Acts 14
1 At Iconium, Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish synagogue, where they spoke so well that a great number of Jews and Greeks believed.
Ikoniha pi acukba thawnki, Pawluh ja Banabah cun Ikonih khaw sinakoka lut ni lü ngthu pyen ni se, Judahe ja khyangmjükce khawha naw jumei lawki he.
2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers.
Acunsepi, am jumei hlükiea Judahe naw khyangmjükcee jah ksük u lü, ami cun ami jah hnengsak.
3 So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who affirmed the message of His grace by enabling them to perform signs and wonders.
Acunakyase, Bawipa üng lingnak am ngthu pyen ni lü, acua khawvei ve ni se, Bawipa naw müncamnak ja cäi phyaki he cun ani kut am jah pawhsak lü, a bänaka ngthu a jah ksingsak.
4 The people of the city were divided. Some sided with the Jews, and others with the apostles.
Acunsepi, acuna khaw üngkae cun ngpai u lü, avang cun Judahea phäh, avang naw angsä xawia phäh kyaki.
5 But when the Gentiles and Jews, together with their rulers, set out to mistreat and stone them,
Acunüng, khyangmjükcee, Judahe ja ami ngvaie naw angsä xawi cun ani hmai se khaia jah pawh u lü, lung am ami jah vawi vaia ami bü law üng,
6 they found out about it and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding region,
acun ksingei law ni lü, Luhkonih mlüh üng Luhtarah ja Derbe ngnam ja a peia ngnamea dawngki xawi.
7 where they continued to preach the gospel.
Acua thangkdaw cun sang hü laihlaihki xawi.
8 In Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was lame from birth and had never walked.
Luhtarah khawa a hmi law üng tün lü a khaw xokia khyang, am cit hü theiki mat veki.
9 This man was listening to the words of Paul, who looked intently at him and saw that he had faith to be healed.
Acuna khyang naw Pawluha a ngthu pyen ngai se, acunüng, Pawluh naw ani cun bükteng kyet lü a dawnak be vaia jumnak taki ti ksingki naw,
10 In a loud voice Paul called out, “Stand up on your feet!” And the man jumped up and began to walk.
angsanga, “Na khaw am angsunga ngdüi lawa” ti se, ani cun ngtawp law lü, cit lawki.
11 When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices in the Lycaonian language: “The gods have come down to us in human form!”
Khyange naw Pawluha a bilaw hmu u lü, Luhkonih khyü üng, angsanga ngpyang lü, “Mhname cun nghngicima mäiha mi veia kyum law ve u!” ami ti.
12 Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.
Banabah cun, “Zutah” tia sui u lü, Pawluh cun ngthu pyenki kyase, “Harmes” tia ami sui.
13 The priest of Zeus, whose temple was just outside the city, brought bulls and wreaths to the city gates, hoping to offer a sacrifice along with the crowds.
Acuna khaw peia vekia Zutah mhnama ktaiyü naw mlüh kpung üngkhyüh se ja paipaie cun luhnaka mkawt peia jah lawpüi lü khyange am ngsä xawia phäh ngkengtainak vaia pawh khaiea ngtängkie.
14 But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul found out about this, they tore their clothes and rushed into the crowd, shouting,
Acunsepi, Banabah ja Pawluh naw, acun ani ksing law ja, ani suisak ja ktek ni lü, khyangea ksunga dawng ni lü ngpyangki xawi naw,
15 “Men, why are you doing this? We too are only men, human like you. We are bringing you good news that you should turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea and everything in them.
“Khyange aw, hin hin ivai nami pawhki ni? Keini pi nangmia mäiha nghngicima kani kyaki ni; nangmi naw amdange jah hawih u lü, mce ja khankhaw, tui acunüng veki naküt jah mhnün lü, anglät se xüngkia Pamhnama veia nami nghlat lawnak vaia thangkdaw kani ning jah mtheh lawki ni.
16 In past generations, He let all nations go their own way.
Acuna Pamhnam naw ajana khyang naküt amimäta lam üng cit khaiea a jah tüih,
17 Yet He has not left Himself without testimony to His goodness: He gives you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.”
acunsepi, nami khana abänak am eiawk phübe u lü nami jekyai vaia, khankhawa ka naw khaw ak lawsak lü kthiktheih yawpaia dawnak khawkum a ning jah pet ni. Acuna Pamhnam veki tia ngsingsaki” tia ani pyen.
18 Even with these words, Paul and Barnabas could hardly stop the crowds from sacrificing to them.
Acukba pyen lü ami ngkengtainak vaia ami hnim hlü cun ngyan üng ani jah pyaisak.
19 Then some Jews arrived from Antioch and Iconium and won over the crowds. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, presuming he was dead.
Acunsepi, Antiok mlüh, pisidih hne ja Ikonih mlüh üngka Judahe avang acua law hngakie naw, khyange jah ksük u se; acuna Pawluh cun lung üng ami khawng, thikia sui u lü mlüh kpunga jäk u lü ami cehpüi.
20 But after the disciples had gathered around him, he got up and went back into the city. And the next day he left with Barnabas for Derbe.
Acunsepi, jumeikie naw ami kcung law ja, Pawluh cun tho law lü mlüh k'uma cit beki. A ngawi üng, ani cun Banabah am Derbe khawa citki.
21 They preached the gospel to that city and made many disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch,
Acuna hne üng thangkdaw pyen ni lü, axüisawe khawha ani jah yah käna, Luhtarah, Ikonih ja, Pisidih hne, Antiok mlüha nghlat be ni lü,
22 strengthening the souls of the disciples and encouraging them to continue in the faith. “We must endure many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said.
“Khuikhatnak khawhah khamei lü, Pamhnama pe mi lut khaia kya kungki” tia, jumeikiea mlung ja khängsak ni lü, jumeinak üng ami khängcek vaia ani ja mcäi.
23 Paul and Barnabas appointed elders for them in each church, praying and fasting as they entrusted them to the Lord, in whom they had believed.
Sangcim naküt üng ngvaie jah mcawn pet ni lü, ei jeih u lü ami ktaiyü law päng üng Bawipa ami ümnak vaia ami jah mtheh.
24 After passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
Pisidih hne avan üng cit hü ni lü, Pampulih hnea phaki xawi.
25 And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.
Parkah khawa ngthu ani sang päng üng, Ataliha citki xawi.
26 From Attalia they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work they had just completed.
Acunüngka naw mlawng am cit ni lü, Antiok pha law beki xawi, acun cun ani bilawh binak üng Pamhnama mpyeneinak ani yah vaia jah ap ni lü ami jah tüihnaka khawa kyaki.
27 When they arrived, they gathered the church together and reported all that God had done through them, and how He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
Antiok ani pha ja sangcime jah ngkhämsak ni lü Pamhnam naw jah summangei lü khut ani bi naküte ja, khyangmjükcee phäha pi jumnaka ksawh a mhmawnga mawng cun ani jah mtheh.
28 And they spent a long time there with the disciples.
Acunüng, jumeikiea veia khawvei veki xawi.
