¹ Bi bésu màggalu Pàntakot agsee, ñoom ñépp booloo nañu ci benn bérab.

¹And in the day of the Pentecost being fulfilled, they were all with one accord at the same place,

² Ca saa sa riir jollee asamaan, mel ni ngelaw lu gaaw te bare doole, daldi fees dell kër, ga ñu toog.

²and there came suddenly out of the heaven a sound as of a bearing violent breath, and it filled all the house where they were sitting,

³ Te ay làmmiñ yu mel ni safara feeñu leen, ñu tasaaroo ci seen biir, toŋ ca kaw kenn ku nekk.

³and there appeared to them divided tongues, as it were of fire; it sat also upon each one of them,

⁴ Noonu ñu fees ak Xel mu Sell mi ñoom ñépp, ñu daldi wax yeneeni làkk, ni leen Xel mu Sell mi maye, ñu wax ko.

⁴and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, according as the Spirit was giving them to declare.

⁵ Fekk booba amoon na ay Yawut yu daloon Yerusalem, doon ay nit ñu ragal Yàlla te bokk ci xeeti àddina yépp.

⁵And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation of those under the heaven,

⁶ Bi nit ñi déggee riir ma nag, ñépp dajaloo, daldi waaru ci li ñu leen dégg, ñuy wax ku nekk sa làkk.

⁶and the rumour of this having come, the multitude came together, and was confounded, because they were each one hearing them speaking in his proper dialect,

⁷ Ñu waaru te yéemu naa: «Gisleen, ñiy wax ñépp, ndax duñu waa diiwaanu Galile?

⁷and they were all amazed, and did wonder, saying one unto another, `Lo, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?

⁸ Naka la man a ame nag, nu di leen dégg, kenn ku nekk ci nun, ñuy wax ci sa làmmiñ, wi nga nàmp?

⁸and how do we hear, each in our proper dialect, in which we were born?

⁹ Nun ñi ay Pàrt, waa Medi ak waa Elam, nun ñi dëkk Mesopotami, réewu Yawut yi, Kapados, Pont ak Asi,

⁹Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and those dwelling in Mesopotamia, in Judea also, and Cappadocia, Pontus, and Asia,

¹⁰ di waa Firisi, Pamfili, Misra ak weti Libi, yi dend ak Siren, nun ak gan ñi jóge Room,

¹⁰Phrygia also, and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya, that [are] along Cyrene, and the strangers of Rome, both Jews and proselytes,

¹¹ Yawut yi ak ñi tuub ci yoonu Yawut yi, waa Kereet ak Araab yi, nun ñépp nu ngi leen di dégg, ñuy yégle màggaayi Yàlla ci sunuy làkk!»

¹¹Cretes and Arabians, we did hear them speaking in our tongues the great things of God.`

¹² Noonu ñépp waaru, ba jaaxle lool, ñuy waxante ci seen biir ne: «Lii lu muy tekki?»

¹²And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one unto another, `What would this wish to be?`

¹³ Waaye ñenn ñi di leen ñaawal ne: «Waay! ñii dañoo màndi ak biiñ.»

¹³and others mocking said, — `They are full of sweet wine;`

¹⁴ Ci kaw loolu Piyeer taxaw, ànd ak fukki ndaw ya ak benn, mu wax ci kaw, di yégal mbooloo ma ne: «Bokki Yawut yi ak yéen ñépp ñi dëkk Yerusalem, dégluleen bu baax te xam lii ma leen di wax!

¹⁴and Peter having stood up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and declared to them, `Men, Jews! and all those dwelling in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and harken to my sayings,

¹⁵ Nit ñii màndiwuñu, ci ni ngeen ko fooge, ndaxte nu ngi ci yoor-yoor rekk.

¹⁵for these are not drunken, as ye take it up, for it is the third hour of the day.

¹⁶ Waaye lii mooy li Yàlla waxoon, jaarale ko ci yonentam Yowel ne:

¹⁶`But this is that which hath been spoken through the prophet Joel:

¹⁷ “Yàlla nee na: Ci bés yu mujj yi,dinaa tuur ci sama Xel ci kaw nit ñépp;seen xeet wu góor ak wu jigéendinañu wax ci kàddug Yàlla;waxambaane yi dinañu gis ay peeñute màggat yi di gént ay gént.

¹⁷And it shall be in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams;

¹⁸ Waaw ci bés yooyu dinaa tuur ci sama Xelci sama kaw jaam yu góor ak yu jigéen,te dinañu wax ci kàddug Yàlla.

¹⁸and also upon My men-servants, and upon My maid-servants, in those days, I will pour out of My Spirit, and they shall prophesy;

¹⁹ Dinaa wone ay kéemaan ci kaw ci asamaanak ay firnde ci suuf ci àddina,muy deret, safara ak ay niiri saxar.

¹⁹and I will give wonders in the heaven above, and signs upon the earth beneath — blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke,

²⁰ Jant bi dina daldi lëndëm,weer wi deretal,bala bésu Boroom biy ñëw,di bés bu mag, bi ànd ak ndam.

²⁰the sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the coming of the day of the Lord — the great and illustrious;

²¹ Booba nag ku woo Boroom bi ci aw turam,dinga mucc.”

²¹and it shall be, every one — whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, he shall be saved.

²² «Yéen bokki Israyil, dégluleen wax jii! Yeesu mi dëkk Nasaret, nit la woon, ku Yàlla dëggal ci seen kanam ciy kéemaan, ay jaloore ak firnde, ya Yàlla defoon jaarale ko ci moom ci seen biir; yéen xam ngeen ko.

²²`Men, Israelites! hear these words, Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God among you by mighty works, and wonders, and signs, that God did through him in the midst of you, according as also ye yourselves have known;

²³ Moom nag jébbale nañu ko, jaar ci nas, bi Yàlla dogaloon te xam ko lu jiitu; te yéen rey ngeen ko ci daaj ko ci bant, jaarale ko ci loxoy bàkkaarkat.

²³this one, by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, being given out, having taken by lawless hands, having crucified — ye did slay;

²⁴ Waaye Yàlla dekkal na ko, daggal ko buumi dee, ndaxte dee mënu koo téye.

²⁴whom God did raise up, having loosed the pains of the death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it,

²⁵ Daawuda wax na ci mbiram ne:“Saa su ne gis naa Boroom bi ci sama kanam,gannaaw mu ngi ci sama ndeyjoor,kon duma raf.

²⁵for David saith in regard to him: I foresaw the Lord always before me — because He is on my right hand — that I may not be moved;

²⁶ Moo tax sama xol sedd,may woy sama bànneex,te it sama yaram di tëdd ci yaakaar.

²⁶because of this was my heart cheered, and my tongue was glad, and yet — my flesh also shall rest on hope,

²⁷ Ndaxte doo bàyyi sama ruu ci barsàq,te doo seetaan sa waa ju sell, mu yàqu.

²⁷because Thou wilt not leave my soul to hades, nor wilt Thou give Thy Kind One to see corruption;

²⁸ Xamal nga ma yoonu dund;dinga ma béglooji ci sa kanam.”

²⁸Thou didst make known to me ways of life, Thou shalt fill me with joy with Thy countenance.

²⁹ «Bokk yi, man naa leen a wax lu wóor ci mbirum maam Daawuda, ne dee na te suul nañu ko; bàmmeelam mu ngi ci nun ba tey.

²⁹`Men, brethren! it is permitted to speak with freedom unto you concerning the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us unto this day;

³⁰ Waaye yonent la woon, te xamoon na ne, Yàlla digoon na ko ci ngiñ ne, dina teg ci nguuram kenn ci askanam.

³⁰a prophet, therefore, being, and knowing that with an oath God did swear to him, out of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, to raise up the Christ, to sit upon his throne,

³¹ Kon gis na lu ñëwagul, di wax ci mbirum ndekkitel Kirist ne, bàyyiwuñu ko ci barsàq, te yaramam yàquwul.

³¹having foreseen, he did speak concerning the rising again of the Christ, that his soul was not left to hades, nor did his flesh see corruption.

³² Yeesu moomu nag, Yàlla dekkal na ko; nun ñépp seede nanu ko.

³²`This Jesus did God raise up, of which we are all witnesses;

³³ Yàlla yéege na ko ak ndeyjooram, te jot na ci Baay bi Xel mu Sell mi ñu dige woon, ba tuur lii ngeen gis te dégg ko.

³³at the right hand then of God having been exalted — also the promise of the Holy Spirit having received from the Father — he was shedding forth this, which now ye see and hear;

³⁴ Ndaxte du Daawudaa yéeg ci asamaan, waaye moom ci boppam nee na:“Boroom bi wax na sama Boroom:‘Toogal ci sama ndeyjoor,

³⁴for David did not go up to the heavens, and he saith himself: The Lord saith to my lord, Sit thou at my right hand,

³⁵ ba kera may daaneelsay noon ci sa kanam.’ ”

³⁵till I make thy foes thy footstool;

³⁶ «Na bànni Israyil gépp xam bu wóor nag ne, Yeesu moomu ngeen daajoon ci bant, Yàlla def na ko Boroom ak Almasi bi.»

³⁶assuredly, therefore, let all the house of Israel know, that both Lord and Christ did God make him — this Jesus whom ye did crucify.`

³⁷ Bi ko mbooloo ma déggee, naqaru xol wu metti jàpp leen; ñu daldi ne Piyeer ak ndaw ya ca des: «Bokk yi, lu nu war a def?»

³⁷And having heard, they were pricked to the heart; they say also to Peter, and to the rest of the apostles, `What shall we do, men, brethren?`

³⁸ Piyeer tontu leen ne: «Tuubleen seeni bàkkaar, te kenn ku nekk ci yéen, ñu sóob ko ci ndox ci turu Yeesu Kirist. Noonu Yàlla dina leen baal seeni bàkkaar te may leen Xel mu Sell mi.

³⁸and Peter said unto them, `Reform, and be baptized each of you on the name of Jesus Christ, to remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit,

³⁹ Ndaxte li Yàlla dige woon, yéena ko moom ak seeni doom ak ñu sore ñépp, di ñépp ñi Yàlla sunu Boroom di woo ci moom.»

³⁹for to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all those afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.`

⁴⁰ Noonu mu artu leen ak yeneen wax yu bare, di leen dénk ne: «Rëccleen ci niti jamono ju dëng jii.»

⁴⁰Also with many more other words he was testifying and exhorting, saying, `Be saved from this perverse generation;`

⁴¹ Ñi nangu ay waxam nag, ñu sóob leen ci ndox, te ca bés booba lu mat limub ñetti junniy nit yokku nañu ci ñoom.

⁴¹then those, indeed, who did gladly receive his word were baptized, and there were added on that day, as it were, three thousand souls,

⁴² Ñoom nag ñuy wéy ci njàngalem ndaw yi ak cig bokk, ci damm mburu ak ñaan ci Yàlla.

⁴²and they were continuing stedfastly in the teaching of the apostles, and the fellowship, and the breaking of the bread, and the prayers.

⁴³ Ragal jàpp ñépp, te ndaw yi di def ay kéemaan ak ay firnde yu bare.

⁴³And fear came on every soul, many wonders also and signs were being done through the apostles,

⁴⁴ Ñi gëm nag dañoo booloo te bokk lépp.

⁴⁴and all those believing were at the same place, and had all things common,

⁴⁵ Ñu jaay seeni suuf ak seen alal, séddoo ko, ku nekk ak la ngay soxla.

⁴⁵and the possessions and the goods they were selling, and were parting them to all, according as any one had need.

⁴⁶ Te bés bu nekk ñu saxoo teew ak benn xalaat ca kër Yàlla ga, tey damm mburu ca kër ya; ñuy lekk seen ñam ak xol bu laab tey bég,

⁴⁶Daily also continuing with one accord in the temple, breaking also at every house bread, they were partaking of food in gladness and simplicity of heart,

⁴⁷ di màggal Yàlla te am yiw ci wetu nit ñépp. Noonu bés bu nekk Boroom bi di yokk ca mbooloo ma ñi mucc.

⁴⁷praising God, and having favour with all the people, and the Lord was adding those being saved every day to the assembly.
