1At that time Herod the king laid his hands on some of those of the assembly to do them hurt,
1 A go mo alwaato din ra, Hirodus* kaŋ ga ti laabukoyo na nga kamba salle zama nga ma Almasihu marga boro fooyaŋ gurzugandi.
2and slew James, the brother of John, with the sword.
2 A na Yohanna beere Yakuba wi da takuba.
3And seeing that it was pleasing to the Jews, he went on to take Peter also: (and they were the days of unleavened bread:)
3 Waato kaŋ a di woodin kaan Yahudancey se, a na Bitros mo di. (Buuru kaŋ sinda dalbu bato* jirbey ra no woodin te.)
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.
4 Waato kaŋ a n'a di, a n'a daŋ kasu. A n'a daŋ sooje sata taaci kaŋ ikulu gonda sooje taaci-taaci kambe ra, i m'a batu. Hirodus gonda anniya nga ma Bitros kaa taray jama se Paska* banda.
5Peter therefore was kept in the prison; but unceasing prayer was made by the assembly to God concerning him.
5 I binde goono ga Bitros gaay kaso ra, amma Almasihu marga goono ga adduwa te a se Irikoy gaa da anniya.
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.
6 Waato kaŋ Hirodus soola nga m'a kaa taray, cino din ra Bitros goono ga kani sooje hinka game ra. I n'a haw da sisiri hinka. Batukoy mo kaŋ go meyo gaa goono ga kasu fuwo batu.
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.
7 Guna mo, Rabbi malayka fo bangay a se, annura fo mo na fuwo kaarandi. Malayka na Bitros kar a carawo gaa k'a tunandi. A ne: «Tun ka kay da waasi.» A sisirey kulu mo fun kambey gaa ka kaŋ.
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.
8 Malayka ne a se: «Ma guddu ka ni taamey mo haw.» Yaadin mo no a te. Malayka ne a se: «Ma ni kwaayo daŋ k'ay gana.»
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.
9 A fatta mo k'a gana. A mana bay hala haŋ kaŋ te malayka do ya cimi no, amma a ho hala bangayyaŋ no nga di.
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.
10 Waato kaŋ i bisa batuko sintina da ihinkanta gaa, i to guuru meyo do kaŋ ga guna kwaara gaa, nga mo feeri nga boŋ se. I fatta ka fondo fo gana. Sahãadin-sahãadin, malayka fay d'a.
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.
11 Waato kaŋ Bitros laakalo ye a gaa, a ne: «Sohõ ay bay kaŋ haciika Rabbi no ka nga malayka donton k'ay faaba Hirodus kambe ra da Yahudancey jama hanganyaŋ kulu gaa.»
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.
12 Waato kaŋ a na hayey din lasaabu binde, a koy Maryama kwaara, Yohanna kaŋ se i ga ne Markos nya no. Noodin no boro boobo margu zama ngey ma te adduwa.
13And when he had knocked at the door of the entry, a maid came to listen, by name Rhoda;
13 Waato kaŋ Bitros na windo me kar, wandiyo goy-ize fo kaŋ maa Roda koy ka di boro kaŋ no.
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.
14 Amma waato kaŋ a bay kaŋ Bitros jinde no, a mana meyo fiti farhã sabbay se, amma a bare ka zuru ka koy baaro ci borey se ka ne: «Bitros go windo me gaa ga kay.»
15And they said to her, Thou art mad. But she maintained that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.
15 I ne a se: «Ni boŋo koma!» Amma nga wo tabbatandi kaŋ yaadin no. Ngey mo ne: «A malayka no!»
16But Peter continued knocking: and having opened, they saw him and were astonished.
16 Amma Bitros soobay ka windo meyo kar. Waato kaŋ i n'a fiti, i di a mo, kal i dambara.
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.
17 A na nga kamba sambu ka ne i ma dangay. Waato gaa a ci i se mate kaŋ cine no Rabbi na nga kaa kaso ra nd'a. A ne: «Araŋ ma hayey din ci Yakuba da nya-izey se.» Gaa no a fatta ka koy nangu fo.
18And when it was day there was no small disturbance among the soldiers, what then was become of Peter.
18 A go no, waato kaŋ mo bo, kusuuma bambata te soojey do, hala haŋ kaŋ no Bitros ciya.
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].
19 Waato kaŋ Hirodus n'a ceeci, a mana di a mo, kal a na batukoy hã. Gaa no a lordi ka ne i m'i wi. Koyo mo tun noodin Yahudiya ka zulli Kaysariya kwaara ka goro jirbiyaŋ.
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.
20 A go no, a te bine gumo da Tir da Zidon borey. Waato kaŋ i hin Balatusu kaŋ ga ti koyo kwaara ize, i kaa Hirodus do da bina folloŋ. I goono ga laakal kanay ceeci, zama i laabo goono ga du ŋwaari koyo laabo ra.
21And on a set day, clothed in royal apparel and sitting on the elevated seat [of honour], Herod made a public oration to them.
21 Zaaro kaŋ i suuban, Hirodus na nga koytaray kwaayey daŋ ka goro karga boŋ. A goono ga salaŋ borey se.
22And the people cried out, A god's voice and not a man's.
22 Jama mo goono ga kuuwa ka ne: «Beene koy fo jinde no woone, manti boro wane no!»
23And immediately an angel of [the] Lord smote him, because he did not give the glory to God, and he expired, eaten of worms.
23 Sahãadin-sahãadin Rabbi malayka fo n'a kar, zama a mana Irikoy beerandi. Nooniyaŋ mo di k'a ŋwa kal a bu.
24But the word of God grew and spread itself.
24 Amma Irikoy sanno goono ga say-say ka koy jina.
25And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, having fulfilled the service [entrusted to them], taking also with them John, surnamed Mark.
25 Waato kaŋ i na ngey saajaw goyo toonandi, Barnaba da Sawulu ye ka fun Urusalima. I kande Yohanna kaŋ se i ga ne Markos ngey banda.
