Ọrụ Ndị Ozi 11
1 Ndị ozi na ụmụnna ndị bi na Judịa niile nụrụ na ndị mba ọzọ anabatala okwu Chineke.
But the apostles and brethren being throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also received the word of God.
2 Mgbe Pita ruru Jerusalem, ndị kwere ekwe e biri ugwu tara ya ụta,
And when Peter went tip to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision interviewed him, say
3 na-asị, “Gịnị mere ị ji gakwuru ndị a na-ebighị ugwu soro ha rie ihe?”
that, You went in unto men having uncircumcision, and ate with them.
4 Pita kọwaara ha ihe niile mere na otu o si mee, na-asị.
And Peter beginning expounded unto them consecutively, saying,
5 “Otu ụbọchị, mgbe m nọ nʼobodo Jopa, ahụrụ m ọhụ nʼoge m na-ekpe ekpere. Nʼime ọhụ a, ahụrụ m ihe yiri akwa ọcha dị obosara nke e sitere nʼakụkụ anọ ya na-ewedata site nʼeluigwe. E budatara ya nʼihu m.
I was praying in the city Joppa: and I saw a vision in an ecstasy, A certain vessel, like a great sheet, descending from the heaven, sitting down by four rope ends; and came even unto me:
6 Nʼime ya, ahụrụ m anụmanụ ndị nwere ụkwụ anọ, na anụ ọhịa, na anụ ndị na-akpụ akpụ nʼala na ụmụ nnụnụ nke eluigwe.
into which looking, I was investigating, and I saw quadrupeds of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and the birds of the heaven.
7 Mgbe ahụ, anụrụ m olu gwara m sị, ‘Pita, bilie, gbuo ma riekwa.’
And I also heard a voice saying to me, Arising, Peter; slay and eat.
8 “Ma asịrị m, ‘Mba, Onyenwe m, ọ dịbeghị mgbe ihe na-adịghị ọcha maọbụ ihe rụrụ arụ bara m nʼọnụ.’
And I said, By no means, Lord: because nothing unconsecrated or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.
9 “Olu ahụ siri nʼeluigwe zaghachi nke ugboro abụọ, ‘Akpọla ihe ọbụla ihe rụrụ arụ bụ nke Chineke mere ka ọ dị ọcha.’
And a voice a second time was heard from heaven, Whatsoever things God has cleansed, consider thou not unconsecrated.
10 Nke a mere ugboro atọ, ma emesịa dọlie ha niile laa nʼeluigwe.
And this took place three times: and all things were again taken up into the heaven.
11 “Nʼotu oge ahụ, ndị ikom atọ ndị e zipụrụ site Sizaria ịkpọ m bịarutere kwụsị nʼọnụ ụzọ nʼụlọ ebe m nọ.
And, behold, immediately three men were standing at the house in which we were, having been sent to me from Cornelius.
12 Mmụọ Nsọ gwara m ka m ghara inwe obi abụọ isoro ha na-akpaghị oke ọbụla. Mmadụ isii ndị a nʼetiti ụmụnna anyị sokwa m, bịarute nʼụlọ nwoke ahụ.
And the Spirit said to me, to go with them, doubting nothing. And these six brethren went along with me, and we entered into the house of the man.
13 Ọ gwara anyị otu o si hụ mmụọ ozi nʼụlọ ya, onye sịrị, ‘Ziga ndị ozi jee Jopa ka ha kpọta Saimọn onye a na-akpọ Pita.
And he proclaimed to us how he saw an angel standing in his house, and saying, Send to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is called Peter;
14 Ọ ga-ewetara gị ozi nke a ga-esite na ya zọpụta gị nʼezinaụlọ gị niile.’
who will speak words to you, by which you and your whole family may be saved.
15 “Mgbe m ka kpụ okwu ahụ nʼọnụ, Mmụọ Nsọ bịakwasịrị ha dịka o siri bịakwasị anyị na mbụ.
And when I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning.
16 Mgbe ahụ, echetara m okwu ahụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru sị, ‘Jọn ji mmiri mee unu baptizim, ma a ga-eji Mmụọ Nsọ mee unu baptizim.’
And I remembered the word of the Lord, as He said, John indeed baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
17 Ya mere, ọ bụrụ na Chineke nyere ha otu onyinye ahụ o nyere anyị mgbe anyị kweere nʼOnyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst, onye ka m bụ iguzogide Chineke?”
Since then God gave unto them the equal gift, as also unto us, believing on the Lord Jesus Christ; who was I, to be able to resist God?
18 Mgbe ha nụrụ nke a, ha agaghị nʼihu nʼịrụ ụka kama ha toro Chineke, na-asị, “Nʼezie, Chineke enyela ohere ka ọ bụladị ndị mba ọzọ chegharịa baa na ndụ.”
And hearing these things, they acquiesced, and glorified God, saying, Then God has also given unto the Gentiles repentance unto life.
19 Ugbu a, ndị ahụ niile gbasasịrị nʼihi mkpagbu ahụ bidoro mgbe a tụgburu Stivin na nkume, jeruru akụkụ Fonisia na Saiprọs na Antiọk na-ekwusa oziọma ahụ naanị nʼetiti ndị Juu.
Then indeed those having been dispersed abroad on account of the persecution prevailing over Stephen came through even to Phoenicia, and Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews only.
20 Ma otu ọ dị, ụfọdụ nʼime ndị ikom ndị ahụ sitere nʼakụkụ Saiprọs na Sirini gara Antiọk, malite ikwusara ndị Griik oziọma banyere Onyenwe anyị Jisọs.
And of them there were certain Cyprian and Cyrenean men, who, having come into Antioch, were speaking to the Greeks also, preaching the gospel of the Lord Jesus.
21 Onyenwe anyị gọziri mgbalị ha niile. Nʼihi na ọtụtụ mmadụ chegharịrị kwere nʼOnyenwe anyị.
And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number having believed, turned to the Lord.
22 Mgbe nzukọ dị na Jerusalem nụrụ ihe ndị a, ha zipụrụ Banabas ka ọ gaa Antiọk.
And the word was heard in the ears of the church in Jerusalem concerning them: and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
23 Mgbe o rutere, hụ ihe amara Chineke rụrụ nʼetiti ha. Ọ ṅụrịrị ọṅụ, mgbakwaa ha niile ume, gwa ha ka ha were obi ha niile nọgide nʼime Onyenwe anyị.
Who, coming, and seeing the grace of God, rejoiced, and continued to exhort all, with purpose of heart to abide with the Lord:
24 Ọ bụ ezigbo mmadụ, onye jupụtara na Mmụọ Nsọ na okwukwe. O nwekwara okwukwe dị ebube, nʼihi ya ọtụtụ mmadụ chegharịkwara bịakwute Onyenwe anyị.
because he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and faith. And a great multitude was added to the Lord.
25 Emesịa, ọ gara Antiọk obodo Tasọs ịchọ Sọl.
And he went away to Tarsus, to hunt up Saul: and having found him, led him to Antioch.
26 Mgbe ọ chọpụtara ya, o duuru ya bịa nʼAntiọk. Ihe ha ka otu afọ, ka ha na-ezukọ nʼụlọ chọọchị na-akụziri ọtụtụ igwe mmadụ ihe. Ọ bụ nʼime Antiọk ka e buru ụzọ kpọọ ndị na-eso ụzọ ya ndị Kraịst.
And it happened unto them, a whole year indeed they assembled in the church, and taught a great multitude: and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
27 Nʼoge ahụ, ndị amụma sitere na Jerusalem bịaruru Antiọk.
And during those days prophets came from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28 Otu onye nʼime ha a na-akpọ Agabọs biliri ọtọ buo amụma site nʼike Mmụọ Nsọ banyere oke ụnwụ ga-abịakwasị ụwa niile. Amụma a mezukwara nʼoge Klọdiọs na-achị.
And one of them by name Agabus, standing up, signified through the Spirit that there is about to be a great famine throughout the whole world: which took place under the reign of Claudius.
29 Ndị na-eso ụzọ ya kwekọrịtara ịtụkọta na iziga onyinye dị iche iche nye ndị kwere ekwe nọ na Judịa. Onye ọbụla nyekwara ihe dịka o nwere ike.
And they determined that each one of them should send to the ministry to the brethren dwelling in Judea, as each one of the disciples was prosperous;
30 Ha mere nke a, ha zigara ndị okenye ihe ha tụkọtara, site nʼaka Banabas na Sọl.
and this they did, sending to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
