Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.
1Nunkangupini miljarani Herodilu mitaia Kaparali mili wolarandru palpani mara kurana wonti, tanana jupala.
2He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
2Nulu jirijiribana wonti, tanali Jakobus, Johannini neji, mardakirrali nari ngankananto.
3When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.
3Ja nulu najina, Juda kanali jenia ngantjanani, nulu morla ngankana wonti, ja bakana Petrus patana wonti. Jendranguta pulkurutjeribanibuka pani ditji nganana wonti.
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.
4Nulu nina matja patana, nulu nina kanjangari pungani widmana wonti, ja nulu nina pota mandrumandru mitaia kaparaia mili mandrumandruni jinkina wenti, tanali nina najinajibananto, ngangau nulu ngundrana wonti nina Passani ngadani kana wolarani wondralkala.
5Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
5Tanali Petrus kanjangari pungani najinajibana wonti; ja mili wolarali milingeru wonki nunkangundru Godani ngatjina wonti.
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.
6Herodieli jertapaterinani nina wondralkala, nunkangupini tinkani Petrus mukaturarana wonti mitaia kaparaia mili mandruni terti, kanjangari mandrujeli dupudupu, ja najinajibanietja manani palarani kanjangari punga ngamalkana wonti.
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 his hands.
7Ja mai, Kaparaia angela kulno karakararina wonti, ja praitji kanjangari pungani mintjina wonti: Nulu Petrungu pankitiri nandranandrana wonti, nina jiritjibana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Nurujeli jiritjiau!“ Ja kanjangari nunkani marandru purina wonti.
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.”
8Ja angela nunkangu jatana wonti: „Ngampiau, ja tidnaputa jinkani widmateriau;“ ja nulu jeruja ngankana wonti. Ja nau nunkangu jatana wonti: „Kati pirna jinkani jurkamateriau, ja ngakangu karipateriau.“
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.
9Ja nau dunkana wonti, ja nunkangu karipaterina wonti, ja ko nganana wonti, jenia kantji nganai, mina angelandru pantjiai, a‐ai, nulu ngundrana wonti, nulu mudlamalka najiai.
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.
10Pudla najinajibanietja ngoperalani ja mandrunila matja wiringana, pudla marda manani wokarana wonti, nulu nguraia padakai, naupini munta pudlangu piririna wonti; ja pudla dunkana wonti ja paltuwirdi kulno wapana wonti, ja nurujeli angela nunkangundru danina wonti.
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.”
11Ja Petrus matja tjuruwilparina, nau jatana wonti: „Karari ngani morlalu milkila, Kaparali angela nunkani jinpana warai, ja ngana kulkana warai Herodes marandru ja Juda kana wolaraia kalkaterina pratjanandru.“
12Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
12Nulu jenia matja ngujamana, nau Marianankani, Johannini ngandria, nina tanali dikai Markus, pungani wokarana wonti, woderi marapu mapaterina wonti ngatjila.
13When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
13Petrulu manaia pirnani manani nandranandranani, mili widla, tala nankani Rhote, wokarana wonti ngarala.
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.
14Ja nandru Petruni ngaiala ngujamana, nandru mankinandru mana wata walto ngankana wonti, a‐ai, nani wirina mindrina wonti ja kaukaubana wonti, Petrus manani terkala wapaia.
15They said to her, “You are crazy!” But she insisted that it was so. They said, “It is his angel.”
15Tanali nankangu jatana wonti: „Jidni jirijiri nganai;“ Nandru morlalu kurana wonti, jenia jeruja nganai. Tana jatana wonti: „Jenia angela nunkani nganai.“
16But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him and were amazed.
16Petrulu milingeru nandranandrana wonti. Tanali matja walto ngankana, tanali nina najina wonti ja pirna ngaruparana wonti.
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.
17Nulu tanana marali daudauana wonti tana ngapurinanto, ja tanangu kaukaubana wonti, worderu Kaparali nina kanjangari pungandru dunkalkana warai. Ja nau jatana wonti: „Jenia Jakobungu ja ngatata worangu kaukaubanimai.“ Ja nau dunkana wonti ja piri kulnuja wapana wonti.
18Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
18Matja ditjirinani, tana juljaia mili wata ngalje ngaratutututu ngana wonti, mina Petrungu pantjina warai.
19When Herod had sought for him and didn’t find him, he examined the guards, then commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
19Herodili nina matja wontina ja wata mankamankana, nulu najinajibanietjani kalala kurana wonti, ja jirijiribana wonti tanana wapalkala naria. Ja nau Judaiandru Cäsareaja ngarina wonti, ja naka ngamana wonti.
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.
20Herodes Tyrusalani ja Sydonalani tiririna wonti; tana kulnukulnuni mapaterina wonti nunkangu, ja tanali mitaia kaparaia poto ngamalkijiribanietja Blastus matja karkarkana, tana murla ngatjina wonti, ngangau tanani mitali nunkani buka mitaia kaparaia mitandru tajina wonti.
21On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
21Ditji kulnuni, nina nulu matja kurana, Herodili mitaia kaparaia kati widmaterina wonti, ja nau jaura pirini ngamana ngarina wonti, ja nulu kana wolaraia mudlani jaura kaukaubana wonti tanangu.
22The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
22Kana wolarali nunkangu karkana wonti: „Naupini Godaia ngaiala nganai, ja wata kanaia!“
23Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.
23Ja nurujeli nina Kaparaia angelali nandrana wonti, ngangau nulu wata Godani pirna ngundrana wonti; ja miriwirieli nina tajina wonti, ja nau palina wonti.
24But the word of God grew and multiplied.
24Godaia jaura punkana wonti ja marurina wonti.
25Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John who was called Mark.
25Barnabas ja Saulus Jerusalemingundru tikana wonti, pudlani ngankana matja mudana, ja pudlali bakana Johannes, nina tanali dikai Marcus, manina kurana wonti.
