¹At that time Herod the king laid his hands on some of those of the assembly to do them hurt,

¹Sa ande kodia vriama o amperato Herod chinuilas uni manushen kai sas Devleske andel khangeria.

²and slew James, the brother of John, with the sword.

²Ai mudardia la sabiasa o James, ophral le Iovanosko.

³And seeing that it was pleasing to the Jews, he went on to take Peter also: (and they were the days of unleavened bread:)

³Ai dikhlia ke so kerelas drago sas le Zhidovonge, phendia te phandaven le Petres. Kodia kerdilia ande vriama le manrhonge bi drozhdi.

⁴whom having seized he put in prison, having delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep, purposing after the passover to bring him out to the people.

⁴Line les, ai thode les ande temnitsa, ai thode desh u shov ketani te arakhen les; ai mangen te sikaven les angla narodo pala E Patradi.

⁵Peter therefore was kept in the prison; but unceasing prayer was made by the assembly to God concerning him.

⁵O Petri sas phandado ande temnitsa; numa e khangeri chi terdiolas te rhugilpe ka Del anda leste.

⁶And when Herod was going to bring him forth, that night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and guards before the door kept the prison.

⁶Iek riat mai anglal kai o amperato Herod zhalas te angerel le Petres angla narodo, o Petri sovelas ai phanglo sas dui lantsonsa mashkar dui ketani; ai aver ketani lenas sama angla wudar katar e temnitsa.

⁷And lo, an angel of [the] Lord came there, and a light shone in the prison: and having smitten the side of Peter, he roused him up, saying, Rise up quickly. And his chains fell off his hands.

⁷Eta, o angelo le Devlesko avilo, ai ek bari vediara strefialas ande temnitsa. O angelo wushtiardia le Petres, ai phenel leske, "Wushti opre strazo," ai le lantsuria pele tele katar leske vas.

⁸And the angel said to him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And he did so. And he says to him, Cast thine upper garment about thee and follow me.

⁸Ai o angelo phendia leske, "Tho chi prashtai ai le shpargati." Ai o Petri kerdia so phendia leske, o angelo mai phendia leske, "Le pe tute chi raxami, ai aidi pala mande."

⁹And going forth he followed [him] and did not know that what was happening by means of the angel was real, but supposed he saw a vision.

⁹O Petri anklisto avri, ai liape pala leste, ai chi zhanelas ke so kerelas o angelo, chache sas, gindilas ke vizion dikhelas.

¹⁰And having passed through a first and second guard, they came to the iron gate which leads into the city, which opened to them of itself; and going forth they went down one street, and immediately the angel left him.

¹⁰Kana nakhle anglal pervo ketani ai porme anglal duito, aresle angla o wudar o sastruno kai angerel ando foro, kodo wudar phuterdiol korkorho angla lende, ankliste avri, ai dine po drom, ai strazo o angelo meklia le Petres.

¹¹And Peter, being come to himself, said, Now I know certainly that [the] Lord has sent forth his angel and has taken me out of the hand of Herod and all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

¹¹Avilo peste o Petri ai mothol, akana dikhav ke chaches O Del tradia peske angelos, ai ke lia ma anda vas le amperatosko, ai so godi le Zhiduvuria azhukerenas.

¹²And having become clearly conscious [in himself], he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was surnamed Mark, where were many gathered together and praying.

¹²Kana haliardia so kerdilia lesa, gelo ka kher la Mariako, woi sas e dei la Iovanoski, kai akharenas les Mark, kotse but narodo sas andek than ai rhuginaspe.

¹³And when he had knocked at the door of the entry, a maid came to listen, by name Rhoda;

¹³O Petri mardia anda o wudar, ai ek shei kai busholas Rhode, avili te dikhel.

¹⁴and having recognised the voice of Peter, through joy did not open the entry, but running in, reported that Peter was standing before the entry.

¹⁴Ai prinzhardia o glaso le Petresko, ai ando pesko raduimos chi phuterdia o wudar, numa geli te mothol le kolavrenge ke o Petri angla o wudar sas.

¹⁵And they said to her, Thou art mad. But she maintained that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.

¹⁵Won mothonas lake, "Dzili san," numa woi motholas ke chaches sas. Ai won mothonas, "Ke lesko angelo si."

¹⁶But Peter continued knocking: and having opened, they saw him and were astonished.

¹⁶Numao Petri mai marelas anda o wudar, ai kana phuterde o wudar ai dikhle les, chudisaile.

¹⁷And having made a sign to them with his hand to be silent, he related [to them] how the Lord had brought him out of prison; and he said, Report these things to James and to the brethren. And he went out and went to another place.

¹⁷Kerdia lenge anda vas te na kerren mui, ai phendia lenge sar O Del lia les avri andai temnitsa. Ai phendia, phenen so kerdilia le Jamesoske ai le kolaver phralenge. Porme gelotar, ai gelo ande kolaver rik.

¹⁸And when it was day there was no small disturbance among the soldiers, what then was become of Peter.

¹⁸Kana phuterdilo o dies, le ketani chi haliarenas so kerdilia, ai chi zhanenas kai sas o Petri.

¹⁹And Herod having sought him and not found him, having examined the guards, commanded [them] to be executed. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea and stayed [there].

¹⁹Ai kana o amperato Herod rodia les, chi arakhe les, ai phushlia katar le bare, ai dia ordina te mudaren le ketanen kai lenas sama lestar.Porme o Herod gelo andai Judea zhando Casarea, te beshel kotse xantsi vriama.

²⁰And he was in bitter hostility with [the] Tyrians and Sidonians; but they came to him with one accord, and, having gained Blastus the king's chamberlain, sought peace, because their country was nourished by the king's.

²⁰O Herod defial xoliariko sas po narodo kai sas ando Tyre ai ando Sidon, numa won avile karing leste. Line pesa pe penge rik, ieka ketani kai busholas Blastus, wo sas pasha amperato, porme gele te mangen katar o Herod e pacha lensa, ke won lestar anenas xaben ande pengo them katar o amperato.

²¹And on a set day, clothed in royal apparel and sitting on the elevated seat [of honour], Herod made a public oration to them.

²¹O dies kai manglia o Herod, liape peste peske tsalia le amperetsisko , ai beshlo po skamin, ai dia lensa duma angla savorhende.

²²And the people cried out, A god's voice and not a man's.

²²Ai o narodo tsipilas, phenenas, "Nai kado manush kai del duma, numa del si."

²³And immediately an angel of [the] Lord smote him, because he did not give the glory to God, and he expired, eaten of worms.

²³Numa strazo o angelo le Devlesko naswardia (dia palma) le amperatos, ke mangelas te garavel pesko barimos, kai trobulas le Devleske te avel, le rhimi xale les, ai mulo.

²⁴But the word of God grew and spread itself.

²⁴E Vorba le Devleski ashundilias mai but ai mai but.

²⁵And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, having fulfilled the service [entrusted to them], taking also with them John, surnamed Mark.

²⁵Kana o Barnabas ai o Saul getosarde penge buchi avile palpale anda Jerusalem, angerde pesa le Iovanos kai akharenas les Mark.
