1 Awo Peetero ne Yokaana baali bakyayogera eri abantu, bakabona, n’omukulu w’abakuumi ba Yeekaalu n’Abasaddukaayo ne bajja gye bali,
When are speaking now they to the people came upon them the (priests *NK(O)*) and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees,
2 nga basunguwadde nnyo okuwulira nga Peetero ne Yokaana bayigiriza abantu, ku bwa Yesu, okuzuukira mu bafu.
being distressed because of teaching of theirs to the people and [their] proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection (that *NK(o)*) out from [the] dead;
3 Ne bakwata Peetero ne Yokaana, naye olwokubanga obudde bwali buyise ne babaggalira mu kkomera okutuusa enkeera.
and they laid on them the hands and put [them] in custody until the next day; it was for evening already.
4 Kyokka abantu bangi ku abo abaali bawuliriza abatume ne bakkiriza, era omuwendo gw’abasajja bokka abakkiriza ne guba ng’enkumi ttaano!
Many however of those having heard the word believed; and became the number of the men (about *N(k)O*) thousand five.
5 Enkeera, abafuzi n’abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya, n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka ne bakuŋŋaanira mu Yerusaalemi.
It came to pass then on the next day assembling their rulers and (*no*) elders and (*no*) scribes
6 Baali ne Ana Kabona Asinga Obukulu, ne Kayaafa, ne Yokaana, ne Alegezanda n’abalala bangi abaalina oluganda ne Kabona Asinga Obukulu.
(in *N(k)O*) Jerusalem and (Annas the high priest *N(k)O*) and (Caiaphas *N(k)O*) and (John *N(k)O*) and (Alexander *N(k)O*) and as many as were of descent high-priestly,
7 Awo abatume bombi ne baleetebwa ne basimbibwa mu maaso g’Olukiiko. Ne bababuuza nti, “Buyinza ki oba linnya ly’ani kwe musinzidde okukola kino?”
And having placed them in the midst they were inquiring; In what power or in what name did this you yourselves?
8 Awo Peetero bwe yajjuzibwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu n’agamba nti, “Abafuzi, n’abakulembeze b’abantu,
Then Peter having been filled with [the] Spirit Holy said to them; Rulers of the people and elders (of Israel *K*)
9 obanga tubuuzibwa nsonga ey’omusajja eyawonyezeddwa,
if we ourselves this day are being examined as to a good work [to the] man ailing, by what [means] he has been healed,
10 mutegeere mmwe mwenna n’abantu bonna mu Isirayiri, omusajja ono ayimiridde mu maaso gammwe mu linnya lya Yesu Kristo Omunnazaaleesi, gwe mwakomerera naye Katonda n’amuzuukiza, era kaakano mulamu.
known it should be to all you and to all the people of Israel that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth whom you yourselves crucified, whom God raised out from [the] dead, in Him this [man] has stood before you sound.
11 “‘Oyo ly’Ejjinja abazimbi lye baagaana, lye lifuuse ejjinja ekkulu ery’oku nsonda.’
This is the stone which having been rejected by you the (builders, *N(k)O*) which has become into head of [the] corner.’
12 Tewali mu mulala yenna bulokozi, era tewali linnya ddala na limu mu mannya gonna agaaweebwa abantu, wansi w’eggulu, mwetugwanira okulokolebwa.”
And not there is in other no [one] the salvation; (not *N(k)O*) for name is there another under heaven which given among men by which it behooves to be saved us.
13 Awo ab’Olukiiko bwe baalaba obuvumu bwa Peetero ne Yokaana, ate n’okutegeera ne bategeera nga tebaasoma, era nga si batendeke, ne beewuunya nnyo, ne bategeera ng’abasajja abo baabeeranga ne Yesu.
Seeing now the of Peter boldness and of John and having grasped that men unschooled they are and ordinary, they were astonished, They were recognizing then them that with Jesus they were being,
14 Era bwe baalaba omusajja eyawonyezebwa ng’ayimiridde nabo, n’eky’okubaddamu ne kibabula.
(And *N(k)O*) the man beholding with them already standing who healed, no [thing] they had to contradict.
15 Ne babalagira okugira nga babeera wabweru Olukiiko lubakubaganyeko ebirowoozo.
Having commanded however them outside the Council to go, (they were confering *N(k)O*) with one another
16 Ab’olukiiko ne beebuuzaganya nti, “Abasajja bano tubakole tutya? Kubanga tetuyinza kwegaana ekyamagero eky’amaanyi ekikoleddwa mu bo; buli muntu yenna mu Yerusaalemi akitegedde.
saying; What (shall we do *N(k)O*) to the men these? for truly for a noteworthy sign has come to pass through them to all those inhabiting Jerusalem [is] evident, and not we are able (to deny [it]; *N(k)O*)
17 Naye engeri gye tunaaziyizaamu ebigambo byabwe okwongera okusaasaana kwe kubalabula n’amaanyi baleme kuddayo kwogera na muntu yenna ku linnya lya Yesu.”
But that not on further it may spread among the people, (threats *K*) (let us warn *NK(o)*) them no longer to speak in name this to no man.
18 Ne babayita bakomewo mu Lukiiko, ne babalagira baleme kuddayo nate kwogera ku linnya lya Yesu.
And having called them they commanded (them *k*) at not to speak nor to teach in the name of Jesus.
19 Naye Peetero ne Yokaana ne baddamu nti, “Mmwe muba musalawo obanga kituufu mu maaso ga Katonda okuwulira mmwe okusinga okuwulira Katonda.
But Peter and John answering said to them; Whether right it is before God to you to listen rather than God, you should judge.
20 Tetuyinza butayogera ku bintu bye twalaba, n’ebigambo bye twawulira.”
not we are able for we ourselves what we have seen and we heard not to speak.
21 Awo Olukiiko bwe lwamala okwongera okubatiisatiisa ne lubaleka ne bagenda, kubanga baabulwa kwe banaasinziira okubabonereza ne batasasamaza bantu. Kubanga abantu bonna baali bagulumiza Katonda olw’ekyo ekyabaawo.
And having further threatened [them] they let go them nothing finding the how (they may punish *NK(o)*) them, on account of the people, because all were glorifying God for that having happened.
22 Omusajja eyawonyezebwa yali assussa mu myaka amakumi ana.
of years for he was more than forty-the man on whom had taken place sign this of healing.
23 Awo Peetero ne Yokaana bwe baateebwa ne baddayo eri bannaabwe ne bababuulira byonna bakabona abakulu n’abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya bye baabagamba.
Having been let go now they came to [their] own and reported as much as to them the chief priests and the elders had said.
24 Bonna bwe baabiwulira ne bayimusiza wamu amaloboozi gaabwe n’omwoyo gumu eri Katonda ne basaba nti, “Ayi Mukama, Omutonzi w’eggulu n’ensi n’ennyanja ne byonna ebibirimu,
And having heard with one accord they lifted up [their] voice to God and said; Sovereign Lord, You yourself (God *K*) who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that [is] in them,
25 ggwe Kitaffe wayogerera ku bwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu mu kamwa k’omuweereza wo, Dawudi bwe yagamba nti: “‘Lwaki Abaamawanga banyiigidde, n’abantu ne balowooza ebitaliimu?
who (of the father of us *NO*) through ([the] Spirit Holy *NO*) through [the] mouth of David (the *k*) servant of You having spoken: so why so why did rage [the] Gentiles and peoples did devise vain things?
26 Bakabaka b’ensi n’abakulembeze, beegatta okulwanyisa Mukama n’okulwanyisa Kristo we.’
Took [their] stand the kings of the earth and the rulers were gathered together themselves against the Lord and against the Christ of Him.’
27 Kubanga baakuŋŋaanira mu kibuga. Kerode ne Pontiyo Piraato, awamu n’Abamawanga, n’Abayisirayiri, beegatta okulwanyisa Omuweereza wo Omutukuvu Yesu gwe wafukako amafuta,
Were gathered together for in truth (in the city this *NO*) against the holy servant of You Jesus whom You anointed, Herod both and Pontius Pilate with [the] Gentiles and peoples of Israel
28 ne bakola ebyo omukono gwo n’okuteesa kwo bye kwateekateeka edda okubaawo.
to do as much as the hand of You and the purpose of You determined beforehand to happen.
29 Ne kaakano, Ayi Mukama, wulira okutiisatiisa kwabwe; owe abaddu bo obuvumu babuulire ekigambo kyo,
And now, Lord, do look upon the threats of them and do grant to the servants of You with boldness all to speak the word of You
30 golola omukono gwo owonye, n’obubonero n’ebyamagero bikolebwenga mu linnya ly’Omuweereza wo Omutukuvu Yesu.”
in that the hand of You stretching out You for healing and signs and wonders to take place through the name of the holy servant of You Jesus.
31 Awo bwe baamala okusaba, ekifo mwe baali bakuŋŋaanidde ne kinyeenyezebwa, bonna ne bajjuzibwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu ne babuulira ekigambo kya Katonda n’obuvumu.
And when were praying they was shaken the place in which they were assembled, and they were filled all (with the *no*) Holy Spirit and were speaking the word of God with boldness.
32 Abakkiriza bonna baalina omwoyo gumu n’omutima gumu; nga tewali agamba nti kino kye nnina kyange ku bwange, wazira nga bonna bagabanira wamu.
And the multitude who having believed were [in] (*k*) heart and (*k*) soul one; and not one anything of the possessions (to him *N(k)O*) was claiming [his] own to be, but were to them (all things *NK(o)*) in common.
33 Awo abatume ne babuulira nnyo n’amaanyi mangi ku kuzuukira kwa Mukama waffe Yesu, era bonna ne bajjula ekisa kingi.
And [with] power great were giving testimony the apostles of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus grace then abundant was upon all them.
34 Mu bo temwali baali mu kwetaaga, kubanga abo abaalina ettaka oba amayumba, baabitundanga, ensimbi ezivudde mu bye batunze
Not even for in need anyone (there was *N(k)O*) among them; as many as for [were] owners of lands or houses were selling [them] they were bringing the proceeds of what is sold
