< Matendo 12 >
1 Wakati huo huo Mfalme Herode Agripa aliwakamata baadhi ya watu wa kanisa.
Etu homoi te raja Herod pora girja manu kunba khan ke dhurise aru bisi digdar dise.
2 Akaamuru Yakobo, ndugu yake Yohana, auawe kwa upanga.
Aru tai John laga bhai James ke talwar pora morai dise.
3 Alipoona jambo hilo limewapendeza Wayahudi, akaendelea, akamkamata pia Petro. Hii ilitokea wakati wa Sikukuu ya Mikate Isiyotiwa Chachu.
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.
4 Baada ya kumkamata alimtia gerezani, chini ya ulinzi wa vikundi vinne vya askari, vyenye askari wanne kila kimoja. Herode alikuwa amekusudia kumtoa na kumfanyia mashtaka mbele ya watu baada ya Pasaka.
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.
5 Kwa hiyo Petro akawekwa gerezani, lakini kanisa lilikuwa likimwombea kwa Mungu kwa bidii.
Etu homoi te, Peter ke bondhi ghor te rakhi thakise, kintu girja manu khan mon pora tai nimite hodai Isor logot prathana kori thakise.
6 Usiku ule kabla ya siku ambayo Herode Agripa alikuwa amekusudia kumtoa na kumfanyia mashtaka, Petro alikuwa amelala kati ya askari wawili, akiwa amefungwa kwa minyororo miwili. Nao walinzi wa zamu walikuwa wakilinda penye lango la gereza.
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.
7 Ghafula malaika wa Bwana akatokea na nuru ikamulika mle ndani ya gereza. Yule malaika akampiga Petro ubavuni na kumwamsha, akisema, “Ondoka upesi!” Mara ile minyororo ikaanguka kutoka mikononi mwa Petro.
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.
8 Yule malaika akamwambia, “Vaa nguo zako na viatu vyako.” Petro akafanya hivyo. Kisha akamwambia, “Jifunge vazi lako na unifuate.”
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.”
9 Petro akatoka mle gerezani akiwa amefuatana na yule malaika. Hakujua wakati huo kuwa yaliyokuwa yakitukia yalikuwa kweli. Alidhani kuwa anaona maono.
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.
10 Wakapita lindo la kwanza na la pili, ndipo wakafika kwenye lango la chuma linaloelekea mjini. Lango likawafungukia lenyewe, nao wakapita hapo wakatoka nje. Baada ya kutembea umbali wa mtaa mmoja, ghafula yule malaika akamwacha Petro.
Jitia taikhan poila thaka duijon sipahi aru bahar te thaka duijon sipahi ke paar korise, taikhan loha laga ekta dorja usorte punchise juntu khuli kene taikhan sheher te jabo paribo; aru etu nijor pora khuli jaise. Titia taikhan ulaikene rasta nichete jaise, aru sorgodoth taike chari kene jai jaise.
11 Ndipo Petro akarudiwa na fahamu, akasema, “Sasa ninajua bila shaka yoyote kuwa Bwana amemtuma malaika wake na kuniokoa kutoka makucha ya Herode Agripa na kutoka matazamio yote ya Wayahudi.”
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.”
12 Mara Petro alipotambua hili alikwenda nyumbani kwa Maria, mama yake Yohana aliyeitwa pia Marko, ambako watu wengi walikuwa wamekutana kwa maombi.
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.
13 Petro alipobisha hodi kwenye lango la nje, mtumishi wa kike jina lake Roda, akaja kumfungulia.
Aru jitia Peter dorjate marikena awaj dise, ekjon chukri noukar Rhoda koi kene dorja khuli bole ahise.
14 Alipoitambua sauti ya Petro, alifurahi mno akarudi bila kufungua na kuwaeleza kwamba, “Petro yuko langoni!”
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.
15 Wakamwambia yule mtumishi wa kike, “Umerukwa na akili.” Alipozidi kusisitiza kuwa ni kweli, wakasema, “Lazima awe ni malaika wake.”
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.”
16 Lakini Petro aliendelea kugonga langoni, nao walipofungua lango na kumwona Petro, walistaajabu sana.
Kintu Peter to dorjate mari thakise, aru jitia taikhan dorja khuli se, taikhan taike dikhi kene bisi asurit hoise.
17 Yeye akawaashiria kwa mkono wake wanyamaze kimya, akawaeleza jinsi Bwana alivyomtoa gerezani. Naye akaongeza kusema, “Waelezeni Yakobo na ndugu wengine habari hizi.” Kisha akaondoka akaenda sehemu nyingine.
Kintu tai taikhan ke hath pora chup thaki bole dikhai dise, aru kineka kori kene Probhu pora taike bondhi ghor pora ulai dise etu taikhan ke koise, “Jai kene etu kotha James aru bhai khan ke kobi.” Aru ta te pora tai dusra jagate jai jaise.
18 Kulipokucha kukawa na fadhaa kubwa miongoni mwa wale askari kuhusu yaliyomtukia Petro.
Aru jitia din hoise, sipahi khan Peter logote ki hoise eku bhi jana nai.
19 Baada ya Herode kuamuru atafutwe kila mahali na bila kumpata, aliwahoji wale askari walinzi kisha akatoa amri wauawe. Basi Herode Agripa akatoka Uyahudi akaenda Kaisaria, akakaa huko kwa muda.
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.
20 Basi Herode Agripa alikuwa amekasirishwa sana na watu wa Tiro na Sidoni. Hivyo watu wa miji hiyo miwili wakaungana pamoja wakatafuta kukutana naye. Wakiisha kuungwa mkono na Blasto, mtumishi maalum wa Mfalme Herode Agripa aliyeaminika, wakaomba mapatano ya amani maana nchi zao zilitegemea nchi ya huyo mfalme kwa mahitaji yao ya chakula.
Aru Herod to Tyre aru Sidon laga manu khan uporte bisi khong thakise. Etu karone taikhan joma hoi kene eke logote taike lok kori bole ahise. Taikhan Blastus koi kene Raja laga kaam kora ekjon ke kotha korise aru taikhan ke modot kori bole phuslai loise. 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.
21 Katika siku iliyochaguliwa Herode Agripa akavaa mavazi yake ya kifalme, akaketi kwenye kiti chake cha enzi na kuwahutubia watu.
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.
22 Watu waliokuwa wamekusanyika wakapiga kelele, wakisema, “Hii si sauti ya mwanadamu, bali ni ya Mungu.”
Kintu manu khan hala kori koise, “Etu Isor laga awaj ase, manu laga nohoi!”
23 Ghafula, kwa kuwa Herode hakumpa Mungu utukufu, malaika wa Bwana akampiga, naye akaliwa na chango, akafa.
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.
24 Lakini neno la Mungu likaendelea mbele na kuenea, nao wengi wakaambatana nalo.
Aru Isor laga kotha bisi-bisi hoi jaise.
25 Barnaba na Sauli walipomaliza ile huduma yao iliyowapeleka, wakarudi Yerusalemu wakiwa pamoja na Yohana aitwaye Marko.
Aru jitia Barnabas aru Saul taikhan laga kaam pura kori loise, taikhan Jerusalem te jaise, aru John kunke Mark bhi mate taike bhi loi anise.
