Asunasi Dunu Ilia Hou 15
1 Be eno dunu ilia da Yudia soge yolesili, A:dioge moilaiga misini, Yesuma fa: no bobogesu dunuma amane olelei, “Dilia da Mousese ea Sema defele, gadofo damusu hou hame hamosea, Gode Ea gaga: su hou hamedafa ba: mu!”
But certain persons came down from Judea, and began to teach the Lord’s followers that, unless they were circumcised, in accordance with the custom required by Moses, they could not be saved.
2 Amo olelebeba: le, Bolo amola Banaba: se da ilima sia: ga gegei. Amalalu, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu da fofada: nanu, Bolo, Banaba: se, amola A: dioge dunu mogili ili asunasi. Ilia da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amoga asunasi dunu amola asigilai dunu, ilima bai adole ba: musa: gini asunasi.
This gave rise to a serious dispute, and much discussion, between Paul and Barnabas and these people, and it was therefore settled that Paul and Barnabas and others of their number should go up to Jerusalem, to consult the apostles and church elders about the matter under discussion.
3 Sese dunu da amo dunu asunasi. Ahoanoba, ilia Finisia amola Samelia, amo soge baligilaloba, dunu fi ilima Dienadaile dunu da sinidigili Godema buhagi amo olelebeba: le, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu da hahawane bagade ba: i.
The church, therefore, sent them on their journey, and they made their way through Phoenicia and Samaria, telling the story of the conversion of the Gentiles, to the great joy of all the followers.
4 Ilia Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amoga doaga: le, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu huluane, asunasi dunu amola asigilai dunu huluane, ilima hahawane bagade yosia: i. Ilia hou hamoiba: le, Gode da gasa bagade hamoi, amo huluane ilia Yelusaleme fi ilima olelei.
On their arrival at Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church, as well as by the apostles and the elders, and gave an account of all that God had helped them to do.
5 Be mogili Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu, ilia da Fa: lisi gilisisu amo ganodini esalu dunu, amo da wa: legadole amane sia: i, “Musa: hame lalegagui Dienadaile dunu ilia Yesu Ea hou lalegagusia, ilia gadofo damuma: mu amola Mousese ea Sema huluane nabawane hamoma: mu!”
Some of the Pharisees’ party, however, who had become believers in Christ, came forward and declared that they were bound to circumcise converts and to direct them to observe the Law of Moses.
6 Amaiba: le, asunasi dunu amola sese asigilai dunu, amo hou fofada: musa: gilisi.
The apostles and the church elders held a meeting to consider this question.
7 Sedagawane fofada: nanu, Bida da wa: legadole amane sia: i, “Na fi dunu! Dilia dawa: ! Musa: ninia fi amo ganodini, Gode da na da Dienadaile dunuma Ea Sia: Ida: iwane Gala olelemusa: , ilegei dagoi.
After much discussion, Peter rose and said: “You, my friends, know well that long ago God singled me out – that through my lips the Gentiles should hear the message of the good news, and become believers in Christ.
8 Gode da dunu huluanedafa ilia asigi dawa: su liligi dawa: E da Dienadaile dunuma hahawane bagade amo olelema: ne, Ea musa: Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala ninima iasu amo defele, E da Dienadaile dunuma i dagoi.
Now God, who reads all hearts, declared his acceptance of the Gentiles, by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as he did to us.
9 E da ilima amola ninima hou hisu hisu hame hamoi. E da defele hamoi dagoi. Ilia da Yesu Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le, Ea da ilia wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoi.
He made no distinction between them and us, when he purified their hearts by their faith.
10 Amaiba: le, dilia da abuliba: le Godema ougima: ne ado ba: ma: bela: ? Ninia amola ninia aowalali dunu da amo musa: sema bagade liligi dioi bagade ba: beba: le, hamomu da hamedeiwane ba: i. Amaiba: le, abuliba: le amo dioi bagade liligi Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunuma olelesala: ?
Why, then, do you now provoke God, by putting on the necks of these disciples a yoke which neither our ancestors nor we were able to bear?
11 Hame mabu! Hina Yesu Gelesu da ninima hahawane dogolegele iabeba: le, ninia Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: be amola nini Helo logoga ahoasu ga: i dagoi ba: sa. Musa: hame dawa: su dunu da amo hou defele, Yesu Ea gaga: su hou ba: sa!”
No, it is through the loving kindness of the Lord Jesus that we, just as they do, believe that we have been saved.”
12 Banaba: se amola Solo da Gode Ea gasa bagade musa: hame ba: su dawa: digima: ne olelesu hou ela da Dienadaile dunu fi amo ganodini hamoi, amo ilima olelelaloba, dunu gilisisu da ouiya: le esalu.
Every voice in the assembly was hushed, as they listened to Barnabas and Paul, while they gave an account of all the signs and wonders which God had shown among the Gentiles through them.
13 Ela sia: dagobeba: le, Ya: mese amane sia: i, “Na fi dunu! Nabima!
After they had finished speaking, James addressed the Council. “Friends,” he began, “hear what I have to say.
14 Gode da Dienadaile dunu fi ilima Ea asigi hou olelema: ne, Ema fa: no bobogema: ne dunu fi ilegei dagoi. Saimone da amo hou ninima olelei dagoi.
Simon has described the manner in which God first visited the Gentiles, in order to take from among them a people to bear his name.
15 Musa: balofede dunu ilia sia: Gode Sia: Dedei Buga ganodini dedei diala da amo hou defele olelesa, amane,
And that is in harmony with the words of the prophets, where they say –
16 ‘Hina Gode da amane sia: sa; Hobea, Na da bu misini, Da: ibidi ea hina bagade hou bu wa: lesimu. Amo da wadela: lesiba: le dafai, be Na da bu hahamomu.
‘After this I will return; and I will rebuild the house of David which has fallen – its ruins I will rebuild, and will set it up once more;
17 Amasea, eno osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu da Nama doaga: mu. Na da Na fi ganodini esaloma: ne, Dienadaile dunu ilegei dagoi. Amo dunu huluane da nama misunu.
that so the rest of mankind may earnestly seek the Lord – even all the Gentiles on whom my name has been bestowed,
says the Lord, as he does these things, known from long ago.’ (aiōn g165)
19 Ya: mese da eno amane sia: i, “Na agoane dawa: ! Dienadaile dunu ilia waha Godema sinidigilala, ilima ninia se imunu da defea hame galebe.
In my judgment, therefore, we should not add to the difficulties of those Gentiles who are turning to God,
20 Be amo hou fisili, ninia ilima meloa dedene imunu da defea. Amane, ‘Ha: i manu da loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ o wadela: i a: silibu ilima imunusa: lai dagoiba: le sema hamoi, amo mae moma. Amola wadela: i uda lasu hou amola sama da ea sama adole lasu hou, amo agoai hou huluane mae hamoma. Amola maga: me mae moma amola ohe fi amo da galogoa ga: iba: le medoi amo mae moma!’
but we should write to them to abstain from food that has been polluted by being sacrificed to idols, from impurity, from eating the flesh of strangled animals, and from blood.
21 Bai Mousese ea Sema da musa: amola wali, ilia Sa: bade eso huluane sinagoge diasu ganodini idilala. Amola ilia da moilai huluane amo ganodini, ea sia: olelelala.”
For in every town, for generations past, there have been those who preach Moses, read as he is in the synagogues every Sabbath.”
22 Amalalu, asunasi dunu, sese asigilai dunu amola Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu huluane, fofada: nanu, ilia gilisisu amoga dunu enoma ilegemusa: dawa: i galu. Amo dunu ilia amola Bolo amola Banaba: se, A:dioge moilaiga asunasimusa: dawa: i. Ilia da dunu aduna, amo Yudase (eno dio da Basaba: se, ) amola Sailase, ela hou hahawane ba: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da amo dunu asunasi.
It was then decided by the apostles and the elders, with the assent of the whole church, to choose some of their number, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. Those chosen were Judas (called Barsabas) and Silas, who were leaders among the community.
23 Ilia meloa dedene, ili gaguli masa: ne i, amane, “Ninia asunasi dunu amola sese asigilai dunu - dilia olalali - ninia da dili Dienadaile dunu A: dioge moilai, Silia soge amola Silisia soge amo ganodini esala, dilima asigi sia: sa.
They were bearers of the following letter – ‘The apostles, and the followers who are the church elders, send their greetings to the followers of the Lord of Gentile birth in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia.
24 Ninia gilisisu dunu mogili da asili, ilia sia: beba: le dilima se bagade iasu, amo ninia nabi dagoi. Be amo hou hamomusa: , ninia da ilima hamedafa sia: i.
As we had heard that some of our number had upset you by their assertions, and unsettled your minds – without instructions from us –
25 Amaiba: le, ninia gilisili, fofada: nanu, dilima ilegei adole iasu dunu asunasimusa: dawa: i galu. Ela da ninia dogolegei na: iyado Banaba: se amola Bolo sigi masunu.
We met and decided to choose certain men and send them to you with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul,
26 Banaba: se amola Bolo da Hina Gode Yesu Gelesu Ea hawa: hamobeba: le, eno dunu ilia ela medole legemusa: dawa: i galu.
who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
27 Defea! Ninia Yudase amola Sailase, dilima asuna ahoa. Ela da lafidili, nini meloa dedei liligi defele dilima adole imunu.
We are accordingly sending Judas and Silas, and they will tell you by word of mouth what we are now writing.
28 Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala amola nini, da asigi dawa: su afadafa hamoi dagoi amane. Dilia dioi bagade liligi amoma mae dawa: ma. Be hagudu dedei liligi fawane nabawane hamoma.
We have, therefore, decided, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to lay no further burden on you beyond these necessary conditions –
29 ‘Ha: i manu da loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ ma wadela: i a: silibu ilima imunusa: lai dagoiba: le sema hamoi, amo mae moma. Maga: me mae moma. Ohe fi amo da galogoa ga: iba: le medoi amo mae moma. Amola wadela: i uda lasu hou huluane mae hamoma. Amo liligi huluane fisili, dilia hou ida: iwane hamosu dunu agoane ba: mu. Dilima asigisa!’
That you abstain from food offered to idols, from blood, from eating the flesh of strangled animals, and from impurity. If you guard yourselves against such things, it will be well with you. Farewell.’
30 Ilia da sia: adole iasu dunu asunasi. Ilia da A: dioge moilaiga doaga: le, ilia sia: beba: le, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu huluane da gilisi dagoi. Amalalu, ilia da ilima meloa dedei i.
So the bearers of this letter were sent on their way, and went down to Antioch. There they called a meeting of all the followers,
31 Ilia da amo sia: idibiba: le, amola asigi sia: amo ganodini dedei ba: beba: le, hahawane bagade ba: i.
and delivered the letter, the reading of which caused great rejoicing by its encouraging contents.
32 Yudase amola Sailase, (ela amola da balofede hou dawa: i) ela da ilima mae beda: iwane, ilia dogo denesima: ne amola gasa ima: ne, sia: sedagawane olelei.
Judas and Silas, who were themselves prophets, further encouraged the them by many an address, and strengthened their faith.
33 Ela da amo moilaiga esalu, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu da ela olofoiwane ela asunasi dunuma buhagima: ne asunasi.
After some stay, they were dismissed with kind farewells from the followers, and returned to those who had sent them.
34 Be Sailase da amogawi bu esalumusa: dawa: i.
35 Bolo amola Banaba: se ela amola da A: dioge moilaiga esalu. Ela amola eno dunu bagohame da gilisili Hina Gode Ea sia: Ida: iwane olelelalu.
Paul and Barnabas, however, remained in Antioch, where they taught and, with the help of many others, told the good news of the Lord’s message.
36 Fa: no, Bolo da Banaba: sema amane sia: i, “Defea! Ninia buhagili, ninia musa: moilaiga nini Hina Gode Sia: olelei, ninia fi dunu ilia waha esalebe hou ba: musa: masunu da defea!”
Some time after this, Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us go back and visit the Lord’s followers in every town in which we have told the Lord’s message, and see how they are prospering.”
37 Banaba: se da Yone Maga sigi masunu dawa: i galu.
Barnabas wished to take with them John, whose other name was Mark;
38 Be Bolo da amo dunu sigi masunu higa: i galu. Bai Yone Maga da musa: ea hawa: hamosu mae dagole, Ba: mafilia soge udigili yolesili, sinidigili buhagi.
but Paul felt that they ought not to take with them the man who had deserted them in Pamphylia, and had not gone on with them to their work.
39 Bolo amola Banaba: se, da sia: ga gegei. Sia: ga bagade gegeiba: le, ela da afafai. Banaba: se da Yone Maga oule asili, foga ahoasu dusagai amo ganodini fila heda: le, Saibalase ogaga doaga: musa: asi.
This caused such unpleasant feeling between them that they parted ways, Barnabas taking Mark and sailing for Cyprus,
40 Be Bolo da fidisu dunu eno amo ea dio Sailase amo ilegele, yolesili asi. Ahoabeba: le, Gode da ela hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu da Godema sia: ne gadoi.
while Paul chose Silas for his companion and, after he had been committed by the followers to the gracious care of the Lord,
41 Ela da Silia amola Silisia, amo soge ganodini Gode Ea fa: no bobogesu fi huluane ilima gasa ima: ne lalu.
started on his journey and went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches in the faith.
