Acts 12
1 And at that time Herod the king, who was surnamed Agrippa, laid hands on some of the church, to maltreat them.
उस बखत हेरोदेस राजा नै कलीसिया के कई माणसां ताहीं सताण कै मकसद तै बन्दी बणा लिया।
2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
उसनै प्रेरित यूहन्ना के भाई याकूब ताहीं तलवार तै मरवा दिया।
3 And when he saw that this pleased the Jews, he proceeded also to arrest Simon Cephas. And the days of unleavened bread were then passing.
जिब उसनै देख्या के यहूदी माणस इसतै राज्जी होवै सै, तो उसनै पतरस ताहीं भी पकड़ लिया। वे अखमीरी रोट्टी के त्यौहार के दिन थे।
4 He seized him and cast him into prison, and delivered him to sixteen soldiers, who were to guard him; that he might, after the passover, deliver him up to the people of the Jews.
हेरोदेस नै उस ताहीं पकड़कै जेळ म्ह गेरया, अर चार-चार सिपाहियाँ के चार पहरया म्ह राख्या, इस विचार तै के फसह कै बाद उसनै आदमियाँ कै स्याम्ही ल्यावै।
5 And while Simon was in custody in the prison, continual prayer to God in his behalf, was offered to God by the church.
जेळ म्ह पतरस बन्द था, पर कलीसिया उसकै खात्तर लौ लाकै परमेसवर तै प्रार्थना करण लागरी थी।
6 And on the night before the morning in which he was to be delivered up, while Simon was sleeping between two soldiers, and was bound with two chains, and others were guarding the doors of the prison;
जिब हेरोदेस राजा उसनै आदमियाँ कै स्याम्ही ल्याण आळा था, उस्से रात पतरस दो जंजीरां तै बंध्या होड़ दो सिपाहियाँ कै बिचाळै सोण लागरया था, अर पहरेदार दरबाजे पै जेळ की रुखाळी कररे थे।
7 an angel of the Lord stood over him, and a light shone in all the building; and he pricked his side, and awaked him, and said to him: Arise, instantly. And the chains fell from his hands.
तो देक्खो, प्रभु का एक सुर्गदूत आण खड्या होया अर उस कोठड़ी म्ह चाँदणा चमक्या, अर उसनै पतरस की पासळी पै हाथ मारकै उस ताहीं जगाया अर बोल्या, “उठ, तावळ कर।” अर उसकै हाथ्थां तै बेड़ी खुलकै गिरगी।
8 And the angel said to him: Gird thy loins, and put on thy sandals. And he did so. And again he said to him: Wrap thyself in thy cloak, and come after me.
फेर सुर्गदूत नै उसतै कह्या, “कमर बाँध, अर अपणे जूत्ते पहर ले।” उसनै उस्से ढाळ करया। फेर उसनै उसतै कह्या, “अपणे लत्ते पहरकै मेरै पाच्छै हो ले।”
9 And he went out and followed him, not knowing that what had been done by the angel was a reality; for he supposed, that he saw a vision.
वो लिकड़कै उसकै पाच्छै हो लिया, पर उसनै न्यू न्ही बेरा था के जो किमे सुर्गदूत कर रह्या सै वो साच्ची सै, बल्के न्यू समझै था के जणु मै दर्शन देखण लागरया सूं।
10 And when the first ward was passed and the second, they came to the iron gate, and it opened to them of its own accord. And when they had gone out, and had passed one street, the angel departed from him.
फेर वे पैहल्या अर दुसरे पहरे तै लिकड़कै उस लोहे के फाटक पै पोहचे, जो नगर की ओड़ सै। वो उनकै खात्तर अपणे-आप्पे खुलग्या, अर वे लिकड़कै एक गळी म्ह गए, अर जिब्बे ए सुर्गदूत उसनै छोड़कै चल्या गया।
11 Then Simon recognized where he was; and he said: Now I know, in reality, that God hath sent his angel, and delivered me from the hand of Herod the king, and from what the Jews were devising against me.
फेर पतरस नै चेत म्ह होकै कह्या, “इब मन्नै सच का बेरा पटया सै के प्रभु नै अपणा सुर्गदूत भेजकै मेरै ताहीं हेरोदेस राजा के हाथ्थां तै छुड़ा लिया, अर यहूदी अगुवां की सारी मनसा पै पाणी फेर दिया सै।”
12 And when he had considered, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John surnamed Mark; because many brethren were assembled there and praying.
न्यू जाणकै वो उस यूहन्ना की माँ मरियम कै घरां आया, जो मरकुस कुह्वावै सै। ओड़ै घणे आदमी कठ्ठे होकै प्रार्थना करण लागरे थे।
13 And he knocked at the gate of the court; and a maid named Rhoda came to reply to him.
जिब उननै दरबाजा खटखटाया, तो रूदे नामक एक नौकराणी देखण नै आई।
14 And she recognized the voice of Simon: and, In her joy, she did not open to him the gate, but ran back, and told them: Lo, Simon is standing at the gate of the court.
पतरस का बोल पिच्छाणकै उसनै खुशी के मारे दरबाजा न्ही खोल्या, पर भाजकै भीत्त्तर गई अर बताया के पतरस दरबाजे पै खड्या सै।
15 They said to her: Thou art delirious. But she maintained that it was a fact. They said to her: Perhaps it is his ghost.
उननै उसतै कह्या, “तू बावळी सै।” पर वा पूरे बिश्वास तै बोल्ली के पतरस ए सै। फेर उननै कह्या, “उसका सुर्गदूत होगा।”
16 And Simon was knocking at the gate; and they went out, saw him, and were astonished.
पर पतरस खटखटान्दा ए रहया आखर म्ह उननै दरबाजा खोल्या, अर उस ताहीं देखकै हैरान होग्ये।
17 And he beckoned to them with the hand to be still; and he went in, and related to them how the Lord had released him from the prison. And he said to them: Tell these things to James and to the brethren. And he went out, and departed to another place.
फेर उसनै उन ताहीं हाथ तै इशारा करया के बोल-बाल्ले रहवैं, अर उन ताहीं बताया के प्रभु किस ढाळ उस ताहीं जेळ तै लिकाड़ ल्याया सै। फेर बोल्या, “याकूब अर दुसरे भाईयाँ नै या बात बता दियो।” फेर लिकड़कै दुसरी जगहां चल्या गया।
18 And when it was morning, there was a great dispute among the soldiers concerning Simon, what had become of him.
तड़कैए जेळ के सिपाहियाँ म्ह घणी भगदड़ माचगी के पतरस कित्त गया।
19 And Herod, when he sought him, and could not find him, arraigned the keepers, and sentenced them to die. And he went from Judaea, and resided at Caesarea.
जिब हेरोदेस राजा नै उसकी टोहया-टाही करवाई अर न्ही मिल्या, तो पैहरेदारां की जाँच करकै हुकम दिया के वे मार दिये जावै, अर वो यहूदिया परदेस नै छोड़कै कैसरिया नगर म्ह जाकै रहण लाग्या।
20 And because he was angry against the Tyrians and Sidonians, they assembled and came to him in a body; and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they begged of him that they might have peace; because the supplies of their country were derived from the kingdom of Herod.
हेरोदेस राजा सूर अर सैदा नगर के लोग्गां तै घणा नाराज था। वे एक टोळ बणाकै उसतै मिलण आये, राजा का एक खास कर्मचारी बलास्तुस ताहीं मनाकै राजा तै मेल करणा चाह्या, क्यूँके राजा के देश म्ह उनकै देश का पालन-पोषण होवै था।
21 And on a day appointed, Herod was arrayed in royal apparel, and sat on a tribunal, and made a speech to the assembly.
खास दिन पै हेरोदेस राजा राजसी-बाणा पहरकै सिंहासन पै बेठ्या, अर उन ताहीं खुलास्सा करण लाग्या।
22 And all the people shouted, and said: These are the utterances of a God, and not of a mortal.
फेर आदमियाँ नै रुक्का मारया, “यो तो माणस का न्ही ईश्वर का बोल सै।”
23 And, because he gave not the glory to God, immediately the angel of God smote him; and he was eaten of worms, and died.
उस्से घड़ी प्रभु कै एक सुर्गदूत नै जिब्बे आकै हेरोदेस राजा ताहीं झिड़का, अर वो कीड़े पड़कै मरग्या। क्यूँके उसनै परमेसवर की महिमा कोनी करी,
24 And the gospel of God was proclaimed, and made progress.
पर परमेसवर का वचन बढ़दा अर फैलदा गया।
25 And Barnabas and Saul, after they had completed their ministration, returned from Jerusalem to Antioch. And they took with them John, who was surnamed Mark.
जिब बरनबास अर शाऊल नै अपणी सेवा पूरी कर ली तो यूहन्ना जो मरकुस कुह्वावै था, गेल्या लेकै यरुशलेम नगर तै बोह्ड़े।
