Ditiro 4
1 Mme ya re ba santse ba bua le batho, baperesiti ba bagolo le molaodi wa mapodisi a Tempele, le bangwe ba Basadukai ba tla kwa go bone,
As they spoke to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came to them,
2 ba tshwenyegile thata ka ntlha ya gore Petere le Johane ba ne ba bolela gore Jesu o tsogile mo baswing.
being upset because they taught the people and proclaimed in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 Ba ba tshwara, mme ka go ne go setse go le maitsiboa, ba ba tlhatlhela mo tlung ya kgolegelo bosigo jotlhe.
They laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was now evening.
4 Mme bontsi jwa batho ba ba utlwileng molaetsa wa bone ba o dumela, mo e leng gore palo ya badumedi e ne ya tsholetsega ya batla go nna dikete tse tlhano!
But many of those who heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.
5 Erile ka letsatsi le le latelang ga diragala gore Lekgotla la baeteledipele ba Sejuta le bo le phuthegetse mo Jerusalema.
It happened in the morning, that their rulers, elders, and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem.
6 Anase Moperesiti yo mogolo a bo a le teng, le Kaiafase, Johane, Alekesandere le ba bangwe ba losika lwa Moperesiti yo Mogolo.
Annas the high priest was there, with Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and as many as were relatives of the high priest.
7 Jalo barutwa ba babedi ba leriwe kwa go bone. Mme lekgotla la ba botsa la re, “Lo dirile selo se ka nonofo ya ga mang kgotsa ka taolo ya ga mang?”
When they had stood them in the middle of them, they inquired, "By what power, or in what name, have you done this?"
8 Mme Petere, ka a tletse Mowa O O Boitshepo a ba raya a re, “Baeteledipele ba ba tlotlegang le ditlhogo tsa sechaba sa rona,
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, "Rulers of the people, and elders,
9 fa lo raya tiro e ntle e e diretsweng segole se, le ka fa o neng a fodisiwa ka teng,
if we are examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed,
10 a nke ke lo bolelele sentle lona le batho botlhe ba Iseraele gore tiro e e dirilwe ka leina le nonofo ya ga Jesu wa Nasaretha, Mesia, monna yo lo mmapotseng, mme Modimo o mo tsositse mo baswing. Ke ka nonofo ya gagwe fa monna yo a eme fano a fodile!
be it known to you all, and to all the children of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazorean, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, in him does this man stand here before you whole.
11 Gonne Jesu Mesia (ene yo go buiwang ka ga gagwe mo dikwalong) ke ‘lentswe je le gannweng ke baagi le le neng la nna lentswe la kgokgotshwana.’
This one is the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.
12 Ga go na poloko mo go ope! Ka fa tlase ga legodimo lotlhe ga gona leina lepe le batho ba ka le bitsang gore ba bolokwe.”
And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among people by which we must be saved."
13 Erile Lekgotla le bona bopelokgale jwa ga Petere le Johane, gape le lemoga gore ga ba a rutega ke batho fela, ba hakgamala mme ba lemoga gore go nna le Jesu go ba diretse eng.
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they were amazed. They recognized that they had been with Jesus.
14 Mme Lekgotla le ne le se kake la latola go fodisiwa ga gagwe gonne motho yo o neng a fodisitswe o ne a eme gone foo gaufi nabo!
Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 Mme ba ba ntshetsa kwa ntle ga ntlwana e Lekgotla le kopanelang mo go yone ba sala ba gakololana.
But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 Ba botsana ba re, “Re tlaa dirang ka banna ba? Ga re ka ke ra ganela gore ba dirile kgakgamatso e kgolo, gonne mongwe le mongwe mo Jerusalema o itse ka ga selo se.
saying, "What should we do with these men? Because indeed a notable miracle has been done through them, as can be plainly seen by all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.
17 Mme gongwe re ka ba emisa mo go anamiseng tumelo ya bone. Re tlaa ba bolelela gore fa ba ka dira gape jalo re tlaa dira gore ba obamele molao wa rona ka kgang.”
But so this does not spread any further among the people, let us severely threaten them, that from now on they do not speak to anyone in this name."
18 Mme ba ba biletsa mo teng, ba ba raya ba re ba seka ba tlhola ba bua sepe ka ga Jesu.
They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 Mme Petere le Johane ba ba raya ba re, “Atlholang lona gore a Modimo o batla re reetsa lona mo boemong jwa one!
But Peter and John answered them, "Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, judge for yourselves,
20 Ga re ka ke ra khutlisa go bua ka dilo tse di ntle tse re bonyeng Jesu a di dira ebile re mo utlwile a di bua.”
for we cannot help telling the things which we saw and heard."
21 Mme Lekgotla la ba bopela, lwa bofelo ba ba lesa ba tsamaya gonne ba ne ba sa itse gore ba ka ba otlhaya jang kwa ntle ga go tsosa mokubukubu. Gonne mongwe le mongwe o ne a galaletsa Modimo ka ntlha ya tiro e ntle e,
When they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people; for everyone glorified God for that which was done.
22 ebong phodiso ya monna yo o saleng a lwetse dingwaga di le masome mane!
For the man on whom this miracle of healing was performed was more than forty years old.
23 Ka bofefo fela fa ba sena go gololwa, Petere le Johane ba bona barutwa ba bangwe mme ba ba bolelela se Lekgotla le se ba reileng.
Being let go, they came to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.
24 Mme badumedi botlhe ba kopanela thapelo e: “Oo Morena yo o dirileng legodimo le lefatshe le lewatle le tsotlhe tse di mo go tsone,
When they heard it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, "Lord, you made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them.
25 o buile bogologolo ka Mowa O O Boitshepo ka mogolwagolwane wa rona, motlhanka wa gago Kgosi Dafide, wa re ‘Ke ka ntlha yang fa baheitane ba tsogologela Morena, le merafe e e dieleele e dira maanonyana a a kgatlhanong le Modimo-Mothata-Yotlhe? Dikgosi tsa lefatshe di a kopana go tlhabantsha Morwa Modimo yo o tloditsweng!’
You said through the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David your servant: 'Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers take council together, against the Lord, and against his Christ.'
27 “Ke sone se se diragalang fano mo motseng o gompieno! Gonne Kgosi Herode, le Ponto Pilato mmusi, le ba-Roma botlhe le batho ba Iseraele, ba kopanetse Jesu, Morwa yo o tloditsweng, motlhanka wa gago yo o boitshepo.
"For truly, in this city against your holy servant, Jesus, whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the non-Jews and the people of Israel, were gathered together
28 Ga ba na go tlogela le fa e le sepe se wena mo nonofong ya gago o tlaa ba letlang go se dira.
to do whatever your hand and your council foreordained to happen.
29 Mme jaanong Morena, utlwa go bopa ga bone, mme o neye batlhanka ba gago bopelokgale jo bogolo mo therong ya bone,
Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,
30 o bo o romele nonofo ya gago ya phodiso, le dikgakgamatso di le dintsi le ditshupo di dirwe ka leina la motlhanka wa gago yo o itshepileng Jesu.”
while you stretch out your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of your holy Servant Jesus."
31 Morago ga thapelo e, kago e ba neng ba kopanetse mo go yone ya tshikinyega, mme botlhe ba tlala Mowa O O Boitshepo mme ba rera molaetsa wa Modimo ka bopelokgale.
When they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were gathered together. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
32 Badumedi botlhe ba ne ba le pelo e le nngwe le mowa o le mongwe, mme ga bo go sena ope yo o reng sepe sa dilo tse o nang natso ke sa gagwe; mme dilo tsotlhe ba ne ba di tlhakanetse.
And the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul. Not one of them claimed that anything of the things which he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common.
33 Mme baaposetoloi ba rera dithero tse di nonofileng ka ga tsogo ya ga Morena Jesu, mme ga nna le bolekane jo bo nitameng mo badumeding botlhe.
With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all.
34 Go ne go sena ope yo o tlhokang, gonne botlhe ba ba neng ba na le ditsha kgotsa matlo ba ne ba a rekisa ba tlisa madi kwa baaposetoloing go a abela ba ba tlhokang.
For neither was there among them any who lacked, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold,
and put them at the apostles' feet, and distribution was made to each, according as anyone had need.
36 Jaaka go ne go na le Josefa, (yo baaposetoloi ba neng ba mmitsa “Barenabase wa Moreti!” E ne e le wa Balifi ba kwa setlhaketlhakeng sa Kupero).
Joseph, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas (which is translated, Son of Encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus by birth,
37 E ne e le mongwe wa ba ba neng ba rekisa ditsha tsa bone tse ba neng ba na natso mme ba tlisa madi kwa baaposetoloing gore ba a abele ba ba tlhokang.
having a field, sold it, and brought the money and put it at the apostles' feet.
