Ọrụ Ndị Ozi 5
1 Ma otu nwoke a na-akpọ Ananayas na nwunye ya bụ Safaịra rekwara ala nke ha.
But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
2 Na nkwekọrịta ya na nwunye ya, o zoro ụfọdụ ego site nʼego ha retara nʼala ha ahụ, weta nke fọdụrụ bịa tọgbọ nʼụkwụ ndị ozi.
And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
3 Pita sịrị, “Ananayas, gịnị mere ekwensu jiri jupụta obi gị mee ka ị ghaara mmụọ nsọ ụgha mgbe i zopuuru onwe gị ego site nʼime ego i retara nʼala gị?
But Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
4 Ọ bụghị gị nwe ala ahụ tupu e ree ya? Mgbe e rechara ya, ego e retara ya ọ bụghị nke gị, iji mee ka ị chọrọ? Gịnị mere i ji chee echiche ime ihe dị otu a? Ọ bụghị mmadụ ka ị ghaara ụgha kama ọ bụ Chineke.”
Whiles it remained, was it not your own? and after it was sold, was it not in your own power? why have you conceived this thing in your heart? you have not lied to men, but to God.
5 Mgbe Ananayas nụrụ okwu ndị a, ọ dara nʼala nwụọ, egwu jidekwara ndị niile nụrụ ihe mere.
And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
6 Ụmụ okorobịa ndị nọ ebe ahụ batara jiri akwa kee ozu ya bupụ ya ga lie.
And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him.
7 Mgbe ihe dịka awa atọ gasịrị, nwunye ya batakwara, ma ọ matabeghị ihe mere di ya.
And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.
8 Pita jụrụ ya, gwa m, “ọ bụ ego ole a ka gị na di gị retara ala ahụ?” Ọ sịrị, “E, ọ bụ ego ole ahụ ka anyị retara ya.”
And Peter answered to her, Tell me whether you sold the land for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much.
9 Pita sịrị ya, “Gịnị mere unu jiri kpebie ịnwa Mmụọ nke Onyenwe anyị ọnwụnwa? Gee ntị, nzọ ụkwụ ndị buuru di gị gaa lie nọ nʼọnụ ụzọ. Ha ga-ebupụkwa gị.”
Then Peter said to her, How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried your husband are at the door, and shall carry you out.
10 Nʼotu oge ahụ ọ dara nʼala nʼụkwụ ya, nwụọ, ụmụ okorobịa ahụ liri di ya batakwara chọpụta na ọ nwụọla, buru ya pụọ gaa lie ya nʼakụkụ di ya.
Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband.
11 Oke egwu tụrụ nzukọ ahụ niile, tụọkwa ndị niile nụrụ akụkọ banyere ihe ndị a.
And great fear came on all the church, and on as many as heard these things.
12 Ndị ozi ahụ rụkwara ọrụ ebube na ọrụ ịrịbama dị ukwuu nʼetiti ndị mmadụ. Ha niile na-ezukọ na mgbe ụlọ Solomọn.
And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders worked among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.
13 O nweghị onye ọbụla kwere iso ha ọzọ, nʼagbanyeghị na ọtụtụ mmadụ na-asọpụrụ ha.
And of the rest dared no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.
14 Ma otu ọ dị, ọtụtụ ndị nwoke na ndị nwanyị kwere nʼOnyenwe anyị sonyere ha.
And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)
15 Nʼihi nke a, ndị mmadụ bupụtara ndị ọrịa nʼokporoụzọ nibe ha nʼute na ihe ndina, ka ọ ga-abụ mgbe Pita na-agafe onyinyo ya ga-adakwasị ụfọdụ nʼime ha.
So that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
16 Igwe mmadụ zukọtara site nʼobodo ndị dị Jerusalem gburugburu. Ha butekwara ndị nrịa nrịa, na ndị mmụọ na-adịghị ọcha na-enye nsogbu, a gwọkwara ha niile.
There came also a multitude out of the cities round about to Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.
17 Mgbe ahụ onyeisi nchụaja na ndị otu ya so nʼotu ndị Sadusii ka ekworo jupụtara obi.
Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees, ) and were filled with indignation,
18 Ha jidere ndị ozi a tụba ha nʼụlọ mkpọrọ nke ọha mmadụ.
And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.
19 Ma nʼoge abalị mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị meghere ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ kpọpụta ha sị,
But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,
20 “Gaanụ, guzoronụ nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ gwa ndị mmadụ ozi niile nke ndụ ọhụrụ a.”
Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
21 Mgbe ha nụrụ nke a, nʼisi ụtụtụ, ha banyere nʼụlọnsọ ukwu malite izi ihe. Ma mgbe onyeisi nchụaja na ndị soo ya bịarutere, ha kpọrọ nzukọ ndị Sanhedrin nke bụ ọgbakọ jikọtara ndị okenye Izrel niile. Ha zipụrụ ozi ka e site nʼụlọ mkpọrọ kpụta ha.
And when they heard that, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
22 Ma mgbe ndị ahụ ha zipụrụ ruru nʼụlọ mkpọrọ, ha ahụghị ndị ozi ahụ. Ha lọghachiri azụ kọọrọ ndị ọgbakọ ahụ ihe ha hụrụ,
But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned and told,
23 “Anyị hụrụ ka a kpọchiziri ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ nke ọma, ndị nche guzokwa nʼọnụ ụzọ ya. Ma mgbe anyị meghere ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ, anyị ahụghị onye ọbụla nʼime ya.”
Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.
24 Mgbe onyeisi ndị agha na-eche ụlọnsọ ukwu na ndịisi nchụaja nụrụ okwu ndị a, ọ gbara ha gharịị, ha na-eche ihe nke a ga-apụta.
Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them to what this would grow.
25 Nʼotu oge ahụ, otu onye gbabatara gwa ha, “Leenụ! Ndị ahụ unu tụbara nʼụlọ mkpọrọ guzo ugbu a nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu na-ezi ndị mmadụ ihe.”
Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.
26 Ngwangwa, onyeisi agha na ndị agha ya gara nʼụlọnsọ ahụ jide ndị ozi ahụ ma kpụta ha, ma ha ejighị ike mee nke a nʼihi na ha tụrụ egwu na ndị mmadụ ga-atụ ha nkume.
Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.
27 Mgbe a kpụtara ha, e mere ka ha guzoro nʼihu ọgbakọ ndị Sanhedrin, onyeisi nchụaja jụrụ ha ajụjụ,
And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them,
28 sị, “Ọ bụ anyị adọghị unu aka na ntị ka unu kwụsị ikuzi ihe nʼaha a; ma unu emeela ka ozizi unu jupụta Jerusalem niile kpebiekwa ime ka ọbara nwoke a dịrị anyị nʼisi.”
Saying, Did not we straightly command you that you should not teach in this name? and, behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man’s blood on us.
29 Pita na ndị ozi ndị ọzọ zara sị, “Anyị ga-erubere Chineke isi ọ bụghị mmadụ.
Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
30 Chineke nna nna anyị a kpọlitela Jisọs site nʼọnwụ bụ onye ahụ unu gburu site nʼịkpọgide ya nʼelu osisi.
The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you slew and hanged on a tree.
31 Chineke ebuliela ya elu nʼaka nri nke ya onwe ya dị ka Ọkpara eze na Onye nzọpụta, ka o nwee ike inye ndị Izrel niile nchegharị na mgbaghara mmehie.
Him has God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
32 Anyị bụ ndị ama nke ihe ndị a, Mmụọ Nsọ onye Chineke nyere ndị na-erubere ya isi bụkwa onyeama.”
And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God has given to them that obey him.
33 Mgbe ha nụrụ nke a, ọ gbawara ha obi, ha chọọ igbu ha.
When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them.
34 Ma otu onye nʼime ha bụ onye Farisii, bụrụkwa onye ozizi iwu a na-asọpụrụ, aha ya bụ Gamaliel, biliri ọtọ nʼetiti ọgbakọ ahụ, nye iwu ka a kpọpụ ndị ozi ahụ nʼezi nwa oge nta.
Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;
35 Ọ sịrị ha, “Ndị Izrel, leziekwanụ anya nke ọma ihe unu na-achọ ime ndị a.
And said to them, You men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do as touching these men.
36 Nʼoge gara aga Teodas pụtara na-egosi na ya bụ onye pụrụ iche, ihe dịka narị mmadụ anọ sokwara ya, mgbe e gburu ya, ndị niile sooro ya gbasasịrị ihe niile a kwụsịkwa.
For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nothing.
37 Mgbe nke ya gasịrị, Judas onye Galili pụtakwara gosi onwe ya nʼoge a na-agụ ọnụọgụgụ mmadụ, o nwetakwara ndị sooro ya. Mgbe e gbukwara ya, ndị niile na-eso ya gbasasịrị.
After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
38 Ya mere, agwa m unu, hapụnụ ndị a ka ha laara onwe ha. Nʼihi na ọ bụrụ na ọrụ ha bụ ọrụ mmadụ, ọ ga-akwụsị mgbe na-adịghị anya.
And now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nothing:
39 Ma ọ bụrụ na o sitere nʼaka Chineke, unu agaghị enwe ike ịkwụsị ndị ikom ndị a, unu ga-achọpụta naanị na unu na-alụso Chineke ọgụ.”
But if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it; lest haply you be found even to fight against God.
40 Ọgbakọ ahụ nabatara ndụmọdụ ya. Ha kpọrọ ndị ozi ahụ pịa ha ihe, nyekwa ha iwu ka ha kwụsị ikwu okwu nʼaha Jisọs, hapụkwa ha ka ha laa.
And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
41 Mgbe ha hapụrụ ọgbakọ ahụ, ha na-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼihi na-agụnyere ha na ndị kwesiri ịnara mkparị nʼihi aha ya.
And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
42 Ụbọchị niile, nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu ma nʼụlọ ndị mmadụ ha na-akụzi ma na-ekwusa oziọma na Jisọs bụ Kraịst ahụ.
And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
