƒe yɔdo le mía dome va se ɖe egbe.
30 Being then a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that he would set one sprung from his loins upon his throne,
Ke enye nyagblɔɖila, eye enya be Mawu do ŋugbe matrɔmatrɔ da ɖi be David ƒe dzidzimevi ɖeka ava nɔ eƒe fiazikpui dzi aɖu fia.
31 he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that neither was he abandoned to the underworld, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
Gawu la, David kpɔ nu siwo ava dzɔ le ŋgɔgbea, eye wògblɔe ɖi le Kristo la ƒe tsitretsitsi tso ame kukuwo dome ŋu be eƒe luʋɔ matsi tsiẽƒe o, eye eƒe ŋutilã manyunyɔ o. (Hadēs g86)
32 This Jesus God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
Mawu fɔ Yesu sia ɖe tsitre tso ku me, eye mí katã míenye ɖasefowo na tsitretsitsi sia.
33 Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye both see and hear.
Ke fifia la, Mawu do eya amea ɖe dzi, hetsɔe ɖo eƒe nuɖusime abe ale si Fofo la ŋutɔ do ŋugbee ene la, ena ŋusẽe be wòaɖo Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la ɖe mía dome, eye eya ƒe dɔwɔnae nye nu siwo kpɔm miele kple nu siwo sem mìele fifia.
34 For David did not ascend into the heavens; but he himself saith, The Lord said to my lord, “Sit thou on my right hand,
Elabena David meyi dziƒo o, gake egblɔ be, “‘Aƒetɔ la gblɔ na nye Aƒetɔ be: “Nɔ anyi ɖe nye nuɖusime
35 until I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
va se ɖe esime matsɔ wò ketɔwo awɔ wò afɔɖodzinu.”’
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified.
“Eya ta mina ne Israel blibo la katã nanyae nyuie be Mawu wɔ Yesu sia, ame si miawo mieklã ɖe ati ŋu la, Aƒetɔ la kple Kristo la siaa.”
37 And when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what must we do?
Esi wose nya siawo la, ewɔ dɔ ɖe wo dzi ale gbegbe be wo dometɔ aɖewo bia Petro kple apostolo bubuawo be, “Nɔviwo, nu ka wɔ ge míala?”
38 But Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized to the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Petro ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Mitrɔ dzi me ne woade mawutsi ta na mi le Yesu Kristo ƒe ŋkɔ me, be woatsɔ miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake mi. Ekema miawo hã miaxɔ nunana sia, si nye Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la.
39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.
Ŋugbedodo la nye miawo ŋutɔwo, mia viwo, ame siwo le adzɔge kple ame siwo katã Aƒetɔ mía Mawu la yɔ la tɔ.”
40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.
Petro tsɔ nya bubu geɖewo xlɔ̃ nu ameha la, eye wòƒoe ɖe wo nu be, “Miɖe mia ɖokuiwo tso dzidzime vɔ̃ɖi sia me.”
41 They therefore received his word, and were baptized; and there were added on that day about three thousand souls.
Ame siwo xɔ Petro ƒe nyawo dzi se la, woanɔ abe akpe etɔ̃ ene, eye wode mawutsi ta na wo gbe ma gbe ke, eye wotsɔ wo kpe ɖe ha la ŋu.
42 And they were constantly attending on the teaching of the apostles, and the imparting [[of their substance]], the breaking of bread, and the prayers.
Ame siawo kpena enuenu hena apostolowo ƒe nufiafia, habɔbɔ, Aƒetɔ ƒe nuɖuɖu kɔkɔe la ɖuɖu kple gbedodoɖa.
43 And fear came upon every soul; and many wonders and signs were wrought through the apostles.
Wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe nɔ anyi le vɔvɔ̃ tɔxɛ me, eye apostoloawo hã wɔ nukunu kple dzesi geɖewo wokpɔ.
44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
Xɔsetɔwo katã nɔ teƒe ɖeka, wowɔ woƒe nuwo katã hamenui,
45 and they sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as any one had need.
wotsɔ woƒe kesinɔnuwo kple nunɔamesiwo dzra, eye woma ga la na ame sia ame ɖe eƒe hiahiã nu.
46 And attending daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread in a private house, they partook of their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
Wokpea ta ɖe gbedoxɔ la me gbe sia gbe hesubɔa Mawu. Wodoa go le wo nɔewo ƒe aƒewo me hã heɖua Aƒetɔ la ƒe Nuɖuɖu Kɔkɔe la. Woɖua nu ɖekae le dzidzɔ kple dzimekɔkɔ me,
47 praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were in the way of salvation.
eye wonɔa Mawu kafum ɖaa, hekpɔa amenuveve le amewo katã gbɔ. Ke Aƒetɔ la tsɔa ame siwo kpɔ xɔxɔ la kpena ɖe wo ŋuti gbe sia gbe.
