Cei 11
1 Ceityihkhqi ingkaw Juda qam pum awh ak awm koeinaakhqi ing Gentelkhqi ingawm Khawsak awi do hawh lawt uhy tice za uhy.
Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the non-Jewish people had also received the word of God.
2 Cedawngawh Piter ce Jerusalem na a ceh awh, chahhui qeet ak cangnaak thlangkhqi ing coet uhy,
When Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,
3 “Chahhui amak qeet thlangkhqi venna cet nawh a awk a ai,” tina uhy.
saying, "You went in to uncircumcised men, and ate with them."
4 Piter ing cawhkaw ik-oeih akawng ce cekkhqi venawh ak ceet cana kqawncaih pek khqi hy.
But Peter began, and explained to them in order, saying,
5 Joppa khaw awh awm nyng saw kak cykcah huiawh, huhsaknaak ce hu nyng. Hi ak bau soeih amyihna ak awm a kil pupthli ak law ik-oeih pynoet ce, kai ka awmnaak hun awh khan nakawng tla law hy.
"I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.
6 Ce ak khui ce ka toek awh dek awhkaw a khaw pupthli ak awm qamsa soepkep ingkaw ak cawlh ak tat qamsakhqi khan nakaw phakhqi ce hu nyng.
When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, crawling creatures, and birds of the sky.
7 Cawh awi ing ka venawh, ‘Piter, tho lah. Him nawhtaw ai,’ ni tina hy.
I also heard a voice saying to me, 'Rise, Peter, kill and eat.'
8 Kai ing, “Am ai hly nyng! Amak ciim caih ingkaw tuih ak cu ikawm kam khak khuiawh am lut man hy,” tina nyng.
But I said, 'Not so, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.'
9 Khawk khan nakaw awi ing a hih voeinaak awh, ‘Khawsa ing a ciim sak ce, ce nang ing am ciim hy koeh ti,’ ni tina hy.
But a voice answered the second time out of heaven, 'What God has cleansed, do not call unclean.'
10 Cemyihna thum voei dy a awm coengawh, cawhkaw ik-oeih ce khan na lo law tlaih hy.
This was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.
11 Cawhce Kaiserea khaw awhkawng a tyih law thlang pakthum ce ka awmnaak im awhkaw vawng chawmkeng awh dyi uhy.
And look, immediately three men stood before the house where we were, having been sent from Caesarea to me.
12 Ciim Myihla ing kawhaa a taak kaana cekkhqi hu awh bat aham kqawn hy. Vawhkaw koeinaakhqi thlang kquk awm law lawt uhy. Cekcoengawh amik khy law sakkung thlang a im awh ce lut unyng.
The Spirit told me to go with them, without discriminating. These six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house.
13 Ce ak thlang a im awh khan ceityih dang pe nawh, ‘Joppa khaw awh Piter tinawh amik khy Simon ce khy sak.
He told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, and saying to him, 'Send to Joppa, and get Simon, whose surname is Peter,
14 Anih ing namah ingkaw na ipkhuikaw boeih thlang na na awmnaak hly kawi awithang ce haw law bit kaw’ a tinaak awi ce kaimih a venawh kqawn law hy.
who will speak to you words by which you will be saved, you and all your house.'
15 Cawh, awi kak kqawn cyk awhkawng, Ciim Myihla nik khanawh a pha law cyk awhkaw amyihna amik khanawh pha law hy.
As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as on us at the beginning.
16 Cawh Bawipa ing, ‘Johan ing tui ing baptisma ce ni pek khqi hlai hy, nangmih ingtaw Ciim Myihla baptisma hu kawm uk ti,’ a tice poek lawt nyng.
I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, 'John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit.'
17 Bawipa ing ningnih ani peek khqi lawt amyihna Bawipa Jesu Khrih ak cangnaak cekkhqi a venawh awm cawhkaw kutdo ce a peek awhtaw, kai ve a u na nu ka awm nawh Khawsa ce oelh aham kak poek kaw? tinak khqi hy.
If then God gave to them the same gift as us, when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?"
18 Ce ak awi ce a ming zaak awh coetnaak taak voel kaana Khawsa ce kyihcah uhy, “Cawhtaw Khawsa ing Gentelkhqi awm hqingnaak huh aham zut sak khqi hawh lawt hy ce,” ti uhy.
When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, "Then God has also granted to the non-Jews repentance to life."
19 Stephen thekhanaak awhkawng amik pek qukhqi ce Phonicia, Kupra ingkaw Antiok khawkhqi na cet unawh Juda thlangkhqi ven doeng awh awithang leek ce kqawn pe uhy.
They therefore who were scattered abroad by the oppression that arose about Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except to Jews only.
20 Cehlai a mingmih anglakawhkaw Kupra ingkaw Cyqene khaw awhkawng ak law thlang vang tloek ce Antiok khaw na cet unawh Greek thlangkhqi venawh awm Bawipa Jesu ak awithang ce kqawn pe uhy.
But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Greeks, proclaiming the good news of the Lord Jesus.
21 Bawipa a kut ce a mingmih a venawh a awm dawngawh, thlang khawzah ing cangna unawh Bawipa benna hawi uhy.
The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
22 Amingmih ak awithang ce Jerusalem awh ak awm thlangboelkhqi ang haa awh awithang na za uhy. Cedawngawh Barnaba ce Antiok khaw dy na tyi uhy.
And the report concerning them was heard by the church in Jerusalem, so they sent Barnabas to Antioch,
23 Anih ce pha nawh Khawsam qeennaak ce a huh awh, kawlung boeih ing ak cak cana Bawipa awh awm poe aham zeel doena cekkhqi ce tha pek khqi hy.
who, when he had come, and had seen the grace of God, was glad. He exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they should remain true to the Lord.
24 Barnaba taw thlak leek na awm nawh, Ciim Myihla ingkaw cangnaak ing ak be thlang na awm hy. Cedawngawh thlang khawzah ce Bawipa venna sawi khqi hy.
For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith, and many people were added to the Lord.
25 Cekcoengawh Saul sui aham Barnaba ce Tarsu khaw na cet hy,
Barnabas went out to Tarsus to look for Saul.
26 anih ce a huh awh, Antiok khaw na ce law pyi hy. Cedawngawh kum oet khui Barnaba ingkaw Saul ing thlangboel khuiawh thlang khawzah ce cawngpyi hy nih. Hubatkhqi ce Antiok khawawh lammacyk na “Khrihcakhqi” tinawh khy uhy.
When he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. It happened, that for a whole year they were gathered together with the church, and taught many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
27 Ce tloek awh tawngha thlang u tloek nu Jerusalem awhkawng Antiok khawna cet uhy.
Now in these days, prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28 Cekkhqik khuiawh kaw Agaba ak mingnaak thlang pynoet ce dyi nawh Myihla simsaknaak ing Rom uknaak qam boeih awh khawkhanaak pha law kaw, tinawh khypyi hy. (Cawhkaw khawkhanaak ce Klaudia a boei vengawh pha hy.)
One of them named Agabus stood up, and indicated by the Spirit that there should be a great famine all over the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius.
29 Hubatkhqi ing a mimah a mina khoek awh Judah awh ak awm koeinaakhqi ce pyi khqi aham kqawn uhy.
As any of the disciples had plenty, each determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea;
30 Cawhkaw pyinaak kutdo ce a hqamcakhqi ing Barnaba ingkaw Saul a kut awh pat pe uhy.
which they also did, sending it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
