< Acts 2 >

1 And, when the day of pentecost was filling up [the number of days] they were all together with one intent; —
Li danpiili jaanma n pundi, Jesu ŋoadikaaba kuli den ta ki ye kaanyendu.
2 When there came suddenly out of heaven a sound, just as of a mighty rushing wind, —and it filled all the house where they were sitting;
Lanyogunu lanyogunu ku fuugu den ñani tanpoli po ki naani leni ku faciangu, ki gbieni ban ka ya dieli nni.
3 And there appeared unto them—parting asunder—tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each one of them;
Bi den laa ya landi naani leni mi fatanlanma ke yi paadipaadi ki maani yua kuli po.
4 And they were all filled with Holy Spirit, and began to be speaking with other kinds of tongues just as the Spirit was giving unto them to be sounding forth.
Bikuli den gbie leni U Tienu fuoma ki cili ki maadi mabotoe nni nani mi fuoma n puni ba ban maadi maama.
5 Now there were in Jerusalem sojourning Jews, reverent men from every nation who were under heaven;
Li sua ke ya Jufinba n fangin U Tienu ki ye ŋanduna nibuoli kuli siiga da den cua ki ye Jelusalema.
6 And this sound occurring the throng came together and was thrown into confusion, because each one severally heard in his own language them who were speaking;
Ban den gbadi ku fuugu yeni, bi den taani ki yaba. Li den paki ba boncianla kelima yua kuli den gba ke bi maadi o mabocele nni.
7 Yea they were beside themselves and did marvel, saying—Lo! are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans?
Ki yanlidiga leni li pakili den cuo ba ke bi tua: yaaba n maadi ne baa tie Galile yaaba kaa?
8 How then do, we, hear each one in our own language in which we were born?
Li nan tie lede ke ti gba ke bi maadi yua kuli mabocele nni?
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judaea also and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
Tinba yaaba Pati leni Medi yaaba, leni Elama yaaba, ki go tie yaaba n tie Mesopotami, leni Jude, leni Kapadosi leni Ponita leni Asi.
10 Phrygia also and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of the Libya that is towards Cyrene, and the sojourning Romans, —both Jews and proselytes,
leni Filiji, Panfili, Ejibiti leni Silena ya tin buoli kuli, leni ti siiga yaaba n ñani Loma ki cua ke bi tianba tie Jufinba, bi tianba mo tie nilanba yaaba n lebidi ki ŋoadi U Tienu, leni Kileta yaaba leni Alabi yaaba.
11 Cretans and Arabians, we do hear them speaking in our own tongues the magnificent things of God.
Li ga lede ke tikuli yua kuli gba ke bi maadi o mabuolu ki togidi U Tienu n tieni ya bancianma.
12 But they were all beside themselves and were utterly at a loss, saying one to another—What doth this please to be?
Li pakili den cuo bikuli ke baa bani ban maadi yaala. Bi den buali biyaba line bua ki yedi be?
13 While, others, in mockery were saying—With sweet wine, are they drunken!
Bi tianba mo den ñuadi ba ki tua: Bi ñuni duven ki gaadi.
14 But, taking his stand, Peter with the eleven lifted up his voice, and sounded out unto them—Ye men of Judaea, and all ye who are sojourning in Jerusalem! Let, this, unto you be known, and give ear unto my declarations; —
Lani, Pieli den sedi leni bi piiga tondiyendiba ki kpaani ki yedi: yinba Jufinba leni yaaba n ye Jelusalema ne kuli cengi mani n maama boŋanla ki bandi line:
15 For not, as, ye, suppose, are these men drunken, for it is the third hour of the day; —
duven kaa cuo ya jaba n tiena nani yin tama maama. Kelima u yienu daa paagi.
16 But this is that which hath been spoken through the prophet Joel—
Line tie o sawalipualo joeli n den maadi yaala ya maama ki yedi:
17 And it shall be, in the last days saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and, your young men, visions shall see and, your elders, in dreams shall dream, —
U Tienu yedi daa: a juodi dana yogunu n baa teni n fuoma n jiidi ki yayadi bi nisaaliba kuli po. Yi bijaba leni yi bisiaba baa pua sawali, yi jawaaba baa ba li bonlekaala, yi jakpela mo baa dangi ti dangidi.
18 And, even upon my men-servants and upon my maid-servants in those days, will I pour out of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy;
Yeni de, laa dana nni n baa teni n fuoma jiidi, ki yayadi n naacenba leni n potuada po, ke ban pua sawali.
19 And I will set forth wonders in the heaven above, and signs upon the earth beneath, —blood and fire and vapour of smoke:
N ba tieni li bonlidinkaala tanpoli, ki go tieni sinankeeninba ki tinga nni. Mi soama, mi fantama leni a muñijuana.
20 The sun, shall be turned into darkness and, the moon, into blood, —before the coming of the day of the Lord, the great and manifest [day];
U yienu baa lebidi ki biigi, o ŋmaalo moko baa lebidi ki moandi nani mi soama yeni. Hali ke O diedo daali ya dacianli npia ti kpiagidi yeni daa cua.
21 And it shall be—Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved.
Lani yua n jaandi ki mia O diedo yeli nni kuli baa faabi.
22 Ye men of Israel! hear these words: —Jesus the Nazarene, a man pointed out of God unto you by mighty works and wonders and signs, which God did through him in your midst, just as ye yourselves know,
Yin Isalele yaaba, cengi mani mi naa maama. Nasaleti yua Jesu, U Tienu n den tieni yua yaapo seedi yi kuli nintuali kelima wan den tieni yaa bancianma leni yaa bonlidinkaala leni yaa sinankeeninba yi siiga yeni, nani yinba yiba n bani maama.
23 The same, by the marked out counsel and foreknowledge of God given up, through the hands of lawless men, suspending, ye slew,
Bi den laa joa ki teni o yi nuu nni nani U Tienu n den jagi ki bili maama ki tuodi ki bani ke li baa tieni yeni. Yi den kpa o ki teni ke yaaba n kaa fangi U Tienu den joani o li dapoapoanli po.
24 Whom, God, raised up, loosing the pangs of death, inasmuch as it was, not possible, for him to continue held fast by it.
U Tienu den fiini o bi tinkpiiba siiga, ki faabi o leni mi kuuma lolima, li kan den tuo mi kuuma n yaa muubi o moko.
25 For, David, saith concerning him—I foresaw the Lord before me continually, because he is, on my right hand, that I may not be shaken;
Kelima Dafidi den yedi opo line: N den nua o Diedo n kani yogunu kuli. O ye n jienu ke n yama n da yagini.
26 For this reason, was my heart made glad and my tongue exulted, —ye further, even my flesh, shall encamp on hope:
Lani n teni ke n pali mani, ke n lanbu maadi li pamanli maama, n gbannandi mo baa ye leni mi suginma.
27 Because thou wilt not abandon my soul unto hades, neither wilt thou give thy man of lovingkindness to see corruption; (Hadēs g86)
Kelima fini U Tienu kan ŋa nni bi tinkpiba diema nni. A kan tuo ke a nigagidiŋamo n la mi bedima. (Hadēs g86)
28 Thou madest known unto me paths of life, thou wilt make me full of gladness with thy countenance.
A teni ke n bandi li miali sanu, a go baa teni n pali n yaa mani boncianla kelima a ye leni nni.
29 Brethren! it is, allowable, to say with freedom of speech unto you, concerning the patriarch David, —that he both died and was buried, and, his tomb, is among us until this day.
Pieli go den yedi: N kpiiba n baa fidi ki kadi ki waani yi ti yaaja Dafidi maama. O den kpe ke bi piini o, o kuli mo ye ti siiga ŋali dinla.
30 Being then, a prophet, and knowing that, with an oath, God had sworn unto him, of the fruit of his loins, to seat on his throne,
Kelima o den tie sawalipualo ki pua sawali, ki bani ke U Tienu niani o o ñoanianu ki poli ke o baa teni o puoliŋuani siiga yendo n ti kali o gbandi po.
31 With foresight, spake he concerning the resurrection of the Christ—that neither was he abandoned unto hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
Lani yaa po o den maadi ki tuodi ki waani U Tienu n gandi yua fiima bi tinkpiba siiga maama fuuli. Moamoani U Tienu ki den ŋa o bi tinkpiba diema nni, o gbannandi mo ki bedi. (Hadēs g86)
32 The same Jesus, hath God raised up, whereof, all we, are witnesses!
U Tienu den fiini o bi tinkpiba siiga. Ti kuli tie lipo seedinba.
33 By the right hand of God, therefore, having been exalted, also, the promise of the Holy Spirit, having received from the Father, He hath poured out this which, yourselves, do see and hear.
U Tienu n den duoni o o jienu po ki kpiagi o, o den baa wani Baa kani U Tienu Fuoma Yua nani U Tienu n den niani maama, ki yayadi o tipo, nani yin nua ki go gba maama.
34 For, David, hath not ascended into the heavens; but he saith, himself, —Said the Lord unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
Dafidi naa den doni ki gedi tanpoli po ama o nan yedi: O Diedo U Tienu den yedi n Diedo: Kali n jienu po,
35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
ŋali min baa guli a yibalinba ŋan ŋma ba.
36 Assuredly, then, let all the house of Israel know: that, both Lord and Christ, hath God made him, even the same Jesus whom, ye, crucified!
Pieli go den yedi: Lani yaa po yinba Isalele yaaba kuli, yin bandi mani boŋanla ke U Tienu teni ke Jesu, yin den joani yua li dapoanli po, tie o Diedo leni U Tienu n gandi yua.
37 And, when they heard this, they were pricked to the heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles—What are we to do, brethren?
Ban den gbadi mi naa maama mi den cuo bi pala ke bi yedi pieli leni o tondilieba: Ti kpiiba, ti baa tieni lede?
38 And Peter [said] unto them—Repent ye, and let each one of you be immersed, in the name of Jesus Christ, into the remission of your sins, —and ye shall receive the free-gift of the Holy Spirit;
Pieli den goa yedi ba: Lebidi mani yi yama, yi siiga yua kuli n batisi leni Jesu Kilisiti yeli nni, ke yin baa sugili yi tuonbiadi po. Lani yi baa ba U Tienu paabu yaabu n tie U Tienu Fuoma Yua.
39 For, unto you, is the promise, and unto your children, —and unto all them who are afar off: as many soever as the Lord our God shall call unto him.
Kelima U Tienu ñoanianu yeni tie yinba yaapo leni yi bila yaa po, ki go tie yaaba n ye ŋali foagima yaa po, o Diedo ti Tienu n baa yini yaaba kuli.
40 And, with many different words, bare he frail witness, and went on exhorting them saying—Be saved from this perverse generation!
Pieli den maadi matoama boncianla ki pugini, ki tiendi seedi Jesu po ki tundi ba ki yedi ba: Sani mani ki faabi yi yula leni bi naa nibiadiba.
41 They, therefore, who welcomed his word, were immersed; and there were added, on that day, about three thousand souls.
Bi den batisi yaaba n den ga o maama. Laa daali yaaba n den pugini bi ŋoadikaaba po den bua ki pundi niba tudata.
42 And they went on to give constant attention—unto the teaching of the apostles, and unto the fellowship, unto the breaking of bread, and unto the prayers.
Bi den kuani bi yama ki gaani Jesu tondiba bangima, ki taagi li dandanli yaaba taanli nni, ki taandi ki taani dupen ki go jaandi yogunu kuli kaa cedi.
43 And there came on every soul, fear, and, many wonders and signs, through means of the apostles, were coming to pass.
Li fangili den cuo nilo kuli. Jesu tondiba den tiendi mi bancianma leni li bonlidinkaala boncianla.
44 And, all who believed, with one accord, began to hold all things common;
Yaaba n den daani Jesu kuli den ye kaanyendu, ki taani bi bonpiakaala ke li tie bi kuli yaala.
45 and, their possessions and goods, were they selling and distributing them unto all, in so far as anyone had need.
Bi den yen kuadi bi kuani leni bi loagi, ki boagidi laa ligi bi siiga nani yua kuli n luo maama.
46 And, daily giving attendance with one intent in the temple and, at home, breaking bread, they were partaking of food with exultation and singleness of heart;
Daali kuli bi den taagi U Tienu diegu nni leni yanyenma kaa cedi, ki caa bi yaba deni ki taandi ki taani dupen, ki boagi bi jiema leni biyaba leni li pamanli leni li padingili,
47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And, the Lord, was adding them who were being saved, daily, together.
ki pagi U Tienu ki baadi li seli bi niba kuli nuntuali. Daali kuli o Diedo go den faabidi nitoaba ki pugidi Kilisiti n yini yaaba.
