Acts 12
1 Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.
| تَسْمِنْ سَمَیے ہیرودْراجو مَنْڈَلْیاح کِیَجَّنیبھْیو دُحکھَں داتُں پْرارَبھَتْ۔ |
2 He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
| وِشیشَتو یوہَنَح سودَرَں یاکُوبَں کَرَوالاگھاتینْ ہَتَوانْ۔ |
3 When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.
| تَسْمادْ یِہُودِییاح سَنْتُشْٹا اَبھَوَنْ اِتِ وِجْنایَ سَ پِتَرَمَپِ دھَرْتُّں گَتَوانْ۔ |
4 When he had arrested him, he put him in prison and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
| تَدا کِنْوَشُونْیَپُوپوتْسَوَسَمَیَ اُپاتِشْٹَتْ؛ اَتَ اُتْسَوے گَتے سَتِ لوکاناں سَمَکْشَں تَں بَہِرانییّامِیتِ مَنَسِ سْتھِرِیکرِتْیَ سَ تَں دھارَیِتْوا رَکْشْنارْتھَمْ ییشامْ ایکَیکَسَںگھے چَتْوارو جَناح سَنْتِ تیشاں چَتُرْناں رَکْشَکَسَںگھاناں سَمِیپے تَں سَمَرْپْیَ کارایاں سْتھاپِتَوانْ۔ |
5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
| کِنْتُں پِتَرَسْیَ کاراسْتھِتِکارَناتْ مَنْڈَلْیا لوکا اَوِشْرامَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ سَمِیپے پْرارْتھَیَنْتَ۔ |
6 The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.
| اَنَنْتَرَں ہیرودِ تَں بَہِرانایِتُں اُدْیَتے سَتِ تَسْیاں راتْرَو پِتَرو رَکْشَکَدْوَیَمَدھْیَسْتھانے شرِنْکھَلَدْوَیینَ بَدّھوَح سَنْ نِدْرِتَ آسِیتْ، دَووارِکاشْچَ کارایاح سَمُّکھے تِشْٹھَنَتو دْوارَمْ اَرَکْشِشُح۔ |
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Stand up quickly!” His chains fell off his hands.
| ایتَسْمِنْ سَمَیے پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ دُوتے سَمُپَسْتھِتے کارا دِیپْتِمَتِی جاتا؛ تَتَح سَ دُوتَح پِتَرَسْیَ کُکْشاواواتَں کرِتْوا تَں جاگَرَیِتْوا بھاشِتَوانْ تُورْنَمُتِّشْٹھَ؛ تَتَسْتَسْیَ ہَسْتَسْتھَشرِنْکھَلَدْوَیَں گَلَتْ پَتِتَں۔ |
8 The angel said to him, “Get dressed and put on your sandals.” He did so. He said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
| سَ دُوتَسْتَمَوَدَتْ، بَدّھَکَٹِح سَنْ پادَیوح پادُکے اَرْپَیَ؛ تینَ تَتھا کرِتے سَتِ دُوتَسْتَمْ اُکْتَوانْ گاتْرِییَوَسْتْرَں گاتْرے نِدھایَ مَمَ پَشْچادْ ایہِ۔ |
9 And he went out and followed him. He didn’t know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
| تَتَح پِتَرَسْتَسْیَ پَشْچادْ وْرَجَنَ بَہِرَگَچّھَتْ، کِنْتُ دُوتینَ کَرْمَّیتَتْ کرِتَمِتِ سَتْیَمَجْناتْوا سْوَپْنَدَرْشَنَں جْناتَوانْ۔ |
10 When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.
| اِتّھَں تَو پْرَتھَماں دْوِتِییانْچَ کاراں لَنْگھِتْوا یینَ لَوہَنِرْمِّتَدْوارینَ نَگَرَں گَمْیَتے تَتْسَمِیپَں پْراپْنُتاں؛ تَتَسْتَسْیَ کَواٹَں سْوَیَں مُکْتَمَبھَوَتْ تَتَسْتَو تَتْسْتھانادْ بَہِ رْبھُوتْوا مارْگَیکَسْیَ سِیماں یاوَدْ گَتَو؛ تَتوکَسْماتْ سَ دُوتَح پِتَرَں تْیَکْتَوانْ۔ |
11 When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”
| تَدا سَ چیتَناں پْراپْیَ کَتھِتَوانْ نِجَدُوتَں پْرَہِتْیَ پَرَمیشْوَرو ہیرودو ہَسْتادْ یِہُودِییَلوکاناں سَرْوّاشایاشْچَ ماں سَمُدّھرِتَوانْ اِتْیَہَں نِشْچَیَں جْناتَوانْ۔ |
12 Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
| سَ وِوِچْیَ مارْکَنامْرا وِکھْیاتَسْیَ یوہَنو ماتُ رْمَرِیَمو یَسْمِنْ گرِہے بَہَوَح سَمْبھُویَ پْرارْتھَیَنْتَ تَنِّویشَنَں گَتَح۔ |
13 When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
| پِتَرینَ بَہِرْدْوارَ آہَتے سَتِ روداناما بالِکا دْرَشْٹُں گَتا۔ |
14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, she didn’t open the gate for joy, but ran in and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
| تَتَح پِتَرَسْیَ سْوَرَں شْرُوا سا ہَرْشَیُکْتا سَتِی دْوارَں نَ موچَیِتْوا پِتَرو دْوارے تِشْٹھَتِیتِ وارْتّاں وَکْتُمْ اَبھْیَنْتَرَں دھاوِتْوا گَتَوَتِی۔ |
15 They said to her, “You are crazy!” But she insisted that it was so. They said, “It is his angel.”
| تے پْراووچَنْ تْوَمُنْمَتّا جاتاسِ کِنْتُ سا مُہُرْمُہُرُکْتَوَتِی سَتْیَمیوَیتَتْ۔ |
16 But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him and were amazed.
| تَدا تے کَتھِتَوَنْتَسْتَرْہِ تَسْیَ دُوتو بھَویتْ۔ |
17 But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place.
| پِتَرو دْوارَماہَتَوانْ ایتَسْمِنَّنْتَرے دْوارَں موچَیِتْوا پِتَرَں درِشْٹْوا وِسْمَیَں پْراپْتاح۔ |
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
| تَتَح پِتَرو نِحشَبْدَں سْتھاتُں تانْ پْرَتِ ہَسْتینَ سَنْکیتَں کرِتْوا پَرَمیشْوَرو یینَ پْرَکارینَ تَں کارایا اُدّھرِتْیانِیتَوانْ تَسْیَ ورِتّانْتَں تانَجْناپَیَتْ، یُویَں گَتْوا یاکُبَں بھْراترِگَنَنْچَ وارْتّامیتاں وَدَتیتْیُکْتا سْتھانانْتَرَں پْرَسْتھِتَوانْ۔ |
19 When Herod had sought for him and didn’t find him, he examined the guards, then commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
| پْرَبھاتے سَتِ پِتَرَح کْوَ گَتَ اِتْیَتْرَ رَکْشَکاناں مَدھْیے مَہانْ کَلَہو جاتَح۔ |
20 Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.
| ہیرودْ بَہُ مرِگَیِتْوا تَسْیودّیشے نَ پْراپْتے سَتِ رَکْشَکانْ سَںپرِچّھیَ تیشاں پْرانانْ ہَنْتُمْ آدِشْٹَوانْ۔ |
21 On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
| پَشْچاتْ سَ یِہُودِییَپْرَدیشاتْ کَیسَرِیانَگَرَں گَتْوا تَتْراواتِشْٹھَتْ۔ |
22 The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
| سورَسِیدونَدیشَیو رْلوکیبھْیو ہیرودِ یُیُتْسَو سَتِ تے سَرْوَّ ایکَمَنْتْرَناح سَنْتَسْتَسْیَ سَمِیپَ اُپَسْتھایَ لْواسْتَنامانَں تَسْیَ وَسْتْرَگرِہادھِیشَں سَہایَں کرِتْوا ہیرودا سارْدّھَں سَنْدھِں پْرارْتھَیَنْتَ یَتَسْتَسْیَ راجْنو دیشینَ تیشاں دیشِییاناں بھَرَنَمْ اَبھَوَتْں |
23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.
| اَتَح کُتْرَچِنْ نِرُپِتَدِنے ہیرودْ راجَکِییَں پَرِچّھَدَں پَرِدھایَ سِںہاسَنے سَمُپَوِشْیَ تانْ پْرَتِ کَتھامْ اُکْتَوانْ۔ |
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
| تَتو لوکا اُچَّیحکارَں پْرَتْیَوَدَنْ، ایشَ مَنُجَرَوو نَ ہِ، اِیشْوَرِییَرَوَح۔ |
25 Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John who was called Mark.
| تَدا ہیرودْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ سَمّانَں ناکَروتْ؛ تَسْمادّھیتوح پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ دُوتو ہَٹھاتْ تَں پْراہَرَتْ تینَیوَ سَ کِیٹَیح کْشِینَح سَنْ پْرانانْ اَجَہاتْ۔ کِنْتْوِیشْوَرَسْیَ کَتھا دیشَں وْیاپْیَ پْرَبَلابھَوَتْ۔ تَتَح پَرَں بَرْنَبّاشَولَو یَسْیَ کَرْمَّنو بھارَں پْراپْنُتاں تابھْیاں تَسْمِنْ سَمْپادِتے سَتِ مارْکَنامْنا وِکھْیاتو یو یوہَنْ تَں سَنْگِنَں کرِتْوا یِرُوشالَمْنَگَراتْ پْرَتْیاگَتَو۔ |
