Misala ya Bantoma 5
1 Nzokande, ezalaki na moto moko na kombo Ananiasi. Atekaki eteni ya mabele na ye na boyokani na Safira, mwasi na ye.
But a certain man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a field,
2 Abombaki ndambo ya mbongo mpo na ye moko, boye amemaki ndambo oyo etikalaki mpe apesaki yango na bantoma. Mwasi na ye mpe ayebaki yango.
and he was deceitful about the price of the field, with his wife’s consent. And bringing only part of it, he placed it at the feet of the Apostles.
3 Boye, Petelo atunaki ye: — Ananiasi, ndenge nini Satana atondisi motema na yo mpo ete okosa Molimo Mosantu, mpe obomba ndambo ya mbongo oyo otekeli elanga na yo?
But Peter said: “Ananias, why has Satan tempted your heart, so that you would lie to the Holy Spirit and be deceitful about the price of the land?
4 Boni, liboso ete oteka yango, ezalaki ya yo te? Mpe sima na koteka yango, okokaki te kosala na mbongo yango likambo nyonso oyo motema na yo elingi? Mpo na nini ozwaki likanisi ya kosala likambo ya boye? Okosi bato te, kasi okosi nde Nzambe!
Did it not belong to you while you retained it? And having sold it, was it not in your power? Why have you set this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God!”
5 Tango Ananiasi ayokaki bongo, akweyaki mpe akufaki. Bongo, bato nyonso oyo bayokaki likambo yango batondaki na somo.
Then Ananias, upon hearing these words, fell down and expired. And a great fear overwhelmed all who heard of it.
6 Boye, bilenge mibali bayaki, bazipaki nzoto na ye mpe bamemaki yango libanda mpo na kokunda yango.
And the young men rose up and removed him; and carrying him out, they buried him.
7 Sima na ngonga pene misato, mwasi ya Ananiasi akotaki, kasi ayebaki te likambo oyo ewutaki kosalema.
Then about the space of three hours passed, and his wife entered, not knowing what had happened.
8 Petelo atunaki ye: — Yebisa ngai, ezali na talo wana nde yo mpe Ananiasi botekaki elanga wana? Safira azongisaki: — Ezali bongo, etekamaki Kaka na talo wana.
And Peter said to her, “Tell me, woman, if you sold the field for this amount?” And she said, “Yes, for that amount.”
9 Petelo alobaki na ye: — Mpo na nini boyokanaki mpo na komeka Molimo ya Nkolo? Yoka, makolo ya bato oyo bawuti kokunda mobali na yo esili kokoma liboso ya ekuke; yo mpe, bakomema yo.
And Peter said to her: “Why have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they shall carry you out!”
10 Kaka na tango yango, akweyaki liboso ya Petelo mpe akufaki. Boye tango bilenge mibali bakotaki, bakutaki ye ya kokufa. Bamemaki ye mpe bakendeki kokunda ye pembeni ya mobali na ye.
Immediately, she fell down before his feet and expired. Then the young men entered and found her dead. And they carried her out and buried her next to her husband.
11 Somo monene etondisaki Lingomba mobimba mpe bato nyonso oyo bayokaki sango yango.
And a great fear came over the entire Church and over all who heard these things.
12 Bantoma bazalaki kosala bilembo mingi ya kokamwa mpe misala minene kati na bato. Boye, bandimi nyonso bazalaki na momesano ya kosangana na veranda ya Salomo.
And through the hands of the Apostles many signs and wonders were accomplished among the people. And they all met with one accord at Solomon’s portico.
13 Moko te kati na bato oyo bazalaki na lisanga na bango te azalaki komeka kosangana na bango, ata bato bazalaki kopesa bango lokumu mingi.
And among the others, no one dared to join himself to them. But the people magnified them.
14 Nzokande, mibali mpe basi ebele penza bazalaki kondimela Nkolo mpe kobakisama na lisanga na bango.
Now the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord was ever increasing,
15 Bongo, bazalaki komema babeli na babalabala, kolalisa bango na bambeto mpe na bitoko mpo ete tango Petelo akoleka, elilingi na ye ekoka kozipa bamoko kati na bango.
so much so that they laid the infirm in the streets, placing them on beds and stretchers, so that, as Peter arrived, at least his shadow might fall upon any one of them, and they would be freed from their infirmities.
16 Mpe lisusu, bato ebele oyo bazalaki kowuta na bingumba ya zingazinga bazalaki kosangana na Yelusalemi; bazalaki komema babeli na bango mpe bato oyo bazalaki kotungisama na milimo ya mbindo; mpe bango nyonso bazalaki kobikisama.
But a multitude also hurried to Jerusalem from the neighboring cities, carrying the sick and those troubled by unclean spirits, who were all healed.
17 Bongo mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kosala na ye elongo, oyo bazalaki bato ya lisanga ya Basaduseo, batondaki na zuwa.
Then the high priest and all those who were with him, that is, the heretical sect of the Sadducees, rose up and were filled with jealousy.
18 Bakangaki bantoma mpe babwakaki bango na boloko ya monene.
And they laid hands on the Apostles, and they placed them in the common prison.
19 Kasi na butu, anjelu moko ya Nkolo afungolaki bikuke ya boloko, abimisaki bantoma mpe alobaki na bango:
But in the night, an Angel of the Lord opened the doors of the prison and led them out, saying,
20 — Bokende kotelema kati na Tempelo mpe kuna, boyebisa bato maloba nyonso ya bomoi oyo ya sika.
“Go and stand in the temple, speaking to the people all these words of life.”
21 Bantoma batosaki. Boye, na tongo-tongo, bakotaki na Tempelo mpe bakomaki koteya bato. Tango mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bato oyo basalaka na ye elongo bakomaki, babengisaki Likita-Monene—lisanga mobimba ya bakambi ya bana ya Isalaele—mpe bapesaki mitindo ete bakende kozwa bantoma na boloko.
And when they had heard this, they entered the temple at first light, and they were teaching. Then the high priest, and those who were with him, approached, and they called together the council and all the elders of the sons of Israel. And they sent to the prison to have them brought.
22 Kasi tango bakengeli bakomaki na boloko, bakutaki bango te. Bazongaki mpe balobaki:
But when the attendants had arrived, and, upon opening the prison, had not found them, they returned and reported to them,
23 — Tokuti boloko ya kokangama malamu mpe bakengeli liboso ya bikuke; kasi tango tofungoli yango, tomoni ata moto moko te na kati.
saying: “We found the prison certainly locked up with all diligence, and the guards standing before the door. But upon opening it, we found no one within.”
24 Tango mokonzi ya bakengeli ya Tempelo mpe bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe bayokaki sango yango, bakomaki mitema likolo mpe bakomaki kotunana soki likambo yango ekosuka ndenge nini.
Then, when the magistrate of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were uncertain about them, as to what should happen.
25 Bongo moto moko ayaki koyebisa bango: — Boyoka! Bato oyo bobwakaki na boloko, batelemi kuna na Tempelo mpe bazali koteya bato.
But someone arrived and reported to them, “Behold, the men whom you placed in prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people.”
26 Mbala moko, mokonzi ya bakengeli akendeki elongo na basoda na ye mpo na kozwa bantoma. Kasi amemaki bango na makasi te, pamba te bazalaki kobanga ete bato babamba bango mabanga.
Then the magistrate, with the attendants, went and brought them without force. For they were afraid of the people, lest they be stoned.
27 Wana bamemaki bango, batiaki bango liboso ya Likita-Monene, mpe mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe abandaki kotuna bango mituna.
And when they had brought them, they stood them before the council. And the high priest questioned them,
28 Alobaki: — Topekisaki bino ete bomeka lisusu te koteya na Kombo wana. Kasi tala sik’oyo ndenge botondisi Yelusalemi na mateya na bino mpe bolingi komemisa biso ngambo ya makila ya moto wana.
and said: “We strongly order you not to teach in this name. For behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you wish to bring the blood of this man upon us.”
29 Kasi Petelo mpe bantoma mosusu bazongisaki: — Esengeli kotosa Nzambe, kasi bato te!
But Peter and the Apostles responded by saying: “It is necessary to obey God, more so than men.
30 Nzambe ya bakoko na biso asekwisaki Yesu kati na bakufi, Yesu oyo bino bobomaki mpe bobakaki na nzete.
The God of our fathers has raised up Jesus, whom you put to death by hanging him on a tree.
31 Ezali Ye nde Nzambe atomboli na nzela ya loboko na Ye ya mobali lokola Mokonzi mpe Mobikisi, mpo ete bana ya Isalaele bakoka kozwa nzela ya kobongola mitema mpe kozwa bolimbisi ya masumu na bango.
It is he whom God has exalted at his right hand as Ruler and Savior, so as to offer repentance and the remission of sins to Israel.
32 Biso, tozali batatoli ya makambo oyo; ndenge moko mpe Molimo Mosantu oyo Nzambe apesaki na bato oyo batosaka Ye azali motatoli ya makambo yango.
And we are witnesses of these things, with the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to all who are obedient to him.”
33 Tango bayokaki bongo, batombokaki makasi mpe bazwaki mokano ya kobomisa bantoma.
When they had heard these things, they were deeply wounded, and they were planning to put them to death.
34 Kasi Mofarizeo Gamalieli, molakisi ya Mobeko mpe moto ya lokumu mingi na miso ya bato nyonso, atelemaki kati na Likita-Monene mpe atindaki ete babimisa bantoma mpo na mwa tango moke.
But someone in the council, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law honored by all the people, rose up and ordered the men to be put outside briefly.
35 Alobaki na bango: — Bato ya Isalaele, bosala keba mpo na makambo oyo bolingi kosala bato oyo.
And he said to them: “Men of Israel, you should be careful in your intentions about these men.
36 Eleki mikolo mingi te, moto moko na kombo Teodasi awutaki kobima. Azalaki komimona moto monene, mpe bato pene nkama minei bazalaki kolanda ye. Kasi tango babomaki ye, bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kolanda ye bapalanganaki mpe lisanga na ye ekufaki.
For before these days, Theudas stepped forward, asserting himself to be someone, and a number of men, about four hundred, joined with him. But he was killed, and all who believed in him were scattered, and they were reduced to nothing.
37 Sima na ye, tango tozalaki kotanga motango ya bato kati na mokili, moto moko mpe lisusu na kombo Yuda, moto ya Galile, abimaki mpe amemaki bato ebele na botomboki. Ye mpe lisusu babomaki ye, bongo bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kolanda ye bapalanganaki.
After this one, Judas the Galilean stepped forward, in the days of the enrollment, and he turned the people toward himself. But he also perished, and all of them, as many as had joined with him, were dispersed.
38 Yango wana, na likambo oyo, boyoka toli na ngai: Bokota lisusu makambo ya bato oyo te mpe botika bango bakende! Pamba te soki makanisi to mosala na bango ewuti na moto, solo, ekosuka kaka na nzela.
And now therefore, I say to you, withdraw from these men and leave them alone. For if this counsel or work is of men, it will be broken.
39 Kasi soki yango ewuti na Nzambe, solo, bokolonga te kosukisa bato oyo. Bosala keba ete bobundisa Nzambe te. Bato ya Likita-Monene bandimaki likanisi ya Gamalieli,
Yet truly, if it is of God, you will not be able to break it, and perhaps you might be found to have fought against God.” And they agreed with him.
40 babengisaki bantoma, babetisaki bango bafimbu mpe bapekisaki bango ete bateya lisusu Kombo ya Yesu te. Sima na yango batikaki bango kokende.
And calling in the Apostles, having beaten them, they warned them not to speak at all in the name of Jesus. And they dismissed them.
41 Bantoma balongwaki liboso ya Likita-Monene, na esengo mingi ya komona ete bakoki mpo na komona pasi na tina na Kombo na Yesu.
And indeed, they went forth from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were considered worthy to suffer insult on behalf of the name of Jesus.
42 Mokolo na mokolo bazalaki kotika te koteya, mpe kosakola Sango Malamu na Tempelo to na ndako moko na moko ete Yesu azali Klisto.
And every day, in the temple and among the houses, they did not cease to teach and to evangelize Christ Jesus.
