1 Alu logolo Pitar okv Jon kumdw lo, ariumgv gunta aom lo kumbv Pwknvyarnvnaam lo vngtoku.
One day, as Peter and John were going up into the Temple Courts for the three o’clock Prayers, a man, who had been lame from his birth, was being carried by.
2 Hoka Kaapunv Agi minamgo dooto, nyi ako ninyigv singcha ilo gvngv lvpik bogobv rinvgo dooto. Aludwkibv ninyia agi lo baklwk kito nyi vdwlokv morko koonam lvgabv yvvbunu Pwknvyarnv gv Pwknvyarnvnaam bv vngdudw.
This man used to be set down every day at the gate of the Temple called ‘the Beautiful Gate,’ to beg of those who went in.
3 Vdwlo hv Pitar okv Jon bunyia arwngbv aadubv kaapa tokudw, hv ogu achukgo ninyia jikubv bunua kootoku.
Seeing Peter and John on the point of entering, he asked them to give him something.
4 Bunu ninyia kaadichinchin la kaato, okv Pitar mintoku, “Ngonua kaato!”
Peter fixed his eyes on him, and so did John, and then Peter said: “Look at us.”
5 Vkvlvgabv hv bunua kaato, mvngto bunu gvlo ogu achukgo paiji vla.
The man was all attention, expecting to get something from them;
6 Vbvritola Pitar ninyia mintoku, “Vjak ngo gvlo morko achukguka kaama, vbvritola ngo nam jire ngo gvlo ogugo doopvdw: Najaret Jisu Kristo gv amin bv ngo nam mindunv gudungto okv vngkar tokuka!”
but Peter added: “I have no gold or silver, but I give you what I have. In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I bid you walk.”
7 Vbvrikunamv hv gakbwngto ninyigv laakbik laak lokv okv ninyia svvraptoku. Vjakpigobv nyi angv gv lvpa okv gorbwng ngv gwlwktoku;
Grasping the lame man by the right hand, Peter lifted him up. Instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong,
8 hv pokdinpokrin toku, ninyigv lvpa ngv dakdin jitoku, okv vngraptoku angchar vngyarla. Vbvrikunamv hv bunugv lvkobv Pwknvyarnv gv Naam arwngbv aaming gvvto, vngyingla okv pokyingla okv Pwknvyarnv hartvbamtvla.
and, leaping up, he stood and began to walk about, and then went with them into the Temple Courts, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
9 Hoka nyi vdwv ninyia vngkar dubv kaatoku okv Pwknvyarnvnyi hartvbamtv dubv,
All the people saw him walking about and praising God;
10 okv vdwlo bunu ninyia kaapunv agilo dootola koriak karnv gubv kachin tukudw, bunu mvnwng ngv lamdokpanyato okv mvngnyato ogugo ninyia ripv kunvdw.
and, when they recognised him as the man who used to sit begging at the Beautiful Gate of the Temple, they were utterly astonished and amazed at what had happened to him.
11 Pitar okv Jon Solomon gv giabv, vla um vbvching mintoku hoka vngrilo nyi angv bunyia gakbwng toku, nyi vdwv lamngakpanyato okv bunu gvlo joklwk nyatoku.
While the man still clung to Peter and John, the people all quickly gathered round them in the Colonnade named after Solomon, in the greatest astonishment.
12 Vdwlo Pitar nyi vdwa kaapa tokula, hv bunua minto, “Israel gv nyi vdwv, Ho so nonuno ogubv lamdokpadunv, okv nonuno ogubv ngonua kaagap chinchila kaadunv? Nonu vbv mvngdunvre soogv nyi angv sum vngdu kubv mvnam si ngonu atugv gwlwk vmalo jwkrw lokv mvpv nvgo mvngdu ai?
On seeing this, Peter said to the people: “Men of Israel, why are you surprised at this? and why do you stare at us, as though we, by any power or piety of our own, had enabled this man to walk?
13 Abraham gv, Isaak gv, okv Jakop gv Pwknvyarnv, ngonugv abuapa vdwgv Pwknvyarnv, ninyigv Pakbu Jisunyi ninyigv kainv jwkrwa jito. Vbvritola nonuno ninyia rigvdoogvnv vdwgvlo laklwkto, okv nonuno Pilot gv dookulo ninyia toa jitoku, Pilat gv ninyia topu dokubv vla minro koching bvka.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our ancestors, has done honour to his Servant Jesus — him whom you gave up and disowned before Pilate, when he had decided to set him free.
14 Hv darwkto okv alvnvbv ritoku, vbvritola nonuno ninyia toa toku, okv bununo nyi mvki yanv anga alvyabv mvngla tulin kunam lvgabv pilatnyi nonuno koonyato.
You, I say, disowned the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for the release of a murderer!
15 Nonuno singkurikulo vnggv jinv anga mvkito, vbvritola Pwknvyarnv ninyia sikunvnga turkur motoku—okv so sung ngonuv kaarianv vdwv.
The very Guide to Life you put to death! But God raised him from the dead — and of that we are ourselves witnesses.
16 Jisu ninyigv amin bv jwkrwa so lvpiknv nyi anga turnv nvnga jitoku. Nonuno ogu gunyi kaadudw okv chindu kudw mvngjwng lokv ninyigv amin bv ripvkonv; Jisunyi mvngjwng kunam lvgalo ninyia alvmopv kunv, vbv nonu mvnwng nga kaadubv.
And it is by faith in the Name of Jesus, that this man, whom you all see and know, has — by his Name — been made strong. Yes, it is the faith inspired by Jesus that has made this complete cure of the man, before the eyes of you all.
17 “Okv vjv, ngoogv ajin vdwv, ngo chindu ho nonuno ogugunyi okv nonugv nyi rigvnv vdwv Jisunyi chinchirichi mabv rinyato.
And yet, my Brothers, I know that you acted as you did from ignorance, and your rulers also.
18 Klu gvngv Pwknvyarnv nyijwk mvnwng gvlo mimu toku ho ninyigv Kristo ngv hinching chingre; okv hv um svbv jvjv dukubv mvjitoku.
But it was in this way that God fulfilled all that he had long ago foretold, as to the sufferings of his Christ, by the lips of all the Prophets.
19 Vbvrikunamv, mvngdwn tokuka, okv Pwknvyarnv gvlo aanyato, nonuno vbv rikubolo, hv nonugv rimur am mvngnga jiriku.
Therefore, repent and turn, that your sins may be wiped away; so that happier times may come from the Lord himself,
20 Ahtu gvlokv Dow atortornv nvnv dw ngv aariku, okv hv Jisunyi vngmu riku, yvvdw Messiah vla hv nonuno gv lvgabv gakpv kunamv.
and that he may send you, in Jesus, your long-appointed Christ.
21 Hv nyidomooku lo doyare ho dw vv aama dvdvlo ogumvnwng ngv anw malo, Pwknvyarnv vbv mimpa jito ninyigv darwknv nyijwk yvvbunudw krimklu gv rinv lokv. (aiōn g165)
But Heaven must be his home, until the days of the Universal Restoration, of which God has spoken by the lips of his holy Prophets from the very first. (aiōn g165)
22 Moses minto, Nonugv Pwknvyarnv Ahtu nonua jilwkre nyijwk akobv, sijv nga hv jilwknam aingbv, okv nonugv atugv nyi lokv akonv singri nvpv. Nonuno ogumvnwng nga tvvtoka ho nonuno ninyigv minama ritoka.
Moses himself said — ‘The Lord your God will raise up from among your brothers a Prophet, as he raised me. To him you will listen whenever he speaks to you.
23 Akonv yvv ho nyijwk am tvvmabolo Pwknvyarnv gv nyi vdwgvlo mvpin suriku okv mvyakmvchak riku.’
And it shall be that should any one among the people not listen to that Prophet, he will be utterly destroyed.’
24 Okv nyijwk mvnwng ngv yvv doin minpvdw Samuelnyi mindvla okv yvvbunu ninyigv kochingbv aakunv, japta jitoku Silumelu ogugo ridu kudw.
Yes, and all the Prophets from Samuel onwards, and all their successors who had a message to deliver, told of these days.
25 Nonu gvbv nyijwk vdwgv lokv Pwknvyarnv milv jito, okv ogugonyi Pwknvyarnv nonugv abuapa vdwa lvkobv mvrwjinama nonuno mvpinmiyin minsuto. Hv Abrahamnyi vbv minto, ‘Nonugv husi lokv ngo schingmooku gv nyi mvnwng nga ayare.’
You yourselves are the heirs of the Prophets, and heirs, too, of the Covenant which God made with your ancestors, when he said to Abraham — ‘In your descendants will all the nations of the earth be blessed.’
26 Okv vkvlvgabv Pwknvyarnv ninyigv Pakbu nga gaklin riku okv ninyia nonu lo jilwk chore, nonua ayare nonugv akinakin gv alvmanv lamtv loka lingkur moriku.”
For you, first, God raised up his Servant, and sent him to bless you, by turning each one of you from his wicked ways.”
