Acts 2
1 On the day when [the Jews were celebrating the] Pentecost [festival], the [believers] were all together in one place [in Jerusalem].
Unu uwui Ufentacus wa eh vat uwe wa orno a hira inde.
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.
Wa dusa wa kunna u gumurka u ire mu gusi ni pupur ni dusa ni myina a kura me sa cikini.
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.
Are myiran kasi urah a harzina, atu, ani ceh ni konda avi anyimo a we me.
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].
Wa myica in bibe bi riri vat uwe wa tunguno u boo a myiran me sa a harsi we ni.
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.
Ayimo urishlima are a yahudawa rani anu. tarsa Asere, ko da ba anyimo uneh.
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.
Sa wa kunna ugumurka ugino me, vat nigoru na nu me orno ahira a inde barki wa ko a vi ma zin in tize in ni myiran nu me.
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].
Imum me i cukuno we i bosa utize, wnagu,' kadura, na vat u weme sa wa zin tize ti geme da anu uGalatiya wani ba.
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]
Aneni ti kunna weh, konda vi ma boo nyiran na hira me sa ayo meni.
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.
Haru be anu, ufaritiya, wan anu Elamawa nan anu Ubagadaza wan anu Uyahudiya, wan anu Fantus nan Asiya.
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.
Nan anu Firijiya, wan anu Banfiliya, nan anu Nasar, nan adesa wa ra ati kira ti Kurane a mayanga mu Libiya, nan na genu sa wa suri Uroma, ma Yahudawa an de sa wa ribe ati Yahudanci.
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?”
Makaritawa wan ma Larabawa vat ta kuna we wa zin unu boo abanga Asre inti lem ti ti pin turu.
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?”
Vat uwe biyau ba mekibwe, wa gusi acece nyanini ya zige me.
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!”
Aye wa wuzi ni basa wa gu,” wa sa ubere uni.
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!
Bitrus ma hiri ma tunno anu ukirau unu inde, ma nyeze ni myira, magu we,” Anu yahudiya nan a de sa wa ra a Urushalima, rusani imum igeme, rikani titui a tize tum.
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!
Ana geme dawa sa ubere ba kasi u hira ushi me.
16 Instead, [what has happened to us is] the [miraculous] thing that the prophet Joel wrote about [long ago]. [Joel wrote]: God says,
Imum be sa Yowel ma gu.
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].
Asere a gu, indi wuu bi be bi riri a nyimo anabu vat, ahana wan na ruma vat wadi buu tize tum, i nyani i shi me wadi iri imumu i ge sa wa mu ira ba, Cukoro wadi wuzi ti ro.
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.
A tiye ti geme indi wu we bi be biriri wadi buu imum sa i eze aje aru.
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].
Indi bezi we imum idandang ya sesere wani ige sa ira adizi, maye, urah, matum wan mu cingo.
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].
Zuwui udi gamirka ucukuno Maree, Upeh uhana Maye, Uwui Ogomo Asere uku eh, uwui udang u gino me.
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].}’”
Abine ani koda avi madi wuzi biringara anyimo aniza na Asere unu bura uru.
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].
Anu Isaraila, kuna ni, Yesu unu Unazarat, de sa Asere a nya shi barki uhem ume, ahira imum idang wan imum i busa itize sa ma wuzi anyimo a shi me, kasi urusa ushi me.
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.
Yesu ugino me Aserea nya shi me unu rusa ume shi igankirka me utiti, a tari tanu zatu urusa Asere.
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.”
De sa Asere a hirza me unu ui, ma sopi me iwono iginome, barki iwono ya bari i inta me ba.
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].
Dauda magu, vat uganiya in hirsa Asere aje am, ma ra atari ti na ree tm barki kti in urno.
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]).
Barki ani me, iriba im izi pau, in zin ini riba i rum sarki i binani, in ra anyimo ani pum, indi wuzi ivai sarki ibinani.
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)
Barki mada hem in mi “iriba im iribe u ra ba, uda kuri hem iriba i we me iwici ba. (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].”
Wa be zum una iuai, udi kuri u wum i myinca ini riba irum a mu henu mu we me.
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.
Ni henu, in da ki in boo shi tize in riba ka inde an ce ni ucokoro uru Dauda, ma wi vat me, kani igeme icau imeme ira ahira aru.
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].)
Barki ani me, mazi unu kurzizo utize ta Asere mani, Asere a toniko me, madi tari uye a nyimo ni kura nu meme ahira ti cukun ta Asere.
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)
Ma ira ma kuri mabuki abanga uhira u Yesu a nyimo iwono, agi madi ceki me anyimo ura ba,”ni pum nu meme ni da wicu ba. (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.
Yesu ugeme, sa Asere a hirza me, unu rusa uru.
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.
Barki sa a yeze me ma cukuno atari tina reh ta Asere, anyimo a bibe bi riri ahira aco, ma kwonko bi be biriri unu kunna ushime.
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 Dauda mani ma nyene Asere ba, ma eh inice nu mume ma gu,”Asere a gunna Asere am cukuno a tari tina reh tum.
35 while I completely defeat [MTY] your enemies.’”
Sede sa mapalki ana nu eru nu meme.
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.”
Barki ane ani ani, na vat akura Isaraila wa rusi Asere akurzo me ma cukuno Asere nan unu bura uru de sa ya gankirka me.
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]?”
Sa wa kunna imum igeme, tize me ti tumi we a muriba mu we me, wa gu Butrus wan nu kasu anu tarsa UYesu,”Ni henu nyanini tidi wuzi?
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.
Bitrus ma gu we, kabirka ni tize ta Sere a zoro shi, koda avi a nyimo ni za ni Yesu unu ubura uru madi kwiji ma dini vat, idi kabi u nyanki ubi be biriri.
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]!”
Ubuka ugino me bark shewani, wan na ahana ashime, nan andesa wa zi pit, an desa Ogomo Asere aru ma titi we.
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]!”
Ma boo we tize gwardang, ma boo ma kingizini be mag” Bura ni ace ashime uneh uneh ubari ugeme.
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.
Ba wa kabi tizeme, a zorowe wa kinki in na nu akura- kuri a taru.
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].
Wa dusa wa ri ajenan anu tarsa uYesu wan anu dungara uni henu a nyimo a tanume, wan upusa ubiredi nan biringara.
43 All the people [SYN] [who were in Jerusalem] were greatly revering [God because] the apostles were frequently doing many kinds of miraculous things.
Biyau bi meki kodi ya unu, imumu i basa u tize gwardan anu tarsa u Yesu wa wuzi.
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.
Vat adesa wa hem wa zi ni gome wa kurinwa wuzi imumu inde me.
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.
Wa zi zizi ti runga tu we me, wa hari konda vi ikirfi me, i binani u nyara u konda avi.
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.
Kondi uya uwui wadi ha anyimo udenge Asere, wa pusi ubiredi ati kura ini riba i inde wa ri ini riba irum wanu toto iriba.
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].
Wa nonzo Asere, wa kuri wa zin in mayee ma rum ahira anu. Asere a kinkiwe adesa a bura sa we a nyimo ni za ni Yesu kondi uya uwui.
