Caeltueih 20

1 Olpungnah a paa van neh hnukbang rhoek te Paul loh a tah tih a hloep. A toidal tih Makedonia ah caeh hamla suntla.

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

2 Te rhoek pingpang a hil vaengah khaw amih te olka neh muep a thaphoh phoeiah Greek la pawk.

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

3 Hla thum a om phoeiah Syria la kat ham cai dae Judah rhoek loh anih te mangtaengnah a khueh dongah Makedonia longah bal ham lungbuei om.

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 Te vaengah anih te Berea kah Purrhu capa Sopataru, Thesaalonika kah Aristarkhu neh Sekundu, Derbi kah Kaiyu neh Thimothy, Asia kah Tukhiko neh Trophimu loh a puei uh.

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 Te rhoek loh lamhma uh tih Troas ah kaimih n'rhing uh.

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

6 Kaimih tah vaidamding khohnin phoeiah Philipi lamkah ka kat uh tih, hnin nga khuiah Troas kah amih taengla ka pawk uh. Te ah te hnin rhih ka om uh.

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 Te vaengkah Sabbath a voeikhat dongah tah kaimih taengkah aka tingtun rhoek ham Paul loh vaidam a aeh pah tih amih te a thuingong puei. A vuen ah bal ham a cai dongah ihdulh duela olka te a yueng.

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 Te vaengah ka tingtun nah imhman ah hmaiim muep om.

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

9 Te vaengah cadong pakhat, a ming ah Eutukhu tah bangbuet ah ngol. Paul kah a thui te a sen dongah a ih te muelh rhoi. Ih a rhoi vaengah imhman boengthum lamkah tla thuk tih a duek la a phoel uh.

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 Paul khaw suntla tih anih te a bakop thil tih a sambai phoeiah, “Sarhingrhup la om uh boeh. A khuiah a hinglu om pueng,” a ti nah.

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

11 A yoeng hang phoeiah vaidam te a aeh pah tih yulh a ten uh. Te phoeiah mincang duela a thui tih khoe uh.

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

12 Tedae cadong te a hing la a khuen uh vaengkah a ngaimong uh te a phoeng mai moenih.

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

13 Kaimih tah Asso la kat ham sangpho taengla ka lamhma uh. Te lamkah tah Paul te loh ham cai uh coeng. Amah khaw lan hamla a cai tangtae la a om coeng dongah a uen van coeng.

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 Te dongah Asso ah ka humcui uh vaengah anih te ka loh uh tih Mitulene la ka pawk uh.

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

15 Te lamloh a vuen ah ka kat uh tih Khios rhalvangan ka pha uh. A vuen bal ah Samos te ka pha uh tih hnin at a om phoeiah Miletu la ka pawk uh.

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 Paul tah Asia ah yulh a koe ham a om pawt dongah Ephisa te poeng ham mulmet uh. Pentekos hnin ah amah om thai atah tila Jerusalem pha ham te a rhingda.

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 Te vaengah hlangboel kah a ham rhoek te Miletu lamloh Ephisa la a tah tih a khue.

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

18 Te dongah a taengla ha pawk uh vaengah amih te, “Asia ah ka cawt khohnin lamhma lamloh ka om tue khuiah nangmih neh metla ka om khaw na ming uh.

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 Tlayaenah, mikphi boeih neh Boeipa sal ka bi vaengah he Judah rhoek kah a mangtaengnah loh kai taengah noemcainah a thoeng sak.

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

20 Nangmih taengah puen ham pawt tih im takuem ah langya la nangmih thuituen ham tah aka rhoei rhoek taengah khaw ka tonga moenih.

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 Pathen taengah yutnah neh mamih Boeipa Jesuh ah tangnah khueh ham te Judah rhoek neh Greek rhoek taengah khaw ka laipai coeng.

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

22 Tedae Jerusalem la caeh ham ni Mueihla loh kai m'pin coeng he. Te ah te kai taengah aka thoeng ham khaw ka ming pawh.

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

23 Tedae hloong neh phacipphabaem loh kai n'naeh thil te Mueihla Cim loh kai ham kho takuem ah laipai tih a thui.

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

24 Pathen kah lungvatnah olthangthen te laipai puei tih, Boeipa Jesuh taengkah ka dang bibi neh ka hmatoeng khah hamla ka hinglu lungthen pataeng ol hong lam ni ka khueh coeng.

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 Ram te hoe ham ka hil he a khuiah nangmih loh kai maelhmai boeih na hmu uh voel mahpawh tila ka ming ngawn coeng he.

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 Te dongah hlang boeih kah a thii lamloh a caih la ka om te tihnin khohnin ah nangmih ham ka laipai coeng.

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

27 Pathen kah mangtaengnah te nangmih taengah boeih ka thui mahnim? Te dongah ka tonga moenih.

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

28 Namamih neh boiva boeih te khaw ngaithuen uh. Te khuiah nangmih tah Pathen kah hlangboel, a thii neh a kutloh te dawndah ham Mueihla Cim loh hiphoelkung la n'khueh coeng.

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 Ka caehnah hnukah nangmih taengla uithang aka tlung te ha kun vetih boiva khaw hlun mahpawh tila ka ming.

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

30 Te vaengah nangmih khui lamkah namah rhoek ha phoe ni. Hnukbang rhoek te amah hnukla mawt ham paimaelh ol a thui ni.

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

31 Te dongah hak uh laeh. Kum thum khuiah, khoyin khothaih mikphi neh toeng mueh la pakhat rhip kan rhalrhing sak te poek uh.

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

32 A lungvatnah olka dongah hlinsai thai ham neh a ciim tangtae rhoek boeih khuiah rho phaeng ham khaw Pathen taengah nangmih kan tloeng coeng he.

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 Tangka khaw, sui khaw, pueinak khaw ka nai moenih.

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

34 Kamah neh ka taengkah aka om rhoek kah a ngoengaih dongah ka kut loh a bi te khaw na ming uh.

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

35 Tattloel rhoek bomcen ham a kuek dongah ka thakthae te khaw nangmih taengah boeih kan tueng coeng. Te dongah Boeipa Jesuh amah loh, “N'dang lakah m'paek dongah yoethen om ngai,” a ti olka te poek ham om.

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 He he a thui phoeiah a khuklu a cungkueng tih amih boeih te a thangthui puei.

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

37 Te vaengkah hlang boeih te a rhah neh boeih om uh. Paul kah a rhawn te a kop thil uh tih a mok uh.

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

38 Olpuei la a mikhmai hmuh ham om voel mahpawh tila a thui ol loh hlang boeih a yuek. Te phoeiah anih te sangpho taengla a thak uh.

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.
