Acts 3
1 [One day] Peter and John were going to the Temple [courtyard]. It was three o’clock in the afternoon, which was the time when people prayed [there publicly].
Sie len ah Peter ac John som nu in Tempul ke ao tolu tafun len tok, ke pacl in pre.
2 There was a man there who had been lame from the time he was born. He [was sitting by] the gate called Beautiful [Gate], at the entrance to the Temple [area]. People put him there every day, so that he could ask those who were entering [or leaving] the temple courtyard to give him some money.
Ke eltal sun mutunoa su pangpang Mutunoa Oasku, eltal liye sie mukul muta we, su nuna ul nial oe ke el isusla me. Len nukewa ac utukla el nu ke mutunoa sac elan muta ngusr mani sin mwet su utyak nu in Tempul uh.
3 As Peter and John were about to enter [the Temple courtyard], the lame man saw them and asked them several times to give him some money. (OR, The lame man said to them several times, “Please give me some money!”)
Ke el liye lah Peter ac John ac utyak, el ngisraltal.
4 As Peter and John looked directly at him, Peter said to him, “Look at us!”
Eltal ngetang suilya, na Peter el fahk nu sel, “Ngetma nu sesr!”
5 So he looked directly at them, expecting to get some [money] from them.
Na el ngetang ac nunku mu eltal ac kital.
6 Then Peter said to him, “I do not have any money [MTY], but what I [can do], I will [do] for you. Jesus Christ, [who was] from Nazareth [town], has authorized [MTY] me [to heal you! So get up and] walk!”
Ac Peter el fahk nu sel, “Wangin na pwaye mani yuruk, tuh nga ac sot nu sum ma su oasr yuruk: Ke inen Jesus Christ lun Nazareth, nga sap kom in tuyak ac fahsr!”
7 Then Peter grasped the man’s right hand and helped him to stand up. Immediately the man’s feet and ankles became strong.
Na el sruokya lac paol layot, ac tulokunulak. In pacl sacna nial ac kapsran nial kui.
8 He jumped up and began to walk! Then he entered the Temple [area] with them, walking and leaping and praising God!
El sroak tu, ac mutawauk in fahsr. Na el welultal utyak nu in Tempul, fahsr ac srosro ac kaksakin God.
9 All the people [there] saw that man walking and praising God.
Mwet in acn sac liye ke el fahsr ac kaksakin God,
10 They recognized that he was the man who used to sit at the Beautiful Gate in the Temple [courtyard] and ask [people] for money! So all the people there were greatly amazed at what had happened to him.
ac ke elos akilenak lah el pa mwet ul se ma muta ngusr ke Mutunoa Oasku ah, elos nukewa lut ac fwefela ke ma sikyak nu sel.
11 As the man clung to Peter and John, all the people were so surprised [that they did not know what to think] So they ran to the two apostles at the place [in the Temple courtyard] that is called {that [people] call} Solomon’s Porch.
Ke mwet sac sripsriplana kacl Peter ac John fin Sawalsrisr lal Solomon, mwet uh fwefela ac kasrusr nu yoroltal.
12 When Peter saw that, he said to the crowd, “Fellow Israelites, (you should not be surprised about what has happened to this man!/why are you so surprised about what has happened to this man?) [RHQ] And you should not stare at us, either! You seem to [RHQ] think that the two of us enabled this man to walk because we [(exc)] ourselves are powerful or because we please God very much!
Ke Peter el liye mwet uh, el fahk nu selos, “Mwet Israel wiasr, efu ku kowos lut ke ma inge, ac efu kowos ku ngetma suikuti? Ya kowos nunku mu ku lasr, ku wo lasr sifacna pa oru ma inge?
13 [So I will tell you what is really happening]. Our ancestors, including Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, worshipped God. And now he has greatly honored Jesus, who always served him. Your [leaders] brought Jesus [to the governor, Pilate], so that [his soldiers would kill him]. And [God considers that] in front of Pilate you [were the ones who rejected] Jesus [as your king], after Pilate had decided that he should release Jesus.
God lal Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob, God lun mwet matu lasr somla, pa nawella Jesus, Mwet Kulansap lal, ke wolana mutal. Tusruktu kowos tuh eisalang nu sin leum fulat lun acn uh, ac kowos lusulla ye mutal Pilate, finne Pilate el tuh sulela tari in aksukosokyalla.
14 [Although Jesus] always did what was right/just and good, you rejected him. [Pilate wanted to release him, but] you urgently asked Pilate to release (a murderer/someone who had killed people)!
Jesus el sie mwet mutal ac suwoswos, a kowos srungal ac sisella, ac siyuk sel Pilate elan wi nunak lowos an ac tulala sie mwet akmas.
15 [God considers that] you killed [Jesus], the one who gives people [eternal] life. But God has greatly honored him (by causing him to become alive again after he died/by raising him from the dead). Many of us saw [him after that, and now] we [(exc)] are telling [you] about it.
Kowos tuh uniya mwet se ma ac kol mwet uh nu ke moul, tuh pa God El akmoulyalak liki misa — ac kut mwet loh nu ke ma inge.
16 It is because [we two] trusted in what Jesus [MTY, PRS] [could do, that he] made this man, whom you see and know, strong again. Yes, it is because we [(exc)] trusted in Jesus that he has completely healed this man for all of you to see.”
Ku lun inen Jesus pa sang ku nu sin mwet ul se inge. Sikyak ma su kowos liye ac etu inge ke sripen lulalfongi ke inel. Lulalfongi ke Jesus pa akkeyalla, oana ke kowos nukewa liye.
17 “Now, my fellow-countrymen, I know that you and your leaders did that [to Jesus] because you [and they] did not know [that he was the Messiah].
“Ac inge, mwet lili luk, nga etu lah ma kowos ac mwet kol lowos tuh oru nu sin Jesus, orekla ke sripen nikin lowos.
18 However, [your putting him to death] was what God had predicted that people would do. [Long ago] he told all the prophets [MTY] to write [what people would do to the Messiah. They wrote] that the Messiah, whom God [would send], would suffer [and die].
God El nuna fahkak oemeet sin mwet palu nukewa lah Christ el ac enenu in keok; ac El akpwayei ke ma sikyak inge.
19 So, turn away from your sinful behavior and ask God [to help you] do what pleases [him], in order that he may completely forgive you for your sins.
Ke ma inge, kowos in auliyak ac forla nu sin God, tuh El fah nunak munas ke ma koluk lowos. Kowos fin auliyak,
20 [If you do that], there will be times [when you will know that] the Lord [God is] helping [you]. And some day he will [again] send back [to earth] the Messiah, whom he appointed for you. That person is Jesus.
na Leum God El ac fah oru in oasr pacl in aksasuyeyuk ngunuwos, ac El ac fah supwalma Jesus, aok Christ su El nu sulella tari keiwos.
21 Jesus must stay in heaven until the time when God will cause all that he has created to become new. Long ago God promised [to do that, and] he chose holy prophets to tell [that to people]. (aiōn g165)
Enenu elan mutana inkusrao nwe ke na sun pacl fal in aksasuyeyuk ma nukewa, oana ke God El tuh wulela meet sin mwet palu mutal lal. (aiōn g165)
22 For [example, the prophet] Moses said [this about the Messiah]: ‘The Lord (your God/the God whom you [worship]) will cause someone to become a prophet to tell you [God’s message. God will send him] as [he sent] me, [and he will be] from among your own people. You must listen to everything that this prophet tells you [and obey him] [SYN].
Mweyen Moses el tuh fahk, ‘Leum God lowos El ac fah supwama sie mwet palu oana ke El tuh supweyume, ac el ac fah siena sin mwet lowos. Kowos enenu in akos ma nukewa ma el sap kowos in oru.
23 [Those who] do not listen to [that prophet and obey] him will no longer belong to God’s people, and [God] will get rid of them’.”
Kutena mwet su tia akos mwet palu sac ac fah sriyukla liki mwet lun God uh, ac kunausyukla.’
24 [Peter continued], “All the prophets have told [about what would happen during] the time [MTY] [in which we(inc) are living. Those prophets include] Samuel [and all the others who] later also spoke [about these events] before they happened.
Ac mwet palu nukewa su oasr kas sin God nu se, welulang pac Samuel ac elos su tuku tokol, elos tuh wi fahkelik ma sikyak in pacl inge uh.
25 You [as well as we(exc)] are the people [to whom God sent the Messiah, as] the prophets said [MTY] [that he would]. And when God strongly promised [to bless] our ancestors, he also surely promised to bless you. He said to Abraham [concerning the Messiah], ‘[I] will bless all people on the earth as a result of [what] your descendant [will do].’”
Wuleang lun God ma El tuh orala sin mwet palu lal, ma inge ma nu suwos, ac kowos wi pac ipeis ke wulela se su God El tuh oakiya yurin mwet matu lowos meet ah. Oana ke El tuh fahk nu sel Abraham mu, ‘Ke fita lom nga fah akinsewowoye mwet nukewa faclu.’
26 [Peter concluded], “[So] when God sent [to the earth] (Jesus, the one who always obeys him/his servant Jesus), he sent him first to you [Israelites] to bless you. [God will] enable you to stop doing what is wicked [and to start doing what pleases him].”
Ouinge God El tuh sulela Mwet Kulansap se lal, ac supwalma nu yuruwos emeet, in tuh akinsewowoye kowos ke el oru kowos nukewa in forla liki orekma koluk lowos.”
