Ananiya ne Safira

Waaliwo omusajja erinnya lye Ananiya ne mukyala we Safira, n’atunda ebibye (A)ne yeeterekerako ku muwendo, mukazi we naye ng’amanyi, n’aleetako kitundu butundu n’akiteeka ku bigere by’abatume.

(B)Naye Peetero n’agamba Ananiya nti, “Ananiya, lwaki Setaani ajjudde mu mutima gwo, n’okulimba n’olimba Mwoyo Mutukuvu ne weeterekerako ku muwendo gw’ennimiro? Teyali yiyo? Era bwe yamala okutundibwa, teyali mu buyinza bwo? Lwaki ekikolwa ekyo kikujjidde mu mutima gwo? Tolimbye bantu wabula olimbye Katonda.”

(C)Ananiya olwawulira ebigambo ebyo n’agwa eri n’afiirawo! Bonna abaawulira ebyo ne bakwatibwa entiisa ya maanyi. (D)Abavubuka ne bayimuka ne bamuzinga, ne bamutwala ne bamuziika.

Bwe waali wayiseewo essaawa nga ssatu, mukyala we naye n’ayingira, kyokka nga tategedde bibaddewo. (E)Peetero n’amubuuza nti, “Mbuulira, omuwendo guno gwe gwo gwe mwaggya mu nnimiro gye mwatunda?” Omukyala n’addamu nti, “Yee, gwe guugwo.”

(F)Awo Peetero n’amugamba nti, “Lwaki mwateesezza okukema Omwoyo wa Mukama? Laba, ebigere by’abo abaziise balo biri ku mulyango naawe bagenda kukutwala.”

10 (G)Amangwago n’agwa wansi ku bigere bya Peetero n’afiirawo. Abavubuka bwe baayingira ne bamusanga ng’afudde ne bamutwala ne bamuziika okuliraana bba. 11 (H)(I)Entiisa ey’amaanyi n’ebuna Ekkanisa yonna na buli muntu eyawulira ebigambo ebyo.

Abatume Bawonya Abantu Bangi

12 (J)Abatume ne baba n’omwoyo gumu ne bakuŋŋaananga mu kisasi kya Sulemaani, ne bakola ebyamagero bingi mu bantu. 13 (K)So ne wataba n’omu ku balala eyayaŋŋanga okubeegattako, newaakubadde ng’abantu bonna baabasiima nnyo. 14 Abakkiriza bangi abasajja n’abakazi ne beeyongeranga okwegatta ku Mukama waffe. 15 (L)Abantu ne baleeta abalwadde baabwe ku nguudo z’omu kibuga, ne babagalamizanga ku butanda ne ku bikeeka, ekisiikirize kya Peetero kibatuukeko ng’azze. 16 (M)Ebibiina ne biva mu bibuga ebiriraanye Yerusaalemi, ne baleeta abalwadde n’abaaliko baddayimooni, bonna ne bawonyezebwa.

Abatume Bayigganyizibwa

17 (N)Awo Kabona Asinga Obukulu, n’abo abaali naye ab’omu kibiina ky’Abasaddukaayo ne bajjula obuggya. 18 (O)Ne bakwata abatume ne babateeka mu kkomera ly’abantu bonna. 19 (P)Naye mu kiro, malayika wa Mukama n’ajja n’aggulawo enzigi z’ekkomera n’abafulumya, 20 (Q)n’abagamba nti, “Mugende muyimirire mu Yeekaalu mutegeeze abantu bonna ebigambo eby’obulamu buno.”

21 (R)Bwe baawulira ebyo ne bayingira mu Yeekaalu mu matulutulu, ne bayigiriza.

Kabona Asinga Obukulu ne be yali nabo ne bajja ne batuuza Olukiiko Olukulu olw’abakulu b’abaana ba Isirayiri, ne balyoka batuma mu kkomera okuleeta abasibe babawozese. 22 Naye abaweereza bwe baatuuka mu kkomera tebaabasangamu. Ne bakomawo ne bategeeza Olukiiko Olukulu 23 nga bagamba nti, “Tusanze enzigi z’ekkomera nga nsibe n’abakuumi bonna n’abaserikale nga bayimiridde ku nzigi; naye bwe tuziggudde, tetusanzeemu muntu n’omu.” 24 (S)Awo omukulu w’abaserikale ba Yeekaalu awamu ne bakabona abakulu bwe baawulira ebyo ne basamaalirira nga beewuunya ebintu ebyo gye binaakoma.

25 Omuntu omu n’ajja n’abategeeza nti, “Abasajja be mwasibye mu kkomera bali eri mu Yeekaalu bayigiriza bantu.” 26 (T)Awo omukulu w’abaserikale ba Yeekaalu, n’agenda n’abaserikale ne babaleeta, si lwa maanyi, nga batya abantu okwegugunga n’okukuba abaserikale amayinja. 27 (U)Awo abatume bwe baaleetebwa, ne bayimirira mu maaso g’Olukiiko Olukulu, Kabona Asinga Obukulu n’ababuuza 28 (V)ng’agamba nti, “Tetwabalagira obutayigirizanga mu linnya eryo; naye laba mujjuzizza Yerusaalemi okuyigiriza kwammwe, era mumaliridde okutuleetako omusaayi gw’omuntu oyo.”

29 (W)Naye Peetero n’abatume ne baddamu nti, “Kitugwanira okugondera Katonda okusinga okugondera abantu. 30 (X)Katonda wa bajjajjaffe yazuukiza Yesu, gwe mwatta nga mumuwanise ku muti. 31 (Y)Oyo Katonda n’amugulumiza okubeera Omulangira era Omulokozi, abeerenga ku mukono gwe ogwa ddyo, okuwa Isirayiri omukisa ogw’okwenenya n’okusonyiyibwa ebibi. 32 (Z)Ffe ne Mwoyo Mutukuvu Katonda gw’awa abo abamugondera tuli bajulira ba bigambo ebyo.”

33 (AA)Awo ab’Olukiiko bwe baawulira ebigambo ebyo ne bajjula obusungu bungi n’okwagala ne baagala okubatta. 34 (AB)Naye omu ku abo abaali mu Lukiiko Olukulu, Omufalisaayo erinnya lye Gamalyeri, eyali omunnyonnyozi w’amateeka era nga n’abantu bamussaamu nnyo ekitiibwa, n’alagira abatume bagira bafulumizibwa ebweru. 35 N’alyoka agamba banne ab’omu Lukiiko nti: “Abasajja Abayisirayiri, mwegendereze nnyo abasajja abo ne kye mugenda okubakolako. 36 Emabegako waaliwo omusajja erinnya lye Syuda, yasituka era n’alowoozesa abantu nti muntu mukulu, era abantu ng’ebikumi bina ne bamugoberera; naye yattibwa abaali bamugoberera ne basaasaana ne bikoma awo. 37 (AC)Oyo bwe yavaawo ne wasituka Yuda Omugaliraaya mu biseera eby’okubala abantu. Abantu bangi ne bamugoberera, kyokka bwe yattibwa, abagoberezi be ne basaasaana ne bataddayo kuwulikikako. 38 (AD)Noolwekyo kye ŋŋamba kye kino nti, Abasajja bano mubaleke bagende! Kubanga, obanga enteekateeka eno y’abantu ejja kukoma. 39 (AE)Naye obanga biva eri Katonda, temuyinza kubaziyiza, kubanga mujja kuba nga mulwanyisa Katonda.” Ne bamuwulira.

40 (AF)Abatume ne bayitibwa, bwe baamala okukubibwa ne balabulwa obutaddayo kwogera mu linnya lya Yesu, ne babata.

41 (AG)Abatume ne bava mu Lukiiko nga basanyuka kubanga baasaanyizibwa okukwatibwa ensonyi n’okubonaabona olw’Erinnya. 42 (AH)Awo ne bayigirizanga mu Yeekaalu buli lunaku ne mu maka g’abantu, nga babuulira Yesu.

But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,

And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.

But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?

Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.

And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him.

And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.

And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.

Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.

10 Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband.

11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.

12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.

13 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.

14 And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)

15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.

16 There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

17 Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation,

18 And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.

19 But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,

20 Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.

21 And when they heard that, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

22 But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned and told,

23 Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.

24 Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them whereunto this would grow.

25 Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.

26 Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.

27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them,

28 Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us.

29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.

31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.

33 When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them.

34 Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;

35 And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.

36 For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.

37 After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.

38 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:

39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

40 And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.

41 And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.

42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
