Atũmwo 12
1 Na rĩrĩ, ihinda-inĩ rĩu nĩguo Mũthamaki Herode aanyiitire andũ amwe a kanitha, arĩ na muoroto wa kũmanyariira.
Nowe about that time, Herod the King stretched forth his hands to vexe certaine of the Church,
2 Akĩũragithia Jakubu, mũrũ wa nyina na Johana na rũhiũ rwa njora.
And he killed Iames the brother of Iohn with the sword.
3 Na rĩrĩa oonire ũhoro ũcio nĩwakenia Ayahudi-rĩ, akĩnyiitithia Petero o nake. Ũndũ ũcio wekĩkire hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate Ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia.
And when he sawe that it pleased the Iewes, he proceeded further, to take Peter also (then were the dayes of vnleauened bread.)
4 Aarĩkia kũmũnyiitithia, akĩmũikia njeera akĩmũneana arangĩrwo nĩ ikundi inya cia thigari, o gĩkundi kĩrĩ gĩa thigari inya. Herode eendaga amũrehe mbere ya mũingĩ thuutha wa Gĩathĩ gĩa Bathaka.
And when he had caught him, he put him in prison, and deliuered him to foure quaternions of souldiers to be kept, intending after the Passeouer to bring him foorth to the people.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Petero akĩhingĩrwo njeera, no kanitha nĩwahooyaga Ngai ũtegũtigithĩria nĩ ũndũ wake.
So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer was made of ye Church vnto God for him.
6 Na ũtukũ ũrĩa Herode aarokaga kũmũtwara agaciirithio, Petero aakomete gatagatĩ ga thigari igĩrĩ, ohetwo na mĩnyororo ĩĩrĩ, nacio thigari igĩrĩ ikarũgama kĩhingo-inĩ irangĩrĩte.
And when Herod woulde haue brought him out vnto the people, the same night slept Peter betweene two souldiers, bound with two chaines, and the keepers before the doore, kept the prison.
7 Na rĩrĩ, o rĩmwe mũraika wa Mwathani akĩmuumĩrĩra naguo ũtheri ũkĩara kanyũmba kau aarĩ. Mũraika ũcio akĩringaringa Petero mwena na akĩmũũkĩria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra narua!” Nayo mĩnyororo ĩrĩa oohetwo nayo moko ĩkĩgũa thĩ.
And behold the Angel of the Lord came vpon them, and a light shined in the house, and he smote Peter on the side, and raysed him vp, saying, Arise quickely. And his chaines fell off from his handes.
8 Mũraika ũcio agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩhumbe nguo ciaku na wĩkĩre iraatũ.” Nake Petero agĩĩka o ũguo. Mũraika ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩhotore nguo yaku na ũnũmĩrĩre.”
And the Angel saide vnto him, Girde thy selfe, and binde on thy sandales. And so he did. Then he said vnto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.
9 Petero akĩmũrũmĩrĩra, makiuma nja ya njeera, no ndaamenyaga atĩ ũndũ ũcio mũraika eekaga warĩ ũndũ wa ma; eeciiragia atĩ nĩ kĩoneki oonaga.
So Peter came out and followed him, and knewe not that it was true, which was done by the Angel, but thought he had seene a vision.
10 Makĩhĩtũka arangĩri a mbere na a keerĩ na magĩkinya kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa kĩgera kĩrĩa gĩa gũtoonya itũũra inene. Nakĩo kĩhingo kĩu gĩkĩĩhingũra nĩ ũndũ wao, nao makĩgerera ho. Rĩrĩa maathiire ũraihu wa gacĩra kamwe-rĩ, o rĩmwe mũraika ũcio akĩmũtiga.
Nowe when they were past the first and the second watch, they came vnto the yron gate, that leadeth vnto the citie, which opened to them by it owne accord, and they went out, and passed through one streete, and by and by the Angel departed from him.
11 Nake Petero akĩĩigua, na akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu nĩndamenya hatarĩ nganja atĩ Mwathani nĩegũtũmĩte mũraika wake aahonokie kuuma moko-inĩ ma Herode na kuuma kũrĩ maũndũ marĩa mothe andũ a Ayahudi matanyĩte kuona.”
And when Peter was come to himselfe, he said, Nowe I know for a trueth, that the Lord hath sent his Angel, and hath deliuered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the wayting for of the people of the Iewes.
12 Na rĩrĩa aguũkĩirwo nĩ ũhoro ũcio, agĩthiĩ kwa Mariamu ũrĩa warĩ nyina wa Johana, na nowe wetagwo Mariko, na nĩkuo andũ aingĩ monganĩte makĩhooya Ngai.
And as he considered the thing, he came to the house of Marie, the mother of Iohn, whose surname was Marke, where many were gathered together, and prayed.
13 Petero akĩringaringa mũrango wa nja, nake mũirĩtu warutaga wĩra kuo wetagwo Roda agĩũka kũhingũra.
And when Peter knocked at the entrie doore, a maide came foorth to hearken, named Rhode,
14 Rĩrĩa aaiguire mũgambo wa Petero, akĩiyũrwo nĩ gĩkeno kĩnene akĩaga kũhingũra mũrango akĩhũndũka atengʼerete, akĩanĩrĩra, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Petero arĩ mũrango-inĩ!”
But when she knew Peters voyce, she opened not the entrie doore for gladnesse, but ranne in, and tolde howe Peter stood before the entrie.
15 Nao makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩ kũgũrũka ũgũrũkĩte.” Rĩrĩa aakĩrĩrĩirie agwatĩirie kuuga atĩ ũguo nĩguo kwarĩ, makiuga atĩrĩ, “No nginya akorwo nĩ mũraika wake.”
But they said vnto her, Thou art mad. Yet she affirmed it constantly, that it was so. Then said they, It is his Angel.
16 Nowe Petero agĩthiĩ na mbere kũringaringa mũrango, na rĩrĩa maahingũrire makĩona nĩwe, makĩgega.
But Peter continued knocking, and when they had opened it, and sawe him, they were astonied.
17 Petero akĩmakiria na guoko na akĩmataarĩria ũrĩa Mwathani aamũrutĩte njeera. Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ĩrai Jakubu na ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ ũhoro ũcio,” agĩcooka agĩthiĩ kũndũ kũngĩ.
And he beckened vnto them with the hand, to hold their peace, and told them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he saide, Goe shewe these things vnto Iames and to the brethren: and he departed and went into an other place.
18 Rũciinĩ gwakĩa, nĩ kwagĩire na ngũĩ nene gatagatĩ-inĩ ga thigari nĩ kũrigwo nĩ ũrĩa gwekĩkĩte ũhoro ũkoniĩ Petero.
Nowe assoone as it was day, there was no small trouble among the souldiers, what was become of Peter.
19 Thuutha wa Herode gũcaria Petero na kũmwaga-rĩ, agĩciirithia thigari, na agĩathana atĩ ciũragwo. Herode agĩcooka akiuma Judea agĩthiĩ Kaisarea, agĩikara kuo kwa ihinda inini.
And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded them to be led to be punished. And he went downe from Iudea to Cesarea, and there abode.
20 Na rĩrĩ, nĩatũũrĩte ahaaranĩte na andũ a Turo na a Sidoni, no o magĩcookanĩrĩra hamwe magĩetha ũrĩa mangĩaranĩirie nake. Na maarĩkia kũnyiitwo mbaru nĩ Bulasito, ũrĩa warĩ ndungata njĩhokeku ya mũthamaki-rĩ, makĩhooya kũgĩe na thayũ, tondũ bũrũri wa mũthamaki ũcio nĩguo wamaheaga irio.
Then Herod was angrie with them of Tyrus and Sidon, but they came all with one accord vnto him, and perswaded Blastus the Kings Chamberlaine, and they desired peace, because their countrey was nourished by the Kings land.
21 Na mũthenya ũrĩa waraarĩirio wakinya-rĩ, Herode akĩĩhumba nguo ciake cia ũthamaki, na agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene, akĩarĩria andũ acio.
And vpon a day appointed, Herod arayed himselfe in royall apparell, and sate on the iudgement seate, and made an oration vnto them.
22 Nao makĩanĩrĩra makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũcio nĩ mũgambo wa ngai, ti mũgambo wa mũndũ.”
And the people gaue a shoute, saying, The voyce of God, and not of man.
23 O rĩmwe mũraika wa Mwathani akĩringa Herode nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga kũgoocithia Ngai, nake akĩrĩĩo nĩ igunyũ, agĩkua.
But immediatly the Angel of the Lord smote him, because he gaue not glorie vnto God, so that he was eaten of wormes, and gaue vp the ghost.
24 No kiugo kĩa Ngai gĩgĩkĩrĩrĩria kuongerereka na gũtheerema.
And the worde of God grewe, and multiplied.
25 Rĩrĩa Baranaba na Saũlũ maarĩkirie ũtungata wao-rĩ, magĩcooka kuuma Jerusalemu, na magĩcooka na Johana, na nowe wetagwo Mariko.
So Barnabas and Saul returned from Hierusalem, when they had fulfilled their office, and tooke with them Iohn, whose surname was Marke.
