1 Kindeno Saulo ne pod siemo jopuonjre mag Ruoth, kochano mar negogi. Nodhi ir jadolo maduongʼ
But Shaul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
2 mokwaye barupe mane nyalo miye teko mar donjo e sinagoke man Damaski, mondo ka oyudo joma luwo Yor Kristo, bed ni gin chwo kata mon, to omakgi otergi Jerusalem kaka joma otwe.
and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Urishlim.
3 Kane oyudo owuotho ka ochiegni chopo Damaski, nopo ka ler moa e polo omenye molwore.
As he traveled, it happened that he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him.
4 Nogore piny, mi owinjo dwol moro kawachone niya, “Saulo, Saulo, isanda nangʼo?”
And he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Shaul, Shaul, why do you persecute me?"
5 Saulo nopenjo niya, “In ngʼa, Ruoth?” Nodwoke niya, “An Yesu ma isando.
And he said, "Who are you, Lord?" And he said, "I am Yeshua, whom you are persecuting.
6 Koro aa malo idhi Damaski kendo ibiro nyisi gima nyaka itim.”
But rise up, and enter into the city, and you will be told what you must do."
7 Jogo mane ni e wuoth gi Saulo nochungʼ kanyo ka dhogi omoko; nikech ne giwinjo dwol to ok gine ngʼato.
The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the sound, but seeing no one.
8 Saulo nochungʼ oa malo, to kane oyawo wengene, to ne ok onyal neno gimoro. Omiyo negimako bade kagitaye gitere Damaski.
Shaul arose from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see anything. They led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.
9 Nobedo muofu kuom ndalo adek, kendo ne ok ochiemo kata madho gimoro.
He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.
10 Damaski kanyo ne nitie japuonjre moro miluongo ni Anania. Ruoth nowuoyo kode e fweny, kaluonge niya, “Anania!” Nodwoko niya, “Antie, Ruoth.”
Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Khananya. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Khananya." And he said, "Look, it's me, Lord."
11 Ruoth nowachone niya, “Wuogi idhi e od Judas, mantiere kama iluongo ni Yo Moriere Tir, mondo ipenjgi ngʼat moro ma ja-Tarso, miluongo ni Saulo nimar olemo kuno.
The Lord said to him, "Arise, and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Yehudah for one named Shaul, a man of Tarsus. For look, he is praying,
12 Noneno ngʼat moro miluongo ni Anania e fweny ka obiro kendo noyieyo lwete kuome mondo ochak onen.”
and in a vision he has seen a man named Khananya coming in, and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight."
13 To Anania nodwoko niya, “Ruoth, asewinjo weche mangʼeny kuom ngʼatno, gi timbene maricho mosebedo kotimo ni jogi maler modak Jerusalem.
But Khananya answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Urishlim.
14 Kendo Damaski bende osebire ka jodolo madongo omiye teko mar mako ji duto maluongo nyingi.”
Here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name."
15 To Ruoth nowachone Anania niya, “Dhiyo! Ngʼatni en gir tichna ma aseyiero mondo oter nyinga e dier joma ok jo-Yahudi ma ok jo-Yahudi kaachiel gi ruodhigi; kendo e dier jo-Israel.
But the Lord said to him, "Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the people of Israyel.
16 Abiro nyise masiche duto monego one nikech nyinga.”
For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name's sake."
17 Eka Anania nodhi e odno modonjo nyaka e iye. Noyieyo lwete kuom Saulo kowachone niya, “Owadwa Saulo, Ruoth, ma en Yesu manyocha ofwenyoreni ka in e yo ibiro ka, oseora iri mondo ichak inen kendo mondo ipongʼ gi Roho Maler.”
Khananya departed, and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, "Brother Shaul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me, that you may receive your sight, and be filled with the Rukha d'Qudsha."
18 Gikanyono gima chalo gi ololo nolwar oa e wenge Saulo mi koro nonyalo neno. Noa malo mi nobatise,
Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was baptized.
19 kendo kane osechiemo matin, to tekone noduogo. Saulo nodak gi jopuonjre Damaski kuom ndalo mogwarore,
He took food and was strengthened. He stayed several days with the disciples who were at Damascus.
20 kendo bangʼ mano nochako yalo Injili e sinagoke, kowacho ni Yesu en Wuod Nyasaye.
Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed Yeshua, that he is the Son of God.
21 Ji duto mane owinje nowuoro ka gipenjore niya, “Donge ma e ngʼat mane sando joma ne luongo Nying Yesu Jerusalem? Donge osebiro ka mana mondo okawgi kaka joma otwe mondo otergi ni Jodolo madongo?”
All who heard him were amazed, and said, "Is not this he who in Urishlim made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief priests."
22 Kata kamano, Saulo nomedo gerore kuom yie kendo nomedo bedo gi teko mangʼeny, kendo twak mane ochiwo konyisogo ni Yesu e Kristo nodhiero jo-Yahudi mane odak Damaski.
But Shaul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Meshikha.
23 Bangʼ ndalo mangʼeny, jo-Yahudi nochano mondo oneg Saulo,
When many days were fulfilled, the Jews conspired together to kill him,
24 to Saulo nofwenyo wachno. Odiechiengʼ gotieno ne gibutone e rangeye mag dala maduongʼ mondo gimake apoya ginege,
but their plot became known to Shaul. They watched the gates both day and night that they might kill him,
25 to jolupne nokawe mokete e okapu, eka gilore piny kokalo e otuchi moro manie kor ohinga mar dala.
but his disciples took him by night, and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
26 Kane obiro Jerusalem, notemo mondo odonji e kanyakla mar jopuonjre, to giduto ne giluore, nikech ne gichich kode ni sa moro pok nolokore adier.
When Shaul had come to Urishlim, he tried to join himself to the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
27 To Barnaba nokawe motere ir joote. Nonyisogi kaka Saulo noseromo gi Ruoth kane oyudo en e wuodhe, kaka Ruoth nosewuoyo kode, kendo kaka Saulo noseyalo gi chir kuom nying Yesu e Damaski.
But Bar-Naba took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Yeshua.
28 Kuom mano, Saulo nodak kodgi, kowuotho ei Jerusalem koni gi koni maonge ngʼama gengʼe, kendo kowuoyo gi chir kuom nying Ruoth.
He was with them coming in and going out in Urishlim, speaking boldly in the name of the Lord.
29 Nowuoyo kendo nogoyo mbaka gi jo-Yahudi moluwo timbe jo-Yunani, to jogo notemo nege.
He spoke and disputed against the Hellenists, but they were seeking to kill him.
30 To kane jowete ofwenyo wachni, ne gigole kanyo mi gidhi kode nyaka Kaisaria, bangʼe giore nyaka Tarso.
When the brothers knew it, they brought him down to Qesarya, and sent him off to Tarsus.
31 Bangʼ lokruok Saulo, kanisa man Judea gi Galili kod Samaria nobedo gi kwe maonge luoro. Roho Maler nokonyogi, mi gibedo motegno kendo kwan joma oyie kuom Kristo nomedore pile. Joma oyie kuom Kristo nodak koluoro Ruoth Nyasaye.
So the church throughout all Yehuda and Galila and Samaria had peace, and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Rukha d'Qudsha.
32 Kane Petro wuotho ei piny koni gi koni, nodhi limo jomaler mane odak Lida.
It happened, as Kipha went throughout all those parts, he came down also to the saints who lived at Lud.
33 Kuno nonwangʼoe ngʼat moro miluongo ni Ainea, mane osebedo kosiko onindo e kitandane kuom higni aboro, ka tuo mar athany onure.
There he found a certain man named Aniyas, who had been bedridden for eight years, because he was paralyzed.
34 Petro nowachone niya, “Ainea, Yesu Kristo osechangi; aa malo iban pieni.” Ainea noa malo mana gisano.
Kipha said to him, "Aniyas, Yeshua Meshikha heals you. Get up and make your bed." Immediately he arose.
35 Ji duto mane odak Lida gi Sharon nonene moyie kuom Ruoth.
All who lived at Lud and in Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.
36 E dala mar Jopa ne nitie japuonjre moro miluongo ni Tabitha (ma dho jo-Yunani luongo bi Dorka tiende ni Nyakech) mane osiko katimo maber ni ji kendo nokonyo joma odhier.
Now there was at Yupi a certain disciple named Tabitha (which when translated, means Dorcas). This woman was full of good works and acts of mercy which she did.
37 E kindeno tuo nogoye mi otho, kendo noluok ringre bangʼe okete e ot man malo ewi gorofa.
It happened in those days that she fell sick, and died. When they had washed her, they placed her in an upper chamber.
38 Lida ne chiegni gi Jopa, omiyo ka jopuonjre nowinjo ni Petro ni kuno, ne giorone ji ariyo, ka gikwaye niya, “Yie ibi irwa piyo ma ok odeko!”
As Lud was near Yupi, the disciples, hearing that Kipha was there, sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to us.
39 Petro nodhi kodgi, kendo kane ochopo to ne gitere nyaka ei ot man malo e gorofa kama ne ringre Tabitha nitie. Mon duto ma chwogi otho mane ni kanyo nochungʼ olwore, ka giywak kendo ginyise lep kandho kod lewni mamoko mane Dorka otwangʼo kapod ongima.
Kipha got up and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper chamber. All the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
40 Petro nogologi oko duto, bangʼe nogoyo chonge piny molamo. Eka nowichore mochomo dhako mothono, kowacho niya, “Tabitha, aa malo!” Dhakono noyawo wengene, kendo kane oneno Petro, to nobet piny.
Kipha put them all out, and kneeled down and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, "Tabitha, get up." She opened her eyes, and when she saw Kipha, she sat up.
41 Petro nomako bade mi okonye chungʼ gi tiende. Bangʼe noluongo jopuonjre kod mon ma chwogi otho mane ni oko mi omiyogi Tabitha kangima.
He gave her his hand, and raised her up. Calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive.
42 Wachni nolandore e Jopa duto, mi ji mangʼeny noyie kuom Ruoth.
And it became known throughout all Yupi, and many believed in the Lord.
43 Petro nomedo dak Jopa e od janyongʼ piende moro miluongo ni Simon kuom kinde mogwarore.
It happened, that he stayed many days in Yupi with one Shimon, a tanner.
