3 Aru jitia Yehudi cholawta khan etu karone bisi khushi pa-a janise, tai Peter ke bhi dhori bole jaise. Aru etu homoi to khomir nadhala laga roti kha laga din khan thakise.
Wathi esebone ukuthi lokho kwakuwathabisa amaJuda, wabopha loPhethro njalo. Lokho kwenzakala ngezinsuku zoMkhosi weSinkwa esingelaMvubelo.
4 Jitia tai Peter ke dhori loise, taike bondhi ghor te hali dise, aru charta sipahi khan ke tai uporte sabole rakhidise; tai Peter ke Nistar Purbb dinte manu khan usorte ulaikene anibole bhabi thakise.
Esembophile wamphosela entolongweni, wamnikela ukuba alindwe ngamaviyo amane amabutho, ngalinye lilamabutho amane. UHerodi wayefuna ukuthi ngemva kwePhasika amkhuphele obala athonisiswe phambi kwabantu.
5 Etu homoi te, Peter ke bondhi ghor te rakhi thakise, kintu girja manu khan mon pora tai nimite hodai Isor logot prathana kori thakise.
Ngakho uPhethro wagcinwa entolongweni, kodwa ibandla lamkhulekela njalonjalo kuNkulunkulu.
6 Aru Peter ke Herod pora bisar nakora ek rati age te, Peter to duijon sipahi majote ghumai thakise, loha laga rusi duita pora bandi kene thakise, aru dorja usorte duijon sipahi taike rukhi thakise.
Ngobusuku obandulela ukuthonisiswa kukaPhethro nguHerodi, uPhethro wayelele ephahlwe ngamabutho amabili, ebotshwe ngamaketane amabili, kumi abalindi emnyango wentolongo.
7 Titia, achanak pora Probhu laga sorgodoth tai usorte ahise, aru bondhi ghor bhitor te ujala pora bhorta hoi jaise. Tai Peter laga kona te marise, aru taike uthaikene koise, “Joldi uthibi,” aru taike bandhi kene rakha luha rusi giri jaise.
Masinyane ingilosi yeNkosi yavela, kwabakhona ukukhanya kulelokamela lentolongo. Yathinta uPhethro ohlangothini, yamvusa yathi, “Phangisa, vuka!” Amaketane akhithika ezingalweni zikaPhethro.
8 Titia sorgodoth taike koise, “Kapra lagabi aru juta to lagai lobi.” Peter eneka korise. Sorgodoth taike koise, “Bahar laga ki kapra ase etu lagabi aru moi laga piche ahibi.”
Ingilosi yasisithi kuye, “Gqoka, ufake lamanyathela akho.” UPhethro wenzenjalo. Ingilosi yamtshela yathi, “Yembatha ijazi lakho ungilandele.”
9 Titia Peter sorgodoth laga pichete jaise. Kintu tai jana nai etu sob to hosa pora sorgodoth he kori ase. Tai darshan he dikhi ase bhabise.
UPhethro wayilandela ngaphandle kwentolongo, kodwa wayedidekile engakwazi ukuthi lokho ingilosi eyayikwenza kwakusenzakala ngempela; wayekhumbula ukuthi ubona umbono.

Titia taikhan ulaikene rasta nichete jaise, aru sorgodoth taike chari kene jai jaise.
Bedlula kubalindi, owokuqala lowesibili bafika esangweni lensimbi elaliphumela edolobheni. Lazivulekela baphuma. Kwathi sebehambe baphutsha umgwaqo wedolobho, ingilosi yamtshiya.
11 Aru jitia Peter etu sob hosa pora hoise koi kene jani loise, tai nijorke koise, “Etiya moi hosa pora jani loise Probhu moike Herod laga hath pora bachai lobole nimite Tai laga sorgodoth ke pathai dise, aru Yehudi manu khan ki bhabona kori thakise etu pora moike ulaikene anise.”
Kwayikhona uPhethro enanzelela, wathi, “Khathesi sengisazi kungelakuthandabuza ukuthi iNkosi ithume ingilosi yayo yangihlenga ezibotshweni zikaHerodi lakukho konke obekufiswa ngamaJuda.”
12 Jitia tai etu buji jaise, tai John, kunke Mark bhi mate tai laga ama Mary laga ghor te jaise, ta te bisi manu khan joma kori kene prathana kori thakise.
Sekumkhanyele kuhle lokhu, waqonda endlini kaMariya unina kaJohane, owayethiwa nguMakho njalo, khona lapho abantu abanengi babebuthene bekhuleka.
13 Aru jitia Peter dorjate marikena awaj dise, ekjon chukri noukar Rhoda koi kene dorja khuli bole ahise.

14 Jitia tai Peter laga awaj janise, khushi pora dorja khuli bole pahorise; aru tai, polaikene kamra te ahise; aru taikhan ke Peter dorjate khara kori kene ase koise.
Isilizwile ilizwi likaPhethro yathaba kakhulu, yagijimela phakathi ingasawuvulanga, yabika yathi, “UPhethro usemnyango!”
15 Titia taikhan pora koise, “Tumi pagli hoise.” Kintu tai Peter ahise koi kene jor pora koi dise. Titia taikhan koise, “Etu tai laga sorgodoth hobo.”
Bathi, “Uyahlanya wena.” Kwathi ngoba wala elokhu ephikelela ukuthi liqiniso, bathi, “Kutsho ukuthi yingilosi yakhe.”
16 Kintu Peter to dorjate mari thakise, aru jitia taikhan dorja khuli se, taikhan taike dikhi kene bisi asurit hoise.
Kodwa uPhethro wala elokhu eqoqoda, bathi bevula umnyango bambona, bamangala kakhulu.

UPhethro wabatshengisa ngesandla ukuthi bathule, wasebalandisela ukuthi iNkosi imkhuphe kanjani entolongweni. Wathi, “Libotshela uJakhobe labazalwane ngalokhu.” Wasesuka waya kwenye indawo.
18 Aru jitia din hoise, sipahi khan Peter logote ki hoise eku bhi jana nai.
Ekuseni kwaba lokunyakazela okukhulu phakathi kwabebutho. Babuza bathi, “Kambe ngabe uPhethro wenzenjani?”
19 Aru jitia Herod Peter ke bisari kene panai, tai sipahi khan ke hudise aru taikhan ke morai dibole hukum dise. Etu pichete tai Judea pora jai kene Caesarea te thakise.

Titia taikhan shanti thaki bole nimite mangise, kelemane taikhan laga desh te kha luwa kiman jai, sob etu raja laga desh pora he jai thakise.
Wayekade exabana labantu beThire labeSidoni; basebehlangana ndawonye bacela ukukhuluma laye. Sebezuze ukusekelwa nguBhlastu inceku ethembekileyo enkosini, bacela ukuthula ngoba ukudla kwabo babekuthola elizweni lenkosi.
21 Kotha kori kene rakha dinte, Herod raja laga kapra lagai kene tai nijorke taiyar korise. Tai laga singhason te bohi kene taikhan ke kotha korise.
Ngosuku olumisiweyo, uHerodi wagqoka izigqoko zobukhosi wahlala esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi, wasekhuluma ebantwini.

23 Titia etu homoi te Probhu laga sorgodoth joldi taike mari dise, kelemane tai Isor ke mohima diya nai; aru puka pora taike khai kene morai dise.
Masinyane nje, ngenxa yokuthi uHerodi wayengamkhonzi uNkulunkulu, ingilosi yeNkosi yamtshaya yamlahla phansi, wadliwa zimpethu wafa.
24 Aru Isor laga kotha bisi-bisi hoi jaise.
