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.

And after the uproar was ceased, Paul having sent for the disciples and exhorted them, took leave of them, and departed for to go into Macedonia.

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

And when he had gone through those parts, and had given them much exhortation, 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 when he had spent three months [there], and a plot was laid against him by the Jews, as he was about to set sail for Syria, he determined 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 there accompanied him as far as Asia Sopater of Beroea, [the son] of Pyrrhus; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.

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

But these had gone before, and were waiting for us at 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 sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we tarried 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 upon the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul discoursed with them, intending to depart on the morrow; and prolonged his speech until midnight.

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

And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where we were gathered together.

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.

And there sat in the window a certain young man named Eutychus, borne down with deep sleep; and as Paul discoursed yet longer, being borne down by his sleep he 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 went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Make ye no ado; for his life 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 when he was gone up, and had broken the bread, and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.

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

And they brought the lad alive, and were not a little comforted.

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, going before to the ship, set sail for Assos, there intending to take in Paul: for so had he appointed, intending himself to go by land.

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, we took him in, and 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 sailing from thence, we came the following day over against Chios; and the next day we touched at Samos; and the day after we came to 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 had determined to sail past Ephesus, that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.

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

And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called to him 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 were come to him, he said unto them, Ye yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, after what manner 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 lowliness of mind, and with tears, and with trials which befell me by 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 that I shrank not from declaring unto you anything that was profitable, and teaching 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.

testifying 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 bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:

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.

save that the Holy Ghost testifieth unto me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide 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 hold not my life of any account, as dear unto myself, so that I may accomplish my course, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify 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 ye all, among whom I went about preaching 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.

Wherefore I testify unto you this day, 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 shrank not from declaring unto you the whole 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 unto yourselves, and to all the flock, in the which the Holy Ghost hath made you bishops, to feed the church of God, which he purchased 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 departing grievous wolves shall enter in among 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 from among your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the 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.

Wherefore watch ye, remembering that by the space of three years I ceased not to admonish every one night and day 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 to the word of his grace, which is able to build [you] up, and to give [you] the inheritance among all them that are sanctified.

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

I coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.

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.

Ye yourselves know that these hands ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were 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,”

In all things I gave you an example, how that so labouring ye ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself 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 when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.

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

And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul’s neck, and kissed him,

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.

Sorrowing most of all for the word which he had spoken, that they should behold his face no more. And they brought him on his way unto the ship.
