< Atũmwo 3 >
1 Mũthenya ũmwe Petero na Johana nĩmambatire magĩthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ihinda rĩa mahooya, na kwarĩ thaa kenda cia mũthenya.
Peter and John were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.
2 Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ waciarĩtwo arĩ mwonju nĩakuuagwo agatwarwo kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa hekarũ kĩrĩa gĩetagwo Gĩthaka, akaigwo ho o mũthenya nĩguo ahooe mbeeca kũrĩ andũ arĩa maatoonyaga hekarũ.
A certain man who was lame from his mother’s womb was being carried, whom they laid daily at the door of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask gifts for the needy of those who entered into the temple.
3 Na rĩrĩa onire Petero na Johana marĩ hakuhĩ gũtoonya-rĩ, akĩmahooya mbeeca.
Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive gifts for the needy.
4 Nao Petero na Johana makĩmũkũũrĩra maitho. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Petero akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta tũrore!”
Peter, fastening his eyes on him, with John, said, “Look at us.”
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ ũcio akĩmarora, erĩgĩrĩire atĩ nĩmekũmũhe kĩndũ.
He listened to them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Petero agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Betha na thahabu ndirĩ nacio, no kĩrĩa ndĩ nakĩo nĩkĩo ngũkũhe. Thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ Kristũ wa Nazarethi, ũkĩra wĩtware.”
But Peter said, “I have no silver or gold, but what I have, that I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!”
7 Akĩmũnyiita guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo, akĩmũrũgamia na igũrũ, na o hĩndĩ ĩyo magũrũ na thũngʼwa cia mũndũ ũcio ikĩgĩa na hinya.
He took him by the right hand and raised him up. Immediately his feet and his ankle bones received strength.
8 Nake akĩrũga na igũrũ, akĩambĩrĩria gwĩtwara. Agĩcooka agĩthiĩ nao hekarũ-inĩ, etwarĩte na magũrũ, akĩrũgarũgaga na akĩgoocaga Ngai.
Leaping up, he stood and began to walk. He entered with them into the temple, walking, leaping, and praising God.
9 Rĩrĩa andũ othe monire agĩĩtwara na magũrũ akĩgoocaga Ngai,
All the people saw him walking and praising God.
10 makĩmenya atĩ nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa watũũraga aikarĩte kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa hekarũ kĩrĩa gĩetagwo Gĩthaka akĩhooya mbeeca. Nao makĩgega mamakĩte nĩkuona ũrĩa kwahanĩkĩte harĩ mũndũ ũcio.
They recognized him, that it was he who used to sit begging for gifts for the needy at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. They were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
11 Mũndũ ũcio watũũrĩte ahooyaga mbeeca-rĩ, o enyiitĩrĩire Petero na Johana, andũ othe makĩgega na magĩũka matengʼerete nginya hau maarĩ, naho heetagwo Gĩthaku gĩa Solomoni.
As the lame man who was healed held on to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.
12 Rĩrĩa Petero onire ũguo, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya a Isiraeli, ũndũ ũyũ ũramũgegia nĩkĩ? Mũratũrora atĩa taarĩ hinya witũ kana ũthingu witũ watũma mũndũ ũyũ etware na magũrũ?
When Peter saw it, he responded to the people, “You men of Israel, why do you marvel at this man? Why do you fasten your eyes on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made him walk?
13 Ngai wa Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka na Jakubu, o we Ngai wa maithe maitũ, nĩagoocithĩtie ndungata yake Jesũ. Inyuĩ nĩmwamũneanire ooragwo, na mũkĩmũkaana mbere ya Pilato, o na gũtuĩka nĩatuĩte itua rĩa kũmũrekereria.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.
14 Mwakaanire Ũrĩa Mũtheru na Mũthingu mũkiuga muohorerwo mũũragani.
But you denied the Holy and Righteous One and asked for a murderer to be granted to you,
15 Mworagire ũrĩa mũheani wa muoyo, no Ngai nĩamũriũkirie kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ. Ithuĩ tũrĩ aira a ũhoro ũcio.
and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, to which we are witnesses.
16 Nĩ ũndũ wa wĩtĩkio thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ, mũndũ ũyũ mũrona na mũũĩ, nĩagĩĩte na hinya. Nĩ rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ na wĩtĩkio ũrĩa uumanaga nake watũma mũndũ ũyũ ahone o ta ũrĩa inyuothe mũreyonera.
By faith in his name, his name has made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which is through him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
17 “Na rĩrĩ, ariũ a Ithe witũ, nĩnjũũĩ atĩ mwekire ũguo nĩ ũndũ wa kũrigwo, o ta ũrĩa atongoria anyu o nao meekire.
“Now, brothers, I know that you did this in ignorance, as did also your rulers.
18 No rĩrĩ, ũguo nĩguo Ngai aahingirie ũrĩa aarĩtie o mbere na tũnua twa anabii othe, akiuga atĩ Kristũ wake nĩakanyariirĩka.
But the things which God announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he thus fulfilled.
19 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mwĩrirei na mũgarũrũke kũrĩ Ngai, nĩgeetha mehia manyu meherio, nĩguo mũgĩe na mahinda ma kũrurumũkio moimĩte kũrĩ Mwathani, na
“Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord,
20 nĩguo atũme Kristũ, o we ũrĩa wamũrĩtwo nĩ ũndũ wanyu, nake nĩwe Jesũ.
and that he may send Christ Jesus, who was ordained for you before,
21 We no nginya aikare igũrũ o nginya ihinda rĩkinye rĩa Ngai rĩa gũcookereria maũndũ mothe, o ta ũrĩa eranĩire o tene na tũnua twa anabii aake atheru. (aiōn )
whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God spoke from the age (aiōn ) by the mouth of his holy prophets.
22 Nĩgũkorwo Musa oigire atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathani Ngai wanyu nĩakamwarahũrĩra mũnabii o ta niĩ kuuma kũrĩ andũ anyu. Na no nginya mũgaathikĩrĩria ũrĩa wothe akaamwĩra.
For Moses indeed said to the fathers, ‘The Lord God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him in all things whatever he says to you.
23 Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũtakamũthikĩrĩria, nĩakeherio biũ kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao.’
It will be that every soul that will not listen to that prophet will be utterly destroyed from among the people.’
24 “Ti-itherũ, anabii othe kuuma hĩndĩ ya Samũeli, arĩa manaaria, nĩ maaririe ũhoro wa matukũ maya.
Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who followed after, as many as have spoken, also told of these days.
25 Na inyuĩ mũrĩ ariũ a anabii, na a kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Ngai aarĩkanĩire na maithe manyu. Eerire Iburahĩmu atĩrĩ, ‘Na nĩ ũndũ wa rũciaro rwaku, andũ othe a thĩ nĩmakarathimwo.’
You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘All the families of the earth will be blessed through your offspring.’
26 Rĩrĩa Ngai aariũkirie ndungata yake, aambire kũmĩtũma kũrĩ inyuĩ nĩgeetha amũrathime na ũndũ wa kũgarũra o ũmwe wanyu kuuma kũrĩ mĩtũũrĩre yanyu ya waganu.”
God, having raised up his servant Jesus, sent him to you first to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your wickedness.”
