Imbombo 12
1 Unsiki ughuo untua u Herode akagholosia uluvoko lwa mwene kuvamonga vala vano vihuma kukipugha ulwakuti vavapumusie.
Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.
2 Akam'buda u Yakobo unyalukolo ghwa Yohana ni bamba.
And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
3 Ye alolile kuuti ava Yahudi vikela isio, akankola naju Pettrokange. Ulu lulilya amasiki agha makate aghasita kilule.
And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
4 Ye an'kolile, akamponia mu ndinde pe akavika ifipugha fine fya vasikari ulwakuti vamulolelaghe, alyale ihuvila kuntwala kuvanhu yekikilile ikimike kya pasaka.
And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
5 U Petro akabukua mundinde, looli inyifunyo sikavombua ni ngufu ni kipugha vwimila vwa mwene kwa Nguluve.
Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church to God for him.
6 Ikighono yekikiale u Herode nalutile kukumumia, ikilo ijio akaghonile pakati na Kate pa vasikali vavili kumo akungilue na manyololo ghavili, navaloleli pavulongolo pa muliango vakava vilolela indinde.
And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
7 Lolagha, u nyamola ghwa Mutwa nakalingi akamumia nu lumuli lukamulika nkate. Akantova u Petro muluvafu na pikunsisimula akati, “Sisimuka ng'aning'ani.” apuo amanyororo ghoni ghano akakungilue ghakavopoka mumavoko gha mwene.
And, behold, the angel of the Lord came on him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
8 U munyamola akambula, “Fwala Amanda ghako na fifilato fyako.” U Petro akavimba vulevule. U Munyamola akam'bula, “fwala umwenda ghwako pe umbingililaghe.”
And the angel said to him, Gird yourself, and bind on your sandals. And so he did. And he says to him, Cast your garment about you, and follow me.
9 Apuo u Petro akambingilila u Munyamola akahuma kunji. Nalyakitang'inie kind kilyavombilue nu Munyamola kuuti sa kyang'ani. Akahwanagha ighonela injosi.
And he went out, and followed him; and knew not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.
10 Ye akiling'inie ikilolelo ikilongosi ni kyavuvili vakafika palilyingo ilya kyuma ilya kwingilila kuluta kulikaja, likadinduka lyene vwimila vwa mwene. Vakahuma mulikaja kunji vakika mum'pulo, nakalingi u Nyamola akamuleka.
When they were past the first and the second ward, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel departed from him.
11 U Petro ye itang'inie, akati, “Lino nitike kuuti Mutwa amwomwile u Munyamola ghwa mwene ulwakuti anyimie mumavoko gha Herode, namuhuvilo sa vanhu vooni ava muvu Yahudi.”
And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the LORD has sent his angel, and has delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
12 Ye akagwile isi, akaluta kunyumba ja Mariamu ung'ina wawa Yohana juno ghwe Marko; Avakilisite vinga valyakong'anile vikufunya.
And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.
13 Ye ahodisie kumulyango ughwa kisighililo, u-mbombi jumo uminja juno itambulivua Roda akisa kudindula.
And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to listen, named Rhoda.
14 Ye akaguile lisio lya Petro, nu lukelo akakunua kudindula umulyango; pa uluo, akakimbilila nkate mu kyumba; nakuvavula kuuti u Petro imile kuvulongolo ku mulyingo.
And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.
15 Apuo, vakajova kwa mwene, “Uve ulinyalukwale” looli akakangasia kuuti sakyang'ani ghwe mwene. Vakati “Ujuo ghwe Munyamola ghwa mwene.”
And they said to her, You are mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.
16 Looli u Petro akajigha ifidudusia, ye vadindwile umulyango, vakamwagha vakadegha kyingo. U Petro akavanyamasia nu luvoko Kimie Kimmie pe akavavula ndavule u Mutwa amumisie kuhuma mundinde akati,
But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.
17 “Vavule isi u YakoboYakobo na vanyalukolo va mwene.” Apuo pe akavuka kuluta ku vunge.
But he, beckoning to them with the hand to hold their peace, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go show these things to James, and to the brothers. And he departed, and went into another place.
18 Pano kukava mwisi, lukava lusukunalo mun'kate muva sikali, kuhumilanila na kino kihumile kwa Petro.
Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
19 U Herode ye amulondile nalyambweene akavaposia avaloleli pe akalaghila vabudue. Akaluta kuhuma kuvu Yahudi kuhuma kuvu Kaisaria pe akikala kukuo.
And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and there stayed.
20 U Herode alyale ni ng'alasi vwimila vwa vaanhu ava Tiro ni Sidonia. Vakaluta palikimo kwa mwene. Vakava nikimanyani nu Blasto untangili ghwa Ntua, kuuti avatange. Kange vakasuma ulutengano, ulwakuva iisi jave jilyaplilue ikyakulia kuhuma mu iisi ja Ntua.
And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country.
21 Ikighono kinokilyavikilue u Herode akafwala amenda agha kitua napikukala pakitengo ikyamwene ikya vutua, pe akavadalikila.
And on a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat on his throne, and made an oration to them.
22 anhuAvanhu vakajeghela, “Ili lye lisio lya Nguluve nambe nalisio lya munhu!”
And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.
23 Nakalingi u Nyamola akantova, ulwakuva nalyampelile u Nguluve ulwimiko; akalivua namatekenya akafua
And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
24 Looli ilisio lya Nguluve likakula na kukwilana.
But the word of God grew and multiplied.
25 U Sauli nu Barnaba ye vakwisisie imbombo jivanave vakavuka pala vakagomoka ku Yerusalemu, vakantola nu Yohana juno ilitavua ilyakuholua ghwe Marko
And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.
