Ndu Manzaniba 28

1 Niwa ba nji ta ye ri pian me, ki wo ndi ba yo nklan meme ki ndi Malta.

And after being saved, then they learned that the island was called Malta.

2 Indji bi son niki ba kpata nisron ndindi nda mulu nitawu duta mbru kpa nitu ilu chachu mba isi wa a he niki.

And the foreigners presented uncommon kindness to us, for, having kindled a fire, they received us all because of the present rain, and because of the cold.

3 Niwa Bulus a vu fla kunkron zontu zi nda vu sa nitu lua, iwan a rju nitu gbaji lua nda ye nye wu ni wo.

And Paul having gathered a quantity of sticks, and having placed them on the fire, a viper having come out from the heat, it fastened on his hand.

4 Niwa indji bi bubuki ba to nma si klo ni woma, ba tre ni kpamba, “Indji yi, wu njanji, ani wuu ndji niwa a nawo rjini kpan trema, i gaatre na kpanyme ndi du son ni sisren na.”

And when the foreigners saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to each other, Certainly this man is a murderer, whom, though saved from the sea, Justice did not allow to live.

5 I niki a kpon nma yo nimi lu'a hama ni du kpe tiwu.

Indeed therefore having shaken off the creature into the fire, he experienced nothing harmful.

6 Ba sia gben ndi ani hwukpa ni lilo ko ka lu kurjoku khwu. U niwa ba ki si yau wu gbron nton nda to ndi ikpe meme na ti'una, ba kma sron mba sran nda tre ndi a hi Irji.

But they expected he was going to swell up, or suddenly fall down dead, but when they were long expecting, and seeing nothing amiss happening to him, thinking differently, they declared him to be a god.

7 Zizan, whiniki, bubu meme bari a he wa bana bi chu wu nklan memeki, igu wa ba yondi Publius. A kpa ta bi ni wo ha, nda nuba kpi wa ba son wu vi tra.

Now among the things around that place were fields of the chief of the island, named Publius, who, having received us kindly, lodged us three days.

8 A he niki, iti Publius a kru lilo lokpa mba atini. Niwa Bulus a hi niwu, a bre, yowo ma nitu ma, nda nuu si kpama.

And it came about for the father of Publius to be laid down, gripped by fever and dysentery, to whom Paul, having entered in, and having prayed, having laid his hands on him, healed him.

9 Hu kpe yi wa a ye he a, mbru indji bi nklan meme ki ba wa basia lo, ba ngame nda ye kpa sikpa mba.

Therefore when this happened, the others also who had infirmities on the island came and were healed,

10 Indji ba ngame ba nzu hon gbugbuwu. Niwa kita mla ku nkon dran, ba nuta kpi wa ki son a.

who also honored us with many honorariums. And while putting out to sea, they furnished the things for our necessities.

11 Niwa wha tre a ka hi, ki dran ni jirgi mma wa a kru ga ni nklan meme ki, jirgi mma wu Alexandria, ni nha to “hlan-ha irji” ni kbu shishima.

And after three months we set out in a ship that wintered at the island, an Alexandrian with The Twin Brothers emblem.

12 Ka huki, ki ye grji ki ni gbu Sirakus, ki kii niki wu vi tra.

And after being brought down to Syracuse, we remained there three days,

13 Rji niki ki dran ka ri ni mi gbu u Rhegium. Ivi rhi ka hi kikle ngyungyu a rju rji ni kosan, u ni mi vi hari ki ye rhi ni mi gbu u Puteoli.

from where having made a circuit, we arrived at Rhegium. And after one day, wind from the south having developed, we came a second day to Puteoli,

14 Niki, ki to mri vayi bari i ba yo ta duta ye son niba wu vi tangban. Ni nkon kii ki ye ri ni Roma.

where, having found brothers, we were invited to stay with them seven days. And so we went toward Rome.

15 Rji niki, wa mri vayi ba ba wo tre nitu mbu, baye zontu nita gbagban mu to rhini cucu Abiyas mba iti tra bru tra. Niwa Bulus a to mri vayi ba, a ngyiri ni Irji nda ti gbengblen.

And from there the brothers, who heard these things about us, came for a meeting with us as far as Appius Forum and The Three Taverns, whom, when Paul saw, having expressed thanks to God, he took courage.

16 Niwa ki rini mi Roma, ba kpanyme ni Bulus du son ni nklenma mba soja wa ata kri yau.

And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the commandant, but Paul was allowed to dwell by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

17 Niki a ye he wa ivi tra aka hi, Bulus a yo indji wa bana bi ninkon Yahudawa zi. Niwa ba ye zontu ki, a tre niba ndi “Mri vayi, hama ndi mina ti kpe meme nitu indji ko ka nkon son ba titimbu, ba vu me lo nu ba tro rjini Urushelima ye ri ni wo bi Roma.

And it came to pass after three days, for Paul to call together those who were the principle men of the Jews. And when they came together, he said to them, Men, brothers, I, having done nothing against the people, or the paternal customs, I was delivered a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

18 Hugon myeme tre, ba ta son chume chuwo, nitu bana to kpe wa ba han hukunchi kwu ni tu tre mu.

who, after examining me, wanted to release me, because there was not one cause of death in me.

19 I niwa Yahudawa ba tre hu nkon wa bana ta son na, a du me bre to Kaisar, ana nitu mi sia nji nhakpe nitu bi meme mu na.

But when the Jews spoke against it, I was compelled to appeal Caesar, not as having anything to accuse my nation.

20 Nitu kima yi, mi wa tou ni tre niwu, nitu yo sron wa Israila ba he niwu'a du me he nimi lo sarka hi.”

Because of this reason therefore I summoned you to see and to speak with me, for because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.

21 Mle, ba tre niwu ndi, 'Kina kpa vunvu nha rjini Judiya nitume na, i vayi ri mena ye njitre, koka trekpe meme nitume na.

And they said to him, We neither received letters from Judea about thee, nor did any of the brothers who came report or speak anything bad about thee.

22 Ama kison wo rjini wu mren me nitu igrji yi, nitu ki to ndi ba tre meme kaagon nitu ma.”

But we think it worthy to hear from thee what thou think. For indeed about this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.

23 Niwa ba yo vi niwu, indji gbugbuwu bari ba ye niwu, ni bubu son ma. A bhwu hla tu trea ni bawu, nda ni vubla nitu ikoson Irji. A ta son gbron sron mba yo rjini du Musa mba rjini anabawa ba, rjini mble kari ni yalu.

And having appointed a day for him, more came to him into his lodging, to whom he expounded, solemnly testifying the kingdom of God, and persuading them of the things about Jesus, both from the law of Moses and the prophets, from morning until evening.

24 Bari ba kpanyme ni kpiwa ki tre ni tumba, i bari bana kpanyme na.

And some were convinced by the things that were spoken, and some disbelieved.

25 Niwa bana kpany'me ni kpamba na, ba hi kpamba hu wa Bulus a tre lan tre riri yi. “Ibrji Tsatsra a tre bi, zuni nyu anabawa baba manzani ba hi ni ba titimbi.

And being discord among each other, they departed after Paul spoke one thing, saying, Well spoke the Holy Spirit through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

26 A tre ndi, hi ni indji biyi ndi hi hla ndi, “Ni si wo, bi wo, i bina to tuma na; mba nisi to bi to, i bina to nkon ma na.

saying, Go thou to this people, and say, Hearing ye will hear, and will, no, not understand, and seeing ye will see, and will, no, not perceive.

27 Nitu dri indji biyi a ti bwu, mba ni iton mba, bana mla wo na, mba ba kaa shishi mba hama ki ba ma to ni shishi mba, nda wo ni iton mba, nda to tuma ni dri mba nda kma sran ngari, i mi nuba sikpa.'”

For this people's heart was made fat, and they hear heavily with the ears. And they shut their eyes, lest they may perceive with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and should turn, and I would heal them.

28 Nitu kima, bika to ndi kpachuwo Irji yi, ba truu hini bikora ba, i ba wo'u.”

Be it known to you therefore, that the salvation of God was sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear.

29 Ndu Manzani, 28:29 - tre vunvu bari wu sen ba heni nklan 29: / Niwa a tre kpi biyi, Yahudawa ba ba hi kpamba. Ba sia he ni kikle sen nyu ni kpamba. /

And when he said these things, the Jews departed, having much disputing among themselves.

30 Bulus a son wu se ha wawu ni kowa a han nklen ki kima, nda ta kpa ni wo ha, biwa ba ye niwu'a.

And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired lodging. And he received all who came in to him,

31 A sia dbu bla nitu ikoson Irji nda ta tsro ikpi nitu Bachi Yesu Kristi ni gbengblen sron hama ni ndrjo ata zuu.

preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching the things about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.
