Acts 2
1 On the day when [the Jews were celebrating the] Pentecost [festival], the [believers] were all together in one place [in Jerusalem].
Bedigosidi eso (Ha: i Manu Gamibi Lolo Nasu) da doaga: loba, Yesu Ea hou lalegagui dunu huluane da diasu afadafa amo ganodini gilisili esalebe ba: i.
2 Suddenly [they heard] a noise [coming] from the sky [that sounded] like a strong wind. Everyone in the entire house where they were sitting heard the noise.
Hedolowane, muagado fo bagade ea sia: agoane gulibagei, isu bagadewane diasu ganodini gulibagesu.
3 Then they saw [what looked] like flames of fire. These flames separated [from one another], and [one of them] came down on [the head of] each of the believers.
Amalalu, dunu huluane ilia da lalu gona: su ea ba: su agoane dunu eno dunu eno amo da: iya wilalebe agoane ba: i.
4 Then all of the believers were (completely controlled/empowered) by the Holy Spirit {the Holy Spirit (completely controlled/empowered) all of the believers}, and he enabled them to begin speaking other languages [MTY] [that they had not learned].
Amalalu, ilia huluane da Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala amoga nabai ba: i. A: silibu da ilima gasa iabeba: le, ilia sia: hisu hisu amoga sia: nanebe ba: i.
5 At that time [many] Jews were staying in Jerusalem [to celebrate the Pentecost festival. They were people who] always tried to obey [the Jewish] laws. [They had come] from many different [HYP] countries.
Amo esoha, eno Godema dawa: su Yu dunu, ilia eno osobo bagade soge huluane amoga Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amoga misi esalu.
6 When they heard that [loud] noise [like a wind], a crowd came together [to the place where the believers were]. The crowd (was amazed/did not know what to think), because each of them was hearing [one of] the believers speaking in that person’s own language.
Amo gulibagesu amola sia: hisu hisu ilia nababeba: le, dunu bagohame gilisi. Ilia huluane ilia sia: dafa amoga Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu da sia: dalebe ba: loba, bagadewane fofogadigi.
7 They were completely amazed, and they said [to each other], “All these men who are speaking have [RHQ] [always] resided in Galilee [district, so they would not know our languages].
Fofogadigili, ilia amane sia: i, “Amo dunu waha sia: hisu hisu sia: dalebe, ilia da Ga: lili dunu fawane.
8 ([We(inc) do not understand] how these men can speak our own native languages!/How can these men speak our own native languages?) [RHQ] [But] all of us hear them [doing that]
Amaiba: le, ilia ninia sia: dafa amoga habodane sia: dalula: ?
9 [Some of us are from the regions of] Parthia and Media and Elam, and [others of us] reside [in the regions of] Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia.
Ninia soge da hisu hisu bagohame. Amo da Badia, Midia, Ilame, Mesoubouda: imia, Yudia, Ga: badousia, Bonadase amola A: isia.
10 There are some from Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the regions in Libya [that are] near Cyrene [city]. [There are others of us] who are [here] visiting [Jerusalem] from Rome.
Falidia, Ba: mafilia, Idibidi, Libia soge (Sailini gadenene soge), amo soge huluane amoga ninia misi. Mogili ninia da Louma sogega esala dunu.
11 [They include native] Jews as well as non-Jews who have accepted what we Jews believe. And others of us are from Crete [Island] and from [the region of] Arabia. [So how is it that these people] are speaking our languages [MTY], telling us [about] (the great/the mighty things) [that] God has done?”
Ninia mogili da Yu dunu, mogili da Dienadaile dunu (Gode hame dawa: su dunu) amo sinidigili bu Yu dafawaneyale dawa: su fi amoma gilisi. Mogili ninia da Galidi amola Ala: ibia, amo sogega misi. Be ninia huluane da ninia sia: dafa amoga amo dunu ilia Gode Ea gasa bagade hawa: hamosu amo sia: dalebe naba.”
12 All [those people] were amazed, and did not know what to think [about what was happening]. So they asked one another, “What does this mean?”
Fofogadigili amola gogolewane, ilia gilisili sia: dasu, “Amo mabe hou ea bai da adila: ?”
13 But [some] of them (made fun of/laughed at) [those who believed in Jesus]. They said, “[These people are talking like this because] they are drunk!”
Be mogili ilia Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu ilia hou ba: beba: le, oufesega: ne amane sia: i, “Amo dunu da adini ba: iba: le, feloale hamosa.”
14 So Peter stood up with the [other] eleven [apostles] and spoke loudly to the [crowd of] people, saying, “[My] fellow Jews and you [others] who are staying in Jerusalem, listen to me, all of you, and I will explain to you what is happening!
Amalalu, Bida amola eno asunasi dunu gidayale, ilia wa: legadole, amola Bida da ha: giwane amo dunu huluanema amane sia: i, “Yu dunu amola Yelusalemega esala dunu huluane, nabima! Amo hou dilia waha ba: sa, amo ea bai na dilima olelemu.
15 [Some of] you think that [we(exc) are drunk], but we are not drunk. It is [only] nine o’clock in the morning, [and people here never get drunk this early] in the day!
Goe dunu, ilia da adini ba: i dilia dawa: sa. Hame mabu! Wali da hahabe fawane, 9ougologo fawane.
16 Instead, [what has happened to us is] the [miraculous] thing that the prophet Joel wrote about [long ago]. [Joel wrote]: God says,
Be amo hou dilia waha ba: sa da musa: balofede dunu Youele da agoane olelei, amane,
17 ‘During the last/final days [before I judge all people], I will give my Spirit abundantly/generously to people [SYN] everywhere. [As a result], your sons and daughters will tell [people] messages from me, the young men among you will see visions [from me], and the old men among you will have dreams [that I will give them].
‘Gode da amane sia: sa, ‘Soge wadela: mu eso gadenesea, Na da Na A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala osobo bagade fi dunu huluane ilima hano agoane sogadigimu. Dilia egefe amola didiwi, ilia da eno dunuma Na Sia: olelemu. Dilia ayeligi dunu da esala ba: la: lumu, amola dilia da: i dunu da simasia ba: mu.
18 During those days I will abundantly/generously give my Spirit [even] to men and women believers [who are] my slaves/servants, so they can tell [people] messages from me.
Dafawane! Na hawa: hamosu dunu amola uda, ilima Na A: silibu Na da imunuba: le, ilia da Na sia: olelemu.
19 I will cause amazing things to happen in the sky, and I will do miracles on the earth that will show [that I am powerful]. [Here] on the earth [CHI] I [will cause wars with] blood, fire and thick/dark smoke [everywhere].
Na da muagado amo ganodini musa: hame ba: su dawa: digima: ne olelesu hamomu. Amola osobo bagadega gasa bagade hawa: hamomu. Dilia da maga: me, lalu bagade amola lalu mobi ba: mu.
20 [In the sky] the sun will [appear] dark [to people] and the moon [will appear] red [to them. Those things will happen] before the important and splendid/amazing day [MTY] [when I], the Lord [God, will come to judge everyone].
Eso da hadigi fisili amola oubi da haliga: iwane ba: mu, Amasea, Hina Gode amo Ea Eso bagadedafa amola hadigidafa da doaga: i dagoi ba: mu.
21 [Before that time], all those who ask [me] [MTY] [to save them from the guilt of their sins] will be saved {[I], the Lord, will save all those who ask [me] [MTY] [to save them from the guilt of their sins].}’”
Amo esoga, nowa da Hina Ea Dioba: le, E ili gaga: ma: ne wele sia: sea, ilia da Gode Ea Gaga: su ba: mu!”
22 [Peter continued], “[My fellow] Israelites, listen to me! [When] Jesus from Nazareth [town lived] among you, God proved to you [that he had sent him] by enabling him to do many amazing miracles. You yourselves know [that this is true].
Dilia Isala: ili dunu huluane, nabima! Yesu, Na: salede dunu, E da musa: hame ba: su dawa: digima: ne olelesu liligi bagohame Gode Ea gasaga hamobeba: le, E da Hina Gode Ea Hou dilima moloiwane olelei. Dilia amo hou huluane dawa: Bai E da guiguda: hamoiba: le, dilia huluane ba: i dagoi.
23 [Even though you knew that], you turned this man [Jesus] over to his enemies. [However], God had already planned for that, and he knew all about it. Then you urged men [SYN] who do not obey [God’s] law to kill Jesus. They did that by nailing him to a cross.
Amo hou, Gode da hanaiba: le, E da musa: dawa: lalu amola ilegei dagoi. Udigili hame, be hanaiba: le, Gode da Yesu dilima i. Amalalu, dilia da Yesu eno wadela: i hamosu dunu ilima i. Dilia sia: beba: le, ilia Yesu bulufalegeiga medole legei.
24 He suffered terribly [when he died, but God caused him to become alive again]. God did not let him continue to be dead, because it was not possible for him [PRS] to remain dead.”
Be Gode da Yesu uhini, wa: legadolesi dagoi. E da bogosu ea gasa bagade hou fisili, E da bogosu ganodini dialumu hamedei galu.
25 “[Long ago King] David wrote [what] the Messiah [said], “knew [that] you, Lord [God, would always] be near me. You are right beside [MTY] me, so I will not be afraid of [those who want to harm me].
Da: ibidi da musa: , Yesu Ea hou olelema: ne, amane sia: i, ‘Na da Hina Gode mae yolele, na midadi esalu ba: i. E da mae yolesili, gadenene esalebeba: le, na da hame beda: mu.
26 Because of that I [SYN] joyfully praise [you, O God]. And I am completely confident that [you(sg) will] ([cause my body] to become alive [again]/[raise me from the dead]).
Amaiba: le na da hahawane bagade, amola na da nodone sia: nana. Na da osobo bagade dunu fawane, be na da dafawane hamoma: beyale dawa: beba: le, hame beda: mu.
27 You will not allow my spirit to remain in the place where the dead are. You will not [even] let my body decay, [because] I am devoted to you and always obey [you]. (Hadēs g86)
Dia da na a: silibu bogoi sogebi amoga hame yolesimu. Na da Di mae yolesili hawa: hamosu dunu esala. Amaiba: le, Di da na da: i hodo dasama: ne, bogoi uli dogoiga hame yolesimu (Hadēs g86)
28 You have told me [that you will cause my body] to become alive [again]. You will make me very happy [because] you will be with me [forever].”
Dia da esalusu logo ahoasu huluane nama olelei dogoi. Na amola Di, ani gilisili esalumuba: le, na da hahawane bagade ba: mu.”
29 [Peter] continued, “My fellow Jews, I can tell you confidently that [our royal] ancestor, [King] David, died, and that his [body] was buried {that [people] buried his [body]}. And the place [where they] buried his body is [still] here today.
Na fi dunu! Na da ninia aowalali ada, hina bagade Da: ibidi, amo ea hou dilima moloiwane olelemu. E da musa: bogole, uli dogone sali dagoi. Ea uli dogoi da guiguda: diala.
30 So [we(inc) know that David was not speaking those words about himself. But] because he was a prophet, [he spoke about the Messiah]. David knew that God had strongly promised him that he would cause one of his descendants to become king [MTY] like David was king. (OR, to [be the Messiah who would] rule [God’s people] like David had ruled [them].)
E da balofede dunu galu. Amola e da Gode Ea fa: no hahawane dogolegele imunu hou dawa: i galu. Gode Ea ilegele sia: i da E da Da: ibidi egaga dunu, Da: ibidi defele, hina bagade dunu hamomu.
31 David knew beforehand [what God would do], so he [was able to] say that God would cause the Messiah to live again [after he died]. He said that God would not let the Messiah remain in the place of the dead, nor let his body decay.” (Hadēs g86)
Da: ibidi da Gode Ea fa: no hamomu hou ba: beba: le, e da Mesaia Ea bu uhini wa: legadomu olelei amane, “Gode da bogosu sogebi amo ganodini amo dunu hame yolesi. Ea da: i hodo da bogoi uli dogoi ganodini dasai hame ba: i.” (Hadēs g86)
32 “[After] this [man] Jesus [had died], God caused him to become alive [again]. All of us(exc), [his followers], have seen [and tell people] that Jesus has become alive again.
Defea! Amo Yesu Hi da bogole, Gode da E uhini bu wa: legadolesi dagoi. Amo hou huluane ninia ba: su.
33 God has greatly honored Jesus [by causing him to rule] right beside him [MTY] [in heaven]. Jesus has received the Holy Spirit from [God] his Father, [just like] God promised. [So] Jesus has generously/abundantly given us the Holy Spirit, [and he has shown that by] what you are seeing and hearing.
E da wa: legadole, wali Ea ada Gode Ea lobo dafadili fisa. Gode Ea musa: olelei agoane, E da Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala lai dagoi. Amo hahawane dogolegele iasu E da ninima i dagoi, amo hou dilia waha ba: sa.
34 [We(inc) know that David was not speaking about himself] because David did not go up into heaven [as Jesus did]. [Besides that], David himself said [this about the Messiah]: The Lord [God] said to my Lord [the Messiah], ‘Reign here beside me,
Da: ibidi da Yesu defele, Hebene diasuga hame heda: i. Be Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, ‘Hina (Gode) da na Hina Gode Ema amane sia: i, ‘Na lobodafadili fili,
35 while I completely defeat [MTY] your enemies.’”
ouesalu, amoganini Dia ha lai dunu amo Dia emo ligisisu hamoma: ne na da hasalimu,’ amane sia: i.
36 [Peter concluded], “So I [want you and] all [other] Israelites [MTY] to acknowledge that God has caused this Jesus to be both [our] Lord/Ruler and the Messiah. [But God considers that] you are the ones who nailed Jesus to a cross.”
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu huluane, dawa: ma! Yesu, (dilia da bulufalegeiga fuga: i amo dunu), Gode da E Hina Gode amola Mesaia, hamoi dagoi!”
37 When the people heard what [Peter said], they felt very guilty [IDM]. So they asked him and the other apostles, “Fellow-countrymen, what should we [(exc)] do [so that God will forgive us]?”
Dunu huluane, amo sia: nababeba: le, ilia dogo dadiga gala: i agoane se bagade nabi. Ilia da Bida amola eno asunasi dunu ilima amane adole ba: i. “Nola! Ninia adi hamoma: bela: ?”
38 Peter [answered] them, “Each of you should turn away from your sinful behavior. Then [we(exc)] will baptize you, if [you now believe] in Jesus Christ. Then [God] will give you the Holy Spirit.
Bida da ilima bu adole i, “Dilia afae afae dilia wadela: i hou yolesili, sinidigili, Godema buhagima. Amasea, Yesu Gelesu Ea Dioba: le, ba: bodaise hamoma. E da dilia wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofole, Gode Ea hahawane dogolegele iasu liligi (Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala) dilima imunu.
39 [God] has promised [to do that] [MTY] for you and your descendants, and for all [others who believe in him], even those who [live] far away [from here]. The Lord our God [will give his Spirit] to everyone whom he invites [to become his people]!”
Amo hahawane iasu, Gode da dilima, dilia mano, amola sedaga esala dunu, ilima imunusa: E da ilegele sia: i galu. Ninia Hina Gode da nowa dunuma E da misa: ne sia: sa, E da amo dunuma imunu.”
40 Peter spoke much more [and] spoke strongly/forcefully to them. He pleaded with them, “[Ask God] to save you [so that he will not punish you when he punishes] these evil people [who have rejected Jesus]!”
Bida da Godema misa: ne sia: bagade ilima olelei. E amane sia: i, “Se dabe iasu bagade da dilia wadela: i fi dunu ilima doaga: mu. Amo mae lama: ne, dilia hou afadenema!”
41 So the people who believed Peter’s message were baptized. There were about 3,000 [SYN] [who] joined the group [of believers] that day.
Dunu bagohame da ea sia: dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le, hanoga fane salasu hou hamoi. Amo esoha dunu 3000 agoane, ilia da Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu gilisisu ilima madelai dagoi.
42 They continually obeyed what the apostles taught, and they very frequently met together [with the other believers]. And they continually ate [together and celebrated the Lord’s Supper], and continually prayed [together].
Ilia da eso huluane asunasi dunu ilia olelesu nabasu. Ilia gilisili, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi hamone, Yesu Ea lolo nawane Godema sia: ne gadolalu.
43 All the people [SYN] [who were in Jerusalem] were greatly revering [God because] the apostles were frequently doing many kinds of miraculous things.
Asunasi dunu da musa: hame ba: su gasa bagade dawa: digima: ne olelesu bagohame hamobeba: le, dunu huluane da bagadewane fofogadigi.
44 All of those who believed [in Jesus] were united [and regularly met] together. They were also sharing everything that they had with one another.
Dafawaneyale dawa: su dunu huluane gilisili fi afadafa hamone, ilia liligi huluane gilisili gagui.
45 [From time to time some of] them sold [some of] their land and [some of the other] things that they owned, and they would give [some of] the money [from what they sold] to others [among them], according to what they needed.
Ilia da soge, diasu amola eno liligi bidi lale, amo muni lai da ilia fi ganodini hame gagui dunu ilima iasu.
46 Every day they continued meeting together in the temple [area]. And every day they gladly and generously shared their food [SYN] [with each other], as they ate together [and celebrated the Lord’s Supper] in their houses.
Eso huluane ilia Debolo Diasu ganodini gilisisu. Amola ilia diasudafa amo ganodini ilia ha: i nanu, ilia hou fonobole, hahawane nasu.
47 [As they did so], they were praising God, and all the [other] people [in Jerusalem] were [thinking] favorably about them. [As those things were happening], every day the Lord [Jesus] increased the number of people who were being saved {whom he was saving} [from the guilt of their sins].
Eso huluane ilia Godema nodone sia: su. Dunu huluane da ilima hahawane galu. Amola eso huluane Hina Gode Yesu da ilia gilisisuma madelagima: ne, eno gaga: i dunu hiougi.
