1 Na i taua wa ka totoro atu nga ringa o Kingi Herora ki te tukino i etahi o te hahi.
In that tyme Herode the kynge stretched forthe his handes to vexe certayne of the congregacion.
2 A whakamatea ana e ia ki te hoari a Hemi, te tuakana o Hoani.
And he kylled Iames the brother of Iohn with the swerde:
3 A, no tona kitenga e pai ana ki nga Hurai, ka anga ia ki te hopu hoki i a Pita. Na ko nga ra ena o te taro rewenakore.
and because he sawe that it pleased ye Iewes he proceded forther and toke Peter also. Then were the dayes of swete breed.
4 A, no ka mau ia, ka maka ki te whare herehere, ka tukua ki nga hoia kotahi tekau ma ono kia tiakina; ko te whakaaro mo muri iho i te kapenga ka whakaputa mai ai i a ia ki te iwi.
And when he had caught him he put him in preson and delyvered him to. iiii. quaternios of soudiers to be kepte entendynge after ester to brynge him forth to the people.
5 Na ka puritia a Pita ki roto ki te whare herehere: otiia kihai i mutumutu te inoi a te hahi ki te Atua mona.
Then was Peter kepte in preson. But prayer was made with out ceasynge of the congregacion vnto God for him.
6 A, no ka tata a Herora te whakaputa mai i a ia, i taua po ano e moe ana a Pita i waenganui o nga hoia tokorua, he mea here ki nga mekameka e rua: me nga kaitiaki i mua i te tatau e tiaki ana i te whare herehere.
And when Herode wolde have brought him oute vnto the people the same nyght slepte Peter bitwene two soudiers bounde with two chaynes and the kepers before the dore kepte the preson.
7 Na, tu ana tetahi anahera na te Ariki i tona taha, a tiaho ana te marama i roto i te ruma: na ka papaki ia i te kaokao o Pita, ka whakaara i a ia, ka mea, E ara, hohoro. A marere iho ona mekameka i ona ringa.
And beholde the angell of ye Lorde was there present and a lyght shyned in the lodge. And smote Peter on the syde and steryd him vp sayinge: aryse vp quyckly. And his cheynes fell of fro his hondes.
8 Ka mea atu ano te anahera ki a ia, Whitiki i a koe, ka here i ou parekereke. A meinga ana e ia. Ka mea ano ki a ia, Kakahuria tou kakahu, haere mai i muri i ahau.
And the angell sayd vnto him: gyrde thy selfe and bynde on thy sandales. And so he dyd. And he sayde vnto him: cast thy mantle aboute the and folowe me.
9 Na ka haere ia ki waho, ka aru i a ia; a kihai ia i mahara he pono ta te anahera i mea ai; hua noa he rekanga kanohi tana i kite ai.
And he came oute and folowed him and wist not that it was truthe which was done by the angell but thought he had sene a vision.
10 A, no ka mahue i a raua te tuatahi, te tuarua o nga kaitiaki, ka tae raua ki te tatau rino i te putanga atu ki te pa; tuwhera noa ana tera ki a raua: puta ana raua ki waho, haere ana, puta rawa i tetahi ara, mawehe tonu atu te anahera i a ia.
When they were past ye fyrst and ye seconde watche they came vnto yt yron gate yt ledeth vnto the cyte which opened to them by his awne accorde. And they went out and passed thorowe one strete and by and by the angell departed fro him.
11 A, i te hokinga ake o nga whakaaro o Pita, ka mea ia, Katahi ahau ka tino mohio, kua tono mai te Ariki i tana anahera, hei tango i ahau i roto i te ringa o Herora, i nga mea katoa hoki e taria nei e te iwi o nga Hurai.
And when Peter was come to him selfe he sayde: now I knowe of a surety that the Lorde hath sent his angell and hath delyvered me out of the honde of Herode and from all the waytynge for of the people of ye Iewes.
12 A, no ka whakaaroaro ia ki taua mea, ka haere ia ki te whare o Meri whaea o Hoani, ko te rua nei o ona ingoa ko Maka; he tokomaha hoki kua huihui ki reira ki te inoi.
And as he consydred the thinge he cam to ye housse of Mary the mother of one Iohn which was called Marke also where many were gaddered to gedder in prayer.
13 A, no te patototanga a Pita i te tatau o te whatitoka, ka tae mai he kotiro ki te whakarongo, ko Rora te ingoa.
As Peter knocked at the entry dore a damsell cam forth to herken named Rhoda.
14 A, no ka mohio ia ki te reo o Pita, kihai i uakina te tatau i te hari, heoi oma ana ki roto, ki te korero kei te tatau a Pita e tu ana.
And when she knew Peters voyce she opened not the entrey for gladnes but ran in and told how Peter stode before the entrey.
15 Na ka mea ratou ki a ia, E haurangi ana koe. Heoi ka tohe tonu ia he pono. Na ka mea ratou, Ko tona anahera.
And they sayde vnto her: thou arte mad. And she bare them doune yt it was even so. Then sayde they: it is his angell.
16 Me te patuki tonu ano tera a Pita: a, i ta ratou uakanga, ka kite i a ia, ka miharo.
Peter cotynued knockinge. When they had opened the dore and sawe him they were astonyed.
17 Na ka pepehi atu tona ringa i a ratou kia kaua e kuihi, ka korerotia ki a ratou tona whakaputanga mai e te Ariki i te whare herehere. Ka mea, Korerotia enei mea ki a Hemi ratou ko nga teina. Na ka puta ia ki waho, haere ana he wahi ke.
And he beckened vnto them with ye honde to holde their peace and tolde them by what meanes ye Lorde had brought him oute of the preson. And sayde: goo shew these thinges vnto Iames and to the brethren. And he departed and went into a nother place.
18 Na i te aonga ake ano o te ra, kihai i iti te pororaru o nga hoia, i ahatia ranei a Pita.
Assone as it was daye ther was no lyttell a doo amoge the soudyers what was becum of Peter.
19 Na ka rapu a Herora i a ia, a, no te korenga i kitea, ka whakawa i nga kaitiaki, ka whakahau kia whakamatea. Na haere atu ana ia i Huria ki raro ki Hiharia noho ai.
When Herode had called for him and founde him not he examined the kepers and comaunded to departe. And he descended from Iewry to Cesarea and ther abode.
20 Na tino nui te riri o Herora ki te hunga o Taira, o Hairona: otira ka huihui mai ratou ki a ia, a, ka oti a Parahitu, te kaitiaki o te whare moenga o te kingi, te whakakiki e ratou, ka tono ratou kia houhia te rongo, no te mea ko nga kai i whang aia ai to ratou whenua no te whenua o te kingi.
Herode was displeased with them of Tyre and Sydon. And they came all at once and made intercession vnto Blastus the kynges chamberlen and desyred peace because their countrey was norysshed by the kynges londe.
21 A i tetahi ra i whakaritea ka kakahu a Herora i te kakahu kingi, ka noho ki runga ki te torona, a whakatu ana ki a ratou.
And upon a daye appoynted Herode arayed him in royall apparell and set him in his seate and made an oraycon vnto them.
22 Na ko te karangatanga a te huihui, He reo atua, ehara i to te tangata.
And the people gave a shoute sayinge: it is ye voyce of a God and not of a man.
23 I reira pu ano ka patua ia e tetahi anahera a te Ariki, no te mea kihai i hoatu e ia te kororia ki te Atua: a kainga ana ia e te kutukutu, hemo ake.
And immediatly the angell of ye Lorde smote him because he gave not God the honoure and he was eatyn of wormes and gave vp the goost.
24 Ko te kupu ia a te Atua i tupu, i nui haere.
And ye worde of God grewe and multiplied.
25 A ka hoki a Panapa raua ko Haora i Hiruharama, i te otinga o ta raua mahi, ka mauria a Hoani, ko te rua nei o ona ingoa ko Maka.
