1Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.
1 A go mo alwaato din ra, Hirodus* kaŋ ga ti laabukoyo na nga kamba salle zama nga ma Almasihu marga boro fooyaŋ gurzugandi.
2He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
2 A na Yohanna beere Yakuba wi da takuba.
3When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during 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.)
4When he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
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 constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
5 I binde goono ga Bitros gaay kaso ra, amma Almasihu marga goono ga adduwa te a se Irikoy gaa da anniya.
6The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of 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 behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side, and woke him up, saying, “Stand up quickly!” His chains fell off from 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.
8The angel said to him, “Get dressed and put on your sandals.” He did so. He said to him, “Put on your cloak, 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 he went out and followed him. He didn’t know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought 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.
10When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out, and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from 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.
11When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”
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.»
12Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark, where many were gathered together and were 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.
13When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a maid named Rhoda came to answer.
13 Waato kaŋ Bitros na windo me kar, wandiyo goy-ize fo kaŋ maa Roda koy ka di boro kaŋ no.
14When she recognized Peter’s voice, she didn’t open the gate for joy, but ran in, and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
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.»
15They said to her, “You are crazy!” But she insisted that it was so. 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. When they had opened, they saw him, and were amazed.
16 Amma Bitros soobay ka windo meyo kar. Waato kaŋ i n'a fiti, i di a mo, kal i dambara.
17But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, “Tell these things to James, and to the brothers.” Then he departed, 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.
18Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
18 A go no, waato kaŋ mo bo, kusuuma bambata te soojey do, hala haŋ kaŋ no Bitros ciya.
19When Herod had sought for him, and didn’t find him, he examined the guards, and commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea 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.
20Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.
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.
21On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
21 Zaaro kaŋ i suuban, Hirodus na nga koytaray kwaayey daŋ ka goro karga boŋ. A goono ga salaŋ borey se.
22The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
22 Jama mo goono ga kuuwa ka ne: «Beene koy fo jinde no woone, manti boro wane no!»
23Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and died.
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 multiplied.
24 Amma Irikoy sanno goono ga say-say ka koy jina.
25Barnabas and Saul returned to TR reads “from” instead of “to” Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John whose surname was 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.
