Atũmwo 4
1 Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na mũnene wa arangĩri a hekarũ, o na Asadukai magĩthiĩ harĩ Petero na Johana rĩrĩa maaragĩria andũ.
And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,
2 Nĩmaiguĩte ũũru mũno tondũ atũmwo nĩmarutaga andũ na makahunjia ũhoro wa kũriũka kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ thĩinĩ wa Jesũ.
Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 Makĩnyiita Petero na Johana, na tondũ kwarĩ hwaĩ-inĩ, makĩmaikia njeera nginya mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ warũmĩrĩire.
And they laid hands on them, and put [them] in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.
4 No rĩrĩ, andũ aingĩ arĩa maiguire ndũmĩrĩri ĩyo nĩmetĩkirie, naguo mũigana wa arũme ũkĩongerereka magĩkinya ta 5,000.
Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.
5 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ, aathani ao na athuuri, na arutani a watho makĩgomana kũu Jerusalemu.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,
6 Nake Anasi, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, aarĩ ho, marĩ na Kaiafa, na Johana, na Alekisandero, na andũ arĩa angĩ maarĩ a nyũmba ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene.
And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.
7 Magĩathana atĩ Petero na Johana mareehwo mbere yao, na makĩambĩrĩria kũmooria ciũria. Makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũrahotire gwĩka ũndũ ũcio na hinya ũrĩkũ, kana na rĩĩtwa rĩrĩkũ?”
And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?
8 Nake Petero, aiyũrĩtwo nĩ Roho Mũtheru, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ aathani na athuuri a andũ!
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
9 Angĩkorwo twĩtĩtwo ũmũthĩ nĩgeetha tũtaarĩrie ũhoro wa gĩĩko kĩega kĩrĩa gĩĩkĩirwo mũndũ ũcio ũratũũrĩte arĩ mwonju, na tũũrio ũrĩa arahonirio-rĩ,
If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;
10 kĩmenyei inyuĩ, o na andũ othe a Isiraeli atĩrĩ: Mũndũ ũyũ arũngiĩ mbere yanyu arĩ mũhonu nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ Kristũ wa Nazarethi, ũrĩa mwambithirie, nake Ngai akĩmũriũkia kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ.
Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, [even] by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11 We nĩwe “‘ihiga rĩrĩa inyuĩ aaki mwaregire, na nĩrĩo rĩtuĩkĩte ihiga rĩrĩa inene rĩa koine.’
This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12 Naguo ũhonokio ndũngĩoneka harĩ mũndũ ũngĩ o wothe, nĩ ũndũ gũtirĩ rĩĩtwa rĩngĩ gũkũ thĩ rĩheanĩtwo kũrĩ andũ rĩngĩtũhonokia.”
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
13 Rĩrĩa monire ũũmĩrĩru wa Petero na Johana, na makĩmenya atĩ matiarĩ athomu, na atĩ maarĩ andũ o ũguo-rĩ, makĩgega na makĩmenya atĩ andũ acio maakoreetwo marĩ na Jesũ.
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
14 No rĩrĩ, mona mũndũ ũcio wahonetio arũgamĩte hamwe nao-rĩ, matingĩahotire kuuga ũndũ.
And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmaatha mehere Kĩama-inĩ, nao athuuri magĩciira marĩ oiki.
But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 Makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya tũkũmeeka atĩa? Andũ othe arĩa matũũraga Jerusalemu nĩmooĩ atĩ nĩmaringĩte kĩama kĩnene na tũtingĩhota gũkaana ũhoro wakĩo.
Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them [is] manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we can not deny [it].
17 No nĩguo tũgirie ũndũ ũyũ gũthiĩ na mbere makĩria gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ-rĩ, no nginya tũkaanie andũ aya kwarĩria mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ na rĩĩtwa rĩu.”
But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
18 Magĩcooka makĩmeeta thĩinĩ rĩngĩ na makĩmaatha atĩ matikaarie kana marutane o na atĩa na rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ.
And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 No Petero na Johana makĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Tuai ciira inyuĩ ene kana nĩ kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Ngai tũmwathĩkĩre inyuĩ gũkĩra gwathĩkĩra Ngai.
But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.
20 Nĩgũkorwo tũtingĩhota gũtiga kwaria ũrĩa tuonete na tũkaigua.”
For we can not but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
21 Na thuutha wa kũmakaania, maamehĩire mũno, makĩmarekereria mathiĩ. Matingĩahotire gũtua ũrĩa mangĩamaherithirie, tondũ andũ othe nĩmagoocaga Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa gwekĩkĩte.
So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all [men] glorified God for that which was done.
22 Nĩgũkorwo mũndũ ũcio wahonetio na njĩra ya kĩama aarĩ na ũkũrũ wa makĩria ma mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna.
For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed.
23 Na rĩrĩa Petero na Johana maarekereirio, magĩthiĩ kũrĩ andũ a thiritũ yao, na makĩmeera ũrĩa wothe athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na athuuri maameerĩte.
And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.
24 Rĩrĩa maiguire ũhoro ũcio, makĩanĩrĩra marĩ ngoro ĩmwe makĩhooya Ngai, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathani Jehova, nĩwe wombire igũrũ na thĩ na iria, o na indo ciothe iria irĩ kuo.
And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou [art] God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
25 Nawe nĩwaririe na ũndũ wa Roho Mũtheru na kanua ka ndungata yaku, o we ithe witũ Daudi, ũkiuga atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga ndũrĩrĩ irakare mũno, na andũ mathugunde mĩbango ya tũhũ?
Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
26 Athamaki a thĩ nĩmatuĩte itua, na aathani magacookania ndundu, nĩguo mokĩrĩre Mwathani, na mokĩrĩre Ũrĩa wake Mũitĩrĩrie Maguta.’
The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27 Ti-itherũ, Herode na Pontio Pilato nĩmoonganire hamwe na andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ, na andũ a Isiraeli, itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ inene nĩguo mathugunde ũrĩa megũũkĩrĩra Jesũ ndungata yaku theru, o ĩrĩa wee waitĩrĩirie maguta.
For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,
28 O mekire ũrĩa hinya waku na wendi waku watuĩte o mbere atĩ nĩguo gũgaatuĩka.
For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
29 Na rĩrĩ, Mwathani, kĩone ũrĩa matwĩhĩire, na ũkĩhotithie ndungata ciaku kwaria kiugo gĩaku irĩ na ũũmĩrĩru mũingĩ.
And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
30 Tambũrũkia guoko gwaku ũhonanie, na ũringe ciama na morirũ na ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ, ndungata yaku theru.”
By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
31 Nao maarĩkia kũhooya, handũ hau moonganĩte hagĩthingitha. Nao othe makĩiyũrwo nĩ Roho Mũtheru, makĩaria kiugo kĩa Ngai marĩ na ũcamba.
And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
32 Nao andũ arĩa othe meetĩkĩtie maarĩ na ngoro ĩmwe na meciiria o mamwe. Gũtiarĩ mũndũ woigaga atĩ kĩndũ o na kĩrĩkũ kĩa indo ciake nĩ gĩake we mwene, no maahũthagĩra indo ciothe iria maarĩ nacio hamwe.
And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any [of them] that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
33 Nao atũmwo, marĩ na hinya mũingĩ, magĩthiĩ na mbere kũheana ũira wa kũriũka kwa Mwathani Jesũ, na wega mũingĩ wa Ngai warĩ igũrũ rĩao.
And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
34 Gũtiarĩ andũ maagaga kĩndũ gatagatĩ-inĩ kao. Nĩgũkorwo ihinda kwa ihinda andũ arĩa maarĩ na ithaka kana nyũmba nĩmaciendagia, makarehe mbeeca icio mendetie,
Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
35 magaciiga magũrũ-inĩ ma atũmwo, nacio ikagaĩrwo mũndũ o mũndũ kũringana na bata wake.
And laid [them] down at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
36 Jusufu, Mũlawii wa kuuma Kuporo, ũrĩa atũmwo meetaga Baranaba (ũguo nĩ kuuga Mũrũ wa Ũũmanĩrĩria),
And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation, ) a Levite, [and] of the country of Cyprus,
37 nĩendirie gĩthaka gĩake na akĩrehe mbeeca icio, agĩciiga magũrũ-inĩ ma atũmwo.
Having land, sold [it], and brought the money, and laid [it] at the apostles’ feet.
