Mabasa 3
1 Rimwe zuva Petro naJohani vakanga vachikwidza kuenda kutemberi nenguva yokunyengetera, panguva yechitatu yamasikati.
And it occurred, as Simon Cephas and John went together up to the temple, at the time of prayer, being 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.
that, lo, those accustomed to bring a man lame from his mother's womb, brought him and laid him at the gate of the temple called Beautiful; that he might ask alms of those going into the temple.
3 Akati aona Petro naJohani voda kupinda, akavakumbira mari.
This man, when he saw Simon and John going into the temple, asked them to give him alms.
4 Petro akamutarisisa, Johani akadarowo. Ipapo Petro akati kwaari, “Titarise!”
And Simon and John looked on him, and said to him: Look on us.
5 Saka murume akavatarira, achifunga kuti achapiwa chinhu navo.
And he looked on them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Ipapo Petro akati, “Sirivha negoridhe handina, asi chandinacho ndinokupa. Muzita raJesu Kristu weNazareta, simuka ufambe.”
Simon said to him: Gold and silver, I have not; but what I have, I give to thee; in the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah, the Nazarean, rise up and walk.
7 Akamubata noruoko rworudyi, akamubatsira kuti asimuke, pakarepo tsoka dzomurume uyu nezviziso zvetsoka dzake zvikasimba.
And he took him by the right hand, and raised him up: and forthwith, his feet and his heels recovered strength.
8 Akakwakuka, akamira, uye akatanga kufamba. Ipapo akapinda navo mutemberi, achifamba uye achisvetuka-svetuka, achirumbidza Mwari.
And he sprang, stood up, and walked: and he entered 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, as he walked and praised God.
10 vakamuziva kuti ndiye murume uya aisigara achipemha ari pasuo retemberi rainzi Rakanaka, uye vakakatyamara vakashamiswa kwazvo nezvakanga zvaitika kwaari.
And they knew that he was the beggar, who sat daily and asked alms, at the gate called Beautiful: and they were filled with wonder and admiration at what had occurred.
11 Mupemhi akati achakabatirira pana Petro naJohani, vanhu vose vakashamiswa vakauya kwavari vachimhanya kunzvimbo yainzi Biravira raSoromoni.
And as he held fast to Simon and John, all the people admiring ran to them at the portico called Solomon's.
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?
And when Simon saw it, he answered and said to them: Men, sons of Israel, why do ye wonder at this? or why do ye gaze on us, as if by our own power or authority we had made 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, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he would have justified him and set him free.
14 Makaramba iye Mutsvene naiye Akarurama Oga uye mukakumbira kuti mhondi isunungurwe.
But ye denied the holy and just One, and demanded that a murderer should be released to you.
15 Makauraya muvambi woupenyu, asi Mwari akamumutsa kubva kuvakafa. Isu tiri zvapupu zvezvinhu izvi.
And that Prince of life ye slew; and him, hath God raised from the dead, and all of us are witnesses of it.
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, by the faith in his name, he hath strengthened and cured this man, whom ye see and know; and faith in him hath given the man this soundness before you all.
17 “Zvino, hama dzangu, ndinoziva kuti makaita nokusaziva sezvakangoitawo vatungamiri venyu.
And now, my brethren, I know that through misapprehensions ye did this, as did also your chiefs:
18 Asi ndiwo mazadzisiro akaita Mwari zvaakataura kare kubudikidza navaprofita vose, achitaura kuti Kristu wake aizotambudzika.
and God, according as he had previously announced by the mouth of all the prophets that the Messiah would suffer, hath in this manner fulfilled it.
19 Naizvozvo, tendeukai zvino, mudzokere kuna Mwari, kuitira kuti zvivi zvenyu zvidzimwe, kuti nguva dzokuvandudzwa dzinobva kuna She dzisvike
Repent, therefore, and be converted; that so your sins may be blotted out,
20 uye kuti atume Kristu, iye akagadzwa nokuda kwenyu, iye Jesu.
and times of rest may come to you from before the face of the Lord; and he may send to you him, who was made ready for you, Jesus the Messiah:
21 Anofanira kumboramba ari kudenga kusvikira nguva yokuti Mwari avandudze zvinhu zvose yasvika, sezvaakavimbisa kare kare kubudikidza navaprofita vake vatsvene. (aiōn g165)
whom the heavens must retain, until the completion of the times of those things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of his holy prophets of old. (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: A prophet, like me, will the Lord raise up to you, from among your brethren; to him hearken ye, in all that he shall say to you.
23 Ani naani zvake asingamuteereri achaparadzwa kwazvo pakati pavanhu vokwake.’
And it will be, that every soul who will not hearken to that prophet, that soul shall perish from his people.
24 “Zvirokwazvo, vaprofita vose kubva kuna Samueri zvichienda mberi, vazhinji vavo vakataura, vakaprofita nezvamazuva ano.
And all the prophets that have been, from Samuel and those after him, have spoken and proclaimed of these days.
25 Imi muri vadyi venhaka yavaprofita neyesungano yakaitwa naMwari namadzibaba enyu. Akati kuna Abhurahama, ‘Marudzi ose apanyika acharopafadzwa kubudikidza navana vako.’
Ye are the children of the prophets: and that covenant which God made with our fathers, when he said to Abraham, that in thy seed 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.”
he hath first established to you: and God hath sent his Son to bless you, if ye will be converted, and repent of your wickedness.
