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 summoned the disciples, said goodbye, and departed to go to Macedonia.

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

After going through those regions and encouraging the believers with many words, he came to 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.

where he stayed for three months. As he was about to set sail for Syria, a plot was made against him by the Jews, so the decision was made to return by way of 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.

Sopater of Berea accompanied him as far as Asia, and so did Aristarchus and Secundus of Thessalonica, Gaius of Derbe, Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia.

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

These men went on ahead and waited for 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.

But we sailed from Philippi after the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and five days later we came to them at Troas, where we stayed for 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.

On the first day of the week, as the disciples were gathered together to break bread, Paul addressed them, intending to depart the next day, and he prolonged his message until midnight.

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

Now there were many lamps in the upper room 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 a young man named Eutychus, who was sitting on the window sill, sank into a deep sleep while Paul continued speaking for a long time. Overcome by sleep, he fell down from the third story and was picked 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.”

But Paul went down and threw himself on the young man. Taking him in his arms, he said, “Do not be alarmed, 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.

Then Paul went back upstairs, and after he had broken bread and eaten, he conversed with the disciples for a long time, until dawn; that was how he departed.

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

And they brought the boy home alive and were comforted beyond measure.

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.

Then we went to the ship and set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul on board there, for that is what he had arranged, since he himself intended to go by land.

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

When he met us in Assos, we took him on board and went 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.

We set sail from there and arrived off Chios on the following day. The next day we reached Samos and stayed in Trogyllium, and the day after that 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 decided to sail past Ephesus so as not to spend time in Asia, because he was hurrying to arrive in Jerusalem, if possible, by the day of Pentecost.

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

From Miletus Paul sent to Ephesus and 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.

When they came to him, he said to them, “You yourselves know how I lived the whole time I was with you, from the day I first set foot in Asia,

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 with many tears and trials, which came upon me because of 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,

You know that I did not hold back from declaring to you anything that was beneficial, and from teaching you in public 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 to both Jews and Greeks about repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus.

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

And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, compelled by the Spirit, not knowing what will happen to 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.

except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city that imprisonment and afflictions 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 take no account of these things, nor do I regard my life as precious to myself, if only I may complete my course with joy and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify 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 none of you among whom I have gone about preaching the kingdom of God will see my face again.

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

Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of you all.

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

For I have not held back from declaring to 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

So keep watch over yourselves and over the entire flock. The Holy Spirit has appointed you as their overseers, to shepherd the church of our Lord and God, which he obtained 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.

For I know that after my departure fierce wolves will 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.

Even from your own number men will rise up, speaking perverse things to draw the disciples away 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.

Therefore be watchful, remembering that, night and day, for three years I did not stop admonishing each one of 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, brothers, I entrust you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all who are sanctified.

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

I coveted no one's silver, gold, or clothing.

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 of mine ministered to my own needs and to the needs of those who 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 have shown you that we must labor in this way and help those who are weak, remembering what the Lord Jesus 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.

After saying these things, Paul knelt down and prayed with them all.

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

There was much weeping among them all, and they threw their arms around 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.

being especially grieved over his statement that they would see his face no more. Then they accompanied him to the ship.
