Matendo ga Mitume 12
1 Wakati huo mpwalume Herode kanyosha luboko lwake kwa baadhi ya balo baboka mu'likusanyiko ili kubatesa.
And at that time Herod the king, who was surnamed Agrippa, laid hands on some of the church, to maltreat them.
2 Kamulaga Yakobo nongo wake Yohana kwa upanga.
And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
3 Baada ya kubona kuwa yawapendeza Ayahudi, kamkamwa na Petro kae. Ayee ibile muda wa mikate ibile kwaa na chachu.
And when he saw that this pleased the Jews, he proceeded also to arrest Simon Cephas. And the days of unleavened bread were then passing.
4 Paamkamwile, kambeka muligereza na kubeka vikosi ncheche vya askari ili kumlinda, abile akitarajia kumpeleka kwa bandu baada ya Pasaka.
He seized him and cast him into prison, and delivered him to sixteen soldiers, who were to guard him; that he might, after the passover, deliver him up to the people of the Jews.
5 Petro abekwa mu'ligereza, lakini maombi kapangwa kwa bidii na kusanyiko kwa ajili yake kwa Nnongo.
And while Simon was in custody in the prison, continual prayer to God in his behalf, was offered to God by the church.
6 Lisoba kabla Herode kuyenda kumtoa, Kilo yee Petro abile agonjike katikati ya maaskari abele, abile atabilwe na nyororo yanaibele, na balinzi nnongi ya nnango babile bakililinda ligereza.
And on the night before the morning in which he was to be delivered up, while Simon was sleeping between two soldiers, and was bound with two chains, and others were guarding the doors of the prison;
7 Linga, malaika wa Ngwana gafla atimtokya na bweya uting'ara mu'ligereza. Kankombwa Petro mu ubau na kumwamsha kabaya, “Amka haraka,” Nga nyororo yabile atabilwe nayo itomboka boka mu'maboko gake.
an angel of the Lord stood over him, and a light shone in all the building; and he pricked his side, and awaked him, and said to him: Arise, instantly. And the chains fell from his hands.
8 Malaika kambakiya, “Uwale ngobo zako na uwale ilatu yako.” Petro kapanga nyoo. Malaika kambakiya, “Uwale ngobo yako ni unikengame.”
And the angel said to him: Gird thy loins, and put on thy sandals. And he did so. And again he said to him: Wrap thyself in thy cloak, and come after me.
9 Petro kankengama Malaika na katoka panja. Aaminiya kwaaa chakipangilwe na malaika mana ni cha kweli. Atangite panga abona maono.
And he went out and followed him, not knowing that what had been done by the angel was a reality; for he supposed, that he saw a vision.
10 Baada ya pitya mu'lindo lya kwanza na lya ibele, baikite pa'nnango nkolo wa chuma wa jingya mjini, lyatifunguka lyene kwa ajili yabe. Babokite panja na kuuluka mu'mitaa, mara Malaika annekite.
And when the first ward was passed and the second, they came to the iron gate, and it opened to them of its own accord. And when they had gone out, and had passed one street, the angel departed from him.
11 Petro paajitangite, kabaya, “Nambeambe naaminiya kuwa Ngwana amtumile Malaika bake ili kuntoa katika maboko ga Herode, na kwa matarajio ga bandu bote na Uyahudi,”
Then Simon recognized where he was; and he said: Now I know, in reality, that God hath sent his angel, and delivered me from the hand of Herod the king, and from what the Jews were devising against me.
12 Baada ya kugatanga aga, kaisa mu'nyumba ya Mariamu mao bake Yohana ambaye ni Marko, Bakristo banyansima batikwembana nakunloba Nnongo.
And when he had considered, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John surnamed Mark; because many brethren were assembled there and praying.
13 Paatibisha pa'nnango wa kizuizi, mtumishi yumo nwawa ywakemelwa Roda atiisa na kufungua.
And he knocked at the gate of the court; and a maid named Rhoda came to reply to him.
14 Paatangite kuwa ni lilobe lya Petro, kwa puraha kashindwa kufungua nnango; badala yake atibutuka mu'chumba; kubajulisha kuwa Petro ayemi nnongi ya Nnango.
And she recognized the voice of Simon: and, In her joy, she did not open to him the gate, but ran back, and told them: Lo, Simon is standing at the gate of the court.
15 Nga nyo, kababaya kwake, “Wenga wa mwendawazimu” lakini atikazia kuwa kweli ni ywembe. Babaya “Ayoo ni malaika bake.”
They said to her: Thou art delirious. But she maintained that it was a fact. They said to her: Perhaps it is his ghost.
16 Lakini Petro kayendelea kombwa odi, kabamfungua nnango, bamweni na kushangala muno. Petro kaanyamazisha kwa maboko kimya kimya na kuwabakiya namna Ngwana atimtoa boka mu'ligereza. kabaya,
And Simon was knocking at the gate; and they went out, saw him, and were astonished.
17 “Mubajulishe makowe aga Yakobo na alongo bake.”Boka po atiboka no yenda sehemu yenge.
And he beckoned to them with the hand to be still; and he went in, and related to them how the Lord had released him from the prison. And he said to them: Tell these things to James and to the brethren. And he went out, and departed to another place.
18 Paiikite mutwekati, pabile na huzuni ngolo kati ya askari, husiana na chakipangite kwa Petro.
And when it was morning, there was a great dispute among the soldiers concerning Simon, what had become of him.
19 baada ya Herode kumpala na amweni kwaa kaanaluya balinzi na atiamuru baabulage. Kayenda na kuboka Uyahudi mpaka Kaisaria na tama kolyo.
And Herod, when he sought him, and could not find him, arraigned the keepers, and sentenced them to die. And he went from Judaea, and resided at Caesarea.
20 Herode abile na hasira nnani ya bandu ba Tiro na Sidoni. Bayenda pamope kwake. Babile na urafiki na Blasto msaidizi ba Mpwalume, ili abasaidie. Boka po batiloba amani, kwa mana nchi yabe ipokile chakulya boka mu'nchi ya mpwalume.
And because he was angry against the Tyrians and Sidonians, they assembled and came to him in a body; and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they begged of him that they might have peace; because the supplies of their country were derived from the kingdom of Herod.
21 Lisoba lyalikusudiwa Herode abile kawala ngobo ya kipwalume na tama mu'iteo chake cha kipwalume, na kabahutubia.
And on a day appointed, Herod was arrayed in royal apparel, and sat on a tribunal, and made a speech to the assembly.
22 Bandu bakombwa ndoti, “Ayee nga lilobe lya nnongo wala lya mundu kwaa!”
And all the people shouted, and said: These are the utterances of a God, and not of a mortal.
23 Mara ghafla Malaika ankombwile, kwa mana ampeya kwaa Nnongo utukufu; kaminya ndumbo na awile.
And, because he gave not the glory to God, immediately the angel of God smote him; and he was eaten of worms, and died.
24 Lakini neno lya Nnongo likakua na lyatisambaa.
And the gospel of God was proclaimed, and made progress.

And Barnabas and Saul, after they had completed their ministration, returned from Jerusalem to Antioch. And they took with them John, who was surnamed Mark.
