Ndu Manzaniba 14
1 Aye he toki ni Iconium, wa Bulus mba Barnaba ba ri hi nimi Synagogue wu bi Yahudawa ba, nda ka tre hu ninkon wa kpaandi, ba Yahudawa baba Greeks ba kpanyeme.
And they came and entered into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke with them, that many of the Jews and of the Greeks believed.
2 Ama Yahudawa wa ba kamba ni zren huba'a, ba chon dri bi kora ba nda duba ti nfu ni mri vayi mba.
But Jews of the class of unbelievers, excited the Gentiles, to maltreat the brethren.
3 Nitu ki, ba ki niki gbron nton, ndani bla gbangban me ni gbengblen Bachi, ndani tsro ba du ba toh tre wa a ton ba wu ya ndindi. A ti toki niwa a tsro kpanyeme wa ndji ba toh ni kikle kpi waasi ti ni shishi mba, zu ni wo bulus mba Barnaba.
And they continued there a long time, and spoke openly concerning the Lord; and he gave testimony to the word of his grace, by the signs and prodigies which he wrought by their hands.
4 Ama ndji bi gbu'a ba gaanyu, bari ba kri ni ngbala Yahudawa, i bari ni manzani ba.
And the whole multitude of the city was divided; and a part were with the Jews, and a part adhered to the legates.
5 Wawu mba, bi kora mba Yahudawa (baba bi ninkon mba) ba wa nkon wu vu ba yo ya nda ta ba Bulus mba Barnaba ni tita,
And an assault was made on them, by the Gentiles, and by the Jews and their chiefs, to insult them, and to stone them with stones.
6 ama niwa ba ble wo toki, ba tsutsu hi ni igbu bi Lycaonia, wu Lystra mba Derbe baba kaagon gran bi koki,
And when they knew it, they departed and fled to the cities of Lycaonia and Lystra and Derbe, and to the villages around them;
7 niki ba si zren ni d'bu tre ndindi'a.
and there they preached.
8 Ni Lystra, iguri a son, hamma ni gbengblen ni zama, chon kple rhi ni nne yimma, wa ana zren to ni son ma na.
And a certain man dwelt in the city Lystra, who was afflicted in his feet, a cripple from his mother's womb, who had never walked.
9 Iguyi a wo bulus si tre. Bulus a yo shishi ma niwu nda toh ndi a he ni sron kpanyeme nitu kpa sii kpama.
He heard Paul speak: and when Paul saw him, and knew that he had faith to live;
10 Niki a tre niwu ni kikle lan ndi, “Lu kri ni za me.” Mleigu'a a lu za kri nda zren kaagon.
he said to him, with a loud voice: In the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah, I say to thee, Rise upon thy feet. And he sprang up, stood, and walked.
11 Niwa kpaandi ba bato kpewa Bulus a ti'a, ba nzu lan ba ndani tre ni el'pa Lycaonia, “Ba rji ba ba k'ma rhu too ndji nda grji ye nita.”
And the assembly of people, when they saw what Paul had done, raised their voice, and said, in the language of the country: The gods have assumed the likeness of men, and have come down to us.
12 Ba yo Barnaba ndi “Zeus,” mba Bulus, “Hermes,” nitu wawuyi ana ninkon wu lantre'a.
And they named Barnabas the Lord of the Gods; and Paul Hermes, because he commenced the speaking.
13 Priest wu irji zeus, wa koobre ma ahe ni kogon kikle gbu'a, anji kikle lando wa ba yra ni loh bre ye ni kikle nkontra gbu'a, wawu mba gbugbu ndji ba, nitu duba ye gon nton nibawu.
And the priest of the Lord of the Gods, who was without the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gate of the court where they lodged, and was disposed to offer sacrifices to them.
14 Niwa manzani ba, Bulus mba Barnaba ba wo toki, ba y'ba nklon mba nda tsutsu hi nda ka kuuyi ni mi ndji ba
But Barnabas and Paul, when they heard it, rent their garments, and sprang and went among the throng,
15 nda ni hla ndi, “Indji-lon, nitu ngye bi ti kpi biyi? Kita ngame ki ndji, ni kpa too wumbi. Kisi bla tre ndindi ni yiwu nitu duyi k'ma gon don meme kpi ndi ye ni Irji wu sissren, wa a ti shulu, ni memee ni kpaama teku, mba wawu kpi wa bahe ni mi mba.
and called out, and said: Men, what do ye? We also are frail mortals like yourselves, who preach to you, that ye should turn from these useless things, unto the living God, who made heaven and earth and seas, and whatever is in them.
16 NI k'ba wa baka hiye, a du gbungblu du ba zren ni nkon kankan wu mba.
He, in former ages, left all the nations to go in their own ways:
17 Ni kima me, ana hamma ni don wa ba bla kpewa ba to nituma na, niwa a ti kpiwu bi nda nuba mma-lu rhini shulu mba ntonlu wa niye nuyi klo biri bran; shuuni sron mba ni biri mba ngyiri kpukpome.
although he did not leave himself without testimony, while he did them good from heaven, and sent down the rain, and made the fruits to grow in their seasons, and filled their hearts with food and pleasure.
18 Ni lantre bihi me, Bulus mba Barnaba ba mla zu ndji ba megen bubu gon nton ni bawu.
And, by saying these things, they with difficulty prevented the people from offering sacrifice to them.
19 Ama Yahudawa bari wa ba rhini Antioch mba Iconium, ba ye kma tu ndji ba sran ni gyru bre. Ba taa Bulus ni tita nda ngbiwu rju hi ni kogon gbu'a, nda ban ni mren mba ndi a qu ye.
But Jews came hither from Iconium and Antioch, and excited the people against them. And they stoned Paul, and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.
20 Ni kime, niwa mriko ba ka kri kaagon nitu ma, alu kri nda zren ri ni mi gbu'a. Ni vi wa a hu kima, a hi ni Derbe wawu'u mba Barnaba.
And the disciples assembled around him; and he arose, and went into the city. And the next day, he departed from there, with Barnabas; and they came to the city of Derbe.
21 Hu gon wa baka d'bu bla tre ndindi nitu ma, ni mi gbu'a nda mriko gbugbu, ba k'ma ye ni Lystra, ni Iconium mba ni Antioch.
And while they were preaching to the inhabitants of that city, they made many disciples. And turning back, they came to the city Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,
22 Ba si nron mriko ba duba kri ni sron gbangban nda yo ni bawu du ba na k'ma ya gon ni kpa nyme mba ndani tre ndi, “Abi toki duta ri ni ko Irji hu ni nkon iya
confirming the souls of the disciples, and entreating them to persevere in the faith; and they told them, that it was necessary, through much affliction, to enter into the kingdom of God.
23 Niwa ba yo bi ninkon nitu mba, ni ekklisiya ba, nda bre Irji hamma ni rhikpe, ba kaba yo ni wo Bachi wa nituma yi ba kpa nyeme.
And they established for them Elders in each church, while they fasted with them, and prayed, and commended them to our Lord in whom they believed.
24 Mle ba zrenzu ni Pisidia nda ye ri ni Pamphylia.
And when they had travelled over the region of Pisidia they came to Pamphylia.
25 Niwa ba kle bla lantre'a ni Perga, ba grji hi ni Attalia.
And when they had spoken the word of the Lord in the city of Perga, they went down to Attalia.
26 Rhi niki ba zren zu nitu mma ka rini Antioch, ni bubu wa bana nzuba yo ni toh ti Irji wu ndu wa baka kle'u zizan.
And thence they proceeded by sea, and came to Antioch; because from there they had been commended to the grace of the Lord, for that work which they had accomplished.
27 Niwa ba ye ri nimi Antioch, ba yo ekklisiya zi ni bubu riri, nda vubla bawu wawu kpiwa Irji a ka ti niba, mba nitu wa a bwunko wu kpa gbangban ni biwa babi kora'a.
And when they had collected together the whole church, they narrated all that God had wrought with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.
28 Ba kii wu gbron nton ni ba mriko ba,
And they remained there a long time with the disciples.
