Acts 1
1 The former book I wrote, Theophilus, told all that Jesus began to do and to teach,
Nínú ìwé mi ìṣáájú, Teofilu, ni mo ti kọ ní ti ohun gbogbo tí Jesu bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ṣe àti kọ́
2 until the day that he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen.
títí ó fi di ọjọ́ tí a gbà á lọ sókè ọ̀run, lẹ́yìn tí ó ti ti ipa Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ pàṣẹ fún àwọn aposteli tí ó yàn.
3 After his suffering, he presented himself alive to them with many convincing proofs. For forty days he appeared to them, and he spoke about the kingdom of God.
Lẹ́yìn ìjìyà rẹ̀, ó fi ara rẹ̀ hàn fún wọn àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹ̀rí tí ó dájú pé òun wà láààyè. Ó fi ara hàn wọ́n fún ogójì ọjọ́, ó sì sọ̀rọ̀ nípa ìjọba Ọlọ́run.
4 When he was meeting together with them, he commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, about which, he said, “You heard from me
Ní àkókò kan bí ó sì ti ń jẹun pẹ̀lú wọn, ó pàṣẹ yìí fún wọn, “Ẹ má ṣe kúrò ní Jerusalẹmu, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ dúró de ìlérí tí Baba mi ṣe ìlérí, èyí tí ẹ̀yin tí gbọ́ lẹ́nu mi.
5 that John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized in the Holy Spirit in a few days.”
Nítorí Johanu fi omi bamitiisi yín, ṣùgbọ́n ní ọjọ́ díẹ̀ sí i, a o fi Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ bamitiisi yín.”
6 When they were assembled together they asked him, “Lord, is this the time you will restore the kingdom to Israel?”
Nítorí náà, nígbà tí wọ́n sì péjọpọ̀, wọn bi í léèrè pé, “Olúwa, láti ìgbà yí lọ ìwọ yóò ha mú ìjọba padà fún Israẹli bí?”
7 He said to them, “It is not for you to know the times or the seasons which the Father has determined by his own authority.
Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Kì í ṣe tiyín ni láti mọ àkókò tàbí ìgbà tí Baba ti yàn nípa àṣẹ òun tìkára rẹ̀.
8 But you will receive power, when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin yóò gba agbára, nígbà tí Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ bá bà lé e yín; ẹ̀yin yóò sì máa ṣe ẹlẹ́rìí mi ni Jerusalẹmu, àti ní gbogbo Judea, àti ní Samaria, àti títí dé òpin ilẹ̀ ayé.”
9 When the Lord Jesus had said these things, as they were looking up, he was raised up, and a cloud hid him from their eyes.
Nígbà tí ó sì tí wí nǹkan wọ̀nyí, a gbà á sókè lójú wọn; ìkùùkuu àwọsánmọ̀ sì gbà á kúrò lójú wọn.
10 While they were looking intensely to heaven as he went, suddenly, two men stood by them in white clothing.
Bí wọ́n sì ti tẹjúmọ́ ojú ọ̀run bí ó ti ń lọ sókè, lójijì, àwọn ọkùnrin méjì tí ó wọ aṣọ funfun dúró létí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn.
11 They said, “You men of Galilee, why do you stand here looking into heaven? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven, will return in the same manner as you saw him going into heaven.”
Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ẹ̀yin ara Galili, èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi dúró tí ẹ̀ ń wo ojú ọ̀run? Jesu yìí, tí a gbà sókè ọ̀run kúrò lọ́wọ́ yín, yóò padà bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ ti rí tí ó ń lọ sì ọ̀run.”
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives, which is near to Jerusalem, a Sabbath day's journey.
Lẹ́yìn náà ni wọ́n padà sí Jerusalẹmu láti orí òkè ti a ń pè ni olifi, tí ó tó ìwọ̀n ìrìn ọjọ́ ìsinmi kan.
13 When they arrived, they went up into the upper chamber, where they were staying. They were Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James.
Nígbà tí wọn sì wọlé, wọn lọ sí iyàrá òkè, níbi tí wọ́n ń gbé. Àwọn tó wà níbẹ̀ ni: Peteru, Jakọbu, Johanu àti Anderu; Filipi àti Tomasi; Bartolomeu àti Matiu; Jakọbu ọmọ Alfeu, Simoni Sealoti, àti Judasi arákùnrin Jakọbu.
14 They were all united as one, as they diligently continued in prayer. Included were the women, Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
Gbogbo àwọn wọ̀nyí pẹ̀lú àwọn obìnrin àti Maria ìyá Jesu àti àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ fi ọkàn kan dúró láti máa gbàdúrà.
15 In those days Peter stood up in the midst of the brothers, about 120 people, and said,
Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀nyí ni Peteru sí dìde dúró láàrín àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn (iye àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí jẹ́ ọgọ́fà)
16 “Brothers, it was necessary that the scripture should be fulfilled, that the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who guided the ones who arrested Jesus.
ó wí pé, “Ẹ̀yin ará, ìwé mímọ́ kò lè ṣe kí ó má ṣẹ, èyí tí Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ láti ẹnu Dafidi nípa Judasi, tí ó ṣe atọ́nà fún àwọn tí ó mú Jesu.
17 For he was one of us and received his share of the benefits of this ministry.”
Nítorí ọ̀kan nínú wa ni òun ń ṣe tẹ́lẹ̀, òun sì ní ìpín nínú iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ yìí.”
18 (Now this man bought a field with the earnings he received for his wickedness, and there he fell headfirst, and his body burst open, and all his intestines poured out.
(Judasi fi èrè àìṣòótọ́ rẹ̀ ra ilẹ̀ kan; nígbà tí ó sì ṣubú ni ògèdèǹgbé, ó bẹ́ ní agbede-méjì, gbogbo ìfun rẹ̀ sì tú jáde.
19 All those living in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language “Akeldama,” that is, “Field of Blood.”)
Ó si di mí mọ̀ fún gbogbo àwọn ti ń gbé Jerusalẹmu; nítorí náà ni wọ́n fi ń pè ilẹ̀ náà ni Alkedama ní èdè wọn, èyí sì ni, Ilẹ̀ Ẹ̀jẹ̀.)
20 “For it is written in the Book of Psalms, 'Let his field be made desolate, and do not let even one person live there'; 'Let someone else take his position of leadership.'
Peteru sì wí pé, “Nítorí a ti kọ ọ́ nípa rẹ̀ nínú Ìwé Saamu pé, “‘Jẹ́ ki ibùgbé rẹ̀ di ahoro, kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ṣe gbé inú rẹ̀,’ àti, “‘Ipò rẹ̀ ni kí ẹlòmíràn kí ó gbà.’
21 It is necessary, therefore, that one of the men who accompanied us all the time the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Nítorí náà, ó di dandan láti yan ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí ti ń bá wa rìn ni gbogbo àkókò tí Jesu Olúwa ń wọlé, tí ó sì jáde láàrín wa.
22 beginning from the baptism of John to the day that he was taken up from us, must be a witness with us of his resurrection.”
Bẹ́ẹ̀ láti ìgbà bamitiisi Johanu títí ó fi di ọjọ́ náà ti a gbe é lọ sókè kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wa. Ó yẹ kí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn wọ̀nyí ṣe ẹlẹ́rìí àjíǹde rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú wa.”
23 They put forward two men, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also named Justus, and Matthias.
Wọn sì yan àwọn méjì, Josẹfu tí a ń pè ní Barsaba (ẹni tí a sọ àpèlé rẹ̀ ni Justu) àti Mattia.
24 They prayed and said, “You, Lord, know the hearts of all people, so reveal which of these two is the one whom you have chosen
Wọn sì gbàdúrà, wọn sì wí pé, “Olúwa, ìwọ mọ ọkàn gbogbo ènìyàn, fihàn wá nínú àwọn méjì yìí, èwo ni ìwọ yàn
25 to take the place in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned away to go to his own place.”
kí ó lè gba ipò nínú iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ aposteli yìí, èyí tí Judasi kúrò nínú rẹ̀, ki òun kí ó lè lọ sí ipò ti ara rẹ̀.”
26 They cast lots for them, and the lot fell to Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Wọ́n sì dìbò fún wọn; ìbò sí mú Mattia; a sì kà á mọ́ àwọn aposteli mọ́kànlá.
