< Acts 12 >
1 Ní àkókò ìgbà náà ni Herodu ọba sì nawọ́ rẹ̀ mú àwọn kan nínú ìjọ, pẹ̀lú èrò láti pọ́n wọn lójú.
Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.
2 Ó sì fi idà pa Jakọbu arákùnrin Johanu.
And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
3 Nígbà tí ó sì rí pé èyí dùn mọ́ àwọn Júù nínú, ó sì nawọ́ mú Peteru pẹ̀lú. Ó sì jẹ́ ìgbà àjọ àìwúkàrà.
And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
4 Nígbà tí o sì mú un, ó fi i sínú túbú, ó fi lé àwọn ẹ̀ṣọ́ mẹ́rin ti ọmọ-ogun lọ́wọ́ láti máa ṣọ́ ọ. Herodu ń rò láti mú un jáde fún àwọn ènìyàn lẹ́yìn ìrékọjá fún ìdájọ́.
And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
5 Nítorí náà wọn fi Peteru pamọ́ sínú túbú; ṣùgbọ́n ìjọ ń fi ìtara gbàdúrà sọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run fún un.
Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.
6 Ní òru náà gan an ti Herodu ìbá sì mú un jáde, Peteru ń sùn láàrín àwọn ọmọ-ogun méjì, a fi ẹ̀wọ̀n méjì dè é, ẹ̀ṣọ́ sí wà ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà, wọ́n ń ṣọ́ túbú náà.
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 Sì wò ó, angẹli Olúwa farahàn, ìmọ́lẹ̀ sì mọ́ nínú túbú; ó sì lu Peteru pẹ́pẹ́ lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́, ó jí i, ó ni, “Dìde kánkán!” Ẹ̀wọ̀n sí bọ́ sílẹ̀ kúrò ní ọwọ́ Peteru.
And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he stroke Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
8 Angẹli náà sì wí fún un pé, “Di àmùrè rẹ̀, kí ó sì wọ sálúbàtà rẹ!” Peteru sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀. Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Da aṣọ rẹ́ bora, ki ó sì máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn!”
And the angel said unto him, Gird yourself, and bind on your sandals. And so he did. And he says unto him, Cast your garment about you, and follow me.
9 Peteru sì jáde, ó ń tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn; kò sí mọ̀ pé ohun tí a ṣe láti ọwọ́ angẹli náà jẹ́ òtítọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ó ṣe bí òun wà lójú ìran.
And he went out, and followed him; and know not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.
10 Nígbà tí wọ́n kọjá ìṣọ́ èkínní àti èkejì, wọ́n dé ẹnu-ọ̀nà ìlẹ̀kùn irin tí ó lọ sí ìlú. Ó sí tìkára rẹ̀ ṣí sílẹ̀ fún wọn: wọ́n sì jáde, wọ́n ń gba ọ̀nà ìgboro kan lọ; lójúkan náà angẹli náà sì fi í sílẹ̀ lọ.
When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leads unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.
11 Nígbà tí ojú Peteru sì wálẹ̀, ó ní, “Nígbà yìí ni mo tó mọ̀ nítòótọ́ pé, Olúwa rán angẹli rẹ̀, ó sì gbà mi lọ́wọ́ Herodu àti gbogbo ohun tí àwọn ènìyàn Júù ń retí!”
And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know certainly, 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 Nígbà tó sì rò ó, ó lọ sí ilé Maria ìyá Johanu, tí àpèlé rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Marku; níbi tí àwọn ènìyàn púpọ̀ péjọ sí, tí wọn ń gbàdúrà.
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 Bí ó sì ti kan ìlẹ̀kùn ẹnu-ọ̀nà, ọmọbìnrin kan tí a n pè ní Roda wá láti dáhùn.
And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.
14 Nígbà tí ó sì ti mọ ohùn Peteru, kò ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn nítorí tí ayọ̀ kún ọkàn rẹ̀ gidigidi, ṣùgbọ́n ó súré wọ ilé, ó sísọ pé, Peteru dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà.
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 Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ ń ṣe òmùgọ̀!” Ṣùgbọ́n ó tẹnumọ́ ọn gidigidi pé bẹ́ẹ̀ ni sẹ́. Wọn sì wí pé, “Angẹli rẹ̀ ni!”
And they said unto her, You are mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.
16 Ṣùgbọ́n Peteru ń kànkùn síbẹ̀, nígbà tí wọn sì ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn, wọ́n rí i, ẹnu sì yá wọ́n.
But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.
17 Ṣùgbọ́n ó juwọ́ sí wọn pé kí wọn dákẹ́, ó sì ròyìn fún wọn bí Olúwa ti mú òun jáde kúrò nínú túbú. Ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ ro èyí fún Jakọbu àti àwọn arákùnrin yòókù!” Ó sì jáde, ó lọ sí ibòmíràn.
But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go show these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.
18 Nígbà tí ilẹ̀ sì mọ́, ìrúkèrúdò díẹ̀ kọ́ ni ó wà láàrín àwọn ọmọ-ogun nípa ohun tí ó dé bá Peteru.
Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
19 Nígbà tí Herodu sì wá a kiri, tí kò sì rí i, ó wádìí àwọn ẹ̀ṣọ́, ó pàṣẹ pé, kí a pa wọ́n. Herodu sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti Judea lọ sí Kesarea, ó sì wà níbẹ̀ fún ìgbà díẹ̀.
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 abode.
20 Herodu sí ń bínú gidigidi sí àwọn ará Tire àti Sidoni; ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n fi ìmọ̀ ṣọ̀kan wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, nígbà tí wọn sì ti tu Bilasitu ìwẹ̀fà ọba lójú, wọn ń bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún àlàáfíà, nítorí pé ìlú ọba náà ni ìlú tí wọ́n ti ń gba oúnjẹ.
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 Ni ọjọ́ àfiyèsí kan, Herodu sì wà nínú aṣọ ìgúnwà rẹ̀, ni orí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì ń bá àwọn àjọ ènìyàn sọ̀rọ̀ ní gbangba.
And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.
22 Àwọn ènìyàn sì hó wí pé, “Ohùn ọlọ́run ni èyí, kì í sì í ṣe ti ènìyàn!”
And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.
23 Lójúkan náà, nítorí ti Herodu kò fi ògo fún Ọlọ́run, angẹli Olúwa lù ú, ó sì kú, ìdin sì jẹ ẹ́.
And immediately the angel of the Lord stroke him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the spirit.
24 Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run gbilẹ̀, ó sì bí sí i.
But the word (logos) of God grew and multiplied.
25 Barnaba àti Saulu sì padà wá láti Jerusalẹmu, nígbà ti wọ́n sì parí iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ wọn, wọn sì mú Johanu ẹni tí àpèlé rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Marku wá pẹ̀lú wọn.
And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.
