Ndu Manzaniba 20

1 Niwa gro wu a kle'a, Bulus a ton ba ka yo mri ko bi hu'a nda nron ba du ba ki gbangban, nda tre ndi duba mla ki nda kuunko hi ni Macedonia.

After the uproar ceased, Paul, having sent for the disciples and exhorted them, bidding them adieu, departed to go into Macedonia.

2 Niwa a zren zu ni gbungblu bi koki nda gbre ba ni lantre gbugbuwu, a ye rini Greece.

And having come through those regions, and exhorted them with much speaking, he came into Greece;

3 Hu gon kima a son ti wha tre niki. Yahudawa ba ba mla nkon meme ti nitu ma, niwa a ta dran hun koma hi ni Syria; nitu ki a kma sran ka zu ni Macedonia.

and having remained three months, a plot rising against him from the Jews, when about to sail for Syria, he was of a mind to return through Macedonia.

4 Kpan zren ma ba wa baka rini Asia, bana sopater ivren Pyrrhus wa a rhini Berea, Aristakus mba Sekondus, hamba bana bi Tasalonika wa ba kpanyime, Gaius wu Derbe, Timoti, mba Tychicus mba Trophimus wa a rhi ni Asia.

And Sopater the (son) of Pyrrhus, the Berean, and Aristarchus, the Thessalonian, and Secundus; and Gaius the Derbean, and Timothy; and Tychicus and Trophimus the Asiatics, accompanied him;

5 Ndji biyi bana guchi hi nitawu nda ka sia gbenta ni Troas.

and these having gone in advance, awaited us in Troas;

6 Ki dran rhuni Philippi niwa ivi bi bredi wa ana fuulu, a kle, mba ni vi u ton ki ye tsra niba ni Troas. Niki ki son u vi tangban.

and we, after the days of unleaven bread, sailed from Philippi, and came to them into Troas within five days; where we spent seven days.

7 Ni vi mumla u Sati ki, niwa kina zontu niki nzi bredi, Bulus a tre ni biwa ba kpanyime'a. A ta son don ba ni viwu hu kima, nitu ki a tre gbron nkon hi ni tsutsuchu.

And on the first of the Sabbaths we being assembled to break bread, Paul spoke to them, being about to depart the following day, and continued his discourse till midnight:

8 Ilu fitila gbugbuu bana he ni tra u koshu, bubu wa kina zontu ki.

and there were many lamps in the upper room, where we were assembled.

9 Ni windo'a, vren nze ri ni nde Eutychus a son, e inna a kri koonvu. Niwa bulus a tre la gbron nkon nha, vren nze yi, wa a risi kruna, a kurjoku rjini tuko u tra i baka baun kmomu.

Paul speaking more prolixly, there was a certain young man, Eutychus by name, sitting in the window, being borne down with deep sleep, completely relaxed by sleep, fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead.

10 Bulus a grji hi, kukru tsra kpama nituma nda maanji ye ni kpama. Mle nda tre, “Du sron mbi na ti meme zan toyi na, a he ni sisren.”

And Paul, having come down, fell on him, and taking him in his arms said, Fear not; for his soul is in him:

11 Niki a kma hon hi ni tra u koshu'a nda ka nzi bredi tan. Hu gon wa ala si tre ni ba wu gbro nton ka tsra ni bwu mble, a rju kaba don.

and having come up, and broken the bread, and eaten, and talking a long time, until daydawn, thus he departed.

12 Ba nji vren nze'a kma ye ni sisren ma e sron mba a kusi.

And they led up the boy alive, and were comforted exceedingly.

13 Kita ngame ki zren guchi ni Bulus nitu jirgi ma, ki dran hi ni Assos, bubu wa kina banzi ki ban Bulus yonji nita. Ana toki me wawu kima ana son ti, nitu ana ya ndi ani hu nkon u meme hi.

But we, having come in advance to the ship, embarked for Assos, thence being about to take up Paul, for he had so commanded us, himself being about to go on foot.

14 Niwa a zontu nita ni Assos, ki baun yo ni mi jirgi'a ni hi ni Mitylene.

And when he met us at Assos, taking him up, we came to Mitylene.

15 Niki ki dran rhini kima ka ri ni vi wa aka hua, ni bubu wa ata ya nklan meme wu Chios. Ni vi wa ala hu'a, kika yo za ni nklan meme wu Samos, e vi wa aka hu kima, ki ye ri ni kikle gbu Miletus.

And thence having sailed away on the following day we arrived opposite Chios; and on the following day we touched at Samos, and on the next day we came into Miletus.

16 Nitu Bulus ana banzi ndi ani dran vu Ephesus yba, nitu du wawu na wo nton ni Asia na; a ta sima hi ri ni Urushelima nitu hi tsra ni vi Pentecost, anita bi tiwu toki.

For Paul decided to sail by Ephesus, in order that it might not be necessary for him to spend the time in Asia: for he was hastening, if it might be possible for him to be in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.

17 Rjini Miletus a ton ndji hi ni Ephesus duba ka yo bi ninkon ekklisiya ye wu.

And having sent from Miletus into Ephesus, he called for the elders of the church.

18 Niwa ba ye'a, a hla bawu ndi, “Bi yi kimbi bito, rhini vi mumla wa mi yo za ni Asia, niwa chachu mi zi wunton niyi.

And when they came to him, he said to them, You know, that from the first day from which I came unto Asia, how I was with you all the time,

19 Mi zi ti ndu Bachi hama ni nzutu mba ni Mashishi, mba ni tsra iya wa ye ni me nitu zon nyu meme wu Yahudawa ba.

serving the Lord with all humility, and tears, and temptations, which came upon me through the plots of the Jews:

20 Bito nitu wa mi na kamu ni dbu bla ni yiwu ko ngye wa ani zoyi na, mba wa mi tsro yi ni shishi ndji wawu mba huyi niko niko,

how I omitted nothing of those things which are profitable, that I should not declare unto you and teach you publicly and from house to house,

21 ni ni vu ni nran ni Yahudawa baba bi Greek nitu kma sron hi ni Irji mba kri ni gbangban sron ni Bachi mbu Yesu.

witnessing both to Jews, and to Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

22 Zizan ya, mi si hi ni Urushelima, ni gbron Ruhu, nina to kpe wa ani ti nimu niki na,

And now, behold, I go to Jerusalem bound in spirit, not knowing the things which shall come upon me in it:

23 hamma wa Ruhu Tsatsra a bwu bla nimu ndi ni gbu kankan wa mi ria, wlo cbo wu lo mba iya ni gben me.

except that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesses to me, saying that bonds and tribulations await me.

24 E me mina ban kpa ivri sisren mu to hi kpe wu tumu na, nitu du mi kle itsu mba ndu wa mi kpa rjini Bachi Yesu, ni du mi bwu nran tre ndindi wa Irji nme wo kpata hama duta ki han kpe.

But I consider my life worthy of no consideration to myself, so as to finish my course, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to bear testimony to the gospel of the grace of God.

25 Zizan ya, Mito ndi wawu mbi, wa nimi mbi mi zren si dbu hla nitu ikoson Irji, bina la to shishi mu na.

And now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I came preaching the gospel of the kingdom, shall see my face no more.

26 Nitu kima, mi bwu ni bla yiwu vi wu luwa iyi ndrjo na he ni tumu na.

Therefore I witness to you this clay, that I am pure from the blood of all men;

27 Nitu mina ka kpe don ni dbu bla wawu kpe wa Irji ni son niyi na.

for I did not shrink to declare unto you all the counsel of God.

28 Nitu kima, bika mla zren ni kpambi, mba ni ba wawu ntma wa Ruhu Tsatsra a yoyi du yi yaba niwu'a. Mla zren ni krju ekklisiya Irji, wa a le ba ni iyi ma. / Nitu du he ndi / ni iyi ma / nha vunvu bi sen bari ba yo ndi / ni iyi wu vren ma

Take heed to yourselves, and all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost has placed you shepherds, to shepherdise the church of God, which He bought with His own blood.

29 Mi toh ndi, mita hi kpamu, meme yawhu bari ni mi mbi ba ye nda na kpa ntma ba chuwo na.

I know, that after my departure grievous wolves will rise up against you, not sparing the flock;

30 Mi to ndi nimi mbi me, ndji bari ba nzulu nda tre kpe bi gbran rhen nitu du ba gbron mriko bihu bari hi ni kpan mba.

and men from you yourselves will rise up, speaking perverse things, in order to lead away disciples after them.

31 Nitu ki bika mla kri. Bika ti mren ndi wu se tra mina don me ni nron yi yiyyri mbi ni mashishi ni chu mba ni irhi.

Watch therefore, remembering, that three years night and day I ceased not admonishing you with tears.

32 Zizan mi yoyi ni wo Irji mba ni lan tre u wa a kpata, wandi ani to me yi nda nuyi gado nimi biwa ba ngla ba ti tsatsra'a.

And now I commend you to God and the word of His grace, who is able to edify you, and give you an inheritance among all the sanctified.

33 Mina ti ngu yo sron nitu azurfa, zinariya ko nklon ndrjo na.

I have not sought the silver, or gold, or raiment of any one;

34 Biyi me bi to ndi iwo mu biyi ba tindu ne kpiwa mi son mba kpison wu bi wa ba he ni me'a.

you yourselves know, that these hands did minister to my necessities, and those along with me.

35 Ni kpi wawuu, mi bwu nkon tsro yi nitu wa bi zo bi wa bana he ni gbengblen na, ni tindu, mba niwa bi timre ni lantre Bachi Yesu, lan tre wa wawu kima a tre: A zan bi lulu du hu nu ni du hu kpa,”

I have shown you all things, that it so behooveth you laboring to assist the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.

36 Hu gon tre ma ni nkon yi, a kukwu mgbarju nda bre Irji ni ba wawu mba.

And having said these things, putting down his knees along with them all, he prayed.

37 Ba kuuyi bran nda mankpa Bulus nji nda chiwu bi bi wu sron nyime.

And the weeping of all was great, and falling on the neck of Paul, they continued to kiss him copiously,

38 Sron mba a ti meme zan nitu wa a tre ndi bana la to shishima ngana. Mle ba huu ka yo ni nkon ni jirgi ma'a.

being especially grieved at the word which he had spoken, that they were about to see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.
