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

¹And about that time, Herod the king put forth his hands, to do evil to certain of those of the assembly,

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

²and he killed James, the brother of John, with the sword,

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

³and having seen that it is pleasing to the Jews, he added to lay hold of Peter also — and they were the days of the unleavened food —

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.

⁴whom also having seized, he did put in prison, having delivered [him] to four quaternions of soldiers to guard him, intending after the passover to bring him forth to the people.

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

⁵Peter, therefore, indeed, was kept in the prison, and fervent prayer was being made by the assembly unto God for him,

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.

⁶and when Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night was Peter sleeping between two soldiers, having been bound with two chains, guards also before the door were keeping the prison,

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.

⁷and lo, a messenger of the Lord stood by, and a light shone in the buildings, and having smitten Peter on the side, he raised him up, saying, `Rise in haste,` and his chains fell from off [his] hands.

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."

⁸The messenger also said to him, `Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals;` and he did so; and he saith to him, `Put thy garment round and be following me;`

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

⁹and having gone forth, he was following him, and he knew not that it is true that which is done through the messenger, and was thinking he saw a vision,

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.

¹⁰and having passed through a first ward, and a second, they came unto the iron gate that is leading to the city, which of its own accord did open to them, and having gone forth, they went on through one street, and immediately the messenger departed from him.

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.

¹¹And Peter having come to himself, said, `Now I have known of a truth that the Lord did sent forth His messenger, and did deliver me out of the hand of Herod, and all the expectation of the people of the Jews;`

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.

¹²also, having considered, he came unto the house of Mary, the mother of John, who is surnamed Mark, where there were many thronged together and praying.

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

¹³And Peter having knocked at the door of the porch, there came a damsel to hearken, by name Rhoda,

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.

¹⁴and having known the voice of Peter, from the joy she did not open the porch, but having run in, told of the standing of Peter before the porch,

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

¹⁵and they said unto her, `Thou art mad;` and she was confidently affirming [it] to be so, and they said, `It is his messenger;`

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

¹⁶and Peter was continuing knocking, and having opened, they saw him, and were astonished,

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.

¹⁷and having beckoned to them with the hand to be silent, he declared to them how the Lord brought him out of the prison, and he said, `Declare to James and to the brethren these things;` and having gone forth, he went on to another place.

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

¹⁸And day having come, there was not a little stir among the soldiers what then was become of Peter,

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.

¹⁹and Herod having sought for him, and not having found, having examined the guards, did command [them] to be led away to punishment, and having gone down from Judea to Cesarea, he was abiding [there].

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.

²⁰And Herod was highly displeased with the Tyrians and Sidonians, and with one accord they came unto him, and having made a friend of Blastus, who [is] over the bed-chambers of the king, they were asking peace, because of their country being nourished from the king`s;

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

²¹and on a set day, Herod having arrayed himself in kingly apparel, and having sat down upon the tribunal, was making an oration unto them,

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

²²and the populace were shouting, `The voice of a god, and not of a man;`

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.

²³and presently there smote him a messenger of the Lord, because he did not give the glory to God, and having been eaten of worms, he expired.

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

²⁴And the word of God did grow and did multiply,

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

²⁵and Barnabas and Saul did turn back out of Jerusalem, having fulfilled the ministration, having taken also with [them] John, who was surnamed Mark.
