< Acts 10 >

1 Ọkùnrin kan sì wà ni Kesarea ti a ń pè ní Korneliu, balógun ọ̀rún ti ẹgbẹ́ ọmọ-ogun tí a ń pè ni Itali.
Now there was at Caesarea a man named Cornelius, a captain in the Italian regiment.
2 Olùfọkànsìn, àti ẹni ti ó bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run tilétilé rẹ̀ gbogbo, ẹni tí ó ń tọrẹ àánú púpọ̀ fún àwọn ènìyàn, tí ó sì ń gbàdúrà sọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run nígbà gbogbo.
He was a devout man and God-fearing, and so were all his household. He gave many alms to the people, and constantly prayed to God.
3 Níwọ́n wákàtí kẹsànán ọjọ́, ó rí nínú ìran kedere angẹli Ọlọ́run kan wọlé tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Korneliu!”
About three o’clock one afternoon he had a vision, and distinctly saw an angel of God enter his house and say to him, "Cornelius."
4 Nígbà tí ó sì tẹjúmọ́ ọn, ti ẹ̀rù sì bà á, ó ní, “Kín ni, Olúwa?” Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Àdúrà rẹ àti ọrẹ-àánú, tìrẹ gòkè lọ síwájú Ọlọ́run fún ìrántí.
He stared at him in terror, and said, "What is it, Lord?" "Your prayers and your alms have risen for a memorial before God," answered the angel;
5 Sì rán ènìyàn nísinsin yìí lọ sí Joppa, kí wọn sì pe Simoni wá, ẹni ti àpèlé rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Peteru.
"and now send men to Joppa and fetch one Simon, who is called Peter.
6 Ó wọ̀ sí ilé Simoni aláwọ, tí ilé rẹ̀ wà létí Òkun; òun ni yóò sọ fún ọ bí ìwọ ó ti ṣe.”
"He is staying as a guest with Simon, a tanner, whose house is near the sea."
7 Nígbà tí angẹli náà tí ó bá Korneliu sọ̀rọ̀ sì fi i sílẹ̀ lọ ó pe méjì nínú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ilé rẹ̀, àti ọmọ-ogun olùfọkànsìn kan, nínú àwọn ti ó máa ń dúró tì í nígbà gbogbo.
And after the angel who was speaking to him was gone, he called two of his household servants and a devout soldier who was in constant attendance upon him,
8 Nígbà tí ó sì tí ṣàlàyé ohun gbogbo fún wọn, ó rán wọn lọ sí Joppa.
and after telling them everything, he sent them to Joppa.
9 Ni ọjọ́ kejì bí wọ́n ti ń lọ lọ́nà àjò wọn, tí wọ́n sì súnmọ́ ilé náà, Peteru gun òkè ilé lọ láti gbàdúrà ni ìwọ̀n wákàtí kẹfà ọjọ́,
The next day, while they were still on their way and were approaching the town, about noon, Peter went up to the housetop to pray.
10 ebi sì pa á gidigidi, ó sì ń fẹ́ láti jẹun, ó bọ́ sí ojúran.
He had become very hungry and longed for food; but while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance.
11 Ó sì rí ọ̀run ṣí, ohun èlò kan si sọ̀kalẹ̀ bí gọgọwú ńlá, tí a ti igun mẹ́rẹ̀ẹ̀rin, sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ilẹ̀.
He beheld the sky opened, and a vessel descending like an enormous sail let down to earth by four corners.
12 Nínú rẹ̀ ni onírúurú ẹranko ẹlẹ́sẹ̀ mẹ́rin wà, àti ohun tí ń rákò ni ayé àti ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run.
In it were all kinds of quadrupeds and creeping things of the earth, and wild birds.
13 Ohùn kan si fọ̀ sí i pe, “Dìde, Peteru; máa pa kí o sì máa jẹ.”
A voice came to him, saying, "Rise, Peter, kill and eat."
14 Ṣùgbọ́n Peteru dáhùn pé, “Rara, Olúwa; nítorí èmi kò jẹ ohun èèwọ̀ àti aláìmọ́ kan rí.”
"Not so, my Lord," answered Peter, "for I have never yet eaten anything common and unclean."
15 Ohùn kan sì tún fọ̀ sí i lẹ́ẹ̀méjì pé, “Ohun tí Ọlọ́run bá ti wẹ̀mọ́, ìwọ má ṣe pè é ní èèwọ̀ mọ́.”
And again a second time came to him a voice, saying, "What God has cleansed you must not call common."
16 Èyí sì ṣe lẹ́ẹ̀mẹ́ta; lójúkan náà a sì gbé ohun èlò náà padà lọ sókè ọ̀run.
This happened three times; and immediately the sail was drawn up into the sky.
17 Bí Peteru sì ti ń dààmú nínú ara rẹ̀ bí òun bá ti mọ̀ ìran tí òun ri yìí sí, si wò ó, àwọn ọkùnrin tí a rán wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Korneliu dé. Wọ́n ń béèrè ilé Simoni, wọ́n dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà.
Now while Peter was greatly perplexed to know what the vision which he had been sent by Cornelius, and had made inquiries for the house of Simon, stood at the gate,
18 Wọn nahùn béèrè bí Simoni tí a ń pè ní Peteru, wọ̀ níbẹ̀.
and called and asked whether Simon who was called Peter was lodging there.
19 Bí Peteru sì ti ń ronú ìran náà, Ẹ̀mí wí fún un pé, “Wò ó, àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́ta ń wá ọ.
So the Spirit said to Peter, who was still pondering over the vision.
20 Ǹjẹ́ dìde, sọ̀kalẹ̀ kí ó sì bá wọn lọ, má ṣe kó ara ró láti bá wọn lọ, nítorí èmi ni ó rán wọn.”
"Three men are now looking for you. Rise, go down and go with them, nothing doubting; for it is I who have sent them."
21 Nígbà náà ni Peteru sọ̀kalẹ̀ tọ àwọn ọkùnrin náà tí a rán, ó sì wí pé, “Wò ó, èmi ni ẹni tí ẹ̀yin ń wá, kín ni ìdí rẹ̀ ti ẹ fi wá?”
So Peter went down to the men and said. "I am the man you are looking for. What is the reason of your coming?"
22 Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Korneliu balógun ọ̀rún, ọkùnrin olóòtítọ́, àti ẹni ti ó bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run, tí ó sì ní orúkọ rere lọ́dọ̀ gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè àwọn Júù, òun ni a ti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run kọ́ nípasẹ̀ angẹli mímọ́, láti ránṣẹ́ pè ọ́ wá sí ilé rẹ̀ àti láti gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ lẹ́nu rẹ.”
"Cornelius," they answered, "a captain, a devout man, and God- fearing, of whom the whole, Jewish nation speaks well, was instructed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house, and to listen to your message."
23 Nígbà náà ni Peteru pè wọ́n wọlé, ó gbà wọ́n lálejò. Ní ọjọ́ kejì, ó sì dìde, ó bá wọn lọ, díẹ̀ nínú àwọn ti o ti gbàgbọ́ ní Joppa sì bá a lọ pẹ̀lú.
So he invited them in and gave them lodging. The next day he rose, and went off with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied them;
24 Lọ́jọ́ kejì wọ́n sì wọ Kesarea, Korneliu sì ti ń retí wọn, ó sì ti pe àwọn ìbátan àti àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ tímọ́tímọ́ jọ.
and the day after that they reached Caesarea. There Cornelius was waiting for them, and had brought together all his relatives and intimate friends.
25 Ó sì ṣe bí Peteru ti ń wọlé, Korneliu pàdé rẹ̀, ó wólẹ̀ lẹ́sẹ̀ rẹ̀, ó sì foríbalẹ̀ fún un.
When Peter entered the house Cornelius met him, fell at his feet, and worshiped him;
26 Ṣùgbọ́n Peteru gbé e dìde, ó ni, “Dìde ènìyàn ni èmi tìkára mi pẹ̀lú.”
but Peter lifted him up. "Stand up," he said, "I am only a man, myself."
27 Bí ó sì ti ń bá a sọ̀rọ̀, ó wọlé ó sì rí àwọn ènìyàn púpọ̀ tí wọ́n péjọ.
And as he talked with him, he went in and found a large company assembled.
28 Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀yin mọ̀ bí ó ti jẹ́ èèwọ̀ fún ẹni tí ó jẹ́ Júù, láti bá ẹni tí ó jẹ́ ará ilẹ̀ mìíràn kẹ́gbẹ́, tàbí láti tọ̀ ọ́ wá; ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run ti fihàn mi pé, ki èmi má ṣe pé ẹnikẹ́ni ni èèwọ̀ tàbí aláìmọ́.
To them he said. "You know, yourselves, that it is illegal for a Jew to associate with or to visit one of another nation; but God has taught me that I should not call any man common or unclean. For this reason, when sent for, I came without demur.
29 Nítorí náà ni mo sì ṣe wá ní àìjiyàn, bí a ti ránṣẹ́ pè mi, ǹjẹ́ mo béèrè, nítorí kín ní ẹ̀yin ṣe ránṣẹ́ pè mi?”
"I ask therefore why you sent for me."
30 Korneliu sì dáhùn pé, “Ní ìjẹrin, mo ń ṣe àdúrà wákàtí kẹsànán ọjọ́ ni ilé mi títí di idayìí, sì wò ó, ọkùnrin kan aláṣọ, àlà dúró níwájú mi.
Cornelius answered. "Three days ago, at this very hour, I was praying in my house at three o’clock in the afternoon, when suddenly a man in a shining robe stood by me,
31 Ó sì wí pé, ‘Korneliu, a gbọ́ àdúrà rẹ, ọrẹ-àánú rẹ̀ sì wà ni ìrántí níwájú Ọlọ́run.
and said. "‘Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Ǹjẹ́ ránṣẹ́ lọ sí Joppa, kí ó sì pe Simoni wá, ẹni ti àpèlé rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Peteru; ó wọ̀ ní ilé Simoni aláwọ létí òkun.’
"‘So send to Joppa and summon Simon, who is called Peter. He is lodging with Simon the tanner, in a house by the seaside.’
33 Nítorí náà ni mo sì ṣe ránṣẹ́ sì ọ lójúkan náà, ìwọ sì ṣeun tí ó fi wá. Gbogbo wa pé níwájú Ọlọ́run nísinsin yìí, láti gbọ́ ohun gbogbo, ti a pàṣẹ fún ọ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá.”
"So I sent for you without delay, and you have been kind enough to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God, to listen to what the Lord has commanded you to speak."
34 Peteru sì ya ẹnu rẹ, ó sì wí pé, “Nítòótọ́ mo wòye pé, Ọlọ́run kì í ṣe ojúsàájú ènìyàn.
Then Peter began to speak. "Of a truth I begin to see quite plainly that God is no respecter of persons;
35 Ṣùgbọ́n ni gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè, ẹni tí ó bá bẹ̀rù rẹ̀, ti ó sì ń ṣiṣẹ́ òdodo, ẹni ìtẹ́wọ́gbà ni lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.
"but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
36 Ẹyin mọ ọrọ̀ tí Ọlọ́run rán sí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli láti kéde ìròyìn ayọ̀ àlàáfíà nípasẹ̀ Jesu Kristi, ẹni ti ṣe Olúwa ohun gbogbo.
"You cannot but know the message which he sent to the descendants of Israel, when he preached the gospel of peace by Jesus Christ who is Lord of all;
37 Ẹ̀yin náà mọ ọ̀rọ̀ náà tí a kéde rẹ̀ yíká gbogbo Judea, tí a bẹ̀rẹ̀ rẹ̀ láti Galili, lẹ́yìn bamitiisi ti Johanu wàásù rẹ̀.
"you know the message spread throughout all Judea, beginning in Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 Àní Jesu ti Nasareti, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ọlọ́run ti da Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ àti agbára le lórí; ẹni tí ó ń kiri ṣe oore, ó ń ṣe ìmúláradá gbogbo àwọn tí èṣù sì ń pọ́n lójú; nítorí Ọlọ́run wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
"how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went about everywhere doing good, and curing all who were oppressed by the devil; for God was with him.
39 “Àwa sì ni ẹlẹ́rìí gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, ní ilẹ̀ àwọn Júù, àti ni Jerusalẹmu. Ẹni tí wọ́n pa nípa gbígbékọ́ sí orí igi.
"And we were witnesses of all that he did, both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him, hanging him on a tree.
40 Òun ni Ọlọ́run jí dìde ni ọjọ́ kẹta ó sì fi i hàn gbangba.
"But him God raised up on the third day, and permitted him to be made manifest,
41 Kì í ṣe fún gbogbo ènìyàn ni o ri, bí kò ṣe fún àwa ti a jẹ́ ẹlẹ́rìí ti a ti ọwọ́ Ọlọ́run yàn tẹ̀lé, ti a bá a jẹ, ti a sì bá à mu lẹ́yìn ìgbà ti ó jíǹde kúrò nínú òkú.
"not to all the people, but to witnesses - men previously chosen by God - that is, to us, who ate and drank with him after he had risen from the dead;
42 Ó sì pàṣẹ fún wa láti wàásù fún àwọn ènìyàn, àti láti jẹ́rìí pé, òun ni a ti ọwọ́ Ọlọ́run yàn ṣe onídàájọ́ ààyè àti òkú.
"when he charged us to preach to the people, and to testify that this was he whom God ordained to be the judge of the living and of the dead.

"To him all the prophets bear witness, testifying that through his name every one that believes on him will receive remission of sins."
44 Bí Peteru sì ti ń sọ ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí lẹ́nu, Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ bà lé gbogbo àwọn ti ó gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ náà.
While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit fell on all who were listening to the message.
45 Ẹnu sì yà àwọn onígbàgbọ́ ti a ti kọ nílà tí wọ́n bá Peteru wá, nítorí ti a tu ẹ̀bùn Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ sórí àwọn aláìkọlà pẹ̀lú.
And all the Jewish believers who had accompanied Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the Gentiles also.
46 Nítorí wọ́n gbọ́, wọ́n ń fọ onírúurú èdè, wọn sì yin Ọlọ́run lógo. Nígbà náà ni Peteru dáhùn wí pé,
For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.
47 “Ẹnikẹ́ni ha lè ṣòfin pe, kí a má bamitiisi àwọn wọ̀nyí tí wọ́n gba Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ bí àwa?”
Then Peter said, "Can any one refuse water for the baptism of these men who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?"
48 Ó sì pàṣẹ kí a bamitiisi wọn ni orúkọ Jesu Kristi. Nígbà náà ni wọ́n bẹ̀ ẹ́ kí ó dúró ni ọjọ́ mélòó kan.
And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they begged him to remain with them for a time.
