Acts 2
1 Nígbà tí ọjọ́ Pentikosti sì dé, gbogbo wọn fi ọkàn kan wà ní ibìkan.
In the course of the Festival at the close of the Harvest the disciples had all met together,
2 Lójijì ìró sì ti ọ̀run wá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìró ẹ̀fúùfù líle, ó sì kún gbogbo ilé níbi tí wọ́n gbé jókòó.
when suddenly there came from the heavens a noise like a strong wind rushing by; it filled the whole house in which they were sitting.
3 Ẹ̀là ahọ́n bí i iná sì yọ sí wọn, ó pín, ó sì bà lé olúkúlùkù wọn.
Then there appeared tongues of what seemed to be flame, separating, so that one settled on each of them;
4 Gbogbo wọn sì kún fún Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́, wọn sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í fi èdè mìíràn sọ̀rọ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ẹ̀mí ti fi fún wọn ni ohùn.
and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in different languages as the Spirit prompted their utterances.
5 Àwọn Júù olùfọkànsìn láti orílẹ̀-èdè gbogbo lábẹ́ ọ̀run sì ń gbé Jerusalẹmu.
Now there were then staying in Jerusalem religious Jews from every country in the world;
6 Nígbà tí wọn sì gbọ́ ìró yìí, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn péjọ pẹ̀lú ìyàlẹ́nu, nítorí tí olúkúlùkù gbọ́ tí wọ́n ń sọ̀rọ̀ ní èdè rẹ̀.
and, when this sound was heard, numbers of people collected, in the greatest excitement, because each of them heard the disciples speaking in his own language.
7 Ẹnu sì yà wọ́n, wọn ń wí fún ara wọn pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ara Galili kọ́ ni gbogbo àwọn tí ń sọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí jẹ́?
They were utterly amazed, and kept asking in astonishment, “What! Are not all these people who are speaking Galileans?
8 Èéha sì tí ṣe ti olúkúlùkù wa fi ń gbọ́ bí wọ́n tí ń fi èdè sọ̀rọ̀?
Then how is it that we each of us hear them in our own language?
9 Àwọn ará Partia, àti Media, àti Elamu; àti àwọn tí ń gbé Mesopotamia, Judea, àti Kappadokia, Pọntu àti Asia.
Some of us are Parthians, some Medes, some Elamites; and some of us live in Mesopotamia, in Judea and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Roman Asia,
10 Frigia, àti Pamfilia, Ejibiti, àti agbègbè Libia níhà Kirene; àti àwọn àtìpó Romu, àwọn Júù àti àwọn aláwọ̀ṣe Júù
in Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the districts of Libya adjoining Cyrene; some of us are visitors from Rome,
11 (àti àwọn Júù àti àwọn tí a ti ipa ẹ̀sìn sọ di Júù); àwọn ará Krete àti Arabia; àwa gbọ́ tí wọ́n sọ̀rọ̀ iṣẹ́ ìyanu ńlá Ọlọ́run ni èdè wa.”
either Jews by birth or converts, and some are Cretans and Arabians – yet we all alike hear them speaking in our own languages of the great things that God has done.”
12 Ẹnu sì ya gbogbo wọn, wọ́n sì wárìrì. Wọn wí fún ara wọn pé, “Kí ni èyí túmọ̀ sí?”
They were all utterly amazed and bewildered. “What does it mean?” they asked one another.
13 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ẹlòmíràn ń ṣẹ̀fẹ̀, wọn sí wí pé, “Àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí kún fún wáìnì tuntun”.
But there were some who said with a sneer, “They have had too much new wine.”
14 Nígbà náà ni Peteru dìde dúró pẹ̀lú àwọn mọ́kànlá yòókù, ó gbé ohùn rẹ̀ sókè, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀yin Júù ènìyàn mi àti gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ń gbé Jerusalẹmu, ẹ jẹ́ kí èyí kí ó yé yin; kí ẹ sì fetísí ọ̀rọ̀ mi.
Then Peter, surrounded by the eleven other apostles, stood up, and, raising his voice, addressed the crowd. “People of Judea,” he began, “and all you who are staying in Jerusalem, let me tell you what this means. Mark well my words.
15 Àwọn wọ̀nyí kò mu ọtí yó, bí ẹ̀yin tí rò ó; wákàtí kẹta ọjọ́ sá à ni èyí.
These people are not drunk, as you suppose; for it is only now nine in the morning! No!
16 Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ ti a ti sọ láti ẹnu wòlíì Joẹli wá pé:
This is what is spoken of in the prophet Joel –
17 “Ọlọ́run wí pé, ‘Ní ìkẹyìn ọjọ́, Èmi yóò tú nínú Ẹ̀mí mí jáde sára ènìyàn gbogbo, àwọn ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọ yín obìnrin yóò máa sọtẹ́lẹ̀ àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin yín yóò sì máa ríran, àwọn arúgbó yín yóò sì máa lá àlá,
‘It will come about in the last days,’ God says, ‘That I will pour out my Spirit on all humanity; your sons and your daughters will become prophets, your young men will see visions, and your old men dream dreams;
18 àti sára àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mi ọkùnrin àti sára àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mi obìnrin, ni Èmi yóò tú nínú Ẹ̀mí mi jáde ni ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì: wọn yóò sì máa sọtẹ́lẹ̀.
yes, even on the slaves – for they are mine – both men and women, I will in those days pour out my Spirit, and they will become prophets;
19 Èmi yóò sì fi iṣẹ́ ìyanu hàn lójú ọ̀run, àti àwọn àmì nísàlẹ̀ ilẹ̀; ẹ̀jẹ̀ àti iná àti rírú èéfín;
and I will show wonders in the heavens above, and signs on the earth below – blood and fire and mist of smoke;
20 A ó sọ oòrùn di òkùnkùn, àti òṣùpá di ẹ̀jẹ̀, kí ọjọ́ ńlá àti ọjọ́ ológo Olúwa tó dé.
the sun will become darkness, and the moon blood-red, before the day of the Lord comes – that great and awful day.
21 Yóò sì ṣe, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ké pe orúkọ Olúwa ni a ó gbàlà.’
Then will everyone who invokes the name of the Lord be saved.’
22 “Ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Israẹli, ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí; Jesu tí Nasareti, ọkùnrin tí a mọ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá nípa iṣẹ́ agbára àti tí ìyanu, àti àmì ti Ọlọ́run ti ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ṣe láàrín yín, bí ẹ̀yin tìkára yín ti mọ̀ pẹ̀lú.
People of Israel, listen to what I am saying. Jesus of Nazareth, a man whose mission from God to you was proved by miracles, wonders, and signs, which God showed among you through him, as you know full well –
23 Ẹni tí a ti fi lé yín lọ́wọ́ nípa ìpinnu ìmọ̀ àti ìmọ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ Ọlọ́run; àti ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú, tí a sì pa á pẹ̀lú ìrànlọ́wọ́ àwọn ènìyàn búburú, a kàn mọ́ àgbélébùú.
he, I say, in accordance with God’s definite plan and with his previous knowledge, was betrayed, and you, by the hands of lawless men, nailed him to a cross and put him to death.
24 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run jí dìde kúrò nínú òkú, gbà á kúrò nínú ìrora ikú, nítorí tí kò ṣe é ṣe fún ikú láti dìímú.
But God released him from the pangs of death and raised him to life, it being impossible for death to retain its hold on him.
25 Dafidi tí wí nípa tirẹ̀ pé: “‘Mo rí Olúwa nígbà gbogbo níwájú mí, nítorí tí ó ń bẹ lọ́wọ́ ọ̀tún mi, a kì ó ṣí mi ní ipò.
Indeed he was the one David was referring to when he said – ‘I have had the Lord ever before my eyes, for he stands at my right hand, so that I should not be disquieted.
26 Nítorí náà inú mi dùn, ahọ́n mi sì yọ̀, pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú ara mi yóò sì sinmi ní ìrètí.
Therefore my heart was cheered, and my tongue told its delight; yes, even my body, too, will rest in hope;
27 Nítorí tí ìwọ kí yóò fi ọkàn mi sílẹ̀ ni isà òkú, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kí yóò jẹ́ kí Ẹni Mímọ́ rẹ rí ìdíbàjẹ́. (Hadēs g86)
For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, nor surrender me, your holy one, to undergo corruption. (Hadēs g86)
28 Ìwọ mú mi mọ ọ̀nà ìyè, ìwọ yóò mú mi kún fún ayọ̀ ni iwájú rẹ.’
You have shown me the path to life, you will fill me with gladness in your presence.’
29 “Ará, èmí lè sọ fún yín pẹ̀lú ìgboyà pé Dafidi baba ńlá kú, a sì sin ín, ibojì rẹ̀ sì ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ wa títí di òní yìí.
Friends, I can speak to you the more confidently about the patriarch David, because he is dead and buried, and his tomb is here among us to this very day.
30 Ṣùgbọ́n ó jẹ́ wòlíì, àti bí ó mọ́ pé, Ọlọ́run ti ṣe ìlérí fún òun nínú ìbúra pé nínú irú-ọmọ inú rẹ̀, òun yóò mú ọ̀kan jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀.
David, then, prophet as he was, knowing that God had solemnly sworn to him to set one of his descendants on his throne, looked into the future,
31 Ní rí rí èyí tẹ́lẹ̀, ó sọ ti àjíǹde Kristi, pé a kò fi ọkàn rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ni isà òkú, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ara rẹ̀ kò rí ìdíbàjẹ́. (Hadēs g86)
and referred to the resurrection of the Christ when he said that he had not been abandoned to Hades, nor had his body undergone corruption. (Hadēs g86)
32 Jesu náà yìí ni Ọlọ́run ti jí dìde sí ìyè, àwa pẹ̀lú sì jẹ́rìí sí èyí.
It was this Jesus, whom God raised to life; and of that we are ourselves all witnesses.
33 A ti gbéga sí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Ọlọ́run, ó ti gba ìlérí Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Baba, ó tu èyí tí ẹ̀yin rí àti gbọ́ nísinsin yìí síta.
And now that he has been exalted to the right hand of God, and has received from the Father the promised gift of the Holy Spirit, he has begun to pour out that gift, as you yourselves now see and hear.
34 Nítorí Dafidi kò gòkè lọ sí ọ̀run ṣùgbọ́n òun tìkára rẹ̀ wí pé, “‘Olúwa sọ fún Olúwa mi pé: “Jókòó ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún mi
It was not David who went up into heaven; for he himself says – ‘The Lord said to my master, “Sit on my right hand,
35 títí èmi yóò fi sọ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ dí àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ fún ẹsẹ̀ rẹ.”’
Until I put your enemies as a footstool under your feet.”’
36 “Ǹjẹ́ kí gbogbo ilé Israẹli mọ̀ dájúdájú pé, Ọlọ́run ti fi Jesu náà, ti ẹ̀yin kàn mọ́ àgbélébùú, ṣe Olúwa àti Kristi.”
So let the whole nation of Israel know beyond all doubt, that God has made him both Lord and Christ – this Jesus whom you crucified.”
37 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì gbọ́, ọkàn wọn gbọgbẹ́, wọn sì wí fún Peteru àti àwọn aposteli yòókù pé, “Ará, kín ni àwa yóò ṣe?”
When the people heard this, they were conscience-smitten, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Friends, what can we do?”
38 Peteru sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ ronúpìwàdà, kí a sì bamitiisi olúkúlùkù yín ní orúkọ Jesu Kristi fún ìdáríjì ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín. Ẹ̀yin yóò sì gba ẹ̀bùn Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́.
“Repent,” answered Peter, “and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 Nítorí fún yín ni ìlérí náà, àti fún àwọn ọmọ yín, àti fún gbogbo àwọn tí ó jìnnà réré, àní gbogbo àwọn tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa yóò pè.”
For the promise is for you and for your children, and also for all those now far away, who may be called by the Lord our God.”
40 Pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ púpọ̀ mìíràn ni ó fi ń kìlọ̀ tí ó sì ń fi ń rọ̀ wọ́n wí pé, “Ẹ gba ara yín là lọ́wọ́ ìran àrékérekè yìí.”
Peter spoke to them for a long time using many other arguments and pleaded with them – “Save yourselves from the perverse spirit of this age.”
41 Nítorí náà àwọn tí ó fi ayọ̀ gba ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ a bamitiisi wọn, lọ́jọ́ náà a sì kà ìwọ̀n ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ọkàn kún wọn.
So those who accepted his teaching were baptized, and about three thousand people joined the disciples on that day alone.
42 Wọ́n sì dúró ṣinṣin nínú ẹ̀kọ́ àwọn aposteli, àti ní ìdàpọ̀, ní bíbu àkàrà àti nínú àdúrà.
They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the Common life of the church, to the breaking of the bread and to the Prayers.
43 Ẹ̀rù sí ba gbogbo ọkàn; iṣẹ́ ìyanu àti iṣẹ́ àmì púpọ̀ ni a ti ọwọ́ àwọn aposteli ṣe.
A deep impression was made on everyone, and many wonders and signs were done at the hands of the apostles.
44 Gbogbo àwọn tí ó sì gbàgbọ́ wà ni ibìkan, wọn ní ohun gbogbo sọ́kàn;
All who became believers in Christ held everything for the common use;
45 Wọn si ń ta ohun ìní àti ẹrù wọn, wọn sì ń pín wọn fún olúkúlùkù, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹnikẹ́ni tí í ṣe aláìní sí.
they sold their property and their goods, and shared the proceeds among them all, according to their individual needs.
46 Wọ́n fi ọkàn kan dúró lójoojúmọ́ nínú tẹmpili. Wọ́n ń bu àkàrà ní ilé wọn, wọn ń fi inú dídùn àti ọkàn òtítọ́ jẹ oúnjẹ wọn.
Every day they devoted themselves to meeting together in the Temple Courts, and to the breaking of bread at their homes, while they partook of their food in simple-hearted gladness, praising God, and winning the goodwill of all the people.
47 Wọ́n yín Ọlọ́run, wọn sì rí ojúrere lọ́dọ̀ ènìyàn gbogbo, Olúwa sí ń yàn kún wọn lójoojúmọ́, àwọn tí à ń gbàlà.
And the Lord daily added to their company those who were in the path of salvation.
