Mabasa 3
1 Rimwe zuva Petro naJohani vakanga vachikwidza kuenda kutemberi nenguva yokunyengetera, panguva yechitatu yamasikati.
Now Peter and John were going up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, which was the ninth hour.
2 Zvino mumwe murume akanga aberekwa ari chirema, aitakurwa achiendeswa pasuo retemberi rainzi Rakanaka, uye aiiswa ipapo mazuva ose kuti apemhe kuna avo vaipinda mutemberi.
And a certain man, lame from his mother’s womb, was carried along, whom they laid daily at that gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, that he might ask charity of those who were going into the temple.
3 Akati aona Petro naJohani voda kupinda, akavakumbira mari.
This man, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked charity.
4 Petro akamutarisisa, Johani akadarowo. Ipapo Petro akati kwaari, “Titarise!”
But Peter, fixing his eyes on him with John, said: Look on us.
5 Saka murume akavatarira, achifunga kuti achapiwa chinhu navo.
And he gave heed to them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Ipapo Petro akati, “Sirivha negoridhe handina, asi chandinacho ndinokupa. Muzita raJesu Kristu weNazareta, simuka ufambe.”
But Peter said: Silver and gold I have none: but what I have, this I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, arise and walk.
7 Akamubata noruoko rworudyi, akamubatsira kuti asimuke, pakarepo tsoka dzomurume uyu nezviziso zvetsoka dzake zvikasimba.
And he took him by his right hand and raised him up: and immediately his feet and ankles received strength.
8 Akakwakuka, akamira, uye akatanga kufamba. Ipapo akapinda navo mutemberi, achifamba uye achisvetuka-svetuka, achirumbidza Mwari.
And leaping up, he stood and walked, and went with them into the temple, walking and leaping and praising God.
9 Vanhu vose vakati vachimuona achifamba achirumbidza Mwari,
And all the people saw him walking and praising God;
10 vakamuziva kuti ndiye murume uya aisigara achipemha ari pasuo retemberi rainzi Rakanaka, uye vakakatyamara vakashamiswa kwazvo nezvakanga zvaitika kwaari.
and they recognized him, that it was he that had sat for charity at the Beautiful gate of the temple. And they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
11 Mupemhi akati achakabatirira pana Petro naJohani, vanhu vose vakashamiswa vakauya kwavari vachimhanya kunzvimbo yainzi Biravira raSoromoni.
And while he was holding to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch called Solomon’s, greatly astonished.
12 Petro akati aona izvi, akati kwavari, “Imi varume veIsraeri, seiko izvi zvichikushamisai? Munotarisireiko kwatiri sokunge taita kuti murume uyu afambe nokuda kwesimba redu kana nokuda kwokururama kwedu?
But when Peter saw it, he answered the people: Men of Israel, why are you astonished at this? or, why do you look so earnestly on us, as if by our own power or godliness we had caused this man to walk?
13 Mwari waAbhurahama, Isaka naJakobho, Mwari wamadzibaba edu, akudza muranda wake Jesu. Makamuendesa kundourayiwa, uye imi makamuramba pamberi paPirato, kunyange akanga afunga kumuregedza hake.
The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Son Jesus, whom you delivered up, and whom you rejected in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to release him.
14 Makaramba iye Mutsvene naiye Akarurama Oga uye mukakumbira kuti mhondi isunungurwe.
But you rejected the Holy and Just One, and demanded that a murderer should be given to you;
15 Makauraya muvambi woupenyu, asi Mwari akamumutsa kubva kuvakafa. Isu tiri zvapupu zvezvinhu izvi.
and you slew the Author of life, whom God has raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses.
16 Nokutenda muzita raJesu, munhu uyu wamunoona uye wamunoziva, asimbiswa. Izita raJesu uye nokutenda kunouya kubudikidza naye kwauyisa kuporeswa uku kwaari, sezvamunoona imi mose.
And his name, by faith in his name, has made this man strong whom you see and know; even the faith which is by him, has given him this entire soundness in the presence of you all.
17 “Zvino, hama dzangu, ndinoziva kuti makaita nokusaziva sezvakangoitawo vatungamiri venyu.
And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance you did this, as did also your rulers.
18 Asi ndiwo mazadzisiro akaita Mwari zvaakataura kare kubudikidza navaprofita vose, achitaura kuti Kristu wake aizotambudzika.
But the things which God foretold by the mouth of all his prophets, that the Christ should suffer, he has thus fulfilled.
19 Naizvozvo, tendeukai zvino, mudzokere kuna Mwari, kuitira kuti zvivi zvenyu zvidzimwe, kuti nguva dzokuvandudzwa dzinobva kuna She dzisvike
Repent, therefore, and turn, in order that your sins may be blotted out, so that seasons of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,
20 uye kuti atume Kristu, iye akagadzwa nokuda kwenyu, iye Jesu.
and that he may send Jesus Christ, who was destined for you;
21 Anofanira kumboramba ari kudenga kusvikira nguva yokuti Mwari avandudze zvinhu zvose yasvika, sezvaakavimbisa kare kare kubudikidza navaprofita vake vatsvene. (aiōn g165)
whom heaven must retain, till the time for restoring all things that God has spoken by the mouth of his holy prophets of ancient times. (aiōn g165)
22 Nokuti Mozisi akati, ‘Ishe Mwari wenyu achakumutsirai muprofita akafanana neni kubva pakati pavanhu venyu chaivo; munofanira kuteerera zvose zvaanokuudzai.
For Moses said to the fathers, A prophet like me shall the Lord your God raise up for you from among your brethren; him shall you hear in all things that he shall say to you.
23 Ani naani zvake asingamuteereri achaparadzwa kwazvo pakati pavanhu vokwake.’
And it shall come to pass, that every soul that will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
24 “Zvirokwazvo, vaprofita vose kubva kuna Samueri zvichienda mberi, vazhinji vavo vakataura, vakaprofita nezvamazuva ano.
And all the prophets, from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have also foretold these days.
25 Imi muri vadyi venhaka yavaprofita neyesungano yakaitwa naMwari namadzibaba enyu. Akati kuna Abhurahama, ‘Marudzi ose apanyika acharopafadzwa kubudikidza navana vako.’
You are the sons of the prophets, and of the covenant that God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in your offspring shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
26 Mwari akati amutsa muranda wake, akatanga kumutuma kwamuri kuti akuropafadzei nokukutendeutsai mumwe nomumwe wenyu kubva panzira dzenyu dzakaipa.”
To you first, God, having raised up his Son Jesus, has sent him to bless you, in turning every one of you away from his iniquities.
