Acts 13
1 Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen (who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch), and Saul.
Antioch Houbung sunga Themgao le mihil ho chu, Barnabas, Simeon (mivompa), Lucius (Cyrene mi), Manaen (Herod Antipas golpa), chule Saul ahiuve.
2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”
Chuin Nikhat amaho hin an ngola Pathen ahoukhom pet-un Lhagao Theng in amaho koma chun “Barnabas le Saul chu kakouna natong dingin lhandoh tauvin,” ahin tin ahi.
3 And after they had fasted and prayed, they laid their hands on them and sent them off.
Chuin amahon an ngola taona hatah-a anei jouvun amani chunga chun khut angam un, ataopeh jouvun asoldoh tauvin ahi.
4 So Barnabas and Saul, sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia and sailed from there to Cyprus.
Chuin Barnabas le Saul chu Lhagao Theng in asoldoh lhon tan ahile, amani Seleucia kongkai muna achesuh lhon in chuin Cyprus twikol jon dingin konga atou lhon tan ahi.
5 When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. And John was with them as their helper.
Chuche muna Salamis khopi alhun hon phat in Judah te kikhop khomna hoa alut lhon in Pathen thu asamphong le hon tan ahi. Chule John Mark jong amani kithopi dingin akilhon uvin ahi.
6 They traveled through the whole island as far as Paphos, where they found a Jewish sorcerer and false prophet named Bar-Jesus,
Chuin amani twikol sung pumpi a chun khopi khat a kon in khopi khat ah avahle lhonin Paphos chan in achelhon in ahile hiche lai muna chun Bar-Yeshua kiti Judah mi doichoi le themgao lhemkhat akimupi lhon in ahi.
7 an attendant of the proconsul, Sergius Paulus. The proconsul, a man of intelligence, summoned Barnabas and Saul because he wanted to hear the word of God.
Chule amapa chu gamvaipo miching tah Sergius Paulus koma uma ahi. Chuin gamvaipo pa chun Pathen thu angai nom jeh chun Barnabas le Saul chu akou tan ahi.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for that is what his name means) opposed them and tried to turn the proconsul from the faith.
Ahinlah Elymas kiti doichoi mikhat ahung kikum lut in gamvaipo chun Barnabas le Saul thusei chu atahsan louna tei dingin hiche teni thusei hi ngaipeh hih in tin aseiyin ahi.
9 Then Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked directly at Elymas
Chuin Paul tiajong kihe Saul chu Lhagao Theng adimset in, chule aman doichoi mipa chu aven,
10 and said, “O child of the devil and enemy of all righteousness, you are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery! Will you never stop perverting the straight ways of the Lord?
“Nangma Diabol chapa, Jou le jona milhemlha, thilpha jouse dinga melma pa! Pathen lamdih a kona mihem puimang ding hi nangah louhel ding ham?
11 Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and for a time you will be blind and unable to see the light of the sun.” Immediately mist and darkness came over him, and he groped about, seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
Ven tun Pakai mijep na khut chu nachunga hung chu ding chule namit choding phat chomkhat khovah namulou ding ahitai.”
12 When the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, for he was astonished at the teaching about the Lord.
Hiche thilsoh chu gamvaipo chun amu phat in ama jong seijui ho lah a ajao tan ahi ajeh chu Pakai thudol thuhil chu kidang asah val jeng ahi.
13 After setting sail from Paphos, Paul and his companions came to Perga in Pamphylia, where John left them to return to Jerusalem.
Chuin Paul le alhon khompi ho chun Paphos dalhan Pamphylia jon dingin konga akitolun Perga muna akinga tauvin, chule hiche muna kon chun John Mark chu Jerusalem lama akile tan ahi.
14 And from Perga, they traveled inland to Pisidian Antioch, where they entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and sat down.
Ahin Paul le Barnabas vang chu keng lam in Pisidia gam'a Antioch chan achelhon in, chuin cholngah nikhon amani jong kikhom dingin kikhop khomna in ah alut lhon tan ahi.
15 After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the synagogue leaders sent word to them: “Brothers, if you have a word of encouragement for the people, please speak.”
Chuin angaiya Mose le Themgao lekhabu asim jouvun kikhopna-a lamkai hon amani koma chun “Sopi teni mipi ho tilkhouna dinga seinom nanei honle hung sei lhonin,” tin phat apeuvin ahi.
16 Paul stood up, motioned with his hand, and began to speak: “Men of Israel and you Gentiles who fear God, listen to me!
Chuin Paul ading doh in akhut alhang in mipi ho chu thipbeh cha-a um ding'in aseiyin, chuin aman aseitai, “Israel mite hole Pathen ging'ah chidang namdang teho, ngaiyuvin,
17 The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers. He made them into a great people during their stay in Egypt, and with an uplifted arm He led them out of that land.
Hiche Israel nampi Pathen chun ipu ipateu ana lhengdoh in Egypt gam'a chun apunsah uvin chule thahattah nampi khat in ahin semdoh tan ahi. Chuin athahat nan Egypt mite khut ah asoh chan nauva konin ahin huh doh in,”
18 He endured their conduct for about forty years in the wilderness.
Gamthip noiya kum somli jen ahin puiyin,
19 And having vanquished seven nations in Canaan, He gave their land to His people as an inheritance.
Chuin Canaan gamsunga nam sagi jen asumang in, agam sungu chu Israel ten aloding in apetan ahi.
20 All this took about 450 years. After this, God gave them judges until the time of Samuel the prophet.
Hiche thilsoh hi kum 450 sunga soh ahi. Chujouvin Israel chate chunga vaihom ding in Pathen thutan vaihom ho ana pen ama ho chun Samuel themgao pa khang chanin vai anahom un ahi.
21 Then the people asked for a king, and God gave them forty years under Saul son of Kish, from the tribe of Benjamin.
Chuin mipi chun leng ana thum'un, ahile Pathen in Benjamin phunga kon Kish chapa Saul chu ana pen ama chun kum somli lengvai anapon ahi.
22 After removing Saul, He raised up David as their king and testified about him: ‘I have found David son of Jesse a man after My own heart; he will carry out My will in its entirety.’
Ahin Pathen in Saul chu leng muna konin ana ladoh in David chu ana tung tan ahi. Pathen in David thudola hitin ana seiye “Keiman kalung gottah mi Jesse Chapa David kamutai, aman kalunggot jouse abol ding ahi” ati.
23 From the descendants of this man, God has brought to Israel the Savior Jesus, as He promised.
Chule Pathen in Israelte huhdoh dinga athutep Yeshua chu leng David insunga kon ahi.
24 Before the arrival of Jesus, John preached a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
Ama ahung masang in twilutsah John in Israel mipi jousen chonset lung aheiya Pathen koma akilekit uva chule twiya Baptize achanna dingu thu ana lhangsam in ahi.
25 As John was completing his course, he said, ‘Who do you suppose I am? I am not that One. But He is coming after me whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.’
Chuin John in atoh ding kin achaiphat in aman adong in “keihi Messiah nei hisah uham? Kahipoi! Ahin Ama hungvah ding ahi, chule keima akengchot khao sutlha a pang asolchah khat dinga jong lhing jou kahipoi.”
26 Brothers, children of Abraham, and you Gentiles who fear God, it is to us that this message of salvation has been sent.
Sopite, Abraham son ho le chidang namdang Pathen ging mite ho, Hiche huhhingna thuphahi eiho dinga hung kisol ahi.
27 The people of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize Jesus, yet in condemning Him they fulfilled the words of the prophets that are read every Sabbath.
Jerusalem mite le alamkai teuvin themgao hon Yeshua thudol aseiyu ahilam ahepouve. Chusang in themmo achanun hiche jeng jong hin cholngah niseh a themgao ho thucheng aguilhun sah ahi.
28 And though they found no ground for a death sentence, they asked Pilate to have Him executed.
Chule dan dung juiya tha nading themmo najong amu pouvin, ahin Pilate henga chun atha teitei nading in angeh un ahi.
29 When they had carried out all that was written about Him, they took Him down from the tree and laid Him in a tomb.
Chuin themgao vin achungchang thudol asei jouse aboljou soh phat un, thingpel chunga konin ala lhauvin lhanah alup sah tauvin ahi.
30 But God raised Him from the dead,
Ahivangin Pathen in thina-a konin akaithou kittai.
31 and for many days He was seen by those who had accompanied Him from Galilee to Jerusalem. They are now His witnesses to our people.
Chuin nikho phabep jouvin Galilee a kona Jerusalem lampia akilhon khompi ho henga ama akiphong in tun amaho Israel mite henga hettoh sah in apang uvin ahi.
32 And now we proclaim to you the good news: What God promised our fathers
Tunia keiho hiche laiya hi Pathen in ipu ipateu henga ana kitepna thupha choiya hung kahiuve.
33 He has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus. As it is written in the second Psalm: ‘You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.’
Chule hiche hi ason achilhah eiho jouse henga Pathen in Yeshua akaithou vanga aguilhunsah ahi. Hiche thudol hi Psalm lekhabu nina in hitin aseiyin ahi, “Nangma kachapa, tunin keima napa kahitai.”
34 In fact, God raised Him from the dead, never to see decay. As He has said: ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.’
Ajeh chu Pathen in lhana monlha bep ding hilouva thina-a kona kaithou dinga ana thutepsa ahi. Pathen in aseiyin, “David henga kakitepna phattheina kiselguh chu nangma kapeh ding nahi, ati.
35 So also, He says in another Psalm: ‘You will not let Your Holy One see decay.’
Psalm lekhabu dang khat'ah ahilchen be in, Nami theng chu lhan'a namon den sah lou ding ahi,” ati.
36 For when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep. His body was buried with his fathers and saw decay.
Chule hiche thuhi David aseina ahipoi, ajeh chu David chun ama khang sunga Pathen lunggot lam abol jouvin athi in apu apate toh akivui khomin chule atahsa jong amon mang tan ahi.
37 But the One whom God raised from the dead did not see decay.
Ahipoi! Hiche thuhi Pathen in atahsa mon mang louva akaithou midang khat kiseina ahi.
38 Therefore let it be known to you, brothers, that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.
Sopite ho, ngaiyun! Hiche Yeshua vanga chonset ngaidamna aum thudol lhangsama kahiuve.
39 Through Him everyone who believes is justified from everything you could not be justified from by the law of Moses.
Koi hijong le ama tahsan chan chu Pathen anga themchanga kisim ding ahi chule hiche hi Mose dan in aboltheipoi.
40 Watch out, then, that what was spoken by the prophets does not happen to you:
Chingtheiyun! Themgao thusei hohi nangho chunga chuh sah hih un, ajeh chu amahon hitin aseiyuve;
41 ‘Look, you scoffers, wonder and perish! For I am doing a work in your days that you would never believe, even if someone told you.’”
“Veuvin mi nuisat ho, kidang sauvin lang thidoh un, ajeh chu nangho phat laiyin thilkhat kabolin, hiche thil khat kabol chu mikhat in naheng uva ahung sei jong le natahsan pouve.” ati.
42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people urged them to continue this message on the next Sabbath.
Chuin Paul le Barnabas chu kikhopna in'a konin apotdoh lhonin ahile mipi chun akham uvin hapta kit le asei lhon jouse avelsei kit lhon dingin angeh-un ahi.
43 After the synagogue was dismissed, many of the Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who spoke to them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.
Chuin Judah mi tamtah le hougut Judah houva lut mitampi chun Paul le Barnabas chu ajui tauvin ahile amanin amaho chu Pathen milungsetna a umdet jing ding in atil khou lhon tan ahi.
44 On the following Sabbath, nearly the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.
Chuin a-hapta kit in khopi sunga mipi atamjo Pathen thungai ding in ahung khomun ahi.
45 But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy, and they blasphemously contradicted what Paul was saying.
Ahin Judah mi abang chun mipi chu aveu vin ahile athangse uvin, hijeh chun Paul thusei jouse chu anelkal un ahi.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas answered them boldly: “It was necessary to speak the word of God to you first. But since you reject it and do not consider yourselves worthy of eternal life, we now turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
Chuin Paul le Barnabas chun hangsan tah in alhangsam lhonin asei lhon tai, “Nangho Judah te henga Pathen thu kalhangsap masah lhon ding hi ngaikhoh ahi, ahin nanghon napampai uva, nangho le nanghon tonsot hinna changdia lomlouva thu nakitan tah jeh un, chidang namdang te henga kache lhon ding ahitai. (aiōnios g166)
47 For this is what the Lord has commanded us: ‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles, to bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’”
Ajeh chu Pathen in, ‘vannoi leiset pumpia huhhing na thupole dinga, chidang namdang te lah-a vah'a kasem lhon nahi,’ atia chu chidang namdang te lah a eisol lhon ahitai,” ati lhon e.
48 When the Gentiles heard this, they rejoiced and glorified the word of the Lord, and all who were appointed for eternal life believed. (aiōnios g166)
Chuin chidang namdang ten hiche thu ajah phat un hapan akipah in Pakai athangvah un chule tonsot hina chang dinga kilhengdoh ho jouse chu seijui in apang tauvin ahi. (aiōnios g166)
49 And the word of the Lord spread throughout that region.
Chuin hiche gamkai sung se achun Pathen thu chu akithe jal tan ahi.
50 The Jews, however, incited the religious women of prominence and the leading men of the city. They stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas and drove them out of their district.
Chuin Judah techun hougut numei ho le khopi sunga lamkai ho chu atil seuvin Paul le Barnabas chu khopi sunga konin adel mang sah tauvin ahi.
51 So they shook the dust off their feet in protest against them and went to Iconium.
Chuin amanin apampai lhon vetsahnan akenglhona khobon athing lha lhonin Iconium ajon lhon tan ahi.
52 And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
Chule Seijui ho chu kipana le Lhagao vin adimset tauvin ahi.
